Corporate Profile
South Bow Overview
South Bow is an energy infrastructure company that owns and operates critical liquids pipelines and facilities extending across Canada and the U.S., safely and reliably connecting robust crude oil supplies to key refining and demand markets in the U.S. Midwest and U.S. Gulf Coast. South Bow seeks to optimize its assets, invest strategically to sustainably grow its cash flows, and pay a meaningful dividend, if, as, and when declared by South Bow's board of directors (the "Board"). The majority of South Bow's revenues are generated through long-term committed transportation arrangements, whereby customers receive liquids transportation or storage services in exchange for a committed monthly payment.
South Bow takes a disciplined approach to capital allocation to preserve optionality and maximize total shareholder returns over the long term. The Company's capital allocation priorities are built on a foundation of financial strength and are supported by South Bow's stable, predictable cash flows. South Bow's capital allocation priorities include: paying a sustainable base dividend; strengthening the Company's investment-grade financial position; and leveraging existing infrastructure within South Bow's strategic corridor to offer customers competitive connections, enhanced optionality, and value chain extensions.
South Bow has three reportable segments: Keystone Pipeline System, Marketing, and Intra-Alberta & Other.
In 2024, the Company completed the spinoff from TC Energy Corporation (the "Former Parent") to form South Bow as a publicly traded company (the "Spinoff").

Change in Income before Income Taxes and Normalized EBITDA
(Three Months Ended September 30, 2026)
chart-710444bb34dc4b8c82ba.jpg    chart-6e6168a5ae84417aa21a.jpg
Income before income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2026 increased slightly to $108 million from $104 million in the same period of 2025, attributable to higher contributions from the Intra-Alberta & Other segment, partially offset by lower contributions from the Marketing segment.
South Bow's normalized EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2026 decreased slightly to $248 million from $254 million in the same period of 2025, primarily driven by decreases in the Keystone Pipeline System, partially offset by increases in the Marketing and Intra-Alberta & Other segments.

Income before income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased to $382 million from $344 million in the same period of 2025 due to increased contributions from the Keystone Pipeline System and Intra-Alberta & Other segments, partially offset by a decrease in income before income taxes for the Marketing segment.
Normalized EBITDA of $785 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased from normalized EBITDA of $770 million for the comparative 2025 period due to increases in the Marketing and Intra-Alberta & Other segments, partially offset by lower normalized EBITDA for the Keystone Pipeline System segment.

South Bow generated revenues of $503 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $461 million in the same period of 2025, primarily as a result of higher revenue contributions from the Keystone Pipeline System segment. Higher Keystone Pipeline System revenues primarily reflected the net $43 million charge recorded against revenue in the third quarter of 2025 related to the Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes. This was partially offset by lower Marketlink revenue contributions due to lower contracted and uncommitted volumes in the third quarter of 2026 compared to 2025.
The Company’s Marketing and Intra-Alberta & Other segments further contributed to higher revenue contributions during the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. Refer to the Segment Results section of this MD&A for additional details.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, South Bow generated revenues of $1,540 million compared to $1,483 million in the same period of 2025, driven by higher revenues in the Keystone Pipeline System and the Intra-Alberta & Other segments, partially offset by lower revenues in the Marketing segment.
The Company’s Keystone Pipeline System segment generated higher revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the net $43 million charge recorded against revenue in the prior year period related to the Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, higher revenues were also driven by increased uncommitted volumes resulting from higher demand to move oil towards the U.S. Gulf Coast and prior-period toll adjustments, partially offset by reduced contributions from the Marketlink pipeline attributable to lower throughput and tighter pricing differentials.
Income from equity investments was relatively unchanged during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 relative to the comparable periods in 2025 due to the long-term nature of the committed contracts associated with the Company's equity investments.

Plant operating costs and other
Plant operating costs and other increased during the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the 2025 period, primarily due to an increase in integrity-related activities and operations programs on the Keystone Pipeline System.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 4


Plant operating costs and other increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, driven by higher integrity-related activities on the Keystone Pipeline System and higher share-based compensation expense resulting from an increase in the Company’s share price. These increases were partially offset by lower costs from optimization initiatives, lower power prices, and the absence of separation costs in the 2026 period. South Bow also incurred costs associated with initial business development activities related to the proposed Prairie Connector project. Refer to the Recent Developments section of this MD&A for additional details.
Commodity purchases resold
Commodity purchases resold increased during the three months ended September 30, 2026 due to higher commodity prices relative to the comparative period in 2025, partially offset by lower third-party transportation costs.
Commodity purchases resold decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 relative to the comparative period in 2025, due to lower quantities purchased and third-party transportation costs, partially offset by higher commodity prices.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization remained relatively consistent during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 relative to the comparable periods in 2025.
Other expenses
Other expenses decreased in the 2026 periods due to a $4 million gain recognized on provision adjustments related to the Company’s long-term monitoring and close-out obligations for the historical Keystone XL project. During the comparative 2025 periods, South Bow recorded other expenses related to the write-off of amounts relating to its Keystone XL contractual recoveries.
Net Income and Normalized Net Income
chart-e40453d21c724807af7a.jpg
South Bow recognized net income and normalized net income of $99 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to net income and normalized net income of $93 million and $99 million, respectively, during the comparative period of 2025.
The increase in net income during the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 was primarily attributable to lower income taxes due to favourable adjustments, and the lower loss before income taxes for the Intra-Alberta & Other segment discussed in the Segment Results section of this MD&A.
Normalized net income for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was consistent with the same period in 2025.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized net income and normalized net income of $310 million and $295 million, respectively, compared to net income and normalized net income of $277 million and $284 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 5


