1. Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of the Business

MPLX LP is a diversified, large-cap master limited partnership formed by Marathon Petroleum Corporation that owns and operates midstream energy infrastructure and logistics assets, and provides fuels distribution services. We are engaged in the gathering, transportation, storage and distribution of crude oil, refined products, other hydrocarbon-based products and renewables; the gathering, processing and transportation of natural gas; and the transportation, fractionation, storage and marketing of NGLs. MPLX’s principal executive office is located in Findlay, Ohio. MPLX was formed on March 27, 2012 as a Delaware limited partnership and completed its initial public offering on October 31, 2012.

MPLX’s business consists of two segments based on the nature of services it offers: Logistics and Storage (“L&S”), which relates primarily to crude oil, refined products, other hydrocarbon-based products and renewables; and Gathering and Processing (“G&P”), which relates primarily to natural gas and NGLs. See Note 78 for additional information regarding the operations and results of these segments.

Basis of Presentation

These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of MPLX’s management, these statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. These interim consolidated financial statements, including the notes, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim period financial statements and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain information derived from our audited annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, has been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements.

These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.2023. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

MPLX’s consolidated financial statements include all majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. For non-wholly owned consolidated subsidiaries, the interests owned by third parties have been recorded as Noncontrolling interests on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. MPLX’s investments in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for using the equity method. MPLX’s investments in VIEs in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are also accounted for using the equity method.

Certain prior period financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed the rules pending judicial review. Pending the results of the judicial review, the disclosure requirements are effective for the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. We are evaluating the impact these rules will have on our disclosures and monitoring the status of the judicial review.

3. Acquisition
Utica Midstream Acquisition
On March 22, 2024, MPLX used $625 million of cash on hand to purchase additional ownership interest in existing joint ventures and gathering assets (“Utica Midstream Acquisition”), which will enhance our position in the Utica basin. Prior to the acquisition, we owned an indirect interest in Ohio Gathering Company L.L.C. (“OGC”) and a direct interest in Ohio Condensate Company L.L.C. (“OCC”) and now own a combined 73 percent interest in OGC, a 100 percent interest in OCC, and a 100 percent interest in a dry gas gathering system in the Utica basin, including 53 miles of gathering pipeline and three dehydration units with a combined capacity of approximately 620 MMcf/d. OGC continues to be accounted for as an equity method investment, as MPLX did not obtain control of OGC as a result of the transaction. The acquisition date fair value of our investment in OGC exceeded our portion of the underlying net assets of the joint venture by approximately $86 million. OCC was previously accounted for as an equity method investment, and it is now reflected as a consolidated subsidiary within our consolidated financial results. The results for the acquired business are reported within our G&P segment.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination requiring all the acquired assets and liabilities to be remeasured to fair value resulting in a consolidated fair value of net assets and liabilities of $625 million. The preliminary determination of the fair value includes $518 million related to acquired interests in the joint ventures and the remaining balance related to other acquired assets and liabilities. The revaluation of MPLX’s existing 62 percent equity method investment in OCC resulted in a $20 million gain, which is included in Other income within the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The fair value of equity method investments was based on a discounted cash flow model.

Related Party Loan

MPLX is party to a loan agreement (the “MPC Loan Agreement”) with MPC. Under the terms of the MPC Loan Agreement, MPC extends loans to MPLX on a revolving basis as requested by MPLX and as agreed to by MPC. The borrowing capacity of the MPC Loan Agreement is $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of all loans outstanding at any one time. The MPC Loan Agreement is scheduled to expire, and borrowings under the loan agreement are scheduled to mature and become due and payable, on July 31, 2024, provided that MPC may demand payment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts (if any), at any time prior to maturity. Borrowings under the MPC Loan Agreement bear interest at one-month term SOFR adjusted upward by 0.10 percent plus 1.25 percent or such lower rate as would be applicable to such loans under the MPLX Credit Agreement as discussed in Note 11.

Related Party Revenue

Related party sales to MPC primarily consist of crude oil and refined products pipeline and trucking transportation services based on tariff or contracted rates; storage, terminal and fuels distribution services based on contracted rates; and marine transportation services. Related party sales to MPC also consist of revenue related to volume deficiency credits.

MPLX also has operating agreements with MPC under which it receives a fee for operating MPC’s retained pipeline assets and a fixed annual fee for providing oversight and management services required to run the marine business. MPLX also receives management fee revenue for engineering, construction and administrative services for operating certain of its equity method investments. Amounts earned under these agreements are classified as Other income - related parties in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Certain product sales to MPC and other related parties net to zero within the consolidated financial statements as the transactions are recorded net due to the terms of the agreements under which such product was sold.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, these sales totaled $281 million and $574 million, respectively.

