  1. ABOUT PEMBINA

Pembina is a leading transportation and midstream service provider that has been serving North America's energy industry for more than 65 years. Pembina owns an integrated system of pipelines that transport various hydrocarbon liquids and natural gas products produced primarily in western Canada. The Company also owns gas gathering and processing facilities; an oil and natural gas liquids infrastructure and logistics business; and is growing an export terminals business. Pembina's integrated assets and commercial operations along the majority of the hydrocarbon value chain allow it to offer a full spectrum of midstream and marketing services to the energy sector. Pembina is committed to identifying additional opportunities to connect hydrocarbon production to new demand locations through the development of infrastructure that would extend Pembina's service offering even further along the hydrocarbon value chain. These new developments will contribute to ensuring that hydrocarbons produced in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin and the other basins where Pembina operates can reach the highest value markets throughout the world.

Purpose of Pembina:

To be the leader in delivering integrated infrastructure solutions connecting global markets;

•Customers choose us first for reliable and value-added services;

•Investors receive sustainable industry-leading total returns;

•Employees say we are the 'employer of choice' and value our safe, respectful, collaborative and fair work culture; and

•Communities welcome us and recognize the net positive impact of our social and environmental commitment.

Inter Pipeline Acquisition

On June 1, 2021, Pembina announced that it had entered into an arrangement agreement with Inter Pipeline Ltd. ("Inter Pipeline"), pursuant to which Pembina proposed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Inter Pipeline by way of a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the "Inter Pipeline Acquisition"). Pursuant to the Inter Pipeline Acquisition, holders of Inter Pipeline common shares (other than dissenting holders of Inter Pipeline common shares) would have received 0.5 of a common share of Pembina for each common share of Inter Pipeline that they owned. On July 25, 2021, the arrangement agreement was terminated and Pembina received the termination fee of $350 million.

Results Overview

Results in the second quarter of 2021 were positively impacted by higher gross profit in Marketing & New Ventures due to higher margins on NGL and crude oil sales, combined with higher marketed NGL volumes and lower losses on commodity related derivatives. Facilities gross profit increased due to strong performance from existing assets and Prince Rupert Terminal, Empress Infrastructure and Duvernay III being placed into service. Pipelines gross profit was impacted by revenues associated with higher interruptible volumes on the Peace Pipeline system, offset by a lower share of profit from Ruby combined with the impact of non-recurring leasing adjustments made in the second quarter of 2020 and the impact of a lower U.S. dollar exchange rate. General and administrative and other expenses increased due to lower income received from the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS") program, combined with higher long-term incentives and acquisition related costs. Net finance costs increased during the second quarter of 2021 due to losses on non-commodity related derivative financial instruments compared to gains recognized in the second quarter of 2020. Current tax expense decreased as a result of lower taxable income, combined with the reduction of the Alberta corporate tax rate from 10 to 8 percent effective July 2020.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 3

Changes in Results for the Three Months Ended June 30
Infrastructure and other services revenue ▲ $32 million increase, due to assets placed into service in Facilities, higher interruptible volumes in Pipelines, combined with increased operating expense recoveries, partially offset by fully recovered capital fees at the Edmonton South Rail Terminal during the second quarter of 2020 and the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates.
Product sales revenue ▲ $654 million increase ($69 million increase net of cost of goods sold), largely due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices, combined with higher marketed NGL volumes as sales have returned to pre-pandemic levels, partially offset by strong storage performance during the second quarter of 2020, compared to 2021 where storage is performing more consistently throughout the year.
Cost of goods sold ▼ $568 million increase, largely due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices, combined with higher marketed NGL volumes, as discussed above.
Operating expenses ▼ $32 million increase, largely due to additional assets being placed into service in Facilities, combined with a $27 million increase in power costs, of which $18 million were recovered in revenue, as a result of the higher power pool price during the second quarter of 2021.
Depreciation and amortization included in operations ▼ $15 million increase, primarily due to additional assets being placed into service during the second quarter of 2021.
Share of profit from equity accounted investees ▼ $14 million decrease, largely due to a lower contribution from Ruby, combined with the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates, partially offset by increased share of profit from Aux Sable as a result of higher NGL margins and a wider AECO-Chicago natural gas price differential.
Realized loss (gain) on commodity-related derivatives ▼ $69 million negative variance, due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices during the second quarter of 2021, which also drove higher margins on NGL and crude sales, resulting in a realized loss on crude- and NGL-based derivative financial instruments for the period, compared to realized gains recognized during the second quarter of 2020. Pembina utilizes derivative instruments to stabilize the results of its marketing business.
Unrealized (gain) loss on commodity-related derivatives ▲ $102 million positive variance, primarily due to fewer contracts maturing in the period and an unrealized gain on an embedded derivative in Facilities partially offset by the increase in the forward prices for NGL and crude oil during the second quarter of 2021.
General & administrative ▼ $20 million increase largely due to higher long-term incentives driven by Pembina's increasing share price in the second quarter of 2021 compared to a decreasing share price in the second quarter of 2020, partially offset by a reduction in salaries and wages.
Other expense ▼ $45 million increase primarily due to lower income received in connection with the CEWS program during the second quarter of 2021 and an increase in acquisition related costs.
Net finance costs ▼ $24 million increase, primarily driven by losses on non-commodity-related derivative financial instruments compared to gains in the second quarter of 2020, combined with higher interest expense associated with higher average debt levels, partially offset by higher foreign exchange gains.
Cash flow from operating activities ▼ $58 million decrease, primarily driven by a $55 million increase in taxes paid as the tax installments for 2020 were deferred until the third quarter of 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, $14 million increase in net interest paid, and a decrease in operating results after adjusting for non-cash items, partially offset by a $40 million change in non-cash working capital.
Adjusted cash flow from operating activities(1) ▼ $48 million decrease largely due to the same items impacting cash flow from operating activities, discussed above, net of the increase in taxes paid and change in non-cash working capital and an increase in accrued share based payment expense.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) ▼ $11 million decrease, largely due to an increase in realized loss on commodity-related derivatives, lower revenue at the Edmonton South Rail Terminal, the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates, strong storage performance during the second quarter of 2020, combined with higher general and administrative expenses and higher power costs not recoverable in revenue, partially offset by higher margins on NGL and crude oil sales, the contributions from assets placed into service in Facilities, combined with higher interruptible volumes on the Peace Pipeline system. Included in adjusted EBITDA is $174 million (2020: $168 million) related to equity accounted investees.
Total volumes (mboe/d)(2) ▲ 73 mboe/d increase, largely driven by higher interruptible volumes in Pipelines due to increased upstream activities. Revenue volumes include 321 mboe/d (2020: 323 mboe/d) related to equity accounted investees. ▲ Increase; ▼ Decrease; or ● No impact; to earnings, adjusted EBITDA, cash flow from operations, adjusted cash flow from operating activities or total volumes.

