Energy Transfer reports that its July 2026 issuance of $650 million of Series 2026A and $1.10 billion of Series 2026B junior subordinated notes was completed. The issuance creates stated long-term debt obligations for the partnership, rather than an uncommitted financing capacity.

The notes are due in 2057; their initial annual interest rates are 6.550% and 6.700%, respectively. These terms specify ongoing interest obligations in addition to repayment of principal.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $5.07 billion"
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.
Distributable Cash Flow financial
"Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, for the three months ended"
Distributable cash flow is the amount of money a business generates from its operations that management considers available to pay dividends, buy back shares, or make other distributions to owners after setting aside what’s needed to keep the business running and meet routine obligations. Investors care because it shows how much real cash can be returned to them—like a household’s leftover paycheck after paying rent and groceries—and helps judge whether payouts are sustainable and backed by operations rather than accounting entries.
segment margin financial
"The following analysis of segment operating results includes a measure of segment margin"
Segment margin measures how much profit a particular business unit or division keeps from its own sales after the costs directly tied to that unit are taken out, usually expressed as a percentage of that unit’s revenue. Think of each division as a separate shop: segment margin shows which shops are making and keeping more money from their sales. Investors use it to compare divisions’ efficiency, spot stronger or weaker areas, and decide where growth or cuts might improve overall company returns.
maintenance capital expenditures financial
"Growth capital expenditures in the second quarter of 2026 were $1.10 billion; maintenance capital expenditures were $307 million"
Maintenance capital expenditures are the money a company spends to keep its existing buildings, machines, vehicles, or systems running at their current capacity—think replacing worn parts, major repairs, or necessary upgrades to avoid breakdowns. Investors watch this because it’s a recurring, non-growth cost that must be paid before a company can invest in expansion or return cash to shareholders; like routine car maintenance, it preserves value but reduces funds available for new opportunities.
junior subordinated notes financial
"the Partnership issued $650 million ... Series 2026A junior subordinated notes due 2057"
Junior subordinated notes are a type of bond: a loan investors make to a company that ranks low in the repayment order if the company runs into trouble. Because they are paid after other creditors, they usually offer higher interest to compensate for greater risk; think of them as being near the back of the line at a crowded payout window. Investors care because these notes affect potential returns and downside exposure, and they influence a company’s overall borrowing risk and credit profile.
noncontrolling interests financial
"Distributable Cash Flow attributable to noncontrolling interests in other non-wholly owned"
The portion of a subsidiary’s equity and profits that belongs to outside owners rather than the parent company; when a parent reports consolidated results it includes the whole subsidiary but shows the noncontrolling slice separately. Think of a company’s subsidiary as a pie where the parent owns most slices but some are held by other investors — noncontrolling interests tell you how much of the pie and its future earnings don’t belong to the parent, which affects how much profit and net assets are truly attributable to the parent’s shareholders.
Net income attributable to partners $2.09 billion up from $1.16 billion in Q2 2025
Net income per common unit (basic) $0.59 up from $0.32 in Q2 2025
Adjusted EBITDA $5.07 billion increase of 31% from $3.87 billion in Q2 2025
Distributable Cash Flow to partners, as adjusted $2.59 billion increase of 32% from $1.96 billion in Q2 2025
Revenue $34.33 billion up from $19.24 billion in Q2 2025
Guidance

2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance raised to $18.8–$19.1 billion from $18.2–$18.6 billion; growth capital expected at $5.6–$5.9 billion.

