Q2 2026 Tidewater Midstream and Infrastructure Ltd Earnings Call Transcript
Key Points
- Record HDRD complex throughput of 3,315 barrels per day, achieving 111% utilization rate, driven by low-cost debottlenecking initiatives and flawless reliability.
- Record adjusted EBITDA of $56 million for Tidewater Renewables, supported by record margins on renewable diesel sales at US import parity pricing and an additional $0.16 per liter from the biofuels production incentive.
- Executed contribution agreement with Natural Resources Canada for the biofuels production incentive, securing total funding in line with full annual production capacity and expecting $13.8 million in Q3 2026 cash contributions.
- Strong refining macro environment with Prince George crack spread averaging $118 per barrel in Q2 2026, a 16% increase from Q1, and additional hedges for 2027 at prices significantly above mid-cycle and 2026 realized hedge pricing.
- Consolidated net debt decreased by $44.4 million in Q2, bringing debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio to 1.7 times, within the target range of 1.2 to 2.5 times, and increased full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance by 20% to $230-$250 million.
- Prince George Refinery throughput averaged 10,032 barrels per day in Q2 due to a planned 17-day partial facility outage for maintenance, reducing overall production.
- BRC gas processing throughput decreased 8% quarter-over-quarter to 105 million cubic feet per day due to NGTL curtailments, also reducing fractionation facility utilization to 76% from 90%.
- Ram River Gas Plant remains temporarily curtailed, with only sulfur handling operations continuing, limiting midstream revenue generation.
- Realized losses on crack spread hedges partially offset stronger crack spreads at the Prince George refinery, impacting net financial performance.
- SAF project FID is contingent on regulatory environment improvements, including targeted amendments from ECCC and other program support, which are not yet finalized, creating uncertainty for the $1.2 billion project.
