Processing Drives 2Q Beat; Annual Guide Reiterated

CITI'S TAKE

Neutral HESM reported adj. EBITDA of ~$314mm, beating the $303mm Citi

estimate and $302mm Streat mean (Factset). Annual guidance was Price (31 Jul 26 16:00) US$40.83

reiterated despite the >$10mm beat relative to the quarterly guidance Target price US$37.00

midpoint. That said, the ~$1.25bln annual EBITDA midpoint appears to be Expected share price return -9.4%

an easier lift following the 2Q beat, particularly given previously messaged Expected dividend yield 7.6%

expectations of the year being back half weighted - we expect 3Q26 Expected total return -1.8%

guidance on this morning's earnings call which should provide more

Market Cap US$8,418M insight into the expected shape of the year. On the quarter, processing

margin and lower than anticipated G&A drove the beat vs our estimates.

Volumes were largely in-line, though crude gathering volumes came in

below our expectations, down ~6% QoQ and tracking below both MVC Douglas IrwinAC

levels and HESM's annual volume guide. Terminaling EBITDA held +1-212-816-9525

relatively flat QoQ. No buybacks during the quarter, as previously douglas.irwin@citi.com

disclosed. HESM paid down nearly $90mm on the revolver during the

quarter.

Implications — The quarter's beat is positive, though reiterated annual guidance

could somewhat temper the reaction - commentary on this morning's call around

the durability of the quarter's beat will likely factor into sentiment.
