Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This report includes forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are identified as any statement that does not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “forecast,” “strategy,” “position,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “shall,” or the negative of those terms or other variations of them or comparable terminology. In particular, expressed or implied statements concerning future actions, conditions or events, future operating results, our ability to generate sales, income or cash flow or to pay dividends are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Future actions, conditions or events and future results of operations may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results are beyond our ability to control or predict.
Our business, financial condition and results of operations, including our ability to pay cash dividends, are substantially dependent on our financial condition and results of operations. As a result, factors or events that impact our business are likely to have a commensurate impact on us, the market price and value of the Restricted Voting Shares, Preferred Shares, and our ability to pay dividends.
Forward-looking statements in this report include statements, express or implied, concerning, without limitation: the Pembina Transactions, including the timing of completion thereof, the anticipated receipt of requisite approvals and consents, including shareholder and court approvals, and satisfaction or waiver of required closing conditions; the expansion project at our Vancouver Wharves terminal, including completion or potential termination of such projects, anticipated costs, scheduling and in-service dates, future benefits and utilization, anticipated project returns and the impacts of such projects; remaining performance obligations for contracted revenue; and litigation and contingencies, including anticipated liability, resolution and outcome of such actions and proceedings.

You should keep these risk factors in mind when considering forward-looking statements. These risk factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Because of these risks and uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. Any financial outlook or other forward-looking statements included in this report are included for the purpose of providing information relating to management’s current expectations and plans for the future, are based on a number of significant assumptions and may not be appropriate, and should not be used, for any purpose other than those for which such forward-looking statements are disclosed herein.

KINDER MORGAN CANADA LIMITED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. General
The Company was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) on April 7, 2017. On May 30, 2017, we completed an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) of our Restricted Voting Shares and used the net proceeds of approximately $1,671.0 million to acquire an approximate 30% indirect economic interest in the Limited Partnership from certain affiliates of Kinder Morgan, who retained an approximate 70% economic interest of the limited partnership units in the Limited Partnership. After the IPO, we issued an aggregate of $550.0 million of Series 1 Preferred Shares and Series 3 Preferred Shares; as a result, our and Kinder Morgan’s respective interests in the Limited Partnership are subject to the preferred shareholders’ priority on distributions and upon liquidation.
Pending Sale to Pembina
On August 21, 2019, we announced that Pembina agreed to acquire all of our outstanding common equity, including the approximate 70% majority voting and economic interest held by Kinder Morgan. On closing, holders of Restricted Voting Shares will receive 0.3068 of a Pembina common share for each Restricted Voting Share and holders of Special Voting Shares will receive a cash payment of $0.000001 for each Special Voting Share and 0.3068 of a Pembina common share for each associated Class B Unit. In addition, Pembina has agreed to purchase the U.S. portion of the Cochin Pipeline from Kinder Morgan. The closing of the two transactions are cross-conditioned upon each other, and, in the case of Pembina's acquisition of KML, subject to our shareholder, Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta and regulatory approvals. Collectively, these transactions are referred herein as the “Pembina Transactions.”
On September 10, 2019, we announced that, as part of its acquisition of KML, Pembina agreed to exchange our outstanding Preferred Shares for Pembina preferred shares with the same commercial terms and conditions as our Preferred Shares. The exchange will be subject to the approval of our preferred shareholders and will close concurrently with the acquisition by Pembina of our common equity, although this approval is not a condition to closing of the Pembina Transactions described above.
Basis of Presentation
General
In January 2018, we completed the registration of our Restricted Voting Shares pursuant to Section 12(g) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act.
We have prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles contained in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the single source of U.S. GAAP and referred to in this report as (the “Codification”) U.S. GAAP are generally accepted accounting principles that the Securities Exchange Commission has identified as having substantial authoritative support, as supplemented by Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act, as amended from time to time. In compliance with such rules and regulations, all significant intercompany items have been eliminated in consolidation.
In our opinion, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position and operating results for the interim periods have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year; accordingly, you should read these consolidated financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Unless otherwise noted, amounts are stated in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of our continuing operations. Additionally, certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
For a discussion of the Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) we adopted on January 1, 2019, see Note 11.
Presentation of Kinder Morgan Interest
Kinder Morgan Interest represents the interest in our consolidated subsidiaries that are not owned by us. Kinder Morgan’s economic interest in the Limited Partnership is reflected within “Kinder Morgan interest” in our consolidated balance sheets and in the accompanying consolidated statements of equity. Earnings attributable to Kinder Morgan’s economic ownership interest in the Limited Partnership is presented in “Net Income Attributable to Kinder Morgan Interest” in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
2. Trans Mountain Transaction
On August 31, 2018, we closed on the sale of the Trans Mountain Asset Group, which was indirectly acquired by the Government of Canada, through Trans Mountain Corporation (a subsidiary of the Canada Development Investment Corporation) for cash consideration of approximately $4.43 billion, which is the contractual purchase price of $4.5 billion net of a preliminary working capital adjustment (the “Trans Mountain Transaction”). Additionally, in February 2019, we paid the remaining $37.0 million of working capital adjustments that were accrued as of December 31, 2018.
On January 3, 2019, distributions of approximately $1.2 billion were made as a return of capital to holders of our Restricted Voting Shares ($11.40 per Restricted Voting Share) and approximately $2.8 billion to KMI as the indirect holder of our Special Voting Shares (the “Return of Capital”). To facilitate the Return of Capital and provide flexibility for dividends going forward, our voting shareholders also approved (i) a reduction of the stated capital of our Restricted Voting Shares by $1.45 billion (the “Stated Capital Reduction”) and (ii) a “reverse stock split” of our Restricted Voting Shares and Special Voting Shares on a one-for-three basis (three shares consolidating to one share) (the “Share Consolidation”), which occurred on January 4, 2019. The Restricted Voting Shares and Special Voting Shares outstanding and earnings per share information in this report reflect the Share Consolidation for all periods presented.

