Exhibit 99.1

Range Resources Corporation

Unaudited Consolidated Pro Forma Financial Statements

The following unaudited consolidated pro forma financial information is presented to illustrate the effect of Range Resources Corporation’s (“Range”, “our”, or “we”) expected sale of our Conger assets in Glasscock and Sterling Counties, Texas on our historical financial position and operating results. The sale is expected to close on June 16, 2014. The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations have been prepared to assist in the analysis of the financial effects of the divestiture. This divestiture does not qualify as a discontinued operation under Accounting Standards update 2014-08. We adopted this new accounting standard which, among other things, raised the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other material disposal transactions that do not meet the revised definition of a discontinued operation, as disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2014, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 28, 2014. This pro forma information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Range and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying footnotes and the financial statements included in the Range Resources Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2014, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on April 28, 2014.

The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 has been prepared to give effect to the divestiture as if it had occurred on March 31, 2014. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014 have been prepared to give effect to the divestiture as if it had occurred on January 1, 2013.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and statements of operations included herein are for information purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the divestiture taken place on the respective dates assumed. Actual results may differ significantly from those reflected in the unaudited consolidated pro forma financial statements for various reasons, including but not limited to, the differences between the assumptions used to prepare the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements and actual results. The pro forma adjustments in the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and the statement of operations included herein include the use of estimates and assumptions as described in the accompanying notes. The pro forma adjustments are based on information available to management at the time these unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements were prepared. We believe our current estimates provide a reasonable basis of presenting the significant effects of the transaction. However, the estimates and assumptions are subject to change as additional information becomes available. The unaudited pro forma financial statements only include adjustments related to the assets received in the exchange with EQT Corporation to the extent the asset valuation impact the pro forma gain calculation related to the disposition of the Conger assets. The acquisition of the producing, gathering and other assets from EQT Corporation does not require pro forma disclosures.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

On June 16, 2014, we expect to complete the exchange of our Conger assets in Glasscock and Sterling Counties, Texas for the Nora oil and gas producing properties, gathering and other assets in the state of Virginia owned by EQT Corporation and $145 million in cash subject to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement dated April 24, 2014. The sale has an effective date of January 1, 2014 and consequently operating net revenues after that date is a downward adjustment to the selling price through the normal post-closing provisions of the agreement.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated pro forma balance sheet and unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations have been prepared to give effect to the divestiture as if it had occurred on March 31, 2014 for the pro forma consolidated balance sheet and on January 1, 2013 for the pro forma consolidated statements of operations.
