CEO COMMENT
Greg Ebel, President and CEO commented the following:

"Shaped by ongoing geopolitical developments around the world, energy markets have remained volatile in recent months. While supply disruptions persist and uncertainty continues, one thing is clear; energy security, reliability, and affordability are more important than ever. Against this backdrop, Enbridge's scale, connectivity, and portfolio of strategic infrastructure assets position us to help strengthen North America's energy future while delivering value for customers and shareholders. We are advancing projects all across our businesses and in the second quarter added $1 billion to our now $41 billion growth project backlog. Year-to-date, we have sanctioned $9 billion of new projects and are well on track to meet our targeted $10-20 billion of new project announcements over the 2026 to 2027 timeframe. 

"We continue to see a wide array of high-quality opportunities in our Gas Transmission business, driven by customer demand across the continent. In the U.S. Northeast, we completed an open season for Project Beacon, a proposed expansion of our Algonquin Gas Transmission system, which received significantly more interest than our initial expectations. We also signed an exclusive option to acquire the TTC Connector Pipeline. This pipeline will connect Enbridge's Tres Palacios Gas Storage facility to Freeport LNG and is expected to enter service by the end of the year. Lastly in our Permian JV, the Blackcomb Pipeline has begun commissioning and we've sanctioned the Bay Runner Twin to service additional trains at Rio Grande LNG.

"The accelerating momentum we're seeing in Canada to support growth in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin presents a differentiated opportunity for Enbridge. As production continues to increase, Enbridge is ideally positioned to help enable that growth through new WCSB egress, including various Mainline Optimizations, as well as opportunities on our other industry-leading Liquids assets. Our Regional Oil Sands system serves around 50% of all Alberta oil sands production, while our Southern Lights and Norlite systems provide critical diluent supply and are expandable alongside future production growth. These assets will become increasingly important to our growth profile as Canadian oil production rises in response to favourable market fundamentals and the implementation of more supportive policies by Canadian governments. As a result, Mainline Optimization Phase 2 has evolved into a broader suite of expansion opportunities, and as greater clarity emerges around policies supporting production growth later this year, Enbridge is well positioned to provide the egress solutions our customers require. This quarter we sanctioned and began construction on the Line 5 Relocation project in Wisconsin, which we expect to enter service in early 2027. The relocation reinforces the long-term reliability of Line 5, which remains essential to delivering secure, affordable energy to the Great Lakes region.

"Our Gas Distribution and Storage business continues to provide year-round reliable and affordable service to over 7 million customers. This quarter the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio Staff filed its report on our Enbridge Gas Ohio rate case. The report was constructive and we look forward to working with the Commission towards a settlement in 2027.

"Lastly, our Renewable Power segment continues to advance over 1.5 GW of safe harboured opportunities. This builds on the momentum we've seen over the past 12 months, which saw us sanction over 1.4 GW of solar and onshore wind generation capacity and 1.6 GWh of battery storage capacity, all underpinned by long-term power purchase agreements with Meta. We expect to sanction additional safe harboured projects during the remainder of the year. 

"As our secured capital backlog continues to grow, our teams also remain focused on execution. This quarter we began construction on our largest project, the $4 billion Sunrise Expansion of our B.C. Pipeline system. This is in addition to a number of projects that are progressing well, including Tennessee Ridgeline, Aspen Point and the second phase of Sequoia Solar, all which are expected to enter service later this year.

"Looking ahead, we remain committed to being the first choice for our customers, policymakers, and regulators to advance essential infrastructure across North America under our all-of-the-above approach to energy investment. With an unmatched incumbent footprint, a $41 billion secured capital backlog, and $10 to $11 billion of annual growth investment capacity, Enbridge is well positioned to capitalize on the best macro environment for growth in the last 10 years. We will continue to add visibility to, and extend, our 5% growth outlook further into the future. Enbridge remains on track to deliver on our financial guidance this year, reinforcing the strength of our first-choice investment proposition."

