NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Financial Statements
Nature of Operations. EQT Corporation is an integrated natural gas company with upstream, gathering and transmission operations focused in the Appalachian Basin.
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to "EQT" refer to EQT Corporation and references to the "Company" refer to EQT Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively, in each case unless otherwise noted or indicated.
Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals unless otherwise disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, results of operations and changes in equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2025 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Principles of Consolidation and Noncontrolling Interests. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of EQT and all subsidiaries, ventures and partnerships in which EQT directly or indirectly owns a controlling interest and variable interest entities for which EQT is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company records noncontrolling interests in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for any non-wholly owned consolidated subsidiary. See Note 9 for additional information on the Company's consolidation of the Midstream Joint Venture (defined in Note 9) and the allocation of the Midstream Joint Venture's income.
Reclassification. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. In addition, as discussed further in Note 2, effective December 31, 2025, the Company renamed its previously reported "Production" segment as the "Upstream" segment.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2026, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2026-02, Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818), to establish a new accounting model for environmental credits and related obligations, including guidance on their recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact ASU 2026-02 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements, to clarify guidance, correct technical errors, remove outdated language and improve consistency across various topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact ASU 2025-12 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures and does not expect its adoption to be material.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, to clarify the scope and presentation requirements for interim GAAP financial statements and to consolidate interim disclosure requirements. Under this ASU, entities must disclose material events or changes occurring after year end that affect interim periods. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is evaluating the impact ASU 2025-11 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, to improve the disclosures about a public business entity's expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales; selling, general and administrative expense; and research and development). This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The requirements should be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is evaluating the impact ASU 2024-03 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
2. Financial Information by Business Segment
The Company has three
Effective December 31, 2025, the Company renamed its previously reported "Production" segment as the "Upstream" segment to better align with the nature of the Company's operations and the Company's internal reporting framework. This change had no impact on the structure of the Company's internal organization, including the composition of its reportable segments.
The Company's Upstream segment comprises the Company's natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs) and oil extraction, development and production business and supporting operations. The Company's Gathering segment owns and operates the Company's gathering system, which has extensive overlap with the Company's Upstream segment operations, and processing facility. The Company's Transmission segment operates the Company's Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) regulated interstate transmission and storage system, which has multiple interconnect points to other interstate pipelines and local distribution companies. In addition, the Company's investment in the MVP Joint Venture (defined in Note 8) is reported in its Transmission segment.
The accounting policies of the Company's segments are the same as those described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Items that are managed on a consolidated basis, including cash and cash equivalents, debt, income taxes and amounts related to the Company's corporate function, and items related to the Company's energy transition initiatives have not been allocated to the Company's reportable segments. These items are presented as "Other."

EQT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The Company's chief operating decision maker (the CODM), Toby Z. Rice, President and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance of, and allocates resources to, the Company's reportable segments using a profitability metric of operating income. The CODM compares each segment's operating income and return on assets when evaluating performance of the Company's reportable segments and considers actual-to-forecast variances in operating income when allocating capital and personnel to the Company's reportable segments. For the Company's Transmission segment, the CODM also reviews equity earnings recognized from, and the carrying value of, the Company's investment in the MVP Joint Venture.
Substantially all of the Company's operating revenues and assets are generated and located in the United States.
Total segment operating income. The following tables present information about segment revenue, segment profit or loss and significant segment expenses and include a reconciliation of total segment amounts to the Company's consolidated totals.

3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil. Under the Company's natural gas, NGLs and oil sales contracts, the Company generally considers the delivery of each unit (million British thermal units (MMBtu) or barrel (Bbl)) to be a separate performance obligation. These performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time upon delivery to the designated sales point, at which time control transfers to the customer. Sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil presented in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations represent the Company's share of revenues net of royalties and exclude revenue interests owned by others. When selling natural gas, NGLs and oil on behalf of royalty or working interest owners, the Company acts as an agent and reports the revenue on a net basis.
Pipeline revenue. The Company provides gathering, transmission and storage services under firm and interruptible service contracts. Firm service contracts generally require the customer to pay a firm reservation fee, which is a fixed, monthly fee to reserve an agreed-upon amount of pipeline or storage capacity regardless of whether the customer uses the capacity. The Company recognizes firm reservation fee revenue evenly over the contract period as it satisfies its stand-ready obligation to provide capacity. Revenue from volumetric-based fees is recognized as services are performed based on volumes gathered, transported or stored, and the amount invoiced generally corresponds to the value of the Company's performance. Interruptible service contracts require the customer to pay volumetric-based fees and generally do not guarantee access to the pipeline or storage facility. Certain gathering agreements include minimum volume commitments (MVCs), for which revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied.