Results Overview

Results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were positively impacted by higher gross profit in Facilities due to new assets placed into service, as well as higher supply volumes at the Redwater Complex. In Marketing & New Ventures, higher margins on NGL and crude sales, combined with higher marketed NGL volumes, were offset by losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments. In Pipelines, higher interruptible volumes were offset by the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates and lower share of profit from Ruby. Net finance costs decreased during the first six months of 2021 due to foreign exchange gains compared to foreign exchange losses recognized during the first six months of 2020, as a result of hedge accounting adopted in the second quarter of 2020, combined with lower unrealized losses on U.S. dollar instruments and non-commodity related derivative financial instruments. General & administrative and other expenses increased due to higher long-term incentive costs, lower income received from the CEWS program, and higher transformation and restructuring related costs. Income tax expense decreased largely as a result of lower taxable income, combined with the reduction of the Alberta corporate tax rate from 10 to 8 percent which became effective in July 2020.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 5

Changes in Results for the Six Months Ended June 30
Infrastructure and other services revenue ▲ $29 million increase in revenue due to assets placed into service in Facilities and higher interruptible volumes and cost recoveries in Pipelines, combined with higher supply volumes and operating expense recoveries at the Redwater Complex, partially offset by fully recovered capital fees at the Edmonton South Rail Terminal and the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates.
Product sales revenue ▲ $1.0 billion increase ($203 million increase net of cost of goods sold), largely due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices, resulting in higher margins, combined with higher marketed NGL volumes as Pembina monetized a portion of its previously built up storage positions.
Cost of goods sold ▼ $808 million increase, largely due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices, combined with higher marketed NGL volumes as Pembina monetized a portion of previously built up storage positions.
Operating expenses ▼ $35 million increase, largely due to operating expenses associated with the additional assets being placed into service in Facilities, combined with a $40 million increase in power costs, of which $34 million were recovered in revenue, as a result of the higher power pool price during the first six months of 2021.
Depreciation and amortization included in operations ▼ $17 million increase, primarily due to additional assets being placed into service during the first six months of 2021.
Share of profit from equity accounted investees ▼ $27 million decrease, largely due to a lower contribution from Ruby, combined with the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates, partially offset by higher NGL margins and a wider AECO-Chicago natural gas price differential at Aux Sable.
Realized loss (gain) on commodity-related derivatives ▼ $174 million negative variance, due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices during the period, which also drove higher margins on NGL and crude sales, resulting in a realized loss on NGL- and crude oil-based derivative instruments for the period, compared to realized gains recognized during the first six months of 2020. Pembina utilizes derivative instruments to stabilize the results of its marketing business.
Unrealized loss (gain) on commodity-related derivatives ▼ $12 million negative variance, primarily due to the recovery in the forward prices for NGL and crude oil during the first six months of 2021, partially offset by contracts maturing in the period and the increase in the the AECO price during the period resulting in gains for certain gas processing fees tied to AECO prices.
General & administrative ▼ $46 million increase largely due to higher long-term incentives driven by Pembina's increasing share price in the first six months of 2021, partially offset by a reduction in salaries and wages.
Other expense ▼ $32 million increase in part due to lower income associated with CEWS and transformation and restructuring related costs during the first six months of 2021.
Net finance costs ▲ $80 million decrease, primarily driven by foreign exchange gains in the period compared to foreign exchange losses in the first six months of 2020 as a result of hedge accounting adopted in the second quarter of 2020, combined with lower unrealized losses on U.S. dollar instruments and non-commodity related derivative financial instruments, partially offset by higher interest expense associated with higher average debt levels.
Current tax expense ▲ $29 million decrease, primarily due to lower taxable income in the first six months of 2021, combined with the reduction of the Alberta corporate tax rate from 10 to 8 percent effective July 2020.
Deferred tax expense ▲ $14 million decrease, largely due to the release of final U.S. tax regulations in 2020, combined with the recovery on the impairment expense.
Cash flow from operating activities ▼ $12 million decrease, primarily driven by a $24 million increase in net interest paid, combined with a $23 million decrease in payments collected through contract liabilities, and a $12 million decrease in distributions from equity accounted investees, partially offset by the increase in operating results after adjusting for non-cash items.
Adjusted cash flow from operating activities(1) ▼ $42 million decrease, largely due to the same factors impacting cash flow from operating activities, discussed above, combined with $45 million higher accrued share-based payments, partially offset by $29 million lower current tax expense.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) ● Consistent with the prior period. Higher margins on NGL and crude oil sales, combined with new assets placed into service in Facilities and higher interruptible volumes on the Peace Pipeline system, were largely offset by an increase in realized loss on commodity-related derivatives, higher general and administrative expenses, discussed above, lower revenue at the Edmonton South Rail Terminal and the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates. Included in adjusted EBITDA is $358 million (2020: $347 million) related to equity accounted investees.

  1. SEGMENT RESULTS

Business Overview

The Pipelines Division provides customers with pipeline transportation, terminalling, storage and rail services in key market hubs in Canada and the United States for crude oil, condensate, natural gas liquids and natural gas. The division includes pipeline transportation capacity of approximately 3.1 mmboe/d(1) and above ground storage capacity of approximately 11 mmbbls(1) within its conventional, oil sands and heavy oil, and transmission assets. The conventional assets include strategically located pipelines and terminalling hubs that gather and transport light and medium crude oils, condensate and natural gas liquids from western Alberta and northeast British Columbia to the Edmonton, Alberta area for further processing or transportation on downstream pipelines. The oil sands and heavy oil assets transport heavy and synthetic crude oil produced within Alberta to the Edmonton area and offer associated storage, terminalling and rail services. The transmission assets transport natural gas, ethane and condensate throughout Canada and the United States on long haul pipelines linking various key market hubs. In addition, the Pipelines Division assets provide linkages between Pembina's upstream and downstream assets across North America, enabling integrated customer service offerings. Together, these assets supply product from hydrocarbon producing regions to refineries, fractionators and market hubs in Alberta, British Columbia, Illinois and California, as well as other regions throughout North America.

The Facilities Division includes infrastructure that provides Pembina's customers with natural gas, condensate and NGL services. Pembina's natural gas gathering and processing assets are strategically positioned in active, liquids-rich areas of the WCSB and Williston Basin and are integrated with the Company's other businesses. Pembina provides sweet and sour gas gathering, compression, condensate stabilization, and both shallow cut and deep cut gas processing services with a total capacity of approximately 6.1 bcf/d(2) for its customers. Condensate and NGL extracted at virtually all Canadian-based facilities have access to transportation on Pembina's pipelines. In addition, all NGL transported along the Alliance Pipeline are extracted through the Pembina-operated Channahon Facility at the terminus. The Facilities Division includes approximately 354 mbpd(2) of NGL fractionation capacity, 21 mmbbls(1) of cavern storage capacity, associated pipeline and rail terminalling facilities, and a liquefied propane export facility on Canada's West Coast. These facilities are fully integrated with the Company's other divisions, providing customers with the ability to access a comprehensive suite of services to enhance the value of their hydrocarbons. In addition, Pembina owns a bulk marine export terminal in Vancouver, British Columbia.

