The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 4 — GOODWILL
DT Midstream hasWe have goodwill that resulted from business combinations. The carrying value of goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the value of goodwill may be impaired. We performed our prior year annual impairment test as of October 1, 20222023 and determined that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, and no impairment existed. No additions, impairments or other changes occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.March 31, 2024.
The following is the summary of the carrying amountvalue of goodwill: | | | June 30, | | December 31, |

While we believe the estimates and assumptions in the estimated fair value are reasonable, the actual results may differ from projections. To the extent projected results or cash flows are revised downward, the reporting unit may be required to write down all or a portion of its goodwill, which would adversely impact our earnings. If current expectations of future long-term growth are not met or market factors outside of our control change, such as U.S. Treasury Rates a sustained further decline in our market capitalization, or a further declinedeclines in midstream industry transaction multiples, this may lead to a goodwill impairment in the future.

Nature of Services
DT MidstreamWe primarily providesprovide two types of revenue services: firm service and interruptible service. Firm service revenue contracts provide for fixed revenue commitments regardless of actual volumes of natural gas that flow, which leads to more stable operating performance, revenues and cash flows and limits our exposure to natural gas price fluctuations. Firm service revenue contracts are typically long-term and structured using fixed demand charges or MVCs with fixed deficiency fee rates. Contracts structured using fixed demand charges contain a performance obligation of a stand-ready series of distinct services that are substantially the same with the same pattern of transfer to the customer, therefore revenue is recognized ratably over time. Contracts structured using MVCs with fixed deficiency fee rates require customers to transport or store a minimum volume of natural gas over a specified time period. If a customer fails to meet its MVCs for the specified time period, the contract consideration includes a fixed rate for the actual volumes gathered, transported gathered or stored, and a deficiency fee for the shortfall between the MVCs and the actual volumes gathered, transported, gathered or stored. If a customer exceeds its MVC for the specified time period, the contract consideration is based on fixed rates for the actual volumes gathered, transported, gathered or stored. The contract consideration is allocated to each distinct monthly performance obligation, consistent with the allocation objective and based upon the level of effort required to satisfy the service obligation. Revenues are generally recognized over time based on the output measure of natural gas volumes gathered, transported, gathered or stored, with the recognition of the deficiency fee revenue in the period when it is known the customer cannot make up the deficient volumes in the specified time period. Interruptible service revenue contracts typically contain fixed rates, with total consideration dependent on actual natural gas volumes that flow. Interruptible service revenues are recognized over time based on the output measure of natural gas volumes gathered, transported, gathered or stored. Certain of our gathering contracts allow for the recovery of production-related operating expenses, which are recorded asoffsetting in revenue and operating expense.

Such contracts consist of various types of performance obligations, including providing midstream services. Contracts with variable volumes and/or variable pricing, including those with pricing provisions tied to a consumer price or other index, have also been excluded as the related contract consideration is variable at the contract inception.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract
DT Midstream recognizesWe recognize an asset from the costs incurred to obtain a revenue contract only if it expectswe expect to recover those costs. In addition, the costs to fulfill a revenue contract are capitalized if the costs are specifically identifiable to a revenue contract, would result in enhancing resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future, and are expected to be recovered. These capitalized costs are amortized on a systematic basis consistent with the pattern of transfer of the services to which such costs relate.
As of June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2022, the Company2023, we had capitalized costs to obtain or fulfill a contract of $18$19 million and $19$18 million, respectively, which are included in other current assets and other noncurrent assets in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

NOTE 78 — FAIR VALUE
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in a principal or most advantageous market. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on inputs, which refer broadly to assumptions that market participants use in pricing assets or liabilities. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. DT Midstream makesWe make certain assumptions it believeswe believe that market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities, including assumptions about risk, and the risks inherent in the inputs to valuation techniques. DT Midstream believes it usesWe believe we use valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable market-based inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
A fair value hierarchy has been established that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value in three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. All assets and liabilities are required to be classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Assessing the significance of a particular input may require judgment considering factors specific to the asset or liability and may affect the valuation of the asset or liability and its placement within the fair value hierarchy. DT Midstream classifiesWe classify fair value balances based on the fair value hierarchy defined as follows:
•Level 1 — Consists of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that DT Midstream haswe have the ability to access as of the reporting date.
•Level 2 — Consists of inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the assets or liabilities or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.
•Level 3 — Consists of unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities whose fair value is estimated based on internally developed models or methodologies using inputs that are generally less readily observable and supported by little, if any, market activity at the measurement date. Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best available information and subject to cost-benefit constraints.

