CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Targa Resources Corp.’s (together with its subsidiaries, including Targa Resources Partners LP (the “Partnership”), “we,” “us,” “our,” “Targa,” “TRGP,” or the “Company”) reports, filings and other public announcements may from time to time contain statements that do not directly or exclusively relate to historical facts. Such statements are “forward-looking statements.” You can typically identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by the use of forward-looking statements, such as “may,” “could,” “project,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “potential,” “plan,” “forecast” and other similar words.

All statements that are not statements of historical facts, including statements regarding our future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements reflect our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside our control. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements include known and unknown risks. Known risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following risks and uncertainties:

•

the level and success of crude oil and natural gas drilling around our assets, our success in connecting natural gas supplies to our gathering and processing systems, oil supplies to our gathering systems and natural gas liquid supplies to our logistics and transportation facilities and our success in connecting our facilities to transportation services and markets;

•

the timing and extent of changes in natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil and other commodity prices, interest rates and demand for our services;

•

our ability to access the capital markets, which will depend on general market conditions, our credit ratings and debt obligations, and demand for our common equity, senior notes and commercial paper;

•

the impact of outbreaks of illnesses, pandemics or any other public health crises;

•

commodity price volatility due to ongoing or new global conflicts;

•

actions by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and non-OPEC oil producing countries;

•

the timing and success of business development efforts;

•

the amount of collateral required to be posted from time to time in our transactions;

•

our success in risk management activities, including the use of derivative instruments to hedge commodity price risks;

•

the level of creditworthiness of counterparties to various transactions with us;

•

changes in laws and regulations, particularly with regard to taxes, safety and protection of the environment;

•

weather and other natural phenomena, and related impacts;

•

industry changes, including the impact of consolidations and changes in competition;

•

our ability to timely obtain and maintain necessary licenses, permits and other approvals;

•

our ability to grow through internal growth capital projects or acquisitions and the successful integration and future performance of such assets;

•

general economic, market and business conditions; and

•

the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“Annual Report”) and our reports and registration statements filed from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and, therefore, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 (“Quarterly Report”) will prove to be accurate. Some of these and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements are more fully described in our Annual Report. Except as may be required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or advise of any change in any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Except as noted within the context of each footnote disclosure, the dollar amounts presented in the tabular data within these footnote disclosures are stated in millions of dollars.

Note 1 — Organization and Operations

Our Organization

Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) is a publicly traded Delaware corporation formed in October 2005. Targa is a leading provider of midstream services and is one of the largest independent infrastructure companies in North America. We own, operate, acquire, and develop a diversified portfolio of complementary domestic midstream infrastructure assets.

In this Quarterly Report, unless the context requires otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company,” “Targa” or “TRGP” are intended to mean our consolidated business and operations. TRGP controls the general partner of and owns all of the outstanding common units representing limited partner interests in Targa Resources Partners LP, referred to herein as the “Partnership”. Targa consolidated the Partnership and its subsidiaries under GAAP, and prepared accompanying consolidated financial statements under the rules and regulations of the SEC. Targa’s consolidated financial statements include differences from the consolidated financial statements of the Partnership. The most noteworthy differences are:

•

the inclusion of the TRGP senior revolving credit facility and term loan facility;

•

the inclusion of the TRGP senior notes;

•

the inclusion of the TRGP commercial paper notes;

•

the inclusion of Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”); and

•

the impacts of TRGP’s treatment as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Our Operations

The Company is primarily engaged in the business of:

•

gathering, compressing, treating, processing, transporting, and purchasing and selling natural gas;

•

transporting, storing, fractionating, treating, and purchasing and selling NGLs and NGL products, including services to LPG exporters; and

•

gathering, storing, terminaling, and purchasing and selling crude oil.

See Note 18 – Segment Information for certain financial information regarding our business segments.

Note 2 — Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP. Therefore, this information should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature and considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods reported. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 3 – Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report. Other than the updates noted below, there were no significant updates or revisions to our accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Supplier Finance Programs

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50). Amendments in this update require annual and interim disclosure of the key terms of outstanding supplier finance programs and a rollforward of the related obligations. These amendments do not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of the supplier finance program obligations. These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, except for the rollforward requirements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect of these amendments on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Contract Assets and Liabilities Acquired in a Business Combination

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. Amendments in this update require application of Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606") to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. These amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. However, an entity that elects to early adopt must apply the amendments to all business combinations that occurred during the fiscal year that includes the interim period. We early adopted the amendments on April 1, 2022 and have applied them to business combinations in 2022 and thereafter. We applied the amendments to the Delaware Basin Acquisition, as defined in Note 4 – Joint Ventures, Acquisitions and Divestitures, by recognizing contract liabilities from contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606.

Note 4 – Joint Ventures, Acquisitions and Divestitures

DevCo Joint Ventures

In February 2018, we formed three development joint ventures (“DevCo JVs”) with investment vehicles affiliated with Stonepeak Infrastructure Partners (“Stonepeak”) to fund portions of Grand Prix NGL Pipeline (“Grand Prix”), Gulf Coast Express Pipeline (“GCX”) and an approximately 110 MBbl/d fractionator in Mont Belvieu, Texas (“Train 6”). For a four-year period beginning on the date that all three projects commenced commercial operations, we had the option to acquire all or part of Stonepeak’s interests in the DevCo JVs (the “DevCo JV Call Right”). The purchase price payable for such partial or full interests was based on a predetermined fixed return or multiple on invested capital, including distributions received by Stonepeak from the DevCo JVs.

In January 2022, we exercised the DevCo JV Call Right and closed on the purchase of all of Stonepeak’s interests in the DevCo JVs for $926.3 million (the “DevCo JV Repurchase”). Following the DevCo JV Repurchase, we own a 75% interest in Grand Prix Pipeline LLC, a 100% interest in Train 6 and owned a 25% equity interest in GCX, prior to the GCX Sale (as defined below) in February 2022. The change in our ownership interests was accounted for as an equity transaction representing the acquisition of noncontrolling interests. The amount of the redemption price in excess of the carrying amount, net of tax was $53.1 million, which was accounted for as a premium on repurchase of noncontrolling interests, and resulted in a reduction to Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders. In addition, the DevCo JV Repurchase resulted in an $857.9 million reduction of Noncontrolling interests on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Acquisitions

South Texas Acquisition

In April 2022, we completed the acquisition of Southcross Energy Operating LLC and its subsidiaries (“Southcross”) for a purchase price of $201.9 million (the “South Texas Acquisition”), subject to customary closing adjustments. We expect to make a final closing adjustment payment of approximately $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. We acquired a portfolio of complementary midstream infrastructure assets and associated contracts that have been integrated into our SouthTX Gathering and Processing operations, including the remaining interests in the two operated joint ventures in South Texas that we previously held as investments in unconsolidated affiliates and have been prospectively consolidated beginning in the second quarter of 2022. We accounted for the purchase as an asset acquisition and have capitalized $1.8 million of acquisition-related costs and assumed liabilities of $1.8 million as components of the cost of assets acquired. We allocated $28.1 million to our purchase of Southcross’ interest in the two operated joint ventures for purposes of consolidation and $169.7 million, $3.9 million and $5.3 million of the residual cost to property, plant and equipment, current assets and liabilities, net and other non-current assets, respectively.

Delaware Basin Acquisition

On July 29, 2022, we completed the acquisition of all of the interests in Lucid Energy Delaware, LLC (“Lucid”) from Riverstone Holdings LLC and Goldman Sachs Asset Management for approximately $3.5 billion in cash (the “Delaware Basin Acquisition”), subject to customary closing adjustments. We funded the acquisition with (i) $1.5 billion in proceeds drawn under our Term Loan Agreement with Mizuho Bank, Ltd. (“Mizuho”) as the Administrative Agent and a lender, and other lenders party thereto (the “Term Loan Facility”), (ii) $750.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 5.200% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “5.200% Notes”) and $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.250% Senior Notes due 2052 (the “6.250% Notes”) pursuant to an underwritten public offering that closed in July 2022 and (iii) $800.0 million drawn on our $2.75 billion TRGP revolving credit facility (the “TRGP Revolver”). We recorded $16.9 million of debt issuance costs related to the Term Loan Facility, the 5.200% Notes and the 6.250% Notes in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 7 – Debt Obligations for further details on our financing activities.

The assets acquired in the Delaware Basin Acquisition provide natural gas gathering, treating, and processing services in the Delaware Basin, through owning and operating approximately 1,050 miles of natural gas pipelines and approximately 1.4 billion cubic feet per day (“Bcf/d”) of cryogenic natural gas processing capacity primarily in Eddy and Lea counties of New Mexico. The Delaware Basin Acquisition assets increase our footprint in the Delaware Basin and are integrated into our Permian Delaware operations.

The Delaware Basin Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires, among other things, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their fair value on the acquisition date. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price, which is subject to certain adjustments, was based upon preliminary valuations from estimates and assumptions that management believes are reasonable; however, management’s estimates and assumptions are subject to change upon the completion of the final valuations or as information necessary to complete the fair value analysis is obtained. The valuation of the acquired assets and liabilities was prepared using fair value methods and assumptions, including projections of future production volumes, commodity prices, and other cash flows, market-participant assumptions (e.g., discount rate and exit multiple), expectations regarding customer contracts and relationships, tangible asset replacement costs, and other management estimates. The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs, as defined in Note 13 – Fair Value Measurements. These inputs require judgments and estimates at the time of valuation. We are in the process of finalizing valuations related to property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangible assets. The final valuation will be completed no later than one year from the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in millions):


Cash and cash equivalents	$	9.9
Trade receivables, net of allowances (1)		210.2
Other current assets		6.5
Property, plant and equipment, net		1,678.8
Intangible assets, net		1,881.6
Other long-term assets		57.3
Current liabilities		(237.3	)
Other long-term liabilities		(100.8	)
Purchase price	$	3,506.2

(1)

The fair value of the assets acquired includes trade receivables of $210.2 million. The gross amount due under contract was $212.9 million, of which $2.7 million was expected to be uncollectible. Trade receivables, net of allowances, excludes $18.5 million that was due from Targa. We reflected this settlement of a preexisting relationship as a reduction of the purchase price in accordance with ASC 805.

The preliminary value of property, plant and equipment is determined using the cost approach and is primarily comprised of Gathering and Processing assets that will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over an estimated weighted-average useful life of 20 years. The associated useful lives of property, plant and equipment were based on the period over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to our future cash flows.

The preliminary value of intangible assets is comprised of customer relationships, which represent estimated value of long-term contracts with customers, that will be amortized in a manner that closely resembles the expected benefit pattern of the intangible assets over an estimated useful life of 14 years. The associated useful lives of intangible assets were based on the period over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to our future cash flows.

The results of operations attributable to the assets and liabilities acquired in the Delaware Basin Acquisition have been included in our consolidated financial statements as part of our Permian Delaware operations in our Gathering and Processing segment since the date of the acquisition. Revenue and Net Income attributable to the assets acquired for the period August 1, 2022 through September 30, 2022 were $104.0 million and $4.7 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, we had incurred $14.3 million of acquisition-related costs.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 as if the Delaware Basin Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2021. The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of our results of operations that would have occurred had the transaction been consummated at the beginning of the period presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future results.


