Antero Resources Announces Second Quarter 2024
Financial and Operating Results
Denver,
Colorado, July 31, 2024—Antero Resources Corporation (NYSE: AR) (“Antero Resources,” “Antero,”
or the “Company”) today announced its second quarter 2024 financial and operating results. The relevant unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements are included in Antero Resources’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30,
2024.
Second Quarter
2024 Highlights:
| · | Net production averaged 3.4 Bcfe/d, an increase of 1% from the year ago period |
| o | Natural gas production averaged 2.1 Bcf/d, a decline of 4% from the year ago period |
| o | Liquids production averaged 212 MBbl/d, an increase of 10% from the year ago period and which now represents
37% of total production |
| · | Realized a pre-hedge natural gas equivalent price of $2.98 per Mcfe, a $1.09 per Mcfe premium to NYMEX
pricing that averaged $1.89 per MMBtu |
| · | Net loss was $66 million, Adjusted Net Loss was $60 million (Non-GAAP) |
| · | Adjusted EBITDAX was $151 million (Non-GAAP); net cash provided by operating activities was $143 million |
| · | Averaged a record 11.9 completion stages per day in the quarter, including a monthly record of 12.8
stages per day during the month of May |
| · | Averaged a record of over 18,000 lateral feet per well for completed wells during the quarter, 16%
above the prior quarterly record |
| · | Recorded second highest production rate per well for a pad in company history, averaging 37 MMcfe/d
per well over 60 days |
| · | Achieved investment grade rating following upgrade from S&P and entered into new unsecured credit
facility |
| · | Published Antero’s 7th Annual ESG Report highlighting Antero’s economic contributions
to its communities of $1 billion in 2023 and a reduction in methane intensity by 78% and a reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions
by 59% since 2019 |
2024 Full-Year Guidance Updates:
| · | Increasing production guidance range to 3.375 to 3.425 Bcfe/d driven by higher liquids volumes |
| o | Increase is despite deferring the turn in line of a five well drilled but uncompleted pad until the
end of this year from the third quarter previously |
| · | Increasing C3+ NGL realized price guidance to a range of $1.00 to $2.00 per barrel premium to Mont
Belvieu pricing, which is expected to increase annual Free Cash Flow by approximately $60 million relative to initial NGL pricing guidance |
Paul Rady, Chairman, CEO and President of Antero
Resources commented, “During the second quarter we continued to deliver strong capital efficiency results. We set a new quarterly
completion record of nearly 12 stages per day. These faster completion times have reduced our cycle times to approximately 140 days in
2024, a dramatic reduction of 67% from just five years ago. Looking ahead, we plan to defer turning in line a drilled but uncompleted
pad until the end of the year given current natural gas pricing. Despite this activity deferral, we increased our full year 2024 production
guidance for the second consecutive quarter as we continue to see strong capital efficiency gains and well performance.”
Michael Kennedy, CFO of Antero Resources said,
“Our quarterly financial results continue to benefit from our significant exposure to liquids prices. Although natural gas production
was down 4% from the year ago period, our liquids production increased 10% year-over-year, and now represents a record high 56% of our
total revenue. This increase in liquids production drove 34% Adjusted EBITDAX growth from the prior year period, despite natural gas prices
being down 10% over that time. In 2024, we made a strategic decision to increase C3+ NGL exposure to spot international prices where spreads
have increased to near record levels. Antero’s unconstrained access to international markets allows us to capture premiums to Mont
Belvieu and leads us to an additional increase in C3+ NGL pricing guidance for this year.”
Mr. Kennedy continued, “Antero’s
upgrade to an investment grade credit rating reflects our industry low maintenance capital requirements and our commitment to debt reduction
over the last several years. As a result of the capital efficiency gains, we were able to reduce our maintenance capital requirement by
over $200 million in 2024. Additionally, we have reduced debt by more than $2 billion since the start of our debt reduction program in
late 2019. We believe this peer-leading capital efficiency drives the lowest breakeven costs and positions Antero Resources as the premier
operator in Appalachia.”
