CEO Perspective
Chad Zamarin, president and chief executive officer, made the following comments:

“Williams delivered another outstanding quarter with Adjusted EBITDA up 8% over second quarter last year, driven primarily by Transco expansions and new volumes in the Gulf as well as higher volumes in our Northeast and West gathering and processing segments. With the continued strength of our base business and our recent acquisition of Saber Midstream in the Haynesville, we expect earnings growth
1


to continue to build in the second half of the year. As a result, we are raising our 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance midpoint again by $50 million to $7.75 billion, for a total increase of $350 million from our original 2025 guidance.

"Our teams continue to deliver across our entire asset base. We recently completed six projects, including Texas to Louisiana Energy Pathway, Louisiana Energy Gateway and the Shenandoah deepwater project. We also accelerated the timeline for Transco’s Southeast Supply Enhancement project to meet growing demand for natural gas across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast."

Zamarin added, "At Williams, we’re investing in infrastructure that will power America’s future. Our strong and steady growth across our portfolio underscores the critical role of natural gas as the backbone of reliable, affordable, and clean energy. We’re proud to build the infrastructure that is essential to meeting energy needs in the U.S. and globally."

(2) Does not represent leverage ratios measured for WMB credit agreement compliance or leverage ratios as calculated by the major credit ratings agencies. Debt is net of cash on hand, and Adjusted EBITDA reflects the sum of the last four quarters.
(3) Capital Investments include increases to property, plant, and equipment (growth & maintenance capital), purchases of and contributions to equity-method investments and purchases of other long-term investments. 2Q 2025 and year-to-date 2025 exclude $43 million for the acquisition of Saber Midstream, which closed June 2025. Year-to-date 2025 capital also excludes $319 million for the acquisition of Rimrock, which closed January 2025, and $153 million for the investment in Cogentrix, which closed March 2025, and $1 million for an adjustment of the Crowheart acquisition and Discovery consolidation, which closed 2024. Year-to-date 2024 capital excludes $1.844 billion for the acquisition of the Gulf Coast Storage assets, which closed January 2024.

GAAP Measures
Second-quarter and year-to-date 2025 net income increased by $145 million and $204 million, respectively, compared to the prior year. Both comparative periods benefited from higher service revenues of $204 million and $302 million, respectively, driven by Transco expansion projects, new Gulf volumes, and higher gathering and processing volumes in the Northeast and West, as well as favorable changes of $167 million and $227 million, respectively, in net unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives. The year-to-date improvement also benefited from higher realized results from upstream operations including contributions from the fourth-quarter 2024 Crowheart acquisition. These favorable changes for both periods were partially offset by higher depreciation expense, higher operating costs, lower interest income and lower equity allowance for funds used during construction (equity AFUDC) associated with capital projects at our regulated natural gas pipelines. The tax provision for both periods increased primarily due to higher pretax income.
2



Second-quarter and year-to-date 2025 cash flow from operations increased compared to the prior year primarily due to favorable net changes to derivative collateral requirements and higher operating results exclusive of non-cash items. The second-quarter period was also impacted by net unfavorable changes in working capital, while the year-to-date net changes in working capital were favorable.

Non-GAAP Measures
Second-quarter 2025 Adjusted EBITDA increased by $141 million over the prior year, driven by the previously described increases in service revenues, partially offset by higher operating costs and lower equity AFUDC. Year-to-date 2025 Adjusted EBITDA increased by $196 million over the prior year, driven by the previously described increases in service revenues and higher net realized results from upstream operations, partially offset by higher operating and administrative costs and lower equity AFUDC. Both periods also benefited from adjustments to reflect the timing of Transco’s rate case.

Second-quarter and year-to-date 2025 Adjusted Net Income improved by $45 million and $56 million, respectively, over the prior year, driven by the previously described impacts to net income, adjusted primarily to remove the effects of net unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives and reflect the timing of Transco’s rate case, as well as the related income tax effects of such adjustments.

Second-quarter 2025 Available Funds From Operations (AFFO) increased by $67 million compared to the prior year primarily due to higher results from operations, exclusive of non-cash items, and higher distributions from equity-method investees. Year-to-date 2025 AFFO increased by $5 million compared to the prior year as increased distributions from equity-method investees were substantially offset by lower contributions from noncontrolling interests.

