What Phoenix Energy does

Phoenix Energy One, LLC is a US-based oil and gas exploration and production company headquartered in Irvine, California, founded in 2019 (originally as Phoenix Capital Group Holdings, LLC). The company executes a three-pronged strategy: (1) acquisition of mineral rights, leasehold interests, and overriding/perpetual royalty interests; (2) non-operated working interest acquisitions; and (3) operated drilling via wholly-owned subsidiary Phoenix Operating, launched in 2023 with primary focus on the Bakken/Three Forks in the Williston Basin of North Dakota and Montana. Interests span 7,000+ gross wells across 9 U.S. states and 5 basins (Williston, Permian, Powder River, Uintah, DJ), with ~35,000 bopd of production (November 2025) and a stated plan to reach 40,000 bopd by bringing 96 additional wells online over the next twelve months.

Revenue is generated from three streams: crude oil and natural gas production sales (Q1 2026 revenue $298.7M, up 158% YoY), recurring mineral/royalty income, and—distinctively for a small-cap E&P—the retail sale of corporate debt securities. The capital-raising program comprises a Regulation D Rule 506(c) Private Placement (accredited investors, $25K minimum, 9-13% rates, 1-11 year terms), an SEC-registered Form S-1 bond offering (open to all investors in all 50 states since September 30, 2025, $5K minimum, 9-12% rates), and Adamantium Capital, LLC subsidiary-issued debt. Cumulatively, Phoenix has raised $700M+ from retail investors and paid $266.9M in interest to 6,970+ bondholders inception through March 31, 2026. In September 2025 the company completed a Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share IPO on NYSE American (ticker PHXE.P), raising ~$54M gross proceeds from ~2.7 million shares at $20; common shares remain privately held by the Ferrari-family-controlled Phoenix Equity Holdings, LLC.

The technology stack centers on a proprietary investor/bondholder portal (invest.phoenixenergy.com, serving 6,970+ users, upgraded March 2026 with a newsfeed), an in-house software engineering team, a Strategic Asset Targeting Engine for mineral-rights acquisition analysis, GIS and reservoir engineering functions, and an Operations Data Engineer role supporting drilling and production decisions. Phoenix Operating has set multiple Bakken drilling records, including the longest 4-mile lateral at 20,797.5 ft (Nystuen 20-17-8-5-1H) and the fastest-drilled 4-mile lateral at 9.29 days (Willow Gray). Distribution is direct-to-consumer through the investor portal and a Capital Markets inside sales team, supplemented by broker-dealer partners Crescent Securities (debt), Dalmore (Adamantium), and My IPO (preferred shares).

Core offering

Phoenix Energy is an oil and gas exploration and production company that operates across the Williston, Powder River, DJ, Permian, and Uintah Basins through three integrated verticals: direct drilling and production via its Phoenix Operating subsidiary, acquisition of mineral rights and royalty interests, and non-operated working interests in 7,000+ gross wells across nine U.S. states. The company finances much of its growth by issuing high-yield corporate bonds (9-13% annual interest) directly to retail and accredited investors, supported by an in-house bondholder portal and a publicly traded Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share class on NYSE American (PHXE.P).

Product overview

Phoenix Energy One, LLC operates as a vertically integrated oil and gas company with a platform-plus-modules architecture spanning three core business divisions: (1) Mineral Rights Acquisitions, (2) Phoenix Operating (its wholly-owned drilling and production subsidiary launched in 2023 focused on the Williston, Powder River, and DJ Basins), and (3) investment offerings including Private Placement Bond Offerings, the SEC-registered Registered Bond Offering, the Adamantium Capital subsidiary-issued Adamantium Offering, and publicly traded Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares (NYSE American: PHXE.P). The company's offerings are supported by an in-house Bondholder Portal at invest.phoenixenergy.com (which also handles preferred share investor administration), and an investor-facing Production Statistics Dashboard on the corporate site that transparently shares well-level drilling performance metrics from Phoenix Operating's Bakken operations.

Direct peers

• Chord Energy: Mid-cap US E&P formed from the Whiting Petroleum / Oasis Petroleum merger; one of the largest pure-play Bakken operators with extensive Williston Basin acreage, directly comparable to Phoenix Energy on basin focus and scale class.
• Continental Resources: Largest operator in the Bakken/Three Forks play and a pioneer of extended-lateral drilling; directly comparable to Phoenix Energy on Williston Basin operating strategy, drilling-record culture, and founder/family-controlled governance.
• EOG Resources: Large-cap US E&P with material Bakken position alongside Permian and Eagle Ford operations; directly comparable to Phoenix Energy on extended-lateral drilling leadership and premium-acreage strategy, though at materially larger scale.
• Civitas Resources: Mid-cap US E&P with primary operations in the DJ Basin (a key Phoenix Energy basin) plus Permian exposure; comparable on basin overlap, drilling-program approach, and growth-via-acquisition history.
• Murphy Oil: Mid-cap US E&P with multi-basin onshore operations and a focus on extended-lateral drilling efficiency; comparable to Phoenix Energy on scale, basin diversification, and capital-discipline approach.

Broad incumbents

• Devon Energy: Large-cap diversified US E&P with a meaningful Bakken position alongside Delaware Basin, Eagle Ford, and Anadarko assets; broader in scope than Phoenix Energy, but a relevant benchmark for operational scale and capital allocation.
• Diamondback Energy: Large-cap Permian-focused US E&P; comparable to Phoenix Energy on extended-lateral drilling excellence and inventory-driven growth, though concentrated in the Permian rather than the Williston.
• ConocoPhillips: Largest US independent E&P with a Lower 48 portfolio including the Bakken; the gold-standard public E&P for capital returns and operational execution, and a relevant peer for Phoenix Energy's growth trajectory.
• Chevron: Super-major that recently acquired Hess Corporation, gaining direct Bakken exposure; relevant as a scaled, publicly listed Bakken competitor and a benchmark for institutional capital access that Phoenix Energy's preferred-share structure does not yet match.

Emerging players

• Granite Ridge Resources: Small-cap US E&P spun off from Marathon Oil in 2022 with material Bakken/Delaware exposure; comparable to Phoenix Energy as a non-operated working interest and mineral-rights acquirer at smaller scale, with a similar focus on capital-efficient returns.