Related Party Expenses

MPC charges MPLX for executive management services and certain general and administrative services provided to MPLX under the terms of our omnibus agreements (“Omnibus charges”) and for certain employee services provided to MPLX under employee services agreements (“ESA charges”). Omnibus charges and ESA charges are classified as Rental cost of sales - related parties, Purchases - related parties, or General and administrative expenses depending on the nature of the asset or activity with which the costs are associated. In addition to these agreements, MPLX purchases products from MPC, makes payments to MPC in its capacity as general contractor to MPLX, and has certain rent and lease agreements with MPC.

Related Party Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities with related parties appearing in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are detailed in the table below. This table identifies the various components of related party assets and liabilities, including those associated with leases and deferred revenue on minimum volume commitments. If MPC fails to meet its minimum committed volumes, MPC will pay MPLX a deficiency payment based on the terms of the agreement. The deficiency amounts received under these agreements (excluding payments received under agreements classified as sales-type leases) are recorded as Current liabilities - related parties. In many cases, MPC may then apply the amount of any such deficiency payments as a credit for volumes in excess of its minimum volume commitment in future periods under the terms of the applicable agreements. MPLX recognizes related party revenues for the deficiency payments when credits are used for volumes in excess of minimum quarterly volume commitments, where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods or upon the expiration of the credits. The use or expiration of the

credits is a decrease in Current liabilities - related parties. Deficiency payments under agreements that have been classified as sales-type leases are recorded as a reduction against the corresponding lease receivable. In addition, capital projects MPLX undertakes at the request of MPC are reimbursed in cash and recognized as revenue over the remaining term of the applicable agreements or in some cases, as a contribution from MPC.

7.8. Segment Information

MPLX’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer of its general partner. The CODM reviews MPLX’s discrete financial information, makes operating decisions, assesses financial performance and allocates resources on a type of service basis. MPLX has two reportable segments: L&S and G&P. Each of these segments is organized and managed based upon the nature of the products and services it offers.

L&S – gathers, transports, stores and distributes crude oil, refined products, other hydrocarbon-based products and renewables. Also includes the operation of refining logistics, fuels distribution and inland marine businesses, terminals, rail facilities, and storage caverns.
G&P – gathers, processes and transports natural gas; and transports, fractionates, stores and markets NGLs.

Our CODM evaluates the performance of our segments using Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Amounts included in net income and excluded from Segment Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (iv) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (v) gain on sales-type leases; (vi) impairment expense; (vii)(vi) noncontrolling interests; and (viii)(vii) other adjustments, as applicable. These items are either: (i) believed to be non-recurring in nature; (ii) not believed to be allocable or controlled by the segment; or (iii) are

Level 3 instruments relate to an embedded derivative liability for a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement. The fair value calculation for these Level 3 instruments used significant unobservable inputs including: (1) NGL prices interpolated and extrapolated due to inactive markets ranging from $0.54$0.66 to $1.34$1.61 per gallon with a weighted average of $0.72$0.83 per gallon and (2) thea 100 percent probability of renewal of 100 percent for the five-year renewal term of the gas purchase commitment and related keep-whole processing agreement. Increases or decreases in the fractionation spread result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the embedded derivative liability, respectively.

Fair Values – Non-recurring
Non-recurring fair value measurements and disclosures in 2024 relate to the purchase of additional ownership interest in existing joint ventures and gathering assets as discussed in Note 3.
Fair Values – Reported

We believe the carrying value of our other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, receivables from related parties, lease receivables, lease receivables from related parties, accounts payable, and payables to related parties, approximate fair value. MPLX’s fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including the duration of the instruments, MPC’s investment-grade credit rating, and the historical incurrence of and expected future insignificance of bad debt expense, which includes an evaluation of counterparty credit risk. The recorded value of the amounts outstanding under the bank revolving credit facility, if any, approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate that approximates current market rates. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value, based on available market information (see Note 10)11).

