Gathering expense per Mcfe decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to the Company's ownership of the gathering, transmission and storage assets acquired in the Company's acquisition of Equitrans Midstream (the Equitrans Midstream Merger) completed in the third quarter of 2024 and the Company's ownership of additional interest in gathering assets located in
Transmission expense per Mcfe increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to capacity charges on the Mountain Valley Pipeline (the MVP) and additional contracted capacity on the Transco pipeline, partly offset by capacity released in connection with the NEPA Non-Operated Asset Divestitures.
Processing expense per Mcfe increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to increased production of gas requiring processing from wells turned-in-line since the first quarter of 2024.
O&M expense per Mcfe increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 as a result of the Company's operation of the gathering, transmission and storage assets acquired in the Equitrans Midstream Merger.
SG&A expense per Mcfe increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to higher personnel costs due to increased workforce headcount, including as a result of the Equitrans Midstream Merger.

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, diluted EPS, net income, net cash provided by operating activities, total Production 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 EPS
Adjusted net income attributable to EQT is defined as net income attributable to EQT Corporation, excluding 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.
As a result of the Class B Unitholder's noncontrolling equity interest ownership in the Midstream JV that commenced on December 30, 2024, the Company has adjusted its non-GAAP measure of adjusted net income attributable to EQT. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, adjusted net income attributable to EQT and the related non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted EPS are no longer adjusted for income from investments, distributions received from equity method investments or non-cash interest expense (amortization). Adjusted net income attributable to EQT and adjusted EPS presented in this news release for the comparative period have also been calculated based on the updated definition.
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.
The table below reconciles adjusted net income attributable to EQT and adjusted EPS with net income attributable to EQT Corporation and diluted EPS, respectively, the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, each as derived from the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Operations to be included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests and Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to EQT
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization, 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 EBITDA attributable to EQT is defined as adjusted EBITDA less adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests. Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests is defined as the proportionate share of adjusted EBITDA attributable to the third-party ownership interests in the Non-Wholly-Owned Consolidated Subsidiaries (defined below).
As a result of the Company's completion of the Equitrans Midstream Merger in July 2024, which meaningfully increased the Company's equity method investments, the Company adjusted its non-GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA. Beginning in the third quarter of 2024, adjusted EBITDA was changed to include distributions received from equity method investments. In addition, as a result of the Class B Unitholder's noncontrolling equity interest ownership in the Midstream JV that commenced on December 30, 2024, beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests meaningfully impacted the Company's consolidated results, and, therefore the Company began presenting adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests presented in this news release for the prior comparative period has also been calculated based on the updated definition, and, certain prior period amounts have been recast for comparability.
The Company's management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations because they help 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. In addition, adjusted EBITDA includes the impact of distributions received from equity method investments, which excludes the impact of depreciation included within equity earnings from equity method investments and helps facilitate comparisons of the core operating performance of the Company's equity method investments.
The table below reconciles adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA attributable to EQT with net income, the most comparable financial measure as 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 March 31, 2025.

In this news release, the Company has disclosed the average annual adjusted EBITDA (defined as net income excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and the revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement) expected to be generated by the Olympus Energy assets during 2025 – 2027. However, the Company has not provided average annual net income expected to be generated from the Olympus Energy assets during such years or a reconciliation of the Olympus Energy assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual adjusted EBITDA to the assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual net income, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Net income includes the impact of income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and the revenue impact of changes in the projected fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement, which may be significant and difficult to project with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Therefore, the Company is unable to provide projected 2025 – 2027 average annual net income from the Olympus Energy assets, or the related reconciliations of projected 2025 – 2027 average annual adjusted EBITDA from the Olympus Energy assets to projected 2025 – 2027 average annual net income therefrom, without unreasonable effort.
Adjusted Operating Cash Flow, Adjusted Operating Cash Flow Attributable to EQT, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow Attributable to EQT and Unlevered Free Cash Flow
Adjusted operating cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less changes in other assets and liabilities. Adjusted operating cash flow attributable to EQT is defined as adjusted operating cash flow less adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests excluding net interest expense attributable to noncontrolling interests. Free cash flow is defined as adjusted operating cash flow less accrual-based capital expenditures and capital contributions to equity method investments. Free cash flow attributable to EQT is defined as adjusted operating cash flow attributable to EQT less accrual-based capital expenditures and capital contributions to equity method investments excluding the proportionate share of accrual-based capital expenditures and capital contributions to equity method investments attributable to the third-party ownership interests in the Non-Wholly-Owned Consolidated Subsidiaries. The Company's management believes adjusted operating cash flow, adjusted operating cash flow attributable to EQT, free cash flow and free cash flow attributable to EQT 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.
As a result of the Company's completion of the Equitrans Midstream Merger in July 2024, which meaningfully increased the Company's equity method investments, the Company adjusted its non-GAAP measure of free cash flow. Beginning in the third quarter of 2024, free cash flow was changed to exclude capital contributions to equity method investments. In addition, as a result of the Class B Unitholder's noncontrolling equity interest ownership in the Midstream JV that commenced on December 30, 2024, the amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests meaningfully impacted the Company's consolidated cash flows, and, therefore the Company began presenting free cash flow attributable to EQT. Free cash flow and free cash flow attributable to EQT presented in this news release for the prior comparative period has also been calculated based on the updated definition, and, certain prior period amounts have been recast for comparability.
The Company's management believes these measures 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.
The tables below reconcile adjusted operating cash flow, adjusted operating cash flow attributable to EQT, free cash flow and free cash flow attributable to EQT with net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, as derived from the Statements of Condensed Consolidated Cash Flows to be included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

