Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains various forward-looking statements and information that are based on NGL Energy Partners LP’s (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Partnership”) beliefs and those of our general partner (“GP”), as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to us. These forward-looking statements are identified as any statement that does not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Certain words in this Quarterly Report such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” and similar expressions and statements regarding our plans and objectives for future operations, identify forward-looking statements. Although we and our GP believe such forward-looking statements are reasonable, neither we nor our GP can assure they will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected. Among the key risk factors that may affect our consolidated financial position and results of operations are:
•the prices of crude oil, natural gas liquids, gasoline and energy prices generally;
•the general level of demand, and the availability of supply for crude oil, natural gas liquids and gasoline;
•the level of crude oil and natural gas drilling and production in areas where we have operations and facilities;
•the ability to obtain adequate supplies of products if an interruption in supply or transportation occurs and the availability of capacity to transport products to market areas;
•the effect of weather conditions on supply and demand for crude oil, natural gas liquids and gasoline;
•the effect of natural disasters, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados, lightning strikes, or other significant weather events;
•the availability of local, intrastate, and interstate transportation infrastructure with respect to our transportation services;
•the availability, price, and marketing of competing fuels;
•the effect of energy conservation efforts on product demand;
•energy efficiencies and technological trends;
•the issuance of executive orders, changes in applicable laws, regulations and policies, including tax, environmental, transportation, and employment regulations, or new interpretations by regulatory agencies concerning such laws and regulations and the effect of such laws, regulations and policies (now existing or in the future) on our business operations;
•the effect of executive orders and legislative and regulatory actions on hydraulic fracturing, water disposal and transportation, the treatment of flowback and produced water, seismic activity, and drilling and right-of-way access on federal and state lands;
•delays or restrictions in obtaining, utilizing or maintaining permits and/or rights-of-way by us or our customers;
•hazards or operating risks related to transporting and distributing petroleum products that may not be fully covered by insurance;
•the maturity of the crude oil and natural gas liquids industries and competition from other markets;
•loss of key personnel;
•the impact of competition on our operations, including our ability to renew contracts with key customers;
•the ability to maintain or increase the margins we realize for our services;
•the ability to renew leases for our leased equipment and storage facilities;
•inflation, interest rates, tariffs and general economic conditions (including recessions and other future disruptions and volatility in the global credit markets, as well as the impact of these events on customers and suppliers);
•the nonpayment, nonperformance or bankruptcy by our counterparties;
•the availability and cost of capital and our ability to access certain capital sources;
•a deterioration of the credit and capital markets;
1
•the ability to successfully identify and complete accretive organic growth projects;
•the costs and effects of legal and administrative proceedings;
•changes in general economic conditions, including market and macroeconomic disruptions resulting from global pandemics and related governmental responses, and international military conflicts (such as the war in Ukraine and conflicts in the Middle East);
•political pressure and influence of environmental groups upon policies and decisions related to the production, gathering, refining, processing, fractionation, transportation and sale of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids; and
•information technology risks including the risk from cyberattacks, cybersecurity breaches, and other disruptions to our information systems.
You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Except as may be required by state and federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. When considering forward-looking statements, please review the risks discussed under Part I, Item 1A–“Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1—Organization and Operations
NGL Energy Partners LP (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Partnership”) is a Delaware master limited partnership. NGL Energy Holdings LLC serves as our general partner (“GP”). At December 31, 2025, our operations included three segments:
•Our Water Solutions segment transports, treats, recycles and disposes of produced and flowback water generated from crude oil and natural gas production. We also sell produced water for reuse and recycle to our producer customers to be used in their crude oil exploration and production activities. As part of processing water, we aggregate and sell recovered crude oil, also known as skim oil. We also dispose of solids such as tank bottoms, drilling fluids and drilling muds and perform other ancillary services such as truck washouts. Our activities in this segment are underpinned by long-term, fixed fee contracts and acreage dedications, some of which contain minimum volume commitments with leading oil and gas companies including large, investment grade producer customers.
•Our Crude Oil Logistics segment purchases crude oil from producers and marketers and transports it to refineries or for resale at pipeline injection stations, storage terminals, barge loading facilities, rail facilities and other trade hubs, and provides storage, terminaling, and transportation services through its owned assets. Our activities in this segment are supported by certain long-term, fixed rate contracts with acreage dedications and which include minimum volume commitments on our storage tanks and owned and leased pipelines.
•Our Liquids Logistics segment conducts supply operations for natural gas liquids to commercial, retail and industrial customers across the United States and Canada. These operations are conducted through our five owned terminals, third-party storage and terminal facilities, access to nine common carrier pipelines and a fleet of leased railcars. We also provide services for marine exports of butane through our facility located in Chesapeake, Virginia and we also own a propane pipeline in Michigan. We attempt to reduce our exposure to price fluctuations by using back-to-back physical contracts and pre-sale agreements that allow us to lock in a margin on a percentage of our winter volumes. We also enter into financially settled derivative contracts as economic hedges of our physical inventory, physical sales and physical purchase contracts.
Discontinued Operations
Sale of Refined Products Business and Exiting Biodiesel Business
As of March 31, 2025, we completed winding down our biodiesel business.
On April 30, 2025, we sold our refined products business, including certain working capital items, to a third-party (see Note 15 for a further discussion).
The sale of our refined products business and winding down of our biodiesel business represent a strategic shift in our operations and will have a significant effect on our operations and financial results going forward. Accordingly, the results of operations and cash flows for our refined products and biodiesel businesses within our Liquids Logistics segment have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented and prior periods have been retrospectively adjusted in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. In addition, the assets and liabilities related to our refined products and biodiesel businesses were classified as either held for sale or discontinued operations within our December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets (see Note 16 for a further discussion).
Other Dispositions
Sale of Certain Investments in Unconsolidated Entities and Related Assets
On April 14, 2025, we sold certain investments in unconsolidated entities, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets to a third-party, which were classified as held for sale within our March 31, 2025 consolidated balance sheet (see Note 15 for a further discussion).
Sale of Certain Natural Gas Liquids Terminals and Most of Our Wholesale Propane Business
On April 30, 2025, we sold most of our wholesale propane business, 17 of our natural gas liquids terminals, our interest in an unconsolidated entity and working capital (“Wholesale Propane Disposition”) to a third-party (see Note 15 for a

