Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Financial Statements

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 financial position of EQT Corporation and subsidiaries as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the results of its operations, ~~and~~its equity ~~for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021~~ and its cash flows for the ~~six~~three month periods ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2021.~~2022. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to ~~"EQT," "EQT Corporation"~~"EQT" and "the Company" refer collectively to EQT Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

~~These~~The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes ~~should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included~~ in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

~~Recently Issued Accounting Standards~~

~~In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2020-06,~~ ~~Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging: Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity~~. This ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models for convertible instruments. For convertible instruments with conversion features that are not accounted for as derivatives under Accounting Standards Codification 815 or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital, the convertible instrument's embedded conversion features are no longer separated from the host contract. Consequently, and as long as no other feature requires bifurcation and recognition as a derivative, the convertible instrument is accounted for as a single liability measured at its amortized cost. Under ASU 2020-06, entities are required to use the if-converted method to calculate the impact of convertible instruments on diluted earnings per share (EPS). The if-converted method assumes share settlement of the instrument, which increases the number of potentially dilutive securities used to calculate diluted EPS. This ASU also adds several new disclosure requirements.

The Company adopted this ASU effective as of January 1, 2022 using the full retrospective method of adoption. The following tables present the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on the Company's previously reported historical results. See Note 6 for discussion of the Convertible Notes (defined in Note 6).

~~(a)~~Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes indenture, a sale price condition for conversion of the Convertible Notes was satisfied as of December 31, 2021, and, accordingly, holders of the Convertible Notes were permitted to convert any of their Convertible Notes at their option at any time during the three months ended March 31, 2022, subject to all terms and conditions set forth in the Convertible Notes indenture. Therefore, as of December 31, 2021, the net carrying value of the Convertible Notes was included in current portion of debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Certain line items in the Statement of Condensed Consolidated Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were adjusted to reflect the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-06; however, the adoption did not impact cash and did not change net cash provided by operating, investing or financing activities.

2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Under the Company's natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs) and oil sales contracts, the Company generally considers the delivery of each unit (MMBtu or Bbl) to be a separate performance obligation that is satisfied upon delivery. These contracts typically require payment within 25 days of the end of the calendar month in which the commodity is delivered. A significant number of these contracts contain variable consideration because the payment terms refer to market prices at future delivery dates. In these situations, the Company has not identified a standalone selling price because the terms of the variable payments relate specifically to the Company's efforts to satisfy the performance obligations. Other contracts, such as fixed price contracts or contracts with a fixed differential to New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) or index prices, contain fixed consideration. The fixed consideration is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis, which requires judgment from management. For these contracts, the Company generally concludes that the fixed price or fixed differentials in the contracts are representative of the standalone selling price.

Based on management's judgment, the performance obligations for the sale of natural gas, NGLs and oil are satisfied at a point in time because the customer obtains control and legal title of the asset when the natural gas, NGLs or oil is delivered to the designated sales point.

The 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, thus, reports the revenue on a net basis.

For contracts with customers where the Company's performance obligations had been satisfied and an unconditional right to consideration existed as of the balance sheet date, the Company recorded amounts due from contracts with customers of ~~$1,558.1 million and $1,093.9 million in accounts receivable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.~~

3. 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 require 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 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.

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 ~~loss~~gain (loss) on derivatives in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations. Because the Company does not designate any of its derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, the Company has changed the references to "derivatives not designated as hedges" to "derivatives" throughout the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. 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.

EQT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

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 ~~2,227~~1,556 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas and ~~1,830~~2,079 thousand barrels (Mbbl) of NGLs as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2,184~~1,424 Bcf of natural gas and ~~3,055~~1,483 Mbbl of NGLs as of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The open positions at both ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 had maturities extending through December 2027.

Certain of the Company's OTC derivative instrument contracts provide that, if the Company'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, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company's senior notes were rated "Ba1" 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, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the aggregate fair value of all OTC derivative instruments with credit rating risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position was ~~$465.0~~$90.8 million and ~~$594.9~~$347.6 million, respectively, for which the Company deposited and recorded current assets of ~~$238.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively.~~zero for both periods.

