EQT Seeks to Extend Note Redemption Extra 6 Mos. for Tug Hill Deal

Last September, EQT Corporation announced it is buying privately-owned Tug Hill Operating’s West Virginia shale assets for $5.2 billion (see Confirmed: EQT Buys Tug Hill’s THQ Appalachia for $5.2 Billion). The deal adds 90,000 acres and 800 MMcf/d (million cubic feet per day) of production to EQT’s existing, massive, portfolio. But the Bidenistas at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) got involved, slowing down the deal. Because of the FTC dragging its feet, EQT and Tug Hill recently renegotiated the timeline, adding a full year--to the end of 2023 (see EQT $5.2B Deal to Buy Tug Hill Extended Additional Year to Close). Now EQT needs to extend the timeline for notes it issued as part of the purchase.