4. Derivative Instruments
The Company's primary market risk exposure is the volatility of future prices for natural gas and NGLs, which can affect the Company's operating results. The Company uses derivative commodity instruments to hedge its cash flows from sales of produced natural gas and NGLs. The overall objective of the Company's hedging program is to protect cash flows from undue exposure to the risk of changing commodity prices.
The derivative commodity instruments used by the Company are primarily swap, collar and option agreements. These agreements may result in payments to, or receipt of payments from, counterparties based on the differential between two prices for the commodity. The Company uses these agreements to hedge its New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) and basis exposure. The Company may also use other contractual agreements when executing its commodity hedging strategy. The Company typically enters into over-the-counter (OTC) derivative commodity instruments with financial institutions, and the creditworthiness of all counterparties is regularly monitored.
18
EQT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The Company does not designate any of its derivative instruments as cash flow hedges; therefore, all changes in fair value of the Company's derivative instruments are recognized in operating revenues in gain (loss) on derivatives in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value on a gross basis. These derivative instruments are reported as either current assets or current liabilities due to their highly liquid nature. The Company can net settle its derivative instruments at any time. See Note 5 for a description of the fair value hierarchy and the valuation techniques and significant inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company's derivative instruments.
Contracts that result in physical delivery of a commodity expected to be sold by the Company in the normal course of business are generally designated as normal sales and are exempt from derivative accounting. Contracts that result in the physical receipt or delivery of a commodity but are not designated or do not meet all of the criteria to qualify for the normal purchase and normal sale scope exception are subject to derivative accounting.
The Company's OTC derivative instruments generally require settlement in cash. The Company also enters into exchange traded derivative commodity instruments that are generally settled with offsetting positions. Settlements of derivative commodity instruments are reported as a component of cash flows from operating activities in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Cash Flows.
With respect to the derivative commodity instruments held by the Company, the Company hedged portions of its expected sales of production and portions of its basis exposure covering approximately 900 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas and 4,615 thousand barrels (Mbbl) of NGLs as of June 30, 2026 and approximately 945 Bcf of natural gas and 4,022 Mbbl of NGLs as of December 31, 2025. The open positions at both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 had maturities extending through December 2030.
Certain of the Company's OTC derivative instrument contracts provide that, if EQT's credit rating assigned by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. (Moody's), S&P Global Ratings (S&P) or Fitch Ratings Service (Fitch) is below the agreed-upon credit rating threshold (typically, below investment grade) and if the associated derivative liability exceeds the agreed-upon dollar threshold for such credit rating, the counterparty to such contract can require the Company to deposit collateral. Similarly, if such counterparty's credit rating assigned by Moody's, S&P or Fitch is below the agreed-upon credit rating threshold and if the associated derivative liability exceeds the agreed-upon dollar threshold for such credit rating, the Company can require the counterparty to deposit collateral with the Company. Such collateral can be up to 100 % of the derivative liability. Investment grade refers to the quality of a company's credit as assessed by one or more credit rating agencies. To be considered investment grade, a company must be rated "Baa3" or higher by Moody's, "BBB–" or higher by S&P and "BBB–" or higher by Fitch. Anything below these ratings is considered non-investment grade. As of June 30, 2026, EQT's senior notes were rated "Baa3" by Moody's, "BBB–" by S&P and "BBB" by Fitch.
When the net fair value of any of the Company's OTC derivative instrument contracts represents a liability to the Company that is in excess of the agreed-upon dollar threshold for the Company's then-applicable credit rating, the counterparty has the right to require the Company to remit funds as a margin deposit in an amount equal to the portion of the derivative liability that is in excess of the dollar threshold amount. The Company records these deposits as a current asset in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the aggregate fair value of the Company's OTC derivative instruments with credit rating risk-related contingent features in a net liability position was $2.4 million and $4.4 million, respectively, for which no

EQT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
When the Company enters into exchange traded natural gas contracts, exchanges may require the Company to remit funds to the corresponding broker as good-faith deposits to guard against the risks associated with changing market conditions. The Company is required to make such deposits based on an established initial margin requirement and the net liability position, if any, of the fair value of the associated contracts. The Company records these deposits as a current asset in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When the fair value of such contracts is in a net asset position, the broker may remit funds to the Company. The Company records these deposits as a current liability in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The initial margin requirements are established by the exchanges based on the price, volatility and the time to expiration of the contract. The margin requirements are subject to change at the exchanges' discretion. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was $22.9 million and $36.8 million, respectively, of such deposits recorded as a current asset in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company has netting agreements with financial institutions and its brokers that permit net settlement of gross commodity derivative assets against gross commodity derivative liabilities.

5. Fair Value Measurements
The Company records its financial instruments, which are principally derivative instruments, at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments using quoted market prices when available and, when not available, valuation models that incorporate market-based inputs, including forward price curves, discount rates, volatilities and counterparty non-performance risk. Nonperformance risk considers the effect of the Company's credit standing on the fair value of liabilities and the effect of the counterparty's credit standing on the fair value of assets. The Company estimates nonperformance risk by analyzing publicly available market information, including a comparison of the yield on debt instruments with credit ratings similar to EQT's or the counterparty's credit rating and the yield on a risk-free instrument.
The Company has categorized its assets and liabilities recorded at fair value into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Assets and liabilities that use Level 2 inputs primarily include the Company's swap, collar and option agreements.
Exchange traded commodity swaps have Level 1 inputs. The fair value of the commodity swaps with Level 2 inputs is based on standard industry income approach models that use significant observable inputs, including, but not limited to, NYMEX natural gas forward curves, SOFR-based discount rates, basis forward curves and NGLs forward curves. The Company's collars and options are valued using standard industry income approach option models. The significant observable inputs used by the option pricing models include NYMEX forward curves, natural gas volatilities and SOFR-based discount rates.

