The earnings call reflected a generally positive outlook for Kinder Morgan, driven by strong financial growth, an expanding project backlog, and favorable conditions in the LNG export market. While there were some challenges in natural gas gathering volumes and CO2 segment, these were outweighed by the positive developments.

Company Guidance -

Q3 2025

During the quarterly earnings call on July 16, 2025, Kinder Morgan provided guidance highlighting their strong financial performance and future outlook. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter increased by 6% year-over-year, while adjusted EPS rose by 12%. The company expects to exceed its original budget for the year, partly due to contributions from the Outrigger acquisition. Looking ahead, the company projects significant growth in U.S. natural gas demand, with a 20% increase anticipated by 2030 according to WoodMac estimates. Kinder Morgan's project backlog grew from $8.8 billion to $9.3 billion, with $1.3 billion in new projects added, including Trident Phase 2 and the Louisiana Line Texas Access project. Approximately 50% of the projects in the backlog are aimed at serving power demand, with a backlog multiple of 5.6x, slightly improved from Q1. The company also anticipates significant cash tax benefits in 2026 and 2027 due to recent tax reforms, with no material cash taxpayer status expected until 2028. Despite challenges such as tariffs, Kinder Morgan remains confident in its strategy of investing in high-return projects while maintaining a solid balance sheet.
