FUNDAMENTAL RATING
FUNDAMENTAL SCORE
47 / 100
Summary
Kinder Morgan reports an Altman Z-score of 1.37, which sits below the distress threshold of 1.81 and raises short-term solvency concern. Revenue compounded at -4.1% a year (CAGR, or compound annual growth rate) over three years, while net income compounded at 6.2% a year, showing a divergence between top-line contraction and bottom-line improvement. Latest annual revenue rose 12.2% YoY (year-over-year) and net income rose 17.0% YoY, consistent with a recovery from prior declines. The most recent quarter delivered $764M in net income but declined QoQ (quarter-over-quarter) by 11.9%, so quarterly profitability is softer even as annual comparables improved. Assets cover liabilities 1.81 times, which provides a measurable balance-sheet buffer. The next report must show sustained annual revenue and net income growth alongside stable or higher operating cash flow to ease the solvency signal from the Altman Z-score.

Data Source
This dashboard applies a modified 9-signal Piotroski F-Score (Piotroski, 2000) and Altman Z-Score models. Fundamental filing data is sourced from the SEC's EDGAR XBRL database (primary), with API Ninjas as backup for freshly-filed 10-Ks not yet in SEC. Live price, market cap, and EPS display use Tiingo end-of-day data. This page is informational analysis, not investment advice. See Financial Disclaimer.

Formula & Methodology
Trend inputAnnual revenue and net income year-over-year direction contributes 20% of the score.
Piotroski inputModified 9-test Piotroski F-Score (Quality) contributes 40% of the score.
Altman inputAltman Z-Score (Distress) contributes 40% of the score.
Rating ruleFormula: Trend (20%) + Piotroski F-Score (40%) + Altman Z-Score (40%). Trend blends annual revenue and net income year-over-year direction. Piotroski is the modified 9-test variant (7 classic + 2 cash-flow tests). Altman uses the 1968 Z-Score with Safe/Grey/Distress zones. Combined blend uses ±0.45 thresholds: Bullish at +0.45 or higher, Bearish at -0.45 or lower, Neutral in between. Missing sub-signals count as Neutral (0) and weights are not re-normalized — a company with fewer available signals must earn its rating from stronger reads on the remaining pillars.