The Marketing & New Ventures Division strives to maximize the value of hydrocarbon liquids and natural gas originating in the basins where the Company operates. Pembina seeks to further enhance existing markets and create new markets, to support both the Company's and its customers' overall business interests. In particular, Pembina seeks to identify opportunities to connect hydrocarbon production to new demand locations through the development of infrastructure. Pembina strives to increase producer netbacks and product demand to improve the overall competitiveness of the basins where the Company operates. Within the Marketing & New Ventures Division, Pembina undertakes value-added commodity marketing activities including buying and selling products (natural gas, ethane, propane, butane, condensate and crude oil), commodity arbitrage, and optimizing storage opportunities. The marketing business enters into contracts for capacity on both Pembina's and third-party infrastructure, handles proprietary and customer volumes and aggregates production for onward sale.

--- --- ---
Conventional revenue(1) ▲ Increase largely due to higher interruptible volumes on the Peace Pipeline system as higher crude oil and NGL market prices have resulted in increased upstream activities, combined with higher recoverable costs.
Transmission revenue(1) ● Consistent with the prior period. Increased interruptible volumes on the Cochin Pipeline, were offset by lower interruptible volumes on the Vantage Pipeline as market conditions exist for end users to source their supply from the Redwater Complex, combined with the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates.
Oil Sands revenue(1) ▼ Decrease largely due to a $11 million adjustment associated with the Edmonton South Rail Terminal during the second quarter of 2020 as Pembina continued to finalize the identification of lessor leases acquired as part of the Kinder Acquisition, combined with lower capital recoveries.
Operating expenses(1) ▼ Increase largely due to a $17 million increase in power costs, of which $9 million was recovered in revenue, as a result of the higher power pool price during the second quarter of 2021, combined with increased integrity spending.
Share of profit from equity accounted investees ▼ Decrease largely due to lower contribution from Ruby as the owners have agreed to defer distributions for the second quarter of 2021, combined with the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates.
Distributions from equity accounted investees ▼ $60 million (2020: $57 million) from Alliance and no distributions (2020: $30 million) from Ruby. The reduction in distributions from Ruby is due to the same factors impacting share of profit from equity accounted investees discussed above.
Volumes (mboe/d)(3) ▲ Increase largely driven by higher interruptible volumes, discussed above, and higher seasonal volumes on the Alliance Pipeline, partially offset by lower volumes on the Ruby Pipeline due to contract expirations. Revenue volumes include 136 mboe/d (2020: 126 mboe/d) related to Alliance and 99 mboe/d (2020: 116 mboe/d) related to Ruby.

Conventional revenue(1) ▲ Increase largely due to higher interruptible volumes on the Peace Pipeline system as higher crude and NGL market prices have resulted in increased upstream activities during the first six months of 2021, combined with higher recoverable costs, partially offset by lower interruptible volumes on the Drayton Valley Pipeline.
Transmission revenue(1) ● Consistent with the prior period, as lower interruptible volumes on the Vantage Pipeline due to market conditions existing for end users to source their supply from the Redwater Complex, combined with the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates, were largely offset by higher interruptible volumes on the Cochin Pipeline.
Oil Sands revenue(1) ▼ Decrease largely due to fully recovered capital fees at the Edmonton South Rail Terminal, combined with uncontracted capacity at Alberta Crude Terminal in 2021.
Operating expenses(1) ▼ Increase largely due to a $20 million increase in power costs, of which $14 million was recovered in revenue, as a result of the higher power pool price during 2021, combined with increased integrity spending.
Share of profit from equity accounted investees ▼ Decrease largely due to lower contribution from Ruby as the owners agreed to defer distributions for the second quarter of 2021, combined with the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates, partially offset by an increased share of profit from Alliance due to higher seasonal volumes.
Distributions from equity accounted investees ▼ $115 million (2020: $113 million) from Alliance and $13 million (2020: $62 million) from Ruby. The reduction in distributions from Ruby is due to the same factors impacting share of profit from equity accounted investees discussed above.
Volumes (mboe/d)(3) ▲ Increase largely driven by higher interruptible volumes, discussed above, and higher seasonal volumes on the Alliance Pipeline, partially offset by lower interruptible volumes on the Drayton Valley Pipeline. Revenue volumes include 142 mboe/d (2020: 127 mboe/d) related to Alliance and 102 mboe/d (2020: 101 mboe/d) related to Ruby.
Adjusted EBITDA(2) ▼ Decrease primarily due to the impact of lower U.S. dollar exchange rates, lower oil sands revenue and lower contribution from Ruby, discussed above, combined with lower interruptible volumes on the Vantage Pipeline, and increased operating expenses due to higher integrity spending and higher power costs not recoverable in revenue, partially offset by higher interruptible volumes on the Peace Pipeline system. Included in adjusted EBITDA is $140 million (2020: $140 million) related to Alliance and $87 million (2020: $98 million) related to Ruby.

Projects & New Developments(1)

Pipelines continues to focus on the execution of various system expansions. The projects in the following table were recently placed into service.

Significant Projects In-service Date
NEBC Montney Infrastructure February 2021
Phase VI Expansion June 2020
Wapiti Condensate Lateral March 2020

During the second quarter of 2021, Pembina reactivated Phase IX Peace Pipeline Expansion, which will add capacity in the northwest Alberta-to-Gordondale, Alberta corridor to accommodate increased activity in the northeast British Columbia Montney play. The project has a revised estimated cost of approximately $120 million, which reflects the addition of a Wapiti-to-Kakwa corridor pump station offset by cost savings identified through value engineering.

In support of Phase IX Peace Pipeline Expansion and the potential reactivation of Phase VIII Peace Pipeline Expansion ("Phase VIII"), Pembina has entered into an exclusivity agreement with, and concurrently provided an irrevocable offer for, midstream services to a premiere NEBC Montney producer. The exclusivity agreement provides a bridge to negotiation of definitive agreements for transportation and fractionation ("T&F") of a material volume of liquids and NGL mix from certain NEBC Montney lands. Pembina and the producer will work together over the next few months to develop and execute definitive agreements by the end of 2021. All new firm T&F services provided under the proposed arrangement would be supported by long-term, take-or-pay agreements.

The following outlines the projects and new developments within Pipelines:

Phase VII Peace Pipeline Expansion
Capital Budget: $775 million In-service Date: First half of 2023 Status: On time, trending on budget
This expansion includes a new 20-inch, approximately 220 km pipeline and two new pump stations or terminal upgrades. Phase VII will add approximately 160 mbpd of incremental capacity upstream of Fox Creek, accessing capacity available on the mainlines downstream of Fox Creek. All major procurement activities were completed by end of the second quarter. Construction is underway and progressing according to schedule. Phase IX Peace Pipeline Expansion
--- --- ---
Capital Budget: $120 million In-service Date: Second half of 2022 Status: On time, trending on budget
This expansion will include new 6-inch and 16-inch pipelines debottlenecking the corridor north of Gordondale, Alberta as well as upgrades at one pump station. In addition, this expansion will see existing pipelines, which are currently batching, converted to single product lines. Phase IX also includes a pump station in the Wapiti-to-Kakwa corridor that is partially complete and was previously part of the Phase VII project scope.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 11

The previously announced Phase VIII Peace Pipeline Expansion remains deferred. Initial contracts supporting the project remain intact and customers continue to signal plans which will necessitate the incremental capacity. Prior to deferral, Phase VIII had an associated capital cost of approximately $500 million but Pembina expects this level of investment to decrease given cost and scope improvements. Value engineering work is ongoing, and Pembina continues to evaluate this project in discussions with its producing customers with a reactivation decision expected in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Phase VIII Peace Pipeline Expansion Status: Deferred
This expansion will include 10-inch and 16-inch pipelines in the Gordondale to La Glace corridor as well as six new pump stations or terminal upgrades located between Gordondale and Fox Creek.

