DALLAS, May 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Summit Midstream
Partners, LP (NYSE: SMLP) today announced financial and operating
results for the three months ended March
31, 2014. SMLP reported adjusted EBITDA of
$46.6 million and adjusted
distributable cash flow of $34.3
million for the first quarter of 2014, an increase of 26.4%
and 5.8%, respectively, over the first quarter of 2013. SMLP
reported $6.4 million of net income
for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $13.9 million for the first quarter of
2013. Volume throughput on SMLP's assets averaged 1,311
million cubic feet per day ("MMcf/d") in the first quarter of 2014,
an increase of 20.3% over 1,090 MMcf/d in the first quarter of
2013.

Steve Newby, President and Chief
Executive Officer of SMLP commented, "SMLP's strong first quarter
2014 financial performance was driven by record system volume
throughput on our diversified asset base and by executing our drop
down strategy, which enables us to mitigate certain risks
associated with development projects at Summit Investments before
offering them to SMLP. During the first quarter of 2014, we
completed a $305 million Red Rock acquisition from Summit Investments,
our second drop down transaction to date."
"The first quarter of 2014 results enabled us to deliver our
sixth consecutive quarterly distribution increase to our
unitholders. In addition to growing our distributions per
unit by 19.0% over the first quarter of 2013, SMLP continues to
focus on maintaining a strong distribution coverage ratio, which
was 1.13x for the first quarter of 2014. Our large inventory
of assets under development at Summit Investments continues to
generate significant new organic development opportunities, which
are expected to provide SMLP with visible distribution growth for
many years to come."
Financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2014
benefitted from SMLP's acquisition of Mountaineer Midstream
Company, LLC ("Mountaineer Midstream"), which was acquired from an
affiliate of MarkWest Energy Partners, L.P. ("MarkWest") in June
2013. Results for Mountaineer Midstream are not included in
SMLP's financial or operational results prior to its acquisition in
June 2013. The first quarter of 2014 also reflects a full
quarter of Bison Midstream, LLC ("Bison Midstream"), which was
acquired from an affiliate of Summit Midstream Partners, LLC
("Summit Investments") in June 2013.
Because of the common control aspects of the June 2013 Bison drop down and the March 2014 Red Rock Gathering Company, LLC
("Red Rock") drop down, these
acquisitions were deemed transactions between entities under common
control and, as such, both have been accounted for on an "as if
pooled" basis for all periods in which common control
existed. As a result, SMLP's financial and operating results
retrospectively include financial and operating results from Bison
Midstream since February 16, 2013,
and from Red Rock since
October 23, 2012, the date that each
was originally acquired by Summit Investments.
Volume throughput averaged 1,311 MMcf/d in the first quarter of
2014 compared to 1,090 MMcf/d in the first quarter of 2013
primarily due to SMLP's acquisition Mountaineer Midstream in
June 2013, and a full quarter of
contribution from Bison Midstream.
Volume throughput on the Mountaineer Midstream system averaged
286 MMcf/d in the first quarter of 2014, up 45.2% over 197 MMcf/d
in the fourth quarter of 2013. Volume throughput increased
throughout the first quarter of 2014 as a result of an active
drilling program by our customer, Antero Resources Corp.
("Antero"). Volumes are expected to continue to grow on this
system throughout the balance of 2014 as Antero volumes continue to
increase and as processing capacity expansions at MarkWest's
Sherwood Processing Complex increase from 600 MMcf/d currently to
1.2 Bcf/d by the second quarter of 2015.
Volume throughput on the Bison Midstream system averaged 12
MMcf/d in the first quarter of 2014, down 14.3% from 14 MMcf/d in
the fourth quarter of 2013. Volume throughput on the Bison
Midstream system was negatively impacted in the first quarter of
2014 by (i) a continuation of severe winter weather in northwestern
North Dakota during the first
quarter of 2014 and (ii) operational challenges caused by water
hydrate issues experienced during the fourth quarter of 2013 and
the first quarter of 2014. During the first quarter of 2014,
SMLP completed operational improvements on the Bison Midstream
system that are expected to remediate the water hydrate issues
going forward.
