1Q 2026 financial results. Summit’s first quarter 2026 financial and operational results reflected continued strength in its Rockies and Permian segments, offset by weaker natural gas pricing, lower Mid-Con volumes, and higher interest expense. The company generated revenue of $139.1 million, adjusted EBITDA of $54.2 million, and free cash flow of $11.4 million. Net loss attributable to Summit Midstream Corporation amounted to $5.3 million, or $(0.43) per share, compared to a net loss of $1.9 million, or $(0.16) per share, in the first quarter of 2025, and our loss estimate of $6.1 million, or $(0.49) per share. 

Updating estimates. We now forecast 2026 revenue of $584.8 million and adj. EBITDA of $241.4 million, compared to our prior estimates of $579.2 million and $245.2 million, respectively. First-quarter operational and financial results suggest that Summit’s earnings profile could strengthen progressively through the remainder of the year, with the second quarter expected to mark the beginning of a noticeable operational recovery, with the third and fourth quarters likely benefiting from accelerating volumes and improved commodity fundamentals. Management reiterated full-year 2026 adj. EBITDA guidance of $225 million to $265 million.
