CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
With the exception of historical information, certain statements included or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Report") may be deemed "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In many cases, these forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "will," "may," "should," "could," "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "projects," "goals," "objectives," "targets," "predicts," "plans," "seeks," or similar expressions. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this Report.
Although we believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results and we can give no assurance that these expectations will be attained. Our actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to a variety of known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. You should also understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and you should not consider the following list to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:
the impact of regulatory actions in California to curtail oil production;
our ability to complete the sale of our MoGas and Omega Pipeline Systems on terms that will allow us to repay our Crimson Credit Facility and a material portion of our 5.875% Convertible Notes;
our ability to meet the NYSE continued listing standards, the failure of which would result in our Common Stock being delisted thereby constituting a "fundamental change" under the Indenture governing our 5.875% Convertible Notes and requiring us to repurchase all of our outstanding 5.875% Convertible Notes at a price equal to the principal amount of such notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest;
our ability to repurchase our outstanding 5.875% Convertible Notes upon a "fundamental change" under the Indenture governing the notes, the failure of which would constitute a default under the Indenture;
changes in economic and business conditions in the energy infrastructure sector where our investments are concentrated, including the financial condition of our customers or borrowers and general economic conditions in the U.S. and in the particular sectors of the energy industry served by each of our infrastructure assets, including inflationary and recessionary risks;
systemic pressures in the banking system, including potential disruptions in credit markets;
competitive and regulatory pressures on the revenues of our California intrastate crude oil transportation business and our interstate natural gas transmission business;
risks associated with the receipt of CPUC approval for the Company to obtain operational control over Crimson's CPUC-regulated pipeline assets;
the impact of environmental, pipeline safety and other laws and governmental regulations applicable to certain of our infrastructure assets, including additional costs imposed on our business or other adverse impacts as a result of any unfavorable changes in such laws or regulations;
our ability to comply with covenants in instruments governing our indebtedness;
the potential impact of greenhouse gas regulation and climate change on our or our customers' business, financial condition and results of operations;
risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks or acts of cyber terrorism or other cyber intrusions, or any other significant disruptions of our information technology (IT) networks and related systems;
6


risks associated with the age of Crimson's assets, which were constructed over many decades, and which may increase future inspection, maintenance or repair costs, or result in downtime that could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations;
the loss of any member of our management team;
our ability to refinance amounts outstanding under our credit facilities and our 5.875% Convertible Notes at or prior to maturity on terms favorable to us or at all;
changes in interest rates under our current credit facilities and under any additional variable rate debt arrangements that we may enter into in the future;
our dependence on key customers for significant revenues, and the risk of defaults by any such customers;
our customers' ability to secure adequate insurance and risk of potential uninsured losses, including from natural disasters;
the continued availability of third-party pipelines or other facilities interconnected with certain of our infrastructure assets;
risks associated with owning, operating or financing properties for which our customers' or our operations may be impacted by extreme weather patterns and other natural phenomena;
our ability to sell properties at an attractive price;
market conditions and related price volatility affecting our debt and equity securities;
changes in federal or state tax rules or regulations that could have adverse tax consequences;
our ability to maintain internal controls and processes to ensure that all transactions are properly accounted for, that all relevant disclosures and filings are timely made in accordance with all rules and regulations, and that any potential fraud or embezzlement is thwarted or detected;
changes in federal income tax regulations (and applicable interpretations thereof), or in the composition or performance of our assets, that could impact our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes;
conflicts of interest that some of our directors and officers may have with respect to certain other business interests related to the Crimson Transaction;
risks related to potential terrorist attacks, acts of cyber-terrorism, or similar disruptions that could disrupt access to our information technology systems or result in other significant damage to our business and properties, some of which may not be covered by insurance and all of which could adversely impact distributions to our stockholders; and
the loss of crude oil volumes on pipelines indirectly owned by Crimson due to lower than expected oil production in California or changes in customer shipping practices.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. Except as otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results and performance, see Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in CorEnergy's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2023, as supplemented by Item 1A - "Risk Factors" in this Report.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
September 30, 2023
1. INTRODUCTION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Introduction
CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. (referred to as "CorEnergy" or "the Company"), was organized as a Maryland corporation and commenced operations on December 8, 2005. The Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"), is listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "CORR" and its depositary shares representing the Company's 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Series A Preferred Stock"), are listed on the NYSE under the symbol "CORR PrA". The Company's Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Class B Common Stock"), is not listed on an exchange.
The Company owns and operates critical energy midstream infrastructure connecting the upstream and downstream sectors within the industry. The Company currently generates revenue from the transportation, via pipeline systems, of crude oil and natural gas for its customers in California and Missouri, respectively. The pipelines are located in areas where it would be difficult to replicate rights-of-way or transport crude oil or natural gas via non-pipeline alternatives, resulting in the Company's assets providing utility-like criticality in the midstream supply chain for its customers.
CorEnergy's Private Letter Rulings ("PLRs") enable the Company to invest in a broader set of revenue contracts within its real estate investment trust ("REIT") structure, including the opportunity to both own and operate infrastructure assets. CorEnergy has determined its investments in these energy infrastructure assets to be a single reportable business segment and reports them accordingly in its consolidated financial statements.
The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 1100 Walnut, Suite 3350, Kansas City, Missouri 64106.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include CorEnergy accounts and the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which CorEnergy is the primary beneficiary. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), and with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. There were no adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were not of a normal and recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation, and the Company's net earnings have been reduced by the portion of net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests, when applicable. Prior reporting period amounts have been recast to conform with the current period presentation. In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or any other interim or annual period. Amounts as of December 31, 2022 have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and, as a result, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in CorEnergy's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2023.
Going Concern
Subsidiaries of the Company and Crimson Midstream Holdings, LLC, a consolidated VIE of the Company ("Crimson"), are co-borrowers under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as February 4, 2021, which provides for borrowing capacity of up to $155.0 million (the "Crimson Credit Facility"). The Crimson Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on May 3,
14


