Wednesday, May 29, 5:54 PM Low interest rates have helped MLPs raise capital at a reasonable cost, enabling returns well above their cost of capital and supporting cash distribution growth, but Simmons analysts say investor interest should remain strong even as rates rise - though due diligence will be more important than ever. Darren Schuringa says it's crucial to measure an MLP’s coverage ratio rather than the actual money it pays out. 10 Comments [Energy]
Thursday, May 23, 5:40 PM Kinder Morgan says it could eventually simplify its complex gaggle of companies, even though "we like having the two MLPs out there to accelerate dropdowns," CFO Kimberly Dang says. The dropdowns will wrap up next year, and a combination would have to "make economic sense. If the economics don’t work... we have no issue running two MLPs. [It] is not a huge administrative burden.” 13 Comments [Energy]
Monday, May 13, 5:28 PM Kinder Morgan (KMI) and Kinder Morgan Partners (KMP) lift their 2013 financial projections, based mostly on projected contributions from the Copano acquisition. KMI now plans to declare dividends of $1.60/share for 2013, up from $1.57 expected; KMP plans to declare distributions of $5.33/unit, up from $5.28 expected. Kinder Morgan Management (KMR) will pay a $5.33/share distribution via additional shares. 28 Comments [Energy]
Tuesday, April 2, 8:41 AM With the natural gas sector showing an average dividend yield of 3.6% and a dividend growth rate of more than 10% vs. the S&P 500 dividend yield of 2.1% and dividend growth of ~5%, Deutsche Bank is bullish on the sector and expects more upside in 2013 and beyond. The firm's top buys: PAA, EPD, KMP, KMR, WES, ACMP. 1 Comment [Energy, Quick Ideas]
Monday, February 4, 10:28 AM Despite a strong start to the year, the MLP analysts at Credit Suisse forecast a continued MLP catch-up trade that could lead to significant outperformance by MLPs vs. the S&P 500. The firm's top names have strong exposure to what it sees as the coming oil boom: PAA, MMP, EEP, EPD, GEL, KMR, KMP and KMI, plus ETFs KYN and SRV. 5 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
Tuesday, December 4, 2012, 8:25 AM Kinder Morgan (KMI) announces preliminary 2013 projections, including expected dividends of $1.57/share, a 16% increase over its 2012 budget target. Kinder Morgan Partners (KMP) expects to declare cash distributions of $5.28/unit, a 6% increase over its 2012 budget target. Yesterday, KMI won court approval of a $110M settlement of investor lawsuits over its El Paso acquisition. Comment! [Energy]
Thursday, October 4, 2012, 4:53 PM MLPs as a group remain relatively undervalued and several names are attractively priced, Credit Suisse says, suggesting investors pursue a conservative posture of focusing on names with large asset footprints, diverse cash flows and limited direct commodity price exposure. The firm's favorites: PAA, MMP, EEP, EPD, GEL, KMR, KMP, KMI. 9 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 9:11 AM Underwriters fully exercise their option to buy additional shares of Kinder Morgan (KMI) from selling stockholders, bringing the total public offering to 66.7M shares priced at $34.51 each. Separately, Kinder Morgan Management (KMR) underwriters also exercise in full their option to buy more than 1.3M common shares at $71.85 each in connection with its recent 8.8M-share public offering. 3 Comments [Energy]
Thursday, July 19, 2012, 5:58 PM Credit Suisse recommends four MLPs best equipped to withstand a sharp pullback should the economic situation in Europe spiral out of control: Enterprise Products Partners (EPD), Kinder Morgan Management (KMR), Plains All American Pipeline (PAA), Oneok Partners (OKS). 1 Comment [Energy, Quick Ideas]
Friday, June 15, 2012, 9:09 AM Kinder Morgan (KMI) is reinstated with a Buy rating and a $37 price target by Goldman Sachs, which cities KMI's "strong general partner cash flow outlook, which should drive double-digit dividend growth from a higher proportion of stable, fee-based natural gas pipeline assets." The firm also reinstates KMP, KMR and EPB at Neutral with respective price targets of $86, $83 and $38. 3 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
Sunday, April 15, 2012, 5:07 AM Kinder Morgan President C. Park Shaper doesn't understand why Kinder Morgan Management (KMR) trades at a discount to Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMP), he told Seeking Alpha in an interview. "KMR shares are pari passu with KMP units," and have the "added advantage of allowing you to control when you pay your taxes." 1 Comment [Energy]
Wednesday, July 16, 2008, 1:56 AM Notable earnings after Wednesday's close: AF, CAVM, CNB, CCK, DTLK, EBAY, EXPO, HOKU, KMR, PLCM, SABA, TCBI, TBI, YUM. Comment!
