RANGE RESOURCES CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANC IAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(1) SUMMARY OF ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Range Resources Corporation is a Fort Worth, Texas-based 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. Our objective is to build stockholder value through returns-focused development of our properties. Range is a Delaware corporation with our common stock listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "RRC."

(2) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These consolidated financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, 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. These consolidated financial statements, including selected notes, have been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules of the Securities Exchange Commission (the SEC) and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for complete financial statements.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 21, 2024. The results of operations for second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024 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.

(3) NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Not Yet Adopted

There were no issued or pending accounting standards in second quarter 2024 expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

(4) REVENUES FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Disaggregation of Revenue

We have three material revenue streams in our business: natural gas sales, NGLs sales and oil sales. Brokered revenue attributable to each product sales type is included here because the volume of product that we purchase is subsequently sold to separate counterparties in accordance with existing sales contracts under which we also sell our production. Other marketing revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 includes the receipt of a $1.5 million make-whole payment and the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes a total receipt of $5.1 million in make-whole payments. Accounts receivable attributable to our revenue contracts with customers was $201.4 million at June 30, 2024 and $263.9 million at December 31, 2023. Revenue attributable to each of our identified revenue streams is disaggregated below (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |

(5) 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. Consequently, based upon the mix and timing of our actual earnings compared to annual projections, our effective tax rate may vary quarterly and may make comparisons not meaningful. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our overall effective tax rate was different than the federal statutory rate due primarily to state income taxes, tax credits, equity compensation and the limitation of executive compensation expense. Current income taxes reflect estimated state and federal income taxes due for 2024 which is based on our estimated earnings, taking into account all applicable tax rates and laws.

(6) INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic income or loss per share attributable to common shareholders is computed as (1) income or loss attributable to common shareholders (2) less income allocable to participating securities (3) divided by weighted average basic shares outstanding. Diluted income or loss per share attributable to common shareholders is computed as (1) basic income or loss attributable to common shareholders (2) plus diluted adjustments to income allocable to participating securities (3) divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. The following sets forth a reconciliation of income or loss to basic income or loss attributable to common shareholders to diluted income or loss attributable to common shareholders (in thousands, except per share amounts):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Net income, as reported | $ | 28,704 |  |  | $ | 30,231 |  |  | $ | 120,842 |  |  | $ | 511,678 |
Participating earnings (a) |  | (180 | ) |  |  | (679 | ) |  |  | (772 | ) |  |  | (11,636 | )
Basic net income attributed to common shareholders |  | 28,524 |  |  |  | 29,552 |  |  |  | 120,070 |  |  |  | 500,042 |
Reallocation of participating earnings (a) |  | — |  |  |  | 2 |  |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | 112 |
Diluted net income attributed to common shareholders | $ | 28,524 |  |  | $ | 29,554 |  |  | $ | 120,074 |  |  | $ | 500,154 |
Net income per common share: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic | $ | 0.12 |  |  | $ | 0.12 |  |  | $ | 0.50 |  |  | $ | 2.10 |
Diluted | $ | 0.12 |  |  | $ | 0.12 |  |  | $ | 0.49 |  |  | $ | 2.07 |

(a) | Restricted Stock Liability Awards 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 Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic |  | 241,125 |  |  |  | 238,970 |  |  |  | 240,815 |  |  |  | 238,497 |
Effect of dilutive securities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Director and employee restricted stock and performance based equity awards |  | 1,858 |  |  |  | 2,135 |  |  |  | 1,951 |  |  |  | 2,572 |
Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted |  | 242,983 |  |  |  | 241,105 |  |  |  | 242,766 |  |  |  | 241,069 |

Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic for second quarter 2024 excludes 1.5 million shares of restricted stock held in our deferred compensation plan compared to 5.4 million shares in second quarter 2023 (although all awards are issued and outstanding upon grant). Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic for first six months 2024 excludes 1.6 million shares of restricted stock held in our deferred compensation plan compared to 5.5 million shares for first six months 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, equity grants of 17,000 shares 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. For six months ended June 30, 2024, equity grants of 9,000 shares were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted net income because the shares would be anti-dilutive to the computation.

financing costs).

No interest was capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023.

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 June 30, 2024, our bank group was composed of seventeen 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. We had no outstanding balance on our bank credit facility during first six months 2024. The weighted average interest rate was 8.4% for first six months 2023. A commitment fee is paid on the undrawn balance based on an annual rate of 0.375% to 0.50%. At June 30, 2024, 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 2024, our borrowing base was reaffirmed at $3.0 billion and our bank commitment was also reaffirmed at $1.5 billion. On June 30, 2024, we had no outstanding borrowings on our bank credit facility. We had $169.2 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 six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased in the open market $66.5 million principal amount of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 at a discount. We also repurchased in the open market an additional $800,000 principal amount of our 4.875% senior notes that was traded in June but not settled until July 2024 and is included in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets.

11

We recognized a gain on early extinguishment of debt for these transactions of $243,000, net of remaining deferred financing costs on the repurchased debt. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased in the open market $61.6 million principal amount of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 at a discount. We recognized a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $439,000, 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.

Debt Covenants

Our bank credit facility contains negative covenants that limit our ability, among other things, to pay cash dividends, incur additional indebtedness, sell assets, enter into certain hedging contracts, change the nature of our business or operations, merge, consolidate or make certain investments. We are required to maintain a maximum consolidated debt to EBITDAX ratio (as defined in the bank credit facility agreement) of 3.75 x and a minimum current ratio (as defined in the bank credit facility agreement) of 1.0 x. We were in compliance with applicable covenants under the bank credit facility at June 30, 2024.

(9) ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

Our asset retirement obligations primarily represent the estimated present value of the amounts we will incur to plug, abandon and remediate our producing properties at the end of their productive lives. Significant inputs used in determining such obligations include estimates of plugging and abandonment costs, estimated future inflation rates and well lives. The inputs are calculated based on historical data as well as current estimated costs. A reconciliation of our liability for plugging and abandonment costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023 is as follows (in thousands):

| Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 |  |  | Year Ended December 31, 2023 |
Beginning of period | $ | 117,429 |  |  | $ | 109,851 |
Liabilities incurred |  | 1,836 |  |  |  | 2,047 |
Liabilities settled |  | (3,546 | ) |  |  | (3,039 | )
Accretion expense |  | 3,238 |  |  |  | 6,000 |
Change in estimate |  | 550 |  |  |  | 2,570 |

Long-term asset retirement obligations | $ | 117,112 |  |  | $ | 115,034 |

Accretion expense is recognized as a component of depreciation, depletion and amortization expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

(10) DERIVATIVE ACTIVITIES

We use commodity-based derivative contracts to manage exposure to commodity price fluctuations. We do not enter into these arrangements for speculative or trading purposes. We utilize commodity swaps, collars, three-way collars or swaptions to (1) reduce the effect of price volatility of the commodities we produce and sell and (2) support our annual capital budget, fixed costs and investment plans. The fair value of our derivative contracts, represented by the estimated amount that would be realized upon termination, based on a comparison of the contract price and a reference price, generally the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) for natural gas and oil or Mont Belvieu for NGLs, approximated a net gain of $241.7 million at June 30, 2024. These contracts expire monthly through December 2027. The following table sets forth our commodity-based derivative volumes by year as of June 30, 2024, excluding our basis swaps which are discussed separately below:

(a) | We also sold natural gas swaptions of 40,000 Mmbtu/day for calendar year 2026 at a weighted average price of $4.08/Mmbtu that expire through October 2024 and 30,000 Mmbtu/day for calendar year 2027 at a weighted price of $4.10/Mmbtu that expire in October 2024.
(b) | We also sold oil swaptions of 2,000 bbls/day for calendar year 2025 at a weighted average price of $80.00/bbl that expire in September 2024.