The carrying value of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities. The carrying value of borrowings under EQT's and Eureka Midstream, LLC's (Eureka) revolving credit facilities approximates fair value as each facility's interest rate is based on prevailing market rates. The Company considers all of these fair values to be Level 1 fair value measurements.
The Company estimates the fair value of its senior notes using established fair value methodology. Because not all of the Company's senior notes are actively traded, their fair value is a Level 2 fair value measurement. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company's senior notes had a fair value of approximately $5.4 billion and $7.7 billion, respectively, and a carrying value of approximately $5.3 billion and $7.4 billion, respectively, inclusive of any current portion. See Note 7 for further discussion of the Company's debt.
The Company recognizes transfers between Levels as of the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the periods presented.
See Note 8 for a discussion of the fair value measurement of the Company's investment in the Investment Fund (defined in Note 8). See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a discussion of the fair value measurement and impairment assessments of the Company's property, plant and equipment, investments in unconsolidated entities, net intangible assets, goodwill and asset retirement obligations.
6. Income Taxes
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company calculated its provision for income taxes by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to "ordinary" income or loss (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring items) for the period. Any refinements to prior period taxes made in the current period due to new information are reflected as adjustments in the current period. There were no material changes to the Company's methodology for determining unrecognized tax benefits during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
The Midstream Joint Venture and Eureka Midstream Holdings, LLC (Eureka Holdings) are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. As a result, income attributable to noncontrolling interests is included in pre-tax income but not subject to income tax expense, which impacts the Company's effective tax rate.

EQT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded income tax expense at an effective tax rate of 22.0 % and 21.1 %, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was higher compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of state taxes net of valuation allowances, partly offset by income attributable to noncontrolling interests. The Company's effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was higher compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of state taxes, partly offset by income attributable to noncontrolling interests and excess tax benefits from share-based payments.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Under the MVP Joint Venture's limited liability company agreement (the MVP LLC Agreement), the Company is required to provide performance assurance to fund its proportionate share of the construction budget for MVP Southgate. Under the MVP LLC Agreement, acceptable forms of performance assurance include a guarantee from the Company, a letter of credit or cash collateral. In July 2025, the Company issued a performance guarantee in favor of MVP B in the amount of $14.2 million. As a result of the FERC's March 23, 2026 authorization to proceed with construction of the MVP Southgate facilities in Virginia, the Company's existing performance guarantee was terminated and replaced with a new performance assurance equal to 33 % of the Company's proportionate share of the remaining capital commitments under the most recently approved construction budget. Accordingly, in April 2026, the Company issued a new performance guarantee in favor of MVP B in the amount of $38.2 million.
MVP C. Series C of the MVP Joint Venture (MVP C) was formed on November 1, 2025 for the purpose of constructing and owning certain assets associated with the MVP Boost project (MVP Boost). As of June 30, 2026, MVP C's members consisted of the Company and affiliates of NextEra, AltaGas, RGC and Vega.

MVP Boost is a contemplated project to add compression to MVP Mainline. MVP Boost is projected to increase the capacity on MVP Mainline by 0.6 Bcf per day. As designed, MVP Boost would add compression at three existing compressor stations in West Virginia and construct a new compressor station in Montgomery County, Virginia.
On October 23, 2025, the MVP Joint Venture filed an application with the FERC for authorization to construct MVP Boost. Pending receipt of regulatory approvals, MVP Boost is expected to be placed into service by mid-2028. MVP Boost is estimated to have a total cost of approximately $400 million to $540 million, excluding AFUDC. The Company will fund its proportionate share through capital contributions to MVP C.
Under the MVP LLC Agreement, the Company is required to provide performance assurance to fund its proportionate share of the construction budget for MVP Boost. Under the MVP LLC Agreement, acceptable forms of performance assurance include a guarantee from the Company, a letter of credit or cash collateral. In November 2025, the Company issued a performance guarantee in favor of MVP C in the amount of $14.8 million. In April 2026, as a result of the MVP C Interest Acquisition (defined below), the Company amended its existing performance guarantee, increasing the amount to $16.0 million. Following the FERC's initial authorization to proceed with construction of MVP Boost, the Company's existing performance guarantee will be terminated and the Company will be required to provide a new performance assurance equal to 33 % of the Company's proportionate share of the remaining capital commitments under the most recently approved construction budget.
MVP A and MVP C Interest Acquisitions. On March 30, 2026, the Company completed its acquisition of an approximately 3.94 3.94 213.9 million, consisting of $198.3 million for the MVP A Interest Acquisition, of which $98.4 million was funded by the BXCI Affiliate (defined in Note 9), and $15.6 million for the MVP C Interest Acquisition. The Company funded its share of the consideration for the MVP A and MVP C Interest Acquisitions with cash on hand. The MVP A and MVP C Interest Acquisitions increased the Company's unamortized basis differences, a portion of which is amortized in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations.
In January 2026, NextEra completed its acquisition of an approximately 2.66 % interest in each of MVP A and MVP C from ConEd pursuant to a similar preferential buy-out right under the MVP LLC Agreement. Following these acquisitions, ConEd is no longer a member of MVP A or MVP C.

