Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Basis of Presentation


Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of all consolidated subsidiaries after the elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions. Certain amounts and footnote disclosures in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, none of which impacted our previously reported net income, earnings per unit or partners’ capital. In management’s opinion, all necessary adjustments to fairly present our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented have been made and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.


Significant Accounting Policies


There were no material changes in our significant accounting policies from those described in our 20162020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Below isDuring the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded an update$80.3 million full impairment of the goodwill associated with our accounting policies related to GoodwillPowder River Basin reporting unit based on events that occurred during 2020 which resulted in a significant decrease in the forecasted cash flows and Unit-Based Compensation, and a description of Crestwood Equity's Long Term Incentive Plan.

Goodwill. The goodwill impairments recorded during the first quarter of 2016 primarily resulted from increasing the discount rates utilized in determining the fair value of the reporting units considering the significant, sustained decrease in the market price of our common units and the continued decrease in commodity prices and its impact on the midstream industry and our customers during that period. We utilized the income approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units given the limited availability of comparable market-based transactions as of March 31, 2016, and we utilized discount rates ranging from 10% to 19% in applying the income approach to determine the fair value of our reporting units with goodwill as of March 31, 2016.

Note 3 – Acquisition

In April 2020, we acquired several NGL storage and rail-to-truck terminals from Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. for approximately $162 million. The acquired assets include 7 MMBbls of NGL storage and 7 terminals. These assets are included in our consolidated financial statements.

Crestwood Equity Long Term Incentive Plan. As of September 30, 2017, Crestwood Equity had 404,847 performance units outstanding under the Crestwood Equity Partners LP Long Term Incentive Plan (Crestwood LTIP) that were issued in 2017.marketing, supply and logistics segment. The performance units are designed to provide an incentive for continuous employment to certain key employees. The vesting of performance units is subject to the attainment of certain performance and market goals over a three-year period, and entitle a participant to receive common units of Crestwood Equity without payment of an exercise price upon vesting. As of September 30, 2017, we had total unamortized compensation expense of approximately $7.6 milliontransaction costs related to these performance units, which we expect will be amortized during the next three years. We recognized compensation expense of approximately $0.9 million and $2.9 million under the Crestwood LTIP related to these performance unitsthis acquisition were not material during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, which is included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.2020.


New Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

As of September 30, 2017, the following accounting standards had not yet been adopted by us:

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance. We anticipate utilizing the modified retrospective method to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently applying the provisions of the standard to our aggregated listing of gathering and processing, storage and transportation, and marketing, supply and logistics revenue contracts that involve revenue generating activities that occur after January 1, 2018. We are also in the process of implementing appropriate changes to our processes, systems and controls to support the accounting and disclosure requirements of the new standard. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, and currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying certain capital expenditure reimbursements received from our customers as deferred revenue rather than as reductions of property, plant and equipment in our consolidated financial statements.  We currently anticipate that approximately $60 million to $70 million of these net reimbursements will be reclassified to net deferred revenue on January 1, 2018, which would result in a $15 million to $25 million cumulative effect of accounting change being recorded as an increase to partners' capital on January 1, 2018.  In addition, we currently believe that the standard will require us to begin classifying service revenues on certain of our gathering and processing contracts as reductions of costs of product sold prospectively beginning January 1, 2018.  We continue to evaluate the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, especially as it relates to non-cash consideration received under certain of our gathering, processing, storage and transportation contracts.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which revises the accounting for leases by requiring certain leases to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, and requiring companies to disclose additional information about their leasing arrangements. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2019 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. We expect to adopt the provisions of this standard effective January 1, 2018 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which changes the annual quantitative goodwill impairment test to eliminate the current two step method and replace it with a single test to determine if goodwill is impaired and the amount of any impairment. We are required to adopt the provisions of this standard by January 1, 2020 and are currently evaluating the impact that this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.

(Kinder Morgan) in a series of transactions. Based on these anticipated transactions, we recorded our share of a loss on long-lived assets (including goodwill) recorded by our Stagecoach Gas equity investment associated with the anticipated sale. This eliminated our $51.3 million historical basis difference between our investment balance and operate a natural gas gathering system (the Nautilus gathering system) in SWEPI’s operated positionthe equity in the Delaware Permian. SWEPI has dedicatedunderlying net assets of Stagecoach Gas, and also resulted in a $35.5 million and $155.4 million reduction in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. In addition, our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were also reduced by our proportionate share of transaction costs of approximately $3.0 million related to the anticipated sale, which were paid by us in July 2021 on behalf of Stagecoach Gas. Our Stagecoach Gas investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.
(2)As of June 30, 2021, our equity in the underlying net assets of Tres Palacios Holdings LLC (Tres Holdings) exceeded the carrying value of our investment balance by approximately $22.1 million. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded amortization of approximately $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, related to this excess basis, which is reflected as an increase in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates in our consolidated statements of operations.

(1)    In July 2021, we received cash distributions from Tres Holdings and a high pressure delivery point. Crestwood Permian Basin provides gathering, dehydration, compressionof approximately $2.5 million and liquids handling services$3.4 million, respectively. In connection with the anticipated sale of Stagecoach Gas, in July 2021, Stagecoach Gas closed on the sale of certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to SWEPI on a fixed fee basis. In October 2017, Shell Midstream Partners L.P. (Shell Midstream), a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc, purchasedKinder Morgan and distributed to us approximately $613.9 million as our proportionate share of the gross proceeds received from the sale. We utilized approximately $3 million of these proceeds to pay transaction costs related to the sale described above, $40 million of these proceeds to pay our contingent consideration obligation and related accrued interest described below, and the remaining proceeds to repay a 50% equityportion of the amounts outstanding under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility.

Other

Contingent Consideration. Pursuant to the Stagecoach Gas limited liability company agreement, we are required to make $57 million of payments to CEGP because certain performance targets on growth capital projects were not achieved by December 31, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we paid $19 million to CEGP related to this obligation. At June 30, 2021, our consolidated balance sheet reflects a $38 million liability related to this obligation, of which $19 million is classified as current. We accrued interest of approximately $2.1 million related to this obligation which is included in Crestwood Permian Basin for approximately $37.9 million in cash.accrued expenses and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2021. In July 2021, we repaid all amounts, including accrued interest, related to this obligation.


Guarantee. CEQP issued a guarantee in conjunction with the Crestwood Permian Basin gas gathering agreement with SWEPI described above, under which CEQP has agreedwould be required to fund 100% of the costspay up to build the Nautilus gathering system (which is currently estimated to cost $180$10 million of which approximately $72.7 million has been spent through September 30, 2017) if Crestwood Permian fails to do so.honor its obligations to Crestwood Permian Basin LLC, a 50% equity investment of Crestwood Permian, in the event Crestwood Permian Basin LLC fails to satisfy its obligations under its gas gathering agreement with a third party. We do not believe that it is probable that this guarantee is probable of resultingwill result in future losses based on our assessment of the nature of the guarantee, the financial condition of the guaranteed party and the period of time that the guarantee has been outstanding, and as a result, we have not recorded a liability related to this guarantee on our consolidated balance sheetsheets at SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 and December 31, 2016.2020.


On June 21, 2017, we contributed to Crestwood Permian 100% of theequity interest of Crestwood New Mexico Pipeline LLC (Crestwood New Mexico), our wholly-owned subsidiary that owns our Delaware Basin assets located in Eddy County, New Mexico. This contribution was treated as a transaction between entities under common control (because of our relationship with First Reserve), and accordingly we deconsolidated Crestwood New Mexico and our investment in Crestwood Permian was increased by the historical book value of these assets of approximately $69.4 million. In conjunction with this contribution, First Reserve has agreed to contribute to Crestwood Permian the first $151 million of capital cost required to fund the expansion of the Delaware Basin assets, which includes a new processing plant located in Orla, Texas and associated pipelines (Orla processing plant).

Pursuant to Crestwood Permian's limited liability company agreement, we will receive 100% of Crestwood New Mexico's available cash (as defined in the limited liability company agreement) until the earlier of the Orla processing plant in-service date or June 30, 2018, at which time the distributions will be based on the members respective ownership percentages. Because our ownership and distribution percentages will differ during this period, equity earnings from Crestwood Permian is determined using the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV) method. Under the HLBV method, a calculation is prepared at each balance sheet date to determine the amount that we would receive if Crestwood Permian were to liquidate all of its assets, as valued in accordance with GAAP, and distribute that cash to the members. The difference between the calculated liquidation distribution amounts at the beginning and the end of the reporting period, after adjusting for capital contributions and distributions, is our share of the earnings or losses from the equity investment for the period, which approximates how earnings are allocated under the terms of the limited liability company agreement.