Every derivative instrument is required to be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability measured at its fair value. We recognize all changes in fair value of these derivatives as earnings in derivative fair value income or loss in the periods in which they occur.

Basis Swap Contracts

In addition to the commodity derivatives described above, at June 30, 2024, 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 289,875,000 Mmbtu. The fair value of these contracts was a gain of $13.9 million at June 30, 2024.

(11) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There are three approaches for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities: the market approach, the income approach and the cost approach, each of which includes multiple valuation techniques. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to measure fair value by converting future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, into a single present value amount using current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace the service capacity of an asset. This is often referred to as current replacement cost. The cost approach assumes that the fair value would not exceed what it would cost a market participant to acquire or construct a substitute asset of comparable utility, adjusted for obsolescence.

The fair value accounting standards do not prescribe which valuation technique should be used when measuring fair value and does not prioritize among the techniques. These standards establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in applying the various valuation techniques. Inputs broadly refer to the assumptions that market participants use to make pricing decisions, including assumptions about risk. Level 1 inputs are given the highest priority in the fair value hierarchy while Level 3 inputs are given the lowest priority. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•
Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
•
Level 2 – Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. These are inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
•
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability being measured. These inputs reflect management’s best estimates of the assumptions market participants would use in determining fair value. Our Level 3 measurements consist of instruments using standard pricing models and other valuation methods that utilize unobservable pricing inputs that are significant to the overall fair value.

Valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs are favored. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest priority level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the placement of assets and liabilities within the levels of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Values – Recurring

We use a market approach for our recurring fair value measurements and endeavor to use the best information available. The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, on a recurring basis (in thousands):

|  |  | Fair Value Measurements at June 30, 2024 using: |

Our trading securities in Level 1 are exchange-traded and measured at fair value with a market approach using end of period market values. Derivatives in Level 2 are measured at fair value with a market approach using third-party pricing services which have been corroborated with data from active markets or broker quotes. Derivatives in Level 3 are also measured at fair value with a market approach using third-party pricing services which have been corroborated with data from active markets or broker quotes. However, the subjectivity in the volatility factors utilized can cause a significant change in the fair value measurement and is considered a significant unobservable input. As of June 30, 2024, a portion of our natural gas and oil 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 June 30, 2024, we used a weighted average implied volatility of 16% for natural gas swaptions and 22% for oil 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):

| Six Months Ended June 30, |
Balance at December 31, 2023 | $ | (1,161 | )

Trading securities. Our trading securities held in the deferred compensation plan are accounted for using the mark-to-market accounting method and are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We elected to adopt the fair value option to simplify our accounting for the investments in our deferred compensation plan. Interest, dividends, and mark-to-market gains or losses are included in deferred compensation plan expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. For second quarter 2024, interest and dividends were $283,000 and the mark-to-market adjustment was a gain of $679,000 compared to interest and dividends of $435,000 and a mark-to-market gain of $2.6 million in second quarter 2023. For first six months 2024, interest and dividends were $478,000 and the mark-to-market adjustment was a gain of $4.9 million compared to interest and dividends of $614,000 and a mark-to-market gain of $5.7 million in first six months 2023.

Fair Values - Non-recurring

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 in second quarter or first six months 2024 or 2023.

Fair Values – Reported

The following presents the carrying amounts and the fair values of our financial instruments as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands):

(a)
Marketable securities, which are held in our deferred compensation plans, are actively traded on major exchanges.
(b)
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.
(c)
The fair value of our deferred compensation plan is updated to the closing price 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. 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.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

As of June 30, 2024, 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. Most of our receivables are from a diverse group of companies, including major energy companies, pipeline companies, local distribution companies, financial institutions and end-users in various industries. Letters of credit or other appropriate assurances are obtained as deemed necessary to limit our risk of loss. Our allowance for uncollectible receivables was $308,000 at June 30, 2024 and $308,000 at December 31, 2023. Our derivative exposure to credit risk is diversified primarily among major investment grade financial institutions, where we have master netting agreements which provide for offsetting payables against receivables from separate derivative contracts. 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. We may also limit the level of exposure with any single counterparty. At June 30, 2024, our derivative counterparties include fifteen financial institutions, of which ten are secured lenders in our bank credit facility. At June 30, 2024, our net derivative asset includes an aggregate net receivable of $2.5 million from three counterparties not included in our bank credit facility and a payable to the remaining two counterparties of $1.2 million.

Allowance for Expected Credit Losses. Each reporting period, we assess the recoverability of material receivables using historical data, current market conditions and reasonable and supported forecasts of future economic conditions to determine their expected collectability. The loss given default method is used when, based on management’s judgment, an allowance for expected credit losses should be accrued on a material receivable to reflect the net amount to be collected.

(12) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

Description of the Plans

We have two active equity-based stock plans: our Amended and Restated 2005 Equity-Based Incentive Compensation Plan and our Amended and Restated 2019 Equity-Based Compensation Plan. Under these plans, various awards may be issued to non-employee directors and employees pursuant to decisions of the Compensation Committee, which is composed of only non-employee, independent directors.

Total Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation represents amortization of restricted stock and performance units. The following details the allocation of stock-based compensation to functional expense categories (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Direct operating expense | $ | 471 |  |  | $ | 426 |  |  | $ | 968 |  |  | $ | 841 |
Brokered natural gas and marketing expense |  | 583 |  |  |  | 460 |  |  |  | 1,291 |  |  |  | 1,121 |
Exploration expense |  | 335 |  |  |  | 303 |  |  |  | 659 |  |  |  | 623 |
General and administrative expense |  | 8,482 |  |  |  | 8,415 |  |  |  | 18,460 |  |  |  | 18,015 |
Total stock-based compensation expense | $ | 9,871 |  |  | $ | 9,604 |  |  | $ | 21,378 |  |  | $ | 20,600 |

The mark-to-market adjustment of the liability related to the vested restricted stock Liability Awards held in our deferred compensation plan is directly tied to the change in our stock price and not directly related to the functional expenses and, therefore, is not allocated to the functional categories above.

