EQT Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results

PITTSBURGH, July 23, 2024 -- EQT Corporation (NYSE: EQT) today announced financial and operational results for the second quarter of 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 and Recent Highlights:
Closed the acquisition of Equitrans Midstream Corporation (Equitrans) a full quarter ahead of plan, resulting in approximately $150 million of savings relative to initial expectations; accelerates synergy capture and the commencement of deleveraging plan
Sales volume of 508 Bcfe, above the high-end of guidance driven by continued operational efficiency gains and strong well performance
Capital expenditures of $576 million, below the midpoint of guidance despite faster activity pace; recent developments show a step change improvement in completion efficiency with potential for structurally lower well costs
Total per unit operating costs of $1.40 per Mcfe, below the low-end of guidance driven by lower-than-expected LOE and SG&A expense
Higher-than-expected southeast gas prices via Mountain Valley Pipeline capacity drove second quarter differential towards the low-end of guidance
Total debt and net debt(1) down from $5.8 billion and $5.7 billion at year-end 2023 to $5.0 billion and $4.9 billion, respectively, at quarter-end
Retired approximately $600 million of 2025 senior notes with proceeds from partial non-operated asset monetization; marketing remaining 60% interest in northeast Pennsylvania non-operated assets
Increased revolving credit facility lender commitments from $2.5 billion to $3.5 billion
Converted non-binding Heads of Agreement with Glenfarne Energy Transition's Texas LNG to binding Liquefaction Tolling Services Agreement for 2 million tonnes per annum of liquefaction tolling capacity
Released 2023 ESG report highlighting successful achievement of GHG emission intensity and methane emission intensity targets one year ahead of schedule; on track to achieve net zero by 2025(2)

President and CEO Toby Z. Rice stated, "This week marked a significant milestone in the history of our company as we closed the acquisition of Equitrans, transforming EQT into America’s only large-scale, vertically integrated natural gas business. This combination creates a truly differentiated business model among the energy investment landscape, as EQT is now at the low end of the North American natural gas cost curve. We believe our sustainable cost structure advantage, combined with our scale, peer leading inventory depth, low emissions profile and world class operating team offers the best risk-adjusted exposure to natural gas prices of any publicly investable asset in the world."

Rice continued, "We also experienced yet another quarter of operational outperformance as our teams continue to find novel ways to drive incremental efficiency gains. Recent enhancements we’ve made to supply chain logistics have driven materially faster completion times on our latest wells, which are outpacing our 2023 average completion speed by more than 35%. We see the potential for these gains to drive structurally lower well costs and future maintenance capital requirements.”

(1)A non-GAAP financial measure. See the Non-GAAP Disclosures section of this news release for the definition of, and other important information regarding, this non-GAAP financial measure.
(2)“Net zero” refers to net zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, in each case from assets owned by EQT on June 30, 2021 (i.e., when EQT announced its net zero goal). Scope 1 GHG emissions are based exclusively on emissions reported to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (Subpart W) for the onshore petroleum and natural gas production segment.

Gathering expense per Mcfe decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due primarily to the Company's ownership of the gathering assets acquired in the Company's acquisition of THQ Appalachia I Midco, LLC (Tug Hill) and THQ-XcL Holdings I Midco, LLC (XcL Midstream, and such acquisition, the Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition), the lower gathering cost structure that resulted pursuant to the Company's consolidated gas gathering and compression agreement, dated February 26, 2020, with an affiliate of Equitrans and the Company's acquisition of the remaining minority interest in gathering assets located in northeast Pennsylvania during the second quarter of 2024.

Transmission expense per Mcfe increased for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due primarily to credits received from the Texas Eastern Transmission Pipeline in 2023 as well as additional capacity acquired.

Processing expense per Mcfe increased for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due primarily to increased processing expense from the liquids-rich assets acquired in the Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition.

LOE per Mcfe increased for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due primarily to increased LOE from the assets acquired in the Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition.

eqtfullcolorlogojpg.jpg
Production taxes per Mcfe increased for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due primarily to increased West Virginia property tax expense from the assets acquired in the Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition and higher price as well as increased severance tax expense from increased volumes from the assets acquired in the Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition.

