MIDLAND, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ProPetro Holding Corp. (NYSE: PUMP) (“ProPetro”) today announced that its PROPWR business unit has entered into new contracts with a subsidiary of Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) (“Targa”), a large energy infrastructure company, for which PROPWR will commit approximately 230 megawatts (“MW”) of power generation capacity. With the addition of these contracts, total capacity committed under contract for PROPWR now stands at approximately 510 MW, which also reflects previously announced oil and gas power capacity that is no longer committed under contract. This recontracting allows PROPWR to redeploy the associated capacity to Targa and to make additional megawatts available for potential data center deployments in 2027 and beyond.

These long-term contracts will provide behind-the-meter power to support Targa’s continued investment in natural gas processing infrastructure in the Permian Basin, with full deployment expected in early 2028.

Importantly, this infrastructure supports continued growth in U.S. natural gas production needed to serve strong and growing demand for natural gas, including:

Growing liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) export demand along the U.S. Gulf Coast; Increasing investment in power generation to serve the rapid buildout of data center and artificial intelligence infrastructure; and Additional grid-connected gas generation resources needed to meet load growth and improve reliability across U.S. power markets. Sam Sledge, Chief Executive Officer of ProPetro, commented, “We are thrilled to establish a new long-term relationship with Targa, one of the premier midstream operators in the country. These contracts reflect the significant and growing demand for reliable, behind-the-meter power across the energy value chain, and the essential role midstream infrastructure plays in moving Permian gas to various end markets. Targa is a large, investment-grade counterparty, and these awards highlight PROPWR’s ability to deliver dependable power at scale. We view this as the start of a durable partnership and expect to be a reliable power provider to Targa for many years to come as they continue to expand their infrastructure footprint.”

About ProPetro

It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors. Luckily, Zacks Premium offers several different ways to do both.

The research service features daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, all of which will help you become a smarter, more confident investor.

Zacks Premium also includes the Zacks Style Scores.

What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores is a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on three popular investing types, and were developed as complementary indicators for the Zacks Rank. This combination helps investors choose securities with the highest chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.

Based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics, each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F. The better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform; an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on.

The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:

Value ScoreFinding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value, are what value investors like to focus on. So, the Value Style Score takes into account ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and a host of other multiples to highlight the most attractive and discounted stocks.

Growth ScoreWhile good value is important, growth investors are more focused on a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score takes projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow into account to uncover stocks that will see long-term, sustainable growth.

Momentum ScoreMomentum investors, who live by the saying "the trend is your friend," are most interested in taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Utilizing one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, among other factors, the Momentum Style Score can help determine favorable times to buy high-momentum stocks.

VGM ScoreIf you want a combination of all three Style Scores, then the VGM Score will be your friend. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, helping you find the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum. It's also one of the best indicators to use with the Zacks Rank.

How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank A proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank utilizes the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings outlook, to help investors create a successful portfolio.

It's highly successful, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.8% average annual return since 1988. That's more than double the S&P 500. But because of the large number of stocks we rate, there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.

This totals more than 800 top-rated stocks, and it can be overwhelming to try and pick the best stocks for you and your portfolio.

That's where the Style Scores come in.

To have the best chance of big returns, you'll want to always consider stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B, which will give you the highest probability of success. If you're looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, it's important they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.

Since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank, the direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy.

Here's an example: a stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, even one with Style Scores of A and B, still has a downward-trending earnings outlook, and a bigger chance its share price will decrease too.

Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

Targa Resources Corp (TRGP) announced a major infrastructure expansion after securing long-term, fee-based agreements with ExxonMobil (XOM) across the Permian Delaware and Midland basins. The deal significantly bolsters Targa's processing and takeaway capabilities while offering midstream investors enhanced cash-flow visibility.

Targa Resources secures a transformative 20-year midstream agreement with ExxonMobil, anchoring long-term growth and volume certainty. TRGP will invest in three new processing plants, a 70-mile pipeline, and potentially five additional plants, extending its aggressive growth trajectory. The XOM partnership delays the free cash flow inflection beyond 2028, but rising base EBITDA and project completions maintain positive FCF trends.

Key Takeaways Targa Resources secures 20-year Permian acreage and NGL dedications with ExxonMobil through 2046.Three Delaware plants will add about 825 MMcf/d of processing capacity, with startup planned in 1H 2028.TRGP lifts 2026 growth capital to about $5 billion, including new plants, field spending and Bull Run II. Targa Resources Corp. (TRGP - Free Report) has announced a major expansion of its strategic relationship with ExxonMobil (XOM - Free Report) through new long-term, integrated midstream agreements covering significant acreage in the Permian Basin. The arrangements strengthen Targa’s presence across the Permian Delaware and Midland basins while broadening the range of services it will provide to ExxonMobil subsidiaries.

The new arrangements cover fee-based natural gas gathering and processing (G&P), as well as downstream services. They include 20-year acreage dedications that extend through 2046, giving Targa a long-term opportunity to support ExxonMobil’s production growth. Along with the agreements, Targa announced three new processing plants, additional natural gas takeaway infrastructure and a higher 2026 growth capital outlook.

