Williams Reports Third-Quarter 2015 Financial Results
| • | | 3Q 2015 Adjusted EBITDA is $1.1 Billion, Up 21% vs. 3Q 2014 |
| • | | Williams Partners Fee-Based Revenues Up $204 Million or 18% on Contributions from Major New Projects, Access Midstream Growth |
TULSA, Okla. – Williams (NYSE: WMB) today announced third-quarter 2015 adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 billion, compared with $908 million in third quarter 2014, an increase of $195 million, or 21 percent.
Year-to-date 2015, Williams reported $3.04 billion in adjusted EBITDA, a $539 million, or 22 percent increase from the same period last year. The increases in both the quarterly and year-to-date periods were driven primarily by Williams Partners’ adjusted EBITDA, which increased $193 million in the quarter and $633 million year-to-date 2015.

Williams reported adjusted income from continuing operations of $167 million, or $0.22 per share, in third quarter 2015, compared with $157 million, or $0.21 per share, in third quarter 2014. The increase in adjusted income for third quarter 2015 is due primarily to new fee revenue associated with certain growth projects that were placed in service in 2014 and 2015 and olefins margins from the Geismar plant’s return to service. These increases were partially offset by declines in NGL margins driven by lower prices, as well as higher depreciation expense due to significant projects that were placed into service in 2014 and 2015 and increased net interest expense.
1
Year-to-date 2015, Williams reported $399 million in adjusted income from continuing operations, a $106 million decrease from the same period last year. The decrease in year-to-date adjusted income was driven by the absence of assumed Geismar business interruption proceeds in 2015, as well as the same factors that drove the changes in quarterly adjusted income.
Williams reported unaudited third quarter 2015 net loss attributable to Williams of $40 million, or $0.05 per share on a diluted basis, compared with third quarter 2014 net income of $1.678 billion, or $2.22 per share on a diluted basis.
The unfavorable change was primarily the result of the absence of a $2.522 billion pre-tax non-cash re-measurement gain in 2014 related to the consolidation of our previous equity-method investment in Access Midstream Partners as of July 1, 2014, as well as $477 million of pre-tax impairment charges in 2015 associated with certain equity-method investments. These items have been adjusted out of the adjusted income from continuing operations measure previously discussed. The unfavorable change also reflects declines in NGL margins and higher operating, depreciation, general and administrative, and interest expenses partially offset by increased fee-based revenues and higher olefins margins.
Year-to-date 2015, Williams reported net income of $144 million, or $0.19 per share on a diluted basis, compared with net income of $1.921 billion, or $2.68 per share, for the same period last year. The year-to-date decrease in net income was driven primarily by the same factors described above.
CEO Comment
Alan Armstrong, Williams’ president and chief executive officer, made the following comments:
“Our strong third quarter results underscore the effectiveness of our strategy to connect the best natural gas supplies to the best markets with fee-based infrastructure, which accounted for more than 90 percent of our gross margin. Williams Partners achieved record distributable cash flow and delivered adjusted EBITDA growth across four of the partnership’s five operating areas.
“In September, we completed Transco’s Virginia Southside Expansion and we’re on track to place into full service the Leidy Southeast Expansion by the end of the year, helping relieve supply bottlenecks in the Northeast and creating more fee-based revenue. Supply development in the Northeast will continue to be hampered until constraints are addressed. Fortunately, Williams Partners and other industry participants are hard at work implementing projects that will solve this problem.
“We recognize the fundamental pressures impacting our direct commodity margins and volume growth on our gathering and processing systems. However, our unique position and backlog of fully contracted, demand-driven projects will drive our continued operating cash flow growth.”
Business Segment Results

The first and second quarters of 2014 include Williams’ proportional share of the adjusted EBITDA from its equity-method investment in Access Midstream in its Other segment. Following the closing of the merger between Williams Partners and Access Midstream, the consolidated results of Access Midstream for periods after July 1, 2014, are reported as part of the Williams Partners segment. Williams NGL & Petchem Services segment is comprised of projects in various stages of development, including the CNRL Horizon offgas processing project in Canada as well as NGL and petrochemical pipeline projects on the Gulf Coast.
Williams Partners Segment
Williams Partners is focused on natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGL) transportation, gathering, treating, processing and storage; NGL fractionation; olefins production; and crude oil transportation.
Williams Partners reported third quarter 2015 adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 billion, a $193 million, or 21 percent, increase from third quarter 2014. The increase in adjusted EBITDA in third quarter 2015 was driven by $204 million, or 18 percent, higher fee-based revenues. Olefins margins increased $58 million reflecting full production at the expanded Geismar plant in third quarter 2015 at multi-year low per unit ethylene margins, partially offset by lower margins from our Canadian operations. Additionally, the proportional EBITDA from non-consolidated equity investments increased $52 million for third quarter 2015 versus third quarter 2014, due primarily to Discovery’s Keathley Canyon Connector project.
Partially offsetting these increases were $68 million in lower NGL margins due primarily to NGL prices that remain at 10-year lows, as well as $51 million higher operating and general and administrative expenses versus third quarter 2014 primarily reflecting higher costs associated with our growing businesses.
Year-to-date 2015, Williams Partners reported adjusted EBITDA of $3.025 billion, a $633 million, or 26 percent, increase from the same period last year. The year-to-date increase in adjusted EBITDA was driven primarily by consolidation of Access Midstream for all of 2015 versus only the third quarter in 2014.
Williams Partners’ complete financial results for third quarter 2015 are provided in the earnings news release issued today by Williams Partners.

Non-GAAP Measures
This news release may include certain financial measures – adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from continuing operations (“earnings”), adjusted earnings per share – that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our segment performance measure, modified EBITDA, is defined as net income (loss) before income (loss) from discontinued operations, income tax expense, net interest expense, equity earnings from equity-method investments, other net investing income, gain on remeasurement of equity method investment, impairments of equity investments, depreciation and amortization expense, and accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations for nonregulated operations. We also add our proportional ownership share (based on ownership interest) of modified EBITDA of equity investments.
Adjusted EBITDA further excludes items of income or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations and may include assumed business interruption insurance related to the Geismar plant. Management believes these measures provide investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations.
This news release is accompanied by a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP financial measures. Management uses these financial measures because they are accepted financial indicators used by investors to compare company performance. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of the Company’s assets and the cash that the business is generating.
Neither adjusted EBITDA nor adjusted income from continuing operations are intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor are they presented as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
