About EQT

EQT draws natural gas from wells located throughout the United States, making that its primary line of business. It also captures a set of related liquid byproducts, covering ethane, propane, isobutane, butane, and a form of natural gasoline. The scale of its underground holdings stands out, with certified reserves reaching 25.0 trillion cubic feet of combined natural gas, liquids, and crude oil as of late 2021.

Production is spread over close to 2.0 million gross acres, and the majority of that land, some 1.7 million gross acres, lies within the Marcellus shale region. This heavy concentration in one shale formation defines much of how the company approaches extraction and reserve management.

Founded in 1878, EQT keeps its headquarters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Its stock trades on the NYSE under the ticker EQT.

Last earnings call, Jul 21, 2026 AI summary

What they said
EQT reported a strong Q2 2026 driven by operational outperformance and commercial momentum. Management highlighted record drilling and completion performance (longest lateral >29,000 ft, new 24- and 48-hour drilling records), production that came in above the high end of guidance, $330 million of free cash flow in Q2 despite weak average gas prices (~$2.89/MMBtu), and upward revisions to 2026 production and modest reductions to CapEx. The company is accelerating strategic projects (MVP Southgate) and pulling forward certain equity contributions, and continues to execute commercial contracts that capture power-linked pricing and LNG offtake exposure (e.g., a 10-year 325 MMcf/d agreement with CPV linked to PJM power pricing). Management described multiple midstream and downstream demand projects (Slide 22) that could create significant Appalachian demand growth late this decade, and emphasized EQT’s integrated platform, midstream capabilities, and disciplined capital allocation (buybacks opportunistically, selective tuck-in M&A such as BlackLine).
Guidance
EQT raised 2026 production guidance by 90 Bcfe and lowered full-year 2026 CapEx by $25 million. Management announced accelerating MVP Southgate construction and is pulling forward $85 million of capital contributions to equity method investments from 2027 into 2026. They discussed the expected contribution of a recently signed 10-year CPV offtake (325 MMcf/d) that could add roughly ~$100 million of free cash flow on a full-year hypothetical basis at full utilization, and indicated no material change to longer-term strategic production plans while highlighting optionality to grow into contracted demand.
Risks flagged
Project timing and slippage risk (LNG and power projects may come online later than contractual dates); permitting and financing or FID risk for large downstream projects; short-term commodity and basis volatility (Permian growth, weather patterns, seasonal weakness); correlation and spark-spread exposure (power-linked contracts have upside but also market risk); macro/geopolitical risk to LNG markets (notably the recent Iran-related supply impacts); execution risk on midstream/compression projects and potential capital allocation trade-offs.