further discussion). The assets and liabilities of this portion of our Liquids Logistics segment were classified as held for sale within our March 31, 2025 consolidated balance sheet (see Note 16 for a further discussion).
Sale of Certain Railcars
As of March 31, 2025, we entered into definitive agreements with third-parties to sell certain railcars, which have been classified as held for sale within our March 31, 2025 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet (see Note 15 for a further discussion).
Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our controlled subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments we do not control, but can exercise significant influence over, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. We also own an undivided interest in a crude oil pipeline, and include our proportionate share of assets, liabilities, and expenses related to this pipeline in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim consolidated financial information in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements exclude certain information and notes required by GAAP for complete annual consolidated financial statements. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that we consider necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, unless otherwise disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2025 was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on May 29, 2025.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report. Due to the seasonal nature of certain of our operations and other factors, the results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for future periods or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities reported at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses reported during the periods presented.
Critical accounting estimates we make in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, among others, determining the impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, useful lives and recoverability of property, plant and equipment and amortizable intangible assets, the fair value of derivative instruments, estimating certain revenues, the fair value of asset retirement obligations, the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in acquisitions, the recoverability of inventories, the collectability of accounts and notes receivable, the valuation of contingent consideration liabilities and accruals for environmental matters. Although we believe these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Our significant accounting policies are consistent with those disclosed in Note 2 of our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report.
Income Taxes
We qualify as a partnership for income tax purposes. As such, we generally do not pay federal income tax. Rather, each owner reports his or her share of our income or loss on his or her individual tax return. The aggregate difference in the
10
NGL ENERGY PARTNERS LP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
basis of our net assets for financial and tax reporting purposes cannot be readily determined, as we do not have access to information regarding each partner’s basis in the Partnership.
We have a corporate subsidiary with a deferred tax liability of $28.8 million and $29.9 million at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively, in connection with certain of our acquisitions, which is included within other noncurrent liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The deferred tax liability is the tax effected cumulative temporary difference between the GAAP basis and tax basis of the acquired assets within the corporation. For GAAP purposes, certain of the acquired assets will be depreciated and amortized over time which will lower the GAAP basis. The deferred tax benefit recorded during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 for the corporate subsidiary was $1.1 million with an effective tax rate of 21.0 %. The deferred tax benefit recorded during the nine months ended December 31, 2024 for the corporate subsidiaries was $6.6 million with an effective tax rate of 21.0 %.
We evaluate uncertain tax positions for recognition and measurement in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. To recognize a tax position, we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation, based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more likely than not threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We had no

Variable Interest Entities
We decide at the inception of each arrangement whether an entity in which an investment is made or in which we have other variable interests is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Generally, an entity is a VIE if: (1) the entity does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, (2) the entity’s investors lack any characteristics of a controlling financial interest or (3) the entity was established with non-substantive voting rights.
We consolidate VIEs when we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the party that both: (1) has the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that in either case could potentially be significant to the VIE. If we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we account for the investment or other variable interests in a VIE in accordance with applicable GAAP.
We have two aviation entities whereby we own a 90 % interest and members of our management own a 10 % interest. We executed guarantees for the benefit of the lender that obligate us for the payment and performance of the aviation entities with respect to the repayment of the loans. Since we guaranteed the payment of the outstanding loans, we have concluded that the aviation entities are VIEs because the equity is not sufficient to fund the aviation entities’ activities without additional subordinated financial support. We have the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the aviation entities and have benefits through our ownership interest. Therefore, we have concluded that we are the primary

beneficiary and will consolidate the aviation entities in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and will include the noncontrolling interests as redeemable noncontrolling interests as discussed below.
The following table summarizes the balances related to the VIEs that are consolidated in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at the dates indicated (excluding intercompany eliminations at the time of consolidation) as well as our equity in the VIEs:

Generally, the assets of the individual consolidated VIEs can be used only to settle liabilities of each respective individual consolidated VIE and the liabilities of the individual consolidated VIEs are liabilities for which creditors or beneficial interest holders do not have recourse to the general credit of the Partnership. In general, our maximum exposure to loss due to involvement with the VIEs is limited to the amount of capital investment in the VIEs, if any, or the potential obligation to perform on the guarantees of the outstanding loans.

Reclassifications
In addition to the reclassifications related to assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations discussed in Note 1, we have reclassified certain prior period financial statement information to be consistent with the classification methods
13
NGL ENERGY PARTNERS LP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
used in the current fiscal year. For the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2024, the income statement was revised to present revenues and cost of sales by product and service and other, compared to presenting revenues and cost of sales by segment in the December 31, 2024 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“December 31, 2024 Quarterly Report”). Also, for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2024, the elimination of intersegment sales is included in “Corporate and Other” as discussed in Note 10. These reclassifications did not impact previously reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, net income or cash flows.
It was determined that $7.3 million was incorrectly presented as Cost of Sales - Service and other instead of Cost of Sales - Product in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This amount has been properly presented as Cost of Sales - Product in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2025. As the amount is not considered material, it will be corrected when we present the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025 in our June 30, 2026 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Interim Reporting, which amends ASC 270 to provide clarity on the current interim reporting requirements. The ASU improves the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifying when that guidance is applicable, provides additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting periods and adds to ASC 270 a principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 (which is the Partnership’s fiscal year beginning April 1, 2028), and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on our financial statement disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which amends ASC 326-20 to provide a practical expedient for all entities when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from transactions accounted for under ASC 606. The practical expedient assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 (which is the Partnership’s fiscal year beginning April 1, 2026), and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively. We adopted this ASU beginning with the September 30, 2025 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The adoption of this ASU did not impact our financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which includes amendments requiring, among other things, disclosure of disaggregated information about specific categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions on the income statement. Additionally, the amendments require disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and an annual disclosure of the definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 (which is the Partnership’s fiscal year beginning April 1, 2027), and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 (which is the Partnership’s fiscal year beginning April 1, 2028), with early adoption permitted. The ASU may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on our financial statement disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The ASU is effective for the Partnership’s fiscal year beginning April 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be applied prospectively with retrospective application permitted. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on our financial statement disclosures.

