unforeseen risks that may have a materially adverse impact on it.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or
revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Pennsylvania corporation, and not its consolidated subsidiaries, and references to "we," "us," "our," and the "Company" refer collectively to EQT
Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to "Appalachian Basin" refer to the area of the United States composed of those portions of
West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Kentucky and Virginia that lie in the Appalachian Mountains. References to "Tcfe" refer to trillion cubic
feet of natural gas equivalents, "Bcfe" refer to billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalents and "Mcfe" refer to thousand cubic feet of natural gas
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/33213/000104746920000278/a2240502z424b5.htm[1/17/2020 8:39:47 AM]


equivalents, in each such case, with one barrel of NGLs and crude oil being equivalent to 6,000 cubic feet of natural gas, and references to "MMcf"
refer to million cubic feet, "Mcf" refer to thousand cubic feet, "MBbls" refer to a thousand barrels and "MMBtu" refer to a million British thermal
units.
Our Company
We are a natural gas production company with operations focused in the cores of the Marcellus and Utica Shales in the Appalachian Basin. As the
largest producer of natural gas in the United States, based on average daily sales volumes, we are committed to being the premier producer of this
environmentally friendly, reliable, low-cost energy source, while maximizing the long-term value of our assets through operational efficiency and a
culture of sustainability.
We are differentiated from our Appalachian Basin peers in the scale and contiguity of our acreage position, with 17.5 Tcfe of proved natural gas,
NGLs and crude oil reserves across approximately 1.2 million gross acres, including approximately 1.1 million gross acres in the Marcellus play, as of
December 31, 2019. We believe our unique asset base supports a multi-year inventory of core combo-development projects, which consist of
developing multiple wells and pads simultaneously. Following a change in leadership in July of 2019, we have implemented an operational strategy
designed to leverage this differentiation to become the lowest cost operator in the Appalachian Basin, primarily by focusing on combo-development to
maximize operational efficiencies. We believe combo-development projects are key to delivering sustainably low well costs and higher returns on
invested capital. Beyond cost benefits, combo-development projects maximize reservoir recoveries, mitigate future curtailments and maximize the
capital efficiency of our midstream service providers.
Our operations consist of one reportable segment. We have a single, company-wide management team that administers all properties as a whole
rather than by discrete operating segments. We measure financial performance as a single enterprise and not on an area-by-area basis. Substantially all
of our assets and operations are located in the Appalachian Basin.
Recent Developments
Appointment of New Chief Financial Officer
On January 3, 2020, we announced the election of David M. Khani as EQT's Chief Financial Officer, effective as of such date. EQT's former
Interim Chief Financial Officer is serving in an executive advisory role to facilitate a smooth transition and assist in the execution of our strategic
initiatives.

Change in Operational Strategy Enabled by Successful 100-Day Plan
Following a successful proxy campaign by Toby Z. Rice and other proxy participants named in the proxy statement filed on May 20, 2019 (the Rice
Team), EQT's Board of Directors was substantially reconstituted at its annual meeting of shareholders on July 10, 2019 and, following that meeting,
Toby Z. Rice was appointed as EQT's President and Chief Executive Officer. Also following that meeting, we adopted the detailed transformation plan
(the 100-Day Plan) proposed by the Rice Team in its proxy campaign. The 100-Day Plan was designed to effect operational, organizational, cultural
and other changes to our business to facilitate the type of long-term planning required to pursue an operational strategy that prioritizes combo-
development, which is expected to lower operating costs and increase free cash flow generation.
In connection with our third quarter 2019 earnings release, we announced that the 100-Day Plan was a success, with an anticipated approximate
25% decrease in well costs, gross general and administrative costs and land and other capital expenditures in 2020 alone. Furthermore, drilling
efficiencies (measured in horizontal feet drilled per hour) increased by 50% and 20% in Pennsylvania Marcellus Shale and Utica Shale development,
respectively, in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Central to these achievements were the installation of proven
leadership, the establishment of a stable operations schedule focused on combo-development and the successful implementation of our proprietary
digital work environment. In addition, as part of the 100-Day Plan, the workforce was migrated into a simplified organizational structure to enhance
accountability, and the organization was streamlined to reduce overhead costs by approximately $65 million a year. Our operational and organizational
improvements are expected to result in annual cost savings in excess of $400 million.
By taking these foundational steps to ensure that we are able to execute project planning with the requisite level of accuracy and speed, we have
laid the groundwork to transition to a combo-development focus and to transform the Company into a modern and efficient natural gas producer that
we believe will be one of the lowest cost natural gas operators in the United States.
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/33213/000104746920000278/a2240502z424b5.htm[1/17/2020 8:39:47 AM]