As of June 30, 2026, the Midstream Joint Venture's assets included approximately 950 miles of FERC-regulated interstate pipelines, the Hammerhead Pipeline System (a gathering header pipeline that connects production in Pennsylvania and West Virginia to MVP Mainline and other interstate pipelines) and a 53.2 % ownership interest in MVP A.
Pursuant to the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of the Midstream Joint Venture (the JV Agreement), the Midstream Joint Venture is required to distribute available cash flow to its members at least quarterly. Under the JV Agreement, available cash flow is distributed 60 % to the BXCI Affiliate (as the holder of the Class B units in the Midstream Joint Venture) and 40 % to the Company (as the holder of Class A units in the Midstream Joint Venture) until the BXCI Affiliate achieves the Base Return (as defined in the JV Agreement).
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Midstream Joint Venture paid distributions of $238.0 million to the BXCI Affiliate. Distributions from the Midstream Joint Venture to the Company are eliminated in consolidation. As of June 30, 2026, the remaining amount required to achieve the Base Return was approximately $3.4 billion.
Based on the provisions of the JV Agreement, the Company allocates the Midstream Joint Venture's net income between the Company and the BXCI Affiliate based on changes in each member's claim on the Midstream Joint Venture's book value. The Company recognizes net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest based on the amounts that each member would hypothetically receive at the balance sheet date under the JV Agreement's liquidation provisions, assuming that the net assets of the Midstream Joint Venture were liquidated at their recorded amounts and after taking into account any capital transactions between the Company and the BXCI Affiliate.

Such antidilutive securities included the stock options described in Note 11, which have exercise prices exceeding the average stock price of EQT common stock.
11. Share-Based Compensation Plans
Effective April 27, 2026, the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors granted an aggregate total of 3,650,000 non-qualified stock options to EQT's executive officers under the EQT Corporation 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The grant of stock options to each executive officer was allocated equally to three separate tranches, with each tranche having a strike price (i.e., an exercise price) set at a significant premium to the then-current market value of EQT common stock (specifically, the exercise price for these tranches was set at $90 , $95 and $100 per share). Subject to the conditions set forth in the option award agreement, the three tranches vest and become exercisable on the third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the grant date, with the option award agreement expiring on April 27, 2033. Consistent with the objectives of the Company's executive compensation program, these stock options were designed to further align executive long-term incentive compensation opportunity with the long-term interests of the Company's shareholders and to support the retention of the Company's executive officers.
The fair value of the Company's stock option grants was estimated at the grant date using a lattice option-pricing model. The key assumptions used in the valuation are summarized in the table below.

emissions; negative public perception of the fossil fuels industry; increased consumer demand for alternatives to natural gas; environmental and weather risks, including the possible impacts of climate change; and disruptions to our business due to recently completed divestitures, acquisitions and other significant strategic transactions. These and other risks and uncertainties are described under the "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and may be updated by other documents we subsequently file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and, except as required by law, we do not intend to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Recent and Significant Events
Blackline Midstream Acquisition
On July 21, 2026, we completed our acquisition (the Blackline Midstream Acquisition) of all of the operating subsidiaries of Blackline Midstream, LLC, an owner and operator of liquefied propane gas storage, distribution and marine terminal facilities and associated assets on the Piscataqua River in Newington, New Hampshire and Providence, Rhode Island. The purchase price for the Blackline Midstream Acquisition was approximately $77 million, subject to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments. We funded the consideration with borrowings under EQT's revolving credit facility.
MVP A and MVP C Interest Acquisitions
On March 30, 2026, we completed our acquisitions (the MVP A and MVP C Interest Acquisitions) of an approximately 3.94% interest in each of MVP A and MVP C (each defined in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) from an affiliate of Con Edison Gas Pipeline and Storage, LLC pursuant to a preferential buy-out right under the MVP LLC Agreement (defined in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Total consideration for our acquisition of equity interests in MVP A (MVP A Interest Acquisition), excluding transaction costs, was $198.3 million, of which $98.4 million was funded by the BXCI Affiliate (defined in Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Total consideration for our acquisition of equity interests in MVP C was $15.6 million. We funded our share of the consideration for the MVP A and MVP C Interest Acquisitions with cash on hand.
Olympus Energy Acquisition
Our financial results for 2026 reflect our operation of the assets acquired in our acquisition (the Olympus Energy Acquisition) of certain oil and gas properties and related upstream and midstream assets from Olympus Energy LLC, Hyperion Midstream LLC and Bow & Arrow Land Company LLC, which was completed on July 1, 2025.
Trends and Uncertainties
Commodity prices were volatile in the first half of 2026 and we expect commodity prices to continue to be volatile for the remainder of 2026 due to macroeconomic uncertainty, changes to the regulatory environment and geopolitical instability and tensions, including in the Middle East, Venezuela, Russia and Ukraine, and potential further imposition of domestic and foreign tariffs. Our revenue, profitability, liquidity and financial position will continue to be impacted in the future by the market prices for natural gas and, to a lesser extent, NGLs and oil.
In response to natural gas price volatility and to optimize in-basin pricing, we implement strategic curtailments from time to time. Strategic curtailments during the second quarter of 2026 were below our previously disclosed guidance and were not significant to our results. Low natural gas prices or volatility in the natural gas market may result in further adjustments to our 2026 planned development schedule and/or adjustments to the development schedule of non-operated wells in which we have a working interest. We cannot control or otherwise influence the development schedule of non-operated wells in which we have a working interest. Adjustments to our 2026 planned development schedule or the development schedule of non-operated wells in which we have a working interest, including due to declines in natural gas prices, the pace of well completions, access to sand and water to conduct drilling operations, access to sufficient pipeline takeaway capacity, unscheduled downtime at processing facilities or otherwise, could impact our future sales volume, operating revenues and expenses, per unit metrics and capital expenditures.

