Basis of Presentation

General

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These rules and regulations conform to the accounting principles contained in the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), the single source of GAAP. In compliance with such rules and regulations, all significant intercompany items have been eliminated in consolidation.

In our opinion, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position and operating results for the interim periods have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year; accordingly, you should read these consolidated financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 20202021 Form 10-K.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries over which we have control or are the primary beneficiary. We evaluate our financial interests in business enterprises to determine if they represent variable interest entities where we are the primary beneficiary.  If such criteria are met, we consolidate the financial statements of such businesses with those of our own.

Earnings per Share

We calculate earnings per share using the two-class method. Earnings were allocated to Class P sharescommon stock and participating securities based on the amount of dividends paid in the current period plus an allocation of the undistributed earnings or excess distributions over earnings to the extent that each security participates in earnings or excess distributions over earnings. Our unvested restricted stock awards, which may be restricted stock or restricted stock units issued to employees and non-employee directors and which include dividend equivalent payments, do not participate in excess distributions over earnings.

Ruby Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing

The balance of Ruby Pipeline, L.L.C.'s 2022 unsecured notes matured on April 1, 2022 in the principal amount of $475 million. Although Ruby has sufficient liquidity to operate its business, it lacked sufficient liquidity to satisfy its obligations under the 2022 unsecured notes on the maturity date of April 1, 2022. Accordingly, on March 31, 2022, Ruby filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. Ruby, as the debtor, will continue to operate in the ordinary course as a debtor in possession under the jurisdiction of the United States Bankruptcy Court. We fully impaired our equity investment in Ruby in the fourth quarter of 2019 and fully impaired our investment in Ruby’s subordinated notes in the first quarter of 2021. We had 0 amounts included in our “Investments” in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets associated with Ruby as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

Sale of an Interest in NGPL Holdings

On March 8, 2021, we and Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (Brookfield) completed the sale of a combined 25% interest in our joint venture, NGPL Holdings LLC (NGPL Holdings), to a fund controlled by ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC (ArcLight). We received net proceeds of $413 million for our proportionate share of the interests sold which included the transfer of $125 million of our $500 million related party promissory note receivable from NGPL Holdings to ArcLight with quarterly interest payments at 6.75%.sold. We recognized a pre-tax gain of $206 million for our proportionate share, which is included within “Other, net” in our accompanying consolidated statement of operationsincome for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Upon closing, weWe and Brookfield now each hold a 37.5% interest in NGPL Holdings.

Impairments

During the first quarter of 2020, the energy production and demand factors related to COVID-19 and the sharp decline in commodity prices represented a triggering event that required us to perform impairment testing on certain businesses that are sensitive to commodity prices. As a result, we performed an impairment analysis of long-lived assets within our CO2 business segment and conducted interim tests of the recoverability of goodwill for our CO2 and Natural Gas Pipelines Non-Regulated reporting units as of March 31, 2020, which resulted in impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill within our CO2 business segment shown in the above table during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Other Write-downs

During the first quarter of 2021, we recognized a pre-tax charge of $117 million related to a write-down of our subordinated note receivable from our equity investee, Ruby, driven by the recent impairment by Ruby of its assets, which is included within “Earnings from equity investments” in our accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The impairment at Ruby was the result of upcoming contract expirations and additional uncertainty identified in late February 2021 regarding the proposed development of a third party liquefied natural gas exporting facility that could significantly increase the demand for its services.

Adoption of Accounting Pronouncement

On January 1, 2022, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2020-06, “Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” This ASU (i) simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating two of the three models in ASC 470-20 that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features, (ii) amends diluted EPS calculations for convertible instruments by requiring the use of the if-converted method and (iii) simplifies the settlement assessment entities are required to perform on contracts that can potentially settle in an entity’s own equity by removing certain requirements. Using the modified retrospective method, the adoption of this ASU resulted in a pre-tax adjustment of $14 million to unwind the remaining unamortized debt discount within “Debt fair value adjustments” on our consolidated balance sheet and an adjustment of $11 million to unwind the balance of the conversion feature classified in “Additional paid in capital” on our consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

5.  Risk Management

Certain of our business activities expose us to risks associated with unfavorable changes in the market price of natural gas, NGL and crude oil. We also have exposure to interest rate and foreign currency risk as a result of the issuance of our debt obligations. Pursuant to our management’s approved risk management policy, we use derivative contracts to hedge or reduce our exposure to some of these risks.

Credit Risks

In conjunction with certain derivative contracts, we are required to provide collateral to our counterparties, which may include posting letters of credit or placing cash in margin accounts. As of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we had 0no outstanding letters of credit supporting our commodity price risk management program. As of March 31, 2021,2022, we had cash margins of $30$254 million posted by us with our counterparties as collateral and reported within “Restricted deposits” on our accompanying consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2020,2021, we had cash margins of $3$14 million posted by our counterparties with us as collateral and reported within “Other current liabilities” on our accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The balance at March 31, 20212022 represents the net of our initial margin requirements of $24$58 million and counterparty variation margin requirements of $6 million.$196 million posted by us with our counterparties. We also use industry standard commercial agreements that allow for the netting of exposures associated with transactions executed under a single commercial agreement. Additionally, we generally utilize master netting agreements to offset credit exposure across multiple commercial agreements with a single counterparty.

We also have agreements with certain counterparties to our derivative contracts that contain provisions requiring the posting of additional collateral upon a decrease in our credit rating. As of March 31, 2021,2022, based on our current mark-to-market positions and posted collateral, we estimate that if our credit rating were downgraded one notch, we would not be required to post additional collateral. If we were downgraded two notches, we estimate that we would be required to post $67$377 million of additional collateral.

(c)Amounts recognized as revenue under guidance prescribed in Topics of the ASC other than in Topic 606 were primarily from leases and derivative contracts. See Note 5 for additional information related to our derivative contracts.
(d)Our revenues from leasing services are predominantly comprised of specific assets that we lease to customers under operating leases where one customer obtains substantially all of the economic benefit from the asset and has the right to direct the use of that asset. These leases primarily consist of specific tanks, treating facilities, marine vessels and gas equipment and pipelines with separate control locations. We do not lease assets that qualify as sales-type or finance leases.

Contract Balances

As of both March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, our contract asset balances were $31 million and $20 million, respectively.$39 million. Of the contract asset balance at December 31, 2020, $92021, $16 million was transferred to accounts receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2021.2022. As of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, our contract liability balances were $243$222 million and $239$212 million, respectively. Of the contract liability balance at December 31, 2020, $242021, $35 million was recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2021.2022.

