What the filing says
Western Midstream Partners (NYSE: WES) reported Q2 2026 net income of $394.9M and record Adjusted EBITDA of $736.5M (19% YoY growth). Completed Brazos Delaware acquisition in mid-June for ~$819M, adding 460 MMcf/d gas processing capacity. Raised full-year 2026 guidance: Adjusted EBITDA midpoint to $2.85B (+$250M/+10%), Distributable Cash Flow midpoint to $2.15B (+$200M/+10%), Free Cash Flow midpoint to $1.2B (+$200M/+20%). Also executed two new Powder River Basin long-term gathering agreements covering ~270,000 acres. Maintained quarterly distribution at $0.93/unit ($3.72 annualized).
Why this rating
Acquisition adds ~6% to midstream capacity; guidance raise of 10-20% is material but reflects H1 beat and elevated commodity prices (potentially cyclical). Modest deal relative to $8.3B market cap; organic growth visible but commodity-dependent.
