Kinder Morgan’s $9.6 Billion Pipeline Backlog Signals A Major Infrastructure Buildout!

Kinder Morgan’s second quarter of 2026 results demonstrated continued operational strength and financial performance above both prior year and internal forecasts. Adjusted EBITDA increased by 12%, and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) rose by 32% compared to the second quarter of 2025, with every business segment contributing positively to the quarter’s results. The company has raised its full-year guidance, now anticipating adjusted EBITDA at least 5% above the 2026 budget and adjusted EPS at least 12% higher than initially projected. The natural gas business exhibited notable volume growth, with transport volumes up 7% year-over-year and gathering volumes increasing 26%, driven largely by the Haynesville region where volumes jumped 54%. This growth is supported by promising demand drivers including LNG export capacity expansion and rising power generation requirements.
