(b)Nature of Business


We primarily focus on providing midstream energy services, including including:

gathering, transmission,compressing, treating, processing, fractionation, storage, condensate stabilization, brine servicestransporting, storing, and marketing to producers ofselling natural gas, NGLs,gas;
fractionating, transporting, storing, and selling NGLs; and
gathering, transporting, stabilizing, storing, trans-loading, and selling crude oil and condensate. condensate, in addition to brine disposal services.


We connectAs of September 30, 2022, our midstream energy asset network includes approximately 12,500 miles of pipelines, 25 natural gas processing plants with approximately 5.9 Bcf/d of processing capacity, seven fractionators with approximately 320,000 Bbls/d of fractionation capacity, barge and rail terminals, product storage facilities, purchasing and marketing capabilities, brine disposal wells, a crude oil trucking fleet, and equity investments in certain joint ventures. Our operations are based in the United States, and our sales are derived primarily from domestic customers.

Our natural gas business includes connecting the wells of producers in our market areas to our gathering systems. Our gathering systems which consist of networks of pipelines that collect natural gas from points at or near producing wells and transport it to our processing plants or to larger pipelines for further transmission. We operate processing plants that remove NGLs from the natural gas stream whichthat is transported to the processing plants by our own gathering systems or by major interstate and intrastatethird-party pipelines. In conjunction with our gathering and processing business, we may purchase natural gas and NGLs from producers and other supply sources and sell that natural gas or NGLs to utilities, industrial consumers, other marketsmarketers, and pipelines. Our transmission pipelines receive natural gas from our gathering systems and from third partythird-party gathering and transmission systems and deliver natural gas to industrial end-users, utilities, and other pipelines.


Our fractionators separate NGLs into separate purity products, including ethane, propane, iso-butane, normal butane, and natural gasoline. Our fractionators receive NGLs primarily through our transmission lines that transport NGLs from eastEast Texas and from our southSouth Louisiana processing plants. Our fractionators also have the capability to receive NGLs by truck or rail terminals. We also have agreements pursuant to which third parties transport NGLs from our westWest Texas and centralCentral Oklahoma operations to our NGL transmission lines that then transport the NGLs to our fractionators. In addition, we have NGL storage capacity to provide storage for customers.

Across our businesses, we primarily earn our fees through various fee-based contractual arrangements, which include stated fee-only contract arrangements or arrangements with fee-based components where we purchase and resell commodities in connection with providing the related service and earn a net margin as our fee. We earn our net margin under our purchase and resell contract arrangements primarily as a result of stated service-related fees that are deducted from the price of the commodities purchased.

(2) Significant Accounting Policies


(a)Basis of Presentation

a.Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements arehave been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, are unaudited, and do not include all the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”)GAAP for complete financial statements. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made and are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Commission on February 16, 2022. Certain reclassifications were made to the financial statements for the prior period to conform to current period presentation. The effect of these reclassifications had no impact on previously reported members’ equity or net income. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(b)Adopted Accounting Standards


In March 2016,b.Revenue Recognition

The following table summarizes the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, CompensationStock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvementscontractually committed fees (in millions) that we expect to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”), which simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions. Effective January 1, 2017, we adopted ASU 2016-09. We prospectively adopted the guidance that requires excess tax benefits and deficiencies be recognized on the income statement. The cash flow statement guidance requires the presentation of excess tax benefits and deficiencies as an operating activity and the presentation of cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares for tax-withholding purposes as a financing activity, and this treatment is consistent withrecognize in our historical accounting treatment. Finally, we elected to estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest, which is consistent with our historical accounting treatment. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially affect the consolidated statements of operations, forin either revenue or reductions to cost of sales, from MVC and firm transportation contractual provisions. Under these agreements, our customers or suppliers agree to transport or process a minimum volume of commodities on our system over an agreed period. If a customer or supplier fails to meet the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.

In January 2017,minimum volume specified in such agreement, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350)Simplifyingcustomer or supplier is obligated to pay a contractually determined fee based upon the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step two of the goodwill impairment test referenced in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). As a result, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. However, the impairment loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including any interim impairment tests within those annual periods, with early application permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. In January 2017, we elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04,shortfall between actual volumes and the adoption had no impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will perform future goodwill impairment tests according to ASU 2017-04.

(c)Accounting Standards to be Adoptedcontractually stated volumes. All amounts in Future Periods

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)Amendments totable below are determined using the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASU 2016-02”). Lessees will need to recognize virtually all of their leases oncontractually-stated MVC or firm transportation volumes specified for each period multiplied by the balance sheet by recording a right-of-use asset and lease liability. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. Existing sale-leaseback guidance is replaced with a new model applicable to both lessees and lessors. Additional revisions have been made to embedded leases, reassessment requirements and lease term assessments including variable lease payment, discount rate and lease incentives. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Entities are required to adopt ASU 2016-02 using a modified retrospective transition. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02. This assessment includes the gathering and evaluation of our current lease contracts and the analysis of contracts that may contain lease components. While we cannot currently estimate the quantitative effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements, the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will increase our asset and liability balances on the consolidated balance sheetsrelevant deficiency or reservation fee. Actual amounts could differ due to the requiredtiming of revenue recognition or reductions to cost of right-of-use assetssales resulting from make-up right provisions included in our agreements, as well as due to nonpayment or nonperformance by our customers. We record revenue under MVC and corresponding lease liabilities for all lease obligationsfirm transportation contracts during periods of shortfall when it is known that are currently classifiedthe customer cannot, or will not, make up the deficiency. These fees do not represent the shortfall amounts we expect to collect under our MVC and firm transportation contracts, as operating leases. In addition, there are industry-specific concerns withwe generally do not expect volume shortfalls to equal the implementationfull amount of ASU 2016-02, including the application of ASU 2016-02 tocontractual MVCs and firm transportation contracts involving easements/right-of-ways, which will require further evaluation before we are able to fully assess the impact on our consolidated financial statements.during these periods.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which established ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). ASC 606 will replace existing revenue recognition requirements in GAAP and will require entities to recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration to which they expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. ASC 606 will also require significantly expanded disclosures containing qualitative and quantitative information regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”), which updated ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-12 clarifies certain core recognition principles, including collectability, sales tax presentation, noncash consideration, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition and disclosures no longer required if the full retrospective transition method is adopted. ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2016-12 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods, and are to be applied using the modified retrospective or full retrospective transition methods, with early application permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We will adopt ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method for annual and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2018.

We have aggregated and reviewed our contracts that are within the scope of ASC 606. Based on our evaluation to date, we do not anticipate the adoption of ASC 606 will have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, ASC 606 will affect how certain transactions are recorded in the financial statements. For each contract with a customer, we will need to identify our performance obligations, of which the identification includes careful evaluation of when control and the economic benefits of the commodities transfer from our customer to us. The evaluation of control will change the way we account for certain transactions, specifically those in which there is both a commodity purchase component and a service component. For contracts where control of commodities transfers to us before we perform our services, we generally have no performance obligation for our services, and accordingly, we will not consider these revenue-generating contracts. Based on that determination, all fees or fee-equivalent deductions stated in such contracts would reduce the cost to purchase commodities. Alternatively, for contracts where control of commodities transfers to us after we perform our services, we have performance obligations for our services. Accordingly, we will consider the satisfaction of these performance obligations as revenue-generating and recognize these fees as midstream service revenues at the time we satisfy our performance obligations. For contracts where control of commodities never transfers to us and we simply earn a fee for our services, we will recognize these fees as midstream services revenues at the time we satisfy our performance obligations. Based on our review of our performance obligations in our contracts with customers, we will change the statement of operations classification for certain transactions from revenue to cost of sales or from cost of sales to revenue. This reclassification of revenues and costs will have no effect on operating income.

Our performance obligations represent promises to transfer a series of distinct goods or services that are satisfied over time and that are substantially the same to the customer. As permitted by ASC 606, we will utilize the practical expedient that allows an entity to recognize revenue in the amount to which the entity has a right to invoice if an entity has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date. Accordingly, ASC 606 will not significantly affect the timing of income and expense on the statement of operations, and we will continue to recognize revenue at the time commodities are delivered or services are performed.

Based on the disclosure requirements of ASC 606, upon adoption, we expect to provide expanded disclosures relating to our revenue recognition policies and how these relate to our revenue-generating contractual performance obligations. In addition, we expect to present revenues disaggregated based on the type of good or service in order to more fully depict the nature of our revenues.

(d)    Property & Equipment

Impairment Review. We evaluate our property and equipment for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable when it exceeds the undiscounted sum of the future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Estimates of expected future cash flows represent management’s best estimate based on reasonable and supportable assumptions. When the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recognized impairments of $8.8 million, which related to the carrying values of rights-of-way that we are no longer using and an abandoned brine disposal well.

(e) Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is composed of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss), which consists of the effective portion of gains or losses on derivative financial instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges pursuant to ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, we reclassified an immaterial amount of losses from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings. For additional information, see “Note 13—Derivatives.”

(3) Acquisition


On January 7, 2016, ENLCJuly 1, 2022, we acquired all of the equity interest in the gathering and ENLK acquiredprocessing assets of Crestwood Equity Partners LP located in the Barnett Shale, for a 16%cash purchase price of $275.0 million plus working capital of $14.5 million. These assets include approximately 400 miles of lean and 84% voting interest, respectively,rich gas gathering pipeline and three processing plants with 425 MMcf/d of total processing capacity. We completed this acquisition to increase the scale of our North Texas assets and realize efficiencies by redeploying redundant assets to our other segments, including the Permian segment in EnLink Oklahoma T.O. for approximately $1.4 billion. The first installment of $1.02 billion for the acquisition was paid at closing. The second installment of $250.0 million was paid on January 6, 2017,near-term and the final installment of $250.0 million is due no later than January 7, 2018. ENLK’s installment payables are valued net of discount withinCCS business in the total purchase price.future.

The first installment of approximately $1.02 billion was funded by (a) approximately $783.6 million in cash paid by ENLK, which was primarily derived from the issuance of Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Units (“Series B Preferred Units”), (b) 15,564,009 common units representing limited liability company interests in ENLC issued directly by ENLC and (c) approximately $22.2 million in cash paid by ENLC. The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method.

(4) Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Goodwill is the cost of an acquisition less the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the acquired business. The fair value of goodwill is based on inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 inputs. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually as of October 31 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

We perform our goodwill assessments at the reporting unit level for all reporting units. We use a discounted cash flow analysis to perform the assessments. Key assumptions in the analysis include the use of an appropriate discount rate, terminal year multiples and estimated future cash flows, including volume and price forecasts and estimated operating and general and administrative costs. In estimating cash flows, we incorporate current and historical market and financial information, among other factors. Impairment determinations involve significant assumptions and judgments, and differing assumptions regarding any of these inputs could have a significant effect on the various valuations. If actual results are not consistent with our assumptions and estimates, or our assumptions and estimates change due to new information, we may be exposed to goodwill impairment charges, which would be recognized in the period in which the carrying value exceeds fair value.

During February 2016, we determined that weakness in the overall energy sector, driven by low commodity prices, together with a decline in our unit price, caused a change in circumstances warranting an interim impairment test. Based on these triggering events, we performed a goodwill impairment analysis in the first quarter of 2016 on all reporting units. Based on this analysis, a goodwill impairment loss for our Texas, Crude and Condensate, and Corporate reporting units in the amount of $873.3 million was recognized in the first quarter of 2016 and is included as an impairment loss on the consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. We concluded that the fair value of our Oklahoma reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, and the amount of goodwill disclosed on the consolidated balance sheet associated with this reporting unit is recoverable. Therefore, no goodwill impairment was identified or recorded for this reporting unit as a result of our goodwill impairment analysis.

During the first quarter of 2017, we elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04, which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step two of the goodwill impairment test referenced in ASC 350. Although no goodwill impairment tests were required during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we will perform future goodwill impairment tests according to ASU 2017-04. For additional information, see “Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies.”

Intangible Assets


Intangible assets associated with customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefits of the customer relationships, which rangeranged from ten10 to twenty20 years at the time the intangible assets were originally recorded. The weighted average amortization period for intangible assets is 14.9 years.

