Executive Overview and Business Update

2025 Guidance

Based on results through the first half of 2025 and the outlook for the remainder of the year, Pembina has updated its 2025 adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $4.225 billion to $4.425 billion (previously $4.2 billion to $4.5 billion). Further, due to seasonal and asset specific factors, Pembina expects third quarter results to be largely consistent with second quarter results, with stronger results expected in the fourth quarter.

In addition to the year-to-date results, the 2025 guidance range reflects the following:

• Pembina continues to benefit from rising utilization throughout its conventional pipeline and gas processing assets that aligns with volume growth across the WCSB. However, in 2025, revenue volume growth at these assets is expected to be lower than physical volume growth as customers expand into their contractual take-or-pay commitments;

• typical seasonality positively impacting Alliance in the fourth quarter due to the ability to transport higher volumes during colder periods, offset by the impact of the previously announced settlement agreement with shippers;

• higher integrity and geotechnical costs on the conventional pipeline assets in the third and fourth quarters, relative to the first half of the year;

• a higher contribution from PGI in the second half of 2025, compared to the first half of the year, including at the Dawson Assets, due to third-party restrictions impacting the first half of the year and the start-up of LNG Canada benefiting the second half of the year, and at the Duvernay Complex due to higher second half volumes; and

• stronger fourth quarter contribution from the natural gas liquids ("NGL") marketing business, relative to the second and third quarters, due to typical seasonality of the WCSB frac spread business.

Business Fundamentals Remain Strong

Given the relative strength of the WCSB plays, combined with other recent and emerging developments, Pembina maintains its outlook for low to mid-single digit annual volume growth through the end of the decade across all WCSB products.

• Strong Economics and Long Inventory Lives - the Montney formation is expected to be one of the primary drivers of WCSB growth and has among the lowest supply costs in North America. Additionally, top tier oil sands producers demonstrate break-even costs that are in line with top performing U.S. shale plays, and are expected to continue pursuing debottleneck expansions that, in addition to increasing oil production, would drive increased demand for condensate. Further, these plays have some of the longest Tier 1 inventory lives in North America, at greater than 20 years assuming WTI oil prices of US$50.

• Producer Resilience - Canadian producers are proving resilient despite volatility in commodity prices and the broader economy and Pembina has observed that its customers’ development plans remain on track. Further, ongoing consolidation of upstream producers continues to support greater efficiency, more competitive platforms, and stronger counterparties, which Pembina believes leads to more sustainable production growth.

• New Egress - The recent start-up of LNG Canada, the future Cedar LNG Project and other currently approved LNG projects, are expected to contribute to natural gas production growth of approximately five billion cubic feet per day and NGL production growth of approximately 250,000 bpd by 2030. Growing Alberta regional gas demand, including to power potential data centres, as well as new petrochemical facilities and new or expanded NGL export facilities are all expected to further contribute to natural gas and NGL production growth. Finally, Pembina estimates that up to 600,000 bpd of new oil egress could come from brownfield expansions of existing oil pipelines by 2030, further supporting oil production growth and associated condensate demand.

• Supportive Policy Environment - Pembina has observed a shift in tone from policy makers which could positively impact how the Canadian energy industry evolves. At the federal level, in particular with support from Bill C-5 One Canadian Economy Act, there is momentum building towards reshaping Canada’s energy strategy in a way that could unlock Canada’s abundant and diverse energy resources. At the provincial level, the Alberta government continues to be supportive of conventional energy development, encourage federal regulatory reform, and create a constructive investment environment for energy-related industries, including petrochemicals and data centres.

Pembina’s Differentiated Business is Built to Lead

Pembina is the only Canadian energy infrastructure company with an integrated value chain providing a full suite of midstream and transportation services across all commodities - natural gas, NGL (ethane, propane and butane), condensate, and crude oil. Additionally, Pembina’s scope, scale, and access to premium North American and global markets, differentiate the Company and uniquely position it to capture incremental new volumes in the WCSB, while unlocking new avenues for sustainable growth beyond its strong legacy businesses.

Pembina believes it has captured significant future WCSB growth through recent recontracting successes and long-term dedications across high growth areas such as the northeast British Columbia and Alberta Montney, and Duvernay formations. Through strategic investments, long-term partnerships, and premier infrastructure, Pembina is demonstrating it is the clear choice for producers looking to process, move, fractionate, and export their products.