Stagecoach Gas Services LLC. In June 2016, we contributed to Stagecoach Gas Services LLC (Stagecoach Gas) the entities owning the Northeast storage and transportation assets. Additionally, Con Edison Gas Pipeline Storage Northeast, LLC (CEGP), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Consolidated Edison, Inc., contributed $945 million to Stagecoach Gas in exchange for a 50% equity interest in Stagecoach Gas, and Stagecoach Gas distributed to us the cash proceeds received (net of approximately $3 million of cash transferred to the joint venture) from CEGP. Pursuant to the Stagecoach Gas limited liability company agreement, we may be required to make payments of up to $57 million to CEGP after December 31, 2020 if certain criteria are not met by Stagecoach Gas by December 31, 2020, including achieving certain performance targets on growth capital projects. We do not believe that this provision is probable of resulting in future payments to CEGP, and as a result we have not recorded a liability on our balance sheet as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

We deconsolidated the Northeast storage and transportation assets as a result of this transaction discussed above and began accounting for our 50% equity interest in Stagecoach under the equity method of accounting. We recognized a loss on the deconsolidation of the Northeast storage and transportation assets of approximately $32.9 million.

Note 56 – Risk Management


We are exposed to certain market risks related to our ongoing business operations. These risks include exposure to changing commodity prices. We utilize derivative instruments to manage our exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, which is discussed below. Additional information related to our derivatives is discussed in Note 6.7.

Commodity Derivative Instruments and Price Risk Management


Risk Management Activities


We sell NGLs (such as propane, ethane, butane and heating oil), crude oil and natural gas to energy relatedenergy-related businesses and may use a variety of financial and other instruments including forward contracts involving physical delivery of NGLs, heatingcrude oil and crude oil.natural gas. We periodically enter into offsetting positions to economically hedge against the exposure our customer contracts create. Certain of these contracts and positions are derivative instruments. We do not designate any of our commodity-based derivatives as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. Our commodity-based derivatives are reflected at fair value in theour consolidated balance sheets, and changes in the fair value of these derivatives that impact the consolidated statements of operations are reflected in costs of product/services sold. DuringOur commodity-based derivatives that are settled with physical commodities are reflected as an increase to product revenues, and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,commodity inventory that is utilized to satisfy those physical obligations is reflected as an increase to product costs in our consolidated statements of operations.

Credit Risk


Inherent in our contractual portfolio are certain credit risks. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. We take an active role in managing credit risk and have established control procedures, which are reviewed on an ongoing basis. We attempt to minimize credit risk exposure through credit policies and periodic monitoring procedures as well as through customer deposits, letters of credit and entering into netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain financial transactions, as deemed appropriate. The counterparties associated with our price risk management activities are primarily energy marketers and propane retailers, resellers and dealers.


Certain of our derivative instruments have credit limits that require us to post collateral. The amount of collateral required to be posted is a function of the net liability position of the derivative as well as our established credit limit with the respective counterparty. If our credit rating were to change, the counterparties could require us to post additional collateral. The amount of additional collateral that would be required to be posted would vary depending on the extent of change in our credit rating as well as the requirements of the individual counterparty.

Note 67 – Fair Value Measurements


The accounting standard for fair value measurement establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:


Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and US government treasury securities.


Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various

21

Table of Contents


assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as over the counter (OTC) forwards, options and physical exchanges.


Level 3—Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

Credit Facility

The fair value of the amounts outstanding under our CMLP credit facility approximates the carrying amounts as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, due primarily to the variable nature of the interest rate of the instrument, which is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Senior Notes

We estimate the fair value of our senior notes primarily based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issuances (representing a Level 2 fair value measurement). The following table reflects the carrying value (reduced for deferred financing costs associated with the respective notes) and fair value of our senior notes (in millions):

Financial Assets and Liabilities


As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 and December 31, 2016,2020, we held certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which include our derivative instruments related to heating oil, crude oil, NGLs and NGLs.natural gas. Our derivative instruments consist of forwards, swaps, futures, physical exchanges and options.


Our derivative instruments that are traded on the NYMEXNew York Mercantile Exchange have been categorized as Level 1.


Our derivative instruments also include OTC contracts, which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair values of these derivative instruments are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. These instruments have been categorized as Level 2.


Our OTC options are valued based on the Black Scholes option pricing model that considers time value and volatility of the underlying commodity. The inputs utilized in the model are based on publicly available information as well as broker quotes. These options have been categorized as Level 2.


Our financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

Credit Facility


At September 30, 2017,Crestwood Midstream’s five-year $1.25 billion revolving credit facility (the CMLP Credit Facility) is available to fund acquisitions, working capital and internal growth projects and for general partnership purposes.

Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

Linde Lawsuit. On December 23, 2019, Linde Engineering North America Inc. (Linde) filed a lawsuit in Note 4.the District Court of Harris County, Texas alleging that Arrow Field Services, LLC, our consolidated subsidiary, and Crestwood Midstream recognizedbreached a gain on extinguishmentcontract entered into in March 2018 under which Linde was to provide engineering, procurement and construction services to us related to the completion of debtthe construction of approximately $10the Bear Den II cryogenic processing plant. Linde claims damages of $55 million in conjunctionunpaid invoices and other damages. This matter is not an insurable event based on our insurance policies, and we are unable to predict the outcome for this matter.

General. We are periodically involved in litigation proceedings. If we determine that a negative outcome is probable and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable, then we accrue the estimated amount. The results of litigation proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. We could incur judgments, enter into settlements or revise our expectations regarding the early tenderoutcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid and/or accrued. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had approximately $36.3 million and $10.4 million accrued for outstanding legal matters. Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures for which we can estimate will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.

Any loss estimates are inherently subjective, based on currently available information, and are subject to management’s judgment and various assumptions. Due to the inherently subjective nature of these notes.estimates and the uncertainty and unpredictability surrounding the outcome of legal proceedings, actual results may differ materially from any amounts that have been accrued.

Environmental Compliance

Our operations are subject to stringent and complex laws and regulations pertaining to worker health, safety, and the environment. We are subject to laws and regulations at the federal, state, regional and local levels that relate to air and water quality, hazardous and solid waste management and disposal, and other environmental matters.

During 2019, we experienced produced water releases on our Arrow water gathering system located within the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in arrearsNorth Dakota. In January 2021, we received a Notice of Violation and Opportunity to Confer from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to the water releases. In March 2021, we executed a Consent Agreement with the EPA and agreed to pay $0.1 million for penalties related to the water releases. The EPA provided the public a 30-day period to comment on April 1the Consent Agreement and October 1is currently reviewing the comments received. We expect to finalize and settle the Consent Agreement after the EPA completes its review and response, if necessary, to the comments received. We are also substantially complete with all remediation efforts related to the water releases and continue to monitor any remaining impacts. We will continue our remediation efforts to ensure that lands impacted by the produced water releases are fully remediated. In response to the water releases, we removed several miles of each year, beginning October 1, 2017.gathering pipeline from the system that remained in service and replaced those sections with a pipeline composed of higher capacity material that is more suitable to the environment and climate conditions in the Bakken. The net proceeds from this offeringreplaced pipeline increased water gathering capacity on the Arrow system and furthers our commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship in the areas where we live and operate. We believe these events are insurable under our policies. We have not recorded an insurance receivable as of June 30, 2021.

At both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our accrual of approximately $492$1.3 million were usedwas based on our undiscounted estimate of amounts we will spend on compliance with environmental and other regulations, and any associated fines or penalties. We estimate that our potential liability for reasonably possible outcomes related to repay amounts outstanding under the 2020 Senior Notesour environmental exposures could range from approximately $1.3 million to $1.9 million at June 30, 2021.

Self-Insurance

We utilize third-party insurance subject to varying retention levels of self-insurance, which management considers prudent. Such self-insurance relates to losses and the 2022 Senior Notes.

