(unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Business Description

The accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements apply to Crestwood Equity Partners LP (Crestwood Equity or CEQP) and Crestwood Midstream Partners LP (Crestwood Midstream or CMLP), unless otherwise indicated.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 26, 2021. The financial information as of September 30, 2021, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, is unaudited. The consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 were derived from the audited balance sheets filed in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

References in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “ours,” “our company,” the “partnership,” the “Company,” “Crestwood Equity,” “CEQP,” and similar terms refer to either Crestwood Equity Partners LP itself or Crestwood Equity Partners LP and its consolidated subsidiaries, as the context requires. Unless otherwise indicated, references to “Crestwood Midstream” and “CMLP” refer to either Crestwood Midstream Partners LP itself or Crestwood Midstream Partners LP and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Organization

Crestwood Equity Partners LP. CEQP is a publicly-traded (NYSE: CEQP) Delaware limited partnership formed in March 2001. Crestwood Equity GP LLC (Crestwood Equity GP) owns our non-economic general partnership interest. Prior to the Crestwood Holdings Transactions described below, Crestwood Equity was indirectly owned by Crestwood Holdings LLC (Crestwood Holdings), which is substantially owned and controlled by First Reserve Management, L.P. (First Reserve).

Crestwood Midstream Partners LP. Crestwood Equity owns a 99.9% limited partnership interest in Crestwood Midstream and Crestwood Gas Services GP LLC (CGS GP), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crestwood Equity, owns a 0.1% limited partnership interest in Crestwood Midstream. Crestwood Midstream GP LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crestwood Equity, owns the non-economic general partnership interest of Crestwood Midstream.

Crestwood Holdings Transactions. In March 2021, CEQP paid Crestwood Holdings approximately $268 million to (i) acquire approximately 11.5 million CEQP common units, 0.4 million subordinated units of CEQP and 100% of the equity interests of Crestwood Marcellus Holdings LLC and Crestwood Gas Services Holdings LLC (whose assets consisted solely of CEQP common and subordinated units and 1% of the limited partner interests in Crestwood Holdings LP) in March 2021; and (ii) acquire the general partner and the remaining 99% limited partner interests of Crestwood Holdings LP (whose assets consist solely of its ownership interest in Crestwood Equity GP, which owns CEQP’s non-economic general partner interest) in August 2021 (collectively, the Crestwood Holdings Transactions). The purchase price was funded through borrowings under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility. CEQP retired the common and subordinated units acquired in the Crestwood Holdings Transactions.

The diagram below reflects a simplified version our ownership structure as of September 30, 2021 following the Crestwood Holdings Transactions.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of all consolidated subsidiaries after the elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions. Certain amounts and footnote disclosures in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, none of which impacted our previously reported net income, earnings per unit or partners’ capital. In management’s opinion, all necessary adjustments to fairly present our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented have been made and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Significant Accounting Policies

There were no material changes in our significant accounting policies from those described in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Below is an update of our accounting policies related to Property, Plant and Equipment and Goodwill.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded a loss on long-lived assets of approximately $19 million related to the abandonment and dismantlement of certain of our gathering and processing segment’s Marcellus West Union compressor station assets. Our West Union compressor station assets were located in West Virginia and provided compression and dehydration services to our customers. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we recorded a $19.9 million loss on long-lived assets related to the sale of our Fayetteville assets in October 2020 and during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 we recorded an $80.3 million full impairment of the goodwill associated with our Powder River Basin reporting unit based on events that occurred during 2020 which resulted in a significant decrease in the forecasted cash flows and fair value of the reporting unit. For a further discussion of this goodwill impairment, see our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Note 3 – Acquisition

In April 2020, we acquired several NGL storage and rail-to-truck terminals from Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. for approximately $162 million. The acquired assets include 7 MMBbls of NGL storage and 7 terminals. These assets are included in our marketing, supply and logistics segment. The transaction costs related to this acquisition were not material during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Note 5 - Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Stagecoach Gas Divestiture

In July 2021, Stagecoach Gas sold certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan, Inc. (Kinder Morgan) for approximately $1.195 billion plus certain purchase price adjustments (Initial Closing) pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated as of May 31, 2021 between our wholly-owned subsidiary, Crestwood Pipeline and Storage Northeast LLC (Crestwood Northeast), Con Edison Gas Pipeline and Storage Northeast, LLC (CEGP), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Consolidated Edison, Inc., Stagecoach Gas and Kinder Morgan. Following the Initial Closing and subject to certain customary closing conditions, Crestwood Northeast and CEGP will sell each of their equity interests in Stagecoach Gas and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Twin Tier Pipeline LLC, (Second Closing) to Kinder Morgan for approximately $30 million, subject to certain closing adjustments.

In conjunction with the Initial Closing, we recorded our share of a loss on long-lived assets (including goodwill) recorded by our Stagecoach Gas equity investment associated with the sale. This eliminated our $51.3 million historical basis difference between our investment balance and the equity in the underlying net assets of Stagecoach Gas, and also resulted in a $155.4 million reduction in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. In addition, our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were also reduced by our proportionate share of transaction costs of approximately $3.0 million related to the Initial Closing, which were paid by us in July 2021 on behalf of Stagecoach Gas. Our Stagecoach Gas investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.

(1)As of September 30, 2021, our equity in the underlying net assets of Stagecoach Gas approximates the carrying value of our investment.

(2)As of September 30, 2021, our equity in the underlying net assets of Tres Palacios Holdings LLC (Tres Holdings) exceeded the carrying value of our investment balance by approximately $21.8 million. During both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded amortization of approximately $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively, related to this excess basis, which is reflected as an increase in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates in our consolidated statements of operations. Our Tres Holdings investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.

(3)As of September 30, 2021, our equity in the underlying net assets of Powder River Basin Industrial Complex, LLC (PRBIC) approximates the carrying value of our investment balance. During the first quarter of 2020, we recorded our share of a long-lived asset impairment recorded by our PRBIC equity investment, which eliminated our $5.5 million historical basis difference between our investment balance and the equity in the underlying net assets of PRBIC, and also resulted in a $4.5 million reduction in our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Our PRBIC investment is included in our storage and transportation segment.

(4)As of September 30, 2021, our equity in the underlying net assets of Crestwood Permian exceeded our investment balance by $7.5 million, and this excess amount is not subject to amortization. Our Crestwood Permian investment is included in our gathering and processing segment and is no longer considered a variable interest entity.

Table of Contents

(1) In July 2021, Stagecoach Gas closed on the sale of certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan and distributed to us approximately $613.9 million as our proportionate share of the gross proceeds received from the sale. We utilized approximately $3 million of these proceeds to pay transaction costs related to the sale described above, $40 million of these proceeds to pay our remaining contingent consideration obligation and related accrued interest described below, and the remaining proceeds to repay a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility. In October 2021, we received cash distributions from Tres Holdings and Crestwood Permian of approximately $2.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively.