Earnings per Restricted Voting Share
We calculate earnings per share from continuing and discontinued operations using the two-class method. Earnings were allocated to Restricted Voting Shares and participating securities 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 earnings or excess distributions over earnings. Our unvested RSU awards, which may be settled in Restricted Voting Shares issued to employees and non-employee directors and include dividend equivalent payments, do not participate in excess distributions over earnings.
The following tables set forth the allocation of income from continuing and discontinued operations available to shareholders of Restricted Voting Shares and participating securities:

6. Risk Management and Financial Instruments
Credit risk
We are exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that a customer or other counterparty will fail to perform an obligation or settle a liability, resulting in a financial loss to our business, which is primarily concentrated in the crude oil and refined products transportation industry and is dependent upon the ability of our customers to pay for these services. A majority of our customers operate in the oil and gas exploration and development, or energy marketing or transportation industries. We may be exposed to long-term downturns in energy commodity prices, including the price for crude oil, or other credit events impacting these industries. We limit our exposure to credit risk by requiring shippers who fail to maintain specified credit ratings or a suitable financial position to provide acceptable security, generally in the form of guarantees from credit worthy parties or letters of credit from well rated financial institutions. Our cash and cash equivalents are held with major financial institutions, minimizing the risk of non-performance by counterparties.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk attributed to floating rate debt, which is used to finance capital expansion projects, and general corporate operations. The changes in interest rates may impact future cash flows and the fair value of our financial instruments.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation
Foreign currency transaction gains or losses result from a change in exchange rates between the functional currency of an entity and the currency in which a transaction is denominated. Unrealized and realized gains and losses generated from these transactions are recorded in “Foreign exchange (loss) gain” on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and include:
•Our continuing operations unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were 0 and $(0.1) million, respectively, and $(0.6) million and $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, due to changes in exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar on U.S. dollar denominated balances. These currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the expected Canadian dollar cash flows on unsettled U.S. dollar denominated transactions, primarily related to cash bank accounts that are denominated in U.S. dollars and affiliate receivables or payables that are denominated in U.S. dollars.
•Cochin earns its revenues in U.S. dollars. Therefore, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar exchange rate can affect the earnings contributed by Cochin to our overall results. Our continuing operations had realized foreign exchange gain (losses) of $0.1 million and 0 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, and 0 and $(0.8) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.
•As a result of the Trans Mountain Transaction, we released foreign currency translation gains previously held within
Accumulated other comprehensive loss to the Gain on sale of the Trans Mountain Asset Group, net of tax in the
accompanying consolidated statement of income of $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations, including commitments, as they become due. We manage our liquidity risk by ensuring access to sufficient funds to meet our obligations. We forecast cash requirements to ensure funding is available to settle financial liabilities when they become due. Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are funds generated from operations and our 2018 Credit Facility, see Note 3.

Contract Balances
Contract assets and contract liabilities are the result of timing differences between revenue recognition, billings and cash collections.
The following table presents the activity in our contract assets and liabilities:
| | | | | | | |

Revenue Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
The following table presents our estimated revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations for contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, representing our “contractually committed” revenue as of September 30, 2019 that we will invoice or transfer from contract liabilities and recognize in future periods:
| | | | | |
Year | Estimated Revenue |
(In millions of Canadian dollars) | |
Three months ended December 31, 2019 | 75.1 | |
2020 | 273.2 | |
2021 | 225.5 | |
2022 | 197.7 | |
2023 | 188.4 | |
Thereafter | 534.8 | |
Total | 1,494.7 | |
Our contractually committed revenue for purposes of the tabular presentation above is generally limited to service customer contracts, which have fixed pricing and fixed volume terms and conditions, generally including contracts with take-or-pay or minimum volume commitment payment obligations. Our contractually committed revenue amounts generally exclude remaining performance obligations for: (i) contracts with index-based pricing or variable volume attributes in which such variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of a series of distinct services; (ii) contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less; and (iii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount for which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
8. Reportable Segments
We evaluate the performance of our reportable business segments by evaluating our segment earnings before depreciation and amortization expenses (“Segment EBDA”). Results from discontinued operations are summarized within “Income from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax” in the table below, see Note 2. Financial information by segment for continuing operations is as follows:

_______
(a)Includes revenues less operations and maintenance expense, taxes, other than income taxes, other expense (income), net, foreign exchange gain (loss), and other, net.
(b)December 31, 2018 amount includes approximately $3,977.4 million of cash distributed to shareholders as a Return of Capital on January 3, 2019 and approximately $307.6 million of cash to pay accrued income taxes related to the gain on the Trans Mountain Transaction.
9. Income Taxes
Income tax expense applicable to continuing operations included in our accompanying consolidated statements of income is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended September 30, | | | Nine Months Ended September 30, | | | | | | |
| 2019 | | 2018 | 2019 | | 2018 | | | | |
(In millions of Canadian dollars, except percentages) | | | | | | | | | | |
Income tax expense applicable to continuing operations | 7.6 | | | 9.3 | | 25.4 | | | 25.0 | | | | | |
Effective tax rate | 31.4 | % | | 29.5 | % | 29.9 | % | | 29.5 | % | | | | |
The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were higher than the statutory federal rate of 15.0% primarily due to (i) provincial income taxes; (ii) tax impact of non-deductible inter-corporate charges; and (iii) the net tax impact on the Preferred Share dividends paid.
