- Genesis said 2026 Adjusted EBITDA will likely be near or possibly below the low end of its original guidance, with management citing lower offshore volumes and operational delays. In Q&A, the CEO indicated results could be around $570 million.
- Offshore volumes were affected by curtailments and well issues at Shenandoah, plus a Salamanca turnaround; expected new production at both fields has shifted into the first quarter of 2027. Management says minimum volume commitments provide some downside protection and characterizes the delays as timing issues, while acknowledging operators are still working through technical challenges.

The quarterly common distribution is unchanged at $0.20 per unit, up approximately 21% year over year.
