    Comstock Resources Investment Narrative Recap

    To own Comstock Resources, you need to believe Western Haynesville remains a competitive, cash generative gas play despite its geographic concentration and capital intensity. The Texas Natural Gas-Fired Power Generation Hub announcement ties Comstock’s core acreage to a potential new local demand anchor, which could support near term pricing and offtake, but the project is still subject to definitive agreements and construction milestones, so it does not remove execution or balance sheet risk.

    The most directly relevant prior announcement is Comstock’s April 2025 carbon capture agreement with BKV at Western Haynesville processing plants. Paired with the new power hub collaboration, it highlights how Western Haynesville is becoming a focal point for gas supply linked to lower carbon solutions, which could matter for future contract terms and capital access, even as production concentration and ongoing capex needs remain central catalysts and risks.
