NOTE: Please note that CNX is unable to provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP projected financial results contained in this presentation, including the non-GAAP measures referenced above, to their respective comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. This is due to our inability to calculate the comparable GAAP projected metrics, including operating income, net cash provided by operating activities and total production costs, given the unknown effect, timing, and potential significance of certain income statement items.

*During periods in which the Company incurs a net loss, diluted weighted average shares outstanding are equal to basic weighted average shares outstanding because the effect of all equity awards and the potential share settlement impact related to CNX’s Convertible Notes are antidilutive.
^The Convertible Notes were not included in the computation of diluted income per share in the three months ended March 31, 2024 as the effect of including these shares in the calculation would have been anti-dilutive (See Note 2 - Earnings Per Share in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of CNX’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024).

Non-GAAP Measures (Definitions, Purpose, and Reconciliations)

CNX's management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, and believes that they are useful for investors in analyzing the company. Although these are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management believes that these financial measures are useful to an investor in evaluating CNX because (i) analysts utilize these metrics when evaluating company performance and have requested this information as of a recent practicable date, (ii) these metrics are widely used to evaluate a company’s operating performance, and (iii) we want to provide updated information to investors. Investors should not view these metrics as a substitute for measures of performance that are calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because all companies do not calculate these measures identically, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Definitions: EBIT is defined as earnings before deducting net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) and income taxes. EBITDAX is defined as earnings before deducting net interest expense (interest expense less interest income), income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, and exploration. Adjusted EBITDAX is defined as EBITDAX after adjusting for the discrete items listed below. Although EBIT, EBITDAX, and adjusted EBITDAX are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that they are useful to an investor in evaluating CNX Resources because they are widely used to evaluate a company's operating performance. We exclude stock-based compensation from adjusted EBITDAX because we do not believe it accurately reflects the actual operating expense incurred during the relevant period and may vary widely from period to period irrespective of operating results. Investors should not view these metrics as a substitute for measures of performance that are calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because all companies do not calculate EBIT, EBITDAX or adjusted EBITDAX identically, the presentation here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Sales of natural gas, NGL and oil, including cash settlements excludes the impacts of changes in the fair value of commodity derivative instruments prior to settlement, which are often volatile, and only includes the impact of settled commodity derivative instruments. Natural gas, NGL and oil production costs excludes certain expenses that are not directly related to CNX’s natural gas producing activities and are managed outside our production operations. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is defined as net income after adjusting for the discrete items listed below as well as the tax effectiveness. Operating Margins are defined as adjusted EBIT divided by Total Revenue after adjusting for unrealized (gain) loss on commodity derivative instruments. Adjusted Trailing-Twelve-Months (TTM) EBITDAX is defined as EBITDAX over the trailing-twelve-months after adjusting for the discrete items listed below. Cash Operating Margins are defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by total Revenue after adjusting for unrealized (gain) loss on commodity derivative instruments. Net Debt is defined as total long-term debt minus cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Adjusted Net Debt is defined as total long-term debt plus the historical impact of recent accounting pronouncement, minus cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Free Cash Flow (FCF) is defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures plus proceeds from asset sales and minus investments in equity affiliates.

Reconciliations of EBIT, EBITDAX, adjusted EBITDAX, adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA, sales of natural gas, NGL and oil, including cash settlements, natural gas, NGL and oil production costs, adjusted net income, operating margins, cash operating margins, net debt, adjusted net debt, adjusted TTM EBITDAX and FCF to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are as follows:

Non-GAAP Measures
Sales of Natural Gas, NGL and Oil, including cash settlements excludes the impacts of changes in the fair value of commodity derivative instruments prior to settlement, which are often volatile, and only includes the impact of settled commodity derivative instruments. Sales of Natural Gas, NGL and Oil, including cash settlements is a non-GAAP measure that excludes purchased gas revenue and other revenue and operating income, which are not directly related to CNX’s natural gas producing activities. Natural Gas, NGL and Oil Production Costs is a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain expenses that are not directly related to CNX’s natural gas producing activities and are managed outside our production operations (See Note 21 - Segment Information of the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of CNX's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on February 8, 2024). These expenses include, but are not limited to, interest expense and other corporate expenses such as selling, general and administrative costs in the current periods presented.

Non-GAAP Measures
Management uses net debt to determine the company's outstanding debt obligations that would not be readily satisfied by its cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash on hand. Management believes that using net debt is useful to investors in determining the company's leverage ratio since the company could choose to use its cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash to retire debt.
Net Debt: Total long-term debt minus cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash.
Adjusted Net Debt : Total long-term debt, plus the historical impact of recent accounting pronouncement, minus cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash.

Risk Factors

This presentation, including the oral statements made in connection herewith, contains forward-looking statements estimates and projections within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking and may include our operational and strategic plans; estimates of gas reserves and resources; projected timing and rates of return of future investments; and projections and estimates of future production revenues, income and capital spending. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those statements estimates and projections. Investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of future actual results. The forward-looking statements in this presentation speak only as of the date of this presentation; we disclaim any obligation to update the statements, and we caution you not to rely on them unduly.

Specific factors that could cause future actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are described in detail under the captions “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), as supplemented by our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed in 2024, and any subsequent reports filed with the SEC. Those risk factors discuss, among other matters, pricing volatility or pricing decline for natural gas and NGLs; local, regional and national economic conditions and the impact they may have on our customers; events beyond our control, including a global or domestic health crisis or global instability; our operations and national and global economic conditions, generally; conditions in the oil and gas industry; the financial condition of our customers; any nonperformance by customers of their contractual obligations; changes in customer, employee or supplier relationships; ability to quality for environmental attribute credits and the volatility of environmental attribute markets; and changes in safety, health, environmental and other regulations.
