Notes to the Preliminary Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

 

1.       Basis of Presentation

 

The preliminary pro forma financial statements have been prepared to reflect the effect of the Acquisition on the consolidated financial statements of EQT. The preliminary unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet (the preliminary pro forma balance sheet) is presented as if the Acquisition had occurred on December 31, 2022. The preliminary unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations (the preliminary pro forma statement of operations) for the year ended December 31, 2022 is presented as if the Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022. The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted to reflect factually supportable items that are directly attributable to the Acquisition.

 

The preliminary pro forma financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting using the accounting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, with EQT treated as the acquirer. The acquisition method of accounting is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have yet to commence or progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measure. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary, have been made solely for the purpose of providing preliminary pro forma financial information, and are subject to revision based on a final determination of fair value as of the closing date of the Acquisition. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final purchase price allocation may have a material impact on the accompanying preliminary pro forma financial statements.

 

The Upstream Seller and Midstream Seller historical amounts have been derived from the audited financial statements filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-K. Certain of the historical amounts of the Upstream Seller and the Midstream Seller have been reclassified to conform to the financial presentation of EQT. The preliminary pro forma adjustments include the removal of certain accounts of Upstream Seller and Midstream Seller, respectively, to present the accounts of the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies given that these accounts are not included in the Acquisition. The preliminary pro forma financial statements are provided for informational purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position of EQT would have been had the Acquisition occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

 

2.       Pro Forma Adjustments and Assumptions

 

The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions that EQT believes are reasonable. The actual effects of the Acquisition will differ from the pro forma adjustments. A general description of the pro forma adjustments are provided below.

 

(a)Pro forma adjustments to reflect the estimated value of net consideration to be paid by EQT in the Acquisition and the adjustment of the historical book values of the assets and liabilities of the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies as of December 31, 2022 to their estimated fair values. The following table represents the preliminary purchase price allocation to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies. This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare pro forma adjustments in the preliminary pro forma balance sheet and the preliminary pro forma statement of operations. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when EQT has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations subsequent to closing the Acquisition. The final purchase price allocation will differ from these estimates and could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the pro forma adjustments.

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, consideration for the Acquisition will consist of a base amount of (i) $2.6 billion in cash and (ii) 55 million shares of EQT common stock, plus or minus certain purchase price adjustments as defined in the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price adjustments, with the exception of the purchase price adjustments specifically related to the value of the acquired derivative instruments which will be applied 100% to the cash consideration, will be applied evenly to the cash and stock consideration, with the adjustments to the stock consideration being determined by dividing 50% of the purchase price adjustments by $48.01. As of December 31, 2022, the calculation would result in the issuance of approximately 50.2 million shares of EQT common stock valued at $1,700 million (based on the closing stock price as of December 31, 2022 of $33.83) and cash paid of $2,392 million after giving effect of approximately $437 million of certain net purchase price adjustments. The effective date of the Acquisition is July 1, 2022.

 

 

 

 

The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to change as a result of several factors, including but not limited to:

 

changes in the market value of the shares of EQT common stock issued as consideration;
changes in the purchase price adjustments defined in the Purchase Agreement increasing or decreasing the consideration, including increasing or decreasing the number of shares issued as consideration;
changes in the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies as of the closing date of the Acquisition, which could result from changes in future commodity prices, reserve estimates, cost assumptions, interest rates and other facts and circumstances existing as of the closing date of the Acquisition compared to the preliminary pro forma financial statements included herein; and
the tax basis of the assets and liabilities of the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies as of the closing date of the Acquisition.

 

     Preliminary Purchase
Price Allocation
 
     (Thousands) 
  Consideration:     
  Equity  $1,699,564 
  Cash   2,391,729 
  Settlement of pre-existing relationships   (15,540)
  Total consideration  $4,075,753 
        
  Fair value of assets acquired:     
  Cash and cash equivalents  $3,447 
  Accounts receivable, net   193,437 
  Derivative instruments, at fair value   156,601 
  Prepaid expenses and other   3,181 
  Property, plant and equipment   4,015,459 
  Other assets   5,999 
  Amount attributable to assets acquired  $4,378,124 
        
  Fair value of liabilities assumed:     
  Accounts payable  $220,517 
  Derivative instruments, at fair value   30,446 
  Other current liabilities   2,621 
  Other liabilities and credits   48,787 
  Amount attributable to liabilities assumed  $302,371 

 

The final value of total consideration paid by EQT will be determined based on the aggregate amount of purchase price adjustments calculated in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the resulting number of EQT shares issued based on said purchase price adjustments and the market price of EQT's common stock at the closing date of the Acquisition. A 10% increase or decrease in the closing price of EQT common stock, as compared to the December 31, 2022 closing price of $33.83, would increase or decrease the total consideration by approximately $170.0 million, assuming all other factors held constant.

