Insights

BIP reports 5% FFO growth, strategic asset recycling generating strong returns, and a value-focused $9B Colonial pipeline acquisition.

Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (BIP) delivered solid Q1 2025 financial results with Funds From Operations (FFO) of $646 million, representing a 5% increase from the prior year period. FFO per unit grew to $0.82 from $0.78 in Q1 2024. This growth occurred despite net income decreasing to $125 million from $170 million year-over-year, with the company attributing this decline to higher borrowing costs and mark-to-market losses on corporate hedging activities.

The company's diversified infrastructure portfolio demonstrated resilience through varied segment performance. Most impressive was the data segment, which saw a remarkable 50% year-over-year FFO increase to $102 million, driven by strong organic growth in data centers and strategic acquisitions. The utilities segment posted modest growth when normalized for currency impacts, while transport and midstream segments remained relatively stable despite some volume challenges.

BIP's capital recycling program is generating substantial value, securing $1.4 billion in sale proceeds during Q1. The company signed an agreement to exit its Australian container terminal operation at an impressive 18x EBITDA multiple, generating a 17% IRR and nearly 4x multiple of capital over nine years of ownership. This transaction exemplifies their strategy of selling mature assets at premium valuations.

Simultaneously, BIP is deploying capital into value-accretive acquisitions, most notably securing the $9 billion acquisition of Colonial, the largest refined products pipeline system in the U.S. BIP will invest $500 million of equity (15% of total equity) at an attractive 9x EBITDA multiple, demonstrating their ability to buy assets below replacement cost with strong cash generation potential.

The 6% increase in quarterly distribution to $0.43 per unit reflects management's confidence in the sustainability of their business model and growth strategy, even amid economic uncertainty.

BROOKFIELD, News, April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (Brookfield Infrastructure, BIP, or the Partnership) (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

“We delivered solid financial results during the quarter, underpinned by our strong balance sheet and growing cash flow that is highly contracted and indexed to inflation,” said Sam Pollock, Chief Executive Officer of Brookfield Infrastructure. “We expect to deliver strong performance through economic uncertainty and market cycles, with some of our best investment opportunities materializing during these types of periods.”

Brookfield Infrastructure reported net income of $125 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 compared to $170 million in the prior year. Current quarter results benefited from strong organic  growth within our businesses and realized gains on the sale of mature and de-risked assets. This result was partially offset by higher borrowing costs and mark to market losses on our corporate hedging activities, which contributed gains in the prior period.

Funds from operations (FFO) for the first quarter was $646 million, a 5% increase over the prior year period. The increase was driven by strong inflation indexation, higher revenues across our critical infrastructure networks, the commissioning of over $1.3 billion of new capital from our capital backlog and the contribution from tuck-in acquisitions completed in the last year. Results also benefited from increasing utilization at our midstream assets and strong new contracting within our data center business. These results were partially offset by the impact of foreign exchange, higher borrowing costs and the foregone income associated with our capital recycling initiatives completed last year.

Segment Performance

The following table presents FFO by segment:

Data 102   68 
Corporate (105)  (115)
FFO4$646  $615 
        

The utilities segment generated FFO of $192 million, slightly ahead of the prior year. FFO would have increased 13% year-over-year when normalized for currency impacts and capital recycling activities at our Brazilian regulated gas transmission business in the first quarter of last year. This reflects the inflationary benefits embedded within our portfolio and the contribution from $450 million of capital commissioned into rate base.

FFO for the transport segment was $288 million, compared to $302 million in the prior year period. After normalizing for the impact of foreign exchange, most notably the depreciation of the Brazilian real, results for the segment were in line with the prior period. Despite experiencing some volume contraction across our rail and ports businesses, the impact was largely offset by record utilization levels at our global intermodal logistics operation, as well as higher volumes and rates at our toll roads of 6% and 4%, respectively.