(8) Certain ProvisionsDeferred Tax Assets and Liabilities

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax liabilities, net of deferred tax assets, are included in “Deferred tax liability, net” in the consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2022, we had $153.6 million of deferred tax liabilities, net of $553.2 million of deferred tax assets, which included a $112.6 million valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2021, we had $137.5 million of deferred tax liabilities, net of $481.6 million of deferred tax assets, which included a $151.6 million valuation allowance.

A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets if all, or some portion, of such assets will more than likely not be realized. We have established a valuation allowance primarily related to federal and state tax operating loss carryforwards for which we do not believe a tax benefit is more likely than not to be realized. As of September 30, 2022, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of the Partnership Agreementdeferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance.

a.Common Unit Repurchase Program

In November 2020, the board of directors of the Managing Member (the “Board”) authorized a common unit repurchase program for the repurchase of up to (i) distributions on the ENLK Series B Preferred Units until such units convert into$100.0 million of outstanding ENLC common units and reauthorized such program in April 2021. The Board reauthorized ENLC’s common unit repurchase program and reset the amount available for repurchases of outstanding common units at up to $100.0 million effective January 1, 2022. In July 2022, the Board increased the amount available for repurchases to $200.0 million. Repurchases under the common unit repurchase program will be made, in accordance with applicable securities laws, from time to time in open market or (ii)private transactions and may be made pursuant to a trading plan meeting the Series C Preferred Units.requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. The repurchases will depend on market conditions and may be discontinued at any time.


On February 15, 2022, we and GIP entered into an agreement pursuant to which we agreed to repurchase, on a quarterly basis, a pro rata portion of the ENLC common units held by GIP, based upon the number of common units purchased by us during the preceding quarter from public unitholders under our common unit repurchase program. See “Note 5—Related Party Transactions” for additional information on our ENLC common unit repurchase agreement with GIP.

The General Partner ownsfollowing table summarizes our ENLC common unit repurchase activity for the general partner interest in ENLKthree and all of its incentive distribution rights. The General Partner is entitled to receive incentive distributions if the amount ENLK distributes with respect to any quarter exceeds levels specified in its partnership agreement. Under the quarterly incentive distribution provisions, the General Partner is entitled to 13.0% of amounts ENLK distributes in excess of $0.25 per unit, 23.0% of the amounts ENLK distributes in excess of $0.3125 per unit and 48.0% of amounts ENLK distributes in excess of $0.375 per unit.

(e)Allocation of ENLK Income

(1)For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the units represent GIP’s pro rata share of the aggregate number of common units repurchased by us under our common unit repurchase program during the third quarter and the period from February 15, 2022 (the date on which the Repurchase Agreement was signed) through June 30, 2022, respectively.
Net income is allocated(2)For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the per unit price we paid to GIP was the average per unit price paid by us for publicly held ENLC common units repurchased during the third quarter and from February 15, 2022 (the date on which the Repurchase Agreement was signed) through June 30, 2022, respectively, less broker commissions, which were not paid with respect to GIP units.

Additionally, on October 31, 2022, we repurchased 3,538,101 ENLC common units held by GIP at an aggregate cost of $33.5 million, or an average of $9.47 per common unit. These units represent GIP’s pro rata share of the aggregate number of common units repurchased by us during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The per unit price we paid to GIP was the same as the average per unit price paid by us for publicly held ENLC common units repurchased during the same period, less broker commissions, which were not paid with respect to the General Partner in an amount equal to its incentive distribution rights as described in (d) above. The General Partner’s share of net income consists of incentive distribution rights to the extent earned, a deduction for unit-based compensation attributable to ENLC’s restricted units and the percentage interest of ENLK’s net income adjusted for ENLC’s unit-based compensation specifically allocated to the General Partner. The net income allocated to the General Partner is as follows (in millions):GIP units.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the General Partner and EnLink Midstream Manager, LLC, our managing member, grantedc.ENLC Performance Units

ENLC grants performance awards under the GP Plan and the LLC Plan, respectively.2014 Plan. The performance award agreements provide that the vesting of performance units (i.e., performance-based restricted incentive unitsunits) granted thereunder is dependent on the achievement of certain total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance goals relative to the TSR achievement of a peer group of companies (the “Peer Companies”) over the applicable performance period. The performance award agreements contemplate that the Peer Companies for an individual performance award (the “Subject Award”) are the companies comprising the Alerian MLP Index for Master Limited Partnerships (“AMZ”), excluding ENLC and ENLK (collectively, “EnLink”), on the grant date for the Subject Award. The performance units will vest based on the percentile ranking of the average of ENLC’s and ENLK’s TSR achievement (“EnLink TSR”) for the applicable performance period relative to the TSR achievement of the Peer Companies.

At the end of the vesting period, recipients receive distribution equivalents, if any, with respect to the number of performance units vested. The vesting of such units rangeranges from zero to 200% of the units granted depending on the EnLink TSR as comparedextent to which the TSR ofrelated performance goals are achieved over the Peer Companies on the vesting date. The fair value of eachrelevant performance unit is estimated as of the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation with the following assumptions used for all performance unit grants made under the plan: (i) a risk-free interest rate based on United States Treasury rates as of the grant date; (ii) a volatility assumption based on the historical realized price volatility of ENLK’s common units and the designated peer group securities; (iii) an estimated ranking of ENLK among the designated peer group; and (iv) the distribution yield. The fair value of the performance unit on the date of grant is expensed over a vesting period of approximately three years. The following table presents a summary of the grant-date fair value assumptions by performance unit grant date:period.

Interest Rate Swaps

We periodically enter intoThe components of the unrealized gain on designated cash flow hedge related to changes in the fair value of our interest rate swaps in connection with new debt issuances. During the debt issuance process, we are exposed to variability in future long-term debt interest payments that may result from changes in the benchmark interest rate (commonly the U.S. Treasury yield) prior to the debt being issued. In order to hedge this variability, we enter into interest rate swaps to effectively lock in the benchmark interest rate at the inception of the swap. Prior to 2017, we did not designate interest rate swapswere as hedges and, therefore, included the associated settlement gains and losses asfollows (in millions):

Commodity Swaps


We manage our exposure to changes in commodity prices by hedging the impact of market fluctuations. Commodity swaps are used to manage and hedge price and location risk related to these market exposures. Commodity swaps are also used to manage margins on offsetting fixed-price purchase or sale commitments for physical quantities of crude, condensate, natural gas and NGLs. We do not designate commodity swap transactions as cash flow or fair value hedges for hedge accounting treatment under ASC 815. Therefore, changes in the fair value of our derivatives are recorded in revenue in the period incurred. In addition, our risk management policy does not allow us to take speculative positions with our derivative contracts.

We commonly enter into index (float-for-float) or fixed-for-float swaps in order to mitigate our cash flow exposure to fluctuations in the future prices of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil. For natural gas, index swaps are used to protect against the price exposure of daily priced gas versus first-of-month priced gas. They are also used to hedge the basis location price risk resulting from supply and markets being priced on different indices. For natural gas, NGLs, condensate and crude, fixed-for-float swaps are used to protect cash flows against price fluctuations: (1) where we receive a percentage of liquids as a fee for processing third-party gas or where we receive a portion of the proceeds of the sales of natural gas and liquids as a fee, (2) in the natural gas processing and fractionation components of our business and (3) where we are mitigating the price risk for product held in inventory or storage.

On all transactions where we are exposed to counterparty risk, we analyze the counterparty’s financial condition prior to entering into an agreement, establish limits, and monitor the appropriateness of these limits on an ongoing basis. We primarily deal with two types of counterparties, financial institutions and other energy companies, when entering into financial derivatives on commodities. We have entered into Master International Swaps and Derivatives Association Agreements (“ISDAs”)ISDAs that allow for netting of swap contract receivables and payables in the event of default by either party. If our counterparties failed to perform under existing commodity swap contracts, ourthe maximum loss on our gross receivable position of $4.7$76.9 million as of September 30, 20172022 would be reduced to $1.7$30.3 million due to the offsetting of gross fair value payables against gross fair value receivables as allowed by the ISDAs.

(13) Fair Value Measurements


ASC 820, Fair Value MeasurementsAssets and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), sets forth a framework for measuring fair value and required disclosures about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. Fair value under ASC 820 is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, use of unobservable prices or inputs are used to estimate the current fair value, often using an internal valuation model. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the item being valued.

ASC 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Our derivative contracts primarily consist of commodity swap contracts, which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair values of commodity swap contracts are determined using discounted cash flow techniques. The techniques incorporate Level 1 and Level 2 inputs for future commodity prices that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly-quoted markets. These market inputs are utilized in the discounted cash flow calculation considering the instrument’s term, notional amount, discount rate and credit risk and are classified as Level 2 in hierarchy.

Net assets (liabilities)liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below (in millions):

Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The estimated fair value of our financial instruments has been determined using available market information and valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required to develop the estimates of fair value; thus, the estimates provided below are not necessarily indicative of the amount we could realize upon the sale or refinancing of such financial instruments (in millions):

(2)Consideration for the Amarillo Rattler Acquisition included a $10.0 million installment payable, which was paid on April 30, 2022, and a contingent component capped at $15.0 million and payable, if at all, between 2024 and 2026 based on Diamondback E&P LLC’s drilling activity above historical levels. Estimated fair values were calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis that utilized Level 3 inputs.

The carrying value of long-term debt is reduced by debt issuance costs of $27.2 million and $24.6 million at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The respective fair values do not factor in debt issuance costs.


The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities.


ENLK had no outstanding borrowings under the ENLK Credit Facility as of September 30, 2017 and $120.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the ENLK Credit Facility as of December 31, 2016. ENLC had $74.0 million and $27.8 million in outstanding borrowings under the ENLC Credit Facility as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. As borrowings under the credit facilities accrue interest under floating interest rate structures, the carrying value of such indebtedness approximates fair value for the amounts outstanding under the credit facilities. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, ENLK had total borrowings under senior unsecured notes of $3.5 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively, maturing between 2019 and 2047 with fixed interest rates ranging from 2.7% to 5.6% and 2.7% to 7.1%, respectively. The fair values of all senior unsecured notes and installment payables as of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 20162021 were based on Level 2 inputs from third-party market quotations. The fair values of obligations under capital leases were calculated using Level 2 inputs from third-party banks.

(15) Commitments and Contingencies

(a)Severance and Change in Control Agreements

Certain members of our management are parties to severance and change of control agreements with EnLink Midstream Operating, LP. The severance and change in control agreements provide those individuals with severance payments in certain circumstances and prohibit such individuals from, among other things, competing with the General Partner or its affiliates during his or her employment. In addition, the severance and change of control agreements prohibit subject individuals from, among other things, disclosing confidential information about the General Partner or its affiliates or interfering with a client or customer of the General Partner or its affiliates, in each case during his or her employment and for certain periods (including indefinite periods) following the termination of such person’s employment.

(b)Environmental Issues

The operation of pipelines, plants and other facilities for the gathering, processing, transmitting, stabilizing, fractionating, storing or disposing of natural gas, NGLs, crude oil, condensate, brine and other products is subject to stringent and complex laws and regulations pertaining to health, safety and the environment. As an owner, partner or operator of these facilities, we must comply with United States laws and regulations at the federal, state and local levels that relate to air and water quality, hazardous and solid waste management and disposal, oil spill prevention, climate change, endangered species and other environmental matters. The cost of planning, designing, constructing and operating pipelines, plants, and other facilities must account for compliance with environmental laws and regulations and safety standards. Federal, state, or local administrative decisions, developments in the federal or state court systems, or other governmental or judicial actions may influence the interpretation and enforcement of environmental laws and regulations and may thereby increase compliance costs. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may trigger a variety of administrative, civil and potentially criminal enforcement measures, including citizen suits, which can include the assessment of monetary penalties, the imposition of remedial requirements and the issuance of injunctions or restrictions on operation. Management believes that, based on currently known

(16) Commitments and Contingencies

In February 2021, the second quarterareas in which we operate experienced a severe winter storm, with extreme cold, ice, and snow occurring over an unprecedented period of 2017,approximately 10 days (“Winter Storm Uri”). As a result of Winter Storm Uri, we reached a settlement agreement with the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency with respecthave encountered customer billing disputes related to the previously disclosed noticesdelivery of violation (“NOVs”) relating to certain of our ORV operationsgas during the storm, including one that were previously operated by a joint venture partner.resulted in litigation. The settlement paymentlitigation is not material to our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

On July 29, 2016, after concluding a multi-year internal environmental compliance assessment of our Louisiana operations, we commenced discussions with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (“LDEQ”) relating to: (a) a global settlement to resolve environmental noncompliance discovered or investigated during our assessment involving several of our Louisiana facilities and (b) notices of potential violation and NOVs received from the LDEQ. We have taken appropriate measures to resolve all instances of noncompliance. In the third quarter of 2017, we reached a global settlement with the LDEQ pursuant to which we paid approximately $0.3 million.

