SMC--
Adjusted EBITDA guidance, Williston contract life and long-term value, weighted average contract life in Williston Basin, 2025 adjusted EBITDA guidance and recovery expectations are the key contradictions discussed in Summit MidstreamSMC-- Corporation's latest 2025Q2 earnings call.



Adjust EBITDA Performance:
- Summit Midstream reported second quarter adjusted EBITDA of $61 million, which was slightly below expectations.
- The underperformance was primarily due to initial underperformance of wells in the DJ Basin, delays in well completions, and lower realized commodity prices.

Well Connections and Development Activity:
- The company reported roughly 47 new well connections in the first half of the year and has 3 active drilling rigs behind their systems.
- This strong development activity is driven by customer development behind their footprint, despite some customers deferring development due to earlier crude price drops.

Reshuffling of Asset and Infrastructure:
- Summit Midstream identified and initiated a project to relocate owned compression units from the Piceance and DJ Basins to the Arkoma Basin, expecting an increase in EBITDA margin by the first quarter of 2026.
- This strategic move replaces leased units, enhancing operational efficiency and profitability.

10-Year Extension of Gathering Agreements:
- The company executed a 10-year extension of certain gathering agreements with a key customer in the Williston, increasing their weighted average contract life from 4 to 8 years.
- This extension demonstrates the durability of their business and the long-term value of their assets and is a result of offering rate relief to improve customer drilling economics.

Inclusion in Russell Indices:
- Summit Midstream was added to the Russell 3000, Russell 2000, and Russell Microcap indices during the June reconstitution.
- This milestone enhances the company's visibility among institutional investors, increases passive investment, and broadens its shareholder base.