In May 2017, Crestwood Midstream filed a registration statementliabilities primarily associated with the SEC under which it offered to exchange new senior notes for anymedical claims, workers’ compensation claims and all outstanding 2025 Senior Notes. Crestwood Midstream completed the exchange offer in July 2017. The termsgeneral, product, vehicle and environmental liability. Losses are accrued based upon management’s estimates of the exchange notesaggregate liability for claims incurred using certain assumptions followed in the insurance industry and based on past experience. The primary assumption utilized is actuarially determined loss development factors. The loss development factors are substantially identicalbased primarily on historical data. Our self insurance reserves could be affected if future claim developments differ from the historical trends. We believe changes in health care costs, trends in health care claims of our employee base, accident frequency and severity and other factors could materially affect the estimate for these liabilities. We continually monitor changes in employee demographics, incident and claim type and evaluate our insurance accruals and adjust our accruals based on our evaluation of these qualitative data points. We are liable for the development of claims for our previously disposed of retail propane operations, provided they were reported prior to August 1, 2012.

Guarantees and Indemnifications

We are involved in various joint ventures that sometimes require financial and performance guarantees. In a financial guarantee, we are obligated to make payments if the guaranteed party fails to make payments under, or violates the terms of, the 2025 Senior Notes, exceptfinancial arrangement. In a performance guarantee, we provide assurance that the exchange notesguaranteed party will execute on the terms of the contract. If they do not, we are freely tradable.required to perform on their behalf. We also periodically provide indemnification arrangements related to assets or businesses we have sold. For a further description of our guarantees associated with our joint ventures, see Note 5.


At SeptemberOur potential exposure under guarantee and indemnification arrangements can range from a specified amount to an unlimited dollar amount, depending on the nature of the claim, specificity as to duration, and the particular transaction. As of June 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream was in compliance with all2021 and December 31, 2020, we have no amounts accrued for these guarantees.

Note 8 - Earnings Per Limited Partner Unit

Our net income (loss) attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners is allocated to the subordinated and limited partner unitholders based on their ownership percentage after giving effect to net income attributable to the Preferred Units. We calculate basic net income per limited partner unit using the two-class method. Diluted net income per limited partner unit is computed using the treasury stock method, which considers the impact to net income attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners and limited partner units from the potential issuance of limited partner units.
We exclude potentially dilutive securities from the determination of diluted earnings per unit (as well as their related income statement impacts) when their impact on net income attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners per limited partner unit is anti-dilutive. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, we excluded a weighted-average of 7,125,744 and 6,968,210 common units (representing preferred units), a weighted-average of 7,277,340 common units in both periods (representing Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units), and a weighted-average of 438,789 common units in both periods (representing subordinated units). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we excluded a weighted-average of 6,502,907 and 6,358,626 common units (representing preferred units), and a weighted-average of 8,669,633 common units in both periods (representing Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units) and a weighted-average of 438,789 common units in both periods (representing subordinated units). See Note 9 for additional information regarding the potential conversion of our preferred units and Crestwood Niobrara's preferred units to common units.

Common Units

On August 4, 2017, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with certain financial institutions (each, a Manager), under which we may offer and sell from time to time through one or more of the Managers, common units having an aggregate offering price of up to $250 million. Common units sold pursuant to this at-the-market (ATM) equity distribution program are issued under a registration statement that became effective on April 12, 2017. We will pay the Managers an aggregate fee of up to 2.0% (which totaled $0.2 millionpartners’ capital during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017)first quarter of the gross sales price per common unit sold under our ATM equity distribution program.

In February 2021, Crestwood Equity issued 50,000 performance units under the Crestwood Equity Partners LP Long Term Incentive Plan (Crestwood LTIP). The performance units are designed to provide an incentive for continuous employment to certain key employees. The vesting of performance units is subject to the attainment of certain performance and market goals over a three-year period, and entitle a participant to receive common units of Crestwood Equity without payment of an exercise price upon vesting. As of June 30, 2021, we had total unamortized compensation expense of approximately $1.0 million related to these performance units, which we expect will be amortized during the next three years. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized compensation expense of less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million related to these performance units, which is included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.

than $0.1 million accrued for outstanding legal matters. Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures for which we can estimate will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.

Any loss estimates are inherently subjective, based on currently available information, and are subject to management's judgment and various assumptions. Dueadded back to the inherently subjective naturenumerator for purposes of these estimatesthe if-converted calculation.

We exclude potentially dilutive securities from the determination of diluted earnings per unit (as well as their related income statement impacts) when their impact is anti-dilutive.

Environmental Compliance

Our operations are subject to stringent and complex laws and regulations pertaining to worker health, safety, and the environment. We are subject to laws and regulations atCrestwood Holdings Transactions, in March 2021, CEQP retired the federal, state, regional and local levels that relate to air and water quality, hazardous and solid waste management and disposal and other environmental matters. The cost of planning, designing, constructing and operating our facilities must incorporate compliance with environmental laws and regulations and safety standards. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may trigger a variety of administrative, civil and potentially criminal enforcement measures.

During 2014, we experienced three releases totaling approximately 28,000 barrels of produced water on our Arrow water gathering system located onsubordinated units. For additional information regarding the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota. We immediately notified the National Response Center, the Three Affiliated Tribes and numerous other regulatory authorities, and thereafter contained and cleaned up the releases completely and placed the impacted segments of these water lines back into service. In May 2015, we experienced a release of approximately 5,200 barrels of produced water on our Arrow water gathering system, immediately notified numerous regulatory authorities and other third parties, and thereafter contained and cleaned up the releases. 

In October 2014, we received data requests from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to the 2014 water releases and we responded to the requests during the first half of 2015.  In April 2015, the EPA issued a Notice of Potential Violation (NOPV) under the Clean Water Act relating to the largestretirement of the 2014 water releases. subordinated units, see Note 1 and Note 11.

Note 13 – Segments

We responded to the NOPV in May 2015,have 3 operating and in April 2017, we entered into an Administrative Order on Consent (the Order) with the EPA. The Order requires us to continue to remediatereportable segments: (i) gathering and monitor the impacted area for no less than four years unlessprocessing; (ii) storage and transportation; and (iii) marketing, supply and logistics. Our corporate operations include all goals of the Ordergeneral and administrative expenses that are satisfied earlier. The Order does not preclude the EPA from seeking to impose fines and penalties as a result of the water releases.

On March 3, 2015, we received a grand jury subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office in Bismarck, North Dakota, seeking documents and information relating to the largest of the three 2014 water releases. We provided the requested information during the second quarter of 2015 and key employees were interviewed by the United States’ Attorney in December 2015. On September 13, 2017, we received a notice from the United States Department of Justice that it completed the investigation with no charges being filed against us. In August 2015, we received a notice of violation from the Three Affiliated Tribes' Environmental Division relatedallocated to our 2014 produced water releases on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. The notice of violation imposes fines and requests reimbursements exceeding $1.1 million; however, the notice of violation was stayed on September 15, 2015, upon our posting of a performance bond for the amount contemplated by the notice and pending the outcome of ongoing settlement discussions with the regulatory agencies asserting jurisdiction over the 2014 produced water releases.

We will continue our remediation efforts to ensure the impacted lands are restored to their prior state. We believe these releases are insurable events under our policies, and we have notified our carriers of these events. We have not recorded an insurance receivable as of September 30, 2017.

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our accrual of approximately $2.7 million and $2.1 million is based on our undiscounted estimate of amounts we will spend on compliance with environmental and other regulations, and any associated fines or penalties. We estimate that our potential liability for reasonably possible outcomes related to our environmental exposures (including the Arrow water releases described above) could range from approximately $2.7 million to $4.2 million at September 30, 2017.

Self-Insurance

We utilize third-party insurance subject to varying retention levels of self-insurance, which management considers prudent. Such self-insurance relates to losses and liabilities primarily associated with medical claims, workers' compensation claims and general, product, vehicle and environmental liability. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, CEQP's self-insurance reserves were $15.8 million and $15.6 million. We estimate that $10.6 million of this balance will be paid subsequent to September 30, 2018. As such, CEQP has classified $10.6 million in other long-term liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2017. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, CMLP's self insurance reserves were $12.9 million and $12.2 million. CMLP estimates that $8.0 million of this balance will be paid subsequent to September 30, 2018. As such, CMLP has classified $8.0 million in other long-term liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2017.

Guarantees and Indemnifications. We are involved in various joint ventures that sometimes require financial and performance guarantees. In a financial guarantee, we are obligated to make payments if the guaranteed party fails to make payments under, or violates the terms of, the financial arrangement. In a performance guarantee, we provide assurance that the guaranteed party will execute on the terms of the contract. If they do not, we are required to perform on their behalf. We also periodically provide indemnification arrangements related to assets or businesses we have sold.reportable segments. For a further description of our guarantees associated with our joint ventures,operating and reporting segments, see Note 4, and for a further description1. We assess the performance of our guarantees associated withoperating segments based on EBITDA, which is defined as income before income taxes, plus debt-related costs (interest and debt expense, net and loss on modification/extinguishment of debt) and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense.