ABL Facility
Total commitments under the ABL Facility are $475.0 million, which we reduced from $550.0 million effective June 12, 2025. The ABL Facility includes a $200.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. Availability under the ABL Facility is subject to a borrowing base that is determined by calculating the amount equal to the sum of our eligible cash, outstanding accounts receivable balances with investment and non-investment grade counterparties, certain inventory, including inventory on railcars and unsettled derivative contracts. These amounts are subject to certain percentage and dollar amount caps, as described within the ABL Facility. The borrowing base is calculated monthly pursuant to a borrowing base certificate we deliver to the administrative agent. Availability under the ABL Facility is based on the lower of the current borrowing base and the total commitments, less borrowings and outstanding letters of credit. At December 31, 2025, $92.0 million was outstanding under the ABL Facility, letters of credit outstanding were $58.4 million, and we had a borrowing base of $392.5 million. The ABL Facility is scheduled to mature at the earliest of (a) February 2, 2029 or (b) 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date in respect to any of our indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million or greater, subject to certain exceptions.
The ABL Facility is secured by a lien on substantially all of our assets, including among other things, a first priority lien on our accounts receivable, inventory, pledged deposit accounts, cash and cash equivalents and related assets and a second priority lien on all of our other assets.
18
NGL ENERGY PARTNERS LP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
At December 31, 2025, the borrowings under the ABL Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 7.29 % calculated as a SOFR rate of 3.73 % plus a margin of 3.10 % for SOFR borrowings and the prime rate of 6.75 % plus a margin of 2.00 % on the alternate base borrowings. On December 31, 2025, the interest rate in effect on letters of credit was 2.75 %.
The ABL Facility contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including financial reporting requirements and limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, sales of assets, distributions and other restricted payments, investments (including acquisitions) and transactions with affiliates. The ABL Facility contains, as the only financial covenant, a fixed charge coverage ratio that is tested based on the financial statements for the most recently ended fiscal quarter upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Cash Dominion Event (as defined in the ABL Facility). At December 31, 2025, no Cash Dominion Event had occurred.
Compliance
At December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants under the ABL Facility.
Term Loan B
The Term Loan B was issued at 99.25 % of par for gross proceeds of $694.8 million. The Term Loan B was issued pursuant to a credit agreement dated February 2, 2024 (“Term Loan Credit Agreement”). The Term Loan B matures on February 2, 2031 and will amortize in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1.0% of the original principal amount beginning with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, with the balance payable on maturity.
The Term Loan B is secured by first priority liens on substantially all of our assets other than our accounts receivable, inventory, pledged deposit accounts, cash and cash equivalents and related assets and second priority liens on our accounts receivable, inventory, pledged deposit accounts, cash and cash equivalents and related assets.
At December 31, 2025, the borrowings under the Term Loan B had an interest rate of SOFR of 3.72 % plus a margin of 3.50 %.
The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including financial reporting requirements and limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, sales of assets, distributions and other restricted payments, investments (including acquisitions) and transactions with affiliates. The Term Loan Credit Agreement requires that we maintain, on a quarterly basis, beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2024, a debt service coverage rate (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) of no less than 1.1 to 1.0. At December 31, 2025, our debt service coverage rate was approximately 2.60 to 1.0.
The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains other customary terms, events of default and covenants.
Compliance
At December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants under Term Loan B.
Senior Secured Notes
The 2029 Senior Secured Notes bear interest at 8.125 % and the 2032 Senior Secured Notes bear interest at 8.375 %. Interest on the 2029 Senior Secured Notes and 2032 Senior Secured Notes is payable on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year, which started on May 15, 2024. The 2029 Senior Secured Notes mature on February 15, 2029 and the 2032 Senior Secured Notes mature on February 15, 2032.

Note 7—Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Contingencies
We are party to various claims, legal actions, and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of our management, the ultimate resolution of these claims, legal actions, and complaints, after consideration of amounts accrued, insurance coverage, and other arrangements, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently uncertain, and estimates of our liabilities may change materially as circumstances develop.
Environmental Matters
At December 31, 2025, we have an environmental liability, measured on an undiscounted basis, of $1.3 million, which is recorded within accrued expenses and other payables in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Our operations are subject to extensive federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. Although we believe our operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, risks of additional costs and liabilities are inherent in our businesses, and there can be no assurance that we will not incur significant costs. Moreover, it is possible that other developments, such as increasingly stringent environmental laws, regulations and enforcement policies thereunder, and claims for damages to property or persons resulting from the operations, could result in substantial costs. Accordingly, we have adopted policies, practices, and procedures in the areas of pollution control, product safety, occupational health, and the handling, storage, use, and disposal of hazardous materials designed to prevent material environmental or other damage, and to limit the financial liability that could result from such events. However, some risk of environmental or other damage is inherent in our businesses.

(1) Relates to the sale of a certain saltwater disposal well within our Water Solutions segment.
In addition to the obligations described above, we may be obligated to remove facilities or perform other remediation upon retirement of certain other assets. However, the fair value of the asset retirement obligation cannot currently be reasonably estimated because the settlement dates are indeterminable. We will record an asset retirement obligation for these assets in the periods in which settlement dates are reasonably determinable.
Sales and Purchase Contracts
We have entered into product sales and purchase contracts for which we expect the parties to physically settle and deliver the inventory in future periods.

Note 8—Equity
Partnership Equity
The Partnership’s equity consists of a 0.1 % GP interest and a 99.9 % limited partner interest, which consists of common units. Our GP has the right, but not the obligation, to contribute a proportionate amount of capital to the Partnership to maintain its 0.1 % GP interest. Our GP is not required to guarantee or pay any of our debts and obligations. At December 31, 2025, we owned 8.69 % of our GP.

Common Unit Repurchase Program
On June 5, 2024, the board of directors of our GP authorized a common unit repurchase program, under which we may repurchase up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common units from time to time in the open market, including pursuant to a repurchase plan administrated in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, or in other privately negotiated transactions. This program does not have a fixed expiration date. The common unit repurchase program authorization does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of our common units.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded net gains of $16.9 million and net losses of $8.2 million, respectively, from our commodity derivatives to cost of sales-product in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. These amounts do not include net gains and losses from our commodity derivatives related to our refined products and biodiesel businesses, as these amounts have been classified within discontinued operations within our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations (see Note 16).
During the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded net gains of $0.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively, from our interest rate swaps to interest expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded net losses of $0.1 million and net gains of $2.0 million from our interest rate swaps to interest expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

