Apple set to dodge bulk of India tariffs
Apple (AAPL) is set to largely escape the Trump administration's upcoming promise of 50% tariff on goods made in India destined for the US. A White House official confirmed Wednesday that Apple's semiconductor-powered devices, which include its iPhone, will be unaffected by Trump's 25% 'reciprocal' tariffs set to go into effect Thursday. The same goes for an upcoming promise of an additional 25% levy related to India's use of Russian oil that is set to be in place in about 3 weeks' time. IPhones and other similar products will be subject to a separate tariff authority which has not yet been unveiled. Apple said during its most recent earnings call that it made the majority of its US-bound iPhones in India. The news comes after The White House announced that Apple will announce an additional $100 billion investment in US manufacturing during a 4:30 pm ET press event Wednesday. That's in addition to the $500 billion Apple said earlier this year it would invest in the country. Trump has criticized Apple's decision to move manufacturing from China to India and not the US, saying during his May trip to the Middle East that he had a 'little problem' with CEO Tim Cook. Other Trump administration officials have also lambasted Apple for not producing its phones in the US, with trade adviser Peter Navarro calling it the 'longest-running soap opera in Silicon Valley,' during a July interview with CNBC. But according to experts, it would take years for Apple to stand up a smartphone supply chain base in the US. What's more, there are no phone manufacturers in the country and not enough workers to fill the necessary roles. Todd Weaver, developer of Purism's Liberty Phone, a privacy-centric smartphone that uses US-built electronics, says it took his company years to set up the facilities and source the necessary components to ensure the phone's processing and communications features all come from America. Even so, he explained, the phone's body is still made overseas. Apple began expanding its supply chain beyond China following the lockdowns and disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. But it started specifically concentrating US iPhone manufacturing in India to avoid Trump's tariffs on Chinese goods. Apple hasn't been entirely immune from the impact of tariffs, though. In Q3, the company said it took an $800 million hit from Trump's levies and it expects an additional $1.1 billion in charges in the fourth quarter. While Apple might be able to dodge tariffs on goods out of India, the company isn't entirely out of the woods. The Trump administration is expected to unveil the results of its Section 232 investigation into semiconductor tariffs, which could impact everything from smartphones to automobiles. The exact timing for the tariff announcement is still up in the air, but Trump has said he could reveal them as soon as next week.

Energy Transfer Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) ('Energy Transfer' or the 'Partnership') today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Energy Transfer reported net income attributable to partners for the three months ended June 30, 2025 of $1.16 billion compared to $1.31 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, net income per common unit (basic) was $0.32. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $3.87 billion compared to $3.76 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $1.96 billion compared to $2.04 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Growth capital expenditures in the second quarter of 2025 were $1.04 billion, while maintenance capital expenditures were $253 million. Operational Highlights Energy Transfer's volumes continued to grow during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. Interstate natural gas transportation volumes were up 11%. Midstream gathered volumes were up 10%, setting a new Partnership record. Crude oil transportation volumes were up 9%, setting a new Partnership record. Intrastate natural gas transportation volumes were up 8%. NGL transportation volumes were up 4%, setting a new Partnership record. NGL and refined products terminal volumes were up 3%, setting a new Partnership record. NGL fractionated volumes were up 5%. NGL exports were up 5%, setting a new Partnership record. In the second quarter of 2025, Energy Transfer placed its 200 MMcf/d Lenorah II Processing plant in the Midland Basin into service; the plant is currently running at full capacity. Energy Transfer recently placed its Nederland Flexport NGL Export Expansion Project into ethane and propane service and expects to begin