“Enterprise reported record results in the second quarter of 2022,” said A.J. “Jim” Teague, co-chief executive officer of Enterprise’s general partner. “This performance was primarily driven by record results from our natural gas processing and octane enhancement businesses. The acquisition of Navitas Midstream in February 2022, higher natural gas processing margins and record fee-based natural gas processing volumes led to a $252 million increase in gross operating margin from our natural gas processing business for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter of 2021. Likewise, in our octane enhancement business, record sales volumes and higher average margins generated a $126 million increase in gross operating margin compared to the second quarter of last year. This record performance more than offset a $50 million decrease in gross operating margin in our propylene business primarily due to lower average processing fees.”

“Our pipelines, marine terminals, NGL fractionators and octane enhancement facility reported higher volumes for the second quarter of 2022 compared to both the second quarter of 2021 and sequentially to the first quarter of this year. The partnership reported record natural gas pipeline volumes and octane enhancement sales volumes during the second quarter of 2022,” stated Teague.

“Enterprise generated a record $2.0 billion of DCF, excluding proceeds from asset sales, for the second quarter of 2022 that provided 1.9 times coverage of the increased cash distribution for the quarter and allowed us to repay $740 million of commercial paper that was issued to fund our acquisition of Navitas Midstream. We have $5.5 billion of organic growth projects under construction. These major projects remain on-time and on-budget. The partnership completed the quarter with a strong balance sheet and $4.1 billion in consolidated liquidity,” said Teague.

Review of Second Quarter 2022 Results

Enterprise reported record total gross operating margin of $2.4 billion for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $2.1 billion for the second quarter of 2021. Below is a review of each business segment’s performance for the second quarter of 2022.

NGL Pipelines & Services – Gross operating margin from the NGL Pipelines & Services segment increased 21 percent to a record $1.3 billion for the second quarter of 2022, from $1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2021.

Enterprise’s natural gas processing and related NGL marketing business reported record gross operating margin of $587 million for the second quarter of 2022, a 105 percent increase over gross operating margin of $286 million for the second quarter of 2021. Gross operating margin for the second quarters of 2022 and 2021 included non-cash, MTM losses of $11 million and non-cash, MTM gains of $15 million from hedging activities, respectively.

Enterprise had a full quarter of operations from its five Midland Basin natural gas processing facilities, including the Leiker gas plant which began operations in March 2022. These facilities contributed $139 million of gross operating margin in the second quarter of 2022 on 910 MMcf/d of natural gas processing volumes and 55 MBPD of equity NGL-equivalent production volumes.

The partnership’s Delaware Basin processing plants reported $94 million of gross operating margin in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $17 million for the second quarter of 2021. The results in the second quarter of 2022 include $86 million of condensate sales which, prior to the third quarter of 2021, were included in our Natural Gas Pipelines and Services segment. This was done in order to align these revenues with their associated costs. The Delaware Basin processing plants also benefited from higher natural gas processing volumes.

Gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 for Enterprise’s Rocky Mountain natural gas processing plants increased a combined $27 million to $35 million, compared to the second quarter of last year, primarily due to higher average processing margins, including the impact of hedging activities.

In general, higher NGL prices contributed to an increase in average processing margins for Enterprise’s natural gas processing business. The weighted-average indicative NGL price for the second quarter of 2022 increased 66 percent to $1.06 per gallon compared to the second quarter of 2021. Total fee-based natural gas processing volumes were a record 5.1 Bcf/d in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 4.2 Bcf/d in the second quarter of 2021. Equity NGL-equivalent production volumes were 195 MBPD for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 198 MBPD for the same quarter last year.

Gross operating margin from NGL marketing activities for the second quarter of 2022 increased a net $49 million versus the same quarter in 2021, primarily due to higher sales volumes and average sales margins, which accounted for a $74 million increase, partially offset by a $26 million decrease in non-cash, MTM earnings.

Gross operating margin from the partnership’s NGL pipelines and storage business was $539 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $555 million for the second quarter of 2021. NGL pipeline transportation volumes increased to 3.7 million BPD this quarter from 3.4 million BPD in the second quarter of last year.

A number of Enterprise’s NGL pipelines, including the Mid-America (“MAPL”) and Seminole NGL Pipeline Systems, Shin Oak NGL Pipeline and Chaparral NGL pipeline, serve the Permian Basin and Rocky Mountain regions. On a combined basis, these pipelines reported a net $35 million decrease in gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily attributable to lower average transportation and deficiency fees, including the impacts of certain contracts associated with the Rocky Mountain pipeline segment of the MAPL system that terminated in September 2021. Partially offsetting the impact of the lower fees was a 114 MBPD, net to our interest, increase in aggregate transportation volumes on these pipelines this quarter compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Gross operating margin from the partnership’s Eastern ethane pipelines, which includes ATEX and Aegis pipelines, increased a combined $27 million for the second quarter of this year compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to higher transportation volumes of 34 MBPD on the ATEX Pipeline.