The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 were higher than the statutory federal rate of 15.0% primarily due to provincial income taxes and tax impact of non-deductible inter-corporate charges.
As a result of our IPO and subsequent revaluation (or rebalancing) of our investment in the Limited Partnership, our tax basis exceeds our accounting basis in our investment in the Limited Partnership by approximately $1.0 billion. This excess tax basis results in a deferred tax asset of approximately $119.3 million as of September 30, 2019. A full valuation allowance was recorded against this deferred tax asset as we determined it was more likely than not to not be realized.
Income Taxes on Discontinued Operations
Income tax benefit in respect to our discontinued operations includes income tax benefit on the Trans Mountain Asset Group earnings and the gain on the sale of the Trans Mountain Asset Group. Our effective tax rate on the income from discontinued operations was (5.0%) and (4.5%) for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate on our income from discontinued operations is lower than the statutory federal rate of 15.0% primarily due to (i) the taxable gain being eligible for a 50.0% capital gains deduction; (ii) the release of the non-cash deferred tax liabilities attributable to the Trans Mountain Asset Group; and partially offset by provincial income taxes.
For more information regarding our discontinued operations, see Note 2.
10. Additional Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows Information
The following amounts include changes for the Trans Mountain Asset Group’s operating assets and liabilities, see Note 2.

11. Leases
Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” and the series of related Accounting Standards Updates that followed (collectively referred to as “Topic 842”). The most significant changes under the new guidance include clarification of the definition of a lease, and the requirements for lessees to recognize a ROU asset and a lease liability for all qualifying leases with terms longer than 12 months in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, under Topic 842, additional disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.
We elected the practical expedient available to us under ASU 2018-11 “Leases: Targeted Improvements” which allows us to apply the transition provision for Topic 842 at our adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period presented in our financial statements. Therefore, we recognized and measured leases existing at January 1, 2019 but without retrospective application. In addition, we elected the optional practical expedient permitted under the transition guidance related to land easements which allows us to carry forward our historical accounting treatment for land easements on existing agreements upon adoption. We also elected all other available practical expedients except the hindsight practical expedient.
The impact of Topic 842 on our consolidated balance sheet beginning January 1, 2019 was through the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. Amounts recognized at January 1, 2019 for operating leases were as follows:
| | | | | |
| January 1, 2019 |
(In millions of Canadian dollars) | |
ROU assets | 518.1 | |
Current lease liabilities | 17.3 | |
Long-term lease liabilities | 500.8 | |
No impact was recorded to the income statement or beginning retained earnings for adoption of Topic 842.
Lessee
We lease property including corporate and field offices and facilities, vehicles, heavy work equipment, tanks and pipe racks, and land. Our leases have remaining lease terms of one to 25 years, some of which have options to extend or terminate the lease. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. For purposes of calculating operating lease liabilities, lease terms may be deemed to include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.
Beginning January 1, 2019, operating ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Operating leases in effect prior to January 1, 2019 were recognized at the present value of the remaining payments on the remaining lease term as of January 1, 2019. Leases with variable rate adjustments, such as Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) adjustments, were reflected based on contractual lease payments as outlined within the lease agreement and not adjusted for any CPI increases or decreases. For the majority of our operating leases, we use our contracted rate of return of 7.0% based on lease term information available at the commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of lease payments. We have real estate lease agreements with lease and non-lease components which are accounted for separately, while for the remainder of our agreements we have elected the practical
expedient to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Leases that were grandfathered under various portions of Topic 842, such as land easements, are reassessed when agreements are modified.
Following are components of our lease cost:
| | | | | |
| Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 |
(In millions of Canadian dollars) | |
Operating leases | 42.0 | |
Short-term and variable leases | 2.5 | |
Total lease cost | 44.5 | |
Other information related to our operating leases are as follows:
| | | | | | |
| | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 |
(In millions of Canadian dollars, except lease term and discount rate) | | |
Operating cash flows from operating leases | | (44.5) | |
ROU assets obtained in exchange for operating lease obligations | | 13.7 | |
Amortization of ROU assets | | 21.6 | |
| | |
Weighted average remaining lease term | | 18.64 years |
Weighted average discount rate | | 6.87 | % |
Operating lease liabilities under non-cancellable leases (excluding short-term leases) are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| September 30, 2019 | December 31, 2018(a) | |
(In millions of Canadian dollars) | | |
2019 (three months ended December 31, 2019) | 13.5 | | |
2019 | | 52.3 | |
2020 | 52.6 | | 50.4 | |
2021 | 52.1 | | 49.6 | |
2022 | 51.9 | | 49.5 | |
2023 | 50.1 | | 47.6 | |
Thereafter | 708.3 | | 699.1 | |
Total Lease Payments | 928.5 | | 948.5 | |
Less: Interest | (418.3) | | |
Present Value of future minimum operating lease payments | 510.2 | | |
_______
(a)Amounts have been revised from the previously reported in our 2018 Form 10-K for the December 31, 2018 future gross minimum rental commitments under our operating lease obligations to correct amounts previously reported to include an additional $656.0 million of undiscounted future lease payments, primarily in the “Thereafter” amount, associated with the 2018 extension of the Edmonton South lease through December 2038.
Short-term lease costs are not material to us and are anticipated to be similar to the current year short-term lease obligations outlined in this disclosure.
Lessor
Our assets that we lease to others under operating leases consists primarily of specific facilities at which one customer obtains substantially all of the economic benefit from the asset and has the right to direct the use of that asset. These leases primarily consist of storage and pipeline facilities. Our leases have remaining lease terms of one to 25 years, some of which have options to extend the lease for up to an additional 15 years. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception or upon modification. None of our leases allow the lessee to purchase the leased asset.