Note 13 – Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

Crestwood Midstream is a holding company (Parent) and owns no operating assets and has no significant operations independent of its subsidiaries. Obligations under Crestwood Midstream's senior notes and its credit facility are jointly and severally guaranteed by substantially all of its subsidiaries, except for Crestwood Infrastructure Holdings LLC, Crestwood Niobrara, Crestwood Pipeline and Storage Northeast LLC (Crestwood Northeast), PRBIC and Tres Holdings and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries). Crestwood Midstream Finance Corp., the co-issuer of its senior notes, is Crestwood Midstream's 100% owned subsidiary and has no material assets, operations, revenues or cash flows other than those related to its service as co-issuer of the Crestwood Midstream senior notes.

The tables below present condensed consolidating financial statements for Crestwood Midstream as Parent on a stand-alone, unconsolidated basis, and Crestwood Midstream's combined guarantor and combined non-guarantor subsidiaries as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.  The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations, cash flows or financial position had the subsidiaries operated as independent entities.

The condensed consolidating financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 include reclassifications that were made to conform to the current year presentation, none of which impacted previously reported net income (loss) or partners’ capital. In particular, the condensed consolidating statement of operations was modified to consider the impact of net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling partners in subsidiaries in arriving at equity in net income (loss) of subsidiaries in the parent and eliminations columns of those statements.

Note 14– Subsequent Event

In October 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with an affiliate of Kissner Group Holdings LP to sell 100% of our equity interests in US Salt, LLC (US Salt) for approximately $225 million. US Salt is a solution mining and salt production company located on the shores of Seneca Lake near Watkins Glen in Schuyler County, New York. US Salt is included in our marketing, supply and logistics segment. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement (including customary closing conditions and purchase price adjustments), we expect to close the transaction during the fourth quarter of 2017. The impact of this transaction has not been reflected in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying footnotes and Part II, Item 7. Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 20162020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


This report, including information included or incorporated by reference herein, contains forward-looking statements concerning the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our company and its subsidiaries. These forward-looking statements include:


statements that are not historical in nature, including, but not limited to: (i) our belief that anticipated cash from operations, cash distributions from entities that we control, and borrowing capacity under our credit facility will be sufficient to meet our anticipated liquidity needs for the foreseeable future; and (ii) our belief that we do not have material potential liability in connection with legal proceedings that would have a significant financial impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows; and (iii) our belief that our assets will continue to benefit from the development of unconventional shale plays as significant supply basins; and


statements preceded by, followed by or that contain forward-looking terminology including the words “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend” or the negation thereof, or similar expressions.


Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:


our ability to successfully implement our business plan for our assets and operations;
governmental legislation and regulations;
industry factors that influence the supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs;
industry factors that influence the demand for services in the markets (particularly unconventional shale plays) in which we provide services;
weather conditions;
outbreak of illness, pandemic or any other public health crisis, including the COVID-19 pandemic;
the availability of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs, and the price of those commodities, to consumers relative to the price of alternative and competing fuels;
the availability of storage for hydrocarbons;
the ability of members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other oil-producing countries to agree and maintain oil price and production controls;
economic conditions;
costs or difficulties related to the integration of acquisitions and success of our existing businesses and acquisitions;joint ventures’ operations;
environmental claims;
operating hazards and other risks incidental to the provision of midstream services, including gathering, compressing, treating, processing, fractionating, transporting and storing energy products (i.e., crude oil, NGLs and natural gas) and related products (i.e., produced water);
interest rates;
the price and availability of debt and equity financing;financing, including our ability to raise capital through alternatives like joint ventures; and
the ability to sell or monetize assets, in the current market, to reduce indebtedness, to repurchase our equity securities, to make strategic investments, or for other general partnership purposes.


For additional factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements, see Part I, Item IA.1A. Risk Factors of our 20162020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.10-K and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


Outlook and Trends


Our business objective is to create long-term value for our unitholders. We expect to create long-term value for our investors by consistently generating stable operating marginmargins and improvedimproving cash flows from our diversified midstream operations by prudently

Table of Contents

financing investments in our investments,assets and expansions of our portfolio, maximizing throughput and optimizing services on our assets, and effectively controlling our capital expenditures, operating and administrative costs. Our business strategy depends, in part, on our ability to provide increased services to our customers at competitive fees, including opportunities to expand our services resulting from expansions, organic growth projects and acquisitions that can be financed appropriately.


We have positioned the Company to generate consistent results intaken a low commodity price environment without sacrificing revenue upside. For example, manynumber of our G&P assets are supported by long-term, core acreage dedications in shale plays that are economic to varying degrees based upon natural gas, NGL and crude oil prices, the availability of infrastructure to flow production to market, and the operational and financial condition of our diverse customer base. We believe the diversity of our asset portfolio, the risk and cost sharing nature of our strategic joint ventures, the wide range of services provided by our

42



investments, and our extensive customer portfolio collectively position us to be successful in the current market, which has been impacted by prolonged low commodity prices. In addition, a substantial portion of our midstream investments are based on fixed fee, take-or-pay or minimum volume commitment agreements that ensure a minimum level of cash flow regardless of actual commodity prices or volumetric throughput.

For the remainder of 2017 and beyond, we will continue to execute on our plansteps to better position the Company to emerge from this challenging market environment as a stronger, better capitalized company that can sustainably resume growingaccretively grow cash flows and as an industry leader in Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) efforts.

In March 2021, CEQP acquired approximately 11.5 million CEQP common units, 0.4 million subordinated units of CEQP and 100% of the equity interests of Crestwood Marcellus Holdings LLC and Crestwood Gas Services Holdings LLC (whose assets consisted solely of CEQP common and subordinated units and 1% of the limited partner interests in Crestwood Holdings LP) from Crestwood Holdings, and signed a definitive agreement to acquire the general partner and the remaining 99% limited partner interests of Crestwood Holdings LP (whose assets consist solely of its distributions.ownership interest in Crestwood Equity GP LLC, which owns CEQP’s non-economic general partner interest) (collectively the Crestwood Holdings Transactions) for $268 million in cash. The acquisition of the general partner and limited partner interests of Crestwood Holdings LP will close on or before the 180th day after the date of the initial closing of the Crestwood Holdings Transactions. The purchase price was funded through borrowings under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility. The Crestwood Holdings Transactions resulted in CEQP retiring the common and subordinated units acquired from Crestwood Holdings.

The Crestwood Holdings Transactions were a significant step in our strategy to drive peer leading governance and set the stage for future growth by simplifying our organizational structure, increasing our public float and liquidity and enhancing our financial flexibility as we strive to generate long-term value for our unitholders. Additionally, in connection with the Crestwood Holdings Transactions, Crestwood Holdings repaid all of its outstanding debt which further enhances CEQP’s future flexibility around capital allocation priorities and eliminates any potential future risks around a change of control related to Crestwood Holdings’ debt as previously described in our Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Once the Crestwood Holdings Transactions are fully closed, CEQP will transition to a traditional public company governance structure with a publicly elected board of directors which further ensures alignment between management and the Board of Directors with common unitholders and is consistent with our long-term ESG program.

To further enhance our financial flexibility and execute our long-term business strategy, in July 2021, Stagecoach Gas sold certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan, Inc. (Kinder Morgan) for approximately $1.195 billion plus certain purchase price adjustments (Initial Closing) pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated as of May 31, 2021 between our wholly owned subsidiary, Crestwood Pipeline and Storage Northeast LLC (Crestwood Northeast), Con Edison Gas Pipeline and Storage Northeast, LLC (CEGP), a wholly owned subsidiary of Consolidated Edison, Inc., Stagecoach Gas and Kinder Morgan. Stagecoach Gas distributed to us approximately $614 million as our proportionate share of the gross proceeds received from the sale. Following the Initial Closing and subject to certain customary closing conditions, Crestwood Northeast and CEGP will sell each of their equity interests in Stagecoach Gas and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Twin Tier Pipeline LLC (Second Closing) to Kinder Morgan for approximately $30 million, subject to certain closing adjustments. We anticipate the Second Closing to occur in the first quarter of 2022. The Stagecoach Gas divestiture will remain focused on efficiently allocatingenable us to decrease the net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of our revolving credit facility to 3.6x, which should position us to utilize a greater portion of our cash flow going forward to increase returns to our unitholders through continued distributions, prudent capital investments around our higher-growth gathering and processing assets, and opportunistic repurchases of our preferred and common units under our approved $175 million unit repurchase program described below in “Liquidity and Sources of Capital.”

