Financial & Operational Highlights
Adjusted EBITDA
Change in Full Year Adjusted EBITDA ($ millions)(1)
(1) Refer to "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures". |
Pembina reported record quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $970 million and record full year adjusted EBITDA of $3,433 million, representing a twelve percent and five percent increase, respectively, over the same periods in the prior year. Full year adjusted EBITDA exceeded the high end of the Company's guidance range.
Fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA was positively impacted by higher margins on NGL and crude oil sales combined with a higher contribution from Aux Sable; higher contributions from Prince Rupert Terminal and Duvernay III coming into service in March 2021 and November 2020, respectively; and higher share of profit from Veresen Midstream, due to the Hythe Developments project entering service in March 2021 and higher volumes at the Dawson Assets.
For further details on the Company's significant assets, including definitions for capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined, refer to Pembina's Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2021 available at www.sedar.com (filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov under Form 40-F) and on Pembina's website at www.pembina.com.
In addition, relative to the prior period, the fourth quarter of 2021 was negatively impacted by higher realized losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments; expiration of contracts on the Nipisi and Mitsue pipeline systems; and a lower contribution from Ruby Pipeline.
Full year adjusted EBITDA was also impacted by the same factors affecting the fourth quarter, as described above. In addition, full year adjusted EBITDA was positively impacted by higher volumes on the Peace Pipeline system, the placement into service of Empress Infrastructure in October 2020, the impact of the lower U.S. dollar exchange rate, and higher marketed NGL volumes. General & administrative expense for the full year was higher largely due to higher incentive costs, primarily driven by the change in Pembina's share price, and an increase in optimization project costs, partially offset by a reduction in salaries due to a lower headcount.
For further details on the Company's significant assets, including definitions for capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined, refer to Pembina's Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2021 available at www.sedar.com (filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov under Form 40-F) and on Pembina's website at www.pembina.com. |
Earnings
Change in Full Year Earnings ($ millions)(1)(2)
(1) | Facilities results ex. commodity-related derivatives and Marketing & New Ventures results ex. commodity-related derivatives include gross profit less realized and unrealized losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments. |
(2) | Other includes other expenses, impairments and corporate. |
Pembina recorded earnings in the fourth quarter of $80 million and earnings for the full year of $1,242 million compared to a loss of $1,216 million and a loss of $316 million, respectively, in the same periods in the prior year.
In addition to the factors impacting adjusted EBITDA, as noted above, earnings in both periods were positively impacted by lower non-cash after-tax impairments. Pembina recognized $335 million, net of tax, in impairments in 2021 largely related to the Nipisi and Mitsue pipeline systems as well as Edmonton South Rail Terminal, compared to $1.6 billion, net of tax, in impairments in 2020.
Both periods also were positively impacted by unrealized gains on commodity-related derivatives compared to unrealized losses in the prior year. Both periods were negatively impacted by higher income tax expense due to the deferred tax recovery on impairments in the prior year; higher other expense, which increased due to higher transformation and restructuring costs and project write-downs; and a lower share of profit from Ruby Pipeline.
Fourth quarter earnings were also negatively impacted by unrealized losses on commodity-related derivatives for certain gas processing fees tied to AECO prices, and higher net finance costs due to lower foreign exchange gains.
Full year earnings also were positively impacted by unrealized gains on commodity-related derivatives for certain gas processing fees tied to AECO prices and higher other income due to the receipt of the termination fee associated with Pembina's proposed acquisition of Inter Pipeline Ltd. ("Arrangement Termination Payment"), net of the related tax and associated expenses. These positive factors were offset by lower other income associated with the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy received in 2020.
Cash Flow From Operating Activities
Cash flow from operating activities of $697 million for the fourth quarter and $2,650 million for the full year represent a decrease of nine percent and an increase of 18 percent, respectively, over the same periods in the prior year.
The decrease in the fourth quarter was primarily driven by a change in non-cash working capital and an increase in taxes paid, primarily related to the Arrangement Termination Payment, partially offset by an increase in operating results after adjusting for non-cash items, an increase in revenue collected and deferred, and an increase in distributions from equity accounted investees.
