NON-GAAP (GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES) FINANCIAL MEASURES:

ONEOK has disclosed in this news release adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA), a non-GAAP financial metric used to measure the company’s financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income adjusted for interest expense, depreciation and amortization, noncash impairment charges, income taxes, noncash compensation expense, and other noncash items; and includes adjusted EBITDA from the company’s unconsolidated affiliates using the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in net earnings from investments. Adjusted EBITDA from unconsolidated affiliates is calculated consistently with the definition above and excludes items such as interest expense, depreciation and amortization, income taxes and other noncash items.

Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it and similar measures are used by many companies in the industry as a measure of financial performance and is commonly employed by financial analysts and others to evaluate ONEOK’s financial performance and to compare the company’s financial performance with the performance of other companies within the industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

This non-GAAP financial measure excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income. Additionally, this calculation may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA is included in the tables available on ONEOK’s website.

  • the impact of scrutiny and conflicting stakeholder expectations regarding ESG issues, including climate change, and risks associated with the physical and financial impacts of climate change; • risks associated with operational hazards and unforeseen interruptions at our operations; • the inability of insurance proceeds to cover all liabilities or incurred costs and losses, or lost earnings, resulting from a loss; • the risk of increased costs for insurance premiums or less favorable coverage; • demand for our services and products in the proximity of our facilities; • risks associated with our ability to hedge against commodity price risks or interest rate risks; • a breach of information security, including a cybersecurity attack, or failure of one or more key information technology or operational systems, and terrorist attacks, including cyber sabotage; • exposure to construction risk and supply risks if adequate natural gas, NGL, refined products and crude oil supply is unavailable upon completion of facilities; • the accuracy of estimates of hydrocarbon reserves, which could result in lower than anticipated volumes; • our lack of ownership over all of the land on which our property is located and certain of our facilities and equipment; • the impact of changes in estimation, type of commodity and other factors on our measurement adjustments; • excess capacity on our pipelines, processing, fractionation, terminal and storage assets; • risks associated with the period of time our assets have been in service; • our partial reliance on cash distributions from our unconsolidated affiliates on our operating cash flows; • our ability to cause our joint ventures to take or not take certain actions unless some or all of our joint-venture participants agree; • our reliance on others to construct and/or operate certain joint-venture assets and to provide other services; • our ability to use net operating losses and certain tax attributes; • increased regulation of exploration and production activities, including hydraulic fracturing, well setbacks and disposal of wastewater; • impacts of regulatory oversight and potential penalties on our business;
