CALGARY, AB, Nov. 3, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ – Parkland Corporation (”Parkland”, “we”, “our”, or “the Company”) (TSX: PKI) is pleased to announce that through its wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, “Parkland USA”), it has entered into an agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of Urbieta Oil Co. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Urbieta”). This acquisition complements Parkland’s existing Florida commercial business by establishing a large retail and convenience growth platform with high quality real estate in Miami.

“This acquisition advances our growth strategy to increase our convenience retail presence in a region where we have had success with fuel supply and commercial operations,” said Doug Haugh, President of Parkland USA. “Adding the Urbieta stores nearly doubles our U.S. retail business, provides immediate scale in a resilient, fast-growing market, and creates opportunity to meet customers’ needs through our ON the RUN convenience brand”.

Family owned and operated since 1974, Urbieta is a well-established retail, convenience, and fuel distribution business with 2020 annual fuel sales of approximately 465 million litres. Urbieta’s operations are concentrated in the Miami market. The transaction includes 94 retail locations including the real estate purchase of 54 strategic sites.

“In addition to adding an exceptional team, this acquisition provides a springboard for growth in the Southern Florida market with close proximity to our Caribbean business,” added Haugh. “The fragmented U.S. market presents a long runway of consolidation opportunities for Parkland to build scale, and better serve our customers. We will remain disciplined in our appraisal of the opportunities we see in front of us.”

The valuation metrics of this transaction reflect Urbieta’s scale, significant retail weighting and the purchase of strategic real estate. Gross profit from the acquired assets is split approximately 85 percent retail and 15 percent commercial and wholesale operations. 90 percent of the transaction consideration will be funded out of existing credit facility capacity, and the remaining 10 percent with Parkland common shares issued from treasury. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021.

CALGARY, AB, Nov. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Parkland Corporation (”Parkland”, “we”, the “Company”, or “our”) (TSX: PKI) today announced its financial and operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. Highlights for the three months ended September 30, 2021 (”Q3 2021″) include¹:

• Record Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parkland (”Adjusted EBITDA”) of $364 million, up 8 percent year-over-year, underpinned by record Adjusted EBITDA in our International and U.S. segments that reflect accretive acquisitions and realized synergies, record co-processing volumes at the Burnaby refinery, consistent execution, and ongoing post-COVID economic recovery.
• Net earnings attributable to Parkland of $115 million, or $0.76 per share, basic, an increase of approximately 50 percent relative to the prior year, and record Adjusted earnings attributable to Parkland (”Adjusted earnings”) of $107 million, or $0.70 per share, basic, up approximately 15 percent year-over-year.
• Trailing twelve-month distributable cash flow per share of $4.72, an increase of approximately 44 percent relative to prior year of $3.28.
• Co-processed a record 33 million litres (2,300 barrels per day) of bio-feedstock at the Burnaby Refinery, helping our customers decarbonize their operations and placing us on track to achieve our target of 100 million litres, which is equivalent to taking over 80,000 passenger vehicles off the road in 2021.

“I want to congratulate the entire Parkland team for delivering the strongest quarterly and year-to-date results in Parkland’s history,” said Bob Espey, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Underpinned by our quality brands and consistent ability to anticipate and meet the evolving needs of our customers, including meeting a growing need for low-carbon fuels, we delivered $1 billion of Adjusted EBITDA during the first nine months of the year, demonstrating the strength and growth trajectory of our company.”

“Each segment of our business performed strongly,” added Espey. “From record results in our USA and International segments, ongoing post-COVID economic recovery in Canada and record co-processing volumes in Burnaby, our teams have set us up for a strong finish to the year. We remain focused on maintaining our financial strength and have high confidence in achieving the upper end of our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance and longer-term growth ambition.”

Q3 2021 Segment Highlights²

• Our Canadian segment delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $105 million, down 18 percent relative to Q3 2020. Lower unit fuel margins, reduced benefit from the COVID-related wage assistance program and a shift in product mix were partially offset by recovering volumes and growth in merchandise gross profit. Company C-store same-store sales growth (”SSSG”) was 1.7 percent excluding cigarettes, driven by growth in high margin categories including beverages, centre of store and food service. We continue to optimize results by leveraging our proprietary brands, including ON the RUN and 59th Street, at company owned retail sites and our JOURNIE^TM rewards program, which now has more than 2.5 million members.
• Our International segment delivered record Adjusted EBITDA of $83 million, up 8 percent relative to Q3 2020. Results were underpinned by a strong base business, the successful integration of the Isla Dominicana de Petroleo Corp. joint venture and other acquisitions, plus recovering onshore and aviation volumes driven by the slowly recovering tourism industry.
• Our USA segment delivered record Adjusted EBITDA of $44 million, up 110 percent relative to Q3 2020. Results were driven by the impact of acquisitions and synergies, new business wins including national accounts, and a robust summer driving season, which offset weakness of marine bunkering in our Florida market due to COVID.
• Our Supply segment delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $161 million, up 30 percent relative to Q3 2020. We continue to reliably and safely operate the Burnaby refinery delivering composite utilization of 101 percent (92 percent in Q3 2020) and co-processed a record 33 million litres of bio-feedstock, resulting in year-to-date compliance cost savings of more than $35 million³. Recovering fuel volumes underpinned strong margins in our integrated logistics business. Planned maintenance at the Burnaby refinery commenced in early October and the refinery was substantially operational by the end of October 2021.
• Corporate Adjusted EBITDA expense of $29 million, was consistent with pre-COVID Q3 2019 and up from $12 million in Q3 2020, reflecting reduced benefit from the COVID related wage assistance program and administrative costs to support the partial return to pre-COVID business activities and growth programs.