Note: Williams uses Modified EBITDA for its segment reporting. Definitions of Modified EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and schedules reconciling to net income are included in this news release.

Transmission & Gulf of America
Second-quarter and year-to-date 2025 Modified and Adjusted EBITDA improved compared to the prior year driven by Transco expansion projects and new Gulf volumes, partially offset by lower equity AFUDC. Modified EBITDA for the 2024 periods was impacted by one-time acquisition costs, which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, while adjusted EBITDA for the 2025 periods reflect adjustments for the timing of Transco’s rate case.





3


Northeast G&P
Second-quarter 2025 Modified and Adjusted EBITDA increased compared to the prior year driven primarily by higher gathering and processing volumes at Ohio Valley Midstream, Cardinal, and Bradford.

West
Second-quarter 2025 Modified and Adjusted EBITDA increased compared to the prior year driven by higher volumes in the Haynesville and new volumes from the 2025 Rimrock and Saber acquisitions, partially offset by lower minimum volume commitment (MVC) revenues in the Eagle Ford. The year-to-date period also benefited from higher commodity margins.

Gas & NGL Marketing Services
Second-quarter 2025 Modified EBITDA increased from the prior year primarily reflecting a $102 million net favorable change in unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. Year-to-date 2025 Modified EBITDA also increased from the prior year reflecting a $194 million net favorable change in unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by a decline in gas marketing margins.

Other
The increase in second-quarter 2025 Modified EBITDA compared to the prior year reflects a $65 million favorable change in unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. The increase in year-to-date 2025 Modified EBITDA reflects improved realized results from upstream operations, including contributions from the Crowheart acquisition in fourth-quarter 2024, and a $33 million net favorable change in unrealized gains/losses on commodity derivatives, which is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

2025 Financial Guidance
The company is raising the midpoint of its 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance by $50 million to $7.75 billion within the range of between $7.6 billion and $7.9 billion. The company continues to expect 2025 growth capex to between $2.575 billion and $2.875 billion and maintenance capex remains between $650 million and $750 million, excluding capital of $150 million for emissions reduction and modernization initiatives. Williams expects its leverage ratio midpoint for 2025 to be 3.65x and has increased the dividend by 5.3% on an annualized basis to $2.00 in 2025 from $1.90 in 2024.

Non-GAAP Measures
This news release and accompanying materials may include certain financial measures – adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income (“earnings”), adjusted earnings per share, available funds from operations and dividend coverage ratio – that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the SEC.

Our segment performance measure, modified EBITDA, is defined as net income (loss) before income (loss) from discontinued operations, income tax expense, net interest expense, equity earnings from equity-method investments, other net investing income, impairments of equity investments and goodwill, depreciation and amortization expense, and accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations for nonregulated operations. We also add our proportional ownership share (based on ownership interest) of modified EBITDA of equity-method investments, including our indirect share from interests owned by equity-method investees.

Adjusted EBITDA further excludes items of income or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations. Such items are excluded from net income to determine adjusted income and adjusted earnings per share. Management believes this measure provides investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations.

Available funds from operations (AFFO) is defined as cash flow from operations excluding the effect of changes in working capital and certain other changes in noncurrent assets and liabilities, reduced by preferred dividends and net distributions to noncontrolling interests. AFFO may be adjusted to exclude certain items that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations.

This news release is accompanied by a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP financial measures. Management uses these financial measures because they are accepted financial indicators used by investors to compare company performance. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of assets and the cash that the business is generating.

Neither adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income, nor available funds from operations are intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor are they presented as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Given the uncertainties and risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, we caution investors not to unduly rely on our forward-looking
20


statements. We disclaim any obligations to, and do not intend to, update the above list or announce publicly the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments.
In addition to causing our actual results to differ, the factors listed above and referred to below may cause our intentions to change from those statements of intention set forth in this report. Such changes in our intentions may also cause our results to differ. We may change our intentions, at any time and without notice, based upon changes in such factors, our assumptions, or otherwise.
Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, we caution that there are important factors, in addition to those listed above, that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. For a detailed discussion of those factors, see (a) Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on February 25, 2025, and (b) Part II, Item 1A.
