PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D)
HESS MIDSTREAM LP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Table of Contents
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this report to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or like terms, refer to Hess Midstream LP and its subsidiaries. References to “Sponsor” or “Sponsors” refer to Hess Corporation (“Hess”) and GIP II Blue Holding, L.P. (“GIP”) when referring to periods prior to May 30, 2025, Hess from May 30, 2025 to July 17, 2025, and Chevron Corporation (“Chevron”) from July 18, 2025 to present.
The consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company has no items of other comprehensive income (loss); therefore, net income (loss) is equal to comprehensive income (loss). The unaudited results of operations for the interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
The consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain notes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from these interim consolidated financial statements. These financial statements, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
We consolidate the activities of Hess Midstream Operations LP (the “Partnership”), as a variable interest entity (“VIE”) under GAAP. We have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE, as defined in the accounting standards, since we have the power, through our ownership, to direct those activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the Partnership. This conclusion was based on a qualitative analysis that considered the Partnership’s governance structure and the delegation of control provisions, which provide us with the ability to control the operations of the Partnership. All financial statement activities associated with the VIE are captured within gathering, processing and storage, and terminaling and export segments (see Note 11, Segments). We currently do not have any independent assets or operations other than our interest in the Partnership. At June 30, 2025, our noncontrolling interest represents an approximate
On May 30, 2025, GIP sold all of its limited partner interests in the Partnership and no longer holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in the Company, the Partnership or our general partner. On July 18, 2025, Hess and Chevron completed the previously announced merger contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 22, 2023 (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Chevron is the direct parent of Hess and, therefore, indirectly owns an approximate
New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires, among other disclosures, greater disaggregation of information, the use of certain categories in the rate reconciliation, and the disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The ASU will be effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2025. We do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of income statement expenses. This ASU requires disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

Pursuant to the terms of the unit repurchase agreements described above, immediately following each purchase of the Class B Units from the Sponsors, the Partnership cancelled the repurchased units, and the Company cancelled, for no consideration, an equal number of its Class B Shares.
Accelerated Share Repurchases
In May 2025, we repurchased $
The Class B Unit repurchase and ASR transactions described above were funded using borrowings under the Partnership’s existing revolving credit facility (see Note 6, Debt and Interest Expense).
The Class B Unit repurchase and ASR transactions were accounted for in accordance with ASC 810, whereby changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the noncontrolling interest were adjusted to reflect the changes in the ownership interest with the difference between the amounts of consideration paid and the amounts by which the noncontrolling interest were adjusted recognized as a reduction in equity attributable to Class A shareholders. Distributions to noncontrolling interest holders related to the 2024 repurchase transactions exceeded the noncontrolling interest’s carrying value resulting in a deficit balance as shown in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statement of changes in partners’ capital (deficit).
We incurred approximately $
As a result of the equity offering, Class B Unit repurchase and ASR transactions described above, we also recognized an additional deferred tax asset of $
See Note 12, Subsequent Events for description of the August 2025 Class A Share and Class B Unit repurchase transactions.

We have long-term fee-based commercial agreements with certain subsidiaries of Hess to provide (i) gas gathering, (ii) crude oil gathering, (iii) gas processing and fractionation, (iv) storage services, (v) terminaling and export services, and (vi) water handling services.
For the services performed under these commercial agreements, we receive a fee per barrel of crude oil, barrel of water, Mcf of natural gas, or Mcf equivalent of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”), as applicable, delivered during each month, and Hess is obligated to provide us with minimum volumes of crude oil, water, natural gas and NGLs.

The notes described above are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Partnership. Each of the indentures for the senior unsecured notes described above contains customary covenants that restrict our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any other restricted payments; (ii) transfer or sell assets or subsidiary stock; (iii) incur additional debt; or (iv) make restricted investments, unless, at the time of and immediately after giving pro forma effect to such restricted payments and any related incurrence of indebtedness or other transactions, no default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such restricted payment and if the leverage ratio (as defined in the indentures) does not exceed
In addition, the covenants included in the indentures governing the senior unsecured notes contain provisions that allow the Company to satisfy the Partnership’s reporting obligations under the indenture, as long as any such financial information of the Company contains information reasonably sufficient to identify the material differences, if any, between the financial information of the Company, on the one hand, and the Partnership and its subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand, and the Company does not directly own capital stock of any person other than the Partnership and its subsidiaries, or material business operations that would not be consolidated with the financial results of the Partnership and its subsidiaries. The Company is a holding company and has no independent assets or operations. Other than the interest in the Partnership and the effect of federal and state income taxes that are recognized at the Company level, there are no material differences between the consolidated financial statements of the Partnership and the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is from time to time party to various judicial and administrative proceedings. We regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. In the case of a known contingency, we accrue a liability when the loss is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the minimum of the range is accrued.
Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that the outcome of known matters would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we did

Note 12. Subsequent Events
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“Act”) was enacted into law in the U.S., providing for significant changes to U.S. Federal tax law. Under GAAP, the impact of tax law changes is recognized in the period of enactment. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new Act on our consolidated financial statements.
On July 18, 2025, Hess and Chevron completed the previously announced Merger contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 22, 2023. As a result of the Merger, Chevron is the direct parent of Hess and, therefore, indirectly owns each of the following:
On July 24, 2025 (the “Investment Grade Rating Date”), the Partnership received an investment grade rating from S&P. S&P assigned a rating of ‘BBB-’ to the Partnership’s unsecured debt and raised the Partnership’s issuer level credit rating to ‘BBB-’, with a stable outlook. As a result of this investment grade rating and subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions, the Partnership is not expected to be required to comply with certain restrictive covenants set forth in the unsecured notes indentures, including those related to (i) declaring or paying any dividend or make any other restricted payments; (ii) transfer or sale of assets or subsidiary stock; (iii) incurrence of additional debt; (iv) restricted investments; and (v) affiliate transactions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and accompanying footnotes included under Item 1. Financial Statements and in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (our “2024 Annual Report”).
Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise indicates, references in this report to “Hess Midstream LP,” “the Company,” “us,” “our,” “we” or similar terms refer to Hess Midstream LP, including its consolidated subsidiaries. References to “Partnership” refer to Hess Midstream Operations LP. References to “Sponsor” or “Sponsors” refer to Hess Corporation (“Hess”) and GIP II Blue Holding, L.P. (“GIP”) when referring to periods prior to May 30, 2025, Hess from May 30, 2025 to July 17, 2025, and Chevron Corporation (“Chevron”) from July 18, 2025 to present.
This discussion contains forward‑looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in our 2024 Annual Report.
Overview
Organization. We are a fee-based, growth-oriented, limited partnership that owns, operates, develops and acquires a diverse set of midstream assets and provides fee-based services to our Sponsor, its subsidiaries, and third-party customers. Our assets are primarily located in the Bakken and Three Forks shale plays in the Williston Basin area of North Dakota, which we collectively refer to as the Bakken. Our assets and operations are organized into the following three reportable segments: (1) gathering (2) processing and storage and (3) terminaling and export.
We are managed and controlled by Hess Midstream GP LLC (“GP LLC”), the general partner of our general partner. Prior to May 30, 2025, the general partner of our general partner was owned 50/50 by affiliates of Hess and GIP. As described below, as of the closing of the May 2025 GIP equity offering transaction, GIP no longer holds any Class A Shares of the Company or any Class B Units of the Partnership and no longer holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in GP LLC, our general partner, the Company, or the Partnership. From May 30, 2025 to July 17, 2025, the general partner of our general partner was wholly owned by Hess.
Chevron Merger. On July 18, 2025, Hess and Chevron completed the previously announced merger contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 22, 2023 (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Chevron is the direct parent of Hess and, therefore, indirectly owns 100% of the limited liability company interests in GP LLC, 100% of the partnership interests in our general partner, and an approximate 37.8% interest in the Company on a consolidated basis.
There were no changes to our existing commercial agreements with Hess or our existing partnership agreement as a result of the Merger or GIP’s departure.
Equity Transactions. On January 15, 2025, the Partnership purchased directly from the Sponsors 2,572,677 Class B units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“Class B Units”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $100.0 million. The purchase price per Class B Unit was $38.87, the closing price of the Class A Shares on January 13, 2025.