EQT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) into law. We expect the enactment of the OBBBA to favorably impact our future projected cash income tax obligations by deferring the payment of a significant portion of current federal income taxes.
President Trump has also executed several executive orders, some of which impact the oil and gas industry, and he and others in Congress have indicated the potential for further changes to regulations, many of which could impact the oil and gas industry, as well as the implementation of tariffs on foreign goods and services. It is uncertain to what extent such changes in regulations and tariffs will impact our business. Tariffs on foreign goods and services could result in other countries instituting tariffs on U.S. goods and services, which could impact the demand for and price of natural gas, increase the price of supplies and raw materials that we rely on to conduct our business, and impact interest rates. A changing regulatory environment and domestic or foreign tariffs could ultimately impact our future sales volume, operating revenues and expenses, per unit metrics and capital expenditures.
Consolidated Results of Operations
Net income attributable to EQT Corporation for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was approximately $211 million, $0.34 per diluted share, compared to approximately $784 million, $1.30 per diluted share, for the same period in 2025. The decrease was driven primarily by lower derivative gains and lower average realized natural gas prices, partly offset by lower income tax expense and lower legal reserves.
Net income attributable to EQT Corporation for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was approximately $1,699 million, $2.70 per diluted share, compared to approximately $1,026 million, $1.70 per diluted share, for the same period in 2025. The increase was driven primarily by higher natural gas sales, lower legal reserves and lower interest expense, partly offset by a loss on derivatives in 2026 compared to a gain in 2025, higher income tax expense and higher depreciation expense.
See "Average Realized Price Reconciliation" for a discussion and calculation of our average realized price, which is based on our Upstream segment's adjusted operating revenues (Upstream adjusted operating revenues), a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that has been reconciled to total Upstream operating revenues in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation." See "Business Segment Results of Operations" for a discussion of segment operating revenues and expenses and "Other Income Statement Items" for a discussion of other income statement items. See "Investing Activities" under "Capital Resources and Liquidity" for a discussion of capital expenditures, including by business segment.
Average Realized Price Reconciliation
The following table presents detailed natural gas and liquids operational information to assist in the understanding of our consolidated operations, including the calculation of our average realized price ($/Mcfe), which is based on Upstream adjusted operating revenues, a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure. Upstream adjusted operating revenues is presented because it is an important measure we use to evaluate period-to-period comparisons of earnings trends. Upstream adjusted operating revenues should not be considered as an alternative to total Upstream operating revenues. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation" for a reconciliation of Upstream adjusted operating revenues to total Upstream operating revenues, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation
The table below reconciles Upstream adjusted operating revenues, a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure, to total Upstream operating revenues, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. See Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of total Upstream operating revenues to EQT Corporation operating revenues as reported in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations.
Upstream adjusted operating revenues (also referred to in this report as total natural gas and liquids sales, including cash settled derivatives) is presented because it is an important measure we use to evaluate period-to-period comparisons of earnings trends. Upstream adjusted operating revenues is defined as total Upstream operating revenues, less the revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement and Upstream other revenues. We believe that Upstream adjusted operating revenues provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it helps facilitate comparisons of operating performance and earnings trends across periods. Upstream adjusted operating revenues reflects only the impact of settled derivative contracts; thus, the measure excludes the often-volatile revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement. The measure also excludes Upstream other revenues, which consists of costs of, and recoveries on, pipeline capacity releases and other revenues.