Other

Contingent Consideration. Pursuant to the Stagecoach Gas limited liability company agreement, we were required to make payments to CEGP because certain performance targets on growth capital projects were not achieved by December 31, 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we fully satisfied this obligation by paying $57 million plus accrued interest of $2.1 million to CEGP.

Guarantee. CEQP issued a guarantee under which CEQP would be required to pay up to $10 million if Crestwood Permian fails to honor its obligations to Crestwood Permian Basin LLC, a 50% equity investment of Crestwood Permian, in the event Crestwood Permian Basin LLC fails to satisfy its obligations under its gas gathering agreement with a third party. We do not believe that it is probable that this guarantee will result in future losses based on our assessment of the nature of the guarantee, the financial condition of the guaranteed party and the period of time that the guarantee has been outstanding, and as a result, we have not recorded a liability related to this guarantee on our consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Note 6 – Risk Management

We are exposed to certain market risks related to our ongoing business operations. These risks include exposure to changing commodity prices. We utilize derivative instruments to manage our exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, which is discussed below. Additional information related to our derivatives is discussed in Note 7.

Risk Management Activities

We sell NGLs (such as propane, ethane, butane and heating oil), crude oil and natural gas to energy-related businesses and may use a variety of financial and other instruments including forward contracts involving physical delivery of NGLs, crude oil and natural gas. We periodically enter into offsetting positions to economically hedge against the exposure our customer contracts create. Certain of these contracts and positions are derivative instruments. We do not designate any of our commodity-based derivatives as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. Our commodity-based derivatives are reflected at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets, and changes in the fair value of these derivatives that impact the consolidated statements of operations are reflected in costs of product/services sold. Our commodity-based derivatives that are settled with physical commodities are reflected as an increase to product revenues, and the commodity inventory that is utilized to satisfy those physical obligations is reflected as an increase to product costs in our consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the impact to our consolidated statements of operations related to our commodity-based derivatives during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 (in millions):


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
Product revenues	$	129.4	$	32.4	$	296.9	$	125.4
Gain (loss) reflected in product costs	$	(53.4)	$	(1.8)	$	(94.8)	$	13.4

We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio in terms of notional amounts and timing of performance and delivery obligations. This balance in the contractual portfolio significantly reduces the volatility in product costs related to these instruments.

Table of Contents

Notional Amounts and Terms

The notional amounts of our derivative financial instruments include the following:


	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
	Fixed Price Payor	Fixed Price Receiver	Fixed Price Payor	Fixed Price Receiver
Propane, ethane, butane, heating oil and crude oil (MMBbls)	73.9	78.4	72.7	76.5
Natural gas (Bcf)	32.1	42.8	22.6	28.6

Notional amounts reflect the volume of transactions, but do not represent the amounts exchanged by the parties to the financial instruments. Accordingly, notional amounts do not reflect our monetary exposure to market or credit risks. All contracts subject to price risk had a maturity of 36 months or less; however, 86% of the contracted volumes will be delivered or settled within 12 months.

Credit Risk

Inherent in our contractual portfolio are certain credit risks. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. We take an active role in managing credit risk and have established control procedures, which are reviewed on an ongoing basis. We attempt to minimize credit risk exposure through credit policies and periodic monitoring procedures as well as through customer deposits, letters of credit and entering into netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain financial transactions, as deemed appropriate. The counterparties associated with our price risk management activities are energy marketers and propane retailers, resellers and dealers.

Certain of our derivative instruments have credit limits that require us to post collateral. The amount of collateral required to be posted is a function of the net liability position of the derivative as well as our established credit limit with the respective counterparty. If our credit rating were to change, the counterparties could require us to post additional collateral. The amount of additional collateral that would be required to be posted would vary depending on the extent of change in our credit rating as well as the requirements of the individual counterparty. In addition, we have margin requirements with a derivative clearing broker and a third party broker related to our net asset or liability position with each respective broker. All collateral amounts have been netted against the asset or liability with the respective counterparty and are reflected in our consolidated balance sheets as assets and liabilities from price risk management activities.

The following table presents the fair value of our commodity derivative instruments with credit-risk related contingent features and their associated collateral (in millions):


	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Aggregate fair value liability of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features(1)	$	157.6	$	38.5
Broker-related net derivative asset position	$	199.6	$	35.9
Broker-related cash collateral received	$	163.9	$	18.3
Cash collateral received, net	$	14.3	$	12.4

(1)At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we posted $1.1 million and less than $0.1 million of collateral associated with these derivatives.

Note 7 – Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurement establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide

Table of Contents

pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and US government treasury securities.

•Level 2—Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as over the counter (OTC) forwards, options and physical exchanges.

•Level 3—Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Financial Assets and Liabilities

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we held certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, which include our derivative instruments related to crude oil, NGLs and natural gas. Our derivative instruments consist of forwards, swaps, futures, physical exchanges and options.

Our derivative instruments that are traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange have been categorized as Level 1.

Our derivative instruments also include OTC contracts, which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair values of these derivative instruments are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. These instruments have been categorized as Level 2.

Our OTC options are valued based on the Black Scholes option pricing model that considers time value and volatility of the underlying commodity. The inputs utilized in the model are based on publicly available information as well as broker quotes. These options have been categorized as Level 2.

Our financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial instruments that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in millions):

Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

Credit Facility

The fair value of the amounts outstanding under our Crestwood Midstream credit facility approximates the carrying amounts as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, due primarily to the variable nature of the interest rate of the instrument, which is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Senior Notes

We estimate the fair value of our senior notes primarily based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issuances (representing a Level 2 fair value measurement).

Credit Facility

Crestwood Midstream’s five-year $1.25 billion revolving credit facility (the CMLP Credit Facility) is available to fund acquisitions, working capital and internal growth projects and for general partnership purposes. Contemporaneous with the Crestwood Holdings Transactions described in Note 1, Crestwood Midstream entered into the Third Amendment to its credit agreement in order to, among other things, permit the borrowings under the CMLP Credit Facility to fund the Crestwood Holdings Transactions and revise the definition of Change in Control in the CMLP Credit Agreement as it relates to the control of CEQP’s general partner). The other covenants and restrictive provisions under the amended credit agreement are materially consistent with the covenants that existed at December 31, 2020.

Crestwood Midstream is required under its credit agreement to maintain a net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not more than 5.50 to 1.0, a consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not less than 2.50 to 1.0, and a senior secured leverage ratio (as defined in its credit agreement) of not more than 3.75 to 1.0. At September 30, 2021, the net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio was approximately 3.45 to 1.0, the consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense ratio was approximately 4.98 to 1.0, and the senior secured leverage ratio was 0.42 to 1.0.

At September 30, 2021, Crestwood Midstream had $985.3 million of available capacity under its credit facility considering the most restrictive debt covenants in its credit agreement. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Crestwood Midstream’s outstanding standby letters of credit were $14.2 million and $23.9 million. Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest at prime or Eurodollar based rates plus applicable spreads, which resulted in interest rates between 2.34% and 4.50% at September 30, 2021 and 2.40% and 4.50% at December 31, 2020. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 2.41% and 2.45%.

