CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), 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 and are usually identified by the use of words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "could," "would," "will," "may," "forecast," "approximate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe" and other words of similar meaning, or the negative thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include the matters discussed in the section "Trends and Uncertainties" in Item 2., "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and expectations of our plans, strategies, objectives and growth and anticipated financial and operational performance, including guidance regarding our strategy to develop our reserves; drilling plans and programs, including availability of capital to complete these plans and programs; total resource potential and drilling inventory duration; projected production and sales volume, including natural gas liquids (NGLs) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) volumes and sales; the projected volume and timing of LNG offtake and tolling commitments subject to final investment decisions; potential curtailments and the anticipated volume and duration thereof; natural gas prices; changes in basis and the impact of commodity prices on our business; potential future impairments of our assets; projected well costs and capital expenditures; infrastructure projects; the cost, capacity and timing of obtaining regulatory approvals; our ability to successfully implement and execute our operational and organizational initiatives, and achieve the anticipated results of such initiatives; projected gathering and compression rates; potential acquisitions or other strategic transactions, the timing thereof and our ability to achieve the intended operational, financial and strategic benefits from any such transactions or from any recently completed strategic transactions, including the Company's acquisition of all of the operating subsidiaries of Blackline Midstream, LLC; the amount and timing of any repayments, redemptions or repurchases of EQT common stock, outstanding debt securities or other debt instruments; our ability to retire our debt and the timing of such retirements, if any; the projected amount and timing of dividends; projected cash flows and free cash flow, and the timing thereof; liquidity and financing requirements, including funding sources and availability; our ability to maintain or improve our credit ratings, leverage levels and financial profile; our hedging strategy and projected margin posting obligations; the effects of litigation, government regulation and tax position; and the expected impact of changes to tax laws.

The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are subject to 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. We have based these forward-looking statements on current expectations and assumptions about future events, taking into account all information currently known by us. While we consider 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 our 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; our ability to appropriately allocate capital and other resources among our strategic opportunities; access to and cost of capital; our hedging and other financial contracts; inherent hazards and risks normally incidental to drilling for, producing, transporting and storing natural gas, NGLs and oil; operational risks and hazards incidental to the gathering, transmission and storage of natural gas as well as unforeseen interruptions; cyber security 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 our exploration and development plans, including as a result of inflationary pressures or tariffs; risks associated with operating primarily in the Appalachian Basin; the ability to obtain environmental and other permits and the timing thereof; construction, business, economic, competitive, regulatory, judicial, environmental, political and legal uncertainties related to the development and construction by us or our joint ventures of pipeline and storage facilities and transmission assets and the optimization of such assets; our ability to renew or replace expiring gathering, transmission or storage contracts at favorable rates on a long-term basis or at all; risks relating to our joint venture arrangements; 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; 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 Mids

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.

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.

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.

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.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, none of our directors or "officers" (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" (as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K).
