The Annual Meeting outcomes reflect strong shareholder alignment with EQT Corporation's governance and compensation strategies. The election of all 10 director nominees, with the lowest support for Hallie A. Vanderhider at over 450 million for votes, ensures board continuity. The approval of the Third Amendment to the 2020 LTIP is notable for investors, as it authorizes 34 million additional shares for equity incentives, removes the legacy Equitrans Midstream share pool from the 2024 acquisition, and extends the plan term to 2036, providing long-term flexibility for talent retention amid the company's growth phase. Say-on-pay approval signals endorsement of 2025 executive pay structures, while auditor ratification underscores audit committee stability. These results, detailed in the 2026 Proxy Statement, support ongoing strategic execution without material dissent.