Supported by the following recent developments and current and proposed future projects, Pembina is confident in its ability to maintain and grow its position in the rapidly developing WCSB:

Strengthening Pembina’s Propane Export Capabilities

Through a new commercial agreement and a newly sanctioned project, Pembina will have access to 50,000 bpd of highly competitive export capacity to premium price markets, including in Asia, for its own and customers’ propane.

• Pembina has approved an optimization of the PRT facility (the "PRT Optimization"), primarily through increasing storage capacity, that will allow PRT to accommodate Medium Gas Carrier vessels. The PRT Optimization is expected to expand access to additional markets with higher realized propane prices, while significantly reducing shipping costs per unit, thereby improving netbacks for Pembina and its customers. This project strengthens Pembina’s position as a key propane exporter from Canada’s West Coast, ensures the long-term competitiveness of PRT through efficiencies and margin enhancement, and is an example of supporting incremental value creation for Canadian energy products without the need for a major capital expansion. The PRT Optimization is expected to cost $145 million with an in-service date in mid-2028.

• As previously disclosed, Pembina has also entered into a long-term tolling agreement with AltaGas for 30,000 bpd of LPG export capacity at AltaGas’ current RIPET and future REEF facilities. Under the agreement, Pembina will have export capacity of 20,000 bpd starting in April 2026, and an additional 10,000 bpd starting in April 2027. This agreement ensures a highly competitive export outlet that further enhances market diversification for Pembina and its customers.

Partner of Choice

Pembina and PGI continue to strengthen their relationships with leading WCSB producers and develop mutually beneficial solutions that support growing production while providing PGI with take-or-pay commitments that ensure the long-term utilization of its assets.

• Effective June 30, 2025, PGI acquired, from Whitecap, the remaining 8.33 percent interest in three gas processing trains and a sales gas pipeline (the "Duvernay Assets") at PGI’s Duvernay Complex for a total purchase price of $55 million ($33 million net to Pembina). Concurrent with the purchase and sale of the Duvernay Assets, Whitecap has entered into a long-term take-or-pay commitment for firm service at the Duvernay Complex and extended long-term take-or-pay agreements previously in place at PGI’s KA Plant.

• PGI has entered into an agreement with a Montney producer to fund and acquire an under-construction battery and additional infrastructure (the "North Gold Creek Battery") in the Wapiti/North Gold Creek Montney area for a capital commitment up to $150 million ($90 million net to Pembina). The project enhances PGI’s footprint in the Wapiti region, connecting directly into PGI's existing Wapiti Gas Plant. The North Gold Creek Battery will be operated by the producer and highly contracted under a long-term, take-or-pay agreement. The expected in-service date of the North Gold Creek Battery is the second quarter of 2026.

Growing Demand for Transportation Service

Pembina continues to advance more than $1 billion of conventional NGL and condensate pipeline expansions to reliably and cost-effectively meet rising transportation demand from growing production in the WCSB. Pembina’s outlook for volume growth is secured by long-term contracts underpinned by take-or-pay agreements, areas of dedication across the Montney and Duvernay formations, and other long-term agreements that ensure a strong base of committed volumes.

• Taylor-to-Gordondale Project - a new approximately 89 kilometer, 16-inch pipeline proposed by Pouce Coupé Pipe Line Ltd. (a subsidiary of Pembina) connecting mostly condensate volumes from Taylor, British Columbia to the Gordondale, Alberta area. Engineering activities are continuing and subject to regulatory and board approval, Pembina expects to move forward with this expansion. A FID is anticipated in the first quarter of 2026.

• Fox Creek-to-Namao Expansion - an expansion of the Peace Pipeline system that through the addition of new pump stations would add approximately 70,000 bpd of propane-plus capacity to the market delivery pipelines from Fox Creek, Alberta to Namao, Alberta. Engineering and regulatory activities are progressing and subject to regulatory and board approval, Pembina expects to move forward with this expansion. A FID is expected by the end of 2025.

• Pembina is also evaluating and engineering further expansions to support volume growth in northeast British Columbia, including new pipelines and terminal upgrades.

Cedar LNG Milestone Reached

The US$4 billion (gross) Cedar LNG Project continues to progress according to plan and remains on budget and on time with an expected in-service date in late 2028.

• Pembina and its partner, the Haisla Nation, recently celebrated the achievement of a major milestone for the project as construction of the floating LNG vessel began with steel cutting on both the top side facilities and the vessel hull. Onshore activities are continuing and marine terminal clearing, drainage, and erosion and sediment control work have been completed. Additionally, pipeline right of way clearing and road upgrades have been completed, and pipeline access and grading construction are progressing as planned.

