Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) | Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim financial information and should be read in the context of the Company’s December 31, 2024 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for a more complete understanding of the Company’s operations, financial position and accounting policies. The Company’s December 31, 2024 consolidated financial statements were included in Antero Resources’ 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and, accordingly, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2025 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2025. The Company has no items of other comprehensive income or loss; therefore, its net income or loss is equal to its comprehensive income or loss. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year because of the impact of fluctuations in prices received for natural gas, NGLs and oil, natural production declines, the uncertainty of exploration and development drilling results, fluctuations in the fair value of derivative instruments and other factors. In the course of preparing our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company identified an error in the quarterly calculations related to depletion expense of the Company’s proved oil and gas properties. See Note 17—Immaterial Correction of Prior Period Error to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
(b) | Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Antero Resources Corporation, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its variable interest entity (“VIE”), Martica Holdings LLC, (“Martica”), for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
(c) | Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. From time to time, the Company may be in the position of a “book overdraft” in which outstanding checks exceed cash and cash equivalents. The Company classifies book overdrafts in accounts payable and revenue distributions payable within its condensed consolidated balance sheets, and classifies the change in accounts payable associated with book overdrafts as an operating activity within its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. As of December 31, 2024, the book overdrafts included within accounts payable and revenue distributions payable were $14 million and $17 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, the book overdrafts included within accounts payable and revenue distributions payable were $21 million and $24 million, respectively.
(d) | Net Income Per Common Share
Net income per common share—basic for each period is computed by dividing net income attributable to Antero by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per common share—diluted for each period is computed after giving consideration to the potential dilution from (i) outstanding equity-based awards using the treasury stock method and (ii) shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2026 Convertible Notes (as defined below in Note 7—Long-Term Debt) using the if-converted method. The Company includes restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards, performance share unit (“PSU”) awards and stock options in the calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding based on the number of common shares that would be issuable if the end of the period was also the end of the performance period required for the vesting of the awards. During periods in which the Company incurs a net loss, diluted weighted average common shares outstanding are equal to basic weighted average common shares outstanding because the effects of all equity-based awards and the 2026 Convertible Notes are anti-dilutive. ​ The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s income attributable to common stockholders for basic and diluted net income per common share (in thousands):

Add: Dilutive effect of PSUs | ​ | 1,389 | ​ | 1,781 | ​
Add: Dilutive effect of 2026 Convertible Notes | ​ | 4,864 | ​ | — | ​
Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding | ​ | 312,503 | ​ | 314,798 | ​

Weighted average number of outstanding securities excluded from calculation of diluted net income per common share (1): | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
RSUs | ​ | 371 | ​ | — | ​
Stock options | ​ | 259 | ​ | 252 | ​
(1) | The potential dilutive effects of these securities were excluded from the computation of net income per common share—diluted because the inclusion of these securities would have been anti-dilutive.
(e) | Recently Adopted or Issued Accounting Standards
Reportable Segments ​ In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 is intended to improve reportable segment disclosures primarily through enhanced disclosure of reportable segment expenses. This ASU was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 in the 2024 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ​ Income Taxes ​ In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 is intended to improve income tax disclosures primarily through enhanced disclosure of income tax rate reconciliation items, and disaggregation of income (loss) from continuing operations, income tax (expense) benefit and income taxes paid, net disclosures by federal, state and foreign jurisdictions, among others. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, although retrospective application is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and the transition method it plans to use for adoption. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2023-09 in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025. ​ Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ​ In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 is intended to improve the disclosure about certain operating expenses primarily through enhanced disclosure of cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2024-03 can be applied on either a prospective or a retrospective basis at the Company’s election. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU 2024-03 will have on the consolidated financial statements and its plans for adoption, including its transition method and adoption date.
