What this company does

AI

Kinder Morgan operates one of North America's largest energy infrastructure networks, including roughly 78,000 miles of pipelines, 136 terminals, and 700+ Bcf of natural gas storage. The company earns most of its revenue from fee-based services moving natural gas, refined products, and crude oil, supplemented by commodity sales tied to those operations. First-quarter 2026 net income jumped 36% to $976 million as recent expansions, including the $648 million Outrigger Energy gathering acquisition, lifted throughput across its natural gas franchise.

Key risks

AI
  • Heavy leverage: $32.1B total debt ($2.2B current) against $32.6B equity; Q1 interest expense of $430M consumes ~30% of operating income.
  • Commodity exposure rising: commodity sales jumped 22% YoY to $2.25B, increasing earnings sensitivity to natural gas, NGL, and CO2 price swings.
  • Derivative/hedge losses: $199M unrealized derivative loss in Q1 2026 swung AOCI from +$45M to -$137M, signaling adverse hedge mark-to-market.

Top questions investors are asking

AI
  1. 1

    Commodity sales jumped 22% to $2.25B while services grew only 7%—how much of the $299M operating income beat is sustainable versus commodity price tailwinds that could reverse?

  2. 2

    With $32B total debt, $2.2B current maturities, and OCI swinging to a $137M loss from $199M derivative markdowns, what's your refinancing plan and rate exposure for 2026?

  3. 3

    Capex rose to $804M while you took on net debt and AP fell $172M—is the dividend covered by sustainable FCF, or are buybacks/projects being deferred?