For a discussion of the non-GAAP financial
measures including Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDAX, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
2024 Guidance Update
Antero is increasing its full year 2024 production
guidance to 3.375 to 3.425 Bcfe/d, an increase at the midpoint of 25 MMcfe/d. The higher than expected volumes are driven by stronger
well performance, higher liquids volumes and capital efficiency gains.
Antero is increasing its full year 2024 C3+ NGL
realized price guidance to a range of $1.00 to $2.00 per barrel premium to Mont Belvieu, up from the previous guidance of a premium of
$0.00 to $1.00 per barrel. This increase in NGL realized price guidance reflects higher expected realizations from take-in-kind transactions,
primarily through more exposure to premium international prices during 2024. Antero has firm transportation capacity to sell its propane
and butane at the Marcus Hook Export Terminal in Philadelphia, PA. Antero entered into transactions during the second quarter at prices
greater than a $0.10 per gallon premium to Mont Belvieu and this premium has further increased in the third quarter. This increasing premium
reflects tight Gulf Coast export capacity and continued strong international demand out of Marcus Hook.

All-in
cash expense, which includes lease operating, gathering, compression, processing and transportation, production and ad valorem taxes was
$2.36 per Mcfe in the second quarter, as compared to $2.35 per Mcfe average during the second quarter of 2023. Lower transportation expense
was offset by higher gathering, compression and processing costs primarily related to CPI-based adjustments in 2024. Net marketing
expense was $0.07 per Mcfe in the second quarter, unchanged from the $0.07 per Mcfe during the second quarter of 2023. The increase in
net marketing expense from the first quarter of 2024 was related to higher unutilized expense during the second quarter of 2024 related
to maintenance on a third-party long-haul pipeline, which has since been completed. The company continues to forecast annual net marketing
expense to be in the range of $0.04 to $0.06 per Mcfe.
Second
Quarter 2024 Operating Results
Antero placed 11 horizontal Marcellus wells to
sales during the second quarter with an average lateral length of 18,172 feet.
Highlights:
| · | A six well pad had the second highest 60-day rate in company history, averaging 37 MMcfe/d per well with
approximately 2,044 Bbl/d of liquids assuming 25% ethane recovery. These wells have an average lateral length of 16,750 feet. |
| · | A five well pad had a 60-day rate averaging 34 MMcfe/d per well with approximately 2,103 Bbl/d of liquids
assuming 25% ethane recovery. These wells have an average lateral length of 19,878 feet. |
Second Quarter 2024 Capital Investment
Antero’s
drilling and completion capital expenditures for the three months ended June 30, 2024, were $164 million. The Company continues
to forecast total drilling and completion capital in 2024 to be in the range of $650 to $700 million. In addition to capital invested
in drilling and completion activities, the Company invested $21 million in land during the second quarter. During the quarter, Antero
added approximately 3,500 net acres, representing 13 incremental drilling locations at an average cost of approximately $750,000 per location.
The company continues to forecast total land capital in 2024 to be in the range of $75 million to $100 million.
Investment Grade Rating and New Credit Facility
On
May 15, 2024, S&P upgraded Antero’s corporate and issuer credit ratings to BBB- from BB+ with a stable outlook. The Company
has maintained an investment grade credit rating from Fitch Ratings since September of 2022. On July 30, 2024, Antero
entered into a new unsecured credit facility with lender commitments of $1.65 billion. With the investment grade rating, letters of credit
were reduced from $443 million to $120 million. Antero expects interest expense to decrease by $15 million on an annual basis and realized
over $350 million of increased liquidity as a result of the upgrade.
2023 ESG Report Highlights
On July 31, 2024, Antero published its 2023
ESG Report, marking the Company's 7th year reporting on its environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance. This year’s

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
Adjusted
Net Income (Loss) as set forth in this release represents net income (loss), adjusted for certain items. Antero believes that Adjusted
Net Income (Loss) is useful to investors in evaluating operational trends of the Company and its performance relative to other oil and
gas producing companies. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) as an indicator of financial performance. The GAAP measure most directly comparable
to Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is net income (loss). The following table reconciles net loss to Adjusted Net Loss (in thousands):

Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow is a measure of financial performance
not calculated under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash flow from operating, investing, or financing
activities, as an indicator of cash flow or as a measure of liquidity. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating
activities, less net cash used in investing activities, which includes drilling and completion capital and leasehold capital, plus payments
for derivative monetization, less proceeds from asset sales or derivative monetization and less distributions to non-controlling interests
in Martica.