The prior year's comparative activity was for gathering services and therefore was not revised.
The Gathering segment owns and operates gas gathering systems. The segment is engaged in collecting natural gas from points at or near customers’ wells for delivery to plants for treating, to gathering pipelines for further gathering, or to pipelines for transportation, as well as associated ancillary services, including compression, dehydration, gas treatment, water impoundment, water transportation, water disposal, and sand mining.
Inter-segment billing for goods and services exchanged between segments is based upon contracted prices of the provider. Inter-segment billings were not significant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 and 2022.2023.

CAPITAL INVESTMENTS
Capital spending within our Company is primarily for ongoing maintenance and expansion of our existing assets, and if identified, attractive growth opportunities. We have been disciplined in our capital deployment and make growth investments that meet our criteria in terms of strategy, management skills, and identified risks and expected returns. All potential investments are analyzed for their rates of return and cash payback on a risk-adjusted basis. DT Midstream has shifted 2024 committed capital into 2023 for a new greenfield gathering opportunity in the emerging Ohio Utica play. We anticipate total capital expenditures, inclusive of contributions to equity method investees, in 2023 of approximately $790 million to $850 million.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
We are subject to extensive U.S. federal, state, and local environmental regulations. Additional compliance costs may result as the effects of various substances on the environment are studied and governmental regulations are developed and implemented. Actual costs to comply with such regulation could vary substantially from our expectations. Pending or future legislation or regulation could have a material impact on our operations and financial position. Potential impacts include unplanned expenditures for environmental equipment, such as pollution control equipment, financing costs related to additional capital expenditures, and the replacement costs of aging pipelines and other facilities.
For further discussion of environmental matters, see Note 9,10, "Commitments and Contingencies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 11. of this Form 10-Q.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Cash Requirements
Our principal liquidity requirements are to finance our operations, fund capital expenditures, satisfy our indebtedness obligations, and pay approved dividends.