As part of our ongoing environmental and regulatory compliance efforts, we discovered instances of non-compliance with certain environmental regulations atbetween one of our north Texas plantssubsidiaries, EnLink Gas Marketing, LP (“EnLink Gas”), and self-reported these mattersKoch Energy Services, LLC (“Koch”) in the 162nd District Court in Dallas County, Texas. The dispute centers on whether EnLink Gas was excused from delivering gas or performing under certain delivery or purchase obligations during Winter Storm Uri, given our declaration of force majeure during the storm. Koch has invoiced us approximately $53.9 million (after subtracting amounts owed to EnLink Gas) and does not recognize the Texas Commission on Environment Quality (“TCEQ”). On October 4, 2017,declaration of force majeure. We believe the declaration of force majeure was valid and appropriate and we received and accepted an Agreed Order from the TCEQ relatedintend to these instances of non-compliance. The final penalty assessed was not material to the resultsvigorously defend against Koch’s claims.

Another of our operations, financial condition or cash flows.subsidiaries, EnLink Energy GP, LLC, is also involved in litigation arising out of Winter Storm Uri. This matter is a multi-district litigation currently pending in Harris County, Texas, in which multiple individual plaintiffs assert personal injury and property damage claims arising out of Winter Storm Uri against an aggregate of over 350 power generators, transmission/distribution utility, retail electric provider, and natural gas defendants across over 150 filed cases. We believe the claims against our subsidiary lack merit and we intend to vigorously defend against such claims.


Finally,In addition, we continue to await a ruling from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration regarding the notice of potential violation discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

(c)Litigation Contingencies

We are involved in various litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, any liabilities that may result from these claims would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In July 2013, the Board of Commissioners for the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority for New Orleans and surrounding areas filed a lawsuit against approximately 100 energy companies, seeking, among other relief, restoration of wetlands allegedly lost due We may also be involved from time to historic industry operations in those areas. The suit was filed in Louisiana state court in New Orleans but was removed to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. The amount of damages is unspecified. Our subsidiary, EnLink LIG, LLC, is one of the named defendants as the owner of pipelinestime in the area. On February 13, 2015, the court granted defendants’ joint motion to dismiss and dismissed the plaintiff’s claims with prejudice. Plaintiffs appealed the matter to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. On March 3, 2017, the Court of Appeals affirmed the district court’s dismissal of the plaintiff’s claims. On March 17, 2017, the plaintiff filed a petition for rehearing. On April 12, 2017, the Court of Appeals denied the plaintiffs petition for rehearing. On July 11, 2017, the plaintiffs filed a petition for appeal with the United States Supreme Court, which was denied on October 30, 2017.

We own and operate a high-pressure pipeline and underground natural gas and NGL storage reservoirs and associated facilities near Bayou Corne, Louisiana. In August 2012, a large sinkhole formedfuture in various proceedings in the vicinitynormal course of thisbusiness, including litigation on disputes related to contracts, property rights, property use or damage (including nuisance claims), personal injury, or the value of pipeline and underground storage reservoirs, resulting in damage to certaineasements or other rights obtained through the exercise of our facilities. In order to recover our losses from responsible parties, we sued the operator of a failed cavern in the area, and its insurers, seeking recovery for these losses, as well as other parties we alleged contributed to the formation of the sinkhole. We also filed a claim with our insurers, which our insurers denied. We disputed the denial and sued our insurers. We have reached settlements regarding the entirety of our claims in both lawsuits. In August 2014, we received a partial settlement with respect to our claims in the amount of $6.1 million. We secured additional settlement payments in aggregate amounts of $17.5 million and $8.5 million in March 2017 and June 2017, respectively, which resulted in the recognition of “Gain on litigation settlement” on the consolidated statements of operations of $26.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.eminent domain or common carrier rights.

Overview


We areENLC is a Delaware limited liability company formed in October 2013. OurENLC’s assets consist of equity interests in EnLink Midstream Partners, LP and EnLink Oklahoma T.O. EnLink Midstream Partners, LP is a publicly traded limited partnership engaged in the gathering, transmission, processing and marketing of natural gas and NGLs, condensate and crude oil, as well as providing crude oil, condensate and brine services to producers. EnLink Oklahoma T.O., a partnership owned by ENLK and ENLC, is engaged in the gathering and processing of natural gas. Our interests in EnLink Midstream Partners, LP and EnLink Oklahoma T.O. consistedall of the following as of September 30, 2017:

88,528,451outstanding common units representing an aggregate 21.8% limited partner interest in ENLK;

100.0% ownership interest in EnLink Midstream Partners GP, LLC, the general partner of ENLK (the “General Partner”), which owns a 0.4% general partner interest and all of the incentive distribution rights in ENLK;membership interests of the General Partner. All of our midstream energy assets are owned and

16% limited partner interest in EnLink Oklahoma T.O.

Each of operated by ENLK and EnLink Oklahoma T.O. is required by its partnership agreement to distribute all its cash on hand at the end of each quarter, less reserves established by its general partner in its sole discretion to provide for the proper conduct of ENLK’s or EnLink Oklahoma T.O.’s business, as applicable, or to provide for future distributions.

The incentive distribution rights in ENLK entitle us to receive an increasing percentage of cash distributed by ENLK as certain target distribution levels are reached. Specifically, they entitle us to receive 13.0% of all cash distributed in a quarter after each common unit has received $0.25 for that quarter, 23.0% of all cash distributed after each common unit has received $0.3125 for that quarter and 48.0% of all cash distributed after each common unit has received $0.375 for that quarter.

Since we control the General Partner, we reflect our ownership interest in ENLK on a consolidated basis. Our consolidated results of operations are derived from the results of operations of ENLK and also include our deferred taxes, interest of non-controlling interests in ENLK’s net income, interest income (expense) and general and administrative expenses specific to ENLC that are not reflected in ENLK’s results of operations. Accordingly, the discussion of our financial position and results of operations in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” primarily reflects the operating activities and results of operations of ENLK.
subsidiaries. We primarily focus on providing midstream energy services, including including:

gathering, compressing, treating, processing, transmission, fractionation, storage, condensate stabilization, brine servicestransporting, storing, and marketing to producers ofselling natural gas, NGLs,gas;
fractionating, transporting, storing, and selling NGLs; and
gathering, transporting, stabilizing, storing, trans-loading, and selling crude oil and condensate. Ourcondensate, in addition to brine disposal services.

As of September 30, 2022, our midstream energy asset network includes approximately 11,00012,500 miles of pipelines, 2025 natural gas processing plants with approximately 4.5 billion cubic feet per day5.9 Bcf/d of processing capacity, 7seven fractionators with approximately 260,000 barrels per day320,000 Bbls/d of fractionation capacity, barge and rail terminals, product storage facilities, purchasing and marketing capabilities, brine disposal wells, a crude oil trucking fleet, and equity investments in certain joint ventures. We manage and report our activities primarily according to the nature of activity and geography.

We have five reportable segments:evaluate the financial performance of our segments by including realized and unrealized gains and losses resulting from commodity swaps activity in the Permian, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and North Texas segments. Identification of the majority of our operating segments is based principally upon geographic regions served:


Permian Segment. The Permian segment includes our natural gas gathering, processing, and transmission activities and our crude oil operations in the Midland and Delaware Basins in West Texas Segment. and Eastern New Mexico;

Louisiana Segment. The Louisiana segment includes our natural gas and NGL pipelines, natural gas processing plants, natural gas and NGL storage facilities, and fractionation facilities located in Louisiana and our crude oil operations in ORV;

Oklahoma Segment. The Oklahoma segment includes our natural gas gathering, processing, and transmission activities, and our crude oil operations in the Cana-Woodford, Arkoma-Woodford, northern Oklahoma Woodford, STACK, and CNOW shale areas;

North Texas Segment. The North Texas segment includes our natural gas gathering, processing, transmission and fractionation operations in north Texas and the Midland and Delaware basins in west Texas;

Oklahoma Segment. The Oklahoma segment includes our natural gas gathering and processingtransmission activities in Cana-Woodford, Arkoma-Woodford, Northern Oklahoma Woodford, Sooner Trend Anadarko Basin CanadianNorth Texas; and


Kingfisher Counties (“STACK”), South Central Oklahoma Oil Province (“SCOOP”) and Central Northern Oklahoma Woodford Shale areas;

Louisiana Segment. The Louisiana segment includes our natural gas pipelines, natural gas processing plants, storage facilities and NGL assets located in Louisiana;

Crude and Condensate Segment. The Crude and Condensate segment includes our Ohio River Valley (“ORV”) crude oil, condensate, condensate stabilization, natural gas compression and brine disposal activities in the Utica and Marcellus Shales, our crude oil operations in the Permian Basin and our crude oil activities associated with our Victoria Express Pipeline and related truck terminal and storage assets located in the Eagle Ford Shale; and

Corporate Segment. Segment. The Corporate segment includes our unconsolidated affiliate investments in the Cedar Cove JV in Oklahoma, our contractual right toGCF in South Texas, and the economic burdens and benefits associated with Devon’s ownership interestMatterhorn JV in Gulf Coast Fractionators (“GCF”) in southWest Texas and our general partnership propertycorporate assets and expenses. Until March 2017, the Corporate segment included our unconsolidated affiliate investment in Howard Energy Partners (“HEP”). In December 2016, we entered into an agreement to sell our ownership interest in HEP, and we finalized the sale in March 2017.


We manage our consolidated operations by focusing on adjusted gross operating margin because our business is generally to gather, process, transport, or market natural gas, NGLs, crude oil, and condensate using our assets for a fee. We earn our fees through various fee-based contractual arrangements, which include stated fixed-feefee-only contract arrangements or arrangements with fee-based components where we purchase and resell commodities in connection with providing the related service and earn a net margin as our fee. We earn our net margin under our purchase and resell contract arrangements primarily as a result of stated service-related fees that are deducted from the price of the commodity purchase. While our transactions vary in form, the essential element of each transactionmost of our transactions is the use of our assets to transport a product or provide a processed product to an end-user or marketer at the tailgate of the plant, pipeline, or barge, terminaltruck, or pipeline. We definerail terminal. Adjusted gross operating margin as operating revenue minus cost of sales.

Our revenues and “Midstream services” on the consolidated statements of operations.

We generate revenuesadjusted gross margins are generated from eight primary sources:


gathering and transporting natural gas, NGLs, and NGLscrude oil on the pipeline systems we own;
processing natural gas at our processing plants;
fractionating and marketing recovered NGLs;
providing compression services;
providing crude oil and condensate transportation and terminal services;
providing condensate stabilization services;
providing brine disposal services; and
providing gas, crude, and NGL storage.

Our gross operating margins are determined primarily by the volumes of:

natural gas, gathered, transported, purchased and sold through our pipeline systems;
natural gas processed at our processing facilities;
NGLs handled at our fractionation facilities;
crude oil, and condensate handled atNGL storage.

The following customers individually represented greater than 10% of our crude terminals;
consolidated revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The loss of these customers would have a material adverse impact on our results of operations because the revenues and adjusted gross margin received from transactions with these customers is material to us. No other customers represented greater than 10% of our consolidated revenues during the periods presented.