Lease income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 totaled $6.8 million and $18.9 million, respectively, including variable lease payments that are excluded from the following disclosure as the amounts cannot be reasonably estimated for future periods.
Future minimum operating lease payments to be received based on contractual agreements are as follows:
| | | | | |
| September 30, 2019 |
(In millions of Canadian dollars) | |
2019 (three months ended December 31, 2019) | 5.9 | |
2020 | 22.6 | |
2021 | 15.0 | |
2022 | 15.0 | |
2023 | 13.7 | |
Thereafter | 108.8 | |
Total | 181.0 | |
Options for a lessee to renew the agreement are not included as part of future minimum operating lease revenues. We elected the practical expedient available to us to not separate lease and non-lease components under these agreements. Any modification of a lease will result in a reevaluation of the lease classification.
12. Litigation and Environmental
Legal Proceedings
We and our subsidiaries are parties to various legal, regulatory and other matters arising from the day-to-day operations of our businesses or certain predecessor operations that may result in claims against the Company. Although no assurance can be given, we believe, based on our experiences to date and taking into account established reserves and insurance, that the ultimate resolution of such items will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or dividends to our shareholders. We believe we have meritorious defenses to the matters to which we are a party and intend to vigorously defend the Company. When we determine a loss is probable of occurring and is reasonably estimable, we accrue an undiscounted liability for such contingencies based on our best estimate using information available at that time. If the estimated loss is a range of potential outcomes and there is no better estimate within the range, we accrue the amount at the low end of the range. We disclose contingencies where an adverse outcome may be material, or in the judgment of management, we conclude the matter should otherwise be disclosed. We had 0 accruals for any outstanding legal proceedings as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Base Line Terminal Project Litigation
On March 2, 2018, Arnett & Burgess Oilfield Construction Limited (“A&B”) filed a statement of claim and certificate of lis pendens, in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta, against Alberta Envirofuels Inc. (“AEF”) and Base Line Terminal East Limited Partnership, by its general partner, KM Canada Rail Holdings GP Limited (“BLTELP”). A&B was a contractor on the Base Line Terminal Project (the “BTT Project”) and has claimed it is owed $21.2 million, inclusive of goods and services tax, asserting that BLTELP failed to pay A&B for work performed on the BTT Project under a construction services agreement.
On March 26, 2018, A&B filed a separate statement of claim, in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta, against BLTELP solely, asserting that BLTELP failed to pay for work performed under a separate construction services agreement also related to the BTT Project. With respect to the second claim, A&B has claimed it is owed approximately $1.0 million, inclusive of goods and services tax. We dispute both claims and intend to defend against them vigorously.
On June 5, 2018, Barrier Coating Inc. (“Barrier”) filed a statement of claim and certificate of lis pendens in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta against Enbridge Pipelines Inc., AEF, Strathcona County, BLTELP, KM Canada Rail Holdings GP Limited, Keyera Energy Ltd., Trans Mountain and Fabricom Inc. (“Fabricom”). Barrier is a subcontractor on the BTT Project and has a construction agreement with Fabricom (the “Fabricom Agreement”). In its claim, Barrier asserts that Fabricom has breached its obligations under the Fabricom Agreement and, as such, Fabricom owes damages to Barrier. The remaining defendants, including BLTELP, KM Canada Rail Holdings GP Limited and Trans Mountain, have been named in the claim as parties with registered interests on lands affected by the work performed by Barrier under the Fabricom Agreement. Barrier asserts that these parties were, collectively, unjustly enriched in the amount of $2.5 million. This matter was resolved and dismissed without any payment from any Kinder Morgan affiliate.
On September 6, 2018, Fabricom filed a statement of claim and certificate of lis pendens in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta, against KM Canada Terminals ULC, BLTELP, Trans Mountain, AEF, Doran Stewart Oilfield Services (1990) Ltd., Alberta Envirofuels Inc., Enbridge Pipelines Inc., and Strathcona County. Fabricom was a contractor on the BTT Project, and claims that it is owed $30.4 million by BLTELP above the contract value for work performed on the BTT Project under a construction services agreement. Fabricom subsequently sent a notice of arbitration incorporating its claim. Pursuant to a provision in the construction services agreement, the dispute will be resolved by arbitration and the Court of Queen’s Bench matter will be stayed. We dispute this claim and intend to defend against it vigorously.
British Columbia Utilities Commission (“BCUC”) Proceeding
The tariff and associated rates charged by Kinder Morgan Canada (Jet Fuel) Inc. (“KMJF”) are subject to an ongoing proceeding at the BCUC. On November 29, 2018, KMJF filed with the BCUC an application of a tariff to extend the existing terms and settlement rates for the transportation of turbine fuel to the Vancouver International Airport and the Burnaby Terminal, effective January 1, 2019. On December 14, 2018, the BCUC issued an order accepting the rates, subject to refund, and established a process for evaluating KMJF’s Annual Revenues and Gathering Line Fee (“Annual Revenue Requirement”). On August 23, 2019, KMJF filed a revised application with the BCUC seeking approval for KMJF's Annual Revenue Requirement and a surcharge to recover abandonment costs of the pipeline. We estimate that the shippers are seeking approximately a 50% reduction in the Annual Revenue Requirement, or approximately $3.5 million. Management believes KMJF’s cost of service supports KMJF’s rates and intends to vigorously defend KMJF’s proposed rates.