TRGP Expands ExxonMobil Relationship in the PermianThe new agreements give Targa access to significant additional acreage dedicated to its midstream services. In the Permian Delaware, the arrangements cover natural gas gathering, processing, treating, NGL transportation and fractionation.

These commitments extend through 2046, creating a long-term framework for Targa to provide integrated services as ExxonMobil develops its dedicated acreage.

The Delaware agreements also include 20-year NGL dedications to Targa’s logistics and transportation (L&T) systems. This connects production handled through Targa’s gathering and processing network with its broader NGL infrastructure.

In the Permian Midland, the agreements add new acreage dedications and extend Targa’s existing fee-floor gathering and processing arrangements through 2046. The Midland agreements also include NGL dedications to Targa’s L&T systems.

Together, the arrangements expand Targa’s relationship with ExxonMobil across two of the Permian Basin’s most important operating areas.

New Permian Delaware Processing Plants to Add 825 MMcf/dTo support expected production growth, Targa has announced three new natural gas processing plants in the Permian Delaware: Wrangler, Ranger and Ranger II.

The three facilities are expected to provide approximately 825 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of aggregate processing capacity. Targa expects the plants to be placed into service during the first half of 2028.

The new facilities will expand Targa’s ability to process natural gas associated with growing production in the Delaware. Processing capacity is an important component of the midstream system because natural gas gathered from producing properties must be treated and processed before it can move into downstream markets.

Targa is also evaluating up to five additional processing plants for the Delaware to accommodate production growth beyond the currently announced projects. The potential additions demonstrate that the company is planning capacity around longer-term customer requirements rather than limiting its expansion to the facilities already under development.

Bull Run II Pipeline Will Provide Additional Gas TakeawayTarga is pairing the new processing plants with additional transportation infrastructure. The company has announced Bull Run II, an approximately 70-mile natural gas pipeline that will become part of its Bull Run residue system in the Permian Delaware.

The pipeline is expected to transport natural gas from the newly announced processing facilities to Waha, providing a dedicated takeaway route for residue gas.

Bull Run II is expected to begin operations during the first half of 2028 and will be supported by take-or-pay commitments. Its planned timing corresponds with the expected startup of Wrangler, Ranger and Ranger II.

The project is important because additional processing capacity needs corresponding takeaway infrastructure. By developing the processing plants and pipeline as part of the same expansion program, Targa can create a more complete midstream solution for expected Delaware production.

Targa Raises 2026 Growth Capital Estimate to $5 BillionThe newly announced projects are reflected in TRGP’s updated capital expectations. The company now estimates fiscal 2026 growth capital at approximately $5 billion.

The revised estimate includes investment in the three new Delaware processing plants, incremental field capital and Bull Run II.

The increase represents a substantial infrastructure commitment, but it is directly associated with expected customer growth and the requirements created by the new commercial agreements. Targa expects its plants, field infrastructure and downstream projects currently underway to play an important role in handling future production.

The capital program also provides an indication of the scale of development anticipated across Targa’s Permian operations. Rather than relying solely on existing capacity, the company is adding targeted infrastructure where future volumes are expected to require it.

NGL Transportation and Fractionation Add Downstream OpportunitiesThe ExxonMobil agreements extend beyond natural gas gathering and processing. The inclusion of NGL transportation and fractionation services gives Targa additional opportunities to benefit from growing liquids volumes generated by Permian production.

The 20-year NGL dedications to Targa’s L&T systems across the Delaware and Midland create a durable connection between upstream production and its downstream network.

Targa is also evaluating the timing of an additional fractionation train in Mont Belvieu. The company has not established a specific operating date for the potential expansion, but the evaluation reflects anticipated future requirements for additional NGL processing capacity.

Mont Belvieu is a major center for NGL infrastructure, making additional fractionation capacity strategically relevant as Permian production and associated liquids volumes increase.

Long-Term Commercial Visibility for TRGPOne of the most significant elements of the announcement is the duration of the new commercial arrangements. The 20-year commitments extend through 2046, providing Targa with a lengthy contractual horizon tied to ExxonMobil’s Permian acreage.

The fee-based structure also supports the company’s midstream business model by linking revenue opportunities to contracted services. Targa can therefore plan infrastructure investments around customer commitments and anticipated production requirements.

The agreements further strengthen Targa’s integrated position. Gathering and processing assets provide the connection to the wellhead, while treating, NGL transportation, fractionation and residue gas takeaway extend the company’s involvement across the broader midstream chain.

This combination gives Targa the ability to serve multiple infrastructure requirements within a single customer relationship.

Targa’s Permian Expansion Supports Its Growth StrategyTarga expects the new commercial agreements to contribute to its overall growth rate over the medium and long term. The company plans to utilize its existing infrastructure alongside projects already underway and the newly announced developments.

