News Releases

HOUSTON, Feb. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (Nasdaq: PAA) and Plains GP Holdings (Nasdaq: PAGP) today reported fourth-quarter and full-year 2021 results and provided the following updates:

Summary Highlights

• Reported fourth-quarter and full-year 2021 Net income attributable to PAA of $450 million and $593 million, respectively, and 2021 Net cash provided by operating activities of $635 million and $1,996 million, respectively
  
  
• Reported fourth-quarter and full-year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA of $564 million and $2,196 million, respectively
  
  
• Generated full-year 2021 Free Cash Flow after Distributions, including $875 million of net asset sales proceeds, of $1.65 billion, or $600 million above initial February 2021 expectations
  
  
• Reduced total debt by approximately $1 billion and repurchased approximately $175 million of PAA common units (approximately 2.5% of common equity float) during 2021
  
  
• Furnished full-year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA and Free Cash Flow guidance of +/- $2.2 billion and +/- $1.4 billion, respectively
  

Capital Allocation Update

Plains remains focused on maximizing Free Cash Flow and allocating it through a balanced approach, with a continued near-team prioritization towards debt reduction while increasing cash returned to our equity holders over time. As a result of meaningful progress reducing debt and an improved business outlook, the company plans to continue increasing cash returned to equity holders through a combination of distribution growth and discretionary common equity repurchases under the $500 million repurchase authorization. Plains has repurchased approximately $228 million of common equity, or 24.3 million common units at an average price of $9.40 since the program was established in November 2020.

For our first quarter 2022 distribution payable in May 2022, management intends to recommend to the Board of Directors of PAA GP Holdings LLC ("the Plains Board") an increase to PAA's and PAGP's annualized distribution from $0.72 to $0.87 per common unit and Class A share. Consistent with past practice, the Plains Board will consider management's recommendation prior to its approval and declaration of the distribution for the first quarter of 2022.

"2021 was a year of solid execution, maximizing Free Cash Flow, reducing absolute levels of debt, returning cash to our equity holders, optimizing our business and advancing our sustainability efforts," stated Willie Chiang, Chairman and CEO of Plains. "Looking forward, Plains is well positioned to generate significant cash flow on a multi-year basis. The fundamentals supporting our business have meaningfully improved with the Permian Basin positioned to drive U.S. production growth and Plains is well positioned to service this growth. We remain focused on allocating our cash flow in a balanced manner, prioritizing debt reduction in the near-term while increasing cash returned to our equity holders over time. Today's capital allocation update is a positive step in that direction."

Summary of Selected Financial Data by Segment (unaudited)
(in millions)

___________________________
** Indicates that variance as a percentage is not meaningful.

⁽¹⁾ During the fourth quarter of 2021, we modified our definition of Segment Adjusted EBITDA to exclude amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests. In connection with the Plains Oryx Permian Basin joint venture formation in October 2021, our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") determined this modification resulted in amounts that were more meaningful to evaluate segment performance. Amounts for prior periods have been recast to reflect this modification.

⁽²⁾ During the fourth quarter of 2021, we reorganized our historical operating segments: Transportation, Facilities and Supply and Logistics into two operating segments: Crude Oil and Natural Gas Liquids ("NGL"). The change in our segments stems from several factors including, (i) a multi-year transition in the midstream energy industry driven by increased competition that has reduced the stand alone earnings opportunities of our supply and logistics activities such that those activities now function as a business development effort to help maximize the utilization of our Crude Oil and NGL assets and (ii) internal changes regarding the oversight and reporting of our assets and related results of operations. All segment data and related disclosures for earlier periods presented herein have been recast to reflect the new segment reporting structure.

⁽³⁾ Estimated impact of divestitures completed during 2020 and 2021, assuming an effective date of January 1, 2020. Divested assets primarily included certain Los Angeles Basin crude oil storage terminals, natural gas storage facilities and the sale of a portion of our interest in a joint venture pipeline, all of which were previously included in our Crude Oil segment, and the sale of certain NGL storage terminals previously reported in our NGL segment.