In addition to the strategic steps discussed above, we have also taken steps to (i) minimize capital expenditures eliminating costs (through increasedto better align with development activity by our gathering and processing customers; (ii) realign our organization to reduce operating efficiencies and cost discipline)administrative expenses; (iii) engage with our customers to maintain volumes across our asset portfolio; (iv) optimize our storage, transportation and strengtheningmarketing assets to take advantage of regional commodity price volatility; and (v) evaluate our debt and equity structure to preserve liquidity and ensure balance sheet. We expect to focus on expansion and greenfield opportunities in the Delaware Permian and the Bakken shale as further described in "Segment Highlights" below.

Regulatory Matters

Many aspects of the energy midstream sector, such as crude-by-rail activities and pipeline integrity, have experienced increased regulatory oversightsheet strength. Given our efforts over the past few years. Prioryears to improve the partnership’s competitive position in the businesses we operate, manage costs and improve margins and create a stronger balance sheet, we believe the Company is well positioned to execute its business plan.

Recent Developments

Bakken DAPL Matter. In July 2020, a U.S. District Court (District Court) ordered the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) to cease operation based on an alleged procedural permitting failure. On August 5, 2020, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (D.C. Circuit) stayed the DAPL shutdown, and set an expedited briefing schedule to determine the merits of the District Court’s decision. The D.C. Circuit issued an opinion on January 26, 2021, which upheld the District Court’s decision on the merits, but did not rule on whether DAPL should be prohibited from continued operation. The plaintiffs sought

another injunction against DAPL’s continued operation, which was denied by the District Court in May 2021. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is currently conducting an environmental impact statement, which is expected to be complete in March 2022 and we expect that DAPL will remain in operation while the environmental impact statement is being completed.

The Arrow gathering system currently connects to the 2016 presidential election, we expected the trend of greater regulatory oversight to continueDAPL, Hiland, Tesoro and True Companies’ Bridger Four Bears pipelines, providing significant downstream delivery capacity for the foreseeable future, However, the election results and anticipated changes in policy could lessen the degree of regulatory scrutiny we face in the near term.

Segment Highlights

Below is a discussion of events that highlight our core business and financing activities.

Gathering and Processing

Bakken. In the Bakken, we are expanding and upgrading our Arrow system water handling facilities, increasing natural gas capacity on the system, and constructing a 30 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) natural gas processing facility and associated pipelines thatcustomers. Additionally, we expect to place into service in late 2017. We believe the installation of a gas processing solution on thecan transport Arrow system will, among other things, spur greater development activity around the Arrow system, allow us to provide greater flow assurancecrude volumes to our producer customers, and reduceCOLT Hub facility by pipeline or truck, which mitigates the downstream constraints currently experienced by producers on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. The anticipated cost of this natural gas processing facility and associated pipeline is approximately $115 million.In conjunction with this project, we are negotiating various amendments and extensions with several of our producer customers, and the impact of these contract negotiations is not expected to have a material impact to our 2017 resultsproducers with the ability to access multiple markets out of operations.the basin.

Delaware Permian. InRegulatory Matters

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued a Notice of Inquiry (NOI) on April 19, 2018 (2018 NOI) initiating a review of its policies on certification of natural gas pipelines, including an examination of its long-standing Policy Statement on Certification of New Interstate Natural Gas Pipeline Facilities (1999 Policy Statement), issued in 1999, that is used to determine whether to grant certificates for new pipeline projects. On February 18, 2021, the Delaware Permian, we have identified gatheringFERC issued another NOI (2021 NOI), reopening its review of the 1999 Policy Statement. Comments on the 2021 NOI were due on May 26, 2021, and processing and transportation opportunities in and around our existing assets, including our joint ventures. Through our Crestwood Permian joint venture,although the FERC has not taken any further action regarding the 2018 NOI or 2021 NOI, we are expanding bothunable to predict what, if any, changes may be proposed as a result of the NOIs that will affect our processing capacity in the region, which includes the construction of a 200 MMcf/d natural gas processing facility in Orla, Texas, and associated pipelines, as well as our interconnection capacity to accommodate greater takeaway options for residue gas and NGLs. The initial cost of the expansion project is expected to cost approximately $170 million with an in-service date in the second half of 2018. We are also developing a crude oil and condensate storage terminal near Orla, Texas that would offer condensate stabilization, truck loading/unloading options and connections to third party pipelines. In addition, we are developing a produced water gathering, disposal and recycling facility in the Delaware Permian. We continue to believe that we are positioned well to benefit from the continued build-out of this world-class resource.pipeline operations or when such proposals, if any, might become effective.

On June 21, 2017, we contributed to Crestwood Permian 100% of theequity interest of Crestwood New Mexico Pipeline LLC (Crestwood New Mexico), our wholly-owned subsidiary that owns our Delaware Basin assets located in Eddy County, New Mexico. This contribution was treated as a transaction between entities under common control, and accordingly we deconsolidated Crestwood New Mexico and our investment in Crestwood Permian was increased by the historical book value of these assets of approximately $69.4 million. In conjunction with this contribution, First Reserve has agreed to contribute to Crestwood Permian the first $151 million of capital costs required to fund the expansion of the Delaware Basin assets, which includes the Orla processing plant and associated pipelines. In October 2017, CPB Subsidiary Holdings LLC, a wholly-subsidiary of Crestwood Permian, entered into a credit agreement with certain lenders. The five year term credit agreement allows for revolving loans, letters of credit and swingline loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150 million. Borrowings under the credit agreement will be used to fund expansion projects and for general corporate purposes.

Crestwood Permian Basin has a long-term agreement with SWEPI to construct, own and operate a natural gas gathering system in SWEPI's operated position in the Delaware Permian. SWEPI has dedicated to Crestwood Permian Basin approximately 100,000 acres and gathering rights for SWEPI's gas production across a large acreage position in Loving, Reeves, Ward and Culberson Counties, Texas. The Nautilus gathering system is designed to include 194 miles of low pressure gathering lines, 36

43



miles of high pressure trunklines and centralized compression facilities which are expandable over time as production increases, producing gas gathering capacity of approximately 250 MMcf/d. The initial build-out of the Nautilus gathering system was completed on June 6, 2017 and includes 20 receipt point meters, 60 miles of pipeline, a 24-mile high pressure header system, 10,800 horsepower of compression and a high pressure delivery point. Crestwood Permian Basin provides gathering, dehydration, compression and liquids handling services to SWEPI on a fixed fee basis. In October 2017, Shell Midstream purchased a 50% equity interest in Crestwood Permian Basin for approximately $37.9 million in cash. See Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 4 for additional information regarding Crestwood Permian Basin.

During the first half of 2017, we terminated an agreement with a large producer to develop a three-stream gathering system in Reeves County, Texas. We continue to work with this producer and other producers in the area for the potential development of future expansion projects.

Marketing, Supply and Logistics

During 2017, we commenced an in-depth assessment of our trucking and transportation operations to evaluate the markets in which our trucking and transportation business operates, its operating cost structure, customer service levels and organizational efficiencies. Based on this assessment, we, along with our Board of Directors, determined that our trucking and transportation operations should be realigned, including leadership changes, cost reductions, sizing of our fleet and the implementation of rate and profitability key performance indicators. Certain of these changes were implemented during 2017 and will continue throughout the remainder of the year, and we believe these changes will result in improved profitability for this business. Additionally, management plans to realign our trucking operations service capability to be more coordinated with our NGL, crude and water operations and less reliant on third party transportation services. This commercial realignment should allow us to optimize the use of available capacity and position us to reevaluate our trucking and transportation operations in future periods. We anticipate that these realignment efforts will be completed before the end of 2017, which includes the consolidation and relocation of our three corporate offices into two offices located in Houston and Kansas City.

In October 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with an affiliate of Kissner Group Holdings LP to sell 100% of our equity interests in US Salt, LLC (US Salt) for approximately $225 million. US Salt is a solution mining and salt production company located on the shores of Seneca Lake near Watkins Glen in Schuyler County, New York. We intend to use the proceeds from the divestiture to reduce borrowings under the CMLP credit facility and reinvest in on-going organic growth projects in the Bakken and Delaware Basin discussed above in our Gathering and Processing Segment Highlights. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement (including customary closing conditions and purchase price adjustments), we expect to close the transaction during the fourth quarter of 2017.

