Brookfield Infrastructure Reports Strong First Quarter 2026 Results
This news release constitutes a “designated news release” for the purposes of the prospectus supplement dated November 19, 2025 to the short form base shelf prospectus of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation and Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. dated January 29, 2025
BROOKFIELD, NEWS, April 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (Brookfield Infrastructure, BIP, or the Partnership) (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
“Brookfield Infrastructure delivered strong results in the first quarter while continuing to advance a number of strategic initiatives across the business,” said Sam Pollock, Chief Executive Officer of Brookfield Infrastructure. “Our strategic partnerships with high-quality counterparties are increasingly an important driver of growth, expanding our opportunity set and reinforcing our position as a partner of choice for large-scale infrastructure investment.”
Overview
Brookfield Infrastructure generated funds from operations (FFO) per unit of $0.90, a 10% increase compared to the previous year. This was driven by strong base business results, with FFO from our data and midstream segments in particular increasing 46% and 12%, respectively, compared to Q1 2025. Results in our utilities and transport segments were also notable, reflecting resilient underlying performance, with the current period results reflecting higher levels of capital recycling activity achieved during 2025.
During the quarter, we executed on a number of strategic and capital allocation priorities. We secured approximately $400 million of new investment opportunities, including the launch of a new equipment leasing platform with an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and an additional project under our partnership with Bloom Energy. We have also made meaningful progress towards our 2026 capital recycling goal, with proceeds secured of $1 billion to date. This reinforces our ability to self-fund growth by monetizing mature assets at attractive valuations.

Brookfield Infrastructure reported a net loss of $61 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 compared to net income of $125 million in the prior year. Strong growth within our operations was achieved but, on a one-time basis, was offset by unrealized hedge losses in our midstream segment, driven by elevated commodity prices. As these hedges settle, we expect to benefit from higher commodity prices in our earnings as the year progresses.
FFO for the first quarter was $709 million, representing a 10% increase compared to the prior year. The increase reflects organic growth at the high end of our target range of 6% to 9%, driven by higher inflation-linked revenues, strong utilization in our midstream segment, and the commissioning of over $1.7 billion of projects from our capital backlog since Q1 2025. The increase also reflects the contribution from $1.4 billion of new investments completed over the last 12 months, offset by the foregone earnings from over $3.6 billion of asset sales completed over the same period.
Strategic Initiatives
We have had an active start to the year, with business development activity resulting in new strategic capital partnerships and continued progress under established frameworks. These partnerships are bilaterally sourced with high-quality counterparties, providing exclusive access to investment opportunities that require long-duration capital at scale. Increasingly, these frameworks are becoming a more meaningful avenue for growth, reinforcing Brookfield Infrastructure’s position as a partner of choice for the world’s leading companies and expanding our opportunity set to deploy large-scale capital at attractive risk-adjusted returns.
During the quarter, we established a new framework with a leading global investment-grade OEM, launching an exclusive leasing platform for large, mission-critical and long-lived industrial equipment. Through this platform, we will provide long-term leasing solutions that are expected to generate predictable cash flows without residual value, interest rate or refinancing risk. We will have the sole discretion to enter leases under the framework, which contemplates up to $1.5 billion of total equity deployment (BIP’s share – approximately $375 million).
Our $5 billion strategic partnership with Bloom Energy to install up to 1 GW of behind-the-meter power generation advanced further during the quarter, with the signing of an additional $430 million capex project, bringing total capex committed under the framework to approximately $1.6 billion. BIP’s total equity commitment associated with the framework to date is approximately $60 million. Given the success of the behind-the-meter solution, and strong customer demand for speed-to-market, we may have the ability to expand the platform in the coming months.
We also remain on track to close Clarus, New Zealand’s leading gas infrastructure utility, in Q2 2026 for an equity purchase price of approximately $270 million (BIP’s share – approximately $70 million).
Following last year’s record asset sales, we made excellent progress on achieving our 2026 target, securing nearly $1 billion of capital recycling proceeds to date. This includes closing the initial tranche of our partnership on a portfolio of stabilized and under-construction data centers in North America and closing the sale of the largest of four concessions within our Brazilian electricity transmission business. We also completed a secondary sale of a 12% interest in our North American gas storage business. Subsequent to quarter end, we signed an agreement to sell our bulk liquid storage business, the largest independent storage provider in Scandinavia.
Segment Performance
The following table presents FFO by segment:
| For the three months ended March 31 | |||||||
| US$ millions, unaudited1 | 2026 | 2025 | |||||
| FFO by segment | |||||||
| Utilities | $ | 201 | $ | 192 | |||