Environmental
We and our subsidiaries are subject to various legal and regulatory actions and proceedings which arise in the normal course of business. While the final outcome of such actions and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the resolution of such actions and proceedings will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
We and our subsidiaries are also subject to environmental cleanup and enforcement actions from time to time. Although we believe our operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental law and regulations, risks of additional costs and liabilities are inherent in pipeline and terminal operations, and there can be no assurance that we will not incur significant costs and liabilities. Moreover, it is possible that other developments, such as increasingly stringent environmental laws, regulations and enforcement policies under the terms of authority of those laws, and claims for damages to property or persons resulting from our operations, could result in substantial costs and liabilities to us.
Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcomes, we believe that the resolution of the environmental matters to which we and our subsidiaries are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $0.1 million accrued for our outstanding environmental matters.
13. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU No. 2016-13
On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU modifies the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities will require to utilize a new forward-looking “expected loss” methodology that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. ASU No. 2016-13 will be effective for us as of January 1, 2020, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently reviewing the effect of this ASU to our financial statements.
ASU No. 2018-14
On August 28, 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” This ASU amends existing annual disclosure requirements applicable to all employers that sponsor defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans by adding, removing, and clarifying certain disclosures. ASU No. 2018-14 will be effective for us for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently reviewing the effect of this ASU to our financial statements.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report, and in conjunction with (i) our consolidated financial statements and related notes and (ii) our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Recent Developments
Pending Sale to Pembina
On August 21, 2019, we announced that Pembina agreed to acquire all of our outstanding common equity, including the approximate 70% majority voting and economic interest held by Kinder Morgan. On closing, holders of Restricted Voting Shares will receive 0.3068 of a Pembina common share for each Restricted Voting Share and holders of Special Voting Shares will receive a cash payment of $0.000001 for each Special Voting Share and 0.3068 of a Pembina common share for each associated Class B Unit. In addition, Pembina has agreed to purchase the U.S. portion of the Cochin Pipeline from Kinder Morgan. The closing of the two transactions are cross-conditioned upon each other, and, in the case of Pembina's acquisition of KML, subject to our shareholder, Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta and regulatory approvals. Collectively, these transactions are referred herein as the “Pembina Transactions” and they are expected to close late in the fourth quarter of 2019 or in the first quarter of 2020.
On September 10, 2019, we announced that, as part of its acquisition of KML, Pembina agreed to exchange our outstanding Preferred Shares for Pembina preferred shares with the same commercial terms and conditions as our Preferred Shares. The exchange will be subject to the approval of our preferred shareholders and will close concurrently with the acquisition by Pembina of our common equity, although this approval is not a condition to closing of the Pembina Transactions described above.
2019 Outlook
Our 2019 budget contemplates declaring dividends of $0.65 (annualized) per Restricted Voting Share, generating Adjusted EBITDA of $213 million and generating DCF from continuing operations of approximately $109 million, representing DCF per Restricted Voting Share of $0.90. Our current expectation is that our results for the year will be consistent with our budget.
We do not provide forecasted income from continuing operations (the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures DCF from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA) due to the impracticality of quantifying certain amounts required by GAAP, such as realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses and potential changes in estimates for certain contingent liabilities. See “Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for more information on DCF and Adjusted EBITDA.
Trans Mountain Transaction
On August 31, 2018, we closed on the sale of the Trans Mountain Asset Group, which was indirectly acquired by the Government of Canada through Trans Mountain Corporation (a subsidiary of the Canada Development Investment Corporation) for cash consideration of approximately $4.43 billion, which is the contractual purchase price of $4.5 billion net of a preliminary working capital adjustment (the “Trans Mountain Transaction”). Additionally, in February 2019, we paid the remaining $37.0 million of working capital adjustments that were accrued as of December 31, 2018. The underlying assets in the Trans Mountain Asset Group were primarily within our Pipelines business segment and the operating results for the Trans Mountain Asset Group are presented as “Income from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax” in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and the following “—Results of Operations” for the 2018 periods.
2019 Return of Capital and Share Consolidation
Pursuant to our voting shareholders’ approval on November 29, 2018, distributions of approximately $1.2 billion were made as a return of capital to holders of our Restricted Voting Shares ($11.40 per Restricted Voting Share) and approximately $2.8 billion to KMI as the indirect holder of our Special Voting Shares on January 3, 2019 (the “Return of Capital”). To facilitate the Return of Capital and provide flexibility for dividends going forward, our voting shareholders also approved (i) a reduction of the stated capital of our Restricted Voting Shares by $1.45 billion (the “Stated Capital Reduction”) and (ii) a “reverse stock split” of our Restricted Voting Shares and Special Voting Shares on a one-for-three basis (three shares consolidating to one share) (the “Share Consolidation”), which occurred on January 4, 2019. The Restricted Voting Shares and Special Voting Shares outstanding and earnings per share information in this report reflect the Share Consolidation for all periods presented.
Terminals Matters
Material permits have been secured and construction activities continue on the distillate storage expansion project at our Vancouver Wharves terminal in North Vancouver, British Columbia. The approximately $50 million capital project, which calls for the construction of two new distillate tanks with combined storage capacity of 200,000 barrels and enhancements to the railcar unloading capabilities, is supported by a 20-year initial term, take-or-pay contract with an affiliate of a large, international integrated energy company. The project is expected to be placed in service in the first quarter of 2021.
As previously disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, a material contractual arrangement at the Edmonton Rail Terminal has an initial term expiring in April 2020 and includes a right of renewal on favorable terms for our customer related to rail terminal and associated pipeline connection service fees. As anticipated, the customer has exercised this right of renewal which is expected to result in lower revenues of approximately $43 million and $11 million on an annual basis for rail terminal fees and associated pipeline connection fees, respectively. We expect this revenue reduction will be partially offset by expansion projects as well as favorable renewal rates on expiring contracts at our other terminal facilities.
