TC Energy reports strong second quarter 2025 operating and financial results

Press Release

CALGARY, Alberta, July 31, 2025 TC Energy Corporation (TSX, NYSE: TRP) (TC Energy or the Company) released its second quarter results today. François Poirier, TC Energy’s President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “Our commitment to safety and operational excellence continues to drive strong reliability, availability and financial performance, and we now expect our 2025 comparable EBITDA¹ outlook to be higher, in the range of $10.8 to $11.0 billion.” Poirier continued, “Compelling fundamentals are unlocking further growth opportunities across our North American portfolio. To meet this unprecedented demand, we have announced $4.5 billion of new growth projects over the past nine months, including requests for incremental capacity on projects already announced — a trend we’re seeing on several projects currently in development. Our focus on project execution is also delivering tangible results and we expect to place approximately $8.5 billion of capital projects into service this year, on time and are tracking approximately 15 per cent below budget. We remain highly confident in our disciplined strategy and our ability to capture high-value, low-risk opportunities across North America that drive long-term shareholder value.”

CEO Message
Through the first half of 2025, TC Energy safely and reliably delivered energy across North America, maximizing asset value through safety and operational excellence. Despite the volatility in commodity markets and a complex macroeconomic backdrop, our business continues to demonstrate resiliency, achieving 12 per cent growth in comparable EBITDA and 13 per cent growth in segmented earnings compared to second quarter 2024. Driven by strong performance and focused execution, we now expect our 2025 comparable EBITDA outlook to be higher, in the range of $10.8 to $11.0 billion, compared to the original outlook of $10.7 to $10.9 billion. We continue to advance our strategic priorities – executing a selective portfolio of growth projects, maintaining financial strength and agility, while maximizing the value of our assets through safety and operational excellence. Our performance continues to underscore the strength of our business model and our ability to consistently deliver solid growth, low risk and repeatable performance. TC Energy’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly common share dividend of $0.85 per common share for the quarter ending September 30, 2025, equivalent to $3.40 per common share on an annualized basis.

Following the completion of the Southeast Gateway pipeline on schedule and under budget in the second quarter, we commenced the collection of tolls from the CFE beginning May 2025. This event represents a significant operational and financial milestone, and an important step for Mexico’s energy landscape and economic development. The Southeast Gateway pipeline is a transformative infrastructure project – serving as a critical artery for delivering natural gas to underserved regions in Southeast Mexico, driving economic growth and energy security while supporting the country’s transition to lower-emitting, more reliable sources of energy. In July, the newly constituted Comisión Nacional de Energía (CNE) approved our regulated rates required to provide service to potential future interruptible service users on the Southeast Gateway pipeline other than the CFE.

As part of our ongoing efforts to maximize the value of our assets, on July 1, 2025, Columbia Gas notified FERC that it has reached a settlement-in-principle on the Columbia Gas Section 4 Rate Case. Columbia Gas expects the final settlement to include an increase relative to pre-filed rates, subject to revision following completion and approval of settlement terms, which we anticipate in fourth quarter 2025. This outcome on our second-largest pipeline asset demonstrates our ongoing commitment to enhance system integrity and service reliability while ensuring timely capital recovery to maximize our long-term cash flow profile.

We continue to execute our growth projects on-time and are tracking 15 per cent below budget on approximately $8.5 billion of assets expected to be placed into service this year. Year to date, we have placed into service approximately $5.8 billion of natural gas pipeline capacity projects, including the Southeast Gateway pipeline. In May, we successfully placed the East Lateral XPress (ELXP) project into service. As a strategic expansion of the Columbia Gulf Transmission system, ELXP delivers approximately 0.7 Bcf/d of firm natural gas capacity directly to Venture Global’s Plaquemines LNG terminal in Louisiana, reinforcing our role in enabling reliable, long-term energy supply to global markets.

Fundamentals continue to drive significant growth opportunities for the incremental build-out of natural gas infrastructure across LNG export, coal-to-gas conversions, data centre demand and LDC reliability. Reflecting this momentum, we reached a positive FID on $0.4 billion of expansion facilities as part of MYGP; a program comprised of multiple distinct projects with targeted in-service dates between 2027 and 2030, subject to final company and regulatory approvals. Once complete, MYGP is expected to enable approximately 1.0 Bcf/d of incremental system throughput – further enhancing our ability to connect natural gas supply from competitive, low-cost basins to critical demand markets across North America. Additionally, we have upsized capacity on our previously announced Maysville and Pulaski projects. In aggregate, over the past nine months we have announced $4.5 billion of new capital projects, each underpinned by long-term take or pay contracts with strong counterparties and delivering a weighted average build multiple⁵ in the 5-7 times range. Our origination pipeline remains robust, with both the volume and scale of opportunities continuing to grow. We are seeing increased demand across multiple end-use sectors, with customers seeking additional capacity to upsize their projects. We believe this trend reflects strong underlying market fundamentals and reinforces our confidence in the long-term need for safe, reliable and affordable natural gas infrastructure.

Looking ahead, we have clear visibility into a steady cadence of project announcements in the second half of 2025 and into 2026. Maintaining commitment to our annual net capital expenditure range of $6.0 to $7.0 billion, the majority of incremental capital is expected to be allocated toward the latter part of the decade. Our strategy remains centred on advancing low-risk, brownfield projects, underpinned by long-term contracts with strong counterparties, delivering attractive build multiples. This disciplined approach supports organic comparable EBITDA growth, underpins our three to five per cent annual dividend growth target, and enables ongoing deleveraging as we manage to our long-term target of 4.75 times debt-to-EBITDA⁶ ratio. These efforts collectively reinforce our commitment to sustainable, long-term value creation for shareholders.

Finally, we released our 2025 Report on Sustainability. The report reaffirms TC Energy’s role in a collective effort to advance a lower-emissions energy system and demonstrates how we’re aiming to strike a balance between meeting growing energy demand and addressing rising global emissions, while collaborating closely with Indigenous rights holders, customers, neighbors and governments across Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. Key highlights include:

• Reduced absolute methane emissions by 12 per cent between 2019 and 2024 while increasing natural gas throughput by 15 per cent and comparable EBITDA in our natural gas business by 40 per cent
• A continued focus on methane intensity reduction, targeting cost-effective abatement across jurisdictions
• Achieved a five-year low in our High Energy Serious Injury and Fatality rate, demonstrating tangible progress in safeguarding our people and operations
• Signed over 40 relationship agreements with Indigenous communities across NGTL and Foothills pipeline systems since 2020.
