QEP Midstream Partners Reports Third Quarter 2014 Financial And Operating Results
DENVER, Nov. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- QEP Midstream Partners, LP (NYSE: QEPM) ("QEPM" or the "Partnership") today reported third quarter 2014 financial and operating results. The Partnership reported net income of $13.7 million, or $0.25 per limited partner unit (on a diluted basis). The Partnership generated Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) of $23.6 million and distributable cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) of $18.6 million for the third quarter 2014, which represents 113% coverage of the third quarter 2014 distribution of $16.4 million. Please see the definitions of non-GAAP measures and the reconciliation to the most comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this press release.
The Partnership will pay a quarterly distribution of $0.30 per unit for the third quarter 2014 on November 14, 2014, to unitholders of record as of the close of business on November 4, 2014. The distribution represents an increase of $0.02 per common unit, or 7%, over the second quarter 2014 distribution and is 20% over the Partnership's minimum quarterly distribution of $0.25 per unit.
Third Quarter Highlights
- Reported net income of $13.7 million
- Increased the quarterly cash distribution by $0.02 to $0.30 per unit
- Generated $23.6 million of Adjusted EBITDA and $18.6 million of distributable cash flow
"QEPM delivered solid results in the third quarter with stable natural gas and crude oil and increased water gathering volumes," commented Chuck Stanley, President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our steady performance in the quarter and the acquisition of a 40% interest in Green River Processing allowed the Partnership to increase its distribution by seven percent compared to the prior quarter, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of distribution increases," concluded Stanley.
Operating Results
Compared to the results for the third quarter 2013 for the Partnership's Predecessor (see discussion under Supplemental Pro Forma Disclosures), gathering and transportation revenue and gathering expense decreased. The Predecessor results, which include results for assets that were not assigned to the Partnership but were retained by the Predecessor, decreased due to the lack of comparability of the results.
Compared with the third quarter 2013 on a pro forma basis, gathering and transportation revenue was down slightly and condensate sales decreased by $1.1 million in the third quarter 2014. Natural gas gathering volumes in the third quarter 2014 declined by 7% from the prior year due to declines in throughput on the Green River and Vermillion systems, and decreased 9% from the prior quarter, due to variances associated with seasonality. Condensate sales revenue in the third quarter 2014 was $0.1 million down $1.1 million from the third quarter 2013 and down $1.7 million from the prior quarter due in part to seasonal variability, as warmer ground temperatures in late summer result in lower condensate recovery from the Partnership's gas gathering pipelines.
Operating expenses in the third quarter 2014 increased by 1% from the prior year due primarily to higher general and administrative expenses from professional service fees incurred for the Green River Acquisition, partially offset by lower depreciation and amortization.
Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2014, the Partnership had $15.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $230.0 million of borrowings on its $500 million revolving credit facility.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures totaled $11.6 million for the Partnership for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which includes maintenance capital of $10.6 million and expansion capital of $1.0 million. Maintenance capital expenditures of $10.6 million include $8.0 million related to the Green River Gathering System, of which $3.2 million related to a compressor overhaul project, $3.7 million related to system maintenance, and $1.1 million related to a condensate pipeline repair and replacement project. The Partnership was reimbursed by QEP for the $1.1 million of pipeline repair costs pursuant to an indemnification provision in the Omnibus Agreement. The remaining maintenance capital expenditures of $2.6 million related primarily to compressor maintenance on the Vermillion Gathering System. Expansion capital expenditures of $1.0 million related primarily to a compression project on the Vermillion Gathering System and reimbursable well connects on the Williston Gathering System. The Partnership also made contributions to Green River Processing of $1.1 million, of which $0.7 million was for capital expenditures related to various system maintenance projects and $0.4 million was for an operating expense reserve.
2014 Guidance
The Partnership's guidance has been revised from the second quarter 2014 results update. For 2014 the Partnership forecasts distributable cash flow in a range of $72 million to $78 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $85 million to $87 million, both unchanged from prior guidance. Capital expenditures net of reimbursements from QEP and excluding Green River Processing are expected to be in the range of $13 million to $16 million compared with $11 million to $14 million previously estimated and include expansion capital expenditures of $1 million to $2 million. In addition to capital expenditures related to our consolidated assets, the Partnership expects to make contributions to Green River Processing related to maintenance capital expenditures for approximately $1 million to $3 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release, and the accompanying tables, includes financial measures in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), as well as non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow provides information useful to investors in assessing QEPM's financial condition and results of operations. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to the Partnership or Predecessor before depreciation and amortization, interest and other income and expense, gains and losses from asset sales, deferred revenue associated with minimum volume commitment payments and certain other non-cash and/or non-recurring items. Management defines Distributable Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less net cash interest paid, maintenance capital expenditures and cash adjustments related to equity method investments and non-controlling interests, and other non-cash expenses. Distributable Cash Flow does not reflect changes in working capital balances.
The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are net income and cash flow provided by operating activities attributable to the Partnership or Predecessor. The tables below include reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest GAAP financial measures.

Supplemental Pro Forma Disclosures
The discussion of our historic performance and financial condition is presented for the Partnership (Successor), for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, and for the Predecessor for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
The historic financial information of the Predecessor contained in this report relates to periods that ended prior to the completion of the IPO, and includes results for both the properties conveyed to the Partnership in connection with the IPO and properties retained by our Predecessor. We believe that historical data limited to only the properties conveyed to the Partnership in connection with the IPO, adjusted for transactions that occurred as a result of the IPO, is relevant and meaningful, enhances the discussion of the periods presented and is useful to the reader to better understand trends in our operations. Therefore, we have also included the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 on a pro forma basis.
The following pro forma financial data is for informational purposes only and was derived from the Predecessor financial information adjusted to give effect to events and circumstances that are directly attributed to the IPO transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2013, that are factually supportable and, with respect to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, are expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results. These adjustments include: removing the results of the assets retained by the Predecessor, consisting of the Uinta Basin Gathering System and general support equipment; an adjustment to general and administrative expense for the estimated incremental expenses that would have occurred as a result of operating as a public company and the entry into the Omnibus Agreement concurrent with the IPO; and an adjustment to interest expense to eliminate the related party debt that was settled in conjunction with the IPO and to estimate interest expense related to the Credit Facility entered into following the IPO. The unaudited pro forma information should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of the results that may be obtained in the future.