Announced Deleveraging Plan
We plan to reduce absolute debt by approximately 30%, or approximately $1.5 billion, by mid-2020 through asset monetizations and increased free
cash flow (the Deleveraging Plan). The Deleveraging Plan contemplates generating targeted proceeds from monetizations of select, non-core
exploration and production assets, core mineral assets and/or our 19.9% retained equity interest in Equitrans Midstream. Until our leverage target is
achieved, we expect to use all free cash flow and divestiture proceeds to reduce debt.
The successful execution of the Deleveraging Plan is based on our current expectations, including with respect to matters beyond our control, and
is subject to change. There can be no assurance that we will be able to find attractive asset monetization opportunities or that any such transactions will
be completed on our anticipated timeframe, if at all. Furthermore, our estimated value for the assets to be monetized under the Deleveraging Plan
involves multiple assumptions and judgments about future events that are inherently uncertain; accordingly, there can be no assurance that the resulting
net cash proceeds from asset monetization transactions will be as anticipated, even if such transactions are consummated. Some of the factors that could
affect our ability to successfully execute the Deleveraging Plan include changes in the financial condition or prospects of prospective purchasers and the
availability of financing to potential purchasers on reasonable terms, the number of prospective purchasers, the number of competing assets on the
market, unfavorable economic conditions, industry trends and changes in laws and regulations. If we are not able to successfully execute the
Deleveraging Plan or otherwise reduce absolute debt to a level we believe appropriate, our credit ratings may be

lowered, we may reduce or delay our planned capital expenditures or investments, and we may revise or delay our strategic plans.

(a)
NGLs and crude oil reserves were converted at the rate of one barrel being equivalent to 6,000 cubic feet of natural gas.
Our estimate of proved natural gas, NGLs and crude oil reserves was prepared by our engineers and audited by the independent consulting firm of
Ryder Scott Company, L.P. Our estimated proved reserves were determined using average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior twelve months in
accordance with SEC guidance. For natural gas volumes, the average Henry Hub price of $2.58 per MMBtu as of December 31, 2019 was adjusted for
energy content, transportation fees and a regional price differential. For NGLs and crude oil volumes, the average West Texas Intermediate (WTI)
posted price of $55.69 per barrel as of December 31, 2019 was adjusted for quality, transportation fees and a regional price differential. All prices do not
give effect to derivative transactions and are held constant throughout the lives of the properties.
Our estimated 17.5 Tcfe of total natural gas, NGLs and crude oil proved reserves as of December 31, 2019 represents a decrease of approximately
4.3 Tcfe as compared to our estimated reserves as of December 31, 2018, which was driven by negative revisions in the undeveloped reserve category.
The implementation of our combo-development strategy has resulted in our (i) concentrating operations on our core assets and (ii) implementing new
development sequencing processes focused on maximizing efficiencies and productivity. While these steps are anticipated to result in an approximate
25% decrease in well costs, they will negatively impact proved undeveloped reserves as a result of (x) losing previously booked proved undeveloped
reserves that are now outside our substantially revised five-year capital allocation program for purposes of our reserves calculations and (y) executing a
development sequencing strategy that will result in increased probable-to-proved developed conversion (instead of proved undeveloped-to-proved
developed) than under the legacy development approach.
Based on the mix of our proved undeveloped and probable reserves, we estimate an undeveloped drilling inventory of approximately 1,685 net
locations in our Pennsylvania and West Virginia Marcellus Shale core, which, at our current drilling pace, gives us more than 15 years of drilling
inventory. We believe that our change in development strategy, coupled with our undeveloped inventory in a premier core asset base, will lead to
sustainable free cash flow generation and higher returns on invested capital.
Select Preliminary Fourth Quarter 2019 Results
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/33213/000104746920000278/a2240502z424b5.htm[1/17/2020 8:39:47 AM]