Results of Operations
Overview
As described in further detail below, our management evaluates our performance primarily using the GAAP financial measures of Segment EBDA, Net income and Net income available to Restricted Voting Shareholders, along with the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Earnings and DCF, both in the aggregate and per share for each, and Adjusted Segment EBDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
The earnings (losses) prior to the closing of the Trans Mountain Transaction on August 31, 2018 from the Trans Mountain Asset Group are presented as earnings (losses) from discontinued operations for the 2018 periods.
GAAP Performance Measures
The Consolidated Earnings Results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 present Segment EBDA, Net income and Net income Available to Restricted Voting Stockholders which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Segment EBDA is a useful measure of our operating performance because it measures the operating results of our segments before D&A and certain expenses that are generally not controllable by our business segment operating managers, such as general and administrative expenses, interest expense, net, and income taxes. Our general and administrative expenses include such items as employee benefits, insurance, rentals, certain litigation, and shared corporate services including accounting, information technology, human resources and legal services.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our non-GAAP measures described below should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or other GAAP measures and have important limitations as analytical tools. Our computations of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. You should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Management compensates for the limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures by reviewing our comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures and taking this information into account in its analysis and its decision making processes.
The format of the reconciliations between our non-GAAP and comparable GAAP financial measures has been modified to provide further transparency and information on our business performance. The modified reconciliations also include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Earnings, both in aggregate and per share, and Adjusted EBITDA. The calculations and key components of our non-GAAP financial measures remain unchanged from prior periods.
Certain Items
Certain Items, as adjustments used to calculate our non-GAAP measures, are items that are required by GAAP to be reflected in net income, but typically either (i) do not have a cash impact, or (ii) by their nature are separately identifiable from our normal business operations and in our view are likely to occur only sporadically (for example, gains and losses on asset sales, legal settlements and casualty losses). See tables included in “—Certain Items Affecting Consolidated Earnings Results,” and “—Reconciliation of Income from Continuing Operations (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA” below. In addition, Certain Items are described in more detail in the footnotes to tables included in “—Segment Earnings Results” and “—General and Administrative Expense, and Interest Income, net” below.
Adjusted Earnings
Adjusted Earnings is calculated by adjusting net income available to common stockholders for Certain Items. Adjusted Earnings is used by us and certain external users of our financial statements to assess the earnings of our business excluding Certain Items as another reflection of our ability to generate earnings. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted Earnings is net income available to common stockholders. Adjusted Earnings per share uses Adjusted Earnings and applies the same two-class method used in arriving at basic earnings per common share. (See “—Reconciliation of Income from Continuing Operations (GAAP) to Adjusted Earnings to DCF” below).
DCF
DCF is calculated by adjusting net income available to common stockholders for Certain Items (Adjusted Earnings) and further by D&A, income tax expense, cash taxes, sustaining capital expenditures and other items. DCF is an important
performance measure used by us and external users of our financial statements in evaluating our performance and in measuring and estimating our ability to generate cash earnings after servicing our debt and preferred stock dividends, paying cash taxes and expending sustaining capital, that could be used for discretionary purposes such as distributions or expansion capital expenditures. KML uses this performance measure and believes it provides users of its financial statements a useful performance measure reflective of our ability to generate cash earnings to supplement the comparable GAAP measure. DCF should not be used as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to DCF is net income. DCF per split-adjusted Restricted Voting Share is DCF divided by average outstanding split-adjusted Restricted Voting Shares, including stock awards that participate in dividends. (See “—Reconciliation of Income from Continuing Operations (GAAP) to Adjusted Earnings to DCF” below).
Adjusted Segment EBDA
Adjusted Segment EBDA is calculated by adjusting Segment EBDA for Certain Items attributable to the segment. Adjusted Segment EBDA is used by management in its analysis of segment performance and management of our business. We believe Adjusted Segment EBDA is a useful performance metric because it provides management and external users of our financial statements additional insight into the ability of our segments to generate segment cash earnings on an ongoing basis. We believe it is useful to investors because it is a measure that management uses to allocate resources to our segments and assess each segment’s performance. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted Segment EBDA is Segment EBDA. See “—Certain Items Affecting Consolidated Earnings Results” below.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management and external users of its financial statements as an additional performance measure. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for Certain Items, as applicable. We believe the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net income. We evaluate adjusted EBITDA in total and do not allocate Adjusted EBITDA amongst equity interest holders as it views Adjusted EBITDA as a measure against our overall leverage. See “—Reconciliation of Income from Continuing Operations (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA” below.
Discontinued Operations
DCF from discontinued operations and Adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations, are reconciled to income from discontinued operations, the most directly comparable GAAP measure in footnote (c) to the above referenced GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations.

(c)See Note 2 “Trans Mountain Transaction” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs Three Months Ended September 30, 2018
After giving effect to Certain Items above, which are discussed in more detail in the discussions that follow, the $2.0 million decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes between the comparable quarters is primarily attributable to lower interest income from the interest earned on cash received from the Trans Mountain Transaction deposited in interest bearing cash equivalent accounts, increased D&A and general and administrative expense partially offset by increased earnings from both of our segments.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
After giving effect to Certain Items above, which are discussed in more detail in the discussions that follow, the $12.4 million increase in income from continuing operations before income taxes between the comparable periods is primarily attributable to increased earnings from both of our segments partially offset by lower interest income from the interest earned on cash received from the Trans Mountain Transaction deposited in interest bearing cash equivalent accounts, and increased D&A and general and administrative expense.