2024, which is within twelve months of the date of issuance of these financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2023.
On May 25, 2023, the Company announced entry into a definitive agreement to sell the MoGas and Omega pipeline systems to Spire, Inc. for approximately $175.0 million in cash, subject to final working capital adjustments. The transaction is currently expected to close around the end of the calendar year, pending U.S. Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") review and subject to customary closing conditions. The Company is required to use the proceeds from such sale to repay the Crimson Credit Facility in full.
If the MoGas and Omega sale does not occur in early 2024, the Company's operating cash flows may not be sufficient to service our debt instruments or comply with the covenants contained therein in 2024. If the Company is unable to extend the maturity date of the Crimson Credit Facility, or to repay or refinance it by May 3, 2024, or meet the covenants contained therein until such repayment or refinancing, the Company's ability to meet its obligations would be adversely affected. Failure to extend the maturity date or repay the debt prior to its contractual maturity or a default under the applicable debt agreements could result in the potential foreclosure on the collateral securing such debt.
In addition, on September 12, 2023, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the NYSE that it is not in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards relating to a minimum share price requirement because the average closing price of the Company's common stock was less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The Company has six months following receipt of the Notice to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. The Company intends to regain compliance with the requirement. However, if the Company is unable to maintain the NYSE listing or obtain an alternative listing on another exchange as required under the Indenture governing the 5.875% Convertible Notes, the Company's failure to do so will constitute a "fundamental change" under the Indenture, in which case, the Company must make an offer to repurchase all of the outstanding 5.875% Convertible Notes at a price equal to the principal amount of such notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The Company projects that it will not have sufficient cash on hand or available liquidity to repurchase all of the outstanding 5.875% Convertible Notes in the event that it is required to do so. The Company's failure to make or complete the repurchase offer would result in a default under the Indenture.
The foregoing events and conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, the Company’s management believes it is probable the sale of MoGas and Omega will be successful and enable the Company to fully retire the Crimson Credit Facility before its contractual maturity and allow the Company to sufficiently service debt instruments and comply with the covenants contained therein during 2024, although no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to do so. Additionally, the Company believes it is probable that the sale of MoGas and Omega and other available options will allow the Company to regain compliance with the NYSE minimum listing standard and avoid delisting before March 12, 2024 and the requirement to make an offer to repurchase the outstanding 5.875% Convertible Notes as described above, although no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to do so. As a result, the Company has concluded that management's plans are probable of being achieved to alleviate substantial doubt of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
MoGas and Omega
During March 2023, the Company determined that the MoGas and Omega pipeline assets have met the criteria of "held-for- sale" accounting, as specified by FASB's ASC 360, "Property, Plant and Equipment." The carrying value of the assets and liabilities of this component is less than the fair value less costs to sell. Therefore, amounts are presented at carrying value within the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. Refer to Note 3 ("Held-For-Sale") for further discussion.
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June of 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" ("ASU 2016-13"), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The new model, referred to as the current expected credit losses model ("CECL model"), applies to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, as well as certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. Consistent with the guidance for smaller reporting companies, the Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023.
Trade receivables - Accounts receivable from the transportation and distribution of crude oil and natural gas are generally settled with counterparties within 60 days of the service month. The Company has a high historical rate of collectability of
15


