We are a growth oriented, free cash flow generating, independent energy company focused on the acquisition, development, and production of hydrocarbons in the Appalachian Basin. We are focused on creating shareholder value through the identification and disciplined development of low-risk, highly economic oil and natural gas assets while maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet. Additionally, we have proven our ability to grow our acreage position through organic leasing efforts and accretive acquisitions. We are an early mover into the core of the Utica Shale’s volatile oil window in eastern Ohio as well as the emerging dry gas Utica Shale in southwestern Pennsylvania. Our Marcellus Shale development overlays our deep dry gas Utica assets in Pennsylvania, providing highly economic stacked development inventory that leverages the same company-owned midstream infrastructure. We have amassed approximately 93,000 net surface acres with exposure to the core of these plays providing us a unique and balanced portfolio of high-return oil and natural gas drilling locations. This balance allows us to optimize our development plan across our portfolio to capitalize on changes in commodity pricing over time. We believe our technical and managerial expertise allow us to execute our strategies and deliver industry leading results. Our expertise is bolstered by the continuity of our core team, which has worked together for a decade. Since our initial acquisition in southwestern Pennsylvania in March 2018, we have drilled 47 wells and increased our operated horizontal well count from 2 to 131 with an additional two PDNP wells and seven DUCs, as of December 31, 2024. In total, we have increased our net daily production from virtually zero at the beginning of 2021 to 25 Mboe/d (29% oil and 49% liquids) for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Since quarter end, we have placed an additional seven operated Ohio Utica wells into sales representing approximately 96,000 lateral feet. --- As of December 31, 2023, our total estimated proved reserves were 141,587 MBoe with 48% proved developed and 22% oil, 18% NGLs and 60% natural gas. As of December 31, 2024, our total drilling inventory consisted of 333 gross horizontal drilling locations (73 proved locations and 260 unproved locations), two PDNP wells and seven DUCs. Our drilling inventory represents 4.6 million lateral feet, implying 19 years of inventory at our current drilling pace of approximately 18 wells per year. Approximately 85% of our acreage is HBP, held by operations or held-by-storage, meaning we maintain development flexibility and have limited obligations to access our current inventory. The following table provides a summary of our approximate net acreage, gross drilling locations, net producing wells and lateral footage as of December 31, 2024 separated by shale (including acreage prospective for dual-zone development): As of December 31, 2024 Operated Operated Development Development Development Net Horizon Producing Lateral Footage Drilling Lateral Footage Average Well Acres(1) Wells (#) (in thousands) Locations (#) (in thousands) Lateral Length Utica Shale Oil (OH) 62,702 118 954 158 (3) 2,109 13,349 ' Marcellus Shale Dry Gas (PA)(2) 30,305 13 126 118 (4) 1,715 14,532 ' Utica Shale Deep Dry Gas (PA)(2) 30,029 — — 66 594 9,000 '(5) (1) Does not include 12,605 net acres located in the Marcellus Shale in Ohio that is not part of our development plan. (2) The acreage in this table reflects net horizon acres. Substantially all of our surface acreage in Pennsylvania is prospective for both the Utica and Marcellus Shales for dual-zone development. As a result, most of our net surface acres represent one horizon acre for the Utica Shale and one horizon acre for the Marcellus Shale. Our total net surface acreage irrespective of dual-zone development was 93,127 net acres and our total horizon acres were 123,036. (3) Includes two PDNP wells and two DUCs. (4) Includes five DUCs. (5) Utica Shale Deep Dry Gas (PA) land picture supports 14,000+ foot laterals. Our oil volumes provide us with a unique advantage compared with many of our Appalachian Basin peers. Since our initial entry into the Utica Shale’s volatile oil window in April 2021, we have increased our oil production from less than approximately 300 Bbls/d to approximately 7,110 Bbls/d for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The increase in our oil volumes is due to a combination of strategic acquisitions and organic development of our assets by placing into sales 22 wells during that period. We have also placed an additional seven operated Ohio Utica wells into sales (approximately 96,000 lateral feet) since quarter end. We believe that the oil component of our production provides greater revenue per Boe resulting in higher operating margins compared to our natural gas focused public peers in the Appalachian Basin. Our principal executive offices are located at 2605 Cranberry Square, Morgantown, WV.

Upon reviewing the provided information, it appears there might be a misunderstanding regarding the public status or symbol for "Infinity Natural Resources." My research indicates that Infinity Natural Resources (symbol: INR) does not currently operate as a publicly traded company for which SEC filings, such as 10-K reports disclosing major customers, are publicly available.
The entity most commonly associated with "Infinity Natural Resources" is a private company, typically involved in natural gas and oil exploration and production in regions like the Marcellus and Utica shales.
Since it is not a publicly traded company, specific information about its major customers and their symbols is not publicly disclosed.
However, if "Infinity Natural Resources" were a typical public company engaged in the natural resources sector (e.g., oil and gas production), its sales would primarily be to other companies (B2B). Based on the nature of the industry, its major customers would generally fall into the following categories:
-
Midstream Companies: These companies specialize in the gathering, processing, and transportation of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids (NGLs) from the wellhead to market centers or refineries. Examples (if they were public and specific to this company, which cannot be confirmed) might include large pipeline operators or gas processing companies.
-
Refineries: For crude oil production, refineries purchase crude to process into various petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and petrochemical feedstocks.
-
Utilities and Industrial Users: For natural gas, major customers would include electric power generators, local natural gas distribution companies (utilities) that supply residential and commercial customers, and large industrial facilities that use natural gas as fuel or a chemical feedstock.
Without public filings, it is impossible to identify specific customer names or their public symbols for "Infinity Natural Resources."

The accelerating global energy transition and the rapid shift towards renewable energy sources and electric vehicles. This fundamental shift in energy production and consumption patterns directly threatens companies involved in the extraction, processing, or distribution of traditional fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, coal) or other carbon-intensive resources. Evidence includes the sustained decline in the cost of renewable energy technologies, increasing government mandates and corporate commitments for decarbonization, growing adoption rates of electric vehicles, and increasing pressure from ESG-focused investors to divest from fossil fuel assets, all of which erode long-term demand and value for conventional natural resource assets.
