Description: AR Antero Resources January 03, 2026

Antero Resources Corp (NYSE:AR) is an independent U.S. oil and natural-gas producer focused on the Appalachian Basin and the Upper Devonian Shale, where it holds roughly 521,000 net acres and 170,000 net acres respectively.

The firm operates three business segments-Exploration & Production, Marketing, and an equity-method investment in Antero Midstream-and owns about 708 mi of gas-gathering pipelines that support its production footprint.

Key operational metrics (2023) include ≈ 1.5 bcf/d of natural-gas equivalent production, ≈ $1.2 billion of cash flow from operations, and a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of ~ 2.1×, reflecting a balance between growth capital and financial leverage.

Sector drivers that materially affect AR are U.S. natural-gas price volatility (linked to seasonal heating demand and LNG export capacity), the ongoing shift toward higher-margin NGLs, and the broader capital-intensity of Appalachian shale development.
