Financial Results:

• Income from continuing operations for the second quarter of Fiscal 2026 of $29.8 million, compared to income from continuing operations of $7.5 million for the second quarter of Fiscal 2025
• Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations⁽¹⁾ for the second quarter of Fiscal 2026 of $167.3 million, compared to $149.4 million for the second quarter of Fiscal 2025

• In the prior 60 days we have executed contracts for over 500,000 barrels per day of produced water for disposal. This has resulted in additional growth capital

Guidance Update:

“This has been an outstanding quarter for NGL with success on multiple initiatives that we believe will ultimately increase value to our Unitholders. Our current Water Solutions business continues to outperform and is experiencing accelerated growth.

On the heels of the momentum, we are projecting Fiscal 2027 Adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ in excess of $700 million,” stated Mike Krimbill NGL’s CEO.

Quarterly Results of Operations

The following table summarizes the unaudited operating income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations⁽¹⁾ by reportable segment for the periods indicated:

Water Solutions

Operating income for the Water Solutions segment increased by $19.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The increase was due primarily to higher disposal revenues due to an increase in produced water volumes processed from contracted customers and increased water pipeline revenue due to the LEX II pipeline commencing operations during the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The Partnership processed approximately 2.80 million barrels of produced water per day during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, a 4.5% increase when compared to approximately 2.68 million barrels of water per day processed during the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Revenues from recovered skim oil, including the impact from realized skim oil hedges, totaled $28.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $0.7 million from the prior year period. The increase was due primarily to an increase in skim oil barrels sold due to more skim oil recovered from receiving more produced water, partially offset by lower realized crude oil prices received from the sale of skim oil barrels.

Operating expenses in the Water Solutions segment increased $2.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024 due primarily to higher royalty expense due to volumes related to the LEX II pipeline commencing operations and increased volumes at certain other saltwater disposal wells, higher repairs and maintenance expense due to timing of repairs and higher utilities expense due to increased produced water volumes processed, partially offset by lower chemical expense due to purchasing fewer chemicals and using chemicals more efficiently and lower bad debt expense. Operating expense per produced barrel processed was $0.22 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0.22 in the comparative quarter last year.

There was also a loss on the disposal or impairment of assets of $5.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to a loss on the disposal or impairment of assets of $2.0 million in the prior year period.

Crude Oil Logistics

Operating income for the Crude Oil Logistics segment decreased by $6.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The decrease is due primarily to reduced gains on derivatives that hedge our physical product. During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, physical volumes on the Grand Mesa Pipeline averaged approximately 72,000 barrels per day, compared to approximately 63,000 barrels per day for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Liquids Logistics

Operating income for the Liquids Logistics segment increased by $3.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024. This increase was due primarily to lower expenses related to the sale of our Wholesale Propane business and 17 natural gas liquid terminals and increased margins due primarily to lower losses on derivatives that hedge our physical product. The increase was offset by lower service revenue due to the expiration of a throughput contract in the prior fiscal year.

Capitalization and Liquidity

Total liquidity (cash plus available capacity on our asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL Facility”)) was approximately $359.1 million as of September 30, 2025. Borrowings on the Partnership’s ABL Facility totaled approximately $71.0 million as of September 30, 2025, as we built butane inventory for the blending season.

The Partnership is in compliance with all of its debt covenants and has no upcoming debt maturities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to NGL Energy Partners LP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, revaluation of liabilities and other. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, income from continuing operations before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. We believe that EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our ability to make quarterly distributions to our unitholders and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our financial performance without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as we define them, may not be comparable to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures used by other entities.

For purposes of our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, we make a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is open, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, we reverse the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss and record a realized gain or loss.

Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA minus maintenance capital expenditures, income tax expense, cash interest expense, preferred unit distributions paid and other. Maintenance capital expenditures represent capital expenditures necessary to maintain the Partnership’s operating capacity. Distributable Cash Flow is a performance metric used by senior management to compare cash flows generated by the Partnership (excluding growth capital expenditures and prior to the establishment of any retained cash reserves by the board of directors of our general partner) to the cash distributions expected to be paid to unitholders. Using this metric, management can quickly compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned cash distributions. This financial measure also is important to investors as an indicator of whether the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain, or support an increase in, quarterly distribution rates. Actual distribution amounts are set by the board of directors of our general partner.

We do not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis where we are unable to provide a meaningful calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measure that have not yet occurred, are out of the Partnership’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements.” All statements other than statements of historical facts included or incorporated herein may constitute forward-looking statements. Actual results could vary significantly from those expressed or implied in such statements and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. While NGL believes such forward-looking statements are reasonable, NGL cannot assure they will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that affect operations, financial performance, and other factors as discussed in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other factors that could impact any forward-looking statements are those risks described in NGL’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other public filings. You are urged to carefully review and consider the cautionary statements and other disclosures made in those filings, specifically those under the heading “Risk Factors.” NGL undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as required by law.

NGL provides Adjusted EBITDA guidance that does not include certain charges and costs, which in future periods are generally expected to be similar to the kinds of charges and costs excluded from Adjusted EBITDA in prior periods, such as income taxes, interest and other non-operating items, depreciation and amortization, net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, acquisition expense, revaluation of liabilities and items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring. The exclusion of these charges and costs in future periods will have a significant impact on the Partnership’s Adjusted EBITDA, and the Partnership is not able to provide a reconciliation of its Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss) without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs and the Partnership believes that such reconciliation, if possible, would imply a degree of precision that would be potentially confusing or misleading to investors.