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Revenues	$	5,391.1	$	4,595.2	$	16,604.0	$	11,869.4
Net income (loss)		288.2		242.4		1,087.9		514.9

The summarized unaudited pro forma information has been calculated after applying our accounting policies and reflects adjustments for the following:

•

Reflects depreciation and amortization based on the preliminary fair values of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, respectively. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated utilizing a straight-line approach. Intangible assets are amortized in a manner that closely resembles their expected benefit pattern;

•

Excludes $14.3 million of acquisition-related costs incurred as of September 30, 2022 from pro forma net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Pro forma net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was adjusted to include those costs;

•

Excludes the impact of operations previously sold by Lucid, prior to Targa’s acquisition of Lucid;

•

Excludes the impact of historical activity between Targa and Lucid, prior to Targa’s acquisition of Lucid;

•

Excludes general and administrative expense related to Lucid’s former parent company, which Targa did not acquire;

•

Excludes amortization of interest expense and debt issuance costs associated with Lucid’s debt, which was not assumed by Targa;

•

Includes interest expense and debt issuance cost amortization associated with Targa’s borrowings to finance the Delaware Basin Acquisition; and

•

Reflects the income tax effects of the above pro forma adjustments.

Divestitures

In May 2022, we completed the sale of Targa GCX Pipeline LLC to a third party for $857.0 million (the “GCX Sale”). As a result of the GCX Sale, we recognized a gain of $435.9 million in Gain (loss) from sale of equity method investment in our Consolidated Statements of Operations in the second quarter of 2022.

See Note 6 – Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates for further discussion on South Texas Acquisition and GCX Sale.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, depreciation expense was $206.5 million and $629.5 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, depreciation expense was $190.2 million and $552.7 million, respectively.

Impairments of Long-Lived Assets

We review and evaluate our long-lived assets, including intangible assets, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable, including changes to our estimates that could have an impact on our assessment of asset recoverability. There were no impairments of long-lived assets recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of customer relationships acquired in the Delaware Basin Acquisition, and customer contracts and customer relationships acquired in prior business combinations. The fair values of these acquired intangible assets were determined at the date of acquisition based on the present values of estimated future cash flows. Amortization expense attributable to these assets is recorded over the periods in which we benefit from services provided to customers.

The estimated annual amortization expense for intangible assets is approximately $243.8 million, $388.4 million, $376.3 million, $334.1 million and $283.9 million for each of the years 2022 through 2026, respectively.

The changes in our intangible assets are as follows:


	September 30, 2022
Balance at December 31, 2021	$	1,094.8
Additions from Delaware Basin Acquisition		1,881.6
Amortization		(136.7	)
Balance at September 30, 2022	$	2,839.7

Note 6 – Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

As of September 30, 2022, our investments in unconsolidated affiliates consist of the following:

Gathering and Processing Segment

•

a 50% operated ownership interest in Little Missouri 4 LLC (“Little Missouri 4”).

Logistics and Transportation Segment

•

a 38.8% operated ownership interest in Gulf Coast Fractionators (“GCF”); and

•

a 50% operated ownership interest in Cayenne Pipeline LLC (“Cayenne”).

The terms of these joint venture agreements do not afford us the degree of control required for consolidating them in our consolidated financial statements, but do afford us the significant influence required to employ the equity method of accounting.

In April 2022, we completed the South Texas Acquisition for $201.9 million, subject to customary closing adjustments. We expect to make a final closing adjustment payment of approximately $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Prior to closing the South Texas Acquisition, we had two operated joint ventures in South Texas: a 75% interest in T2 LaSalle Gathering Company L.L.C. (“T2 LaSalle”) and a 50% interest in T2 Eagle Ford Gathering Company L.L.C. (“T2 Eagle Ford” and, together with T2 Lasalle, the “T2 Joint Ventures”). Following the closing of the South Texas Acquisition, we own 100% of the interest in the T2 Joint Ventures.

In May 2022, we completed the GCX Sale for $857.0 million. Prior to the GCX Sale, we owned a 25% non-operated ownership interest in GCX. Following the announcement of the GCX Sale in February 2022, we ceased recognizing equity earnings (loss) due to the terms of the sales agreement. As a result of the GCX Sale, we recognized a gain of $435.9 million in Gain (loss) from sale of equity method investment in our Consolidated Statements of Operations in the second quarter of 2022.

See Note 4 – Joint Ventures, Acquisitions and Divestitures for further discussion of the T2 Joint Ventures and GCX.

The following table shows the activity related to our investments in unconsolidated affiliates:


	Balance at December 31, 2021		Equity Earnings (Loss)			Cash Distributions			Disposition/ Consolidation			Contributions		Balance at September 30, 2022
GCX	$	421.0	$	5.7		$	(14.3	)	$	(412.4	)	$	—	$	—

In September 2022, the Partnership amended the Securitization Facility to, among other things, increase the facility size from $400.0 million to $800.0 million and extend the facility termination date to September 1, 2023. As of September 30, 2022, the Partnership had $750.0 million of qualifying receivables under its $800.0 million accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization Facility”), resulting in $50.0 million of availability.

(2)

In February 2022, we entered into the TRGP Revolver which matures in February 2027, and terminated our previous TRGP senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Previous TRGP Revolver”) and the Partnership’s senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Partnership Revolver”). In July 2022, we established an unsecured commercial paper note program (the “Commercial Paper Program”), the borrowings of which are supported through maintaining a minimum available borrowing capacity under our TRGP Revolver equal to the aggregate amount outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program. As of September 30, 2022, the TRGP Revolver had $550.0 million borrowings outstanding and the Commercial Paper Program had $632.0 million borrowings outstanding, resulting in approximately $1.5 billion of available liquidity, after accounting for outstanding letters of credit. As of December 31, 2021, we had no balance outstanding under the Previous TRGP Revolver or the Partnership Revolver.

(3)

As of February 2022, we guarantee all of the Partnership’s outstanding senior unsecured notes.

(4)

In April 2022, the Partnership redeemed all of the outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “5.875% Notes”).

(5)

In March 2022, the Partnership redeemed all of the outstanding 5.375% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “5.375% Notes”) with the available liquidity under the TRGP Revolver.

The following table shows the range of interest rates and weighted average interest rate incurred on our variable-rate debt obligations during the nine months ended September 30, 2022:


	Range of Interest Rates Incurred	Weighted Average Interest Rate Incurred
TRGP Revolver and Commercial Paper Program	1.5% - 4.7%	2.9%
Securitization Facility	1.1% - 3.8%	2.0%
Term Loan Facility	4.1% - 4.1%	4.1%

Compliance with Debt Covenants

As of September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in our various debt agreements.

In February 2022, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a parent guarantee whereby each party to the agreement unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, the payment of all of the obligations of the Partnership and Targa Resources Partners Finance Corporation (together with the Partnership, the “Partnership Issuers”) under the respective indentures governing the Partnership Issuers’ senior unsecured notes. As of September 30, 2022, $5.0 billion of the Partnership Issuers’ senior unsecured notes was outstanding.

Debt Obligations

Partnership’s Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility

In April 2022, the Partnership amended the Securitization Facility to, among other things, extend the facility termination date to April 19, 2023 and replace the LIBOR-based interest rate option with SOFR-based interest rate options, including term SOFR and daily simple SOFR. In September 2022, the Partnership amended the Securitization Facility to, among other things, increase the facility size from $400.0 million to $800.0 million and extend the facility termination date to September 1, 2023.

TRGP Revolver

In February 2022, we entered into the TRGP Revolver with Bank of America, N.A., as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Swing Line Lender, and the other lenders party thereto. The TRGP Revolver provides for a revolving credit facility in an initial aggregate principal amount up to $2.75 billion (with an option to increase such maximum aggregate principal amount by up to $500.0 million in the future, subject to the terms of the TRGP Revolver), including a swing line sub-facility of up to $100.0 million. The TRGP Revolver matures on February 17, 2027. In connection with our entry into the TRGP Revolver, we terminated the Previous TRGP Revolver and the Partnership Revolver. In February 2022, TRGP and the Partnership received a corporate investment grade credit rating from Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings Inc., and in March 2022, the Partnership received a corporate investment grade credit rating from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”). As a result, in accordance with the TRGP Revolver, the collateral under the TRGP Revolver was released from the liens securing our obligations thereunder. As a result of the termination of the Previous TRGP Revolver and the Partnership Revolver, we recorded a loss due to debt extinguishment of $0.8 million.

Term Loan Facility

In July 2022, we entered into the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility provides for a three-year, $1.5 billion unsecured term loan facility. The Term Loan Facility matures in July 2025. We used the proceeds from the Term Loan Facility to fund a portion of the Delaware Basin Acquisition.

The Term Loan Facility bears interest at the Company’s option at: (a) the Base Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Facility), which is the highest of the (i) federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (ii) Mizuho’s prime rate, and (iii) the Term SOFR (as defined in the Term Loan Facility) rate plus 1.0% (subject in each case to a floor of 0.0%), plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 0.75% dependent on the Company’s non-credit-enhanced senior unsecured long-term debt ratings (or, if no such debt is outstanding at such time, then the corporate, issuer or similar rating with respect to the Company that has been most recently announced) (the “Debt Rating”), or (b) Term SOFR plus 0.10% plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 1.75% dependent on the Debt Rating.

Our obligations under the Term Loan Facility are guaranteed by substantially all material wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries of the Company, including the Partnership.

The Term Loan Facility requires the Company to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Facility), determined as of the last day of each quarter for the four-fiscal-quarter-period ending on the date of determination, of no more than 5.50 to 1.00. For any four-fiscal-quarter-period during which a material acquisition or disposition occurs, the total leverage ratio will be determined on a pro forma basis as though such event had occurred as of the first day of such four-fiscal-quarter-period.

The Term Loan Facility limits the Company’s ability to make dividends to stockholders if an event of default (as defined in the Term Loan Facility) exists or would result from such distribution. In addition, the Term Loan Facility contains various covenants that may limit, among other things, the Company’s ability to incur subsidiary indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, merge or consolidate, and engage in transactions with affiliates.

Commercial Paper Program

In July 2022, we established the Commercial Paper Program. Under the terms of the Commercial Paper Program, we may issue, from time to time, unsecured commercial paper notes with varying maturities of less than one year. Amounts available under the Commercial Paper Program may be issued, repaid and re-issued from time to time, with the maximum aggregate face or principal amount outstanding at any one time not to exceed $2.75 billion. We maintain a minimum available borrowing capacity under the TRGP Revolver equal to the aggregate amount outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program as support. The Commercial Paper Program is guaranteed by each subsidiary that guarantees the TRGP Revolver. The commercial paper notes are presented in Long-term debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Senior Unsecured Notes Redemptions and Issuances

In March 2022, the Partnership redeemed all of the outstanding 5.375% Notes at a redemption price equal to $1,026.88 for each $1,000 principal amount of 5.375% Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, March 30, 2022, or a maximum combined aggregate redemption price (exclusive of accrued and unpaid interest) of $480.7 million. The 5.375% Notes were redeemed with available liquidity under the TRGP Revolver. As a result of the redemption of the 5.375% Notes, we recorded a loss due to debt extinguishment of $15.0 million comprised of $12.6 million of premiums paid and a write-off of $2.4 million of debt issuance costs.