NGL ENERGY PARTNERS LP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
Credit Risk
We have credit policies that we believe minimize our overall credit risk, including an evaluation of potential counterparties’ financial condition (including credit ratings), collateral requirements under certain circumstances, and the use of industry standard master netting agreements, which allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain transactions. At December 31, 2025, our primary counterparties were retailers, resellers, energy marketers, producers, refiners, and dealers. This concentration of counterparties may impact our overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, as the counterparties may be similarly affected by changes in economic, regulatory or other conditions. If a counterparty does not perform on a contract, we may not realize amounts that have been recorded in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognized in our net income.
Interest Rate Risk
Long-Term Debt
The ABL Facility is variable-rate debt with interest rates that are generally indexed to the prime rate or SOFR plus an applicable margin (see Note 6 for the current rates on the ABL Facility).
The Term Loan B is variable-rate debt with interest rates that are generally indexed to SOFR plus an applicable margin (see Note 6 for the current rates on the Term Loan B).
Interest Rate Swaps
In March and April 2024, we entered into two $200.0 million interest rate swaps to reduce the variability of cash outflows associated with our floating-rate, SOFR-based borrowings, including borrowings on the Term Loan B. Under these arrangements, we pay fixed interest rates of 4.32 % and 3.842 %, respectively, in exchange for SOFR-based variable interest through April 2026 and April 2028, respectively.
Preferred Unit Distributions
The current distribution rate for the Class B, Class C and Class D Preferred Units is a floating rate of the three-month CME Term SOFR plus a fixed spread (see Note 8 for the current distribution rates).
Fair Value of Fixed-Rate Notes
The following table provides fair value estimates of our fixed-rate notes at December 31, 2025 (in thousands):
| 2029 Senior Secured Notes | $ | |||||||
| 2032 Senior Secured Notes | $ | |||||||
For the 2029 Senior Secured Notes and 2032 Senior Secured Notes, the fair value estimates were developed based on publicly traded quotes and would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Note 10—Segments
Our operations are organized into three reportable segments: (i) Water Solutions, (ii) Crude Oil Logistics and (iii) Liquids Logistics. These segments have been identified based on the differing products and services, regulatory environment and the expertise required for these operations. Our Liquids Logistics reportable segment includes operating segments that have been aggregated based on the nature of the products and services provided. Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our chief executive officer. Adjusted EBITDA is reviewed by the CODM to evaluate performance and make business decisions. We define Adjusted EBITDA for Water Solutions as revenue minus operating and general and administrative expense, which excludes, accretion expense for asset retirement obligations (“Accretion Expense”) and legal and advisory costs associated with acquisitions and dispositions (“Acquisition Expense”), and plus or minus other reconciling items. We define Adjusted EBITDA for Crude Oil Logistics and Liquid Logistics as revenue minus cost of sales, which excludes unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments and plus or minus other reconciling segment items. The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for our three reportable segments is presented in the Reportable Segment Information tables below.

See Note 1 for a discussion of the products and services of our reportable segments. The remainder of our business operations is presented as “Corporate and Other” and consists of certain corporate expenses that are not allocated to the reportable segments and the amounts to eliminate intercompany or intersegment transactions. Intercompany or intersegment transactions are recorded based on prices negotiated between the segments. Intrasegment transaction eliminations are recorded within each reportable segment. All of the tables below do not include amounts related to our refined products and biodiesel businesses, as those amounts have been classified as discontinued operations within our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented (see Note 1).

Note 12—Revenue from Contracts with Customers
We recognize revenue for services and products under revenue contracts as our obligations to either perform services or deliver or sell products under the contracts are satisfied. Our revenue contracts in scope under ASC 606 primarily have a single performance obligation and we do not receive material amounts of non-cash consideration. Our costs to obtain or fulfill our revenue contracts were not material as of December 31, 2025.
The majority of our revenue agreements are in scope under ASC 606 and the remainder of our revenue comes from contracts that contain nonmonetary exchanges or leases in the scope of ASC 845 and ASC 842, respectively. See Note 10 for a detail of disaggregated revenue.

Note 14—Allowance for Current Expected Credit Losses
ASU 2016-13 requires that an allowance for expected credit losses be recognized for certain financial assets that reflects the current expected credit loss over the financial asset’s contractual life. The valuation allowance considers the risk of loss, even if remote, and considers past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. We adopted the practical expedient under ASU 2025-05 (see Note 2) that allows us to assume that the current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of our current accounts receivable and contract assets.
We are exposed to credit losses primarily through the sale of products and services and notes receivable from third-parties. A counterparty’s ability to pay is assessed through a credit process that considers the payment terms, the counterparty’s established credit rating or our assessment of the counterparty’s credit worthiness and other risks. We can require prepayment or collateral to mitigate credit risks.
We group our financial assets into pools of counterparties with similar risk characteristics for the purpose of determining the allowance for expected credit losses. Each reporting period, we assess whether a significant change in the risk of expected credit loss has occurred. Among the quantitative and qualitative factors considered in calculating our allowance for

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
expected credit losses are historical financial data, including write-offs and allowances, current conditions, industry risk and current credit ratings. Financial assets will be written off in whole, or in part, when practical recovery efforts have been exhausted and no reasonable expectation of recovery exists. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are recorded as an increase to the allowance for expected credit losses. We manage receivable pools using past due balances as a key credit quality indicator.
The following table summarizes changes in our allowance for expected credit losses for the period indicated:

The following is a discussion of NGL Energy Partners LP’s (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Partnership”) financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2025. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”), as well as Part II, Item 7–“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 (“Annual Report”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2025.
Recent Developments
Discontinued Operations
Sale of Refined Products Business and Exiting Biodiesel Business
As of March 31, 2025, we completed winding down our biodiesel business (see Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion).
39
On April 30, 2025, we sold our refined products business, including certain working capital items, to a third-party (see Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion).
The sale of our refined products business and winding down of our biodiesel business represent a strategic shift in our operations and will have a significant effect on our operations and financial results going forward. Accordingly, the results of operations and cash flows for our refined products and biodiesel businesses within our Liquids Logistics segment have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented and prior periods have been retrospectively adjusted in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (see Note 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion).
Other Dispositions
Sale of Certain Investments in Unconsolidated Entities and Related Assets
On April 14, 2025, we sold certain investments in unconsolidated entities, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets to a third-party (see Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion).

On April 30, 2025, we sold most of our wholesale propane business, 17 of our natural gas liquids terminals, our interest in an unconsolidated entity and working capital (“Wholesale Propane Disposition”) to a third-party (see Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion).
Sale of Certain Railcars
During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, we sold the remaining 203 railcars of our Crude Oil Logistics segment (see Note 15 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion).
Consolidated Results of Operations
How We Evaluate Our Operations
We use a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. Our consolidated financial metrics include operating income, income from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA. We evaluate segment operating results using operating income, Adjusted EBITDA and our operating metrics, which include various volume and rate statistics that are relevant for the respective segment. These operating metrics allow investors to analyze the various components of segment financial results in terms of volumes and rate/price. We use these metrics to analyze historical segment financial results and as the key inputs for forecasting and budgeting segment financial results. For additional information on our operating metrics, see the respective segment discussions below.