When the net fair value of any of the Company's OTC derivative instrument contracts represents an asset to the Company that is in excess of the agreed-upon dollar threshold for the counterparty's then-applicable credit rating, the Company has the right to require the counterparty to remit funds as a margin deposit in an amount equal to the portion of the derivative asset that is in excess of the dollar threshold amount. The Company records these deposits as a current liability in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of both ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there were no such deposits recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

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, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company recorded ~~$109.4~~$181.8 million and ~~$147.7~~$100.6 million, respectively, of such deposits as current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Such payments are conditioned upon the quarterly average of the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas settlement price exceeding certain price thresholds. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the derivative liability related to the Henry Hub Cash Bonus had a fair value of approximately $53 million and $111 million, respectively. The fair value of the derivative liability related to the Henry Hub Cash Bonus is based on significant inputs that are interpolated from observable market data and, as such, is a Level 2 fair value measurement. See Note 4 for a description of the fair value hierarchy.

During the second quarter of 2020, the Company closed a transaction to sell certain non-strategic assets located in Pennsylvania and West Virginia (the 2020 Divestiture), the purchase and sale agreement for which, among other things, provides for additional cash bonus payments (the Contingent Consideration) payable to the Company of up to $20 million, conditioned upon the three-month average of the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas settlement price relative to stated floor and target price thresholds beginning on August 31, 2020 and ending on November 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the derivative asset related to the Contingent Consideration had a fair value of approximately $3.9 million and $8.2 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company received cash from the Contingent Consideration of $4.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Changes in fair value are recorded in gain on sale/exchange of long-lived assets in the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations. The fair value of the derivative asset related to the Contingent Consideration is based on significant inputs that are interpolated from observable market data and, as such, is a Level 2 fair value measurement. See Note 4 for a description of the fair value hierarchy.

4. 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. If quoted market prices are not available, the fair value is based on models that use market-based parameters, including forward curves, discount rates, volatilities and nonperformance risk, as inputs. 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 the Company's or 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.

~~Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~

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, LIBOR-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 LIBOR-based discount rates.

The carrying values of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The ~~December 31, 2021~~ carrying value of the Company's investment in Equitrans Midstream Corporation (Equitrans Midstream) approximates fair value as Equitrans Midstream is a publicly traded company. In April 2022, the Company sold the remaining balance of its Equitrans Midstream common stock for net proceeds of approximately $189 million. The carrying value ofany borrowings under the Company's credit facility and Term Loan Facility (defined in Note 6) approximates fair value as the interest ~~rate is~~rates are based on prevailing market rates. The Company considered all of these fair values to be Level 1 fair value measurements.

The Company has an investment in a fund (the Investment Fund) that invests in companies developing technology and operating solutions for exploration and production companies. The investment is valued using, as a practical expedient, the net asset value provided in the financial statements received from fund managers.

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, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company's senior notes had a fair value of approximately ~~$5.4~~$5.8 billion and ~~$6.5~~$6.1 billion, respectively, and a carrying value of approximately ~~$4.8~~$5.4 billion and ~~$5.5~~$5.6 billion, respectively, inclusive of any current portion. The fair value of the Company's note payable to EQM Midstream Partners, LP (EQM) is estimated using an income approach model with a market-based discount rate and is a Level 3 fair value measurement. As of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company's note payable to EQM had a fair value of approximately ~~$102~~$96 million and ~~$118~~$96 million, respectively, and a carrying value of approximately ~~$97~~$93 million and ~~$100~~$94 million, respectively, inclusive of any current portion.

5. Income Taxes

For the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ the Company calculated the provision for income taxes for interim periods 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. There were no material changes to the Company's methodology for determining unrecognized tax benefits during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

~~The~~For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded income tax ~~benefit~~expense (benefit) at an effective tax rate of ~~20.2%~~22.6% and ~~27.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021,~~23.5%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was lower compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to nondeductible repurchase premiums on the Convertible Notes, partly offset by state taxes, including valuation allowances limiting certain state tax benefits. The Company's effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was higher compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate due primarily to state taxes, including valuation allowances limiting certain state tax ~~benefits and West Virginia tax legislation enacted on April 13, 2021 that changed~~benefits.

On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the IRA) which is ~~apportioned to West Virginia~~effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The IRA establishes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax for certain corporations which is not applicable to the Company for 2023 in accordance with the safe harbor provided in IRS Notice 2023-7. The IRA also includes a 1% excise tax on ~~or after January 1, 2022.~~stock repurchases made by publicly traded U.S. corporations and includes new and renewed options for energy credits. These changes do not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and disclosures.

