Research Alert: Wmb: A Q1 Beat, But High Growth Capex Spending
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Williams delivered solid Q1 results, with adjusted EPS of $0.73 beating estimates of $0.62 and rising 22% Y/Y. Adjusted EBITDA increased 13% to $2.25B due to Transco expansion projects, higher Gulf volumes from new developments, and elevated storage revenues during winter storms. The natural gas-focused midstream operator benefits from strategic positioning in LNG infrastructure and data center demand, securing major customer agreements including the $2.3B Neo power project and Atlas data center infrastructure. Management raised 2026 growth capex guidance to $7.0B-$7.6B from prior $6.1B-$6.7B range, while maintaining 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $8.05B-$8.35B with expectations in the upper half. We believe the aggressive growth strategy positions WMB well for secular demand trends, though elevated capex of $1.64B in Q1 versus $0.67B prior year reflects the substantial investment required for expansion initiatives across Transco and data center projects.
Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of Generac Holdings Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Generac reported strong Q1 results with net sales rising 12% Y/Y to $1.06B, driven by a 28% surge in its Commercial & Industrial segment, fueled by accelerating data center demand, while Residential sales grew just 1% as higher pricing on home standby generators was offset by lower volumes. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded significantly to 18.3% from 15.9%, reflecting strong operating leverage on higher C&I volumes and substantial cost savings within the reorganized Residential business. We view the robust C&I momentum and expanding backlog as key catalysts supporting our positive investment thesis. Management raised full-year guidance, buoyed by the Q1 outperformance and rapidly growing C&I backlog. We lift our 12-month target to $275 from $235, valuing shares at 25.7x our revised 2027 EPS outlook of $10.70 (up from $10.42), near GNRC's five-year forward multiple average but below electrical equipment peers given earnings volatility. We also raise our 2026 EPS forecast to $8.56 from $8.10.
