Key Terms
class a convertible preferredfinancial
Class A convertible preferred is a type of preferred stock that typically pays fixed dividends, ranks ahead of common shares for dividend payments and claims on assets, and can be exchanged for a specified number of common shares under set conditions. Think of it like a coupon-bearing instrument that can be turned into regular shares: it offers steadier income and greater protection than common stock, while the option to convert provides upside potential and can affect common shareholders through dilution.
free cash flowfinancial
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
adjusted ebitdafinancial
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
leveragefinancial
Leverage is the use of borrowed money or other financial tools to try to amplify the returns from an investment, like using a crowbar to move a heavier rock than you could with your hands. It can boost gains when things go well but also magnifies losses and the chances of running into trouble if income or asset values fall, so investors watch leverage to judge both growth potential and financial risk.
credit metricsfinancial
Credit metrics are numerical measures that show how easily a company can pay its debts and handle interest costs, like ratios of debt to cash generation or interest coverage. They matter to investors because they signal the risk of default, the company’s ability to borrow cheaply, and how much financial flexibility it has — think of them as a company’s credit score and monthly bill checklist that lenders and investors use to judge safety.
webcasttechnical
A webcast is a live or recorded online event where people watch or listen to presentations, announcements, or performances through the internet. It’s like a TV broadcast but over the internet, allowing viewers from anywhere to tune in in real time or later. Webcasts are important because they let companies share information quickly and widely with audiences around the world.
master limited partnershipfinancial
A master limited partnership is a type of business structure that combines features of a corporation and a partnership, allowing it to raise money from investors while passing profits directly to them. Think of it as a shared ownership group that offers regular income, making it attractive to investors seeking steady cash flow. This structure is often used by companies involved in natural resources or energy, where consistent revenue is common.
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Genesis Energy, L.P. (NYSE: GEL) announced today that the Board of Directors of its general partner declared a quarterly cash distribution to be paid to Genesis common unit holders and Class A Convertible Preferred unit holders with respect to the quarter ended December 31, 2025. Each holder of common units will be paid a quarterly cash distribution of $0.18, or $0.72 on an annualized basis, for each common unit held of record. Each holder of preferred units will be paid a quarterly cash distribution of $0.9473, or $3.7892 on an annualized basis, for each preferred unit held of record. These quarterly distributions will be paid on Friday, February 13, 2026 to holders of record at the close of business on Friday, January 30, 2026.
Grant Sims, Chairman and CEO, commented “As expected, Genesis began generating free cash flow in the back half of 2025, and we anticipate that free cash flow will continue in 2026 and beyond. We deployed this cash, initially, to pay down debt in absolute terms. Combined with anticipated growth in Adjusted EBITDA, this should drive continued improvement in our leverage and credit metrics in future periods. We continue to evaluate the opportunistic purchase and/or redemption of our corporate preferred securities. Today’s distribution increase represents an approximate 9.1% increase over the distribution paid with respect to the fourth quarter of 2024 and is consistent with the “all of the above” free cash flow deployment strategy we have previously discussed. The Board will continue to evaluate all future distributions on a quarterly basis.”
Genesis will announce its earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 on Thursday, February 12, 2026, before the New York Stock Exchange opens for trading. Following the announcement, the partnership will host a conference call at 9:00 a.m. CST with analysts and investors to discuss its earnings. The call will be webcast live on the Internet and may be accessed through the “Investors” section of the partnership’s website at www.genesisenergy.com. A re-play of the webcast will be available following the conference call and may be accessed approximately one hour after completion of the call.
