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 of the information and footnotes required by United States 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 September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the results of its operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 and its cash flows and equity for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “EQT,” “EQT Corporation,” and the “Company” refer collectively to EQT Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2017 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes as well as “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

During the third quarter of 2018, the Company repurchased 9,946,382 shares at an average price of $50.29 pursuant to the Company's previously announced $500 million share repurchase program. This exhausted the Company's share repurchase authorization under such program.

On November 13, 2017, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Rice Energy Inc. (Rice) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 19, 2017 (as amended, the Rice Merger Agreement), by and among the Company, Rice and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company (RE Merger Sub). Pursuant to the terms of the Rice Merger Agreement, on November 13, 2017, RE Merger Sub merged with and into Rice (the Rice Merger) with Rice continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. Immediately thereafter, Rice merged with and into another wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the Rice Merger, the Company also acquired Rice's interests in RM Partners LP (formerly known as Rice Midstream Partners LP) (RMP). See Note E. The purchase price allocation for the Rice Merger remains preliminary as of September 30, 2018.

Unaudited Pro Forma Information

The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information presents the Company’s results as though the Rice Merger had been completed at January 1, 2017. The pro forma combined financial information has been included for comparative purposes and is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have actually occurred had the Rice Merger taken place on January 1, 2017; furthermore, the financial information is not intended to be a projection of future results.
