MPLX Lp (MPLX)

FINDLAY, Ohio, Feb. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX) today filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2025. The filing can be viewed through a link on MPLX's website at www.mplx.com by selecting the "SEC Filings" link under the "Investors" tab.

MPLX generates very stable cash flow. It has a rock-solid financial profile.

MPLX LP remains a "Buy," underpinned by robust U.S. natural gas demand and a focused $2.4 billion organic growth capex plan for 2026. MPLX's distribution yield is nearly 8%, with a 1.4x coverage ratio, and management is guiding for 12% annual distribution growth for at least two more years. Units trade at a fair value P/EBITDA of 7.5, supporting an 8% total return outlook for the remainder of 2026 and a path to 12%+ annualized returns by 2030.

MPLX LP and Western Midstream Partners are often compared, but diverge significantly in strategy, asset focus, and growth prospects. MPLX aggressively expands its gas business, targeting data centers and pursuing major M&A, while WES prioritizes structural simplification and diversification, notably into water assets. Both operate toll-road models with stable, long-term contracts and MLP structures, but WES offers higher current distribution yield and faster historical payout growth.

High yield stocks can be traps. But they can also be great investments when you find the right ones.

Three income powerhouses are trading at very compelling valuations right now. Each offers attractive income with substantial upside potential. Here's why I'm overweighting them while the market is still giving them away at a discount.

MPLX remains a 'Strong buy' due to robust fundamentals, attractive valuation, and a nearly 8% forward distribution yield. Capital allocation is heavily focused on natural gas and NGL projects, positioning MPLX for structural tailwinds from cleaner energy and geopolitics. Q4 2025 results showed double-digit income growth, highlighting management's operational discipline and supporting sustainable distribution growth.

High yield is easy; sustaining it is the real challenge. Two overlooked income machines quietly solve a major retirement problem. Why inflation may matter far less than most investors think.

For most people, bonds are viewed as the safe income play, but right now, with inflation hovering around 2.7% in December 2025 and the average bond rate hovering somewhere in the mid 3% range according to the U.S.

The yield that looks safe today may be your biggest long-term risk. Dividend cuts can be more damaging than market pullbacks. A better income strategy most retirees overlook.