Through the execution of the strategic efforts described above, we expect to increase the stability and strength of the Company through a continued challenging and competitive market environment, which will position us to achieve our chief business objective to create long-term value for our unitholders.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our critical accounting estimates are consistent with those described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


How We Evaluate Our Operations
 
We evaluate our overall business performance based primarily on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We do not utilize depreciation, amortization and accretion expense in our key measures because we focus our performance management on cash flow generation and our assets have long useful lives.


EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA - We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are widely accepted financial indicators of a company'scompany’s operational performance and its ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and make distributions. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to our investors because it allows them to use the same performance measure analyzed internally by our management to evaluate the performance of our businesses and investments without regard to the manner in which they are financed or our capital structure. EBITDA is defined as income before income taxes, plus debt-related costs (interest and debt expense, net and gain (loss)loss on modification/extinguishment of debt) and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense. Adjusted EBITDA considers the adjusted earnings impact of our unconsolidated affiliates by adjusting our equity earnings or losses from our unconsolidated affiliates to reflect our proportionate share (based on the distribution percentage) of their EBITDA, excluding gains and losses on long-lived assets and other impairments. Adjusted EBITDA also considers the impact of certain significant items, such as unit-based compensation charges, gains or losses on long-lived assets, impairments of goodwill, third party costs incurred related to potential and completed acquisitions, certain environmental remediation costs, the change in fair value

44



of commodity inventory-related derivative contracts, costs associated with our 2017the realignment and restructuring of our Marketing, Supply and Logistics operations and related consolidation and relocation of our corporate offices,structure, and other transactions identified in a specific reporting period. The change in fair value of commodity inventory-related derivative contracts is considered in determining Adjusted EBITDA given that the timing of recognizing gains and losses on these derivative contracts differs from the recognition of revenue for the related underlying sale of inventory to which these derivatives relate. Changes in the fair value of other derivative contracts is not considered in determining Adjusted EBITDA given the relatively short-term nature of those derivative contracts. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, as they do not include deductions for items such as depreciation, amortization and accretion, interest and income taxes, which are necessary to maintain our business. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating cash flow or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations may vary among entities, so our computation may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.
See our reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in Results of Operations below.

Below is a discussion of the factors that impacted EBITDA by segment for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same periods in 2016.2020.


Gathering and Processing


EBITDA for our gathering and processing segment increased by approximately $5.8$39.9 million and $23.3$120.3 million for during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same periods in 2016.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, our2020.Our gathering and processing segment'ssegment’s EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was impacted by an $80.3 million goodwill impairment related to our Jackalope operations (see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2 for a further discussion of this impairment).

Our gathering and processing segment’s revenues increased by approximately $160.2$128.7 million and $438.8$133.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2016, partially offset by an increase in2020, while our costs of product/services sold ofincreased by approximately $152.5$99.3 million and $417.7$107.5 million. These during those same periods. The increases were primarily driven by higher volumes on our Arrow operations, which experiencedsystem (described below) and higher average prices (i.e., more than a $176.1 million and $442.3 million50% percent increase in revenues and a $166.1 million and $419.7 million increase in costs of product/services soldcommodity prices during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same periodsperiod in 2016. The increase in Arrow's revenues2020) that our gathering and costs was primarily driven by higher average pricesprocessing segment realized on Arrow'sits agreements under which it purchases and sells crude oil. In addition, our crude,oil, natural gas and waterNGLs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, Arrow’s natural gas gathering and processing volumes increased by 31%, 12%58% and 29%59%, respectively and during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021, Arrow’s natural gas gathering and processing volumes increased by 32% and 36%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. Partially offsetting the increase in Arrow’s revenues and costs of product/services sold for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were lower revenues from our Jackalope operations, which were driven by a 19% and 15% decrease in natural gas gathering and processing volumes, respectively, primarily due to its major customer connecting fewer wells to our system during the first quarter of 2021 as a result of lower commodity prices, coupled with its major customer shutting in production during that period as a result of unusual winter weather conditions.

Our gathering and processing segment’s operations and maintenance expenses decreased by approximately $4.6 million and $10.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to the sale of our Fayetteville assets in October 2020 and efforts we undertook starting in the second quarter of 2020 to reduce costs in response to lower commodity prices during that period.

Our gathering and processing segment’s EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was impacted by a loss on long-lived assets of approximately $3.6 million and $4.6 million, primarily related to the retirement of certain water gathering lines on our Arrow system.

Our gathering and processing segment’s EBITDA was also impacted by an increase in equity earnings of approximately $2.0 million and $0.4 million from our Crestwood Permian equity investment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, Crestwood Permian experienced an increase in its water gathering revenues and volumes compared to the same period in 2016,2020 primarily due to placing in-service its produced water gathering and disposal system in late second quarter of 2020. During the connection of 78 wells on our Arrow system during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 compared to 31 wells during the same period in 2016, and higher initial production rates2021, Crestwood Permian experienced on those connected wells in 2017 compared to 2016.

Partially offsetting thean increase in ourits gathering and processing segment's revenues and costs from our Arrow operations during the three months ended September 30, 2017volumes primarily due to increases in

commodity prices compared to the same period in 2016, were lower revenues and2020, partially offset by higher electricity costs of approximately $16.1 million and $11.4 million, respectively, from our Permian operations as a result of the deconsolidation of Crestwood New Mexico in June 2017 due to the contribution of these assets to Crestwood Permian. For a further discussion of this transaction, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 4.

Our gathering and processing segment's operations and maintenance expenses decreased approximately $1.2 million and $4.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 2016 due to continued cost-reduction efforts undertaken in our operations and the deconsolidation of Crestwood New Mexico.

The comparability of our G&P segment's EBITDA was impacted by an $8.6 million goodwill impairment recordedexperienced during the first quarter of 2016 related to our Marcellus operations. For a further discussion of our goodwill impairments recorded during 2016, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2.

Our gathering and processing segment's EBITDA was also impacted by a decrease in earnings from our unconsolidated affiliates of approximately $1.2 million and $8.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared2021 due to the same periods in 2016. The decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in revenues at our Jackalope equity investment as a result of the restructuring of its contracts with Chesapeake Energy Corporation (Chesapeake) effective January 1, 2017. Jackalope and Chesapeake replaced the cost-of-service based contract with a fixed-fee gathering and processing contractunusual winter weather conditions experienced during that includes minimum revenue guarantees for a five to seven year period. Partially offsetting the decrease in equity earnings from our Jackalope equity investment was an increase in equity earnings from our Crestwood Permian equity investment of approximately $2.8 million and $2.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 primarily due to the

contribution of Crestwood New Mexico to Crestwood Permian in June 2017, and the Nautilus system coming online in June 2017.


Storage and Transportation


EBITDA for CMLP'sour storage and transportation segment decreased by approximately $11.1$37.7 million and $30.5$146.4 million for during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same periods in 2016. The comparability of our storage2020. Our EBITDA for the three and transportation segment's resultssix months ended June 30, 2021 was impacted by a $32.9 million loss recognized onreduction to the deconsolidation ofequity earnings from our Northeast storage and transportation assetsStagecoach Gas equity method investment as a result of recording our proportionate share of a loss on long-lived assets (including goodwill) recorded by the contribution of these assets to Stagecoach Gas in June 2016. The deconsolidation ofequity method investee as further discussed below.

During the Northeast storage and transportation assets resulted in lower revenues and costs of product/services sold of approximately $74.1 million and $4.6 million, respectively, during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021, COLT’s rail loading volumes decreased by 4% compared to the same period in 2016. We also experienced2020 due to lower demand for rail loading services which resulted in a decrease in revenues and operations and maintenance expenses of approximately $11.6$2.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Our storage and transportation segment’s revenues and operations and maintenance expenses were relatively flat during the ninethree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same period in 2016, primarily as a result2020, and our costs of the deconsolidation of the Northeast storage and transportation assets.

Our storage and transportation segment's revenues was also impacted by lower revenues of approximately $11.6 million and $31.0 million from our COLT Hub operationsproduct/services sold were relatively flat during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same periods in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in our rail throughput revenues resulting from lower rail loading volumes as a result of two rail loading contracts that expired in late 2016 and the in-service of the Dakota Access Pipeline system.2020.


The comparability of ourOur storage and transportation segment'ssegment’s EBITDA was also impacted by a $13.7net decrease in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a $35.5 million goodwill impairment and $155.4 million reduction to the equity earnings from our Stagecoach Gas equity method investment as a result of recording our proportionate share of a loss on long-lived assets (including goodwill) recorded by our Stagecoach Gas equity investment related to the anticipated sale of Stagecoach Gas to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan. In addition, our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during the first quartersix months ended June 30, 2021 were also reduced by our proportionate share of 2016transaction costs of approximately $3.0 million related to our COLT Hub operations.the anticipated sale of the Stagecoach Gas equity investment. For a further discussion of our goodwill impairments recorded during 2016,these matters, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2.