greater than 99% of total revenue and, as such, has adopted an impairment model based on an evaluation of its aging schedule. As of September 30, 2023 the Company's calculated allowance for doubtful accounts was immaterial.
Financing note receivable - Refer to Note 6 ("Financing Notes Receivable") for further discussion.
The Company utilized the modified retrospective approach for implementation and recorded a $50 thousand cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2023.
3. HELD-FOR-SALE
MoGas Pipeline and Omega Pipeline Systems
As of September 30, 2023, the Company's MoGas and Omega pipeline systems were classified as assets and liabilities held-for-sale. The Company is disposing of these assets to address upcoming debt maturities on the Crimson Credit Facility and to reduce outstanding debt associated with the Company's 5.875% Unsecured Convertible Senior Notes due 2025.
On May 25, 2023, the Company announced entry into a definitive agreement to sell the MoGas and Omega pipeline systems to Spire, Inc. for $175.0 million in cash, subject to final working capital adjustments. On July 3, 2023, the Company received a request for additional information ("Second Request") from the FTC with regard to this proposed acquisition. The Company is fully cooperating with the FTC regarding the Second Request and expects to close around the end of the calendar year subject to receiving FTC approval.
The pre-tax profit from the disposal group held for sale is summarized in the table below for each period the statement of operations is presented:

4. TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION REVENUE
The Company's contracts related to transportation and distribution revenue are primarily comprised of a mix of crude oil, natural gas supply and natural gas transportation and distribution performance obligations, as well as limited performance obligations related to system maintenance and improvement.
Crude Oil and Natural Gas Transportation and Distribution
Under the Company's (i) crude oil and natural gas transportation, (ii) natural gas supply and (iii) natural gas distribution performance obligations, the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the services as the commodity is delivered. Therefore, the transaction price is allocated proportionally over the series of identical performance obligations with each contract, and the Company satisfies performance obligations over time as transportation and distribution services are performed. The transaction price is calculated based on (i) CPUC and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") regulated rates or negotiated rates in the case of transportation agreements, (ii) index price, plus a contractual markup in the case of natural gas supply agreements (considered variable due to fluctuations in the index) and (iii) contracted amounts (with annual Consumer Price Index escalators) in the case of the Company's distribution agreement.
The Company's crude oil transportation revenue also includes amounts earned for pipeline loss allowance ("PLA"), which represents the estimated realizable value of the earned loss allowance volumes received by the Company as applicable under the tariff or contract. As is common in the pipeline transportation industry, as crude oil is transported, the Company earns a small percentage of the crude oil volume transported to offset any measurement uncertainty or actual volumes lost in transit. The Company will settle the PLA with its shippers either in-kind or in cash. PLA received by the Company typically exceeds actual pipeline losses in transit and typically results in a benefit to the Company.
When PLA is paid-in-kind, the barrels are valued at current market price less standard deductions, recorded as inventory and recognized as non-cash consideration revenue, concurrent with related transportation services. PLA paid in cash is treated in the same way as in-kind, but no inventory is created. In accordance with ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606") when control of the PLA volumes has been transferred to the purchaser, the Company records this non-cash consideration as revenue at the contractual sales price within PLA revenue and PLA cost of revenues.
Based on the nature of the agreements, revenue for all but one of the Company's natural gas supply, transportation and distribution performance obligations is recognized on a right-to-invoice basis as the performance obligations are met, which represents what the Company expects to receive in consideration and is representative of value delivered to the customer.
System Maintenance & Improvement
System maintenance and improvement contracts are specific and tailored to the customer's needs, have no alternative use and have an enforceable right to payment as the services are provided. Revenue is recognized on an input method, based on the actual cost of service as a measure of the performance obligation satisfaction. Differences between amounts invoiced and revenue recognized under the input method are reflected as an asset or liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The costs of system improvement projects are recognized as a financing arrangement in accordance with guidance in ASC 842, "Leases," while the margin is recognized in accordance with the ASC 606 revenue standard as discussed above.
The table below summarizes the Company's contract liability balance related to its transportation and distribution revenue contracts:
Contract Liability(1)