The full year increase was due primarily to an increase in operating results after adjusting for non-cash items, and receipt of the Arrangement Termination Payment, partially offset by an increase in taxes paid and an increase in net interest paid.
On a per share (basic) basis, cash flow from operating activities for the fourth quarter and full year decreased by nine percent and increased by 18 percent, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year, due to the same factors.
Adjusted Cash Flow From Operating Activities
Quarterly and record full year adjusted cash flow from operating activities of $734 million and $2,640 million, respectively, represent 22 percent and 15 percent increases, respectively, over the same periods in the prior year. The increases were due to the factors impacting cash flow from operating activities, discussed above, net of the change in non-cash working capital, taxes paid, and lower current tax expense. On a per share (basic) basis, adjusted cash flow from operating activities for the fourth quarter and full year increased by 21 percent and 15 percent, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year, due to the same factors.
Volumes
Total volumes of 3,437 mboe/d for the fourth quarter and 3,456 mboe/d for the full year represent decreases of approximately five percent and one percent, respectively, over the same periods in the prior year. In both periods, volume decreases were largely attributable to the Pipelines Division, most notably on certain oil sands pipelines systems and Ruby Pipeline. Divisional volumes are discussed in further detail below.
Divisional Highlights
Executive Overview
One year ago, we reflected on the significant impact the global health pandemic had on our business, noting that in 2020, Pembina effectively hit the 'pause' button but that in 2021 there was renewed optimism building and a sense of being able to hit 'play' once again. Despite the ongoing pandemic, Pembina did in fact hit 'play', most notably by restarting construction on several previously deferred capital projects and by exceeding the high end of our adjusted EBITDA guidance range. Amidst the backdrop of a recovering economy and strengthening commodity prices, Pembina delivered strong financial and operational results, progressed new initiatives, advanced our environmental, social and governance ("ESG") strategy and positioned ourselves for continued growth and tremendous future success.
Strong 2021 Results
Pembina delivered earnings of $1.2 billion and record adjusted EBITDA of $3.43 billion dollars in 2021, which in the case of adjusted EBITDA, exceeded the top end of our annual guidance range and represents a five percent increase over 2020. Strong financial results reflected much improved commodity prices across all products within Pembina's value chain – crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Volumes on many of Pembina's systems improved throughout 2021 and higher prices and margins on crude oil and NGL, as well as higher NGL sales volumes in the year, also led to strong annual results in our marketing business.
Strong financial performance allowed Pembina to exit 2021 in an even better financial position with a stronger balance sheet, improved liquidity and having maintained or strengthened the Company's financial guardrails. Our commitment to these guardrails has been demonstrated consistently and is unwavering.
Given an improvement in commodity prices, and the expectation of a post-pandemic economic recovery, we continue to have a constructive view of activity in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. Throughout 2021 and now into 2022, we have observed a number of important developments, including strong underlying customers, new third-party infrastructure, and continued petrochemical support and investment, which we have framed collectively as 'Advantage Canada'.
Progressing Pembina's ESG Strategy
Pembina has never been one to shy away from a challenge and as the world around us continues to evolve, Pembina is embracing the opportunity to adapt, respond and contribute to a more sustainable future.
Our strong commitment to ESG is being demonstrated by the ambitious new projects, partnerships and targets we announced this past year.
Looking Ahead
As we previously announced during the quarter, Pembina expects to deliver 2022 adjusted EBITDA of $3.35 to $3.55 billion. In 2022, cash flow from operating activities is expected to exceed dividend payments and the capital expenditure program. Pembina recently announced it expects to allocate up to the first $200 million of the excess cash flow to common share repurchases by mid-2022, representing approximately one percent of the Company's common shares. During the fourth quarter, Pembina made progress towards this goal with the repurchase of $17 million of common shares.
Based on the current guidance for 2022, Pembina expects to remain firmly within its financial guardrails with ample liquidity. Leverage metrics are expected to remain within the ranges for a strong 'BBB' credit rating.
With all these considerations, Pembina's value proposition remains compelling. We have a diversified business, integrated asset base and a growing ability to reach higher value markets for our customers' products. We look forward to continuing to build upon Pembina's base business and develop our multi-billion dollar portfolio of growth opportunities, while being a leading participant in the energy industry's evolution to a more sustainable future.

