Higher 2023 results were driven primarily by higher volumes across ONEOK’s systems, higher average fee rates, and higher natural gas storage and transportation services. Results included higher operating costs due primarily to higher employee-related costs and higher outside services due to the growth of ONEOK’s operations. Full-year 2023 results included $633 million related to the Medford incident and $158 million of transaction costs. Additionally, 2023 results included $465 million of adjusted EBITDA in the refined products and crude segment following the closing of the Magellan acquisition on Sept. 25, 2023.

ONEOK Announces Higher Fourth Quarter and Full-year 2023 Earnings Feb. 26, 2024 Page 5 -more- synergies and system optimization. Additional commercial synergies are expected in 2026 as necessary capital expenditure projects are completed. Capital Expenditures: Total capital expenditures are expected to range between $1.75 billion to $1.95 billion. Capital expenditure guidance includes the MB-6 NGL fractionator, West Texas NGL pipeline expansion project and the expansion of the Elk Creek NGL pipeline, which will bring total capacity out of the Rocky Mountain region to 575,000 barrels per day.

ONEOK Announces Higher Fourth Quarter and Full-year 2023 Earnings Feb. 26, 2024 Page 9 -more- LINK TO EARNINGS TABLES AND PRESENTATION: https://ir.oneok.com/financial-information/financial-reports 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), which is 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 of unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA from unconsolidated affiliates is calculated consistently with the definition above and excludes items such as interest, taxes, depreciation 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. At ONEOK (NYSE: OKE), we deliver energy products and services vital to an advancing world.