ethylene service in the fourth quarter of this year. The project is expected to add up to 250,000 Bbls/d of total NGL export capacity at the Partnership's Nederland terminal. Energy Transfer also recently placed the 200 MMcf/d Badger Processing Plant into service. This project involved the relocation of a previously idle plant to the Delaware Basin. Energy Transfer also recently commissioned the second of eight, 10-megawatt natural gas-fired electric generation facilities in West Texas. Two more of these facilities are expected to be placed into service in 2025, with the remainder expected in service in 2026. Strategic Highlights Energy Transfer announced today a 1.5 Bcf/d expansion of its Transwestern Pipeline. Transwestern's Desert Southwest Pipeline expansion will include a 516-mile, 42-inch natural gas pipeline that will connect the Permian Basin with markets in Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, and is expected to be in service by the fourth quarter of 2029. The project is expected to cost approximately $5.3 billion, including $0.6 billion of Allowance for Funds Used During Construction ('AFUDC'), and is supported by significant, long-term commitments with investment grade counterparties. Energy Transfer recently reached FID on Phase II of its Hugh Brinson Pipeline, which will include the addition of compression. Upon completion, this bi-directional pipeline will have the ability to transport approximately 2.2 Bcf/d from west to east and also transport approximately 1 Bcf/d from east to west. Energy Transfer also recently reached FID on the construction of a new storage cavern at its Bethel natural gas storage facility. This project will double Energy Transfer's natural gas working storage capacity at the facility to over 12 Bcf. Southeast Supply Header, LLC recently approved an expansion to its SESH pipeline to serve growing power generation needs. In June 2025, Energy Transfer signed an incremental Sale and Purchase Agreement ('SPA') with Chevron U.S.A. Inc. ('Chevron') for additional LNG supply from its proposed Lake Charles LNG export facility. The 20-year agreement for 1.0 million tonnes per annum ('mtpa') increases Chevron's total contracted volume from Energy Transfer LNG to 3.0 mtpa, following the initial 2.0 mtpa agreement signed in December 2024. In May 2025, Energy Transfer entered into a 20-year LNG SPA with Kyushu Electric Power Company, Inc. related to the Lake Charles LNG project, to supply 1.0 mtpa of LNG. In April 2025, Energy Transfer entered into a Heads of Agreement with MidOcean Energy ('MidOcean') for the joint development of the Lake Charles LNG project, under which MidOcean would commit to fund 30% of the construction costs and be entitled to 30% of the LNG production. Financial Highlights In July 2025, Energy Transfer announced a quarterly cash distribution of $0.33 per common unit ($1.32 annualized) for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, which is an increase of more than 3% compared to the second quarter of 2024. In May 2025, the Partnership redeemed $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Series F Fixed-Rate Reset Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units using cash on hand and commercial paper borrowings. As of June 30, 2025, the Partnership's revolving credit facility had an aggregate $2.51 billion of available borrowing capacity. The Partnership now expects to be at or slightly below the lower end of its previously stated Adjusted EBITDA guidance range of $16.1 billion to $16.5 billion. The Partnership continues to expect its 2025 growth capital expenditures to be approximately $5 billion. Energy Transfer benefits from a portfolio of assets with exceptional product and geographic diversity. The Partnership's multiple segments generate high-quality, balanced earnings with no single business segment contributing more than one-third of the Partnership's consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2025. In addition, Energy Transfer generates approximately 40% of its Adjusted EBITDA from natural gas-related assets. The vast majority of the Partnership's segment margins are fee-based and therefore have limited commodity price sensitivity. Conference call information: The Partnership has scheduled a conference call for 3:30 p.m. Central Time/4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday, August 6, 2025 to discuss its second quarter 2025 results and provide an update on the Partnership. The conference call will be broadcast live via an internet webcast, which can be accessed through and will also be available for replay on the Partnership's website for a limited time.