We attempt to execute substantially all purchases and sales concurrently, or we enter into a future delivery obligation, thereby establishing the basis for the fee we will receive for each natural gas transaction. Our gathering and transportation fee related to a percentage of the index price can be adversely affected by declines in the price of natural gas. We are also party to certain long-term gas sales commitments that we satisfy through supplies purchased under long-term gas purchase agreements. When we enter into those arrangements, our sales obligations generally

match our purchase obligations. However, over time, the supplies that we have under contract may decline due to reduced drilling or other causes, and we may be required to satisfy the sales obligations by buying additional gas at prices that may exceed the prices received under the sales commitments. In our purchase/sale transactions, the resale price is generally based on the same index at which the gas was purchased.

On occasion we have entered into certain purchase/sale transactions in which the purchase price is based on a production-area index and the sales price is based on a market-area index, and we capture the difference in the indices (also referred to as “basis spread”), less the transportation expenses from the two areas, as our fee. Changes in the basis spread can increase or decrease our margins or potentially result in losses. For example, we are a party to one contract associated with our north Texas operations with a term to 2019 to supply approximately 150,000 MMBtu/d of gas. We buy gas for this contract on several different production-area indices and sell the gas into a different market area index. We realize a cash loss on the delivery of gas under this contract each month based on current prices. The fair value of this performance obligation was recorded based on forecasted discounted cash obligations in excess of market prices under this gas delivery contract. As of September 30, 2017, the balance sheet reflects a liability of $31.4 million related to this performance obligation. Narrower basis spreads in recent periods have increased the losses on this contract, and greater losses on this contract could occur in future periods if these conditions persist or become worse.
 
We typically transport and fractionate or store NGLs owned by others for a fee based on the volume of NGLs transported and fractionated or stored. We also buy mixed NGLs from our suppliers to our gas processing plants at a fixed discount to market indices for the component NGLs with a deduction for our fractionation fee. We subsequently sell the fractionated NGL products based on the same index-based prices. To a lesser extent, we transport and fractionate or store NGLs owned by others for a fee based on the volume of NGLs transported and fractionated or stored. The operating results of our NGL fractionation business are largely dependent upon the volume of mixed NGLs fractionated and the level of fractionation fees charged. With our fractionation business, we also have the opportunity for product upgrades for each of the discrete NGL products. We realize higher adjusted gross operating margins from product upgrades during periods with higher NGL prices.
 
We typically gather or transport crude oil and condensate owned by others by rail, truck, pipeline, and barge facilities for a net fee-based margin.under fee-only contract arrangements based on volumes gathered or transported. We also buy crude oil and condensate on our own gathering systems, third-party systems, and trucked from a producerproducers at a fixed discount tomarket index less a market index,stated transportation deduction. We then transport and resell the crude oil and condensate at the same market index.through a process of basis and fixed price trades. We execute substantially all purchases and sales concurrently, thereby establishing the feenet margin we will receive for each crude oil and condensate transaction.


We realize adjusted gross operating margins from our gathering and processing services primarily through different contractual arrangements: processing marginsmargin (“margin”), percentage contracts, POL contracts, POP contracts, fixed-fee based contracts, or a combination of liquids (“POL”), percentagethese contractual arrangements. See “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk—Commodity Price Risk” for a detailed description of proceeds (“POP”)these contractual arrangements. Under any of these gathering and processing arrangements, we may earn a fee for the services performed, or fixed-fee based.we may buy and resell the gas and/or NGLs as part of the processing arrangement and realize a net margin as our fee. Under margin contract arrangements, our adjusted gross operating

margins are higher during periods of high NGL prices relative to natural gas prices. Gross operatingAdjusted gross margin results under POL contracts are impacted only by the value of the liquids produced with margins higher during periods of higher liquids prices. Gross operatingAdjusted gross margin results under POP contracts are impacted only by the value of the natural gas and liquids produced with margins higher during periods of higher natural gas and liquids prices. Under fixed-fee based contracts, our adjusted gross operating margins are driven by throughput volume. See “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk—Commodity Price Risk.”
 
Operating expenses are costs directly associated with the operations of a particular asset. Among the most significant of these costs are those associated with direct labor and supervision, property insurance, property taxes, repair and maintenance expenses, contract services, and utilities. These costs are normally fairly stable across broad volume ranges and therefore do not normally increase or decrease significantly in the short term with increases or decreases in the volume of gas, liquids, crude oil, and condensate moved through or by our assets.

CCS Business

We are currently developing an integrated offering to bring CCS services to businesses along the asset.Mississippi River corridor in Louisiana, one of the highest CO2 emitting regions in the United States. We believe our existing asset footprint, including our extensive network of natural gas pipelines in Louisiana, our operating expertise and our customer relationships, provide EnLink an advantage in building a CCS business.


Recent Developments Affecting Industry Conditions and Our Business


Organic GrowthCurrent Market Environment


Black Coyote Crude Oil Gathering System. WeThe midstream energy business environment and our business are expandingaffected by the level of production of natural gas and oil in the coreareas in which we operate and the various factors that affect this production, including commodity prices, capital markets trends, competition, and regulatory changes. We believe these factors will continue to affect production and therefore the demand for midstream services and our business in the future. To the extent these factors vary from our underlying assumptions, our business and actual results could vary materially from market expectations and from the assumptions discussed in this section.

Production levels by our exploration and production customers are driven in large part by the level of oil and natural gas prices. New drilling activity is necessary to maintain or increase production levels as oil and natural gas wells experience production declines over time. New drilling activity generally moves in the STACK play in Central Oklahoma with the construction of a newsame direction as crude oil gathering system thatand natural gas prices as those prices drive investment returns and cash flow available for reinvestment by exploration and production companies. Accordingly, our operations are affected by the level of crude, natural gas, and NGL prices, the relationship among these prices, and related activity levels from our customers.

There has been, and we refer to as “Black Coyote.” Black Coyotebelieve there will primarily be built on dedicated acreage from Devon, who will be the main shipper on the system. The system is expectedcontinue to be, operationalvolatility in commodity prices and in the relationships among NGL, crude oil, and natural gas prices. Commodity markets have now recovered from the reduction in global demand and low market prices experienced in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, oil and natural gas prices continue to remain volatile. Oil and natural gas prices rose during 2021 and rose especially rapidly in the first quarterhalf of 2018.

Chisholm Plants. In April 2017, we completed construction2022 due to various factors, including a rebound in demand from economic activity after COVID-19 shutdowns, supply issues, and geopolitical events, including Russia’s invasion of a new cryogenicUkraine. Since that time, both oil and natural gas processing plant, referred to as Chisholm II, which provides 200 MMcf/d of processing capacity and is tied to new and existing pipelinesprices have moderated from their peaks earlier in the STACKyear, although as of the date of this report, the market price for both oil and SCOOP playsnatural gas are at higher levels than either has traded in Oklahoma. The new capacity is supported by newrecent years.

Capital markets and existing long-term contracts.

the demands of public investors also affect producer behavior, production levels, and our business. Over the last several years, public investors have exerted pressure on oil and natural gas producers to increase capital discipline and focus on higher investment returns even if it means lower growth. In addition, we commenced constructionthe ability of a new processing plant referred to as Chisholm III in April 2017. Chisholm III will provide an additional 200 MMcf/d of processing capacity and will be tied to new and existing pipelinescompanies in the STACKoil and SCOOP plays. Construction is scheduledgas industry to be completedaccess the capital markets on favorable terms has been negatively impacted during this same period. This demand by investors for increased capital discipline from energy companies, as well as the difficulties in accessing capital markets, led to more modest capital investment by producers, curtailed drilling and production activity, and, accordingly, slower growth for us and other midstream companies during the fourth quarterpast few years. This trend was amplified in 2020 by the COVID-19 pandemic, which reduced demand for commodities. However, in response to the rise of 2017.oil and natural gas prices during 2021 and in 2022 to date, capital investments by United States oil and natural gas producers have begun to rise, although global capital investments by oil and natural gas producers remain below historical levels and producers continue to remain cautious.

Greater Chickadee Crude Oil Gathering System.Producers generally focus their drilling activity on certain producing basins depending on commodity price fundamentals and favorable drilling economics. In March 2017, we completed construction and began operations of a crude oil gathering system in Upton and Midland counties, Texasthe last few years, many producers have increasingly focused their activities in the Permian Basin, because of the availability of higher investment returns. Currently, a large percentage of all drilling rigs operating in the
38

United States are operating in the Permian Basin. We continue to experience a robust increase in volumes in our Permian segment as our operations in that basin are in a favorable position relative to producer activity. As a result of this concentration of drilling activity in the Permian Basin, other basins, including those in which we operate in Oklahoma and North Texas, have experienced reduced investment and declines in volumes produced. However, the rise in commodity prices during 2022 has led to renewed producer interest in both Oklahoma and North Texas and we expect activity to increase in both areas for the remainder of 2022 and during 2023.

Our Louisiana segment, while subject to commodity price trends, is less dependent on gathering and processing activities and more affected by industrial demand for the natural gas and NGLs that we refer to as “Greater Chickadee.” Greater Chickadee includes over 185 milessupply. Industrial demand along the Gulf Coast region has remained strong throughout 2021 and through the first three quarters of high-2022, supported by regional industrial activity and low-pressure pipelines that transport crude oil volumes to several major market outletsexport markets. Our activities and, other key hub centersin turn, our financial performance in the Midland, Texas area. Greater Chickadee also includes multiple central tank batteries, together with pump, truck injectionLouisiana segment is highly dependent on the availability of natural gas and storage stationsNGLs produced by our upstream gathering and processing business and by other market participants. To date, the supply of natural gas and NGLs has remained at levels sufficient for us to maximize shippingsupply our customers, and delivery options for our producer customers.
Marathon Petroleum Joint Venture. In March 2017, we completed construction and began operating a new NGL pipeline, which is part of our 50/50 joint venture with a subsidiary of Marathon Petroleum Company (“Marathon Petroleum”). This joint venture, Ascension Pipeline Company, LLC (the “Ascension JV”),maintaining such supply is a bolt-on project tokey business focus.

For additional discussion regarding these factors, see “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Business and Industry Risks” in our Cajun-Sibon NGL system and is supported by long-term, fee-based contracts with Marathon Petroleum.

Lobo Natural Gas Gathering and Processing Facilities. The Lobo facilities are part of our joint venture (the “Delaware Basin JV”) with an affiliate of NGP Natural Resources XI, LP (“NGP”). In the first quarter of 2017, we completed the expansion of a 75-mile gathering system located in Texas and New MexicoAnnual Report on Form 10-K for our Lobo II processing facility. In the second quarter of 2017, we completed the construction of an additional expansion of the Lobo II processing facility, which provides an additional 60 MMcf/d of processing capacity. Furthermore, we are constructing an additional expansion to Lobo II, which will increase capacity by 30 MMcf/d and is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2017.

In addition, we will be expanding the gas processing capacity at our Lobo facilities by 200 MMcf/d through construction of the Lobo III processing facility, which is expected to be operational by the second half of 2018.

Sale of Non-Core Assets
In March 2017, we finalized the sale of our ownership interest in HEP for net proceeds of $189.7 million. For the year ended December 31, 2016,2021 filed with the Commission on February 16, 2022.

Regulatory Developments

On January 20, 2021, the Biden Administration came into office and immediately issued a number of executive orders related to climate change and the production of oil and gas that could affect our operations and those of our customers, particularly those who may operate on public lands. While none of these initiatives to date have materially affected our operations or those of our customers, the Biden Administration could seek, in the future, to put into place executive orders, policy and regulatory reviews, or seek to have Congress pass legislation that could adversely affect the production of oil and natural gas, and our operations and those of our customers.

Only a small percentage of our operations are derived from customers operating on public land, mainly in the Delaware Basin. Our operations in the Delaware Basin are expected to represent only approximately 6% of our total segment profit, net to EnLink, during 2022. In addition, we recordedhave a robust program to monitor and prevent methane emissions in our operations and we maintain a comprehensive environmental program that is embedded in our operations. However, our activities that take place on public lands require that we and our producer customers obtain leases, permits, and other approvals from the federal government. While the future rules and rulemaking initiatives under the Biden Administration remain uncertain, the regulations that might result from such initiatives, could lead to increased costs for us or our customers, difficulties in obtaining leases, permits, and other approvals for us and our customers, reduced utilization of our gathering, processing, and pipeline systems or reduced rates under renegotiated transportation or storage agreements in affected regions.