| Data | 149 | 102 | |||||
| Corporate | (114 | ) | (105 | ) | |||
| FFO4 | $ | 709 | $ | 646 | |||
The utilities segment generated FFO of $201 million, up 5% over the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by inflation indexation and the contribution from over $500 million of capital commissioned into rate base, along with the contribution from our recently acquired South Korean industrial gas business. The strong base business performance was partially offset by the loss of earnings from the sale of the largest of four concessions within our Brazilian electricity transmission operation and the sale of our Mexican regulated natural gas transmission pipelines in Q1 2025.
FFO for the transport segment was $283 million, compared to $288 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily attributable to the sales of our Australian export and container terminal operations, the sale of a 34% interest in our U.K. port operation, and the disposition of a 66% interest in a portfolio of fully contracted containers at our global intermodal logistics business. This was partially offset by the acquisition of our North American railcar leasing platform that closed on January 1. After adjusting for these factors, FFO was ahead of the prior year, reflecting higher volumes and tariffs generally across our rail and toll road businesses, partially offset by lower volumes at our Brazilian rail and port logistics business reflecting weather-related constraints during the quarter.
Our midstream segment generated FFO of $190 million, up 12% compared to the same period last year. The increase reflects attractive commodity pricing, strong asset utilization and robust customer activity levels across our portfolio. Results also benefited from the contribution of our recently acquired U.S. refined products pipeline system, partially offset by lost contribution from the sale of our U.S. gas pipeline in Q2 2025.
The data segment generated FFO of $149 million, representing a step change increase of 46% compared to the prior year. The increase was driven by the contribution from our U.S. bulk fiber network, which we acquired in Q3 2025, and organic growth across our data storage businesses, which included income generated by our global data center developers and the commissioning of over 200 MW of operating data centers into earnings over the last year.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
The first quarter experienced elevated market volatility, driven by geopolitical tensions and continued uncertainty around the direction of central bank policy. Despite this backdrop, our proactive approach to managing debt maturities, together with a disciplined financing strategy, allowed us to remain opportunistic in the capital markets. During the quarter, we refinanced approximately $1.5 billion of non-recourse debt on a net-to-BIP basis, with no incremental borrowing costs for the business. We also completed several financings at the asset level to fund contracted growth initiatives. Some notable transactions include:
- At our U.S. LNG export terminal, we opportunistically repriced a $2.2 billion term loan to reduce credit spreads by 25 basis points, saving $5 million annually and extending the average term to seven years.
- At our North American railcar leasing platform, we completed the inaugural issuance of $1 billion of investment grade bonds at attractive credit spreads to partially refinance the acquisition facility.
- At our U.S. hyperscale data center business, we successfully raised $830 million of investment grade asset-backed securities to fund contracted growth.
- At our global intermodal logistics operation, we issued $600 million of seven-year bonds in the investment grade market and $175 million of preferred shares to prefund near-term maturities, enhance balance sheet efficiency, and diversify the business’s capital sources.
Our balance sheet remains well capitalized, with liquidity at the end of the first quarter totaling $5.3 billion, of which $2.5 billion was at the corporate level. Our maturity profile remains well-laddered, with approximately 5% of our non-recourse debt maturing over the next 12 months and no corporate debt maturities until 2027.
During the first quarter, we issued 3 million BIPC shares under the at-the-market equity program, raising approximately $140 million. The proceeds were used to repurchase BIP units on a 1-for-1 basis. Since launching the program, we have raised approximately $180 million through the issuance of approximately 3.8 million shares.
BIP and BIPC Structure
At the direction of the Board, we have recently begun exploring whether a single combined corporate structure would be the best path forward. The goal is to determine if, on a tax-free basis, we can create a single corporate security that would enhance liquidity, increase index inclusion, and create value for our investors.
Distribution and Dividend Declaration
The Board of Directors of BIP declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.455 per unit, payable on June 30, 2026 to unitholders of record as at the close of business on May 29, 2026. This distribution represents a 6% increase compared to the prior year. The regular quarterly dividends on the Cumulative Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units, Series 9 and Series 11 have been declared, which will also be payable on June 30, 2026 to holders on May 29, 2026. The Series 13 and Series 14 regular quarterly dividends have also been declared and will be payable on June 15, 2026 to holders on May 29, 2026. In conjunction with the Partnership’s distribution declaration, the Board of Directors of BIPC has declared an equivalent quarterly dividend of $0.455 per share, also payable on June 30, 2026 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on May 29, 2026.

