Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help you understand FTAI Infrastructure Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”). Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, and with Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
We are in the business of acquiring, developing and operating assets and businesses that represent critical infrastructure for customers in the transportation, energy and industrial products industries. We were formed on December 13, 2021 as FTAI Infrastructure LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of FTAI Aviation Ltd. (previously Fortress Transportation and Infrastructure Investors LLC; “FTAI” or “Former Parent”). We are a publicly-traded company trading on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “FIP.”
Our operations consist of four primary business lines: (i) Railroad, (ii) Ports and Terminals, (iii) Power and Gas and (iv) Sustainability and Energy Transition. Our Railroad business primarily invests in and operates short line and regional railroads in North America. Our Ports and Terminals business, consisting of our Jefferson Terminal and Repauno segments, develops or acquires industrial properties in strategic locations that store and handle for third parties a variety of energy products, including crude oil, refined products and clean fuels. Our Power and Gas business develops and operates facilities, such as a 485 megawatt power plant at the Long Ridge terminal in Ohio, that leverage the property’s location and key attributes to generate incremental value. Our Sustainability and Energy Transition business focuses on investments in companies and assets that utilize green technology, produce sustainable fuels and products or enable customers to reduce their carbon footprint.
We expect to continue to invest in such market sectors, and pursue additional investment opportunities in other infrastructure businesses and assets we believe to be attractive and meet our investment objectives. Our team focuses on acquiring a diverse group of long-lived assets or operating businesses that provide mission-critical services or functions to infrastructure networks and typically have high barriers to entry, strong margins, stable cash flows and upside from earnings growth and asset appreciation driven by increased use and inflation. We believe that there are a large number of acquisition opportunities in our markets and that our Manager’s expertise and business and financing relationships, together with our access to capital and generally available capital for infrastructure projects in today’s marketplace, will allow us to take advantage of these opportunities. As of March 31, 2025, we had total consolidated assets of $4.1 billion and redeemable preferred stock and equity of $0.9 billion.
Operating Segments
Our reportable segments represent strategic business units comprised of investments in different types of infrastructure assets. We have five reportable segments which operate in infrastructure businesses across several market sectors, all in North America. Our reportable segments are (i) Railroad, (ii) Jefferson Terminal, (iii) Repauno, (iv) Power and Gas and (v) Sustainability and Energy Transition. The Railroad segment is comprised of six freight railroads and one switching company that provide rail service to certain manufacturing and production facilities, in addition to KRS, a railcar cleaning operation. The Jefferson Terminal segment consists of a multi-modal crude oil and refined products terminal, Jefferson Terminal South and other related assets. The Repauno segment consists of a 1,630-acre deep-water port located along the Delaware River with an underground storage cavern, a multipurpose dock, a rail-to-ship transloading system and multiple industrial development opportunities. The Power and Gas segment is comprised of Long Ridge, which is a 1,660-acre multi-modal terminal located along the Ohio River with rail, dock, and multiple industrial development opportunities, including a power plant in operation. The Sustainability and Energy Transition segment is comprised of Aleon/Gladieux, Clean Planet, and CarbonFree, and all three investments are development stage businesses focused on sustainability and recycling.
Corporate and Other primarily consists of unallocated corporate general and administrative expenses, management fees, debt and redeemable preferred stock. Additionally, Corporate and Other includes an investment in an unconsolidated entity engaged in the acquisition and leasing of shipping containers and an operating company that provides roadside assistance services for the intermodal and over-the-road trucking industries.
Our Manager
On May 14, 2024, certain members of Fortress management and affiliates of Mubadala Investment Company, through its wholly owned asset management subsidiary, Mubadala Capital (“Mubadala”), completed their acquisition of 100% of the equity of Fortress. Fortress continues to operate as an independent investment manager under the Fortress brand, with autonomy over investment processes and decision making, personnel and operations.

Results of Operations
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)
The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) utilizes Adjusted EBITDA as the key performance measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). This performance measure provides the CODM with the information necessary to assess operational performance, as well as make resource and allocation decisions. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful metric for investors and analysts for similar purposes of assessing our operational performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to stockholders, adjusted (a) to exclude the impact of provision for (benefit from) income taxes, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition and transaction expenses, losses on the modification or extinguishment of debt and capital lease obligations, changes in fair value of non-hedge derivative instruments, asset impairment charges, incentive allocations, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, interest and other costs on pension and OPEB liabilities, dividends and accretion of redeemable preferred stock, and other non-recurring items, (b) to include the impact of our pro-rata share of Adjusted EBITDA from unconsolidated entities, and (c) to exclude the impact of equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated entities and the non-controlling share of Adjusted EBITDA .