• Pembina continues to progress remarketing of its 1.5 million tonnes per annum of Cedar LNG Project capacity to third parties. The market for LNG supply on the West Coast of North America remains strong. Pembina is advancing definitive agreement negotiations with an expectation to finalize these efforts by the end of 2025.

Leading Ethane Supplier

Within Pembina’s fully integrated, all-commodity value chain, its ethane-plus NGL business stands out and ensures Pembina is well positioned to build upon its position as the leading supplier of ethane to a growing Alberta petrochemical industry.

• Pembina is working closely with Dow Chemicals Canada ("Dow") following their recent announcement of a delay in construction of their Path2Zero petrochemical project and is evaluating the various options available to meet its commitment under the mutually binding 50,000 bpd ethane supply agreement with Dow. Pembina is seeking to fulfill its commitment in the most capital efficient manner possible and achieve maximum benefit for both parties. Engineering and commercial discussions are ongoing related to the addition of a de-ethanizer tower at RFS III within the Redwater Complex and a FID is anticipated by the end of 2025.

Supporting a Potential New Alberta-based Data Centre Industry

Pembina continues to advance opportunities to provide integrated solutions in support of an emerging Alberta-based data centre industry, while leveraging its existing and future value chain.

• Greenlight Electricity Centre Limited Partnership ("Greenlight"), a partnership between Pembina and Kineticor, an OPTrust portfolio company, is developing an up to 1,800 MW gas-fired combined cycle power generation facility (the "Greenlight Electricity Centre"). Greenlight is in active discussions with a data center customer to commercially underpin the project. Greenlight also successfully advanced through Phase 1 of the Alberta Electric System Operator allocation process and through subsequent commercial efforts has secured a sufficient megawatt allocation to achieve a viable scale for this project.
  
  
  
  In addition to the opportunity to invest in long-term contracted power infrastructure with investment grade counterparties, Pembina is well positioned to leverage its existing and future value chain to further support this project. The proximity of Alliance Pipeline offers a potential accretive expansion opportunity to provide significant natural gas supply to the Greenlight Electricity Centre, and the potential future development of the Alberta Carbon Grid may provide a future emissions reduction solution.

Industry-Leading Capital Execution

Pembina continues to demonstrate its ability to deliver capital projects that provide strong returns and a competitive service offering. Furthering its track record of industry-leading project execution, Pembina is pleased that the RFS IV project is trending approximately five percent under the previous cost estimate with a revised expected total cost of approximately $500 million. Engineering, procurement, and fabrication are substantially complete, while field construction has progressed to approximately 50 percent complete. Pembina continues to expect RFS IV to be in service on time in the first half of 2026. On a cost per barrel of capacity basis, Pembina is on track to deliver its expansion 15-20 percent lower than competing projects currently underway, highlighting Pembina’s advantaged service offering.

2025 Capital Investment

Based on progress on a number of key core business initiatives, as well as two tuck-in acquisitions at PGI, Pembina has revised its outlook for the Company's 2025 capital investment program, including capital expenditures and contributions to equity accounted investees, to $1.3 billion (previously $1.1 billion). The revised 2025 capital program reflects continued progression of proposed conventional pipeline expansions, approval of the PRT Optimization, and higher contributions to PGI, primarily related to PGI's acquisition of the remaining interest in the Duvernay Assets and funding of the North Gold Creek Battery.

Financial & Operational Highlights

Adjusted EBITDA

Pembina reported quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $1,013 million in the second quarter, representing a $78 million or seven percent decrease over the same period in the prior year.

Pipelines reported adjusted EBITDA of $646 million for the second quarter, representing a $9 million or one percent decrease compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting the net impact of the following factors:

• lower firm tolls on the Cochin Pipeline, due to recontracting in July 2024;
• lower revenue at the Edmonton Terminals largely related to the decommissioning of the Edmonton South Rail Terminal in the second quarter of 2024;
• lower interruptible volumes and lower tolls on the Vantage Pipeline;
• higher volumes on Peace Pipeline system due to higher contracted volumes and fewer outages compared to the prior period, which was impacted by planned outages related to the Phase VIII Peace Pipeline Expansion;
• higher revenue on the Peace Pipeline system due to increased tolls mainly related to contractual inflation adjustments;
• higher demand on seasonal contracts on Alliance; and
• higher contracted volumes on the Nipisi Pipeline.