Our midstream segment generated FFO of $169 million, which was 8% higher over the prior year period on a comparable basis when adjusting for the impact of capital recycling initiatives and foreign exchange. The growth reflects strong volumes and higher pricing across our midstream assets, particularly for marketed products at our Canadian diversified midstream operation. We continue to see elevated activity levels across our networks more generally, which is driving strong asset utilization and new commercial opportunities.

The data segment generated FFO of $102 million, representing a step change increase of 50% compared to last year. The increase is attributable to strong organic growth within our data center platforms and contribution from the tuck-in acquisition of a tower portfolio in India that closed in the third quarter of 2024.

Update on Strategic Initiatives

Market conditions to start the year were highly supportive of transaction activity. We secured $1.4 billion of sale proceeds, concluding five advanced sale processes totaling approximately $1.2 billion in proceeds net to BIP, as well as approximately $200 million from the sale of financial assets.

This month we signed an agreement to exit our Australian container terminal operation, which will result in proceeds of $1.2 billion (approximately $0.5 billion net to BIP). Following the take-private of the business in 2016, we hired a new management team who successfully ran the business through our nine-year ownership period. During this time the business more than doubled its EBITDA and is now the largest and lowest-cost container terminal operator in the Australian market. Reflecting the quality of the business, our exit multiple is approximately 18x EBITDA and we generated a strong IRR of 17% and a nearly 4x multiple of capital. Closing of the transaction is expected in the second half of the year, subject to customary closing conditions.

Also during the quarter, we completed the sale of a minority stake in a portfolio of fully contracted containers within our global intermodal logistics operation to a financial investor for $440 million (over $120 million net to BIP). This inaugural sale of de-risked and contracted assets provides a framework to replicate with buyers attracted to long-duration and stable cash flow.

We remain on track to close the remaining three asset sales later this year, which includes:

  • The final 25% interest in a U.S. gas pipeline generating net proceeds of $400 million to BIP. When combined with the previous financing, total proceeds from the sale were over $900 million and crystallized an attractive 18% IRR and a 3x multiple of capital on our investment since 2015. This transaction is expected to close in May.
  • A non-core data center site is on track to close in the second half of 2025, generating approximately $400 million in net proceeds (over $60 million net to BIP).
  • The initial 30% interest in a 244-megawatt portfolio of operating sites at our European hyperscale data center platform. We expect to generate over $90 million of net to BIP proceeds, with closing in Q3 2025. We are also progressing the sale of up to a 60% stake in the portfolio, which we hope to sign in the coming months and would add up to $190 million of proceeds at our share.

We are encouraged by the early results of our capital recycling program. Following the additional data center stake sale, we will have secured approximately $1.6 billion in proceeds so far this year.

At the same time, our new investments pipeline remains robust and we expect it will continue to grow, particularly if market uncertainty persists, unlocking greater investment opportunities for well-capitalized and value-based investors like ourselves. Most recently we secured the $9 billion acquisition of Colonial, which operates the largest refined products pipeline system in the U.S. that spans 5,500 miles between Texas and New York. This acquisition checks all the boxes with respect to our established energy investment criteria:

  • Strong utilization with a competitive market position: Colonial represents a rare opportunity to invest in a high-quality energy infrastructure asset that forms part of the backbone of the U.S. economy. The pipeline system has maintained consistently high utilization of almost 90% for the past 25 years and serves a diverse customer base of over 200 primarily investment-grade customers along the U.S. East Coast.
  • Acquire for value, generally well below replacement cost: We acquired Colonial at a transaction multiple of approximately 9x EBITDA. Simultaneously, we exited our U.S. natural gas pipeline at several turns higher.
  • Highly cash generative to provide a quick return of capital: Colonial has a mid-teen going-in cash yield that is expected to increase over time, resulting in a seven-year payback period for our invested capital.
  • Minimal value paid for growth or opportunity to transition the asset: The value we paid is largely for the in-place assets, with conservative assumptions around terminal value and utilization profile over time. The cash flow profile for this business is highly stable and resilient, supported by a transparent regulatory framework and direct inflation-linkage.