Senior Notes

2029 Senior Notes. In January 2021, Crestwood Midstream issued $700 million of 6.00% unsecured senior notes due 2029 (the 2029 Senior Notes). The 2029 Senior Notes will mature on February 1, 2029, and interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2021. The net proceeds from this offering of approximately $691.0 million were used to repay a portion of the 2023 Senior Notes and to repay indebtedness under the CMLP Credit Facility.

2023 Senior Note Repayments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we redeemed $687.2 million of principal outstanding under our 2023 Senior Notes. In conjunction with the repayment of the notes, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $6.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and paid approximately $8.6 million of accrued interest on the 2023 Senior Notes on the dates they were repurchased. We funded the

repayment using a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes and borrowings under the CMLP Credit Facility.

Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

Linde Lawsuit. On December 23, 2019, Linde Engineering North America Inc. (Linde) filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Harris County, Texas alleging that Arrow Field Services, LLC, our consolidated subsidiary, and Crestwood Midstream breached a contract entered into in March 2018 under which Linde was to provide engineering, procurement and construction services to us related to the completion of the construction of the Bear Den II cryogenic processing plant. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we paid approximately $19.5 million to Linde related to this matter, and Linde claims remaining unpaid invoices of approximately $36 million, along with other damages. This matter is not an insurable event based on our insurance policies, and we are unable to predict the outcome for this matter.

General. We are periodically involved in litigation proceedings. If we determine that a negative outcome is probable and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable, then we accrue the estimated amount. The results of litigation proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. We could incur judgments, enter into settlements or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid and/or accrued. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had approximately $16.6 million and $10.4 million accrued for outstanding legal matters. Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures for which we can estimate will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.

Any loss estimates are inherently subjective, based on currently available information, and are subject to management’s judgment and various assumptions. Due to the inherently subjective nature of these estimates and the uncertainty and unpredictability surrounding the outcome of legal proceedings, actual results may differ materially from any amounts that have been accrued.

Regulatory Compliance

In the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to various laws and regulations. In the opinion of our management, compliance with current laws and regulations will not have a material effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Environmental Compliance

Our operations are subject to stringent and complex laws and regulations pertaining to worker health, safety, and the environment. We are subject to laws and regulations at the federal, state, regional and local levels that relate to air and water quality, hazardous and solid waste management and disposal, and other environmental matters. The cost of planning, designing, constructing and operating our facilities must incorporate compliance with environmental laws and regulations and safety standards. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may trigger a variety of administrative, civil and potentially criminal enforcement measures.

During 2019, we experienced produced water releases on our Arrow water gathering system located within the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota. In January 2021, we received a Notice of Violation and Opportunity to Confer from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to the water releases. In March 2021, we executed a Consent Agreement with the EPA and agreed to pay $0.1 million for penalties related to the water releases. The EPA provided the public a 30-day period to comment on the Consent Agreement and is currently reviewing the comments received. We expect to finalize and settle the Consent Agreement after the EPA completes its review and response, if necessary, to the comments received. We are also substantially complete with all remediation efforts related to the water releases and continue to monitor any remaining impacts. We will continue our remediation efforts to ensure that lands impacted by the produced water releases are fully remediated. In response to the water releases, we removed several miles of gathering pipeline from the system that remained in service and replaced those sections with a pipeline composed of higher capacity material that is more suitable to the environment and climate conditions in the Bakken. The replaced pipeline increased water gathering capacity on the Arrow

system and furthers our commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship in the areas where we live and operate. We believe these events are insurable under our policies. We have not recorded an insurance receivable as of September 30, 2021.

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our accrual of approximately $1.2 million and $1.3 million was based on our undiscounted estimate of amounts we will spend on compliance with environmental and other regulations, and any associated fines or penalties. We estimate that our potential liability for reasonably possible outcomes related to our environmental exposures could range from approximately $1.2 million to $1.9 million at September 30, 2021.

Self-Insurance

We utilize third-party insurance subject to varying retention levels of self-insurance, which management considers prudent. Such self-insurance relates to losses and liabilities primarily associated with medical claims, workers’ compensation claims and general, product, vehicle and environmental liability. Losses are accrued based upon management’s estimates of the aggregate liability for claims incurred using certain assumptions followed in the insurance industry and based on past experience. The primary assumption utilized is actuarially determined loss development factors. The loss development factors are based primarily on historical data. Our self insurance reserves could be affected if future claim developments differ from the historical trends. We believe changes in health care costs, trends in health care claims of our employee base, accident frequency and severity and other factors could materially affect the estimate for these liabilities. We continually monitor changes in employee demographics, incident and claim type and evaluate our insurance accruals and adjust our accruals based on our evaluation of these qualitative data points. We are liable for the development of claims for our previously disposed of retail propane operations, provided they were reported prior to August 1, 2012. The following table summarizes CEQP’s and CMLP’s self-insurance reserves at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in millions):


	CEQP				CMLP
	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020		September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Self-insurance reserves(1)	$	6.7	$	7.7	$	5.8	$	6.7

(1)At September 30, 2021, CEQP and CMLP classified approximately $4.8 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of these reserves as other long-term liabilities on their consolidated balance sheets.

Guarantees and Indemnifications

We are involved in various joint ventures that sometimes require financial and performance guarantees. In a financial guarantee, we are obligated to make payments if the guaranteed party fails to make payments under, or violates the terms of, the financial arrangement. In a performance guarantee, we provide assurance that the guaranteed party will execute on the terms of the contract. If they do not, we are required to perform on their behalf. We also periodically provide indemnification arrangements related to assets or businesses we have sold. For a further description of our guarantees associated with our joint ventures, see Note 5.

Our potential exposure under guarantee and indemnification arrangements can range from a specified amount to an unlimited dollar amount, depending on the nature of the claim, specificity as to duration, and the particular transaction. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we have no amounts accrued for these guarantees.

Note 11 – Partners’ Capital and Non-Controlling Partner

Common and Subordinated Units

In conjunction with the Crestwood Holdings Transactions discussed in Note 1, in March 2021, CEQP acquired approximately 11.5 million CEQP common units and 0.4 million subordinated units of CEQP from Crestwood Holdings for approximately $268 million. CEQP reflected the purchase price as a reduction to its common unitholders’ partners’ capital in its consolidated statement of partners’ capital during the first quarter of 2021. The Crestwood Holdings Transactions resulted in CEQP retiring the common and subordinated units acquired from Crestwood Holdings. Transaction costs related to the Crestwood Holdings Transactions of approximately $7.6 million are reflected as a reduction of CEQP’s common unitholders’ partners’ capital in its consolidated statement of partners’ capital during the first quarter of 2021.

