Energy Transfer LP reported mixed fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results while highlighting ongoing expansion of its natural gas network. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, net income attributable to partners was $928 million, down from $1.077 billion a year earlier, and basic net income per common unit was $0.25. However, fourth-quarter Adjusted EBITDA rose to $4.182 billion from $3.884 billion, and Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, increased to $2.041 billion from $1.978 billion. The Partnership announced a quarterly cash distribution of $0.3350 per common unit ($1.34 annualized), more than 3% higher than the prior year’s fourth quarter. Operationally, volumes grew across most segments, with record NGL fractionation and crude oil transportation levels and continued build-out of Permian and Florida gas infrastructure. The Partnership modestly raised its 2026 Adjusted EBITDA outlook to a range of $17.45–$17.85 billion and plans $5.0–$5.5 billion of 2026 growth capital spending, while suspending the Lake Charles LNG export project to prioritize pipeline investments.
Energy Transfer LP completed an underwritten public debt offering, issuing a total of $3,000,000,000 of senior notes in three tranches. The company sold $1,000,000,000 of 4.550% Senior Notes due 2031, $1,000,000,000 of 5.350% Senior Notes due 2036, and $1,000,000,000 of 6.300% Senior Notes due 2056. These notes were issued under an existing Indenture, as supplemented by a Tenth Supplemental Indenture, and were offered under an automatic shelf registration statement and related prospectus supplement.
Energy Transfer LP is offering $3.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes in three series: $1.0 billion of 4.550% notes due 2031, $1.0 billion of 5.350% notes due 2036, and $1.0 billion of 6.300% notes due 2056. Interest starts accruing on January 27, 2026 and is paid semi-annually each January 15 and July 15, with final maturities on January 15 of 2031, 2036 and 2056.
The notes are senior unsecured obligations ranking equally with other senior unsecured debt and structurally subordinated to approximately $13 billion of subsidiary indebtedness as of September 30, 2025. None of the subsidiaries will initially guarantee the notes, though future credit facility guarantors must also guarantee them.
Energy Transfer expects net proceeds of about $2.97 billion, to be used to refinance existing indebtedness, including commercial paper and borrowings under its revolving credit facility, and for general partnership purposes. After this refinancing, there would have been no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2025. The notes are callable at a make-whole premium before specified par call dates and at par thereafter, and no sinking fund or exchange listing is provided.
Energy Transfer LP has priced a public debt offering totaling $3 billion of fixed-rate senior notes. The partnership is issuing $1,000,000,000 of 4.550% Senior Notes due 2031, $1,000,000,000 of 5.350% Senior Notes due 2036, and $1,000,000,000 of 6.300% Senior Notes due 2056 under an effective shelf registration. The transaction is expected to close on January 27, 2026, subject to customary conditions.
Energy Transfer expects to receive approximately $2.97 billion in net proceeds before expenses. It plans to use this cash to refinance existing indebtedness, including repaying commercial paper and borrowings under its revolving credit facility, and for general partnership purposes. Several underwriters and their affiliates are also lenders under the credit facility or dealers in the commercial paper program, so they may receive part of the proceeds through these repayments.
Energy Transfer LP is offering three new series of senior unsecured notes maturing in 2031, 2036 and 2056. The notes will pay fixed interest semi‑annually each January 15 and July 15, starting July 15, 2026, and are issued as senior obligations ranking equally with the partnership’s other unsecured senior debt and ahead of any subordinated debt.
Energy Transfer may redeem each series before maturity, initially at a make‑whole price and, after specified “par call” dates, at 100% of principal plus accrued interest. There is no sinking fund, and the notes will not be guaranteed by subsidiaries when issued, so they are structurally subordinated to existing subsidiary debt. The notes are expected to settle on a T+10 basis through DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear, and no stock exchange listing is planned.
The partnership expects to use the net proceeds primarily to refinance existing indebtedness, including commercial paper and borrowings under its revolving credit facility, and for general partnership purposes. Recent developments highlighted include upsizing the planned Desert Southwest gas pipeline expansion and suspending the Lake Charles LNG project to focus capital on other natural gas infrastructure.
