Stalk&Barrel Whisky Named Official Partner of Golf Canada

Stalk&Barrel Whisky Named Official Partner of Golf Canada

Cision Canada02-06-2025
Proudly Poured for the Fairway: A Partnership Toasting Canadian Golf
TORONTO, June 2, 2025 /CNW/ - Stalk&Barrel Whisky and Golf Canada are raising a glass to Canadian sport and spirits. The Ontario-based distillery has renewed its role as the Official Canadian Whisky of Golf Canada, cementing its presence at Canada's premier tournaments: the RBC Canadian Open and CPKC Women's Open.
This partnership brings together two proudly Canadian institutions as golf in Canada booms. With six million players hitting the fairways annually, rising TV viewership, and homegrown talent on the PGA and LPGA Tours, Stalk&Barrel's continued investment is a celebration of the game's momentum and the communities behind it.
"With Canadian TV audiences for the Masters on the rise and a record seven Canadians teeing up at THE PLAYERS, Canadian golf has never been stronger," said Karen Lai Drake, Senior Brand Manager, at Stalk&Barrel Whisky. "The partnership is a celebration of Canadian excellence - on the green and in the glass - and we're proud to be a part of it."
The partnership draws a natural parallel between golf and whisky - both rooted in heritage, refined in craft, and built around moments that bring people together. From post-round toasts at the clubhouse to quiet pours at home, Stalk&Barrel is becoming a staple for Canadian golf.
At both National Opens, the brand will have an on-site presence with signage, broadcast integrations, and whisky tastings. Off the course, a content-first campaign - including social coverage, storytelling, and influencer collaborations - will amplify the brand's presence and deepen its connection with golf fans online.
Stalk&Barrel's focus on craft and cultural alignment reflects a broader shift in the Canadian beverage space. With over $14 billion in annual golf-related consumer spending - on par with the domestic beer market - there is a growing appetite for alternatives at the 19th hole. Stalk&Barrel's small-batch roots and Canadian identity make it uniquely positioned to lead that charge.

Total Energy Services Inc. Announces Q2 2025 Results

CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Total Energy Services Inc. ('Total Energy' or the 'Company') (TSX:TOT) announces its consolidated financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Financial Highlights ($000's except per share data, unaudited) Notes 1 through 4 please refer to the Notes to the Financial Highlights set forth at the end of this release. nm – calculation not meaningful Total Energy's financial results for the second quarter of 2025 represent record second quarter results. A substantial increase in Australian drilling and service rig activity, continued strong North American demand for compression and process equipment and improved performance from Canadian well servicing more than offset a substantial decline in United States drilling and completion activity and a modest decline in Canadian drilling activity. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW Contract Drilling Services ('CDS') (1) See Note 1 of the Notes to the Financial Highlights set forth at the end of this release. (2) Operating days includes drilling and paid standby days. Second quarter CDS segment activity was modestly lower in 2025 compared to 2024 due to a substantial decline in U.S. activity, an extended spring shutdown in Canada and the loss of market share in more competitive areas of the Canadian market. The decline in North American operating days was offset by a significant increase in Australian activity following the acquisition of Saxon in March of 2024 and the reactivation of several upgraded drilling rigs following such acquisition. The year over year increase in second quarter Australian revenue per operating day reflects the addition of Saxon's deeper drilling rig fleet which receives higher day rates as well as increased rates received for upgraded drilling rigs. Rentals and Transportation Services ('RTS') (1) See Note 1 of the Notes to the Financial Highlights set forth at the end of this release. RTS segment revenue and revenue per utilized piece of equipment both decreased for the second quarter of 2025 compared to 2024 due to the mix of equipment operating and lower industry activity. Second quarter segment EBITDA decreased in 2025 compared to the prior year due to the change in the mix of equipment operating and lower equipment utilization. Partially offsetting the decline in U.S. activity was the acquisition of 280 major pieces of rental equipment located in Oklahoma on June 10, 2025. Compression and Process Services ('CPS') (1) See Note 1 of the Notes to the Financial Highlights set forth at the end of this release. (2) Rental equipment utilization is measured on a horsepower basis. 