Chief executive officer Matt Meloy emphasized Targa’s execution capabilities, operational reliability and established Permian footprint when discussing the expanded relationship with ExxonMobil. The company believes these strengths have helped establish it as a long-term infrastructure partner for producer customers.

The latest announcement therefore brings together commercial expansion and a defined infrastructure program. New acreage dedications provide additional volumes, while the processing plants and Bull Run II pipeline are designed to support those volumes as production develops.

What the ExxonMobil Deal Means for TRGPThe expanded ExxonMobil relationship represents a significant development for Targa. The company has secured new long-term acreage commitments in the Delaware and Midland basins, expanded its range of services and identified infrastructure projects to accommodate anticipated production.

The 825 MMcf/d of new processing capacity, Bull Run II pipeline, potential additional processing plants and evaluation of future Mont Belvieu fractionation capacity collectively point to continued investment in the Permian.

With its 2026 growth capital estimate now at approximately $5 billion, Targa is committing substantial resources to support this development. The combination of long-term contracts, new acreage and targeted infrastructure gives the company greater visibility into future midstream activity while deepening its relationship with one of the largest energy producers operating in the Permian Basin.

(NYSE: TRGP) (“Targa” or the “Company”) today announced the execution of new long-term, integrated midstream agreements with subsidiaries of ExxonMobil, further strengthening the parties’ strategic relationship across the Permian Basin.

Targa has entered into long-term fee-based agreements with ExxonMobil for integrated natural gas gathering and processing (“G&P”) and downstream services in the Permian Basin. These agreements meaningfully add to and extend our strategic relationship with ExxonMobil with significant acreage dedications in the Delaware and Midland basins under 20-year agreements.

In the Permian Delaware our agreements with ExxonMobil add significant new acreage dedications for integrated fee-based services, including gathering, processing, treating, NGL transportation, and fractionation through 2046. In the Permian Midland, our agreements add new acreage dedications and extend our existing fee-floor gathering and processing agreements through 2046. The agreements in both the Delaware and Midland include 20-year NGL dedications to Targa’s logistics and transportation (“L&T”) systems.

The new commercial agreements will add substantial long-term volume growth across Targa’s integrated wellhead to water position, utilizing our existing infrastructure, projects currently underway, and planned future system expansions. Targa’s commercial success is a result of our proven execution capabilities, expansive integrated footprint and strong operational reliability. We expect these agreements will add to Targa’s overall growth rate over the medium and long term.

“We are excited to meaningfully expand our strategic relationship with ExxonMobil,” said Matt Meloy, Targa’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our track record has positioned us as an attractive partner, and a provider of exceptional execution and reliability for our producer customers. As the largest gatherer and processor in the Permian, we continue to invest across our footprint and our execution allows Targa the unmatched ability to handle our customers’ long-term production growth plans. We expect this expansion of our strategic relationship with ExxonMobil to meaningfully add to Targa’s strong growth rate well into the next decade and bolster our outlook for durable and growing adjusted free cash flow over the long term.”

Growth Project Update and 2026 Capital Outlook

To accommodate our customers’ continued growth plans and these new commercial agreements, Targa announced three new natural gas processing plants in the Permian Delaware, the Wrangler, Ranger and Ranger II plants, with aggregate capacity of ~825 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d). The three new plant additions are expected to be in service in the first half of 2028 and we are evaluating up to five additional new processing plants to accommodate expected production growth in the area over the longer term. Targa is also evaluating the timing of an additional fractionation train in Mont Belvieu.

Targa also announced a new ~70-mile natural gas pipeline as part of our Bull Run residue system in the Permian Delaware (“Bull Run II”). The pipeline will provide natural gas takeaway from the new plant additions announced today to Waha and will be supported by take or pay commitments. Bull Run II is expected to begin operations in the first half of 2028.

We are updating our estimate for FY26 growth capital to ~$5.0B which incorporates expected investment in the new Delaware processing plants announced today, incremental associated field capital, and the Bull Run II natural gas pipeline. The new commercial success announced today adds long-term visibility to our growth, and we expect our plant, field and downstream infrastructure currently underway will be much needed to accommodate planned volume growth.

Taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for new and old investors, and Zacks Premium offers many different ways to do both.

The research service features daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, all of which will help you become a smarter, more confident investor.

Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.

What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores, developed alongside the Zacks Rank, are complementary indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing methodologies; they also help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.

Based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics, each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F. The better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform; an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on.

The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:

Value ScoreValue investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and many other multiples, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.

Growth ScoreGrowth investors are more concerned with a stock's future prospects, and the overall financial health and strength of a company. Thus, the Growth Style Score analyzes characteristics like projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will see sustainable growth over time.

Momentum ScoreMomentum investors, who live by the saying "the trend is your friend," are most interested in taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Utilizing one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, among other factors, the Momentum Style Score can help determine favorable times to buy high-momentum stocks.

VGM ScoreIf you want a combination of all three Style Scores, then the VGM Score will be your friend. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, helping you find the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum. It's also one of the best indicators to use with the Zacks Rank.