On August 16, 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "IRA") into law. The enhancements to the 45Q carbon sequestration tax credits provided by the IRA should expand and support the development of our CCS business, while the other provisions are not expected to have a material impact to our business.

Any regulatory changes could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to make cash distributions to our unitholders. For more information, see our risk factors under “Environmental, Legal Compliance, and Regulatory Risk” in Section 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Commission on February 16, 2022.

Other Recent Developments

Organic Growth and Acquisition

Acquisition of Barnett Shale Assets. On July 1, 2022, we acquired all of the equity interest in the gathering and processing assets of Crestwood Equity Partners LP located in the Barnett Shale, for a cash purchase price of $275.0 million plus working capital of $14.5 million. These assets include approximately 400 miles of lean and rich gas gathering pipeline and three processing plants with 425 MMcf/d of total processing capacity. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 3” for more information regarding this acquisition.

Matterhorn Express Pipeline Joint Venture. On May 16, 2022, we entered into an impairment lossagreement with WhiteWater Midstream, LLC, Devon Energy Corporation, and MPLX LP to construct a pipeline designed to transport up to 2.5 Bcf/d of $20.1natural gas through approximately 490 miles of 42-inch pipeline from Waha Hub in West Texas to Katy, Texas. Supply for the Matterhorn JV will be sourced from multiple upstream connections in the Permian Basin, including direct connections to processing facilities in the Midland Basin through an approximately 75-mile lateral, as well as a direct connection to the 3.2 Bcf/d Agua

Blanca Pipeline. The Matterhorn Express Pipeline is expected to be in service in the third quarter of 2024, pending the receipt of customary regulatory and other approvals.

Phantom Processing Plant. In November 2021, we began moving equipment and facilities associated with the Thunderbird processing plant in Central Oklahoma to the Midland Basin. We completed the relocation of the Phantom processing plant in October 2022, which increased our Permian Basin processing capacity by 235 MMcf/d.

CCS Business

ExxonMobil Agreement. In October 2022, we entered into a transportation services agreement with a subsidiary of ExxonMobil in connection with the development of a CCS project in the Mississippi River corridor in southeastern Louisiana. Under this agreement, we will deliver CO2 from the Mississippi River corridor to ExxonMobil’s storage location in Vermilion Parish. The reserved capacity available under this agreement is up to 10 million metric tonnes per year, with initial reserved capacity of 3.2 million metric tonnes per year, beginning in early 2025.

BKV Agreement. In June 2022, we entered into an agreement with BKV to develop a CCS project in the Barnett Shale. Under this agreement, we will separate CO2 from lean gas in our North Texas gathering systems and from rich gas delivered to our natural gas processing plant in Bridgeport, Texas. The CO2 waste stream will then be captured, compressed, transported, and sequestered by BKV, beginning in late 2023.

Debt and Equity

Amended AR Facility Agreement. On August 1, 2022, we amended certain terms of the AR Facility to, among other things, increase the commitments thereunder from $350.0 million to reduce$500.0 million and extend the carrying value ofscheduled termination date from September 24, 2024 to August 1, 2025. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6” for more information.

Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement. On June 3, 2022, we amended and restated our investment toprior revolving credit facility by entering into the expected sales price. Upon the final sale of HEP in March 2017, we recorded an additional loss of $3.4 millionRevolving Credit Facility. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6” for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.more information.


Senior Unsecured Notes due 2047

Issuance and Repurchases.

We used the net proceeds from the sale to the public of 99.981% of their face value. Interest payments on the 2047 Notes are payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning December 1, 2017. Net proceeds of approximately $495.2 million were usedsettle ENLK’s debt tender offer to repay outstanding borrowings under the ENLK Credit Facility and for general partnership purposes.

Redemption of Senior Unsecured Notes due 2022

On June 1, 2017, ENLK redeemed $162.5repurchase $700.0 million in aggregate principal amount of ENLK’s 7.125%its senior unsecured notes, (the “2022 Notes”) at 103.6%consisting of the principal amount, plus accrued unpaid interest,2024 Notes and 2025 Notes. Additionally, for aggregate cash consideration of $174.1 million, which resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $9.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.2022, we repurchased a portion of the outstanding 2024 Notes and 2025 Notes in open market transactions. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6” for more information regarding the activity related to our senior unsecured notes.


IssuanceCommon Unit Repurchase Program. Effective January 1, 2022, the Board reauthorized our common unit repurchase program and reset the amount available for repurchases of ENLK Common Unitsoutstanding common units at up to $100.0 million. In July 2022, the Board increased the amount available for repurchase to $200.0 million. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 9” for more information regarding our common unit repurchase program.


In November 2014, ENLKGIP Repurchase Agreement. On February 15, 2022, we and GIP entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “2014 EDA”) with BMO Capital Markets Corp. and other sales agentsagreement pursuant to sell up to $350.0 millionwhich we are repurchasing, on a quarterly basis, a pro rata portion of the ENLC common units held by GIP, based upon the number of common units purchased by us during the applicable quarter from public unitholders under our common unit repurchase program. The number of ENLC common units held by GIP that we repurchase in aggregate gross salesany quarter is calculated such that GIP’s then-existing economic ownership percentage of ENLK’sour outstanding common units is maintained after our repurchases of common units from timepublic unitholders are taken into account, and the per unit price we pay to time through an “atGIP is the market” equity offering program.
In August 2017, ENLK ceased trading under the 2014 EDA and entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “2017 EDA”) with UBS Securities LLC and other sales agents (collectively, the “Sales Agents”) to sell up to $600.0 million in aggregate gross sales of ENLK’s common units from time to time through an “at the market” equity offering program. ENLK may also sell common units to any Sales Agent as principalaverage per unit price paid by us for the Sales Agent’s own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. ENLK has no obligation to sell any of the common units under the 2017 EDA and may at any time suspend solicitation and offers under the 2017 EDA.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, ENLK sold an aggregaterepurchased from public unitholders. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 9” for more information regarding repurchases of approximately 5.3 millionENLC common units under the 2014 EDA and 2017 EDA, generating proceedsheld by GIP.

Redemption of approximately $92.3 million (net of approximately $0.9 million of commissions and $0.2 million of registration fees). ENLK used the net proceeds for general partnership purposes. As of September 30, 2017, approximately $580.1 million remains available to be issued under the 2017 EDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We includeTo assist management in assessing our business, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: Cash available for distributionadjusted gross margin; adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, and gross operating margin.depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”); and free cash flow after distributions.


Cash Available for DistributionAdjusted Gross Margin


We calculate cash available for distribution as distributions due to us from ENLK and our interest in EnLink Oklahoma T.O.define adjusted EBITDA (as defined herein), less our share of maintenance capital attributable to our interest in EnLink Oklahoma T.O., our specific general and administrative costs as a separate public reporting entity, the interest costs associated with our debt and current taxes attributable to our earnings, plus our standalone impairment expense (if any). ENLC’s share of EnLink Oklahoma T.O. growth capital expenditures are funded by borrowings under the ENLC Credit Facility and are not considered in determining ENLC’s cash flow available for distribution.

Cash available for distribution is a supplemental performance measure used by us and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others. As ENLC is a holding company without any direct operations, ENLC primarily generates value for its unitholders by generating returns on its investments in other entities and subsequently distributing these returns in cash to its unitholders. Therefore, cash available for distribution serves as an important measure of ENLC’s profitability and serves as an indicator of ENLC’s success in providing a cash return on its investments to its unitholders.

Maintenance capital expenditures include capital expenditures made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets in order to maintain the existing operating capacity of the assets and to extend their useful lives. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures are expenditures to refurbish and replace pipelines, gathering assets, well connections, compression assets and

processing assets up to their original operating capacity, to maintain pipeline and equipment reliability, integrity and safety and to address environmental laws and regulations.

The GAAP measure most directly comparable to cash available for distribution is net income (loss). Cash available for distribution should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss). Cash available for distribution is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and has important limitations as an analytical tool. Investors should not consider cash available for distribution in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because cash available for distribution excludes some items that affect net income (loss) and is defined differently by different companies in our industry, our definition of cash available for distribution may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility.

Gross Operating Margin
We define gross operating margin as revenues less cost of sales.sales, exclusive of operating expenses and depreciation and amortization. We present adjusted gross operating margin by segment in “Results of Operations.” We disclose adjusted gross operating margin in addition to total revenuegross margin as defined by GAAP because it is the primary performance measure used by our management.management to evaluate consolidated operations. We believe adjusted gross operating margin is an important measure because, in general, our business is to purchase and resell natural gas, NGLs, condensate and crude oil for a margin or to gather, process, transport, or market natural gas, NGLs, condensate, and crude oil for a fee.fee or to purchase and resell natural gas, NGLs, condensate, and crude oil for a margin. Operating expense is a separate measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of field operations. Direct labor and supervision, property insurance, property taxes, repair and maintenance, utilities, and contract services comprise the most significant portion of our operating expenses. We do not deductexclude all operating expenses and depreciation and amortization from total revenue in calculatingadjusted gross operating margin because these expenses are largely independent of the volumes we transport or process and fluctuate depending on the activities performed during a specific period. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted gross operating margin is operating income (loss). Gross operatinggross margin. Adjusted gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, operating income (loss)gross margin as determined in accordance with GAAP. Gross operatingAdjusted gross margin has important limitations because it excludes all operating costsexpenses and depreciation and amortization that affect operating income (loss) except cost of sales.gross margin. Our adjusted gross operating margin may not be comparable to similarly-titledsimilarly titled measures of other companies because other entities may not calculate these amounts in the same manner.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (less) interest expense, net of interest income; depreciation and amortization; impairments; (income) loss from unconsolidated affiliate investments; distributions from unconsolidated affiliate investments; (gain) loss on disposition of assets; (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt; unit-based compensation; income tax expense (benefit); unrealized (gain) loss on commodity swaps; costs associated with the relocation of processing facilities; accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations; transaction costs; non-cash expense related to changes in the fair value of contingent consideration; (non-cash rent); and (non-controlling interest share of adjusted EBITDA from joint ventures). Adjusted EBITDA is one of the primary metrics used in our short-term incentive program for compensating employees. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is used as a reconciliationsupplemental liquidity and performance measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts, and others, to assess:

the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure, or historical cost basis;
the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support our indebtedness, and make cash distributions to our unitholders;
our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy sector, without regard to financing methods or capital structure; and
the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities.

The GAAP measures most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA are net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), operating income (loss), net cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to grosssimilarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.

Adjusted EBITDA does not include interest expense, net of interest income; income tax expense (benefit); and depreciation and amortization. Because we have borrowed money to finance our operations, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate cash available for distribution. Because we have capital assets, depreciation and amortization are also necessary elements of our costs. Therefore, any measures that exclude these elements have material limitations. To compensate for these limitations, we believe that it is important to consider net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating marginactivities as determined under GAAP, as well as adjusted EBITDA, to evaluate our overall performance.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2016

Gross Operating Margin. Gross operating margin was $344.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $316.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $28.3 million, or 8.9%, duerelated to the following:

Texas Segment. Gross operating margin inrelocation of equipment and facilities from the Texas segment increased $2.6 million, which was primarily due to a $7.3 million increase from our Permian BasinThunderbird processing assets as a result of higher volumes. This increase was partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease due to volume declines across our north Texas assetsplant and a $2.0 million decrease due to the sale of the North Texas Pipeline (the “NTPL”) assets in December 2016.

Louisiana Segment. Gross operating margin in the Louisiana segment increased $4.9 million, which was primarily due to a $3.2 million increase from our gasBattle Ridge processing and transmission assets as a result of volume increases and a $1.8 million increase from our NGL business partially due to the start-up of our Ascension JV assets in April 2017.