2025 second quarter CPS segment revenue was higher compared to 2024 due to increased fabrication sales and parts and service activity in both Canada and the U.S. that was partially offset by lower compression rental fleet utilization. Efficiencies arising from higher production levels contributed to the year-over-year increase in second quarter segment EBITDA and EBITDA margin. Sequentially, the quarter end fabrication sales backlog increased by $38.5 million, or 15%, from the $265.4 million backlog at March 31, 2025. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW Well Servicing ('WS') (1) See Note 1 of the Notes to the Financial Highlights set forth at the end of this release. (2) Service hours is defined as well servicing hours of service provided to customers and includes paid rig move and standby. (3) T he Company reports its service rig utilization for its operational service rigs in North America based on service hours of 3,650 per rig per year to reflect standard 10 hour operations per day. Utilization for the Company's service rigs in Australia is calculated based on service hours of 8,760 per rig per year to reflect standard 24 hour operations. Second quarter WS segment revenue increased in 2025 as compared to 2024 due to increased activity in Australia and Canada following the reactivation of several upgraded service rigs that offset a substantial decline in U.S. activity. Segment EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 was higher compared to the prior year due to increased Australian and Canadian activity and higher pricing realized in Australia for upgraded service rigs. Corporate During the second quarter of 2025, Total Energy continued to execute on its 2025 capital expenditure program and pursuit of attractive acquisition opportunities. $26.3 million of capital expenditures were made during the second quarter that related primarily to the upgrade of drilling and service rigs in Australia and Canada and the acquisition of rental equipment in the U.S. To June 30, 2025, $60.8 million of capital expenditures were funded, including approximately $16.6 million of capital commitments carried forward from 2024 and the acquisition of 280 pieces of rental equipment located in Oklahoma on June 10, 2025 for $9.0 million. Following the repayment of a $40.4 million mortgage loan that matured on April 29, 2025, Total Energy exited the second quarter of 2025 with $111.8 million of positive working capital, including $34.2 million of cash, and $75.0 million of available credit under its $175 million of revolving bank credit facilities. The weighted average interest rate on the Company's outstanding bank debt at June 30, 2025 was 4.49%. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW $17.0 million was returned to shareholders during the first half of 2025 with the payment of $7.2 million of dividends and the repurchase of $9.8 million of shares under the Company's normal course issuer bid. $10.9 million of bank debt was also repaid during this period. Outlook Oil prices remained relatively weak during the second quarter of 2025 as a result of significant global economic uncertainty. Such uncertainty continues to impair North American drilling and completion activity levels, particularly in the United States. Offsetting such weakness is continued strong North American demand for compression and process equipment and stable Australian industry conditions. The CPS segment's record $303.9 million fabrication sales backlog at June 30, 2025 provides visibility into 2026. Total Energy's Board of Directors has approved a $19.5 million increase to the Company's 2025 capital expenditure budget to $102.4 million. This increase is directed primarily towards the expansion of the CPS segment's United States compression fabrication capacity. The planned expansion will increase the Company's U.S. plant capacity by at least 75% and is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2027. In addition, an idle Australian service rig will be upgraded and put into service by the end of the first quarter of 2026 under a minimum 12 month contract. Including this increase, approximately 70% of the Company's 2025 capital budget is targeting growth opportunities. Total Energy intends to finance the remaining $58.2 million of 2025 capital expenditure commitments with cash on hand and cashflow. Conference Call At 9:00 a.m. (Mountain Time) on August 6, 2025 Total Energy will conduct a conference call and webcast to discuss its second quarter financial results.

EBITDA is not a recognized measure under IFRS.

Readers should be cautioned, however, that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of Total Energy's performance. Total Energy's method of calculating EBITDA may differ from other organizations and, accordingly, EBITDA may not be comparable to measures used by other organizations. (2) Working capital equals current assets minus current liabilities. (3) Net Debt equals long-term debt plus lease liabilities plus current liabilities minus current assets.