 

 

 

 

The estimated fair value of property, plant and equipment to be acquired based on information available as of the preparation of the preliminary pro forma financial statements included the following:

 

     Preliminary Purchase
Price Allocation
 
      (Thousands) 
  Natural gas and oil proved properties  $2,990,859 
  Natural gas and oil unproved properties   325,613 
  Other property, plant and equipment   698,987 
  Preliminary pro forma fair value of property, plant & equipment  $4,015,459 

 

The preliminary pro forma fair value of natural gas properties acquired from the Upstream Companies was measured using valuation techniques that convert future cash flows into a single discounted amount. Significant inputs to the valuation of natural gas and oil properties include estimates of: (i) recoverable reserves; (ii) production rates; (iii) future operating and development costs; (iv) future commodity prices; and (v) a market-based weighted average cost of capital. NYMEX strip pricing as of December 31, 2022, adjusted for forward basis differentials, was utilized in determining the pro forma fair value of reserves at a discount rate of 12.2%, after adjustment for expenses and basis differential. An increase or decrease in commodity prices, recoverable reserves, future operating or development costs or any of the other inputs noted above, as of the closing date, will result in a corresponding increase or decrease in the fair value of natural gas properties.

 

The preliminary pro forma fair value of acquired midstream gathering systems acquired from the Midstream Companies, including the related compression assets, and the acquired processing facilities (collectively the Midstream Assets) was measured primarily using the cost approach. Significant inputs to the valuation of the Midstream Assets include replacement costs for similar assets, relative age of the acquired Midstream Assets and any potential economic or functional obsolescence associated with the acquired Midstream Assets.

 

(b)Pro forma reclassifications were made to conform to EQT's presentation, including:
   
i.the reclassification of $10.4 million of other assets to derivative instruments, at fair value, and $0.4 million of other liabilities and credits to derivative instruments, at fair value;
   
ii.the reclassification of $1.1 million of other current liabilities to accounts payable ($0.9 million) and other liabilities and credits ($0.3 million);
   
iii.the reclassification of lease abandonment expense of $16.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from exploration expense to impairment and expiration of leases;
   
iv.the reclassification of $1.2 million and $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from selling, general and administrative expense to other operating expenses from Upstream Seller and from Midstream Seller, respectively;
   
v.the reclassification of midstream and processing revenues to net marketing and other revenues; and
   
vi.the reclassification of midstream operating and processing operating expenses to production expense.

 

(c)Pro forma adjustments to eliminate certain accounts attributable to the Upstream Seller and the Midstream Seller, which EQT is not acquiring or assuming including:

 

  i. Elimination of $30.1 million of cash and cash equivalents from Upstream Seller;
     
  ii. Elimination of $91.0 million of current derivative instruments, at fair value, $46.0 million of non-current derivative instruments, at fair value (included in other assets), $417.3 million of current derivative instruments, at fair value and $112.4 million of non-current derivative instruments, at fair value (included in other liabilities and credits) from Upstream Seller;

 

 

 

 

  iii. Elimination of $13.8 million of restricted cash (included in other assets) from Upstream Seller;
     
  iv. Elimination of $8.9 million and $1.0 million of accounts payable from Upstream Seller and from Midstream Seller, respectively;
     
  v. Elimination of $150.0 million of other current liabilities from Upstream Seller;
     
  vi. Elimination of $508.8 million and $157.3 million of credit facility borrowings from Upstream Seller and from Midstream Seller, respectively;
     
  vii. Elimination of $994.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 of loss on derivatives from Upstream Seller;
     
  viii. Elimination of $1.0 million of selling, general and administrative from Midstream Seller for the year ended December 31, 2022; and
     
  ix. Elimination of interest expense of $32.0 million and $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from Upstream Seller and from Midstream Seller, respectively.

 

(d)Pro forma adjustments to conform to EQT's accounting policies, including:
   
i.the elimination of certain water-related lease operating expenses from production expense.

 

(e)Pro forma adjustments to increase or decrease depreciation and depletion expense due to the following:
   
i.The increase in the estimated fair value of property, plant and equipment.
   
ii.The depreciation of gathering and water pipelines over a 50-year useful life and the depreciation of compression, measurement and processing assets over a 25-year useful life separate from the upstream oil and gas assets.
   
iii.The increase in accretion expense related to the higher asset retirement obligation liability which was adjusted to reflect EQT's internal plugging cost estimates, discount rate, and useful life estimates.