How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank The Zacks Rank is a proprietary stock-rating model that harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings expectations, to help investors build a successful portfolio.

It's highly successful, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.94% average annual return since 1988. That's more than double the S&P 500. But because of the large number of stocks we rate, there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.

But it can feel overwhelming to pick the right stocks for you and your investing goals with over 800 top-rated stocks to choose from.

That's where the Style Scores come in.

To have the best chance of big returns, you'll want to always consider stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B, which will give you the highest probability of success. If you're looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, it's important they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.

The direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should always be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy, since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank.

For instance, a stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, even one that boasts Scores of A and B, still has a downward-trending earnings forecast, and a much greater likelihood its share price will decline as well.

Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

Targa Resources, Inc. (TRGP - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $3.54 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.83 per share. This compares to earnings of $2.87 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +25.09%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this company would post earnings of $2.55 per share when it actually produced earnings of $2.21, delivering a surprise of -13.33%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.

Targa Resources, which belongs to the Zacks Oil and Gas - Refining and Marketing - Master Limited Partnerships industry, posted revenues of $4.44 billion for the quarter ended June 2026, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 10.35%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $4.26 billion. The company has not been able to beat consensus revenue estimates over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Targa Resources shares have added about 41% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 12.8%.

What's Next for Targa Resources?While Targa Resources has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Targa Resources was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $2.79 on $4.93 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $10.83 on $19.4 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Oil and Gas - Refining and Marketing - Master Limited Partnerships is currently in the top 18% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

Borr Drilling (BORR - Free Report) , another stock in the broader Zacks Oils-Energy sector, has yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on August 11.

This oilfield services company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.11 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -178.6%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.

Borr Drilling's revenues are expected to be $249 million, down 7% from the year-ago quarter.

HOUSTON, Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) (“TRGP,” the “Company” or “Targa”) today reported second quarter 2026 results.

Second quarter 2026 net income attributable to Targa Resources Corp. was $765 million compared to $629 million for the second quarter of 2025. The Company reported adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash items (“adjusted EBITDA”)(1) of $1,603 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $1,163 million for the second quarter of 2025.

Highlights

Record adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of $1.6 billion, an increase of 38% year-over-year and a 14% increase compared to the first quarterRecord Permian inlet, NGL transportation, fractionation, and LPG export volumes during the second quarterCommenced operations of our Train 11 fractionator and Delaware Express NGL Pipeline expansion during the second quarterCommenced operations of our new East Driver processing plant in Permian Midland late in the second quarter, ahead of scheduleEstimate full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA to be towards the top end of $5.7 billion to $5.9 billion rangeContinue to estimate 2026 net growth capital expenditures of approximately $4.5 billion On July 16, 2026, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.25 per common share, or $5.00 per common share on an annualized basis, for the second quarter of 2026. This dividend represents a 25 percent increase over the common dividend declared with respect to the second quarter of 2025. Total cash dividends of approximately $268 million will be paid on August 14, 2026 on all outstanding shares of common stock to holders of record as of the close of business on July 31, 2026.

During the second quarter of 2026, Targa repurchased 308,102 shares of its common stock at a weighted average per share price of $259.93 for a total net cost of $80 million. As of June 30, 2026, there was $1,239 million remaining under the Company’s share repurchase programs.

Second Quarter 2026 - Sequential Quarter over Quarter Commentary

Targa reported record second quarter adjusted EBITDA of $1,603 million, representing a 14 percent increase compared to the first quarter of 2026. The sequential increase was driven by higher marketing margin in our Logistics and Transportation (“L&T”) segment, record Permian volumes in our Gathering and Processing (“G&P”) segment, and record NGL transportation, fractionation, and LPG export volumes in our L&T segment.

In our G&P segment, higher sequential adjusted operating margin was driven by record Permian natural gas inlet volumes, partially offset by lower natural gas prices. Permian inlet volumes increased more than 450 million cubic feet per day (“MMcf/d”) despite temporary curtailments by certain producer customers in response to negative Waha natural gas prices in the second quarter.

In our L&T segment, higher sequential adjusted operating margin was driven by higher marketing margin, and record NGL pipeline transportation, fractionation, and LPG export volumes. Marketing margin increased due to greater optimization opportunities. NGL pipeline transportation and fractionation volumes benefited from higher supply volumes primarily from our Permian G&P systems and the addition of Train 11 early in the second quarter of 2026. LPG export margin increased due to higher volumes and fees.

Capitalization, Financing and Liquidity

The Company’s total consolidated debt as of June 30, 2026 was $19,578 million, net of $128 million of debt issuance costs and $39 million of unamortized discount, with $17,900 million of outstanding senior unsecured notes, $600 million outstanding under our Commercial Paper Program, $451 million outstanding under our accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization Facility”), and $794 million of finance lease liabilities.

Total consolidated liquidity as of June 30, 2026 was approximately $3.2 billion, including $2.9 billion available under the TRGP Revolver, $149 million under the Securitization Facility and $132 million of cash.