GAAP earnings attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2026 decreased by $0.8 billion, or $0.36 per share, compared with the same period in 2025. This decrease was primarily due to non-cash, unrealized changes in the value of derivative financial instruments used to manage foreign exchange, interest rate and commodity price risks. In addition, a non-cash pre-issuance hedge loss was recorded on an exchange of medium-term notes and a non-cash adjustment to crude oil inventory was recorded in our Liquids Pipelines segment. This was partially offset by the absence of an impairment of rate-regulated assets in Enbridge Gas Ohio and the operating performance items discussed below.

The period-over-period comparability of GAAP earnings attributable to common shareholders is impacted by certain unusual, infrequent or other non-operating factors which are noted in the reconciliation schedule included in Appendix A of this news release. Refer to the Company's Management's Discussion & Analysis for Q2 2026 filed in conjunction with the quarter-end financial statements for a detailed discussion of GAAP financial results.

Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2026 increased by $132 million compared with the same period in 2025. This was primarily as a result of the increased revenues attributable to the East Tennessee, Texas Eastern, and the Enbridge Gas Utah rate cases.

Adjusted earnings in the second quarter of 2026 decreased by $36 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with the same period in 2025, due to higher depreciation from assets placed into service and higher interest expense on incremental debt balances, partially offset by the operating performance discussed above.

DCF for the second quarter of 2026 increased $45 million compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to EBITDA factors discussed above and the timing of maintenance capital expenditures, partially offset by higher incremental debt balances driving higher interest expense.

Detailed financial information and analysis can be found below under Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results.

FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

The Company reaffirms its 2026 financial guidance for adjusted EBITDA between $20.2 billion and $20.8 billion and DCF per share between $5.70 and $6.10.

The Company also reaffirms its post-2026 adjusted EBITDA, DCF per share, and EPS near-term average compound annual growth rate of approximately 5%.

FINANCING UPDATE

The Company's rolling 12-month Debt-to-EBITDA metric at the end of the second quarter of 2026 was 5.1x, elevated in part due to the period end debt balance translating at a 1.42 CAD/USD foreign exchange rate compared to EBITDA translating at an average trailing 12-month rate of 1.38.

SECURED GROWTH PROJECT EXECUTION UPDATE

Enbridge added over $1 billion to its secured growth backlog through the sanctioning of the Line 5 Relocation project. In addition, the Enbridge Houston Oil Terminal entered service during the quarter.

The secured growth backlog now sits at approximately $41 billion. Financing of the secured growth program is expected to be provided through the Company's anticipated $10 to $11 billion of annual growth capital investment capacity.

SECOND QUARTER BUSINESS UPDATES

Liquids Pipelines: Line 5 Relocation Project

Enbridge has sanctioned and begun construction of the Line 5 Relocation project in Wisconsin, which involves a 41-mile re-route of the existing pipeline system. Upon entering service, Recoverable Line 5 Capital will be added to Mainline rate base. All key state and federal permits have been secured, including right-of-way agreements and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Clean Water Act permit.  Enbridge expects the project to cost US$1.0 billion and enter service in early 2027.

Gas Transmission: TTC Connector

Enbridge has signed an exclusive option agreement to purchase the TTC Connector, an under-construction natural gas development connecting Tres Palacios Gas Storage to the Coastal Bend Header pipeline for delivery to Freeport LNG. TTC Connector is a 25-mile, 300 MMcf/d greenfield pipeline with direct connection to Tres Palacios Gas Storage. The development is supported by long-term service agreements with bp for all available capacity. Upon the pipeline entering service, Enbridge has the option to acquire TTC Connector at an accretive valuation.

Gas Transmission: Bay Runner Twin

Within the Whistler Joint Venture, Enbridge and partners have sanctioned the Bay Runner Twin, a twinning of the under-construction Bay Runner extension project delivering Permian natural gas supply to NextDecade's Rio Grande LNG facility in Texas. The project will run along Bay Runner's existing right-of-way, offering up to 2.6 Bcf/d of incremental capacity between Agua Dulce and Rio Grande. The Bay Runner Twin is underpinned by long-term take-or-pay agreements for all incremental service capacity, and is expected to enter service by 2030.

Non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to Non-GAAP Reconciliations Appendices.

