CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. (NYSE: CORR, CORRPrA) ("CorEnergy" or the "Company") today announced financial results for the third quarter, ended September 30, 2022.
Third Quarter 2022 and Recent Highlights
Management Commentary
“Our third quarter was characterized by steady performance from our predictable MoGas and Omega natural gas operations, where we are also evaluating expansion opportunities. We also reported improved volume on our Crimson assets as we continue to manage through disruptions in the global oil supply chain and operational issues with third-party infrastructure. We have initiated both cost efficiency measures and tariff increases on our California pipelines in response to this increased volatility, while maintaining our 2022 outlook calling for adjusted EBITDA of between $42.0 and $44.0 million,” said Dave Schulte, Chief Executive Officer.
“We are also advancing our work in the new carbon capture and sequestration market, where our California assets are well positioned as a critical linkage between large carbon emission sources and attractive storage reservoirs. CCS has emerged as a particular focus in California due to the California Air Resources Board making it a central pillar in its aggressive greenhouse gas reduction plans and economic incentives from government entities at both the federal and state levels that may be the best in the nation.”
Third Quarter Performance Summary
Third quarter financial highlights are as follows:

Crimson Rate Increases
During the third quarter, Crimson filed for a tariff increase of 34.9% on its Southern California pipeline system and 10% on its KLM pipeline. Both of these tariff filings were protested by shippers and are proceeding through the CPUC process with resolution expected in second half of 2023. The Company commenced collecting a 10% tariff increase on both systems after filing, subject to refund, as allowed by the CPUC rules. The Company plans to file and begin collecting an additional 10% increase on its Southern California pipeline system in August 2023, for a total effective increase of 21%, which represents the anniversary date of the original filing for that system, assuming the rate case has not been resolved by that time. CorEnergy believes Crimson's cost-of-service fully justifies both requested increases.
Crimson filed for a Tariff increase of 10% increase on its SPB system, but withdrew it due to increased volumes and general volume variability on that line. The Company will continuously monitor its cost-of-service and will file a rate increase on this system if conditions warrant.
Business Development Activities
CorEnergy continues to seek opportunities for negotiated transactions that could expand the Company's market reach or REIT-qualifying revenue sources, including both traditional infrastructure and potential alternative uses for its rights of way. The Company intends to continue to prudently advance these opportunities within our existing footprint or to enhance scale and diversification; however there can be no assurances that any such opportunities will be consummated on terms that are acceptable or advantageous or at all.
Outlook
CorEnergy is maintaining its outlook for 2022:
Dividend and Distribution Declarations
The Company currently expects to characterize at least some portion of its 2022 Common Stock and Preferred Stock dividends as Return of Capital for tax purposes.
Common Stock: A third quarter 2022 dividend of $0.05 per share was declared for CorEnergy's common stock. The dividend will be paid on November 30, 2022, to stockholders of record on November 16, 2022.
Preferred Stock: For the Company's 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, a cash dividend of $0.4609375 per depositary share was declared for the third quarter. The preferred stock dividend, which equates to an annual dividend payment of $1.84375 per depositary share, will be paid on November 30, 2022, to stockholders of record on November 16, 2022.
Class A-1 Units: Pursuant to the terms of the Crimson transaction, the holders of Crimson Class A-1 Units will receive a cash distribution of $0.4609375 per unit for the third quarter based on the Company’s declared Series A Preferred dividend for the quarter.
Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units: Pursuant to the terms of the Crimson transaction, the holders of Crimson Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units will not receive a cash distribution for the third quarter, because no dividend was declared on the underlying Class B Common Stock for the quarter.

Forward-Looking Statements
With the exception of historical information, certain statements contained in this press release may include "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as those pertaining to our guidance, pursuit of growth opportunities, anticipated transportation volumes, expected rate increases, planned capital expenditures, planned dividend payment levels, capital resources and liquidity, and results of operations and financial condition. You can identify forward-looking statements by use of words such as "will," "may," "should," "could," "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "projects," "goals," "objectives," "targets," "predicts," "plans," "seeks," or similar expressions or other comparable terms or discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. Although CorEnergy believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they do involve assumptions, risks and uncertainties, and these expectations may prove to be incorrect. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including, among others, changes in economic and business conditions; a decline in oil production levels; competitive and regulatory pressures; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Crimson transaction; the risk that CPUC approval is not obtained, is delayed or is subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect CorEnergy or the expected benefits of the Crimson transaction; risks related to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to Crimson; compliance with environmental, safety and other laws; our continued ability to access debt and equity markets and comply with existing debt covenants; risks associated with climate change; risks associated with changes in tax laws and our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT; and other factors discussed in CorEnergy’s reports that are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. Other than as required by law, CorEnergy does not assume a duty to update any forward-looking statement. In particular, any dividends paid in the future to our stockholders will depend on the actual performance of CorEnergy, its costs of leverage and other operating expenses and will be subject to the approval of CorEnergy’s Board of Directors and compliance with leverage covenants and other applicable requirements.
Notes
1 Management uses Adjusted Net Income as a measure of profitability and CAD as a measure of long-term sustainable performance. Adjusted Net Income and CAD are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted Net Income represents net income (loss) adjusted for loss on goodwill impairment, transaction-related costs, and gain on sale of equipment. CAD represents Adjusted Net Income adjusted for depreciation, amortization and ARO accretion (cash flows), stock-based compensation, and deferred tax expense less transaction-related costs, maintenance capital expenditures, preferred dividend requirements, and mandatory debt amortization. Reconciliations of Adjusted Net Income and CAD to Net Income (Loss) and Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities, the most directly comparable corresponding GAAP measures, are included in the additional financial information attached to this press release.
2 Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) adjusted for items such as loss on impairment of goodwill, transaction-related costs, depreciation, amortization and ARO accretion expense, stock-based compensation, income tax expense, interest expense and gain on the sale of equipment. The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income (Loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is included in the additional financial information attached to this press release. Future period non-GAAP guidance includes adjustments for special items not indicative of our core operations, which may include, without limitation, items included in the additional financial information attached to this press release. Such adjustments may be affected by changes in ongoing assumptions and judgments, as well as nonrecurring, unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains or other items that may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. The exact amounts of these adjustments are not currently determinable but may be significant. It is therefore not practicable to provide the comparable GAAP measures or reconcile this future period non-GAAP guidance to the most comparable GAAP measures.
