Cactus Reports Q2 Revenue of $17.69B, Beating Expectations
Reports Q2 revenue $17.69B, consensus $12.72B. "Strong results in the quarter mark a significant improvement from first quarter levels and place us on-track to deliver on our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance. Year-to-date we are on pace to accomplish all three key initiatives outlined for 2026. In May, we successfully closed on the sale of our Canadian NGL business, completing a transition to a premier pure play crude oil midstream provider. Proceeds from the NGL sale were used to bring our leverage ratio back within our established target range. Cactus III synergies have been captured and we are now seeing additional upside potential from expanding the capacity of the pipeline by 75 Mbbl/d. Finally, we remain on-track to capture streamlining efficiencies throughout the organization this year. The combination of these key initiatives along with contributions from new organic investment opportunities and Permian volume growth provides momentum for the organization heading into 2027. The oil macro environment remains volatile but our well positioned asset footprint, integrated business model, and commercial relationships position us well to capture opportunities across our portfolio," said Willie Chiang, Chairman, CEO and President.
Plains All American Updates 2026 Capital Spending Guidance to $450 Million
Plains All American (PAA) and Plains GP Holdings (PAGP) are providing an update to capital spending guidance for 2026. Plains expects growth capital spending to increase from approximately $350M to a range of $400M to $450M net to PAA in 2026. Maintenance capital is expected to remain approximately $185M net to PAA this year. "The oil macro environment has improved significantly since the beginning of the year, and customer activity and interest has allowed us to advance several high return projects. We believe tightened global crude oil supply and demand balances have increased demand for North American hydrocarbons. Our company is uniquely positioned to facilitate this growth with approximately 1.2 million barrels a day of crude oil purchases and direct connectivity to global export markets. The macro backdrop should result in an uplift in the value of energy infrastructure assets and support our continued commitment to increase return of capital to unitholders," said Willie Chiang, chairman, CEO and president.
Keyera Completes Acquisition of Plains' Canadian Natural Gas Liquids Business for $5.3B
Keyera Corp. (KEYUF) announced the closing of its previously announced acquisition of substantially all of Plains' (PAA) Canadian natural gas liquids business for $5.3B including closing adjustments. The Transaction closed in its entirety on May 12, 2026. The Transaction was funded through previously issued subscription receipts, cash on hand and previously issued debt financing. Upon closing, each outstanding subscription receipt was automatically converted, without additional consideration, into one Keyera common share in accordance with its terms. The company said, " As previously disclosed, the Commissioner of Competition has filed an application with the Competition Tribunal in connection with the Transaction. Keyera disagrees with the Commissioner's assertions and characterization of the Transaction and intends to respond through the Competition Tribunal process. The Company remains confident that the Transaction strengthens competition across the basin by creating a more efficient Canadian-based competitor with expanded connectivity and market access capabilities. Under the Competition Tribunal process, Keyera has 45 days to file its response to the application, after which the Commissioner will have an opportunity to reply. The Competition Tribunal will then establish the schedule for the proceeding. While timelines may vary depending on the nature and complexity of the matter, proceedings before the Competition Tribunal can extend over a number of months. Keyera remains confident in both the strength of its defense and the strategic and financial merits of the Transaction."
Plains Completes $3.3 Billion Asset Sale to Keyera
Plains All American Pipeline (PAA) and Plains GP Holdings (PAGP) completed the previously announced sale of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Plains Midstream Canada ULC, the PAA subsidiary that owns substantially all of PAA's natural gas liquids business to Keyera Corp. (KEYUF), pursuant to the terms of a definitive Share Purchase Agreement dated as of June 17, 2025. Net cash proceeds from the sale were approximately $3.3B and will be used to repay certain outstanding indebtedness and for other general partnership purposes. Post closing, Plains expects its leverage ratio to trend toward the middle of its targeted range of 3.25 to 3.75x. As previously disclosed, Plains does not anticipate paying a special distribution following the closing as the tax liability to unitholders resulting from the NGL divestiture is expected to be mitigated by bonus depreciation from the Cactus III acquisition.
Plains Reports Q1 Revenue of $12.47B, Exceeding Expectations
Reports Q1 revenue $12.47B, consensus $12.02B. "Global events this year illustrate the importance of reliable, secure and responsibly produced energy and have accelerated the timing of our view for a more constructive crude oil market. Our integrated business model and asset base connecting U.S. crude production to the global markets are critical to meeting global energy demand. As a result, we are increasing the midpoint of our 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance by $130 million to reflect a constructive oil macro environment and extended ownership of our Canadian NGL business into May. The closing of the NGL divestiture will mark a transition to a premier pure play crude oil midstream provider. We remain focused on executing key initiatives in 2026, including closing the pending NGL sale and realizing $100 million of contribution between Cactus III synergies and capturing efficiencies across our system. The combination of these internal initiatives coupled with a healthy oil macro backdrop positions Plains with momentum into 2027 and beyond. Finally, we remain committed to financial discipline and maintaining a strong balance sheet, while continuing to return capital to unit holders," said Willie Chiang, Chairman, CEO and President.
