Williams owns and operates energy infrastructure assets, primarily natural gas pipelines and gathering/processing facilities in the United States. Its core business is to connect natural gas supplies to markets by charging fees for the use of its pipelines and processing assets, creating a stable, fee-based revenue stream less exposed to commodity prices. The company also has a significant presence in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, where it ranks among the largest gatherers and processors of natural gas. Williams differentiates itself through a large, fixed-asset network that provides critical midstream services to utilities, local distribution companies, and industrial users, helping to move gas efficiently from supply sources to demand centers. The company’s goal is to reliably connect gas supplies to markets while maintaining steady cash flow from its pipeline and processing services and expanding its fee-based midstream footprint.

Williams' moat is permits, not steel: Transco's right of way supports a 39.54% operating margin

The Williams Companies (NYSE: WMB) owes its economic moat to permits more than steel, according to an Insider Monkey analysis. Its Transco pipeline runs from the Gulf Coast up the eastern seaboard, and rivals would need approval from every state the route crosses. Several attempts to build new pipe into the northeast have been abandoned after failing to win approvals. The business keeps 39.54% of revenue as operating profit, with return on equity at 21.50%. Revenue rose 7.80% last quarter, and borrowings equal 200.37% of equity. The stock closed at $71.28 on October 16, up 0.5% in six months. It trades at 26.81 times expected earnings and yields 2.95%. The same rules that shield Williams also limit its growth.

Williams (WMB) vs Kinder Morgan (KMI): which is a better stock to buy?

Williams (WMB) vs Kinder Morgan (KMI): which is a better stock to buy? Williams earns almost the same profit from two thirds of the sales, but Kinder Morgan costs 2.20 times book against 6.77 and funds its distribution from cash rather than borrowing. Published October 6, 2026 at 3:53 pm EDT The Williams Companies, Inc. (NYSE:WMB) was trading at around $71 on October 5, and Kinder Morgan, Inc. (NYSE:KMI) at around $32. Both own pipelines and charge for moving gas through them. Neither produces the gas or sets its price. When two companies collect tolls on similar assets, the comparison comes down to how much they collect per dollar of revenue and what they paid for the pipe. Williams collects more on every dollar: Start with what each company keeps from a dollar of toll. Williams produced $3.07 billion of net profit from $12.32 billion of revenue. Kinder Morgan produced $3.45 billion from $17.96 billion. Almost the same profit from two-thirds of the sales. For two businesses charging for the same service, that gap has to come from which pipelines they own and what sits at either end of them. The margins put a number on it, at 39.54% operating against 30.07%. Nine points between two toll collectors is not noise. Return on equity doubles the point, at 21.50% against 10.99%, and earnings grew 51.50% last quarter against 21.30%. On every measure of how well the asset converts, Williams is the better business. Kinder Morgan costs far less for the same tolls: Then you look at what each one costs, and the ranking inverts. Williams trades at 6.77 times book value. Kinder Morgan trades at 2.20 times. For a business whose value is literally pipe in the ground, book value is the measure that matters, and Williams costs three times as much per dollar of recorded asset. The gap narrows once debt is counted, to 14.85 times enterprise value to EBITDA against 13.21 times, because Williams carries debt-to-equity of 200.37% against 98.62%. Cash flow is where it stops being about price at all. Kinder Morgan produced $1.08 billion of levered free cash flow. Williams produced negative $1.52 billion. That is the better margin funding construction rather than owners. Williams is building pipe, and the building currently costs more than the tolls bring in, which is also why it yields 2.98% against 3.80%. Both are held for the distribution, so the comparison that matters is against other payers. We ranked this year's best performers here. The valuation case: Williams traded near $71 on October 5 after rising 10.95% over twelve months. Kinder Morgan traded near $32, up 11.24%. Sustainability is identical and sits outside both. Pipelines earn while gas flows, and neither management decides how much gas there is. On price, Kinder Morgan is cheaper on book value and on enterprise value. It also pays more and funds that distribution from cash it generated. Williams answers with nine more points of margin, double the return on equity, and faster earnings growth. A PEG ratio of 2.07 at Williams against 3.19 at Kinder Morgan is the one measure pointing back the other way. Ten stocks positioned for high returns in 2026 are named here. Conclusion: Kinder Morgan is the better of the two. It costs 2.20 times book against 6.77 times for assets doing the same job, pays 3.80% against 2.98%, and funds that distribution from $1.08 billion it generated rather than from borrowing. However, Williams converts a dollar of toll into far more profit, earning nine more points of operating margin and double the return on equity. Its negative $1.52 billion is construction rather than deterioration. The number to watch at Williams is free cash flow, because it turns positive the moment the building slows. Market sentiment: The Williams Companies, Inc. was held by 79 hedge funds with a combined stake value of about $2.13 billion at the end of Q2 2026 in the Insider Monkey database. This is down from 84 hedge fund holders with a cumulative investment value of around $2.14 billion in the previous quarter. Kinder Morgan, Inc. was held by 60 hedge funds with a combined stake value of about $1.92 billion at the end of the same quarter. This is down from 62 hedge fund holders with a cumulative investment value of around $2.28 billion three months earlier.

