About This Presentation This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements that management believes to be reasonable as of today’s date only. Actual results may differ significantly because of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond management’s control. You should read UGI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more extensive list of factors that could affect results. Among them are adverse weather conditions, cost volatility and availability of all energy products, including propane, natural gas, electricity and fuel oil, increased customer conservation measures, the impact of pending and future legal proceedings, continued analysis of recent tax legislation, liability for uninsured claims and for claims in excess of insurance coverage, domestic and international political, regulatory and economic conditions in the United States and in foreign countries, including the current conflicts in the Middle East, and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations (particularly the euro), the timing of development of Marcellus Shale 2 gas production, the availability, timing and success of our acquisitions, commercial initiatives and investments to grow our business, our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses and achieve anticipated synergies, the interruption, disruption, failure, malfunction, or breach of our information technology systems, including due to cyber-attack, the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the AmeriGas Merger Transaction (as defined herein) , the possible diversion of management time on issues related to the AmeriGas Merger Transaction, the risk that the requisite approvals to complete the AmeriGas Merger Transaction are not obtained, the performance of AmeriGas, and the potential need to address any reviews, investigations or other proceedings by governmental authorities or shareholder actions. UGI undertakes no obligation to release revisions to its forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after today. In addition, this presentation uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the appendix for reconciliations of these measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.

Recent Financial Highlights UGI FY19 Guidance • Adjusted EPS $2.40 - $2.601 • Improvements versus prior years • OpEx Management • Additional margin increase from new Midstream assets • Realized margin from LPG price increases enacted in prior quarters at UGI International • Tax effect impact at UGI Utilities, $22.7 million revenue reduction in Q3 2018 not a factor in 2019 • UGI remains well-positioned to deliver long-term 6% - 10% EPS growth UGI Dividend Increase • Announced 15.4% dividend increase last week • The remainder of the cumulative 25% increase (from $0.30 to $0.325) will be enacted following the close of the proposed AmeriGas merger 1Excluding the impact of the proposed AmeriGas merger. Because UGI is unable to predict certain potentially material items affecting diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis, principally mark- UGI Corporation | Fiscal 2019 Second Quarter Results to-market gains and losses on derivative instruments, it cannot reconcile FY19 Adjusted EPS to diluted EPS, the most comparable GAAP 13 measure.

Q&A


 
Appendix


 
UGI Supplemental Footnotes • Management uses "adjusted net income attributable to UGI" and "adjusted diluted earnings per share," both of which are non-GAAP financial measures, when evaluating UGI's overall performance. For the periods presented, adjusted net income attributable to UGI is net income attributable to UGI Corporation after excluding net after-tax gains and losses on commodity and certain foreign currency derivative instruments not associated with current period transactions (principally comprising changes in unrealized gains and losses on such derivative instruments), losses associated with extinguishments of debt, Finagaz integration expenses, the remeasurement impact on net deferred tax liabilities from changes in U.S. and French tax rates and merger expenses. Volatility in net income at UGI can occur as a result of gains and losses on commodity and certain foreign currency derivative instruments not associated with current period transactions but included in earnings in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). • Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the comparable GAAP measures. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to investors about UGI’s performance because they eliminate the impact of (1) gains and losses on commodity and certain foreign currency derivative instruments not associated with current- period transactions and (2) other significant discrete items that can affect the comparison of period-over-period results. • The tables on the following slides reconcile net income attributable to UGI Corporation, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted net income attributable to UGI Corporation, and reconciles diluted earnings per share, the most comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted diluted earnings per share, to reflect the adjustments referred to above.

AmeriGas Supplemental Footnotes • The enclosed supplemental information contains a reconciliation of earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income. • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance or financial condition under GAAP. Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are meaningful non-GAAP financial measures used by investors to compare the Partnership's operating performance with that of other companies within the propane industry. The Partnership's definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be different from those used by other companies. • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) attributable to AmeriGas Partners, L.P. Management uses EBITDA to compare year-over-year profitability of the business without regard to capital structure as well as to compare the relative performance of the Partnership to that of other master limited partnerships without regard to their financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or historical cost basis. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to exclude from AmeriGas Partners’ EBITDA gains and losses that competitors do not necessarily have to provide additional insight into the comparison of year-over-year profitability to that of other master limited partnerships. In view of the omission of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on commodity derivative instruments not associated with current-period transactions, and other gains and losses that competitors do not necessarily have from Adjusted EBITDA, management also assesses the profitability of the business by comparing net income attributable to AmeriGas Partners, L.P. for the relevant periods. Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the Partnership's profitability because its parent, UGI Corporation, uses the Partnership's Adjusted EBITDA to assess the profitability of the Partnership, which is one of UGI Corporation’s business segments. UGI Corporation discloses the Partnership's Adjusted EBITDA as the profitability measure for its domestic propane segment. UGI Corporation | Fiscal 2019 Second Quarter Results 24