Projects & New Developments(1)

Facilities continues to build-out its natural gas and NGL processing and fractionation assets to service customer demand. The projects in the following table were recently placed into service.

Significant Projects In-service Date
Vancouver Wharves Expansion May 2021
Prince Rupert Terminal March 2021
Duvernay III November 2020
Empress Infrastructure October 2020
Duvernay Sour Treatment Facilities March 2020
Veresen Midstream(2)
Hythe Developments March 2021

During the second quarter of 2021, Pembina placed Vancouver Wharves Expansion into service. The expansion added 200,000 barrels of additional refined product storage and enhancements to the railcar unloading capabilities. The expansion is supported by a 20-year, take-or-pay off-take agreement with an investment grade counterparty.

The following outlines the projects and new developments within Facilities:

Empress Co-generation Facility
Capital Budget: $120 million In-service Date: Fourth quarter of 2022 Status: Ahead of schedule, on budget
The Empress Co-generation Facility will use natural gas to generate up to 45 megawatts of electrical power, thereby reducing overall operating costs by providing power and heat to the existing Empress NGL Extraction Facility. All the power will be consumed on site, thereby supplying approximately 90 percent of the site's power requirements. Further, this project will contribute to annual greenhouse gas emission reductions at the Empress NGL Extraction Facility through the utilization of the co-generation waste heat and the low-emission power generated. Pembina anticipates a reduction of approximately 90,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per year based on the current energy demand of the Empress NGL Extraction Facility. Construction commenced in May 2021.

The Prince Rupert Terminal Expansion remains deferred. Engineering of the expansion is well advanced and Pembina expects to make a final investment decision in the first quarter of 2022.

Prince Rupert Terminal Expansion Status: Deferred
The Prince Rupert Terminal Expansion will increase the export capacity of the Prince Rupert Terminal.

--- --- ---
Net revenue(1)(2) ▲ Increase due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices, resulting in higher margins, combined with higher marketed NGL volumes, discussed below, partially offset by rail transportation costs to re-position propane to Corunna for sale in the fourth quarter of 2021 and first quarter of 2022, and charges related to the Prince Rupert Terminal and Empress Infrastructure. Additionally, the increase in net revenue was further offset by the timing of storage related margins, as the majority of 2020 storage margins were earned in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 2021 where storage margins are being realized evenly throughout the year.
Share of profit from equity accounted investees ▲ Increase largely due to higher revenues at Aux Sable as a result of higher NGL margins and a wider<br>AECO-Chicago natural gas price differential.
Realized loss (gain) on commodity-related derivatives ▼ Realized loss due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices during the second quarter of 2021, which also drove higher margins on NGL and crude oil sales, resulting in a realized loss on NGL- and crude oil-based derivative instruments for the period, compared to realized gains recognized during the second quarter of 2020. Pembina utilizes derivative instruments to stabilize the results of its marketing business.
Unrealized loss on commodity-related derivatives ▲ Lower unrealized loss on commodity-related derivatives primarily due to fewer contracts maturing in the period, partially offset by the increase in the forward prices for NGL and crude oil during the second quarter of 2021.
Distributions from equity accounted investees ▲ $18 million (2020: $2 million) from Aux Sable. Increase largely due to the higher margins at Aux Sable, discussed above.
Volumes (mboe/d)(3) ▲ Marketed NGL volumes increased as sales have returned to pre-pandemic levels compared to the second quarter of 2020 when Pembina built up storage positions due to lower commodity prices, combined with increased volumes at Aux Sable. Revenue volumes includes 36 mboe/d (2020: 32 mboe/d) related to Aux Sable.
Adjusted EBITDA(2) ● Consistent with the prior period. Higher margins on NGL and crude oil sales as a result of the higher NGL and crude oil prices during the second quarter of 2021 and higher marketed NGL volumes were largely offset by the timing of storage related margins in the second quarter of 2020, discussed above, and the realized loss on commodity-related derivatives due to higher NGL and crude oil market prices. Included in adjusted EBITDA is $14 million (2020: $4 million) related to Aux Sable.

Projects & New Developments(1)

Pembina's New Ventures group continues to advance business opportunities in petrochemicals, liquefied natural gas ("LNG") and low-carbon energy. New Ventures is focused on developing opportunities that integrate into Pembina's core businesses, while progressing projects that will extend Pembina's value-chain and benefit stakeholders. During the second quarter of 2021, Pembina announced a strategic partnership agreement with the Haisla First Nation to develop the proposed Cedar LNG Project, a floating LNG facility strategically positioned to leverage Canada's abundant natural gas supply and British Columbia's growing LNG infrastructure to produce industry-leading low‑carbon, low-cost Canadian LNG for overseas markets. The Cedar LNG Project will be the largest First Nation-owned infrastructure project in Canada and will have one of the cleanest environmental profiles in the world. In addition, during the quarter Pembina and TC Energy Corporation announced their intention to jointly develop the Alberta Carbon Grid, a world-scale carbon transportation and sequestration system, which will enable Alberta-based industries to effectively manage their greenhouse gas emissions, contribute positively to Alberta's lower-carbon economy and create sustainable long-term value for Pembina and TC Energy stakeholders.

Pembina currently anticipates its cash flow from operating activities, the majority of which is derived from fee-based contracts, will be more than sufficient to meet its operating obligations, to fund its dividend and to fund its capital investments in the short-term and long-term. Pembina expects to source funds required for debt maturities from cash, its credit facilities and by accessing the capital markets, as required. Based on its successful access to financing in the capital markets over the past several years, Pembina expects to continue to have access to additional funds as required. Refer to "Risk Factors – General Risk Factors – Additional Financing and Capital Resources" in Pembina's MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Note 27 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. Management continues to monitor the situation and remains satisfied that the leverage employed in Pembina's capital structure is sufficient and appropriate given the characteristics and operations of the underlying asset base.

Management may adjust Pembina's capital structure as a result of changes in economic conditions or the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or modify Pembina's capital structure in the future, Pembina may renegotiate debt terms, repay existing debt, seek new borrowings, issue additional equity or hybrid securities and/or repurchase common or preferred shares.

