34 Appendix disclosures & reconciliations Antero Definitions Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX: Represents net income or loss from continuing operations, including noncontrolling interests, before interest expense, interest income, derivative fair value gains or losses (excluding net cash receipts or payments on derivative instruments included in derivative fair value gains or losses), taxes, impairment, depletion, depreciation, amortization, and accretion, exploration expense, franchise taxes, equity-based compensation, gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt, and gain or loss on sale of assets. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX also includes distributions from unconsolidated affiliates and excludes equity in earnings or losses of unconsolidated affiliates. See “Antero Non-GAAP Measures” for additional detail. Consolidated Adjusted Operating Cash Flow: Represents net cash provided by operating activities before changes in current assets and liabilities. See “Antero Non-GAAP Measures” for additional detail. Consolidated Drilling & Completion Capital: Represents drilling and completion capital as reported in AR’s consolidated cash flow statements (i.e., fees paid to AM for water handling and treatment are eliminated upon consolidation and only operating costs associated with water handling and treatment are capitalized). F&D Cost: Represents current D&C cost per 1,000’ lateral divided by net EUR per 1,000’ lateral assuming 85% NRI in Marcellus and 81% NRI in Utica. There is no directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP for F&D Cost and therefore, a reconciliation to GAAP is not practicable. Free Cash Flow: Represents Stand-alone Adjusted operating cash flow, less Stand-alone E&P Drilling and Completion capital, less Land Maintenance capital. See “Antero Non-GAAP Measures” for additional detail. Land Maintenance Capital: Represents leasehold capital expenditures required to achieve targeted working interest percentage of 95% for 5-year development plan (i.e. historical average working interest), plus renewals associated with 5-year development plan. Stand-Alone Adjusted EBITDAX: Represents income or loss from continuing operations as reported in the Parent column of AR’s guarantor footnote to its financial statements before interest expense, interest income, derivative fair value gains or losses from exploration and production and marketing (excluding net cash receipts or payments on derivative instruments included in derivative fair value gains or losses), impairment, depletion, depreciation, amortization, and accretion, exploration expense, franchise taxes, equity-based compensation, gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on sale of assets, and gain or loss on changes in the fair value of contingent acquisition consideration. Stand-alone E&P Adjusted EBITDAX also includes distributions received from limited partner interests in Antero Midstream common units. See “Antero Non-GAAP Measures” for additional detail. Stand-Alone Adjusted Operating Cash Flow: Represents net cash provided by operating activities as reported in the Parent column of AR’s guarantor footnote to its financial statements before changes in current assets and liabilities, plus the AM cash distributions payable to AR, plus the earn out payments expected from Antero Midstream associated with the water drop down transaction that occurred in 2015. See “Antero Non-GAAP Measures” on slide 35 for additional detail. Stand-Alone Drilling & Completion Capital: Represents drilling and completion capital as reported in the Parent column of AR’s guarantor footnote to its financial statements and includes 100% of fees paid to AM for water handling and treatment and excludes operating costs associated with AM’s Water Handling and Treatment segment).

35 Antero Non-GAAP Measures Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX, Stand-Alone Adjusted EBITDAX, Consolidated Adjusted Operating Cash Flow, Stand-Alone Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The non-GAAP financial measures used by the company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures utilized by other companies. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for their nearest GAAP measures. The Stand-alone measures are presented to isolate the results of the operations of Antero apart from the performance of Antero Midstream, which is otherwise consolidated into the results of Antero. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX and Stand-Alone Adjusted EBITDAX The GAAP financial measure nearest to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX is net income or loss including non-controlling interest that will be reported in Antero’s consolidated financial statements. The GAAP financial measure nearest to Stand-Alone Adjusted EBITDAX is Stand-alone net income or loss that will be reported in the Parent column of Antero’s guarantor footnote to its financial statements. While there are limitations associated with the use of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX and Stand-Alone Adjusted EBITDAX described below, management believes that these measures are useful to an investor in evaluating the company’s financial performance because these measures: • are widely used by investors in the oil and gas industry to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such term, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors; • helps investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of Antero’s operations (both on a consolidated and Stand-alone basis) from period to period by removing the effect of its capital structure from its operating structure; and • is used by management for various purposes, including as a measure of Antero’s operating performance (both on a consolidated and Stand-alone basis), in presentations to the company’s board of directors, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX is also used by the board of directors as a performance measure in determining executive compensation. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX, as defined by our credit facility, is used by our lenders pursuant to covenants under our revolving credit facility and the indentures governing the company’s senior notes. There are significant limitations to using Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX and Stand-Alone Adjusted EBITDAX as measures of performance, including the inability to analyze the effect of certain recurring and non-recurring items that materially affect the company’s net income on a consolidated and Stand-alone basis, the lack of comparability of results of operations of different companies and the different methods of calculating Adjusted EBITDAX reported by different companies. In addition, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX and Stand-Alone Adjusted EBITDAX provide no information regarding a company’s capital structure, borrowings, interest costs, capital expenditures, and working capital movement or tax position.

Antero is able to forecast the following reconciling items for the fourth quarter of 2018 between Stand-alone Adjusted EBITDAX to net income from continuing operations including noncontrolling interest: Antero has a significant portfolio of commodity derivative contracts that it does not account for using hedge accounting, and forecasting unrealized gains or losses on this portfolio is impracticable and imprecise due to the price volatility of the underlying commodities. Antero is also forecasting no impact from franchise taxes, gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt, or gain or loss on sale of assets, for the fourth quarter of 2018.
