NGL Energy Partners LP Announces Second Quarter Fiscal 2020 Financial Results

NGL Energy Partners LP (NYSE:NGL) (“NGL,” “our,” “we,” or the “Partnership”) today reported income from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 of $0.7 million, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $26.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. For the six months ended September 30, 2019, the Partnership reported a loss from continuing operations of $1.7 million, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $284.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2018.

“We have accomplished a significant shift in our business over the past two years, culminating in the most recent quarter when we sold the majority of our refined products business, closed on the Mesquite acquisition and announced the acquisition of Hillstone,” stated Mike Krimbill, NGL’s CEO. “We have removed a significant amount of volatility and seasonality from our earnings, reduced leverage and simplified our business model. We have grown our water solutions infrastructure, increased our acreage dedications and minimum volume commitments and lengthened our average customer contract term as we have moved this segment to a true midstream model. Our quarterly results demonstrate some of these accomplishments, with others, including the continued ramp of volumes on Mesquite and our organic pipeline developments, the integration of Hillstone into our Delaware Basin gathering and disposal franchise and the further wind down of refined products with the corresponding reduction in working capital, expected to be completed during the second half of our fiscal year.”

Highlights for the quarter include:

  • Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the second quarter of Fiscal 2020 of $119.0 million, compared to $91.7 million for the second quarter of Fiscal 2019
  • Acquisition of the assets of Mesquite Disposals Unlimited, LLC (“Mesquite”) on July 2, 2019 for a total purchase price of $885.3 million on a cash-free, debt-free basis, $200.0 million of which will be funded in deferred payments
  • Issuance of 9.00% Class D Preferred Units for gross proceeds of $400.0 million, 9.00% Class B Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units valued at approximately $100.0 million and entered into a $250 million Term Credit Agreement to fund the acquisition of Mesquite
  • Completion of the sale of a significant portion of the Partnership’s Refined Products business (“TPSL”) on September 30, 2019 for approximately $300.0 million, including the monetization of certain related hedge positions after the completion of the sale, with proceeds used to reduce indebtedness and improve leverage

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Partnership:

  • Completed the acquisition of Hillstone Environmental Partners, LLC (“Hillstone”) on October 31, 2019;
  • Issued 9.00% Class D Preferred Units for gross proceeds of $200.0 million to fund a portion of Hillstone; and
  • Amended the Partnership’s Credit Agreement to, among other things, adjust certain financial covenants and provide for up to $1.790 billion in aggregate commitments, consisting of (i) a $600 million Working Capital Facility for working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes and (ii) a $1.190 billion Expansion Capital Facility, for acquisitions, internal growth projects, other capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.

The tables included in this release reconcile operating income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, for each of our operating segments.

Crude Oil Logistics

The Partnership’s Crude Oil Logistics segment generated Adjusted EBITDA of $54.6 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to $48.5 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Results for the second quarter of Fiscal 2020 improved compared to the same quarter in Fiscal 2019 due to increased volumes on our Grand Mesa Pipeline as a result of increased production in the DJ Basin. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, financial volumes on the Grand Mesa Pipeline averaged approximately 128,000 barrels per day.

Liquids

The Partnership’s Liquids segment generated Adjusted EBITDA of $19.3 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to $20.5 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was largely driven by lower volumes and margins on propane sales. The decrease was offset by strong butane sales, including steady volumes at our Chesapeake, Virginia export terminal.

Total product margin per gallon was $0.045 for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to $0.048 for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily the result of lower propane and other product margins.

Propane volumes decreased by approximately 4.5 million gallons, or 1.7%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Butane volumes increased by approximately 38.7 million gallons, or 29.5%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2018. Other Liquids volumes decreased by approximately 0.3 million gallons, or 0.3%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Water Solutions

The Partnership’s Water Solutions segment generated Adjusted EBITDA of $56.9 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to $38.8 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA is due to an increase in the volume of wastewater processed as well as higher disposal fees per barrel. The Partnership processed approximately 1,258,000 barrels of wastewater per day during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, a 24.9% increase when compared to approximately 1,008,000 barrels of wastewater per day during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The increase in volumes is due to wastewater processed from the acquisition of Mesquite and other acquired and newly developed facilities, which was partially offset by wastewater volume reductions as a result of the sale of our Bakken and South Pecos water disposal businesses during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.