As at June 30, 2021, Pembina's credit facilities consisted of: an unsecured $2.5 billion (December 31, 2020: $2.5 billion) revolving credit facility, which includes a $750 million (December 31, 2020: $750 million) accordion feature and matures in June 2026; an unsecured $500 million (December 31, 2020: $500 million) non-revolving term loan, which matures in August 2022; an unsecured U.S. $250 million (December 31, 2020: U.S. $250 million) non-revolving term loan, which matures in May 2025; and an operating facility of $20 million (December 31, 2020: $20 million), which matures in May 2022 and is typically renewed on an annual basis (collectively, the "Credit Facilities"). There are no mandatory principal repayments due over the term of the Credit Facilities, with principal repayment not due until maturity. On March 25, 2021, Pembina cancelled its $800 million revolving credit facility, which was entered into in April 2020 to provide additional liquidity and flexibility in Pembina’s capital structure given market conditions at the time. No balance was outstanding on the cancellation date. Pembina is required to meet certain specific and customary affirmative and negative financial covenants under the indenture governing its medium-term notes and the agreements governing its Credit Facilities, including a requirement to maintain certain financial ratios. See "Liquidity & Capital Resources – Covenants" below for more information. Pembina is also subject to customary restrictions on its operations and activities under the indenture governing its medium-term notes and the agreements governing its Credit Facilities, including restrictions on the granting of security, incurring indebtedness and the sale of its assets.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 19

Financing Activity

On January 25, 2021, Pembina closed a $600 million offering of Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Hybrid Notes (the "Series 1 Subordinated Notes"). The Series 1 Subordinated Notes have a fixed 4.80 percent interest rate, payable semi-annually, which resets on January 25, 2031, and on every fifth anniversary thereafter, based on the five-year Government of Canada yield plus: (i) 4.17 percent for the period from, and including, January 25, 2031 to, but excluding January 25, 2051; and (ii) 4.92 percent for the period from, and including, January 25, 2051 to, but excluding January 25, 2081. Pembina used the net proceeds of the offering of the Series 1 Subordinated Notes to fund the redemption of its outstanding Cumulative Redeemable Minimum Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares, Series 11, its outstanding Cumulative Redeemable Minimum Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares, Series 13, to repay outstanding debt, as well as for general corporate purposes.

On April 30, 2021, Pembina completed an extension on its $2.5 billion revolving credit facility, which now matures on June 1, 2026.

Covenants

Pembina's financial covenants under the note indenture governing its medium-term notes and the agreements governing the Credit Facilities include the following:

Debt Instrument Financial Covenant(1) Ratio Ratio as at June 30, 2021
Senior unsecured medium-term notes Funded Debt to Capitalization Maximum 0.70 0.42
Credit Facilities Debt to Capital Maximum 0.70 0.43

(1)    Terms as defined in relevant agreements.

Pembina was in compliance with all covenants under the note indenture governing its medium-term notes and the agreements governing its Credit Facilities as at June 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020: in compliance).

Credit Risk

Pembina continues to actively monitor and reassess the creditworthiness of its counterparties. While the global economic slowdown has eased, the outlook for the global economic recovery remains uncertain and the potential for volatility in demand for crude oil and other commodities as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic could increase Pembina's counterparty risk, as uncertainty and the potential for volatility in the demand for crude oil could negatively impact the financial position of Pembina's customers and related parties and their access to credit, capital markets and other sources of liquidity. The majority of Pembina's credit exposure is to investment grade or split-investment grade counterparties. Pembina assesses all counterparties during the on-boarding process and actively monitors credit limits and exposure across the business. Financial assurances to mitigate and reduce risk may include guarantees, letters of credit and cash. Letters of credit totaling $104 million (December 31, 2020: $130 million) were held as at June 30, 2021, primarily in respect of customer trade receivables.

Credit Ratings

The following information with respect to Pembina's credit ratings is provided as such information relates to Pembina's financing costs and liquidity. Specifically, credit ratings affect Pembina's ability to obtain short-term and long-term financing and the cost of such financing. A reduction in the current ratings on Pembina's debt by its rating agencies, particularly a downgrade below investment-grade ratings, could adversely affect Pembina's cost of financing and its access to sources of liquidity and capital. In addition, changes in credit ratings and the associated costs may affect Pembina's ability to enter into normal course derivative or hedging transactions. Credit ratings are intended to provide investors with an independent measure of credit quality of any issues of securities. The credit ratings assigned by the rating agencies are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell the securities, nor do the credit ratings comment on the market price or suitability for a particular investor. Any credit rating may not remain in effect for a given period of time or may be revised or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant.

On April 28, 2021, DBRS Limited ("DBRS") upgraded its ratings for Pembina's senior unsecured medium-term notes to 'BBB (high)', to 'BBB (low)' for the Series 1 Subordinated Notes and to 'Pfd-3 (high)' for each issued series of Pembina's Class A Preferred Shares, other than the Class A Preferred Shares, Series 2021-A (the "Series 2021-A Class A Preferred Shares"), which are deliverable to the holders of the Series 1 Subordinated Notes following the occurrence of certain bankruptcy or insolvency events in respect of Pembina.

The long-term corporate credit rating assigned by S&P Global Ratings ("S&P") on Pembina is 'BBB'. S&P has also assigned a debt rating of 'BBB' to Pembina's senior unsecured medium-term notes, a debt rating of 'BB+' to the Series 1 Subordinated Notes, and a rating of 'P-3 (High)' to each issued series of Pembina's Class A Preferred Shares, other than the Series 2021-A Class A Preferred Shares. S&P affirmed Pembina's credit rating during the second quarter of 2021.

During the periods in the table above, Pembina's financial and operating results were impacted by the following factors and trends:

•Impairments recognized on Pembina's interests in Ruby, CKPC and the assets associated with Jordan Cove in the fourth quarter of 2020 and the partial impairment of Pembina's interest in Ruby in the fourth quarter of 2019;

•The Kinder Acquisition, which was completed on December 16, 2019;

•The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting decrease in demand for commodities starting in the second quarter of 2020, which led to a significant decline in global energy prices and a reduction in capital spending budgets by Pembina and its customers in 2020, and the subsequent recovery in demand for commodities and global energy prices in 2021;

•Volatility in the AECO-Chicago natural gas price differential, power pool prices and foreign exchange rates impacting operating results;

•Increased production in key operating areas and resource plays within the WCSB, including the Deep Basin, Montney and Duvernay formations, prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic;

•New large-scale growth projects across Pembina's business being placed into service;

•Volatility in commodity market prices impacting margins within the marketing business, partially mitigated through Pembina's risk management program;

•A decrease in the Alberta corporate tax rate from 12 to 8 percent;

•Higher net finance costs impacting earnings associated with debt related to financing acquisitions, growth projects, volatility in foreign exchange rates and volatility in Pembina's share price impacting incentive costs; and

•Increased common and preferred shares outstanding and corresponding dividends due to the Kinder Acquisition.

Pembina contracts capacity from Alliance and Veresen Midstream, its equity accounted investees, and advances funds to support operations and provides services, on a cost recovery basis, to equity accounted investees.

On January 6, 2021, Pembina advanced U.S. $8 million to Ruby Pipeline L.L.C., which was subsequently impaired.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, Pembina had no other transactions with "related parties" (as defined in IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures) except those pertaining to contributions to Pembina's defined benefit pension plan and remuneration of key management personnel and the Board of Directors of Pembina, in the ordinary course of their employment or directorship agreements, respectively.

Risk Management

Pembina's risk management strategies, policies and limits, ensure risks and exposures are aligned to its business strategy and risk tolerance. Pembina's Board of Directors is responsible for providing risk management oversight at Pembina and oversees how management monitors compliance with Pembina's risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of this risk framework in relation to the risks faced by Pembina.

