Brookfield Infrastructure Reports First Quarter 2024 Results

BROOKFIELD, NEWS, May 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (Brookfield Infrastructure, BIP, or the Partnership) (NYSE:BIP, TSX:BIP) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

"The benefits of inflation indexation, better than expected economic activity and strong contributions from new investments have favorably impacted our financial results," said Sam Pollock, Chief Executive Officer of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners. "With the base business performing well and successful capital recycling, we are positioned for success over the balance of 2024."

Brookfield Infrastructure reported net income of $170 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to $23 million in the prior year. Current quarter results benefited from strong operational performance and the contribution from recent acquisitions. The current period also reflects higher mark-to-market gains relative to losses incurred in the prior period. These positive impacts were partially offset by higher borrowing costs associated with our recent capital recycling initiatives.

Funds from operations (FFO) of $615 million increased by 11% compared with the same period last year. This increase reflects organic growth of 7%, as well as strong contributions associated with over $2 billion of new investments, partially offset by the impact of our capital recycling program and higher interest costs. Organic growth during the period was supported by inflation indexation, strong transportation volumes and the commissioning of over $1 billion of new capital from our capital backlog.

Segment Performance

The following table presents FFO by segment:

	For the three months ended March 31
US$ millions, unaudited1		2024				2023
FFO by segment
Utilities	$	190			$	208
Transport		302				192
Midstream		170				198
Data		68				70
Corporate		(115	)			(114	)
FFO4	$	615			$	554

The utilities segment generated FFO of $190 million, compared to $208 million in the same period last year. The decline is primarily attributable to the sale of our interest in an Australian regulated utility business. After adjusting for asset sales and financings completed, organic growth for the segment was approximately 8%. This growth is primarily from inflation indexation and the commissioning of over $450 million of capital into the rate base during the last twelve months.

FFO for the transport segment was $302 million, representing a 57% increase over the same period last year. The step-change is attributable to strong underlying performance and the acquisition of Triton which is performing well above our plan. The balance of our transport operations grew by 10%, driven by inflationary tariff increases and higher volumes. Our rail networks and toll roads realized average rate increases of 9% and 7%, respectively, over the same period last year, highlighting the benefits of inflation indexation. Traffic levels on our roads increased by 4% and our diversified terminals recorded 7% higher volumes.

Our midstream segment generated FFO of $170 million, which is comparable to the prior year after excluding the impact of capital recycling initiatives. Although our direct commodity price exposure is limited, the prevailing environment has been very favorable for customer activity levels and demand for our critical midstream assets. This demand has been most robust across our North American Gas Storage operations where we have extended contract duration and achieved rates higher than last year.

FFO from our data segment was $68 million, which is comparable to the same period last year. Results for the quarter benefited from a full quarter contribution from our German telecom tower operation, two hyperscale data center platform acquisitions and the purchase of 40 retail colocation data center sites out of bankruptcy. These acquisitions were largely offset by the sale of our interest in a New Zealand integrated data distribution business, which closed in June 2023.

Update on Strategic Initiatives

Market conditions have continued to improve during 2024. Activity levels for M&A processes have increased, and as a result, the environment for transacting should be more balanced this year as compared to the prior year. We have made significant progress on our capital recycling plans, securing $1.2 billion in proceeds of which $1.1 billion has been closed to date. This success sets us up well to achieve our $2 billion annual capital recycling target.

In April, we signed binding documentation to sell the fiber platform within our French Telecom Infrastructure business to a financial buyer. The transaction has an enterprise value of over €1 billion (approximately €175 million net to BIP) and is expected to result in an IRR of 17% and a multiple of capital of approximately 1.9x. We expect to generate up to $100 million in net-to-BIP proceeds when the transaction closes later this year. 

During the quarter we also completed several opportunistic asset level financings to right-size capital structures and pull forward future sale proceeds. At our Brazilian regulated gas transmission business, we completed a $1.6 billion financing that resulted in approximately $500 million of proceeds net to BIP. When combined with two refinancings completed at two pipeline operations in North America, we have generated over $1 billion for the partnership, while making these businesses more attractive to a wider buyer universe.

The investment pipeline remains quite full, but we are being very selective in pursuing only those opportunities with high risk adjusted returns. There are a significant number of organic and tuck-in opportunities that are our primary focus at the moment, since these are typically our highest returning investments.