Restricted Stock – Equity Awards

We grant restricted stock units and restricted stock under our equity-based stock compensation plans to our employees, which we refer to as restricted stock Equity Awards. The restricted stock units and restricted stock generally vest over a three-year period and typically are contingent on the recipient’s continued employment. The grant date fair value of the Equity Awards is based on the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. In 2023, we began granting restricted stock (previously placed in our deferred compensation plan) that vests at the end of a three-year period for certain officer grants and at the end of a one-year period for non-employee directors. Vesting is also typically based upon the officer's continued employment with us. Prior to vesting, recipients of restricted stock typically earn dividends payable in cash upon vesting but they have no voting rights prior to vesting. Restricted stock Equity Awards are not issued until such time as they are vested and grantees receive the awards in stock. We recorded compensation expense for these outstanding Equity Awards of $18.0 million in first six months 2024 compared to $15.3 million in the same period of 2023.

Restricted Stock – Liability Awards

The Compensation Committee also grants restricted stock to certain employees and non-employee directors of the board of directors as part of their compensation. Upon grant of these restricted shares, which we refer to as restricted stock Liability Awards, these shares are placed in our deferred compensation plan (see further discussion below) and, upon vesting, withdrawals are allowed in cash or in stock. Compensation expense is recognized over the balance of the vesting period, which is typically at the end of three years for employee grants and at the end of a one-year period for non-employee directors. In 2023, the number of shares granted into our deferred compensation plan was reduced in favor of restricted stock Equity Awards. All restricted stock Liability Awards are issued at prevailing market prices at the time of the grant and the vesting is typically based upon an employee’s continued employment with us. Prior to vesting, Liability Award recipients have the right to receive dividends thereon. These Liability Awards are classified as a liability and are re-measured at fair value each reporting period. This mark-to-market amount is reported in deferred compensation plan expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. We recorded compensation expense for these Liability Awards of $706,000 in first six months 2024 compared to $2.7 million in first six months 2023.

Stock-Based Performance Awards - (PSUs)

We have granted two types of performance share awards: one based on performance conditions measured against internal performance metrics and one based on market conditions measured based on Range’s performance relative to a predetermined peer group (TSR Awards). In first six months 2024, only TSR Awards were granted.

Each unit granted represents one share of our common stock. These units are settled in stock and the amount of the payout is based on the vesting percentage, which can range from zero to 200% and (1) the internal performance metrics achieved, which is determined by the Compensation Committee and (2) for our TSR Awards, the value of our common stock compared to our peers. Dividend equivalents accrue during the performance period and are paid in stock at the end of the performance period. The performance period is three years.

17

Internal Performance Metric Awards. These awards are expensed ratably over the service period and vest at the end of the three-year performance period. The performance metrics are set by the Compensation Committee. If the performance metric for the applicable period is not met, that portion is considered forfeited and there is an adjustment to the expense recorded. We recorded compensation expense associated with the prior year grants of $696,000 in first six months 2024 compared to expense of $1.4 million in first six months 2023.

TSR Awards. These awards are earned, or not earned, based on the comparative performance of Range’s common stock measured against a predetermined group of companies in the peer group over a three-year performance period. The fair value of the TSR Awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model which utilizes multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award grant and calculates the fair value of the award. The fair value is recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the three-year performance period. Expected volatilities utilized in the model were estimated using a combination of a historical period consistent with the remaining performance period of three years and option-implied volatilities. The risk-free interest rate was based on the United States Treasury rate for a term commensurate with the life of the grant. We recorded compensation expense of $1.8 million in first six months 2024 compared to $886,000 in the same period of 2023. Fair value is amortized over the performance period with no adjustment to the expense recorded for actual targets achieved. The following assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the TSR Awards granted during first six months 2024 and 2023:

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 4.1 | % |  |  | 3.8 | %
Expected annual volatility |  |  | 56 | % |  |  | 61 | %
Grant date fair value per unit |  | $ | 31.84 |  |  | $ | 30.37 |

Equity and Liability Award Summary

The following is a summary of the activity for our restricted stock and performance awards for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

(a) | Amounts granted reflect performance units initially granted. The actual payout will be between zero and 200% depending on achievement of either total stockholder return ranking compared to our peers over the performance period or on the achievement of internal performance targets.

Deferred Compensation Plan

Our deferred compensation plan gives non-employee directors and officers the ability to defer all or a portion of their salaries, bonuses or director fees and invest in Range common stock or make other investments at the individual’s discretion. Range provides a partial matching contribution to participating officers which generally vests at the end of three years. The assets of the plan are held in a grantor trust, which we refer to as the Rabbi Trust, and are therefore available to satisfy the claims of our general creditors in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency. Our common stock held in the Rabbi Trust is treated as a liability award as employees are allowed to take withdrawals from the Rabbi Trust either in cash or in Range stock. The liability for the vested portion of the stock held in the Rabbi Trust is reflected as deferred compensation liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is adjusted to fair value each reporting period by a charge or credit to deferred compensation plan expense on our consolidated statements of income. The assets of the Rabbi Trust, other than our common stock, are invested in marketable securities and reported at their market value as other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The deferred compensation liability reflects the vested market value of the marketable

18

securities and Range stock held in the Rabbi Trust. Changes in the market value of the marketable securities and changes in the fair value of the deferred compensation plan liability are charged or credited to deferred compensation plan expense each quarter. We recorded a mark-to-market loss of $1.2 million in second quarter 2024 compared to a mark-to-market loss of $11.2 million in second quarter 2023. We recorded a mark-to-market loss of $7.6 million in first six months 2024 compared to a mark-to-market loss of $20.5 million in first six months 2023. The Rabbi Trust held 811,000 shares (758,000 vested shares) of Range stock at June 30, 2024 compared to 1.6 million shares (1.5 million vested shares) at December 31, 2023.

(13) CAPITAL STOCK

We have authorized capital stock of 485.0 million shares, which includes 475.0 million shares of common stock and 10.0 million shares of preferred stock. We currently have no preferred stock issued or outstanding. The following is a schedule of changes in the number of common shares outstanding since the beginning of 2023:

| Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 |  |  | Year Ended December 31, 2023 |
Beginning balance |  | 241,040,304 |  |  |  | 238,885,730 |

Ending balance |  | 242,398,258 |  |  |  | 241,040,304 |

Stock Repurchase Program

In 2019, the board of directors approved a stock repurchase program which was increased in size in 2022. At June 30, 2024, we had a remaining authorization to repurchase up to approximately $1.1 billion of our common stock. Under this program, we may repurchase shares in open market transactions, from time to time, in accordance with applicable SEC rules and federal securities laws. Purchases under the program are made at our discretion and may change based upon market conditions. In second quarter 2024, we repurchased 304,871 shares at an aggregate cost of $10.2 million. In addition, we repurchased $9.9 million (295,129 shares) that were traded in June and settled in July. The following is a schedule of the change in treasury shares based on settlement date for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024:

| Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 |
Beginning balance |  | 24,716,065 |  |  |  | 24,716,065 |
Rabbi trust shares distributed/sold |  | — |  |  |  | — |

Ending balance |  | 25,020,936 |  |  |  | 25,020,936 |

(14) EXIT COSTS

In third quarter 2020, we sold our North Louisiana assets and retained certain gathering, transportation and processing obligations which extend into 2030. These are contracts where we will not realize any future benefit. The estimated obligations are included in current and long-term divestiture contract obligation in our consolidated balance sheets. In first six months 2024, we recorded accretion expense of $20.3 million compared to $21.0 million in the same period of the prior year. In first six months 2023, we also recorded a net adjustment of $39.8 million to increase the obligation for an increase in forecasted rates due to inflation. We have recorded no adjustments to date in 2024. The estimated discounted divestiture contract obligation was $368.8 million at June 30, 2024.

