Williams Companies stock was trading at USD 72.22 on the NYSE on September 23, 2026, up 1.75 percent from the prior close and 9.8 percent below its 52-week high of USD 80.08. The latest catalyst is a USD 2.75 billion senior notes offering dated September 22, 2026, with maturities extending from 2029 to 2056.
Debt deal adds a fresh checkpoint
As Yahoo Finance reported, Williams raised USD 2.75 billion through several senior note tranches carrying coupons from 5.000 percent to 6.400 percent. The maturities span 27 years, making the transaction a balance-sheet and refinancing event rather than a short-term operating update.
For investors, the structure puts the companys infrastructure growth story alongside a longer debt timetable. Williams operates in energy infrastructure, so the cost of capital remains relevant to the value of contracted pipeline and storage assets.
Revenue grows in the second quarter
Williams reported second-quarter 2026 adjusted EPS of USD 0.50, below the Zacks consensus of USD 0.52 but above the USD 0.46 recorded in the year-ago quarter, according to Yahoo Finance. Revenue reached USD 3.05 billion, up 9.8 percent year over year, while adjusted EBITDA rose 6 percent to USD 1.9 billion.
The comparison is mixed but concrete: revenue expanded at a faster rate than adjusted EBITDA, while adjusted EPS improved from the prior-year quarter yet missed the consensus estimate. That combination makes operating growth and financing costs the two clearest numbers around the stock.
Stock stays below its yearly high
Williams Companies carried a market capitalization of USD 88.337 billion on September 23, 2026. The company also declared a quarterly dividend of USD 0.525 per share payable September 28, according to MarketBeat.