Revenue Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

The following table presents our estimated revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations for contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, representing our “contractually committed” revenue as of March 31, 20212022 that we will invoice or transfer from contract liabilities and recognize in future periods:

Our contractually committed revenue, for purposes of the tabular presentation above, is generally limited to service or commodity sale customer contracts which have fixed pricing and fixed volume terms and conditions, generally including contracts with take-or-pay or minimum volume commitment payment obligations. Our contractually committed revenue amounts generally exclude, based on the following practical expedient that we elected to apply, remaining performance obligations for contracts with index-based pricing or variable volume attributes in which such variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation.

Income tax expenseIncome tax expense$351 $60 Income tax expense$194 $351 
Effective tax rateEffective tax rate19.8 %(26.0)%Effective tax rate22.1 %19.8 %

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is higher than the statutory federal rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes, partially offset by dividend-received deductions from our investments in Florida Gas Pipeline (Citrus), NGPL Holdings, and Products (SE) Pipe Line Company (PPL).

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is lower than the statutory federal rate of 21% primarily due to the release of the valuation allowance on our investment in NGPL Holdings upon the sale of a partial interest in NGPL Holdings, and dividend-received deductions from our investments in Citrus, Corporation (Citrus), NGPL Holdings and Products (SE) Pipe Line Corporation (PPL),PPL, partially offset by state income taxes.

24
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is “negative” and lower than the statutory federal rate of 21% primarily due to a $600 million impairment of goodwill, which is a reduction to income but is not deductible for tax purposes. This was partially offset by the refund of alternative minimum tax sequestration credits and dividend-received deductions from our investment in Citrus and PPL. While we would normally expect a federal income tax benefit from our loss
22


before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2020, because a tax benefit is not allowed on the goodwill impairment, we incurred an income tax expense for the period.

9.   Litigation and Environmental

We and our subsidiaries are parties to various legal, regulatory and other matters arising from the day-to-day operations of our businesses or certain predecessor operations that may result in claims against the Company. Although no assurance can be given, we believe, based on our experiences to date and taking into account established reserves and insurance, that the ultimate resolution of such items will not have a material adverse impact to our business. We believe we have meritorious defenses to the matters to which we are a party and intend to vigorously defend the Company. When we determine a loss is probable of occurring and is reasonably estimable, we accrue an undiscounted liability for such contingencies based on our best estimate using information available at that time. If the estimated loss is a range of potential outcomes and there is no better estimate within the range, we accrue the amount at the low end of the range. We disclose the following contingencies where an adverse outcome may be material or, in the judgment of management, we conclude the matter should otherwise be disclosed.

SFPP FERC Proceedings

The FERC approved the SFPP EastNorth, Oregon, and West Line Settlement in Docket No. IS21-138 (“EL Settlement”)IS22-100 (NOW Settlement) on December 31, 2020January 14, 2022 and it becamethe settlement is final and effective on February 2, 2021. The EL Settlement resolved certain dockets in their entirety (IS09-437 and OR16-6) and resolved the SFPP East Line related disputes in other dockets which remain ongoing (OR14-35/36 and OR19-21/33/37).effective. The amounts SFPP agreed to pay pursuant to the ELNOW Settlement were fully accrued on or before December 31, 2020.2021. Together with the East Line Settlement (which the FERC approved previously on December 31, 2020 in Docket No. IS21-138), the NOW Settlement resolves all remaining disputes before the FERC relating to SFPP (including Docket Nos. OR11-13, OR11-16, OR11-18, OR14-35, OR14-36, OR19-21, OR19-33, and OR19-37) and establishes a moratorium with settling shippers that prohibits the filing of a protest or complaint against SFPP’s FERC rates until February 1, 2025.

The tariffsEPNG FERC Proceeding

On April 21, 2022, EPNG was notified by the FERC of the commencement of a rate proceeding against it pursuant to section 5 of the Natural Gas Act. This proceeding sets the matter for hearing to determine whether EPNG’s current rates remain just and reasonable. A proceeding under section 5 of the Natural Gas Act is prospective in nature such that a change in rates charged by SFPP which were not fully resolved by the EL Settlement are subject to a number of ongoing shipper-initiated proceedings at the FERC. In general, these complaints and protests allege the rates and tariffs charged by SFPP are not just and reasonable under the Interstate Commerce Act (ICA). In some of these proceedings shippers have challenged the overall rate being charged by SFPP, and in others the shippers have challenged SFPP’s index-based rate increases. The issues involved in these proceedings include, among others, whether indexed rate increases are justified, and the appropriate level of return and income tax allowance SFPP may include in its rates. If the shippers prevail on their arguments or claims, theycustomers, if any, would be entitled to seek reparations for the two-year period preceding the filing date of their complaints and/or prospective refunds in protest cases from the date of protest, and SFPP may be required to reduce its rates going forward. With respect to the ongoing shipper-initiated proceedings atlikely only occur after the FERC that were not fully resolved by the EL Settlement, the shippers pleaded claims to at least $50 millionhas issued a final order. Unless a settlement is reached sooner, an initial Administrative Law Judge decision is anticipated in rate refunds and unspecified rate reductions as of the date of their complaintslate May 2023, with a final FERC decision anticipated in 2014 and 2018. The claims pleaded by the shippers are expected to change due to the passage of time and interest. These proceedings tend to be protracted, with decisions of the FERC often appealed to the federal courts. Management believes SFPP has meritorious arguments supporting SFPP’s rates and intends to vigorously defend SFPP against these complaints and protests.late 2023. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of the shipper complaints and protests seeking rate reductions or refunds in the ongoing proceedingsthis proceeding will have a material adverse impact onto our business.