In April 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering of (i) $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.200% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “4.200% Notes”) and (ii) $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.950% Senior Notes due 2052 (the “4.950% Notes”), resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1.5 billion. The 4.200% Notes and the 4.950% Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the TRGP Revolver, so long as such subsidiary guarantors satisfy certain conditions. The 4.200% Notes and the 4.950% Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of April 6, 2022, as supplemented by that certain First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 6, 2022, among us, such subsidiary guarantors and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee.

A portion of the net proceeds from the issuance was used to fund the concurrent cash tender offer (the “March Tender Offer”) and the subsequent redemption payment of the Partnership’s 5.875% Notes, with the remainder of the net proceeds used for repayment of the outstanding borrowings under the TRGP Revolver. As a result of the March Tender Offer and the subsequent redemption of the 5.875% Notes, we recorded a loss due to debt extinguishment of $33.8 million comprised of $29.3 million of premiums paid and a write-off of $4.5 million of debt issuance costs.

In July 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering of the 5.200% Notes and the 6.250% Notes, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion. The 5.200% Notes and the 6.250% Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the TRGP Revolver, so long as such subsidiary guarantors satisfy certain conditions. The 5.200% Notes and the 6.250% Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of April 6, 2022, as supplemented by that certain Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 7, 2022, among us, such subsidiary guarantors and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. We used the net proceeds from the issuance to fund a portion of the Delaware Basin Acquisition.

In the future, we or the Partnership may redeem, purchase or exchange certain of our and the Partnership’s outstanding debt through redemption calls, cash purchases and/or exchanges for other debt, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such calls, repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Shelf Registration

In March 2022, we filed with the SEC a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that registers the issuance and sale of certain debt and equity securities from time to time in one or more offerings (the “March 2022 Shelf”). The March 2022 Shelf will expire in March 2025. See Note 10 – Common Stock and Related Matters.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes payment obligations as of September 30, 2022, for debt instruments after giving effect to the debt extinguishments detailed above:


	Payments Due By Period
			Less Than						More Than
	Total		1 Year		1-3 Years		3-5 Years		5 Years

Long-term debt obligations (1)	$	10,466.4	$	—	$	1,500.0	$	2,637.2	$	6,329.2

(1)

Represents scheduled future maturities of consolidated debt obligations for the periods indicated.

(2)

Represents interest expense on debt obligations based on both fixed debt interest rates and prevailing September 30, 2022 rates for floating debt. During the preparation of the Company's third quarter 2022 consolidated financial statements, the Company identified an error related to the disclosure of future payment obligations for interest on debt. The Company does not believe this disclosure error is material to its previously issued historical consolidated financial statements for any of the periods impacted and accordingly, has not adjusted the historical financial statements disclosures. As of March 31, 2022, the future payment obligations for interest on debt were $2,340.3 million in total, comprised of $347.2 million, $694.4 million, $637.5 million, and $661.2 million, for the periods less than 1 year, 1-3 years, 3-5 years, and more than 5 years, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the future payment obligations for interest on debt were $3,496.8 million in total, comprised of $359.5 million, $719.0 million, $711.0 million, and $1,707.3 million, for the periods less than 1 year, 1-3 years, 3-5 years, and more than 5 years, respectively.

Note 8 — Other Long-term Liabilities

Other long-term liabilities are comprised of the following:


	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Deferred revenue	$	197.1	$	171.8
Asset retirement obligations		96.7		72.1
Operating lease liabilities		59.7		34.5
Other liabilities		13.5		23.2
Total long-term liabilities	$	367.0	$	301.6

Deferred Revenue

We have certain long-term contractual arrangements for which we have received consideration that we are not yet able to recognize as revenue. The resulting deferred revenue will be recognized once all conditions for revenue recognition have been met.

Deferred revenue as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, was $197.1 million and $171.8 million, respectively, which includes $129.0 million of payments received from Vitol Americas Corp. (“Vitol”) (formerly known as Noble Americas Corp.), a subsidiary of Vitol US Holding Co., in 2016, 2017, and 2018 as part of an agreement (the “Splitter Agreement”) related to the construction and operation of a crude oil and condensate splitter. In December 2018, Vitol elected to terminate the Splitter Agreement. The Splitter Agreement provides that the first three annual payments are ours if Vitol elects to terminate, which Vitol disputes. The timing of revenue recognition related to the Splitter Agreement deferred revenue is dependent on the outcome of current litigation with Vitol. Deferred revenue also includes nonmonetary consideration received in a 2015 amendment to a gas gathering and processing agreement and consideration received for other construction activities of facilities connected to our systems. See Note 14 – Contingencies.

Note 9 — Preferred Stock

Series A Preferred Redemption

In May 2022, we redeemed in full all of our issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred at a redemption price of $1,050.00 per share, plus $8.87 per share, which is the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends from April 1, 2022 up to, but not including, the redemption date of May 3, 2022. The difference between the consideration paid of $973.4 million (including unpaid dividends of $8.2 million) and the net carrying value of the shares redeemed was $223.7 million, of which $215.5 million was recorded as deemed dividends in our Consolidated Statements of Operations in the second quarter of 2022. Our Series A Preferred bore a cumulative 9.5% fixed dividend payable at the end of each fiscal quarter. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we paid $51.8 million of dividends to preferred shareholders. Following the redemption, we have no Series A Preferred outstanding and all rights of the holders of shares of Series A Preferred were terminated.

Note 10 — Common Stock and Related Matters

Shelf Registration

In March 2022, we filed the March 2022 Shelf. The March 2022 Shelf will expire in March 2025. See Note 7 – Debt Obligations.

Common Stock Dividends

In January 2022, we declared an increase to our common dividend to $0.35 per common share or $1.40 per common share annualized effective for the fourth quarter of 2021.

The following table details the dividends declared and/or paid by us to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2022:

(1)

The Series A Preferred had no mandatory redemption date, but was redeemable at our election for a 5% premium to the liquidation preference subsequent to March 16, 2022. In May 2022, we redeemed all of our issued and outstanding Series A Preferred at a redemption price of $1,050.00 per share, plus $8.87 per share, which is the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends from April 1, 2022 up to, but not including, the redemption date of May 3, 2022. See Note 9 – Preferred Stock for further discussion.

Note 12 — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The primary purpose of our commodity risk management activities is to manage our exposure to commodity price risk and reduce volatility in our operating cash flow due to fluctuations in commodity prices. We have entered into derivative instruments to hedge the commodity price risks associated with a portion of our expected (i) natural gas, NGL, and condensate equity volumes in our Gathering and Processing operations that result from percent-of-proceeds processing arrangements, (ii) future commodity purchases and sales in our Logistics and Transportation segment and (iii) natural gas transportation basis risk in our Logistics and Transportation segment. The hedge positions associated with (i) and (ii) above will move favorably in periods of falling commodity prices and unfavorably in periods of rising commodity prices and are primarily designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.

The hedges generally match the NGL product composition and the NGL delivery points of our physical equity volumes. Our natural gas hedges are a mixture of specific gas delivery points and Henry Hub. The NGL hedges may be transacted as specific NGL hedges or as baskets of ethane, propane, normal butane, isobutane and natural gasoline based upon our expected equity NGL composition. We believe this approach avoids uncorrelated risks resulting from employing hedges on crude oil or other petroleum products as “proxy” hedges of NGL prices. Our natural gas and NGL hedges are settled using published index prices for delivery at various locations.

We hedge a portion of our condensate equity volumes using crude oil hedges that are based on the NYMEX futures contracts for West Texas Intermediate light, sweet crude, which approximates the prices received for condensate. This exposes us to a market differential risk if the NYMEX futures do not move in exact parity with the sales price of our underlying condensate equity volumes.

We also enter into derivative instruments to help manage other short-term commodity-related business risks and take advantage of market opportunities. We have not designated these derivatives as hedges and record changes in fair value and cash settlements to revenues as current income.

At September 30, 2022, the notional volumes of our commodity derivative contracts were:


Commodity	Instrument	Unit	2022		2023		2024		2025		2026		2027
Natural Gas	Swaps	MMBtu/d		213,394		175,687		102,347		19,895		—		—

Our derivative contracts are subject to netting arrangements that permit our contracting subsidiaries to net cash settle offsetting asset and liability positions with the same counterparty within the same Targa entity. We record derivative assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets on a gross basis, without considering the effect of master netting arrangements.

The following schedules reflect the fair value of our derivative instruments and their location on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as well as pro forma reporting assuming that we reported derivatives subject to master netting agreements on a net basis:

Some of our hedges are futures contracts executed through brokers that clear the hedges through an exchange. We maintain a margin deposit with the brokers in an amount sufficient to cover the fair value of our open futures positions. The margin deposit is considered collateral, which is located within Other current assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and is not offset against the fair value of our derivative instruments. Our derivative instruments other than our futures contracts are executed under International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) agreements, which govern the key terms with our counterparties. Our ISDA agreements contain credit-risk related contingent features. Following the release of the collateral securing our TRGP Revolver, our derivative positions are no longer secured. As of September 30, 2022, we have outstanding net derivative positions that contain credit-risk related contingent features that are in a net liability position of ($392.3) million. We have not been required to post any collateral related to these positions due to our credit rating. If our credit rating was to be downgraded one notch below investment grade by both Moody’s and S&P, as defined in our ISDAs, we estimate that as of September 30, 2022, we would be required to post $77.4 million of collateral to certain counterparties per the terms of our ISDAs.

The fair value of our derivative instruments, depending on the type of instrument, was determined by the use of present value methods or standard option valuation models with assumptions about commodity prices based on those observed in underlying markets. The estimated fair value of our derivative instruments was a net liability of ($330.1) million as of September 30, 2022. The estimated fair value is net of an adjustment for credit risk based on the default probabilities as indicated by market quotes for the counterparties’ credit default swap rates. The credit risk adjustment was immaterial for all periods presented. Our futures contracts that are cleared through an exchange are margined daily and do not require any credit adjustment.

The following tables reflect amounts recorded in Other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and amounts reclassified from OCI to revenue for the periods indicated:


	Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI on Derivatives (Effective Portion)

Revenues	$	(121.7	)	$	(100.4	)	$	(425.2	)	$	(303.8	)

Based on valuations as of September 30, 2022, we expect to reclassify commodity hedge-related deferred losses of ($15.5) million included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings before income taxes through the end of 2025, with $11.8 million of gains to be reclassified over the next twelve months.

Our consolidated earnings are also affected by the use of the mark-to-market method of accounting for derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting or that have not been designated as hedges. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded on the balance sheet and through earnings rather than being deferred until the anticipated transaction settles. The use of mark-to-market accounting for financial instruments can cause non-cash earnings volatility due to changes in the underlying commodity price indices. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the unrealized mark-to-market losses are primarily attributable to unfavorable movements in natural gas forward prices, as compared to our positions.

See Note 13 – Fair Value Measurements and Note 18 – Segment Information for additional disclosures related to derivative instruments and hedging activities.

Note 13 — Fair Value Measurements

Under GAAP, our Consolidated Balance Sheets reflect a mixture of measurement methods for financial assets and liabilities (“financial instruments”). Derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Other financial instruments are reported at historical cost or amortized cost on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following are additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding fair value measurements of financial instruments.

Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments

Our derivative instruments consist of financially settled commodity swaps, futures, option contracts and fixed-price forward commodity contracts with certain counterparties. We determine the fair value of our derivative contracts using present value methods or standard option valuation models with assumptions about commodity prices based on those observed in underlying markets. We have consistently applied these valuation techniques in all periods presented and we believe we have obtained the most accurate information available for the types of derivative contracts we hold.

