Our note on each quarter Kinder Morgan files

10-Q filed October 23: Kinder Morgan

Model value +7.6%

Revenue for the twelve months to September 2026 reached $18.3bn, up 11.7% on a year earlier. That pace eased from 12.5% a quarter earlier. Free-cash-flow margin held steady at 16.8%. Our model value climbs from $18.91 to $20.35 a share, still well short of the $34.43 share price. The rating stays Sell. At that price, the model implies the market expects cash flow to grow roughly 12.8% a year for five years. Set against the 2.0% a year revenue growth Kinder Morgan has actually delivered, that embedded expectation looks demanding.

The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~January 20, 2027 (estimated)

Kinder Morgan's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 11.7% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 16.8%.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$20 per share in the base case (~$11–$31 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 11.8% while net income grew 32.1%: a 20pp divergence.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • High operating margin. 29.0% of revenue is left as operating profit, against a median of 28.1% for oil & gas storage & transportation companies we cover.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.

Things to watch

  • Priced above our value. The share price of $32.71 is 39% above our value per share of $20.
  • High debt. Long-term debt exceeds cash by $30.4bn, more than 1.5 times annual revenue.
  • Gross margin slipping. Gross margin is down 9.1 points on a year ago.
  • Earnings expected to fall. The consensus expects earnings per share to fall 1% next year.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Kinder Morgan's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($3.6B, FY2026 Q3 TTM), growing 3.1% and 5.6% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 8.3% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$11–~$31 ; that spread sets a 35% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Kinder Morgan's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $3.6B, FY2026 Q3 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Kinder Morgan as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 7.8%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.64 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Our cash-flow model grows Kinder Morgan's revenue by +3.1% next year and +5.6% the year after, then fades back toward its own record by year five. Next year's rate weighs analysts' consensus (+0.8%, weight 70%) and the company's own record (+8.3%, weight 30%) . How the weights are set.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Kinder Morgan’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Implied vs realised volatility

Options look fairly priced

Implied volatility is within its normal range against realised. Selling options earns the usual premium, nothing extra.

  • Implied is 1.09× the last 60 days’ realised volatility , richer than 32% of the 229 stocks we screen today.
  • Puts and calls are priced at about the same implied volatility.
  • Why: implied is not far enough above realised, or not unusual against our coverage.

Our rule for “rich”: implied at least 1.2× 60-day realised (beyond measurement noise), above 1-year realised (not just a calm spell), and in the top 20% of our coverage that day. Never with results inside the option’s life. These are our conventions, built on research showing option prices usually imply more movement than follows, most when the gap is wide. How we judge this.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: rated Sell.

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

KMI Kinder Morgan Grade C+ $32.94

Own 100 shares, sell the $36.00 call expiring December 18, 2026 (46 days) for $0.22 a share — $22.00 per contract.

Previous session · Bid $0.22, ask $0.27, quoted Mon 2 Nov, 17:27 New York time with KMI at $32.94. Option prices move with the shares: check the live chain at your broker before trading.

  • If KMI ends below $36.00: you keep your shares and the $22.00 — 0.7% extra on the position, 5.3% a year at that pace.
  • If it ends above $36.00: your shares are sold at $36.00, a total return of 10.0% including the premium — at or above our value of ~$20.

Collar

Own the shares, buy the $31.00 put and sell the $36.00 call, both expiring December 18, 2026 (46 days).

  • Net cost of $0.30 a share ($30.00 per contract of 100 shares).
  • Worst case at expiry: -6.8%, if the shares fall below $31.00 (-5.9% from today).
  • Best case at expiry: +8.4%, if the shares rise above $36.00 (+9.3%); gains beyond that go to the call buyer.

Offered because the shares trade at or above our fair value of $20.00: a way to hold on with a floor under the price, paid for by giving up upside the model does not expect. Strikes near 25-delta; the put at its ask and the call at its bid. Protection has a cost over time: research on protective puts finds they have usually lowered returns.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