The fair value of MPLX’s debt is estimated based on prices from recent trade activity and is categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The following table summarizes the fair value and carrying value of our third-party debt, excluding finance leases and unamortized debt issuance costs:

10.11. Derivatives

As of June 30, 2023, MPLX had the following outstanding commodity contracts that were executed to manage the price risk associated with sales of propane during 2023:

Derivative contracts not designated as hedging instrumentsFinancial PositionNotional Quantity
Propane (gal)Short33,970,000 

Embedded Derivative - MPLX has a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement with a producer customer in the Southern AppalachianAppalachia region expiring in December 2027. The customer has the unilateral option to extend the agreement for one five-year term through December 2032. For accounting purposes, the natural gas purchase commitment and the term extending option have been aggregated into a single compound embedded derivative. The probability of the customer exercising its option is determined based on assumptions about the customer’s potential business strategy decision points that may exist at the time they would elect whether to renew the contract. The changes in fair value of this compound embedded derivative are based on the difference between the contractual and index pricing, the probability of the producer customer exercising its option to extend, and the estimated favorability of these contracts compared to current market conditions. The changes in fair value are recorded in earnings through Purchased product costs in the Consolidated Statements of Income. For further information regarding the fair value measurement of derivative instruments, see Note 9.10. As of June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022,2023, the estimated fair value of this contract was a liability of $53$69 million and $61 million, respectively.

Table of Contents
Certain derivative positions are subject to master netting agreements,agreements; therefore, MPLX has elected to offset derivative assets and liabilities that are legally permissible to be offset. As of June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022,2023, there were no derivative assets or liabilities that were offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We make a distinction between realized or unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is outstanding, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss is reversed, and the realized gain or loss of the contract is recorded. The impact of MPLX’s derivative contracts not designated as hedging instruments and the location of gains and losses recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income is summarized below:

On February 9, 2023, MPLX issued $1.6 billion aggregate principal amount of notes, consisting of $1.1 billion principal amount of 5.00 percent senior notes due 2033 (the “2033 Senior Notes”) and $500 million principal amount of 5.65 percent senior notes due 2053 (the “2053 Senior Notes”). The 2033 Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 99.170 percent of par with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 1, 2023. The 2053 Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 99.536 percent of par with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 1, 2023.

On February 15, 2023, MPLX used $600 million of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2033 Senior Notes and 2053 Senior Notes described above to redeem all of the outstanding Series B preferred units. On March 13, 2023, MPLX used the remaining proceeds from the offering, and cash on hand, to redeem all of MPLX’s and MarkWest’s $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.50 percent senior notes due July 2023, at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The redemption resulted in a loss of $9 million due to the immediate expense recognition of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs for the three months ended March 31, 2023, which is included on the Consolidated Statements of Income as Other financial costs.

Contract Balances

Our receivables are primarily associated with customer contracts. Payment terms vary by product or service type,type; however, the period between invoicing and payment is not significant. Included within the receivables are balances related to commodity sales on behalf of our producer customers, for which we remit the net sales price back to the producer customers upon completion of the sale. These balances are included in Receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Under certain of our contracts, we recognize revenues in excess of billings which we present as contract assets. Contract assets typically relate to deficiency payments related to minimum volume commitments and aid in construction agreements where the revenue recognized and MPLX’s rights to consideration for work completed exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract assets are included in Other current assets and Other noncurrent assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Under certain of our contracts, we receive payments in advance of satisfying our performance obligations, which are recorded as contract liabilities. Contract liabilities, which we present as Deferred revenue and Long-term deferred revenue, typically relate to advance payments for aid in construction agreements and deferred customer credits associated with makeup rights and minimum volume commitments. Related to minimum volume commitments, breakage is estimated and recognized into service revenue in instances where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods. We classify contract liabilities as current or long-term based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue.

14.16. Commitments and Contingencies

MPLX is the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Some of these matters are discussed below. For matters for which MPLX has not recorded a liability, MPLX is unable to estimate a range of possible loss because the issues involved have not been fully developed through pleadings, discovery or court proceedings. However, the ultimate resolution of some of these contingencies could, individually or in the aggregate, be material.

Environmental Matters

MPLX is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for non-compliance.

Accrued liabilities for remediation totaled $17 million at both June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and $19 million December 31, 2022.2023. It is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation costs that might be incurred or the penalties, if any, that may be imposed.

MPLX is involved in environmental enforcement matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these environmental matters will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Other Legal Proceedings

In July 2020, Tesoro High Plains Pipeline Company, LLC (“THPP”), a subsidiary of MPLX, received a Notification of Trespass Determination from the Bureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”) relating to a portion of the Tesoro High Plains Pipeline that crosses the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota. The notification demanded the immediate cessation of pipeline operations and assessed trespass damages of approximately $187 million. After subsequent appeal proceedings and in compliance with a new order issued by the BIA, in December 2020, THPP paid approximately $4 million in assessed trespass damages and ceased use of the portion of the pipeline that crosses the property at issue. In March 2021, the BIA issued an order purporting to vacate the BIA's prior orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass and direct the Regional Director of the BIA to reconsider the issue of THPP’s alleged trespass and issue a new order. In April 2021, THPP filed a lawsuit in the District of North Dakota against the United States of America, the U.S. Department of the Interior and the BIA (together,(collectively, the “U.S. Government Parties”) challenging the March 2021 order purporting to vacate all previous orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass. On February 8, 2022, the U.S. Government Parties filed their answer and counterclaims to THPP’s suit claiming THPP is in continued trespass with respect to the pipeline and seekseeking disgorgement of pipeline profits from June 1, 2013 to present, removal of the pipeline and remediation. We intendOn November 8, 2023, the District Court of North Dakota granted THPP’s motion to vigorously defend ourselves against thesesever and stay the U.S. Government Parties’ counterclaims. The case will proceed on the merits of THPP’s challenge to the March 2021 order purporting

