CALGARY, AB, Dec. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ – Parkland Corporation (”Parkland”, “we”, the “Company”, or “our”) (TSX: PKI), announced today, that following the restart of the Trans Mountain Pipeline (”the Pipeline”) on December 5, 2021, it is ramping-up processing operations at the Burnaby Refinery (the “Refinery”). The Pipeline is the primary source of crude oil feedstock to the refinery.

“Having maintained the refinery in ready-mode and following delivery of sufficient, consistent quality crude oil feedstocks via the pipeline, we are ramping-up processing operations,” said Ryan Krogmeier, SVP Supply, Trading and Refining. “I am proud of the Parkland team. Throughout the pause in processing operations, we played a critical role importing essential fuels into our British Columbia terminals, from where they were stored and distributed to our customers across the lower mainland and Vancouver Island.”

“We are grateful to Parkland and the team at the Burnaby Refinery for ensuring British Columbians in the Lower Mainland and on Vancouver Island continued to enjoy reliable access to the fuels they depend on over the past several weeks,” said The Hon. Bruce Ralston, Minister of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation. “During times of crisis we are reminded of the value of partnership between our communities and the essential businesses that support them.”

Refinery Operational Status and Guidance
The shutdown of the Pipeline, on November 14, 2021, resulted in a lack of available crude oil feedstocks into the Burnaby Refinery. As a direct result, processing operations were significantly reduced from November 15, 2021, paused between November 22, 2021 and December 10, 2021, and began to ramp-up from December 11, 2021.

Primarily driven by the pipeline shutdown and pending the continued successful ramp-up of processing operations, we now expect 2021 Adjusted EBITDA (attributable to Parkland) will be close to the midpoint of our guidance of $1.25 billion.

Parkland remains confident in its 2022 guidance and reaffirms our previously disclosed Adjusted EBITDA (attributable to Parkland) of $1.45 billion +/- 5 percent. This is up approximately 16 percent from 2021 guidance, and approximately 50 percent from 2020.

CALGARY, AB, Nov. 30, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ – Parkland Corporation (”Parkland”, “we”, the “Company”, or “our”) (TSX: PKI), a leading consolidator of convenience retail and fuel marketing businesses, announced today it has entered into an agreement to acquire approximately 156 retail locations, from Cenovus Energy Inc.

This Acquisition bolsters Parkland’s existing Canadian convenience retail network by adding high-quality retail locations in Greater Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Calgary, and the Greater Toronto area.

“This acquisition is a natural fit for Parkland,” said Donna Sanker, President Parkland Canada. “Consistent with our recently announced strategy to develop our retail network in key Canadian markets and diversify our retail business to better serve our customers, it provides an opportunity to create convenience destinations by expanding our ON the RUN convenience brand, enhancing food offerings, and strengthening the Parkland national network for JOURNIE™ Rewards.”

This Acquisition includes 109 company owned sites and 47 dealer locations and is expected to add annual fuel volumes of approximately 400 million litres to our network.

“The Acquisition is a unique opportunity to expand our coverage in markets where Parkland has an existing supply advantage and offsets a portion of our planned organic growth capital,” added Sanker. “We will convert a significant number of the company owned sites to ON the RUN and accelerate our plan to build a network of over 1,000 ON the RUN locations in Canada and the U.S. by 2025.”

The total cash consideration for this transaction is approximately $156 million and reflects a post-synergy multiple consistent with certain prior transactions of approximately 5 times. Subject to approval under the Competition Act (Canada) and other closing conditions, the transaction is expected to close in mid-2022.

CALGARY, AB, Nov. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Parkland Corporation (”Parkland”, “we”, “our”, or “the Company”) (TSX: PKI) announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange (”TSX”) has accepted the Company’s notice of intention to implement a normal course issuer bid (the “NCIB”) during the 12-month period commencing December 1, 2021 and ending November 30, 2022.