In second quarter 2020, we negotiated capacity releases on certain transportation pipelines in Pennsylvania effective May 31, 2020 and extending through the remainder of the contract. The estimated remaining discounted obligation for these transportation capacity releases as of June 30, 2024 was $1.2 million.

(16) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

We are the subject of, or party to, various pending or threatened legal actions, administrative proceedings or investigations arising in the ordinary course of our business including, but not limited to, royalty claims, contract claims and environmental claims. While many of these matters involve inherent uncertainty, we believe that the amount of the liability, if any, ultimately incurred with respect to these actions, proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position as a whole or on our liquidity, capital resources or future annual results of operations.

When deemed necessary, we establish reserves for certain legal proceedings. The establishment of a reserve is based on an estimation process that includes the advice of legal counsel and subjective judgment of management. While management believes these reserves to be adequate, it is reasonably possible we could incur additional losses with respect to those matters in which reserves have been established. We will continue to evaluate our litigation on a quarterly basis and will establish and adjust any litigation reserves as appropriate to reflect our assessment of the then current status of litigation.

We have incurred and will continue to incur capital, operating and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. As of June 30, 2024, liabilities for remediation were not material. We are not aware of any environmental claims existing as of June 30, 2024 that have not been provided for or would otherwise have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. Environmental liabilities normally involve estimates that are subject to revision until final resolution, settlement or remediation occurs.

Transportation, Gathering and Processing Contracts

In first quarter 2024, our transportation and gathering commitments over the next twelve years increased by approximately $580.0 million from December 31, 2023, primarily due to contract extensions and certain agreements that were contingent on facility construction as of the end of 2023 and are now in service. There were no significant changes to firm transportation, gathering and processing minimum commitments in the second quarter 2024.

In addition to the above, during second quarter 2024 we entered into an amendment of an existing contract that will expand gathering, processing and transportation capacity by 300,000 Mmcf/day, contingent on the completion of construction and is expected to be in service in 2026. We have a related contingent minimum commitment associated with the de-ethanization capacity. Beginning on the in-service date this capacity will total 40,000 bbls/day, increasing by 5,000 bbls/day after one year of service, and continues through the end of the agreement.

(17) SUSPENDED EXPLORATORY WELL COSTS

We capitalize exploratory well costs until a determination is made that the well has either found proved reserves or that it is impaired. Capitalized exploratory well costs are presented in natural gas and oil properties in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. If an exploratory well is determined to be impaired, the well costs are charged to exploration expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. There were no capitalized exploratory well costs in 2023. The following table reflects the changes in capitalized exploratory well costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (in thousands):

ITE M 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANA LYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview of Our Business

We are an independent natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil company engaged in the exploration, development and acquisition of natural gas and liquids properties in the Appalachian region of the United States. We operate in one segment and have a single company-wide management team that administers all properties as a whole rather than by discrete operating segments. We measure financial performance as a single enterprise and not on a geographical or an area-by-area basis.

Our overarching business objective is to build stockholder value through returns-focused development of properties. Our strategy to achieve our business objective is to generate consistent cash flows from reserves and production through internally generated drilling projects occasionally coupled with complementary acquisitions and divestitures. Currently, our investment portfolio is focused on high-quality natural gas assets in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Our revenues, profitability and future growth depend substantially on prevailing prices for natural gas, NGLs and oil and on our ability to economically find, develop, acquire and produce these reserves.

Commodity prices have been and are expected to remain volatile. We believe we are well-positioned to manage challenges during a low commodity price environment and that we can endure the continued volatility in current and future commodity prices by:

•
exercising discipline in our capital investments;
•
optimizing drilling, completion and operational efficiencies;
•
maintaining a competitive cost structure;
•
managing price risk through the hedging of our production; and
•
managing our balance sheet.

Prices for natural gas, NGLs and oil fluctuate widely and affect:

•
our revenues, profitability and cash flow;
•
the quantity of natural gas, NGLs and oil that we can economically produce;
•
the quantity of natural gas, NGLs and oil shown as proved reserves;
•
the amount of cash flow available to us for reinvestment; and
•
our ability to borrow and raise additional capital, if needed.

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported results of operations and the amount of our reported assets, liabilities and proved reserves. We use the successful efforts method of accounting for our natural gas, NGLs and oil activities. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the preceding consolidated financial statements and notes in Item 1.

Market Conditions

We believe we are positioned for sustainable long-term success. We continue to monitor the impact of the actions of OPEC and other large hydrocarbon producing nations, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, hostilities in the Middle East, global inventories of oil and gas, future monetary and fiscal policy and governmental policies aimed at transitioning towards lower carbon energy, and we expect prices for some or all of the commodities we produce to remain volatile given the complex dynamics of supply and demand that exist in the global energy markets. In first quarter 2024, natural gas prices declined primarily due to mild winter weather, but prices partially recovered in late second quarter 2024 based on signs of lower industry well completion activity and supply declines. Longer term natural gas futures prices remain stronger based on market expectations that associated gas-related activity in oil basins and dry gas basin activity will show modest rates of growth compared with the past due to infrastructure constraints, moderated reinvestment rates and core inventory exhaustion. In addition, the global energy crisis experienced in recent years further highlighted the low cost and low emissions shale gas resource base in North America, supporting continued strong structural demand growth for United States liquefied natural gas exports, domestic industrial gas demand and power generation to support anticipated data center demand growth. Other factors such as geopolitical disruptions, supply chain disruptions, cost inflation, concerns over a potential economic recession and the pace and changes in global monetary policy may impact the demand for natural gas, NGLs and oil. We continue to assess and monitor the impact and consequences of these factors on our operations.

Commodity prices have remained volatile. Benchmarks for natural gas decreased in second quarter 2024 and first six months 2024 compared to the same periods of 2023. Benchmarks for NGLs increased in second quarter 2024 compared to the same period of 2023 and remained flat for the first six months 2024 compared to 2023. As a result, we experienced increases in our price realizations for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Despite overall year to date lower prices, we continue to focus on creating long-term value for our stockholders along with positioning ourselves to be a responsible and reliable supplier of natural gas and NGLs.

22

The following table lists related benchmarks for natural gas, oil and NGLs composite prices for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Benchmarks: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Average NYMEX prices (a) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Natural gas (per mcf) | $ | 1.88 |  |  | $ | 2.10 |  |  | $ | 2.06 |  |  | $ | 2.79 |
Oil (per bbl) |  | 80.49 |  |  |  | 73.98 |  |  |  | 78.68 |  |  |  | 74.95 |
Mont Belvieu NGLs composite (per gallon) (b) |  | 0.55 |  |  |  | 0.50 |  |  |  | 0.56 |  |  |  | 0.56 |

(a) | Based on weighted average of bid week prompt month prices on the New York Mercantile Exchange ("NYMEX").
(b) | Based on our estimated NGLs product composition per barrel.