to vacate all previous orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass. THPP continues not to operate that portion of the pipeline that crosses the property at issue.
MPLX is also a party to a number of other lawsuits and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these other lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Guarantees related to indebtedness of equity method investees

We hold a 9.19 percent indirect interest in a joint venture thatDakota Access, which owns and operates the Dakota Access Pipeline and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline projects, collectively referred to as the Bakken Pipeline system or DAPL.system. In 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (the “D.D.C.”) ordered the U.S.United States Army Corps of Engineers (“Army Corps”), which granted permits and an easement for the Bakken Pipeline system, to prepare an environmental impact statement (“EIS”) relating to an easement under Lake Oahe in North Dakota. The D.D.C. later vacated the easement. The EIS has been delayed and the Army Corps currently expects to releaseissued a draft EIS in 2023.

In May 2021,September 2023 detailing various options for the D.D.C. deniedeasement going forward, including denying the easement, approving the easement with additional measures, rerouting the easement, or approving the easement with no changes. The Army Corps has not selected a renewed request for an injunction to shut downpreferred alternative, but will make a decision in its final review, after considering input from the pipeline while the EIS is being prepared. In June 2021, the D.D.C. issued an order dismissing without prejudice the tribes’ claims against the Dakota Access Pipeline. The litigation could be reopened or new litigation challenging the EIS, once completed, could be filed.public and other agencies. The pipeline remains operational.

operational while the Army Corps finalizes its decision which is expected to be issued by the end of 2024.
We have entered into a Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement whereby MPLX LP, along with the other joint venture owners in the Bakken Pipeline system, has agreed to make equity contributions to the joint venture upon certain events occurring to allow the entities that own and operate the Bakken Pipeline system to satisfy their senior note payment obligations. The senior notes were issued to repay amounts owed by the pipeline companies to fund the cost of construction of the Bakken Pipeline system.

If the vacatur of the easement results in a temporary shutdown of the pipeline, were temporarily shut down, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of funds required to pay interest accruing on the notes and any portion of the principal that matures while the pipeline is shutdown. MPLX also expects to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of any costs to remediate any deficiencies to reinstate the permiteasement and/or return the pipeline into operation. If the vacatur of the easement permit results in a permanent shutdown of the pipeline, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of the cost to redeem the bonds (including the one percent redemption premium required pursuant to the indenture governing the notes) and any accrued and unpaid interest. As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement were approximately $170 million.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time and in the ordinary course of business, MPLX and its affiliates provide guarantees of MPLX’s subsidiaries payment and performance obligations in the G&P segment. Certain natural gas processing and gathering arrangements require MPLX to construct new natural gas processing plants, natural gas gathering pipelines and NGL pipelines and contain certain fees and charges if specified construction milestones are not achieved for reasons other than force majeure. In certain cases, certain producers may have the right to cancel the processing arrangements if there are significant delays that are not due to force majeure. As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, management does not believe there are any indications that MPLX will not be able to meet the construction milestones, that force majeure does not apply or that such fees and charges will otherwise be triggered.