Changes in commodity prices and sales volumes affect both revenues and cost of sales in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and, therefore, the impact is largely offset between these line items.
Operating income increased $25.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily as a result of the following:
•Water Solutions – an increase of $32.8 million due primarily to higher water disposal revenues from an increase in produced water volumes processed and lower expenses mainly due to lower derivative losses, lower losses on disposal or impairment of assets and lower depreciation and amortization expense;
•Crude Oil Logistics – an increase of $1.6 million due primarily to increased volumes and derivative gains, partially offset by lower commodity prices and lower pipeline revenue due to the expiration of transportation contracts;
•Liquids Logistics – a decrease of $7.6 million due primarily to lower product margins for propane, due to the Wholesale Propane Disposition and butane, due to a weak blending market, partially offset by lower expenses due to the Wholesale Propane Disposition and derivative gains; and
•Corporate and Other – a decrease of $1.8 million due to increased legal expenses.
In addition to the items discussed above, other income was higher primarily due to gains on marketable securities, partially offset by lower equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities as we sold our equity method investments during fiscal year 2026 as well as higher interest expense (as discussed below).
Operating income increased $53.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily as a result of the following:
41
•Water Solutions – an increase of $52.9 million due primarily to higher water disposal revenues from an increase in produced water volumes processed and lower derivative losses, partially offset by increased expenses mainly due to losses on disposal or impairment of assets and higher depreciation and amortization expense;
•Crude Oil Logistics – a decrease of $18.4 million due primarily to lower pipeline revenue, as discussed above, and increased expenses due to a loss on the sale of assets, partially offset by increased revenues and volumes from higher production on acreage dedicated to us;
•Liquids Logistics – an increase of $24.3 million due primarily to lower expenses related to the Wholesale Propane Disposition, including a gain on the sale, partially offset by lower product margins, as discussed above; and
•Corporate and Other – a decrease of $5.7 million due primarily to increased legal expenses.
In addition to the items discussed above, interest expense was lower (as discussed below) and there were gains on marketable securities which were partially offset by a lower income tax benefit (see Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report), lower equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities as we sold our equity method investments during fiscal year 2026 and a loss from a legal dispute.
Other Items
Seismic Activity
The subsurface injection of produced water for disposal has been associated with induced seismic events in Texas and New Mexico. While these events have been of relatively low magnitude, industry and relevant state regulators are, nevertheless, taking proactive measures to attempt to prevent similar induced seismic events. More specifically, we are engaged in various collaborative industry efforts with other disposal operators and relevant state regulatory agencies, working to collect and review data, enhance understanding of regional fault systems, and ultimately develop and implement appropriate longer-term mitigation strategies. As part of this effort, we have implemented reductions in injected volumes at certain facilities, and where appropriate have temporarily shut-in facilities. To date, due to the capacity of our integrated system in the affected areas, the diverse locations of our disposal facilities, and the connectivity of our system, our ability to dispose of produced water has not been materially impacted by these actions, and with our unique positioning outside of the affected areas, we have the ability to grow our asset base.

In the table above, revenues from reimbursements from construction projects, booster operating fees and generator rentals and pipeline revenue are included in Other revenues, while in Note 10 the amounts are included in Water disposal service fees.
(2) Recycled water in the table above differs from the amount of Sale of Water reported in Note 10 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements, as the amounts in Note 10 are disaggregated by the performance obligations with type of contract and service provided and the timing of the transfer of goods and services, while the amount above is presented based on how management reviews performance. In Note 10, Sale of Water includes the sale of produced water, recycled water and brackish non-potable water, which in the table above, brackish non-potable water is included in Other revenues.
(3) See Adjusted EBITDA definition and reconciliation in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below.
(4) Total produced water barrels processed during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 282,525,872 and 241,343,277, respectively. These amounts do not include 2,943,504 barrels and 16,410,749 barrels for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to payments made by certain producers for committed volumes not delivered, as discussed further below. In addition, water pipeline revenue, which is included in Other Revenues, includes payments from a producer for 2,198,757 and 9,938,582 committed barrels not delivered during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
(5) Excluding payments made by certain producers for committed volumes not delivered, service fees for produced water processed ($/barrel) would have been $0.60/barrel and $0.60/barrel during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
43
Water Disposal Service Fee Revenues. The increase was due primarily to an increase in produced water volumes processed from contracted customers.
Recovered Crude Oil Revenues. The decrease was due primarily to lower realized crude oil prices received from the sale of skim oil barrels, partially offset by an increase in skim oil barrels sold due to more skim oil recovered from receiving more produced water.
Recycled Water Revenues. Revenue from recycled water includes the sale of produced water and recycled water for use in our customers’ completion activities. The increase was due primarily to higher recycled water volumes related to timing of water to be used in completions, partially offset by lower pricing for recycled water.
Other Revenues. Other revenues primarily include reimbursements from construction projects, booster operating fees and generator rentals, water pipeline revenues, solids disposal revenues and brackish non-potable water revenues. The increase was due primarily to higher reimbursements from construction projects and booster operating fees as well as higher water pipeline revenue, including payments from a producer for committed volumes not delivered, due to our expanded Lea County Express Pipeline system (“LEX II”) commencing operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The decrease was due primarily to lower costs incurred that will be reimbursed by producers for generator and fuel costs at various booster stations and lower recycling costs.
Operating and General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease was due primarily to lower incentive compensation expense and lower chemical expense due to purchasing fewer chemicals and using chemicals more efficiently, partially offset by higher utilities expense due to increased produced water volumes processed and higher royalty expense due to volumes related to the LEX II pipeline commencing operations and increased volumes at certain other saltwater disposal wells.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The decrease was due primarily to certain long-term assets being fully amortized, impaired or sold during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 and nine months ended December 31, 2025, partially offset by depreciation of newly developed facilities and infrastructure.
Loss on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded:
•a net loss of $5.7 million primarily related to writing down the net book value of certain saltwater disposal wells and capital projects due to abandonment and the retirement of certain other assets; and
•a net gain of less than $0.1 million primarily related to the sale of certain assets.
During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded:
•a net loss of $7.4 million primarily related to writing down the net book value of certain saltwater disposal wells and capital projects due to abandonment and the retirement of certain other assets;
•a loss of $3.4 million from the settlement of a dispute related to a force majeure event, which resulted in the plugging and abandoning of a disposal well in a prior period; and
•a gain of $0.2 million from insurance recoveries for certain saltwater disposal facilities and boosters damaged in a prior period.
Revaluation of Liabilities. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, there was a decrease in expense related to the write-off of a portion of our contingent consideration liability related to royalty agreements acquired as part of certain business combinations, as we no longer expect to make royalty payments for a certain saltwater disposal well that was plugged and abandoned.

(3) Cost and product margin per barrel excludes the impact of derivatives.
Crude Oil Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The increases in sales and cost of sales, excluding the impact of derivatives, were primarily due to higher production on acreage dedicated to us in the DJ Basin during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by lower commodity prices.
During the three months ended December 31, 2025, crude oil product margin increased compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024 due to higher crude oil barrels sold during the current quarter. Product margin per barrel decreased primarily due to lower price and quality differentials realized. There was also a decrease in commodity prices during the three months ended December 31, 2025, thus also contributing to a smaller margin per barrel for the quarter. Crude oil product margin calculations do not include gains and losses from derivatives that may offset the movement in the physical margin.
Crude Oil Transportation and Other Sales. The decrease was primarily due to lower pipeline revenue because of the expiration of certain transportation services contracts on third-party pipelines and lower rental revenue due to the sale of our railcars.
During the three months ended December 31, 2025, physical volumes on the Grand Mesa Pipeline averaged approximately 85,000 barrels per day, compared to approximately 61,000 barrels per day during the three months ended December 31, 2024. Higher contracted volumes were shipped on the Grand Mesa Pipeline due to higher production on acreage dedicated to us in the DJ Basin.
45
Operating and General and Administrative Expenses. Operating and general and administrative expenses during the three months ended December 31, 2025 were consistent with the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of railcars during the year ended March 31, 2025 and the nine months ended December 31, 2025.
Loss on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a loss of $0.2 million primarily due to disposal or retirement of certain assets.

