Received approvals from the Bureau of Land Management and the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division to fully proceed with the acid gas injection and sour conversion project at Kings Landing with expected in-service by year-end 2026
Secured additional Gulf Coast pricing for 2028 through 2030 that further mitigates Waha natural gas exposure
Affirming full year 2026 Financial Guidance:
- Adjusted EBITDA¹ guidance of $950 million to $1,050 million
- Capital Expenditures² guidance of $450 million to $510 million (including maintenance)

CEO Commentary

"Kinetik delivered a strong start to 2026, reflecting the strategic positioning of the business, as well as successful commercial and operational execution," said Jamie Welch, Kinetik's President & Chief Executive Officer. "Accounting for the divestiture of our stake in EPIC Crude Holdings LP ("EPIC Crude"), first quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $251 million represents a new quarterly record for the Company. Our financial performance was above internal expectations and reinforces our confidence in our 2026 guidance."

"While geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have introduced near-term commodity price volatility, Kinetik's fee-based, domestic midstream business model provides meaningful insulation. Elevated crude prices continue to support our oil-weighted customers' well economics, while gas price-sensitive customers have deferred some 2026 activity in response to negative Waha pricing; so on balance, we have not observed a material impact to producer activity levels for 2026 across our footprint. However, when looking ahead, we have seen and are continuing to see customers pull forward activity to early 2027, setting up for a strong year that coincides with new Permian egress capacity coming online."

Welch added, "Year to date through April, the Waha Hub is even more oversupplied and volatile than our original expectations with Waha gas daily averaging negative $2.37 per Mmbtu. We continue to experience price-related volume curtailments from our gas price-sensitive customers. While we are revising our 2026 processed gas volume growth assumptions to reflect these dynamics, our Gulf Coast transportation position more than offsets this impact by capitalizing on wider Permian to Gulf Coast price differentials. The scale and pace of incremental residue gas takeaway capacity from the Permian Basin continues to reshape the long‑term outlook with more than 5 Bcf/d of new capacity expected to be in service by early 2027 and an additional approximately 6 Bcf/d anticipated in 2028 and 2029."

"Against this backdrop, Kinetik is well positioned to capture the value of this structural Permian gas growth. The Durango amendments executed over the last four months, which extend roughly 75% of legacy volumes into the mid and late 2030s, the new agreements across Texas and New Mexico, and the incremental Gulf Coast natural gas pricing exposure through 2030 demonstrate our commercial strategy translating into multi-year earnings visibility."

Segment Insights

The Midstream Logistics segment generated Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $178.9 million, a 12% increase year-over-year. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Kinetik processed natural gas volumes of 1.81 Bcf/d, a 1% increase year-over-year despite an estimated 170 Mmcf/d of Waha price-related processed gas volume shut-ins. First quarter 2026 results benefited from stronger than expected system operating performance, higher fee and commodity margins, lower unit operating costs, and wider Waha to Houston Ship Channel basis spreads, partially offset by Waha price-related production shut-ins.

The Pipeline Transportation segment generated Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $78.0 million, a nearly 17% decrease year-over-year driven by the Company's divestiture of its equity interest in EPIC Crude. Permian Highway Pipeline and Kinetik NGL Adjusted EBITDA¹ grew modestly year-over-year on lower fuel costs and higher fee gross margin.

2026 Guidance Affirmed

Kinetik affirms full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA¹ guidance to be between $950 million and $1,050 million. Year-over-year processed gas volume is now estimated to grow low- to mid-single-digit percentage points. Original processed gas volume assumptions contemplated approximately 100 Mmcf/d of Waha price-related production shut-ins on average for the full year. The Company now estimates approximately 220 Mmcf/d of curtailments and additional 2026 timing adjustments to certain producer developments.

Kinetik is also maintaining its 2026 Capital Expenditures² guidance (including maintenance) of $450 million to $510 million for the full year.

Strategic Projects & Commercial Activity

Kinetik received all approvals from the Bureau of Land Management to proceed with acid gas compression at the surface facilities and drilling of the acid gas injection well at Kings Landing, as well as the underground injection control permit from the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division for the full 20 Mmcf/d of requested total acid gas capacity. The project will enable Kings Landing to handle elevated levels of H₂S and CO₂ and remains on schedule for in-service by year-end 2026.