Parkland Reports 2025 Second Quarter Results

Demonstrates strength and run rate potential of Parkland's diversified business Advancing the Sunoco Transaction 2 CALGARY, AB, Aug. 5, 2025 /CNW/ - Parkland Corporation ("Parkland", "we", the "Company", or "our") (TSX: PKI), today announced its financial and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. "I want to thank the Parkland team for safely serving our customers to deliver record second quarter results," said Bob Espey, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our Canadian and International businesses continue to demonstrate strength and resilience, while strong supply optimization coupled with solid operations at the Burnaby refinery enabled us to capture above mid-cycle refining margins. These results reflect the run rate potential of Parkland's integrated platform and together with Sunoco, the combined scale is well positioned to grow cash flow for years to come." Q2 2025 Highlights Delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $508 million, as compared to $504 million in Q2 2024, primarily driven by strong operations and margins at the Burnaby Refinery and robust performance in the Canada segment. These were partially offset by lower fuel unit margins in the International segment and continued softness in the USA segment primarily due to ongoing macroeconomic pressures. Net earnings of $172 million ($0.99 per share, basic), as compared to $70 million ($0.40 per share, basic) in Q2 2024, and Adjusted earnings 3 of $158 million ($0.91 per share, basic 3), as compared to $156 million ($0.89 per share, basic) in Q2 2024. Trailing twelve months ("TTM") Available cash flow 3 of $551 million ($3.17 per share 3), as compared to $823 million ($4.69 per share) in 2024, primarily reflecting a significantly lower refining margin environment during the second half of 2024 and realized losses due to the wind down of California compliance market positions in the first quarter of 2025. TTM Cash generated from (used in) operating activities 4 of $1,656 million ($9.52 per share 4), as compared to $1,612 million ($9.19 per share) in 2024, reflecting favourable working capital movements in the current period. Leverage Ratio 5 decreased to 3.4 times (3.6 times in Q4 2024) and liquidity available 4 of approximately $2.2 billion. Parkland's total recordable injury frequency rate 6 on a TTM basis was 1.15, compared to 1.21 in Q2 2024, reflecting the Parkland team's continued focus on operational integrity. Q2 2025 Segment Highlights Canada delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $190 million, as compared to $168 million in Q2 2024. The increase was primarily driven by stronger fuel unit margins from continued price and supply optimization, and volume growth in our company-owned network. We delivered company same-store volume growth ("Company SSVG") 6 of 4.6 percent and Food and Company C-Store same-store sales growth ("Food and Company C-Store SSSG") 3 excluding cigarettes of 4.2 percent, reflecting stronger site execution, and increased engagement though our loyalty program. International delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $168 million, as compared to $180 million in Q2 2024. Continued strength in the retail business was more than offset by lower unit margins driven by market instability from global conflicts resulting in price volatility, particularly in diesel. USA delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $26 million, as compared to $47 million in Q2 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower fuel unit margins due to an ongoing competitive pricing environment and reduced rail and regional arbitrage opportunities. Lower retail volumes, consumer spending, and foot traffic in convenience stores were consistent with broader industry trends. Refining delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $136 million, as compared to $119 million in Q2 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher refining margins combined with strong composite utilization 6 of 94.0 percent. Update on the Sunoco Transaction Parkland shareholders approved the Sunoco Transaction at the June 24, 2025 Annual and Special Meeting, with more than 93 percent of votes cast in favour. Following this strong shareholder endorsement, Parkland received a final order from the Court of King's Bench of Alberta's approval and the parties have obtained Competition Act (Canada) clearance. The Sunoco Transaction continues to advance through the remaining regulatory review processes and other closing conditions, including the ongoing review under the Investment Canada Act, and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025. The Company will terminate its Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP") effective August 6, 2025. The DRIP has been suspended since November 2, 2022. 2025 Guidance Following strong second quarter 2025 operating and financial results, Parkland remains on track to be within its previously stated 2025 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance 4 range of $1,800 to $2,100 million and 2025 Capital Expenditure Guidance 4 range of $475 to $525 million. Due to expected transaction-related costs and certain restrictions associated with the Sunoco Transaction, and to simplify external guidance, Parkland will no longer provide updates with respect to its 2025 Available cash flow per share, 2025 Leverage Ratio, non-core asset divestment program from 2023 to 2025 and 2025 Adjusted EBITDA for its Refining segment.

Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements contained herein constitute forward-looking information and statements (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). When used the words "expect", "will", "could", "would", "believe", "continue", "pursue" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, this news release contains forward-looking statements with respect to, among other things: business strategies, objectives and initiatives; run rate potential of Parkland's integrated platform; Parkland and Sunoco well positioned to grow cash flow for years to come; the Sunoco Transaction, including progress of regulatory approvals and other closing conditions and expectation to close in the fourth quarter of 2025; expected costs relating to the Sunoco Transaction; expected to remain on track to be within its 2025 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance and 2025 Capital Expenditure Guidance ranges; and the termination of the DRIP and timing thereof. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this news release should not be unduly relied upon. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this news release. Parkland does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as required by securities law. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of numerous risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to: the completion of the Sunoco Transaction, including the ability to obtain the approvals required in connection thereto, the timing thereof and realizing the benefits resulting therefrom; Parkland's ability to successfully integrate its operations with Sunoco following the Sunoco Transaction; general economic, market and business conditions; micro and macroeconomic trends and conditions, including increases in interest rates, inflation, imposition of tariffs and fluctuating commodity prices; Parkland's ability to execute its business objectives, projects and strategies, including the completion, financing and timing thereof, realizing the benefits therefrom, meeting our targets, outlook and commitments relating thereto, and the impact of the Sunoco Transaction thereon; ability to fall within its 2025 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance and 2025 Capital Expenditure Guidance ranges and the assumptions relating thereto; and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Parkland and the assumptions and risks described in "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors" included in Parkland's most recently filed Annual Information Form, and in "Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors" in the Q4 2024 MD&A, each as filed on SEDAR+ and available on the Parkland website at In addition, the 2025 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance reflects continued integration of acquired businesses and synergy capture, and progression of organic growth initiatives, and key material assumptions include: market trends in line with Parkland's current expectations; expected performance from Parkland's retail and commercial lines of business during the 2025 financial year that is consistent with the prior year; Burnaby Refinery composite utilization of 90 to 95% based on the Burnaby Refinery's crude processing capacity of 55,000 bpd, and completion of planned maintenance, including deferral of the previously planned turnaround to 2026; and implementation of ongoing cost reductions across the business. The 2025 Capital Expenditure Guidance is mainly driven by increased Adjusted EBITDA and assumes no material change to underlying operations and no planned turnaround at the Burnaby Refinery. The forward-looking statements contained in this news release as expressly qualified by these cautionary statements. Specified Financial Measures This news release contains total of segments measures, non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP financial ratios, supplementary financial measures and capital management measures (collectively, "specified financial measures"). Parkland's management uses certain specified financial measures to analyze the operating and financial performance, leverage, and liquidity of the business. These specified financial measures do not have any standardized meaning under International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards") and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The specified financial measures should not be considered in isolation or used in substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards. See Section 15 of the Q2 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated by reference into this news release, for further details regarding specified financial measures used by Parkland. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios Adjusted earnings (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share is a non-GAAP financial ratio, each representing the underlying core operating performance of business activities of Parkland at a consolidated level. The most directly comparable financial measure to Adjusted earnings (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share is Net earnings (loss). Adjusted earnings (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share represent how well Parkland's operational business is performing, while considering depreciation and amortization, interest on leases and long-term debt, accretion and other finance costs, and income taxes. The Company uses these measures because it believes that Adjusted earnings (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share are useful for management and investors in assessing the Company's overall performance, as they exclude certain items that are not reflective of the Company's underlying business operations. See Section 15 of the Q2 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated by reference into this news release, for the detailed definition and composition of Adjusted earnings (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share. Please see below for the reconciliation of Adjusted earnings (loss) to net earnings (loss) and the calculation of Adjusted earnings (loss) per share. (1) Other adjusting items for the three months ended June 30, 2025 include: (i) realized gains and losses on risk management and other assets and liabilities related to underlying physical sales activity in another period of $12 million loss (2024 - $1 million loss); (ii) the share of depreciation, income taxes and other adjustments for investments in joint ventures and associates of $8 million (2024 - $3 million); (iii) other income of $1 million (2024 - $3 million); (iv)adjustment to foreign exchange gains and losses related to cash pooling arrangements of $4 million (2024 - $2 million); and (v) adjustment to realized risk management gains related to interest rate swaps, as these gains do not relate to commodity sale and purchase transactions, of nil (2024 - $1 million). Other adjusting items for the six months ended June 30, 2025 include: (i) realized gains and losses on risk management and other assets and liabilities related to underlying physical sales activity in another period of $1 million gain (2024 - $12 million loss); (ii) the share of depreciation, income taxes and other adjustments for investments in joint ventures and associates of $13 million (2024 - $7 million) (iii) other income of $3 million (2024 - $5 million); (iv) adjustment to foreign exchange gains and losses related to cash pooling arrangements of $4 million (2024 - $4 million); and (v) adjustment to realized risk management gains related to interest rate swaps, as these gains do not relate to commodity sale and purchase transactions, of nil (2024 - $2 million gain). For comparative purposes, certain amounts were reclassified between realized and unrealized gain/(loss) on risk management with no changes to Adjusted EBITDA or net earnings, to conform to the presentation used in the current period. (2) The tax normalization adjustment was applied to net earnings (loss) adjusting items that were considered temporary differences, such as acquisition, integration and other costs, unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, unrealized gains and losses on risk management and other, gains and losses on asset disposals, changes in fair value of redemption options, changes in estimates of environmental provisions, loss on inventory write-downs for which there are offsetting associated risk management derivatives with unrealized gains, impairments of non-current assets and strategic transaction costs. The tax impact was estimated using the effective tax rates applicable to jurisdictions where the related items occur. (3) Weighted average number of common shares is calculated in accordance with Parkland's accounting policy contained in Note 2 of the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. (4) For comparative purposes, certain amounts were reclassified between realized and unrealized gain/(loss) on risk management with no changes to Adjusted earnings (loss) to conform to the presentation used in the current period. Available cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and Available cash flow per share is a non-GAAP financial ratio. The most directly comparable financial measure for Available cash flow and Available cash flow per share is cash generated from (used in) operating activities. Parkland uses these measures to set targets (including annual guidance and variable compensation target) and monitor its ability to generate cash flow for capital allocation, including distributions to shareholders, investment in the growth of the business, and deleveraging. See Section 15 of the Q2 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated by reference into this news release, for the detailed definition and composition of Available cash flow and Available cash flow per share. See the following table for a calculation of historical Available cash flow and Available cash flow per share and a reconciliation to cash generated from (used in) operating activities.

(2) Weighted average number of common shares is calculated in accordance with Parkland's accounting policy contained in Note 2 of the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. ROIC is a non-GAAP financial ratio. The measure is calculated as a ratio of Net operating profit after tax ("NOPAT") divided by average invested capital. NOPAT describes the profitability of Parkland's base operations, excluding the impact of leverage and certain other items of income and expenditure that are not considered representative of Parkland's underlying core operating performance. NOPAT is based on Adjusted EBITDA, defined in the "Measures of Segment Profit (Loss) and Total of Segments Measures" section of this news release, less depreciation and amortization expense, including pro-forma depreciation on assets classified as held for sale, and the estimated tax expense using the expected average tax rate estimated using statutory tax rates in each jurisdiction where Parkland operates. Average invested capital is the amount of capital deployed by Parkland that represents the average of opening and closing debt, including debt liabilities classified as held for sale, as well as shareholder's equity, including equity reserves, net of cash and cash equivalents. We use this non-GAAP measure to assess Parkland's efficiency in investing capital.