For the fourth quarter of 2019, we expect net sales volumes to be between 370 Bcfe and 375 Bcfe, which is towards the high end of our previously
announced guidance range of 355 Bcfe to 375 Bcfe.
Our average realized price, including the impact of cash settled derivatives, for the fourth quarter of 2019 is expected to be between $2.51 and
$2.56 per Mcfe. In addition, our average differential is
S-3
Table of Contents
expected to be between $(0.45) and $(0.40) per Mcf, which is within our previously announced guidance range of $(0.45) to $(0.25) per Mcf.
During the fourth quarter of 2019, capital expenditures are expected to be between $340 million and $360 million, which is within our previously
announced guidance range of $320 million to $370 million.
During the fourth quarter of 2019, we also expect to incur a non-cash impairment charge between $1.4 billion and $1.8 billion, principally related
to the following: (i) reducing the carrying value of certain proved and unproved properties as a result of management's potential monetization of select,
non-core exploration and production assets and depressed natural gas prices and (ii) the write-down of unproved properties which are primarily the
result of changes to our development strategy and renewed focus on a refined core operating footprint. This estimated non-cash impairment charge for
the fourth quarter of 2019 is subject to a number of assumptions and judgments and may change as we finalize our financial results for the year ended
December 31, 2019. It is also possible we may incur additional impairment charges in future periods as a result of the above factors or otherwise.
We have prepared the above estimates in good faith based upon our internal reporting and accruals as of and for the three months ended
December 31, 2019. Such estimates are preliminary and inherently uncertain and subject to change as we finalize our financial and operating data for
the fourth quarter of 2019. There can be no assurance that our final results for the fourth quarter of 2019 will not differ materially from these estimates.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are set forth under "Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk
Factors" in this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein.
Estimated 2020 Capital Expenditures
We expect our capital expenditures for 2020 to be between $1.25 billion and $1.35 billion, which has been reduced by $50 million, as compared to
the guidance provided in our third quarter 2019 earnings release, reflecting continued operational efficiencies. We plan to spend approximately
$1 billion of the total capital expenditures on reserve development, with approximately 65% to be spent in the Pennsylvania Marcellus, 20% in the
Utica and 15% in the West Virginia Marcellus.
These estimates are based on our current expectations and subject to change. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are
set forth under "Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated
by reference herein.

Interest Rate Adjustment
The interest rate payable on each series of notes will be subject to adjustment
from time to time if any of Moody's, S&P or Fitch (each as defined herein),
or, in any case, any Substitute Rating Agency (as defined herein),
downgrades (or subsequently upgrades) the credit rating assigned to the notes
of such series. See "Description of Notes--Interest Rate Adjustment."

Interest Payment Dates
Interest on the notes will be paid semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and
August 1 in each year, commencing on August 1, 2020.

Optional Redemption
EQT may redeem some or all of the notes at its option, at any time and from
time to time, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices described in this
prospectus supplement under the heading "Description of Notes--Optional
Redemption."

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the 2025 notes are redeemed on or after
January 1, 2025 (one month prior to the maturity date of the 2025 notes) or
the 2030 notes are redeemed on or after November 1, 2029 (three months
prior to the maturity date of the 2030 notes), the redemption price will be
100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed plus accrued and
unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. See "Description of
Notes--Optional Redemption."

Ranking
The notes will be senior unsecured debt obligations of EQT and will rank
equally with all of EQT's other unsecured and unsubordinated debt
obligations from time to time outstanding.
S-5
Table of Contents
The notes will be effectively subordinated to any of EQT's existing and
future secured debt to the extent of the assets securing that debt, and
structurally subordinated to all existing and any future debt and any other
liabilities of EQT's subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2019, EQT had
approximately $5.2 billion outstanding indebtedness with which the notes
will rank pari passu.

Further Issues
EQT may, at any time and from time to time, without notice to or consent of
the holders, issue additional debt securities of the same tenor, coupon and
other terms of a series of notes. Any such additional notes, together with the
notes of such series offered hereby, will constitute a single series of notes of
such series under the applicable Indenture (as defined herein); provided, that
any such additional notes that are not fungible with the notes of such series
for U.S. federal income tax purposes will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN
and/or other identifying number, if applicable, than the notes of such series.

Certain Covenants
The Indentures governing the notes will contain covenants that limit the
ability of EQT and its subsidiaries to incur debt secured by liens and enter
into sale and leaseback transactions and that limit the ability of EQT to
consolidate, merge or sell other than for cash or lease its assets substantially
as an entirety to another entity or to purchase the assets of another entity

substantially as an entirety. These covenants are subject to important
exceptions and qualifications, which are described in the "Description of
Notes" section of this prospectus supplement.

Use of Proceeds
We expect to receive aggregate net proceeds of approximately
$1,734.3 million from the sale of the notes to the underwriters after deducting
the underwriters' discount and other offering expenses payable by us.

We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering to redeem all of EQT's
outstanding floating rate notes due 2020 and all of EQT's 2.500% senior notes
due 2020, with the remaining proceeds to be used to repay or redeem other
outstanding indebtedness, including all or a portion of EQT's outstanding
4.875% senior notes due 2021.

Certain of the underwriters or their respective affiliates may be holders of the
indebtedness repaid or redeemed with the net proceeds of this offering and,
accordingly, may receive a portion of the net proceeds of this offering upon
such repayment or redemption.

Governing Law
The notes and the Indentures will be governed by the laws of the State of New
York.

Trustee, Registrar and Paying Agent
The Bank of New York Mellon.