Prices for natural gas, NGLs and oil that we produce significantly impact our revenues and cash flows. Our price realizations (not including the impact of our derivatives) may differ from these benchmarks for many reasons, including quality, location or production being sold at different indices.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Overview of Second Quarter 2024 Results

During second quarter 2024, we recognized net income of $28.7 million, or $0.12 per diluted common share compared to net income of $30.2 million, or $0.12 per diluted common share during second quarter 2023. The lower net income in second quarter 2024 compared to second quarter 2023 is primarily due to lower derivative fair value income (non-cash fair value adjustment related to our derivatives), slightly offset by higher realized prices.

For second quarter 2024, we experienced an increase in revenue from the sale of natural gas, NGLs and oil due to a 14% increase in net realized prices (average prices including all derivative settlements and third-party transportation costs paid by us) when compared to the same quarter of 2023, combined with a slight increase of production. Daily production averaged 2.2 Bcfe in second quarter 2024 and 2.1 Bcfe in the same period of 2023.

Our second quarter 2024 financial and operating performance included the following results:

•
revenue from the sale of natural gas, NGLs and oil increased 2% from the same period of 2023 due to a 3% increase in production volumes, partially offset by a 1% decrease in average realized prices (before cash settlements on our derivatives);
•
revenue from the sale of natural gas, NGLs and oil (including cash settlements on our derivatives) increased 11% from the same period of 2023;
•
direct operating expense per mcfe was $0.12 in second quarter 2024 compared to $0.13 in the same period of 2023 primarily due to lower water hauling costs, lower workovers and lower equipment costs;
•
transportation, gathering, processing and compression per mcfe was $1.44 in second quarter 2024 compared to $1.42 in the same period of 2023, primarily due to an increase in fixed gathering and transportation costs;
•
general and administrative expense increased 2% from the same period of 2023 primarily due to aggregate impacts of cost inflation; and
•
interest expense decreased 5% from the same period of 2023 due to lower debt balances.

Second quarter 2024 also included the following highlights to enhance our balance sheet, return capital to investors and preserve liquidity:

•
paid $19.5 million of dividends, or $0.08 per share;
•
repurchased $20.1 million of our common stock, of which $10.2 million settled during the quarter;
•
repurchased in the open market $47.1 million face value of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 at a discount; and
•
maintained substantial liquidity with the accumulation of cash on hand of $251.1 million along with $1.3 billion available under our credit facility.

We generated $148.8 million of cash from operating activities in second quarter 2024, an increase of $22.2 million from second quarter 2023, which reflects the impact of higher realized prices.

Overview of First Six Months 2024 Results

During first six months 2024, we recognized net income of $120.8 million, or $0.49 per diluted common share compared to net income of $511.7 million, or $2.07 per diluted common share during the same period of 2023. The lower net income in first six months 2024 compared to the same period of 2023 is primarily due to lower derivative fair value income (non-cash fair value adjustment related to our derivatives) combined with lower realized prices.

For first six months 2024, we experienced a decrease in revenue from the sale of natural gas, NGLs and oil due to a 7% decrease in net realized prices (average prices including all derivative settlements and third-party transportation costs paid by us) when compared to the same period of 2023. Daily production averaged 2.1 Bcfe in both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Our first six months 2024 financial and operating performance included the following results:

•
revenue from the sale of natural gas, NGLs and oil decreased 13% from the same period of 2023 with a 15% decrease in average realized prices (before cash settlements on our derivatives) slightly offset by higher production volumes;
•
revenue from the sale of natural gas, NGLs and oil (including cash settlements on our derivatives) decreased 2% from the same period of 2023;
•
direct operating expense per mcfe was $0.11 in first six months 2024 compared to $0.13 in the same period of 2023 primarily due to lower workover costs along with lower water hauling costs;
•
transportation, gathering, processing and compression per mcfe was $1.47 in first six months 2024 compared to $1.45 in the same period of 2023 primarily due to an increase in fixed gathering and transportation costs;
•
general and administrative expense increased 2% from the same period of 2023 primarily due to aggregate impacts of cost inflation; and
•
interest expense decreased 5% from the same period of 2023 due to lower debt balances.

First six months 2024 also included the following highlights to enhance our balance sheet, return capital to investors and preserve liquidity:

•
paid $38.9 million of dividends, or $0.16 per share;
•
repurchased $20.1 million of our common stock, of which $10.2 million settled during the first six months;
•
repurchased in the open market $66.5 million face value of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 at a discount; and
•
maintained substantial liquidity with the accumulation of cash on hand of $251.1 million along with $1.3 billion available under our credit facility.

We generated $480.7 million of cash from operating activities in first six months 2024, a decrease of $120.8 million from first six months 2023, which reflects the impact of lower working capital and lower realized prices.

Natural Gas, NGLs and Oil Sales, Production and Realized Price Calculations

Our revenues vary primarily as a result of changes in realized commodity prices and production volumes. Our revenues are generally recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer and collectability is reasonably assured. The following table illustrates the primary components of natural gas, NGLs and oil sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

(b) | Oil and NGLs volumes are converted to mcfe at the rate of one barrel equals six mcf based upon the approximate relative energy content of oil to natural gas, which is not indicative of the relationship between oil and natural gas prices.

Our average realized price received (including all derivative settlements and third-party transportation costs) during second quarter 2024 was $1.66 per mcfe compared to $1.46 per mcfe in second quarter 2023. Our average realized price received (including all derivative settlements and third-party transportation costs) during first six months 2024 was $1.85 per mcfe compared to $1.99 per mcfe in first six months 2023. We believe computed final realized prices should include the total impact of transportation, gathering, processing and compression expense. Our average realized prices (including all derivative settlements and third-party transportation costs) calculation also includes all cash settlements for derivatives. Average realized prices (excluding derivative settlements) do not include derivative settlements or third-party transportation costs which are reported in transportation, gathering, processing and compression expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Average realized prices (including derivative settlements) do include transportation costs where we receive net revenue proceeds from purchasers. Average realized price calculations for three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are shown below:

Transportation, gathering, processing and compression expense was $281.5 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $268.2 million in second quarter 2023. These third-party costs are higher in second quarter 2024 when compared to second quarter 2023 primarily due to higher fixed gathering and transportation costs, higher electricity costs and the impact of higher NGLs prices which result in higher processing costs.

