Kinder Morgan盘后将公布Q3业绩，市场预期EPS 0.33美元、营收43.8亿美元——财报前瞻而非结果

Kinder Morgan ( KMI ) is set to report its third-quarter 2026 earnings on Wednesday, October 21, after the market close, with analysts expecting earnings per share of $0.33, up 13.8% year over year, and revenue of $4.38 billion, representing a 5.5% increase from the same period last year. According to analysts, Kinder Morgan has shown an incredible ability to bring projects to completion, at a time of high inflation rates, well within its original investments. The company has seen its share price jump up given the enormous opportunities that are available within the natural gas markets. "The firm's growth in share price has pushed its dividend to sub-4%; however, that hasn't changed our bullishness," SA Investing Group leader Value Portfolio said . Last month Kinder Morgan ( KMI ) and Williams Companies ( WMB ) were initiated with Buy ratings at Melius Research, as the midstream sector evolves from a cyclical commodity play into a high-yield utility hybrid, driven by power generation tied to data center load growth and global liquefied natural gas exports. Beyond earnings, Enterprise Products Partners ( EPD ), Kinder Morgan, and Western Midstream ( WES ) all have some of the highest debt ratings in the industry. "That in and of itself reduces a lot of the financial risks that the industry is known for...For a midstream company leverage in the 3.0 to 4.0 range is considered extremely low. All three of these have a a ratio that is considered investment grade. All three have been lowering their debt ratios lately," another SA analyst wrote. Over the last 2 years, KMI has beaten EPS estimates 50% of the time and has beaten revenue estimates 75% of the time. Over the last 3 months, EPS estimates have seen 5 upward revisions and 4 downward. Revenue estimates have seen 5 upward revisions and 0 downward.