Williams raises $2.75B in debt as shares trade at double discount to analyst targets

Williams Companies has raised $2.75 billion through a multi-tranche senior notes offering, with maturities ranging from 2029 to 2056 and coupons between 5.000% and 6.400%. The new long-dated unsecured debt reshapes the company's funding mix and provides clearer visibility on fixed interest costs. Despite the fresh debt layer, Williams trades at a discount to both analyst targets and intrinsic estimates. The most followed narrative places fair value at $85.25 against a last close of $71.65, implying meaningful upside. Williams' connectivity to LNG export terminals positions it to capture throughput gains as US LNG exports grow. However, the company trades at a P/E of 28.5x, well above the US Oil and Gas industry average of 13.2x.

Williams Companies edges Energy Transfer in AI power race with pure natural gas play

Energy Transfer and Williams Companies, two major US midstream operators, are both positioned to benefit from surging natural gas demand driven by power-hungry data centres and AI infrastructure. According to the International Energy Agency, natural gas accounts for over 40% of grid electricity consumed by US data centres. However, Williams emerges as the stronger AI play. The company generates all its adjusted EBITDA from natural gas operations through Transco, the largest natural gas pipeline system in the US. Energy Transfer, whilst transporting roughly 30% of US natural gas production, only derives about 40% of its adjusted EBITDA from natural gas assets. Williams trades at 14 times this year's adjusted EBITDA versus Energy Transfer's 7 times. Energy Transfer offers a higher forward yield of 6.5% compared to Williams' 2.9%.

Court vacates New Jersey's permit for $1 billion Northeast gas pipeline.

Court vacates New Jersey's permit for $1 billion Northeast gas pipeline. PUBLISH DATE 10 Sep, 2026 at 2:39 pm The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit on Sep. 8 vacated New Jersey's water quality certification for the $1 billion Northeast Supply Enhancement natural gas pipeline, ruling that the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection failed to adequately demonstrate the project would comply with state water quality standards before issuing the permit. The decision sends the certification back to the agency for further review, creating another regulatory hurdle for one of the region's largest natural gas infrastructure projects. The proposed project, developed by Williams Companies through Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, would expand an existing interstate natural gas system by adding a new pipeline beneath Raritan Bay to transport additional gas from Pennsylvania to New York. The appeals court found that the department improperly deferred key monitoring and corrective measures until after issuing the certification and did not sufficiently explain how dredging contaminated bay sediments would meet New Jersey's environmental standards. The ruling follows years of regulatory reversals. New Jersey denied the project's certification in 2019 after concluding that the developer had not demonstrated compliance with water quality requirements and rejected another application in 2020 after New York denied a related permit. The department later approved a revised application in November 2025, prompting lawsuits from environmental organizations that argued unresolved concerns over contaminated sediments, monitoring requirements, and dredging impacts remained largely unchanged. The court did not permanently block the pipeline, leaving the department free to conduct additional analysis and issue a revised certification if it can adequately support its findings. Williams Companies maintained that the decision does not undermine the project's environmental case and continues to target a late-2027 completion while working with state regulators to address the court's concerns. The decision drew contrasting reactions across the energy sector. The Natural Resources Defense Council welcomed the ruling as an important safeguard for New Jersey waterways, arguing that stronger protections are needed before dredging can proceed in Raritan Bay. Meanwhile, the New Jersey Business & Industry Association described the decision as a procedural setback rather than a permanent rejection, emphasizing that the project remains eligible for further state review and continues to be viewed as an important investment in regional energy infrastructure.
