Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

Approach Resources Inc. (the “Company”) plans to add a third horizontal rig to its drilling program in January 2013 to accelerate the development of its Wolfcamp oil shale play. The Company’s preliminary 2013 capital expenditure budget is $260 million and includes operating three horizontal rigs and one vertical rig to drill approximately 35-40 horizontal wells and 12 vertical wells, respectively. We also plan to recomplete 10 wells in the Wolffork in 2013. The preliminary 2013 capital budget excludes acquisitions.

The Company’s 2013 capital budget is subject to change depending upon a number of factors, including additional data on the Company’s Wolfcamp oil shale resource play, results of horizontal and vertical drilling and recompletions, economic and industry conditions at the time of drilling, prevailing and anticipated prices for oil, NGLs and gas, the availability of sufficient capital resources for drilling prospects, the Company’s financial results and the availability of lease extensions and renewals on reasonable terms.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 7.01 of this current report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.
