BIPC Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation

Brookfield Infrastructure (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN) today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

“Our base business generated strong results in the second quarter, benefiting from the ongoing economic recovery,” said Sam Pollock, Chief Executive Officer of Brookfield Infrastructure. “The recent completion of several large capital recycling initiatives has provided enhanced liquidity to support our robust pipeline of new investments. We are well-positioned to sustain our momentum into the second half of the year as market conditions are favorable for our business.”

Brookfield reported net income of $352 million ($0.61 per unit) for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to a loss of $61 million (loss of $0.25 per unit) in the prior year. Net income for the current period benefited from strong organic growth, the contribution from new investments and the recognition of gains on the sale of our Canadian district energy business and smart meter portfolio. These positive factors were partially offset by an increase in future U.K. tax rates which led to the recognition of a non-recurring deferred tax expense of approximately $100 million in the current period.

Funds from Operations (or FFO) of $394 million for the quarter reflects an 18% increase compared to the same period last year. Results were supported by strong growth from our base business, contributions from new investments and higher volumes attributable to the continued economic rebound. Excluding the recovery of shutdown-related volume declines in the prior year, organic growth was 9%. This solid level of growth includes inflationary tariff increases and the commissioning of approximately $900 million in new capital projects during the last 12 months. Inclusive of the recovery of both connections income at our U.K. regulated distribution business and toll road traffic, our base business grew by 16% relative to the prior year. These positive factors were partially offset by the impact of asset sales completed in the last year, which have resulted in nearly $2 billion of proceeds. As we deploy that capital at higher returns, it should accelerate our earnings base.

Segment Performance

The utilities segment generated FFO of $190 million, an improvement of 21% over the prior year. All businesses within the segment continue to perform well in the current environment, with results reflecting 10% organic growth due to inflation indexation and the commissioning of almost $400 million into rate base during the past year. Results also benefited from the acquisition of the remaining interest in our Brazilian regulated gas transmission operation. These contributions were partially offset by the impact of asset sales as part of our capital recycling program.

FFO for the transport segment was $173 million, an increase of 36% compared to the prior year. On a same-store basis, segment results grew by 26% as the economic expansion is propelling higher volumes in our business. Operations with volume sensitivity are seeing strong year-over-year increases and continue to build momentum for the second half of 2021. Further, transport FFO benefited from contributions from our U.S. LNG export terminal investment that closed in September 2020, somewhat offset by the partial sale of our Australian export terminal.

FFO for the midstream segment totaled $60 million, an increase of 14% from the prior year on a same-store basis. Results for the quarter reflect strong gas transportation volumes, as well as the commissioning of the second phase of the Gulf Coast expansion project, both at our U.S. gas pipeline. Results were offset by the previously announced sale of a 12.5% stake in the pipeline, which was completed in March.

The data segment recorded FFO of $60 million, which was 40% higher than the prior year. This increase was primarily due to the contribution from the Indian telecom business acquired last year, as well as organic growth supported by the build-to-suit tower and fiber-to-the-home programs at our French telecom operation.

Update on Strategic Initiatives

We completed or advanced several important initiatives in, and subsequent to, the second quarter of 2021:

1. North American District Energy Business – The divestment of our Canadian and U.S. district energy platforms closed in June and July, respectively, and resulted in aggregate proceeds to Brookfield Infrastructure of approximately $1.0 billion.
2. Inter Pipeline Ltd. – We have made significant progress with our bid to acquire IPL. On July 27th, IPL’s Board of Directors formally recommended that existing shareholders accept our offer. This follows the termination of the proposed transaction with another company, and recommendations from two leading independent proxy advisors to vote against this competing transaction. We now expect a clear path to acquire the company, with the tender offer expiring tomorrow, August 6th. Based on conversations to date with many IPL shareholders, we are confident that we will progress with the privatization and look forward to deploying approximately $2 billion (BIP’s share) in this essential midstream operation.
3. India Data Centers Portfolio – In July, we announced a joint venture with Digital Realty to develop and operate data centers in India. Our intention is to replicate our successful partnership in Latin America, where we have jointly developed nine data centers since 2019.

Distribution and Dividend Declaration

The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.51 per unit, payable on September 29, 2021 to unitholders of record as at the close of business on August 31, 2021. This distribution represents a 5% increase compared to the prior year. The regular quarterly dividends on the Cumulative Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units, Series 1, Series 3, Series 5, Series 7, Series 9, Series 11, Series 13 and Series 14 have also been declared, as well as the dividend for BIP Investment Corporation Senior Preferred Shares, Series 1. In conjunction with the Partnership’s distribution declaration, the Board of Directors of BIPC has declared an equivalent quarterly dividend of $0.51 per share, also payable on September 29, 2021 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on August 31, 2021.

Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation ReportsSecond Quarter 2021 Results

The Board of Directors of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation (“BIPC” or our “company”) (NYSE, TSX: BIPC) today has declared a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.51 per class A exchangeable subordinate voting share of BIPC (a “Share”), payable on September 29, 2021 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on August 31, 2021. This dividend is identical in amount per Share and has identical record and payment dates to the quarterly distribution announced today by BIP on its units.

The Shares of BIPC are structured with the intention of being economically equivalent to the non-voting limited partnership units of Brookfield Infrastructure Partnership L.P. (“BIP” or the “Partnership”) (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN). We believe economic equivalence is achieved through identical dividends and distributions on the Shares and BIP’s units and each Share being exchangeable at the option of the holder for one BIP unit at any time. Given the economic equivalence, we expect that the market price of the Shares will be significantly impacted by the market price of BIP’s units and the combined business performance of our company and BIP as a whole. In addition to carefully considering the disclosure made in this news release in its entirety, shareholders are strongly encouraged to carefully review BIP’s letter to unitholders, supplemental information and its other continuous disclosure filings. BIP’s letter to unitholders and supplemental information are available at www.brookfield.com/infrastructure. Copies of the Partnership’s continuous disclosure filings are available electronically on EDGAR on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Results

The net income and Funds from Operations1 (FFO) of BIPC are captured in the Partnership’s financial statements and results.

Net income, after adjusting for the revaluation of and dividends paid on our Shares that are classified as liabilities under IFRS, was $83 million for the quarter. This represents an increase of approximately $90 million over the prior year as our earnings reflect the contribution from capital commissioned into rate base and inflationary tariff increase. The current period also benefited from a gain recognized on the sale of a smart meter portfolio at our U.K. regulated distribution business. These positive impacts were partially offset by an increase in future U.K. tax rates which resulted in the recognition of a non-recurring deferred tax expense of approximately $80 million during the quarter.

Our business generated FFO of $118 million for the quarter, representing a 31% increase compared to the same period of the prior year. FFO in the current quarter benefited from inflationary-indexation and additions to rate base, as well as the acquisition of an additional interest in our Brazilian regulated gas transmission business. These positive factors were partially offset by the loss of earnings associated with the sale of our portfolio of smart meters in the U.K.
