Bulls say / Bears say
Williams’ second-quarter adjusted EBITDA rose 6% year on year and AFFO increased 10%, while management lifted 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance to $8.3bn-$8.5bn. Dividend coverage was 2.26 times on an AFFO basis, supporting the case for a growing and well-covered payout. (Williams Companies)
The completed $5.5bn Momentum acquisition gives Williams more than 4,000 miles of Haynesville pipe, dedicated acreage and take-or-pay transport capacity. It strengthens the link between a major gas supply basin and growing Gulf Coast LNG, power and industrial demand, with further contracted expansion planned through the Shelby Connector and Delta Access projects. (Williams Companies, Reuters)
Williams is developing a second growth engine around data-centre power demand: Socrates’ first phase was completed on time and within budget, while Power Express was enlarged to 800 MMcf/d. A $5.34bn Blackstone joint venture also provides external capital for near-term Power Innovation projects, reducing the funding burden on Williams. (Williams Companies, Williams Companies)
A federal appeals court vacated a New Jersey water-quality certification for the Northeast Supply Enhancement project and sent the matter back to regulators. Williams still targets fourth-quarter 2027 service, but another approval process could delay cash flow or raise construction and financing costs. (Simply Wall St News)
The expansion cycle is consuming cash faster than the business generates it: 2026 growth capital is guided at $7.3bn-$7.9bn, before maintenance spending and the Momentum purchase. Williams has also issued $2.75bn of notes at coupons of 5.0%-6.4%, so leverage and interest costs remain important constraints while management expects 2026 and 2027 to be the tightest years. (Williams Companies, The Motley Fool)
Power Innovation adds a less proven operating business alongside Williams’ established pipeline operations. Fitch said project completion and meeting stringent availability targets under the power purchase agreements remain uncertain, leaving scope for execution problems even though the joint venture shares some of the risk.