There are material limitations to using measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, including the difficulty associated with using either as the sole measure to compare the results of one company to another, and the inability to analyze certain significant items that directly affect a company's net income or loss or cash flows. In addition, our calculations of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow may not be consistent with similarly titled measures of other companies and should be viewed in conjunction with measures that are computed in accordance with GAAP, such as operating income, net income and cash flows from operating activities. Definition of Adjusted EBITDA We define Adjusted EBITDA as total partnership earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items, such as non-cash compensation expense, gains and losses on disposals of assets, the allowance for equity funds used during construction, unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities, inventory valuation adjustments, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishments of debt and other non-operating income or expense items. Inventory valuation adjustments that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represent only the changes in lower of cost or market reserves on inventory that is carried at last-in, first-out ('LIFO'). These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to Sunoco LP's fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period. Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for unconsolidated affiliates based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliate as those excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliates. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliates; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliates. The use of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates as an analytical tool should be limited accordingly. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to determine our operating performance and, along with other financial and volumetric data, as internal measures for setting annual operating budgets, assessing financial performance of our numerous business locations, as a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition and as a measurement component of incentive compensation. Definition of Distributable Cash Flow We define Distributable Cash Flow as net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items, less distributions to preferred unitholders and maintenance capital expenditures. Non-cash items include depreciation, depletion and amortization, non-cash compensation expense, amortization included in interest expense, gains and losses on disposals of assets, the allowance for equity funds used during construction, unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities, inventory valuation adjustments, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishments of debt and deferred income taxes. For unconsolidated affiliates, Distributable Cash Flow reflects the Partnership's proportionate share of the investees' distributable cash flow. Distributable Cash Flow is used by management to evaluate our overall performance. Our partnership agreement requires us to distribute all available cash, and Distributable Cash Flow is calculated to evaluate our ability to fund distributions through cash generated by our operations. On a consolidated basis, Distributable Cash Flow includes 100% of the Distributable Cash Flow of Energy Transfer's consolidated subsidiaries. However, to the extent that noncontrolling interests exist among our subsidiaries, the Distributable Cash Flow generated by our subsidiaries may not be available to be distributed to our partners. In order to reflect the cash flows available for distributions to our partners, we have reported Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, which is calculated by adjusting Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated), as follows: For subsidiaries with publicly traded equity interests, Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated) includes 100% of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to such subsidiary, and Distributable Cash Flow attributable to our partners includes distributions to be received by the parent company with respect to the periods presented. For consolidated joint ventures or similar entities, where the noncontrolling interest is not publicly traded, Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated) includes 100% of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to such subsidiaries, but Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners reflects only the amount of Distributable Cash Flow of such subsidiaries that is attributable to our ownership interest. For Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, certain transaction-related adjustments and non-recurring expenses that are included in net income are excluded. (b) These amounts exclude Sunoco LP's Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow related to its investment in the ET-S Permian and J.C. Nolan joint ventures, which amounts are eliminated in the Energy Transfer consolidation. (c) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the amount reflected for transaction-related income taxes reflects current income tax expense recognized by Sunoco LP in connection with its April 2024 sale of convenience stores in West Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Expand The following analysis of segment operating results includes a measure of segment margin. Segment margin is a non-GAAP financial measure and is presented herein to assist in the analysis of segment operating results and particularly to facilitate an understanding of the impacts that changes in sales revenues have on the segment performance measure of Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Segment margin is similar to the GAAP measure of gross margin, except that segment margin excludes charges for depreciation, depletion and amortization. Among the GAAP measures reported by the Partnership, the most directly comparable measure to segment margin is Segment Adjusted EBITDA; a reconciliation of segment margin to Segment Adjusted EBITDA is included in the following tables for each segment where segment margin is presented. Transported volumes of gas on our Texas intrastate pipelines increased primarily due to more third-party transportation. Transported volumes reported above exclude volumes attributable to purchases and sales of gas for our pipelines' own accounts and the optimization of any unused capacity. Segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, Segment Adjusted EBITDA related to our intrastate transportation and storage segment decreased due to the net impact of the following: a decrease of $45 million in realized natural gas sales and other primarily due to lower optimization volumes with shifts to long-term third-party contracts from the Permian and narrower price spreads; a decrease of $11 million in transportation fees primarily due to the recovery in the prior period of certain disputed fees on our Texas system; and a decrease of $2 million in storage margin