Gulf LNG Facility Disputes

On March 1, 2016, Gulf LNG Energy, LLC and Gulf LNG Pipeline, LLC (GLNG) received a Notice of Arbitration from Eni USA Gas Marketing LLC (Eni USA), one of two companies that entered into a terminal use agreement for capacity of the Gulf LNG Facility in Mississippi for an initial term that was not scheduled to expire until the year 2031. Eni USA is an indirect subsidiary of Eni S.p.A., a multi-national integrated energy company headquartered in Milan, Italy.  Pursuant to its Notice of Arbitration, Eni USA sought declaratory and monetary relief based upon its assertion that (i) the terminal use agreement should be terminated because changes in the U.S. natural gas market since the execution of the agreement in December 2007 have “frustrated the essential purpose” of the agreement and (ii) activities allegedly undertaken by affiliates of Gulf LNG Holdings Group LLC “in connection with a plan to convert the LNG Facility into a liquefaction/export facility have given rise to a contractual right on the part of Eni USA to terminate” the agreement.  On June 29, 2018, the arbitration paneltribunal delivered itsan Award and the panel's rulingthat called for the termination of the agreement and Eni USA’s payment of compensation to GLNG. The Award resulted in our recording a net loss in the second quarter of 2018 of our equity investment in GLNG due to a non-cash impairment of our investment in GLNG partially offset by our share of earnings recognized by GLNG. On February 1, 2019, the Delaware Court of Chancery issued a Final Order and Judgment confirming the Award, which was paid by Eni USA on February 20, 2019.

On September 28, 2018, GLNG filed a lawsuit against Eni S.p.A. in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in New York County to enforce a Guarantee Agreement entered into by Eni S.p.A. in connection with the terminal use agreement. On December 12, 2018,In response to the foregoing lawsuit, Eni S.p.A. filed counterclaims under the terminal use agreement and claims under a counterclaim seekingparent direct agreement with Gulf LNG Energy (Port), LLC. The foregoing claims asserted by Eni S.p.A seek unspecified damages from GLNG. This lawsuit remains pending.and involve the same allegations as the claims which were resolved conclusively in the arbitrations with Eni USA described above and with GLNG’s remaining customer as described below. On January 4, 2022, the trial court entered a decision granting Eni S.p.A’s motion for summary judgment on the claims asserted by GLNG to enforce the Guarantee Agreement. GLNG filed an interlocutory appeal of the decision. Pending resolution of GLNG’s appeal, the foregoing counterclaims and other claims asserted by Eni S.p.A under the terminal use agreement and parent direct agreement remain pending in the trial court.

On June 3, 2019, Eni USA filed a second Notice of Arbitration against GLNG asserting the same breach of contract claims that had been asserted in the first arbitration and alleging that GLNG negligently misrepresented certain facts or contentions in the first arbitration. By its second Notice of Arbitration, Eni USA sought to recover as damages some or all of the payments made by Eni USA to satisfy the Final Order and Judgment of the Court of Chancery. In response to the second Notice of Arbitration, GLNG filed a complaint with the Court of Chancery together with a motion seeking to permanently enjoin the arbitration. On cross-appeals from an Order and Final Judgment of the Court of Chancery, the Delaware Supreme Court ruled in favor of GLNG on November 17, 2020 and a permanent injunction was entered prohibiting Eni USA from re-arbitrating both the breach of contract and negligent misrepresentation claims. On April 15, 2021, Eni USA filed a petition for writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court seeking review of the Delaware Supreme Court’s decision. This petition remains pending.

On December 20, 2019, GLNG’s remaining customer, Angola LNG Supply Services LLC (ALSS), a consortium of international oil companies including Eni S.p.A., filed a Notice of Arbitration seeking a declaration that its terminal use agreement should be deemed terminated as of March 1, 2016 on substantially the same terms and conditions as set forth in the arbitration award pertaining to Eni USA. ALSS also seekssought a declaration on substantially the same allegations asserted previously by Eni USA in arbitration that activities allegedly undertaken by affiliates of Gulf LNG Holdings Group LLC in connection with the pursuit of an LNG liquefaction export project have givengave rise to a contractual right on the part of ALSS to terminate the agreement. ALSS also seeks a monetary award directing GLNGOn July 15, 2021, the arbitration tribunal delivered an Award on the merits of all claims submitted to reimburse ALSS for all reservation chargesthe tribunal and operating fees paid by ALSS after December 31, 2016 plus interest. A final decision in this arbitration is expected before the end of the third quarter of 2021.

Continental Resources, Inc. v. Hiland Partners Holdings, LLC

On December 8, 2017, Continental Resources, Inc. (CLR) filed an action in Garfield County, Oklahoma state court alleging that Hiland Partners Holdings, LLC (Hiland Partners) breached a Gas Purchase Agreement, dated November 12, 2010, as amended (GPA), by failing to receive and purchase all of CLR’s dedicated gas under the GPA (produced in three North Dakota counties).  CLR also alleged fraud, maintaining that Hiland Partners promised the construction of several additional facilities to process the gas without an intention to build the facilities. Hiland Partners denied these allegations, but the parties entered into a settlement agreement in June 2018, under which CLR agreed to release all of its claims in exchange for Hiland Partners’ construction of 10 infrastructure projects by November 1, 2020. CLR has filed an amended petition in which it asserts that Hiland Partners’ failure to construct certain facilities by specific dates nullifies the release contained in the settlement agreement. CLR’s amended petition makes additional claims under both the GPA and a May 8, 2008 gas purchase contract covering additional North Dakota counties, including CLR’s contention that Hiland Partners is not allowed to deduct third-party processing fees from the gas purchase price. CLR seeks damages in excess of $225$276 million. Hiland Partners deniesWe deny and willare vigorously defenddefending against these claims.

Freeport LNG Winter Storm Litigation

On September 13, 2021, Freeport LNG Marketing, LLC (Freeport) filed suit against Kinder Morgan Texas Pipeline LLC and Kinder Morgan Tejas Pipeline LLC in the 133rd District Court of Harris County, Texas (Case No. 2021-58787) alleging that defendants breached the parties’ base contract for sale and purchase of natural gas by failing to repurchase natural gas nominated by Freeport between February 10-22, 2021 during Winter Storm Uri. We deny that we were obligated to repurchase natural gas from Freeport given our declaration of force majeure during the storm and our compliance with emergency orders issued by the Railroad Commission of Texas providing heightened priority for the delivery of gas to human needs customers. Freeport alleges that it is owed approximately $104 million, plus attorney fees and interest. We believe that our declaration of force majeure is valid and appropriate and are vigorously defending against these claims.

Pipeline Integrity and Releases

From time to time, despite our best efforts, our pipelines experience leaks and ruptures. These leaks and ruptures may cause explosions, fire, and damage to the environment, damage to property and/or personal injury or death. In connection with these incidents, we may be sued for damages caused by an alleged failure to properly mark the locations of our pipelines and/or to properly maintain our pipelines. Depending upon the facts and circumstances of a particular incident, state and federal regulatory authorities may seek civil and/or criminal fines and penalties.