Preferred Unitholders. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we paid cash distributions to our preferred unitholders of approximately $45 million in both periods. On October 14, 2021, the board of directors of our general partner authorized a cash distribution to our preferred unitholders of approximately $15 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Crestwood Midstream

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, Crestwood Midstream paid cash distributions of $451.3 million and $180.9 million to its partners.

Non-Controlling Partner

Crestwood Niobrara issued preferred interests to CN Jackalope Holdings LLC (Jackalope Holdings), which are reflected as non-controlling interest in subsidiary apart from partners’ capital (i.e., temporary equity) on our consolidated balance sheets. We adjust the carrying amount of our non-controlling interest to its redemption value each period through net income attributable to non-controlling partner.

The following table shows the change in our non-controlling interest in subsidiary at September 30, 2021 and 2020 (in millions):

Other

In February 2021, Crestwood Equity issued 50,000 performance units under the Crestwood Equity Partners LP Long Term Incentive Plan (Crestwood LTIP). The performance units are designed to provide an incentive for continuous employment to certain key employees. The vesting of performance units is subject to the attainment of certain performance and market goals over a three-year period, and entitle a participant to receive common units of Crestwood Equity without payment of an exercise price upon vesting. As of September 30, 2021, we had total unamortized compensation expense of approximately $0.9 million related to these performance units. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized compensation expense of $0.1 million and $0.2 million related to these performance units, which is included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations.

Note 12 - Earnings Per Limited Partner Unit

Prior to the Crestwood Holdings transactions, we calculated basic net income per limited partner unit using the two-class method. Our income (loss) was allocated to our common units and other participating securities (i.e., subordinated units) based on the amount of dividends paid in the current period plus an allocation of the undistributed earnings or excess distributions over earnings to the extent that each security participates in income (loss) or excess distributions over income (loss). The dilutive effect of the stock-based compensation performance units is calculated using the treasury stock method which considers the impact to net income or loss attributable to Crestwood Equity Partners and limited partner units from the potential issuance of limited partner units. The dilutive effect of the preferred units and Crestwood Niobrara preferred units are calculated using the if-converted method which assumes units are converted at the beginning of the period (beginning with their respective issuance date), and the resulting common units are included in the denominator of the diluted net income per common unit calculation for the period being presented. Distributions declared in the period and undeclared distributions that accumulated during the period are added back to the numerator for purposes of the if-converted calculation.

We exclude potentially dilutive securities from the determination of diluted earnings per unit (as well as their related income statement impacts) when their impact is anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes information regarding the weighted-average of common units excluded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 (in millions):


	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 30,		September 30,

Note 13 – Segments

We have 3 operating and reportable segments: (i) gathering and processing; (ii) storage and transportation; and (iii) marketing, supply and logistics. Our corporate operations include all general and administrative expenses that are not allocated to our reportable segments. For a further description of our operating and reporting segments, see Note 1. We assess the performance of our operating segments based on EBITDA, which is defined as income before income taxes, plus debt-related costs (interest and debt expense, net and loss on modification/extinguishment of debt) and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense.

Note 14 - Revenues

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Our contract assets and contract liabilities are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Our receivables related to our revenue contracts accounted for under Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) totaled $350.0 million and $219.9 million for both CEQP and CMLP at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and are included in accounts receivable on our consolidated balance sheets. Our contract assets are included in other non-current assets on our consolidated balance sheets. Our contract liabilities primarily consist of current and non-current deferred revenues. On our consolidated balance sheets, our current deferred revenues are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities and our non-current deferred revenues are included in other long-term liabilities. The majority of revenues associated with our deferred revenues is expected to be recognized as the performance obligations under the related contracts are satisfied over the next 16 years.

The following table summarizes our contract assets and contract liabilities (in millions):


	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Contract assets (non-current)	$	1.4	$	1.0
Contract liabilities (current)(1)	$	10.8	$	10.3
Contract liabilities (non-current)(1)	$	183.4	$	172.2

(1)During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized revenues of approximately $3.4 million and $9.8 million that were previously included in contract liabilities at December 31, 2020. The remaining change in our contract liabilities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, related to capital reimbursements associated with our revenue contracts and revenue deferrals associated with our contracts with increasing (decreasing) rates.

The following table summarizes the transaction price allocated to our remaining performance obligations under certain contracts that have not been recognized as of September 30, 2021 (in millions):


Remainder of 2021	$	23.3
2022	75.4
2023	52.6
2024	31.7
Total	$	183.0

Our remaining performance obligations presented in the table above exclude estimates of variable rate escalation clauses in our contracts with customers, and is generally limited to fixed-fee and percentage-of-proceeds service contracts which have fixed pricing and minimum volume terms and conditions. Our remaining performance obligations generally exclude, based on the following practical expedients that we elected to apply, disclosures for (i) variable consideration allocated to a wholly-unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of the identified single performance obligation; (ii) unsatisfied performance obligations where the contract term is one year or less; and (iii) contracts for which we recognize revenues as amounts are invoiced.

Disaggregation of Revenues

The following tables summarize our revenues from contracts with customers disaggregated by type of product/service sold and by commodity type for each of our segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 (in millions). We believe this summary best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Our non-Topic 606 revenues presented in the tables below primarily represents revenues related to our commodity-based derivatives.

This report, including information included or incorporated by reference herein, contains forward-looking statements concerning the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our company and its subsidiaries. These forward-looking statements include:

•statements that are not historical in nature, including, but not limited to: (i) our belief that anticipated cash from operations, cash distributions from entities that we control, and borrowing capacity under our credit facility will be sufficient to meet our anticipated liquidity needs for the foreseeable future; (ii) our belief that we do not have material potential liability in connection with legal proceedings that would have a significant financial impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows; and (iii) our belief that our assets will continue to benefit from the development of unconventional shale plays as significant supply basins; and

•statements preceded by, followed by or that contain forward-looking terminology including the words “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend” or the negation thereof, or similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:

•our ability to successfully implement our business plan for our assets and operations;

•governmental legislation and regulations;

•industry factors that influence the supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGLs;

•industry factors that influence the demand for services in the markets (particularly unconventional shale plays) in which we provide services;

•weather conditions;

•outbreak of illness, pandemic or any other public health crisis, including the COVID-19 pandemic;

•the availability of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs, and the price of those commodities, to consumers relative to the price of alternative and competing fuels;

•the availability of storage for hydrocarbons;

•the ability of members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other oil-producing countries to agree and maintain oil price and production controls;

•economic conditions;

•costs or difficulties related to the integration of acquisitions and success of our joint ventures’ operations;

•environmental claims;

•operating hazards and other risks incidental to the provision of midstream services, including gathering, compressing, treating, processing, fractionating, transporting and storing energy products (i.e., crude oil, NGLs and natural gas) and related products (i.e., produced water);

•interest rates;

•the price and availability of debt and equity financing, including our ability to raise capital through alternatives like joint ventures; and

•the ability to sell or monetize assets, to reduce indebtedness, to repurchase our equity securities, to make strategic investments, or for other general partnership purposes.

