Exhibit 99.1 April 28, 2020 Analyst Contact: Megan Patterson 918-561-5325 Media Contact: Brad Borror 918-588-7582 ONEOK Announces First Quarter 2020 Earnings Provides 2020 Outlook TULSA, Okla. - April 28, 2020 - ONEOK, Inc. (NYSE: OKE) today announced first quarter 2020 financial results, provided a 2020 outlook and reduced 2020 capital expenditures. First Quarter 2020 Results, Compared With The First Quarter 2019: • Net loss of $141.9 million, resulting in a net loss of 34 cents per diluted share (EPS), which includes noncash impairment charges of $641.8 million, or $1.17 per diluted share. • EPS of 83 cents per diluted share, excluding noncash impairment charges. • 10% increase in adjusted EBITDA to $700.8 million. • 1.35 times dividend coverage ratio. • 6% increase in NGL raw feed throughput volumes. • 5% increase in natural gas volumes processed. • 100% of natural gas transportation capacity contracted. 2020 Outlook: Given the current industry and economic environment, it is impractical for ONEOK to provide traditional financial guidance for 2020 and beyond at this time. Providing specific volume and commodity price guidance would not be appropriate for ONEOK due to the number of potential variations of outcomes that are possible for price forecasts, curtailment quantities and the duration and pace of economic recovery on a worldwide basis among other factors. ONEOK has performed a scenario analysis, and based on currently available information, believes the range of possible 2020 net income results will likely be between $500 million and $900 million, which includes the $641.8 million impact of first quarter impairment charges, and 2020 adjusted EBITDA results will likely be between $2,600 million and $3,000 million. Additionally, growth capital expenditures have been further reduced from the March 11, 2020, decrease of $500 million, and are now expected to range from $1,400 million to $1,800 million, including more than $900 million spent in the first quarter 2020. -more-

ONEOK Announces First Quarter 2020 Earnings April 28, 2020 Page 2 ONEOK has paused the majority of construction activities on the following projects, which can be restarted quickly when drilling activity resumes: • The 200 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) Bear Creek natural gas processing plant expansion and related infrastructure in the Williston Basin; • The 125,000 barrel per day (bpd) MB-5 fractionator and related infrastructure in Mont Belvieu, Texas; • The additional 40,000 bpd West Texas LPG Pipeline system expansion; and • The 65,000 bpd Mid-Continent fractionation facility expansions. “In response to COVID-19, we continue to prioritize the health and safety of our employees and stakeholders while remaining focused on operating responsibly and providing the essential services that our customers rely on us for,” said Terry K. Spencer, ONEOK president and chief executive officer. “Given the uncertainty around the global pandemic and its impact on commodity prices and global energy demand, the company’s 2020 financial guidance published on February 24, 2020, is not reflective of the prevailing economic downturn and its potential duration,” added Spencer. “The company’s 2020 outlook better reflects a wider range of current and potential actions by producers, customers and energy markets. While the near-term view of the world is changing every day, the long-term fundamentals of our strategic businesses remain strong and financially well-positioned to continue growth when global energy demand recovers.” -more-

Amounts also include benefits of $18.8 million, or 3 cents per diluted share after-tax, related to the mark-to-market of ONEOK’s share-based deferred compensation plan and $15.8 million, or 3 cents per diluted share after-tax, related to a gain on extinguishment of debt. (b) Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA), distributable cash flow (DCF) and dividend coverage ratio are non-GAAP measures. Reconciliations to relevant GAAP measures are included in this news release. (c) Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2020, includes a $15.8 million gain on extinguishment of debt. (d) Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2020, includes noncash impairment charges of $604.0 million. ONEOK reported a net loss of $141.9 million in the first quarter 2020, which includes noncash impairment charges of $641.8 million. The impairment charges relate primarily to goodwill and long-lived assets in western Oklahoma, Kansas and the Powder River Basin in ONEOK’s natural gas gathering and processing segment. Adjusted EBITDA increased 10%, compared with the same period in 2019. Higher results were due primarily to natural gas liquids (NGL) and natural gas volume growth, higher average fee rates, primarily in the Permian Basin, in the natural gas liquids segment and increased transportation services in the natural gas pipelines segment, compared with the first quarter 2019. Results were partially offset by lower earnings from optimization and marketing in the natural gas liquids segment and lower realized commodity prices in the natural gas gathering and processing segment. HIGHLIGHTS: • Recent NGL projects completed: -more-

BUSINESS-SEGMENT RESULTS: Natural Gas Liquids Segment The natural gas liquids segment’s first quarter 2020 adjusted EBITDA increased 9%, compared with the first quarter 2019, due primarily to higher volumes in the Rocky Mountain region and the Permian Basin. First quarter 2020 NGL raw feed throughput volumes increased 6%, compared with the same period in 2019. The segment connected ONEOK’s Demicks Lake II natural gas processing facility and one third-party natural gas processing plant in the Permian Basin to its system in the first quarter 2020. Two existing third-party plant connections in the Rocky Mountain region were also expanded during the quarter. Three Months Ended March 31, Natural Gas Liquids Segment 2020 2019 (Millions of dollars) Adjusted EBITDA $ 410.9 $ 377.6 Capital expenditures $ 746.2 $ 639.3 The increase in first quarter 2020 adjusted EBITDA, compared with the first quarter 2019, primarily reflects: -more-

ONEOK Announces First Quarter 2020 Earnings April 28, 2020 Page 5 • An $89.0 million increase in exchange services due to $60.2 million in higher volumes primarily in the Rocky Mountain region and Permian Basin, $18.0 million in higher average fee rates primarily in the Permian Basin and $10.9 million due primarily to lower rail transportation costs; and • A $9.0 million decrease in operating costs due primarily to lower employee-related costs and the timing of routine maintenance projects; offset partially by • A $60.6 million decrease in optimization and marketing due primarily to lower marketing earnings of $33.1 million due to the timing of purity NGL inventory sales and changes in the value of NGLs held in inventory and a decrease of $25.3 million related to narrower location price differentials. Natural Gas Gathering and Processing Segment The natural gas gathering and processing segment’s first quarter 2020 adjusted EBITDA increased 5%, compared with the same period in 2019. Continued volume growth in the Williston Basin drove higher first quarter 2020 results, including a 5% increase in total natural gas volumes processed, compared with the first quarter 2019. Three Months Ended March 31, Natural Gas Gathering and Processing Segment 2020 2019 (Millions of dollars) Adjusted EBITDA $ 159.6 $ 152.2 Capital expenditures $ 181.6 $ 215.1 First quarter 2020 adjusted EBITDA increased, compared with the first quarter 2019, which primarily reflects: • A $22.0 million increase due primarily to natural gas volume growth in the Williston Basin; offset partially by • An $18.0 million decrease due primarily to lower realized commodity prices impacting fee-based contracts with a percent of proceeds component. Natural Gas Pipelines Segment The natural gas pipelines segment’s adjusted EBITDA increased 6% in the first quarter 2020, compared with the same period in 2019, due primarily to higher firm transportation capacity contracted due to completed expansion projects in 2019 and higher firm transportation rates. -more-

ONEOK Announces First Quarter 2020 Earnings April 28, 2020 Page 7 These non-GAAP financial measures described above are useful to investors because they, and similar measures, are used by many companies in the industry as a measure of financial performance and are commonly employed by financial analysts and others to evaluate our financial performance and to compare our financial performance with the performance of other companies within our industry. Adjusted EBITDA, ONEOK distributable cash flow and dividend coverage ratio should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income (loss). Additionally, these calculations may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow and coverage ratio are included in the tables. ONEOK, Inc.