General

As of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, our total reserve for legal matters was $130$164 million and $273$231 million, respectively.

Environmental Matters

We and our subsidiaries are subject to environmental cleanup and enforcement actions from time to time. In particular, CERCLA generally imposes joint and several liability for cleanup and enforcement costs on current and predecessor owners and operators of a site, among others, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, subject to the right of a liable party to establish a “reasonable basis” for apportionment of costs. Our operations are also subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment. Although we believe our operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, risks of additional costs and liabilities are inherent in pipeline, terminal and CO2 field and oil field operations, and there can be no assurance that we will not incur significant costs and
24


liabilities. Moreover, it is possible that other developments could result in substantial costs and liabilities to us, such as
26


increasingly stringent environmental laws, regulations and enforcement policies under the terms of authority of those laws, and claims for damages to property or persons resulting from our operations.

We are currently involved in several governmental proceedings involving alleged violations of local, state and federal environmental and safety regulations. As we receive notices of non-compliance, we attempt to negotiate and settle such matters where appropriate. These alleged violations may result in fines and penalties, but we do not believe any such fines and penalties will be material to our business, individually or in the aggregate. We are also currently involved in several governmental proceedings involving groundwater and soil remediation efforts under state or federal administrative orders or related remediation programs. We have established a reserve to address the costs associated with the remediation efforts.

In addition, we are involved with and have been identified as a potentially responsible party (PRP) in several federal and state Superfund sites. Environmental reserves have been established for those sites where our contribution is probable and reasonably estimable. In addition, we are from time to time involved in civil proceedings relating to damages alleged to have occurred as a result of accidental leaks or spills of refined petroleum products, crude oil, NGL, natural gas or CO2.

Portland Harbor Superfund Site, Willamette River, Portland, Oregon

On January 6, 2017, the EPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD) that established a final remedy and cleanup plan for an industrialized area on the lower reach of the Willamette River commonly referred to as the Portland Harbor Superfund Site (PHSS). The cost for the final remedy is estimated by the EPA to be more than $3$2.8 billion and active cleanup is expected to take more than 10 years to complete. KMLT, KMBT, and some 90 other PRPs identified by the EPA are involved in a non-judicial allocation process to determine each party’s respective share of the cleanup costs related to the final remedy set forth by the ROD. We are participating in the allocation process on behalf of KMLT (in connection with its ownership or operation of 2 facilities) and KMBT (in connection with its ownership or operation of 2 facilities). Effective January 31, 2020, KMLT entered into separate Administrative Settlement Agreements and Orders on Consent (ASAOC) to complete remedial design for two distinct areas within the PHSS associated with KMLT’s facilities. The ASAOC obligates KMLT to pay a share of the remedial design costs for cleanup activities related to these two areas as required by the ROD. Our share of responsibility for the PHSS costs will not be determined until the ongoing non-judicial allocation process is concluded or a lawsuit is filed that results in a judicial decision allocating responsibility. At this time we anticipate the non-judicial allocation process will be complete in or around JuneOctober 2023. Until the allocation process is completed, we are unable to reasonably estimate the extent of our liability for the costs related to the design of the proposed remedy and cleanup of the PHSS. Because costs associated with any remedial plan are expected to be spread over at least several years, we do not anticipate that our share of the costs of the remediation will have a material adverse impact to our business.

In addition to CERCLA cleanup costs, we are reviewing and will attempt to settle, if possible, natural resource damage (NRD) claims in the amount of approximately $5 million asserted by state and federal trustees following their natural resource assessment of the PHSS. At this time, we are unable to reasonably estimate the extent of our potential NRD liability.

Uranium Mines in Vicinity of Cameron, Arizona

In the 1950s and 1960s, Rare Metals Inc., a historical subsidiary of EPNG, mined approximately 20 uranium mines in the vicinity of Cameron, Arizona, many of which are located on the Navajo Indian Reservation. The mining activities were in response to numerous incentives provided to industry by the U.S. to locate and produce domestic sources of uranium to support the Cold War-era nuclear weapons program. In May 2012, EPNG received a general notice letter from the EPA notifying EPNG of the EPA’s investigation of certain sites and its determination that the EPA considers EPNG to be a PRP within the meaning of CERCLA. In August 2013, EPNG and the EPA entered into an Administrative Order on Consent and Scope of Work pursuant to which EPNG is conducting environmental assessments of the mines and the immediate vicinity. On September 3, 2014, EPNG filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona seeking cost recovery and contribution from the applicable federal government agencies toward the cost of environmental activities associated with the mines. The U.S. District Court issued an order on April 16, 2019 that allocated 35% of past and future response costs to the U.S. The decision does not provide or establish the scope of a remedial plan with respect to the sites, nor does it establish the total cost for addressing the sites, all of which remain to be determined in subsequent proceedings and adversarial actions, if necessary, with the EPA. Until such issues are determined, we are unable to reasonably estimate the extent of our potential liability. Because costs associated with any remedial plan approved by the EPA are expected to be spread over at least several years, we do not anticipate that our share of the costs of the remediation will have a material adverse impact to our business.

Lower Passaic River Study Area of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site, New Jersey

EPEC Polymers, Inc. (EPEC Polymers) and EPEC Oil Company Liquidating Trust (EPEC Oil Trust), former El Paso Corporation entities now owned by KMI,(collectively EPEC) are involvedidentified as PRPs in an administrative action under CERCLA known as the Lower Passaic River Study Area (Site) concerning the lower 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River. It has been alleged thatRiver in New Jersey. EPEC Polymers and EPEC Oil Trust may be PRPs under CERCLA based on prior ownership and/or operation of properties located along the relevant section of the Passaic River. EPEC Polymers and EPEC Oil Trust entered into two Administrative Orders on Consent (AOCs) with the EPA which obligate themobligates EPEC to investigate and characterize contamination at the Site. They are alsoEPEC is part of a joint defense group of approximately 44 cooperating parties referred to as the Cooperating Parties Group (CPG), which is directing and funding the AOC work required by the EPA. Under the first AOC, the CPG submitted draft remedial investigation and feasibility studies (RI/FS) of the Site to the EPA in 2015, and EPA approval remains pending. Under the second AOC, the CPG conducted a CERCLA removal action at the Passaic River Mile 10.9, and is obligated to conduct EPA-directed post-remedy monitoring in the removal area. We have established a reserve for the anticipated cost of compliance with these two AOCs.