Liquidity
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $47 million of borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility. Total liquidity as of June 30, 2024 was $2.5 billion. On July 22, 2024, the Company amended its revolving credit facility to increase lender commitments thereunder from $2.5 billion to $3.5 billion.

As of June 30, 2024, total debt and net debt(1) were $5.0 billion and $4.9 billion, respectively, compared to $5.8 billion and $5.7 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2023.

(1)A non-GAAP financial measure. See the Non-GAAP Disclosures section of this news release for the definition of, and other important information regarding, this non-GAAP financial measure.

2024 Outlook
The Company re-affirms its expectation of 2024 total sales volume of 2,100 – 2,200 Bcfe, which embeds approximately 180 Bcfe of net production curtailments in 2024, including 90 Bcfe in the second half of 2024. The Company maintains its 2024 EQT maintenance capital expenditures guidance of $1,950 – $2,050 million. The Company also maintains its 2024 strategic growth capital expenditures guidance of $200 – $300 million, which targets opportunistic, high-return water, midstream and other infrastructure and land opportunities. Following the close of the Equitrans acquisition, the Company expects to spend $180 – $230 million in the balance of 2024 for Equitrans capital expenditures.

During the third quarter of 2024, the Company plans to turn-in-line (TIL) 40 – 60 net wells. Total sales volume in the third quarter of 2024 is expected to be 510 – 560 Bcfe, inclusive of planned curtailments.

Non-GAAP Disclosures
This news release includes the non-GAAP financial measures described below. These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information only and should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income attributable to EQT Corporation, net income, diluted earnings per share, net cash provided by operating activities, total operating revenues, total debt, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from these non-GAAP measures are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital, tax structure, and historic costs of depreciable assets.

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to EQT and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share (Adjusted EPS)
Adjusted net income attributable to EQT is defined as net income attributable to EQT Corporation, excluding (gain) loss on sale/exchange of long-lived assets, impairments, the revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement and certain other items that the Company's management believes do not reflect the Company's core operating performance. Adjusted EPS is defined as adjusted net income attributable to EQT divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. The Company's management believes adjusted net income attributable to EQT and adjusted EPS provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because it helps facilitate comparisons of operating performance and earnings trends across periods by excluding the impact of items that, in their opinion, do not reflect the Company’s core operating performance. For example, adjusted net income attributable to EQT and adjusted EPS reflect only the impact of settled derivative contracts; thus, the measures exclude the often-volatile revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement.

(a)Other expenses consist primarily of transaction costs associated with acquisitions and other strategic transactions, costs related to exploring new venture opportunities and executive severance. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, other expenses included a nonrecurring corporate litigation expense.
(b)The tax impact of non-GAAP items represents the incremental tax expense/benefit that would have been incurred had these items been excluded from net income attributable to EQT Corporation, which resulted in blended tax rates of (125.4%) and 25.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 33.5% and 24.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The rates differ from the Company's statutory tax rate due primarily to state taxes, including valuation allowances limiting certain state tax benefits.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income, excluding interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and depletion, (gain) loss on sale/exchange of long-lived assets, impairments, the revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement and certain other items that the Company's management believes do not reflect the Company's core operating performance. The Company’s management believes that this measure provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because it helps facilitate comparisons of operating performance and earnings trends across periods by excluding the impact of items that, in their opinion, do not reflect the Company’s core operating performance. For example, adjusted EBITDA reflects only the impact of settled derivative instruments and excludes the often-volatile revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, other expenses included a nonrecurring corporate litigation expense.

Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow
Adjusted operating cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less changes in other assets and liabilities. Free cash flow is defined as adjusted operating cash flow less accrual-based capital expenditures, excluding capital expenditures attributable to noncontrolling interests. The Company's management believes adjusted operating cash flow and free cash flow provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's liquidity, including the Company's ability to generate cash flow in excess of its capital requirements and return cash to shareholders.