Revenues from recovered hydrocarbons, including the impact from realized skim oil hedges, totaled $16.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $3.5 million from the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher prices from our skim oil sales net of hedges, which were partially offset by lower skim oil volumes resulting from the sale of our Bakken and South Pecos water disposal businesses.

Refined Products and Renewables

The Partnership’s Refined Products and Renewables segment generated Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $(0.5) million during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to $(6.1) million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 were positively impacted by increased volumes due to continued demand for motor fuels and higher margins in West Coast markets, partially offset by lower inventory valuations resulting from lower Gulf Coast gasoline and diesel prices.

Refined product barrels sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 totaled approximately 41.8 million barrels, an increase of approximately 0.7 million barrels compared to the same period in the prior year due to an increase in bulk sales volumes. Renewables barrels sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 totaled approximately 0.6 million, which was slightly lower than the same period in the prior year.

The Partnership completed the sale of TPSL on September 30, 2019 for approximately $300.0 million, including the monetization of certain related hedge positions after the completion of the sale. The results from the business that was sold are included in discontinued operations in the Partnership’s financial statements.

Corporate and Other

Adjusted EBITDA for Corporate and Other was $(11.3) million during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to $(10.1) million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The increase in expenses is primarily due to increased costs related to compensation, consulting services and insurance, partially offset by lower legal costs.

Capitalization and Liquidity

On October 30, 2019, the Partnership amended its Credit Agreement, to, among other things, adjust the allocation of the commitments of the lenders to make revolving loans thereunder and, effective with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2019, eliminate the leverage ratio financial covenant (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and adjust the senior secured leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and total leverage indebtedness ratio financial covenants (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As amended, the Credit Agreement provides for up to $1.790 billion in aggregate commitments, consisting of (i) a $600 million Working Capital Facility for working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes and (ii) a $1.190 billion Expansion Capital Facility for acquisitions, internal growth projects, other capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.

Total debt outstanding, including working capital borrowings, was $2.774 billion at September 30, 2019 compared to $2.161 billion at March 31, 2019, an increase of $613 million due primarily to the redemption of the Partnership’s Class A Preferred Units, the Mesquite acquisition and other growth capital expenditures during the period, which were partially offset by a reduction in working capital borrowings using proceeds from the sale of TPSL. The Partnership’s Leverage Ratio and Total Indebtedness Leverage Ratio (as defined in our Credit Agreement) were approximately 3.73x and 4.85x, respectively, at September 30, 2019.

Working capital borrowings totaled $643.0 million at September 30, 2019 compared to $896.0 million at March 31, 2019, a decrease of $253.0 million driven by the sale of TPSL and associated assets. Total liquidity (cash plus available capacity on our revolving credit facility) was approximately $503.5 million as of September 30, 2019.

Fiscal 2020 Guidance Update

Second Quarter Conference Call Information

A conference call to discuss NGL’s results of operations is scheduled for 10:00 am Central Time on Friday, November 8, 2019. Analysts, investors, and other interested parties may access the conference call by dialing (800) 291-4083 and providing access code 2980107. An archived audio replay of the conference call will be available for 7 days beginning at 1:00 pm Central Time on November 8, 2019, which can be accessed by dialing (855) 859-2056 and providing access code 2980107.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

NGL defines EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to NGL Energy Partners LP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense. NGL defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or market adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition expense, revaluation of liabilities, certain legal settlements and other. We also include in Adjusted EBITDA certain inventory valuation adjustments related to our Refined Products and Renewables segment, as discussed below. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net (loss) income, income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. NGL believes that EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating NGL’s ability to make quarterly distributions to NGL’s unitholders and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. NGL believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating NGL’s financial performance without regard to NGL’s financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as NGL defines them, may not be comparable to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures used by other entities.

