Exhibit 99.1

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On July 26, 2018, Chesapeake Energy Corporation and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, "Chesapeake" or the “Company”) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with EAP Ohio, LLC, a private oil and gas company headquartered in Houston, Texas (“Encino”), pursuant to which Encino agreed to purchase all of the Company’s acreage of approximately 1,500,000 gross (900,000 net) acres in Ohio, of which approximately 320,000 net acres are prospective for the Utica Shale with approximately 920 producing wells, along with related property and equipment (collectively, the “Designated Properties”) for a purchase price of approximately $2.0 billion, with additional contingent payments to the Company of up to $100 million comprised of $50 million in consideration in each case if, on or prior to December 31, 2019, there is a period of 20 trading days out of a period of 30 consecutive trading days where (i) the average of the NYMEX natural gas strip price for the months comprising the year 2022 equals or exceeds $3.00/mmbtu as calculated pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the average of the NYMEX natural gas price strip prices for the months comprising the year 2023 equals or exceeds $3.25/mmbtu as calculated pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (such contingent payments, the “Contingent Payments”).
On October 29, 2018, the Company completed the sale of the Designated Properties for net proceeds of approximately $1.868 billion in cash, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The net proceeds include a $147 million adjustment to the purchase price originally set forth in the Purchase Agreement as agreed by the parties at the closing. The price adjustment is attributable to various items, including, but not limited to revenues and expenses incurred after an effective date of January 1, 2018. The net proceeds do not include the Contingent Payments.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations are derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 gives effect to the disposition of the Designated Properties as if it had occurred on September 30, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflect the disposition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto and the historical financial statements, including the notes thereto, of the Company included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2018 and in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The historical consolidated financial statements have been adjusted in the pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the disposition of the Designated Properties, (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results following the disposition.
The preparation of the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is based on financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent the Company's financial position or what the actual results of operations would have been had the transaction occurred on the respective dates assumed, nor is it necessarily indicative of the Company’s future operating results. However, the pro forma adjustments reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflect estimates and assumptions that the Company’s management believes to be reasonable.
Note 2. Balance Sheet Pro Forma Adjustments
(a)
Adjustment to reflect net proceeds of $1.868 billion in cash from the sale of the Company’s Designated Properties. The adjustment does not include the Contingent Payments but does include $147 million in agreed adjustments to the purchase price.
(b)
Adjustment to reflect the reduction to oil, natural gas and NGL properties for the sale of the Designated Properties. The historical value of the proved properties sold was determined by allocating the historical net book value of the Company's full cost pool based on the fair value of the oil, natural gas and NGL properties included in the Designated Properties relative to the fair value of the Company's full cost pool as of September 30, 2018. The fair value of the oil, natural gas and NGL properties was estimated using a discounted cash flow model, with future cash flows based upon estimated oil, natural gas and NGL reserve quantities, forward strip oil, natural gas and NGL prices and other market pricing estimates, as well as pricing differentials to reflect location and quality adjustments, as of September 30, 2018, discounted to present value using the Company's risk-weighted assessments for proved reserves and a market-based weighted average cost of capital.
(c)
Adjustment to apply $806 million of the historical cost basis of unproved oil, natural gas and NGL properties associated with the sale of the Company’s Designated Properties as an adjustment to the loss on the sale.
(d)
Adjustment to reduce other property and equipment by $47 million for the sale of the Company’s Designated Properties other property and equipment and the associated accumulated depreciation of $15 million.
(e)
Adjustment to reflect the elimination of $9 million of asset retirement obligations (including $1 million of short-term obligations and $8 million of long-term obligations), associated with the Company’s Designated Properties.
(f)
Adjustment to reflect the loss on the Designated Properties sale. The loss was calculated as the difference between the proceeds received less the historical value of the Designated Properties (as discussed in (b), (c), (d) and (e) above). A loss was recognized in accordance with full cost pool accounting based on the anticipated significant alteration of the relationship between the Company's capitalized costs and proved reserves as a result of the Designated Properties sale. The loss has not been included in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations due to its non-recurring nature.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Note 3. Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations Pro Forma Adjustments
(g)
Adjustment to reflect the reduction of oil, natural gas and NGL revenues and direct operating expenses attributable to the Designated Properties.
(h)
Adjustment to reflect the reduction of marketing revenues and marketing expenses attributable to the Designated Properties.
(i)
Adjustment to reflect the reduction of oil, natural gas and NGL gathering, processing and transportation attributable to the Designated Properties.
(j)
Adjustment to reduce production taxes for the production of natural gas, oil and NGL relating to the Designated Properties.
(k)
Adjustment to reflect the reduction in depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expense based on the production volumes attributable to the Designated Properties sold and revision to the Company’s DD&A rate reflecting the reserve volumes and net book value sold. DD&A is calculated using the unit of production method under full cost accounting.
(l)
Adjustment to reflect the reduction in depreciation and amortization attributable to the sale of the Company’s Designated Properties other property and equipment.
(m)
Adjustment to reflect the increased interest expense associated with the change in the amount of interest capitalized on the Company's Designated Properties. The reclassification of the historical cost basis of unproved oil, natural gas and NGL properties changed the amount of interest capitalized.
(n)
Adjustment to reflect the change in earnings allocated to participating securities associated with the sale of the Company's Designated Properties. Participating securities consist of unvested restricted stock issued to the Company's employees and non-employee directors that provide dividend rights.