Business Segment Results of Operations
We have three reportable segments consisting of Upstream, Gathering and Transmission.
Effective December 31, 2025, we renamed our previously reported "Production" segment as the "Upstream" segment to better align with the nature of our operations and our internal reporting framework. This change had no impact on the structure of our internal organization, including the composition of our reportable segments.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales of Natural Gas, NGLs and Oil. Sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil decreased by approximately $90 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, reflecting a decrease of approximately $288 million from lower average sales price, partly offset by approximately $198 million from increased sales volumes.
Average sales price decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period for 2025 due primarily to a lower NYMEX price, partly offset by a favorable basis differential and higher liquids prices. Sales volume increased for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period for 2025 due primarily to a 48 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe) increase from the assets acquired in the Olympus Energy Acquisition, increases from wells turned-in-line since the second quarter of 2025 and increases from well performance optimization.
Gain on Derivatives. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized a gain on derivatives of approximately $45 million related primarily to increases in the fair market value of our NYMEX swaps and options of approximately $37 million due to decreases in NYMEX forward prices and increases in the fair market value of our basis and liquids swaps of approximately $8 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized a gain on derivatives of approximately $720 million related primarily to increases in the fair market value of our NYMEX swaps and options of approximately $682 million due to decreases in NYMEX forward prices and increases in the fair market value of our basis and liquids swaps of approximately $38 million.
Gathering Expense. Gathering expense increased on an absolute and per Mcfe basis for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to higher volumes gathered by third parties from wells turned-in-line in the first quarter of 2026.
Processing Expense. Processing expense decreased on an absolute and per Mcfe basis for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to decreased production of gas that requires processing. In addition, on a per Mcfe basis, processing expense decreased due primarily to higher sales volume.
Transportation and Processing Expense to Affiliate. Affiliate transportation and processing expense increased on an absolute basis for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to our Gathering segment's ownership of the gathering assets acquired in the Olympus Energy Acquisition, partly offset by the declining rate structures under a certain gas gathering agreement with our Gathering segment. On a per Mcfe basis, affiliate transportation and processing expense decreased due primarily to higher sales volume as well as the declining rate structures under a certain gas gathering agreement with our Gathering segment.
Lease Operating Expense. Lease operating expense increased on an absolute and per Mcfe basis for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to costs from the assets acquired in the Olympus Energy Acquisition as well as higher water network and winter maintenance expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense increased on an absolute basis and per Mcfe basis for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to higher long-term incentive compensation costs and higher professional service costs.
Production Depletion Expense. Production depletion expense increased on an absolute basis for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to higher sales volumes, partly offset by a lower annual depletion rate.
Other Operating Expenses. Other operating expenses increased on an absolute basis for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to increased expense from changes in legal and environmental reserves, including from settlements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales of Natural Gas, NGLs and Oil. Sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil increased by approximately $1,105 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, reflecting an increase of approximately $713 million from higher average sales price and approximately $392 million from increased sales volumes.
Average sales price increased for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period for 2025 due primarily to a higher NYMEX price and a favorable basis differential, partly offset by lower NGL prices. Sales volume increased for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period for 2025 due primarily to a 96 Bcfe increase from the assets acquired in the Olympus Energy Acquisition, increases from wells turned-in-line since the second quarter of 2025 and increases from well performance optimization.
(Loss) Gain on Derivatives. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized a loss on derivatives of approximately $194 million related primarily to decreases in the fair market value of our basis and liquids swaps of approximately $157 million and decreases in the fair market value of our NYMEX swaps and options of approximately $37 million due to increases in NYMEX forward prices. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized a gain on derivatives of approximately $41 million related primarily to increases in the fair market value of our basis and liquids swaps of approximately $142 million, partly offset by decreases in the fair market value of our NYMEX swaps and options of approximately $101 million due to increases in NYMEX forward prices.
Gathering Expense. Gathering expense increased on an absolute and per Mcfe basis for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to higher volumes gathered by third parties from wells turned-in-line in the first quarter of 2026.
Transmission Expense. Transmission expense increased on an absolute basis for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to additional short-term capacity contracted on MVP Mainline (defined in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) of approximately $12 million and higher rates for capacity on the Rockies Express Pipeline, partly offset by expired capacity on the Columbia Gas Transmission system. On a per Mcfe basis, transmission expense decreased due primarily to higher sales volume, partly offset by the additional capacity and higher capacity charges.
Processing Expense. Processing expense decreased on an absolute and per Mcfe basis for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to decreased production of gas that requires processing.

Other operating expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized approximately $134 million of corporate other operating expense, net of expected insurance recoveries, for estimated loss contingencies related to a securities class action.
Income from Investments. Income from investments decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to lower equity earnings from our investment in Laurel Mountain Midstream, LLC (LMM). Income from investments increased for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to higher equity earnings from our investment in the MVP Joint Venture (defined in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) of approximately $35 million and an increase in the fair value of our investment in the Investment Fund (defined in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) of approximately $15 million, partly offset by lower equity earnings from our investment in LMM.

Loss on Debt Extinguishment. Loss on debt extinguishment increased by approximately $12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to the derecognition of unamortized fair value adjustments associated with debt redemptions, which resulted in a net loss of approximately $7 million in 2026 compared to a net gain of approximately $8 million in 2025, as well as higher net cash premiums, partly offset by lower financing fees. See Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of debt repayments during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense decreased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to the redemptions and repurchases of senior notes since the second quarter of 2025.
Income Tax Expense. See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Although we cannot provide any assurance, we believe cash flows from operating activities and availability under EQT's revolving credit facility should be sufficient to meet our cash requirements, including, but not limited to, normal operating needs, debt service obligations, planned capital expenditures and commitments for at least the next twelve months and, based on current expectations, for the long term.
Planned Capital Expenditures, Capital Contributions and Sales Volume
In the third quarter of 2026, we expect to spend approximately $710 million to $820 million in total capital expenditures. We expect to fund our capital expenditures with cash generated from operations and, if required, borrowings under EQT's revolving credit facility. Because we are the operator of a high percentage of our developed acreage, the amount and timing of certain of our capital expenditures is largely discretionary. We could choose to defer a portion of our planned 2026 capital expenditures depending on a variety of factors, including prevailing and anticipated prices for natural gas, NGLs and oil; the availability of necessary equipment, infrastructure and capital; the receipt and timing of required regulatory permits and approvals; and drilling, completion and acquisition costs.
In the third quarter of 2026, we expect to make approximately $60 million to $70 million of capital contributions to our equity method investments, including the MVP Joint Venture.
In the third quarter of 2026, we expect our sales volume to be 570 Bcfe to 620 Bcfe.
Material Cash Requirements
We have contractual commitments under our debt agreements, including interest payments and principal repayments. See Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of such contractual commitments, including maturity dates.
Through our controlling interest in the Midstream Joint Venture (defined in Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), we are required to distribute available cash flow to the BXCI Affiliate as the holder of the Midstream Joint Venture's Class B units at least quarterly, including to satisfy the Base Return (as defined in the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of the Midstream Joint Venture). See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
In January 2026, we entered into an agreement with a third-party owner and operator of LNG vessels pursuant to which we will lease two vessels for a 10-year term, with lease commencement expected in 2028. The leases are anticipated to result in undiscounted future minimum lease payments of approximately $295 million per vessel. The leases have not been recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as they have not yet commenced.
On July 21, 2026, we funded the consideration for the Blackline Midstream Acquisition of approximately $77 million with borrowings under EQT's revolving credit facility. See Note 12 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of the Blackline Midstream Acquisition.