Butane Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The decreases in sales and cost of sales, excluding the impact of derivatives, during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024 were primarily due to lower butane prices and volumes during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024.
Butane product margins, excluding the impact of derivatives, decreased during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024 due to a weak gasoline blending season in certain markets and higher-priced inventory was sold into a declining market.
Propane Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The decreases in sales and cost of sales, excluding the impact of derivatives, were due primarily to the Wholesale Propane Disposition.
Propane product margins, excluding the impact of derivatives, decreased during the three months ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to the Wholesale Propane Disposition.
Other Products Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives.

(4) Total produced water barrels processed during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 792,655,933 and 712,392,342, respectively. These amounts do not include 42,981,316 barrels and 35,804,097 barrels for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to payments made by certain producers for committed volumes not delivered, as discussed further below. In addition, water pipeline revenue, which is included in Other Revenues, includes payments from a producer for 19,804,902 and 9,938,582 committed barrels not delivered during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
50
(5) Excluding payments made by certain producers for committed volumes not delivered, service fees for produced water processed ($/barrel) would have been $0.61/barrel and $0.60/barrel during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Water Disposal Service Fee Revenues. The increase was due primarily to an increase in produced water volumes processed from contracted customers.
Recovered Crude Oil Revenues. The decrease was due primarily to lower realized crude oil prices received from the sale of skim oil barrels, partially offset by an increase in skim oil barrels sold due to more skim oil recovered from receiving more produced water.
Recycled Water Revenues. The increase was due primarily to higher recycled water volumes related to timing of water to be used in completions, partially offset by lower pricing for recycled water.
Other Revenues. The increase was due primarily to higher water pipeline revenue, including payments from a producer for committed volumes not delivered, due to our LEX II commencing operations during the three months ended December 31, 2024, as well as higher reimbursements from construction projects and booster operating fees.
Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The decrease was due primarily to lower costs incurred that will be reimbursed by producers for generator and fuel costs at various booster stations and lower recycling costs.
Operating and General and Administrative Expenses. The increase was due primarily to higher utilities expense due to increased produced water volumes processed and higher royalty expense due to volumes related to the LEX II pipeline commencing operations and increased volumes at certain other saltwater disposal wells, partially offset by lower incentive compensation expense and lower chemical expense due to purchasing fewer chemicals and using chemicals more efficiently.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The increase was due primarily to depreciation of newly developed facilities and infrastructure, partially offset by certain long-term assets being fully amortized, impaired or sold during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 and nine months ended December 31, 2025.
Loss on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded:
•a net loss of $16.6 million primarily related to writing down the net book value of certain saltwater disposal wells and capital projects due to abandonment and the retirement of certain other assets;
•a gain of $2.2 million from insurance recoveries for certain saltwater disposal facilities and boosters damaged in a prior period; and
•a net loss of $0.6 million primarily related to the sale of certain assets.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded:
•a net loss of $11.0 million primarily related to writing down the net book value of certain saltwater disposal wells and capital projects due to abandonment and the retirement of certain other assets;
•a net gain of $10.5 million primarily related to the sale of certain assets;
•a loss of $3.4 million from the settlement of a dispute related to a force majeure event, which resulted in the plugging and abandoning of a disposal well in a prior period; and
•a gain of $2.0 million from insurance recoveries for certain saltwater disposal facilities and boosters damaged in a prior period.
Revaluation of Liabilities. During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, there was a decrease in expense related to the write-off of a portion of our contingent consideration liability related to royalty agreements acquired as part of certain business combinations, as we no longer expect to make royalty payments for a certain saltwater disposal well that was plugged and abandoned.

(3) Cost and product margin per barrel excludes the impact of derivatives.
Crude Oil Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The increases in sales and cost of sales, excluding the impact of derivatives, were primarily due to higher production on acreage dedicated to us in the DJ Basin during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by lower commodity prices.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, crude oil product margin increased compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024 due to higher crude oil barrels sold during the current quarter. Product margin per barrel also increased due to a more significant decrease in commodity prices during the nine months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2025, thus contributing to a higher margin per barrel for the current period. Crude oil product margin calculations do not include gains and losses from derivatives that may offset the movement in the physical margin.
Crude Oil Transportation and Other Sales. The decrease was primarily due to lower pipeline revenue because of the expiration of certain transportation services contracts on third-party pipelines and lower rental revenue due to the sale of our railcars.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, physical volumes on the Grand Mesa Pipeline averaged approximately 71,000 barrels per day, compared to approximately 62,000 barrels per day during the nine months ended December 31, 2024. Higher contracted volumes were shipped on the Grand Mesa Pipeline due to higher production on acreage dedicated to us in the DJ Basin.
52
Operating and General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease was primarily due to lower incentive compensation expense accrued during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, and lower repairs and maintenance expense, partially offset by higher utilities expense on the Grand Mesa Pipeline from higher volumes flowing through the system during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of railcars during the year ended March 31, 2025 and the nine months ended December 31, 2025.
Loss (Gain) on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a loss from the sale of linefill held on third-party pipelines of $5.9 million, which includes a loss from derivatives of $1.8 million from hedging transactions relating to the sale of linefill barrels. We also recorded of loss of $0.3 million related to the retirement of certain assets. In addition, we recorded a gain of $2.0 million from the sale of railcars during the nine months ended December 31, 2025. During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a net gain of $0.4 million primarily due to a gain on the sale of certain assets.

Butane Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The decreases in sales and cost of sales, excluding the impact of derivatives, during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024 were primarily due to lower butane prices and volumes during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024.
Butane product margins, excluding the impact of derivatives, decreased during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024 due to a weak gasoline blending season in certain markets.
Propane Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The decreases in sales and cost of sales, excluding the impact of derivatives, were due primarily to the Wholesale Propane Disposition.
Propane product margins, excluding the impact of derivatives, decreased during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due the Wholesale Propane Disposition. In addition, margins were negatively impacted due to selling higher priced inventory into a declining market early in the current period.
Other Products Sales and Cost of Sales-Excluding Impact of Derivatives. The decreases in sales and cost of sales, excluding the impact of derivatives, were primarily due to decreased commodity prices during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by increased volumes.
Other products sales product margins, excluding the impact of derivatives, decreased during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to lower commodity prices and lower asphalt volumes and margins due to tighter supply.
Service Sales and Cost of Sales. The sales include storage, terminaling and transportation services income. Sales and cost of sales decreased during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 due to the Wholesale Propane Disposition and the expiration of a throughput agreement in the prior fiscal year.
Operating and General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024 was due to the Wholesale Propane Disposition.

