Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements As at and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

(All amounts expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except as otherwise noted) (Unaudited)

1. GENERAL BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

The operating subsidiaries of Keyera Corp. include Keyera Partnership (the “Partnership”), Keyera Energy Ltd. (“KEL”), Keyera Energy Inc. (“KEI”), Keyera Rimbey Ltd. (“KRL”), Keyera RP Ltd. (“KRPL”), Rimbey Pipeline Limited Partnership (“RPLP”), Alberta Diluent Terminal Ltd. (“ADT”) and Alberta EnviroFuels Inc. (“AEF”). Keyera Corp. and its subsidiaries are involved in the business of natural gas gathering and processing; transportation, storage and marketing of natural gas liquids (“NGLs”) and iso-octane in Canada and the United States (“U.S.”); the production of iso-octane; and liquids blending in Canada and the U.S.

Keyera Corp. and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as “Keyera”. The address of Keyera’s registered office and principal place of business is Suite 200, Sun Life Plaza West Tower, 144 – 4th Avenue S.W., Calgary, AB, Canada.

Pursuant to its Articles of Amalgamation, Keyera Corp. is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares (the “Shares”). The Shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “KEY”.

Keyera is approved to issue two classes of preferred shares (one class referred to as the “First Preferred Shares”, a second class referred to as the “Second Preferred Shares”), and collectively both classes being referred to as the “Preferred Shares”. Each are issuable in one or more series without par value and each with such rights, restrictions, designations and provisions as the board of directors may at any time and from time to time determine, subject to an aggregate maximum number of authorized Preferred Shares. No preferred shares had been issued as at March 31, 2020.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting , as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The accounting policies applied are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and are consistent with Keyera Corp.’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2019, except for the adoption of new IFRS standards, amendments and interpretations effective January 1, 2020.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements as at and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 do not include all disclosures required for the preparation of annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Keyera Corp.’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2019.

As detailed in note 2 of the most recent annual consolidated financial statements, effective December 31, 2019, Keyera voluntarily changed its accounting policy for decommissioning liabilities to utilize a creditadjusted risk-free interest rate instead of a risk-free interest rate to determine the present value of the liability at each statement of financial position date. This change in accounting policy was applied retrospectively, including the restatement of certain comparative amounts in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, which have been summarized below.

3. THE EFFECT OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS ON CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic as a result of the emergence and rapid transmission of a novel strain of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”). This pandemic has significantly affected the global economy, disrupting business operations and economic activity worldwide, and drastically reducing the global demand for crude oil. In addition, the decision of certain Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and non-OPEC members to temporarily increase the supply of crude oil during the first quarter of 2020 resulted in severe declines to crude oil and crude-based commodity prices. As a result of this deterioration in market conditions, an unprecedented environment of extreme volatility in financial markets has emerged, and Keyera’s share price has sharply declined since December 31, 2019.

The magnitude of the effect that the COVID-19 pandemic and decline in commodity prices will have on Keyera’s operations and future financial performance is currently unknown. In the application of Keyera’s accounting policies, management is required to make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recorded in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. The current deterioration in market conditions introduce additional uncertainties, risks and complexities in management’s determination of the estimates and assumptions used to prepare Keyera’s financial results. As the COVID-19 pandemic and decline in financial markets is an evolving

KEYERA CORP. Notes to unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements

49

Keyera Corp. TSX: KEY

2020 First Quarter Report May 12, 2020

situation, management cannot reasonably estimate the length or severity of the implications. Actual results may differ from estimates and the effect of such differences may be material.

Examples of key estimates used to prepare the condensed interim consolidated financial statements include fair value measurements, the determination of triggering events for the impairment of non-financial assets, the measurement of the decommissioning liability, the assessment of expected credit losses, and the determination of the amounts to be recognized for deferred tax assets and liabilities. A full list of the key accounting estimates, and the methodologies and assumptions underlying such estimates, are described in note 4 of the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, a write-down of inventory was recorded to adjust the carrying amount of inventory to net realizable value as discussed in note 4. In addition, in response to the recent decline in economic conditions, Keyera increased its allowance for expected credit losses as discussed in note 11.