Adjusted EBITDA for Enbridge Gas Ontario, Enbridge Gas Utah and Enbridge Gas North Carolina typically follows a seasonal profile. EBITDA is generally highest in the first and fourth quarters of the year. Seasonal profiles for Enbridge Gas Ontario, Enbridge Gas Utah and Enbridge Gas North Carolina reflect greater volumetric demand during the heating season and the magnitude of the seasonal adjusted EBITDA fluctuations will vary from year-to-year in Ontario reflecting the impact of colder or warmer than normal weather on distribution volumes. Enbridge Gas Ohio's earnings are largely decoupled from volumes and less impacted by weather fluctuations. Enbridge Gas Utah and Enbridge Gas North Carolina have revenue decoupling mechanisms that are not impacted by weather or gas volume variability, but revenues are shaped to align with the seasonal usage profile.

Gas Distribution and Storage adjusted EBITDA increased $38 million compared with the second quarter of 2025 primarily related to:

  • higher base rates for Enbridge Gas Utah and Enbridge Gas North Carolina due to recent rate cases.

When compared with the normal weather forecast embedded in rates, the positive impact of weather to adjusted EBITDA for Enbridge Gas Ontario was approximately $9 million in the second quarter of 2026, net of sharing, in line with the a positive impact of approximately $10 million in the same period of 2025.

Forward-looking information, or forward-looking statements, have been included in this news release to provide information about Enbridge and its subsidiaries and affiliates, including management's assessment of Enbridge and its subsidiaries' future plans and operations. This information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as ''anticipate'', ''believe'', "estimate'', ''expect'', ''forecast'', ''intend'', "likely", ''plan'', ''project'', ''target'', and similar words suggesting future outcomes or statements regarding an outlook. Forward-looking information or statements included or incorporated by reference in this document include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the following: our corporate vision and strategy, including our strategic priorities and enablers; 2026 financial guidance and near-term outlook, including projected DCF per share, EPS and adjusted EBITDA and expected growth thereof; expected dividends, dividend growth and payout policy; expected supply of, demand for, exports of and prices of crude oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGL), liquefied natural gas (LNG), renewable natural gas (RNG) and renewable energy; industry and market conditions; anticipated utilization of our assets; expected EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA; expected earnings/(loss) and adjusted earnings/(loss); expected DCF and DCF per share; expected future cash flows; expected shareholder returns and asset returns; expected performance of Enbridge's businesses; financial strength, capacity and flexibility; financing costs and plans; expectations on leverage, including Debt-to-EBITDA ratio; expectations on sources of liquidity and sufficiency of financial resources; expected costs, benefits and in-service dates related to announced projects and projects under construction; investable capacity and capital allocation priorities; impact of weather and seasonality; expected future growth, development and expansion opportunities, including with respect to the Line 5 Relocation, Bay Runner Twin, and the TTC Connector; the characteristics, anticipated benefits, financing and timing of our acquisitions, dispositions and other transactions; government trade policies, as well as possible impacts of potential and announced tariffs, duties, fees, economic sanctions, or other trade measures and the timing thereof; expected future actions and decisions of regulators and courts and the timing and impact thereof; and toll and rate case discussions and proceedings and anticipated outcomes, timelines and impacts therefrom.