We believe that net income (loss) attributable to stockholders, as defined by U.S. GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure with which to reconcile Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to stockholders as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our cash needs; however, we continue to evaluate and take action, as necessary, to preserve adequate liquidity and ensure that our business can continue to operate during these uncertain times. This includes limiting discretionary spending across the organization and re-prioritizing our capital projects.
As disclosed in Note 20, subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company has (i) executed its Series 2025 Bonds at its Repauno segment in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $300.0 million that will be due on January 1, 2035 and January 1, 2045, (ii) executed a binding loan commitment for $106.0 million at its Repauno segment that will be due in 18 months from initial funding and (iii) executed a loan agreement for $40.0 million at its Power and Gas segment that will be due June 7, 2026. Management has approved a plan to accrue paid-in-kind dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock which would preclude the payment of future dividends on common stock, excluding the current common dividend that our board of directors declared on
59
May 6, 2025 that will be paid on May 27, 2025 (see Note 20). Management concluded that such plans are probable of being implemented and the Company will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months from the date that the consolidated financial statements were issued. Management will continue to evaluate its liquidity and financial position and update future plans accordingly.
Our principal uses of liquidity have been and continue to be (i) acquisitions of and investments in infrastructure assets, (ii) expenses associated with our operating activities and (iii) debt service obligations associated with our investments.
• Cash used for the purpose of making investments was $164.2 million and $18.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
• Uses of liquidity associated with our operating expenses are captured on a net basis in our cash flows from operating activities. Uses of liquidity associated with our debt obligations are captured in our cash flows from financing activities.
Our principal sources of liquidity to fund these uses have been and continue to be (i) cash and restricted cash on hand as of March 31, 2025, (ii) revenues from our infrastructure business net of operating expenses and (iii) proceeds from borrowings.
• Cash flows used in operating activities were $85.7 million and $3.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
• During the three months ended March 31, 2025, additional borrowings were obtained in connection with the March 2025 Repauno Credit Agreement of $30.0 million. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, we acquired the (i) Long Ridge CanAm loan of $115.2 million, (ii) Senior Secured Notes due 2032 of $600.0 million, (iii) February 2025 Long Ridge Credit Agreement of $400.0 million and (iv) Long Ridge GCM Note of $20.0 million in connection with the acquisition of Long Ridge Energy & Power LLC (see Note 3 for additional details). During the three months ended March 31, 2024, no additional borrowings were obtained and we did not make any principal repayments of debt.
We are currently evaluating several potential transactions and related financings, including, but not limited to, providing for increased debt capacity at certain of our subsidiaries, which could occur within the next 12 months. None of these transactions, negotiations or financings are definitive or included within our planned liquidity needs. We cannot assure if or when any such transaction will be consummated or the terms of any such transaction. In addition, from time to time, we may seek to repay, refinance or restructure all or a portion of our debt or to repurchase or repay our outstanding debt through, as applicable, tender offers, exchange offers, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such transactions, if any, will depend on a number of factors, including prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements and contractual requirements (including compliance with the terms of our debt agreements), among other factors.

Net cash provided by investing activities increased $183.1 million, primarily due to (i) an increase in the acquisition of business of $226.6 million, (ii) an increase in proceeds from investor loan of $11.0 million and (iii) a decrease in the investment of equity instruments of $5.0 million, partially offset by (i) an increase in the acquisition of property, plant and equipment of $53.1 million and (ii) an increase in the investment in unconsolidated entities of $6.3 million.
Net cash used in financing activities increased $2.1 million, primarily due to (i) an increase in the payment of cash dividends on preferred stock of $25.5 million, (ii) an increase in the payment of cash dividends on common stock of $3.4 million, (iii) an increase in redeemable preferred stock issuance costs of $0.0 million and (iv) an increase in payment of financing costs of $1.0 million, partially offset by (i) an increase in proceeds from debt of $28.2 million.
Debt Obligations
Refer to Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
60
Contractual Obligations
Our material cash requirements include the following contractual and other obligations:
Debt Obligations — As of March 31, 2025, we had outstanding principal and interest payment obligations of $2.8 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively, of which, there are $94.6 million of principal payments due and $189.5 million of interest payments due within the next twelve months. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information about our debt obligations.
