About Oneok Inc
ONEOK is a midstream energy company that gathers, processes, transports and stores natural gas and natural gas liquids. Its pipelines and processing plants link oil and gas producing regions with refineries, petrochemical plants, utilities and export facilities. Following acquisitions it has also taken on refined products and crude oil logistics. Its customers are mainly energy producers, processors and industrial and utility users that pay to move and process their output.
Most of the money comes from fees for gathering, processing, transport and storage, along with some earnings tied to commodity prices. Revenue was $39.4 billion over the last twelve months, and sales have grown at 14.5% a year across the last three years. The operating margin is 15.5%, and net debt is 4.3 times EBITDA. A dividend is paid, with a yield of 4.5%. On the site's X-Ray Score it receives 52 out of 100.

Debt = borrowings plus lease liabilities. Cash & securities = cash, equivalents and short-term marketable securities (long-term securities are not counted, so net cash can be understated for companies that hold large long-term investments). Net debt = debt minus cash & securities. Source: latest SEC 10-Q/10-K. EBIT / EV yield = operating profit divided by market cap plus net debt.
Fair value estimate

Undervalued+47.0% to fair value
Average of the 11 valuation models that pass our checks: multiples, discounted cash flow, dividend discount and earnings power value. A model more than 100% above or 60% below the price is left out as unrealistic. Model uncertainty is Medium, based on how far apart the models are. Undervalued or Overvalued means the gap to fair value is more than 17.5%.
A model estimate, not a price target or recommendation. Inputs: risk-free 5.13%, equity risk premium 4.30% (Damodaran). How it works.
What this means
Weak business, but the price is low
Our models put fair value above today's price, but models can be wrong, so check the business first. A high score does not guarantee a good outcome; it shifts the odds a little. Use the checklist as a prompt for your own research.

Sector leaders: highest X-Ray Score in Energy
OKE ranks #8 of 20 in Energy and #1 of 4 in Oil & Gas Storage & Transportation by X-Ray Score. A higher score is stronger on our five pillars; it is a ranking of facts, not a forecast.
Green means better than the peer median, red worse (only where a higher or lower figure is clearly better). A dash means too few companies report the figure. P/E, EV/EBITDA and price changes are not graded: a different level is not good or bad by itself.

These ratings compare companies with each other and describe the past; they are not a forecast, a recommendation or part of the X-Ray Score. A factor is left out when its data is missing or meaningless (for example a P/E on negative earnings). A dash in the history columns means fewer than three usable years.

Signals describe what the chart is doing, not what to do. Moving averages: price above the average is bullish. Oscillators use the usual thresholds (RSI 30/70, Stochastic 20/80, CCI ±100, Williams %R −80/−20; MACD and momentum above zero are bullish). Weekly and monthly views use closing prices only.
