Williams Cos stock stood at USD 71.11 on the NYSE on September 23, 2026, while the company reported 9.8 percent year-over-year revenue growth in the second quarter of 2026. The latest figures put operating performance ahead of the share price move, with earnings and analyst expectations pointing in different directions.
Revenue grows 9.8 percent
Williams reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of USD 3 billion, up 9.8 percent from the year-ago quarter, according to Zacks. The same report said adjusted EPS reached USD 0.50, compared with USD 0.46 in the prior-year quarter and USD 0.52 in consensus estimates.
The revenue increase came with a clear earnings tradeoff: adjusted EPS improved by USD 0.04 year over year but fell USD 0.02 short of consensus. That contrast makes the revenue figure more important for assessing whether growth is translating into operating leverage.
Capital One sets USD 92 target
Capital One initiated coverage on September 22, 2026, with an Overweight rating and a USD 92 price target, as MarketBeat reported. MarketBeat also listed a consensus Buy rating and an average target of USD 85.94.
Williams operates in the energy sector and the oil and gas midstream industry, with pipeline, gathering, processing, storage and marketing assets across the United States. Its network extends across approximately 32,000 miles, according to the company profile at Stock Analysis.
Stock stays below yearly high
At USD 71.11 on September 23, 2026, Williams stock was USD 8.97 below its 52-week high of USD 80.08 and USD 14.92 above its 52-week low of USD 56.19. The company had a market capitalization of USD 86,979,438,934 on the same quote date.
The price position leaves the shares below the yearly high while the business reports higher revenue and year-over-year EPS. For investors, the key numerical tension is the combination of 9.8 percent revenue growth and adjusted EPS of USD 0.50 against USD 0.52 consensus.
