EQT's ACCE composite score moved from 79 to 91, a 12-point jump that puts EQT Corporation among the higher-rated names in the Energy sector on our platform. The updated breakdown shows Growth at 100/100, Value at 88/100, and Quality at 86/100. A move of this size typically reflects meaningful improvement across at least two of those three subscore pillars, not just a single data point shifting.
The stock currently trades at $51.38, against an analyst consensus target of $69.96 and an ACCE 6-model fair value of $75.52. That fair value estimate implies 47.0% upside from the current price — a gap wide enough to attract attention on its own.
What it means
A Growth subscore of 100 is the ceiling, and the underlying data supports it. Year-over-year revenue grew 49.9%, and year-over-year earnings grew 490.0%. That kind of earnings acceleration — nearly a fivefold increase — is the sort of figure that can push a growth subscore to its maximum in a single reporting cycle. When earnings grow that fast relative to the prior year, models that weight earnings momentum heavily will respond sharply.

The Value subscore of 88 reflects a trailing P/E of 9.7 and a forward P/E of 11.0. For an energy producer showing this level of earnings growth, those multiples are low by most conventional measures. A forward P/E in the low double digits combined with a 47% discount to fair value gives the value subscore room to run high without stretching any assumptions.
Quality at 86 is backed by concrete numbers: net margin of 35.1%, return on equity of 13.4%, FCF yield of 8.9%, and an earnings quality flag of strong. A 35% net margin in energy is not common. The FCF yield near 9% means the business is converting earnings into cash at a healthy rate, which matters when assessing whether reported profits are durable.
One note of caution: the 1-year price return is -12.7%. The stock has moved lower even as the fundamentals improved, which is part of why the fair value gap looks as wide as it does. Score improvements reflect what the data shows today, not a prediction of when or whether the market re-rates the stock. Energy names can stay out of favor for extended periods regardless of underlying metrics.
The dividend yield sits at 1.3%, modest for the sector, suggesting the company is not leaning on income to attract buyers.