Fourth-quarter 2021 Crude Oil Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased 9% versus comparable 2020 results primarily due to less favorable market conditions for our merchant activities (the majority associated with contango margins that benefited fourth-quarter 2020, the balance reflecting the continued compression of regional basis differentials). In addition, fourth-quarter 2021 was negatively impacted by the sale of our natural gas storage business, which closed on August 2, 2021 and is reported within our Crude Oil Segment. These impacts were partially offset by higher volumes across our pipeline systems in the 2021 period, particularly in the Permian (largely associated with higher pipeline gathering volumes and higher volumes on certain long-haul systems delivering to Cushing and Corpus Christi).

Fourth-quarter 2021 NGL Segment Adjusted EBITDA increased 58% versus comparable 2020 results primarily due to improved NGL sales margins versus fourth-quarter 2020. These benefits were partially offset by the impact of an operational incident at our Fort Saskatchewan facility that occurred in late September.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Selected Items Impacting Comparability

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, management uses additional measures known as "non-GAAP financial measures" in its evaluation of past performance and prospects for the future and to assess the amount of cash that is available for distributions, debt repayments, common equity repurchases and other general partnership purposes.

The primary additional measures used by management are earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (including our proportionate share of depreciation and amortization and write-downs related to cancelled projects of unconsolidated entities), gains and losses on asset sales and asset impairments, goodwill impairment losses and gains on and impairments of investments in unconsolidated entities, adjusted for certain selected items impacting comparability ("Adjusted EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA, Implied Distributable Cash Flow ("DCF"), Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow after Distributions. Our definition and calculation of certain non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA, Implied DCF and certain other non-GAAP financial performance measures are reconciled to Net Income/(Loss), and Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow after Distributions are reconciled to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities, (the most directly comparable measures as reported in accordance with GAAP) for the historical periods presented in the tables attached to this release, and should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. In addition, we encourage you to visit our website at www.plainsallamerican.com (in particular the section under "Financial Information" entitled "Non-GAAP Reconciliations" within the Investor Relations tab), which presents a reconciliation of our commonly used non-GAAP and supplemental financial measures. We do not reconcile non-GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis as it is impractical to do so without unreasonable effort.

Performance Measures

Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA and Implied DCF provides useful information to investors regarding our performance and results of operations because these measures, when used to supplement related GAAP financial measures, (i) provide additional information about our core operating performance and ability to fund distributions to our unitholders through cash generated by our operations and (ii) provide investors with the same financial analytical framework upon which management bases financial, operational, compensation and planning/budgeting decisions. We also present these and additional non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income attributable to PAA and basic and diluted adjusted net income per common unit, as they are measures that investors, rating agencies and debt holders have indicated are useful in assessing us and our results of operations. These non-GAAP measures may exclude, for example, (i) charges for obligations that are expected to be settled with the issuance of equity instruments, (ii) gains and losses on derivative instruments that are related to underlying activities in another period (or the reversal of such adjustments from a prior period), gains and losses on derivatives that are related to investing activities (such as the purchase of linefill) and inventory valuation adjustments, as applicable, (iii) long-term inventory costing adjustments, (iv) items that are not indicative of our core operating results and/or (v) other items that we believe should be excluded in understanding our core operating performance. These measures may be further adjusted to include amounts related to deficiencies associated with minimum volume commitments whereby we have billed the counterparties for their deficiency obligation and such amounts are recognized as deferred revenue in "Other current liabilities" in our Consolidated Financial Statements. We also adjust for amounts billed by our equity method investees related to deficiencies under minimum volume commitments. All such amounts are presented net of applicable amounts subsequently recognized into revenue. Furthermore, the calculation of these measures contemplates tax effects as a separate reconciling item, where applicable. We have defined all such items as "selected items impacting comparability." Due to the nature of the selected items, certain selected items impacting comparability may impact certain non-GAAP financial measures, referred to as adjusted results, but not impact other non-GAAP financial measures. We do not necessarily consider all of our selected items impacting comparability to be non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, but we believe that an understanding of these selected items impacting comparability is material to the evaluation of our operating results and prospects.