Transportation, gathering, processing and compression expense was $572.4 million in first six months 2024 compared to $553.7 million in the same period of the prior year. These third-party costs are higher in first six months 2024 when compared to the same period of 2023 due to higher fixed gathering and transportation costs and higher electricity costs, slightly offset by lower fuel costs. We have included these costs in the calculation of average realized prices (including all derivative settlements and third-party transportation expenses paid by Range). The following table summarizes transportation, gathering, processing and compression expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 on a per mcf and per barrel basis (in thousands, except for costs per unit):

Derivative fair value income was income of $16.8 million in second quarter 2024 compared to income of $123.7 million in second quarter 2023. Derivative fair value income was $63.4 million in first six months 2024 compared to income of $491.7 million in the same period of the prior year. All of our derivatives are accounted for using the mark-to-market accounting method. Mark-to-market accounting treatment can result in more volatility of our revenues as the change in the fair value of our commodity derivative positions is included in total revenue. As commodity prices increase or decrease, such changes will have an opposite effect on the mark-to-market value of our derivatives. Gains on our derivatives generally indicate potentially lower wellhead revenues in the future while losses indicate potentially higher future wellhead revenues. The following table summarizes the impact of our commodity derivatives for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

(a) | Non-cash fair value adjustments on commodity derivatives is a non-U.S. GAAP measure. Non-cash fair value adjustments on commodity derivatives only represent the net change between periods of the fair market values of commodity derivative positions and exclude the impact of settlements on commodity derivatives during the period. We believe that non-cash fair value adjustments on commodity derivatives is a useful supplemental disclosure to differentiate non-cash fair market value adjustments from settlements on commodity derivatives during the period. Non-cash fair value adjustments on commodity derivatives is not a measure of financial or operating performance under U.S. GAAP, nor should it be considered a substitute for derivative fair value income or loss as reported in our consolidated statements of income. This also includes the change in fair value of our divestiture contingent consideration.

Brokered natural gas, marketing and other revenue in second quarter 2024 was $34.8 million compared to $44.9 million in second quarter 2023, which is the result of lower broker sales volumes (volumes not related to our production) slightly offset by higher broker sales prices. We continue to optimize our transportation portfolio using these volumes. Other revenue in second quarter 2024 also includes $3.4 million of interest income compared to $1.8 million in the same period of the prior year. Other marketing revenue for second quarter 2023 includes the receipt of a $1.5 million make-whole payment.

Brokered natural gas, marketing and other revenue was $66.6 million in first six months 2024 compared to $127.0 million in first six months 2023, which is the result of lower broker sales prices combined with lower broker sales volumes. Such revenue in first six months 2024 also includes the receipt of $6.3 million of interest income compared to $2.7 million in the same period of the prior year. The six months ended June 30, 2023 also includes $5.1 million in make-whole payments. See also Brokered natural gas and marketing expense below for more information on our net brokered margin.

Direct operating expense was $22.8 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $23.9 million in second quarter 2023. Direct operating expenses include normally recurring expenses to operate and produce our wells, non-recurring workover costs and repair-related expenses. Our direct operating costs decreased in second quarter 2024 primarily due to lower water hauling costs, lower workover costs and lower equipment costs. We incurred $644,000 of workover costs in second quarter 2024 compared to $784,000 in second quarter 2023.

Direct operating expense was $44.9 million in first six months 2024 compared to $50.9 million in the same period of the prior year. Our direct operating costs decreased in first six months 2024 when compared to the same period of the prior year due to lower workover costs, lower water hauling costs and lower contract labor and services. We incurred $1.5 million of workover costs in first six months 2024 compared to $3.7 million of workover costs in first six months 2023. These costs are expected to enhance production from existing wells. The following table summarizes direct operating expense per mcfe for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Taxes other than income expense is predominately comprised of the Pennsylvania impact fee which is paid based on market commodity prices. In 2012, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania enacted an "impact fee" which functions as a tax on unconventional natural gas and oil production from the Marcellus Shale in Pennsylvania. This impact fee was $4.6 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $6.7 million in second quarter 2023. This impact fee was $10.4 million in first six months 2024 compared to $13.5 million in first six months 2023, which reflects lower natural gas prices. The impact fee is based on drilling activities and is adjusted based on prevailing natural gas prices. This category also includes franchise, real estate and other applicable taxes. First six months 2024 includes a refund of $618,000 associated with state commercial activity taxes. The following table summarizes taxes other than income per mcfe for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The decrease in interest expense for second quarter 2024 from the same period of 2023 was primarily due to lower average outstanding debt balances. We had no debt outstanding on the bank credit facility for second quarter 2024 or the same period 2023.

The decrease in interest expense for first six months 2024 from the same period of 2023 was primarily due to lower average outstanding debt balances. We had no debt outstanding on the bank credit facility for first six months 2024 compared to a $16.0 million average debt balance for first six months 2023 and the weighted average interest rate on the credit facility was 8.4% in first six months 2023.

Depletion, depreciation and amortization (DD&A) expense was $87.6 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $85.0 million in second quarter 2023. This increase is due to slightly higher production volumes. Depletion expense, the largest component of DD&A expense, was $0.44 per mcfe in second quarter 2024 compared to $0.44 per mcfe in second quarter 2023.

DD&A expense was $174.7 million in first six months 2024 compared to $171.6 million in the same period of 2023. This increase is due to a slight increase in production volumes. Depletion expense was $0.44 per mcfe in first six months 2024 compared to $0.44 in the same period of 2023. We have historically adjusted our depletion rates in the fourth quarter of each year based on the year-end reserve report and at other times during the year when circumstances indicate there has been a significant change in reserves or costs. The following table summarizes DD&A expense per mcfe for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Other Operating Expenses

Our total operating expenses also include other expenses that generally do not trend with production. These expenses include stock-based compensation, brokered natural gas and marketing expense, exploration expense, abandonment and impairment of unproved properties, exit costs, deferred compensation plan expense and gain on early extinguishment of debt. Stock-based compensation includes the amortization of restricted stock grants and performance units. The following table details the allocation of stock-based compensation to functional expense categories for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |

Brokered natural gas and marketing expense was $34.1 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $44.8 million in second quarter 2023 due to lower broker purchase volumes (volumes not related to our production) slightly offset by higher commodity prices. Brokered natural gas and marketing expense was $65.7 million in first six months 2024 compared to $111.9 million in first six months 2023 due to lower commodity prices and lower broker purchase volumes. The following table details our brokered natural gas, marketing and other net margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023(in thousands):

Exploration expense was $6.7 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $7.4 million in second quarter 2023 due to lower seismic costs. Exploration expense was $11.2 million in first six months 2024 compared to $12.1 million in first six months 2023 due to lower seismic costs slightly offset by higher delay rentals. The following table details our exploration expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

Abandonment and impairment of unproved properties expense was $1.5 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $25.8 million in second quarter 2023. Abandonment and impairment of unproved properties was $3.9 million in first six months 2024 compared to $33.3 million in the same period of 2023. Abandonment and impairment of unproved properties for second quarter 2024 and first six months 2024 decreased when compared to the same periods of 2023 due to lower expected lease expirations in Pennsylvania. When we do not intend to drill on a property prior to expiration, we have allowed acreage to expire and we expect to allow acreage to expire in the future. However, we also believe acreage needed for our future development plans can be leased again.

Exit costs were $10.1 million in second quarter 2024 compared to $48.7 million in second quarter 2023. In second quarter 2024, we recorded $10.1 million accretion expense primarily related to retained liabilities for certain gathering, transportation and processing obligations extending through 2030 compared to accretion expense of $10.9 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Second quarter 2023 also included an adjustment of $37.8 million to increase this obligation primarily due to an increase in forecasted rates due to inflation.

Exit costs were $20.4 million in first six months 2024 compared to $61.0 million in first six months 2023. We recorded accretion expense of $20.4 million in first six months 2024 compared to accretion expense of $21.2 million in the same period of 2023. The first six months 2023 includes an adjustment of $39.8 million to increase this obligation primarily for an increase in forecasted rates due to inflation. There have been no adjustments made in 2024.