On March 4, 2016, the EPA issued itsa Record of Decision (ROD) for the lower 8 miles of the Site. At that time the final cleanup plan in the ROD was estimated by the EPA to cost $1.7 billion. On October 5, 2016, the EPA entered into an AOC with Occidental Chemical Company (OCC), a member of the PRP group requiring OCC to spend an estimated $165 million to perform engineering and design work necessary to begin the cleanup of the lower 8 miles of the Site. The design work is underway. Initial expectations were that the design work would take four years to complete. The cleanup is expected to take at least six years to complete once it begins.

In addition, the EPA and numerous PRPs, including EPEC, Polymers, are engaged in an allocation process for the implementation of the remedy for the lower 8 miles of the Site.

Louisiana Governmental Coastal Zone Erosion Litigation

Beginning in 2013, several parishes in Louisiana and the City of New Orleans filed separate lawsuits in state district courts in Louisiana against a number of oil and gas companies, including TGP and SNG. In these cases, the parishes and New Orleans, as Plaintiffs, allege that certain of the defendants’ oil and gas exploration, production and transportation operations were conducted in violation of the State and Local Coastal Resources Management Act of 1978, as amended (SLCRMA) and that those operations caused substantial damage to the coastal waters of Louisiana and nearby lands. The Plaintiffs seek, among other relief, unspecified money damages, attorneys’ fees, interest, and payment of costs necessary to restore the affected areas. There are more than 40 of these cases pending in Louisiana against oil and gas companies, 1 of which is against TGP and 1 of which is against SNG, both described further below.

On November 8, 2013, the Parish of Plaquemines, Louisiana filed a petition for damages in the state district court for Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana against TGP and 17 other energy companies, alleging that the defendants’ operations in Plaquemines Parish violated SLCRMA and Louisiana law, and caused substantial damage to the coastal waters and nearby lands. Plaquemines Parish seeks, among other relief, unspecified money damages, attorney fees, interest, and payment of costs necessary to restore the allegedly affected areas. In May 2018,December 2013, the case was removed to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. In May 2019,April 2015, the U.S. District Court ordered the case wasto be remanded to the state district court for Plaquemines Parish. AtIn May 2018, the samecase was removed for a second time to the U.S. District Court. In May 2019, the U.S. District Court certifiedordered the case to be remanded to the state district court. The case is effectively stayed pending the resolution of jurisdictional issues in separate, consolidated cases to which TGP is not a party; The Parish of Plaquemines, et al. vs. Chevron USA, Inc. et al. consolidated with The Parish of Cameron, et al. v. BP America Production Company, et al. Those cases were removed to federal jurisdiction issuecourt and ordered to be remanded to the state district courts for review byPlaquemines and Cameron Parishes, respectively. The defendants to those consolidated cases are pursuing an appeal of the U.S. Fifth Circuitremand decisions to the United States Court of Appeals. On August 10, 2020,Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirmed remand.The defendants filed a motion for rehearing whichto determine whether there is pending.federal officer jurisdiction. The case remains effectively stayed pending a final ruling by the Court of Appeals.Fifth Circuit in the consolidated case. Until these and other issues are determined, we are not able to reasonably estimate the extent of our potential liability, if any. We will continue to vigorously defend this case.

On March 29, 2019, the City of New Orleans and Orleans Parish (collectively, Orleans) filed a petition for damages in the state district court for Orleans Parish, Louisiana against SNG and 10 other energy companies alleging that the defendants’
26


operations in Orleans Parish violated the SLCRMA and Louisiana law, and caused substantial damage to the coastal waters and nearby lands. Orleans seeks, among other relief, unspecified money damages, attorney fees, interest, and payment of costs necessary to restore the allegedly affected areas. In April 2019, the case was removed to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. In May 2019, Orleans moved to remand the case to the state district court. In January 2020, the U.S. District Court ordered the case to be stayed and administratively closed pending the resolution of issues in a separate case to which SNG is not a party; Parish of Cameron vs. Auster Oil & Gas, Inc., pending in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana; after which either party may move to re-open the case. Until these and other issues are determined, we are not able to reasonably estimate the extent of our potential liability, if any. We will continue to vigorously defend this case.

Louisiana Landowner Coastal Erosion Litigation

Beginning in January 2015, several private landowners in Louisiana, as Plaintiffs, filed several separate lawsuits in state district courts in Louisiana against a number of oil and gas pipeline companies, including 3 cases against TGP, 2 cases against SNG, and 1 case against both TGP and SNG. In these cases, the Plaintiffs allege that the defendants failed to properly maintain pipeline canals and canal banks on their property, which caused the canals to erode and widen and resulted in substantial land loss, including significant damage to the ecology and hydrology of the affected property, and damage to timber and wildlife. The Plaintiffs allege the defendants’ conduct constitutes a breach of the subject right of way agreements, is inconsistent with prudent operating practices, violates Louisiana law, and that defendants’ failure to maintain canals and canal banks constitutes negligence and trespass. The plaintiffs seek, among other relief, unspecified money damages, attorney fees, interest, and payment of costs necessary to return the canals and canal banks to their as-built conditions and restore and remediate the affected property. The Plaintiffs also seek a declaration that the defendants are obligated to take steps to maintain canals and canal banks going forward. We have resolved two of these cases and we will continue to vigorously defend the remaining cases.While it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcomes, we believe the resolution of these cases will not have a material adverse impact to our business.

Products Pipeline Incident, Walnut Creek, California

On November 20, 2020, SFPP identified an issue on its Line Section 16 (LS-16) which transports petroleum products in California from Concord to San Jose. We shut down the pipeline and notified the appropriate regulatory agencies of a “threatened release” of gasoline. We investigated the issue over the next several days and on November 24, 2020, identified a crack in the pipeline and notified the regulatory agencies of a “confirmed release.” The damaged section of the pipeline was removed and replaced, and the pipeline resumed operations on November 26, 2020. We reported the estimated volume of gasoline released to be 8.1 Bbl. On December 2, 2020, complaints of gasoline odors were reported along the LS-16 pipeline corridor in Walnut Creek. A unified response was implemented by us along with the U.S. EPA, the California Office of Spill Prevention and Response, the California Fire Marshall, and the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board. On December 8, 2020, we reported an updated estimated spill volume of up to 1,000 Bbl.