In July 2026, Targa amended the Securitization Facility to, among other things, extend the facility termination date to July 30, 2027 and increase borrowing capacity to up to $800 million.

Growth Projects Update

In our G&P segment, we commenced operations of our new East Driver plant in the Permian Midland late in the second quarter, ahead of schedule. Construction remains underway on our Copperhead, Yeti, Yeti II, Roadrunner III, and Copperhead II plants in Permian Delaware, and our G&P projects remain on track.

In our L&T segment, we commenced operations of our Train 11 fractionator in Mont Belvieu, TX and our Delaware Express NGL Pipeline expansion in the second quarter. Construction continues on our Train 12 and Train 13 fractionators in Mont Belvieu, our Speedway NGL Pipeline, our GPMT LPG Export Expansion, and our Bull Run, Buffalo Run and Forza intra-basin residue gas pipeline projects. Our L&T projects remain on track.

2026 Outlook

Given the strength of Targa’s performance through the first two quarters of the year, Targa now estimates full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA to be towards the top end of our $5.7 billion to $5.9 billion range. The higher outlook for full year 2026 is driven by the realization of strong marketing and optimization margin particularly in the first and second quarters of the year, and continued strength of volume growth of our integrated assets across the full year.

We continue to estimate net growth capital expenditures to be approximately $4.5 billion, and our estimate for 2026 net maintenance capital expenditures remains unchanged at approximately $250 million.

An earnings supplement presentation and updated investor presentation are available under Events and Presentations in the Investors section of our website at www.targaresources.com/investors/events.

We will host a conference call for the investment community at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time (10:00 a.m. Central time) on August 6, 2026 to discuss second quarter results.

Commodity sales were relatively flat due to lower natural gas prices ($784.8 million) and the unfavorable impact of hedges ($291.6 million), partially offset by higher NGL and condensate prices ($597.8 million) and higher NGL, natural gas and condensate volumes ($435.2 million).

The increase in fees from midstream services was primarily due to higher gas gathering and processing fees, higher transportation and fractionation fees, and higher export volumes.

The decrease in product purchases and fuel reflected lower natural gas prices, partially offset by higher NGL prices, and higher NGL and natural gas volumes.

The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher labor and maintenance costs in part due to system expansions, and the acquisition of certain assets in the Permian Basin, partially offset by lower compressor rental costs.

See “—Review of Segment Performance—” for additional information on a segment basis.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to the acquisition of certain assets in the Permian Basin, higher amortization of right-of-use assets for finance leases, and the impact of system expansions on the Company’s asset base.

The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits.

The increase in other operating (income) expense was primarily due to lower asset abandonment costs.

The increase in income tax (expense) benefit was primarily due to the increase in pre-tax book income.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2025

The decrease in commodity sales reflected lower natural gas and NGL prices ($1,309.2 million) and the unfavorable impact of hedges ($244.1 million), partially offset by higher NGL, natural gas and condensate volumes ($899.6 million) and higher condensate prices ($70.5 million).

The increase in fees from midstream services was primarily due to higher gas gathering and processing fees, higher transportation and fractionation fees, and higher export volumes.

The decrease in product purchases and fuel reflected lower natural gas and NGL prices, partially offset by higher NGL and natural gas volumes.

The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher labor and maintenance costs, and taxes in part due to system expansions, partially offset by lower compressor rental costs.

See “—Review of Segment Performance—” for additional information on a segment basis.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to the acquisition of certain assets in the Permian Basin, higher amortization of right-of-use assets for finance leases, and the impact of system expansions on the Company’s asset base.

The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits.

The increase in other operating (income) expense was primarily due to recognition of Section 45Q tax credits earned through the Company’s carbon capture and sequestration activities, and lower asset abandonment costs.

The increase in interest expense, net, was primarily due to higher borrowings, partially offset by an increase in capitalized interest.

The decrease in other, net, was primarily due to the premium paid on the redemption of all of the Partnership’s 6.875% Notes due 2029.

The increase in income tax (expense) benefit was primarily due to the increase in pre-tax book income.

The premium on repurchase of noncontrolling interests, net of tax was due to the Badlands Transaction in the first quarter of 2025.

Review of Segment Performance

The following discussion of segment performance includes inter-segment activities. The Company views segment operating margin and adjusted operating margin as important performance measures of the core profitability of its operations. These measures are key components of internal financial reporting and are reviewed for consistency and trend analysis. For a discussion of adjusted operating margin, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures ― Adjusted Operating Margin.” Segment operating financial results and operating statistics include the effects of intersegment transactions. These intersegment transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated presentation.

The Company operates in two primary segments: (i) Gathering and Processing; and (ii) Logistics and Transportation.