The changes in Adjusted Segment EBDA for our Terminals business segment are further explained by the following discussion of the significant factors driving Adjusted Segment EBDA in the comparable three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:
•increase of $3.5 million (50%) and $16.2 million (107%), respectively, from Base Line joint venture as a result of the new tanks being placed into service throughout 2018;
•increase of $4.0 million (15%) for the comparable nine months from North 40 Terminal primarily due to rate increases on re-contracted tank leases and fees associated with a new pipeline connection;
•increase of $1.5 million (7%) for the comparable nine months from Vancouver Wharves Terminal primarily due to higher sulphur and distillate volumes;
•increase of $1.2 million (5%) for the comparable nine months from Edmonton South primarily due to higher pipeline connection fees and contract rate escalations; and
•decrease $3.4 million (8%) for the comparable nine months from Edmonton Rail Terminal primarily due to expiration of a third-party rail terminaling contract.

The changes in Adjusted Segment EBDA for our Pipelines business segment are further explained by the following discussion of the significant factors driving Adjusted Segment EBDA in the comparable three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:
•increase of $3.2 million (41%) and $8.7 million (39%), respectively, from Cochin primarily due to higher revenue due to rate and volume increases in 2019, and a reduction in pipeline integrity expenses and outside service costs in 2019.

(a)2019 amounts represent costs of strategic initiatives and 2018 amounts represents labor expenses related to the Trans Mountain Transaction.
(b)Amounts are adjusted for Certain Items.
(c)2018 amounts represent costs associated with debt refinancing allocated to continuing operations.
The increase in general and administrative expense adjusted for Certain Items of $0.5 million and $3.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, when compared with the respective prior year periods were primarily driven by increased labor and benefit costs.
The decrease in interest income, net adjusted for Certain Items of $7.0 million and $6.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, when compared with the respective prior year periods was primarily driven by interest earned on cash received from the Trans Mountain Transaction deposited in interest bearing cash equivalent accounts.
Income Tax Expense from Continuing Operations
Income tax expense from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $7.6 million, as compared with $9.3 million for the same period of 2018. The $1.7 million decrease in tax expense is primarily due to a decrease in pre-tax earnings partially offset by the net tax impact on the Preferred Share dividends paid.
Income tax expense from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $25.4 million, as compared with $25.0 million for the same period of 2018. The $0.4 million increase in tax expense was primarily due to the net tax impact on the Preferred Share dividends paid.
Net Income Attributable to Kinder Morgan Interest
Net income attributable to Kinder Morgan interest represents the allocation of our consolidated net income attributable to the outstanding ownership interests in our consolidated subsidiaries that are owned by Kinder Morgan’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. The decrease in net income attributable to Kinder Morgan interest for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 when compared with the respective 2018 periods were $934.1 million and $945.3 million, respectively, which were primarily attributable to a gain on the Trans Mountain Transaction in 2018.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Short-term Liquidity
On August 31, 2018, we established a 4-year, $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2018 Credit Facility”) for working capital purposes. As of September 30, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $65.2 million, and outstanding borrowings of $45.0 million, with $451.6 million available (net of $3.4 million of outstanding letters of credit), under our 2018 Credit Facility.
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our principal source of short-term liquidity was our cash from operating activities from continuing operations, and as needed, our 2018 Credit Facility. We had working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) deficits of $28.4 million and $22.9 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we paid $313.9 million of income taxes primarily attributable to the Trans Mountain Transaction gain that were accrued as of December 31, 2018. Excluding this payment, we generated $129.8 million of cash from operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The primary investing and financing activities related to our continuing operations are expected to be for capital expenditures and distributions to our voting and preferred shareholders. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we had cash outflows of $38.0 million for capital expenditures and $78.3 million for combined distributions to voting and preferred shareholders. Also, see ‘‘—Cash Flows — Operating Activities’’ below.
We believe our cash position, remaining borrowing capacity on our 2018 Credit Facility, and our cash flows from operating activities from our continuing operations are adequate to allow us to manage our day-to-day cash requirements, capital expenditures discussed below and other obligations.
Capital Expenditures
We account for our capital expenditures in accordance with GAAP. We also distinguish between capital expenditures that are maintenance/sustaining capital expenditures and those that are expansion capital expenditures. Expansion capital expenditures are those expenditures which increase throughput or capacity from that which existed immediately prior to the addition or improvement, and are not deducted in calculating DCF. Sustaining capital expenditures are those which maintain throughput or capacity. The distinction between maintenance and expansion capital expenditures is a physical determination rather than an economic one, irrespective of the amount by which the throughput or capacity is increased.
Budgeting of sustaining capital expenditures is done annually on a bottom-up basis. For each of our assets, we budget for and make those sustaining capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain safe and efficient operations, meet customer needs and comply with our operating policies and applicable law. We may budget for and make additional sustaining capital expenditures that we expect will produce economic benefits such as increasing efficiency and/or lowering future expenses. Budgeting and approval of expansion capital expenditures are generally made periodically throughout the year on a project-by-project basis in response to specific investment opportunities identified by our business segments from which we generally expect to receive sufficient returns to justify the expenditures. Generally, the determination of whether a capital expenditure is classified as sustaining or as expansion capital expenditures is made on a project level. The classification of capital expenditures as expansion capital expenditures or as sustaining capital expenditures is made consistent with our accounting policies and is generally a straightforward process, but in certain circumstances can be a matter of management judgment and discretion. The classification of capital expenditures has an impact on DCF because capital expenditures that are classified as expansion capital expenditures are not deducted from DCF, while those classified as sustaining capital expenditures are.