On October 28, 2021, we were informed by the California Attorney General it was contemplating criminal charges against us asserting the November 2020 discharge of gasoline affected waters of the State of California, and there was a failure to make timely notices of this discharge to appropriate state agencies. On December 16, 2021, we entered into a plea agreement with the State of California to resolve misdemeanor charges of the unintentional, non-negligent discharge of gasoline resulting from the release and the claimed failure to provide timely notices of the discharge to appropriate state agencies. Under the plea agreement, SFPP plead no-contest to two misdemeanors and paid approximately $2.5 million in fines, penalties, restitution, environmental improvement project funding, and for enforcement training in the State of California, and was placed on informal, unsupervised probation for a term of 18 months.

Since the November 2020 release, we have cooperated fully with federal and state agencies and have worked diligently to remediate the affected areas. We anticipate civil enforcement actions by federal and state agencies arising from the November 2020 release as well as ongoing monitoring and, where necessary, remediation under the oversight of the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board until site conditions demonstrate no further actions are required. We do not anticipate the costs to resolve those enforcement matters, including the costs to monitor and further remediate the site, will have a material adverse impact to our business.

General

Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcomes, we believe that the resolution of the environmental matters set forth in this note, and other matters to which we and our subsidiaries are a party, will not have a material adverse effect on our business. As of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we have accrued a total reserve for environmental liabilities in the amount of $256$240 million and $250$243 million, respectively. In addition, as of both March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we had a receivable of $12 million recorded for expected cost recoveries that have been deemed probable.

10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Updates

Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)

On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU)ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. Rate (SOFR).
29


Entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Entities can also elect various optional expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met.

On January 7, 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope.” This ASU clarifies that all derivative instruments affected by changes to the interest rates used for discounting, margining or contract price alignment (the “Discounting Transition”) are in the scope of ASC 848 and therefore qualify for the available temporary optional expedients and exceptions. As such, entities that employ derivatives that are the designated hedged item in a hedge relationship where perfect effectiveness is assumed can continue to apply hedge accounting without de-designating the hedging relationship to the extent such derivatives are impacted by the Discounting Transition.

The guidance iswas effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. We are currently reviewing the effect of Topic 848 to our financial statements.

(Brookfield) completed the sale of a combined 25% interest in our joint venture, NGPL Holdings LLC (NGPL Holdings), to a fund controlled by ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC (ArcLight). We received net proceeds of $413 million for our proportionate share of the interests sold which included the transfer of $125 million of our $500 million related party promissory note receivable from NGPL Holdings to ArcLight with quarterly interest payments at 6.75%. We recognized a pre-tax gain of $206 million for our proportionate share, which is included within “Other, net” in our accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Upon closing, we and Brookfield each hold a 37.5% interest in NGPL Holdings.

February 2021 Winter Storm

Our first quarter earnings reflect impacts of the February 2021 winter storm that affected Texas, which are largely nonrecurring. See “—Segment Earnings Results” below. Some of the transactions executed during the winter storm remain subject to risks, including counterparty financial risk, potential disputed purchases and sales and potential legislative or regulatory action in response to, or litigation arising out of, the unprecedented circumstances of the winter storm, which could adversely affect our future earnings, cash flows and financial condition.

20212022 Dividends and Discretionary Capital

We expect to declare dividends of $1.08$1.11 per share for 2021,2022, a 3% increase from the 20202021 declared dividends of $1.05$1.08 per share. We alsonow expect to invest $0.8$1.5 billion in expansion projects and contributions to joint ventures or discretionary capital expenditures during 2021.2022.

The expectations for 20212022 discussed above involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and are not guarantees of performance.  Many of the factors that will determine these expectations are beyond our ability to control or predict, and because of these uncertainties, it is advisable not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. Furthermore, we plan to provide updates to these 2021 expectations when we believe previously disclosed expectations no longer have a reasonable basis.

Results of Operations

Overview

As described in further detail below, our management evaluates our performance primarily using the GAAP financial measures of Segment EBDA (as presented in Note 7, “Reportable Segments”) and netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc., along with the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Earnings and DCF, both in the aggregate and per share for each, Adjusted Segment EBDA, Adjusted EBITDA Net Debt and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA.Debt.

GAAP Financial Measures

The Consolidated Earnings Results for the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 20202021 present Segment EBDA and netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Segment EBDA is a useful measure of our operating performance because it measures the operating results of our segments before DD&A and certain expenses that are generally not controllable by our business segment operating managers, such as general and administrative expenses and corporate charges, interest expense, net, and income taxes. Our general and administrative expenses and corporate charges include such items as unallocated employee benefits, insurance, rentals, unallocated litigation and environmental expenses, and shared corporate services including accounting, information technology, human resources and legal services.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our non-GAAP financial measures described below should not be considered alternatives to GAAP netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. or other GAAP measures and have important limitations as analytical tools. Our computations of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. You should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Management compensates for the limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures by reviewing our comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures and taking this information into account in its analysis and its decision making processes.

Certain Items

Certain Items, as adjustments used to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures, are items that are required by GAAP to be reflected in netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc., but typically either (i) do not have a cash impact (for example, unsettled commodity hedges and asset impairments), or (ii) by their nature are separately identifiable from our normal business operations and in our view are likely to occur only sporadically (for example, certain legal settlements, enactment of new tax legislation and casualty losses). We also include adjustments related to joint ventures (see “Amounts from Joint Ventures” below and the tables included in “—Consolidated Earnings Results (GAAP)—Certain Items Affecting Consolidated Earnings Results,” “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures—Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. (GAAP) to
31


Adjusted EBITDA” and “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures—Supplemental Information” below). In addition, Certain Items are described in more detail in the footnotes to tables included in “—Segment Earnings Results” and “—DD&A, General and Administrative and Corporate Charges, Interest, net, and Noncontrolling Interests” below.

Adjusted Earnings

Adjusted Earnings is calculated by adjusting netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. for Certain Items. Adjusted Earnings is used by us and certain external users of our financial statements to assess the earnings of our business excluding Certain Items as another reflection of our ability to generate earnings. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted Earnings is netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. Adjusted Earnings per share uses Adjusted Earnings and applies the same two-class method used in arriving at basic earnings (loss) per share. See “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures—Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. (GAAP) to Adjusted Earnings to DCF” below.