The increase in net income during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 relative to the comparative period in 2025 was due to increases in income before income taxes discussed above, partially offset by a modest increase in income tax expense.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, normalized net income increased relative to the comparative period in 2025 due to higher normalized EBITDA, partially offset by a modest increase in income tax expense.
Normalized net income was $0.47 per share (diluted) in the third quarter of 2026 and 2025.
Distributable Cash Flow
chart-8e2622c2cdbe4a7f88ea.jpg
Distributable cash flow generated during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 decreased to $187 million and $530 million, respectively, from $236 million and $560 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
The decrease in distributable cash flow for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily driven by lower current income tax recoveries in the third quarter of 2026, partially offset by higher income before income taxes and higher distributions from equity investments.
The decrease in distributable cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily driven by a current income tax expense position in 2026, compared to a current income tax recovery position in the 2025 period, and lower distributions from equity investments, partially offset by higher income before taxes.
Total Long-term Debt and Net Debt
chart-a23b0bb239d04721920a.jpg
1. Total long-term debt includes the current and long-term portion of the Company's Senior Notes and Junior Notes. Refer to the Long-term Debt, including Credit Facilities section of this MD&A for additional details.
2. Net debt includes 50 per cent equity treatment of the Company's Junior Notes. Refer to the Specified Financial Measures section of this MD&A for additional details on composition of net debt.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 6


The Company's total long-term debt of $5.4 billion at September 30, 2026 decreased from December 31, 2025 as the Company repurchased and extinguished $320 million aggregate principal amount of its U.S. dollar-denominated Senior Notes during the third quarter of 2026. Net debt at September 30, 2026 was $4.4 billion, a decrease from December 31, 2025, driven by lower total debt and a modest increase in cash balances at September 30, 2026 relative to December 31, 2025. The Company's nearest-term debt maturity is in September 2027. Refer to the Long-Term Debt, including Credit Facilities section of this MD&A for additional details on the Company's debt and capital structure.
South Bow continued to advance its deleveraging priority, reducing the Company’s net debt-to-normalized EBITDA ratio from 4.7 times at December 31, 2025 to 4.3 times at September 30, 2026, due to lower net debt described above and a higher trailing-four quarter normalized EBITDA relative to the comparative period.

Keystone Pipeline System revenues increased during the three months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the 2025 period, primarily due to the net $43 million charge recorded against revenue in the comparative 2025 period related to the Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes, which was partially offset by lower Marketlink contracted and uncommitted volumes in the third quarter of 2026 compared to 2025.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Keystone Pipeline System recognized higher revenues than in the comparative period, primarily due to increased demand for uncommitted capacity on the Keystone Pipeline, partially offset by lower contracted throughput on Marketlink. Revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 included $18 million related to historical variable toll adjustments recorded during the first quarter of 2026 and revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 included a $43 million charge relating to the Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes.
Income before income taxes remained consistent during the three months ended September 30, 2026 relative to the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Income before income taxes increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the prior year primarily due to higher revenues as discussed above and a gain on reduction in the provisions related to the long-term monitoring and close-out obligations of the historical Keystone XL project. This was partially offset by higher operating costs in the third quarter of 2026 and decreased revenue contributions from the Marketlink pipeline. The increase was also impacted by $20 million of other income recorded in the third quarter of 2025 related to separation terms with the Former Parent.
Normalized EBITDA decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2026, driven by decreased revenue contributions in the third quarter of 2026 and increased operating costs on the Marketlink pipeline compared to the 2025 period.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 7


Normalized EBITDA remained relatively consistent during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the 2025 period.
Total capital expenditures invested in the Keystone Pipeline System segment during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 decreased from 2025. Investments during the 2026 periods include $5 million in land purchases in the second quarter of 2026 and lower planned maintenance capital expenditures following an active maintenance and integrity program in 2025. Refer to the Capital Program and Outlook and Guidance sections of this MD&A for additional details on South Bow's capital expenditures and outlook for 2026.
The Keystone Pipeline System SOF increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, reflecting lower scheduled maintenance activities relative to the comparative 2025 periods.

Revenues for the Marketing segment increased during the third quarter of 2026 compared to the same period of 2025, primarily driven by higher margins on physical volumes and lower realized losses on risk management contracts in 2026 compared to 2025. These increases were partially offset by unrealized losses on risk management contracts in 2026 compared to unrealized gains in the comparative period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, revenues decreased compared to the same period in 2025 due to realized losses on risk management contracts in 2026 compared to realized gains in the comparative period, and unrealized losses on risk management contracts compared to unrealized gains in 2025. These decreases were partially offset by higher sales prices on physical volumes.
The decrease in the Marketing segment's income before income taxes during the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the same period of 2025, was primarily driven by higher costs to purchase and market crude oil, partially offset by the increase in revenues discussed above. The decrease in the Marketing segment's income before income taxes during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 was due to lower revenues discussed above, partially offset by lower costs to purchase and market crude oil.
The increase in normalized EBITDA for the Marketing segment during the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to 2025 was a result of higher physical volumes sold at higher average sales prices, partially offset by higher costs to purchase and market crude oil. Normalized EBITDA for the Marketing segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased compared to 2025, driven by higher sales prices on physical volumes, and lower costs to purchase and market crude oil. The increases were partially offset by higher realized losses on risk management contracts in 2026 relative to the comparative period.