Developing our Business: A Track-Record of Disciplined and Accretive Acquisitions

From late last year, we have announced or closed 13 accretive acquisitions for an investment of approximately $850 million, including purchase price adjustments. The Total Funded Debt to Credit Facility EBITDA ratio of 3.2 times as of September 30, 2021 reflects the closing of three previously announced acquisitions. There are no credit facility or bond maturities until 2026 and the company has significant financial liquidity. Highlights from the third quarter include:

• Announced the acquisition of Montreal-based Pétroles Crevier Inc. Expected to close in Q1 2022, this acquisition will extend our existing retail network in Quebec and expand our presence in key markets.
• Signed and closed agreements to acquire Colorado-based Master Petroleum, North Dakota-based Red Carpet Carwash and Florida-based Bradenton Fuel Oil, all of which strategically build upon our existing capabilities in those regions.

Our Sustainability Journey

As we advance our sustainability journey, we are committed to providing regular updates on our environmental, social and governance efforts as part of our normal disclosure process. Q3 2021 highlights include:

• As part of our commitment to help our customers decarbonize their operations and essential mobility needs, we delivered another co-processing record at the Burnaby refinery. The refinery co-processed approximately 33 million litres of Canadian bio-feedstock during the third quarter of 2021, for a total of 82 million litres during the first nine months of 2021. We are on track to achieve our target of 100 million litres, which will have the equivalent effect of taking over 80,000 passenger vehicles off the road in 2021.
• Consistent with our commitment to Board renewal, we appointed two new Board members, Angela John and Richard Hookway. Together they bring extensive global experience in supply, low carbon technologies and in creating value across the entire downstream value chain. We expect Parkland, and our shareholders, will benefit greatly from their contributions.
• In July 2021, we launched a Diversity and Inclusion Leadership program to a selection of our Vice Presidents, Directors and Managers across all regions completing over 500 hours of training. We also hosted Pride Month events, Hispanic Heritage month events and held other events hosted by our Women’s network.
• Throughout September, employees in all our operating geographies came together to recognize Canada’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This included a virtual event hosted by senior leaders and attended by approximately 800 employees that featured a former-elected chief, and residential school survivor and author. The event was designed to educate our employees on the history of Canadian Indigenous people.

Parkland’s second Sustainability report will be issued in the fourth quarter and will provide enhanced disclosure, including greenhouse gas reduction targets.

Changes to Dividend Reinvestment Plan

On November 2, 2021, the Company announced a reduction of the Enhanced Dividend Reinvestment Plan (”Enhanced DRIP”) from a 5 percent per share discount to a 2 percent per share discount, effective immediately.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (”IFRS”). Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted gross margin are measures of segment profit and non-GAAP financial measures. Total funded debt to credit facility EBITDA ratio, Adjusted earnings, distributable cash flow, and distributable cash flow per share attributable to Parkland are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures used by other issuers. Management considers these to be important supplemental measures of Parkland’s performance and believes these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. See Section 14 of the Q3 2021 MD&A for a discussion of non-GAAP measures, the reasons Parkland considers it appropriate for supplemental analysis and their reconciliations to the nearest applicable IFRS measure.

In addition to non-GAAP financial measures, Parkland uses a number of operational KPIs, such as Company C-Store SSSG, refinery utilization and composite refinery utilization, to measure the success of our strategic objectives and to set variable compensation targets for employees. These KPIs are not accounting measures, do not have comparable IFRS measures, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers, as other issuers may calculate these metrics differently. See Section 14 of the Q3 2021 MD&A for further details.

Investors are cautioned that these measures should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings determined in accordance with IFRS as an indication of Parkland’s performance.

CaribPR Wire, CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 05, 2021: Parkland Corporation (”Parkland”, “we”, the “Company”, or “our”) (TSX:PKI) today announced its financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 (”Q2 2021″), raised its full-year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance to $1.25 billion +/- 5 percent, and lowered its 2021 Capital Expenditure Guidance range by $50 million to between $350 – $500 million. Highlights include¹:

• Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parkland (”Adjusted EBITDA”) of $322 million, up 69 percent year-over-year, underpinned by continued strong marketing performance and organic growth, high utilization at the Burnaby refinery, acquisitions, and volume recovery.
• Adjusted earnings attributable to Parkland (”Adjusted earnings”) of $96 million, or $0.64 per share, basic, up $106 million year-over-year. Net loss attributable to Parkland was $57 million, or $0.38 per share, basic. The variance between Adjusted Earnings and Net loss attributable to Parkland was mainly due to a non-cash charge related to the valuation of the Sol Put Option and one-time costs associated with the early redemption of senior notes. See section 14 of the Q2 2021 MD&A for a reconciliation of Adjusted Earnings to net earnings (loss).
• Cash generated from operating activities of $322 million, compared to $629 million in the prior year. The comparable quarter in 2020 included a $425 million working capital inflow due to COVID-19 related impacts, including payment extensions for certain government duties and taxes, and lower product demand and prices.
• Total Funded Debt to Credit Facility EBITDA ratio of 3.0 times as of June 30, 2021.
• Completed private offering of US$800 million 4.50% Senior Notes due in 2029, with proceeds used to redeem notes due in 2025 and 2026.
• Completed private offering of $600 million 3.875% senior unsecured notes due 2026, our lowest interest rate achieved to date, with proceeds used to repay certain outstanding amounts under existing revolving credit facilities.
• We are on track with our 2021 target for 100 million litres of bio-feedstock co-processing at the Burnaby refinery, which has the equivalent effect of taking over 80,000 passenger vehicles off the road.
• 2021 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance increased by $50 million to $1.25 billion +/- 5 percent, and total 2021 Capital expenditures reduced by $50 million to between $350 – $500 million.