Volume throughput on the DFW Midstream system averaged 348
MMcf/d in the first quarter of 2014, down 5.9% from the fourth
quarter of 2013 and down 16.9% from the first quarter of
2013. Volume declines resulted from the natural decline of
existing wells, and several customers continuing to temporarily
shut-in several pad sites to drill and/or complete new wells.
SMLP estimates that volume throughput on the DFW Midstream system
was impacted by approximately 10 MMcf/d during the first quarter of
2014. Currently, there are two rigs drilling in the DFW
Midstream service area.
Volume throughput on the Grand River system averaged 665 MMcf/d
in the first quarter of 2014 (including Red Rock), up 3.6% over the 642 MMcf/d in the
fourth quarter of 2013, and consistent with 663 MMcf/d of volume
throughput in the first quarter of 2013. Volume throughput
growth in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the fourth quarter
of 2013 was primarily due to increased volume throughput from
several customers including WPX Energy, Inc., and affiliates of
Black Hills Corporation ("Black Hills") and Ursa Resources Group
II. During the first quarter of 2014, Grand River
commissioned the DeBeque Processing Plant for Black Hills and
immediately began processing liquids rich Mancos gas from wells that Black Hills had
previously drilled and completed.
The Grand River system continues to benefit from its gathering
agreements, which include minimum volume commitments ("MVCs") that
increase annually both in rate and volume commitments over the next
few years, and largely mitigate the financial impact associated
with declining volumes from certain customers. Lower volume
throughput from certain Grand River customers during the first
quarter of 2014 translated into larger MVC shortfall payments,
thereby minimizing the impact on adjusted EBITDA.

2014 SMLP Financial Guidance Reaffirmed
SMLP is reaffirming its 2014 adjusted EBITDA guidance of
$190.0 million to $210.0
million. SMLP continues to expect to pay a
distribution for the fourth quarter of 2014 that is 15.0% to 20.0%
over the $0.48 per unit distribution
paid for the fourth quarter of 2013.
SMLP's 2014 financial guidance excludes the effect of any other
acquisitions or potential drop down transactions from Summit
Investments.
MVC Shortfall Payments
Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2014 was positively
impacted by $13.4 million of
adjustments associated with the MVC mechanisms in SMLP's gathering
agreements. Of the $13.4 million
adjustment, (i) $9.6 million was
related to MVC shortfall payments, and (ii) $3.8 million was related to the change in
deferred revenue.

SMLP billed its customers $5.2
million of MVC shortfall payments in the first quarter of
2014 due to actual volume throughput that was lower than the
minimum volumes that those customers were contractually required to
ship under their gas gathering agreements. Of the quarterly
MVC shortfall payments, $3.8 million
was recorded as deferred revenue on SMLP's balance sheet because
these customers have the ability to use these MVC shortfall
payments to offset gathering fees related to future throughput in
excess of future period MVCs. MVC shortfall payment
adjustments in the first quarter of 2014 totaled $8.2 million and included adjustments related to
future anticipated shortfall payments from certain customers on the
Grand River, Bison Midstream and DFW Midstream systems.
Certain of our gas gathering agreements do not have credit
banking mechanisms and as such, the MVC shortfall payments from
these customers are accounted for as gathering revenue in the
period that it is earned. For the first quarter of 2014, the
Grand River system recognized $0.4
million of gathering revenue associated with MVC shortfall
payments and the Mountaineer Midstream system recognized
$1.0 million of gathering revenue
associated with MVC shortfall payments.
Capital Expenditures
For the three months ended March 31,
2014, SMLP recorded total capital expenditures of
$40.1 million, including
approximately $5.1 million of
maintenance capital expenditures. Development activities
during the first quarter of 2014 were primarily related to the
construction of various pipeline and compressor expansion projects
across the Grand River (including Red
Rock), Bison Midstream, and Mountaineer Midstream systems to
facilitate future expected volume throughput growth.