Gathering and Processing Segment

The Gathering and Processing segment includes assets used in the gathering and/or purchase and sale of natural gas produced from oil and gas wells, removing impurities and processing this raw natural gas into merchantable natural gas by extracting NGLs; and assets used for the gathering and terminaling and/or purchase and sale of crude oil. The Gathering and Processing segment’s assets are located in the Permian Basin of West Texas and Southeast New Mexico (including the Midland, Central and Delaware Basins); the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas; the Barnett Shale in North Texas; the Anadarko, Ardmore, and Arkoma Basins in Oklahoma (including the SCOOP and STACK) and South Central Kansas; the Williston Basin in North Dakota (including the Bakken and Three Forks plays); and the onshore and near offshore regions of the Louisiana Gulf Coast.

The following table provides summary data regarding results of operations of this segment for the periods indicated:

Operating results for the WestTX undivided interest assets are presented on a pro-rata net basis in the Company’s reported financials.(5)Operations include facilities that are not wholly owned by the Company.(6)Badlands natural gas inlet represents the total wellhead volume and includes the Targa volumes processed at the Little Missouri 4 plant.(7)Average realized prices, net of fees, include the effect of realized commodity hedge gain/loss attributable to the Company’s equity volumes. The price is calculated using total commodity sales plus the hedge gain/loss as the numerator and total sales volume as the denominator, net of fees. Negative realized natural gas prices during the second quarter of 2026 were a result of an extended period of negative Waha prices due to significant egress constraint in the Permian Basin.   The following table presents the realized commodity hedge gain (loss) attributable to the Company’s equity volumes that are included in the adjusted operating margin of the Gathering and Processing segment:

The increase in adjusted operating margin was primarily due to higher natural gas inlet volumes in the Permian which drove higher fee-based margin, partially offset by lower natural gas prices. The increase in natural gas inlet volumes in the Permian was attributable to the addition of the Pembrook II plant during the third quarter of 2025, the Bull Moose II plant during the fourth quarter of 2025, the Falcon II plant during the first quarter of 2026, the East Pembrook plant during the second quarter of 2026, continued strong producer activity and the acquisition of certain assets in the Permian Basin during the first quarter of 2026.

The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher volumes resulting from multiple plant additions and the acquisition of certain assets in the Permian Basin during the first quarter of 2026.

The increase in adjusted operating margin was due to higher marketing margin, higher pipeline transportation and fractionation margin and higher LPG export margin. Marketing margin increased due to greater optimization opportunities. Pipeline transportation and fractionation volumes benefited from higher supply volumes primarily from our Permian Gathering and Processing systems and the addition of Train 11 early in the second quarter of 2026. LPG export margin increased due to higher volumes and fees.

The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits including amounts related to system expansions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted EBITDA, adjusted cash flow from operations, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted operating margin (segment). The following tables provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.

The Company utilizes non-GAAP measures to analyze the Company’s performance. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted cash flow from operations, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted operating margin (segment) are non-GAAP measures. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to these non-GAAP measures are income (loss) from operations, Net income (loss) attributable to Targa Resources Corp. and segment operating margin. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP measures and have important limitations as analytical tools. Investors should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because the Company’s non-GAAP measures exclude some, but not all, items that affect income and segment operating margin, and are defined differently by different companies within the Company’s industry, the Company’s definitions may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. Management compensates for the limitations of the Company’s non-GAAP measures as analytical tools by reviewing the comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures and incorporating these insights into the Company’s decision-making processes.

Adjusted Operating Margin

The Company defines adjusted operating margin for the Company’s segments as revenues less product purchases and fuel. It is impacted by volumes and commodity prices as well as by the Company’s contract mix and commodity hedging program.

Gathering and Processing adjusted operating margin consists primarily of:

service fees related to natural gas and crude oil gathering, treating and processing; andrevenues from the sale of natural gas, condensate, crude oil and NGLs less producer settlements, fuel and transport and the Company’s equity volume hedge settlements. Logistics and Transportation adjusted operating margin consists primarily of:

service fees (including the pass-through of energy costs included in certain fee rates);system product gains and losses; andNGL and natural gas sales, less NGL and natural gas purchases, fuel, third-party transportation costs and the net inventory change.
The adjusted operating margin impacts of mark-to-market hedge unrealized changes in fair value are reported in Other.

Adjusted operating margin for the Company’s segments provides useful information to investors because it is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of the Company’s financial statements, including investors and commercial banks, to assess:

the financial performance of the Company’s assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;the Company’s operating performance and return on capital as compared to other companies in the midstream energy sector, without regard to financing or capital structure; andthe viability of capital expenditure projects and acquisitions and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities.
Management reviews adjusted operating margin and operating margin for the Company’s segments monthly as a core internal management process. The Company believes that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating the Company’s operating results. The reconciliation of the Company’s adjusted operating margin to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is presented under “Review of Segment Performance.”

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as Net income (loss) attributable to Targa Resources Corp. before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other items that the Company believes should be adjusted consistent with the Company’s core operating performance. The adjusting items are detailed in the adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table and its footnotes. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by the Company and by external users of the Company’s financial statements such as investors, commercial banks and others to measure the ability of the Company’s assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support the Company’s indebtedness and pay dividends to the Company’s investors.