Pembina's financial risks are consistent with those discussed in Note 27 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Pembina has exposure to counterparty credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. As at June 30, 2021, the Company has entered into certain financial derivative contracts in order to manage commodity price, foreign exchange and interest rate risk. These instruments are not used for trading or speculative purposes. For more information on Pembina's derivative instruments, refer to Note 13 to the Interim Financial Statements.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures ("DC&P") and Internal Control over Financial Reporting ("ICFR")

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Pembina's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, as those terms are defined in National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings. The objective of this instrument is to improve the quality, reliability and transparency of information that is filed or submitted under Canadian securities laws.

The President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer have designed, with the assistance of management, DC&P and ICFR to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to Pembina's business is made known to them, is reported on a timely basis, that financial reporting is reliable and that financial statements prepared for external purposes are in accordance with IFRS.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the second quarter of 2021 that had or are likely to have a material impact on Pembina's ICFR.

  1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES & ESTIMATES

Changes in Accounting Policies

The accounting policies used in preparing the Interim Financial Statements are described in Note 5 of Pembina's Consolidated Financial Statements. There were no new accounting standards or amendments to existing standards adopted in the first six months of 2021 that are expected to have a material impact on Pembina's financial statements.

Voluntary change in accounting policy

As detailed in Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, as at December 31, 2020, Pembina voluntarily changed its accounting policy for the measurement of decommissioning liabilities to utilize a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate instead of a risk-free interest rate to determine the present value of the liability at each statement of financial position date. This accounting policy change was applied retrospectively, including the restatement of certain comparative amounts in the Interim Financial Statements, as summarized below.

Critical Accounting Judgments & Estimates

Critical accounting judgments and estimates used in preparing the Interim Financial Statements are described in Note 2 of Pembina's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ending December 31, 2020. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make both judgments and estimates that could materially affect the amounts recognized in the financial statements. By their nature, judgments and estimates may change in light of new facts and circumstances in the internal and external environment. There have been no material changes to Pembina's critical accounting estimates and judgments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, including to the ongoing impact of significant uncertainties created by the COVID-19 pandemic, as discussed below.

Ongoing Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Following the World Health Organization declaring the COVID-19 outbreak to be a pandemic, many governments have imposed restrictions on individuals and businesses, resulting in a significant slowdown of the global economy. While there have been positive signals into the first six months of 2021 in commodity prices, demand recovery remains affected by the on-going COVID-19 pandemic. Although restrictions have been relaxed in certain jurisdictions and vaccination programs are underway, there remains significant uncertainty as to the global economic outlook and there remains the potential for volatility in the global economy as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Management considered these uncertainties when applying judgment to estimates and assumptions in the Interim Financial Statements.

30 Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021

  1. RISK FACTORS

Management has identified the primary risk factors that could potentially have a material impact on the financial results and operations of Pembina. With the exception of the risks noted below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors presented in Pembina's MD&A and AIF for the year ended December 31, 2020. Pembina's MD&A and AIF are available at www.sedar.com, www.sec.gov and through Pembina's website at www.pembina.com.

Ongoing Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

COVID-19 Related Impacts

Pembina's business and operations have been and may continue to be materially adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, including ongoing uncertainty with respect to the extent and duration of the pandemic. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and actions that have, and may be, taken by governmental authorities in response thereto has resulted, and may continue to result in, among other things: an overall slowdown in the global economy; a decrease in global energy demand; increased volatility in financial and commodity markets; disruptions to global supply chains; labour shortages; significant impacts to the workforce; reductions in trade volumes; temporary operational restrictions and restrictions on gatherings of individuals, as well as shelter-in-place declarations and quarantine orders; business closures and travel bans; political and economic instability; and civil unrest. The recent spread of new variants of the COVID-19 virus in certain geographic areas, including certain areas in which Pembina has operations, and the possibility that a resurgence of the COVID-19 virus or the spread of such new or potential future variants or mutations thereof may occur in other areas, may result in the re-imposition of certain of the foregoing restrictions or further restrictions by governmental authorities in certain jurisdictions, including certain jurisdictions in which Pembina has operations. This further increases the risk and uncertainty as to the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its ultimate impact on the global economy and other items noted above.

The risks to Pembina of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic include, among other things: risks to the health and safety of Pembina's employees; a slowdown or temporary suspension of operations in certain geographic locations in which Pembina operates; delays in the completion, or additional deferrals, of Pembina's growth and expansion projects; and supply chain disruptions, all or any of which could materially adversely impact Pembina's business operations and financial results.

The full extent and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be unknown at this time and the degree to which it may impact Pembina's business operations and financial results will depend on future developments, which cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty, including: the duration, severity and geographic spread of the COVID-19 virus and variants and mutations thereof, including in respect of the recent spread of new variants thereof in certain geographic areas, including certain areas in which Pembina operates; further actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, including in respect of travel restrictions and business disruptions; the effectiveness and timing of actions taken to contain and treat the COVID-19 virus and variants and mutations thereof, including the vaccines developed in response thereto; and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions will resume.

Impact on General Risks

Depending on the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in Pembina's other disclosure documents, including Pembina's MD&A and AIF for the year ended December 31, 2020, such as risks relating to Pembina's exposure to commodity prices; the successful completion of Pembina's growth and expansion projects, including the expected return on investment thereof; Pembina's ability to maintain its credit ratings; restricted access to capital and increased borrowing costs; Pembina's ability to pay dividends and service obligations under its debt securities and other debt obligations; and otherwise complying with the covenants contained in the agreements that govern Pembina's existing indebtedness.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 31

  1. NON-GAAP MEASURES

Throughout this MD&A, Pembina has used financial measures that are not defined by GAAP but are used by management to evaluate the performance of Pembina and its businesses. Since non-GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, non-GAAP measures must be clearly defined, qualified and reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. These non-GAAP measures are calculated and disclosed on a consistent basis from period to period.

The intent of the non-GAAP measures used throughout this MD&A is to provide additional useful information with respect to Pembina's financial performance to investors and analysts, though the measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. The measures should not, therefore, be considered in isolation or used in substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other issuers may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently or use different non-GAAP measures.

Investors should be cautioned that net revenue, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per common share, adjusted cash flow from operating activities, cash flow from operating activities per common share, and adjusted cash flow from operating activities per common share should not be construed as alternatives to revenue, earnings, cash flow from operating activities, gross profit or other measures of financial results determined in accordance with GAAP as indicators of Pembina's performance.

Non-GAAP Proportionate Consolidation of Investments in Equity Accounted Investees Results

In accordance with IFRS, Pembina's jointly controlled investments are accounted for using equity accounting. Under equity accounting, the assets and liabilities of the investment are presented net in a single line item in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, "Investments in Equity Accounted Investees". Net earnings from investments in equity accounted investees are recognized in a single line item in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income "Share of Profit from Equity Accounted Investees". Cash contributions and distributions from investments in equity accounted investees represent Pembina's share paid and received in the period to and from the investments in equity accounted investees.

To assist in understanding and evaluating the performance of these investments, Pembina is supplementing the IFRS disclosure with non-GAAP proportionate consolidation of Pembina's interest in the investments in equity accounted investees. Pembina's proportionate interest in equity accounted investees has been included in adjusted EBITDA.