MPLX Overview

We are a diversified, large-cap master limited partnership formed by MPC in 2012 that owns and operates midstream energy infrastructure and logistics assets, and provides fuels distribution services. The business consists of two segments based on the nature of services it offers: Logistics and Storage (“L&S”) and Gathering and Processing (“G&P”). The
Our L&S segment primarily engages in the gathering, transportation, storagegathers, transports, stores and distribution ofdistributes crude oil, refined products, including renewable diesel, and other hydrocarbon-based products,products. Additionally, the segment markets refined products. The profitability of pipeline transportation operations primarily depends on tariff rates and renewables.the volumes shipped through the pipelines. The L&S segment also includesprofitability of marine operations primarily depends on the operationquantity and availability of our vessels and barges. The profitability of our terminal operations primarily depends on the throughput volumes at our terminals. The profitability of our fuels distribution services primarily depends on the sales volumes of certain refined products. The profitability of our refining logistics operations depends on the quantity and availability of our refining logistics assets. A majority of the crude oil and refined product shipments on our pipelines and marine vessels, the throughput at our terminals and refining logistics assets serve MPC and our fuels distribution services are used solely by MPC. We have various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements related to services provided to MPC. Under these agreements, we receive various commitments of minimum throughput, storage and inland marine businesses, terminals, rail facilities and storage caverns. The G&P segment provides gathering, processing and transportation of natural gasdistribution volumes as well as commitments to pay for all available capacity of certain assets. The volume of crude oil that we transport is directly affected by the supply of, and refiner demand for, crude oil in the markets served directly by our crude oil pipelines, terminals and marine operations. Key factors in this supply and demand balance are the production levels of crude oil by producers in various regions or fields, the availability and cost of alternative modes of transportation, fractionation, storagethe volumes of crude oil processed at refineries and marketing of NGLs.

transportation system maintenance levels. The volume of refined products that we transport, store, distribute and market is directly affected by the production levels of, and user demand for, refined products in the markets served by our refined product pipelines and marine operations. In most of our markets, demand for gasoline and distillate peaks during the summer driving season, which extends from May through September of each year, and declines during the fall and winter months. As with crude oil, other transportation alternatives and system maintenance levels influence refined product movements.
Our G&P segment gathers, processes and transports natural gas and transports, fractionates, stores and markets NGLs. NGL and natural gas prices are volatile and are impacted by changes in fundamental supply and demand, as well as market uncertainty, availability of NGL transportation and fractionation capacity and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. G&P segment profitability is affected by prevailing commodity prices primarily as a result of processing at our own or third‑party processing plants, purchasing and selling or gathering and transporting volumes of natural gas at index‑related prices and the cost of third‑party transportation and fractionation services. To the extent that commodity prices influence the level of natural gas drilling by our producer customers, such prices also affect profitability.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, DCF, adjusted free cash flow (“Adjusted FCF”), and Adjusted FCF after distributions. The amount of
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial performance measure used by management, industry analysts, investors, lenders, and DCF generated is considered byrating agencies to assess the board of directorsfinancial performance and operating results of our general partner in approving MPLX’s cash distributions.

ongoing business operations. Additionally, we believe adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors for trending, analyzing and benchmarking our operating results from period to period as compared to other companies that may have different financing and capital structures. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for: (i) provision for income taxes; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) depreciation and amortization; (iv) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (v) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (vi) gain on sales-type leases; (vii) impairment expense; (viii)(vii) noncontrolling interests; and (ix)(viii) other adjustments, as applicable.
DCF is a financial performance and liquidity measure used by management and by the board of directors of our general partner as a key component in the determination of cash distributions paid to unitholders. We also usebelieve DCF which weis an important financial measure for unitholders as an indicator of cash return on investment and to evaluate whether the partnership is generating sufficient cash flow to support quarterly distributions. In addition, DCF is commonly used by the investment community because the market value of publicly traded partnerships is based, in part, on DCF and cash distributions paid to unitholders. We define DCF as Adjusted EBITDA adjusted for: (i) deferred revenue impacts; (ii) sales-type lease payments, net of income; (iii) adjusted net interest and other financial costs; (iv) net maintenance capital expenditures; (v) equity method investment capital expenditures paid out; and (vi) other adjustments as deemed necessary.

Adjusted FCF and Adjusted FCF after distributions are financial liquidity measures used by management in the allocation of capital and to assess financial performance. We believe that unitholders may use this metric to analyze our ability to manage leverage and return capital. We define Adjusted FCF as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for: (i) net cash used in investing activities; (ii) cash contributions from MPC; and (iii) cash distributions to noncontrolling interests. We define Adjusted FCF after distributions as Adjusted FCF less base distributions to common and preferred unitholders.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, DCF, Adjusted FCF and Adjusted FCF after distributions provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and DCF are net income and net cash provided by operating activities while the GAAP measure
26

Table of Contents
most directly comparable to Adjusted FCF and Adjusted FCF after distributions is net cash provided by operating activities. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or net cash provided by operating activities as they have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF to their most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see Results of Operations.

Three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to three months ended June 30, 2022

Total revenues and other income decreased $250 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. The decrease was driven by lower product sales revenue as a result of lower NGL prices during the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022. The decrease was partially offset by higher throughput and rate escalations across the business and a $34 million increase in income from equity method investments primarily due to higher throughput.

Cost of revenues increased $25 million and rental cost of sales (including related party) decreased $32 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. These offsetting variances reflect the modification of a gathering and compression agreement in the third quarter of 2022 (“Third-Party Lease Modification”) which resulted in a change in the presentation of expenses from rental cost of sales to cost of revenues.