¹ Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted earnings and Total Funded Debt to Credit Facility EBITDA ratio are Non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to similar measures of other issuers. See Section 14 of the MD&A

“I am proud of the Parkland team, who once again delivered excellent financial and operating results,” said Bob Espey, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to advance our proven strategy through consistent operational execution, organic growth, financial discipline and accretive acquisitions. In parallel, our announcement of British Columbia’s largest network of electric vehicle ultra-fast chargers is a natural extension of our energy transition activities.”

“Our strong base business, ongoing economic recovery and contribution from acquisitions gives us confidence to raise our full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance,” added Espey. “Each segment of our business has a pipeline of attractive growth opportunities that underpin our ambition for $2 billion run-rate Adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2025. We are excited about the future and remain focused on maintaining our financial strength and delivering sustainable, long-term distributable cash flow growth on a per share basis.”

Q2 2021 Segment Highlights

• Our Canada segment delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $101 million, up 9 percent relative to Q2 2020. This performance was driven by strong per unit fuel margins, recovering volumes, and growth in non-fuel gross profit. Company C-store same-store sales growth (”SSSG”) was 8.6 percent excluding cigarettes, driven by growth in high margin categories including beverages, car wash and Triple O’s. Company C-Store SSSG was (3.2) percent including cigarettes, due to temporary COVID-19 related closures of competing sales channels in Q2 2020.
• Our International segment delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $66 million, up 22 percent relative to Q2 2020. Results were driven by strong base business and per unit margins, robust wholesale volumes, and continued benefits from sustainable cost control initiatives.
• Our USA segment delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $31 million, up 15 percent relative to Q2 2020. We benefited from acquisitions and organic growth, recovering volumes, strong operational performance and continued to successfully manage an inflationary environment.
• Our Supply segment delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $154 million, up 340 percent relative to Q2 2020 which included a scheduled turnaround at the Burnaby refinery. We operated safely, maintained record co-processing volumes, delivered composite refinery utilization of 97 percent (65 percent in Q2 2020) and strong performance in our integrated logistics business.
• Corporate Adjusted EBITDA expense of $30 million, up $12 million relative to Q2 2020, reflecting variable costs connected to volume recovery and reduced benefit from COVID-19 related wage assistance programs.

A Track-Record of Disciplined and Accretive Acquisitions

From November 2020 through August 5, 2021, and following a purposeful pause in the early stages of COVID-19, we have announced approximately $800 million of acquisitions. In aggregate, these transactions are expected to be immediately accretive to distributable cash flow per share, and approximately 8 percent accretive post-synergies.

Highlights from Q2 2021 include:

• Completed the acquisition of Conrad & Bischoff Inc. and its related companies, adding a high-quality retail network to our U.S. portfolio, strengthening our supply advantage, and establishing a fourth U.S. Regional Operating Center in the Pacific Northwest. The acquisition closed on April 7.
• Announced three transactions in our International segment through our 75 percent ownership in Sol Investments SEZC (“Sol”), which strengthen our network and extend our portfolio of growth opportunities. We purchased an aviation business and associated infrastructure with operations in Puerto Rico which improves our regional aviation portfolio (closed June 14). Through the contribution of our on-shore Dominican Republic (”DR”) assets and a follow-on investment, the second transaction includes Sol becoming a 50 percent indirect partner in Isla Dominicana de Petroleo Corp., creating the largest retail network in the DR (closed July 1). The third transaction positions us as the leading fuel marketer in St. Maarten (closed July 17).

Subsequent to Q2 2021, we have continued to advance our acquisition strategy. Details as follows:

• On July 6, 2021, we announced the acquisition of Montreal-based Pétroles Crevier Inc. Expected to close in Q1 2022, this acquisition will extend our existing retail network in Quebec and expand our presence in key markets.
• On July 27, 2021, we signed an agreement to acquire Colorado-based Master Petroleum. Expected to close in Q3 2021, this acquisition will expand our commercial business in our Rockies Regional Operating Center.
• On July 30, 2021, we signed an agreement to acquire North Dakota-based Red Carpet Carwash. Expected to close in Q3 2021, this acquisition adds 12 quality retail sites with large format convenience stores and a premium car wash business in our Northern Tier Regional Operating Center.

Our Sustainability Journey

As we advance our sustainability journey, we are committed to providing regular updates on our environmental, social and governance efforts as part of our normal disclosure process. Q2 2021 highlights include:

• As a natural extension to our energy transition activities, we announced plans to launch the largest network (by site count) of electric vehicle ultra-fast chargers in British Columbia. Strategically located on major highways and in key cities and towns across our extensive retail portfolio, this network of approximately 25 high-quality sites will stretch from Vancouver Island to Calgary and is expected to open to customers in 2022.
• Maintained our previous quarter’s record volumes at the Burnaby refinery by co-processing approximately 25 million litres of Canadian bio-feedstocks. We are on track with our 2021 target of 100 million litres, which has the equivalent effect of taking over 80,000 passenger vehicles off the road.
• We continue to celebrate and embed Diversity and Inclusion (”D&I”) across the business. In 2021, our Senior Leadership Team has completed 88 hours of D&I training, and our employees have completed over 1,000 hours. Through the quarter, we hosted Pride Month events attended by over 900 employees and our Women’s network ran employee events focused on balancing work and life.
• Effective August 5, 2021, and consistent with our commitment to Board renewal, we appointed Angela John and Richard Hookway to our Board of Directors. They bring extensive global experience in supply, low carbon technologies and in creating value across the entire downstream value chain. We expect the Board, and our shareholders will benefit greatly from their contributions.