Although Enbridge believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable based on the information available on the date such statements are made and processes used to prepare the information, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and readers are cautioned against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. By their nature, these statements involve a variety of assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results, levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Material assumptions include assumptions about the following: the expected supply of, demand for, export of and prices of crude oil, natural gas, NGL, LNG, RNG and renewable energy; energy transition, including the drivers and pace thereof; global economic growth and trade; anticipated utilization of our assets; exchange rates; inflation; interest rates; tax laws and tax rates; evolving government trade policies, including potential and announced tariffs, duties, fees, economic sanctions, or other trade measures; availability and price of labour and construction materials; the stability of our supply chain; operational reliability and performance; maintenance of support and regulatory approvals for our projects and transactions; anticipated in-service dates and final investment decisions; weather; the timing, terms and closing of announced and potential acquisitions, dispositions and other transactions and projects and the anticipated benefits thereof; governmental legislation; litigation; credit ratings; capital project funding; hedging program; expected EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA; expected earnings/ (loss) and adjusted earnings/(loss); expected earnings/(loss) or adjusted earnings/(loss) per share; expected future cash flows; expected future DCF and DCF per share; estimated future dividends; financial strength and flexibility; debt and equity market conditions; general economic and competitive conditions. Assumptions regarding the expected supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas, NGL, LNG, RNG and renewable energy and the prices of these commodities are material to and underlie all forward-looking statements, as they may impact current and future levels of demand for our services. Similarly, exchange rates, inflation, interest rates and tariffs impact the economies and business environments in which we operate and may impact levels of demand for our services and cost of inputs and are therefore inherent in all forward-looking statements. The most relevant assumptions associated with forward-looking statements regarding announced projects and projects under construction, including estimated completion dates and expected capital expenditures, include the following: the availability and price of labour and construction materials; the stability of our supply chain; the effects of inflation and foreign exchange rates on labour and material costs; the effects of interest rates on borrowing costs; the impact of weather; and customer, government, court and regulatory approvals on construction and in-service schedules and cost recovery regimes.

Enbridge's forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties pertaining to the successful execution of our strategic priorities; operating performance; legislative and regulatory parameters and decisions; litigation; acquisitions, dispositions and other transactions and the realization of anticipated benefits therefrom; evolving government trade policies, including potential and announced tariffs, duties, fees, economic sanctions or other trade measures; operational dependence on third parties; project approval and support; renewals of rights-of-way; weather; economic and competitive conditions; global geopolitical conflicts and conditions; political decisions; public opinion; dividend policy; changes in tax laws and tax rates; exchange rates; interest rates; inflation; commodity prices; access to and cost of capital; our ability to maintain adequate insurance in the future at commercially reasonable rates and terms; and supply of, demand for, and prices of commodities and other alternative energy, including but not limited to those risks and uncertainties discussed in this news release and in Enbridge's other filings with Canadian and U.S. securities regulators. The impact of any one assumption, risk, uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty, as these are interdependent, and our future course of action depends on management's assessment of all information available at the relevant time. Except to the extent required by applicable law, Enbridge assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement made in this news release or otherwise, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS APPENDICES

This news release contains references to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per common share (EPS) and DCF per share. Management believes the presentation of these metrics gives useful information to investors and shareholders, as they provide increased transparency and insight into the performance of the Company.

EBITDA represents earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for unusual, infrequent or other non-operating factors on both a consolidated and segmented basis. Management uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to set targets and to assess the performance of the Company and its business units.

Adjusted earnings represent earnings attributable to common shareholders adjusted for unusual, infrequent or other non-operating factors included in adjusted EBITDA, as well as adjustments for unusual, infrequent or other non-operating factors in respect of depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, income taxes, noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests on a consolidated basis. Management uses adjusted earnings as another measure of the Company's ability to generate earnings and uses EPS to assess performance of the Company.

DCF is defined as cash flow provided by operating activities before the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities (including changes in environmental liabilities) less distributions to noncontrolling interests and redeemable noncontrolling interests, preference share dividends and maintenance capital expenditures and further adjusted for unusual, infrequent or other non-operating factors. Management also uses DCF to assess the performance of the Company and to set its dividend payout target.

This news release also contains references to Debt-to-EBITDA, a non-GAAP ratio which utilizes adjusted EBITDA as one of its components. Debt-to-EBITDA is used as a liquidity measure to indicate the amount of adjusted earnings to pay debt, as calculated on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), before covering interest, tax, depreciation and amortization.

Reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios to comparable GAAP measures are not available due to the challenges and impracticability of estimating certain items, particularly certain contingent liabilities and non-cash unrealized derivative fair value losses and gains subject to market variability. Because of those challenges, a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios is not available without unreasonable effort.

Our non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios described above are not measures that have standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are not U.S. GAAP measures. Therefore, these measures may not be comparable with similar measures presented by other issuers.

The tables below provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures.