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations and Adjusted Free Cash Flow

The Company defines adjusted cash flow from operations as adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense on debt obligations and cash tax (expense) benefit. The Company defines adjusted free cash flow as adjusted cash flow from operations less maintenance capital expenditures and growth capital expenditures, net of any reimbursements of project costs and contributions from noncontrolling interests, and including contributions to investments in unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted cash flow from operations and adjusted free cash flow are performance measures used by the Company and by external users of the Company’s financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to assess the Company’s ability to generate cash earnings (after servicing the Company’s debt and funding capital expenditures) to be used for corporate purposes, such as payment of dividends, retirement of debt or redemption of other financing arrangements.

Over the past month, Targa Resources shares have recorded returns of +0.4% versus the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +1.7% change. Based on its Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), TRGP will likely exhibit a performance that aligns with the overall market in the upcoming period. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks here >>>> .

Wall Street expects a year-over-year decline in earnings on higher revenues when Targa Resources, Inc. (TRGP - Free Report) reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. While this widely-known consensus outlook is important in gauging the company's earnings picture, a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates.

The stock might move higher if these key numbers top expectations in the upcoming earnings report, which is expected to be released on August 6. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.

While management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call will mostly determine the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations, it's worth having a handicapping insight into the odds of a positive EPS surprise.

Zacks Consensus EstimateThis company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $2.71 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -5.6%.

Revenues are expected to be $4.9 billion, up 15.1% from the year-ago quarter.

Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.46% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.

Investors should keep in mind that the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts may not always get reflected in the aggregate change.

Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise

Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. This insight is at the core of our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction).

The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.

Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.

A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.

Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).

How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for Targa Resources?For Targa Resources, the Most Accurate Estimate is higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bullish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +2.88%.

On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #3.

So, this combination indicates that Targa Resources will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate.

Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?Analysts often consider to what extent a company has been able to match consensus estimates in the past while calculating their estimates for its future earnings. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.

For the last reported quarter, it was expected that Targa Resources would post earnings of $2.55 per share when it actually produced earnings of $2.21, delivering a surprise of -13.33%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates two times.

Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.

That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported.

Targa Resources appears a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.

Vzhledem k tomu, že technologický sektor čelí zvýšené volatilitě a investoři stále častěji zpochybňují vysoké valuace některých AI titulů, doporučují stratégové Morgan Stanley zaměřit se na kvalitní společnosti s robustním cash flow, silnými rozvahami a stabilní ziskovostí. Do konce roku nadále očekává růst amerických akcií, byť s odlišnými lídry, než jací dominovali dosavadní AI rally.

V úterý posílil index Dow Jones Industrial Average, zatímco Nasdaq Composite oslabil. ETF Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLK), které sleduje technologický sektor, kleslo na nejnižší úroveň od 7. května. Naopak rostly akcie ze zdravotnictví a finančního sektoru. Přesun investorů ke kvalitním společnostem představuje „klasickou přechodovou fázi uprostřed hospodářského cyklu, kdy ekonomika dozrává,“ uvedl hlavní americký akciový stratég Morgan Stanley Mike Wilson.

Krátkodobě nelze podle Wilsona vyloučit konsolidaci nebo i další pokles směrem k 7 000 bodům na indexu S&P 500, pokud by konflikt na Blízkém východě dále eskaloval nebo by Fed dnes nečekaně zvýšil sazby. Rotace směrem ke kvalitním titulům by však měla ve výsledku podpořit odolnost indexu i širší účast jednotlivých sektorů na růstu, byť s jinými lídry než doposud, domnívá se Wilson s tím, že hranice 7 000 bodů by měla být „ubráněna“ a do konce roku by mohl index vzrůst až k 8 000 bodům, cituje CNBC.

V současném prostředí Morgan Stanley preferuje společnosti s vysokým výnosem volného cash flow, nízkou kolísavostí zisku na akcii (EPS), silnými rozvahami a vysokými maržemi. Wilson a jeho tým proto vybrali kvalitní společnosti, na které má banka doporučení Overweight, u nichž mnohé z těchto firem vyplácejí dividendy. CNBC zveřejnila dividendové tituly, které tímto sítem prošly:

Ticker  Akcie Sektor Letošní výnos Dividendový výnos KO Coca-Cola Spotřeba 25,66% 2,41% CL Colgate-Palmolive Spotřeba 18,51% 2,26% SLB SLB Energetika 30,98% 2,35% TRGP Targa Resources Energetika 42,07% 1,91% LNC Lincoln National Finance -4,06% 4,21% GILD Gilead Sciences Zdravotnictví 9,92% 2,43% NOC Northrop Grumman Průmysl -3,57% 1,80% ROL Rollins Průmysl -35,20% 1,88% Coca Cola nabízí dividendový výnos 2,41 %. Včera vzrostly její akcie o více než 4 % po zveřejnění výsledků hospodaření za druhý kvartál, kdy tento nápojový gigant překonal očekávání trhu jak na úrovni tržeb, tak zisku a zároveň zvýšil celoroční výhled. Morgan Stanley na ni minulý měsíc potvrdila doporučení Overweight.