 

(f)Pro forma adjustments to eliminate historical transactions between EQT and the Upstream Companies that would be treated as intercompany transactions on a consolidated basis, including:

 

  i. Elimination of $15.5 million of accounts payable by EQT to the Upstream Companies for natural gas liquids sales as of December 31, 2022; and
     
  ii. Elimination of $15.5 million of accounts receivable, net from EQT to the Upstream Companies for natural gas liquids sales as of December 31, 2022; and
     
  iii. Giving effect to the $150.0 million of other assets which represents EQT's deposit for the Acquisition, which was previously paid pursuant to the Purchase Agreement but is included as part of cash consideration within the preliminary purchase price allocation described in (a) above.

 

(g)Pro forma adjustments to eliminate historical transactions between the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies that would be treated as intercompany transactions on a consolidated basis by EQT, including:

 

  i. Elimination of $82.2 million of transportation and processing expenses of the Upstream Companies for the year ended December 31, 2022 related to volumes gathered by the Midstream Companies, including $16.3 million of accounts payable as of December 31, 2022; and
     
  ii. Elimination of $82.2 million of net marketing services and other revenues of the Midstream Companies for the year ended December 31, 2022 related to volumes gathered on behalf of the Upstream Companies including $16.3 million of accounts receivable, net as of December 31, 2022.

 

(h)Pro forma adjustment for estimated transaction costs of $49.6 million related to the Acquisition, including underwriting, banking, accounting and legal fees, including the legal fees related to complying with regulatory requirements from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.

 

(i)Pro forma adjustment to:

 

  i. Eliminate $981.7 million and $451.5 million of historical equity amounts of the Upstream Seller and the Midstream Seller, respectively;

 

 

 

  ii. Give effect to the $49.6 million of transaction related adjustments described in (h) above to retained earnings; and
     
  iii. Give effect to the $0.4 million and $(0.2) million of deferred income tax adjustments of the Upstream Seller and the Midstream Seller, respectively, described in (k) below to retained earnings.

 

(j)Pro forma adjustments to eliminate historical interest expense on the Midstream Companies that was paid to the Midstream Seller for intercompany debt that is not being assumed by EQT in the Acquisition.

 

(k)Pro forma income tax adjustments included in the preliminary pro forma statement of operations and preliminary pro forma balance sheet reflect the income tax effects of the historical information of the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies as well as the income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments presented herein. The pro forma income tax adjustments related to such historical information is to conform the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies historical information, which is derived based on a non-taxable flow through structure, with EQT's taxable corporate structure. The tax rate applied to the pro forma adjustments was the statutory federal and apportioned statutory state tax rate, net of the federal benefit of state taxes, applied to pre-tax income. The preliminary pro forma statement of operations also reflect the following nonrecurring adjustments to arrive at a deferred income taxes balance of $1,442.1 million for the preliminary pro forma balance sheet:

 

  i. Income tax expense of $20.9 million due to remeasurement of deferred income taxes to reflect the combined state apportionment rates; and
     
  ii. Income tax benefit of $9.5 million due to a reduction of EQT's deferred tax valuation allowance. Since the Upstream Companies and the Midstream Companies will be included in EQT's consolidated tax return following the Acquisition, the resulting reversal of temporary differences included in deferred income taxes related to the Acquisition allows EQT to realize a portion of its state deferred tax assets that previously had a valuation allowance.

 

(l)Pro forma adjustments to reflect the impact of the draw down of the term loan facility, the proceeds of which will be used to fund a portion of the cash consideration of the Acquisition:

 

  i. Increase in cash and cash equivalents of $1,244.4 million and senior notes of $1,237.3 million for the draw down of $1,250.0 million principal from our undrawn term loan, net of $12.7 million of debt issuance costs, inclusive of $7.1 million of debt issuance costs that were previously paid in connection with the original issuance of the term loan agreement and are currently recorded within other assets;
     
  ii. Increase in interest expense of $102.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 reflecting the additional interest that would have been incurred if the draw of the term loan was completed on January 1, 2022; and
     
  iii. Decrease in other assets for offering costs and deferred financing costs paid as of December 31, 2022 of $7.1 million.

 

The preliminary pro forma financial statements do not reflect any compensation related adjustments as certain personnel matters are evolving and any recurring impact from compensation adjustments would not be factually supportable.

 

3.       Supplemental Preliminary Pro Forma Natural Gas, NGLs and Crude Oil Reserves Information

 

The following tables present the estimated preliminary pro forma combined net proved developed and undeveloped, natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs) and crude oil reserves as of December 31, 2022, along with a summary of changes in quantities of net remaining proved reserves during the year ended December 31, 2022. The preliminary pro forma reserve information set forth below gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2022.

 

The following estimated preliminary pro forma reserve information is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Acquisition taken place on January 1, 2022 and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors, including those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

 

 

 

 

For all tables presented, NGLs and crude oil were converted at a rate of one million barrels (MMbbl) to approximately six billion cubic feet (Bcf), except in the case of the Upstream Seller Historical NGLs, which were converted at a rate of one MMbbl to 3.9 Bcf.