Oklahoma Segment. Gross operating marginplant in the Oklahoma segment increased $30.4 million, whichto the Permian segment. The relocation of equipment and facilities from the Battle Ridge processing plant was primarily due to higher volumes on our central Oklahoma assets.

Crude and Condensate Segment. Gross operating margincompleted in the Crudethird quarter of 2021 and Condensate segment decreased $4.6 million, which was primarily duewe completed the relocation of equipment and facilities from the Thunderbird processing plant in October 2022.
(2)Includes transaction costs, non-cash expense related to a $3.8 million decrease as a result of condensate stabilization volume declines and transportation rate decreases on our ORV assets, in addition to a $2.3 million decrease from volume declines for the Permian Basin trucking business. These decreases were partially offset by a $2.2 million increase due to the Greater Chickadee gathering system, which became fully operationalchanges in the first quarterfair value of 2017.

Corporate Segment. Gross operating margin in the Corporate segment decreased $5.0 million as a result of losses on derivative activity. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, there were unrealized losses of $3.3 million and realized losses of $2.2 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, there were unrealized losses of $1.6 million, partially offset by realized gains of $1.1 million.

Certain gathering and processing agreements in our Texas, Oklahoma and Crude and Condensate segments provide for a quarterly or annual minimum volume commitment (“MVC”). Under these agreements, our customers agree to ship and/or process a minimum volume of production on our systems over an agreed time period. If a customer under such an agreement fails to meet its MVC for a specified period, the customer is obligated to pay a contractually-determined fee based upon the shortfall between actual volumes and the MVC for that period. Some of these agreements also contain make-up right provisions that allow a customer to utilize gathering or processing fees in excess of the MVC in subsequent periods to offset shortfall amounts in previous periods. We record revenue under agreements with MVCs during periods of shortfall when it is known that the customer cannot, or will not, make up the deficiency in the subsequent period.

Revenue recorded for the shortfall between actual production volumes and the MVC is as follows (in millions):

Operating expenses in the Oklahoma segment increased $4.5 million due to expanded operations, which resulted in increased labor and benefits charges and unit-based compensation expense due to increased headcount, as well as an increase in materials and supplies expense.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $31.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $29.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $2.0 million, or 6.8%. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to $1.6 million of higher unit-based compensationcontingent consideration, accretion expense associated with awards granted in 2017.asset retirement obligations and non-cash rent, which relates to lease incentives pro-rated over the lease term.

(3)Non-controlling interest share of adjusted EBITDA from joint ventures includes NGP’s 49.9% share of adjusted EBITDA from the Delaware Basin JV and Marathon Petroleum Corporation’s 50% share of adjusted EBITDA from the Ascension JV.

Free Cash Flow After Distributions

We define free cash flow after distributions as adjusted EBITDA, net to ENLC, plus (less) (growth and Amortization. Depreciationmaintenance capital expenditures, excluding capital expenditures that were contributed by other entities and amortization expenses were $136.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $126.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $10.1 million, or 8.0%. Of this increase, $4.5 million was attributablerelate to the expansionnon-controlling interest share of our central Oklahoma assets; $4.3 million was attributable to the plant expansionconsolidated entities); (interest expense, net of our Permian Basin processing assets; $1.2 million was attributable to the Greater Chickadee gathering system; and $0.7 million was attributable to the Ascension JV assets. These increases were partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in depreciation expense attributable to the sale of NTPL in December 2016.
(Gain) Lossinterest income); (distributions declared on Disposition of Assets. Losscommon units); (accrued cash distributions on disposition of assets was $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a gain of $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $4.1 million. The gain on disposition of assets for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to the retirement of certain plant assets and asset dispositions that resulted in the receipt of proceeds greater than the carrying values of the assets.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $49.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $48.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $1.2 million, or 2.5%. Interest expense consisted of the following (in millions):

Income (Loss) from Unconsolidated Affiliate Investments. Income from unconsolidated affiliate investments was $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to income of $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $3.3 million. This increase was primarily due to additional income from our GCF investment of $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as a result of higher fractionation revenues. In addition, for the three months ended September 30, 2016, income from unconsolidated affiliate investments included a loss of $1.1 million from our HEP investment, which was sold in March 2017.

Income Tax Benefit (Provision). Income tax expense was $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $4.5 million. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily attributable to lower state income tax expense between periods. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 7” for additional information.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $17.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to net income of $10.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $7.5 million. This increase was primarily due to an increase in net income at ENLK and an increase in outstanding ENLK common units, Series B Preferred Units and Series C Preferred Units that are not owned by ENLC.

Texas Segment. Gross operating margin in the Texas segment increased $4.1 million, which was primarily due to an $18.9 million increaseterminate interest rate swaps); (current income taxes); and proceeds from our Permian Basin processing assets as a result of higher volumes. This increase was offset by a $14.8 million decrease from our North Texas processing, gathering and transmission assets due to volume declines across our system, including a $9.7 million decrease due to the sale of equipment and land.

Free cash flow after distributions is the NTPL assets in December 2016.
Louisiana Segment. Gross operating margin inprincipal cash flow metric used by the Louisiana segment increased $18.7 million, which was primarily due to a $10.0 million increaseCompany. Free cash flow after distributions is one of the primary metrics used in our Louisiana gatheringshort-term incentive program for compensating employees. It is also used as a supplemental liquidity measure by our management and transmission assets due to additional volumes, a $3.8 million increase from our NGL transmission and fractionation assets due to additional NGL volumes received from our Oklahoma and Permian assets, and a $4.5 million increase due to the start-upby external users of our Ascension JV assets during 2017.

Oklahoma Segment. Gross operating margin infinancial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts, and others, to assess the Oklahoma segment increased $62.7 million, which was primarily due to a $68.4 million increase from our central Oklahoma assets as a result of higher volumes. This increase was partially offset by a $5.1 million decrease from our Northridge gathering and processing assets due to price and volume reductions under a third-party contract.

Crude and Condensate Segment. Gross operating margin in the Crude and Condensate segment decreased $16.2 million, which was primarily due to a $10.2 million decrease as a result of condensate stabilization volume declines and transportation rate decreases on our ORV assets, in addition to a $7.9 million decrease as a result of volume declines for our Midland Basin trucking business. These declines were partially offset by a $4.0 million increase due to the Greater Chickadee gathering system becoming fully operational in the first quarter of 2017.

Corporate Segment. Gross operating margin in the Corporate segment increased $5.5 million as a result of derivative activity. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, there were unrealized gains of $3.8 million, offset by realized losses of $4.9 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, there were unrealized losses of $16.0 million, partially offset by realized gains of $9.4 million.

Texas Segment. Operating expenses in the Texas segment increased $2.7 million primarily due to increased labor and benefits charges as a result of increased headcount and increased unit-based compensation expense, as well as increased operating costs from the Lobo II assets that went into service in the fourth quarter of 2016 as part of the Delaware Basin JV.

Louisiana Segment. Operating expenses in the Louisiana segment increased $2.6 million primarily due to increased regulatory, utilities, and materials and supplies expenses as a result of the start-up of the Ascension JV.

Oklahoma Segment. Operating expenses in the Oklahoma segment increased $8.7 million primarily due to increased labor and benefits charges attributable to higher headcount and increased materials and supplies expense as a result of expanded operations.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $98.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $94.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $3.8 million, or 4.0%. The primary contributors to the increase were as follows:

Unit-based compensation expense increased $10.8 million due to bonuses paid in the form of units that immediately vested in March 2017, as well as the accrual of annual bonuses for 2017.

We incurred $3.8 million of transaction costs and $1.5 million of transition service fees related to the EnLink Oklahoma T.O. acquisition for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, with no transaction costs incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Salaries and wages expense decreased $1.9 million due to severance payments made during 2016.


Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $407.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $373.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $34.1 million, or 9.1%. Of this increase, $18.0 million was attributable to the plant expansionability of our Permian Basin processing assets; $10.9 million was attributableassets to the expansion ofgenerate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, pay back our central Oklahoma assets; $3.7 million was attributable to the Greater Chickadee gathering system; $3.4 million was attributable to the acceleration of depreciation for some north Texas compressor stations decommissioned during 2017; $1.8 million was attributable to the Ascension JV assets; and the remaining increase was attributable to other assets placed in service. These increases were partially offset by a $3.5 million decrease in depreciation expense related to the sale of NTPL in December 2016.

(Gain) Loss on Disposition of Assets. Loss on disposition of assets was $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a gain of $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $3.7 million. The gain on disposition for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was due to the retirement of certain plant assets and asset dispositions that resulted in the receipt of proceeds greater than the carrying values of the assets.

Gain on Litigation Settlement. We recognized a gain on litigation settlement of $26.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 15” for additional information.

Gain on Extinguishment of Debt. We recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $9.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 due to the redemption of the 2022 Notes. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6” for additional information.
Impairments. Impairment expense was $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $873.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $864.5 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recognized impairments related to expired rights-of-way and an abandoned brine disposal well. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recognized an impairment on goodwill of $566.3 million related to our Texas and Crude and Condensate segments, as well as $307.0 million related to our Corporate segment. 

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $142.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $138.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $3.3 million, or 2.4%. Net interest expense consisted of the following (in millions):

Income (Loss) from Unconsolidated Affiliate Investments. Income from unconsolidated affiliate investments was $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a loss of $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $5.5 million. The increase was primarily due to additional income of $7.4 million from our GCF investment for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as a result of higher fractionation revenues and lower operating expenses.Partially offsetting this increase, income from our HEP investment decreased $1.8 million due to a $1.6 million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and a $3.4 million loss on sale for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Income Tax Benefit (Provision). Income tax expense was $9.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to income tax expense of $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $3.3 million. The increase in income tax expense was primarily attributable to an increase in taxable income between periods. Additionally, $2.3 million was attributable to tax deficiencies on restricted incentive units that vested in March 2017. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 7” for additional information.


Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $50.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a net loss of $402.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $453.2 million. This increase was primarily due to higher impairment expense at ENLK for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Critical Accounting Policies

Information regarding our Critical Accounting Policies is included in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, except as described below.

Impairment of Goodwill. Goodwill is the cost of an acquisition less the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the acquired business. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually as of October 31 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. We first assess qualitative factors to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as the basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a goodwill impairment test. We may elect to perform a goodwill impairment test without completing a qualitative assessment.
Prior to January 2017, if a goodwill impairment test was elected or required, we performed a two-step goodwill impairment test. The first step involved comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeded its fair value, the second step of the process involved comparing the implied fair value to the carrying value of the goodwill for that reporting unit. If the carrying value of the goodwill of a reporting unit exceeded the implied fair value of that goodwill, the excess of the carrying value over the implied fair value was recognized as an impairment loss.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350)Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step two of the goodwill impairment test referenced in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). As a result, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. However, the impairment loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including any interim impairment tests within those annual periods, with early application permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. In January 2017, we elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04, and the adoption had no impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will perform future goodwill impairment tests according to ASU 2017-04.

Except for the items discussed above, the methodology and assumptions used to perform our goodwill assessments remains consistent with that described in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $528.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $512.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Operating cash flows and changes in working capital for comparative periods were as follows (in millions):
 Nine Months Ended September 30,
 2017 2016
Operating cash flows before working capital$531.7
 $469.1
Changes in working capital(3.3) 43.4

Operating cash flows before changes in working capital increased $62.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to a $69.3 million increase in gross operating margin, excluding gains and losses on derivative activity, and a $26.0 million gain on litigation settlement, partially offset by a $21.2 million increase in interest expense, excluding amortization of debt issue costs and net discounts, and a $15.4 million decrease in cash received on derivative settlements. The changes in working capital for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were primarily due to fluctuations in trade receivable and

payable balances due to timing of collection and payments and changes in inventory balances attributable to normal operating fluctuations.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $475.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and $1,203.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our primary investing cash flows were as follows (in millions):
 Nine Months Ended September 30,
 2017 2016
Growth capital expenditures$(641.1) $(404.4)
Maintenance capital expenditures(21.4) (19.3)
Acquisition of business, net of cash acquired

Investment in unconsolidated affiliates(11.8) (45.0)
Proceeds from sale of unconsolidated affiliate investment189.7
 
Distribution from unconsolidated affiliate investments in excess of earnings7.3
 51.6

Growth capital expenditures increased $236.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was primarily due to capital expenditures related to the expansion of the central Oklahoma assets as well as expenditures for the Greater Chickadee crude oil gathering system in the Permian Basin and the Ascension JV assets in Louisiana.

