Antero Resources Corp. insider Benjamin A. Hardesty reported a change in beneficial ownership of the company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, tied to a transaction dated July 10, 2026. The Form 4 reports that Hardesty acquired 2,181 shares of Antero Resources common stock at a reported price of $0.00 per share. Because the reported price was zero, the transaction appears to be a non-cash acquisition, such as an equity award, vesting event, or similar compensation-related issuance, although the excerpt does not provide a specific transaction code or detailed vesting explanation. Following the reported transaction, Hardesty beneficially owned 154,336 shares of Antero Resources common stock. The filing text also includes a reference to “500 per share,” but the excerpt does not clearly identify that figure as a transaction price, derivative security detail, or another Form 4 field, so the clearest reported economic action is the no-cost acquisition of 2,181 common shares. The ownership report was signed on July 14, 2026, by Yvette K. Schultz as attorney-in-fact for Hardesty. The filing matters because it updates investors on insider equity ownership at Antero Resources and indicates an increase in Hardesty’s holdings without an open-market purchase price being paid.