The Intra-Alberta & Other segment's loss before income taxes decreased during the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the $5 million gain on debt extinguishment and higher interest income, partially offset by lower capitalized interest. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Intra-Alberta & Other segment's loss before income taxes decreased due to revenue contributions from the Blackrod Connection Project, which was placed into commercial service in the first quarter of 2026. The gain on debt extinguishment and higher interest income also contributed to the lower year-over-year loss, partially offset by lower capitalized interest relating to the Blackrod Connection Project.
Normalized EBITDA for the Intra-Alberta & Other segment increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, primarily as a result of revenues from the Blackrod Connection Project.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, total capital expenditures included investments of $11 million and $21 million, respectively, for the Blackrod Connection Project and the Prairie Connector project (refer to Recent Developments section of this MD&A). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, South Bow invested $18 million and $92 million, respectively, in the Blackrod Connection Project, in addition to corporate infrastructure investments to support the Spinoff. Refer to the Outlook and Guidance and Capital Program section of this MD&A for information on the Company's capital expenditures and 2026 outlook.
Recent Developments
Growth Initiatives
South Bow continues to advance its growth initiatives with its proposed Prairie Connector project and the joint development of the proposed Liberty Bridge Pipeline project with Bridger Pipeline LLC ("Bridger").
In the second quarter of 2026, South Bow announced the successful outcome of its open season, securing 20-year binding commitments for firm transportation service from Hardisty, Alberta to U.S. delivery points, for a total of 465,000 barrels per day from nine customers. The successful open season represents a significant commercial milestone and supports the continued advancement of the project toward a targeted final investment decision ("FID") in mid-2027. Key activities underway include advancing permitting and regulatory approvals, land acquisitions, pursuing government assurances related to permit durability, progressing execution planning, refining cost estimates, engaging with communities, landowners, Indigenous and Tribal Nations, and other stakeholders, and evaluating financing alternatives. The timing and magnitude of future expenditures will depend on the achievement of project milestones, regulatory approvals, commercial arrangements, and other factors. To support pre-FID spending associated with these projects, the Company has entered into development cost-sharing agreements with its open season customers.
The proposed Prairie Connector project would extend from Hardisty, Alberta, to the Canada-U.S. border, where it would connect to Bridger's downstream facilities. The 530-kilometre Prairie Connector project includes the construction of approximately 380 kilometres of new 36-inch pipeline and associated facilities, as well as leveraging approximately 150 kilometres of previously installed and preserved 36-inch pipeline and two pump stations.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 9


The proposed Liberty Bridge Pipeline project is being jointly advanced by South Bow and Bridger, which if sanctioned, would extend from Guernsey, Wyoming to Cushing, Oklahoma where it would connect to the U.S. Gulf Coast segment of the Keystone Pipeline System and other downstream facilities.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company incurred $17 million related to the Prairie Connector project, of which $12 million has been capitalized and included in plant, property and equipment, and $5 million for preliminary project costs recognized in the first quarter of 2026. Capitalized costs primarily relate to engineering, regulatory, commercial, and other development activities that Management determined were directly attributable to the development and construction of the proposed project. Refer to the Outlook and Guidance section of this MD&A for additional details on South Bow's growth capital expenditures for 2026.
Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes
Effective September 30, 2025, South Bow and associated parties agreed to withdraw all complaints and protests associated with the variable toll disputes previously filed with the Canada Energy Regulator ("CER"), Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC"), Court of King's Bench of Alberta, and D.C. Circuit Court (collectively, the "Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes"). Pursuant to an associated partial release of indemnification agreement and the Separation Agreement, the Former Parent was obligated to indemnify South Bow for certain amounts agreed to under the Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company made $8 million in payments relating to indemnified liabilities and $6 million related to non-indemnified liabilities associated with the Withdrawal of Keystone Variable Toll Disputes. As a result of these payments, the Company has reached the maximum liability under the Separation Agreement (refer to Note 5, Spinoff Transaction for additional details). As at September 30, 2026, the Company has additional liabilities of $22 million, discounted at the Company's credit-adjusted rate, that are not subject to indemnification terms, due in the third quarter of each of the next four years.
CER Ruling
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the CER approved the Company's application for collection of the final adjusted variable tolls for the 2020 to 2024 period. As a result of the approval of the final tolls, South Bow is no longer subject to interim tolling and, as of March 31, 2026, had collected the final adjusted variable tolls for the 2020 to 2024 period from its Keystone Pipeline Canada customers. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded $1 million of interest income relating to the final tolls.
Milepost 171 Incident
On April 8, 2025, the Company responded to an oil release of approximately 3,500 barrels at Milepost 171 ("MP-171") on the Keystone Pipeline, near Fort Ransom, North Dakota. On April 11, 2025, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration ("PHMSA") issued a Corrective Action Order ("CAO"), requiring South Bow to undertake certain corrective actions in response to the MP-171 incident, including the completion of an independent third-party root cause analysis ("RCA") along with mechanical and metallurgical testing. On April 15, 2025, South Bow safely restarted the Keystone Pipeline under certain operating pressure restrictions after receiving regulatory approval from PHMSA. In early June 2025, South Bow completed the cleanup and reclamation of the incident site.
Findings and recommendations from the independent third-party RCA were released by PHMSA on February 11, 2026 and have been incorporated into South Bow's remedial work plan. The Company continues to advance remedial actions through its operations programs and continues to be able to meet all contractual transportation services while operating under the CAO.
During the third quarter of 2026, PHMSA approved South Bow's remedial work plan. Following internal engineering reviews, South Bow began lifting pressure restrictions on certain segments of the Keystone Pipeline.

In December 2022, the Milepost 14 ("MP-14") incident occurred on the Keystone Pipeline in Washington County, Kansas. As a result of the incident, the Company was subject to an Amended Corrective Action Order ("ACAO") issued by PHMSA. By June 2023, the recovery of all released volumes was completed, and by October 2023, creek restoration was finished, returning natural flows to Mill Creek. In January 2025, the Company received PHMSA's approval of its remedial work plan. This approval culminated the completion of 2,145 miles of in-line inspections across the Keystone Pipeline System and 68 investigative digs over a two-year period. In March 2025, South Bow received approval from PHMSA to lift the pressure restriction on the affected segment to 72 per cent of the specified minimum yield strength of the pipeline.
The remaining balance related to ongoing long-term monitoring reflected in accounts payable and other and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets was $1 million and $1 million, respectively, at September 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 – $3 million and $7 million, respectively).
In July 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice, on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the State of Kansas, announced a Clean Water Act consent decree with South Bow related to the MP-14 incident. Under the proposed consent decree, South Bow agreed to pay a total of $30 million in fines and penalties and perform pipeline integrity and other preventative measures on the Keystone Pipeline. The Company has recorded a payable for amounts under the consent decree and a corresponding receivable from the Former Parent pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the Separation Agreement. South Bow has reached the maximum liability under the Separation Agreement (refer to Note 5, Spinoff Transaction of the Company’s accompanying financial statements for additional details).
Outlook and Guidance
Market Outlook
Recent geopolitical events have caused significant market volatility, underscoring the importance of a secure and reliable North American energy supply. In this environment, South Bow's strategically positioned infrastructure continues to play an important role in connecting growing Western Canadian crude oil supply to key refining and export markets.
South Bow expects Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin ("WCSB") crude oil supply to remain below total pipeline egress capacity in the near term, with supply growth anticipated to outpace incremental egress additions in 2027. This shift is expected to support wider pricing differentials and increased demand for uncommitted capacity on the Keystone Pipeline.
Crude oil inventories in Cushing, Oklahoma remain low, contributing to relatively tight pricing differentials to the U.S. Gulf Coast. These market conditions are expected to remain volatile through 2027, potentially tempering demand for uncommitted capacity on the U.S. Gulf Coast segment of the Keystone Pipeline System.
Guidance
South Bow's annual guidance aims to inform readers about Management's expectations for 2026 and 2027 financial and operational results. Readers are cautioned that these estimates may not be suitable for any other purpose. Refer to the Forward-Looking Information section of this MD&A for additional information regarding the material factors or assumptions used to develop South Bow's guidance and the material factors that could cause actual events and results to be significantly different from those anticipated.
2026 Guidance
South Bow is reaffirming its 2026 normalized EBITDA guidance of $1,040 million, within a range of two per cent at the upper end and one per cent at the lower end.
South Bow is increasing its 2026 distributable cash flow guidance by four per cent to $690 million, within a range of two per cent, reflecting lower-than-expected current income taxes.
All other 2026 guidance items remain unchanged. South Bow's 2026 annual guidance is outlined below:

7. Maintenance capital expenditures are generally recoverable through South Bow's tolling arrangements.
2027 Guidance
South Bow's financial outlook for 2027 is underpinned by the Company's highly contracted cash flows and structural demand for services. Normalized EBITDA is projected to be approximately $1,070 million, within a range of two per cent, including increased contributions from the Blackrod Connection Project. The range primarily reflects variability in pricing differentials and the associated demand for uncommitted capacity on South Bow's pipeline systems, with tighter differentials contributing to the lower end of the range and wider differentials supporting the higher end. The majority of South Bow's normalized EBITDA is secured through committed arrangements that carry minimal commodity price or volumetric risk.
South Bow anticipates that its 2027 financial charges will be approximately $300 million, within a range of two per cent. The Company's effective tax rate is expected to range from 22 per cent to 23 per cent.
Distributable cash flow is expected to be approximately $630 million, within a range of four per cent, primarily reflecting higher expected current income taxes relative to 2026.
South Bow plans to invest approximately $65 million in pre-FID development activities associated with the proposed Prairie Connector and Liberty Bridge Pipeline projects in 2027. The Company will evaluate accelerating certain pre-FID development spending as greater regulatory certainty and permit durability are achieved.
2027 maintenance capital expenditures are estimated to be approximately $40 million, within a range of $10 million, reflecting increased maintenance activity relative to 2026, including planned investments in operational systems and infrastructure. These expenditures are generally recoverable through South Bow's tolling arrangements.
South Bow expects its net debt-to-normalized EBITDA ratio to decline modestly through 2027, reflecting continued progress on the Company's deleveraging priority.

Total capital expenditures were $13 million and $34 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $39 million and $146 million in the respective 2025 comparative periods.
Growth capital expenditures were lower during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025, due to the Blackrod Connection Project being designated commercially in-service in March 2026. Growth capital investments in 2026 included the Blackrod Connection Project, land purchases, and the Prairie Connector project (refer to Recent Developments section of this MD&A for additional details).
Maintenance capital expenditures include investments to support the Company's operations and key infrastructure. Lower maintenance capital expenditures during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025 primarily reflected one-time investments made in 2025 to support the Spinoff, including information systems and leasehold improvements, as well as lower spending on the Keystone Pipeline System in 2026.
Separation capital expenditures during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 related to one-time investments to support the Spinoff transition, including information system infrastructure.
Blackrod Connection Project
Supported by long-term committed contracts, South Bow's first major growth initiative, the Blackrod Connection Project, consists of a 25-km (16-mi) crude oil pipeline and a 25-km (16-mi) natural gas lateral, as well as associated facilities, providing crude oil transportation from International Petroleum Corporation's Blackrod Project to South Bow's Grand Rapids Pipeline in intra-Alberta.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 13


The project was designated commercially in-service in March 2026, completed on time and on budget, with zero safety incidents. Associated cash flows from the project are expected to increase throughout the remainder of 2026 and into 2027.

At September 30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents were $564 million (September 30, 2025 - $501 million).
Operating Activities
Cash from operating activities is primarily impacted by changes in operations, fluctuations in demand for uncommitted capacity, commodity prices, changes in cost environment, and timing of cash receipts and payments made. The increase in cash from operating activities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025 was primarily attributable to higher net income and an increase in non-cash working capital.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities is primarily related to maintenance and growth capital expenditures. Cash used in investing activities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was attributable to the Company's cash capital investments of $18 million and $63 million, respectively, compared to cash capital investments of $52 million and $118 million, respectively, in the comparative period of 2025. The decreases were primarily driven by the Company investing in its Blackrod Connection Project in 2025 which was designated as commercially in-service in March 2026.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities primarily relates to dividends paid, debt financing transactions, and share capital transactions. During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company allocated $104 million for dividends and repurchased and extinguished debt for $314 million. This was partially offset by $2 million in cash received from option exercises compared to $1 million in cash received from option exercises during the three months ended September 30, 2025.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company allocated $312 million for dividends and repurchased and extinguished debt for $314 million. This was partially offset by $9 million in cash received from option exercises compared to $5 million in cash received from option exercises during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Long-Term Debt, including Credit Facilities
Long-Term Debt
South Bow’s long-term debt is comprised of U.S. and Canadian dollar-denominated Senior Notes (collectively, the "Senior Notes") and U.S. dollar-denominated Junior Notes ("Junior Notes"). Interest rates are fixed on the Senior Notes and Junior Notes, subject to reset at regular intervals for the Junior Notes, and interest is paid semi-annually.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company repurchased and extinguished $320 million aggregate principal amount of its U.S. dollar-denominated Senior Notes for cash consideration of $314 million, resulting in a $5 million gain on extinguishment, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, recorded in interest income and other in the consolidated statements of income.

