Antero Resources reported strong second-quarter 2026 results, with net daily natural gas equivalent production averaging over 4.1 Bcfe/d, 21% higher than a year earlier.

The company raised 2026 production guidance to 4.15–4.2 Bcfe/d, lowered cash production expense guidance to $2.20–$2.30 per Mcfe, and updated realized price premiums for natural gas and C2 NGLs. It repurchased 1.1 million shares for approximately $38 million during the quarter, leaving about $880 million of remaining authorization. In July 2026 Antero closed $315 million of core Marcellus acquisitions, adding 125 MMcfe/d of net production and 15 net drilling locations, and expects overriding royalty interest reversion and contract optimization to add $60 million of annualized cash flow, or a $0.04 per Mcfe margin uplift starting in the third quarter of 2026.
Net Debt rose to $2,614,258 as of June 30, 2026 from $1,187,976 at December 31, 2025, in a period that included the HG Energy acquisition and elevated capital spending.

Antero Resources Corporation established a new commercial paper program that allows it to issue short-term, unsecured notes with up to $1.65 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time.

Antero expects its senior unsecured revolving credit facility to serve as a liquidity backstop and intends to maintain available capacity under that facility at least equal to the commercial paper outstanding.

The disclosure notes that the investor presentation is provided under Item 7.01 and is considered "furnished" rather than "filed" under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Antero Resources reported strong first quarter 2026 results driven by higher production and improved pricing. Net income attributable to the company rose to $535.2 million, up from $208.0 million a year earlier, while total revenue increased 44% to $1.95 billion. Net daily production averaged 3.9 Bcfe/d, 13% above the prior-year period, including 206 MBbl/d of liquids, and helped generate Adjusted EBITDAX of $723.4 million, up 32%.
Antero closed the HG acquisition during the quarter, adding 385,000 net acres, 400 drilling locations, and an expected 700 MMcfe/d of annual net production, while increasing Net Debt by $1.5 billion from year-end 2025. Adjusted Free Cash Flow rose to $657.5 million, supported by an average realized natural gas price of $5.57/Mcf, a premium to Henry Hub.
The company tightened its 2026 outlook, reaffirming full-year production of about 4.1 Bcfe/d (roughly 20% growth year-over-year), raising its expected ethane price premium to Mont Belvieu to $2.00–$3.00 per barrel, and lowering projected cash production expense to $2.25–$2.35 per Mcfe, reflecting expected efficiencies from the HG assets.
Antero Resources Corporation filed an amended current report to add full financial details for its acquisition of HG Energy II Production Holdings, LLC. The filing confirms the approximately $2.8 billion cash purchase of HG Production and includes HG Production’s 2025 audited financial statements and combined pro forma results.
The deal was financed through $750 million of 5.400% senior notes due 2036, a new $1.5 billion three‑year unsecured term loan, borrowings under Antero’s revolving credit facility, and restricted cash. Pro forma statements show how the Acquisition and related financing would have affected Antero’s 2025 balance sheet, earnings and reserves if completed earlier, giving a clearer view of the enlarged company’s scale and leverage.
Antero Resources Corporation filed a current report stating it will participate in Raymond James & Associates’ 47th Annual Institutional Investors Conference on March 3, 2026. The company has made its presentation materials for this conference available on its website at anteroresources.com.