The fair values of our derivative instruments are sensitive to changes in forward pricing on natural gas, NGLs and crude oil. The financial position of these derivatives at September 30, 2022, a net liability position of ($330.1) million, reflects the present value, adjusted for counterparty credit risk, of the amount we expect to receive or pay in the future on our derivative contracts. If forward pricing on natural gas, NGLs and crude oil were to increase by 10%, the result would be a fair value reflecting a net liability of ($556.2) million. If forward pricing on natural gas, NGLs and crude oil were to decrease by 10%, the result would be a fair value reflecting a net liability of ($103.8) million.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

Due to their cash or near-cash nature, the carrying value of other financial instruments included in working capital (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable) approximates their fair value. Long-term debt is primarily the other financial instrument for which carrying value could vary significantly from fair value. We determined the supplemental fair value disclosures for our long-term debt as follows:

•

the TRGP Revolver, commercial paper notes, Securitization Facility and Term Loan Facility are based on carrying value, which approximates fair value as their interest rates are based on prevailing market rates; and

•

the TRGP senior unsecured notes and the Partnership’s senior unsecured notes are based on quoted market prices derived from trades of the debt.

Fair Value Hierarchy

We categorize the inputs to the fair value measurements of financial assets and liabilities at each balance sheet reporting date using a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the significant inputs used in measuring fair value:

•

Level 1 – observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

•

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that we can directly or indirectly observe to the extent that the markets are liquid for the relevant settlement periods; and

•

Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore we must develop our own assumptions.

The following table shows a breakdown by fair value hierarchy category for (1) financial instruments measurements included on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and (2) supplemental fair value disclosures for other financial instruments:


	September 30, 2022
	Carrying		Fair Value
	Value		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

The fair value of derivative contracts in this table is presented on a different basis than the Consolidated Balance Sheets presentation as disclosed in Note 12 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The above fair values reflect the total value of each derivative contract taken as a whole, whereas the Consolidated Balance Sheets presentation is based on the individual maturity dates of estimated future settlements. As such, an individual contract could have both an asset and liability position when segregated into its current and long-term portions for Consolidated Balance Sheets classification purposes.

Additional Information Regarding Level 3 Fair Value Measurements Included on Our Consolidated Balance Sheets

We report certain of our swaps and option contracts at fair value using Level 3 inputs due to such derivatives not having observable market prices or implied volatilities for substantially the full term of the derivative asset or liability. For valuations that include both observable and unobservable inputs, if the unobservable input is determined to be significant to the overall inputs, the entire valuation is categorized in Level 3. This includes derivatives valued using indicative price quotations whose contract length extends into unobservable periods.

The fair value of these swaps is determined using a discounted cash flow valuation technique based on a forward commodity basis curve. For these derivatives, the primary input to the valuation model is the forward commodity basis curve, which is based on observable or public data sources and extrapolated when observable prices are not available.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of our Level 3 derivatives were (i) the forward natural gas liquids pricing curves, for which a significant portion of the derivative’s term is beyond available forward pricing and (ii) implied volatilities, which are unobservable as a result of inactive natural gas liquids options trading. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had no derivative contracts categorized as Level 3.

Note 14 — Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We and the Partnership are parties to various legal, administrative and regulatory proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of our business. We and the Partnership are also parties to various proceedings with governmental environmental agencies, including but not limited to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality, New Mexico Environment Department, Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality and North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality, which assert monetary sanctions for alleged violations of environmental regulations, including air emissions, discharges into the environment and reporting deficiencies, related to events that have arisen at certain of our facilities in the ordinary course of our business.

On December 26, 2018, Vitol filed a lawsuit in the 80th District Court of Harris County (the “District Court”), Texas against Targa Channelview LLC, then a subsidiary of the Company (“Targa Channelview”), seeking recovery of $129.0 million in payments made to Targa Channelview, additional monetary damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Vitol alleges that Targa Channelview breached the Splitter Agreement, which provided for Targa Channelview to construct a crude oil and condensate splitter (the “Splitter”) adjacent to a barge dock owned by Targa Channelview to provide services contemplated by the Splitter Agreement. In January 2018, Vitol acquired Noble Americas Corp. and on December 23, 2018, Vitol voluntarily elected to terminate the Splitter Agreement claiming that Targa Channelview failed to timely achieve start-up of the Splitter. Vitol’s lawsuit also alleges Targa Channelview made a series of misrepresentations about the capability of the barge dock that would service crude oil and condensate volumes to be processed by the Splitter and Splitter products. Vitol seeks return of $129.0 million in payments made to Targa Channelview prior to the start-up of the Splitter, as well as additional damages. On the same date that Vitol filed its lawsuit, Targa Channelview filed a lawsuit against Vitol seeking a judicial determination that Vitol’s sole and exclusive remedy was Vitol’s voluntarily termination of the Splitter Agreement and, as a result, Vitol was not entitled to the return of any prior payments under the Splitter Agreement or other damages as alleged. Targa also seeks recovery of its attorneys’ fees and costs in the lawsuit.

On October 15, 2020, the District Court awarded Vitol $129.0 million (plus interest) following a bench trial. In addition, the District Court awarded Vitol $10.5 million in damages for losses and demurrage on crude oil that Vitol purchased for start-up efforts. The Company appealed the award to the Fourteenth Court of Appeals in Houston, Texas. In October 2020, we sold Targa Channelview but, under the agreements governing the sale, we retained the liabilities associated with the Vitol proceedings. On September 13, 2022, the Fourteenth Court of Appeals upheld the trial court’s judgment in part with regard to the return of Vitol’s prior payments, but modified the judgment to delete Vitol’s ability to recover any damages related to losses or demurrage on crude oil. We are in the process of preparing our further appeal to the Supreme Court of Texas. The cumulative amount of interest on the award through September 30, 2022, if accrued, would have been approximately $39.6 million.

Note 15 — Revenue

Fixed consideration allocated to remaining performance obligations

The following table presents the estimated minimum revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations at the end of the reporting period, and is comprised of fixed consideration primarily attributable to contracts with minimum volume commitments, for which a guaranteed amount of revenue can be calculated. These contracts are comprised primarily of gathering and processing, fractionation, export, terminaling and storage agreements, with remaining contract terms ranging from 1 to 17 years.


	2022		2023		2024 and after
Fixed consideration to be recognized as of September 30, 2022	$	117.7	$	432.6	$	2,573.6

Based on the optional exemptions that we elected to apply, the amounts presented in the table above exclude remaining performance obligations for (i) variable consideration for which the allocation exception is met and (ii) contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less.

For disclosures related to disaggregated revenue, see Note 18 – Segment Information.

Note 16 — Income Taxes

The Company records income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate and recognizes specific events discretely as they occur. We regularly evaluate the realizable tax benefits of deferred tax assets and record a valuation allowance, if required, based on an estimate of the amount of deferred tax assets that we believe does not meet the more-likely-than-not criteria of being realized.

As of September 30, 2022, our valuation allowance was $99.1 million, a decrease of $111.5 million from December 31, 2021. After the change in valuation allowance, we have a net deferred tax liability of $301.4 million.

As we achieve sustained profitability, increased consideration will be given to projections of future taxable income to determine whether such projections provide an adequate source of taxable income for the realization of our deferred tax assets and may result in a change to our valuation allowance in the next twelve months. We will continue to evaluate the valuation allowance based on current and expected earnings and other factors and adjust accordingly.

In January 2022, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) notified us that it will examine Targa’s net operating loss carryback previously claimed under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act. We have responded to information requests from the IRS and do not anticipate material changes in prior year taxable income.

On October 6, 2021 and April 7, 2022, we received notice from the IRS that it intends to audit three direct and indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company (Targa Resources Partners LP, Targa Downstream LLC and Targa Midstream Services LLC) treated as partnerships for federal tax purposes for the 2019 and 2020 tax years. We are responding to the information requests from the IRS on these audits. The Company is not aware of any potential audit findings that would give rise to adjustments to taxable income and does not anticipate material changes related to these audits.

Note 18 — Segment Information

We operate in two primary segments: (i) Gathering and Processing, and (ii) Logistics and Transportation (also referred to as the Downstream Business). Our reportable segments include operating segments that have been aggregated based on the nature of the products and services provided.

Our Gathering and Processing segment includes assets used in the gathering and/or purchase and sale of natural gas produced from oil and gas wells, removing impurities and processing this raw natural gas into merchantable natural gas by extracting NGLs; and assets used for the gathering and terminaling and/or purchase and sale of crude oil. The Gathering and Processing segment's assets are located in the Permian Basin of West Texas and Southeast New Mexico (including the Midland, Central and Delaware Basins); the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas; the Barnett Shale in North Texas; the Anadarko, Ardmore, and Arkoma Basins in Oklahoma (including the SCOOP and STACK) and South Central Kansas; the Williston Basin in North Dakota (including the Bakken and Three Forks plays); and the onshore and near offshore regions of the Louisiana Gulf Coast and the Gulf of Mexico.

Our Logistics and Transportation segment includes the activities and assets necessary to convert mixed NGLs into NGL products and also includes other assets and value-added services such as transporting, storing, fractionating, terminaling, and marketing of NGLs and NGL products, including services to LPG exporters and certain natural gas supply and marketing activities in support of our other businesses. The Logistics and Transportation segment also includes Grand Prix, which connects our gathering and processing positions in the Permian Basin, Southern Oklahoma and North Texas with our Downstream facilities in Mont Belvieu, Texas. The associated assets are generally connected to and supplied in part by our Gathering and Processing segment and, except for the pipelines and smaller terminals, are located predominantly in Mont Belvieu and Galena Park, Texas, and in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

Other contains the unrealized mark-to-market gains/losses related to derivative contracts that were not designated as cash flow hedges. Elimination of inter-segment transactions are reflected in the corporate and eliminations column.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“Annual Report”), as well as the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes hereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) is a publicly traded Delaware corporation formed in October 2005. Targa is a leading provider of midstream services and is one of the largest independent midstream infrastructure companies in North America. We own, operate, acquire, and develop a diversified portfolio of complementary domestic midstream infrastructure assets.

Our Operations

We are engaged primarily in the business of:

•

gathering, compressing, treating, processing, transporting, and purchasing and selling natural gas;

•

transporting, storing, fractionating, treating, and purchasing and selling NGLs and NGL products, including services to LPG exporters; and

•

gathering, storing, terminaling, and purchasing and selling crude oil.

To provide these services, we operate in two primary segments: (i) Gathering and Processing, and (ii) Logistics and Transportation (also referred to as the Downstream Business).

Our Logistics and Transportation segment includes the activities and assets necessary to convert mixed NGLs into NGL products and also includes other assets and value-added services such as transporting, storing, fractionating, terminaling, and marketing of NGLs and NGL products, including services to LPG exporters and certain natural gas supply and marketing activities in support of our other businesses. The Logistics and Transportation segment also includes the Grand Prix NGL Pipeline (“Grand Prix”), which connects our gathering and processing positions in the Permian Basin, Southern Oklahoma and North Texas with our Downstream facilities in Mont Belvieu, Texas. The associated assets are generally connected to and supplied in part by our Gathering and Processing segment and, except for the pipelines and smaller terminals, are located predominantly in Mont Belvieu and Galena Park, Texas, and in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

Other contains the unrealized mark-to-market gains/losses related to derivative contracts that were not designated as cash flow hedges.

