  • Continued focus on sustainable operations; first major U.S. midstream company to join the Oil & Gas Methane Partnership (OGMP) 2.0 methane performance initiative

CEO Perspective

Alan Armstrong, president and chief executive officer, made the following comments:

“Williams experienced record natural gas gathering volumes and contracted capacity in the first quarter, driving higher earnings across all four core business segments compared to first quarter 2022, with Adjusted EBITDA up nearly 20 percent. These results proved without question that our core business is performing as designed amid volatile price cycles. Our fee-based revenues continued to grow even without including the strong contributions from recent acquisitions. We saw very high gas prices at Opal in the first quarter, which caused negative NGL margins, but the integration of our Sequent marketing business turned this into a positive outcome for Williams, demonstrating our ability to capitalize on volatility.

“We remain squarely focused on our natural gas-focused strategy as we execute a robust list of fully contracted projects within our footprint that will contribute to our long-term adjusted EBITDA growth rate target of 5 to 7 percent. Regional Energy Access, which we expect to start bringing into service ahead of schedule this year, will unlock more of our Northeast gas gathering and processing volumes to serve nearby markets. In addition, the integration of our recent MountainWest acquisition bolsters our position in the Rockies with stable, FERC-regulated natural gas transmission and storage infrastructure.”

Armstrong added, “Williams is making strides to serve both domestic and global energy demand in a lower-carbon and sustainable manner. We were the first major U.S. midstream company to join OGMP 2.0, and we were among the first to invest in and deploy satellite technology to monitor the methane performance of our assets as part of our growing NextGen Gas strategy. It’s certainly an exciting time to be at Williams, and I’m proud of all that our employees are doing across the enterprise to make Williams a leader in the responsible energy market.”

(4) 1Q 2023 capital excludes $1.06 billion acquisition of MountainWest Pipeline Holding company, which closed February 14, 2023.

GAAP Measures

First-quarter 2023 net income increased by $547 million compared to the prior year reflecting a favorable change of $450 million in net unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives, the benefit of higher service revenues driven by contributions from recent acquisitions and increased volumes at Ohio Valley Midstream, as well as higher commodity marketing margins. These improvements were partially offset by higher operating and administrative expenses, including the impact from recent acquisitions. The tax provision increased primarily due to higher pretax income.

Cash flow from operations for the first quarter of 2023 increased compared to 2022 primarily due to higher operating results exclusive of non-cash items and favorable net changes in working capital.

Non-GAAP Measures

First-quarter 2023 Adjusted EBITDA increased by $284 million over the prior year, driven by the previously described benefits from service revenues and commodity marketing margins, partially offset by higher operating and administrative expenses.

First-quarter 2023 Adjusted Net Income improved by $185 million over the prior year, driven by the previously described impacts to net income, adjusted primarily to remove the effects of net unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives and amortization of certain assets from the Sequent acquisition.

First-quarter 2023 Available Funds From Operations (AFFO) increased by $255 million compared to the prior year primarily due to higher operating results exclusive of non-cash items.

Note: Williams uses Modified EBITDA for its segment reporting. Definitions of Modified EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and schedules reconciling to net income are included in this news release.

Transmission & Gulf of Mexico

First-quarter 2023 Modified and Adjusted EBITDA improved compared to the prior year driven by the MountainWest and NorTex Midstream acquisitions. Modified EBITDA for 2023 was further impacted by one-time MountainWest acquisition costs, which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Northeast G&P

First-quarter 2023 Modified and Adjusted EBITDA increased over the prior year driven by increased volumes at Ohio Valley Midstream, Marcellus South and Cardinal.

West

First-quarter 2023 Modified and Adjusted EBITDA increased compared to the prior year benefiting from realized gains on natural gas hedges and contributions from Trace Midstream acquired in April 2022, partially offset by lower processing margins due to a short-term gas price spike at Opal and severe weather impacts. Modified EBITDA for 2023 was also impacted by a favorable contract settlement, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Gas & NGL Marketing Services

First-quarter 2023 Modified EBITDA improved from the prior year primarily reflecting higher commodity marketing margins and a $390 million net favorable change in unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Other

First-quarter 2023 Modified EBITDA improved compared to the prior year primarily reflecting a $60 million net favorable change in unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. These results were partially impacted by severe weather.

2023 Financial Guidance

The company continues to expect 2023 Adjusted EBITDA between $6.4 billion and $6.8 billion. The company expects 2023 growth capex between $1.6 billion to $1.9 billion due to the acceleration of Transco’s Regional Energy Access project. Importantly, Williams anticipates a leverage ratio midpoint of 3.65x, which will allow it to retain financial flexibility. The dividend was increased by 5.3% on an annualized basis to $1.79 in 2023 from $1.70 in 2022.
