Company Report

Kinder Morgan Earnings: AI Growth Likely to Add Second Leg to Gas Demand on Top of US LNG Exports

Kinder Morgan’s first-quarter earnings and 2024 outlook met our expectations. 2024 EBITDA is expected to be about $8.16 billion, up 8% from 2023, within striking distance of our $8.2 billion forecast. The growth is despite the weakness in US natural gas prices, as healthy results from storage, gathering volumes, and the recently completed STX Midstream deal helped. That said, gathering volumes are trending lower than initially expected due to price weakness, so Kinder expects to delay about 10% of its planned 2024 gathering and processing spending until the market can support it. After slightly increasing our long-term estimates for growth, we expect to increase our fair value estimate to $22 from $20 per share.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Kinder Morgan's natural gas midstream footprint is unrivaled in North America, giving it high-return investment opportunities as gas supply/demand fundamentals shift.

Bears

Kinder has yet to pursue stakeholder partnerships for new pipeline projects like its large Canadian peers have done, which could help improve stakeholder relations.