4. INVENTORY

The total carrying amount and classification of inventory was as follows:

As at March 31, December 31,
(Thousands of Canadian dollars) 2020 2019
NGLs and iso-octane 46,500 83,334
Other 11,210 10,348
Total inventory 57,710 93,682

For the period ended March 31, 2020, $16,342 of inventory was carried at cost (December 31, 2019 – $93,682) and $41,368 was carried at net realizable value (December 31, 2019 – $nil). For the three months ended March 31, 2020, a write-down of $12,785 was recorded to adjust the carrying amount of inventory to net realizable value (three months ended March 31, 2019 – $nil). The cost of inventory expensed for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $506,138 (three months ended March 31, 2019 – $566,665).

5. PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT

Impairment expense

In the first quarter of 2020, Keyera identified through its impairment review that certain gas plants had carrying values that were greater than their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount for each asset was calculated based on value in use which represents the estimated net present value of the cash flows expected to be derived from the asset, and were nominal in value.

The following impairment expenses with a combined value of $194,001 were recognized in the Gathering and Processing segment during the three months ended March 31, 2020:

Applicable Impairment
value in use expense
(Thousands of Canadian dollars, except rate information) discount rate recognized
Central Foothills Cash-Generating Unit
Ricinus gas plant 13.0% 73,222
West Pembina gas plant 13.0% 52,634
Nordegg River gas plant 13.0% 42,167
Drayton Valley North Cash-Generating Unit
Brazeau North and Pembina North gathering and
processing complex 13.0% 25,978
Total impairment expense recognized
in Gathering and Processing segment 194,001

The impairment expense recorded for the Central Foothills Cash-Generating Unit (“CGU”) is a result of Keyera’s gathering and processing optimization strategy. As part of this optimization strategy, Keyera expects to suspend operations at its Minnehik Buck Lake gas plant in May 2020 and at its West Pembina gas plant in the second half of 2020. The closures of the Ricinus and Nordegg River gas plants are expected to occur in 2021. An impairment expense was not recorded for the Minnehik Buck Lake gas plant as this facility was previously impaired to its salvage value in 2019.

The impairment expense recorded for the Drayton Valley North CGU was a result of underutilization of the Brazeau North and Pembina North gathering and processing complex, including lower producer activity in the capture areas for this complex.

9. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION AND PENSION PLANS

Long-Term Incentive Plan

Keyera has a Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) which compensates officers and key employees by delivering shares of Keyera or paying cash in lieu of shares. Participants in the LTIP are granted rights (“share awards”) to receive shares of Keyera on specified dates in the future. Grants of share awards are authorized by the board of directors. Shares delivered to employees are acquired in the marketplace and not issued from treasury. The acquired shares are placed in a trust account established for the benefit of the participants until the share awards vest.

The LTIP consists of two types of share awards, the Performance Award and the Time Vested (“Restricted”) Award.

The LTIP is accounted for using the liability method and is measured at fair value at each statement of financial position date until the award is settled. The fair value of the liability is measured by applying a fair value pricing model whereby one of the valuation inputs was the March 31, 2020 share price of Keyera, which was $13.08 per share (December 31, 2019 – $34.02 per share).

The compensation cost recorded for the LTIP was:

Restricted Awards (1,236)

Total long-term incentiveplan(recovery) expense (16,927) 5,510

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Keyera maintains an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) whereby eligible employees can purchase common shares of Keyera. Keyera will contribute an amount equal to 5% of the employee’s contribution. To participate in the ESPP, eligible employees select an amount to be deducted from their semi-monthly remuneration. Employees may elect to withhold up to 25% of their base compensation for the stock purchases. The shares of Keyera are acquired on the Toronto Stock Exchange on a semi-monthly basis consistent with the timing of the semi-monthly remuneration. The cost of the shares purchased to match

Keyera Corp. TSX: KEY

2020 First Quarter Report May 12, 2020

5% of the employee’s contribution is expensed as incurred and recorded in general and administrative expenses.

