## Business segments

Expand Energy reports one reportable segment: exploration and production. It separately identifies three operating areas, which are aggregated into that segment; its activities include producing, marketing, and selling natural gas, oil, and natural gas liquids (NGL). [14](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P28967468)[15](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P11334040)

For FY2025, the operating areas’ stated focus and approximate shares of the company’s $8,476 million in natural gas, oil, and NGL sales were: Haynesville (Louisiana and Texas; Haynesville and Bossier Shales), $3,477 million, or 41.0%; Northeast Appalachia (Pennsylvania; Marcellus Shale), $2,860 million, or 33.7%; and Southwest Appalachia (West Virginia and Ohio; Marcellus and Utica Shales), $2,139 million, or 25.2%. These are operating-area sales shares, not separate reportable-segment contributions. [1](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P17821845)[4](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T3766209)

## Company history

Chesapeake Energy began operations in 1989, founded by Aubrey McClendon and Tom Ward, and completed its initial public offering in 1993. [16](https://www.oklahoman.com/story/news/state/2020/05/12/chesapeake-energy-timeline/60401172007/)[17](https://investors.expandenergy.com/static-files/8877bfc0-5f62-4dd6-93f5-6384811883d6) The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in June 2020 and emerged in February 2021 after a financial restructuring. [18](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P177347411)

After emerging from bankruptcy, Chesapeake expanded its natural-gas position through its 2021 acquisition of Vine Energy, with assets in Louisiana’s Haynesville and Mid-Bossier plays, and its 2022 acquisition of Chief Oil & Gas and related interests in Pennsylvania’s Marcellus Shale. [19](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P15942514)[20](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P41075969) In 2023, it sold portions of its Eagle Ford assets. [21](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P24613105)[22](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P3053255)

Chesapeake and Southwestern Energy announced an all-stock merger agreement in January 2024, which shareholders approved in June. The merger closed on October 1, 2024, and Chesapeake changed its name to Expand Energy in connection with the combination.
