Summary
EQT Corporation and Range Resources Corporation have agreed to merge in an all-stock deal in which Range would become an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of EQT, under a merger agreement unanimously approved by both boards and announced in an EQT filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Key points
- Each outstanding share of Range common stock would convert into 0.987 shares of EQT common stock, leaving EQT's existing shareholders with roughly 73% and Range's stockholders roughly 27% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis.
- Closing is conditioned on adoption of the merger agreement by a majority of Range's voting shares, approval of the share issuance by a majority of votes cast at an EQT shareholders' meeting, NYSE listing approval, and expiration or termination of Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting periods.
- Range CEO and President Dennis L. Degner and one other Range designee would join an expanded 12-member EQT board at the effective time, with EQT agreeing to nominate them at its next annual meeting.
- Under specified circumstances Range would owe EQT a $423 million termination fee and EQT would owe Range $1,148 million, and either party may terminate if the merger is not completed by October 25, 2027, a date automatically extendable to April 25, 2028 in certain cases.