Defined Contribution Pension Plan

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, Keyera made pension contributions of $2,664 (three months ended March 31, 2019 – $2,543) on behalf of its employees. The contributions were recorded in general and administrative expenses.

Deferred Share Unit Plan

Effective January 1, 2016, Keyera implemented a deferred share unit (“DSU”) plan, for non-employee directors. Each DSU vests on the date the grant is awarded but cannot be redeemed until a director ceases to be a member of the board of directors. The grant value is determined based on a 20 day weighted average trading share price. DSUs are settled in cash (on an after-tax basis) based on the 20 day weighted average Keyera share price up to the date of termination. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, Keyera recorded a recovery of $1,376 (three months ended March 31, 2019 – expense of $704) in general and administrative expenses related to the DSU plan.

The following table reconciles the number of DSUs outstanding:

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial instruments include cash, trade and other receivables, derivative financial instruments, bank indebtedness, trade and other payables, dividends payable, current and long-term lease liabilities, credit facilities, current and long-term debt, and certain other long-term liabilities. Derivative financial instruments include foreign exchange contracts, cross-currency swaps, NGLs, crude oil, motor gasoline and natural gas price contracts, electricity price contracts and physical fixed price commodity contracts. Derivative instruments are measured at fair value through profit or loss in the consolidated statements of net earnings and comprehensive income. All other financial instruments are measured at amortized cost.

Financial Instruments

(a) Fair value

Fair value represents Keyera’s estimate of the price at which a financial instrument could be exchanged between knowledgeable and willing parties in an orderly arm’s length transaction motivated by normal business considerations.

Fair value measurement of assets and liabilities recognized on the consolidated statements of financial position are categorized into levels within a fair value hierarchy based on the nature of valuation inputs.

The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

  • Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

  • Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

All of Keyera’s derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 as their fair value is derived by using observable inputs, including commodity price curves, foreign currency curves and credit spreads. For fixed price forward contracts, fair value is derived from observable NGL market prices.

Financial instruments with fair value equal to carrying value

The carrying values of cash, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and dividends payable approximate their fair values because the instruments are either near maturity, have 5 to 30 days payment terms or have no fixed repayment terms. The carrying value of the credit facilities approximates fair value due to their floating rates of interest.

Fair value of senior fixed rate debt

The fair value of long-term debt is based on third-party estimates for similar issues or current rates offered to Keyera for debt of the same maturity. The total fair value of Keyera’s unsecured senior notes and medium-term notes at March 31, 2020 was $2,852,100 (December 31, 2019 – $2,810,100) and this was determined by reference to inputs other than quoted market prices in active markets for identical liabilities under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Risk Management

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial asset or a financial liability will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk is comprised of commodity price risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency risk, as well as credit and liquidity risks.

(b) Commodity price risk

Subsidiaries of Keyera enter into contracts to purchase and sell primarily NGLs and iso-octane, as well as natural gas and crude oil. These contracts are exposed to commodity price risk between the time when contracted volumes are purchased and sold, and foreign currency risk for those sales denominated in U.S. dollars. These risks are actively managed by utilizing physical and financial contracts which include commodity-related forward contracts, price swaps and forward currency contracts. A risk management committee meets regularly to review and assess the risks inherent in existing contracts and the effectiveness of the risk management strategies. This is achieved by modeling future sales and purchase contracts to monitor the sensitivity of changing prices and volumes.

Significant amounts of electricity and natural gas are consumed by certain facilities. In order to mitigate the exposure to fluctuations in the prices of electricity and natural gas, price swap agreements may be used. These agreements are accounted for as derivative instruments.

