Cautionary Statements
Disclosures in this current report on Form 8-K contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and Section 27A of the Securities Act. Statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts are forward-looking. Any such forward-looking statements are made based on information currently known and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those contained in EQTs filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018 and the registration statement on Form 10 filed by ETRN. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this current report on Form 8-K specifically include the expectations of plans, strategies, objectives and growth and anticipated financial and operational performance of ETRN, EQT and their subsidiaries, including whether the separation of ETRN from EQT (the Separation), the distribution of 80.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of ETRN by EQT to its shareholders (the Distribution), and the other transactions involving the Separation and the Distribution are completed, as expected or at all, and the timing of the Separation, the Distribution and such other transactions; whether the conditions to the Separation and the Distribution can be satisfied; whether the operational, financial and strategic benefits of the Separation and the Distribution can be achieved; and whether the costs and expenses of the Separation, the Distribution and the other transactions involving the Separation and the Distribution can be controlled within expectations. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. EQT has based these forward-looking statements on current expectations and assumptions about future events. While EQT considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and beyond EQTs control.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and EQT does not intend to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