Updated 2021 Guidance

We are focused on advancing our strategy through consistent operational execution and organic growth, strengthening our supply advantage, and making disciplined, accretive acquisitions. While we remain vigilant to potential ongoing impacts of COVID-19, the combination of strong year-to-date performance, volume recovery, pace of capital spend, and confidence in our trajectory through the second half of 2021 supports the following updates to our 2021 Guidance:

• Adjusted EBITDA (attributable to Parkland) increased by $50 million, to $1.25 billion +/- 5 percent.
• Growth capital expenditures (attributable to Parkland) reduced by $25 million (now $150 – $250 million) and Maintenance capital expenditures (attributable to Parkland) reduced by $25 million (now $200 – $250 million), reflecting changes to timing and COVID-19 related delays.

The factors and assumptions which contribute to Parkland’s assessment of the 2021 Guidance are consistent with existing Parkland disclosures and such Guidance is subject to risks and uncertainties inherent in Parkland’s business. Readers are directed to the “Risk Factors” section in the Q2 2021 MD&A and the Annual Information Form for a description of such factors, assumptions, risks and uncertainties. All other elements of Parkland’s original 2021 guidance remain unchanged.

When used in this news release the words “expect”, “will”, “could”, “would”, “believe”, “continue”, “pursue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, this news release contains forward-looking statements with respect to, among other things, business objectives and strategies, Parkland’s ambition to generate run-rate Adjusted EBITDA of $2 billion by 2025 and the key strategic pillars underpinning such ambition, Parkland’s 2021 Adjusted EBITDA and maintenance and capital expenditures guidance, expected benefits and synergies to be derived from acquisitions, potential future acquisition opportunities, expected closing dates of announced transactions, expected transaction multiples based on annual run-rate Adjusted EBITDA, expected post-synergy accretion rates, expected timing of the opening of Parkland’s electric vehicle ultra-fast charging network in British Columbia, and Parkland’s ability to advance its growth agenda. Expected accretion to distributable cash flow per share also reflects Adjusted EBITDA expectations plus anticipated tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures, additional interest expense and other adjusting items. This is calculated relative to weighted average shares outstanding in the trailing twelve-month period ended June 30, 2021, plus pending equity issuance as part of the Crevier transaction consideration.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (”IFRS”). Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit, total funded debt to credit facility EBITDA ratio, Adjusted earnings, distributable cash flow, distributable cash flow per share, and growth and maintenance capital expenditures attributable to Parkland are not measures recognized under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Management considers these to be important supplemental measures of Parkland’s performance and believes these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. See Section 14 of the Q2 2021 MD&A for a discussion of non-GAAP measures, and the reasons Parkland considers it appropriate for supplemental analysis and their reconciliations to the nearest applicable IFRS measure.

In addition to non-GAAP financial measures, Parkland uses a number of operational KPIs, such as Company C-Store SSSG, refinery utilization and composite refinery utilization, to measure the success of our strategic objectives and to set variable compensation targets for employees. These KPIs are not accounting measures, do not have comparable IFRS measures, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers, as other issuers may calculate these metrics differently. See Section 14 of the Q2 2021 MD&A for further details.

Investors are cautioned that these measures should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings determined in accordance with IFRS as an indication of Parkland’s performance.

CaribPR Wire, CALGARY, Alberta, July 06, 2021: Parkland Corporation (“Parkland”, “we”, “our”, or “the Company”) (TSX:PKI) is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement to acquire Pétroles Crevier Inc. (“Crevier”) (a subsidiary of Crevier Group), which is a well-established retail and wholesale business based in Montreal, Canada. This is Parkland’s eighth acquisition announced year-to-date, each of which supports our growth strategy and moves us toward our ambition for $2 billion of run-rate Adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2025.

“This acquisition extends our existing retail network in Quebec and expands our presence in key markets,” said Donna Sanker, President of Parkland Canada. “We believe we can add significant value by deploying our proven retail capabilities, proprietary Marche Express (ON the RUN) convenience and Ultramar forecourt brands, and JOURNIE™ Rewards loyalty program. We look forward to continuing to provide Crevier’s customers with essential products and exceptional service.”

Crevier’s operations extend across Quebec, serving customers through a portfolio of 36 company-owned retail locations and 138 retail dealer locations. In addition, Crevier’s large wholesale business and significant unbranded volume enhance our supply advantage and import optionality. This transaction is expected to add annual fuel and petroleum product volume of approximately 700 million litres, of which 70 percent is attributable to wholesale, and annual run-rate Adjusted EBITDA of approximately C$12 million, prior to additional growth and synergy upside.

75 percent of the transaction consideration will be funded out of existing credit facility capacity, and the remaining 25 percent with Parkland common shares issued from treasury. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2022 and is subject to approval under the Competition Act (Canada) and other customary closing conditions.

Strategically located on major highways and in key cities and towns across Parkland’s extensive retail portfolio, this network of approximately 25 high-quality sites will stretch from Vancouver Island to Calgary and is expected to open to customers in 2022.

“Parkland’s purpose is to power journeys and energize communities and for over 50 years we have served our customers’ evolving energy and convenience needs,” said Bob Espey, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Coupled with our track record of renewable fuel manufacturing, our ultra-fast charging network is one of many disciplined, focused investments we are making as part of our approach to energy transition.”

“We are committed to meeting customer demand and learning about customer preferences in emerging EV markets,” added Donna Sanker, President Parkland Canada. “While adoption is in its early phases, BC leads the way in North America, making this province a natural, scalable step for our EV charging network. Our BC retail portfolio covers major population centres and highway corridors and includes our high-quality convenience stores and exclusive Triple O’s food offering. Collectively, these create convenience destinations where customers can shop, eat and use complimentary wi-fi while they charge their vehicles.”