For additional factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Outlook and Trends

Our business objective is to create long-term value for our unitholders. We expect to create value for our investors by generating stable operating margins and improving cash flows from our diversified midstream operations by prudently

Table of Contents

financing investments in our assets and expansions of our portfolio, maximizing throughput and optimizing services on our assets, and effectively controlling our capital expenditures, operating and administrative costs.

We have taken a number of strategic steps to better position the Company as a stronger, better capitalized company that can accretively grow cash flows and as an industry leader in Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) efforts.

During 2021, CEQP paid Crestwood Holdings approximately $268 million to (i) acquire approximately 11.5 million CEQP common units, 0.4 million subordinated units of CEQP and 100% of the equity interests of Crestwood Marcellus Holdings LLC and Crestwood Gas Services Holdings LLC (whose assets consisted solely of CEQP common and subordinated units and 1% of the limited partner interests in Crestwood Holdings LP); and (ii) acquire the general partner and the remaining 99% limited partner interests of Crestwood Holdings LP (whose assets consist solely of its ownership interest in Crestwood Equity GP LLC, which owns CEQP’s non-economic general partner interest) (collectively the Crestwood Holdings Transactions). The purchase price was funded through borrowings under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility. The Crestwood Holdings Transactions resulted in CEQP retiring the common and subordinated units acquired from Crestwood Holdings.

The Crestwood Holdings Transactions were a significant step in our strategy to drive peer leading governance and set the stage for future growth by simplifying our organizational structure, increasing our public float and liquidity and enhancing our financial flexibility as we strive to generate long-term value for our unitholders. Additionally, in connection with the Crestwood Holdings Transactions, Crestwood Holdings repaid all of its outstanding debt which further enhances CEQP’s future flexibility around capital allocation priorities and eliminates any potential future risks around a change of control related to Crestwood Holdings’ debt as previously described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In conjunction with the completion of the Crestwood Holdings Transactions, CEQP will transition to a traditional public company governance structure with a publicly elected board of directors beginning in 2022 which further ensures alignment between management and the Board of Directors with common unitholders and is consistent with our long-term ESG program.

To further enhance our financial flexibility and execute our long-term business strategy, in July 2021, Stagecoach Gas sold certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan, Inc. (Kinder Morgan) for approximately $1.195 billion plus certain purchase price adjustments (Initial Closing) pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated as of May 31, 2021 between our wholly owned subsidiary, Crestwood Pipeline and Storage Northeast LLC (Crestwood Northeast), Con Edison Gas Pipeline and Storage Northeast, LLC (CEGP), a wholly owned subsidiary of Consolidated Edison, Inc., Stagecoach Gas and Kinder Morgan. Stagecoach Gas distributed to us approximately $614 million as our proportionate share of the gross proceeds received from the sale. Following the Initial Closing and subject to certain customary closing conditions, Crestwood Northeast and CEGP will sell each of their equity interests in Stagecoach Gas and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Twin Tier Pipeline LLC (Second Closing) to Kinder Morgan for approximately $30 million, subject to certain closing adjustments. We anticipate the Second Closing to occur either in the fourth quarter of 2021 or first quarter of 2022. The Stagecoach Gas divestiture enabled us to decrease our net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of our revolving credit facility below 3.5x at September 30. 2021, which should position us to utilize a greater portion of our cash flow going forward to increase returns to our unitholders through continued distributions, prudent capital investments around our higher-growth gathering and processing assets, and opportunistic repurchases of our preferred and common units under our approved $175 million unit repurchase program described below in “Liquidity and Sources of Capital”.

We continue to drive our long-term growth strategy through disciplined capital investments utilizing our current financial flexibility, and on October 25, 2021, we entered into a merger agreement with Oasis Midstream Partners LP (Oasis Midstream) under which we will acquire Oasis Midstream in an equity and cash transaction valued at approximately $1.8 billion. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Oasis Petroleum Inc. (Oasis Petroleum) will receive $150 million in cash plus 21.0 million newly issued CEQP common units in exchange for its 33.8 million common units held in Oasis Midstream. In addition, Oasis Midstream’s public unitholders will receive 12.9 million newly issued CEQP common units in exchange for the 14.8 million Oasis Midstream common units held by them. Additionally, under the merger agreement, Oasis Petroleum will receive a $10 million cash payment for its ownership of the general partner of Oasis Midstream. This transaction further solidifies Crestwood’s competitive position in the Williston Basin with exposure to approximately 1,200 drilling locations and 535,000 dedicated acres and expands the company’s relationship with Oasis Petroleum. Additionally, Oasis Midstream’s Wild Basin gathering and processing assets are highly complementary with our Arrow gathering system and Bear Den processing facility which provides for immediate opportunities to drive cost savings and commercial synergies and better utilization of available gas processing capacity.

Table of Contents

In addition to the strategic steps discussed above, we have also taken steps to (i) minimize capital expenditures to better align with development activity by our gathering and processing customers; (ii) realign our organization to reduce operating and administrative expenses; (iii) engage with our customers to maintain volumes across our asset portfolio; (iv) optimize our storage, transportation and marketing assets to take advantage of regional commodity price volatility; and (v) evaluate our debt and equity structure to preserve liquidity and ensure balance sheet strength. Given our efforts over the past few years to improve the partnership’s competitive position in the businesses we operate, manage costs and improve margins and create a stronger balance sheet, we believe the Company is well positioned to execute its business plan.

Recent Developments

Bakken DAPL Matter. In July 2020, a U.S. District Court (District Court) ordered the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) to cease operation based on an alleged procedural permitting failure. On August 5, 2020, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (D.C. Circuit) stayed the DAPL shutdown, and set an expedited briefing schedule to determine the merits of the District Court’s decision. The D.C. Circuit issued an opinion on January 26, 2021, which upheld the District Court’s decision on the merits, but did not rule on whether DAPL should be prohibited from continued operation. The plaintiffs sought another injunction against DAPL’s continued operation, which was denied by the District Court in May 2021. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is currently conducting an environmental impact statement, which is expected to be complete in 2022 and we expect that DAPL will remain in operation while the environmental impact statement is being completed.

The Arrow gathering system currently connects to the DAPL, Hiland, Tesoro and True Companies’ Bridger Four Bears pipelines, providing significant downstream delivery capacity for our Arrow customers. Additionally, we can transport Arrow crude volumes to our COLT Hub facility by pipeline or truck, which mitigates the impact to our producers with the ability to access multiple markets out of the basin.

Regulatory Matters

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued a Notice of Inquiry (NOI) on April 19, 2018 (2018 NOI) initiating a review of its policies on certification of natural gas pipelines, including an examination of its long-standing Policy Statement on Certification of New Interstate Natural Gas Pipeline Facilities (1999 Policy Statement), issued in 1999, that is used to determine whether to grant certificates for new pipeline projects. On February 18, 2021, the FERC issued another NOI (2021 NOI), reopening its review of the 1999 Policy Statement. Comments on the 2021 NOI were due on May 26, 2021, and although the FERC has not taken any further action regarding the 2018 NOI or 2021 NOI, we are unable to predict what, if any, changes may be proposed as a result of the NOIs that will affect our natural gas pipeline operations or when such proposals, if any, might become effective.