Purchased product costs decreased $309 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. This was primarily due to lower NGL prices of $393 million, partially offset by higher volumes of $90 million.

Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized increased $14 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. This was primarily due to refinancing maturing debt with fixed rate debt at higher interest rates in 2022 and 2023 in addition to taking on incremental debt in order to finance the redemption of the Series B preferred units in the first quarter of 2023. Other financial costs also benefited from higher interest earned during the second quarter of 2023. Refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for further information.

Six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to six months ended June 30, 2022

Total revenues and other income decreased $147 million in the first sixmonths of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022.

Seasonality

The volume of crude oil and refined products transported and stored utilizing our assets is affected by the level of supply and demand for crude oil and refined products in the markets served directly or indirectly by our assets. The majority of effects of seasonality on the L&S segment’s revenues are mitigated through the use of fee-based transportationcapacity-based agreements and storage services agreements with MPC that include minimum volume commitments.

37

Table of Contents
In our G&P segment, we experience minimal impacts from seasonal fluctuations which impact the demand for natural gas and NGLs and the related commodity prices caused by various factors including variations in weather patterns from year to year. We are able to manage the seasonality impacts through the execution of our marketing strategy. Overall, our exposure to the seasonality fluctuations is limited due to the nature of our fee-based business.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $52$64 million in the first sixthree months of 20232024 compared to the same period of 2022,2023, primarily due to improved results from operations partially offset by higher favorable working capital changes during the first sixthree months of 20222024 compared to the same period of 2023.

Net cash used in investing activities increased $80$776 million in the first sixthree months of 20232024 compared to the same period of 2022,2023, primarily due to the Utica Midstream Acquisition in the first quarter of 2024, as well as higher capital spending. The increase in the first six monthsquarter of 2023 was partially offset by2024 also reflects higher contributions to equity method investments for the first half of 2022, which includedincluding a $60$92 million contribution to our Bakken Pipeline joint ventureDakota Access to fund our share of a scheduled debt repayment by the joint venture.

Net cash used in financing activities decreased $260increased $106 million in the first sixthree months of 20232024 compared to the same period of 2022.2023. The decreaseincrease was driven by net borrowings inprimarily due to the first halfreturn of 2023 as comparedcapital to net repayments in the first half of 2022, resulting in a decreased use of cash of $854 million. There was also lower spending onunitholders through the unit repurchase program of $135 million induring the first halfthree months of 20232024, as well as higher distributions paid to unitholders of $55 million during the first three months of 2024 compared to the same period of 2022. The decrease in the use of cash was partially offset by the use of $600 million to redeem the Series B units and by $127 million of higher distributions paid to unitholders during the first six months of 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, as a result of the 10 percent increase in our base distribution effective for the third quarter of 2022.2023.

Debt and Liquidity Overview

On February 9, 2023, MPLX issued $1.6 billion aggregate principal amount of notes, consisting of $1.1 billion principal amount of 5.00 percent senior notes due 2033 (the “2033 Senior Notes”) and $500 million principal amount of 5.65 percent senior notes due 2053 (the “2053 Senior Notes”). The 2033 Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 99.170 percent of par with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 1, 2023. The 2053 Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 99.536 percent of par with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 1, 2023.

On February 15, 2023, MPLX used $600 million of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2033 Senior Notes and 2053 Senior Notes described above to redeem all of the outstanding Series B preferred units. On March 13, 2023, MPLX used the remaining proceeds from the offering, and cash on hand, to redeem all of MPLX’s and MarkWest’s $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.50 percent senior notes due July 2023, at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Our intention is to maintain an investment-grade credit profile. As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, the credit ratings on our senior unsecured debt were as follows:
Rating AgencyRating
Moody’sBaa2 (stable outlook)
Standard & Poor’sBBB (stable outlook)
FitchBBB (stable outlook)

The ratings reflect the respective views of the rating agencies and should not be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell or hold our securities. Although it is our intention to maintain a credit profile that supports an investment grade rating, there is no assurance that these ratings will continue for any given period of time. The ratings may be revised or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies if, in their respective judgments, circumstances so warrant. A rating from one rating agency should be evaluated independently of ratings from other rating agencies.

The agreements governing our debt obligations do not contain credit rating triggers that would result in the acceleration of interest, principal or other payments solely in the event that our credit ratings are downgraded. However, any downgrades in the credit ratings of our senior unsecured debt ratings to below investment grade ratings could, among other things, increase the applicable interest rates and other fees payable under the MPLX Credit Agreement and may limit our ability to obtain future financing, including refinancing existing indebtedness.