Recent Developments

Permian Midland Processing Expansions

In August 2021, in response to increasing production and to meet the infrastructure needs of producers, we announced the construction of a new 275 MMcf/d cryogenic natural gas processing plant in Permian Midland (the “Legacy plant”). The Legacy plant commenced operations in the third quarter of 2022.

In February 2022, in response to increasing production and to meet the infrastructure needs of producers, we announced the construction of a new 275 MMcf/d cryogenic natural gas processing plant in Permian Midland (the “Legacy II plant”). The Legacy II plant is expected to begin operations in the second quarter of 2023.

In August 2022, in response to increasing production and to meet the infrastructure needs of producers, we announced the construction of a new 275 MMcf/d cryogenic natural gas processing plant in Permian Midland (the “Greenwood plant”). The Greenwood plant is expected to begin operations late in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Permian Delaware Processing Expansions

In February 2022, in response to increasing production and to meet the infrastructure needs of producers, we announced the construction of a new 275 MMcf/d cryogenic natural gas processing plant in Permian Delaware (the “Midway plant”). The Midway plant is expected to begin operations in the second quarter of 2023. In conjunction with the commencement of operations of the Midway plant, we expect to idle the Sand Hills plant.

In July 2022, we acquired a 230 MMcf/d cryogenic natural gas processing plant, which was under construction at the time of acquisition, in Permian Delaware (the "Red Hills VI plant") as part of our acquisition of certain assets in the Delaware Basin. The Red Hills VI plant commenced operations at the end of the third quarter of 2022.

In November 2022, in response to increasing production and to meet the infrastructure needs of producers, we announced the construction of a new 275 MMcf/d cryogenic natural gas processing plant in Permian Delaware (the “Wildcat II plant”). The Wildcat II plant is expected to begin operations in the first quarter of 2024.

Fractionation Expansion

In August 2022, we announced plans to construct a new 120 MBbl/d fractionation train in Mont Belvieu, Texas (“Train 9”). Train 9 is expected to begin operations in the second quarter of 2024.

NGL Pipeline Expansion

In November 2022, we announced plans to construct a new NGL pipeline (the “Daytona NGL Pipeline”) as an addition to our common carrier Grand Prix NGL Pipeline system. The pipeline will transport NGLs from the Permian Basin and connect to the 30-inch diameter segment of our Grand Prix NGL Pipeline in North Texas, where volumes will be transported to our fractionation and storage complex in the NGL market hub at Mont Belvieu, Texas. The Daytona NGL Pipeline will be supported by our volumes and other third-party customer volumes, and is expected to be in service by the end of 2024, at an estimated cost of approximately $650 million. Grand Prix Pipeline LLC (the "Grand Prix Joint Venture"), of which we own 75% and Blackstone Energy Partners owns 25%, will own the Daytona NGL Pipeline and each member will fund their respective share of the pipeline’s cost based on their ownership percentage. We are constructing and expect to operate the Daytona NGL Pipeline. We expect to fund the construction of the Daytona NGL Pipeline through the utilization of operating cash flows and available liquidity.

Capital Investments, Acquisitions and Divestitures

In January 2022, we completed the purchase of all of Stonepeak Infrastructure Partners’ (“Stonepeak”) interests in our development company joint ventures (“DevCo JVs”) for $926.3 million (the “DevCo JV Repurchase”). Following the DevCo JV Repurchase, we own a 75% interest in the Grand Prix Joint Venture, a 100% interest in the Train 6 fractionator in Mont Belvieu, Texas and owned a 25% equity interest in Gulf Coast Express Pipeline (“GCX”), prior to the GCX Sale (as defined below) in February 2022. The DevCo JV Repurchase resulted in an $857.9 million reduction of Noncontrolling interests on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In April 2022, we completed the bolt-on acquisition of Southcross Energy Operating LLC and its subsidiaries (“Southcross”) for a purchase price of $201.9 million (the “South Texas Acquisition”), subject to customary closing adjustments. We expect to make a final closing adjustment payment of approximately $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. We acquired a portfolio of complementary midstream infrastructure assets and associated contracts that have been integrated into our SouthTX Gathering and Processing operations, including the remaining interests in the two operated joint ventures in South Texas that we previously held as investments in unconsolidated affiliates and have been prospectively consolidated beginning in the second quarter of 2022.

The assets acquired in the Delaware Basin Acquisition provide natural gas gathering, treating, and processing services in the Delaware Basin, through owning and operating approximately 1,050 miles of natural gas pipelines and approximately 1.4 billion cubic feet per day (“Bcf/d”) of cryogenic natural gas processing capacity primarily in Eddy and Lea counties of New Mexico. The Delaware Basin Acquisition assets increase our footprint in and are integrated into our Permian Delaware operations.

For further details on our acquisitions and divestitures, see Note 4 - Joint Ventures, Acquisitions and Divestitures and Note 6 - Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Common Share Repurchases and Preferred Stock Redemption

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased 1,156,832 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price of $63.06 for a total net cost of $72.9 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased 3,016,556 shares of our common stock at a weighted average price of $65.23 for a total net cost of $196.8 million. There was $171.8 million remaining under our $500 million common share repurchase program as of September 30, 2022.

Following the redemption, we have no Series A Preferred outstanding and all rights of the holders of shares of Series A Preferred were terminated. See Note 9 - Preferred Stock to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financing Activities

In July 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering of (i) $750.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 5.200% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “5.200% Notes”) and (ii) $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.250% Senior Notes due 2052 (the “6.250% Notes”), resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion. We used the net proceeds from the issuance to fund a portion of the Delaware Basin Acquisition.

In July 2022, we entered into the Term Loan Agreement with Mizuho Bank, Ltd. as the Administrative Agent and a lender, and other lenders party thereto (the “Term Loan Facility”). The Term Loan Facility provides for a three-year, $1.5 billion unsecured term loan facility. The Term Loan Facility matures in July 2025. We used the proceeds to fund a portion of the Delaware Basin Acquisition.

In July 2022, we established an unsecured commercial paper note program (the “Commercial Paper Program”). Under the terms of the Commercial Paper Program, we may issue, from time to time, unsecured commercial paper notes with varying maturities of less than one year. Amounts available under the Commercial Paper Program may be issued, repaid and re-issued from time to time, with the maximum aggregate face or principal amount outstanding at any one time not to exceed $2.75 billion. We maintain a minimum available borrowing capacity under the $2.75 billion TRGP revolving credit facility (the “TRGP Revolver”) equal to the aggregate amount outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program as support. The Commercial Paper Program is guaranteed by each subsidiary that guarantees the TRGP Revolver.

In September 2022, we amended the Partnership’s accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization Facility”) to, among other things, increase the facility size from $400.0 million to $800.0 million and extend the facility termination date to September 1, 2023.

For additional information about our recent debt-related transactions, see Note 7 - Debt Obligations to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Corporation Tax Matters

In January 2022, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) notified us that it will examine Targa’s net operating loss (“NOL”) carryback previously claimed under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. The CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020 and provided corporate taxpayers an expanded five-year NOL carryback period for losses generated in tax years 2018 through 2020. We received a cash refund of approximately $44 million related to the CARES Act provisions in 2020. We have responded to information requests from the IRS and do not anticipate material changes in prior year taxable income.

on these audits. The Company is not aware of any potential audit findings that would give rise to adjustments to taxable income and does not anticipate material changes related to these audits.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements that will affect us, see “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” included within Note 3 – Significant Accounting Policies to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

How We Evaluate Our Operations

The profitability of our business is a function of the difference between: (i) the revenues we receive from our operations, including fee-based revenues from services and revenues from the natural gas, NGLs, crude oil and condensate we sell, and (ii) the costs associated with conducting our operations, including the costs of wellhead natural gas, crude oil and mixed NGLs that we purchase as well as operating, general and administrative costs and the impact of our commodity hedging activities. Because commodity price movements tend to impact both revenues and costs, increases or decreases in our revenues alone are not necessarily indicative of increases or decreases in our profitability. Our contract portfolio, the prevailing pricing environment for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs, the impact of our commodity hedging program and its ability to mitigate exposure to commodity price movements, and the volumes of crude oil, natural gas and NGL throughput on our systems are important factors in determining our profitability. Our profitability is also affected by the NGL content in gathered wellhead natural gas, supply and demand for our products and services, utilization of our assets and changes in our customer mix.

Our profitability is also impacted by fee-based contracts. Our growing capital expenditures for pipelines and gathering and processing assets underpinned by fee-based margin, expansion of our Downstream facilities, continued focus on adding fee-based margin to our existing and future gathering and processing contracts, as well as third-party acquisitions of businesses and assets, will continue to increase the number of our contracts that are fee-based. Fixed fees for services such as gathering and processing, transportation, fractionation, storage, terminaling and crude oil gathering are not directly tied to changes in market prices for commodities. Nevertheless, a change in market dynamics such as available commodity throughput does affect profitability.

Management uses a variety of financial measures and operational measurements to analyze our performance. These include: (1) throughput volumes, facility efficiencies and fuel consumption, (2) operating expenses, (3) capital expenditures and (4) the following non-GAAP measures: adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted operating margin (segment).

Throughput Volumes, Facility Efficiencies and Fuel Consumption

Our profitability is impacted by our ability to add new sources of natural gas supply and crude oil supply to offset the natural decline of existing volumes from oil and natural gas wells that are connected to our gathering and processing systems. This is achieved by connecting new wells and adding new volumes in existing areas of production, as well as by capturing crude oil and natural gas supplies currently gathered by third parties. Similarly, our profitability is impacted by our ability to add new sources of mixed NGL supply, connected by third-party transportation and Grand Prix, to our Downstream Business fractionation facilities and at times to our export facilities. We fractionate NGLs generated by our gathering and processing plants, as well as by contracting for mixed NGL supply from third-party facilities.

In addition, we seek to increase adjusted operating margin by limiting volume losses, reducing fuel consumption and by increasing efficiency. With our gathering systems’ extensive use of remote monitoring capabilities, we monitor the volumes received at the wellhead or central delivery points along our gathering systems, the volume of natural gas received at our processing plant inlets and the volumes of NGLs and residue natural gas recovered by our processing plants. We also monitor the volumes of NGLs received, stored, fractionated and delivered across our logistics assets. This information is tracked through our processing plants and Downstream Business facilities to determine customer settlements for sales and volume related fees for service and helps us increase efficiency and reduce fuel consumption.

As part of monitoring the efficiency of our operations, we measure the difference between the volume of natural gas received at the wellhead or central delivery points on our gathering systems and the volume received at the inlet of our processing plants as an indicator of fuel consumption and line loss. We also track the difference between the volume of natural gas received at the inlet of the processing plant and the NGLs and residue gas produced at the outlet of such plant to monitor the fuel consumption and recoveries of our facilities. Similar tracking is performed for our crude oil gathering and logistics assets and our NGL pipelines. These volume, recovery and fuel consumption measurements are an important part of our operational efficiency analysis and safety programs.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses are costs associated with the operation of specific assets. Labor, contract services, repair and maintenance and ad valorem taxes comprise the most significant portion of our operating expenses. These expenses remain relatively stable and independent of the volumes through our systems, but may increase with system expansions and will fluctuate depending on the scope of the activities performed during a specific period.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures are classified as growth capital expenditures and maintenance capital expenditures. Growth capital expenditures improve the service capability of the existing assets, extend asset useful lives, increase capacities from existing levels, add capabilities, and reduce costs or enhance revenues. Maintenance capital expenditures are those expenditures that are necessary to maintain the service capability of our existing assets, including the replacement of system components and equipment, which are worn, obsolete or completing their useful life and expenditures to remain in compliance with environmental laws and regulations.