On May 9, 2025, the Partnership purchased directly from the Sponsors 5,151,842 Class B Units for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $190.0 million. The purchase price per Class B Unit was $36.88, the closing price of the Class A Shares on May 5, 2025. The repurchase transactions were funded using borrowings under the Partnership’s existing revolving credit facility.
On February 12, 2025, GIP sold an aggregate of 11,000,000 of our Class A Shares representing limited partner interests (the “Class A Shares”) in an underwritten public offering at a price of $39.45 per Class A Share, less underwriting discounts. GIP also granted the underwriter an option to purchase up to an additional 1,650,000 Class A Shares at the same price per Class A Share, which was exercised in full on February 19, 2025. GIP received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $494.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts. On May 30, 2025, GIP sold an aggregate of 15,022,517 of our Class A Shares in an underwritten public offering at a price of $37.25 per Class A Share, less underwriting discounts. GIP received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $553.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the offering transactions. The offering transactions were conducted pursuant to a registration rights agreement among us and the Sponsors.

PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D)
Table of Contents
In May 2025, we repurchased $10.0 million of our publicly traded Class A Shares through an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) transaction with a financial institution. Under the terms of the ASR, we paid $10.0 million in cash to the financial institution and received 267,532 Class A Shares as determined by the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of Class A Shares during the term of the transaction. The ASR transaction was funded using borrowings under the Partnership’s existing revolving credit facility.
As a result of the equity offering and unit and share repurchase transactions described above, our public ownership increased from approximately 47.3% at December 31, 2024, to approximately 62.2% at June 30, 2025, on a consolidated basis.
On August 4, 2025, the Partnership entered into an agreement to purchase 695,894 Class B Units directly from our Sponsor at a purchase price of $43.11 per Class B Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $30.0 million. In addition, on August 4, 2025, we entered into an ASR agreement with a financial institution to repurchase $70.0 million of our publicly traded Class A Shares. Under the terms of the ASR, we agreed to make an upfront payment of $70.0 million in cash to the financial institution and expect an initial share delivery of 1,136,627 Class A Shares on August 8, 2025, representing approximately 70% of the expected Class A Share repurchases under the ASR agreement, based on the closing price of the Class A Shares on August 4, 2025. Final share delivery is expected in the third quarter of 2025. The total number of Class A Shares to ultimately be purchased by the Company under the ASR agreement will be based generally on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of Class A Shares during the term of the transaction, subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR agreement. See Note 12, Subsequent Events.
Investment Grade Rating. On July 24, 2025, the Partnership received an investment grade rating from S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”). S&P assigned a rating of ‘BBB-’ to the Partnership’s unsecured debt and raised the Partnership’s issuer level credit rating to ‘BBB-’, with a stable outlook. As a result of this investment grade rating and subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions, the Partnership is not expected to be required to comply with certain restrictive covenants set forth in the unsecured notes indentures. Additionally, as a result of the investment grade rating, certain restrictive covenants on the Partnership’s Credit Facilities fall away and become more permissive. See Note 12, Subsequent Events for additional description.
Second Quarter Results
Significant financial and operating highlights for the second quarter of 2025 included:
Revenues and other income in the second quarter of 2025 were $414.2 million, up from $365.5 million in the prior‑year quarter, primarily due to higher physical volumes and higher tariff rates. Total operating costs and expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were $154.0 million, up from $143.2 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily due to higher pass-through electricity and produced water trucking and disposal costs, higher employee costs and depreciation expense for additional assets placed in service. Interest expense, net of interest income, in the second quarter of 2025 was $55.4 million, up from $49.7 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily due to $600.0 million 6.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes issued in May 2024. Income tax expense was $29.1 million, up from $16.0 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily resulting from ownership changes following GIP secondary equity offering and Class B Unit repurchase transactions. As a result, consolidated net income increased $19.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased $39.5 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared with the second quarter of 2024.
Throughput volumes increased 7% for gas processing, 9% for oil terminaling and 11% for water gathering in the second quarter of 2025 compared with the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher production.
For additional discussion of the results of operations at the segment level, see “Results of Operations” below. For additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, our non‑GAAP financial measure, see “How We Evaluate Our Operations” and “Reconciliation of Non‑GAAP Financial Measure” below.