Service Revenues. These revenues relate to billings to the noncontrolling interest holders for usage of the airplanes acquired in June and October 2024.
General and Administrative Expenses. The increase was primarily due to lower legal expenses in the prior year due primarily to a reimbursement of legal expenses related to a dispute associated with commercial activities and lower allocations of overhead expenses to the other business segments in the current year due to recent disposition transactions.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The increase during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 was due to depreciation of the two airplanes put into service during the year ended March 31, 2025.
(Gain) Loss on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a net loss of less than $0.1 million due to the write-off of information technology equipment.

The debt interest expense decreased $18.6 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to a lower weighted average daily balance on the ABL Facility and lower interest rates on the Term Loan B for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 compared to our outstanding debt instruments in the prior year period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we have provided the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be a substitute for those reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other entities, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to NGL Energy Partners LP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, revaluation of liabilities and other. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, income from continuing operations before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. We believe that EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our ability to make quarterly distributions to our unitholders and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our financial performance without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as we define them, may not be comparable to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures used by other entities.
For purposes of our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, we make a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is open, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, we reverse the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss and record a realized gain or loss.

Liquidity, Sources of Capital and Capital Resource Activities
General
Our principal sources of liquidity and capital resource requirements are cash flows from our operations, borrowings under our ABL Facility, issuing long-term notes, common and/or preferred units, loans from financial institutions, asset
60
securitizations or asset sales. We expect our primary cash outflows to be related to capital expenditures, interest, repayment of debt maturities and distributions.
We believe that our anticipated cash flows from operations and the borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs. Our borrowing needs vary during the year due in part to the seasonal nature of certain businesses within our Liquids Logistics segment. Our greatest working capital borrowing needs generally occur during the period of June through December, when we are building our natural gas liquids inventories in anticipation of the butane blending and propane heating seasons. Our working capital borrowing needs generally decline during the period of January through March, when the cash inflows from our Liquids Logistics segment are the greatest. In addition, our working capital borrowing needs vary with changes in commodity prices. A significant increase in commodity prices could drive up our working capital demands and limit our ability to continue to delever our balance sheet and restrict our financial flexibility. To protect our liquidity and leverage, we have in the past and may in the future enter into economic hedges that mitigate this exposure when we are building inventory. There were no open financial derivative contracts for the purpose of an economic hedge of our physical inventory volumes as of December 31, 2025.
Cash Management
We manage cash by utilizing a centralized cash management program that concentrates the cash assets of our operating subsidiaries in joint accounts for the purposes of providing financial flexibility and lowering the cost of borrowing, transaction costs and bank fees. Our centralized cash management program provides that funds in excess of the daily needs of our operating subsidiaries are concentrated, consolidated or otherwise made available for use within our consolidated group. All of our wholly-owned operating subsidiaries participate in this program. Under the cash management program, depending on whether a participating subsidiary has short-term cash surpluses or cash requirements, we provide cash to the subsidiary or the subsidiary provides cash to us.
Short-Term Liquidity
Our principal sources of short-term liquidity consist of cash flows from our operations and borrowings under the ABL Facility, which we believe will provide liquidity to operate our business, manage our working capital requirements and repay current maturities.
Total commitments under the ABL Facility are $475.0 million, subject to a borrowing base, and includes a sub-limit for letters of credit of $200.0 million. At December 31, 2025, $92.0 million was outstanding under the ABL Facility, letters of credit outstanding were $58.4 million and we had a borrowing base of $392.5 million. The ABL Facility is scheduled to mature at the earliest of (a) February 2, 2029 or (b) 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date in respect to any of our indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million or greater, subject to certain exceptions.
For additional information related to the ABL Facility, see Note 6 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
As of December 31, 2025, our current assets exceeded our current liabilities by approximately $74.6 million.
Long-Term Financing
We expect to fund our long-term financing requirements by issuing long-term notes, common units and/or preferred units, loans from financial institutions, asset securitizations or asset sales.
Senior Secured Notes
On February 2, 2024, we closed on our private offering of $900.0 million of 8.125% senior secured notes due 2029 (“2029 Senior Secured Notes”) that mature on February 15, 2029 and $1.3 billion of 8.375% senior secured notes due 2032 (“2032 Senior Secured Notes”) that mature on February 15, 2032. Interest on the 2029 Senior Secured Notes and 2032 Senior Secured Notes is payable on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year.
Term Loan B
On February 2, 2024, we entered into a new seven-year $700.0 million Term Loan B. The Term Loan B matures on February 2, 2031 and will amortize in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1.0% of the original principal amount, with the balance payable on maturity. The amount outstanding at December 31, 2025 is $687.8 million.