Other than for NGL’s Refined Products and Renewables segment, for purposes of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation, NGL makes a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is open, NGL records changes in the fair value of the derivative as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, NGL reverses the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss and records a realized gain or loss. NGL does not draw such a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives of NGL’s Refined Products and Renewables segment. The primary hedging strategy of NGL’s Refined Products and Renewables segment is to hedge against the risk of declines in the value of inventory over the course of the contract cycle, and many of the hedges are six months to one year in duration at inception. The “inventory valuation adjustment” row in the reconciliation table reflects the difference between the market value of the inventory of NGL’s Refined Products and Renewables segment at the balance sheet date and its cost, adjusted for the impact of seasonal market movements related to our base inventory and the related hedge. NGL includes this in Adjusted EBITDA because the unrealized gains and losses associated with derivative contracts associated with the inventory of this segment, which are intended primarily to hedge inventory holding risk and are included in net income, also affect Adjusted EBITDA.

Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA minus maintenance capital expenditures, income tax expense, cash interest expense and other. Maintenance capital expenditures represent capital expenditures necessary to maintain the Partnership’s operating capacity. Distributable Cash Flow is a performance metric used by senior management to compare cash flows generated by the Partnership (excluding growth capital expenditures and prior to the establishment of any retained cash reserves by the Board of Directors) to the cash distributions expected to be paid to unitholders. Using this metric, management can quickly compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned cash distributions. This financial measure also is important to investors as an indicator of whether the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain, or support an increase in, quarterly distribution rates. Actual distribution amounts are set by the Board of Directors.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements.” All statements other than statements of historical facts included or incorporated herein may constitute forward-looking statements. Actual results could vary significantly from those expressed or implied in such statements and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. While NGL believes such forward-looking statements are reasonable, NGL cannot assure they will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that affect operations, financial performance, and other factors as discussed in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other factors that could impact any forward-looking statements are those risks described in NGL’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other public filings. You are urged to carefully review and consider the cautionary statements and other disclosures made in those filings, specifically those under the heading “Risk Factors.” NGL undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as required by law.

NGL provides Adjusted EBITDA guidance that does not include certain charges and costs, which in future periods are generally expected to be similar to the kinds of charges and costs excluded from Adjusted EBITDA in prior periods, such as income taxes, interest and other non-operating items, depreciation and amortization, net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or market adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition expense, revaluation of liabilities and items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring. The exclusion of these charges and costs in future periods will have a significant impact on the Partnership’s Adjusted EBITDA, and the Partnership is not able to provide a reconciliation of its Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss) without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs and the Partnership believes that such reconciliation, if possible, would imply a degree of precision that would be potentially confusing or misleading to investors.

_________

(1)

Amount reflects the difference between the market value of the inventory of NGL’s Refined Products and Renewables segment at the balance sheet date and its cost, adjusted for the impact of seasonal market movements related to our base inventory and the related hedge. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” above for a further discussion.

(2)

Equity-based compensation expense in the table above may differ from equity-based compensation expense reported in the footnotes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Partnership’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. Amounts reported in the table above include expense accruals for bonuses expected to be paid in common units, whereas the amounts reported in the footnotes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements only include expenses associated with equity-based awards that have been formally granted.

(3)

Amounts represent expenses we incurred related to legal and advisory costs associated with acquisitions, including amounts accrued related to the LCT Capital, LLC legal matter (as discussed in the footnotes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Partnership’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019), partially offset by reimbursement for certain legal costs incurred in prior periods.

(4)

Amounts represent the non-cash valuation adjustment of contingent consideration liabilities, offset by the cash payments, related to royalty agreements acquired as part of acquisitions in our Water Solutions segment.

(5)

Represents the accrual for the estimated cost of the settlement of the Gavilon legal matter (see the footnotes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Partnership’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019). We have excluded this amount from Adjusted EBITDA as it relates to transactions that occurred prior to our acquisition of Gavilon LLC in December 2013.

(6)

Amounts for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 represent non-cash operating expenses related to our Grand Mesa Pipeline, unrealized losses on marketable securities and accretion expense for asset retirement obligations.

(7)

Amounts represent interest expense payable in cash for the period presented, excluding changes in the accrued interest balance.

(8)

Amounts represents cash paid to settle asset retirement obligations.
