Results of Operations
Current report
(2)Based on Netherland, Sewell and Associates Inc. found at https://netherlandsewell.com/resources/pricing-data/ and U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”) commodity pricing. Production-weighted average NYMEX benchmark prices are calculated using monthly benchmark prices weighted by the Company’s monthly production volumes during the applicable period.
Current report
Oil, Natural Gas and NGL Sales. Total oil, natural gas and NGL net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $97.9 million, or 135%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. Revenues are a function of oil, natural gas and NGL volumes sold and average commodity prices realized.
Current report
Net production volumes for oil increased 102%, natural gas volumes increased 73% and NGL volumes increased 57% between periods for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The increase in oil volumes between periods was a result of placing 23 wells into service in Ohio between the third quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2026. The increase in natural gas and NGL volumes was a result of a combination of placing 23 wells in Ohio and seven wells in Pennsylvania into service between the third quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2026, and a full quarter of production from wells acquired in the Antero Acquisition. The wells in service contributed to the overall increase of 149.8 Mcfe/d, or 75%, in production relative to the prior period, offset by the natural decline of producing wells.
Current report
Average realized oil prices rose 51% driven by a higher NYMEX WTI oil price during the period. Natural gas prices decreased 12%, reflecting a 16% decrease in NYMEX gas prices. NGL prices increased 70% due to gas compositional changes alongside strengthened oil, as Middle East disruptions tightened global LPG balances.
Current report
Midstream and Other Revenue. Midstream and other revenue was approximately $0.6 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Such revenues primarily consist of gathering revenues earned from third-party and working interest owner volumes transported through the Company’s gathering systems, as well as transportation optimization revenues derived from asset management arrangements, capacity utilization fees, spread-share arrangements and transportation reimbursements associated with the Company’s firm transportation capacity.
Current report
Gathering, Processing and Transportation Expense. Gathering, processing and transportation (“GP&T”) expense increased $14.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to higher production volumes, including volumes associated with the Antero Acquisition, the contribution from 23 wells brought online in Ohio between periods, increased gathering and processing rates under certain agreements, greater volumes transported through third-party midstream systems, and firm transportation commitments assumed in the Antero Acquisition. GP&T expense was $29.4 million, or $0.93 per Mcfe, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $14.5 million, or $0.80 per Mcfe, in the prior-year period. The increase in GP&T expense per Mcfe was primarily driven by approximately $7.5 million of firm transportation expense associated with the assumed firm transportation commitments. Excluding these firm transportation costs, GP&T expense was $21.9 million, or $0.69 per Mcfe, compared to $14.5 million, or $0.80 per Mcfe, in the prior-year period. The decrease in GP&T expense per Mcfe, excluding firm transportation costs, was primarily attributable to higher volumes from the acquired assets and increased production from the Company’s Pennsylvania natural gas assets, both of which benefit from transportation through Company-owned midstream assets, and a larger production base over which gathering and transportation costs are spread.
Current report
Lease Operating Expenses. Lease operating expenses (“LOE”) for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased $4.4 million compared to the prior period. LOE per Mcfe was $0.32 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, which represents an increase of $0.01 per Mcfe, or 3%, from the prior period. This increase in LOE was primarily related to semi-variable well costs, such as water disposal, equipment rentals, repair work, wellhead chemicals, labor and electricity, associated with a higher well count from new producing wells drilled or acquired.
Current report
Production and Ad Valorem Taxes. Production and ad valorem taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2026, decreased $(1.2) million compared to the prior period. Production taxes in Ohio are based on our production at the wellhead, while ad valorem taxes are generally based on the assessed taxable value of our proved developed oil and gas properties and vary across the different counties in which we operate. Production taxes in Pennsylvania are assessed on producing wells by imposing an impact fee determined based on the market price for natural gas, which commences on the date the well is initially spud and continues for a period of 15 years.
Current report
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) expense was $44.4 million, an increase of $20.8 million over the prior period. The primary factor contributing to higher DD&A expense during the period was the increase in our overall production volumes between periods resulting in an average DD&A rate of $1.40 per Mcfe.
Current report
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $12.4 million compared to $5.3 million for the prior period. This increase was primarily related to expenses associated with the integration of the Antero Acquisition, an increase in headcount and $3.0 million of non-cash compensation expense.
Current report
Net Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments. Net gains and losses are a function of (i) changes in derivative fair values associated with fluctuations in the forward price curves for the commodities underlying each of our hedge contracts outstanding; and (ii) monthly cash settlements on any closed out hedge positions during the period.

Operating Expenses
Current report
Gathering, Processing, and Transportation Expense. GP&T expense increased $22.5 million to $49.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to higher production volumes and the contribution of acquired upstream assets from the Antero Acquisition. GP&T expense increased on a per unit basis to $0.84 per Mcfe from $0.82 per Mcfe in the prior‑year period. The firm transportation costs were approximately $9.1 million associated with the assumed firm transportation commitments. Excluding these firm transportation costs, GP&T expense was $40.0 million, or $0.68 per Mcfe representing a decrease of 17% when compared to the prior year period. The decrease in GP&T expense per Mcfe, excluding firm transportation costs, was primarily attributable to higher volumes from the acquired assets and increased production from the Company’s Pennsylvania natural gas assets, both of which benefit from transportation through Company-owned midstream assets, and a larger production base over which gathering and transportation costs are spread.