Adjusted Operating Revenues
Adjusted operating revenues (also referred to as total natural gas and liquids sales, including cash settled derivatives) is defined as total operating revenues, less the revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement and net marketing services and other revenues. The Company’s management believes that this measure provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations because it helps facilitate comparisons of operating performance and earnings trends across periods. 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 net marketing services and other revenues because it is unrelated to the revenue for the Company's natural gas and liquids production.

The table below reconciles adjusted operating revenues to total operating revenues, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, as reported in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations to be included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Total debt includes the Company's current portion of debt, revolving credit facility borrowings, term loan facility borrowings, senior notes and note payable to EQM Midstream Partners, LP (EQM). The Company's management believes net debt provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's financial condition and assists them in evaluating the Company's leverage since the Company could choose to use its cash and cash equivalents to retire debt.

The table below reconciles net debt with total debt, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, as derived from the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to be included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts are forward-looking. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this news release specifically include the expectations of plans, strategies, objectives and growth and anticipated financial and operational performance of EQT Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, EQT), including guidance regarding EQT’s strategy to develop its reserves; drilling plans and programs (including the number and type of drilling rigs and the number of frac crews to be utilized by EQT, the projected amount of wells to be turned-in-line and the timing thereof); projected natural gas prices, basis and average differential; the impact of commodity prices on EQT's business; total resource potential; projected production and sales volumes, including liquified natural gas (LNG) volumes and sales; projected production curtailments, including the volume and duration thereof; projected well costs and unit costs; EQT's ability to successfully implement and execute its operational, organizational, technological and environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives, including EQT's net zero emissions goal, the timing thereof and EQT's ability to achieve the anticipated results of such initiatives; potential acquisitions, asset sales or other strategic transactions, the timing thereof and EQT’s ability to achieve the intended operational, financial and strategic benefits from any such transactions or from any recently completed strategic transactions, including EQT's acquisition of Equitrans and the projected synergies therefrom; the amount and timing of any redemptions, repayments or repurchases of EQT's common stock, outstanding debt securities or other debt instruments; EQT’s ability to reduce its debt and the timing of such reductions, if any; projected dividends, if any; projected free cash flow; liquidity and financing requirements, including funding sources and availability; EQT's ability to maintain or improve its credit ratings, leverage levels and financial profile, and the timing of achieving such improvements, if at all; EQT’s hedging strategy and projected margin posting obligations; EQT’s tax position and projected effective tax rate; and the expected impact of changes in laws.

The forward-looking statements included in this news release involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. EQT has based these forward-looking statements on current expectations and assumptions about future events, taking into account all information currently known by EQT. While EQT considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and beyond EQT’s control. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, volatility of commodity prices; the costs and results of drilling and operations; uncertainties about estimates of reserves, identification of drilling locations and the ability to add proved reserves in the future; the assumptions underlying production forecasts; the quality of technical data; EQT’s ability to appropriately allocate capital and other resources among its strategic opportunities; access to and cost of capital, including as a result of rising interest rates, inflation and other economic uncertainties; EQT’s hedging and other financial contracts; inherent hazards and risks normally incidental to drilling for, producing, transporting and storing natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs) and oil; cybersecurity risks and acts of sabotage; availability and cost of drilling rigs, completion services, equipment, supplies, personnel, oilfield services and sand and water required to execute EQT’s exploration and development plans, including as a result of supply chain and inflationary pressures; risks associated with operating primarily in the Appalachian Basin; the ability to obtain environmental and other permits and the timing thereof; government regulation or action, including regulations pertaining to methane and other greenhouse gas 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; risks related to EQT's ability to integrate the operations of Equitrans in a successful manner and in the expected time period and the possibility that any of the anticipated benefits and projected synergies of the Equitrans acquisition will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; and disruptions to EQT’s business due to acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic transactions, including the Equitrans acquisition. These and other risks are described under the “Risk Factors” section in EQT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, the “Risk Factors” section to be included in EQT’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024, and other documents EQT files 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, EQT does not intend to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