In March 2014, SMLP commissioned
the DeBeque Processing Plant on the Grand River system. This
project is supported by a long-term, fee-based processing agreement
with Black Hills. SMLP also commissioned a new 150 gallon per
minute natural gas treating facility on the DFW Midstream system in
February 2014, which is currently
running at full capacity. In the Marcellus Shale, SMLP
continued its development of the Zinnia Loop project during the
first quarter of 2014. Upon completion, which is expected in
the third quarter of 2014, the Zinnia Loop project will increase
the Mountaineer Midstream system's delivery capacity to MarkWest's
Sherwood Processing Complex from 550 MMcf/d to 1,050 MMcf/d.
SMLP also continued developing multiple pipeline and compression
projects throughout the Piceance Basin, the Bakken Shale, and the
Barnett Shale to connect new pad sites to SMLP's existing gathering
systems.
Capital & Liquidity
As of March 31, 2014, SMLP had total
liquidity (cash plus undrawn borrowing capacity under its
$700.0 million revolving credit
facility) of $319.4 million.
Based upon the terms of SMLP's revolving credit facility and total
outstanding debt of $691.0 million,
total leverage (net debt divided by EBITDA) was approximately 3.9
to 1 as of March 31, 2014.
Quarterly Distribution
On April 24, 2014, the board of
directors of SMLP's general partner declared a quarterly cash
distribution of $0.50 per unit on all
outstanding common and subordinated units, or $2.00 per unit on an annualized basis, for the
quarter ended March 31, 2014.
This distribution will be paid on May 15,
2014 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on
May 8, 2014.
This was SMLP's sixth consecutive quarterly per unit
distribution increase. It represents an increase of
$0.08 per unit, or 19.0%, over the
distribution paid for the first quarter of 2013 and an increase of
$0.02 per unit, or 4.2%, over the
distribution paid for the fourth quarter of 2013.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report financial results in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We also present EBITDA,
adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow and adjusted distributable
cash flow. We define EBITDA as net income, plus interest expense,
income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense, less
interest income and income tax benefit. We define adjusted
EBITDA as EBITDA plus unit-based compensation, adjustments related
to MVC shortfall payments and loss on asset sales, less gain on
asset sales. We define distributable cash flow as adjusted
EBITDA plus cash interest income, less cash paid for interest
expense and income taxes, senior notes interest expense and
maintenance capital expenditures. We define adjusted distributable
cash flow as distributable cash flow plus or minus other non-cash
or non-recurring expenses or income. Our definitions of these
non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of
similar measures used by other companies. Management uses
these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating
and planning decisions and in evaluating our financial performance.
Furthermore, management believes that these non-GAAP financial
measures may provide users with additional meaningful comparisons
between current results and results of prior periods as they are
expected to be reflective of our core ongoing business. These
measures have limitations, and investors should not consider them
in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as
reported under GAAP. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP
financial measures are attached to this release.

__________
(1) Includes
transaction costs. These unusual and non-recurring expenses
are settled in cash.
|
(2) The amortization
of favorable and unfavorable contracts relates to gas gathering
agreements that were deemed to be above or below market at the
acquisition of the DFW Midstream system. We amortize these
contracts on a units-of-production basis over the life of the
applicable contract. The life of the contract is the period over
which the contract is expected to contribute directly or indirectly
to our future cash flows.
|
(3) Adjustments
related to MVC shortfall payments account for (i) the net increases
or decreases in deferred revenue for MVC shortfall payments and
(ii) our inclusion of future expected annual MVC shortfall
payments.
|
(4) Senior notes
interest expense represents interest expense recognized and accrued
during the period. Interest of 7.50% on the $300.0 million
senior notes is paid in cash semi-annually in arrears on January 1
and July 1 until maturity in July 2021.
|
(5) For the three
months ended March 31, 2014, reflects quarterly cash distributions
of $0.50 per unit in respect of the first quarter of 2014 that will
be paid May 15, 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2013,
reflects quarterly cash distributions of $0.42 per unit in respect
of the first quarter of 2013 that was paid May 15, 2013.
