Kinetik remains a quality midstream player, with my buy rating supported by Kings Landing and New Mexico expansion potential. KNTK's dividend yield has increased to 6.3%, with a $0.81 quarterly payout and a robust buyback program, enhancing capital returns. Valuation is not cheap, with EV/EBITDA at 21.6x (forward 11.8x), making future upside dependent on EBITDA growth from Kings Landing and New Mexico.
Kinetik Holdings remains a compelling 'Buy' while maintaining a well-covered 6.4% dividend yield. KNTK posted record Q1 2026 adjusted EBITDA, driven by strong midstream logistics performance and favorable commodity price spreads. Growth catalysts include expanded customer contracts, Kings Landing sour gas conversion, and the ECCC pipeline, supporting long-term cash flow visibility and incremental expansion.