~~On July 8, 2022,~~The Company intends to maintain a valuation allowance on certain of its state net operating loss deferred tax assets (DTAs) until there is sufficient evidence to support a reversal of all or a portion of such allowance. However, given the ~~Pennsylvania General Assembly enacted House Bill 1342,~~Company's anticipated future earnings, the Company believes that there is a reasonable possibility that, in the near term, sufficient positive evidence may become available that supports the release of a portion of the Company's valuation allowance, which ~~reduces~~would result in the ~~corporate net~~recognition of certain DTAs and a decrease to income tax ~~rate from 9.99%~~expense for the period in which the release is recorded. The exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release would be subject to ~~8.99% in 2023 and continues to reduce that rate by 0.5% per year beginning in 2024 and ending at 4.99% in 2031 and thereafter.

Upon conversion of the remaining outstanding Convertible Notes, the Company may satisfy its conversion obligation by paying and/or delivering at the Company's election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Convertible Notes indenture, cash, shares of EQT Corporation common stock or a combination thereof. The Company intends to use a combined settlement approach to satisfy its obligation by paying or delivering to holders of the Convertible Notes cash equal to the principal amount of the obligation and EQT Corporation common stock for amounts that exceed the principal amount of the obligation.

In connection with the Convertible Notes offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the Capped Call Transactions), the purpose of which is to reduce the potential dilution to EQT Corporation common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of such obligation, with such reduction and offset subject to a cap. The Capped Call Transactions have an initial strike price of $15.00 per share of EQT Corporation common stock and an initial capped price of $18.75 per share of EQT Corporation common stock, each of which are subject to certain customary adjustments, including adjustments as a result of the Company paying a dividend on its common stock.

The Capped Call Transactions are separate from the Convertible Notes. The Capped Call Transactions were recorded in shareholders' equity and were not accounted for as derivatives. The cost to purchase the Capped Call Transactions of $32.5 million was recorded as a reduction to equity and will not be remeasured.

Based on the closing stock price of EQT Corporation common stock of ~~$34.40~~$31.91 on ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and excluding the impact of the Capped Call Transactions, the if-converted value of the Convertible Notes exceeded the principal amount by ~~$572~~$486 million.

8. Impairment of Contract Asset

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company sold to Equitrans Midstream Corporation (Equitrans Midstream) approximately 50% of the Company's then-owned equity interest in Equitrans Midstream in exchange for a combination of cash and rate relief under certain of the Company's gathering contracts with an affiliate of Equitrans Midstream (the Equitrans Share Exchange). The rate relief was effected through the execution of a consolidated gas gathering and compression agreement entered into between the Company and an affiliate of Equitrans Midstream (the Consolidated GGA). In addition, because the Mountain Valley Pipeline was not in service by January 1, 2022, the Consolidated GGA provides the Company with the option to forgo a portion of the gathering fee relief that would otherwise be applicable following the Mountain Valley Pipeline in-service date in exchange for a cash payment to the Company of approximately $196 million (the Cash Payment Option). On July 8, 2022, the Company delivered notice to Equitrans Midstream that it had elected to exercise the Cash Payment Option.

On the closing date of the Equitrans Share Exchange, the Company recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet a contract asset of $410 million representing the estimated fair value of the rate relief inclusive of the Cash Payment ~~Option.~~Option (defined below).

Because the Mountain Valley Pipeline was not in service by January 1, 2022, the Consolidated GGA provided the Company the option to forgo a portion of the gathering fee relief that would otherwise be applicable following the Mountain Valley Pipeline in-service date in exchange for a cash payment of approximately $196 million (the Cash Payment Option). During the ~~first~~third quarter of 2022, the Company elected to exercise the Cash Payment Option, and, in the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company received the cash proceeds from the Cash Payment Option.

During 2022, the Company identified indicators that the carrying value of the contract asset may not be fully recoverable, including increased uncertainty of the estimated timing of completion of the Mountain Valley Pipeline due to ~~recent~~ court ~~rulings.~~rulings and public statements from Equitrans Midstream with respect to its completion. As a result of the Company's impairment evaluation, the Company recognized impairment during the first quarter of 2022 of $184.9 million in the Statement of Condensed Consolidated Operations. ~~The~~During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company recognized additional impairment of $29.3 million in the Statement of Condensed Consolidated Operations. As of December 31, 2022, the previously recognized impairment plus the election of the Cash Payment Option reduced the carrying value of the contract asset to its estimated fair value as of March 31, 2022 of $225 million, of which $196 million was attributable to the Cash Payment Option provided by the Consolidated GGA and presented in prepaid expenses and other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and $29 million was attributable to the residual rate relief realizable upon the in-service date of the Mountain Valley Pipeline and presented in contract asset in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. zero.