Net Revenue

Net revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure which is defined as total revenue less cost of goods sold including product purchases. Management believes that net revenue provides investors with a single measure to indicate the margin on sales before non-product operating expenses that is comparable between periods. Management utilizes net revenue to compare consecutive results in Marketing & New Ventures and Facilities, to aggregate revenue generated by each of the Company's divisions and to set comparable objectives.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("adjusted EBITDA")

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated as earnings before net finance costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (included in operations and general and administrative expense) and unrealized gains or losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments. The exclusion of unrealized gains or losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments eliminates the non-cash impact of such gains or losses.

Adjusted EBITDA also includes adjustments to earnings for losses (gains) on disposal of assets, transaction costs incurred in respect of acquisitions, dispositions and restructuring, impairment charges or reversals in respect of goodwill, intangible assets, investments in equity accounted investees and property, plant and equipment, certain non-cash provisions and other amounts not reflective of ongoing operations. The adjustments made to earnings are also made to share of profit from investments in equity accounted investees. In addition, Pembina's proportionate share of results from investments in equity accounted investees with a preferred interest is presented in adjusted EBITDA as a 50 percent common interest. These additional adjustments are made to exclude various non-cash and other items that are not reflective of ongoing operations.

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors as it is an important indicator of an issuer's ability to generate liquidity through cash flow from operating activities and equity accounted investees. Management also believes that adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of operating income generated from capital invested, which includes operational finance income from lessor lease arrangements. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by investors and analysts for assessing financial performance and for the purpose of valuing an issuer, including calculating financial and leverage ratios. Management utilizes adjusted EBITDA to set objectives and as a key performance indicator of the Company's success. Pembina presents adjusted EBITDA as management believes it is a measure frequently used by analysts, investors and other stakeholders in evaluating the Company's financial performance.

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities, Cash Flow from Operating Activities per Common Share and Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities per Common Share

Adjusted cash flow from operating activities is a non-GAAP measure which is defined as cash flow from operating activities adjusting for the change in non-cash operating working capital, adjusting for current tax and share-based payment expenses, and deducting preferred share dividends paid. Adjusted cash flow from operating activities deducts preferred share dividends paid because they are not attributable to common shareholders. The calculation has been modified to include current tax and share-based payment expense as it allows management to better assess the obligations discussed below. Management believes that adjusted cash flow from operating activities provides comparable information to investors for assessing financial performance during each reporting period. Management utilizes adjusted cash flow from operating activities to set objectives and as a key performance indicator of the Company's ability to meet interest obligations, dividend payments and other commitments. Per common share amounts are calculated by dividing cash flow from operating activities, or adjusted cash flow from operating activities, as applicable, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

  1. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS & INFORMATION

In the interest of providing Pembina's security holders and potential investors with information regarding Pembina, including management's assessment of the Company's future plans and operations, certain statements contained in this MD&A constitute forward-looking statements or forward-looking information (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "anticipate", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "may", "will", "project", "should", "could", "would", "believe", "plan", "intend", "design", "target", "undertake", "view", "indicate", "maintain", "explore", "entail", "schedule", "objective", "strategy", "likely", "potential", "outlook", "aim", "purpose", "goal" and similar expressions suggesting future events or future performance.

By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Pembina believes the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this MD&A should not be unduly relied upon. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the MD&A.

In particular, this MD&A contains forward-looking statements pertaining to the following:

•future levels and sustainability of cash dividends that Pembina intends to pay to its shareholders and the dividend payment dates;

•the expected demand for, and prices and inventory levels of, crude oil and other petroleum products, including NGL;

•the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Pembina, and Pembina's response thereto; and

•the impact of current market conditions on Pembina.

Various factors or assumptions are typically applied by Pembina in drawing conclusions or making the forecasts, projections, predictions or estimations set out in forward-looking statements based on information currently available to Pembina. These factors and assumptions include, but are not limited to:

•oil and gas industry exploration and development activity levels and the geographic region of such activity;

•the ability of Pembina to maintain current credit ratings;

•the availability of capital to fund future capital requirements relating to existing assets and projects;

•expectations regarding Pembina's pension plan;

•future operating costs including geotechnical and integrity costs being consistent with historical costs;

•oil and gas industry compensation levels remaining consistent;

•in respect of current developments, expansions, planned capital expenditures, completion dates and capacity expectations: that third parties will provide any necessary support; that any third-party projects relating to growth projects will be sanctioned and completed as expected; that any required commercial agreements can be reached; that all required regulatory and environmental approvals can be obtained on the necessary terms in a timely manner; that counterparties will comply with contracts in a timely manner; that there are no unforeseen events preventing the performance of contracts or the completion of the relevant facilities, and that there are no unforeseen material costs relating to the facilities which are not recoverable from customers;

•in respect of the stability of Pembina's dividends: prevailing commodity prices, margins and exchange rates; that Pembina's future results of operations will be consistent with past performance and management expectations in relation thereto; the continued availability of capital at attractive prices to fund future capital requirements relating to existing assets and projects, including but not limited to future capital expenditures relating to expansion, upgrades and maintenance shutdowns; the success of growth projects; future operating costs; that counterparties to material agreements will continue to perform in a timely manner; that there are no unforeseen events preventing the performance of contracts; and that there are no unforeseen material construction or other costs related to current growth projects or current operations;

•prevailing regulatory, tax and environmental laws and regulations and tax pool utilization; and

•the amount of future liabilities relating to lawsuits and environmental incidents and the availability of coverage under Pembina's insurance policies (including in respect of Pembina's business interruption insurance policy).

The actual results of Pembina could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of the material risk factors set forth below:

•the regulatory environment and decisions and Indigenous and landowner consultation requirements;

•the impact of competitive entities and pricing;

•labour and material shortages;

•reliance on third parties to successfully operate and maintain certain assets;

•reliance on key relationships, joint venture partners, and agreements and the outcome of stakeholder engagement;

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  1. REPORTING ENTITY

Pembina Pipeline Corporation ("Pembina" or the "Company") is a Calgary-based, leading transportation and midstream service provider serving North America's energy industry. Pembina owns an integrated system of pipelines that transport various hydrocarbon liquids and natural gas products produced primarily in western Canada. Pembina also owns gas gathering and processing facilities and an oil and natural gas liquids infrastructure, storage and logistics business; and is growing an export terminals business. Pembina's integrated assets and commercial operations along the majority of the hydrocarbon value chain, allow it to offer a full spectrum of midstream and marketing services to the energy sector.

These condensed consolidated unaudited interim financial statements ("Interim Financial Statements") include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiary companies, partnerships and any investments in associates and joint arrangements as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. These Interim Financial Statements and the notes hereto have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The accounting policies applied are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and are consistent with the audited annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("Consolidated Financial Statements"), and should be read in conjunction with those Consolidated Financial Statements. The Interim Financial Statements were authorized for issue by Pembina's Board of Directors on August 5, 2021.

Certain insignificant comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current year.

Use of Estimates and Judgments

Management is required to make estimates and assumptions and use judgment in the application of accounting policies that could have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in the Interim Financial Statements. Actual results may differ from estimates and those differences may be material. By their nature, judgments and estimates may change in light of new facts and circumstances in the internal and external environment. There have been no material changes to Pembina's critical accounting estimates and judgments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, including to ongoing impact of significant uncertainties created by the coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, as discussed below.

