Western Midstream Partners LPNYSE: WES

Western Midstream offers a high, tax-deferred yield and strong fundamentals, with potential for increased distributions and enhanced payouts in 2025. WES's affiliation with Occidental Petroleum (OXY) poses risks due to potential conflicts of interest and uncertainty about OXY's intentions to divest its WES stake. Recent developments, including OXY's partial sale of WES units and CEO transitions, have created market uncertainty but also potential investment opportunities.

Western Midstream Partners continues to hit throughput records in the Delaware basin, but slower growth is expected going forward. With the moderation in growth, I am slightly reducing my projections for EBITDA and distributions next year. WES' 9.2% forward distribution yield remains sustainable and could grow to 10% by 2027.

Western Midstream offers a high 9% yield, benefiting from rising gas production in the Permian Basin. The company is expanding its gas gathering and processing capacity, particularly in the Delaware Basin, which is expected to drive long-term growth. Despite resilient earnings, Western Midstream's distribution coverage is low, making it a higher-risk investment compared to peers like Enterprise Products.