Capital spending associated with growth and maintenance projects is closely monitored. Return on investment is analyzed before a capital project is approved, spending is closely monitored throughout the development of the project, and the subsequent operational performance is compared to the assumptions used in the economic analysis performed for the capital investment approval.

Non-GAAP Measures

We utilize non-GAAP measures to analyze our performance. Adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted operating margin (segment) are non-GAAP measures. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to these non-GAAP measures are income (loss) from operations, Net income (loss) attributable to Targa Resources Corp. and segment operating margin. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP measures and have important limitations as analytical tools. Investors should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because our non-GAAP measures exclude some, but not all, items that affect income and segment operating margin, and are defined differently by different companies within our industry, our definitions may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. Management compensates for the limitations of our non-GAAP measures as analytical tools by reviewing the comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures and incorporating these insights into our decision-making processes.

Adjusted Operating Margin

We define adjusted operating margin for our segments as revenues less product purchases and fuel. It is impacted by volumes and commodity prices as well as by our contract mix and commodity hedging program.

Gathering and Processing adjusted operating margin consists primarily of:

•

service fees related to natural gas and crude oil gathering, treating and processing; and

•

revenues from the sale of natural gas, condensate, crude oil and NGLs less producer settlements, fuel and transport and our equity volume hedge settlements.

Logistics and Transportation adjusted operating margin consists primarily of:

•

service fees (including the pass-through of energy costs included in certain fee rates);

•

system product gains and losses; and

•

NGL and natural gas sales, less NGL and natural gas purchases, fuel, third-party transportation costs and the net inventory change.

The adjusted operating margin impacts of mark-to-market hedge unrealized changes in fair value are reported in Other.

Adjusted operating margin for our segments provides useful information to investors because it is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our financial statements, including investors and commercial banks, to assess:

•

the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;

•

our operating performance and return on capital as compared to other companies in the midstream energy sector, without regard to financing or capital structure; and

•

the viability of capital expenditure projects and acquisitions and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities.

Management reviews adjusted operating margin and operating margin for our segments monthly as a core internal management process. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating our operating results. The reconciliation of our adjusted operating margin to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is presented under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Results of Operations – By Reportable Segment.”

Adjusted EBITDA

We define adjusted EBITDA as Net income (loss) attributable to Targa Resources Corp. before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other items that we believe should be adjusted consistent with our core operating performance. The adjusting items are detailed in the adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table and its footnotes. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by us and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, commercial banks and others to measure the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support our indebtedness and pay dividends to our investors.

Distributable Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow

We define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense on debt obligations, cash tax (expense) benefit and maintenance capital expenditures (net of any reimbursements of project costs). We define adjusted free cash flow as distributable cash flow less growth capital expenditures, net of contributions from noncontrolling interest and net contributions to investments in unconsolidated affiliates. Distributable cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are performance measures used by us and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to assess our ability to generate cash earnings (after servicing our debt and funding capital expenditures) to be used for corporate purposes, such as payment of dividends, retirement of debt or redemption of other financing arrangements.

NM Due to a low denominator, the noted percentage change is disproportionately high and as a result, considered not meaningful or material.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

The increase in commodity sales reflects higher natural gas and condensate prices ($867.5 million) and higher NGL and natural gas volumes ($110.3 million), partially offset by lower NGL prices ($132.7 million) and the unfavorable impact of hedges ($159.7 million).

The increase in fees from midstream services is primarily due to higher gas gathering and processing fees including the impact of the acquisition of certain assets in the Delaware Basin, and transportation and fractionation fees, partially offset by lower export volumes.

The increase in product purchases and fuel reflects higher natural gas and condensate prices and higher NGL and natural gas volumes, partially offset by lower NGL prices.

The increase in operating expenses is due to higher compensation and benefits, maintenance and rental costs primarily due to increased activity, system expansions, the acquisition of certain assets in the Delaware Basin and South Texas and inflation.

See “—Results of Operations—By Reportable Segment” for additional information on a segment basis.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense is primarily due to the acquisition of certain assets in the Delaware Basin and the shortening of depreciable lives of certain assets that have been, or will be, idled, partially offset by a lower depreciable base associated with assets that were impaired during the fourth quarter of 2021.

The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily due to higher compensation and benefits, insurance costs and professional fees.

The increase in interest expense, net is primarily due to higher net borrowings, partially offset by higher capitalized interest resulting from higher growth capital investments.

The decrease in equity earnings is primarily due to the GCX Sale, partially offset by lower losses resulting from the purchase of our remaining interests in the two operated joint ventures in South Texas that we previously held as investments in unconsolidated affiliates. See Note 4 – Joint Ventures, Acquisitions and Divestitures to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

The increase in income tax expense is primarily due to a lower return-to-provision benefit in 2022 compared to 2021.

The decrease in net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests is primarily due to the DevCo JV Repurchase, partially offset by accretion of noncontrolling interests in certain joint ventures in WestTX and higher income allocated to noncontrolling interest holders in the Grand Prix Joint Venture.

The decrease in dividends on Series A Preferred is due to the full redemption of all of our issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred during 2022. See Note 9 – Preferred Stock for further discussion.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

The increase in commodity sales reflects higher NGL, natural gas and condensate prices ($4,224.4 million) and higher NGL and natural gas volumes ($611.7 million), partially offset by the unfavorable impact of hedges ($414.1 million).

The increase in fees from midstream services is primarily due to higher gas gathering and processing fees including the impact of the acquisition of certain assets in the Delaware Basin, transportation and fractionation fees and export volumes.

The increase in product purchases and fuel reflects higher NGL, natural gas and condensate prices and higher NGL and natural gas volumes.

The increase in operating expenses is due to higher maintenance, compensation and benefits, and rental costs primarily due to increased activity, system expansions, the acquisition of certain assets in the Delaware Basin and South Texas and inflation, partially offset by the impact of a major winter storm that affected regions across Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Louisiana during the first quarter of 2021.

See “—Results of Operations—By Reportable Segment” for additional information on a segment basis.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense is primarily due to the acquisition of certain assets in South Texas and the Delaware Basin, shortening of the depreciable lives of certain assets that have been, or will be, idled and impact of system expansions on our asset base, partially offset by a lower depreciable base associated with assets that were impaired during the fourth quarter of 2021.

The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily due to higher compensation and benefits, insurance costs and professional fees.

The increase in interest expense, net is primarily due to higher net borrowings and higher non-cash interest expense related to an increase in the mandatorily redeemable preferred interest liability, partially offset by change in fair value of the mandatorily redeemable preferred interest, higher capitalized interest resulting from higher growth capital investments and lower commitment fees.

The decrease in equity earnings is primarily due to the GCX Sale and lower earnings from our investment in Little Missouri 4 LLC, partially offset by lower losses resulting from the purchase of our remaining interests in the two operated joint ventures in South Texas that we previously held as investments in unconsolidated affiliates and lower losses from Gulf Coast Fractionators. See Note 4 – Joint Ventures, Acquisitions and Divestitures to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

During 2022, we terminated our previous TRGP senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Previous TRGP Revolver”) and the Partnership’s senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Partnership Revolver”). In addition, the Partnership redeemed the 5.375% Senior Notes due 2027 and the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2026. These transactions resulted in a net loss from financing activities. During 2021, the Partnership redeemed its 5.125% Senior Notes due 2025 and the 4.250% Senior Notes due 2023. In addition, Targa Pipeline Partners LP redeemed its 4.750% Senior Notes due 2021 and the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023. These transactions resulted in a net loss from financing activities. See Note 7 – Debt Obligations for further discussion.

During 2022, we completed the GCX Sale resulting in a gain from sale of an equity method investment. See Note 4 – Joint Ventures, Acquisitions and Divestitures for further discussion.

The increase in income tax expense is primarily due to an increase in pre-tax book income, partially offset by a larger release of the valuation allowance in 2022 compared to 2021.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

The increase in adjusted operating margin was due to higher natural gas inlet volumes, higher realized commodity prices and higher fees resulting in increased margin predominantly in the Permian. The increase in natural gas inlet volumes in the Permian was attributable to both the acquisition of certain assets in the Delaware Basin and increased producer activity supported by the addition of the Legacy Plant during the third quarter of 2022. Natural gas inlet volumes in the Central region increased due to the acquisition of certain assets in South Texas during the second quarter of 2022 and increased producer activity. The increase in volumes in the Badlands and the Coastal region was attributable to increased producer activity.

The increase in operating expenses was predominantly due to the acquisition of certain assets in South Texas and the Delaware Basin in the second and third quarters of 2022. Additionally, higher volumes in the Permian, the addition of the Legacy plant in the third quarter of 2022, a full quarter of operations at the Heim plant in 2022 and inflation impacts resulted in increased costs primarily in compensation and benefits, rentals, materials, taxes and chemicals.

The increase in adjusted operating margin was due to higher pipeline transportation and fractionation margin and higher marketing margin, partially offset by lower LPG export margin. Pipeline transportation and fractionation volumes benefited from higher supply volumes primarily from our Permian Gathering and Processing systems and higher fees. Marketing margin increased due to greater optimization opportunities. LPG export margin decreased primarily due to higher fuel and power costs and lower volumes.

The increase in operating expenses was due to higher repairs and maintenance and higher compensation and benefits.

See further details of our risk management program in “Item 3. – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

Our Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2022, inclusive of our consolidated joint venture accounts, we had $192.9 million of Cash and cash equivalents on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We believe our cash positions, our cash flows from operating activities, our free cash flow after dividends and remaining borrowing capacity on our credit facilities (discussed below in “Short-term Liquidity”) are adequate to allow us to manage our day-to-day cash requirements and anticipated obligations as discussed further below. Our liquidity and capital resources are managed on a consolidated basis.

On a consolidated basis, our ability to finance our operations, including funding capital expenditures and acquisitions, meeting our indebtedness obligations, refinancing or repaying our indebtedness, meeting our collateral requirements and to pay dividends declared by our board of directors will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. Our ability to generate cash is subject to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control. These include commodity prices and ongoing efforts to manage operating costs and maintenance capital expenditures, as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors. For additional discussion on recent factors impacting our liquidity and capital resources, please see “Recent Developments.”

We are entitled to the entirety of distributions made by the Partnership on its equity interests. The actual amount we declare as dividends depends on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the level of our capital expenditures, future business prospects, compliance with our debt covenants and any other matters that our board of directors deems relevant.

On a consolidated basis, our main sources of liquidity and capital resources are internally generated cash flows from operations, borrowings under the TRGP Revolver, Commercial Paper Program, Securitization Facility, and access to debt and equity capital markets. We supplement these sources of liquidity with joint venture arrangements and proceeds from asset sales. For companies involved in hydrocarbon production, transportation and other oil and gas related services, the capital markets have experienced and may continue to experience volatility. Our exposure to adverse credit conditions includes our credit facilities, cash investments, hedging abilities, customer performance risks and counterparty performance risks.

