Energy Infrastructure & Transition Overview

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures KINDER MORGAN We use the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Earnings and Distributable Cash Flow (or DCF), both in the aggregate and per share for each; Adjusted Segment EBDA; Adjusted EBITDA; Net Debt; Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA; Project EBITDA; Free Cash Flow; and CO2 Segment Free Cash Flow. Our non-GAAP financial measures described further below should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or other GAAP measures and have important limitations as analytical tools. Our computations of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. You should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Management compensates for the limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures by reviewing our comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures and taking this information into account in its analysis and its decision-making processes. We do not provide (i) budgeted revenue (the GAAP financial measure closest to net revenue) due to impracticality of predicting certain amounts required by GAAP, including projected commodity prices at the multiple purchase and sale points across certain intrastate pipeline systems; however, we are able to project the net revenue received for transportation services based on contractual agreements and historical operational experience; (ii) budgeted CO2 Segment EBDA (the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to 2021 budgeted CO2 Segment Free Cash Flow) due to the inherent difficulty and impracticability of predicting certain amounts required by GAAP, such as potential changes in estimates for certain contingent liabilities and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives marked to market; or (iii) the portion of budgeted net income attributable to individual capital projects (the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Project EBITDA) due to the impracticality of predicting, on a project-by-project basis through the second full year of operations, certain amounts required by GAAP, such as projected commodity prices, unrealized gains and losses on derivatives marked to market, and potential estimates for certain contingent liabilities associated with the project completion. Certain Items, as adjustments used to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures, are items that are required by GAAP to be reflected in net income, but typically either (i) do not have a cash impact (for example, asset impairments), or (ii) by their nature are separately identifiable from our normal business operations and in our view are likely to occur only sporadically (for example, certain legal settlements, enactment of new tax legislation and casualty losses). We also include adjustments related to joint ventures (see “Amounts from Joint Ventures" below). Adjusted Earnings is calculated by adjusting net income attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. for Certain Items. Adjusted Earnings is used by us and certain external users of our financial statements to assess the earnings of our business excluding Certain Items as another reflection of our business's ability to generate earnings. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted Earnings is net income attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. Adjusted Earnings per share uses Adjusted Earnings and applies the same two-class method used in arriving at basic earnings per share. DCF is calculated by adjusting net income attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. for Certain Items (or Adjusted Earnings, as defined above), and further by DD&A and amortization of excess cost of equity investments, income tax expense, cash taxes, sustaining capital expenditures and other items. We also include amounts from joint ventures for income taxes, DD&A and sustaining capital expenditures (see “Amounts from Joint Ventures" below). DCF is a significant performance measure useful to management and external users of our financial statements in evaluating our performance and in measuring and estimating the ability of our assets to generate cash earnings after servicing our debt, paying cash taxes and expending sustaining capital, that could beused for discretionary purposes such as dividends, stock repurchases, retirement of debt, or expansion capital expenditures. DCF should not be used as an alternative to net cash provided byoperating activities computed under GAAP. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to DCF is net income attributable to Kinder Morgan, Inc. DCF per share is DCF divided by average outstanding shares, including restricted stock awards that participate in dividends. 33 33