Although we present selected items impacting comparability that management considers in evaluating our performance, you should also be aware that the items presented do not represent all items that affect comparability between the periods presented. Variations in our operating results are also caused by changes in volumes, prices, exchange rates, mechanical interruptions, acquisitions, divestitures, investment capital projects and numerous other factors. These types of variations may not be separately identified in this release, but will be discussed, as applicable, in management's discussion and analysis of operating results in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Liquidity Measures

Management also uses the non-GAAP financial measures Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow after Distributions to assess the amount of cash that is available for distributions, debt repayments, common equity repurchases and other general partnership purposes. Free Cash Flow is defined as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities, less Net Cash Used in Investing Activities, which primarily includes acquisition, investment and maintenance capital expenditures, investments in unconsolidated entities and the impact from the purchase and sale of linefill and base gas, net of proceeds from the sales of assets and further impacted by cash received from or paid to noncontrolling interests. Free Cash Flow is further reduced by cash distributions paid to our preferred and common unitholders to arrive at Free Cash Flow after Distributions.

COMPUTATION OF BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME/(LOSS) PER COMMON UNIT ⁽¹⁾
(in millions, except per unit data)

___________________________

⁽¹⁾ We calculate net income/(loss) allocated to common unitholders based on the distributions pertaining to the current period's net income. After adjusting for the appropriate period's distributions, the remaining undistributed earnings or excess distributions over earnings, if any, are allocated to common unitholders and participating securities in accordance with the contractual terms of our partnership agreement in effect for the period and as further prescribed under the two-class method.

⁽²⁾ The possible conversion of our Series A preferred units was excluded from the calculation of diluted net income/(loss) per common unit for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 as the effect was antidilutive or did not change the presentation of diluted net income/(loss) per common unit.

⁽³⁾ Our equity-indexed compensation plan awards that contemplate the issuance of common units are considered dilutive unless (i) they become vested only upon the satisfaction of a performance condition and (ii) that performance condition has yet to be satisfied. Equity-indexed compensation plan awards that are deemed to be dilutive are reduced by a hypothetical common unit repurchase based on the remaining unamortized fair value, as prescribed by the treasury stock method in guidance issued by the FASB. For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the effect of equity-indexed compensation plan awards of less than 1 million was antidilutive, or did not change the presentation of diluted net income/(loss) per common unit.

SELECTED ITEMS IMPACTING COMPARABILITY
(in millions)

___________________________
⁽¹⁾ Certain of our non-GAAP financial measures may not be impacted by each of the selected items impacting comparability.

⁽²⁾ We use derivative instruments for risk management purposes and our related processes include specific identification of hedging instruments to an underlying hedged transaction. Although we identify an underlying transaction for each derivative instrument we enter into, there may not be an accounting hedge relationship between the instrument and the underlying transaction. In the course of evaluating our results of operations, we identify differences in the timing of earnings from the derivative instruments and the underlying transactions and exclude the related gains and losses in determining adjusted results such that the earnings from the derivative instruments and the underlying transactions impact adjusted results in the same period. In addition, we exclude gains and losses on derivatives that are related to investing activities, such as the purchase of linefill. We also exclude the impact of corresponding inventory valuation adjustments, as applicable.

⁽³⁾ We carry crude oil and NGL inventory that is comprised of minimum working inventory requirements in third-party assets and other working inventory that is needed for our commercial operations. We consider this inventory necessary to conduct our operations and we intend to carry this inventory for the foreseeable future. Therefore, we classify this inventory as long-term on our balance sheet and do not hedge the inventory with derivative instruments (similar to linefill in our own assets). We treat the impact of changes in the average cost of the long-term inventory (that result from fluctuations in market prices) and write-downs of such inventory that result from price declines as a selected item impacting comparability.

⁽⁴⁾ We, and certain of our equity method investments, have certain agreements that require counterparties to deliver, transport or throughput a minimum volume over an agreed upon period. Substantially all of such agreements were entered into with counterparties to economically support the return on capital expenditure necessary to construct the related asset. Some of these agreements include make-up rights if the minimum volume is not met. We, or our equity method investees, record a receivable from the counterparty in the period that services are provided or when the transaction occurs, including amounts for deficiency obligations from counterparties associated with minimum volume commitments. If a counterparty has a make-up right associated with a deficiency, we, or our equity method investees, defer the revenue attributable to the counterparty's make-up right and subsequently recognize the revenue at the earlier of when the deficiency volume is delivered or shipped, when the make-up right expires or when it is determined that the counterparty's ability to utilize the make-up right is remote. We include the impact of amounts billed to counterparties for their deficiency obligation, net of applicable amounts subsequently recognized into revenue or equity earnings, as a selected item impacting comparability. We believe the inclusion of the contractually committed revenues associated with that period is meaningful to investors as the related asset has been constructed, is standing ready to provide the committed service and the fixed operating costs are included in the current period results.