Previous report
Gathering, processing, and transportation. Gathering, processing, and transportation expense (“GP&T”) increased $7.7 million to $19.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily due to higher production volumes and the partial‑period contribution of acquired upstream assets from the Antero Acquisition. Although total GP&T expense increased on an absolute basis, GP&T expense per unit declined to $0.73 per Mcfe from $0.84 per Mcfe in the prior‑year period. The reduction in per‑unit GP&T expense was primarily attributable to higher production volumes and a shift in production mix toward the Company’s natural gas‑weighted assets in Pennsylvania, which benefit from lower gathering and processing costs and greater utilization of Company-owned gathering infrastructure compared to the Company’s wet‑gas‑weighted assets.

We funded our capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31,
Reworded paragraphs (31)
Previous wording
Commodity prices were volatile in the first quarter of 2026 and we expect commodity prices to continue to be volatile for the remainder of 2026 due to macroeconomic uncertainty, changes to the regulatory environment and geopolitical instability and tensions, including in the Middle East, Venezuela, Russia and Ukraine, and potential further imposition of domestic and foreign tariffs. For example, in late February and early March 2026, military conflict involving the United States, Israel and Iran escalated in the Middle East, increasing geopolitical uncertainty in global energy markets. Concerns over disruptions to oil, natural gas and LNG production and shipping routes in the region may contribute to market price volatility for an undeterminable period of time. Domestically, natural gas prices have been negatively impacted in recent months by a combination of mild weather and increased production. Our revenue, profitability, liquidity and financial position will continue to be impacted in the future by the market prices for oil, natural gas and NGLs.

The oil and gas industry is cyclical and commodity prices are highly volatile. During the period from January 1, 2026 through March 31, 2026, monthly index prices for NYMEX WTI crude oil ranged from $60.04 per Bbl to $91.38 per Bbl, while the range for NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas monthly index prices were between $2.98 per MMBtu and $7.49 per MMBtu. We expect that the commodity market will continue to be volatile in the future. The prices we receive for our production, and the levels of our production, depend on numerous factors beyond our control. We use a derivative portfolio and firm sales contracts to mitigate the risks of price volatility.

Full‑Period Versus Partial‑Period Effects. The Company’s results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflect the impact of assets placed into service or acquired at different points in time, including wells placed on production throughout 2025 and early 2026 and the partial‑period contribution from the Antero Acquisition. As a result, production volumes, revenues, and certain operating costs for the current period are not directly comparable to the prior‑year period, which did not include the acquired properties or a full period of production from certain development activity. Additionally, certain operating costs include a higher proportion of fixed or semi‑fixed components that do not scale linearly with production; therefore, per‑unit cost metrics may fluctuate between periods as production volumes increase.

2026 from cash flows from operations, borrowings incurred under the Credit Facility and net proceeds from capital market activities. We expect to fund our 2026 capital expenditures budget through a combination of cash flows from operations and additional borrowings under the Credit Facility, as well as the proceeds of the Preferred Stock Transaction and the Notes offering. Our ability to utilize cash flows from operations to fund our development program is driven by our oil and gas production, current commodity prices and our commodity hedge positions in place.
Current wording
We continually evaluate our capital needs and compare them to our capital resources. Our total capital expenditures incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were $137.3 million and $259.9 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we incurred $129.1 million in development activities, including drilling and completion and midstream, and $8.2 million related to land activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 , we incurred $240.6 million in development activities and $19.3 million related to land activities. We funded our capital expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 from cash flows from operations and cash provided by financing activities (including the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes and the Series A Preferred Stock), which we expect to continue for the remainder of 2026. Our ability to utilize cash flows from operations to fund our development program is driven by our oil and gas production, current commodity prices and our commodity hedge positions in place.
Previous wording
In connection with the closing of the Antero Acquisition, we also completed the Preferred Stock Transaction, which generated gross proceeds of $350 million and net proceeds of $334.0 million after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. The Series A Preferred Stock provides long‑term capital with no stated maturity; however, it accrues cumulative dividends that may be paid in kind for a limited period, after which dividends must be paid in cash, subject to restrictions under our Credit Facility. Any dividends paid in kind increase the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock and may increase future cash requirements. We believe the Preferred Stock Transaction enhances our overall liquidity and financial flexibility while supporting the execution of our development and acquisition strategy.
Current wording
In connection with the closing of the Antero Acquisition, we also completed the Preferred Stock Transaction, which generated gross proceeds of $350 million and net proceeds of $334.0 million after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. The Series A Preferred Stock provides long-term capital with no stated maturity and accrues cumulative dividends in accordance with its terms. The Company elected a PIK dividend for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, which increased the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock. The dividend declared for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was paid in cash, resulting in a cash payment of approximately $7.1 million on July 15, 2026. We believe the Preferred Stock Transaction enhances our overall liquidity and financial flexibility while supporting the execution of our development and acquisition strategy.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty. In connection with preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and to apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expense and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time we prepare our consolidated financial statements. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ materially from our assumptions and estimates. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the 2025 Form 10-K for information on our critical accounting estimates.