How We Evaluate Our Operations

We evaluate our overall business performance based primarily on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We do not utilize depreciation, amortization and accretion expense in our key measures because we focus our performance management on cash flow generation and our assets have long useful lives.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA - We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are widely accepted financial indicators of a company’s operational performance and its ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and make distributions. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to our investors because it allows them to use the same performance measure analyzed internally by our management to evaluate the performance of our businesses and investments without regard to the manner in which they are financed or our capital structure. EBITDA is defined as income before income taxes, plus debt-related costs (interest and debt expense, net and loss on modification/extinguishment of debt) and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense. Adjusted EBITDA considers the adjusted earnings impact of our unconsolidated affiliates by adjusting our equity earnings or losses from our unconsolidated affiliates to reflect our proportionate share (based on the distribution percentage) of their EBITDA, excluding gains and losses on long-lived assets and other impairments. Adjusted EBITDA also considers the impact of certain significant items, such as unit-based compensation charges, gains or losses on long-lived assets, impairments of goodwill, third party costs incurred related to potential and completed acquisitions, certain environmental remediation costs, the change in fair value of commodity inventory-related derivative contracts, costs associated with the realignment and restructuring of our operations and corporate structure, and other transactions identified in a specific reporting period. The change in fair value of commodity inventory-related derivative contracts is considered in determining Adjusted EBITDA given that the timing of recognizing gains and losses on these derivative contracts differs from the recognition of revenue for the related underlying sale of inventory to which these derivatives relate. Changes in the fair value of other derivative contracts is not considered in determining Adjusted EBITDA given the relatively short-term nature of those

Table of Contents

derivative contracts. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, as they do not include deductions for items such as depreciation, amortization and accretion, interest and income taxes, which are necessary to maintain our business. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating cash flow or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations may vary among entities, so our computation may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.

Below is a discussion of the factors that impacted EBITDA by segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020.

Gathering and Processing

EBITDA for our gathering and processing segment increased by approximately $24.0 million and $144.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. Our gathering and processing segment’s EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were impacted by losses we recorded related to our long-lived assets, which are further described below, and an $80.3 million goodwill impairment recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 related to our Jackalope operations (see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2 for a further discussion of this impairment).

Our gathering and processing segment’s revenues increased by approximately $106.7 million and $240.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, while our costs of product/services sold increased by approximately $86.9 million and $194.4 million during those same periods. The increases were primarily driven by higher volumes on our Arrow system (described below) and higher average prices (i.e., more than an 75% increase in commodity prices during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020) that our gathering and processing segment realized on its agreements under which it purchases and sells crude oil, natural gas and NGLs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, Arrow’s natural gas gathering and processing volumes increased by 17% and 14%, respectively and during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Arrow’s natural gas gathering and processing volumes increased by 27% and 28%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. Also contributing to the increase in our gathering and processing segment’s revenues and costs of product/services sold were higher gathering and processing volumes on our Jackalope system during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to its major customer bringing production back online during late 2020 and early 2021. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, Jackalope’s natural gas gathering and processing volumes increased by 41% and 37%, respectively. Partially offsetting the increase in our gathering and processing segment’s revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were lower revenues from our Fayetteville operations due to the sale of these assets in October 2020.

Our gathering and processing segment’s operations and maintenance expenses decreased by approximately $10.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to the sale of our Fayetteville assets in October 2020 and efforts we undertook starting in the second quarter of 2020 to reduce costs in response to lower commodity prices during that period. Our gathering and processing segment’s operations and maintenance expenses were relatively flat during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

Our gathering and processing segment’s EBITDA was impacted by a loss on long-lived assets of approximately $19 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 related to the abandonment and dismantlement of certain of our Marcellus West Union compressor station assets. For a further discussion on the abandonment and dismantlement of our Marcellus West Union compressor station assets, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 2. Our gathering and processing segment’s EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was impacted by a loss on long-lived assets of approximately $19.9 million related to the sale of our Fayetteville assets in October 2020. In addition, during the nine months

Table of Contents

ended September 30, 2020, we recorded a loss on long-lived assets of approximately $2.7 million related to the retirement of certain water gathering lines on our Arrow system.

Our gathering and processing segment’s EBITDA was also impacted by an increase in equity earnings of approximately $4 million from our Crestwood Permian equity investment during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, Crestwood Permian experienced an increase in its natural gas gathering and processing revenues and volumes primarily due to its customers connecting more wells to its system during 2021 as a result of the increases in commodity prices compared to the same periods in 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Crestwood Permian experienced an increase in its water gathering revenues and volumes compared to the same period in 2020 primarily due to placing in-service its produced water gathering and disposal system in late second quarter of 2020. Partially offsetting these increases during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were higher electricity costs experienced during the first quarter of 2021 due to the unusual weather conditions experienced during that period.

Storage and Transportation

EBITDA for our storage and transportation segment decreased by approximately $11.0 million and $157.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. Our EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was impacted by a reduction to the equity earnings from our Stagecoach Gas investment as further discussed below.

During the both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, COLT’s rail loading volumes decreased by 4% compared to the same periods in 2020 due to lower demand for rail loading services which resulted in a decrease in revenues of approximately $1.1 million and $3.2 million. Our storage and transportation segment’s costs of product/services sold and operations and maintenance expenses were relatively flat during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020.

Our storage and transportation segment’s EBITDA was also impacted by a net decrease in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020. In July 2021, Stagecoach Gas sold certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan, which resulted in a decrease in equity earnings from our Stagecoach Gas equity investment of approximately $9.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to our 2021 results not reflecting a full quarter of equity earnings from the Stagecoach Gas assets which were sold. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, our earnings from our Stagecoach Gas equity investment were reduced by approximately $155.4 million as a result of recording our proportionate share of a loss on long-lived assets (including goodwill) recorded by our Stagecoach Gas equity investment related to the sale of Stagecoach Gas. In addition, our earnings from unconsolidated affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were also reduced by our proportionate share of transaction costs of approximately $3.0 million related to the sale of the Stagecoach Gas equity investment. For a further discussion of these matters, see Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 5. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, earnings from our Tres Holdings equity investment increased by approximately $8.9 million compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to higher revenues from gas inventory sales and an increase in demand for its storage and transportation services due to the unusually cold weather experienced during early 2021 compared to 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, earnings from our PRBIC equity investment increased by $4.4 million compared to the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of recording our proportionate share of a loss on long-lived assets impairment recorded by our PRBIC equity investment during 2020.

