GEI Gibson Energy Inc

Gibson Energy Inc. (TSX:GEI) ("Gibson" or the "Company") announced today its financial and operating results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024.

“We are pleased to announce record Infrastructure results for 2024, driven by a full year of contribution from Gateway," said Curtis Philippon, President & Chief Executive Officer. "Exiting the year, the quality and stability of our Infrastructure cash flows improved due to successful re-contracting efforts and record throughput at both Gateway and Edmonton. We also announced exciting growth capital projects at Gateway. I am pleased with the progress we are making on setting up the Gibson team, increasing our focus on the business, strengthening our growth pipeline and building a high-performance culture.”

Financial Highlights:

• Revenue of $11,780 million for the full year, including $2,358 million in the fourth quarter, relatively consistent year over year primarily due to higher sales volumes within the Marketing segment and the revenue contribution from the Gateway Terminal
• Infrastructure Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $601 million for the full year, including $147 million in the fourth quarter, a $107 million or 22% increase over full year 2023 primarily due to the full year contribution from the Gateway Terminal and an Edmonton tank, which were only partially offset by a reduction from the Hardisty Unit Train Facility and the impact of certain one-time items
• Marketing Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $63 million for the full year, including a $5 million loss in the fourth quarter, an $82 million or 57% decrease over full year 2023 principally due to significantly tighter crude oil differentials and crack spreads, and increased demand for Canadian heavy oil triggering steep backwardation and limited volatility, impacting storage, quality and time-based opportunities
• Adjusted EBITDA(1) on a consolidated basis of $610 million for the full year, including $130 million in the fourth quarter, a $20 million or 3% increase over full year 2023, due to the impact of unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments recorded in both periods and the factors noted above, partially offset by the add back of certain one-time items, and an increase in general and administrative expenses, net of executive transition and restructuring costs
• Net income of $152 million for the full year 2024, including a $6 million loss in the fourth quarter, a $62 million or 29% decrease over full year 2023 due to the impact of items noted above, higher general and administrative costs primarily due to executive transition and restructuring costs, the impact of the Gateway acquisition that resulted in higher finance costs, depreciation and amortization expenses, and an environmental remediation provision, partially offset by acquisition and integration costs in the prior year and a lower income tax expense
• Distributable Cash Flow(1) of $375 million for the full year, including $71 million in the fourth quarter, an $11 million or 3% decrease over full year 2023, primarily due to higher finance costs, partially offset by higher Adjusted EBITDA and lower lease payments
• Dividend Payout ratio(2) on a trailing twelve-month basis of 71%, which is at the low end of the 70% – 80% target range
• Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio(2) of 3.5x for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, which is at the high end of the 3.0x – 3.5x target range, compared to 3.7x for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023

Strategic Developments and Highlights:

• Appointed Curtis Philippon as the President and Chief Executive Officer, effective August 29, 2024
• Announced the extension of a long-term contract with an investment grade global E&P company at the Gateway Terminal and the sanction of a connection to the Cactus II Pipeline in July
• Refinanced $350 million 5.80% senior unsecured notes due 2026 with $350 million of 4.45% senior unsecured notes due in November 2031, resulting in annual cost savings of approximately $5 million
• Announced the extension of a long-term contract and the sanctioning of the dredging project at the Gateway Terminal in December which, along with the earlier announcements, will allow the Company to achieve its Gateway targets
• Placed in-service two new 435,000 barrel tanks under a long-term take-or-pay agreement with an investment grade customer at the Edmonton Terminal in December
• Achieved a new milestone, recording 8.8 million hours without a lost time injury for our employee and contract workforce
• Subsequent to the quarter, appointed Riley Hicks as the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective February 4, 2025
• Subsequent to the quarter, Gibson’s Board of Directors also approved a quarterly dividend of $0.43 per common share, an increase of $0.02 per common share or 5%, beginning with the dividend payable in April