Deferred compensation plan expense was a loss of $1.2 million in second quarter 2024 compared to a loss of $11.2 million in second quarter 2023. This non-cash item relates to the increase or decrease in value of the liability associated with our common stock that is vested and held in our deferred compensation plan. The deferred compensation liability is adjusted to fair value by a charge or a credit to deferred compensation plan expense. Our stock price decreased from $34.43 at March 31, 2024 to $33.53 at June 30, 2024. In the same period of the prior year our stock price increased from $26.47 at March 31, 2023 to $29.40 at June 30, 2023.

During first six months 2024, deferred compensation plan expense was a loss of $7.6 million compared to a loss of $20.5 million in the same period of 2023. Our stock price increased from $30.44 at December 31, 2023 to $33.53 at June 30, 2024. In the same period of the prior year, our stock price increased from $25.02 at December 31, 2022 to $29.40 at June 30, 2023.

Income tax (benefit) expense was a benefit of $18.7 million in second quarter 2024 compared to an expense of $14.7 million in second quarter 2023. Income tax benefit was $490,000 in first six months 2024 compared to an expense of $136.6 million in the same period of 2023. The 2024 and 2023 effective tax rates were different than the statutory tax rates due to state income taxes, tax credits, equity compensation and the limitation of our executive compensation expense.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition, Capital Resources and Liquidity

Commodity prices are the most significant factor impacting our revenues, net income, operating cash flows, the amount of capital we invest in our business, payment of dividends and funding of share or debt repurchases. Commodity prices have been and are expected to remain volatile. Our top priorities for using cash provided by operations are to fund our capital budget program, debt repayments and return capital to stockholders. We currently believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to execute our business plan for the foreseeable future and across a wide range of commodity price environments. We continue to manage the duration and level of our drilling and completion commitments in order to maintain flexibility with regard to our activity level and capital expenditures.

Cash Flows

Sources of Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash flows provided from operating activities in first six months 2024 was $480.7 million compared to $601.5 million in first six months 2023. Cash provided from operating activities is largely dependent upon commodity prices and production volumes, net of the effects of settlement of our derivative contracts. The decrease in cash provided from operating activities from first six months 2023 to first six months 2024 reflects lower working capital and lower realized prices. As of June 30, 2024, we have hedged more than 50% of our projected natural gas production for the remainder of 2024. Changes in working capital (as reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows) for first six months 2024 was a negative $53.0 million compared to a positive $27.4 million for first six months 2023.

Uses of Cash and Cash Equivalents

Additions to natural gas properties for first six months 2024 were consistent with expectations relative to our announced 2024 capital budget.

Repayment of senior notes for first six months 2024 includes the repurchase and settlement of $66.5 million principal amount of our 4.875% senior notes due 2025 at a discount.

Treasury stock purchases for first six months 2024 include the repurchase and settlement of 305,000 shares for a total of $10.2 million as part of our previously announced stock repurchase program.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our main sources of liquidity are cash, internally generated cash flow from operations, capital market transactions and our bank credit facility. At June 30, 2024, we had approximately $1.6 billion of liquidity consisting of $251.1 million of cash on hand and $1.3 billion of availability under our bank credit facility. Our borrowing base can be adjusted as a result of changes in commodity prices, acquisitions or divestitures of proved properties or financing activities. We may draw on our bank credit facility to meet short-term cash requirements.

We expect our 2024 capital program to be funded by cash flows from operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we generated $480.7 million of cash flows from operating activities.

Bank Credit Facility

Our bank credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets. As of June 30, 2024, we had no outstanding borrowings under our bank credit facility and we maintained a borrowing base of $3.0 billion and aggregate lender commitments of $1.5 billion. We have undrawn letters of credit of $169.2 million as of June 30, 2024, which reduce our borrowing capacity under our bank credit facility.

The borrowing base is subject to regular, semi-annual re-determinations and is dependent on a number of factors but primarily the lenders' assessment of our future cash flows. Our scheduled borrowing base re-determination was completed in March 2024 with our borrowing base and lender commitments reaffirmed. We currently must comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including limiting dividend payments, debt incurrence and requirements that we maintain certain financial ratios (as defined in our bank credit facility agreement). We were in compliance with all such covenants at June 30, 2024.

Capital Requirements

We use cash for the development, exploration and acquisition of natural gas properties and for the payment of gathering, transportation and processing costs, operating, general and administrative costs, taxes and debt obligations, including interest, dividends and share repurchases. Expenditures for the development, exploration and acquisition of natural gas properties are the primary use of our capital resources. During first six months 2024, we used operating cash flows to fund $322.2 million of capital expenditures as reported in our consolidated statement of cash flows within investing activities. The amount of our future capital expenditures will depend upon a number of factors including our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, infrastructure availability, supply and demand fundamentals and our ability to execute our development program. In addition, the impact of commodity prices on investment opportunities, the availability of capital and the timing and results of our development activities may lead to changes in funding requirements for future development. We periodically review our budget to assess changes in current and projected cash flows, debt requirements and other factors.

We may from time to time repurchase or redeem all or portions of our outstanding debt securities for cash, through exchanges for other securities or a combination of both. Such repurchases or redemptions may be made in open market transactions and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. Our next significant long-term debt maturity is in the principal amount of $621.1 million due 2025, and is therefore classified as current on the balance sheet. As part of our strategy for 2024, we plan to maintain or improve our financial strength.

32

Cash Dividend Payments

On May 31, 2024, our board of directors approved a dividend of $0.08 per share payable on June 28, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 14, 2024. The determination of the amount of future dividends, if any, to be declared and paid is at the sole discretion of the board of directors and primarily depends on cash flow, capital expenditures, debt covenants and various other factors.

Stock Repurchase Program

Our total remaining share repurchase authorization was approximately $1.1 billion at June 30, 2024.

Other Sources of Liquidity

We have a universal shelf registration statement filed with the SEC under which we, as a well-known seasoned issuer for purposes of SEC rules, have the future ability to sell an indeterminate amount of various types of debt and equity securities.

Cash Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations include long-term debt, operating leases, derivative obligations, asset retirement obligations and transportation, processing and gathering commitments including the divestiture contractual commitment. See Note 16 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements entitled "Commitments and Contingencies" for more information on commitments.

Interest Rates

At June 30, 2024, we had approximately $1.7 billion of debt outstanding which bore interest at fixed rates averaging 6.0%. We had no variable rate debt outstanding at June 30, 2024.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently utilize any significant off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities to enhance our liquidity or capital resource position, or for any other purpose. However, as is customary in the oil and gas industry, we have various contractual work commitments, some of which are described above under Cash Contractual Obligations.

