APC Reports Q2 Revenue of $1.84B, Acquires U.S. Petroleum Partners

Reports Q2 revenue $1.84B, consensus $1.5B. "APC delivered another quarter of strong execution, highlighted by growth in adjusted EBITDA and discretionary cash flow," said Arie Kotler, CEO. "We saw growth in operating income across all three of our segments, which we believe underscores the resilience of our platform, enabling us to perform even during volatile market conditions. Our strong first-half results reinforce our confidence in the stability of our cash flow generation, and we believe that we remain well positioned to deliver on our full-year guidance. We also announced that we agreed to acquire the business of U.S. Petroleum Partners, which represents an important milestone in our growth story. We intentionally positioned APC with a strong balance sheet, significant liquidity and financial flexibility at the time of our IPO so we could pursue accretive and highly strategic opportunities like this one. This transaction is expected to expand our predominantly fee-based and fixed-margin earnings profile, enhance our cash flow generation capabilities and strengthen our ability to create long-term value for shareholders. Combined with our continued organic growth initiatives and disciplined capital allocation strategy, we believe APC is entering an exciting new phase of growth."