The Company has not provided projected net cash
provided by operating activities or a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to projected net cash provided by operating activities, the most
comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company is unable to project net cash provided by operating activities
for any future period because this metric includes the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities related to the timing of
cash receipts and disbursements that may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred. The Company is unable to
project these timing differences with any reasonable degree of accuracy without unreasonable efforts.
Free Cash Flow is a useful indicator of the Company’s
ability to internally fund its activities, service or incur additional debt and estimate our ability to return capital to shareholders.
There are significant limitations to using Free Cash Flow as a measure of performance, including the inability to analyze the effect of
certain recurring and non-recurring items that materially affect the Company’s net income, the lack of comparability of results
of operations of different companies and the different methods of calculating Free Cash Flow reported by different companies. Free Cash
Flow does not represent funds available for discretionary use because those funds may be required for debt service, land acquisitions
and lease renewals, other capital expenditures, working capital, income taxes, exploration expenses, and other commitments and obligations.
Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP financial measure
that we define as net income (loss), adjusted for certain items detailed below.
Adjusted EBITDAX as used and defined by us, may
not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies and is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance
with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income or loss, net income or loss,
cash flows provided by operating, investing, and financing activities, or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance
with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAX provides no information regarding our capital structure, borrowings, interest costs, capital expenditures,
working capital movement, or tax position. Adjusted EBITDAX does not represent funds available for discretionary use because those funds
may be required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital, income taxes, exploration expenses, and other commitments and
obligations. However, our management team believes Adjusted EBITDAX is useful to an investor in evaluating our financial performance because
this measure:
| · | is widely used by investors in the oil and natural gas industry to measure operating performance without
regard to items excluded from the calculation of such term, which may vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting
methods and the book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors; |
| · | helps investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to
period by removing the effect of our capital and legal structure from our operating structure; |
| · | is used by our management team for various purposes, including as a measure of our operating performance,
in presentations to our Board of Directors, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting: and |
| · | is used by our Board of Directors as a performance measure in determining executive compensation. |
There are significant limitations to using Adjusted
EBITDAX as a measure of performance, including the inability to analyze the effects of certain recurring and non-recurring items that
materially affect our net income or loss, the lack of comparability of results of operations of different companies, and the different
methods of calculating Adjusted EBITDAX reported by different companies.
The GAAP measures most directly comparable to
Adjusted EBITDAX are net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities. The following table represents a reconciliation
of Antero’s net income (loss), including noncontrolling interest, to Adjusted EBITDAX and a reconciliation of Antero’s Adjusted
EBITDAX to net cash provided by operating activities per our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, in each case, for the three
months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 (in thousands). Adjusted EBITDAX also excludes the noncontrolling interests in Martica, and these
adjustments are disclosed in the table below as Martica related adjustments.

| (1) | Production volumes exclude volumes related to VPP transaction. |
| (2) | Oil and NGLs production was converted at 6 Mcf per Bbl to calculate total Bcfe production and per Mcfe amounts. This ratio is an estimate
of the equivalent energy content of the products and may not reflect their relative economic value. |
| (3) | Average sales prices shown in the table reflect both the before and after effects of the Company’s settled commodity derivatives.
The calculation of such after effects includes gains on settlements of commodity derivatives, which do not qualify for hedge accounting
because the Company does not designate or document them as hedges for accounting purposes. Oil and NGLs production was converted at 6
Mcf per Bbl to calculate total Bcfe production and per Mcfe amounts. This ratio is an estimate of the equivalent energy content of the
products and does not necessarily reflect their relative economic value. |
| (4) | The average realized price for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 includes $1 million and $0.1 million, respectively,
of proceeds related to a take-or-pay contract. Excluding the effect of these proceeds, the average realized price for ethane before and
after the effects of derivatives for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 would have been $7.65 per Bbl and $8.41 per Bbl,
respectively. |
