(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) All financial figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gibson energy Inc. (TSX:GEI) ("Gibson" or the "Company") announced today its financial and operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
"Gibson delivered strong results in the third quarter, driven by the continued strength and stability of our Infrastructure segment, which now represents over 85% of our business, and saw 2024 record third party crude volumes at our Edmonton Terminal in the third quarter, driven by deliveries onto the Trans Mountain Expansion pipeline," said Curtis Philippon, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Since joining Gibson in August, I have had the opportunity to visit all of our operations. Gibson's critical energy infrastructure spans from touching one in four barrels produced in Western Canada to exporting Permian & Eagle Ford barrels through one of the largest crude export terminals in the United States. It is impressive to see firsthand our asset base and meet the passionate talented teams that support it."
Financial Highlights:
Revenue of $2,900 million in the third quarter, a $325 million or 10% decrease relative to the third quarter of 2023, due to lower revenues within the Marketing segment driven by Crude Marketing sales volume Infrastructure adjusted EBITDA(1) of $150 million in the third quarter, a $10 million or 7% increase from the third quarter of 2023, primarily driven by a full quarter of contribution from the Gateway Terminal Marketing adjusted EBITDA(1) of $14 million in the third quarter, a $10 million or 41% decrease from the third quarter of 2023, due to lower contributions from the Refined Products business resulting from compressed refining margins and the Crude Marketing business due to fewer opportunities Adjusted EBITDA(1) on a consolidated basis of $151 million in the third quarter, a $2 million or 1% increase over the third quarter of 2023, as higher Infrastructure adjusted EBITDA(1) offset lower Marketing results Net income of $54 million in the third quarter, a $33 million or 161% increase over the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to one-time transaction and finance costs incurred in relation to the acquisition of the Gateway Terminal in the comparative period, and the factors noted above, partially offset by higher depreciation, amortization, income tax expense and foreign exchange losses Distributable cash flow(1) of $88 million in the third quarter, a $5 million or 5% decrease from the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher current income tax expense Dividend payout ratio(2) on a trailing twelve-month basis of 65%, below the Company's 70% – 80% target Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio(2) at September 30, 2024 of 3.2x, within the Company's 3.0x – 3.5x target
Strategic Developments and Highlights:
On July 15, 2024, Gibson announced the extension of a long-term contract with an investment grade global E&P company at its Gateway Terminal which further enhanced the quality of the Company's cash flows, as well as the sanction of a connection to the Cactus II Pipeline, providing customers with access to up to approximately 700,000 barrels per day of incremental supply