There were no acquisitions during the three months or nine months ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.
Capital expenditures for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 are expected to be approximately $220 million to $230 million.
Distributions Declared
On December 16, 2025, the board of directors of our GP declared a cash distribution for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 to the holders of the Class B Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (“Class B Preferred Units”), the Class C Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (“Class C Preferred Units”) and the 9.00% Class D Preferred Units (“Class D Preferred Units”). The total distribution of $24.9 million was made on January 15, 2026 to the holders of record at the close of trading on January 1, 2026.
The board of directors of our GP expects to evaluate the reinstatement of the common unit distributions in due course, taking into account a number of important factors, including our leverage, liquidity, the sustainability of cash flows, upcoming debt maturities, capital expenditures and the overall performance of our businesses.
For additional information related to the payment of distributions, see Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations primarily consist of purchase commitments, outstanding debt principal and interest obligations, lease obligations, asset retirement obligations and other commitments.
For a discussion of contractual obligations, see Note 6, Note 7 and Note 13 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Operating Activities-Continuing Operations. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 was due primarily to higher earnings from operations as well as fluctuations in working capital, particularly accounts receivable and accounts payable, due to higher crude oil volumes and lower crude oil prices, lower purchases and sales of natural gas liquids due to the Wholesale Propane Disposition and the timing of invoices and payments on construction projects. Also, on June 13, 2024, we paid LCT Capital, LLC (“LCT”) $63.3 million related to the legal judgment against us, of which $27.2 million represented interest and $0.1 million of costs awarded to LCT.
Environmental Legislation
See our Annual Report for a discussion of proposed environmental legislation and regulations that, if enacted, could result in increased compliance and operating costs. However, at this time we cannot predict the structure or outcome of any future legislation or regulations or the eventual cost we could incur in compliance.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements that are applicable to us, see Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires the selection and application of appropriate accounting principles to the relevant facts and circumstances of our operations and the use of estimates made by management. We have identified certain more critical judgment areas in the application of our accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our consolidated financial position and results of operations. The application of these accounting policies, which requires subjective or complex judgments regarding estimates and projected outcomes of
63
future events, and changes in these accounting policies, could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes in the critical accounting estimates previously disclosed in our Annual Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Long-Term Debt
A portion of our long-term debt is variable-rate debt. Changes in interest rates impact the interest payments of our variable-rate debt but generally do not impact the fair value of the liability. Conversely, changes in interest rates impact the fair value of our fixed-rate debt but do not impact its cash flows.
The ABL Facility is variable-rate debt with interest rates that are generally indexed to the prime rate or a secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin. At December 31, 2025, $92.0 million was outstanding under the ABL Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 7.29%. A change in interest rates of 0.125% would result in an increase or decrease of our annual interest expense of $0.1 million, based on borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2025.
The Term Loan B is variable-rate debt with interest rates that are generally indexed to SOFR plus an applicable margin. At December 31, 2025, $687.8 million was outstanding under the Term Loan B with an interest rate of SOFR of 3.72% plus a margin of 3.50%. A change in interest rates of 0.125% would result in an increase or decrease of our annual interest expense of $0.9 million, based on borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2025.
Interest Rate Swaps
In March and April 2024, we entered into two $200.0 million interest rate swaps to reduce the variability of cash outflows associated with our floating-rate, SOFR-based borrowings, including borrowings on the Term Loan B. An increase of 10% in the value of the underlying interest rate swaps would result in a net change in the fair value of our interest rate swaps of $0.3 million at December 31, 2025.
Preferred Unit Distributions
The current distribution rate for the Class B Preferred Units is the three-month CME Term SOFR interest rate plus a tenor spread adjustment of 0.26161% plus a spread of 7.213% (see Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion). A change in interest rates of 0.125% would result in an increase or decrease of our quarterly Class B Preferred Unit distribution of $0.1 million, based on the Class B Preferred Units outstanding at December 31, 2025.
The current distribution rate for the Class C Preferred Units is the three-month CME Term SOFR interest rate plus a spread of 7.384% (see Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion). A change in interest rates of 0.125% would result in an increase or decrease of our quarterly Class C Preferred Unit distribution of less than $0.1 million, based on the Class C Preferred Units outstanding at December 31, 2025.
The current distribution rate for the Class D Preferred Units is the three-month CME Term SOFR interest rate plus a spread of 7.00% (see Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion). A change in interest rates of 0.125% would result in an increase or decrease of our quarterly Class D Preferred Unit distribution of $0.2 million, based on the Class D Preferred Units outstanding at December 31, 2025.
Commodity Price Risk
Our operations are subject to certain business risks, including commodity price risk. Commodity price risk is the risk that the market value of crude oil or natural gas liquids will change, either favorably or unfavorably, in response to changing market conditions. Procedures and limits for managing commodity price risks are specified in our market risk policy. Open commodity positions and market price changes are monitored daily and are reported to senior management and to marketing operations personnel.
The crude oil and natural gas liquids industries are “margin-based” and “cost-plus” businesses in which our realized margins depend on the differential of sales prices over our supply costs. We have no control over market conditions. As a result, our profitability may be impacted by sudden and significant changes in the price of crude oil and natural gas liquids.
64
We engage in various types of forward contracts and financial derivative transactions to reduce the effect of price volatility on our product costs, to protect the value of our inventory positions, and to help ensure the availability of product during periods of short supply. We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio by purchasing volumes when we have a matching purchase commitment from our commercial, retail and industrial customers. We may experience net unbalanced positions from time to time. In addition to our ongoing policy to maintain a balanced position, for accounting purposes we are required, on an ongoing basis, to track and report the market value of our derivative portfolio.
Although we use financial derivative instruments to reduce the market price risk associated with forecasted transactions, we do not account for financial derivative transactions as hedges. All changes in the fair value of our physical contracts that do not qualify as normal purchases and normal sales and settlements (whether cash transactions or non-cash mark-to-market adjustments) are reported within cost of sales (for purchase contracts) in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, regardless of whether the contract is physically or financially settled, and within cash flows from operations in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
The following table summarizes the hypothetical impact on the December 31, 2025 fair value of our commodity derivatives of an increase of 10% in the value of the underlying commodity.
| Increase (Decrease) To Fair Value | |||||
| (in thousands) | |||||
| Crude oil (Water Solutions segment) | $ | 214 | |||
| Crude oil (Crude Oil Logistics segment) | $ | (2,051) | |||
| Propane (Liquids Logistics segment) | $ | (47) | |||
| Butane (Liquids Logistics segment) | $ | (886) | |||
| Other (Liquids Logistics segment) | $ | (15) | |||
Changes in commodity prices may also impact the volumes that we are able to transport, dispose, store and market, which also impact our cash flows.
Credit Risk
Our operations are also subject to credit risk, which is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. Procedures and limits for managing credit risk are specified in our credit policy. Credit risk is monitored daily and we believe we minimize exposure through the following:
•requiring certain customers to prepay or place deposits for our products and services;
•requiring certain customers to post letters of credit or other forms of surety;
•monitoring individual customer receivables relative to previously-approved credit limits;
•requiring certain customers to take delivery of their contracted volume ratably rather than allow them to take delivery at their discretion;
•entering into master netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain transactions;
•reviewing the receivable aging regularly to identify issues or trends that may develop; and
•requiring marketing personnel to manage their customers’ receivable position and suspend sales to customers that have not timely paid outstanding invoices.
At December 31, 2025, our primary counterparties were retailers, resellers, energy marketers, producers, refiners, and dealers.
Fair Value
We determine the fair value of our exchange traded derivative financial instruments utilizing publicly available prices, and for non-exchange traded derivative financial instruments, we utilize pricing models for similar instruments including publicly available prices and forward curves generated from a compilation of data gathered from third-parties.
65
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure the information required to be disclosed in our filings and submissions under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our GP, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We completed an evaluation under the supervision and with participation of our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our GP, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at December 31, 2025. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our GP have concluded that as of December 31, 2025, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
66
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. For information related to legal proceedings, see the discussion under the caption “Legal Contingencies” in Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A–“Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On June 5, 2024, the board of directors of our GP authorized a common unit repurchase program, under which we may repurchase up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common units from time to time in the open market, including pursuant to a repurchase plan administrated in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, or in other privately negotiated transactions. This program does not have a fixed expiration date. The common unit repurchase program authorization does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of our common units.
The following table summarizes our common unit repurchases during the three months ended December 31, 2025:
| Total Number of | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Common Units | Approximate Dollar Value | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Total Number of | Average Price | Purchased as Part | of Common Units | |||||||||||||||||||||||