Marketing, Supply and Logistics

EBITDA for our marketing, supply and logistics segment decreased by approximately $49.7 million and $42.9 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, which was driven primarily by unrealized losses on our price risk management activities during 2021, which is further described below. Our marketing, supply and logistics segment’s revenues increased by approximately $601.5 million and $1,351.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, while our costs of product/services sold increased by $653.9 million and $1,397.6 million during those same periods.

Our NGL marketing and logistics operations experienced an increase in revenues of approximately $415.5 million and $892.6 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, and an increase in its costs of product/services of approximately $464.1 million and $938.9 million during those same periods. These increases were primarily due to increases in NGL prices during 2021 compared to 2020 as a result of overall increases in commodity

Table of Contents

prices and the unusually cold weather experienced during early 2021 compared to 2020. Our NGL marketing and logistics operations’ costs of product/services sold increased more than its revenues primarily due to the impact that the significant increase in crude, natural gas and NGL commodity prices (described above) had on our price risk management activities that primarily hedged our company-wide commodity exposures during 2021. Included in our costs of product/services sold was a loss of $53.4 million and $94.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and a loss of $1.8 million and a gain of $13.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 related to our price risk management activities. Partially offsetting the impact of our price risk management activities was the impact of the operating results of the NGL assets acquired from Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (Plains) in April 2020, which increased our ability to capture additional opportunities in the markets in which these assets operate.

Our crude and natural gas marketing operations experienced an increase in its revenues of approximately $186.0 million and $459.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, and an increase in its product costs of approximately $189.8 million and $458.7 million during those same periods. These increases were driven primarily driven by an increase in marketing activity surrounding our crude-related operations primarily in the Bakken as a result of higher commodity prices and an increase in marketing activity surrounding our natural-gas related operations driven by unusual winter weather conditions experience during early 2021.

Other EBITDA Results

General and Administrative Expenses. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, our general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $6 million compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to higher unit-based compensation charges driven by higher average awards outstanding under our long-term incentive plans. Crestwood Midstream’s general and administrative expenses were relatively flat during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to the impact of cost reductions we under took beginning in the second quarter of 2020. Crestwood Equity’s general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $3.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to transaction costs that were expensed related to the Crestwood Holdings Transactions discussed in Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 1.

Items not affecting EBITDA include the following:

Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion Expense. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020, our depreciation, amortization and accretion expense increased by approximately $4 million and $5 million, respectively, primarily due to acquisition of the NGL assets acquired from Plains in April 2020, placing in-service the expansion of our processing capacity at our Bucking Horse processing facility on our Powder River Basin system in early 2020, and the expansion of our gathering and processing facilities at our Arrow system. Partially offsetting these increases was lower depreciation, amortization and accretion expense due to the sale of our Fayetteville assets in late 2020.

Interest and Debt Expense, Net. Interest and debt expense, net decreased by approximately $2.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to lower average outstanding balances on our Crestwood Midstream credit facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, our interest and debt expense, net increased by approximately $1.7 million compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to the issuance of $700 million unsecured senior notes in January 2021 and lower capitalized interest period over period due to the timing of growth capital projects primarily in the Powder River Basin, partially offset by lower average outstanding balances on our Crestwood Midstream credit facility.

The following table provides a summary of interest and debt expense (in millions):

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $6.7 million in conjunction with the redemption of our 2023 Senior Notes.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

Crestwood Equity is a holding company that derives all of its operating cash flow from its operating subsidiaries. Our principal sources of liquidity include cash generated by operating activities from our subsidiaries, distributions from our joint ventures, borrowings under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility, and sales of equity and debt securities. Our equity investments use cash from their respective operations and contributions from us to fund their operating activities, maintenance and growth capital expenditures, and service their outstanding indebtedness. We believe our liquidity sources and operating cash flows are sufficient to address our future operating, debt service and capital requirements.

We make quarterly cash distributions to our common unitholders within approximately 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter in an aggregate amount equal to our available cash for such quarter. On October 14, 2021, we declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.625 per unit to our common unitholders, which will be paid on November 12, 2021 and was consistent with the distribution paid in August 2021. Based on our financial performance during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and our estimates of our financial performance for future quarters, we believe the current level of distributions is appropriate. As described above, the Crestwood Holdings Transactions resulted in Crestwood Equity acquiring and cancelling approximately 11.5 million common units, which decreased our anticipated annual distributions (at the current annual rate of $2.50 per unit) by approximately $29 million per year and eliminates any future consideration by our board of directors regarding the level of distributions to our unitholders of any risks created by Crestwood Holdings’ debt (which was fully repaid as of September 30, 2021). We also pay quarterly cash distributions of approximately $15 million to our preferred unitholders and beginning with the first quarter of 2021, we pay quarterly cash distributions of approximately $10 million to Crestwood Niobrara’s non-controlling partner. We believe our operating cash flows will exceed cash distributions to our partners, preferred unitholders and non-controlling partner, and as a result, we will have adequate operating cash flows as a source of liquidity for our growth capital expenditures.

In March 2021, Crestwood Equity’s board of directors authorized a $175 million common unit and preferred unit repurchase program effective through December 31, 2022. Pursuant to the program, we may purchase common and preferred units from time to time in the open market in accordance with applicable securities laws at current market prices. The timing and amount of purchases under the program will be determined based on growth capital opportunities, financial performance and outlook, and other factors, including acquisition opportunities and market conditions. The unit repurchase program does not obligate us to purchase any specific dollar amount or number of units and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

As of September 30, 2021, we had $985.3 million of available capacity under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility considering the most restrictive debt covenants in the credit agreement. As of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants applicable to the credit facility and senior notes. We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we redeemed and cancelled approximately $687.2 million of principal outstanding under the 2023 Senior Notes, utilizing a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes and borrowings under our Crestwood Midstream credit facility. In July 2021, Stagecoach Gas closed on the sale of certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan and distributed to us approximately $614 million as our proportionate share of the gross proceeds received from the sale. We utilized approximately $3 million of these proceeds to pay transaction costs related to the sale described above, $40 million of these proceeds to pay our contingent consideration obligation and related accrued interest, and the remainder of these proceeds to repay a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Crestwood Midstream credit facility.

Cash Flows

The following table provides a summary of Crestwood Equity’s cash flows by category (in millions):


	Nine Months Ended
	September 30,
	2021		2020
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	372.9	$	295.3
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	$	582.9	$	(297.7)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(955.5)	$	(8.8)

Operating Activities

Our operating cash flows increased by approximately $77.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in net cash inflow from working capital of approximately $87.9 million, driven mostly by the sale of higher levels of NGL inventory at the close of the winter season during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to increased activity primarily from the NGL assets acquired from Plains during the second quarter of 2020. Partially offsetting this net increase was higher costs of product/services sold of approximately $1,591.5 million, partially offset by higher operating revenues of approximately $1,588.8 million primarily from our marketing, supply and logistics segment and gathering and processing segment as discussed in Results of Operations above. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, our equity earnings from our Stagecoach Gas equity investment were lower due to the sale of certain of its assets in July 2021 which resulted in a reduction in our net operating cash flows compared to the same period in 2020.