DCF

DCF is calculated by adjusting netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. for Certain Items (Adjusted Earnings), and further by DD&A and amortization of excess cost of equity investments, income tax expense, cash taxes, sustaining capital expenditures and other items. We also include amounts from joint ventures for income taxes, DD&A and sustaining capital expenditures (see “Amounts from Joint Ventures” below). DCF is a significant performance measure useful to management and external users of our financial statements in evaluating our performance and in measuring and estimating the ability of our assets to generate cash earnings after servicing our debt, paying cash taxes and expending sustaining capital, that could be used for discretionary purposes such as dividends, stock repurchases, retirement of debt, or expansion capital expenditures. DCF should not be used as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to DCF is netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. DCF per share is DCF divided by average outstanding shares, including restricted stock awards that participate in dividends. See “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures—Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. (GAAP) to Adjusted Earnings to DCF” and “—Adjusted Segment EBDA to Adjusted EBITDA to DCF” below.

Adjusted Segment EBDA

Adjusted Segment EBDA is calculated by adjusting Segment EBDA for Certain Items attributable to the segment. Adjusted Segment EBDA is used by management in its analysis of segment performance and management of our business. We believe Adjusted Segment EBDA is a useful performance metric because it provides management and external users of our financial statements additional insight into the ability of our segments to generate cash earnings on an ongoing basis. We believe it is useful to investors because it is a measure that management uses to allocate resources to our segments and assess each segment’s performance. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted Segment EBDA is Segment EBDA. See “—Consolidated Earnings Results (GAAP)—Certain Items Affecting Consolidated Earnings Results” for a reconciliation of Segment EBDA to Adjusted Segment EBDA by business segment.

30


Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for Certain Items. We also include amounts from joint ventures for income taxes and DD&A (see “Amounts from Joint Ventures” below). Adjusted EBITDA is used by management and external users, in conjunction with our Net Debt (as described further below), to evaluate certain leverage metrics. Therefore, we believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is netNet income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. In prior periods Net income (loss) was considered the comparable GAAP measure and has been updated to Net income (loss) attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. for consistency with our other non-GAAP performance measures. See “—Adjusted Segment EBDA to Adjusted EBITDA to DCF” and “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures—Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA” below.

Amounts from Joint Ventures

Certain Items, DCF and Adjusted EBITDA reflect amounts from unconsolidated joint ventures and consolidated joint ventures utilizing the same recognition and measurement methods used to record “Earnings from equity investments” and “Noncontrolling interests,” respectively. The calculations of DCF and Adjusted EBITDA related to our unconsolidated and consolidated joint ventures include the same items (DD&A and income tax expense, and for DCF only, also cash taxes and sustaining capital expenditures) with respect to the joint ventures as those included in the calculations of DCF and Adjusted EBITDA for our wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries. (See “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures—Supplemental Information” below.) Although these amounts related to our unconsolidated joint ventures are included in the calculations of
32


DCF and Adjusted EBITDA, such inclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues, expenses or cash flows of such unconsolidated joint ventures.

Net Debt

Net Debt is calculated, based on amounts as of March 31, 2021,2022, by subtracting the following amounts from our debt balance of $33,234$32,083 million: (i) cash and cash equivalents of $1,377$84 million; (ii) debt fair value adjustments of $1,054$584 million; and (iii) the foreign exchange impact on Euro-denominated bonds of $109$10 million for which we have entered into currency swaps.swaps to convert that debt to U.S. dollars. Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is useful to investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating our leverage. We believe the most comparable measure to Net Debt is debt net of cash and cash equivalents.

The changes in Segment EBDA for our CO2 business segment are further explained by the following discussion of the significant factors driving Adjusted Segment EBDA in the comparable three-month periods ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020:2021:
$12393 million (110%(40%) increasedecrease in Oil and Gas Producing activities was primarily due to lowerhigher operating expenses of $163$153 million driven by athe benefit forrealized in the current2021 period realized from returning power to the grid by curtailing oil production during the February 2021 winter storm partially offset by lower volumes driven in part by the curtailed oil production, which decreased revenues by $24 million and lowerhigher realized crude oil and NGL prices which decreasedincreased revenues by $14$60 million; and

DD&A expense decreased $24 million in 2021 when compared to 2020 primarily due to non-cash impairments taken in the first quarter 2020 on our oil and gas producing assets.

General and administrative expenses and corporate charges adjusted for Certain Items increased $8decreased $3 million in 20212022 when compared to 20202021 primarily due to lowerhigher capitalized costs of $16$9 million reflecting reducedhigher capital spending primarily by our Natural Gas Pipelines business segmentand $5 million of lower environmental expenses partially offset by $10$5 million of cost savings associated with organizational efficiency efforts.higher employee labor and travel costs.

In the table above, we report our interest expense as “net,” meaning that we have subtracted interest income and capitalized interest from our total interest expense to arrive at one interest amount.  Our consolidated interest expense, net adjusted for Certain Items decreased $52$6 million in 20212022 when compared to 20202021 primarily due to lower LIBORlong-term average interest rates and long-term interestdebt balances, partially offset by higher LIBOR rates.

We use interest rate swap agreements to convert a portion of the underlying cash flows related to our long-term fixed rate debt securities (senior notes) into variable rate debt in order to achieve our desired mix of fixed and variable rate debt. As of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, approximately 14%8% and 16%21%, respectively, of the principal amount of our debt balances were subject to variable interest rates—either as short-term or long-term variable rate debt obligations or as fixed-rate debt converted to variable rates through the use of interest rate swaps. For more information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 5 “Risk“Risk Management—Interest Rate Risk Management” to our consolidated financial statements.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represents the allocation of our consolidated net income attributable to all outstanding ownership interests in our consolidated subsidiaries that are not owned by us.

Income Taxes

Our tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 20212022 was approximately $351$194 million as compared with $60tax expense of $351 million for the same period of 2020.2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

As of March 31, 2021,2022, we had $1,377$84 million of “Cash and cash equivalents,” an increasea decrease of $193$1,056 million from December 31, 2020.2021. Additionally, as of March 31, 2021,2022, we had borrowing capacity of approximately $3.9$3.6 billion under our $4 billion revolving credit facilityfacilities (discussed below in “—Short-term Liquidity”). As discussed further below, we believe our cash flows from operating activities, cash position and remaining borrowing capacity on our credit facilityfacilities are more than adequate to allow us to manage our day-to-day cash requirements and anticipated obligations.