Sources and Uses of Cash
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $4,103 million and $2,983 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was due primarily to higher cash operating revenues and lower net interest expense, partly offset by higher net cash settlements paid on derivatives and unfavorable changes in working capital.
Our cash flows from operating activities, including changes in working capital, are affected by movements in the market price for commodities. We are unable to predict such movements outside of the current market view as reflected in forward strip pricing. For a discussion of potential commodity market risks, refer to Item 1A., "Risk Factors – Natural gas, NGLs and oil price volatility, or a prolonged period of low natural gas, NGLs and oil prices, may have an adverse effect on our revenue, profitability, future rate of growth, liquidity and financial position." in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1,524 million and $1,198 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was attributable primarily to cash paid for the MVP A and MVP C Interest Acquisitions, including the portion paid by the BXCI Affiliate, and increased capital expenditures, partly offset by cash paid for the Olympus Energy Acquisition in 2025.
The following table summarizes our capital expenditures by segment.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $2,577 million and $1,431 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the primary uses of financing cash flows were the repayment and retirement of debt, distributions to the BXCI Affiliate and payment of dividends. The primary sources of financing cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were capital contributions from the BXCI Affiliate related to the MVP A Interest Acquisition of approximately $98 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the primary uses of financing cash flows were the repayment and retirement of debt, repayment of revolving credit facility borrowings, payment of dividends and distributions to the BXCI Affiliate.
See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of cash flows to and from the BXCI Affiliate.

EQT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On July 15, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.165 per share of EQT common stock, payable on September 1, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 5, 2026.
Depending on our actual and anticipated sources and uses of liquidity, prevailing market conditions and other factors, we may from time to time seek to redeem or repurchase our outstanding debt or equity securities through tender offers or other cash purchases in the open market or privately negotiated transactions. The amounts involved in any such transactions may be material. See Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of redemptions and repurchases of debt.
Our debt agreements and other financial obligations contain various provisions that, if not complied with, could result in default or event of default under EQT's and Eureka Midstream, LLC's (Eureka) revolving credit facilities, mandatory partial or full repayment of amounts outstanding, reduced loan capacity or other similar actions. The most significant covenants and events of default under our debt agreements relate to maintenance of a debt-to-total capitalization ratio, limitations on transactions with affiliates, insolvency events, nonpayment of scheduled principal or interest payments, acceleration of other financial obligations and change of control provisions. EQT's revolving credit facility contains financial covenants that require us to have a total debt to total capitalization ratio no greater than 65%. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all provisions and covenants under our debt agreements. See Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of borrowings under EQT's and Eureka's revolving credit facilities.
Security Ratings
Our credit ratings and rating outlooks are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency, and each rating should be evaluated independently from any other rating. We cannot ensure that a rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that a rating will not be lowered or withdrawn by a rating agency if, in the rating agency's judgment, circumstances so warrant. See Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of what is deemed investment grade.
The table below reflects the credit ratings and rating outlooks assigned to EQT's debt instruments as of July 14, 2026.
| Rating agency | Senior notes | Outlook | ||||||||||||
| Moody's Investors Service, Inc. (Moody's) | Baa3 | Positive | ||||||||||||
| S&P Global Ratings (S&P) | BBB– | Stable | ||||||||||||
| Fitch Ratings Service (Fitch) | BBB | Stable | ||||||||||||
Changes in our credit ratings may affect our access to the capital markets, the cost of short-term debt through interest rates and fees under our revolving credit facilities, the interest rate on our senior notes with adjustable rates, the rates available on new debt, our pool of investors and funding sources, the borrowing costs and margin deposit requirements on our over-the-counter (OTC) derivative instruments and credit assurance requirements, including collateral, in support of our midstream service contracts, joint venture arrangements or construction contracts. Margin deposits on our OTC derivative instruments are also subject to factors other than credit rating, such as natural gas prices and credit thresholds set forth in the agreements between us and our hedging counterparties.

Commodity Risk Management
The substantial majority of our commodity risk management program is related to hedging sales of our produced natural gas. The overall objective of our hedging program is to protect cash flows from undue exposure to the risk of changing commodity prices. The derivative commodity instruments that we use are primarily swap, collar and option agreements. The following table summarizes the approximate volume and prices of our NYMEX hedge positions as of July 14, 2026. The difference between the fixed price and NYMEX price is included in average differential presented in our price reconciliation in "Average Realized Price Reconciliation." The fixed price natural gas sales agreements can be physically or financially settled.