How We Generate Revenues
We generate substantially all of our revenues by charging fees for gathering, compressing and processing natural gas and fractionating natural gas liquids (“NGLs”); gathering, terminaling, loading and transporting crude oil and NGLs; storing and terminaling propane; and gathering and disposing of produced water. We have entered into long‑term, fee‑based commercial agreements with Hess effective January 1, 2014, for oil and gas services agreements, and effective January 1, 2019, for water services agreements.
Except for the water services agreements and except for a certain gathering sub-system, as described below, each of our commercial agreements with Hess had an initial 10-year term. We exercised our renewal options to extend each of these commercial agreements for one additional 10-year term (“Secondary Term”) effective January 1, 2024, through December 31, 2033. There were no changes to any provisions of the existing commercial agreements as a result of the exercise of the renewal options. For this gathering sub-system, the initial term is 15 years effective January 1, 2014, and the Secondary Term is 5 years. For the water services agreements the initial term is 14 years effective January 1, 2019, and the Secondary Term is 10 years. We have the sole option to renew these remaining agreements for their Secondary Term that is exercisable at a later date. Upon the expiration of the Secondary Term, if any, the agreements will automatically renew for subsequent one-year periods unless terminated by either party no later than 180 days prior to the end of the applicable Secondary Term.
These agreements include dedications covering substantially all of Hess’ existing and future owned or controlled production in the Bakken, minimum volume commitments, inflation escalators and fee recalculation mechanisms, all of which are intended to provide us with cash flow stability and growth, as well as downside risk protection. In particular, Hess’ minimum volume commitments under our commercial agreements provide minimum levels of cash flows and the fee recalculation mechanisms under the agreements allow fees to be adjusted annually to provide us with cash flow stability during the initial term of the agreements. During the Secondary Term of the agreements, the fee recalculation model is replaced by an inflation-based fee structure. See Note 3, Related Party Transactions for additional description of our commercial agreements.
Our revenues also include revenues from (i) third-party volumes contracted directly with us, (ii) third-party volumes contracted with Hess and delivered to us under the commercial agreements with Hess described above, and (iii) pass-through third-party rail transportation costs, third-party produced water trucking and disposal costs, electricity fees and certain other third-party fees, for which we recognize revenues in an amount equal to the costs. Together with our Sponsor, we are pursuing strategic relationships with third-party producers and other midstream companies with operations in the Bakken in order to maximize our utilization rates.

How We Evaluate Our Operations
Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our operating results and profitability. These metrics include (i) volumes, (ii) operating and maintenance expenses, and (iii) Adjusted EBITDA.
Volumes. The amount of revenues we generate primarily depends on the volumes of crude oil, natural gas, NGLs and produced water that we handle at our gathering, processing, terminaling, storage facilities and disposal facilities. These volumes are affected primarily by the supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs in the markets served directly or indirectly by our assets, including changes in crude oil prices, which may further affect volumes delivered by Hess. Although Hess has committed to minimum volumes under our commercial agreements described above, our results of operations will be impacted by our ability to:
Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Our management seeks to maximize the profitability of our operations by effectively managing operating and maintenance expenses. These expenses are comprised primarily of costs charged to us under our omnibus agreement and employee secondment agreement, third‑party contractor costs, utility costs, insurance premiums, third‑party service provider costs, related property taxes and other non‑income taxes and maintenance expenses, such as expenditures to repair, refurbish and replace storage facilities and to maintain equipment reliability, integrity and safety. These expenses generally remain relatively stable across broad ranges of throughput volumes but can fluctuate from period to period depending on the mix of activities performed during that period and the timing of substantial expenses, such as gas plant turnarounds. We seek to manage our maintenance expenditures by scheduling periodic maintenance on our assets in order to minimize significant variability in these expenditures and minimize their impact on our cash flow.
Adjusted EBITDA. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as reported net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, such as transaction costs, other income and other non‑cash and non‑recurring items, if applicable. We use Adjusted EBITDA to analyze our performance and liquidity.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non‑GAAP supplemental financial measure that management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:
We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA are net income (loss) and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility.