We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and access to capital markets. We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to meet our short-term and long-term funding requirements, including working capital requirements, capital expenditure requirements, contractual obligations, and quarterly cash distributions. Our material future obligations include interest on debt, payments of debt principal, purchase obligations including contracts to acquire plant, property and equipment, and our operating leases and service agreements. We may also, from time to time, repurchase our senior notes or preferred units in the open market, in tender offers, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise in such volumes, at market prices and upon such other terms as we deem appropriate and execute unit repurchases under our unit repurchase program.

The MPLXMPLX’s credit agreement (the “MPLX Credit AgreementAgreement”) matures in July 2027 and contains certain representations and warranties, affirmative and restrictive covenants and events of default that we consider to be usual and customary for an agreement of this type. The financial covenant requires MPLX to maintain a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt as of the end of each fiscal quarter to Consolidated EBITDA (both as defined in the MPLX Credit Agreement) for the prior four fiscal quarters of no greater than 5.0 to 1.0 (or 5.5 to 1.0 during the six-month period following certain acquisitions). Consolidated EBITDA is subject to adjustments for certain acquisitions completed and capital projects undertaken during the relevant period. Other covenants restrict us and/or certain of our subsidiaries from incurring debt,

Equity and Preferred Units Overview

Unit Repurchase Program

On August 2, 2022, we announced the board authorization for the repurchase of up to an additional $1.0 billion of MPLX common units held by the public. The authorization has no expiration date. We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market repurchases, negotiated block transactions, tender offers, accelerated unit repurchases tender offers or open market solicitations for units, some of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and amount of future repurchases if any, will dependdepends upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and such repurchases may be suspended, discontinued, or restarted at any time.

Series A Redeemable Preferred Unit Conversions
RedemptionDuring the three months ended March 31, 2024, certain Series A preferred unitholders exercised their rights to convert their Series A preferred units into approximately 10 million common units. Approximately 17 million Series A preferred units remain outstanding as of theMarch 31, 2024. Series B Preferred Units

On February 15, 2023, MPLXA preferred unitholders exercised its righttheir rights to redeem all 600,000 outstandingconvert an additional 5 million Series A preferred units of 6.875 percent Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (the “Series B preferred units”). MPLX paid unitholders the Series B preferred unit redemption price of $1,000 per unit. See Note 5into common units subsequent to March 31, 2024, but prior to the unaudited consolidateddate the financial statements for more information.

Distributions on the Series B preferred units were payable semi-annually in arrears on the 15th day, or the first business day thereafter, of February and August of each year up to and including February 15, 2023. In accordance with these terms, MPLX made a final cash distribution of $21 million to Series B preferred unitholders on February 15, 2023, in conjunction with the redemption.

Distributions

We intend to pay a minimum quarterly distribution to the holders of our common units of $0.2625 per unit, or $1.05 per unit on an annualized basis, to the extent we have sufficient cash from our operations after the establishment of cash reserves and the payment of costs and expenses, including reimbursements of expenses to our general partner. The amount of distributions paid under our policy and the decision to make any distributions is determined by our general partner, taking into consideration the terms of our partnership agreement. Such minimum distribution would equate to $263 million per quarter, or $1,051 million per year, based on the number of common units outstanding at June 30, 2023.

On July 25, 2023,April 23, 2024, MPLX declared a cash distribution for the secondfirst quarter of 2023,2024, totaling $776$864 million, or $0.775$0.850 per common unit. This distribution will be paid on August 14, 2023May 13, 2024 to common unitholders of record on August 4, 2023.May 3, 2024. Although our partnership agreement requires that we distribute all of our available cash (as defined in the partnership agreement) each quarter, we do not otherwise have a legal obligation to distribute any particular amount per common unit. This rate will also be received by Series A preferred unitholders.

The allocation of total cash distributions is as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023.

Capital Expenditures

Our operations are capital intensive, requiring investments to expand, upgrade, enhance or maintain existing operations and to meet environmental and operational regulations. Our capital requirements consist of growth capital expenditures and maintenance capital expenditures. Growth capital expenditures are those incurred for acquisitions or capital improvements that we expect will increase our operating capacity for volumes gathered, processed, transported or fractionated, decrease operating expenses within our facilities or increase operating income over the long term. Examples of growth capital expenditures include costs to develop or acquire additional pipeline, terminal, processing or storage capacity. In general, growth capital includes costs that are expected to generate additional or new cash flow for MPLX. In contrast, maintenance capital expenditures are those made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and to extend their useful lives, or other capital expenditures that are incurred in maintaining existing system volumes and related cash flows.