The fair value of the contract asset was based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and, as such, is a Level 3 fair value measurement. See Note 4 for a description of the fair value hierarchy. Key assumptions used in the fair value calculation included the following: (i) a probability-weighted estimate of the in-service date of the Mountain Valley Pipeline; (ii) an estimate of the potential exercise and timing of the Cash Payment Option; (iii) an estimated production volume forecast and (iv) a market-based weighted average cost of capital.

The Alta Target Entities collectively held all of Alta Resources' upstream and midstream assets and liabilities. The purchase price for the Alta Acquisition consisted of approximately $1.0 billion in cash and 98,789,388 shares of EQT common stock, as adjusted pursuant to customary closing purchase price adjustments set forth in the Alta Purchase Agreement. The Alta Purchase Agreement has an effective date of January 1, 2021.

As a result of the Alta Acquisition, the Company acquired approximately 300,000 net Northeast Marcellus acres, approximately 1.0 Bcfe per day of current net production, approximately 300 miles of midstream gathering systems, approximately 100 miles of a freshwater system and a firm transportation portfolio to premium demand markets.

The Company completed the purchase price allocation for the Alta Acquisition during the second quarter of 2022, at which time the value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were revised. The purchase accounting adjustments recorded in 2022 were not material.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Consolidated Results of Operations

Net income attributable to EQT Corporation for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 was ~~$891.4~~$1,218.5 million, ~~$2.19~~$3.10 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to EQT Corporation for the same period in ~~2021~~2022 of ~~$933.3~~$1,516.0 million, ~~$3.34~~$4.05 per diluted share. The change was attributable primarily to a gain on derivatives in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to a loss on derivatives in the first quarter of 2022 and impairment of the contract asset in the first quarter of 2022, partly offset by increased income tax expense and lower sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil and a smaller loss on derivatives, partly offset by income tax expense, increased loss on debt extinguishment and increased transmission and processing, depreciation and depletion and production expenses.

Net loss attributable to EQT Corporation for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $624.7 million, $1.68 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to EQT Corporation for the same period in 2021 of $970.7 million, $3.48 per diluted share. The change was attributable primarily to increased sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil, partly offset by a greater loss on derivatives, decreased income tax benefit, the impairment of our contract asset (discussed in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), increased transportation and processing expense, increased loss on debt extinguishment and increased depreciation and depletion expense.

Results of operations for 2022 include the results of our operation of assets acquired in the Alta Acquisition (defined and discussed in Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), which closed in July 2021.oil.

See "Sales Volume and Revenues" and "Operating Expenses" for discussions of items affecting operating income 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.

Trends and Uncertainties

Our sales volume and operating expenses for 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 were negatively impacted by fewer wells turned-in-line during 2022 compared to our 2022 planned development schedule due to third-party supply chain constraints. As a result of such third-party supply chain constraints during 2022, we shifted the planned development of approximately 30 wells from 2022 to 2023 (the Rescheduled Wells). As we work to complete the Rescheduled Wells, we anticipate that our capital expenditures will be elevated until the Rescheduled Wells are completed and turned-in-line, which we project will occur during the first half of 2023; however, supply chain constraints or declines in natural gas prices may result in us adjusting our 2023 planned development schedule. Adjustments to our 2023 planned development schedule could impact our future sales volume, operating revenues and expenses, per unit metrics and capital expenditures.

The annual inflation rate in the United States was particularly high during 2022, and, although the inflation rate began to fall in the first quarter of 2023, it still remains elevated compared to historical levels. Furthermore, many analysts anticipate inflation will remain elevated through 2023. Inflationary pressures have multiple impacts on our business, including increasing our operating expenses and our cost of capital. Additionally, certain of our commitments for demand charges under our existing long-term contracts and processing capacity are subject to consumer price index adjustments. Although we believe our scale and supply chain contracting strategy of using multi-year sand and frac crew contracts allows us to maximize capital and operating efficiencies, future increases in the inflation rate will negatively impact our long-term contracts with consumer price index adjustments.