Gathering
Revenues and other income increased $26.9 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, of which $9.0 million is attributable to higher tariff rates, $6.9 million is attributable to higher gas gathering physical volumes, and $3.9 million is attributable to higher water gathering and disposal revenue. Additionally, $3.9 million of the increase is attributable to higher pass‑through revenue, $2.9 million is attributable to higher crude oil gathering physical volumes, and $0.3 million is attributable to services provided directly to third parties.
Operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation) increased $3.9 million, of which $3.9 million is attributable to higher pass-through costs, including produced water trucking and disposal and electricity fees, and $2.9 million is attributable to higher employee costs charged to us under our omnibus and employee secondment agreements, offset by $2.9 million primarily attributable to lower maintenance activities. Depreciation expense increased $1.2 million due to new gathering assets brought into service.

Processing and Storage
Revenues and other income increased $18.4 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, of which $9.2 million is attributable to higher gas processing physical volumes, $7.3 million is attributable to higher tariff rates, $1.0 million is attributable to higher pass‑through revenue, and $0.9 million is attributable to services provided directly to third parties.
Operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation) increased $3.3 million, of which $1.0 million is attributable to higher pass-through costs, $1.0 million is attributable to higher employee costs charged to us under our omnibus and employee secondment agreements, and $1.3 million is attributable to all other costs.
Terminaling and Export
Revenues and other income increased $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, of which $2.3 million is attributable to higher physical volumes and $1.1 million is primarily attributable to higher tariff rates.
Operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation) remained relatively flat in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.
Interest and Other
Interest expense, net of interest income, increased $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, of which $5.3 million is attributable to interest on senior unsecured notes primarily related to the $600.0 million 6.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured note issued in May 2024, $0.9 million is attributable to higher amortization of deferred finance costs and $0.7 million is attributable to lower interest income. These increases were partially offset by $1.2 million attributable to lower interest on lower borrowings under our Credit Facilities.
Income tax expense increased $13.1 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by increased ownership of the Partnership by Hess Midstream LP following equity offering and unit repurchase transactions in 2024 and 2025.

Gathering
Revenues and other income increased $42.4 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, of which $13.5 million is attributable to higher gas gathering physical volumes, $11.2 million is attributable to higher tariff rates, $5.5 million is attributable to higher water gathering and disposal revenue, and $5.3 million is attributable to higher crude oil gathering physical volumes. Additionally, $4.8 million of the increase is attributable to higher pass‑through revenue, $1.3 million is attributable to crude oil MVCs recognized in revenue upon expiration of shortfall fee credits and $0.8 million is attributable to services provided directly to third parties.
Operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation) increased $8.0 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, of which $7.3 million is attributable to higher employee costs charged to us under our omnibus and employee secondment agreements and $4.8 million is attributable to higher pass-through costs, including produced water trucking and disposal and electricity fees, partially offset by $4.1 million primarily attributable to lower compressor stations overhauls and other maintenance activities. Depreciation expense increased $2.8 million due to new compressors and other new gathering assets brought into service.

Processing and Storage
Revenues and other income increased $27.1 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, of which $18.3 million is attributable to higher gas processing physical volumes, $5.5 million is attributable to higher tariff rates, $2.4 million is attributable to higher pass-through revenue and $0.9 million is attributable to services provided directly to third parties.
Operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation) increased $5.8 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, of which $2.4 million is attributable to higher pass-through costs, $2.2 million is attributable to higher third‑party processing fees and $1.2 million is attributable to all other costs.
Terminaling and Export
Revenues and other income increased $5.6 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, of which $3.4 million is attributable to higher physical volumes and $2.2 million is attributable to higher tariff rates.
Operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation) remained relatively flat in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024.
Interest and Other
Interest expense, net of interest income, increased $13.6 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, of which $18.1 million is attributable to interest on $800.0 million 5.875% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes issued in February 2025, $14.7 million is attributable to interest on $600.0 million 6.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes issued in May 2024, $2.0 million is attributable to extinguishment loss related to early redemption of $800.0 million 5.625% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes and $1.8 million is attributable to higher amortization of deferred finance costs. These increases were partially offset by $14.5 million attributable to lower interest on $800.0 million 5.625% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes that were redeemed in March 2025, $7.9 million attributable to lower interest on lower borrowings under our Credit Facilities and $0.6 million higher interest income.
