Read MoreHide Full Article
Phillips 66 Partners LP reported third-quarter adjusted 2021 earnings per unit of $1, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny and increasing from the year-ago profit of 85 cents.
Revenues of $452 million increased from $394 million in the year-ago quarter and beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $416 million.