Acquisition expenditures of $791.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were for the EnLink Oklahoma T.O. acquisition.

Investment in unconsolidated affiliates decreased $33.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to contributions of $45.0 million made to our HEP investment in 2016, including $32.7 million of contributions to HEP for preferred units. This decrease was partially offset by contributions to our Cedar Cove JV of $11.8 million in 2017.

Distributions from unconsolidated affiliates in excess of earnings decreased $44.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to the redemption of our preferred units interest in our HEP investment for $32.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The remaining difference was primarily due to decreased distributions following the sale of our HEP interest in March 2017.

In December 2016, we entered into an agreement to sell our ownership interest in HEP. We finalized the sale in March 2017 and received net proceeds of $189.7 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $77.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and $733.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our primary financing activities consisted of the following (in millions):
 Nine Months Ended September 30,

Payment of installment payable for EnLink Oklahoma T.O. acquisition(250.0) 


On May 11, 2017, ENLK issued $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of ENLK’s 5.450% senior unsecured notes due 2047 at a price to the public of 99.981% of their face value. Interest payments on the 2047 Notes are payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning December 1, 2017. Net proceeds of approximately $495.2 million were used to repay outstanding borrowings under ENLK’s credit facility and for general partnership purposes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, ENLK redeemed $162.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes at 103.6% of the principal amount, plus accrued unpaid interest, for aggregate cash consideration of $174.1 million, which included payments for accrued interest of $5.8 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, ENLK sold an aggregate of 5.3 million common units under the 2014 EDA and 2017 EDA, generating proceeds of $92.3 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, ENLK sold an aggregate of 6.7 million common units under the 2014 EDA, generating proceeds of $110.6 million.

In January 2016, ENLK issued an aggregate of 50,000,000 Series B Preferred Units for net proceeds of $724.1 million. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 8” for additional information.

In September 2017, ENLK issued 400,000 Series C Preferred Units for net proceeds of $393.7 million. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 8” for additional information.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, contributions by non-controlling interests included $43.9 million from NGP to the Delaware Basin JV and $2.3 million from Marathon Petroleum to the Ascension JV. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, contributions by non-controlling interests included $137.7 million from NGP to the Delaware Basin JV and $13.7 million from Marathon Petroleum to the Ascension JV.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, ENLK paid $250.0 million for the second installment payable obligation related to the EnLink Oklahoma T.O. acquisition.

Distributions to unitholders and non-controlling interests represent a primary use of cash in financing activities. Totalindebtedness, make cash distributions, made for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were as follows (in millions):
 Nine Months Ended September 30,
 2017 2016
Distributions to members$139.5
 $139.0
Distributions to non-controlling interests306.9
 284.3

Series B Preferred Unit distributions for 2016 and for the first two quarters for 2017 were paid in-kind by ENLK in the form of additional Series B Preferred Units. As these were non-cash distributions, they were not reflected in our financing cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2017, Series B Preferred Unit distributions are payable in cash (the “Cash Distribution Component”) at an amount per quarter equal to $0.28125 per Series B Preferred Unit plus an in-kind distribution equal to the greater of (a) 0.0025 Series B Preferred Units per Series B Preferred Unit and (b) an amount equal to (i) the excess, if any, of the distributions that would have been payable had the Series B Preferred Units converted into common units for that quarter over the Cash Distribution Component, divided by (ii) the issue price of $15.00.

Distributions on the Series C Preferred Units accrue and are cumulative from the date of original issue and payable semi-annually in arrears on the 15th day of June and December of each year through and including December 15, 2022 and, thereafter, quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of March, June, September and December of each year, in each case, if and when declared by ENLK’s general partner out of legally available funds for such purpose. The initial distribution rate for the Series C Preferred Units from and including the date of original issue to, but not including, December 15, 2022 is 6.0% per annum. On and after December 15, 2022, distributions on the Series C Preferred Units will accumulate for each distribution period at a percentage of the $1,000 liquidation preference per unit equal to an annual floating rate of the three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 4.11%.

If distributions are declared by ENLK’s Board of Directors, cash distributions for the Series B Preferred Units and the Series C Preferred Units will decrease our cash flows from financing activities beginning in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Capital Requirements. We consider a number of factors in determining whether our capital expenditures are growth capital expenditures or maintenancemake capital expenditures.

Growth capital expenditures generally include capital expenditures made for acquisitions or capital improvements that we expect will increase our asset base, operating income, or operating capacity over

the long-term. Examples of growth capital expenditures include the acquisition of assets and the construction or development of additional pipeline, storage, well connections, gathering, or processing assets, in each case, to the extent such capital expenditures are expected to expand our asset base, operating capacity, or our operating income.

Maintenance capital expenditures include capital expenditures made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets in order to maintain the existing operating capacity of the assets and to extend their useful lives. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures are expenditures to refurbish and replace pipelines, gathering assets, well connections, compression assets, and processing assets up to their original operating capacity, or to maintain pipeline and equipment reliability, integrity, and safety, and to address environmental laws and regulations.


We expectThe GAAP measure most directly comparable to free cash flow after distributions is net cash provided by operating activities. Free cash flow after distributions should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), operating income (loss), net cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow after distributions has important limitations because it excludes some items that affect net income (loss), operating income (loss), and net cash provided by operating activities. Free cash flow after distributions may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate this non-GAAP metric in the same manner. To compensate for these limitations, we believe that it is important to consider net cash provided by operating activities determined under GAAP, as well as free cash flow after distributions, to evaluate our remaining 2017overall liquidity.

Adjusted gross margin in the Permian segment increased $54.7 million, which was primarily driven by:

A $50.9 million increase to adjusted gross margin associated with our Permian gas assets. Adjusted gross margin, excluding derivative activity, increased $50.8 million, which was primarily due to higher volumes from increased producer activity and higher commodity prices. Derivative activity associated with our Permian gas assets increased margin by $0.1 million, which included $7.7 million from decreased realized losses and $7.6 million from decreased unrealized gains.
A $3.8 million increase to adjusted gross margin associated with our Permian crude assets. Adjusted gross margin, excluding derivative activity, increased $1.7 million, which was primarily due to higher commodity prices. Derivative activity associated with our Permian crude assets increased margin by $2.1 million, which included $2.3 million from increased realized gains and $0.2 million from increased unrealized losses.

Operating expenses in the Permian segment increased $12.4 million due to higher construction fees and services, labor and benefits costs, materials and supplies expense, utility costs, and compressor rentals due to an increase in operating activity and the transfer of equipment to the Phantom processing facilities in 2022.

Nine Months Ended
September 30,
20222021
Operating cash flows before working capital$825.4 $559.5 
Changes in working capital0.5 39.7 

Operating cash flows before changes in working capital increased $265.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The primary contributor to the increase in operating cash flows was as follows:

Gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, non-cash commodity swap activity, utility credits redeemed or earned, and unit-based compensation, increased $273.7 million. The increase in gross margin is due to a $335.0 million increase in adjusted gross margin, excluding non-cash commodity swap activity, which was partially offset by a $61.3 million increase in operating expenses, excluding utility credits redeemed or earned and unit-based compensation. For more information regarding the changes in gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, see “Results of Operations.”

The changes in working capital for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were primarily due to fluctuations in trade receivable and payable balances due to timing of collection and payments, changes in inventory balances attributable to normal operating fluctuations, and fluctuations in accrued revenue and accrued cost of sales.

Our primary remaining capital projects for 2022 include the relocation of the Phantom processing plant, which was completed in October 2022, CCS-related initiatives, contributions to unconsolidated affiliate investments, continued development of our existing systems through well connects, and other low-cost development projects. We expect to fund our maintenanceremaining 2022 capital expendituresrequirements from operating cash flows. In 2017 and 2018, it

It is possible that not all of theour planned projects will be commenced or completed. Our ability to pay distributions to our unitholders, to fund planned capital expenditures, and to make acquisitions will depend upon our future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in the industry, financial, business, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.

(2)The AR Facility will terminate on August 1, 2025, unless extended or earlier terminated in accordance with its terms.
(3)The estimated fair value of the Amarillo Rattler Acquisition contingent consideration was calculated in accordance with the fair value guidance contained in ASC 820. There are a number of assumptions and estimates factored into these fair values and actual contingent consideration payments could differ from these estimated fair values. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 13” for additional information.

The above table does not include any physical or financial contract purchase commitments for natural gas and NGLs due to the nature of both the price and volume components of such purchases, which vary on a daily or monthly basis. Additionally, we do not have contractual commitments for fixed price and/or fixed quantities of any material amount.amount that is not already disclosed in the table above.


The interest payable underrelated to the ENLKRevolving Credit Facility and ENLC credit facilitiesthe AR Facility are not reflected in the above table because such amounts depend on the outstanding balances and interest rates of the Revolving Credit Facility and the AR Facility, which vary from time to time. However, given the same borrowing amount and rates in effect on September 30, 2017, the cash obligation for interest expense on the ENLC credit facility would be approximately $2.4 million per year, respectively, or approximately $0.6 million for the remainder of 2017.


In January 2017, we paid the $250.0 million installment payable obligation related to the EnLink Oklahoma T.O. acquisition, which was due on January 7, 2017. We funded this installment payment using various sources, including $84.6 million in proceeds received from the sale of NTPL, proceeds from equity issuances through the 2014 EDA and borrowings under the ENLK Credit Facility. Our contractual cash obligations for the remainder of 2017 and 20182022 are expected to be funded from cash flows generated from our operations.

As of September 30, 2022, the AR Facility had a borrowing base of $500.0 million and there were $500.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the AR Facility.

In addition, as of September 30, 2022, we have $4.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of outstanding unsecured senior notes maturing from 2024 to 2047. There were $70.0 million in outstanding borrowings and $46.6 million in outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2022.

Guarantees. The amounts outstanding on our senior unsecured notes and the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed in full by our subsidiary ENLK, including 105% of any letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. ENLK’s guarantees of these amounts are full, irrevocable, unconditional, and absolute, and cover all payment obligations arising under the senior unsecured notes and the Revolving Credit Facility. Liabilities under the guarantees rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of ENLK.

ENLC’s assets consist of all of the outstanding common units of ENLK and all of the membership interests of the General Partner. Other than these equity interests, all of our assets and operations withare held by our non-guarantor operating subsidiaries. ENLK, directly and indirectly, owns all of these non-guarantor operating subsidiaries, which in some cases are joint ventures that are partially owned by a third party. As a result, the exceptionassets, liabilities, and results of ENLK’s $250.0 million installment payable obligation due January 7, 2018operations of ENLK are not materially different than the corresponding amounts presented in our consolidated financial statements.

As of September 30, 2022, ENLC records, on a stand-alone basis, transactions that do not occur at ENLK, which are primarily related to the acquisitiontaxation of ENLC and the EnLink Oklahoma T.O. assets. We expect to fund paymentelimination of this installment obligation from the proceeds of borrowings under ENLK’s credit facility, proceeds from the issuance of equity or both of these alternatives.intercompany borrowings.

Inflation

The annual U.S. inflation rate has increased significantly in the first three quarters of 2022. The Federal Reserve has already increased its target for the federal funds rate (the benchmark for most interest rates) several times this year. It is widely expected that this trend will continue for the remainder of 2022. Inflation will increase the cost to acquire or replace property and equipment and the cost of labor and supplies. To the extent permitted by competition, regulation, and our existing agreements, we have and will continue to pass along increased costs to our customers in the form of higher fees. Additionally, certain of our revenue generating contracts contain clauses that increase our fees based on changes in inflation metrics.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. Our primary market risk is the risk related to changes in the prices of natural gas, NGLs, condensate, and crude oil. In addition, we are also exposed to the risk of changes in interest rates on floating rate debt.


