Guidance Update:(a)
2020 Guidance Update:
CNX reaffirms its 2020 production volumes of 490-530 Bcfe. Due to the pricing contango in 2020, the company shut-in certain wells starting in May to take advantage of anticipated higher price months later in the year. If the current gas price contango continues through the summer, the company expects that these shut-in wells will be back online in early November. Even though this would result in the company being at the lower end of the production range, the company would expect to be at the high-end of the adjusted EBITDAX range under this scenario.