Inflation and Changes in Prices

Our revenues, the value of our assets and our ability to obtain bank loans or additional capital on attractive terms have been and will continue to be affected by changes in natural gas, NGLs and oil prices and the costs to produce our reserves. Natural gas, NGLs and oil prices are subject to significant fluctuations that are beyond our ability to control or predict. Certain of our costs and expenses are affected by general inflation and we expect costs for the remainder of 2024 to continue to be a function of supply and demand.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain sections of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include forward-looking statements concerning trends or events potentially affecting our business. These statements typically contain words such as "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "targets," "plans," "estimates," "predicts," "may," "should," "would" or similar words indicating that future outcomes are uncertain. In accordance with "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, these statements are accompanied by cautionary language identifying important factors, though not necessarily all such factors, which could cause future outcomes to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we anticipate. All comments concerning our expectations for future revenues and operating results are based on our current forecasts for our existing operations and do not include the potential impact of any future events. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date they are made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. For additional risk factors affecting our business, see Item 1A. Risk Factors as set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC on February 21, 2024.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITAT I VE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary objective of the following information is to provide forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about our potential exposure to market risks. The term "market risk" refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in natural gas, NGLs and oil prices and interest rates. The disclosures are not meant to be precise indicators of expected future losses, but rather indicators of reasonably possible losses. This forward-looking information provides indicators of how we view and manage our ongoing market-risk exposure. All of our market-risk sensitive instruments were entered into for purposes other than trading. All accounts are U.S. dollar denominated.

Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility of natural gas, NGLs and oil prices. We employ various strategies, including the use of commodity derivative instruments, to manage the risks related to these price fluctuations. These derivative instruments apply to a varying portion of our production and provide partial price protection. These arrangements can limit the benefit to us of increases in prices but offer protection in the event of price declines. Further, if our counterparties defaulted, this protection might be limited as we might not receive the benefits of the derivatives. Realized prices are primarily driven by worldwide prices for oil and regional index prices for North American natural gas production. However, natural gas and NGLs prices are becoming global commodities similar to oil. Natural gas and oil prices have been volatile and unpredictable for many years. Changes in natural gas prices affect us more than changes in oil prices because approximately 64% of our December 31, 2023 proved reserves are natural gas and 2% of proved reserves are oil. In addition, a portion of our NGLs, which are 34% of proved reserves, are also impacted by changes in oil prices. At times, we are also exposed to market risks related to changes in interest rates. These risks did not change materially from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

Commodity Price Risk

We use commodity-based derivative contracts to manage exposures to commodity price fluctuations. We do not enter into these arrangements for speculative or trading purposes. At times, certain of our derivatives are swaps where we receive a fixed price for our production and pay market prices to the counterparty. Our derivatives program can also include collars, which establish a minimum floor price and a predetermined ceiling price. Our program may also include a three-way collar which is a combination of three options. We have also entered into natural gas and oil derivative instruments containing a fixed price swap and a sold option (which we refer to as a swaption). At June 30, 2024, our derivative program includes swaps, collars, three-way collars and swaptions. The fair value of these contracts, represented by the estimated amount that would be realized upon immediate liquidation based on a comparison of the contract price and a reference price, generally NYMEX for natural gas and oil or Mont Belvieu for NGLs, approximated a net unrealized pretax gain of $241.7 million as of June 30, 2024. These contracts expire monthly through December 2027. At June 30, 2024, the following commodity derivative contracts were outstanding, excluding our basis swaps which are separately discussed below:

Period |  | Contract Type |  | Volume Hedged |  |  | Weighted Average Hedge Price |  |  |  |
|  |  |  |  |  | Swap |  |  | Sold Put |  |  | Floor |  |  | Ceiling |  |  | Fair Market Value (in thousands) |
Natural Gas (a) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
2024 |  | Swaps |  | 300,000 Mmbtu/day |  | $ |  | 4.11 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 68,181 |

(a) | We also sold natural gas swaptions of 40,000 Mmbtu/day for calendar year 2026 at a weighted average price of $4.08/Mmbtu that expire through October 2024 and 30,000 MMbtu/day for 2027 at a weighted average price of $4.10 Mmbtu/day that expire in October 2024. The fair value of these swaptions at June 30, 2024 was a net derivative liability of $1.1 million.
(b) | We also sold oil swaptions of 2,000 bbls/day for calendar year 2025 at a weighted average price of $80.00/bbl that expire in September 2024. The fair value of these swaptions at June 30, 2024 was a net derivative liability of $967,000.

We believe NGLs prices are somewhat seasonal, particularly for propane. Therefore, the relationship of NGLs prices to NYMEX WTI (or West Texas Intermediate) will vary due to product components, seasonality and geographic supply and demand. We sell NGLs in several regional and international markets. If we are not able to sell or store NGLs, we may be required to curtail production or shift our drilling activities to dry gas areas.

The Appalachian region has limited local demand and infrastructure to accommodate ethane. We have agreements where we have contracted to either sell or transport ethane from our Marcellus Shale area. We cannot ensure that these facilities will remain available. If we are not able to sell ethane under at least one of these agreements, we may be required to curtail production or, as we have done in the past, purchase or divert natural gas to blend with our rich residue gas.

Other Commodity Risk

We are impacted by basis risk, caused by factors that affect the relationship between commodity futures prices reflected in derivative commodity instruments and the cash market price of the underlying commodity. Natural gas transaction prices are frequently based on industry reference prices that may vary from prices experienced in local markets. If commodity price changes in one region are not reflected in other regions, derivative commodity instruments may no longer provide the expected hedge, resulting in increased basis risk. Therefore, in addition to the swaps, collars, three-way collars and swaptions discussed above, we have entered into natural gas basis swap agreements. The price we receive for our gas production can be more or less than the NYMEX Henry Hub price because of basis adjustments, relative quality and other factors. Basis swap agreements effectively fix the basis adjustments. The fair value of the natural gas basis swaps was a gain of $13.9 million at June 30, 2024, and they settle through December 2028.

Commodity Sensitivity Analysis

The following table shows the fair value of our derivatives and the hypothetical changes in fair value that would result from a 10% and a 25% change in commodity prices at June 30, 2024. We remain at risk for possible changes in the market value of commodity derivative instruments; however, such risks should be mitigated by price changes in the underlying physical commodity (in thousands):

|  |  |  | Hypothetical Change in Fair Value |
|  |  |  | Increase in Commodity Price of |  |  | Decrease in Commodity Price of |
| Fair Value |  |  | 10% |  |  | 25% |  |  | 10% |  |  | 25% |
Swaps | $ | 167,438 |  |  | $ | (91,629 | ) |  | $ | (229,073 | ) |  | $ | 91,629 |  |  | $ | 229,073 |

Our commodity-based derivative contracts expose us to the credit risk of non-performance by the counterparty to the contracts. Our exposure is diversified primarily among major investment grade financial institutions and we have master netting agreements with our counterparties that provide for offsetting payables against receivables from separate derivative contracts. Our derivative contracts are with multiple counterparties to minimize our exposure to any individual counterparty. At June 30, 2024, our derivative counterparties include fifteen financial institutions, of which ten are secured lenders in our bank credit facility. 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.

Interest Rate Risk

At June 30, 2024, we had total debt of approximately $1.7 billion. All of our outstanding debt is based on fixed interest rates and, as a result, we do not have significant exposure to movements in market interest rates. Our bank credit facility provides for variable interest rate borrowings; however, we did not have any borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2024.