Income tax expense increased $21.8 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, primarily driven by increased ownership of the Partnership by Hess Midstream LP following equity offering and unit repurchase transactions in 2024 and 2025.

Other Factors Expected to Significantly Affect Our Future Results
We currently generate substantially all of our revenues under fee‑based commercial agreements with Hess, including third parties contracted with affiliates of Hess. These contracts provide cash flow stability and minimize our direct exposure to commodity price fluctuations, since we generally do not own any of the crude oil, natural gas, or NGLs that we handle and do not engage in the trading of crude oil, natural gas, or NGLs. However, commodity price fluctuations indirectly influence our activities and results of operations over the long-term, since they can affect production rates and investments by our Sponsor and third parties in the development of new crude oil and natural gas reserves. The markets for oil and natural gas are volatile and will likely continue to be volatile in the future.
The throughput volumes at our facilities depend primarily on the volumes of crude oil and natural gas produced by our Sponsor and third parties in the Bakken, which, in turn, are ultimately dependent on our Sponsor’s and third parties’ exploration and production margins. Exploration and production margins depend on the price of crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs. These prices are volatile and influenced by numerous factors beyond our or our customers’ control, including the domestic and global supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs. Sustained periods of low prices for oil and natural gas could materially and adversely affect the quantities of oil and natural gas that our Sponsor and third parties can economically produce. The commodities trading markets, as well as global and regional supply and demand factors, may also influence the selling prices of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs. To the extent our plans include revenues for volumes above currently established MVC levels, such revenues could decline to the MVC levels as a result of market volatility. Furthermore, our ability to execute our growth strategy in the Bakken, including attracting third-party volumes, will depend on crude oil and natural gas production in that area, which is also affected by the supply of and demand for crude oil and natural gas.
The majority of our systems entered the Secondary Term of our commercial agreements, which includes a fixed fee structure based on the average fees paid by Hess during 2021-2023 adjusted annually for inflation up to 3% a year. Such a fee structure may provide less downside risk protection in the future compared to the fee structure we had during the initial term of the commercial agreements. For our terminaling and water gathering systems, the rates will continue to be reset through our annual rate redetermination process through 2033. For all of our systems, MVCs will continue to provide downside risk protection through 2033. Generally, all of our volumes are expected to be above currently established MVC levels in 2025, 2026 and 2027.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include:
We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to meet our operating requirements, our planned short‑term capital expenditures, debt service requirements, our quarterly cash distribution requirements, future internal growth projects or potential acquisitions.
Our partnership agreement requires that we distribute all of our available cash, as defined in the agreement, to our shareholders. On July 28, 2025, we declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.7370 per Class A Share, to be paid on August 14, 2025 to shareholders of record on August 7, 2025. Simultaneously, the Partnership will make a distribution of $0.7370 per Class B Unit of the Partnership to the Sponsors.
Fixed‑Rate Senior Notes
On February 12, 2025, the Partnership issued $800.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% fixed‑rate senior unsecured notes due 2028 to qualified institutional investors. Interest is payable semi‑annually on March 1 and September 1, commencing September 1, 2025. The Partnership used the net proceeds from the issuance of the new notes, along with borrowings under its revolving credit facility, to redeem its outstanding $800.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% fixed‑rate senior unsecured notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The Partnership redeemed the 2026 Notes on March 5, 2025, and recognized an extinguishment loss of approximately $2.0 million included in Interest expense, net in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations.
As of June 30, 2025, the Partnership had:
The notes described above are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Partnership. Each of the indentures for the senior unsecured notes described above contains customary covenants that restrict our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any other restricted payments; (ii) transfer or sell assets or subsidiary stock; (iii) incur additional debt; or (iv) make restricted investments, unless, at the time of and immediately after giving pro forma effect to such restricted payments and any related incurrence of indebtedness or other transactions, no default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such restricted payment and if the leverage ratio (as defined in the indentures) does not exceed 4.25 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2025, the Partnership was in compliance with all debt covenants under the indentures.