Additionally, while the prices for natural gas, NGLs and oil have historically been volatile, price volatility was especially pronounced during 2022, and continued to be volatile during the first quarter of 2023. The daily spot prices for NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas ranged from a high of $9.85 per MMBtu to a low of $1.93 per MMBtu between the period from January 1, 2022 through March 31, 2023, and the daily spot prices for NYMEX West Texas Intermediate crude oil ranged from a high of $123.64 per barrel to a low of $66.61 per barrel during the same period. We expect commodity price volatility to continue or increase throughout the remainder of 2023 due to rising macroeconomic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions, including the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022 and has put upward pressure on natural gas and oil prices. Our revenue, profitability, rate of growth, 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.

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 adjusted operating revenues, a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure. Adjusted operating revenues is presented because it is an important measure we use to evaluate period-to-period comparisons of earnings trends. Adjusted operating revenues should not be considered as an alternative to total operating revenues. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation" for a reconciliation of adjusted operating revenues with total operating revenues, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation

The table below reconciles adjusted operating revenues, a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure, with total operating revenues, its most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. 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. Adjusted operating revenues excludes the revenue impacts of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement and net marketing services and other. We use adjusted operating revenues to evaluate earnings trends because, as a result of the measure's exclusion of the often-volatile changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement, the measure reflects only the impact of settled derivative contracts. Net marketing services and other consists of the costs of, and recoveries on, pipeline capacity releases, revenues for gathering services provided to third parties and other revenues. Because we consider net marketing services and other to be unrelated to our natural gas and liquids production activities, adjusted operating revenues excludes net marketing services and other. We believe that adjusted operating revenues provides useful information to investors for evaluating period-to-period comparisons of earnings trends.

Sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil. Sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil ~~increased~~decreased for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in ~~2021~~2022 due to decreased sales volume, partly offset by a higher average realized ~~price~~price.

Sales volume decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily as a result of sales volume decreases from natural decline of producing wells and ~~increased~~fewer wells turned-in-line throughout 2022 as a result of third-party supply chain constraints. Supply chain constraints may continue to impact our future operating revenues. The assets which we intend to acquire in the pending Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition, which is subject to regulatory approvals, are currently producing approximately 800 MMcfe per day of sales volume, 20% of which is liquids sales volume.

Average realized price for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in ~~2021~~2022 increased due to ~~higher NYMEX prices and higher liquids prices, partly offset by unfavorable~~favorable cash settled derivatives and ~~unfavorable differential.~~favorable differential, partly offset by lower NYMEX and liquids prices. For the three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023, we received $157.0 million of net cash settlements on derivatives and for the same period in 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ we paid ~~$1,753.7~~$885.5 million ~~and $71.4 million, respectively,~~ of net cash settlements on derivatives, which are included in average realized price but may not be included in operating revenues.

~~Sales volume increased primarily as a result~~ For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we paid premiums for derivatives that settled during the period of ~~sales volume increases from the assets acquired in the Alta Acquisition.~~$99.4 million and $32.5 million, respectively.

~~Loss~~Gain (loss) on derivatives. For the three months ended ~~June 30, 2022 and 2021,~~March 31, 2023, we recognized a ~~loss~~gain on derivatives of ~~$845.1~~$824.9 million and $1,345.5 million, respectively. The loss on derivatives for 2022 related primarily to decreases in the fair market value of our NYMEX swaps and options due to increases in NYMEX prices. The loss on derivatives for 2021 related primarily to increases in the fair market value of our NYMEX swaps and options due to ~~increases~~decreases in NYMEX forward prices.

~~Gathering.~~ Gathering expense increased on an absolute basis for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 due primarily to increased sales volume from the assets acquired in the Alta Acquisition and higher gathering rates on certain contracts indexed to Appalachian Basin prices. Gathering expense decreased on a per Mcfe basis for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 due primarily to the lower gathering rate structure on the assets acquired in the Alta Acquisition.