Facilities reported adjusted EBITDA of $331 million for the second quarter, representing a $9 million or three percent decrease over the same period in the prior year, reflecting the net impact of the following factors:

• lower volumes due to planned outages at certain PGI assets and on-going third-party restrictions impacting the Dawson assets; and
• higher contribution from PGI, primarily related to recent transactions with Whitecap.

Marketing & New Ventures reported adjusted EBITDA of $74 million for the second quarter, representing a $69 million or 48 percent decrease compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting the net impact of the following factors:

• lower net revenue due to a decrease in NGL margins as a result of lower butane and propane prices, coupled with lower volumes resulting from third-party restrictions at the Channahon Facility and planned outages at both the Channahon Facility and Redwater Complex, as well as higher input natural gas prices at Aux Sable; and
• lower realized gains on crude oil-based derivatives, partially offset by lower realized losses on NGL-based derivatives.

Corporate reported adjusted EBITDA of negative $38 million for the second quarter, representing a $9 million or 19 percent increase compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily reflecting lower long-term incentive costs, driven by the change in Pembina's share price in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Earnings

Pembina reported second quarter earnings of $417 million, representing a $62 million or 13 percent decrease over the same period in the prior year.

Pipelines had earnings in the second quarter of $473 million, representing a $12 million or two percent decrease over the prior period. The decrease was primarily due to the same factors impacting adjusted EBITDA, as noted above.

Facilities had earnings in the second quarter of $142 million, representing a $39 million or 22 percent decrease over the prior period. In addition to the factors impacting adjusted EBITDA, as noted above, the change in earnings was due to costs associated with an asset retirement at the Redwater Complex and lower share of profit from PGI. The lower share of profit from PGI was primarily driven by higher depreciation expense and unrealized losses on commodity-related derivatives compared to unrealized gains in the prior period, partially offset by unrealized gains on interest rate derivative financial instruments compared to unrealized losses in the prior period.

Marketing & New Ventures had earnings in the second quarter of $114 million, representing a $21 million or 16 percent decrease over the prior period. In addition to the factors impacting adjusted EBITDA, as noted above, the change in earnings was due to lower other income due to no similar gain to that recognized in the second quarter of 2024 related to Pembina's financial assurances assumed by Cedar LNG upon a positive FID. This was partially offset by unrealized gains on commodity related derivatives compared to losses in the second quarter of 2024, as well as an increase in share of profit from Cedar LNG.

In addition to the changes in earnings for each division discussed above, the change in the second quarter earnings compared to the prior period was due to lower acquisition and integration costs and lower incentive costs, partially offset by no similar net gain on acquisition to that recognized in the second quarter of 2024.

Quarterly Common Share Dividend

Pembina's board of directors has declared a common share cash dividend for the third quarter of 2025 of $0.71 per share, to be paid, subject to applicable law, on September 29, 2025, to shareholders of record on September 15, 2025. The common share dividends are designated as "eligible dividends" for Canadian income tax purposes. For non-resident shareholders, Pembina's common share dividends should be considered "qualified dividends" and may be subject to Canadian withholding tax.

For shareholders receiving their common share dividends in U.S. funds, the cash dividend is expected to be approximately U.S.$0.5165 per share (before deduction of any applicable Canadian withholding tax) based on a currency exchange rate of 0.7275. The actual U.S. dollar dividend will depend on the Canadian/U.S. dollar exchange rate on the payment date and will be subject to applicable withholding taxes.

Quarterly dividend payments are expected to be made on the last business day of March, June, September and December to shareholders of record on the 15th day of the corresponding month, if, as and when declared by the board of directors. Should the record date fall on a weekend or on a statutory holiday, the record date will be the next succeeding business day following the weekend or statutory holiday.

Except as otherwise described herein, these non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios are calculated on a consistent basis from period to period. Specific reconciling items may only be relevant in certain periods.

Below is a description of each non-GAAP financial measure and non-GAAP ratio disclosed in this news release, together with, as applicable, disclosure of the most directly comparable financial measure that is determined in accordance with GAAP to which each non-GAAP financial measure relates and a quantitative reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to such directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Additional information relating to such non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, including disclosure of the composition of each non-GAAP financial measure and non-GAAP ratio, an explanation of how each non-GAAP financial measure and non-GAAP ratio provides useful information to investors and the additional purposes, if any, for which management uses each non-GAAP financial measure and non-GAAP ratio; an explanation of the reason for any change in the label or composition of each non-GAAP financial measure and non-GAAP ratio from what was previously disclosed; and a description of any significant difference between forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures and the equivalent historical non-GAAP financial measures, is contained in the "Non-GAAP & Other Financial Measures" section of the management's discussion and analysis of Pembina dated August 7, 2025 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (the "MD&A"), which information is incorporated by reference in this news release. The MD&A is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, EDGAR at www.sec.gov and Pembina's website at www.pembina.com.

