Insights
The 2024 results reveal Enbridge's exceptional execution across multiple strategic initiatives. The 13% EBITDA growth to $18.6B significantly outpaced expectations, driven by both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. The integration of $19B worth of U.S. gas utilities positions Enbridge as North America's largest natural gas utility franchise, providing highly predictable regulated returns and growth opportunities.
The company's financial health remains robust despite the major acquisition. While the Debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 5.0x is temporarily elevated, management expects this to normalize toward the midpoint of their 4.5-5.0x target range in 2025 as they capture full-year EBITDA contributions from the acquisitions. This demonstrates prudent balance sheet management during a transformative period.
Strategic positioning has notably strengthened through several key developments. The $8B in newly sanctioned projects spans critical infrastructure needs, including the Tennessee Ridgeline expansion and strategic Permian Basin investments. The letter of intent with the Alberta government for pipeline expansion opportunities signals strong governmental support for infrastructure development and positions Enbridge to capture growing export volumes.
The company's utility operations are showing particular promise. The gas distribution business provides a stable foundation with regulated returns, while new projects like the Moriah Energy Center and T15 Reliability Project demonstrate the segment's growth potential. These investments directly address the increasing role of natural gas in power generation and grid reliability.
Looking ahead, Enbridge's 2025 guidance of $19.4B-$20.0B in adjusted EBITDA appears well-supported by contracted assets and regulated returns. The company's ability to self-fund its $26B secured growth backlog through $8-9B annual investable capacity demonstrates financial flexibility and reduces reliance on external capital markets.

"In Renewable Power, we capitalized on decreasing solar panel costs and strong demand for renewable Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) and sanctioned ~1,200 net MW across three projects, all backed by long-term PPAs with Amazon, AT&T and Toyota. All of this capacity is expected to be fully in-service in 2026, with over 200 MW already operating. Short construction windows and favorable tax incentives are enabling Enbridge to put highly efficient capital to work to deliver attractive quick-cycle returns. We also continued our track record of regularly recycling capital and announced the sale of our interest in East West Tie Line at a multiple of 17x enterprise value-to-EBITDA (2024).
"Looking ahead, we'll continue to adhere to our long-held capital allocation priorities. A strong balance sheet, growing shareholder returns, and capital discipline govern each strategic decision. Our scale and diversification, in combination with our incumbent footprint and low-risk business model, continue to provide competitive advantages as demand for all forms of North American energy reaches new heights. We'll continue to equity-self fund attractive risk-adjusted conventional and renewable projects. These efforts collectively position the Company for long-term success, making Enbridge a first-choice investment."

Gas Distribution: Enbridge Gas Ontario Rebasing Phase 2 Update
On November 29, 2024, the OEB issued its Decision approving the Phase 2 Partial Settlement Proposal and accompanying Rate Order that allows for the recovery of 2024 impacts resulting from the Phase 2 settlement through a rate rider that will be effective throughout 2025, and for the establishment of interim 2025 rates effective January 1, 2025.
The Phase 2 Partial Settlement Proposal establishes a harmonized storage cost allocation methodology, the level of Dawn to Corunna Project costs to be included in regulated rates, and cost recovery for utility services provided for unregulated Enbridge Sustain activities. In addition, the Phase 2 Partial Settlement Proposal establishes a price cap incentive regulation rate setting mechanism to be used for establishing rates for 2025 to 2028. Interim 2025 rates approved as part of the Rate Order reflect application of this mechanism.
Issues not addressed as part of the Phase 2 Settlement Proposal include an intervenor proposal to decouple revenues from customer numbers, the appropriate meter reading performance metric, and the terms for including renewable natural gas as part of gas supply. 2024 and 2025 rates have been classified as interim pending the OEB decision on outstanding Phase 2 issues and the resolution of the Notice of Appeal and Amended Notice of Motion on Phase 1. Enbridge expects a decision on the Phase 2 unresolved issues in the first half of 2025.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
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'', ''expect'', ''project'', 'estimate'', ''forecast'', ''plan'', ''intend'', ''target'', ''believe'', "likely" 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: Enbridge's corporate vision and strategy, including our strategic priorities and outlook; 2024 financial guidance and near term outlook, including projected DCF per share and adjusted EBITDA and expected growth thereof; expected dividends, dividend growth and dividend policy; the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions of three natural gas utilities from Dominion Energy, Inc. (the Acquisitions) and the expected integration thereof; 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; 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 and flexibility; financing costs and plans, including with respect to the Acquisitions and our equity self-funding model; expectations on leverage, including Debt-to EBITDA ratio; sources of liquidity and sufficiency of financial resources; expected in-service dates and costs related to announced projects and projects under construction; capital allocation framework and priorities; impact of weather and seasonality; expected future growth and expansion opportunities, including secured growth program, development opportunities, customer growth, and lower carbon opportunities and strategy, including with respect to the projects; expected closings, benefits, accretion and timing of transactions, including with respect to the agreement to sell our interest in the East-West Tie Limited Partnership; expected future actions and decisions of regulators and courts and the timing and impact thereof; and toll and rate case discussions and filings, including with respect to Enbridge Gas Inc. rebasing phase 2, and anticipated timing and impact 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 and demand for crude oil, natural gas, NGL, LNG, RNG and renewable energy; prices of crude oil, natural gas, NGL, LNG, RNG and renewable energy; anticipated utilization of our assets; exchange rates; inflation; interest rates; 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, toll and rate applications; anticipated in-service dates; weather; announced and potential acquisition, disposition and other corporate transactions and projects and the timing and benefits thereof; governmental legislation; litigation; credit ratings; 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; and 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 and interest rates 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; the timing and closing of acquisitions, dispositions and other transactions and the realization of anticipated benefits therefrom; 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; regulatory parameters and decisions; litigation; acquisitions and dispositions and other transactions, and the realization of anticipated benefits therefrom, including the Acquisitions; project approval and support; renewals of rights-of-way; weather; economic and competitive conditions; global geopolitical conditions; political decisions; public opinion; dividend policy; changes in tax laws and tax rates; exchange rates; interest rates; inflation; commodity prices; and supply of and demand for commodities, including but not limited to those risks and uncertainties discussed in this news release and in Enbridge's other filings with Canadian and

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS APPENDICES
This news release contains references to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per common share 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 and 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, 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
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
The tables below provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures.
