“Gibson delivered an exceptional third quarter, with record results across the business,” said Curtis Philippon, President & Chief Executive Officer. “Chauvin continues to exceed our expectations, and we are pleased to sanction an expansion that will increase pipeline capacity by approximately 50%. It is a great example of the kind of disciplined infrastructure investment we want to make: supported by our customers, closely connected to our existing assets and capable of delivering attractive returns. In the U.S., we also placed our Wink-to-Gateway Integration Project into service, enhancing connectivity across our network and positioning Gateway to capture additional volumes. With improving Canadian market access and growing producer activity, the opportunity set in front of Gibson is as strong as we have seen in some time. We are well positioned to turn those opportunities into meaningful growth and long-term value for shareholders.”
Financial Highlights:
- Infrastructure adjusted EBITDA(1) of $177 million in the third quarter, a $23 million increase from the third quarter of 2025, primarily driven by strong performance from the Chauvin Infrastructure Assets, higher overall throughput, including record volumes moved to TMX through Edmonton, ongoing optimization of our existing assets, and benefits from the Company’s 2026 restructuring initiatives
- Marketing adjusted EBITDA(1) of $35 million in the third quarter, a $28 million increase from the third quarter of 2025, primarily driven by strong refining margins resulting from elevated crack spreads, highlighting the benefits of the Company’s product diversification strategy
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) on a consolidated basis of $193 million in the third quarter, a $46 million increase from the third quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting stronger Infrastructure and Marketing results and adjustments for unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments in both periods, partially offset by higher General and Administrative costs
- Net income of $77 million in the third quarter, a $31 million increase from the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to the factors affecting segment adjusted EBITDA as noted above, partially offset by higher income tax expense and finance costs
- Distributable Cash Flow(1) of $120 million in the third quarter, a $34 million increase from the third quarter of 2025, primarily due to the factors contributing to higher adjusted EBITDA as noted above, partially offset by higher finance cost and current income tax expense
- Dividend payout ratio(2) of 82% and net debt to adjusted EBITDA(2) ratio of 3.9x on a trailing twelve-month basis, with both metrics expected to improve as a full 12 months of contributions from the Chauvin acquisition are reflected
Strategic Developments and Highlights:
- In November, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.45 per common share, payable on January 15, 2027, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 30, 2026
- In October, placed the Wink-to-Gateway Integration Project into service, enhancing connectivity and operational flexibility at Gateway
- In September, the Company’s NCIB was renewed for an additional one-year period, enabling the Company to repurchase and cancel up to 7,251,988 common shares, representing 5% of the Company’s public float
- In July, the Company closed its offering of $400 million 4.45% senior unsecured medium-term notes due January 9, 2034