Net Revenue

Net revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure which is defined as total revenue less cost of goods. The most directly comparable financial measure to net revenue that is determined in accordance with GAAP and disclosed in Pembina's financial statements is revenue.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated as earnings before net finance costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (included in gross profit and general and administrative expense), and unrealized gains or losses from derivative instruments. The exclusion of unrealized gains or losses from derivative instruments eliminates the non-cash impact of such gains or losses.

Adjusted EBITDA also includes adjustments to earnings for non-controlling interest, losses (gains) on disposal of assets, transaction costs incurred in respect of acquisitions, dispositions and restructuring, impairment charges or reversals in respect of goodwill, intangible assets, investments in equity accounted investees and property, plant and equipment, certain non-cash provisions and other amounts not reflective of ongoing operations. These additional adjustments are made to exclude various non-cash and other items that are not reflective of ongoing operations. Following completion of Pembina acquiring a controlling ownership interest in Alliance and Aux Sable on April 1, 2024, Pembina revised the definition of adjusted EBITDA to deduct earnings for the 14.6 percent non-controlling interest in the Aux Sable U.S. operations. Pembina's subsequent acquisition of the remaining interest in Aux Sable's U.S. operations in the third quarter of 2024 resulted in all of Aux Sable's results being included in the adjusted EBITDA calculation beginning on August 1, 2024.

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors as it is an important indicator of Pembina's ability to generate liquidity through cash flow from operating activities and equity accounted investees. Management also believes that adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of operating income generated from capital expenditures, which includes operational finance income and gains from lessor lease arrangements. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by investors and analysts for assessing financial performance and for the purpose of valuing Pembina, including calculating financial and leverage ratios. Management utilizes adjusted EBITDA to set objectives and as a key performance indicator of the Company's success. Pembina presents adjusted EBITDA as management believes it is a measure frequently used by analysts, investors and other stakeholders in evaluating the Company's financial performance. The most directly comparable financial measure to adjusted EBITDA that is specified, defined and determined in accordance with GAAP and disclosed in Pembina's financial statements is earnings.

Adjusted EBITDA from Equity Accounted Investees

In accordance with IFRS, Pembina's joint ventures are accounted for using equity accounting. Under equity accounting, the assets and liabilities of the investment are presented net in a single line item in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, "Investments in Equity Accounted Investees". Earnings from investments in equity accounted investees are recognized in a single line item in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income "Share of Profit from Equity Accounted Investees". The adjustments made to earnings, in adjusted EBITDA above, are also made to share of profit from investments in equity accounted investees. Cash contributions and distributions from investments in equity accounted investees represent Pembina's share paid and received in the period to and from the investments in equity accounted investees.

To assist in understanding and evaluating the performance of these investments, Pembina is supplementing the IFRS disclosure with non-GAAP proportionate consolidation of Pembina's interest in the investments in equity accounted investees. Pembina's proportionate interest in equity accounted investees has been included in adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities and Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities per Common Share

Adjusted cash flow from operating activities is a non-GAAP measure which is defined as cash flow from operating activities adjusting for the change in non-cash operating working capital, adjusting for current tax and share-based compensation payments, and deducting distributions to non-controlling interests and preferred share dividends paid. Adjusted cash flow from operating activities deducts distributions to non-controlling interest and preferred share dividends paid because they are not attributable to common shareholders. The calculation has been modified to exclude current tax expense and accrued share-based payment expense, and to include the impact of cash paid for taxes and share-based compensation, as it allows management to better assess the obligations discussed below.

Management believes that adjusted cash flow from operating activities provides comparable information to investors for assessing financial performance during each reporting period. Management utilizes adjusted cash flow from operating activities to set objectives and as a key performance indicator of the Company's ability to meet interest obligations, dividend payments and other commitments. Adjusted cash flow from operating activities per common share is a non-GAAP financial ratio which is calculated by dividing adjusted cash flow from operating activities by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Following completion of Pembina acquiring a controlling ownership interest in Alliance and Aux Sable on April 1, 2024, Pembina revised the definition of adjusted cash flow from operating activities to deduct distributions related to non-controlling interest in the Aux Sable U.S. operations. On August 1, 2024, Pembina acquired the remaining interest in Aux Sable's U.S. operations.