The Enterprise Hydrocarbons Terminal (“EHT”) and related Channel pipeline had a combined $22 million decrease in gross operating margin for the second quarter of this year compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to lower average loading and transportation fees, partially offset by a 73 MBPD increase in export volumes. The partnership’s Morgan’s Point Ethane Export Terminal reported a $15 million increase in gross operating margin, primarily attributable to higher average loading fees. In total, the partnership’s NGL marine terminal volumes increased 12 percent to 747 MBPD this quarter from 665 MBPD reported for the same quarter in 2021.

Enterprise’s NGL fractionation business reported gross operating margin of $201 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $257 million for the second quarter of 2021. Total NGL fractionation volumes were 1.3 million BPD for the second quarter of this year compared to 1.2 million BPD for the same quarter last year.

Gross operating margin from the partnership’s Chambers County NGL fractionation complex decreased a net $84 million this quarter compared to the second quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to $58 million of margins we earned in the second quarter of 2021 from optimizing our power supply arrangements and $40 million payments received for voluntarily reducing power consumption under the Texas Load Resource Demand Response Program (“LaaR”) during the winter storms that impacted Texas in February 2021. NGL fractionation volumes from the Chambers County NGL fractionation complex increased 48 MBPD, net to our interest, this quarter compared to the second quarter of last year.

Enterprise’s Norco fractionator in Louisiana reported a $14 million increase in gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of last year primarily due to higher fractionation volumes of 31 MBPD and higher ancillary service revenue.

Crude Oil Pipelines & Services – Gross operating margin from the partnership’s Crude Oil Pipelines & Services segment was $407 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $419 million for the second quarter of 2021. Gross operating margin for the second quarters of 2022 and 2021 included non-cash, MTM losses related to hedging activities of $38 million and $10 million, respectively. Total crude oil pipeline transportation volumes increased to 2.2 million BPD in the second quarter of 2022 from 2.0 million BPD for the second quarter of 2021. Total crude oil marine terminal volumes were 777 MBPD this quarter compared to 770 MBPD for the same quarter last year.

Gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 for Enterprise’s equity investment in the Seaway Pipeline decreased a net $25 million compared to the second quarter of last year, primarily due to lower average transportation fees and our share of payments received during the second quarter of 2021 associated with the LaaR program in connection with the winter storms in February 2021, partially offset by higher ancillary service and other revenues. Transportation volumes on the Seaway Pipeline increased 71 MBPD, net to our interest, this quarter compared to the second quarter of last year.

Gross operating margin from Enterprise’s crude oil marketing activities decreased $22 million this quarter compared to the second quarter last year, primarily due to higher non-cash, MTM losses during the second quarter of 2022.

The partnership’s West Texas Pipeline System had a $20 million increase in gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to higher ancillary service and other revenues. Transportation volumes on the West Texas Pipeline System increased by 82 MBPD for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter of last year. Gross operating margin from Enterprise’s EFS Midstream system increased $16 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher average transportation fees.

Gross operating margin from the partnership’s Midland terminal increased $10 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher ancillary service and other revenues.

Natural Gas Pipelines & Services – Gross operating margin from Enterprise’s Natural Gas Pipelines & Services segment increased 13 percent to $229 million for the second quarter of 2022 from $202 million for the second quarter of 2021. Total natural gas transportation volumes increased 19 percent to a record 16.8 TBtus/d for the second quarter of 2022 from 14.2 TBtus/d for the second quarter of 2021.

The partnership’s Midland Basin Gathering System, which was part of the acquisition of Navitas Midstream, generated $17 million of gross operating margin this quarter on 1.2 TBtus/d of natural gas gathering volumes.

On a combined basis, gross operating margin from the partnership’s Jonah Gathering System, Piceance Basin Gathering System, and San Juan Gathering System in the Rocky Mountains increased a net $17 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to higher average gathering fees and higher condensate sales, partially offset by lower aggregate gathering volumes of 165 BBtus/d.

Gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 from Enterprise’s Texas Intrastate System increased $12 million compared to the same quarter in 2021, primarily due to higher average transportation fees and capacity reservation revenues. Transportation volumes on the Texas Intrastate System increased 245 BBtus/d for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 from the Acadian Gas System and Haynesville Gathering System increased a combined $7 million, compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to higher transportation volumes. On a combined basis, transportation volumes increased 870 BBtus/d from the second quarter of last year, primarily due to the Gillis Lateral pipeline, which was placed into service in December 2021.

Enterprise’s Delaware Basin Gathering System reported a $31 million decrease in gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to condensate sales for the second quarter of 2022 being included in our Delaware Basin natural gas processing plant results. Natural gas gathering volumes increased 196 BBtus/d this quarter compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Petrochemical & Refined Products Services – Gross operating margin for the Petrochemical & Refined Products Services segment increased 29 percent, or $95 million to $421 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $326 million for the second quarter of 2021. Total segment pipeline transportation volumes were 751 MBPD this quarter compared to 977 MBPD for the same quarter last year.

Gross operating margin from the partnership’s octane enhancement business and related operations increased $126 million to a record $144 million for the second quarter of 2022 primarily due to higher sales volumes and higher average sales margins. The increase in sales volumes was primarily due to the octane enhancement facility being down in the second quarter of 2021 for planned maintenance activities that were completed at the beginning of May 2021.