Ongoing Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Following the World Health Organization declaring the COVID-19 outbreak to be a pandemic, many governments have imposed restrictions on individuals and businesses, resulting in a significant slowdown of the global economy. While there have been positive signals into the first six months of 2021 in commodity prices, demand recovery remains affected by the on-going COVID-19 pandemic. Although restrictions have been relaxed in certain jurisdictions and vaccination programs are underway, there remains significant uncertainty as to the global economic outlook and there remains the potential for volatility in the global economy as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Management considered these uncertainties when applying judgment to estimates and assumptions in the Interim Financial Statements.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 41

  1. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Voluntary change in accounting policy

As detailed in Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, as at December 31, 2020, Pembina voluntarily changed its accounting policy for the measurement of decommissioning liabilities to utilize a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate instead of a risk-free interest rate to determine the present value of the liability at each statement of financial position date. This accounting policy change was applied retrospectively, including the restatement of certain comparative amounts in the Interim Financial Statements, as summarized below.

  1. DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

A number of the Company's accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure based on the methods set out in the Consolidated Financial Statements. These methods have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these Interim Financial Statements.

Ongoing Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Measuring fair values using significant unobservable inputs has become more challenging in the current environment, where events and conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic are driving significant disruption of business operations and a significant increase in economic uncertainty. Management applied its judgment in determining the impact of the significant uncertainties created by these events and conditions on the assessed fair values of assets and liabilities in the Interim Financial Statements.

(2)    As at June 30, 2021, the balance includes $35 million of cash collected under take-or-pay contracts which will be recognized within one year as the customer chooses to ship, process, or otherwise forego the associated service.

Contract liabilities depict Pembina's obligation to perform services in the future for cash and non-cash consideration which has been received from customers. Contract liabilities include up-front payments or non-cash consideration received from customers for future transportation, processing and storage services. Contract liabilities also include consideration received from customers for take-or-pay commitments where the customer has a make-up right to ship or process future volumes under a firm contract. These amounts are non-refundable should the customer not use its make-up rights.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 49

Pembina does not have any contract assets. In all instances where goods or services have been transferred to a customer in advance of the receipt of customer consideration, Pembina's right to consideration is unconditional and has therefore been presented as a receivable.

  1. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS & RISK MANAGEMENT

Risk Management

Pembina's risk management strategies, policies and limits, ensure risks and exposures are aligned to its business strategy and risk tolerance. Pembina's Board of Directors is responsible for providing risk management oversight at Pembina and oversees how management monitors compliance with Pembina's risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of this risk framework in relation to the risks faced by Pembina.

Pembina's financial risks are consistent with those discussed in Note 27 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Pembina has exposure to counterparty credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. As at June 30, 2021, the Company has entered into certain financial derivative contracts in order to manage commodity price, foreign exchange and interest rate risk. These instruments are not used for trading or speculative purposes.

Fair Values

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities, together with the carrying amounts shown in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position, are shown in the table below. Certain non-derivative financial instruments measured at amortized cost including cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other, finance lease receivables, advances to related parties and trade payables and other have been excluded because they have carrying amounts that approximate their fair value due to the nature of the item or the short time to maturity. These instruments would be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Long-term debt(2) — 12,005 — 10,876 — 11,902 —

All values are in US Dollars.

(1)    The basis for determining fair value is disclosed in Note 3.

(2)    Carrying value of current and non-current balances. Includes loans and borrowings and subordinated hybrid notes.

(3)    At June 30, 2021 all derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value through earnings, except for $5 million in interest rate derivative financial assets that have been designated as cash flow hedges.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation Second Quarter 2021 53

Pembina's financial instruments classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using inputs that include quoted forward prices for commodities, time value and volatility factors, which can be substantially observed or corroborated in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange traded derivatives such as over-the-counter physical forwards and options, including those that have prices similar to quoted market prices. Pembina obtains quoted market prices for its inputs from information sources including banks, Bloomberg Terminals and Natural Gas Exchange.

Derivative instruments

Pembina enters into derivative instruments to hedge future cash flows associated with interest rate, commodity, and foreign exchange exposures. Derivatives are considered effective hedges to the extent that they offset the changes in value of the hedged item or transaction resulting from a specified risk factor. In some cases, even though the derivatives are considered to be effective economic hedges, they do not meet the specific criteria for hedge accounting treatment and are classified as held at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL").

The following table is a summary of the net derivative financial instruments, which is consistent with the gross balances:

June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020

(2)     Unrealized losses (gains) on derivatives in designated cash flow hedging relationships are recognized in the cash flow hedge reserve in accumulated other comprehensive income, with realized (gains) losses being reclassified to net finance costs. Refer to Note 12 for amounts reclassified. No (gains) losses have been recognized in net income relating to discontinued cash flow hedges.

Non-Derivative Instruments Designated as Net Investment Hedges

Pembina has designated certain U.S. dollar denominated debt as a hedge of the Company's net investment in U.S. dollar denominated subsidiaries and investments in equity accounted investees. The designated debt has been assessed as having no ineffectiveness as the U.S. dollar debt has an equal and opposite exposure to U.S. dollar fluctuations. As a result, all foreign exchange gains or losses on the debt are reported directly in other comprehensive income.

The following balances of U.S. dollar debt had been designated as hedges:

($ millions) June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Notional amount of U.S. debt designated (in U.S. dollars) 250 250

Purchase prices of both NGL and power are dependent on current market prices. Volumes and prices for NGL and power contracts cannot be reasonably determined, and therefore, an amount has not been included in the contractual obligations schedule. Product purchase agreements range from one to 9 years and involve the purchase of NGL products from producers. Assuming product is available, Pembina has secured between 12 and 138 mbpd of NGL each year up to and including 2029. Power purchase agreements range from one to 24 years and involve the purchase of power from electrical service providers. Pembina has secured up to 80 megawatts per day each year up to and including 2045.

(4) Excluding significant projects that are awaiting regulatory approval, projects which Pembina is not committed to construct, and projects that are executed by equity accounted investees.

Commitments to Equity Accounted Investees

Pembina has commitments to provide contributions to certain equity accounted investees based on annual budgets approved by the joint venture partners and contractual agreements.

Contingencies

Pembina, including its subsidiaries and its investments in equity accounted investees, are subject to various legal and regulatory and tax proceedings, actions and audits arising in the normal course of business. We represent our interests vigorously in all proceedings in which we are involved. Legal and administrative proceedings involving possible losses are inherently complex, and we apply significant judgment in estimating probable outcomes. Of most significance is a claim filed against Aux Sable by a counterparty to an NGL supply agreement. Aux Sable has filed Statements of Defense responding to the claim. While the final outcome of such actions and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, at this time management believes that the resolutions of such actions and proceedings will not have a material impact on Pembina's financial position or results of operations.

Letters of Credit

Pembina has provided letters of credit to various third parties in the normal course of conducting business. The letters of credit include financial guarantees to counterparties for product purchases and sales, transportation services, utilities, engineering and construction services. The letters of credit have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on Pembina's financial position, earnings, liquidity or capital resources. As at June 30, 2021, Pembina had $129 million (December 31, 2020: $91 million) in letters of credit issued.