Credit Facilities
At September 30, 2026, $1.4 billion (C$2.0 billion) was available and nil was drawn on the Company's four-year, senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Facility"), which matures on October 1, 2029. The Company is required to maintain approximately $352 million (C$500 million) of availability under the Facility for financial resource commitments under the Canadian Energy Regulator Act.
South Bow is subject to certain financial covenants on its Facility and was in compliance with its covenants as at September 30, 2026.

2. For purposes of calculating the net debt-to-normalized EBITDA ratio, normalized EBITDA is calculated using the trailing four quarters of normalized EBITDA from the relevant period end.
A significant portion of South Bow's revenues are from long-term committed contracts. The Company has no material restrictions on its cash and cash equivalents and has no amounts drawn on the Facility, with its nearest long-term debt maturity in 2027. South Bow is well positioned to meet its operating obligations, including quarterly dividend payments, if, as, and when declared by the Board, by utilizing its cash flow from operating activities and available borrowing capacity if, and as, required.
Maintaining a strong balance sheet and financial flexibility is fundamental to South Bow's strategy. At September 30, 2026, the Company's net debt-to-normalized EBITDA ratio was 4.3 times. The Company is committed to prudently managing leverage and expects to enhance its financial resilience, reduce debt service charges, and create additional capacity to fund future growth initiatives and potentially grow shareholder returns.
Share Capital
The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares and a number of first and second preferred shares, up to 20 per cent of the number of issued common shares outstanding. As at the date of this MD&A, no first or second preferred shares have been issued.

Any changes to projects, including timing or possible cancellation, could change these estimates.
Guarantees
The Company has guaranteed the Senior Notes and Junior Notes issued by certain subsidiaries. Refer to the Parental Guarantees of Debt section of this MD&A for additional details.
South Bow and its partners in certain jointly owned entities have guaranteed the financial performance of these jointly owned entities to a maximum term to 2043. At September 30, 2026, the Company's share of maximum potential exposure under the guarantees is C$56 million (December 31, 2025 - C$56 million). Under these guarantees, if the Company makes a payment that exceeds its share of ownership interest, the additional amount must be reimbursed by the partners of such jointly owned entities.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
Except for the guarantees discussed above, as at September 30, 2026, South Bow does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the Company's financial performance or financial condition.
Specified Financial Measures
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Throughout this MD&A, South Bow references certain non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios which do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. These non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios include adjustments to the composition of the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Management considers these non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios to be important in evaluating and understanding the operating performance and liquidity of South Bow. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information or measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
South Bow's non-GAAP financial measures presented in this MD&A include normalized EBITDA, segment normalized EBITDA, normalized net income, distributable cash flow, and net debt. Non-GAAP ratios include normalized net income per share and net debt-to-normalized EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios are further described with a reconciliation to their most directly comparable GAAP measure below.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 18


Normalizing Items
Normalized measures are (or include) non-GAAP financial measures and include normalized EBITDA, segment normalized EBITDA, normalized net income, normalized net income per share, distributable cash flow, and net debt-to-normalized EBITDA. Management uses these normalized measures as a way to assess the financial performance of South Bow's operations and compare period-over-period results. During certain reporting periods, the Company may incur costs which are not indicative of core operations or results. These normalized measures represent income (loss) adjusted for specific normalizing items that are believed to be significant; however, are not reflective of South Bow's underlying operations in the period.
These specific normalizing items include gains or losses on sales of assets or assets held for sale, unrealized fair value adjustments related to risk management activities, tariff charges, separation, acquisition, integration, and restructuring costs, and other charges, including but not limited to, impairment, contractual costs, preliminary costs associated with major business development activities (referred to as “Business Development Projects”), and settlements.
South Bow excludes the unrealized fair value adjustments related to risk management activities as these represent the changes in the fair value of derivatives, but do not accurately reflect the gains and losses that will be realized at settlement and impact income. Therefore, the Company does not consider these items reflective of its underlying operations, despite providing effective economic hedges. Realized gains and losses on grade financial contracts are adjusted to improve comparability as they settle in a subsequent period to the underlying transaction they are hedged against.
South Bow excludes tariff charges as they are not reflective of ongoing business conducted by the Company and are subject to uncertainty.
Separation costs relate to internal costs and external fees incurred specific to the Spinoff. These items have been excluded from normalized measures as Management does not consider them reflective of ongoing operations and they are non-recurring in nature.
Business development projects represent initial expenditures incurred by the Company for the evaluation of future growth projects. These costs have been excluded from normalized measures, as Management does not consider them reflective of ongoing operations conducted by the Company.
Gains on the extinguishment of debt have been excluded from normalized measures as Management does not consider them reflective of ongoing operations and they are non-recurring in nature.
Normalized EBITDA and Segment Normalized EBITDA
Normalized EBITDA is a measure indicative of earnings from ongoing operations. Management uses this measure to monitor and evaluate the financial performance of the Company's operations and to identify and evaluate trends. This measure is useful for investors as Management believes it allows for a more accurate comparison of financial performance of the Company across periods for ongoing operations. Normalized EBITDA represents income (loss) before income taxes adjusted for the normalizing items including gains or losses on sales of assets or assets held for sale, unrealized fair value adjustments related to risk management activities, tariff charges, separation, acquisition, integration, and restructuring costs, and other charges, including but not limited to, impairment, contractual costs, preliminary costs associated with major business development projects, and settlements, in addition to excluding charges for depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income and other, and other income.
Normalized EBITDA guidance is a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. South Bow does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP due to unknown variables and the uncertainty related to future results. These unknown variables may be inherently difficult to determine without unreasonable efforts. Guidance for normalized EBITDA is calculated in the same manner as described above for historical normalized EBITDA, as applicable.

