Current report

On September 30, 2025, CNX entered into an agreement to acquire Utica Shale oil and gas rights, across approximately 23,000 nearly contiguous acres, that sit beneath the Apex Energy footprint. The cost of the acquisition will be approximately $50 million to be paid equally over a three-year period starting in January 2026. This transaction provides the critical strategic benefits CNX envisioned when acquiring Apex due to our ability to leverage the Apex infrastructure already in place to efficiently develop that leasehold.

Current report

The 26.8 Bcfe increase in sales volumes was primarily due to the Apex Transaction that was completed in the first quarter of 2025 (see Note 4 – Acquisitions and Dispositions in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for additional information) and the timing of when new wells were turned-in-line. The increase in volumes was offset, in part, by normal production declines.

The Shale segment had natural gas, NGLs and oil/condensate revenue of $367 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $237 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The $130 million increase was primarily due to a 39.6% increase in the average sales price for natural gas and a 21.8% increase in total Shale sales volumes. The increase was offset, in part, by the 81.0% change in the gain on commodity derivative instruments and a 13.1% decrease in the average sales price of NGLs.

The $580 million increase was primarily due to a 62.4% increase in the average sales price for natural gas and an 18.1% increase in total Shale sales volumes.

Previous report

On May 30, 2025, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) provided an update to their previously released 45ZCF-GREET (45Z) model to include the addition of Remediated Methane Gas (RMG). This update is significant in that it represents the second recent recognition of RMG as a qualifying feedstock for various end use applications within a federal incentive program. CNX continues to closely monitor 45Z as regulators and administration officials work towards final rule implementation, and assuming that final rule is consistent with the previously released notice of intent, it is anticipated that CNX could receive an incremental annual tax credit generation opportunity.

On July 4, 2025, the United States enacted into law the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA"). The OBBBA, which, among other things, allows for 100% bonus depreciation on a permanent basis for property acquired and placed in service on or after January 19, 2025, permanently reinstates the EBITDA limitation for the calculation of the deduction for interest expense after December 31, 2024, and allows permanent expensing rather than a five-year amortization period for domestic research and development amounts paid or incurred in tax years beginning after December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the OBBBA on its consolidated financial statements.