Financing Activity
On December 10, 2021, Pembina closed an offering of $1.0 billion of senior unsecured medium-term notes. The offering was conducted in two tranches, consisting of the issuance of $500 million in senior unsecured medium-term notes, series 17, having a fixed coupon of 3.53 percent per annum, payable semi-annually and maturing on December 10, 2031; and $500 million in senior unsecured medium-term notes, series 18, having a fixed coupon of 4.49 percent per annum, payable semi-annually and maturing on December 10, 2051.
Pembina currently has in place a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") to purchase up to five percent of its outstanding common shares. The current NCIB expires on March 1, 2022 and Pembina expects to file a notice of intention with the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") to renew the NCIB to purchase up to five percent of its outstanding common shares, subject to approval of the TSX.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
Throughout this news release, Pembina has disclosed certain financial measures and ratios that are not defined in accordance with GAAP and which are not disclosed in Pembina's financial statements. Non-GAAP financial measures either exclude an amount that is included in, or include an amount that is excluded from, the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated as earnings before net finance costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (included in operations and general and administrative expense) and unrealized gains or losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments. The exclusion of unrealized gains or losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments eliminates the non-cash impact of such gains or losses.
Adjusted EBITDA also includes adjustments to earnings for losses (gains) on disposal of assets, transaction costs incurred in respect of acquisitions, dispositions and restructuring, impairment charges or reversals in respect of goodwill, intangible assets, investments in equity accounted investees and property, plant and equipment, certain non-cash provisions and other amounts not reflective of ongoing operations. In addition, Pembina's proportionate share of results from investments in equity accounted investees with a preferred interest is presented in adjusted EBITDA as a 50 percent common interest. These additional adjustments are made to exclude various non-cash and other items that are not reflective of ongoing operations.
Management believes that adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors as it is an important indicator of an issuer's ability to generate liquidity through cash flow from operating activities and equity accounted investees. Management also believes that adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of operating income generated from capital invested, which includes operational finance income from lessor lease arrangements. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by investors and analysts for assessing financial performance and for the purpose of valuing an issuer, including calculating financial and leverage ratios. Management utilizes adjusted EBITDA to set objectives and as a key performance indicator of the Company's success. Pembina presents adjusted EBITDA as management believes it is a measure frequently used by analysts, investors and other stakeholders in evaluating the Company's financial performance.
Adjusted EBITDA per common share is a non-GAAP ratio which is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Adjusted EBITDA from Equity Accounted Investees
In accordance with IFRS, Pembina's jointly controlled investments are accounted for using equity accounting. Under equity accounting, the assets and liabilities of the investment are presented net in a single line item in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, "Investments in Equity Accounted Investees". Net earnings from investments in equity accounted investees are recognized in a single line item in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income "Share of Profit from Equity Accounted Investees". The adjustments made to earnings, in adjusted EBITDA above, are also made to share of profit from investments in equity accounted investees. Cash contributions and distributions from investments in equity accounted investees represent Pembina's share paid and received in the period to and from the investments in equity accounted investees.
To assist in understanding and evaluating the performance of these investments, Pembina is supplementing the IFRS disclosure with non-GAAP proportionate consolidation of Pembina's interest in the investments in equity accounted investees. Pembina's proportionate interest in equity accounted investees has been included in adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities and Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities per Common Share
Adjusted cash flow from operating activities is a non-GAAP measure which is defined as cash flow from operating activities adjusting for the change in non-cash operating working capital, adjusting for current tax and share-based compensation payment, and deducting preferred share dividends paid. Adjusted cash flow from operating activities deducts preferred share dividends paid because they are not attributable to common shareholders. The calculation has been modified to include current tax and share-based compensation payment as it allows management to better assess the obligations discussed below.
Management believes that adjusted cash flow from operating activities provides comparable information to investors for assessing financial performance during each reporting period. Management utilizes adjusted cash flow from operating activities to set objectives and as a key performance indicator of the Company's ability to meet interest obligations, dividend payments and other commitments.
Adjusted cash flow from operating activities per common share is a non-GAAP ratio which is calculated by dividing adjusted cash flow from operating activities by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
