Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), distributable cash flow ("DCF"), Operational distributable cash flow ("Operational DCF"), Adjusted cash flow from operations ("Adjusted CFFO"), total gross operating margin, and adjusted free cash flow ("Adjusted FCF") are non-generally accepted accounting principle ("non-GAAP") financial measures that are defined and reconciled later in this press release. As used in this press release, "NGL" means natural gas liquids, "LPG" means liquefied petroleum gas, "BPD" means barrels per day, "MBPD" means thousand barrels per day, "MMBPD" means million barrels per day, "MMcf/d" means million cubic feet per day, "Bcf/d" means billion cubic feet per day, "BBtus/d" means billion British thermal units per day, "TBtus/d" means trillion British thermal units per day, and "PDH" means propane dehydrogenation. "Enterprise reported strong volumes, earnings and cash flow for the second quarter of 2026," said A. J. "Jim" Teague, co-chief executive officer of Enterprise's general partner. "The partnership handled record pipeline and marine terminal volumes during the quarter due in part to strong international demand for U.S. energy in April and May. We also benefited from new assets and expansion projects that began operating and commissioning activities within the last twelve months including Frac 14 at our Mont Belvieu area complex and the expansions of our Neches River and Morgan's Point Terminals. Total pipeline equivalent volumes for the quarter increased 8 percent to 14.7 MMBPD compared to the second quarter of 2025 while total marine terminal equivalent volumes increased 33 percent to 2.8 MMBPD compared to the second quarter of last year. We also reported a 14 percent increase in propylene production volumes to a record 134 MBPD during the second quarter of 2026 as we achieved higher utilization rates at our propylene production facilities. While not a record, inlet volumes to our natural gas processing plants increased to 8.1 Bcf/d in the second quarter of 2026 primarily due to a 14 percent increase in volume to our natural gas processing plants in the Permian Basin. "This volume growth, an increase in the value of our equity NGL production and higher marketing volumes and margins led to record earnings and cash flow in the second quarter of 2026. Operational distributable cash flow for the quarter increased 21 percent to a record $2.3 billion compared to the second quarter of last year. This provided 1.9 times coverage of the partnership's cash distribution. In addition to $1.2 billion of cash distributions to unitholders, we retained $1.1 billion to apply to internally funded growth capital expenditures and buybacks," stated Teague. "I would like to congratulate our engineering and operations team for enabling Enterprise to respond to the acute global demand for U.S. energy by accelerating the completion of construction and beginning of commissioning activities for the expansion of our Neches River Terminal. Volumes at our marine terminals have returned to normal levels in June and July after the initial rush to backfill volumes affected by hostilities in the Middle East in April and May. Global shipping of energy, however, continues to be disrupted due to damage to production facilities and navigation restrictions in the Middle East, longer transits due to reroutes and the continuing uncertainty in the region," continued Teague. "During the quarter, we approved the construction of two new 300 MMcf/d gas processing plants located in the Permian Basin and a 150 MBPD NGL fractionator at our Mont Belvieu area complex. These assets support ongoing production growth in the Permian Basin and international demand for U.S NGLs. This brings the partnership's total organic growth projects under construction to $6.5 billion. The next major capital project scheduled for completion is our expansion of the LPG export marine terminal on the Houston Ship Channel that is expected to begin operations by year end 2026," concluded Teague.

The accompanying schedules provide definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flow provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as we do. Company Information and Use of Forward-Looking Statements Enterprise Products Partners L.P. is one of the largest publicly traded partnerships and a leading North American provider of midstream energy services to producers and consumers of natural gas, NGLs, crude oil, refined products and petrochemicals. Services include: natural gas gathering, treating, processing, transportation and storage; NGL transportation, fractionation, storage and marine terminals; crude oil gathering, transportation, storage and marine terminals; petrochemical and refined products transportation, storage and marine terminals; and a marine transportation business that operates on key U.S. inland and intracoastal waterway systems. The partnership's assets currently include more than 50,000 miles of pipelines; over 300 million barrels of storage capacity for NGLs, crude oil, petrochemicals and refined products; and 14 billion cubic feet of natural gas storage capacity. This press release includes forward-looking statements. Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this press release are forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties, such as the partnership's expectations regarding future results, capital expenditures, project completions, liquidity and financial market conditions. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, insufficient cash from operations, adverse market conditions, governmental regulations and other factors discussed in Enterprise's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results or outcomes may vary materially from those expected. The partnership disclaims any intention or obligation to update publicly or reverse such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The weighted-average indicative market price for NGLs (based on prices for such products at Mont Belvieu, Texas, which is the primary industry hub for domestic NGL production) was $0.68 per gallon during the second quarter of 2026 versus $0.58 per gallon during the second quarter of 2025. Fluctuations in our consolidated revenues and cost of sales amounts are explained in large part by changes in energy commodity prices. An increase in our consolidated marketing revenues due to higher energy commodity sales prices may not result in an increase in gross operating margin or cash available for distribution, since our consolidated cost of sales amounts would also be expected to increase due to comparable increases in the purchase prices of the underlying energy commodities. The same type of relationship would be true in the case of lower energy commodity sales prices and purchase costs.