Normalized Net Income and Normalized Net Income per Share
Normalized net income represents net income adjusted for the normalizing items described above and is used by Management to assess the earnings that it believes are representative of South Bow's operations. By adjusting for non-recurring items and other factors that do not reflect the Company's ongoing performance, the Company believes that normalized net income provides a clearer picture of its continuing operations. These specific normalizing items include gains or losses on sales of assets or assets held for sale, unrealized fair value adjustments related to risk management activities, tariff charges, separation, acquisition, integration, and restructuring costs, and other charges, including but not limited to, impairment, contractual costs, preliminary costs associated with major business development projects, and settlements. This measure is particularly useful for investors as it allows for a more accurate comparison of financial performance and trends across different periods. On a per-share basis, normalized net income is derived by dividing the normalized net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Management believes this per-share measure is valuable to investors as it provides insight into the Company's profitability on a per-share basis, making it easier to evaluate the Company's performance.

Distributable Cash Flow
Distributable cash flow is used to assess the cash generated through business operations that can be used for South Bow's capital allocation decisions, helping investors understand the Company's cash-generating capabilities and its potential for returning value to shareholders. Distributable cash flow is based on income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted for depreciation and amortization, the normalizing items discussed above, and further adjusted for specific items, including income and distributions from the Company's equity investments, maintenance capital expenditures, which are capitalized and generally recoverable through South Bow's tolling arrangements, and current income taxes.
Distributable cash flow guidance is a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. South Bow does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP due to unknown variables and the uncertainty related to future results. These unknown variables may be inherently difficult to determine without unreasonable efforts. Guidance for distributable cash flow is calculated in the same manner as described above for historical distributable cash flow, as applicable.

Net Debt and Net Debt-to-normalized EBITDA Ratio
Net debt is used as a key leverage measure to assess and monitor South Bow's financing structure. It provides an overview of the Company's long-term debt obligations, net of cash and cash equivalents. This measure is useful for investors as South Bow believes it offers insights into the Company's financial health and its ability to manage and service its debt obligations. Net debt is defined as the sum of total long-term debt less 50 per cent equity treatment of Junior Notes, plus operating lease liabilities and dividends payable, less cash and cash equivalents.
Net debt-to-normalized EBITDA ratio is used to monitor the Company's leverage position relative to its normalized EBITDA for the trailing four quarters. This ratio provides investors with insight into the Company's ability to service its long-term debt obligations relative to its operational performance. A lower ratio indicates stronger financial health and greater capacity to meet its debt obligations.

Supplementary Financial Measures
South Bow uses certain supplementary financial measures that are not defined under GAAP but are commonly used in the energy infrastructure industry to evaluate capital allocation and operational performance. These measures include growth capital expenditures, maintenance capital expenditures, separation capital expenditures, and total capital expenditures.
Growth capital expenditures represent capital investments attributable to new projects or expansions that are intended to enhance the Company's capacity or service offerings. Maintenance capital expenditures refer to routine capital investments required to sustain the Company's existing operations and asset base and are generally recoverable through South Bow's tolling arrangements. Separation capital expenditures represent non-recurring capital investments in connection with the Spinoff and are not expected to be recovered through the Company's tolling arrangements. Total capital expenditures represents the sum of the Company's growth capital expenditures, maintenance capital expenditures, and separation capital expenditures.
Accounting Matters
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures ("DC&P"), which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the material information relating to the Company is made known to the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") by others, particularly during the periods in which annual and interim filings are prepared, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its annual, interim filings, or other reports filed or submitted by the Company under Canadian and U.S. securities laws is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified under those laws and the related rules.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 25


South Bow's Management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded, as a result of the general information technology ("IT") control deficiencies described below, that the Company's DC&P, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), were not effective as at September 30, 2026, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that are filed or submitted to Canadian and U.S. securities authorities is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR"), as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. South Bow's financial reporting process and associated internal controls, including operational controls and procedures for non-financial disclosures, were all designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company's accompanying financial statements for external reporting in accordance with GAAP. This design included certain compensating controls and procedures. As previously disclosed, in connection with the audit of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, Management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, assessed the effectiveness of the Company's ICFR as of December 31, 2025. Management based its assessment on criteria established in the Internal Control–Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the "2013 Framework"). Based on this assessment and the existence of the material weakness described below, Management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective ICFR as of December 31, 2025.
In April 2025, the Company implemented a new enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system and ancillary applications across the entire organization in conjunction with the termination of the use of its Former Parent's ERP system under the Transition Services Agreement. As a result, the Company modified a number of internal controls to accommodate related changes to its information systems and business processes. These changes introduced increased complexity and transition risks within the control environment, resulting in control deficiencies related to general IT controls. Management identified a material weakness related to the design and operating effectiveness of certain general IT controls that are relevant to the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company did not (i) maintain certain change management controls to ensure configuration changes affecting certain IT applications were appropriate; (ii) design and maintain certain program development controls to ensure the data migration, program testing, and approval of a new software development is aligned with business and IT requirements; and (iii) maintain user access controls in all instances to ensure segregation of duties in the Company's financial applications. As a result of these control deficiencies, process-level automated controls that are dependent on configuration in the affected IT environment and manual controls that rely on system-generated data or reports from the affected IT environments were ineffective because certain data derived from IT applications could have been adversely impacted.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in ICFR, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Although Management has performed procedures to gain comfort that the consolidated financial statements are fairly stated in all material respects, the aggregation of these control deficiencies gives rise to the possibility that a material misstatement could occur that may not be prevented or detected in a timely manner. Accordingly, these control deficiencies aggregate within the risk assessment, the control activities, and the information and communication components of the 2013 Framework and constitute a material weakness. The material weakness did not result in any identified material misstatements to the accompanying financial statements, and no adjustments were made to previously issued consolidated financial statements. Management believes the accompanying financial statements as at and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 fairly present, in all material respects, the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 26