(2) For comparative purposes, certain amounts were reclassified between realized and unrealized gain/(loss) on risk management for the three months ended March 31, 2024, with no changes to Adjusted EBITDA. Food and Company C-Store SSSG is a non-GAAP financial ratio and refers to the period-over-period sales growth generated by retail food and convenience stores at the same Company sites. The effects of opening and closing stores, temporary closures (including closures for On the Run / Marché Express conversions), expansions of stores, renovations of stores, and stores with changes in food service models in the period are excluded to derive a comparable same-store metric. Same-store sales growth is a metric commonly used in the retail industry that provides meaningful information to investors in assessing the health and strength of Parkland's brands and retail network, which ultimately impacts financial performance. The most directly comparable financial measure to Food and Company C-Store SSSG is food and convenience store revenue within sales and operating revenue. Below is a reconciliation of convenience store revenue (Food and C-Store revenue) for the Canada segment with the Food and Company C-Store same store sales ("SSS"), and the calculation of the Food and Company C-Store SSSG. (1) Percentages are calculated based on actual amounts and are impacted by rounding. (2) POS values used to calculate Food and Company C-Store SSSG are not a Parkland financial measure and do not form part of Parkland's consolidated financial statements as Parkland earns rental income from retailers in the form of a percentage rent on convenience store sales. POS values are calculated based on the information obtained from Parkland's POS systems at retail sites, including transactional data, such as sales, costs and volumes, which are subject to internal controls over financial reporting. We also use this data to calculate rental income from retailers in the form of a percentage rent on convenience store sales, which is recorded as revenue in our consolidated financial statements. (3) Includes rental income from retailers in the form of a percentage rent on Food and Company C-Store sales, royalty, and franchisee fees and excludes revenues from automated teller machines, POS system licensing fees, and other. (4) This adjustment excludes the effects of acquisitions, opening and closing stores, temporary closures (including closures for On the Run / Marché Express conversions), expansions of stores, renovations of stores, and stores with changes in food service models, to derive a comparable same-store metric. (5) Excludes sales from acquisitions completed within the year as these will not impact the metric until after the completion of one year of the acquisitions when the sales or volume generated establishes the baseline for these metrics. These non-GAAP financial measures and ratios should not be considered in isolation or used in substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Except as otherwise indicated, these non-GAAP financial measures and ratios are calculated and disclosed on a consistent basis from period to period. See Section 15 of the Q2 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated by reference into this news release, for further details regarding Parkland's non-GAAP financial measures and ratios. Capital Management Measures Parkland's primary capital management measure is the Leverage Ratio, which is used internally by key management personnel to monitor Parkland's overall financial strength, capital structure flexibility, and ability to service debt and meet current and future commitments. In order to manage its financing requirements, Parkland may adjust capital spending or dividends paid to shareholders or issue new shares or new debt. The Leverage Ratio is calculated as a ratio of Leverage Debt to Leverage EBITDA and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS Accounting Standards. It is, therefore, unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The detailed calculation of the Leverage Ratio is as follows: ($ millions, unless otherwise noted) June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Leverage Debt 4,979 5,268 Leverage EBITDA 1,468 1,481 Leverage Ratio 3.4 3.6 ($ millions, unless otherwise noted) June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Long-term debt 6,465 6,641 Less: Lease obligations (1,104) (1,054) Cash and cash equivalents (439) (385) Non-recourse debt (1) (55) (30) Risk management liability (asset) (2) 1 (30) Add: Non-recourse cash (1) 35 31 Letters of credit and other 76 95 Leverage Debt 4,979 5,268 (1) Represents non-recourse debt and non-recourse cash balance related to project financing. (2) Represents the risk management asset/liability associated with the spot element of the cross-currency swap designated in a cash flow hedge relationship to hedge the variability of principal cash flows of the 2024 Senior Notes resulting from changes in the spot exchange rates. Three months ended Trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2025 ($ millions, unless otherwise noted) September 30, 2024 December 31, 2024 March 31, 2025 June 30, 2025 Adjusted EBITDA 431 428 375 508 1,742 Share incentive compensation 6 11 8 7 32 Reverse: IFRS 16 impact (1) (84) (91) (93) (90) (358) 353 348 290 425 1,416 Acquisition pro-forma adjustment (2) 6 Other adjustments (3) 46 Leverage EBITDA 1,468 (1) Includes the impact of operating leases prior to the adoption of IFRS 16, previously recognized under operating costs, which aligns with management's view of the impact of earnings. (2) Includes the impact of pro-forma pre-acquisition EBITDA estimates based on anticipated benefits, costs and synergies from acquisitions. (3) Includes adjustments to normalize Adjusted EBITDA for non-recurring events relating to the unplanned shutdown at the Burnaby Refinery, and the EBITDA attributable to EV charging operations financed through non-recourse project financing. Three months ended Trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2024 ($ millions, unless otherwise noted) March 31, 2024 June 30, 2024 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2024 Adjusted EBITDA 327 504 431 428 1,690 Share incentive compensation 6 8 6 11 31 Reverse: IFRS 16 impact (1) (83) (80) (84) (91) (338) 250 432 353 348 1,383 Acquisition pro-forma adjustment (2) 11 Other adjustments (3) 87 Leverage EBITDA 1,481 (1) Includes the impact of operating leases prior to the adoption of IFRS 16, previously recognized under operating costs, which aligns with management's view of the impact of earnings. (2) Includes the impact of pro-forma pre-acquisition EBITDA estimates based on anticipated benefits, costs and systems from acquisitions. (3) Includes adjustments to normalize Adjusted EBITDA for non-recurring events relating to the