Short-term Liquidity

Our short-term liquidity on a consolidated basis as of October 28, 2022, was:


	Consolidated Total
	(In millions)
Cash on hand (1)	$	546.7
Total availability under the Securitization Facility		800.0

Outstanding letters of credit under the TRGP Revolver		(33.2	)
Total liquidity	$	2,146.5

(1)

Includes cash held in our consolidated joint venture accounts.

Other potential capital resources associated with our existing arrangements includes our right to request an additional $500.0 million in commitment increases under the TRGP Revolver, subject to the terms therein. The TRGP Revolver matures on February 17, 2027.

A portion of our capital resources are allocated to letters of credit to satisfy certain counterparty credit requirements. As of September 30, 2022, we had $47.2 million letters of credit outstanding under the TRGP Revolver. They reflect certain counterparties’ views of our financial condition and ability to satisfy our performance obligations, as well as commodity prices and other factors.

Working Capital

Working capital is the amount by which current assets exceed current liabilities. On a consolidated basis, at the end of any given month, accounts receivable and payable tied to commodity sales and purchases are relatively balanced, with receivables from customers being offset by plant settlements payable to producers. The factors that typically cause overall variability in our reported total working capital are: (i) our cash position; (ii) liquids inventory levels, which we closely manage, and valuation; (iii) changes in payables and accruals related to major growth capital projects; (iv) changes in the fair value of the current portion of derivative contracts; (v) monthly swings in borrowings under the Securitization Facility; and (vi) major structural changes in our asset base or business operations, such as certain organic growth capital projects and acquisitions or divestitures.

Working capital as of September 30, 2022 decreased $367.7 million compared to December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to higher net borrowing on the Securitization Facility, higher product purchases and fuel payables as a result of higher commodity prices, partially offset by higher receivables resulting from higher commodity prices and an increase to NGL inventory.

Based on our anticipated levels of operations and absent any disruptive events, we believe that our internally generated cash flow, borrowings available under the TRGP Revolver, Commercial Paper Program, Securitization Facility, and proceeds from debt and equity offerings, as well as joint ventures and/or asset sales, should provide sufficient resources to finance our operations, capital expenditures, long-term debt obligations, collateral requirements and quarterly cash dividends for at least the next twelve months.

Long-term Financing

Our long-term financing consists of potentially raising funds through long-term debt obligations, the issuance of common stock, preferred stock, or joint venture arrangements.

In February 2022, we entered into the TRGP Revolver. The TRGP Revolver provides for a revolving credit facility in an initial aggregate principal amount up to $2.75 billion, with an option to increase such maximum aggregate principal amount by up to $500.0 million in the future, subject to the terms of the TRGP Revolver, including a swing line sub-facility of up to $100.0 million. The TRGP Revolver matures in February 2027. In connection with our entry into the TRGP Revolver, we terminated the Previous TRGP Revolver and the Partnership Revolver. In February 2022, TRGP and the Partnership received a corporate investment grade credit rating from Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC and Fitch Ratings Inc., and in March 2022, the Partnership received a corporate investment grade credit rating from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. As a result, in accordance with the TRGP Revolver, the collateral under the TRGP Revolver was released from the liens securing our obligations thereunder. As a result of the termination of the Previous TRGP Revolver and the Partnership Revolver, we recorded a loss due to debt extinguishment of $0.8 million.

In February 2022, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a parent guarantee whereby each party to the agreement unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, the payment of all of the obligations of the Partnership Issuers and Targa Resources Partners Finance Corporation under the respective indentures governing the Partnership Issuers’ senior unsecured notes. As of September 30, 2022, $5.0 billion of the Partnership Issuers’ senior unsecured notes was outstanding.

In March 2022, the Partnership redeemed all of the outstanding 5.375% Notes with available liquidity under the TRGP Revolver. As a result of the redemption of the 5.375% Notes, we recorded a loss due to debt extinguishment of $15.0 million comprised of $12.6 million of premiums paid and a write-off of $2.4 million of debt issuance costs.

In April 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering of (i) $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.200% Senior Notes due 2033 and (ii) $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.950% Senior Notes due 2052, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1.5 billion. A portion of the net proceeds from the issuance was used to fund the concurrent cash tender offer (the “March Tender Offer”) and the subsequent redemption payment of the Partnership’s 5.875% Notes, with the remainder of the net proceeds used for repayment of the outstanding borrowings under the TRGP Revolver. As a result of the March Tender Offer and the subsequent redemption of the 5.875% Notes, we recorded a loss due to debt extinguishment of $33.8 million comprised of $29.3 million of premiums paid and a write-off of $4.5 million of debt issuance costs.

In July 2022, we completed an underwritten public offering of the 5.200% Notes and the 6.250% Notes, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion. We used the net proceeds from the issuance to fund a portion of the Delaware Basin Acquisition.

In July 2022, we entered into the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility provides for a three-year, $1.5 billion unsecured term loan facility. The Term Loan Facility matures in July 2025. We used the proceeds to fund a portion of the Delaware Basin Acquisition.

In July 2022, we established the Commercial Paper Program. Under the terms of the Commercial Paper Program, we may issue, from time to time, unsecured commercial paper notes with varying maturities of less than one year. Amounts available under the Commercial Paper Program may be issued, repaid and re-issued from time to time, with the maximum aggregate face or principal amount outstanding at any one time not to exceed $2.75 billion. We maintain a minimum available borrowing capacity under the TRGP Revolver equal to the aggregate amount outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program as support. The Commercial Paper Program is guaranteed by each subsidiary that guarantees the TRGP Revolver. As of September 30, 2022, we had $632.0 million outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program.

otherwise. Such calls, repurchases, exchanges or redemptions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

To date, our debt balances and our subsidiaries’ debt balances have not adversely affected our operations, ability to grow or ability to repay or refinance indebtedness.

Compliance with Debt Covenants

As of September 30, 2022, both we and the Partnership were in compliance with the covenants contained in our various debt agreements.

Cash Flow

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

2022		2021		2022 vs. 2021
(In millions)
$	1,843.3	$	1,798.8	$	44.5

The primary drivers of cash flows from operating activities are: (i) the collection of cash from customers from the sale of NGLs and natural gas, as well as fees for processing, gathering, export, fractionation, terminaling, storage and transportation; (ii) the payment of amounts related to the purchase of NGLs, natural gas and crude oil; (iii) changes in payables and accruals related to major growth capital projects; and (iv) the payment of other expenses, primarily field operating costs, general and administrative expense and interest expense. In addition, we use derivative instruments to manage our exposure to commodity price risk. Changes in the prices of the commodities we hedge impact our derivative settlements as well as our margin deposit requirements on unsettled futures contracts.

The increase in net cash provided by operations was primarily due to higher commodity prices, resulting in higher collections from customers, partially offset by an increase in payments for product purchases and fuel and hedge transactions.

The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the outlays for the Delaware Basin Acquisition and South Texas Acquisition. Additionally, there were higher outlays for property, plant and equipment resulting from construction activities associated with our Permian expansions, including the Legacy, Red Hills VI, Midway, Legacy II and Greenwood plants, and Train 9, partially offset by proceeds from the GCX Sale.

The change in net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was primarily due to net borrowings of debt in 2022, as compared to net repayments of debt in 2021, partially offset by the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and repurchases of non-controlling interests in the DevCo JVs and common stock during 2022. Additionally, higher dividends were paid in 2022 due to the increase in our common stock dividends from $0.10 to $0.35 per common share in January 2022.

Preferred Dividends

Series A Preferred Redemption

redemption date of May 3, 2022. The difference between the consideration paid of $973.4 million (including unpaid dividends of $8.2 million) and the net carrying value of the shares redeemed was $223.7 million, of which $215.5 million was recorded as deemed dividends in our Consolidated Statements of Operations in the second quarter of 2022. Following the redemption, we have no Series A Preferred outstanding and all rights of the holders of shares of Series A Preferred were terminated. See Note 9 - Preferred Stock to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Prior to the redemption of our Series A Preferred in May 2022, our Series A Preferred bore a cumulative 9.5% fixed dividend payable at the end of each fiscal quarter. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we paid $51.8 million of dividends to preferred shareholders.

Capital Expenditures

The following table details cash outlays for capital projects for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

Cash outlays for capital projects	$	815.4	$	321.6

(1)

Growth capital expenditures, net of contributions from noncontrolling interests and including net contributions to investments in unconsolidated affiliates, were $624.8 million and $227.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

(2)

Maintenance capital expenditures, net of contributions from noncontrolling interests, were $126.8 million and $72.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

The increase in total growth capital expenditures was primarily due to system expansions in the Permian in response to forecasted production growth and higher activity levels, and expansions in our downstream business. The increase in total maintenance capital expenditures was primarily due to our growing infrastructure footprint.

With our recent announcements regarding the current expansion of natural gas processing in our Permian region, coupled with the construction of Train 9 fractionator in Mont Belvieu, we currently estimate that in 2022 we will invest between $1.1 to $1.2 billion in net growth capital expenditures for announced projects. Future growth capital expenditures may vary based on investment opportunities. We expect that 2022 maintenance capital expenditures, net of noncontrolling interests, will be approximately $150 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2022, there were $70.6 million in surety bonds outstanding related to various performance obligations. These are in place to support various performance obligations as required by (i) statutes within the regulatory jurisdictions where we operate and (ii) counterparty support. Obligations under these surety bonds are not normally called, as we typically comply with the underlying performance requirement.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Our principal market risks are our exposure to changes in commodity prices, particularly to the prices of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil, changes in interest rates, as well as nonperformance by our customers.

Risk Management

We evaluate counterparty risks related to our commodity derivative contracts and trade credit. All of our commodity derivatives are with major financial institutions or major energy companies. Should any of these financial counterparties not perform, we may not realize the benefit of some of our hedges under lower commodity prices, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We sell our natural gas, NGLs and condensate to a variety of purchasers. Non-performance by a trade creditor could result in losses.

Crude oil, NGL and natural gas prices are volatile. In an effort to reduce the variability of our cash flows, we have entered into derivative instruments to hedge the commodity price associated with a portion of our expected natural gas, NGL and condensate equity volumes, future commodity purchases and sales, and transportation basis risk through 2027. Market conditions may also impact our ability to enter into future commodity derivative contracts.

Commodity Price Risk

A portion of our revenues are derived from percent-of-proceeds contracts under which we receive a portion of the proceeds from the sale of commodities as payment for services. The prices of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil are subject to fluctuations in response to changes in supply, demand, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors beyond our control. We monitor these risks and enter into hedging transactions designed to mitigate the impact of commodity price fluctuations on our business. Cash flows from a derivative instrument designated as a hedge are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the item being hedged.