~~Transmission.~~ Transmission expense increased on an absolute basis for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 due primarily to additional capacity acquired as part of the Alta Acquisition, higher rates on and lower credits received from the Texas Eastern Transmission Pipeline and additional capacity acquired on the Rockies Express Pipeline in the third quarter of 2021. Transmission expense decreased on a per Mcfe basis for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 due primarily to increased sales volume from the Alta Acquisition, which has a lower average transmission expense per Mcfe when compared to our historical transmission portfolio.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a loss from investments due primarily to a loss on our sale of our investment in Equitrans Midstream, which resulted from a decrease in Equitrans Midstream's stock price to $8.65 as of April 20, 2022, the date of the final sale of our investment, from $10.34 as of December 31, 2021, partly offset by a gain on our investment in the Investment Fund (defined in Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and equity earnings on our equity method investments.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Although we cannot provide any assurance, we believe cash flows from operating activities and availability under our credit facility should be sufficient to meet our cash requirements inclusive of, 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 and Sales Volume. In ~~2022,~~2023, we expect to spend approximately ~~$1.4~~$1.7 billion to ~~$1.5~~$1.9 billion in total capital expenditures, excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling ~~interest.~~interest and amounts attributable to the assets expected to

be acquired in the pending Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition. We expect to fund our capital expenditures with cash generated from operations and, if required, borrowings under our credit facility. Because we are the operator of a high percentage of our developed acreage, the amount and timing of these capital expenditures are largely discretionary. We could choose to defer a portion of these planned ~~2022~~2023 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. ~~Sales~~In 2023, we expect our sales volume ~~in 2022 is~~to be 1,900 Bcfe to 2,000 Bcfe, excluding amounts attributable to the assets expected to be ~~1,950 Bcfe to 2,050 Bcfe.~~acquired in the pending Tug Hill and XcL Midstream Acquisition.

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$1,252~~$1,663 million for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 compared to ~~$443~~$1,021 million for the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. The increase was due primarily to ~~higher~~net cash ~~operating revenues, partly offset by~~settlements received on derivatives in the first quarter of 2023 compared to net cash settlements paid on derivatives ~~higher cash operating expenses and unfavorable~~in the first quarter of 2022, favorable changes in working capital ~~due to higher natural gas prices as well as unfavorable timing of working capital payments.~~and lower cash operating expenses, partly offset by lower cash operating revenues.

Our cash flows from operating activities 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. 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 our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was ~~$508~~$498 million for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 compared to ~~$675~~$291 million for the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. The ~~decrease~~increase was ~~due~~attributable to ~~cash paid for acquisitions in 2021 and proceeds from the sale of our remaining investment in Equitrans Midstream common stock, partly offset by~~ increased capital expenditures.

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 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of redemptions and repurchases of debt.

Security Ratings and Financing Triggers

The table below reflects the credit ratings and rating outlooks assigned to our debt instruments as of ~~July 22, 2022.~~April 21, 2023. 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 independent 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.

Changes in credit ratings may affect our access to the capital markets, the cost of short-term debt through interest rates and fees under our credit facility, the interest rate on our Term Loan Facility (defined in Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and senior notes with adjustable rates, the rates available on new long-term 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.

As of ~~July 22, 2022,~~April 21, 2023, we had sufficient unused borrowing capacity, net of letters of credit, under our credit facility to satisfy any requests for margin deposit or other collateral that our counterparties are permitted to request of us pursuant to our OTC derivative instruments, midstream services contracts and other contracts. As of ~~July 22, 2022,~~April 21, 2023, such assurances could be up to approximately ~~$0.9~~$0.6 billion, inclusive of letters of credit, OTC derivative instrument margin deposits and other collateral posted of approximately ~~$0.5~~$0.2 billion in the aggregate. See Notes 3 and 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Our debt agreements and other financial obligations contain various provisions that, if not complied with, could result in default or event of default under our credit facility and Term Loan Facility, mandatory partial or full repayment of amounts outstanding, reduced loan capacity or other similar actions.

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 22, 2022.~~April 21, 2023. 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 Item 3., "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" and Note 3 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 ~~legal and other direct costs related to loss contingencies~~a liability for such matters when ~~actually incurred. We have established reserves that we believe to be appropriate for pending matters and, after consultation with counsel and giving appropriate consideration to available insurance,~~ we believe that a loss is probable and the ~~ultimate outcome~~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 is probable but the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, or (ii) a loss is less likely than probable but is reasonably possible, then we are required to disclose the matter in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or 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 ~~pending matter involving us will not materially affect~~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 ~~financial condition, results~~analysis of ~~operations or liquidity.~~currently available information and are subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and uncertainties and may change as new information is obtained. See Note 1613 to the Consolidated Financial Statements ~~and Part I, Item 3., "Legal Proceedings"~~ in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 for a discussion of our commitments and ~~contingencies.~~contingencies, including certain pending legal and regulatory proceedings and other contingent matters. As of March 31, 2023, there have been no material changes to such matters as disclosed therein. See also Part II. "Other Information", Item 1. "Legal Proceedings", for a description of certain other pending environmental matters for which we have accrued contingent liabilities.

