Meet WhiteHawk Energy

‍

WhiteHawk Energy is a leading player in mineral and royalty interests, covering over 1,050,000 gross unit acres in the Marcellus and Haynesville Shales. By focusing on mineral ownership rather than operations, WhiteHawk maximizes free cash flow across commodity price cycles.

‍

WhiteHawk’s journey began with its CEO Daniel Herz, a highly experienced oil & gas and minerals executive, who decided to build a new kind of energy investment vehicle from scratch. PhiCap’s involvement was fundamental from day one.

‍

Some of the main challenges we faced included:

• Defining how to best acquire and scale mineral interests
• Raising significant funds to build a large, sustainable asset base
• Establishing operational leadership that allowed for full-scale business execution, not just financial oversight

Assembling the Pieces to a Successful Enterprise

The story of WhiteHawk Energy is unique for many reasons. But one of the most important reasons starts on page one, with PhiCap serving as both co-founders and equity partners who today stay actively shaping its growth.

From Startup to Powerhouse: WhiteHawk’s Rapid Rise in Energy Royalties

‍

In just a short time, WhiteHawk Energy has grown from zero to over $200 million in mineral interests, with PhiCap providing the financial leadership to drive rapid, strategic expansion. By streamlining the fundraising process, each successive deal has become easier to execute, laying the foundation for long-term scalability and a clear path to multi-billion-dollar growth.

‍

With PhiCap’s continued leadership, WhiteHawk is poised to expand its mineral holdings, scale operations beyond $1 billion, and explore adjacent royalty and energy investment opportunities to unlock additional investor value. Still, we’re not just an advisor. We’re part of the business. In the minerals and royalties space, bigger is better, and PhiCap ensures WhiteHawk is positioned for sustained, scalable success. Every capital raise builds momentum, reinforcing WhiteHawk’s trajectory toward market dominance. What started as an idea is now an industry leader. And we helped make it happen.