Investing Activities

Capital Expenditures. The energy midstream business is capital intensive, requiring significant investments for the acquisition or development of new facilities. We categorize our capital expenditures as either:

•growth capital expenditures, which are made to construct additional assets, expand and upgrade existing systems, or acquire additional assets; or

•maintenance capital expenditures, which are made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets, extend their useful lives or comply with regulatory requirements.

Our growth capital expenditures during the year will increase the services we can provide to our customers and the operating efficiencies of our systems. We expect to finance our capital expenditures with a combination of cash generated by our operating subsidiaries, distributions received from our equity investments and borrowings under our credit facility. Additional commitments or expenditures will be made at our discretion, and any discontinuation of these construction projects could result in less future operating cash flows and earnings.

The following table summarizes our capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (in millions):


Growth capital (1)	$	40.9
Maintenance capital	13.1
Other (2)	1.8
Purchases of property, plant and equipment	$	55.8

(1)Includes $19.5 million paid related to outstanding litigation on the construction of the Bear Den II cryogenic processing plant.

(2)Represents purchases of property, plant and equipment that are reimbursable by third parties.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we contributed approximately $6.9 million and $6.0 million to our Tres Holdings equity investment for its operating purposes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we contributed approximately $3.3 million to our Crestwood Permian equity investment primarily to fund its expansion projects. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we received a distribution from Stagecoach Gas of approximately $614 million, which represented our proportionate share of the gross proceeds received by Stagecoach Gas related to the sale of certain of its assets to Kinder Morgan as discussed above.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2021, Crestwood Equity and Crestwood Midstream carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of their respective management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, as to the effectiveness, design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Crestwood Equity and Crestwood Midstream maintain controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in their respective reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC, and that information is accumulated and communicated to their respective management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Such management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners, do not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures or the internal controls will prevent and/or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Crestwood Equity’s and Crestwood Midstream’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of their General Partners concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to Crestwood Equity’s or Crestwood Midstream’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect Crestwood Equity’s or Crestwood Midstream’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, of this Form 10-Q is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

Our business faces many risks. Any of the risks discussed below or elsewhere in this Form 10-Q or our other SEC filings could have a material impact on our business, financial position or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our business operations. For a detailed discussion of the risk factors that should be understood by any investor contemplating investment in our common units, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as supplemented by the risk factors set forth below. There has been no material change in the risk factors set forth in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K other than those set forth below.

Terrorist attacks or “cyber security” events, or the threat of them, may adversely affect our business.

The U.S. government has issued public warnings that indicate that pipelines and other assets might be specific targets for terrorist organizations or “cyber security” events. These potential targets might include our pipeline systems or operating systems and may affect our ability to operate or control our pipeline assets or utilize our customer service systems. Also, destructive forms of protests and opposition by extremists and other disruptions, including acts of sabotage or eco-terrorism, against oil and natural gas development and production or midstream processing or transportation activities could potentially result in damage or injury to persons, property or the environment or lead to extended interruptions of our or our customers’ operations. Additionally, the oil and natural gas industry has become increasingly dependent on digital technologies to conduct certain processing and operational activities. At the same time, companies in our industry have been the targets of cyber-attacks and ransomware demands, and it is possible that the attacks in our industry will continue and grow in number. In addition, to assist in conducting our business, we rely on information technology systems and data hosting facilities, including systems and facilities that are hosted by third parties and with respect to which we have limited visibility and control. These systems and facilities may be vulnerable to a variety of evolving cyber security risks or information security breaches, including unauthorized access, denial-of-service attacks, malicious software, data privacy breaches by employees, insiders or others with authorized access, cyber or phishing-attacks, ransomware, malware, social engineering, physical breaches or other actions. These cyber security risks could result in the unauthorized release, gathering, monitoring, misuse, loss or destruction of proprietary, personal data and other information, or other disruption of our business operations. In addition, certain cyber incidents, such as advanced persistent threats, may remain undetected for an extended period. The occurrence of any of these events, including any attack or threat targeted at our pipelines and other assets, could cause a substantial decrease in revenues, increased costs or other financial losses, exposure or loss of customer information, damage to our reputation or business relationships, increased regulation or litigation, disruption of our operations and/or inaccurate information reported from our operations. These developments may subject our operations to increased risks, as well as increased costs, and, depending on their ultimate magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Although we have adopted controls and systems, including updating our systems with recent patches and updates from our software providers and procuring limited insurance for certain cyber-related losses, that are designed to protect information and mitigate the risk of data loss and other cyber security events, such measures cannot entirely eliminate cyber security threats, particularly as these threats continue to evolve and grow. Furthermore the controls and systems we have installed may be breached or be inadequate to address a risk that arises. We are not aware of any cyber security events that impacted our company that have or could have resulted in a material loss; however there is no assurance that such a breach has not already occurred and we are unaware of it, and that we will not suffer such a loss in the future.

We are or may become subject to cyber security and data privacy laws, regulations, litigation and directives relating to our processing of personal data.

Several jurisdictions in which we operate throughout the United States may have laws governing how we must respond to a cyber incident that results in the unauthorized access, disclosure or loss of personal data. Additionally, new laws and regulations governing cybersecurity, data privacy and unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, including international comprehensive data privacy regulations and recent U.S. state legislation in California, Virginia and Colorado (some of which, among other things, provides for a private right of action), pose increasingly complex compliance challenges

Table of Contents

and could potentially elevate our costs over time. Our business involves collection, uses and other processing of personal data of our employees, contractors, suppliers and service providers. As legislation continues to develop and cyber incidents continue to evolve, we will likely be required to expend significant resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures to comply with such legislation and to detect, investigate and remediate vulnerabilities to cyber incidents and report any cyber incidents to the applicable regulatory authorities. In particular, in response to recent ransomware attacks, the Department of Homeland Security has issued a security directive to certain pipeline companies requiring the companies to appoint personnel, perform cybersecurity assessments, and report incidents and other information. Any failure by us, or a company we acquire, to comply with such laws and regulations could result in reputational harm, loss of goodwill, penalties, liabilities, and/or mandated changes in our business practices.

Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On March 30, 2021, Crestwood Gas Services Holdings LLC, a company controlled by an investment fund sponsored by First Reserve, closed on a private placement of six million common units representing limited partner interests of CEQP for gross proceeds of $132 million. CEQP did not sell any common units and did not receive any proceeds from the private placement. The securities offered in the private placement were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or any state securities laws, and were sold in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(7) of the Securities Act of 1933.

The table below presents the CEQP’s common unit repurchase activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021:

(2)On March 25, 2021, CEQP’s board of directors approved a plan to repurchase common and preferred units in one or more open-market transactions or in privately negotiated transactions, with an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $175 million exclusive of any fees, commissions or other expenses. The repurchase program expires December 31, 2022. No units have been purchased under the program during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
