What's in the Offing for Kinder Morgan's (KMI) Q2 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Kinder Morgan, Inc. (KMI - Free Report) is set to report second-quarter 2023 earnings on Jul 19, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company’s adjusted earnings per share of 30 cents beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny due to higher gathering and transport volumes. The positives were partially offset by lower contributions from Product Pipelines.
Kinder Morgan’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate once, met twice and missed the same once in the trailing four quarters, the negative average surprise being 2.6%. This is depicted in the graph below:
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share of 23 cents has witnessed no upward and two downward revisions over the past 30 days. The estimated figure suggests a 14.8% decline from the prior-year reported number.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter revenues of $4.4 billion indicates a 15.4% decline from the year-ago reported figure.
Factors to Note
Being a transporter of 1.7 million barrels per day of refined products, Kinder Morgan is the largest independent transporter of refined products in North America. Higher volumes transported in its pipeline systems are likely to have boosted the company’s profit levels in the second quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for KMI’s Natural Gas Pipelines segment’s earnings before depreciation expense and amortization expense (EBDA) for the second quarter is pegged at $1,202 million, suggesting an improvement from $1,134 million in the prior-year reported quarter. Our estimate for revenues from KMI’s Natural Gas Pipelines segment EBDA is also expected to increase year over year in the second quarter.
However, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues from KMI’s Natural Gas Pipelines segment for the second quarter is pegged at $2,953 million, suggesting a decline from $3,356 million in the prior-year reported quarter. Our estimate for revenues from KMI’s Natural Gas Pipelines segment is also expected to decline year over year in the second quarter.
This is likely to have affected Kinder Morgan’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
