Gas supply and demand
AEMO 2019 Gas Statement of Opportunities:
-
Gas Supply from existing and committed gas developments is forecast to meet gas demands until 2023
-
Risks remain that any weather-driven variances could increase gas demand
Transportation costs
-
Gas transmission costs have not increased in real terms for more than a decade
-
Transportation cost is only 8-10% of the final gas price

regulation of Australian gas pipelines
==> picture [104 x 42] intentionally omitted <==
APA pipelines by regulation type
==> picture [308 x 288] intentionally omitted <==
-
In FY2019, 8.3% of APA’s EBITDA in Energy Infrastructure was from full regulated assets
-
Gas pipelines are regulated by the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) or, the Economic Regulation Authority of Western Australia (ERA)
-
Price regulated assets are those which the regulatory authorities have determined, among other things, demonstrate natural monopoly characteristics and a degree of market power
-
• Regulation is under a negotiate-arbitrate framework. Pipeline owners and pipeline users negotiate the terms, conditions and prices for access to pipeline services
-
There are 2 frameworks under the National Gas Rules (NGR):
-
1) Scheme pipelines (NGR Parts 8-12) are subject to either:
-
full regulation, where the AER or ERA must approve a full access arrangement that sets out reference tariffs, terms and conditions, or
-
light regulation, where pipeline owners must publish services and prices and comply with information provision requirements to support negotiations or alternatively seek regulatory approval for a limited access arrangement
-
-
2) Non-Scheme pipelines (NGR Part 23) also reflect the negotiate-arbitrate framework

-
Access • Apply for a term, generally 5 years •
-
arrangement Set out the terms and conditions of third party access, including • At least one reference service that is commonly sought by customers – for pipelines, this is generally firm forward-haulage services
-
• A reference (benchmark) tariff for the reference service
-
Reference • Provides a default tariff for customers seeking the reference service but tariffs can also be tariff negotiated for other services
-
Determined with reference to regulated revenue, capacity and volume forecasts
-
Regulated Determined using the building block approach to recover efficient costs revenue • Forecast operating and maintenance costs • Regulatory asset depreciation and
-
• Return on value of regulated assets (regulated asset base) based on WACC determination
-
• Return is now a binding (defined methodology) rate of return as at Dec 2018 for the next 4 years
-
• WACC based on 60:40 debt equity split
-
•
-
Regulated Opening RABs have been settled with the regulator; there are no reassessments for approved asset base RABs •
-
(RAB) RABs adjusted every access arrangement period
- Increased by capital invested into the asset and reduced by regulatory depreciation costs

All references to dollars, cents or ‘$’ in this presentation are to Australian currency, unless otherwise stated.
Not financial product advice: Please note that Australian Pipeline Limited is not licensed to provide financial product advice in relation to securities in the APA Group. This presentation is for information purposes only and is not financial product or investment advice or a recommendation to acquire APA Group securities and has been prepared without taking into account the objectives, financial situation or needs of individuals. Before making an investment decision, prospective investors should consider the appropriateness of the information having regard to their own objectives, financial situation and needs and seek professional advice if necessary. Past performance: Past performance information should not be relied upon as (and is not) an indication of future performance.
Forward looking statements: This presentation contains certain forward looking information, including about APA Group, which is subject to risk factors. “Forward-looking statements” may include indications of, and guidance on, future earnings and financial position and performance. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as, 'expect', 'anticipate', 'likely', 'intend', 'could', 'may', 'predict', 'plan', 'propose', 'will', 'believe', 'forecast', 'estimate', 'target', 'outlook', 'guidance' and other similar expressions and include, but are not limited to, forecast EBIT and EBITDA, operating cashflow, distribution guidance and estimated asset life.
APA Group believes that there are reasonable grounds for these forward looking statements and due care and attention have been used in preparing this presentation. However, the forward looking statements, opinions and estimates provided in this presentation are based on assumptions and contingencies which are subject to change without notice, as are statements about market and industry trends, which are based on interpretations of current market conditions and are subject to risk factors associated with the industries in which APA Group operates. Forward-looking statements, opinions and estimates are not guarantees or predictions of future performance and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of APA Group, and may involve significant elements of subjective judgement and assumptions as to future events which may or may not be correct. There can be no assurance that actual outcomes will not materially differ from these forward-looking statements, opinions and estimates. A number of important factors could cause actual results or performance to differ materially from such forward-looking statements, opinions and estimates.
Investors should form their own views as to these matters and any assumptions on which any forward-looking statements are based. APA Group assumes no obligation to update or revise such information to reflect any change in expectations or assumptions.
Investment risk: An investment in securities in APA Group is subject to investment and other known and unknown risks, some of which are beyond the control of APA Group. APA Group does not guarantee any particular rate of return or the performance of APA Group.
Non-IFRS financial measures: APA Group results are reported under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). However, investors should be aware that this presentation includes certain financial measures that are non-IFRS financial measures for the purposes of providing a more comprehensive understanding of the performance of the APA Group. These non-IFRS financial measures include EBIT, EBITDA and other “normalised” measures. Such non-IFRS information is unaudited, however the numbers have been extracted from the audited financial statements.
Not an offer: This presentation does not constitute an offer, invitation or recommendation to subscribe for or purchase any security. In particular, this presentation does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities in the United States. Securities may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, in the United States or to persons that are acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States, unless they have been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the U.S. Securities Act), or are offered and sold in a transaction exempt from, or not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and any other applicable state securities laws.
Non-GAAP financial measures: Investors should be aware that certain financial data included in this presentation are "non-GAAP financial measures" under Regulation G of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These measures are EBITDA, normalised EBITDA and statutory EBITDA. The disclosure of such non-GAAP financial measures in the manner included in the presentation may not be permissible in a registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act. These non-GAAP financial measures do not have a standardised meaning prescribed by Australian Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other entities, and should not be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. Although APA Group believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to users in measuring the financial performance and condition of its business, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any non-GAAP financial measures included in this presentation.