- Includes net income attributable to limited partners, the general partner, and non-controlling interests ‒ Redeemable Partnership Units held by Brookfield, Exchange LP units, BIPC exchangeable LP units and BIPC exchangeable shares and class A.2 exchangeable shares.
- Average number of limited partnership units outstanding on a time weighted average basis for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 of 459.8 million (2025: 461.9 million).
- We define FFO as net income excluding the impact of certain non-cash items including depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, mark-to-market gains (losses) and other income (expenses) that are not related to normal revenue earning activities or that are not normal, recurring cash operating expenses necessary for business operations. FFO is not adjusted for the income (loss) earned by data center developers which is generated through the development, commercialization, and sale of completed sites. The inclusion of this income reflects the operating performance of such investments and includes income (or losses) recognized in the current and prior periods. FFO also includes balances attributable to the Partnership generated by investments in associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method and excludes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests based on the economic interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. We believe that FFO, when viewed in conjunction with our IFRS results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our underlying operations. FFO is a measure of operating performance that is not calculated in accordance with, and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. FFO is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is available on page 11 of this release. Readers are encouraged to consider both measures in assessing our company’s results.
- Average number of partnership units outstanding on a fully diluted time weighted average basis for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 was 791.9 million (2025: 792.3 million).

- Other (income) expense corresponds to amounts that are not related to the revenue earning activities and are not normal, recurring cash operating expenses necessary for business operations. Other income/expenses excluded from FFO primarily includes gains on acquisitions and dispositions of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, gains or losses relating to foreign currency translation reclassified from accumulated comprehensive income to other expense, acquisition costs, gains/losses on remeasurement of borrowings, amortization of deferred financing costs, fair value remeasurement gains/losses, accretion expenses on deferred consideration or asset retirement obligations, impairment losses, and gains or losses on debt extinguishment.
- Amounts attributable to non-controlling interests are calculated based on the economic ownership interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. By adjusting FFO attributable to non-controlling interests, our partnership is able to remove the portion of FFO earned at non-wholly owned subsidiaries that are not attributable to our partnership.

The Statements of Funds from Operations per unit above are prepared on a basis that is consistent with the Partnership’s Supplemental Information and differs from net income per limited partnership unit as presented in Brookfield Infrastructure’s Consolidated Statements of Operating Results on page 9 of this release, which is prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management uses FFO per unit as a key measure to evaluate operating performance. Readers are encouraged to consider both measures in assessing Brookfield Infrastructure’s results.
Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation Reports Solid First Quarter 2026 Results
The Board of Directors of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation (“BIPC” or our “company”) (NYSE, TSX: BIPC) today declared a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.455 per class A exchangeable subordinate voting share of BIPC (a “Share”), payable on June 30, 2026 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on May 29, 2026. This dividend is identical in amount per Share and has identical record and payment dates to the quarterly distribution announced today by Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (“BIP” or the “Partnership”) (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN) on its units.
The Shares of BIPC are structured with the intention of being economically equivalent to the non-voting limited partnership units of BIP. We believe economic equivalence is achieved through identical dividends and distributions on the Shares and BIP’s units and each Share being exchangeable at the option of the holder for one BIP unit at any time. Given the economic equivalence, we expect that the market price of the Shares will be significantly impacted by the market price of BIP’s units and the combined business performance of our company and BIP as a whole. In addition to carefully considering the disclosure made in this news release in its entirety, shareholders are strongly encouraged to carefully review BIP’s supplemental information and its other continuous disclosure filings. BIP’s supplemental information is available at https://bip.brookfield.com. Copies of the Partnership’s continuous disclosure filings are available electronically on EDGAR on the SEC’s website at https://sec.gov or on SEDAR+ at https://sedarplus.ca.
Results
The net income of BIPC is captured in the Partnership’s financial statements and results.
BIPC reported net income of $36 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, compared to net income of $762 million in the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the impact of the revaluation on our own Shares that are classified as liabilities under IFRS and foreign exchange on loans with BIP denominated in Canadian dollars, in addition to gains recognized in the prior period from the partial sale of a portfolio of stabilized containers at our global intermodal logistics business. Current period results benefited from inflation-indexation across our businesses and capital commissioned into rate base at our U.K. regulated distribution business, which was largely offset by higher financing costs and an increase in dividends paid on our exchangeable shares that are classified as interest expense, resulting from a 6% increase in our quarterly dividend compared to the prior year.