primarily due to lower storage optimization; partially offset by a decrease of $5 million in operating expenses primarily due to a decrease in maintenance projects costs; and an increase of $4 million in retained fuel margin primarily due to higher gas prices. Transported volumes increased primarily due to more capacity sold and higher utilization on several of our major pipeline systems due to increased demand. Segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, Segment Adjusted EBITDA related to our interstate transportation and storage segment increased due to the net impact of the following: an increase of $70 million in segment margin primarily due to a $35 million negative impact in the prior period related to the conclusion of a rate case on our Panhandle system, a $33 million increase in transportation revenue from several of our interstate pipeline systems due to higher contracted volumes and a $4 million increase due to higher storage and liquids revenue; and an increase of $12 million in Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates due to a $6 million increase from our Citrus joint venture, a $4 million increase from our Midcontinent Express Pipeline joint venture and a $2 million increase from our Southeast Supply Header pipeline joint venture; partially offset by an increase of $11 million in operating expenses primarily due to an increase in volume-driven expenses. Gathered volumes increased primarily due to newly acquired assets, as well as additional and upgraded plants in the Permian region, partially offset by lower dry gas gathering in the Northeast and Ark-La-Tex regions. NGL production increased primarily due to recently acquired assets and increased Permian plant utilization. Segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, Segment Adjusted EBITDA related to our midstream segment increased due to the net impact of the following: an increase of $176 million in segment margin primarily due to recently acquired assets and higher volumes in the Permian region; and an increase of $11 million in segment margin due to higher natural gas prices of $38 million, partially offset by lower NGL prices of $27 million; partially offset by a decrease of $13 million in segment margin due to lower dry gas volumes in the Northeast and Ark-La-Tex regions; an increase of $95 million in operating expenses primarily due to recently acquired assets and assets placed in service as well as higher employee costs; and an increase of $4 million in selling, general and administrative expenses due to an adjustment to the workers' compensation reserve in the prior period and higher corporate allocations. NGL transportation volumes increased primarily due to higher volumes from the Permian region. The increase in transportation volumes also led to higher fractionated volumes at our Mont Belvieu NGL Complex. Segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, Segment Adjusted EBITDA related to our NGL and refined products transportation and services segment decreased due to the net impact of the following: a decrease of $78 million in marketing margin (excluding unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities) primarily due to lower gains from the optimization of hedged NGL and refined product inventories; and an increase of $7 million in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to increased costs from recently acquired assets; partially offset by an increase of $33 million in transportation margin primarily due to higher throughput and contractual rate escalations on our Mariner East and our Gulf Coast pipeline systems; and an increase of $12 million in fractionators and refinery services margin primarily due to higher throughput. Crude oil transportation volumes were higher due to continued growth on our gathering systems and from assets contributed upon the recent formation of the ET-S Permian joint venture with Sunoco LP, partially offset by lower volumes on our Bakken Pipeline. Crude terminal volumes were lower primarily due to lower volumes received from our Bakken Pipeline system. Segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, Segment Adjusted EBITDA related to our crude oil transportation and services segment decreased due to the net impact of the following: a decrease of $46 million in segment margin (excluding unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities) due to decreased transportation revenue, primarily from our Bakken Pipeline system, partially offset by increases from assets contributed upon the formation of the ET-S Permian joint venture; an increase of $21 million in operating expenses primarily due to a $10 million increase from assets contributed upon the formation of the ET-S Permian joint venture, a $6 million increase in employee costs and a $5 million increase in expense projects; and an increase of $2 million in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to costs associated with the ET-S Permian joint venture. The investment in Sunoco LP segment reflects the consolidated results of Sunoco LP. Segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, Segment Adjusted EBITDA related to our investment in Sunoco LP segment increased due to the net impact of the following: an increase of $12 million in segment margin (excluding unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities and inventory valuation adjustments) primarily due to the acquisition of NuStar, which was acquired in May 2024 and therefore is only reflected for two months in the prior period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $50 million from Sunoco LP's deconsolidation of certain of NuStar's assets in connection with the formation of ET-S Permian effective July 1, 2024, as well as a $29 million decrease in fuel profit due to lower profit per gallon; an increase of $48 million in Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates due to the formation of ET-S Permian; and a decrease of $85 million in selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding non-cash compensation expense, primarily related to one-time NuStar acquisition costs in 2024; partially offset by an increase of $13 million in operating expenses due to increased costs from the acquisition of NuStar, which was acquired in May 2024 and therefore is only reflected for two months in the prior period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $6 million from Sunoco LP's deconsolidation of certain of NuStar's assets in connection with the formation of ET-S Permian effective July 1, 2024. The investment in USAC segment reflects the consolidated results of USAC. Segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period last year, Segment Adjusted EBITDA related to our investment in USAC segment increased due to the net impact of the following: an increase of $10 million in segment margin primarily due to higher revenue-generating horsepower as a result of increased demand for compression services and higher market-based rates on newly deployed and redeployed compression units; partially offset by an increase of $4 million in operating expenses primarily due to an increase in employee costs associated with increased revenue-generating horsepower. Segment Adjusted EBITDA.