We believe we were successful in acquiring the business due to the large scale of the transaction, sellers’ confidence in our ability to close, and proven track record of operating critical energy infrastructure assets safely and reliably. BIP’s equity investment is expected to be $500 million, which represents approximately 15% of the total equity investment, alongside our institutional partners, with transaction closing expected in the second half of the year and subject to customary closing conditions.

  4. We define FFO as net income excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, mark-to-market gains (losses) and other income (expenses) that are not related to the revenue earning activities and are not normal, recurring cash operating expenses necessary for business operations. FFO includes balances attributable to the Partnership generated by investments in associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method and excludes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests based on the economic interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. We believe that FFO, when viewed in conjunction with our IFRS results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our underlying operations. FFO is a measure of operating performance that is not calculated in accordance with, and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. FFO is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is available on page 9 of this release. Readers are encouraged to consider both measures in assessing our company’s results.

  2. Other income corresponds to amounts that are not related to the revenue earning activities and are not normal, recurring cash operating expenses necessary for business operations. Other income/expenses excluded from FFO primarily includes gains on acquisitions and dispositions of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, gains or losses relating to foreign currency translation reclassified from accumulated comprehensive income to other expense, acquisition costs, gains/losses on remeasurement of borrowings, amortization of deferred financing costs, fair value remeasurement gains/losses, accretion expenses on deferred consideration or asset retirement obligations, impairment losses, and gains or losses on debt extinguishment.
  3. Amounts attributable to non-controlling interests are calculated based on the economic ownership interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. By adjusting FFO attributable to non-controlling interests, our partnership is able to remove the portion of FFO earned at non-wholly owned subsidiaries that are not attributable to our partnership.

Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation Reports First Quarter 2025 Results

The Board of Directors of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation (“BIPC” or our “company”) (NYSE, TSX: BIPC) today declared a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.43 per class A exchangeable subordinate voting share of BIPC (a “Share”), payable on June 30, 2025 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on May 30, 2025. This dividend is identical in amount per Share and has identical record and payment dates to the quarterly distribution announced today by Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (“BIP” or the “Partnership”) on its units.

The Shares of BIPC are structured with the intention of being economically equivalent to the non-voting limited partnership units of Brookfield Infrastructure Partnership L.P. (“BIP” or the “Partnership”) (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN). We believe economic equivalence is achieved through identical dividends and distributions on the Shares and BIP’s units and each Share being exchangeable at the option of the holder for one BIP unit at any time. Given the economic equivalence, we expect that the market price of the Shares will be significantly impacted by the market price of BIP’s units and the combined business performance of our company and BIP as a whole. In addition to carefully considering the disclosure made in this news release in its entirety, shareholders are strongly encouraged to carefully review BIP’s letter to unitholders, supplemental information and its other continuous disclosure filings. BIP’s letter to unitholders and supplemental information are available at https://bip.brookfield.com. Copies of the Partnership’s continuous disclosure filings are available electronically on EDGAR on the SEC’s website at https://sec.gov or on SEDAR+ at https://sedarplus.ca.

Results

The net income of BIPC is captured in the Partnership’s financial statements and results.

BIPC reported net income of $762 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to net income of $197 million in the prior year. After removing the impact of the revaluation on our own Shares that are classified as liabilities under IFRS and the impact of foreign exchange on loans with BIP denominated in Canadian dollars, underlying earnings were over 150% higher than the prior year. Current period results benefited from inflation-indexation across our businesses, capital commissioned into rate base at our U.K. regulated distribution business and a gain recognized on our global intermodal logistics operation’s sale of its 33% interest in a portfolio of fully contracted containers. These benefits were partially offset by higher financing costs particularly due to an increase in interest rates on our variable rate non-recourse borrowings in Brazil, as well as an increase in dividends paid on our exchangeable shares that are classified as interest expense, resulting from the 6% increase in our quarterly dividend compared to the prior year.
