Key takeaways

What improved, and what deserves a closer read.

Constructive signals

  • Adjusted EBITDA of $132.3 million in Q1 2026, up from $123.2 million in Q1 2025, described as 'best first quarter results to date' despite ~$10 million Winter Storm Fern headwind
  • Reaffirmed 2026 EBITDA guidance of $520 million to $560 million; Q1 results came in despite weather impacts
  • Declared 53rd consecutive quarterly distribution increase to $1.13 per unit
  • Upsized and extended revolving credit facility to $1.3 billion maturing in 2031, increasing liquidity to ~$1.1 billion
  • Completed drilling of first AGI well at the Libby Complex, advancing the sour gas solution; gas utilization expected to reach capacity in the next three to six months
  • Storage and transportation adjusted EBITDA rose to $25 million from $14 million on the January 2026 related-party transaction, and pipeline JV EBITDA rose to $18 million from $17 million on strong Wink-to-Amster JV performance

Risks & pressure points

  • Net income fell to $32.4 million ($0.60 per unit) from $39.0 million ($0.73 per unit) in Q1 2025, primarily attributed to Winter Storm Fern impacts
  • Distributable cash flow, as adjusted, declined to $72.4 million from $75.1 million year-over-year
  • Wholesale Marketing and Terminalling adjusted EBITDA fell to $14 million from $18 million, primarily due to the impact of the 2024 amended consent agreement with Delek
  • Sargas gas system ramp-up has been slower than initial expectations
  • Leverage ratio of 4.05x remains above typical long-term targets, and DCF coverage ratio was ~1.2x
  • Q1 capital spending of ~$50 million includes $42 million of growth CapEx tied to AGI well and sour gas infrastructure, with full-year growth CapEx guided at $180–$190 million