business activities and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations, cash flows from operating activities or other GAAP measures.
There are material limitations to using measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, including the difficulty associated with using either as the sole measure to compare the results of one company to another, and the inability to analyze certain significant items that directly affect a company’s net income or loss or cash flows. In addition, our calculations of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow may not be consistent with similarly titled measures of other companies and should be viewed in conjunction with measures that are computed in accordance with GAAP, such as operating income, net income and cash flows from operating activities.
Definition of Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as total partnership earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items, such as non-cash compensation expense, gains and losses on disposals of assets, the allowance for equity funds used during construction, unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities, inventory valuation adjustments, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishments of debt, certain foreign currency transaction gains and losses and other non-operating income or expense items. Inventory valuation adjustments that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represent only the changes in lower of cost or market reserves on inventory that is carried at last-in, first-out (“LIFO”). These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to Sunoco LP’s fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period.
Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for unconsolidated affiliates based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliate as those excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliates. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliates; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliates. The use of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates as an analytical tool should be limited accordingly.
Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to determine our operating performance and, along with other financial and volumetric data, as internal measures for setting annual operating budgets, assessing financial performance of our numerous business locations, as a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition and as a measurement component of incentive compensation.
Definition of Distributable Cash Flow
We define Distributable Cash Flow as net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items, less distributions to preferred unitholders and maintenance capital expenditures. Non-cash items include depreciation, depletion and amortization, non-cash compensation expense, amortization included in interest expense, gains and losses on disposals of assets, the allowance for equity funds used during construction, unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities, inventory valuation adjustments, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishments of debt and deferred income taxes. For unconsolidated affiliates, Distributable Cash Flow reflects the Partnership’s proportionate share of the investees’ distributable cash flow.
Distributable Cash Flow is used by management to evaluate our overall performance. Our partnership agreement requires us to distribute all available cash, and Distributable Cash Flow is calculated to evaluate our ability to fund distributions through cash generated by our operations.
On a consolidated basis, Distributable Cash Flow includes 100% of the Distributable Cash Flow of Energy Transfer’s consolidated subsidiaries. However, to the extent that noncontrolling interests exist among our subsidiaries, the Distributable Cash Flow generated by our subsidiaries may not be available to be distributed to our partners. In order to reflect the cash flows available for distributions to our partners, we have reported Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, which is calculated by adjusting Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated), as follows:
For subsidiaries with publicly traded equity interests, Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated) includes 100% of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to such subsidiary, and Distributable Cash Flow attributable to our partners includes distributions to be received by the parent company with respect to the periods presented.
For consolidated joint ventures or similar entities, where the noncontrolling interest is not publicly traded, Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated) includes 100% of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to such subsidiaries, but Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners reflects only the amount of Distributable Cash Flow of such subsidiaries that is attributable to our ownership interest.
7


For Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, certain transaction-related adjustments and non-recurring expenses that are included in net income are excluded.
(b)These amounts exclude Sunoco LP’s Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow related to its investment in the ET-S Permian and J.C. Nolan joint ventures, which amounts are eliminated in the Energy Transfer consolidation.
(c)For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, preferred unitholders’ distributions include $29 million and $59 million, respectively, of accrued distributions on Sunoco LP’s Series A preferred units, which were issued in September 2025.
(d)Beginning with the three months ended December 31, 2025, this amount includes the distributable cash flow of Sunoco LP and SunocoCorp, eliminating the distributable cash flow of Sunoco LP that is attributable to SunocoCorp.

The following analysis of segment operating results includes a measure of segment margin. Segment margin is a non-GAAP financial measure and is presented herein to assist in the analysis of segment operating results and particularly to facilitate an understanding of the impacts that changes in sales revenues have on the segment performance measure of Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Segment margin is similar to the GAAP measure of gross margin, except that segment margin excludes charges for depreciation, depletion and amortization. Among the GAAP measures reported by the Partnership, the most directly comparable measure to segment margin is Segment Adjusted EBITDA; a reconciliation of segment margin to Segment Adjusted EBITDA is included in the following tables for each segment where segment margin is presented.

an increase of $113 million in realized natural gas sales and other primarily due to wider basis differentials, as well as a $21 million increase from early volumes during the commissioning of the Hugh Brinson Pipeline; and
an increase of $5 million in transportation fees due to higher reservation revenues on long-term third-party contracts; partially offset by
a decrease of $10 million in storage margin due to unfavorable storage optimization;
an increase of $14 million in operating expenses primarily due to a $4 million increase in maintenance and project related expenses, a $4 million increase from one-time expenses, a $4 million increase from the commissioning of the Hugh Brinson pipeline, and increases totaling $2 million from various other operating expenses; and
an increase of $5 million in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to higher legal fees.