Antero Resources Corporation completed the previously announced sale of substantially all of its Utica Shale oil and gas assets to an affiliate of Infinity Natural Resources, Inc. and Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. for aggregate cash consideration of $800 million, subject to customary adjustments. This converts a major asset position into cash proceeds.
With the sale closed and related conditions satisfied, Antero will fully redeem its 7.625% senior notes due 2029 on February 24, 2026. Retiring these higher-coupon notes should reduce interest expense and strengthens the company’s balance sheet by removing this debt.
Antero Resources Corporation reported much stronger fourth quarter 2025 results and laid out a larger 2026 development plan. Net income attributable to the company rose to $193.7 million from $149.6 million, while Adjusted Free Cash Flow before changes in working capital reached $203.9 million.
Fourth quarter net production averaged 3.5 Bcfe/d, including 208 MBbl/d of liquids, with a weighted average realized price of $3.97 per Mcfe before hedges. Proved reserves grew 7% year over year to 19.1 Tcfe, with 4.7 Tcfe of proved undeveloped reserves expected to require $2.3 billion of future development capital.
For 2026, Antero plans a $1.0 billion drilling and completion budget plus up to $200 million of discretionary growth capital, targeting average net production of about 4.1 Bcfe/d. The recently closed HG Energy acquisition, along with Ohio Utica divestiture plans, underpins guidance and is expected to lower costs and increase dry gas exposure as the company targets leverage below 1.0x.
Antero Resources Corporation plans a conditional full redemption of its 7.625% senior notes due 2029. The company has issued a notice stating it intends to redeem all outstanding notes on February 24, 2026 at 101.271% of principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As of February 9, 2026, $365,353,000 aggregate principal amount of these notes was outstanding. The redemption is expressly conditioned on closing the divestiture of substantially all Ohio Utica Shale oil and gas assets and the board of directors not determining that the redemption is no longer advisable. The redemption date may be delayed, and there is no assurance the transaction will be completed.
Antero Resources Corporation completed its previously announced acquisition of HG Energy II Production Holdings for cash consideration of approximately $2.8 billion, expanding its upstream asset base. To help finance the purchase, the company entered into a new unsecured $1.5 billion Term Loan A Facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Royal Bank of Canada and drew the full amount in a single borrowing.
The term loan matures on February 3, 2029, bears interest at a variable rate based on Term SOFR or an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin tied to Antero’s senior unsecured long‑term debt rating, and does not amortize. The credit agreement includes a financial covenant requiring total indebtedness to capitalization of 65% or less each quarter, along with customary limits on additional debt, liens, certain transactions, and restricted payments.
Antero Resources Corporation completed an underwritten public offering of $750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.400% Senior Notes due 2036. These senior unsecured notes bear interest at 5.400% per year, payable on February 1 and August 1, starting August 1, 2026.
The company plans to use the net proceeds, together with a new Term Loan A and proceeds from a planned Utica Shale asset sale, to fund the acquisition of HG Energy II Production Holdings, LLC and related costs. The acquisition is expected to close in the first half of 2026, with the Utica disposition expected to close in the first quarter of 2026.
If the HG Acquisition does not close by a defined outside date, is terminated, or the company determines it will not close, Antero must redeem all outstanding notes at 101% of principal plus accrued interest under a special mandatory redemption provision.
Antero Resources Corporation is issuing $750 million of 5.400% Senior Notes due 2036 in an underwritten offering under its shelf registration statement. The company expects to receive approximately $743 million in net proceeds after underwriter discounts and expenses. It plans to use these proceeds, together with a new Term Loan A facility and proceeds from selling substantially all Utica Shale oil and gas assets, to fund the HG Energy II Production Holdings acquisition and related costs.
The HG acquisition is expected to close in the first half of 2026, while the Utica asset sale is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, each subject to customary conditions. If the HG acquisition does not close by a defined outside date, is terminated, or is determined not to close, Antero will be required to redeem all outstanding notes at 101% of the initial issue price plus accrued interest under a special mandatory redemption feature.
Antero Resources Corporation reported a major portfolio reshaping. The company agreed to acquire 100% of HG Energy II Production Holdings, which holds about 385,000 net acres in the core Marcellus Shale in West Virginia, for $2.8 billion in cash. Antero Midstream Partners will separately acquire HG Energy II Midstream Holdings for $1.1 billion, with both deals expected to close in the first half of 2026, subject to customary conditions and antitrust clearance.
To help finance the upstream acquisition, Antero secured commitments for an unsecured $800 million 364‑day term loan bridge facility and a $1.5 billion three‑year term loan facility. At the same time, Antero and its subsidiaries agreed to sell substantially all of their Utica Shale upstream assets for $800 million in cash, and Antero Midstream will sell Utica midstream assets for about $400 million, with the upstream sale targeted to close in the first quarter of 2026. These steps together shift the company’s focus further toward its Marcellus position while bringing in significant cash proceeds and adding new debt facilities.