We have consistently generated substantial cash flows from operations, providing a source of funds of $1,873$1,084 million and $893$1,873 million in the first three months of 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively. The period-to-period increasedecrease is discussed below in “—Cash Flows—Operating Activities.” We primarily rely on cash provided from operations to fund our operations as well as our debt service, sustaining capital expenditures, dividend payments and our growth capital expenditures. We believe our current cash on hand, our cash flows from operations, and our borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility are more than adequate to allow us to manage our cash requirements, including maturing debt, through 2021;expenditures; however, we may access the debt capital markets from time to time to refinance our maturing long-term debt.

Our board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.27$0.2775 per share for the first quarter of 2021,2022, a 3% increase over the dividend declared for the previous quarter. We expect to fully fund our dividend payments as well as our discretionary spending for 20212022 without funding from the capital markets and still have additional flexibility to engage in share repurchases on an opportunistic basis.markets.

During the first quarter, upon maturity, we repaid EPNG’s 8.625% senior notes, our 4.15% corporate senior notes, and the 1.50% series of our Euro denominated debt.

Short-term Liquidity

As of March 31, 2021,2022, our principal sources of short-term liquidity are (i) cash from operations; and (ii) our combined $4.0 billion revolvingof credit facilityfacilities and associated commercial paper program; and (iii) cash and cash equivalents.program. The loan commitments under our revolving credit facilityfacilities can be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes and as a backup to our commercial paper program. Letters of credit and commercialCommercial paper borrowings reduce borrowings allowed under our credit facilities and letters of credit reduce borrowings allowed under our $3.5 billion credit facility. We provide for liquidity by maintaining a sizable amount of excess borrowing capacity under our credit facilityfacilities and, as previously discussed, have consistently generated strong cash flows from operations. We do not anticipate any significant limitations from the impacts of COVID-19 with respect to our ability to access funding through our credit facility.

As of March 31, 2021,2022, our $2,173$3,324 million of short-term debt consisted primarily of senior notes that mature in the next twelve months. We intend to fund our debt, as it becomes due, primarily through cash on hand, credit facility borrowings, commercial paper borrowings, cash flows from operations, and/or issuing new long-term debt. Our short-term debt balance as of December 31, 20202021 was $2,558$2,646 million.

We had working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) deficits of $884$3,417 million and $1,871$1,992 million as of March 31, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. From time to time, our current liabilities may include short-term borrowings used to finance our expansion capital expenditures, which we may periodically replace with long-term financing and/or pay down using retained cash from operations. The overall $987$1,425 million favorableunfavorable change from year-end 20202021 was primarily due to (i) a $1,056 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents which includes $1,190 million related to repayments of approximately $385senior notes that matured in the first quarter of 2022 using cash on hand; (ii) net unfavorable short-term fair value adjustments on derivative contracts of $430 million; (iii) a $387 million increase in senior notes that mature in the next twelve months; and (iv) a $290 million increase in commercial paper borrowings; partially offset by (i) a $257 million increase in restricted deposits related to our derivative activity; (ii) a $221$202 million decrease in accrued interest; (iii) a $193combined $105 million increasefavorable change in cashour accounts receivables and cash equivalents;payables; and (iv) a $150$68 million decrease in accrued contingencies; and (v) an increase in accounts receivable, net of change in accounts payable, of $85 million, partially offset by a $186 million increase in current regulatory liabilities.contingencies. Generally, our working capital balance varies due to factors such as the timing of scheduled debt payments, timing differences in the collection and payment of receivables and payables, the change in fair value of our derivative contracts, and changes in our cash and cash equivalent balances as a result of excess cash from operations after payments for investing and financing activities.

Counterparty Creditworthiness

Some of our customers or other counterparties may experience severe financial problems that may have a significant impact on their creditworthiness. These financial problems may arise from our current global economic conditions, continued volatility of commodity prices, or otherwise. In such situations, we utilize, to the extent allowable under applicable contracts, tariffs and regulations, prepayments and other security requirements, such as letters of credit, to enhance our credit position relating to amounts owed from these counterparties. While we believe we have taken reasonable measures to protect against counterparty credit risk, we cannot provide assurance that one or more of our customers or other counterparties will not become financially distressed and will not default on their obligations to us or that such a default or defaults will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, future results of operations, or future cash flows. The balance of our allowance for credit losses as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, was $29 million and $26 million, respectively, reflected in “Other current assets” on our consolidated balance sheets.

Capital Expenditures

We account for our capital expenditures in accordance with GAAP. We also distinguish between capital expenditures that are maintenance/sustaining capital expenditures and those that are expansion capital expenditures (which we also refer to as discretionary capital expenditures). Expansion capital expenditures are those expenditures thatwhich increase throughput or capacity from that which existed immediately prior to the addition or improvement, and are not deducted in calculating DCF (see Results of Operations—Overview—Non-GAAP Financial Measures—DCF”). With respect to our oil and gas producing activities, we classify a capital expenditure as an expansion capital expenditure if it is expected to increase capacity or throughput (i.e., production capacity) from the capacity or throughput immediately prior to the making or acquisition of such additions or improvements. Maintenance capital expenditures are those thatwhich maintain throughput or capacity. The distinction
44


between maintenance and expansion capital expenditures is a physical determination rather than an economic one, irrespective of the amount by which the throughput or capacity is increased.

Budgeting of maintenance capital expenditures is done annually on a bottom-up basis. For each of our assets, we budget for and make those maintenance capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain safe and efficient operations, meet customer needs and comply with our operating policies and applicable law. We may budget for and make additional maintenance capital expenditures that we expect to produce economic benefits such as increasing efficiency and/or lowering future expenses. Budgeting and approval of expansion capital expenditures are generally made periodically throughout the year on a project-by-project basis in response to specific investment opportunities identified by our business segments from which we generally expect to receive sufficient returns to justify the expenditures. Generally, the determination of whether a capital expenditure is classified as a maintenance/sustaining or as an expansion capital expenditureexpenditures is made on a project level. The classification of our capital expenditures as expansion capital expenditures or as maintenance capital expenditures is made consistent with our accounting policies and is generally a straightforward process, but in certain circumstances can be a matter of management judgment and discretion. The classification has an impact on DCF because capital expenditures that are classified as expansion capital expenditures are not deducted from DCF, while those classified as maintenance capital expenditures are.

Summarized Combined Financial Information for Guarantee of Securities of Subsidiaries

KMI and certain subsidiaries (Subsidiary Issuers) are issuers of certain debt securities. KMI and substantially all of KMI’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (Subsidiary Guarantors), are parties to a cross guarantee agreement whereby each party to the agreement unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, the payment of specified indebtedness of each other party to the agreement.