Helping customers make the most of every stop
We will install, own, and operate up to 100 EV ultra-fast charging ports at approximately 25 of our existing retail locations. The charging ports will be branded ON the RUN to connect with our well-established convenience store brand at our retail sites. Highlights will include:

• Network Coverage: Strategically located on highways and in major destinations including Victoria, Nanaimo, Vancouver, Whistler, Abbotsford, Kelowna, Penticton, Kamloops, Revelstoke and into Calgary.
• Ultra-fast Charging: Delivering up to a 150-kilowatt charge, Parkland’s ON the RUN ultra-fast chargers will be capable of delivering up to an 80 percent charge to most EV’s in approximately 20 minutes.
• Customer Amenities and Convenience: Vast majority of locations will feature an ON the RUN convenience store, Triple O’s restaurant and complimentary wi-fi, enabling customers to make the most of every stop.
• Maximum Compatibility: ON the RUN ultra-fast chargers will be compatible with most popular EV models.

Advancing our track record of energy transition leadership
The addition of an EV ultra-fast charging network in BC which connects to Calgary is a natural and scalable extension to how we power our customers’ journeys. In parallel, and as part of our broader energy transition activities, we will continue to focus on our leading renewable fuel manufacturing capabilities in BC. We look forward to providing more details of our energy transition strategy through 2021 and at our November Investor Day.

BERKELEY, Calif., June 10, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Participant Energy announces the commencement of construction on a 14.7 MW solar array in Honduras. The client, Green Valley Industrial Park, located near San Pedro Sula, is a world-class industrial facility with multinational clients such as Lear Corporation, Simtex, and Gildan Textiles.

Participant Energy, a renewable energy developer based in Northern California, began working in Honduras in 2018 after developing solar in Costa Rica as part of that government’s official solar initiative, Plan Piloto. Nick Goodwin Self, CEO of Participant Energy, stated, “We believe that due to the prestige of the client and the fact that this is largest private commercial solar facility built to date in Honduras, this venture will have a catalytic effect on valuable new markets for renewable energy in this sector.” The PPA will save Green Valley 20 percent on their energy costs from day one. Gustavo Raudales, Director General of Grupo Karims, which owns Green Valley Industrial Park, affirmed, “Participant Energy is meeting the challenge we face here in Honduras to develop not only more affordable energy, but clean renewable energy to help grow Honduras’ rising industrial and commercial development, while remaining conscious of increasing environmental concerns.”

Participant Energy, working with industrial-scale agriculture, has developed some of the largest solar arrays in Northern California. The company is also pioneering agricultural waste-to-energy gasification technology to create clean synthetic fuels from rice hulls, nut shells and bagasse. This produce-gas can also be used with linear gas-powered generators to produce electricity for baseload operations, as well as providing emergency back-up generation during periods of grid destabilization.

CaribPRWire, CALGARY, Alberta, May 17, 2021: Parkland Corporation (“Parkland”, “we”, “our”, or “the Company”) (TSX:PKI) is pleased to announce, through its 75 percent ownership in Sol Investments SEZC (“Sol”), two transactions in our International business (the “International transactions”) which provide additional scale in the Caribbean and strengthen our position as a natural acquirer in the region.

“These transactions strengthen Parkland’s network throughout the Caribbean and extend our portfolio of growth opportunities in retail, commercial, LPG and aviation,” said Pierre Magnan, President of Parkland International. “Our International business currently spans 23 countries and provides a platform for continued organic growth and consolidation in the region. We are excited about the opportunity set in the International segment which we expect to play a significant role in achieving Parkland’s 2025 growth ambition.”

Details of the International transactions are as follows:

Creating the Dominican Republic’s largest retail network

Through the contribution of our approximately 80 retail locations, commercial and aviation marketing operations in the Dominican Republic (”DR”) and a follow-on investment, Sol will become a 50 percent indirect partner in Isla Dominicana de Petroleo Corp. (”Isla”). Isla currently operates a high-quality retail network with approximately 160 locations. The combined portfolio will comprise 240 retail locations (the largest retail network in the DR) alongside an integrated commercial and aviation business. As part of the agreement, Isla will operate the joint onshore marketing operations while Parkland will become the principal fuel supplier to the combined network.

Strategic rationale includes:

• A market leading retail network in all major DR population centers with operational synergies
• Strong free cash flow conversion with regulated on-shore margins in a high-growth market
• Unlocks supply synergies through improved scale and optimized shipping logistics
• A new partnership with a shared appetite for continued growth and renewable opportunities

Becoming the leading fuel marketer in St. Maarten

We have signed an agreement for the purchase of an integrated fuel marketing business with operations in St. Maarten. The acquisition includes retail, commercial, marine, LPG distribution and an aviation business. The acquisition strengthens our activities at the Princess Juliana International Airport (a hub for surrounding islands and major North American and European markets) and adds a complementary retail network.

As a result of the acquisition, we will become the leading fuel marketer in the Dutch side of St. Maarten and are well positioned to drive operational synergies.

Together with the Puerto Rico aviation acquisition disclosed with our first quarter 2021 results, the International transactions are expected to increase our International segment’s annual run-rate Adjusted EBITDA including non-controlling interest by approximately C$20 million (C$15 million attributable to Parkland), prior to additional growth and synergy upside.