Our largest investment in the quarter was a low-risk follow-on investment. We acquired an incremental 10% stake in our Brazilian integrated rail and logistics provider from an existing shareholder for approximately $365 million. The purchase increased our ownership to 21% (37% total Brookfield ownership) in a high performing business with strong fundamentals at an over 20% discount to our view of fair value. Additionally, the acquisition improves Brookfield's governance as we are now the business's largest shareholder.

We are also continuing to advance the follow-on acquisition of a portfolio of telecom towers in India, which is expected to close in Q4 2024, subject to regulatory approvals. The total equity consideration is expected to be approximately $1 billion, with BIP's share expected to be approximately $150 million. All together our total capital deployment so far this year is over $500 million.

Distribution and Dividend Declaration

The Board of Directors of BIP declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.405 per unit, payable on June 28, 2024 to unitholders of record as at the close of business on May 31, 2024. This distribution represents a 6% increase compared to the prior year. The regular quarterly dividends on the Cumulative Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units, Series 1, Series 3, Series 9, Series 11, Series 13 and Series 14 have also been declared, as well as the capital gains 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 $0.405 per share, also payable on June 28, 2024 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on May 31, 2024.

1. Please refer to page 10 for results of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation.
2. Includes net income attributable to limited partners, the general partner, and non-controlling interests ‒ Redeemable Partnership Units held by Brookfield, Exchange LP units, BIPC exchangeable LP units and BIPC exchangeable shares.
3. Average number of limited partnership units outstanding on a time weighted average basis for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 was 461.4 million (2023: 458.4 million).
4. We define FFO as net income excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, mark-to-market gains (losses) and other income (expenses) that are not related to the revenue earning activities and are not normal, recurring cash operating expenses necessary for business operations. FFO includes balances attributable to the Partnership generated by investments in associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method and excludes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests based on the economic interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. We believe that FFO, when viewed in conjunction with our IFRS results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our underlying operations. FFO is a measure of operating performance that is not calculated in accordance with, and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. FFO is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is available on page 8 of this release. Readers are encouraged to consider both measures in assessing our company's results.
5. Average number of partnership units outstanding on a fully diluted time weighted average basis for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 was 792.0 million (2023: 771.4 million).

1. FFO contribution from investments in associates and joint ventures correspond to the FFO attributable to the partnership that are generated by its investments in associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method.
2. Other (income) expense corresponds to amounts that are not related to the revenue earning activities and are not normal, recurring cash operating expenses necessary for business operations. Other income/expenses excluded from FFO primarily includes gains on acquisitions and dispositions of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, gains or losses relating to foreign currency translation reclassified from accumulated comprehensive income to other expense, acquisition costs, gains/losses on remeasurement of borrowings, amortization of deferred financing costs, fair value remeasurement gains/losses, accretion expenses on deferred consideration or asset retirement obligations, impairment losses, and gains or losses on debt extinguishment.
3. Amounts attributable to non-controlling interests are calculated based on the economic ownership interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. By adjusting FFO attributable to non-controlling interests, our partnership is able to remove the portion of FFO earned at non-wholly owned subsidiaries that are not attributable to our partnership.

Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation Reports First Quarter 2024 Results

The Board of Directors of Brookfield Infrastructure Corporation ("BIPC" or our "company") ((NYSE, TSX:BIPC) today declared a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.405 per class A exchangeable subordinate voting share of BIPC (a "Share"), payable on June 28, 2024 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on May 31, 2024. This dividend is identical in amount per Share and has identical record and payment dates to the quarterly distribution announced today by Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. ("BIP" or the "Partnership") 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). 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 https://bip.brookfield.com. Copies of the Partnership's continuous disclosure filings are available electronically on EDGAR on the SEC's website at https://sec.gov or on SEDAR+ at https://sedarplus.ca.

Results

The net income of BIPC is captured in the Partnership's financial statements and results.

BIPC reported net income of $197 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $195 million in the prior year. After removing the impact of the revaluation on our own Shares that are classified as liabilities under IFRS, underlying earnings were 43% higher than the prior year. Current period results benefited from the acquisition of Triton International, our global logistics operation, inflation indexation across our business and capital commissioned into rate base at our U.K. regulated distribution business. These benefits were partially offset by higher financing costs at our businesses as a result of incremental borrowings. Additionally offsetting results was an increase in dividends paid on our exchangeable shares, which are classified as interest expense, due to the 6% increase in our quarterly dividend compared to the prior year.
