Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (NYSE: PAA) and Plains GP Holdings (NYSE: PAGP) today announced their quarterly distributions with respect to the third quarter of 2017.

Consistent with the action plan communicated on its August 25, 2017 conference call, PAA announced a quarterly cash distribution of $0.30 per common unit ($1.20 per unit on an annualized basis). PAGP announced a corresponding quarterly cash distribution of $0.30 per Class A share ($1.20 per Class A share on an annualized basis). Such distributions represent a 45% reduction relative to the quarterly distributions paid in August 2017. Cash retained will be used to reduce indebtedness. With respect to PAA’s Series A Preferred Units, PAA announced a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) of the quarterly distribution, which will result in the issuance of an additional 1,366,593 Series A Preferred Units. The PIK amount equates to a quarterly distribution of $0.525 per Series A Preferred Unit, or $2.10 annualized. These distributions will be payable on November 14, 2017 to holders of record of each security at the close of business on October 31, 2017.

For its Series B Preferred Units issued on October 10, 2017, PAA announced an initial partial-period distribution of $5.9549 per Series B Preferred Unit, which will be payable on November 15, 2017 to holders of record at the close of business on November 1, 2017.

The PAGP cash distribution is expected to be a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of a Class A Shareholder’s tax basis in each PAGP Class A Share and a reduction in the tax basis of that Class A Share. To the extent any cash distribution exceeds a Class A Shareholder’s tax basis, it should be taxable as capital gains.