The ECCC Pipeline is nearing construction completion, which will connect the western portion of Kinetik's system North to South between Eddy and Culberson counties. The project will commence in-service during the second quarter of 2026.

Kinetik continues to advance its strategy of pursuing scalable power solutions across its Delaware South position. The 40 MW behind-the-meter power generation project at Diamond Cryo is progressing with engineering, procurement, and permitting work well underway.

The Company executed an agreement with Pecos Power to connect its owned and operated intrabasin residue gas pipeline to the new 452 MW gas-fired Pecos Power Plant in Reeves County, Texas. This interconnection will be used as one of the primary sources of residue natural gas supply for the project. Pecos Power reached FID in March with commercial operations expected to commence in 2027, and the capital for the Kinetik pipeline connection will be fully reimbursed by Pecos Power.

Kinetik recently executed a series of commercial agreements that further enhance long‑term visibility across the system in Texas and New Mexico, several of which are for multi-stream services.

The Company also amended multiple legacy Durango gas gathering and processing ("G&P") agreements with a large existing customer in New Mexico. This amendment increases acreage under the existing agreement by 12,000 gross acres, up approximately 25% versus the original dedicated acreage in Eddy County from May 2024 and extends contract terms to 2039.

In total, agreements covering approximately 75% of legacy Durango gas processed volumes have been amended in the last four months, extending terms to the mid and late 2030s, providing downstream control of plant products, increasing margin and dedicated acreage, and adding sour gas-related services. These agreements are expected to increase annual Adjusted EBITDA¹ starting in 2026, which is reflected in guidance.

Kinetik secured additional Gulf Coast natural gas pricing exposure at attractive rates for the 2028 through 2030 period, building upon its downstream residue position and the continued successful execution of its commercial G&P strategy.

Additional information

Additional information follows, including a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow, and Net Debt (non-GAAP financial measures) to the GAAP measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures

Kinetik's financial information includes information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as well as non-GAAP financial information. It is management's intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance understanding of our consolidated financial information as prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow, Dividend Coverage Ratio, Net Debt and Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP measures. This non-GAAP information should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. See "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" elsewhere in this news release. This news release also includes certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial information. Reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measure are not available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various reconciling items that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, that have not yet occurred, are out of Kinetik's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, such reconciliation is excluded from this news release. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

(1)	Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income including noncontrolling interest adjusted for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on disposal of assets and debt extinguishment, the proportionate EBITDA from our EMI pipelines, share-based compensation expense, noncash increases and decreases related to commodity hedging activities, integration and transaction costs and extraordinary losses and unusual or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA provides a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income including non-controlling interest or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
(2)	Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted for the proportionate EBITDA from unconsolidated affiliates, returns on invested capital from unconsolidated affiliates, interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, unrealized gains or losses on interest rate swaps and maintenance capital expenditures. Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income including non-controlling interest or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that Distributable Cash Flow is a useful measure to compare cash generation performance from period to period and to compare the cash generation performance for specific periods to the amount of cash dividends we make.
(3)	Free Cash Flow is defined as Distributable Cash Flow adjusted for growth capital expenditures, investments in unconsolidated affiliates, returns of invested capital from unconsolidated affiliates and contributions in aid of construction. Free Cash flow should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income including non-controlling interest or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that Free Cash Flow is a useful performance measure to compare cash generation performance from period to period and to compare the cash generation performance for specific periods to the amount of cash dividends that we make.
(4)	Net Debt is defined as total short-term and long-term debt, excluding deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts, less cash and cash equivalents. Net Debt illustrates our total debt position less cash on hand that could be utilized to pay down debt at the balance sheet date. Net Debt should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of total long-term debt, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

(4)	Other segment items include certain other income items, share-based compensation, adjustments related to amortization of contract costs, commodity hedging unrealized gain or loss, integration costs, and other one-time costs or amortization.
(5)	Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss including noncontrolling interest adjusted for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on disposal of assets, the proportionate EBITDA from our EMI pipelines, equity income recorded using the equity method, share-based compensation expense, noncash increases and decreases related to commodity hedging activities, integration and transaction costs and extraordinary losses and unusual or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA provides a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income or loss including non-controlling interest or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