Our capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 for our continuing operations, and the amount that is expected to be spent to sustain and grow our continuing operations for the remainder of 2019 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019(a) | | 2019 Remaining | | Total 2019 |
(In millions of Canadian dollars) | | | | | |
Sustaining capital expenditures | 14.2 | | | 5.1 | | | 19.3 | |
Expansion capital expenditures | 19.6 | | | 15.6 | | | 35.2 | |
________
(a)Nine months ended September 30, 2019 amounts exclude $4.2 million of net changes from accrued capital expenditures, contractor retainage, and other.

(a) Amounts include both continuing and discontinued operations.
Operating Activities
The net decrease of $489.2 million in cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily attributable to:
•a $320.0 million decrease in cash attributable to income tax payments made in 2019 primarily associated with the tax gain on the Trans Mountain Transaction; and,
•a $169.2 million decrease in cash primarily due to the Trans Mountain Transaction in 2018.
Investing Activities
The $3,498.3 million net decrease in cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily attributable to:
•a $3,958.3 million decrease in cash reflecting proceeds from the Trans Mountain Transaction, net of cash disposed in the 2018 period, and a final working capital payment made in the 2019; and
•a $16.6 million decrease in cash provided by proceeds received from the sale of assets and other activities in the 2018 period; partially offset by,
•a $469.5 million decrease in capital expenditures primarily due to the Trans Mountain Transaction in the 2018 period; and
•a $7.1 million decrease in cash used due to lower contributions made to our reclamation trusts compared to the 2018 period, which included 2018 payments for a reclamation trust in the Trans Mountain Asset Group.
Financing Activities
The net increase of $4,396.4 million in cash used in financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 was primarily attributable to:
•a combined $3,977.4 million distribution of the Trans Mountain Transaction proceeds. See Note 2 “Trans Mountain Transaction” for further information regarding this activity;
•a $514.9 million decrease in net borrowings under our credit facilities in the 2019 period compared with the 2018 period; and
•a $1.1 million increase in cash dividends paid to preferred shareholders in the 2019 period compared to the 2018 period; partially offset by,
•an $82.4 million decrease in the quarterly distributions paid to voting shareholders in the 2019 period compared to the 2018 period;
•an $8.6 million decrease in cash used associated with a reduction in debt and Preferred Share issuance costs in the 2019 period compared to the 2018 period; and
•a $6 million of payments made related to taxes withheld on vested restricted share unit awards in the 2018 period.
Equity, Dividends, Distributions and Share Buyback Program
As of both September 30, 2019 and October 22, 2019, we had (i) 34,944,993 and 81,353,820 of Restricted Voting Shares and Special Voting Shares outstanding, respectively, with no par value, for an aggregate of 116,298,813 voting shares outstanding; (ii) 12.0 million and 10.0 million of Series 1 Preferred Shares and Series 3 Preferred Shares outstanding, respectively; and (iii) 312,430 of restricted share unit awards outstanding.
Return of Capital, Stated Capital Reduction and Share Consolidation
As discussed in Note 2 “Trans Mountain Transaction” and Part I, Item 2. “Recent Developments”, on January 3, 2019, distributions were made for the Return of Capital. To facilitate the Return of Capital and provide flexibility for dividends going forward, our voting shareholders also approved (i) the Stated Capital Reduction and (ii) the Share Consolidation, which occurred on January 4, 2019.
Dividends and Distributions on Restricted Voting Shares and Special Voting Shares
The Limited Partnership currently makes quarterly cash distributions to the Company (as an indirect holder of Class A
Units and Preferred LP Units, through the General Partner) and to Kinder Morgan (as an indirect holder of Class B Units) in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement. Distributions are not guaranteed and are subject to the approval of the General Partner. To the extent distributions are approved, all distributions on the Class A Units and Preferred LP Units are immediately distributed by the General Partner to the Company, which then uses such distributions to pay dividends to the holders of (i) then outstanding Preferred Shares of the Company (currently being Series 1 Preferred Shares and Series 3 Preferred Shares) pursuant to the terms of such Preferred Shares; and (ii) Restricted Voting Shares pursuant to the Company's dividend policy.
Effective January 16, 2019, our board of directors suspended the dividend reinvestment plan for our Restricted Voting Shares.
On October 15, 2019, our board of directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.1625 per Restricted Voting Share for the three months ended September 30, 2019 to be paid on November 15, 2019 to shareholders of record on October 31, 2019.
Dividends on Series 1 Preferred Shares and Series 3 Preferred Shares
We also pay dividends on our 12,000,000 Series 1 Preferred Shares and 10,000,000 Series 3 Preferred Shares, which are fixed, cumulative, preferential, and payable quarterly in the annual amount of $1.3125 per share and $1.3000 per share, respectively, on the 15th day of February, May, August and November, as and when declared by our board of directors, for the initial fixed rate period to but excluding November 15, 2022 and February 15, 2023, respectively.
On October 15, 2019, our board of directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.328125 per Series 1 preferred share and $0.3250 per Series 3 preferred share, each payable on November 15, 2019 to Series 1 and Series 3 preferred shareholders of record as of October 31, 2019.
Share Buyback Program
On July 17, 2019, we announced that our board of directors approved a normal course issuer bid (the “NCIB”) to repurchase up to 1,999,902 Restricted Voting Shares for cancellation during the 12-month period from July 22, 2019 to July 21, 2020. Subsequently, under terms of the agreement for Pembina's acquisition of our common equity, we agreed to not repurchase any Restricted Voting Shares under the NCIB. No Restricted Voting Shares have been purchased under the NCIB.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
There have been no material changes in market risk exposures that would affect the quantitative and qualitative disclosures presented as of December 31, 2018 in Item 7A in our 2018 Form 10-K. For more information on our risk management activities, see Item 1, Note 6 “Risk Management and Financial Instruments” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
As of September 30, 2019, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon and as of the date of the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