Our storage and transportation segment's EBITDA was impacted by an increase in5. Aside from recording our proportionate share of this loss on long-lived assets, our earnings from our unconsolidated affiliates. As discussed above, in June 2016, we deconsolidated our Northeast storage and transportation assets as a result of the Stagecoach Gas transaction and began accounting for our 50% equity interest in Stagecoach Gas underinvestment were relatively flat. During the equity method of accounting. We recognized equity earnings from Stagecoach Gas of approximately $19.0 million during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017. Earnings2021, earnings from our Tres Holdings equity investment increased by approximately $2.2$9.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016,2020, primarily due to property tax accruals recorded by Tres Holdings during 2016.

EBITDAhigher revenues from gas inventory sales and an increase in demand for CEQP'sits storage and transportation segment decreased by approximately $11.6 million and $27.3 millionservices due to the unusually cold weather experienced during early 2021 compared to 2020. During the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021, earnings from our PRBIC equity investment increased by $4.5 million compared to the same periodsperiod in 2016. The change in CEQP's storage and transportation segment's EBITDA period over period was due to all2020. During the factors as discussed above for CMLP. In addition, in June 2016, the Matagorda County court issued a final judgment related to Tres Palacios' 2012 and 2013 property tax years which resulted in CEQP recording additional net property taxes (including interest and penalties) of approximately $2.9 million during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2020, we recorded a $4.5 million reduction in earnings from PRBIC to reflect our proportionate share of a long-lived assets impairment recorded by our PRBIC equity investment.


Marketing, Supply and Logistics


EBITDA for our marketing, supply and logistics segment decreased by approximately $23.5$22.4 million forduring the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same period in 2016,2020, while we experienced an increase inour EBITDA of approximately $81.8 million duringfor the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 increased by approximately $6.8 million compared to the same period in 2016. The comparability of our2020. Our marketing supply and logistics segment's results was impactedsegment’s revenues increased by goodwill impairments of approximately $87.4$448.6 million recorded during 2016. For a further discussion of our goodwill impairments recordedand $750.3 million during the first quarterthree and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, while our costs of 2016, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2.product/services sold increased by approximately $472.7 million and $743.7 million during those same periods.


Our supplyNGL marketing and logistics operations experienced an increase in revenues of approximately $105.3$214.2 million and $302.8$477.1 million during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same periods in 2016,2020, and an increase in its costs of product/services sold of approximately $117.8$235.7 million and $297.3$474.8 million during those same periods. During 2016, we experienced unseasonably warm weather which resulted in lower demand for NGLs compared to 2017. The costs of product/services sold increases include a loss of $24.1 million and $22.6 million on our commodity-based derivative contracts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and a $2.1 million and $4.1 million gain on commodity-based derivative contracts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The loss on our commodity-based derivative contracts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 resulted from higher average NGL prices during the third quarter of 2017 compared to the prior periods, which resulted in an increase in our liabilities from price risk management activities associated with contracts that provide fixed prices on future sales of our NGL inventory.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, our storage and terminals operations (including our West Coast operations) experienced a $39.0 million and $104.1 million increase in revenues compared to the same periods in 2016 and a $45.1 million and $109.4 million increase in costs of product/services sold during those same periods. These increases were primarily driven bydue to increases in NGL prices during the three months ended September 30, 2017,2021 compared to 2020 as a result of overall increases in commodity prices and the increaseunusually cold weather experienced during early 2021 compared to 2020. Our NGL marketing and logistics operations’ costs of product/services sold increased more than its revenues primarily due to the impact of increasing commodity prices on our assets and liabilities from price risk management activities. Included in our costs of product/services sold more than offset the increase in our revenues due to decreasing demand from our refinery customers primarily on the West Coast.

Revenues from our crude marketing operations increased by approximately $76.5was a loss of $33.3 million and $172.4$41.4 million during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021, and a loss of $6.8 million and a gain of $15.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 related to our price risk management activities. Partially offsetting the impact of our price risk management activities was the impact of the operating results of the NGL assets acquired from Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (Plains) in April 2020, which increased our ability to capture additional opportunities in the markets in which these assets operate.

Our crude and natural gas marketing operations experienced an increase in its revenues of approximately $234.4 million and $273.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2016. In addition,2020, and an increase in its product costs of approximately $237.0 million and $268.9 million during those same periods. These increases were driven primarily driven by an increase in marketing activity surrounding our crude-related operations primarily in the Bakken as a result of higher commodity prices and an increase in marketing activity surrounding our natural-gas related operations driven by unusual winter weather conditions experience during early 2021.

Our marketing, supply and logistics operations and maintenance expenses decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, while we experienced an increase in these expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. In late 2020, we sold certain of our costs of product/services sold of approximately $76.0 millionBakken crude-related transportation assets which decreased our operations and $172.0 million. These increases were driven by higher crude marketing volumes due to increased marketing activity surrounding our crude-related operations.

Our NGL and crude trucking operations continued to experience a decline in demand for their services due to lower supply volumes, increased competition, excess trucking capacity in the marketplace and lower commodity pricesmaintenance expenses during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same periods in 2016, resulting2020. Offsetting the decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period 2020, was higher operations and maintenance expenses as a result of the acquisition of the NGL assets from Plains in a $2.8 million2020.

During the three and a $1.1six months ended June 30, 2021, Crestwood Midstream’s general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $8.7 million and $5.0 million decrease in costs of product/services sold period over period.

Our marketing, supply and logistics segment's operations and maintenance expenses increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same periods in 20162020, primarily due to a $3.1 million property tax refund received duringlower average awards outstanding under our long-term incentive plans and lower employee-related expenses due to our cost cutting efforts we undertook starting in the thirdsecond quarter of 2016 related to our West Coast operations.

Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion Expense.Depreciation, During the three months ended June 30, 2021, our depreciation, amortization and accretion expense decreased during the nine months September 30, 2017by approximately $2 million compared to the same period in 2016,2020, primarily due to the deconsolidationsale of our Fayetteville assets in late 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, our depreciation, amortization and accretion expense increased by approximately $1 million primarily due to the acquisition of the Northeast storageNGL assets from Plains in April 2020 and transportation assetsplacing in-service the expansion of our processing capacity at our Bucking Horse processing facility on our Powder River Basin system in June 2016 and Crestwood New Mexico operations in June 2017.early 2020.

recognized a gain of $10 million on the early tender of principal amounts under Crestwood Midstream's 2020 Senior Notes and 2022 Senior Notes. For a further discussion of these repayments, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 7.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital


Crestwood Equity is a holding company that derives all of its operating cash flow from its operating subsidiaries.  Our principal sources of liquidity include cash generated by operating activities from our subsidiaries, distributions from our joint ventures, borrowings under the CMLPCrestwood Midstream credit facility, and sales of equity and debt securities. Our operating subsidiariesequity investments use cash from their respective operations and contributions from us to fund their operating activities, maintenance and growth capital expenditures, and service their outstanding indebtedness. We believe our liquidity sources and operating cash flows are sufficient to address our future operating, debt service and capital requirements.

We make quarterly cash distributions to our common unitholders within approximately 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter in an aggregate amount equal to our available cash for such quarter. On July 15, 2021, we declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.625 per unit to our common unitholders, which will be paid on August 13, 2021 and was consistent with the distribution paid in May 2021. Based on our financial performance during the six months ended June 30, 2021, and our estimates of our financial performance for future quarters, we believe the current level of distributions is appropriate. As described above, the Crestwood Holdings Transactions resulted in Crestwood Equity acquiring and cancelling approximately 11.5 million common units, which decreased our anticipated annual distributions (at the current annual rate of $2.50 per unit) by approximately $29 million per year and eliminates any future consideration by our board of directors regarding the level of distributions to our unitholders of any risks created by Crestwood Holdings’ debt (which was fully repaid as of June 30, 2021). We also pay quarterly cash distributions of approximately $15 million to our preferred unitholders. In November 2017, we will pay the distribution related to the quarter ended September 30, 2017 to our preferred unitholders in cash in lieu of issuing additional preferred units, and beginning with the first quarter ending December 31, 2017,of 2021, we will be requiredpay quarterly cash distributions of approximately $10 million to make all future quarterly distributions to our preferred unitholders in cash.Crestwood Niobrara’s non-controlling partner. We believe our operating cash flows will well exceed our quarterly distributions at the current level and cash distributions to our partners, preferred unitholders.unitholders and non-controlling partner, and as a result, we will have adequate operating cash flows as a source of liquidity for our growth capital expenditures.


