Neal Dingmann has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, including EQT’s stronger-than-expected first-quarter 2026 performance, which was driven by lower operating and midstream-related capital costs that boosted free cash flow. He views the reaffirmed 2026 production and capex outlook, alongside realized integration and efficiency gains, as evidence that the company is tracking ahead of full-year expectations and is executing well operationally.
EQT’s growing leverage to future LNG offtake, ongoing pipeline expansions, and alignment with rising data center-driven gas demand further support his constructive stance on the company’s long-term growth profile. Although the shares already trade at a modest premium EV/EBITDAX multiple to peers, he believes EQT’s high-quality asset base, midstream control, and free cash flow profile justify an even higher valuation, underpinning his view that the stock should outperform its sector.
In another report released today, Bank of America Securities also reiterated a Buy rating on the stock with a $74.00 price target.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 58 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is negative on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders selling their shares of EQT in relation to earlier this year.