Unrestricted subsidiaries of FTAI Infrastructure Inc., including Long Ridge Energy & Power LLC, do not guarantee nor are they subject to the restrictive covenants of the agreements governing the indebtedness of FTAI Infrastructure Inc. As of March 31, 2025, the assets of these unrestricted subsidiaries accounted for approximately 43% of our total assets.
Lease Obligations —As of March 31, 2025, we had outstanding operating and finance lease obligations of $171.8 million, of which $8.8 million is due within the next twelve months.
Redeemable Preferred Stock Obligations —We have dividend payments of $90.1 million due on our redeemable preferred stock within the next twelve months with an option to paid-in-kind dividends at a higher interest rate and to defer payment for nine months. See Note 17 for additional information related to our preferred stock obligations.
Other Cash Requirements —In addition to our contractual obligations, we may pay quarterly cash dividends on our common stock, which are subject to change at the discretion of our board of directors.
We expect to meet our future short-term liquidity requirements through cash on hand, unused borrowing capacity or future financings and net cash provided by our current operations. We expect that our operating subsidiaries will generate sufficient cash flow to cover operating expenses and the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness as they become due. We may elect to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements or to continue to pursue strategic opportunities through utilizing cash on hand, cash generated from our current operations and the issuance of securities in the future. Management believes adequate capital and borrowings are available from various sources to fund our commitments to the extent required.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
Goodwill — Goodwill includes the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets associated with the acquisition of Jefferson Terminal, Transtar and FYX. As of December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of goodwill within the Jefferson Terminal, Railroad and Corporate and Other segments was $122.7 million, $147.2 million, and $5.4 million, respectively.
We review the carrying values of goodwill at least annually to assess impairment since these assets are not amortized. An annual impairment review is conducted as of October 1st of each year. Additionally, we review the carrying value of goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. The determination of fair value involves significant management judgment.
For an annual goodwill impairment assessment, an optional qualitative analysis may be performed. If the option is not elected or if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then a goodwill impairment test is performed to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure an impairment loss.
A goodwill impairment assessment compares the fair value of a respective reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The estimate of fair value of the respective reporting unit is based on the best information available as of the date of assessment, which primarily incorporates certain factors including our assumptions about operating results, business plans, income projections, anticipated future cash flows and market data. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, a goodwill impairment is recorded to the extent that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value.
As of October 1, 2024, for our Jefferson Terminal reporting unit, we completed a quantitative analysis. We estimate the fair value of Jefferson Terminal using an income approach, specifically a discounted cash flow analysis. This analysis requires us to make significant assumptions and estimates about the forecasted revenue growth rates, capital expenditures and discount rates. The estimates and assumptions used consider historical performance if indicative of future performance and are consistent with the assumptions used in determining future profit plans for the reporting units.
In connection with our impairment analysis, although we believe the estimates of fair value are reasonable, the determination of certain valuation inputs is subject to management's judgment. Changes in these inputs, including as a result of events beyond our control, could materially affect the results of the impairment review. If the forecasted cash flows or other key inputs are negatively revised in the future, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit could be adversely impacted, potentially leading to an impairment in the future that could materially affect our operating results. The Jefferson Terminal reporting unit had an estimated fair value that exceeded its carrying value by more than 10% as of October 1, 2024. The Jefferson Terminal reporting unit forecasted revenue is dependent on the ramp up of volumes under current and expected future contracts for storage and throughput of heavy and light crude and refined products, expansion of refined product distribution to Mexico, expansion of volumes and execution of contracts related to sustainable fuels and movements in future oil spreads. At October 1, 2024, approximately 6.0 million barrels of storage was operational. Our discount rate for our 2024 goodwill impairment analysis was 9.5% and our assumed terminal growth rate was 2.5%. If our strategy changes from planned capacity downward due to an inability to source contracts or expand volumes, the fair value of the reporting unit would be negatively affected, which could lead
61
to an impairment. The expansion of refineries in the Beaumont/Port Arthur area, as well as growing crude oil and natural gas production in the U.S. and Canada, are expected to result in increased demand for storage on the U.S. Gulf Coast. Although we do not have significant direct exposure to volatility of crude oil prices, changes in crude oil pricing that affect long term refining planned output could impact Jefferson Terminal operations.
We expect the Jefferson Terminal reporting unit to continue to generate positive Adjusted EBITDA in future years. Further delays in executing anticipated contracts or achieving our projected volumes could adversely affect the fair value of the reporting unit.
There was no impairment of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2024.