Operating Activities
Cash flows from our operating activities can be impacted in the short term by the natural gas volumes gathered or transported through our systems under interruptible service revenue contracts, changing commoditynatural gas prices, seasonality, weather fluctuations, dividends received from equity method investees and the financial condition of our customers. Our preference to enter into firm service revenue contracts leads to more stable operating performance, revenues and cash flows and limits our exposure to natural gas price fluctuations.
Net cash and cash equivalents from operating activities increased $10 decreased $3 million infor the sixthree months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 primarily due to an increasea decrease in dividends received from equity method investees, andpartially offset by an increase in operating income after adjustment for non-cash items including depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation, and amortization of operating lease right-of-use assets, and assets (gains) losses and impairments. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in working capital changes and an increase in interest expense in 2023.assets.
Investing Activities
Cash outflows associated with our investing activities are primarily the result of plant and equipment expenditures, acquisitions, and contributions to equity method investees. Cash inflows from our investing activities are generated from proceeds from sale or collection of notes receivable, distributions received from equity method investees, and proceeds from asset sales.
Net cash and cash equivalents used for investing activities was unchanged indecreased $145 million for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 primarily due to an increasea decrease in cash used for plant and equipment expenditures for expansions on LEAP, Blue Union, and the Appalachia Gathering System and a decrease in proceeds from the sale of notes receivable, mostly offset by higher distributions received from equity method investees in 2023, including the NEXUS distribution.2024.
Financing Activities
In April 2022, we issued the 2032 Notes in aggregate principal amount of $600 million. We used the net proceeds from the sale of the 2032 Notes of $593 million to partially repay indebtedness under our Term Loan Facility. See Note 8, "Debt" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, DT Midstream paid cash dividends on common stock of $129$67 million and $120$62 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. See Note 5,6, "Earnings Per Share and Dividends" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 11. of this Form 10-Q.
Net cash and cash equivalents used for financing activities increased $239of $185 million infor the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2024 increased as compared to net cash and cash equivalents from financing activities of $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily due to higher net repayments of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and higher dividends paid on common stock, and lower proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt. The increase was partially offset by lower repayments of long-term debt.distributions to noncontrolling interests.
Outlook
We expect to continue executing on our natural gas-centric business strategy focused on disciplined capital deployment and supported by a flexible, well capitalized balance sheet. Other than the impact of the items discussed below on our debt and equity capitalization, we are not aware of any trends, other demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to materially impact our liquidity position.
Our working capital requirements will be primarily driven by changes in accounts receivable and accounts payable. We continue our efforts to identify opportunities to improve cash flows through working capital initiatives and obtaining additional long-term firm service revenue contracts from customers.
Our sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents generated from operating activities and available borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, we had $16 million of letters of credit outstanding and $100$55 million of borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility. We had approximately $929$970 million of available liquidity as of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, consisting of amountscash and cash equivalents and available borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and cash and cash equivalents.Facility.
We expect to pay regular cash dividends to DT Midstream common stockholders in the future. Any payment of future dividends is subject to approval by the Board of Directors and may depend on our future earnings, cash flows, capital requirements, financial condition, and the effect a dividend payment would have on our compliance with relevant financial covenants. Over the long-term, we expect to grow our dividend consistent with cash flow growth and are targeting a payout ratio consistent with pure-play midstream companies.5% to 7% annually.
We believe we will have sufficient operating flexibility, cash resources and funding sources to maintain adequate liquidity amounts of liquidity and to meet future operating cash, capital expenditure and debt servicing requirements. However, virtually all of our businesses arebusiness is capital intensive, or require access to capital, and the inability to access adequate capital could adversely impact future earnings and cash flows.
The Credit Agreement covering the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility includes financial covenants that DT Midstream must maintain. See Note 8,9, "Debt" and Note 9,10, "Commitments and Contingencies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 11. of this Form 10-Q.
CAPITAL INVESTMENTS
Capital spending within our Company is primarily for ongoing maintenance and expansion of our existing assets, and if identified, attractive growth opportunities. We have been disciplined in our capital deployment and make growth investments that meet our criteria in terms of strategy, management skills, and identified risks and expected returns. All potential investments are analyzed for their rates of return and cash payback on a risk-adjusted basis. Our total capital expenditures, inclusive of $1 million in contributions to equity method investees, were $99 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily for expansions on Ohio Utica Gathering, Blue Union Gathering and LEAP. We anticipate total capital expenditures, inclusive of contributions to equity method investees, for the year ended December 31, 2024 of approximately $350 million to $435 million.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires that management applies accounting policies and makes estimates and assumptions that affect results of operations and the amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Management believes that the area described below requires significant judgment in the application of the accounting policy or in making estimates and assumptions in matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods.
Goodwill
We have goodwill that resulted from business combinations. Annually as of October 1st, an impairment test for goodwill is performed which compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value including goodwill. In between annual impairment tests, we monitor our estimates and assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows, including the impact of movements in market indicators. An interim impairment test is performed whenever a triggering event occurs or circumstances indicate that the value of goodwill may be impaired.
