EQT Corporation (SE0012853455) stock traded at $54.57 on August 28, 2026, after the company reported second-quarter EPS of $0.39 on revenue of $1.68 billion and a $0.02 earnings miss versus consensus.
Q2 kept the focus on gas
The latest quarter remains the key reference point for the shares. Revenue was $1.68 billion, down 29.2 percent from the same quarter last year, while adjusted EPS beat the estimate by $0.01 in the Yahoo Finance earnings history shown for June 30, 2026.
That mix matters because the stock still carries a $34.134 billion market cap, a 52-week range of $47.94 to $68.24, and a year-to-date gain of 1.81 percent as of August 28, 2026. The valuation sits close to a forward story that is still being priced against gas markets and analyst revisions.
Analysts stayed active
Analyst estimates on August 28, 2026 pointed to current-quarter revenue of $2 billion and current-quarter EPS of $0.49, with current-year EPS seen at $4.07. The same set of estimates also showed EPS revisions of 15 downward moves over the last 30 days, a sign that the market is still recalibrating expectations.
One recent rating update on August 19, 2026 kept an Overweight view but lowered the target to $67 from $68. That leaves the implied upside visible, even as the consensus target on the page sat at $67.68 and the top analyst score remained 68 out of 100.
What the business sells
EQT is a natural gas producer with exposure to exploration, production, gathering, and transmission in the Appalachian Basin. The company also sells natural gas, natural gas liquids, and oil to marketers, utilities, and industrial customers, which keeps the earnings profile tied to both volumes and pricing.
Shares and cash returns
The stock closed at $54.57 on August 28, 2026, with after-hours trading at $54.67 later that evening. EQT also lists a forward dividend of $0.66 per share and an ex-dividend date of August 5, 2026, which gives income-focused investors another dated data point to weigh against the earnings reset.
