Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

Range Resources Corporation ("Range" or "the Company") is an independent natural gas, natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and oil (predominately condensate referred to herein as "oil") company engaged in the exploration, development and acquisition of natural gas and liquids properties in the Appalachian region of the United States.

During interim periods, the Company follows the same accounting policies disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on February 25, 2025 (the "Form 10-K"), except for any new accounting pronouncements adopted during the interim period. These consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and information presented in the Form 10-K. In management's opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

We make certain reclassifications to the prior year statements to conform with the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on previously reported stockholders' equity, net income or cash flows.

(2) REVENUES FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Disaggregation of Revenue

All of the Company's revenues from contracts with customers have title transfer in the United States ("U.S.") and are recognized at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer and collectibility is reasonably assured. Accounts receivable attributable to our revenue contracts with customers was $326.5 million at March 31, 2025 and $291.5 million at December 31, 2024. Revenue attributable to each of our identified revenue streams is disaggregated below (in thousands):

Total$846,328$595,832

(3)INCOME TAXES

We evaluate and update our annual effective income tax rate on a quarterly basis based on current and forecasted operating results and tax laws. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our overall effective tax rate was different than the federal statutory rate due primarily to tax credits, state income taxes and equity compensation. Current income taxes reflect estimated state and federal income taxes due for 2025 which are based on our estimated earnings, taking into account all applicable tax rates and laws.

(4)NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

The following sets forth a reconciliation of net income to basic net income attributable to common shareholders to diluted net income attributable to common shareholders (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Three Months EndedMarch 31,
20252024
Net income, as reported$97,052$92,138
Participating earnings (a)(299)(600)
Basic net income attributed to common shareholders96,75391,538
Reallocation of participating earnings (a)24
Diluted net income attributed to common shareholders$96,755$91,542
Net income per common share:
Basic$0.40$0.38
Diluted$0.40$0.38

(a)

Restricted Stock Liability Awards (discussed in Note 9) represent participating securities because they participate in non-forfeitable dividends or distributions with common equity owners. Income allocable to participating securities represents the distributed and undistributed earnings attributable to the participating securities. Participating securities, however, do not participate in undistributed net losses.

The following details weighted average common shares outstanding and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding (in thousands):

Three Months EndedMarch 31,
20252024
Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic240,035240,505
Effect of dilutive securities:
Director and employee restricted stock and performance-based equity awards1,7201,901
Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted241,755242,406

Weighted average common shares outstanding–basic for first quarter 2025 excludes 741,000 shares of restricted stock held in our deferred compensation plan compared to 1.6 million shares in first quarter 2024 (although all awards are issued and outstanding upon grant). For the three months ended March 31, 2025, equity grants of 245,000 shares compared to 127,000 shares in the same period of the prior year were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted net income because the grant prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares and would be anti-dilutive to the computation.

(5) INDEBTEDNESS

We had the following debt outstanding as of the dates shown below (in thousands):

(a)

As of March 31, 2025, current maturities include $606.5 million principal amount of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 ($606.4 million net of deferred financing costs). We expect to repay the current maturities with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the credit facility.

No interest was capitalized during thethree months ended March 31, 2025 or the year ended December 31, 2024. We were in compliance with applicable covenants under the bank credit facility and its senior notes at March 31, 2025.

Bank Debt

In April 2022, we entered into an amended and restated revolving bank facility, which we refer to as our bank debt or our bank credit facility, which is secured by substantially all of our assets and has a maturity date of April 14, 2027. The bank credit facility provides for a maximum facility amount of$4.0 billion and an initial borrowing base of$3.0 billion. The bank credit facility also provides for a borrowing base subject to re-determinations, including event-driven unscheduled re-determinations. As of March 31, 2025, our bank group was composed ofseventeen financial institutions. The borrowing base may be increased or decreased based on our request and sufficient proved reserves, as determined by the bank group. The commitment amount may be increased to the borrowing base, subject to payment of a mutually acceptable commitment fee to those banks agreeing to participate in the facility increase. Borrowings under the bank credit facility can either be at the alternate base rate (ABR, as defined in the bank credit facility agreement) plus a spread ranging from 0.75% to 1.75% or at the secured overnight financing rate (SOFR, as defined in the bank credit facility agreement) plus a spread ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%. The applicable spread is dependent upon borrowings relative to the borrowing base. We may elect, from time to time, to convert all or any part of our SOFR loans to base rate loans or to convert all or any part of the base rate loans to SOFR loans. A commitment fee is paid on the undrawn balance based on an annual rate of 0.375% to 0.50%. At March 31, 2025, the commitment fee was 0.375% and the interest rate margin was 0.75% on our ABR loans and 1.75% on our SOFR loans.

As part of our re-determination completed in March 2025, our borrowing base was reaffirmed at$3.0 billion and our bank commitment was also reaffirmed at$1.5 billion. On March 31, 2025, we hadno outstanding borrowings on our bank credit facility. We had$164.1 million of undrawn letters of credit, leaving$1.3 billion of committed borrowing capacity available under the facility.