As describedIn March 2021, Crestwood Equity’s board of directors authorized a $175 million common unit and preferred unit repurchase program effective through December 31, 2022. Pursuant to the program, we may purchase common and preferred units from time to time in Segment Highlights - Marketing, Supplythe open market in accordance with applicable securities laws at current market prices. The timing and Logistics above, we have entered into an agreement to sell our US Salt operations for approximately $225 million. We intend to use the proceeds from the divestiture to reduce borrowingsamount of purchases under the CMLP credit facilityprogram will be determined based on growth capital opportunities, financial performance and reinvest in on-going organic growth projects in the Bakkenoutlook, and Delaware Basin discussed above in our Gatheringother factors, including acquisition opportunities and Processing Segment Highlights,market conditions. The unit repurchase program does not obligate us to purchase any specific dollar amount or number of units and we expect the proceeds from this divestiture will eliminate the need to access the equity capital markets to fund our current 2017 and 2018 capital programs.may be suspended or discontinued at any time.


As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream2021, we had $548.7$366.7 million of available capacity under itsthe Crestwood Midstream credit facility considering the most restrictive debt covenants in itsthe credit agreement. At SeptemberAs of June 30, 2017, Crestwood Midstream was2021, we were in compliance with all of itsour debt covenants applicable to itsthe credit facility and senior notes.

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we redeemed and cancelled approximately $687.2 million of principal outstanding under the 2023 Senior Notes, utilizing a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes and borrowings under our Crestwood Midstream credit facility. In July 2021, Stagecoach Gas closed on the sale of certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan and distributed to us approximately $614 million as our proportionate share of the gross proceeds received from the sale. We utilized approximately $3 million of these proceeds to pay transaction costs related to the sale described above, $40 million of these proceeds to pay our contingent consideration obligation and related accrued interest, and to repay a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility.

Operating Activities


Our operating cash flows decreasedincreased by approximately $16.3$110.1 million during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 compared to the same period in 2016,2020. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in net cash inflow from working capital of approximately $78.3 million, driven mostly by the sale of higher levels of NGL inventory at the close of the winter season during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to increased activity primarily from the NGL assets acquired from Plains during the second quarter of 2020. Also contributing to the increase in our operating cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was an increase in our operating revenues of approximately $881.7 million, partially offset by higher costs of product/services sold of approximately $964.8$850.9 million primarily from our gathering and processing and marketing, supply and logistics segments' operationssegment and gathering and processing segment as discussed above, partially offset by a $908.5 million increase in operating revenues from these segments' operations. In addition, we experienced lower operations and maintenance expensesResults of approximately $16.5 million primarily due to the deconsolidation of our Northeast storage and transportation assets in June 2016. The decrease in our net operating cash flows described above was partially offset by a $18.4 million net cash inflow from working capital primarily resulting from lesser working capital requirements from our NGL and crude trucking operations.Operations above.

Investing Activities


Capital Expenditures. The energy midstream business is capital intensive, requiring significant investments for the acquisition or development of new facilities. We categorize our capital expenditures as either:


growth capital expenditures, which are made to construct additional assets, expand and upgrade existing systems, or acquire additional assets; or


maintenance capital expenditures, which are made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets, extend their useful lives or comply with regulatory requirements.


We anticipate that ourOur growth capital expenditures forduring the remainder of 2017year will increase the services we can provide to our customers and the operating efficiencies of our systems and generate meaningful contributions to our results of operations beginning in 2018.systems. We expect to finance our growth and maintenance capital expenditures with a combination of cash generated by our operating subsidiaries, distributions received from our joint venturesequity investments and borrowings under the CMLPour credit facility.

We have identified additional growth capital project opportunities for each of our reporting segments. Additional commitments or expenditures will be made at our discretion, and any discontinuation of thethese construction of these projects will likelycould result in less future operating cash flows and earnings.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures


As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2021, Crestwood Equity and Crestwood Midstream carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of their respective management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, as to the effectiveness, design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Crestwood Equity and Crestwood Midstream maintain controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in their respective reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC, and that information is accumulated and communicated to their respective management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Such management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, do not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures or the internal controls will prevent and/or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

Our business faces many risks. Any of the risks discussed below or elsewhere in this Form 10-Q or our other SEC filings could have a material impact on our business, financial position or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our business operations. For a detailed discussion of the risk factors that should be understood by any investor contemplating investment in our common units, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 20162020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.10-K, as supplemented by the risk factors set forth below. There has been no material change in the risk factors set forth in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K other than those set forth below.


Terrorist attacks or “cyber security” events, or the threat of them, may adversely affect our business.

The U.S. government has issued public warnings that indicate that pipelines and other assets might be specific targets for terrorist organizations or “cyber security” events.  These potential targets might include our pipeline systems or operating systems and may affect our ability to operate or control our pipeline assets or utilize our customer service systems. Also, destructive forms of protests and opposition by extremists and other disruptions, including acts of sabotage or eco-terrorism, against oil and natural gas development and production or midstream processing or transportation activities could potentially result in damage or injury to persons, property or the environment or lead to extended interruptions of our or our customers’ operations. Additionally, the oil and natural gas industry has become increasingly dependent on digital technologies to conduct certain processing and operational activities. At the same time, companies in our industry have been the targets of cyber-attacks and ransomware demands, and it is possible that the attacks in our industry will continue and grow in number. In addition, to assist in conducting our business, we rely on information technology systems and data hosting facilities, including systems and facilities that are hosted by third parties and with respect to which we have limited visibility and control. These systems and facilities may be vulnerable to a variety of evolving cyber security risks or information security breaches, including unauthorized access, denial-of-service attacks, malicious software, data privacy breaches by employees, insiders or others with authorized access, cyber or phishing-attacks, ransomware, malware, social engineering, physical breaches or other actions. These cyber security risks could result in the unauthorized release, gathering, monitoring, misuse, loss or destruction of proprietary, personal data and other information, or other disruption of our business operations. In addition, certain cyber incidents, such as advanced persistent threats, may remain undetected for an extended period. The occurrence of any of these events, including any attack or threat targeted at our pipelines and other assets, could cause a substantial decrease in revenues, increased costs or other financial losses, exposure or loss of customer information, damage to our reputation or business relationships, increased regulation or litigation, disruption of our operations and/or inaccurate information reported from our operations.  These developments may subject our operations to increased risks, as well as increased costs, and, depending on their ultimate magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Although we have adopted controls and systems, including updating our systems with recent patches and updates from our software providers and procuring limited insurance for certain cyber-related losses, that are designed to protect information and mitigate the risk of data loss and other cyber security events, such measures cannot entirely eliminate cyber security threats, particularly as these threats continue to evolve and grow. Furthermore the controls and systems we have installed may be breached or be inadequate to address a risk that arises. We are not aware of any cyber security events that impacted our company that have or could have resulted in a material loss; however there is no assurance that such a breach has not already occurred and we are unaware of it, and that we will not suffer such a loss in the future.

We are or may become subject to cyber security and data privacy laws, regulations, litigation and directives relating to our processing of personal data.

Several jurisdictions in which we operate throughout the United States may have laws governing how we must respond to a cyber incident that results in the unauthorized access, disclosure or loss of personal data. Additionally, new laws and regulations governing cybersecurity, data privacy and unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, including international comprehensive data privacy regulations and recent U.S. state legislation in California, Virginia and Colorado (some of which, among other things, provides for a private right of action), pose increasingly complex compliance challenges
49

and could potentially elevate our costs over time. Our business involves collection, uses and other processing of personal data of our employees, contractors, suppliers and service providers. As legislation continues to develop and cyber incidents continue to evolve, we will likely be required to expend significant resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures to comply with such legislation and to detect, investigate and remediate vulnerabilities to cyber incidents and report any cyber incidents to the applicable regulatory authorities. In particular, in response to recent ransomware attacks, the Department of Homeland Security has issued a security directive to certain pipeline companies requiring the companies to appoint personnel, perform cybersecurity assessments, and report incidents and other information. Any failure by us, or a company we acquire, to comply with such laws and regulations could result in reputational harm, loss of goodwill, penalties, liabilities, and/or mandated changes in our business practices.