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than with respect to the material weakness and remediation efforts described herein, there were no other changes in the ICFR, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f), that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's ICFR. Management will continue to periodically evaluate the Company's DC&P and ICFR, and will make modifications from time to time, as deemed necessary.
The Company continues to monitor and maintain appropriate internal controls during the post-implementation period following the new ERP system implementation, including performance and modification of controls, verifications, and testing to ensure data integrity and completeness.
Based on their inherent limitations, DC&P and ICFR may not prevent or detect misstatements, and even those controls determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Remedial Measures
Management, under the oversight of the Audit Committee, has completed the design and implementation of most remedial measures aimed at addressing the control deficiencies that contributed to the previously identified material weakness in ICFR. Most of the remediation activities were completed during 2025 and the first half of 2026, with the remaining remediation activities completed in the third quarter of 2026 and designed to ensure that the relevant controls are appropriately designed and implemented.
The Company engaged third-party advisors to assist Management in the execution of its remediation plan. Remediation actions implemented to date include the following:
•enhancing the Company's risk assessment and control identification procedures for system and application changes;
•strengthening IT general controls related to new system implementations and application change management; and
•enhancing the training program for IT general controls and related policies, to educate control owners on the principles and requirements of each control and to reinforce expectations for control documentation and evidence of performance, focusing on user access, change management, and segregation of duties over IT systems impacting financial reporting.
While Management believes that the remediation actions described above address the underlying control deficiencies, the material weakness will not be considered remediated (and cannot be deemed fully remediated) until the controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and Management has concluded, through testing, that such controls are operating effectively. In addition, the effectiveness of these controls is subject to independent evaluation by the Company's external auditor. Management will continue to monitor the effectiveness of the remediation efforts as part of its ongoing evaluation of ICFR. If necessary, Management may implement additional measures or modifications to further strengthen the control environment.
Critical Accounting Estimates
In preparing the accompanying financial statements in accordance with GAAP, Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Critical accounting estimates may significantly impact South Bow's financial position, changes in financial position, and financial performance. There were no changes to South Bow’s critical accounting estimates and judgments during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.
Changes in Accounting Policies
The Company has not adopted any new accounting standards during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. Refer to Note 2, Accounting Policy Changes of the Company's accompanying financial statements for details on new and amended standards issued but not yet adopted by the Company.

South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 28


Fluctuations in quarterly revenues and earnings are and can be impacted by regulatory decisions, timing of newly constructed assets being placed into service, acquisitions and divestitures, demand for uncommitted transportation services, marketing activities and commodity prices, developments outside of the normal course of operations, certain fair value adjustments, and foreign exchange rates. Over the last eight quarters, the Company's results have been impacted primarily by the following:
•Charges as a result of the Withdrawal of the Keystone Variable Toll Disputes with the CER and FERC that were recorded in the third quarter of 2025. Refer to the Recent Developments section of this MD&A for additional details.
•Separation expenses related to the planning, execution, and completion of the Spinoff. The associated costs were primarily recorded beginning in 2024 through 2025.
•Changes in market demand and opportunity for shipping uncommitted volumes, which can impact revenue recorded between quarters.
•Impacts on throughput volumes and revenues associated with the MP-171 incident, which occurred in the second quarter of 2025. Refer to the Recent Developments section of this MD&A for additional details.
Third-quarter 2026 Review
The third quarter of 2026 was highlighted by the following events:
•Generated revenues of $503 million and income from equity investments of $13 million compared to revenues of $546 million and income from equity investments of $14 million during the second quarter of 2026. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to decreased throughput on the Keystone Pipeline System and unrealized losses on the Marketing segment's risk management instruments.
•Delivered normalized EBITDA of $248 million, compared to $280 million in the second quarter of 2026, reflecting tighter pricing differentials and moderated demand for capacity on the U.S. Gulf Coast segment of the Keystone Pipeline System.
•South Bow declared its quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share on August 5, 2026, which was paid on October 15, 2026 to shareholders of record on September 29, 2026.
•Total Keystone Pipeline System throughput was approximately 586,000 bbl/d, a decrease of approximately 10,000 bbl/d from the second quarter of 2026. Throughput on the U.S. Gulf Coast segment was approximately 663,000 bbl/d, a decrease of approximately 137,000 bbl/d from the second quarter of 2026, as a result of pricing differentials tightening.
•Repurchased and extinguished $320 million of Senior Notes, exiting the period with net debt of $4.4 billion and a net debt-to-normalized EBITDA ratio of 4.3 times compared to net debt of $4.8 billion and a net debt-to-normalized EBITDA ratio of 4.7 times at December 31, 2025.
Risk Management
South Bow is subject to various risks which could have a potential material impact on the Company's financial results and operations. These risks include, but are not limited to, financial risk, operational risk, regulatory risk, market risk, commodity price risk, liquidity risk, foreign exchange risk, and counterparty credit risk.
For details on the risk factors impacting South Bow, refer to the Company's AIF for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is available on South Bow's website at www.southbow.com, under South Bow's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca, and in South Bow's filings with the SEC at www.sec.gov.
Net Investment Hedge
A portion of the Company's entities generate all or most of their earnings in Canadian dollars and, since the Company reports its financial results in U.S. dollars, changes in the value of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar can impact its comprehensive income. If the Company's Canadian dollar-denominated operations continue to grow, this exposure increases.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 29


The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk in its Canadian-dollar functional currency entity which holds U.S. dollar-denominated debt. This foreign exchange risk is offset by the designation of its U.S. dollar-denominated Junior Notes as a net investment hedge in foreign operations. The net investment hedge is perfectly effective and any foreign exchange gain or loss, as determined by the respective period-end rate, is reported as cumulative translation adjustment within accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI").