⁽⁵⁾ Our total equity-indexed compensation expense includes expense associated with awards that will be settled in units and awards that will be settled in cash. The awards that will be settled in units are included in our diluted net income per unit calculation when the applicable performance criteria have been met. We consider the compensation expense associated with these awards as a selected item impacting comparability as the dilutive impact of the outstanding awards is included in our diluted net income per unit calculation, as applicable, The portion of compensation expense associated with awards that will be settled in cash is not considered a selected item impacting comparability.

⁽⁶⁾ During the periods presented, there were fluctuations in the value of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar, resulting in the realization of foreign exchange gains and losses on the settlement of foreign currency transactions as well as the revaluation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency. These gains and losses are not integral to our core operating performance and were thus classified as a selected item impacting comparability.

⁽⁷⁾ Includes costs recognized during the period related to the Line 901 incident that occurred in May 2015, net of amounts we believe are probable of recovery from insurance.

⁽⁸⁾ Includes expenses associated with the Plains Oryx Permian Basin joint venture transaction, which closed on October 5, 2021, and the acquisition of Felix Midstream LLC in February 2020.

⁽⁹⁾ Includes net gains recognized in connection with the repurchase of our outstanding senior notes on the open market.

Many of these adjustments are also considered selected items impacting comparability when calculating consolidated non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted EBITDA. See the "Selected Items Impacting Comparability" table for additional discussion.

⁽⁵⁾ Reflects amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Plains Oryx Permian Basin LLC (from October 2021) and Red River Pipeline LLC.

⁽⁶⁾ During the fourth quarter of 2021, we modified our definition of Segment Adjusted EBITDA to exclude amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests. In connection with the Plains Oryx Permian Basin joint venture formation in October 2021, our CODM determined this modification resulted in amounts that were more meaningful to evaluate segment performance. Amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests for periods prior have been recast to reflect this modification.

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this release consist of forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from results or outcomes anticipated in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, the following:

• declines in global crude oil demand and crude oil prices (whether due to the COVID-19 pandemic, future pandemics or other factors) that correspondingly lead to a significant reduction of North American crude oil and natural gas liquids ("NGL") production (whether due to reduced producer cash flow to fund drilling activities or the inability of producers to access capital, or both, the unavailability of pipeline and/or storage capacity, the shutting-in of production by producers, government-mandated pro-ration orders, or other factors), which in turn could result in significant declines in the actual or expected volume of crude oil and NGL shipped, processed, purchased, stored, fractionated and/or gathered at or through the use of our assets and/or the reduction of commercial opportunities that might otherwise be available to us;
• the effects of competition and capacity overbuild in areas where we operate, including contract renewal risk and the risk of loss of business to other midstream operators who are willing or under pressure to aggressively reduce transportation rates in order to capture or preserve customers;
• negative societal sentiment regarding the hydrocarbon energy industry and the continued development and consumption of hydrocarbons, which could influence consumer preferences and governmental or regulatory actions that adversely impact our business;
• unanticipated changes in crude oil and NGL market structure, grade differentials and volatility (or lack thereof);
• general economic, market or business conditions in the United States and elsewhere (including the potential for a recession or significant slowdown in economic activity levels, the risk of persistently high inflation and continued supply chain issues, the impact of coronavirus variants on growth, and the timing, pace and extent of economic recovery) that impact demand for crude oil, drilling and production activities and therefore the demand for the midstream services we provide and commercial opportunities available to us;
• the impact of current and future laws, rulings, governmental regulations, executive orders, trade policies, accounting standards and statements, and related interpretations, including legislation, executive orders or regulatory initiatives that arise out of pandemic related concerns, that prohibit, restrict or regulate hydraulic fracturing or that prohibit the development of oil and gas resources and the related infrastructure on lands dedicated to or served by our pipelines;
• environmental liabilities or events that are not covered by an indemnity, insurance or existing reserves;
• loss of key personnel and inability to attract and retain new talent;
• fluctuations in refinery capacity in areas supplied by our mainlines and other factors affecting demand for various grades of crude oil and NGL and resulting changes in pricing conditions or transportation throughput requirements;
• the availability of, and our ability to consummate, divestitures, joint ventures, acquisitions or other strategic opportunities;