31
PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D)
Table of Contents
In addition, the covenants included in the indentures governing the senior unsecured notes contain provisions that allow the Company to satisfy the Partnership’s reporting obligations under the indenture, as long as any such financial information of the Company contains information reasonably sufficient to identify the material differences, if any, between the financial information of the Company, on the one hand, and the Partnership and its subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand and the Company does not directly own capital stock of any person other than the Partnership and its subsidiaries, or material business operations that would not be consolidated with the financial results of the Partnership and its subsidiaries. The Company is a holding company and has no independent assets or operations. Other than the interest in the Partnership and the effect of federal and state income taxes that are recognized at the Company level, there are no material differences between the consolidated financial statements of the Partnership and the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Credit Facilities
As of June 30, 2025, the Partnership had $1.4 billion senior secured credit facilities (the “Credit Facilities”) consisting of a $1.0 billion five-year revolving credit facility and a $400.0 million five‑year Term Loan A facility. The Credit Facilities mature in July 2027. Facility fees accrue on the total capacity of the revolving credit facility. Borrowings under the five-year Term Loan A facility generally bear interest at Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus the applicable margin that ranged from 1.65% to 2.55%, while the applicable margin for the five‑year syndicated revolving credit facility ranged from 1.375% to 2.050%. Pricing levels for the facility fee and interest rate margins are based on the Partnership’s ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facilities). As of June 30, 2025, borrowings of $273.0 million were drawn and outstanding under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility, and borrowings of $375.0 million, excluding deferred issuance costs, were drawn and outstanding under the Partnership’s Term Loan A facility.
The Credit Facilities can be used for borrowings and letters of credit for general corporate purposes. The Credit Facilities are guaranteed by each direct and indirect wholly owned material domestic subsidiary of the Partnership, and are secured by first priority perfected liens on substantially all of the presently owned and after-acquired assets of the Partnership and its direct and indirect wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries, including equity interests directly owned by such entities, subject to certain customary exclusions. The Credit Facilities contain representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that the Partnership considers to be customary for an agreement of this type, including a covenant that requires the Partnership to maintain a ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facilities) for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (5.50 to 1.00 during the specified period following certain acquisitions) and a ratio of secured debt to EBITDA for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. As of June 30, 2025, the Partnership was in compliance with these financial covenants.
On July 24, 2025, the Partnership received an investment grade credit rating from S&P. See Note 12, Subsequent Events for additional description.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased $22.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to an increase in revenues and other income of $75.1 million, an increase in distributions received from equity investments of $2.2 million, partially offset by an increase in expenses, other than depreciation, equity-based compensation and other non-cash gains and losses of $28.6 million and an increase in cash used by changes in working capital of $26.3 million.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities decreased $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily driven by the timing of payments for additions to property, plant, and equipment primarily related to our compression capacity and associated pipeline infrastructure expansion program.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities increased $126.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. In the first six months of 2025, we received proceeds of $787.5 million, net of financing costs, from our issuance of the new 5.875% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2028, compared to $591.1 million in proceeds, net of financing costs, from our issuance of the 6.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes in 2024. In addition, we received $258.0 million net proceeds from borrowings under our Credit Facilities compared to repayments of $340.0 million from borrowings under our Credit Facilities in 2024. We used the net proceeds from the issuance of the new 5.875% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes, along with borrowings under our revolving credit facility, to redeem the $800.0 million notes due 2026. Our repayments of the term loan facility were $5.0 million higher in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. In addition, in the first six months of 2025, we spent $100.0 million more for share and unit repurchases, paid higher distributions to shareholders and noncontrolling interests of $14.8 million, as well as paid higher transaction costs of $0.8 million compared to the same period in 2024.
Capital Expenditures
Our operations can be capital intensive, requiring investments to expand, upgrade, maintain or enhance existing operations and to meet environmental and operational regulations.