The International transactions will be funded out of existing credit facility capacity. Subject to customary closing conditions, the transactions are expected to close in the third quarter of 2021.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this news release constitute forward-looking information and statements (collectively, “forward-looking statements”). When used in this news release the words “expect”, “will”, “could”, “would”, “believe”, “continue”, “pursue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, this news release contains forward-looking statements with respect to, among other things: the successful completion of the transactions and timings thereof; expected benefits of the transactions, collectively and independently, as applicable, including without limitation, expected increase to the International segment’s run rate Adjusted EBITDA resulting from the International transactions, strengthening Parkland’s position as a natural acquirer in the region and its network in the Caribbean, extending Parkland’s growth opportunities, the projected growth and synergy upside, organic growth and consolidation opportunities, post-closing synergy opportunities, renewable opportunities, the creation of the largest retail network in DR and the size thereof and becoming the leading fuel marketer in St. Maarten; the International segment’s expected contribution to Parkland’s 2025 growth ambition; and the anticipated funding of the transactions.

These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this news release should not be unduly relied upon. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this news release. Parkland does not undertake any obligations to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as may be required by securities law. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of numerous risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, failure to complete these transactions; failure to satisfy the conditions to closing of the transactions; failure to realize all or any of the anticipated benefits of the transactions; general economic, market and business conditions; competitive action by other companies; refining and marketing margins; the ability of suppliers to meet commitments; actions by governmental authorities and other regulators including but not limited to increases in taxes or restricted access to markets; changes and developments in environmental and other regulations; and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Parkland. See also the risks and uncertainties described in “Forward-Looking Information” and “Risk Factors” included in Parkland’s Annual Information Form dated March 5, 2021 and in “Forward-Looking Information” and “Risk Factors” in Parkland’s annual MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2020 dated March 4, 2021 and in the interim MD&A for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 dated May 3, 2021, each as filed on SEDAR and available on the Parkland website at www.parkland.ca.

Expected increase in our International segment’s annual run-rate Adjusted EBITDA is based on anticipated full-year impact of the combined Puerto Rico aviation acquisition (disclosed May 3, 2021) and the International transactions; future performance of such businesses may differ from expectations due to the numerous risks and uncertainties as noted above. Due to closing date impacts of the transactions and other factors, this does not represent the expected 2021 Adjusted EBITDA impact for the International segment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of segment profit. See Section 9 and Section 14 of the Q1 2021 MD&A and Note 13 of the Q1 2021 FS for a reconciliation of these measures of segment profit. Investors are encouraged to evaluate each measure and the reasons Parkland considers it appropriate for supplemental analysis.

Investors are cautioned that these measures should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings determined in accordance with IFRS as an indication of Parkland’s performance.

CaribPRWire, CALGARY, Alberta, May 03, 2021: Parkland Corporation (”Parkland”, “we”, the “Company”, or “our”) (TSX:PKI) announced today its financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 (”Q1 2021″). Highlights include:

• Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parkland (”Adjusted EBITDA”) of $314 million, up 64 percent year-over-year. Despite continued COVID-19 impacts, we benefited from lower costs, continued strong per unit fuel margins and Company C-store same-store sales growth (”SSSG”) in Canada, U.S. acquisition growth, solid performance in International and higher utilization at the Burnaby refinery.
• Net earnings attributable to Parkland of $31 million, or $0.21 per share, basic, an increase of $110 million relative to prior year.
• Cash flow from operations fully funded capital expenditures, acquisitions and net dividend payments in the quarter.
• Combined Operating and Marketing, General and Administrative (”MG&A”) costs of $331 million, $52 million lower than prior year, reflecting disciplined cost management and the variability in our cost structure.
• Total Funded Debt to Credit Facility EBITDA ratio of 3.0 times as of March 31, 2021.
• Further enhanced financial flexibility through an amended credit facility agreement (maturing 2026) and refinanced senior notes maturing in 2024, 2025 and 2026 with new senior notes maturing in 2029. These actions reduce average annual interest costs by approximately $20 million and extend our nearest senior note maturity to 2027.

“We delivered a strong start to the year and have high confidence in our 2021 outlook,” said Bob Espey, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In addition to strong underlying business performance, we progressed our enterprise-wide organic growth initiatives, announced or closed five transactions, significantly enhanced our financial flexibility and lowered annual interest costs. We are well-positioned to advance our ambitious growth strategy and sustainability journey.”

Q1 2021 Segment Highlights

• In Canada, fuel margins, convenience store sales and lower costs in our retail and commercial business lines drove Adjusted EBITDA of $116 million, up $14 million relative to Q1 2020. Company C-Store SSSG was 5.5 percent, our 21st consecutive quarter of growth. We maintained retail market share, benefited from enhanced digital pricing capabilities and surpassed 1.8 million JOURNIE™ Rewards members.
• In International, enhanced logistics, shipping optimization and the continued benefit of cost control initiatives supported Adjusted EBITDA of $67 million, in-line with Q1 2020. This strong operational execution offset lower tourist activity and an approximate $4 million negative impact from a weakened U.S. dollar.
• In USA, Adjusted EBITDA of $20 million was up $4 million relative to Q1 2020, benefiting from acquisitions announced during the fourth quarter of 2020, our growing supply advantage and national accounts growth. This was partially offset by reduced oil and gas activity in our Northern ROC, lower marine activity in the Southeast ROC and a weaker U.S. dollar.
• In Supply, Adjusted EBITDA of $136 million was up $94 million relative to Q1 2020, primarily driven by Burnaby composite refinery utilization of 91 percent, (31 percent in Q1 2020 due to the scheduled turnaround). Supply benefited from co-processing initiatives and blending optimization at the Burnaby refinery coupled with solid performance from our integrated logistics business.
• Corporate Adjusted EBITDA expense of $25 million, down $11 million relative to Q1 2020, driven by lower realized foreign exchange impacts and disciplined cost management.

$2 billion ambition

Our growth platform is stronger than ever and we have a proven track record of value creation. Underpinned by our disciplined approach to capital allocation, the key pillars of our strategy remain fundamental to our ambition for $2 billion of run-rate Adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2025:

Grow Organically
Robust pipeline of organic growth opportunities in retail, commercial and supply, across all our geographies. Organic growth is supported by strong brands, customer value proposition, loyalty programs and digital insights.

Acquire Prudently & Integrate
Depth of high-quality consolidation opportunities across all of our geographies. Together with our disciplined approach, established integration capabilities and synergy capture, we are well-positioned to add incremental value to acquisitions.

Strong Supply Advantage
Leverage our growing scale, product diversity and capital light infrastructure to enhance margins. Continue to invest in safe and reliable operations and renewable fuel manufacturing at our Burnaby refinery.

One Parkland
Powering journeys and energizing communities through our common values and behaviours. Safe, reliable and local customer service underpinned by organizational capability and a performance driven culture.

“As we continue to meet our customers’ mobility needs, we see growth opportunities across multiple business lines and geographies,” added Espey. “In addition to what has made us successful over the past decade, we see opportunity to grow our renewable fuel business while harnessing our existing network to provide electric vehicle charging options.”

2021 Investor Day

Parkland will host an investor day the morning of November 16, 2021. The event will be held in Toronto, Ontario (level of in-person attendance to be determined) and simultaneously webcast with video, for those unable to attend in-person. Members of Parkland’s leadership team will provide updates on our long-term growth initiatives, renewable fuel and electric vehicle charging opportunities, capital allocation and financial outlook. Registration and other details will be provided closer to the date.

Our Sustainability Journey

As we advance our sustainability journey, we will provide regular updates on our environmental, social and governance efforts as part of our normal disclosure process. Recent highlights include:

• Plan to publish our next Sustainability report in Q4 2021. This disclosure will build upon our inaugural report and will contain an overview of our enterprise-wide sustainability strategy, including GHG emissions reduction targets.
• Continued to increase our renewable fuel manufacturing capability at the Burnaby refinery, co-processing a record 25 million litres of bio-feedstocks during the quarter. We are on track with our 2021 co-processing target of 100 million litres (equivalent effect of taking over 80,000 passenger vehicles off the road).
• On March 1, 2021, we launched a ‘carbon offset’ reward option as part of our JOURNIE™ Rewards program to help our customers offset their own emissions. In the first 30 days, over 23,000 Carbon offsets were selected by JOURNIE™ members with the value directed toward a landfill gas capture and utilization project in Niagara, Ontario, removing the equivalent of more than 3,000 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere. This project helps create healthier communities and promotes sustainable management of greenhouse gases.
• Parkland is committed to diversity at all levels of the organization. The Board of Directors has adopted a written diversity policy which sets a target for women to occupy at least 30 percent of Board seats and executive officer positions by 2023, and 2025, respectively. Women currently occupy 22 percent of Board seats and 20 percent of executive officer positions.

Year-to-date acquisitions

• In January 2021, we completed the acquisition of two Midwest U.S. LPG terminals to expand our integrated logistics business and enhance our overall LPG supply optionality.
• In February 2021, we completed the acquisition of the assets of Story Distributing Company and its affiliates (collectively “Story”). Story is a retail and commercial fuel business based in Bozeman, Montana, which expands our presence in the Montana and Idaho-based markets.
• In March 2021, we completed the acquisition of a residential and commercial LPG distributor in St. Maarten which further supports our LPG growth strategy in the International segment.
• In April 2021, we completed the acquisition of Conrad & Bischoff Inc. and its related companies (collectively, “C&B”). This acquisition establishes our fourth U.S. ROC, strengthens our supply advantage and adds a high-quality retail network to our portfolio. Please see our press release dated February 26, 2021 for more information regarding the acquisition.
• In April 2021, we signed an agreement for the purchase of an aviation business and associated infrastructure with operations in Puerto Rico. The acquisition includes operations at two International airports in Puerto Rico, including the Luis Munoz Marin International Airport, which is the busiest in the Caribbean region. This acquisition expands our presence in the well-diversified Puerto Rico market and unlocks positive network effects for our regional aviation portfolio. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the second quarter of 2021.

When used in this news release the words “expect”, “will”, “could”, “would”, “believe”, “continue”, “pursue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, this news release contains forward-looking statements with respect to, among other things, business objectives and strategies, Parkland’s ambition to generate run-rate Adjusted EBITDA of $2 billion by 2025 and the key strategic pillars underpinning such ambition, Parkland’s 2021 Adjusted EBITDA and maintenance and capital expenditures guidance, expected benefits to be derived from acquisitions, potential future acquisition opportunities, potential growth in Parkland’s renewable fuels business, Parkland’s ability to harness its existing retail network to meet our customer’s mobility needs, including with respect to electric vehicle charging options, Parkland’s robust pipeline of organic growth opportunities, potential projects to extend Parkland’s supply advantage, expected Burnaby refinery utilization rates, and Parkland’s ability to advance its growth agenda.

These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this news release should not be unduly relied upon. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this news release. Parkland does not undertake any obligations to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as required by securities law. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of numerous risks, assumptions and uncertainties including, but not limited to, general economic, market and business conditions, including the duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; Parkland’s ability to execute its business strategies, including without limitation, Parkland’s ability to consistently identify accretive acquisition targets and successfully integrate them, successfully implement organic growth initiatives and to finance such acquisitions and initiatives on reasonable terms; Parkland’s ability to grow its supply advantage by leveraging its scale and infrastructure; industry capacity; competitive action by other companies; refining and marketing margins; the ability of suppliers to meet commitments; actions by governmental authorities and other regulators including but not limited to increases in taxes or restricted access to markets; changes and developments in environmental and other regulations; and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Parkland.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (”IFRS”). Distributable cash flow, distributable cash flow per share, adjusted distributable cash flow, adjusted distributable cash flow per share, total funded debt to credit facility EBITDA ratio, dividend payout ratio, adjusted dividend payout ratio and growth and maintenance capital expenditures attributable to Parkland are not measures recognized under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Management considers these to be important supplemental measures of Parkland’s performance and believes these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. See Section 14 of the Q1 2021 MD&A for a discussion of non-GAAP measures and their reconciliations to the nearest applicable IFRS measure.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted gross profit are measures of segment profit. See Section 9 and Section 14 of the Q1 2021 MD&A and Note 13 of the Q1 2021 FS for a reconciliation of these measures of segment profit. Investors are encouraged to evaluate each measure and the reasons Parkland considers it appropriate for supplemental analysis.