unplanned shutdowns at the Burnaby Refinery and the EBITDA attributable to EV charging operations financed through non recourse project financing. Measures of Segment Profit (Loss) and Total of Segments Measures Adjusted earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") is a measure of segment profit (loss) and its aggregate is a total of segments measure used by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resource allocation to the segment and to assess its performance. In accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, adjustments and eliminations made in preparing an entity's financial statements and allocations of revenue, expenses, and gains or losses shall be included in determining reported segment profit (loss) only if they are included in the measure of the segment's profit (loss) that is used by the chief operating decision maker. As such, Parkland's Adjusted EBITDA is unlikely to be comparable to measures of segment profit (loss) presented by other issuers, who may calculate these measures differently. Parkland views Adjusted EBITDA as the key measure for the underlying core operating performance of business segment activities at an operational level. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to set targets for Parkland (including annual guidance and variable compensation targets) and is used to determine Parkland's ability to service debt, finance capital expenditures and provide for dividend payments to shareholders. See Section 15 of the Q2 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated by reference into this news release, for the detailed definition and composition of Adjusted EBITDA. Refer to the table below for the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (loss), which is the most directly comparable financial measure, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024. (1) Total of segments measure. See Section 15 of the Q2 MD&A. (2) Other (gains) and losses for the three months ended June 30, 2025, include: (i) $55 million non-cash valuation gain (2024 - $11 million loss) due to change in fair value of redemption options; (ii) $8 million non-cash valuation gain (2024 - $12 million gain) due to the change in estimates of environmental provisions; (iii) $3 million (2024 - $3 million) in other income; (iv) $3 million gain (2024 - $1 million gain) on disposal of assets; and (v) $1 million gain (2024 -$4 million loss) in others. Other (gains) and losses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, include: (i) $76 million non-cash valuation gain (2024 - $24 million loss) due to change in fair value of redemption options; (ii) $7 million (2024 - $5 million) in other income; (iii) $4 million non-cash valuation gain (2024 - $16 million gain) due to the change in estimates of environmental provisions; (iv) $2 million gain (2024 - $3 million gain) on disposal of assets; and (v) nil (2024 -$9 million loss) in others. (3) Other adjusting items for the three months ended June 30, 2025, include: (i) realized gains and losses on risk management and other assets and liabilities related to underlying physical sales activity in another period of $12 million loss (2024 - $1 million loss); (ii) the share of depreciation, income taxes and other adjustments for investments in joint ventures and associates of $8 million (2024 - $3 million); (iii) adjustment to foreign exchange loss related to cash pooling arrangements of $4 million (2024 - $2 million); (iv) other income of $1 million (2024 - $3 million); and (v) realized risk management gains related to interest rate swaps, as these gains do not relate to commodity sale and purchase transactions, of nil (2024 -$1 million gain). Other adjusting items for the six months ended June 30, 2025, include: (i) the share of depreciation, income taxes and other adjustments for investments in joint ventures and associates of $13 million (2024 - $7 million); (ii) adjustment to foreign exchange losses related to cash pooling arrangements of $4 million (2024 - $4 million); (iii) other income of $3 million (2024 - $5 million); (iv) realized gains and losses on risk management and other assets and liabilities related to underlying physical sales activity in another period of $1 million gain (2024 - $12 million loss); (v) realized risk management gains related to interest rate swaps, as these gains do not relate to commodity sale and purchase transactions, of nil (2024 -$2 million gain). (4) For comparative purposes, certain amounts were reclassified between realized and unrealized gain/(loss) on risk management for the six months ended June 30, 2024, with no changes to Net earnings (loss). Supplementary Financial Measures Parkland uses a number of supplementary financial measures, including TTM Cash generated from (used in) operating activities, TTM Cash generated from (used in) operating activities per share, liquidity available and Adjusted EBITDA Guidance and Capital Expenditure Guidance, to evaluate the success of our strategic objectives. These measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers, as other issuers may calculate these measures differently. See Section 15 of the Q2 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated by reference into this news release, for further details regarding supplementary financial measures used by Parkland, including the composition of such measures. Non-Financial Measures Parkland uses a number of non-financial measures, including Company SSVG, composite utilization and total recordable injury frequency rate, to measure the success of our strategic objectives and to set variable compensation targets for employees, where applicable. These non-financial measures are not accounting measures, do not have comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measures, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers, as other issuers may calculate these metrics differently. See Section 15 of the Q2 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated by reference into this news release, for further details on the non-financial measures used by Parkland.
