Kinetik Holdings: Approaching The Buy Zone After A Pullback
Summary A pullback in Kinetik Holdings' stock has brought the company’s valuation back into the range of historical valuations for C-Corp midstream providers. A significant portion of growth projects is already in service to start the year, giving reasonable assurance that the company's 15% growth targets can be met. KNTK is pursuing an aggressive growth rate. The capital spending required to achieve this growth will cause the company to be slightly free cash flow negative in 2025. I rate KNTK as a SOFT BUY, with the acknowledgement that macro uncertainty may weigh on the stock as the price approaches the 200-day moving average.

Kinetik Holdings: Growth Prospects Are Now Fairly Priced (Rating Downgrade)
Summary Kinetik has produced a steady stream of organic growth projects as well as bolt-on acquisitions. However, the company now appears to be fairly valued. The company's assets are located on prime acreage in the Delaware Basin, which should help the company continue to grow total volumes. However, KNTK stock is set up for a dilution event in July following the issuance of 7.7 million shares tied to the Durango acquisition. With shares up nearly 100% in just one year's time, the risk of a sell-off by majority owners is now higher than before. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaSeeking Alpha • Nov 10
Kinetik Holdings: An Overvalued Rapidly Growing Midstream Idea
Summary Kinetik's stock price has surged into expensive territory. Higher stock prices incentivize conversion of privately held stock. Despite a 4% dividend increase and rapid earnings growth, the stock's current valuation appears stretched. There is a relatively large amount of Class C stock that needs to convert to publicly held Class A stock. The debt ratio is one of the lowest of all the midstream companies that I follow.

Kinetik Holdings: Upgrading To A Strong Buy Following Q2 Earnings
Summary The growth story of KNTK got a fresh update. Growth projects now include new contracts, margin expansions, and the possibility of building another natural gas processing plant in the northern Delaware basin. The anticipated growth rate produces an attractive valuation with the potential for 25% share price growth coupled with a 7.3% yield. My target price is $51/share with a STRONG BUY rating.
