Analysis
Antero Resources Corporation (AR) currently trades at $34.90, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $23.29, implying the stock looks roughly 33.3% overvalued today. We read business quality at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Energy sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Antero Resources Corporation generated revenue of $5.6B at a net margin of 17.1%. Revenue grew 34.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.8%. Net debt stands at $4.9B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $21.23 (bear case) to $36.48 (bull case); at $34.90, the current price sits within that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 24% below its 52-week high and 20% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Energy peers we cover trades at -26% fair-value upside, at -33%, AR screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($83.39) versus Dividend Discount ($6.51). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
