Forward-Looking Statements

This presentation includes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to future events and anticipated results of operations,

business strategies and other aspects of our operations or operating results. In many cases you can identify forward-looking statements by

terminology such as “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “estimate,” “continue,” “potential,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “will,” “objective,”

“guidance,” “outlook,” “effort,” “expect,” “believe,” “predict,” “budget,” “projection,” “goal,” “forecast,” “target” or similar words. Statements may be

forward-looking even in the absence of these particular words. Where, in any forward-looking statement, the Company expresses an expectation

or belief as to future results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, there can

be no assurance that such expectation or belief will result or be achieved. The actual results of operations can and will be affected by a variety of

risks and other matters including, but not limited to, changes in commodity prices (including geographic basis differentials); changes in expected

levels of natural gas and oil reserves or production; operating hazards, drilling risks, unsuccessful exploratory activities; natural disasters; limited

access to capital or significantly higher cost of capital related to illiquidity or uncertainty in the domestic or international financial markets;

international monetary conditions; unexpected cost increases in service or other costs related to drilling and completion activities; potential

liability for remedial actions under existing or future environmental regulations; failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals; potential liability

resulting from pending or future litigation; and general domestic and international economic and political conditions; as well as changes in tax,

environmental and other laws applicable to our business. Other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in

the forward-looking statements include other economic, business, competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting our business generally as set

forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Unless legally required, Southwestern Energy Company undertakes no

obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors – The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and

possible reserves. We use the terms "resource" and “EUR” in this presentation that the SEC’s guidelines prohibit us from including in filings with

the SEC. The quarterly reserves data included in this release are estimates we prepared that have not been audited by our independent reserve

engineers. All such estimates are inherently more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and are subject to substantially greater risk of

actually being realized. U.S. investors are urged to consider closely the oil and gas disclosures and associated risk factors in our Form 10-K

and other reports and filings with the SEC. Copies are available from the SEC and from the SWN website.

This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and net cash flow, including certain

key statistics and estimates. We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of

America (“GAAP”). However, management believes certain non-GAAP performance measures may provide users of this financial information

additional meaningful comparisons between current results and the results of our peers and of prior periods. Please see the Appendix for

definitions and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures that are based on reconcilable historical information.

The contents of this presentation are updated as of October 26, 2017 unless otherwise indicated.

up 75% compared to the 3Q 2016

• Added to 2018 hedge position which now has ~473 Bcf hedged at an average floor price of

approximately $3/Mcf with upside potential on over 62% of hedged volumes

• Progressed Tioga County development with first four-well development pad delivering initial

production rate of over 80 MMcf per day

• Placed a three-well pad to sales in western Susquehanna County acreage with combined

maximum rate of over 62 MMcf per day

• Demonstrated repeated reservoir deliverability with second Company-drilled Utica well

• Brought two additional encouraging Moorefield delineation wells online continuing to confirm our

geologic and reservoir modeling of the play

• Renegotiated Fayetteville transportation agreement, increasing 2018 cash flow by ~$45 million,

subject to FERC approval

• Commenced water infrastructure project in SW Appalachia that is expected to reduce total well

costs by approximately $500,000 per well beginning in late 2018

• Created approximately $1.4 million per well of incremental value from immediately reduced

processing rates in the lean gas acreage of Southwest Appalachia while providing a competitive

dry gas gathering solution in southern Utica acreage

Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Net Cash Flow

We define net cash flow as cash flow from operating activities adjusted for changes in operating assets and liabilities and

restructuring charges. Management presents this measure because (i) management uses it as an indicator of an oil and gas

exploration and production company’s ability to internally fund exploration and development activities and to service or incur

additional debt, (ii) changes in operating assets and liabilities relate to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements which the

company may not control and (iii) changes in operating assets and liabilities may not relate to the period in which the operating

activities occurred. These adjusted amounts are not a measure of financial performance under GAAP.

Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stock

Additional non-GAAP financial measures we may present from time to time are adjusted net income attributable to common stock and adjusted diluted earnings per share

attributable to Southwestern Energy stockholders, both of which exclude certain charges or amounts shown in the tables below. Management presents these measures because

(i) they are consistent with the manner in which the Company’s performance is measured relative to the performance of its peers, (ii) these measures are more comparable to

earnings estimates provided by securities analysts, and (iii) charges or amounts excluded cannot be reasonably estimated and guidance provided by the Company excludes

information regarding these types of items. These adjusted amounts are not a measure of financial performance under GAAP.

(1) 2017, 2016 and 2015 primarily relate to the exclusion of certain discrete tax adjustments due to an increase to the valuation allowance against the Company’s deferred tax assets.

(2) 2014 primarily relates to the exclusion of certain discrete tax adjustments due to a redetermination of deferred state tax liabilities to reflect updated state apportionment factors.

(3) 2016 includes a $51 million loss for the redemption of certain senior notes and a $6 million loss related to the unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts associated with the extinguished debt

which were included in other interest charges.

Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA is defined as net income plus interest, income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA less gains (losses) on sale

of assets and gains (losses) on derivatives (net of settlement) plus write-down of inventory, non-cash stock based compensation, restructuring charges and loss on debt

extinguishment. Southwestern has included information concerning EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because they are used by certain investors as a measure of the ability of a

company to service or incur indebtedness and because it is a financial measure commonly used in the energy industry. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered

in isolation or as a substitute for net income, net cash provided by operating activities or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of

the Company's profitability or liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Net income is a

financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The table below reconciles historical Adjusted EBITDA with historical

net income.

Explanation and Reconciliation: Proved Developed Finding and Development Costs

Proved developed (PDP) finding and development (F&D) costs are computed here by dividing exploration and development capital costs

incurred, excluding capitalized interest and expenses, for the indicated period by PDP reserve additions and proved undeveloped (PUD)

conversions for that same period. At times, adjustments are made to this calculation in order to improve usefulness for investors. The methods

used by Southwestern to calculate its PDP F&D costs may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar

measures and, as a result, Southwestern’s PDP F&D costs may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.