Counterparty Credit Risk
South Bow's exposure to counterparty credit risk includes its cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, environmental provision and certain contractual recoveries, available-for-sale assets, and the fair value of derivative assets.
The Company had no significant credit losses and no significant amounts impaired at September 30, 2026 and 2025 within normal trade accounts receivable. At September 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no significant credit risk concentrations.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company's financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value have been categorized into three categories based on a fair value hierarchy.
LevelsHow Fair Value Has Been Determined
Level IThis category includes quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is a market in which frequency and volume of transactions provides pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level IIThis category includes commodity derivatives where fair value is determined using the market approach. Inputs include yield curves and broker quotes from external data service providers.
Level III
This category includes long-dated transactions in certain markets where liquidity is low and the Company uses the most observable inputs available or, alternatively, long-term broker quotes or negotiated commodity prices that have been contracted for under similar terms in determining an appropriate estimate of these transactions.
There is uncertainty caused by using unobservable market data which may not accurately reflect possible future changes in fair value.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 30


The fair value of the Company's derivative assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis, including both current and non‑current portions, were categorized as follows:

Financial Instruments
Non-derivative Financial Instruments
Fair Value of Non-derivative Financial Instruments
Available-for-sale assets are recorded at fair value, which is calculated using quoted market prices where available. Certain non-derivative financial instruments included in cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, environmental provision recovery, contractual recoveries, other current assets, other long-term assets, accounts payable and other, and other long-term liabilities, have carrying amounts that approximate their fair value due to the nature of the item or the short time to maturity. Each of these instruments are classified in Level II of the fair value hierarchy.
Credit risk has been taken into consideration when calculating the fair value of non-derivative financial instruments.
Balance Sheet Presentation of Non-derivative Financial Instruments
The following table details the fair value of non-derivative financial instruments, excluding those where carrying amounts approximate fair value, and would be classified in Level II of the fair value hierarchy:

As a result, the Company records these gains and losses within other long-term assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
2. Net realized losses on the sale of LMCI restricted investments are determined using the average cost basis.
Derivative Instruments
Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
The fair value of commodity derivatives has been calculated using quoted market prices where available. In the absence of quoted market prices, third-party broker quotes or other valuation techniques have been used. The fair value of options has been calculated using the binomial pricing model. Credit risk has been taken into consideration when calculating the fair value of derivative instruments. Unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments are not necessarily representative of the amounts that will be realized on settlement.
Even though the derivatives are considered to be effective economic hedges, they do not meet the specific criteria for hedge accounting treatment or are not designated as a hedge, and are accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in net income in the period of change. This may expose the Company to increased variability in reported earnings because the fair value of the derivative instruments can fluctuate significantly from period to period.
Balance Sheet Presentation of Derivative Instruments

The majority of derivative instruments held for trading have been entered into for risk management purposes and all are subject to South Bow's risk management strategies, policies, and limits. These include derivatives that have not been designated as hedges or do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment but have been entered into as economic hedges to manage the Company's exposures to market risk.

Offsetting of Derivative Instruments
South Bow enters into commodity derivative contracts with the right to offset in the normal course of business as well as in the event of default. The Company has no master netting agreements; however, similar contracts are entered into containing rights to offset.
The Company has elected to present the fair value of derivative instruments with the right to offset on a gross basis on the consolidated balance sheets.

At September 30, 2026, the Company held nil cash collateral and $60 million in letters of credit (at December 31, 2025 – nil and $70 million, respectively) from counterparties on asset exposures.
South Bow Corporation Third Quarter 2026 Management's Discussion and Analysis | 33


Credit Risk-related Contingent Features of Derivative Instruments
Derivative contracts entered into to manage market risk often contain financial assurance provisions that allow parties to the contracts to manage credit risk. These provisions may require collateral to be provided if a credit risk-related contingent event occurs, such as a downgrade in South Bow's credit rating to non-investment grade. The Company may also need to provide collateral if the fair value of its derivative financial instruments exceeds pre-defined exposure limits. The Company has provided collateral for the derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features, recorded within other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no other derivative instruments that had credit risk-related features for which collateral was not provided.
Parental Guarantees of Debt
On August 28, 2024, the Company completed its initial debt offering which included U.S. and Canadian dollar-denominated Senior Notes and U.S. dollar-denominated Junior Notes issued by certain subsidiaries of South Bow Corporation. The guarantees are full and unconditional. The issuers and guarantors of the U.S. dollar-denominated Senior Notes and Junior Notes are summarized below:
Issuer and Guarantors ("Obligor Group")
Senior Notes
Due September 2027 ($591 million, 4.91%)
Issued by South Bow USA Infrastructure Holdings LLC and guaranteed by South Bow Infrastructure Holdings Ltd., South Bow Canadian Infrastructure Holdings Ltd., and South Bow Corporation.
Due October 2029 ($905 million, 5.03%)
Due October 2034 ($1,156 million, 5.58%)
Due October 2054 ($678 million, 6.18%)
Due February 2030 (C$450 million, 4.32%)Issued by South Bow Canadian Infrastructure Holdings Ltd. and guaranteed by South Bow Infrastructure Holdings Ltd., South Bow USA Infrastructure Holdings LLC, and South Bow Corporation.
Due February 2032 (C$500 million, 4.62%)
Due February 2035 (C$500 million, 4.93%)
Junior Notes
Due March 2055 ($450 million, 7.63%)Issued by South Bow Canadian Infrastructure Holdings Ltd. and guaranteed by South Bow Infrastructure Holdings Ltd., South Bow USA Infrastructure Holdings LLC, and South Bow Corporation.
Due March 2055 ($650 million, 7.50%)
The Senior Notes guarantees rank above all subordinated debts, including the Junior Notes, and are equal in payment priority with other non-subordinated debts. They are subordinated to secured debts to the extent of the value of the securing assets. Additionally, they are structurally subordinated to the debts and liabilities of subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes. The indentures governing the Senior Notes limit South Bow's ability to: create liens without equally and ratably securing the notes; and engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions. Such indentures also limit South Bow's ability to consolidate, merge, or transfer all or substantially all its assets.
The Junior Notes guarantees are unsecured and rank below all senior debts, including the Senior Notes. They are equal in payment priority with other specified unsecured subordinated debts and are structurally subordinated to the debts of subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Junior Notes. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency, they rank above common and preferred shares in asset distribution.
The guarantees on the Senior Notes and Junior Notes do not limit the amount of senior indebtedness that South Bow may incur or the amount of other indebtedness or liabilities that South Bow or its subsidiaries may incur, and do not contain any financial or other similar restrictive covenants.