(1) As of September 30, 2023, the contract liability balance is included in unearned revenue (Crimson portion) and liabilities held-for-sale (MoGas and Omega portion) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2022, the contract liability balance was included in unearned revenue in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2) As of September 30, 2023, the contract liability balance for MoGas and Omega was $5.1 million and is recorded in liabilities held-for-sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company's contract asset balances were immaterial as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company also recognized deferred contract costs related to incremental costs to obtain a transportation performance obligation contract, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the contract. As of September 30, 2023, the remaining
17


unamortized deferred contract costs balance was approximately $684 thousand. The contract asset and deferred contract costs balances are included in assets held-for-sale and prepaid expenses and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
The following is a breakout of the Company's transportation and distribution revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

5. LEASES
The Company and its subsidiaries currently lease land, corporate office space, single-use office space, and equipment. During 2022, Crimson entered into a new corporate office lease that commenced upon possession of the property on April 15, 2023. No lease payments are due for the first year. During September 2023, the Company extended the lease for the CorEnergy corporate office, which will be effective December 2023 through May 2024. An additional operating right-of-use asset and operating lease liability were recorded for this lease in the amount of $97 thousand each. The Company's leases are classified as operating leases and presented as operating right-of-use assets (assets held-for-sale for MoGas and Omega) and operating lease liabilities (liabilities held-for-sale for MoGas and Omega) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023. The Company's leases are presented as operating right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022. The Company recognizes lease expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term. The Company noted the following information regarding its operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

6. FINANCING NOTES RECEIVABLE
On December 12, 2018, Four Wood Corridor, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a $1.3 million note receivable with Compass SWD, LLC related to the sale of real and personal property that provide saltwater disposal services for the oil and natural gas industry (the "Compass REIT Loan"). Subsequent to amendments to the Compass REIT Loan in 2019, 2020 and 2021, the Compass REIT Loan matures on July 31, 2026 and accrues interest at an annual rate of 12.0%, with monthly payments of $24 thousand.
18


As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Compass REIT Loan balance was $659 thousand and $858 thousand, respectively, net of reserves of $50 thousand and zero, respectively. The Company uses the discounted cash flow method to estimate expected credit losses and also reviews other factors that may affect the collectability of the balance, including timeliness of required payments, past due status and discussions with obligors. As of September 30, 2023, there were no past due payments associated with the Compass REIT Loan.
7. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes. Components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, are as follows:

(1) The deferred tax liability is recorded within certain parent entities that are not part of the disposal group, however, because the liability was generated from the operations of the disposal group, the Company has included it within liabilities held-for-sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The total deferred tax assets and liabilities presented above relate to the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"). The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is "more likely than not" to be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities based on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company's policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as part of tax expense. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no uncertain tax positions. Tax years beginning with the year ended December 31, 2019 remain open to examination by federal and state tax authorities.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the TRSs had cumulative net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") of $30.2 million and $29.2 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, NOLs of $27.9 million and $26.4 million, respectively, that were generated during the periods ended September 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020,
19


2019, and 2018 may be carried forward indefinitely, subject to limitation. NOLs generated for years prior to December 31, 2018 may be carried forward for 20 years.
Management assessed the available evidence and determined that it is more likely than not that the capital loss carryforwards will not be utilized prior to expiration. Due to the uncertainty of realizing this deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance of $92 thousand was recorded, equal to the amount of the tax benefit of this carryforward at both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Additionally, the Company determined that certain of the federal and state NOLs may not be utilized prior to their expiration. Due to the uncertainty of realizing these deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance of $3.6 million and $5.2 million was recorded at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In the future, if the Company concludes, based on existence of sufficient evidence, that it should realize more or less of the deferred tax assets, the valuation allowance will be adjusted accordingly in the period such conclusion is made.
The Company provides for income taxes during interim periods based on the estimated effective tax rate for the year and any discrete adjustments. The effective tax rate is subject to change in the future due to various factors such as the operating performance of the TRSs, tax law changes, and future business acquisitions or divestitures. The TRSs’ effective tax rates were (24.9)% and 24.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The negative tax rate for the current period is a result of the tax benefit received from the lower valuation allowance requirement described in the preceding paragraph.
The components of income tax expense (benefit) include the following for the periods presented:
