NuStar Energy L.P. Reports Strong Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Earnings Results

Highest Fourth Quarter Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA in Company History

Permian Crude System Volumes Hit Record-Breaking Average of 584,000 Barrels Per Day/13 Percent Above 4Q 2021

Operations Performing Well Across all Systems

Fuels Marketing Segment Up Almost $23 Million Year-Over-Year

Optimization Initiative a Huge Success

Encouraging 2023 Full-Year Outlook

NuStar Energy L.P. (NYSE: NS) today announced its highest fourth quarter net income and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the company’s history, along with strong full-year 2022 results fueled by record-breaking volumes in its Permian Crude System and strong performance in its Fuels Marketing Segment.

“Given how 2022’s historic inflation and volatility made for a bumpy ride around the globe and across financial markets, I am particularly proud of our results last year, which once again demonstrate the stability and strength of NuStar’s business,” said NuStar Chairman and CEO Brad Barron. “Most importantly, we were able to deliver on our top financial priorities – to fund all our spending with internally generated cash flows and continue to strengthen our balance sheet by beginning our initiative to repurchase the outstanding Series D preferred units.”

NuStar reported net income of $92 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, or $0.18 per unit, compared to net income of $58 million, or $0.19 per unit, for the fourth quarter of 2021. Results for the fourth quarter of 2022 include a $16 million gain from insurance proceeds to rebuild tanks at its Selby terminal. Earnings per unit (EPU) for the fourth quarter of 2022 also included a $0.31 per unit premium related to the repurchase of a portion of the Series D preferred units. Excluding the effects of these items, adjusted net income was $75 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, or $0.34 per unit, compared to adjusted net income of $52 million, or $0.14 per unit, for the fourth quarter of 2021.

In addition to the insurance proceeds, Barron noted that both 2022 and 2021 included non-cash charges that impacted full-year net income, making an apples-to-apples comparison difficult. For example, for full-year 2022, NuStar reported net income of $223 million, or $0.36 per unit, compared to net income of $38 million, or a net loss of $0.99 per unit, for the year ended 2021.

“However, excluding the non-cash charges and insurance proceeds, as well as the EPU impact from the repurchase of a portion of the Series D preferred units in the fourth quarter of 2022, our full-year 2022 adjusted net income was $250 million, or $0.92 per unit, compared to 2021 adjusted net income of $212 million, or $0.60 per unit,” said Barron.

Barron continued, “Our adjusted EBITDA was $197 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, which is the highest fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA in our company’s history. This is up $28 million, or 16 percent, compared to fourth quarter of 2021 adjusted EBITDA of $169 million. Our adjusted EBITDA for full-year 2022 was $722 million, compared to 2021 adjusted EBITDA of $705 million.

“We are proud to have generated higher adjusted EBITDA for 2022 through a combination of revenue improvement and expense optimization, which helped mitigate some of the impact of 2022’s historic inflation.”

Adjusted distributable cash flow (DCF) was $89 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to fourth quarter of 2021 DCF of $63 million. The adjusted distribution coverage ratio was 2.01 times for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Adjusted DCF was $357 million for full-year 2022, compared to adjusted DCF of $333 million in 2021. The adjusted distribution coverage ratio was 2.02 times for full-year 2022.

Operations Performing Well Across all Systems

“Our Pipeline Segment generated $176 million of EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2022, up $27 million, or 18 percent, over fourth quarter 2021 EBITDA of $149 million, largely due to the strong performance of our Permian Crude System,” said Barron.

NuStar’s Permian Crude System volumes hit another high in the fourth quarter of 2022 with a record-breaking average of 584,000 barrels per day (BPD), up 13 percent over fourth quarter of 2021 volumes.

He also noted that NuStar’s Mid-Continent refined product systems once again delivered solid, dependable revenue contribution in the fourth quarter of 2022.

“In South Texas, we are pleased that our Corpus Christi Crude System throughputs averaged over 368,000 BPD in the fourth quarter of 2022, which is above our minimum volume commitments for the system and eight percent higher than volumes in the third quarter of 2022. We are also encouraged by the continued improvement we saw in January on that system, as our average volumes rose to almost 400,000 BPD last month.”

Barron also noted that operating income and EBITDA in NuStar’s Fuels Marketing Segment were $12 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, a $7 million increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, largely due to stronger margins.

“For full-year 2022, our Fuels Marketing Segment generated near-record operating income and EBITDA of $34 million, which was an increase of approximately $23 million compared to full-year 2021 operating income and EBITDA of $11 million.

“In addition, our West Coast region’s revenues continue to grow, as revenues were up around 20 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 and around 10 percent year-over-year, driven in large part by our West Coast renewable fuels strategy,” said Barron.

Balance Sheet Continues to Improve

NuStar Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Tom Shoaf gave a positive update on the company’s continued progress in reducing its debt and building its financial strength and flexibility.

“We ended the fourth quarter of 2022 with a debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.98 times,” said Shoaf. “Our total debt balance was $3.3 billion, and our revolver facility availability was over $775 million of the facility’s $1 billion capacity.

“In November, we were able to repurchase about one-third of our Series D preferred units while keeping our debt-to-EBITDA ratio under 4 times for year-end 2022. As we mentioned last quarter, we are now positioned to accelerate our timeframe for addressing the Series D preferred units by completing the redemption in 2024, which is several years ahead of our previously scheduled timeframe. This redemption is another important step in our ongoing optimization and will meaningfully increase our cash flow over the next few years.”

Encouraging 2023 Outlook

Shoaf also gave full-year guidance for net income and EBITDA, as well as strategic capital and reliability capital for 2023.

“We expect to generate full-year 2023 net income in the range of $202 to $240 million and full-year 2023 EBITDA in the range of $700 to $760 million,” said Shoaf.

He also noted that NuStar now plans to spend $130 to $150 million in strategic capital in 2023.

“We expect to allocate approximately $60 million to growing our Permian system and plan to spend about $25 million to expand our West Coast Renewable Fuels Network,” said Shoaf. “In addition, we expect to spend between $25 and $35 million on reliability this year.”

Optimization Initiative a Huge Success

Barron closed by mentioning how integral NuStar’s optimization initiative was to the company’s solid results and in facilitating an important first step to improve its capital structure in 2022.

“By systematically scrutinizing every dollar of spending, we have been able to significantly increase our cash flow with systematic changes that will continue to reap benefits in 2023 and beyond,” said Barron. “And by investing that increased cash flow in our growth footprint, we are already on the path to compounding those benefits, with the EBITDA growth we expect from organic capital projects on our Permian System and in our West Coast Renewables Network, as well as the projects we hope to announce later this year across our Ammonia System.

“We plan to continue to optimize our business and build our financial strength and unitholder value, while we continue to safely and reliably store and transport the essential energy that fuels our lives,” Barron concluded.

NuStar Energy L.P. and Subsidiaries

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information

(Unaudited, Thousands of Dollars, Except Ratio Data)

Note 1: NuStar Energy L.P. utilizes financial measures, such as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), distributable cash flow (DCF) and distribution coverage ratio, which are not defined in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes these financial measures provide useful information to investors and other external users of our financial information because (i) they provide additional information about the operating performance of the partnership’s assets and the cash the business is generating, (ii) investors and other external users of our financial statements benefit from having access to the same financial measures being utilized by management and our board of directors when making financial, operational, compensation and planning decisions and (iii) they highlight the impact of significant transactions. We may also adjust these measures to enhance the comparability of our performance across periods.

Our board of directors and management use EBITDA and/or DCF when assessing the following: (i) the performance of our assets, (ii) the viability of potential projects, (iii) our ability to fund distributions, (iv) our ability to fund capital expenditures and (v) our ability to service debt. In addition, our board of directors uses EBITDA, DCF and a distribution coverage ratio, which is calculated based on DCF, as some of the factors in its compensation determinations. DCF is a financial indicator used by the master limited partnership (MLP) investment community to compare partnership performance. DCF is used by the MLP investment community, in part, because the value of a partnership unit is partially based on its yield, and its yield is based on the cash distributions a partnership can pay its unitholders.

None of these financial measures are presented as an alternative to net income. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following is a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, DCF and distribution coverage ratio.

(a)

We intend to satisfy the vestings of these equity-based awards with the issuance of our common units. As such, the expenses related to these awards are considered non-cash and added back to DCF. Certain awards include distribution equivalent rights (DERs). Payments made in connection with DERs are deducted from DCF.

(b)

Distribution coverage ratio is calculated by dividing DCF by distributions applicable to common limited partners.
