EQT Stock Rises on Optimistic Gas Output Outlook
EQT Corporation stock rose by 0.72 percent on September 23, 2026, reaching USD 51.20 per share on the NYSE.
The increase follows a production outlook that suggests EQT will produce more natural gas in 2026 while spending less than in the previous year.
This combination could improve cash generation if realized gas prices support the additional volume, according to Seeking Alpha.
EQT's second-quarter 2026 adjusted earnings per share came in at USD 0.39, down 13.3 percent year over year, while revenue reached USD 1.81 billion, a decline of 29.2 percent from the same period in 2025.
Despite selling more gas than expected, 597 Bcf against an estimate of 541 Bcf, EQT's average realized price was lower at USD 2.65 per Mcfe versus USD 2.94 per Mcfe anticipated.