In addition to non-GAAP financial measures, Parkland uses a number of operational KPIs, such as SSSG and refinery utilization, to measure the success of our strategic objectives and to set variable compensation targets for employees. These KPIs are not accounting measures, do not have comparable IFRS measures, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers, as other issuers may calculate these metrics differently. See Section 14 of the Q1 2021 MD&A for further details.

Tons of CO2 equivalent removed from the atmosphere resulting from the JOURNIE™ Rewards ‘carbon offset’ reward option is based on 23,000 carbon offset selections at a price of $3.50 per ton of CO2.

Investors are cautioned that these measures should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings determined in accordance with IFRS as an indication of Parkland’s performance.

CaribPR Wire, HOUSTON, March 16, 2021: The renewable energy transition is complex, but it is possible, practical and affordable. That is the topic global smart technology leader, Wärtsilä, will explore during the S&P Global Platts Central America and Caribbean Energy Webinar March 18. Energy Business Director, Latin America North, Wärtsilä Energy, Sampo Suvisaari; Business Development Manager, Latin America North, Raúl Carral and Business Development Manager, Central America and Caribbean, Francisco Picasso will discuss decarbonization strategies.

Suvisaari will chair the event and moderate the first panel discussion titled Fuel choices and dilemmas; fuel oil and LNG in Central America and the Caribbean.

“In these rapidly changing times for the energy industry in Central America the choice of fuel and of renewable energy deployment is more critical than ever,” Suvisaari said. “Now is the time to think of how to future-proof your investments for the next two decades and beyond.”

The blackouts in Texas and California revealed the need for firm capacity. Carral explains the value of these fuels to Latin America.

“Due to environmental and economic reasons we see in Central America and the Caribbean the continuous strong development of renewable energies like solar and wind power while there is also a continuous emergence of fuels, like natural gas / LNG, propane / LPG, and even ammonia and hydrogen, among others,” Carral said. “These new fuels in the region will prove to be most valuable when they operate with flexible power technologies, which will be also more prominent while integrating intermittent renewable energy.”

Picasso will moderate a panel discussion on renewable energy.

“The path to 100% requires ongoing discussion with thought leaders and industry experts to raise awareness and discover operational and financially realistic approaches to reliable decarbonization,” Picasso added. “A renewable energy future requires addressing economic, technological and political challenges which are different throughout the world.”

The three-hour webinar will begin at 9:00 a.m. EDT on March 18 and there is no charge for the event. Registrations close at 9:00 a.m. on March 17.

Especialistas de Path to 100% comparten los más recientes desarrollos que promueven la transición a la energía renovable

CARIBPR WIRE, HOUSTON, March 17, 2021: La transición hacia la energía renovable es compleja, sin embargo, es posible, práctica y asequible. Ese es el tema que el líder mundial de tecnología inteligente, Wärtsilä, explorará durante el Webinar de Energía en Centroamérica y el Caribe de S&P Global Platts el 18 de marzo. Sampo Suvisaari, director de negocios de energía de Wärtsilä Energy, Norte de América Latina; Raúl Carral gerente de desarrollo de negocios, Norte de América Latina y Francisco Picasso gerente de desarrollo de negocios, Centroamérica y el Caribe tratarán sobre las estrategias de descarbonización.

Suvisaari presidirá el evento y moderará el primer debate titulado, Opciones y dilemas de combustibles; fuelóleo y GNL en Centroamérica y el Caribe.

“En estos tiempos de rápido cambio para el sector energético en Centroamérica, la elección de combustible y de la implementación de energía renovable es más crítica que nunca”, dijo Suvisaari. “Hoy es el momento de pensar en cómo proteger sus inversiones en el futuro para las próximas dos décadas y más adelante”.

Los apagones en Texas y California revelaron la necesidad de capacidad firme. Carral explica el valor de estos combustibles para América Latina.

“Debido a razones ambientales y económicas hemos observado en Centroamérica y el Caribe el desarrollo continuo y fuerte de energías renovables, como la energía solar y eólica, además del surgimiento continuo de combustibles, como gas natural/GNL, propano/GLP, e incluso amoníaco e hidrógeno, entre otros”, dijo Carral. “Estos nuevos combustibles en la región comprobarán ser más valiosos cuando operen con tecnologías de energía flexible, que también serán más prominentes con su integración a la energía renovable intermitente”.

Picasso moderará un debate sobre energía renovable.

“El camino al 100% requiere un debate continuo con líderes visionarios y especialistas del sector para crear mayor conciencia y descubrir enfoques operativos y financieramente realistas para la descarbonización confiable”, agregó Picasso. “Un futuro de energía renovable requiere abordar desafíos económicos, tecnológicos y políticos que son diferentes en todo el mundo”.

El webinar de tres horas comenzará a las 9:00 a.m. EDT el 18 de marzo, el evento no tiene costo. Las inscripciones cierran a las 9:00 a.m. del 17 de marzo.