The following table sets forth a summary of capital expenditures and reconciles capital expenditures on an accrual basis to additions to property, plant and equipment on a cash basis:

Capital expenditures in 2025 are primarily attributable to continued expansion of our compression capacity and gas capture capabilities and related pipeline infrastructure to meet our Sponsor’s and third parties’ current and future production growth and gas capture targets. The activities focus on the construction of two new compressor stations and associated pipeline infrastructure, which are expected to be placed in service in 2025. Capital expenditures in 2024 were also attributable to continued expansion of our compression capacity and related pipeline infrastructure.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-looking Information
This Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q, including information incorporated by reference herein, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws. Words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “intend,” “project,” “plan,” “predict,” “will,” “target” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which are not historical in nature. Our forward-looking statements may include, without limitation: our future financial and operational results; our business strategy; our industry; our expected revenues; our future profitability; our maintenance or expansion projects; our projected budget and capital expenditures and the impact of such expenditures on our performance; our ability to deliver ongoing return of capital to our shareholders; future economic and market conditions in the oil and gas industry; and information about sustainability goals and targets and planned social, safety environmental policies, programs and initiatives.
Forward-looking statements are based on our current understanding, assessments, estimates and projections of relevant factors and reasonable assumptions about the future. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our current projections or expectations of future results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The following important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements:
34
PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D)
Table of Contents
As and when made, we believe that our forward-looking statements are reasonable. However, given these risks and uncertainties, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements since such statements speak only as of the date when made and there can be no assurance that such forward-looking statements will occur and actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement we make. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. We generally do not take ownership of the crude oil, natural gas or NGLs that we currently gather, process, terminal, store or transport for our customers. Because we generate substantially all of our revenues by charging fees under long-term commercial agreements with Hess with minimum volume commitments, our Sponsor bears the risks associated with fluctuating commodity prices and we have minimal direct exposure to commodity prices.
In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to market risks related to changes in interest rates. Our financial risk management activities may include transactions designed to reduce risk by reducing our exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps may be used to convert interest payments on certain long‑term debt. At June 30, 2025, we did not have in place any derivative instruments to hedge any exposure to changes in interest rates.
At June 30, 2025, our total debt had a carrying value of $3,714.4 million and a fair value of approximately $3,752.2 million, based on Level 2 inputs in the fair value measurement hierarchy. A 15% increase or decrease in interest rates would decrease or increase the fair value of our fixed rate debt by approximately $81.5 million or $79.7 million, respectively. The carrying value of the amounts under our Term Loan A facility and revolving credit facility at the quarter-end approximated their fair value. Any changes in interest rates do not impact cash outflows associated with fixed rate interest payments or settlement of debt principal, unless a debt instrument is repurchased prior to maturity. Our exposure to market risk related to changes in interest rates has not materially changed from what we previously disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Based upon their evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a‑15(e) and 15d‑15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2025, Jonathan C. Stein, Chief Executive Officer, and Michael J. Chadwick, Chief Financial Officer, concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2025.
There was no change in internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a‑15(f) and 15d‑15(f) under the Exchange Act, in the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Information regarding legal proceedings is contained in Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and is incorporated herein by reference. Pursuant to Item 103(c)(3)(iii) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, we are required to disclose certain information about environmental proceedings to which a governmental authority is a party if we reasonably believe such proceedings may result in monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, above a stated threshold. We have elected to apply a threshold of $1 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 includes certain risk factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition, or future results. Those risk factors have not materially changed.
Risks Related to the Merger
Integrating Hess’ business following the Merger may cause Chevron’s financial results to differ from Chevron’s expectations or the expectations of the investment community, Chevron may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger, and the Merger may disrupt Chevron’s current plans or operations, any of which may adversely affect our business results and negatively affect the trading price of our Class A Shares.
The success of the Merger, which closed in July 2025, will depend, in part, on Chevron’s ability to successfully integrate the business of Hess, including our business, and realize the anticipated benefits, including the anticipated run-rate cost synergies, estimated five-year production and free cash flow growth rates, among other anticipated benefits, and anticipated higher returns to shareholders over the long-term. Difficulties in integrating Hess may result in a failure of Chevron to realize anticipated synergies in the expected timeframe, in operational challenges for Chevron’s and our ongoing businesses (including potential difficulties in employee retention following closing), and in the diversion of Chevron’s and our management’s attention from ongoing business concerns as well as in unforeseen expenses associated with the Merger, which may have an adverse impact on Chevron’s financial results. Because we are substantially dependent on Chevron, if the anticipated benefits of the Merger are not realized fully, or at all, or if they take longer to realize than expected, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected and could negatively affect the trading prices of our Class A Shares.