Comprehensive financial reform legislation was signed into law by the President on July 21, 2010. The legislation calls for the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”)CFTC to regulate certain markets for derivative products, including over-the-counter (“OTC”)OTC derivatives. The CFTC has issued several new relevant regulations, and other rulemakings are pending at the CFTC, the product of which would be rules that mandate that certainimplement the mandates in the legislation to cause significant portions of derivatives products be subjectmarkets to margin requirements, cleared at a clearinghouse or executed on an exchange.clear through clearinghouses. While some of these rules have been finalized, some have not, and, as a result, the final form and timing of the implementation of the new regulatory regime affecting commodity derivatives remains uncertain.


In particular, on October 18, 2011, the CFTC adopted final rules under the Dodd-Frank Act establishing position limits for certain energy commodity futures and options contracts and economically equivalent swaps, futures and options. The CFTC’s original position limits rule was challenged in court by two industry associations and was vacated and remanded by a federal district court. The CFTC has withdrawn its appeal of the court order vacating the original position limits rule. However, in November 2013, the CFTC proposed new rules that would place limits on positions in certain core futures and equivalent swaps contracts for or linked to certain physical commodities, subject to exceptions for certain bona fide hedging transactions. In December 2016, the CFTC modified and reproposed its positions limits rules. The CFTC has sought comment on the position limits rule as reproposed, but these new position limit rules are not yet final and the impact of those provisions on us is uncertain at this time.

The legislation and potential new regulations may also require counterparties to our derivative instruments to spin off or result in such counterparties spinning off some of their derivativesderivative activities to separate entities, which may not be as creditworthy as the current counterparties. The new legislation and any future new regulations could significantly increase the cost of derivative contracts, materially alter the terms of derivative contracts, reduce the availability of derivatives to protect against risks we encounter, reduce our ability to monetize or restructure our existing derivative contracts, and increase our exposure to less creditworthy counterparties. If we reduce our use of derivatives as a result of the legislation and regulations, our results of operations may become more volatile and our cash flows may be less predictable, which could adversely affect our ability to plan for and fund capital expenditures and to generate sufficient cash flow to pay quarterly distributions at current levels or at all. Our revenues could be adversely affected if a consequence of the legislation and regulations is to lower commodity prices. Any of these consequences could have a material, adverse effect on us, our financial condition, and our results of operations.

Commodity Price Risk


We are also subject to significantdirect risks due to fluctuations in commodity prices. While approximately 90% of our adjusted gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was generated from arrangements with fee-based structures with minimal direct commodity price exposure, the remainder is subject to more direct commodity price exposure. Our exposure to these riskscommodity price fluctuations is primarily in the gas processing component of our business. We currently process gasearn adjusted gross margin under four main types of contractual arrangements (or a combination of these types of contractual arrangements) as summarized below. Approximately 86%

1.Fee-based contracts. Under fee-based contracts, we earn our fees through (1) stated fixed-fee arrangements in which we are paid a fixed fee per unit of our processing margins werevolume or (2) arrangements where we purchase and resell commodities in connection with providing the related service and earn a net margin through a fee-like deduction subtracted from fixed-fee basedthe purchase price of the commodities.

2.Processing margin contracts. Under these contracts, we pay the producer for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

1.
Processing margin contracts: Under these contracts, we pay the producer for the full amount of inlet gas to the plant, and we make a margin based on the difference between the value of liquids recovered from the processed natural gas to the plant, and we make a margin based on the difference between the value of liquids recovered from the processed natural gas

as compared to the value of the natural gas volumes lost and the cost of fuel used in processing. The shrink and fuel losses are referred to as plant thermal reduction, or PTR. Our margins from these contracts are high during periods of high liquids prices relative to natural gas prices and can be negative during periods of high natural gas prices relative to liquids prices. However, we mitigate our risk of processing natural gas when margins are negative primarily through our ability to bypass processing when it is not profitable for us or by contracts that revert to a minimum fee for processing if the natural gas must be processed to meet pipeline quality specifications. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, less than 1% of our adjusted gross margin was generated from processing margin contracts.

2.
Percent of liquids contracts: Under these contracts, we receive a fee in the form of a percentage of the liquids recovered, and the producer bears all the cost of the natural gas shrink. Therefore, our margins from these contracts are greater during periods of high liquids prices. Our margins from processing cannot become negative under percent of liquids contracts, but they do decline during periods of low liquids prices.

3.
Percent of proceeds contracts: Under these contracts, we receive a fee as a portion of the proceeds of the sale of natural gas and liquids. Therefore, our margins from these contracts are greater during periods of high natural gas and liquids prices. Our margins from processing cannot become negative under percent of proceeds contracts, but they do decline during periods of low natural gas and liquids prices.

4.
Fixed-fee based contracts: Under these contracts, we have no direct commodity price exposure and are paid a fixed fee per unit of volume that is processed.

3.POL contracts. Under these contracts, we receive a fee in the form of a percentage of the liquids recovered, and the producer bears all the cost of the natural gas shrink. Therefore, our margins from these contracts are greater during periods of high liquids prices. Our margins from processing cannot become negative under POL contracts, but they do decline during periods of low liquids prices.

4.POP contracts. Under these contracts, we receive a fee in the form of a portion of the proceeds of the sale of natural gas and liquids. Therefore, our margins from these contracts are greater during periods of high natural gas and liquids prices. Our margins from processing cannot become negative under POP contracts, but they do decline during periods of low natural gas and liquids prices.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, approximately 10% of our adjusted gross margin was generated from POL or POP contracts.

Our primary commodity risk management objective is to reduce volatility in our cash flows. We maintain a risk management committee, including members of senior management, which oversees all hedging activity. We enter into hedges for natural gas, crude and condensate, and NGLs using over-the-counterOTC derivative financial instruments with only certain well-capitalized counterparties thatwhich have been approved byin accordance with our commodity risk management committee.policy.
 
We have hedged our exposure to fluctuations in prices for natural gas, NGLs, and NGLcrude oil volumes produced for our account. We hedge our exposure based on volumes we consider hedgeable (volumes committed under contracts that are long term in nature) versus total volumes that include volumes that may fluctuate due to contractual terms, such as contracts with month-to-month processing options. Further, we have tailored our hedges to generally match the NGL product composition and the NGL and natural gas delivery points to those of our physical equity volumes. The NGL hedges cover specific NGL products based upon our expected equity NGL composition.


60

We manage our exposure to changes in commodity prices by hedging the impact of market fluctuations. Commodity swaps are used both to manage and hedge price and location risk related to these market exposures and to manage margins on offsetting fixed-price purchase or sale commitments for physical quantities of NGLs, natural gas, and crude and condensate. The following table presents the relevant pricing index for each commodity:

The following table sets forth certain information related to derivative instruments outstanding at September 30, 2017 mitigating the risks associated with the gas processing and fractionation components of our business. The relevant payment index price for liquids is the monthly average of the daily closing price for deliveries of commodities into Mont Belvieu, Texas as reported by OPIS. The relevant index price for natural gas is Henry Hub Gas Daily, as defined by the pricing dates in the swap contracts.

____________________________
(1)Weighted average.

Another price risk we face is the risk of mismatching volumes of gas bought or sold on a monthly price versus volumes bought or sold on a daily price. We enter each month with a balanced book of natural gas bought and sold on the same basis. However, it is normal to experience fluctuations in the volumes of natural gas bought or sold under either basis, which leaves us with short or long positions that must be covered. We use financial swaps to mitigate the exposure at the time it is created to maintain a balanced position.
 

The use of financial instruments may expose us to the risk of financial loss in certain circumstances, including instances when (1) sales volumes are less than expected requiring market purchases to meet commitments or (2) counterparties fail to purchase the contracted quantities of natural gas or otherwise fail to perform. To the extent that we engage in hedging activities, we may be prevented from realizing the benefits of favorable price changes in the physical market. However, we are similarly insulated against unfavorable changes in such prices.
 
As of September 30, 2017,2022, outstanding natural gas swap agreements, NGL swap agreements, swing swap agreements, storage swap agreements, and other derivative instruments werehad a net fair value liabilityasset of $2.5$23.9 million. The aggregate effect of a hypothetical 10% change, increase or decrease, in gas, crude and condensate, and NGL prices would result in a change of approximately $1.7$15.0 million in the net fair value of these contracts as of September 30, 2017.2022.

Interest Rate Risk


We are exposed to interest rate risk fromon the ENLCRevolving Credit Facility and the ENLKAR Facility. Amounts drawn on the Revolving Credit Facility.Facility and the AR Facility bear interest at rates based on SOFR. At September 30, 2017, the ENLC Credit Facility2022, we had $74.0$70.0 million in outstanding borrowings andunder the ENLKRevolving Credit Facility had noand $500.0 million in outstanding borrowings.borrowings under the AR Facility. A 1%1.0% increase or decrease in interest rates would change the annualour annualized interest expense for the ENLC Credit Facility by approximately $0.7 million and $5.0 million for the year.Revolving Credit Facility and AR Facility, respectively.


We are not exposed to changes in interest rates with respect to ENLK’s senior unsecured notes due in 2019, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2044, 2045, or 2047 or our senior unsecured notes due in 2028, 2029, and 2030 as these are fixed-rate obligations. TheAs of September 30, 2022, the estimated fair value of ENLK’sthe senior unsecured notes was approximately $3,564.7$3,502.5 million, as of September 30, 2017, based on the market prices of similarENLK’s and our publicly traded debt at September 30, 2017.2022. Market risk is estimated as the potential decrease in fair value of our long-term debt resulting from a hypothetical increase of 1%1.0% in interest rates. Such an increase in interest rates would result in an approximate $291.7$209.8 million decrease in fair value of ENLK’sthe senior unsecured notes at September 30, 2017.2022. See “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6” for more information on our outstanding indebtedness.


Beginning on December 15, 2022, distributions on ENLK's Series C Preferred Units will be based on a floating rate tied to LIBOR (or an alternative rate to be established) plus 4.11% rather than a fixed rate and, therefore, the amount paid by ENLK as a distribution will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings


We are involved in various litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, any liabilities that may result from these claims would not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

For a discussion of certain litigation and similar proceedings, see “Item 1.please refer to Note 16, “Commitments and Contingencies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 15.”Statements contained in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of weather-related risks. These weather conditions can cause significant damageEquity Securities and disruption to our operations and adversely impact our financial condition, resultsUse of operations or cash flows.Proceeds

Virtually all of our operations are exposed to potential natural disasters, including hurricanes, tornadoes, storms, floods, fires and earthquakes. In particular, south Louisiana andDuring the Gulf of Mexico experience hurricanes and other extreme weather conditions on a frequent basis. The location of our significant assets and concentration of activity in these regions make us particularly vulnerable to weather risks in these areas.
High winds, storm surge, flooding and other natural disasters can cause significant damage and curtail our operations for extended periods during and after such weather conditions, which may result in decreased revenues and otherwise adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. These interruptions could involve significant damage to people, property or the environment, and repair time and costs could be extensive. Any such event that interrupts the revenues generated by our operations, or which causes us to make significant expenditures not covered by insurance, could reduce our cash available for paying distributions to our members and, accordingly, adversely affect our financial condition and the market price of our securities.
In addition,three months ended September 30, 2022, we rely on the volumes of natural gas, crude oil, condensate and NGLs gathered, processed, fractionated and transported on our assets. These volumes are influenced by the productionre-acquired ENLC common units from the regions that supply our systems. Adverse weather conditions can cause direct or indirect disruptions to the operations of, and otherwise negatively affect, producers, suppliers, customers and other third parties to which our assets are connected, even if our assets are not damaged. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
We may also suffer reputational damage as a result of a natural disaster or other similar event. The occurrence of such an event, or a series of such events, especially if one or more of them occurs in a highly populated or sensitive area, could negatively impact public perception of our operations and/or make it more difficult for us to obtain the approvals, permits, licenses or real property interests we needcertain employees in order to operatesatisfy the employees’ tax liability in connection with the vesting of restricted incentive units and we repurchased common units in open market transactions and from GIP in connection with our assetscommon unit repurchase program.