The primary purpose of our commodity risk management activities is to hedge some of the exposure to commodity price risk and reduce fluctuations in our operating cash flow due to fluctuations in commodity prices. In an effort to reduce the variability of our cash flows, as of September 30, 2022, we have hedged the commodity price associated with a portion of our expected (i) natural gas, NGL, and condensate equity volumes in our Gathering and Processing operations that result from our percent-of-proceeds processing arrangements, (ii) future commodity purchases and sales in our Logistics and Transportation segment and (iii) natural gas transportation basis risk in our Logistics and Transportation segment. We hedge a higher percentage of our expected equity volumes in the current year compared to future years, for which we hedge incrementally lower percentages of expected equity volumes. We also enter into commodity financial instruments to help manage other short-term commodity-related business risks of our ongoing operations and in conjunction with marketing opportunities available to us in the operations of our logistics and transportation assets. With swaps, we typically receive an agreed fixed price for a specified notional quantity of commodities and we pay the hedge counterparty a floating price for that same quantity based upon published index prices. Since we receive from our customers substantially the same floating index price from the sale of the underlying physical commodity, these transactions are designed to effectively lock-in the agreed fixed price in advance for the volumes hedged. In order to avoid having a greater volume hedged than our actual equity volumes, we typically limit our use of swaps to hedge the prices of less than our expected equity volumes. We utilize purchased puts (or floors) and calls (or caps) to hedge additional expected equity commodity volumes without creating volumetric risk. We may buy calls in connection with swap positions to create a price floor with upside. We intend to continue to manage our exposure to commodity prices in the future by entering into derivative transactions using swaps, collars, purchased puts (or floors), futures or other derivative instruments as market conditions permit.

When entering into new hedges, we intend 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 the expected equity NGL composition. We believe this strategy avoids uncorrelated risks resulting from employing hedges on crude oil or other petroleum products as “proxy” hedges of NGL prices. The fair value of our natural gas and NGL hedges are based on published index prices for delivery at various locations, which closely approximate the actual natural gas and NGL delivery points. A portion of our condensate sales are hedged using crude oil hedges that are based on the NYMEX futures contracts for West Texas Intermediate light, sweet crude.

A majority of these commodity price hedges are documented pursuant to a standard International Swap Dealers Association form with customized credit and legal terms. The principal counterparties (or, if applicable, their guarantors) have investment grade credit ratings. While we have no current obligation to post cash, letters of credit or other additional collateral to secure these hedges so long as we maintain our current credit rating, we could be obligated to post collateral to secure the hedges in the event of an adverse change in our creditworthiness where a counterparty’s exposure to our credit increases over the term of the hedge as a result of higher commodity prices. A purchased put (or floor) transaction does not expose our counterparties to credit risk, as we have no obligation to make future payments beyond the premium paid to enter into the transaction; however, we are exposed to the risk of default by the counterparty, which is the risk that the counterparty will not honor its obligation under the put transaction.

We also enter into commodity price hedging transactions using futures contracts on futures exchanges. Exchange traded futures are subject to exchange margin requirements, so we may have to increase our cash deposit due to a rise in natural gas, NGL or crude oil prices. Unlike bilateral hedges, we are not subject to counterparty credit risks when using futures on futures exchanges.

These contracts may expose us to the risk of financial loss in certain circumstances. Generally, our hedging arrangements provide us protection on the hedged volumes if prices decline below the prices at which these hedges are set. If prices rise above the prices at which they have been hedged, we will receive less revenue on the hedged volumes than we would receive in the absence of hedges (other than with respect to purchased calls).

To analyze the risk associated with our derivative instruments, we utilize a sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis measures the change in fair value of our derivative instruments based on a hypothetical 10% change in the underlying commodity prices, but does not reflect the impact that the same hypothetical price movement would have on the related hedged items. The financial statement impact on the fair value of a derivative instrument resulting from a change in commodity price would normally be offset by a corresponding gain or loss on the hedged item under hedge accounting. The fair values of our derivative instruments are also influenced by changes in market volatility for option contracts and the discount rates used to determine the present values.

The following table shows the effect of hypothetical price movements on the estimated fair value of our derivative instruments as of September 30, 2022:


	Fair Value			Result of 10% Price Decrease			Result of 10% Price Increase
	(In millions)
Natural gas	$	(383.6	)	$	(288.3	)	$	(478.9	)
NGLs		57.3			159.4			(44.6	)
Crude oil		(3.8	)		25.1			(32.7	)
Total	$	(330.1	)	$	(103.8	)	$	(556.2	)

The table above contains all derivative instruments outstanding as of the stated date for the purpose of hedging commodity price risk, which we are exposed to due to our equity volumes and future commodity purchases and sales, as well as basis differentials related to our gas transportation arrangements.

Our operating revenues decreased by ($243.2) million and ($83.7) million during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and ($742.7) million and ($328.6) million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, as a result of transactions accounted for as derivatives. The estimated fair value of our risk management position has moved from a net liability position of ($316.7) million at December 31, 2021 to ($330.1) million at September 30, 2022. Forward commodity prices have moved unfavorably relative to the fixed prices on our derivative contracts, creating this net liability position.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to the risk of changes in interest rates, primarily as a result of variable rate borrowings under the TRGP Revolver, the Commercial Paper Program, the Securitization Facility, and the Term Loan Facility. As of September 30, 2022, we do not have any interest rate hedges. However, we may enter into interest rate hedges in the future with the intent to mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates on cash flows. To the extent that interest rates increase, interest expense for the TRGP Revolver, the Commercial Paper Program, the Securitization Facility and the Term Loan Facility will also increase. As of September 30, 2022, we had $3.4 billion in outstanding variable rate borrowings. A hypothetical change of 100 basis points in the rate of our variable interest rate debt would impact our consolidated annual interest expense by $34.3 million based on our September 30, 2022 debt balances.

Counterparty Credit Risk

We are subject to risk of losses resulting from nonpayment or nonperformance by our counterparties. The credit exposure related to commodity derivative instruments is represented by the fair value of the asset position (i.e. the fair value of expected future receipts) at the reporting date. Our futures contracts have limited credit risk since they are cleared through an exchange and are margined daily. Should the creditworthiness of one or more of the counterparties decline, our ability to mitigate nonperformance risk is limited to a counterparty agreeing to either a voluntary termination and subsequent cash settlement or a novation of the derivative contract to a third party. In the event of a counterparty default, we may sustain a loss and our cash receipts could be negatively impacted. We have master netting provisions in the International Swap Dealers Association agreements with our derivative counterparties. These netting provisions allow us to net settle asset and liability positions with the same counterparties within the same Targa entity, and would reduce our maximum loss due to counterparty credit risk by $32.7 million as of September 30, 2022. The range of losses attributable to our individual counterparties as of September 30, 2022 would be between $0.1 million and $57.6 million, depending on the counterparty in default.

Customer Credit Risk

We extend credit to customers and other parties in the normal course of business. We have established various procedures to manage our credit exposure, including performing initial and subsequent credit risk analyses, setting maximum credit limits and terms and requiring credit enhancements when necessary. We use credit enhancements including (but not limited to) letters of credit, prepayments, parental guarantees and rights of offset to limit credit risk to ensure that our established credit criteria are followed and financial loss is mitigated or minimized.

We have an active credit management process, which is focused on controlling loss exposure due to bankruptcies or other liquidity issues of counterparties. Our allowance for doubtful accounts was $2.2 million and $0.1 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The change in the allowance for doubtful accounts was primarily due to the Delaware Basin Acquisition during the third quarter of 2022.

No customer comprised 10% or greater of our consolidated revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered in this Quarterly Report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2022, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

On July 29, 2022, we completed the Delaware Basin Acquisition. As part of the ongoing integration of the acquired business, we are in the process of incorporating the controls and related procedures. Except for the Delaware Basin Acquisition, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the three months ended September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

On December 26, 2018, Vitol Americas Corp. (“Vitol”) filed a lawsuit in the 80th District Court of Harris County (the “District Court”), Texas against Targa Channelview LLC, then a subsidiary of the Company (“Targa Channelview”), seeking recovery of $129.0 million in payments made to Targa Channelview, additional monetary damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Vitol alleges that Targa Channelview breached an agreement, dated December 27, 2015, for crude oil and condensate between Targa Channelview and Noble Americas Corp. (the “Splitter Agreement”), which provided for Targa Channelview to construct a crude oil and condensate splitter (the “Splitter”) adjacent to a barge dock owned by Targa Channelview to provide services contemplated by the Splitter Agreement. In January 2018, Vitol acquired Noble Americas Corp. and on December 23, 2018, Vitol voluntarily elected to terminate the Splitter Agreement claiming that Targa Channelview failed to timely achieve start-up of the Splitter. Vitol’s lawsuit also alleges Targa Channelview made a series of misrepresentations about the capability of the barge dock that would service crude oil and condensate volumes to be processed by the Splitter and Splitter products. Vitol seeks return of $129.0 million in payments made to Targa Channelview prior to the start-up of the Splitter, as well as additional damages. On the same date that Vitol filed its lawsuit, Targa Channelview filed a lawsuit against Vitol seeking a judicial determination that Vitol’s sole and exclusive remedy was Vitol’s voluntarily termination of the Splitter Agreement and, as a result, Vitol was not entitled to the return of any prior payments under the Splitter Agreement or other damages as alleged. Targa also seeks recovery of its attorneys’ fees and costs in the lawsuit.

On October 15, 2020, the District Court awarded Vitol $129.0 million (plus interest) following a bench trial. In addition, the District Court awarded Vitol $10.5 million in damages for losses and demurrage on crude oil that Vitol purchased for start-up efforts. The Company appealed the award in the Fourteenth Court of Appeals in Houston, Texas. In October 2020, we sold Targa Channelview but, under the agreements governing the sale, we retained the liabilities associated with the Vitol proceedings. On September 13, 2022, the Fourteenth Court of Appeals upheld the trial court’s judgment in part with regard to the return of Vitol’s prior payments, but modified the judgment to delete Vitol’s ability to recover any damages related to losses or demurrage on crude oil. We are in the process of preparing our further appeal to the Supreme Court of Texas. The cumulative amount of interest on the award through September 30, 2022, if accrued, would have been approximately $39.6 million.

Additional information required for this item is provided in Note 14 – Contingencies, under the heading “Legal Proceedings” included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference into this item.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

For an in-depth discussion of our risk factors, see “Part I—Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report in addition to the risk factor discussed below. All of these risks and uncertainties, including the risk discussed below, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.

Changes in tax laws or the interpretation thereof or the imposition of new or increased taxes may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

U.S. federal and state legislation is periodically proposed that would, if enacted into law, make significant changes to tax laws and could materially increase our tax obligations, adversely affecting our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For example, on August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) which includes, among other things, a corporate alternative minimum tax (the “CAMT”). Under the CAMT, a 15% minimum tax will be imposed on certain financial statement income of “applicable corporations.” The IRA treats a corporation as an applicable corporation in any taxable year in which the “average annual adjusted financial statement income” of such corporation for the three taxable year period ending with such taxable year exceeds $1 billion.

Based on our current interpretation of the IRA and the CAMT and a number of operational, economic, accounting and regulatory assumptions, we do not anticipate being an applicable corporation in the near term, but we are likely to become an applicable corporation in a subsequent tax year. If we become an applicable corporation and our CAMT liability is greater than our regular U.S. federal income tax liability for any particular tax year, the CAMT liability would effectively accelerate our future U.S. federal income tax obligations, reducing our cash available for distribution in that year, but provide an offsetting credit against our regular U.S. federal income tax liability for the future year. As a result, our current expectation is that the impact of the CAMT is limited to timing differences in future tax years.

The foregoing analysis is based upon our current interpretation of the provisions contained in the IRA and the CAMT. In the future the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service are expected to release regulations and interpretive guidance relating

to such legislation, and any significant variance from our current interpretation could result in a change in our analysis of the application of the CAMT to us.
