After Floating $350M in New Stock, EQT Floats $350M in New Bonds
Last week EQT Corporation announced a deal to buy Chevron's considerable Marcellus/Utica assets (land and wells) for the lowball price of $735 million (see EQT Buys Chevron M-U Assets for $735M, Floats $350M in New Stock). EQT also announced, on the same day, they are floating up to 23 million new shares of company stock to help pay the purchase price, hoping to raise ~$350 million. On Friday EQT announced it will float new bonds (debt) to raise another $350 million, also meant to help pay for the Chevron purchase.
