Broadcom named strategic vendor for Walmart virtualization solutions
DALLAS - Vivakor Inc. (NASDAQ:VIVK), a company specializing in energy transportation, storage, and remediation services, has reported a positive outlook for 2025 following a year of expansion and acquisitions. The Dallas-based firm, currently valued at approximately $43 million in market capitalization, ended 2024 with a projected annual revenue run-rate exceeding $160 million, marking the highest level of contracted revenue in its history. The company has demonstrated strong top-line growth, with revenue increasing by 51.4% in the last twelve months according to InvestingPro data.
In 2024, Vivakor completed the acquisition of the Endeavor Entities, which included Endeavor Crude, LLC and several other subsidiaries, significantly expanding its fleet of oilfield services. This acquisition, along with the successful integration and consolidation of operations, is expected to contribute to sustainable earnings growth and increased shareholder value. However, InvestingPro analysis reveals challenges, including a significant debt burden of $80.24 million and a concerning current ratio of 0.11, indicating potential liquidity constraints.
The company also finished the expansion of its Omega Pipeline System in Oklahoma ahead of schedule and under budget. This expansion is anticipated to boost customer volumes connected to the oil production area. Additionally, Vivakor’s environmental services division achieved a milestone with the completion of factory acceptance tests for its Remediation Processing Center (RPC) in Houston, Texas, moving closer to commercial operation.
Vivakor’s CEO, James Ballengee, expressed satisfaction with the company’s performance and its diversified infrastructure assets, which include midstream logistics, gathering and storage, and environmental services. The company’s technology has been recognized as the only approved RPC by the Kuwait Oil Company for reducing oil concentration in soil to below 0.5%.
Looking forward, Vivakor aims to continue its growth through organic development and further acquisitions, maintaining a strong focus on financial responsibility and operational efficiency. According to InvestingPro Fair Value analysis, the stock appears to be slightly undervalued at current levels.

The company has formed a new business unit, Vivakor Supply & Trading, to support operations and diversify revenue streams through petroleum marketing activities. This move is intended to complement the activities of the Endeavor Entities and manage market risk at Vivakor’s facilities.
Vivakor’s forward-looking statements are based on current management expectations and are subject to business, economic, and competitive uncertainties. The company cautions that actual results and the timing of events may differ from anticipated outcomes.