„Coca Cola zůstává naším nejatraktivnějším tipem. Nadprůměrný dlouhodobý růst organických tržeb podporuje několik pozitivních krátkodobých faktorů, včetně zrychlujícího růstu značky Fairlife v USA díky navyšování výrobních kapacit. Zároveň si Coca Cola udržuje silnou cenotvorbu ve srovnání s ostatními výrobci spotřebního zboží. Domníváme se, že její konkurenční výhoda vůči klíčovým rivalům, jako jsou PepsiCo a Keurig Dr Pepper, se dále zvyšuje,“ uvedl analytik Dara Mohsenian v komentáři z 10. června. Akcie Coca Coly od začátku roku vzrostly o 26 %.

Na seznam kvalitních dividendových titulů Morgan Stanley se dostala také společnost Colgate-Palmolive, která nabízí dividendový výnos 2,26 %. Výrobce produktů osobní hygieny a péče o domácnost zveřejní výsledky za druhé čtvrtletí v pátek. Morgan Stanley u něj v květnu potvrdila doporučení Overweight a podle analytika Dary Mohseniana se dlouhodobý výhled firmy zlepšuje. „I po solidním růstu akcií od začátku roku nadále vidíme prostor pro růst valuace,“ uvedl Mohsenian ve zprávě klientům. Akcie Colgate Palmolive od začátku roku 2026 vzrostly přibližně o 18 %.

Společnost SLB, dříve Schlumberger, je poskytovatelem služeb pro ropný a plynárenský průmysl a letos si připsala růst o 31 %. Firma navíc nedávno zveřejnila výsledky za druhé čtvrtletí, které překonaly očekávání trhu na úrovni tržeb i zisku. Podle společnosti vyšší aktivita těžby na moři více než vykompenzovala narušení způsobená situací na Blízkém východě.

„Bez efektů Blízkého východu rostly tržby mezikvartálně ve všech divizích. Podpořila je vyšší aktivita v offshore projektech, oživení těžby z nekonvenčních ložisek v USA a silná poptávka po řešeních pro těžbu a zvyšování výtěžnosti ložisek,“ uvedl CEO Olivier Le Peuch. SLB nabízí dividendový výnos 2,35 %.

Targa Resources je jedna z největších severoamerických midstream energetických společností, která zajišťuje těžbu, zpracování, přepravu a skladování ropy a zemního plynu a měla by těžit z nárůstu těžby v Permské pánvi. Podle dat Bloombergu u ní 20 analytiků drží doporučení „buy“, 4 „hold“ s průměrnou cílovou cenou 289,40 USD/akcie, která naznačuje potenciální zhodnocení o 10,6 %. Letos si připsala již přes 40 % a dividendový výnos u ní činí 1,9 %.

Lincoln National je finanční společnost, která nabízí dividendový výnos 4,2 %. Bloomberg u ní monitoruje 6 nákupních doporučení, 6 doporučení držet a 2 prodejní doporučení. Cílová cena 44,31 USD představuje potenciální výnos 3,5 %, přičemž za letošní rok odepsala 4 %. Výsledky bude firma reportovat zítra a trh počítá s poklesem upraveného zisku na akcii asi o 15 %, ale se zdravým momentem u výnosů a snižováním nákladů.

Mezi další kvalitní dividendové tituly zařadila Morgan Stanley také Gilead Sciences, která zveřejní své nejnovější výsledky příští týden. Morgan Stanley ve zprávě z počátku měsíce uvedl, že letos očekává tržby z preventivní HIV injekce Yeztugo od společnosti Gilead Sciences 1,1 miliardy dolarů, tj. nad tržním konsensem 1,05 miliardy dolarů i oficiálním výhledem Gileadu, který počítá s 1 miliardou dolarů. Akcie Gilead Sciences, která nabízí dividendový výnos 2,43 %, letos vzrostly téměř o 10 %.

Northrop Grumman, jeden z největších světových obranných a letecko-kosmických koncernů, nabízí dividendový výnos 1,80 %. V průzkumu Bloombergu u něj má 14 analytiků doporučení koupit a 9 držet. Průměrná cílová cena 650,5 USD nabízí 18,4% možný výnos a za letošní rok akcie firmy klesly o necelá 4 %. Trh u firmy očekává růst tržeb o vysoká jednociferná čísla díky rekordním nevyřízeným objednávkám za 105 miliard dolarů.

Rollins, přední světová firma v oblasti hubení škůdců, nabízí dividendový výnos 1,9 % a od začátku roku tato akcie odepsala více než třetinu své hodnoty. Bloomberg u ní monitoruje 8 doporučení koupit, 8 držet a 3 prodat. Průměrná cílová cena 43,56 USD nabízí možnost 11,7% zisku. UBS nicméně upozorňuje, že tržby za 2Q byly slabší, než očekával trh, i přes snížené odhady a že může ještě nějakou dobu trvat, než se plně obnoví organický růst.
