Guidance Summary (millions, except EPS) Guidance 2023 Adjusted EBITDA1 $880 - $920 Operating Earnings2 $340 - $356 Operating EPS2 $3.50 - $3.66 Distributable Cash Flow3 $625 - $675 Capital Expenditures $605 - $690 Growth Capital4 $575 - $650 Maintenance Capital $30 - $40 2024 Adjusted EBITDA (early outlook) $920 - $970 1. Definition and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to net income included in this appendix 2. Definition of Operating Earnings and Operating Earnings per Share (non-GAAP) to reported earnings included in this appendix; EPS calculation based on average share count of approximately 97 million shares outstanding - diluted 3. Definition of Distributable Cash Flow (non-GAAP) included in this appendix Growth Capital includes contribution to equity method investees 1. 20

 
 

Non-GAAP Definitions Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow (DCF) are non-GAAP measures Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income attributable to DT Midstream before expenses for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and loss from financing activities, further adjusted to include our proportional share of net income from our equity method investees (excluding taxes, depreciation and amortization), and to exclude certain items we consider non-routine. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to us and external users of our financial statements in understanding our operating results and the ongoing performance of our underlying business because it allows our management and investors to have a better understanding of our actual operating performance unaffected by the impact of interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-routine charges noted in the table below. We believe the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is meaningful to investors because it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in our industry to evaluate a company's operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such measure, which can vary substantially from company to company depending on accounting methods, book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors. We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess our performance by reportable segment and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting. Distributable Cash Flow (DCF) is calculated by deducting earnings from equity method investees, depreciation and amortization attributable to noncontrolling interests, cash interest expense, maintenance capital investment (as defined below), and cash taxes from, and adding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, certain items we consider non-routine and dividends and distributions from equity method investees to, Net Income Attributable to DT Midstream. Maintenance capital investment is defined as the total capital expenditures used to maintain or preserve assets or fulfill contractual obligations that do not generate incremental earnings. We believe DCF is a meaningful performance measurement because it is useful to us and external users of our financial statements in estimating the ability of our assets to generate cash earnings after servicing our debt, paying cash taxes and making maintenance capital investments, which could be used for discretionary purposes such as common stock dividends, retirement of debt or expansion capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for the results of operations presented in accordance with GAAP. There are significant limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA and DCF as a measure of performance, including the inability to analyze the effect of certain recurring and non-recurring items that materially affect our net income or loss. Additionally, because Adjusted EBITDA and DCF exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and are defined differently by different companies in our industry, Adjusted EBITDA and DCF do not intend to represent net income attributable to DT Midstream, the most comparable GAAP measure, as an indicator of operating performance and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliation of net income attributable to DT Midstream to Adjusted EBITDA or DCF as projected for full-year 2023 and 2024 is not provided. We do not forecast net income as we cannot, without unreasonable efforts, estimate or predict with certainty the components of net income. These components, net of tax, may include, but are not limited to, impairments of assets and other charges, divestiture costs, acquisition costs, or changes in accounting principles. All of these components could significantly impact such financial measures. At this time, management is not able to estimate the aggregate impact, if any, of these items on future period reported earnings. Accordingly, we are not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for Adjusted EBITDA or DCF. 1. 21

 
 

Non-GAAP Definitions Operating Earnings and Operating Earnings per share are non-GAAP measures Use of Operating Earnings Information - Operating Earnings exclude non-recurring items, certain mark-to-market adjustments and discontinued operations. DT Midstream management believes that Operating Earnings provide a more meaningful representation of the company's earnings from ongoing operations and uses Operating Earnings as the primary performance measurement for external communications with analysts and investors. Internally, DT Midstream uses Operating Earnings to measure performance against budget and to report to the Board of Directors. In this presentation, DT Midstream provides guidance for future period Operating Earnings. It is likely that certain items that impact the company's future period reported results will be excluded from operating results. A reconciliation to the comparable future period reported earnings is not provided because it is not possible to provide a reliable forecast of specific line items (i.e., future non-recurring items, certain mark-to-market adjustments and discontinued operations). These items may fluctuate significantly from period to period and may have a significant impact on reported earnings. 1. 22

 
 

Non-GAAP Reconciliations Reconciliation of net income attributable to DT Midstream to Adjusted EBITDA 2022 Net income attributable to DT Midstream $370 Plus: Interest expense 137 Plus: Income tax expense 100 170 13 206 (10) (3) (150) (3) $ 830 Plus: Depreciation and amortization Plus: Loss from financing activities Plus: EBTDA from equity method investees 1 Plus: Adjustments for non-routine items 2 Less: Interest income Less: Earnings from equity method investees Less: Depreciation and amortization attributable to noncontrolling interests Adjusted EBITDA 1. Includes share of our equity method investees' earnings before taxes, depreciation and amortization, which we refer to as "EBTDA." A reconciliation of earnings from equity method investees to EBTDA from equity method investees follows: 2022 Earnings from equity method investees Plus: Depreciation and amortization from equity method investees EBTDA from equity method investees 2022 $ 150 56 $ 206 2. Adjusted EBITDA calculation excludes certain items we consider non-routine. For the year ended December 31, 2022, adjustments for non-routine items include a $17 million gain on sale of certain assets in the Utica shale region, partially offset by an equity method investee goodwill impairment of $7 million. 1.