MPLX’s initial capital investment plan for 2023 totals $950 million,2024 is $1.1 billion, net of reimbursements, which includes growth capital of $800$950 million and maintenance capital of $150 million. The capital outlook excludes a $92 million equity method investment contribution made in March 2024 for the repayment of MPLX’s share of the Dakota Access joint venture’s debt. The contribution reduced our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement on April 1, 2024 when Dakota Access made its scheduled debt payment. Growth capital expenditures and investments in affiliates during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 were primarily for gas processing plants in the Marcellus and Permian basins and gathering projects in the Marcellus, Utica and Permian basins, as well as additions to our brown water marine fleet.basins. We continuously evaluate our capital plan and make changes as conditions warrant.

Contractual Cash Obligations

As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, our contractual cash obligations included debt, finance and operating lease obligations, purchase obligations for services and to acquire property, plant and equipment, and other liabilities. During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2023, our debt obligations increased by $600 million due to the issuance of Senior Notes and use of proceeds described above in Liquidity and Capital Resources-Debt and Liquidity Overview.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-balance sheet arrangements comprise those arrangements that may potentially impact our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations, even though such arrangements are not recorded as liabilities under GAAP. Our off-balance sheet arrangements are limited to guarantees that are described in Note 1416 of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and indemnities as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

2023.
Although these arrangements serve a variety of our business purposes, we are not dependent on them to maintain our liquidity and capital resources, and we are not aware of any circumstances that are reasonably likely to cause the off-balance sheet arrangements to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and capital resources.

Environmental Matters and Compliance Costs

We have incurred and may continue to incur substantial capital, operating and maintenance, and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately reflected in the prices of our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the age and location of its operating facilities.

As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022,2023, actual expenditures may vary as the number and scope of environmental projects are revised as a result of improved technology or changes in regulatory requirements. There have been no significantmaterial changes to our environmental matters and compliance costs duringsince our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the six monthsyear ended June 30,December 31, 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates

statements, certain new financial accounting pronouncements will be effective for our financial statements in the future.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility of commodity prices. We employ various strategies, including the potential use of commodity derivative instruments, to economically hedge the risks related to these price fluctuations. We are also exposed to market risks related to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, we did not have any open financial or commodity derivative instruments to hedge the economic risks related to interest rate fluctuations;fluctuations or the volatility of commodity prices, respectively; however, we continually monitor the market and our exposure and may enter into these arrangements in the future.

Commodity Price Risk

The information about commodity price risk for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 does not differ materially from that discussed in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Outstanding Derivative Contracts and Sensitivity Analysis

See Notes 910 and 1011 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for more information about the fair value measurement of our derivative instruments, including the natural gas embedded derivative, as well as the amounts recorded in our consolidated balance sheets and statements of income. We do not designate any of our commodity derivative instruments as hedges for accounting purposes.
37

Our open derivative positions at June 30, 2023 will expire at various times through 2023. We prepared a sensitivity analysis to estimate our exposure to market risk associated with our derivative instruments. Based on our open net positions at June 30, 2023, a 10 percent change in quoted market prices of our derivative instruments, assuming all other factors remain constant, could change the fair value of our derivative instruments and Income before income taxes by $2.0 million. This analysis may differ from actual results.

Interest Rate Risk and Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis of the effect of a hypothetical 100-basis-point change in interest rates on outstanding third-party debt, excluding finance leases, is provided in the following table. Fair value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued interest approximate carrying value and are relatively insensitive to changes in interest rates due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. Accordingly, these instruments are excluded from the table.

March 31, 2024.
At June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, our portfolio of third‑party debt consisted of fixed-rate instruments and outstanding borrowings, if any, under the MPLX Credit Agreement. The fair value of our fixed-rate debt is relatively sensitive to interest rate fluctuations. Our sensitivity to interest rate declines and corresponding increases in the fair value of our debt portfolio unfavorably affects our results of operations and cash flows only when we elect to repurchase or otherwise retire fixed-rate debt at prices above carrying value. Interest rate fluctuations generally do not impact the fair value of borrowings under our MPLX Credit Agreement, but may affect our results of operations and cash flows.

See Note 910 in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information on the fair value of our debt.

OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. While it is possible that an adverse result in one or more of the lawsuits or proceedings in which we are a defendant could be material to us, based upon current information and our experience as a defendant in other matters, we believe that these lawsuits and proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Item 103 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC requires disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions, unless we reasonably believe that the matter will result in no monetary sanctions, or in monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, of less than a specified threshold. We use a threshold of $1 million for this purpose.

There have been no material changes to the legal matters previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, or in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
