$NFGPress releaseOct 14, 2026, 6:30 AM ETRead the release

National Fuel Gas announced a board-approved plan to spin off its Integrated Upstream and Gathering business into an independent public company via a tax-free distribution of at least 80.1% of IUG shares, expected to close in the second half of 2027. Post-separation, National Fuel becomes a 100% rate-regulated natural gas company with nearly $5 billion of rate base, 1.1 million utility customers across Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania, and roughly 5 Bcf/day of contracted pipeline capacity. IUG will hold about 1.2 million net Appalachian acres, 1.1 Bcf/day of net production, and approximately 5 Tcf of proved reserves. David P.