In this news release, the Company has disclosed the average annual unlevered free cash flow expected to be generated by the Olympus Energy assets during 2025 – 2027. Unlevered free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less changes in other assets and liabilities, accrual-based capital expenditures, capital contributions to equity method investments and interest expense. The Company has not provided the Olympus Energy assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual net cash provided by operating activities or reconciliations of the Olympus Energy assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual unlevered free cash flow to the Olympus Energy assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company is unable to project net cash provided by operating activities for any future period because this metric includes the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities related to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements that may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred. The Company is unable to project these timing differences with any reasonable degree of accuracy without unreasonable efforts such as predicting the timing of its payments and its customers' payments, with accuracy to a specific day, months in advance. Furthermore, the Company does not provide guidance with respect to its average realized price, among other items, that impact reconciling items between net cash provided by operating activities and unlevered free cash flow. Natural gas prices are volatile and out of the Company's control, and the timing of transactions and the income tax effects of future transactions and other items are difficult to accurately predict. Therefore, the Company is unable to provide the Olympus Energy assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual net cash provided by operating activities, or the related reconciliations of the Olympus Energy assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual unlevered free cash flow to such assets' projected 2025 – 2027 average annual net cash provided by operating activities, without unreasonable effort.
Production Adjusted Operating Revenues
Production adjusted operating revenues (also referred to as total natural gas and liquids sales, including cash settled derivatives; and, prior to the Equitrans Midstream Merger, was referred to as adjusted operating revenues) is defined as total Production operating revenues, less the revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement and Production 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. Production 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 Production net marketing services and other revenues because it is unrelated to the revenue from the Company's natural gas and liquids production.
The table below reconciles Production adjusted operating revenues with total Production 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 March 31, 2025.

Net Debt
Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. Total debt includes the Company's current portion of debt, revolving credit facility borrowings, term loan facility borrowings and senior notes. 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 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to be included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 and included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

(a) | As of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the current portion of debt included Eureka Midstream, LLC's (Eureka Midstream) revolving credit facility. Eureka Midstream is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eureka Midstream Holdings. As of September 30, 2024, the current portion of debt included EQM Midstream Partners, LP's |
(b) | As of September 30, 2024, revolving credit facility borrowings included |
The Company has not provided a reconciliation of projected net debt to projected total debt, the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company is unable to project total debt for any future period because total debt is dependent on the timing of cash receipts and disbursements that may not relate to the periods in which the operating activities occurred. The Company is unable to project these timing differences with any reasonable degree of accuracy and therefore cannot reasonably determine the timing and payment of revolving credit facility borrowings or other components of total debt without unreasonable effort. Furthermore, the Company does not provide guidance with respect to its average realized price, among other items that impact reconciling items between certain of the projected total debt and projected net debt, as applicable. Natural gas prices are volatile and out of the Company's control, and the timing of transactions and the distinction between cash on hand as compared to revolving credit facility borrowings are too difficult to accurately predict. Therefore, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of projected net debt to projected total debt, without unreasonable effort.
