HOUSTON & MIDLAND, Texas – Kinetik Holdings Inc. (NYSE: KNTK), a midstream energy company, announced the pricing of a $250 million sustainability-linked senior notes offering by its subsidiary, Kinetik Holdings LP. The notes, due December 15, 2028, were priced at 101.25% of par with an interest rate of 6.625% per annum, payable semi-annually.
The company plans to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repaying part of the outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility. With a current ratio of 0.7, InvestingPro data indicates that Kinetik’s short-term obligations exceed its liquid assets, making this refinancing particularly significant. The offering, expected to close on March 19, 2025, is an addition to the $800 million aggregate principal amount of similar notes issued previously under the same indenture.
These notes are linked to Kinetik’s sustainability performance targets outlined in their Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework, which has been evaluated by ISS ESG with a second party opinion. However, the new notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and are offered only to qualified institutional buyers and non-U.S. persons in compliance with applicable laws.
The company, primarily operating in the Delaware Basin, provides a range of services for natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, and water producers. Notable for investors, Kinetik offers a 6.04% dividend yield and has maintained a three-year dividend growth streak. According to InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis, the stock appears to be trading above its intrinsic value.