Enterprise’s butane isomerization and related operations businesses had a net $14 million increase in gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter in 2021, primarily due to higher by-product sales volumes and average prices, and higher isomerization volumes. These increases in gross operating margin were partially offset by higher utility and other operating costs this quarter.

The partnership’s ethylene exports and related activities generated a $13 million increase in gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2022, compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to a 10 MBPD, net to our interest, increase in export volumes.

Gross operating margin from the partnership’s propylene production and related activities decreased $50 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to lower average processing fees and higher utility and other operating costs at our Chambers County propylene production facilities. Total propylene and associated by-product production volumes were 109 MBPD for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 113 MBPD for the second quarter of 2021.

Within the context of this table, total segment gross operating margin represents a subtotal and corresponds to measures similarly titled within the financial statement footnotes provided in our quarterly and annual filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

(6)

Gross operating margin by segment for NGL Pipelines & Services and Crude Oil Pipelines & Services reflects adjustments for non-refundable deferred transportation revenues relating to the make-up rights of committed shippers on certain major pipeline projects. These adjustments are included in managements’ evaluation of segment results. However, these adjustments are excluded from non-GAAP total gross operating margin in compliance with guidance from the SEC.

The weighted-average indicative market price for NGLs (based on prices for such products at Mont Belvieu, Texas, which is the primary industry hub for domestic NGL production) was $1.06 per gallon during the second quarter of 2022 versus $0.64 per gallon during the second quarter of 2021. Fluctuations in our consolidated revenues and cost of sales amounts are explained in large part by changes in energy commodity prices. An increase in our consolidated marketing revenues due to higher energy commodity sales prices may not result in an increase in gross operating margin or cash available for distribution, since our consolidated cost of sales amounts would also be expected to increase due to comparable increases in the purchase prices of the underlying energy commodities. The same type of relationship would be true in the case of lower energy commodity sales prices and purchase costs.

FCF is a non-GAAP measure of how much cash a business generates after accounting for capital expenditures such as plants or pipelines. Additionally, Adjusted FCF is a non-GAAP measure of how much cash a business generates, excluding the net effect of changes in operating accounts, after accounting for capital expenditures. We believe that FCF is important to traditional investors since it reflects the amount of cash available for reducing debt, investing in additional capital projects and/or paying distributions. We believe that Adjusted FCF is also important to traditional investors for the same reasons as FCF, without regard for fluctuations caused by timing of when amounts earned or incurred were collected, received or paid from period to period. Since we partner with other companies to fund certain capital projects of our consolidated subsidiaries, our determination of FCF and Adjusted FCF appropriately reflect the amount of cash contributed from and distributed to noncontrolling interests.

Adjusted CFFO is a non-GAAP measure that represents net cash flow provided by operating activities before the net effect of changes in operating accounts, as summarized from the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We believe that it is important to consider this non-GAAP measure as it can often be a better way to measure the amount of cash generated from our operations that can be used to fund our capital investments or return value to our investors through cash distributions and buybacks, without regard for fluctuations caused by timing of when amounts earned or incurred were collected, received or paid from period to period.

Sustaining capital expenditures are capital expenditures (as defined by GAAP) resulting from improvements to and major renewals of existing assets. Such expenditures serve to maintain existing operations but do not generate additional revenues.

(2)

The first six months of 2021 include $100 million of accounts receivable that we do not expect to collect in the normal billing cycle.

DCF is an important non-GAAP liquidity measure for our common unitholders since it serves as an indicator of our success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this liquidity measure indicates to investors whether or not we are generating cash flows at a level that can sustain or support an increase in our quarterly cash distributions. DCF is also a quantitative standard used by the investment community with respect to publicly traded partnerships because the value of a partnership unit is, in part, measured by its yield, which is based on the amount of cash distributions a partnership can pay to a common unitholder.

Excludes amortization of major maintenance costs for reaction-based plants, which are a component of Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by our management and external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest and support our indebtedness; and the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities.

Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Adjusted EBITDA data presented in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net cash flow provided by operating activities.

Excludes amortization of major maintenance costs for reaction-based plants, which are a component of gross operating margin.

We evaluate segment performance based on our financial measure of gross operating margin. Gross operating margin is an important performance measure of the core profitability of our operations and forms the basis of our internal financial reporting. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that our management uses in evaluating segment results.

The term “total gross operating margin” represents GAAP operating income exclusive of (i) depreciation, amortization and accretion expenses (excluding amortization of major maintenance costs for reaction-based plants), (ii) impairment charges, (iii) gains and losses attributable to asset sales and related matters, and (iv) general and administrative costs. Total gross operating margin includes equity in the earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, but is exclusive of other income and expense transactions, income taxes, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles and extraordinary charges. Total gross operating margin is presented on a 100 percent basis before any allocation of earnings to noncontrolling interests. The GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to total gross operating margin is operating income.

Total gross operating margin excludes amounts attributable to shipper make-up rights as described in footnote (6) to Exhibit A of this press release.