~~Recently Issued Accounting Standards~~

~~Our recently issued accounting standards~~Additionally, in the normal course of business, we are ~~described~~subject to various other pending and threatened legal proceedings in ~~Note 1 to~~which claims for monetary damages or other relief are asserted. We do not anticipate, at the ~~Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.~~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.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies, 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 Item 7., "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The application of our critical accounting policies 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. Due to the volatility of commodity prices, we are unable to predict future potential movements in the market prices for natural gas and NGLs at our ultimate sales points and, thus, cannot predict the ultimate impact of prices on our operations. Prolonged low, or significant, extended declines in, natural gas and NGLs prices could adversely affect, among other things, our development plans, which would decrease the pace of development and the level of our proved reserves. Increases in natural gas and NGLs prices may be accompanied by, or result in, increased well drilling costs, increased production taxes, increased LOE, increased volatility in seasonal gas price spreads for our storage assets and increased end-user conservation or conversion to alternative fuels. In addition, to the extent we have hedged our production at prices below the current market price, we will not benefit fully from an increase in the price of natural gas, and, depending on our then-current credit ratings and the terms of our hedging contracts, we may be required to post additional margin with our hedging counterparties.

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 3 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." Our OTC derivative commodity instruments are placed primarily with financial institutions and the creditworthiness of those institutions is regularly monitored. We primarily enter into derivative instruments to hedge forecasted sales of production. We also enter into derivative instruments to hedge basis. Our use of derivative instruments is implemented under a set of policies approved by our management-level Hedge and Financial Risk Committee and is reviewed by our Board of Directors.

~~Table of Contents~~

For derivative commodity instruments used to hedge our forecasted sales of production, which are at, for the most part, NYMEX natural gas prices, we set policy limits relative to the expected production and sales levels that are exposed to price risk. We have an insignificant amount of financial natural gas derivative commodity instruments for trading purposes.

The derivative commodity instruments we use are primarily swap, collar and option agreements. These agreements may require payments to, or receipt of payments from, counterparties based on the differential between two prices for the commodity. We use these agreements to hedge our NYMEX and basis exposure. We may also use other contractual agreements when executing our commodity hedging strategy.

We monitor price and production levels on a continuous basis and make adjustments to quantities hedged as warranted.

Table of Contents

A hypothetical decrease of 10% in the NYMEX natural gas price on ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 would increase the fair value of our natural gas derivative commodity instruments by approximately ~~$535~~$287 million and ~~$577~~$727 million, respectively. A hypothetical increase of 10% in the NYMEX natural gas price on ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 would decrease the fair value of our natural gas derivative commodity instruments by approximately ~~$542~~$208 million and ~~$581~~$333 million, respectively. For purposes of this analysis, we applied the 10% change in the NYMEX natural gas price on ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 to our natural gas derivative commodity instruments as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 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 4 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. Changes in market interest rates affect the amount of interest we earn on cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and the interest rate we pay on borrowings under our credit ~~facility.~~facility and Term Loan Facility. None of the interest we pay on our senior notes fluctuates based on changes to market interest rates. ~~A 1% increase in interest rates on~~There were no borrowings for the ~~borrowings~~three months ended March 31, 2023 under our credit facility ~~during the six months ended June 30, 2022 would have increased interest expense by approximately $6 million.~~or Term Loan Facility.

Interest rates on our 6.125% senior notes due 2025 and 7.00% senior notes due 2030 fluctuate based on changes to the credit ratings assigned to our senior notes by Moody's, S&P and Fitch. Interest rates on our other outstanding senior notes do not fluctuate based on changes to the credit ratings assigned to our senior notes by Moody's, S&P and Fitch. For a discussion of credit rating downgrade risk, see Item 1A., "Risk Factors – Our exploration and production operations have substantial capital requirements, and we may not be able to obtain needed capital or financing on satisfactory terms" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Changes in interest rates affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt. See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our debt and Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of fair value measurements, including the fair value measurement of our debt.