We have also entered into derivative instruments to hedge basis. We may use other contractual agreements to implement our commodity hedging strategy from time to time.
See Part I, Item 3., "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" and Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our hedging program.
Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, various legal and regulatory claims and proceedings are pending or threatened against us. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, we are unable to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of such claims and proceedings.
We evaluate our legal proceedings, including litigation and regulatory and governmental investigations and inquiries, on a regular basis and accrue a liability when we determine, based on historical experience and matter-specific facts, that a loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Any such accruals are adjusted thereafter as appropriate to reflect changed circumstances. In the event we determine that (i) a loss to us is probable but the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, or (ii) a loss to us is less likely than probable but is reasonably possible, then we are required to disclose the matter in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K with any update thereto in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, although we are not required to accrue such loss.
When able, we determine an estimate of reasonably possible losses or ranges of reasonably possible losses, whether in excess of any related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, for legal proceedings. In instances where such estimates can be made, any such estimates are based on our analysis of currently available information and are subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and uncertainties and may change as new information is obtained.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a discussion of our commitments and contingencies.
Additionally, in the normal course of business, we are subject to various other pending and threatened legal proceedings in which claims for monetary damages or other relief are asserted. We do not anticipate, at the present time, that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of such other legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
See Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of recently issued accounting standards.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our critical accounting estimates, including a discussion regarding the estimation uncertainty and the impact that our critical accounting estimates have had, or are reasonably likely to have, on our financial condition or results of operations, are described in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section of EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The application of our critical accounting estimates may require us to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We use historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments. Different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Commodity Price Risk and Derivative Instruments. Our primary market risk exposure is the volatility of future prices for natural gas and NGLs, which can affect our operating results. We use derivative commodity instruments to hedge our cash flows from sales of produced natural gas and NGLs. The overall objective of our hedging program is to protect our cash flows from undue exposure to the risk of changing commodity prices. Our use of derivatives is further described in Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and "Commodity Risk Management" under "Capital Resources and Liquidity" in Item 2., "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
A hypothetical decrease of 10% in the NYMEX natural gas price on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 would increase the fair value of our natural gas derivative commodity instruments by approximately $124 million and $100 million, respectively. A hypothetical increase of 10% in the NYMEX natural gas price on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 would decrease the fair value of our natural gas derivative commodity instruments by approximately $117 million and $93 million, respectively. For purposes of this analysis, we applied the 10% change in the NYMEX natural gas price on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 to our natural gas derivative commodity instruments as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 to calculate the hypothetical change in fair value. The change in fair value was determined using a method similar to our normal process for determining derivative commodity instrument fair value described in Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The above analysis of our derivative commodity instruments does not include the offsetting impact that the same hypothetical price movement may have on our physical sales of natural gas. The portfolio of derivative commodity instruments held to hedge our forecasted produced natural gas approximates a portion of our expected physical sales of natural gas; therefore, an adverse impact to the fair value of the portfolio of derivative commodity instruments held to hedge our forecasted production associated with the hypothetical changes in commodity prices referenced above should be offset by a favorable impact on our physical sales of natural gas, assuming that the derivative commodity instruments are not closed in advance of their expected term and the derivative commodity instruments continue to function effectively as hedges of the underlying risk.
If the underlying physical transactions or positions are liquidated prior to the maturity of the derivative commodity instruments, a loss on the financial instruments may occur or the derivative commodity instruments might be worthless as determined by the prevailing market value on their termination or maturity date, whichever comes first.
Interest Rate Risk. As of June 30, 2026, there have been no material changes to our interest rate risk exposures described in the "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk – Interest Rate Risk" section of EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
47
Other Market Risks. We are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to our derivative contracts. This credit exposure is limited to derivative contracts with a positive fair value, which may change as market prices change. Approximately 76%, or $133 million, of our OTC derivative contracts outstanding at June 30, 2026 had a positive fair value. Approximately 62%, or $159 million, of our OTC derivative contracts outstanding at December 31, 2025 had a positive fair value. Otherwise, as of June 30, 2026, there have been no material changes to our market risk exposures described in the "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk – Other Market Risks" section of EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the second quarter of 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, various legal and regulatory claims and proceedings are pending or threatened against us. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, we are unable to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of such claims and proceedings. We accrue legal and other direct costs related to loss contingencies when actually incurred. We have established reserves in amounts that we believe to be appropriate for pending matters and, after consultation with counsel and giving appropriate consideration to available insurance, we believe that the ultimate outcome of any pending matter involving us will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
There are no material updates to the matters previously disclosed in the "Legal Proceedings" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and in the "Legal Proceedings" section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2026.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There are no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the "Risk Factors" section of EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Recent Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities
None.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
We did not repurchase any equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act during the second quarter of 2026.
On December 13, 2021, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (the Share Repurchase Program) authorizing us to repurchase shares of EQT common stock for an aggregate purchase price of up to $1 billion, excluding fees, commissions and expenses. On September 6, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a $1 billion increase to the Share Repurchase Program, pursuant to which approval we are authorized to repurchase shares of EQT common stock for an aggregate purchase price of up to $2 billion, excluding fees, commissions and expenses. The Share Repurchase Program was originally scheduled to expire on December 31, 2023; however, on April 26, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a one-year extension of the Share Repurchase Program. Further, on December 18, 2024, we announced that our Board of Directors approved an additional two-year extension of the Share Repurchase Program. As a result of the most recent extension, the Share Repurchase Program will expire on December 31, 2026, but it may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program may be made from time to time in amounts at prices we deem appropriate and will be subject to a variety of factors, including the market price of EQT common stock, general market and economic conditions, applicable legal requirements and other considerations. As of June 30, 2026, we had purchased shares for an aggregate purchase price of $622.1 million, excluding fees, commissions and expenses, under the Share Repurchase Program since its inception, and the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the Share Repurchase Program is $1.4 billion.