KEYERA CORP. Notes to unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements

57

Keyera Corp. TSX: KEY

2020 First Quarter Report May 12, 2020

Certain NGL contracts that require physical delivery at fixed prices are accounted for as derivative instruments.

(c) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk arises on financial instruments that are denominated in a foreign currency. Keyera’s foreign currency risk largely arises from the Marketing segment where a significant portion of sales and purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency risk is actively managed by using forward currency contracts and cross-currency swaps. Management monitors the exposure to foreign currency risk and regularly reviews its financial instrument activities and all outstanding positions.

The Gathering and Processing and Liquids Infrastructure segments have very little foreign currency risk as sales and purchases are primarily denominated in Canadian dollars.

Keyera is also exposed to foreign currency risk related to its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt and U.S. dollar denominated LIBOR loans when drawn under Keyera’s bank credit facility. To manage this currency exposure, Keyera has entered into long-term cross-currency swap contracts relating to the principal portion and future interest payments of the U.S. dollar denominated debt as well as short-term cross-currency swaps relating to the LIBOR loans drawn under the credit facility. These cross-currency contracts are accounted for as derivative instruments. Refer to note 12 for a summary of the foreign currency gains (losses) associated with the U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt.

(d) Interest rate risk

The majority of Keyera’s interest rate risk is attributed to its fixed and floating rate debt, which is used to finance capital investments and operations. Keyera’s remaining financial instruments are not significantly exposed to interest rate risk. The floating rate debt creates exposure to interest rate cash flow risk, whereas the fixed rate debt creates exposure to interest rate price risk. As at March 31, 2020, fixed rate borrowings comprised 98% of total debt outstanding (December 31, 2019 – 97%). The fair value of future cash flows for fixed rate debt fluctuates with changes in market interest rates. It is Keyera’s intention to not repay fixed rate debt until maturity and therefore future cash flows would not fluctuate.

(e) Credit risk

The majority of trade and other receivables are due from entities in the oil and gas industry and are subject to normal industry credit risks. Concentration of credit risk is mitigated by having a broad domestic and international customer base. Keyera evaluates and monitors the financial strength of its customers in accordance with its credit policy. Keyera does not typically renegotiate the terms of trade receivables. There were no significant renegotiated balances outstanding at March 31, 2020.

With respect to counterparties for derivative financial instruments, the credit risk is managed through dealing primarily with recognized futures exchanges or investment grade financial institutions and by maintaining credit policies which significantly reduce overall counterparty credit risk. In addition, Keyera incorporates the credit risk associated with counterparty default, as well as Keyera’s own credit risk, into the estimates of fair value.

The allowance for credit losses is reviewed on a monthly basis. An assessment is made whether an account is deemed impaired based on expected credit losses, which includes the number of days outstanding and the likelihood of collection from the counterparty. As a result of the recent decline in economic conditions, during the first quarter of 2020, Keyera increased its allowance for expected credit losses by $2,500. As at March 31, 2020, the total allowance was $4,241 (December 31, 2019 – $1,741). The carrying amount of financial assets on the consolidated statements of financial position approximates Keyera’s maximum exposure to credit risk.

2020 First Quarter Report May 12, 2020

(f) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that suitable sources of funding for Keyera’s business activities may not be available. Keyera manages liquidity risk by maintaining bank credit facilities, continuously managing forecasted and actual cash flows, and monitoring the maturity profiles of financial assets and financial liabilities. Keyera has access to a wide range of funding at competitive rates through capital markets and banks to meet the immediate and ongoing requirements of the business.

Risk Management Sensitivities

The following table summarizes the sensitivity of the fair value of Keyera’s risk management positions to fluctuations in commodity price, interest rate, and foreign currency rate. Fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign currency rates and interest rates could have resulted in unrealized gains (losses) affecting income before tax as follows:
