Energy Transfer Announces Increase in Quarterly Cash Distribution

Distribution Represents 15 Percent Increase Compared to Prior Quarter

Energy Transfer LP (NYSE: ET) today announced a quarterly cash distribution of $0.175 per Energy Transfer common unit ($0.70 on an annualized basis) for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021, which will be paid on February 18, 2022 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on February 8, 2022.

The distribution is an approximately 15% increase over the previous quarter and represents the first step in Energy Transfer’s plan to return additional value to unitholders while maintaining its target leverage ratio of 4.0x-4.5x debt-to-EBITDA. Future increases to the distribution level will be evaluated quarterly with the ultimate goal of returning distributions to the previous level of $0.305 per quarter, or $1.22 on an annual basis, while balancing the partnership’s leverage target, growth opportunities and unit buy-backs.

In addition, as previously announced, Energy Transfer plans to release earnings for the fourth quarter and full year 2021 on Wednesday, February 16, 2022, after the market closes. The company will also conduct a conference call on Wednesday, February 16, 2022 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time/4:30 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss quarterly results and provide a company update including an outlook for 2022. The conference call will be broadcast live via an internet webcast, which can be accessed on Energy Transfer’s website at energytransfer.com. The call will also be available for replay on Energy Transfer’s website for a limited time.