The estimated fair value in our annual goodwill impairment analysis utilizes significant assumptions that require judgement by management. One such significant assumption is the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) which is used to discount estimates of projected future results and cash flows to be generated by each reporting unit. The WACC is based on our cost of debt, which includes U.S. industrial bond spreads, and cost of equity, which consists of U.S. Treasury Rates plus an equity risk premium. We have noted a slight decline in our WACC for each reporting unitthat U.S. Treasury risk-free rates have decreased slightly since our last annual goodwill impairment test.
Our annual goodwill impairment analysis includes a comparison of the estimated fair value of the Company as a whole to our market capitalization. Management also compares the implied market multiple of the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to midstream industry transaction multiples.multiples and considers other market indicators to support the appropriateness of the fair value estimates. Our consolidated market capitalization has increased since our last annual goodwill impairment test. We have noted a slight decline in our consolidated market capitalization and gathering-related midstream industry transaction multiples since our last annual goodwill impairment test. After assessing all relevant facts and circumstances, we have concluded that no triggering event has occurred that indicates it is more likely than not that the goodwill is impaired for either reporting unit and determined that an interim impairment test is not required. We will continue to monitor our estimates and assumptions on a quarterly basis as market conditions continue to evolve.
While we believe the estimates and assumptions in the estimated fair value are reasonable, the actual results may differ from projections. To the extent projected results or cash flows are revised downward, the reporting unit may be required to write down all or a portion of its goodwill, which would adversely impact our earnings. If current expectations of future long-term growth are not met or market factors outside of our control change, such as U.S. Treasury Rates, a sustained further decline in our market capitalization, or a further decline in midstream industry transaction multiples, this may lead to a goodwill impairment in the future.
See Part I, Item 3,3., "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk", in this Form 10-Q for more information on our exposure to market risk. See also "Critical Accounting Estimates" included in DT Midstream's 20222023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We are party to off-balance sheet arrangements, which include our equity method investments. See Note 1, "Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation—Principles of Consolidation" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 11. of this Form 10-Q for further discussion of the nature, purpose and other details of such agreements.
Other off-balance sheet arrangements include the Vector Lineline of Creditcredit and our surety bonds, which are discussed further in Note 9,10, "Commitments and Contingencies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 11. of this Form 10-Q.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
There are no new accounting pronouncements that are expectedSee Note 3, "New Accounting Pronouncements" to have a material impact on DT Midstream's consolidated financial statements.the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1. of this Form 10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Price Risk
Our business is dependent on the continued availability of natural gas production and reserves in our geographical areas of operation. Low prices for natural gas, including those resulting from regional basis differentials, could adversely affect development of additional reserves and future natural gas production that is accessible by our pipeline and storage assets. We manage our exposure through the use of short, medium, and long-term transportation, gathering, and storage contracts. Consequently, our existing operations and cash flows have limited direct exposure to natural gas price risk.
Credit Risk
We are exposed to credit risk, which is the risk of loss resulting from nonpayment or nonperformance under a contract. We manage our exposure to credit risk associated with customers through credit analysis, credit approval, credit limits and monitoring procedures. For certain transactions, we may request letters of credit, cash collateral, prepayments or guarantees as forms of credit support. Our FERC tariffs require tariff customers that do not meet specified credit standards to provide three months of credit support, however, we are exposed to credit risk beyond this three-month period when our tariffs do not require our customers to provide additional credit support. For some long-term contracts associated with gathering system expansions,construction or expansion, we have entered into negotiated credit agreements that provide for enhanced forms of credit support if certain customer credit standards are not met.
We depend on a key customer, Southwestern Energy, in the Haynesville formation in the Gulf Coast and in the Utica and Marcellus formations in the Northeastern U.S. for a significant portion of our revenues. The loss of, or reduction in volumes from, this key customer could result in a decline in demand for our services and materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We engage with customers that are sub-investment grade, including our key customer, Southwestern Energy. These customers are otherwise considered creditworthy or are required to make prepayments or provide security to satisfy credit concerns. We regularly monitor for bankruptcy proceedings that may impact our customers and had no bankruptcy proceedings during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2023.March 31, 2024.
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with the issuance of debt. Our exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from changes in SOFR. As of June 30, 2023,March 31, 2024, we had floating rate debt of $499$454 million related to the variable rate Term Loan Facility and borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility, and a floating rate debt-to-total debt ratio of 16%14%. See Note 8,9, "Debt" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 11. of this Form 10-Q.
We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our goodwill impairment assessment. See "Critical Accounting Estimates" under Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
Summary of Sensitivity Analysis
A sensitivity analysis was performed on the fair values of our long-term debt obligations. The sensitivity analysis involved increasing and decreasing interest rates as of June 30, 2023March 31, 2024 by a hypothetical 10% and calculating the resulting change in the fair values. The hypothetical losses related to long-term debt would be realized only if we transferred all of our fixed-rate long-term debt to other creditors. The results of the sensitivity analysis are as follows: | | Assuming a 10% Increase in Rates | | Assuming a 10% Decrease in Rates | | Change in the Fair Value of |
| | Assuming a 10% Increase in Rates | | | | Assuming a 10% Increase in Rates | | Assuming a 10% Decrease in Rates | | Change in the Fair Value of |
