What the Numbers Say It Is Worth
The Fair Value Range
Our framework reads STRONG OPPORTUNITY: it trades above our $45.01 fair value estimate, moderate competitive moat.
Fair value range in USD, drawn from the 2026-09-09 screen. The gold marker is the market price at the same screen. The price runs 17.6% above the base estimate.
Third-party analyst targets: 25 covering, consensus Strong Buy. The average target sits +23% from the screen price.
Reading the gap · Our more conservative model reads it as fully-to-richly valued here, while the Street is more bullish: a quality-at-a-fair-price name rather than a deep-value one.

The Business, in Plain Words
Gas producer showing momentum near fair value
Picture an Appalachian wellhead humming away while prices swing like a pendulum. EQT sits right in that flow, selling natural gas and liquids into a market that still needs the molecule. The business is posting 50% revenue growth, 35% profit margins and a moderate moat, all at a forward multiple of 11.9 times. That combination explains the strong opportunity tag and the narrow 4% margin above our $51.66 fair value.
Numbers like these stand out because the company clears our ethical screen and shows real cash generation rather than just hoped-for reserves. ROE at 13% is decent for the sector, and the analyst crowd leans buy with a median target well above the current $49.56 price. The setup looks attractive on paper.
Yet this remains a classic cyclical business where low multiples often signal peak earnings rather than a bargain. Energy prices can drop fast, and any volume or cost miss would compress those margins quickly. The modest safety cushion leaves little room for disappointment. Analysis, not advice.
The risks · The main risks here are ordinary market swings and the chance our fair-value read proves too optimistic.