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. Our OTC derivative instruments are primarily with financial institutions and, thus, are subject to events that would impact those companies individually as well as the financial industry as a whole. We use various processes and analyses to monitor and evaluate our credit risk exposures, including monitoring current market conditions and counterparty credit fundamentals. Credit exposure is controlled through credit approvals and limits based on counterparty credit fundamentals. To manage the level of credit risk, we enter into transactions primarily with financial counterparties that are of investment grade, enter into netting agreements whenever possible and may obtain collateral or other security.

Approximately ~~20%~~60%, or ~~$1,112~~$938 million, of our OTC derivative contracts outstanding at ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 had a positive fair value. Approximately ~~17%~~36%, or ~~$477~~$710 million, of our OTC derivative contracts outstanding at December 31, ~~2021~~2022 had a positive fair value.

~~Table of Contents~~

As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we were not in default under any derivative contracts and had no knowledge of default by any counterparty to our derivative contracts. During the three months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we made no adjustments to the fair value of our derivative contracts due to credit related concerns outside of the normal non-performance risk adjustment included in our established fair value procedure. We monitor market conditions that may impact the fair value of our derivative contracts.

Table of Contents

We are exposed to the risk of nonperformance by credit customers on physical sales of natural gas, NGLs and oil. Revenues and related accounts receivable from our operations are generated primarily from the sale of our produced natural gas, NGLs and oil to marketers, utilities and industrial customers located in the Appalachian Basin and in markets that are accessible through our transportation portfolio, which includes markets in the Gulf Coast, Midwest and Northeast United States and Canada. We also contract with certain processors to market a portion of our NGLs on our behalf.

No one lender of the large group of financial institutions in the syndicate for our credit facility holds more than 10% of the financial commitments under such facility. The large syndicate group and relatively low percentage of participation by each lender are expected to limit our exposure to disruption or consolidation in the banking industry.

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~~first quarter of ~~2022~~2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Environmental Proceedings

GPU Consent Order Inaccuracies, PADEP. On December 16, 2020, EQT Production Company, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of EQT Corporation, entered into a Consent Order and Agreement (the GPU COA) with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (the PADEP), pursuant to which EQT Production Company agreed to install secondary containment around Gas Production Units (GPUs) located at wells that were drilled between October 8, 2016 and February 4, 2019. In January 2022, we discovered that the list of GPUs disclosed in the GPU COA was incomplete, and we promptly notified the PADEP of the inaccuracies. We are currently negotiating a settlement with the PADEP related to the inaccuracies in the GPU COA, and we anticipate that this matter will be resolved through a settlement in the near future; however, no assurance can be given that a final settlement will be reached. While we anticipate that the payment related to this matter will exceed $300,000, we expect that the resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Produced Water Release, Washington County, Pennsylvania. In December 2021, we discovered a produced water leak associated with a GPU disposal line at one of our well pad sites located in Washington County, Pennsylvania. We self-reported the release to the PADEP spill hotline on December 4, 2021, and initiated cleanup of the released produced water. The initial release was determined to be in excess of one barrel and we entered the remediation project into the PADEP's Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Act 2 Program (Act 2) for voluntary cleanup. In January 2022, we determined the release was larger than initially discovered and we disclosed this information to the PADEP on January 14, 2022. We submitted our Site

Table of Contents

Characterization Report to the PADEP on January 16, 2023, and we intend to initiate remediation of the impacted area according to the PADEP’s Act 2 guidelines. We are currently negotiating a settlement with the PADEP including this matter, as well as the Plugging Consent Order Non-Compliance matter described below. We anticipate that this matter will be resolved through a settlement in the near future; however, no assurance can be given that a final settlement will be reached. While we anticipate that payment related to this matter will exceed $300,000, we expect that the resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Plugging Consent Order Non-Compliance, PADEP. In November 2016, we voluntarily entered into a Consent Order and Agreement with the PADEP to plug a certain number of our abandoned wells on an annual basis, and to remit Well Site Restoration Reports and Well Plugging Certificates to the PADEP in connection with such efforts. In August 2022, the PADEP sent us a notification alleging that, although we had met or exceeded the requirements to plug the requisite abandoned wells within the agreed upon schedule, we had not met all of the administrative requirements for remitting Well Site Restoration Reports and Well Plugging Certificates. We resolved the administrative omissions in January 2023, and we are currently negotiating a settlement with the PADEP including this matter, as well as the Produced Water Release matter described above. We anticipate that this matter will be resolved through a settlement in the near future; however, no assurance can be given that a final settlement will be reached. While we anticipate that payment related to this matter will exceed $300,000, we expect that the resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