On November 25, 2021, Parkland had 152,457,236 common shares issued and outstanding. Under the NCIB, a maximum of 15,091,885 common shares (representing 10% of the public float of common shares as of November 25, 2021) may be repurchased by Parkland in open market transactions on the TSX during the 12-month period commencing December 1, 2021 and ending November 30, 2022.

“In the right conditions, and in addition to our regular monthly dividend, the NCIB will provide optionality to return additional capital to shareholders,” said Bob Espey, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We will continue to exercise strict capital discipline, and the decision to repurchase Parkland shares will be evaluated against our other investment opportunities and leverage guidelines. We are focused on creating long-term shareholder value, and only our most accretive opportunities will secure capital.”

The NCIB is intended to augment Parkland’s ongoing return of capital to shareholders through dividends. Parkland believes that the market price of its common shares may not, from time to time, accurately reflect their underlying value. Accordingly, purchasing its own common shares for cancellation under the NCIB may represent an attractive investment opportunity to enhance shareholder value.

The common shares will be purchased through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative trading systems in Canada at the prevailing market price at the time of purchase. All common shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled. In accordance with the rules of the TSX, any daily repurchases (other than pursuant to a block purchase exception) on the TSX under the NCIB are limited to a maximum of 94,920 common shares, which represents 25% of the average daily trading volume on the TSX of 379,683 for the six months ended October 31, 2021. The actual number of common shares that may be purchased under the NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by Parkland. There can be no assurance as to the precise number of common shares that will be purchased under the NCIB, if any. Parkland may discontinue purchases under the NCIB at any time, subject to compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.

“Due to a lack of crude oil supply from the Trans Mountain Pipeline, we are maintaining the refinery in ready-mode,” said Ryan Krogmeier, SVP Supply, Trading and Refining. “Ready-mode, is a state of operational readiness which positions us to recommence processing once sufficient crude oil feedstocks become available.”

While the refinery’s processing operations are being paused, its blending, shipping, terminal, and rack activities remain operational. This enables available fuels to be offloaded from ships and rail directly into the refinery, from where they can be stored and distributed across the lower mainland and Vancouver Island.

“We are focused on serving our customers and communities,” added Krogmeier. “Our teams are working tirelessly to source and import available refined fuels. By leveraging our supply capabilities and infrastructure at the refinery, we are confident in our ability to keep our retail and commercial locations supplied with fuel.”

ZUG, Switzerland, July 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Global leader in flexible workspace solutions, International Workplace Group has opened its first property in the Cayman Islands.

Located in the capital George Town just five minutes from George Town Cruise port, the Regus centre opened to an event attended by the territory’s premier Wayne Panton, tourism minister Kenneth Bryan as well as members of senior government, the Chamber of Commerce, and business leaders from around the region.

Designed to serve local enterprises and entrepreneurs, Regus provides flexible workspace solutions for modern-day businesses, which, in tandem with government initiatives such as the Global Citizen Concierge Programme – a campaign to attract digital nomads to the territory – provide a springboard for growth and business development.

“The appetite for flexible, co-working spaces was growing in Cayman pre-COVID and the pandemic has only increased demand now that work habits have changed significantly. There is also a clear international demand from those who wish to take advantage of the Regus network and the Government’s Global Citizen Concierge Program, and we’ve been delighted to welcome several new members who seek a professional and flexible workspace under this initiative,” says Sophia List, Client Relationship Officer of the Regus Cayman location.

IWG has been at the fore of global workspace solutions for more than 30 years, with 2021 serving as a record year for the company, which added half a million users to its network in just the first quarter. The pandemic has had a dramatic impact on the way people work, with companies of all sizes indicating that hybrid work is here for the long term.

The addition of the Regus centre in George Town demonstrates the workplace provider’s investment in Grand Cayman’s capital, a move that will promote the brand’s expansion throughout the Caribbean, adding to locations in Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago.