Senior Note Redemptions

If we experience a change of control, noteholders may require us to repurchase all or a portion of our senior notes at 101% of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. We currently intend to retire our outstanding long-term debt as it matures, is callable or when market conditions are favorable to repurchase through privately negotiated transactions, open market repurchases, redemptions or otherwise.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we repurchased in the open market $2.2 million principal amount of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 at a discount. We recognized a $3,000 gain on early extinguishment of debt for these transactions, net of remaining deferred financing costs on the repurchased debt. During thethree months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased in the open market $15.1 million principal amount of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 at a discount. We recognized a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $64,000, net of the remaining deferred financing costs on the repurchased debt.

Guarantees

Range is a holding company that owns no operating assets and has no significant operations independent of its subsidiaries. The guarantees by our subsidiaries, which are directly or indirectly owned by Range, of our senior notes and our bank credit facility are full and unconditional and joint and several, subject to certain customary release provisions. The assets, liabilities and results of operations of Range and our guarantor subsidiaries are not materially different than our consolidated financial statements. A subsidiary guarantor may be released from its obligations under the guarantee:

in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the subsidiary guarantor or a sale or other disposition of all the capital stock of the subsidiary guarantor, to any corporation or other person (including an unrestricted subsidiary of Range) by way of merger, consolidation, or otherwise; or

if Range designates any restricted subsidiary that is a guarantor to be an unrestricted subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

The fair value of these contracts as of March 31, 2025, which utilizes Level 3 inputs, was a derivative liability of $30.3 million.

Basis Swap Contracts

In addition to the commodity derivatives described above, at March 31, 2025, we had natural gas basis swap contracts which lock in the differential between NYMEX Henry Hub and certain of our physical pricing indices. These contracts settle through December 2028 and include a total volume of 216,867,500 Mmbtu. The fair value of these contracts was a gain of $11.7 million at March 31, 2025.

(8)FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the authoritative guidance for measuring fair value of assets and liabilities in its financial statements. For further information on the fair value hierarchy, refer to Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K. As of March 31, 2025, a portion of our natural gas instruments contain swaptions where the counterparty has the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a fixed price swap on a pre-determined date. If exercised, the swaption contract becomes a swap treated consistently with our fixed-price swaps. At March 31, 2025, we used a weighted average implied volatility of 25% for natural gas swaptions. The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for derivative instruments classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Balance at December 31, 2024$(13,240)
Total losses included in earnings(15,067)

The following presents the carrying amounts and the fair values and hierarchy of our financial instruments as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

Deferred compensation plan (d)(88,130)(88,130)(86,882)(86,882)

(a)

Fair values for commodity derivatives utilize Level 2 inputs with the exception of swaptions, which utilize Level 3 inputs. Fair value of swaption contracts as of March 31, 2025 was a derivative liability of $30.3 million.

(b)

Marketable securities, which are held in our deferred compensation plans, are actively traded on major exchanges, which is a level 1 input.

(c)

The book value of our bank debt approximates fair value because of its floating rate structure. The fair value of our senior notes is based on end of period market quotes which are Level 2 inputs. Debt is presented on the balance sheet at carrying value.

(d)

The fair value of our deferred compensation plan is updated to the closing price of the marketable securities held in the plan on the balance sheet date, which is a Level 1 input.

Our current assets and liabilities include financial instruments, the most significant of which are trade accounts receivable and payable. We believe the carrying values of our current assets and liabilities approximate fair value. Our fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including (1) the short-term duration of the instruments and (2) our historical and expected incurrence of bad debt expense. Our allowance for uncollectible receivables was$250,000 at March 31, 2025 and$255,000 at December 31, 2024. Non-financial liabilities initially measured at fair value include asset retirement obligations, operating lease liabilities and the divestiture contract obligation that we incurred in conjunction with the sale of our North Louisiana assets.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances. Our proved natural gas and oil properties are reviewed for impairment periodically as events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. There were no proved property impairment charges for first three months 2025 or 2024.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

As of March 31, 2025, our primary concentrations of credit risk are the risks of not collecting accounts receivable and the risk of a counterparty’s failure to perform under derivative obligations. To manage counterparty risk associated with our derivatives, we select and monitor our counterparties based on our assessment of their financial strength and/or credit ratings. Counterparty credit risk is considered when determining the fair value of our derivative contracts. While our counterparties are primarily major investment grade financial institutions, the fair value of our derivative contracts has been adjusted to account for the risk of non-performance by certain of our counterparties, which was immaterial. At March 31, 2025, our derivative counterparties include fourteen financial institutions, of whichten are secured lenders in our bank credit facility. At March 31, 2025, our net derivative position includes an aggregate net payable of $262,000 toone of the counterparties and a net receivable of $5.4 million from three of the counterparties not included in our bank credit facility.
