Third-Quarter 2016 Financial Results
Williams reported third-quarter 2016 unaudited net income of $61 million, a $101 million increase from third-quarter 2015 net income. The favorable change was driven by the absence of $461 million of impairments of equity-method investments recognized in 2015. The improvement also reflected higher olefins margins at our Geismar plant, lower operating and maintenance expenses, and higher service revenues associated with expansion projects, partially offset by a $65 million additional loss upon completing the sale of our Canadian operations, higher interest expense, and expensed project development costs.
Year-to-date Williams reported an unaudited net loss of ($409) million, a $553 million decrease from the same time period in 2015. The unfavorable change was driven by increased impairment charges and the additional loss on sale associated with our Canadian operations, the absence of $126 million of insurance recoveries, expensed project development costs and higher interest incurred. The decrease also includes an unfavorable change in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests driven primarily by the impact of reduced incentive distributions from WPZ associated with the termination of the WPZ Merger Agreement as well as higher WPZ income. These declines were partially offset by the favorable impact of lower impairments of equity-method investments, an increase in olefins margins associated with our Geismar plant, decreases in operating and maintenance expenses, and higher equity earnings.
Williams reported third-quarter 2016 Adjusted EBITDA of $1.192 billion, an $89 million increase over third-quarter 2015. The improvement is due primarily to an $89 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA from the Williams Partners segment and an $8 million increase in the Other segment, partially offset by an $8 million decrease for the Williams NGL & Petchem segment.
Year-to-date, Williams reported Adjusted EBITDA of $3.313 billion, an increase of $275 million over the same period in 2015. The improvement is due primarily to a $289 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA from the Williams Partners segment and a $12 million increase in the Other segment, partially offset by a $26 million decrease at the Williams NGL & Petchem Services segment.
During third-quarter 2016, Williams reported Cash Available for Dividends and Other Uses of $441 million and received $220 million for its share of proceeds related to the sale of its Canadian assets.
During third-quarter 2016, Williams reduced borrowing on its credit facility by $265 million, reinvested $250 million via a private placement to purchase WPZ common units pursuant to its previously announced plans, and paid a cash dividend to shareholders totaling $150 million.
CEO Perspective
Alan Armstrong, Williams’ president and chief executive officer, made the following comments:
“With Adjusted EBITDA growth across all five of the partnership’s operating areas and increased distributable cash flow achieved by Williams Partners, our strong third-quarter results highlighted once again the effectiveness of our strategy and how well-positioned we are to capture natural gas demand growth now and in the future.
“Our recent accomplishments reflect disciplined execution against our business plan. The new Kodiak, Gunflint and Rock Springs facilities all contributed to our growth in the third quarter. Despite the expanding number of major projects recently placed in-service, we reduced expenses on a year-to-date basis. We also completed win-win contract renegotiations with our customer Chesapeake and completed the sale of our Canadian businesses as we continue to take decisive actions to position our company for predictable growth.
“Our future growth is also visible in the number of projects now under construction. After receiving the necessary permits to begin construction, we began work in the third quarter on Dalton, Virginia Southside II and Phase 1 of Hillabee. Construction on our New York Bay Expansion project began this month while construction also continues on our Gulf Trace project. We are aiming to place all of these Transco-expansion projects into service next year.
“We are also excited to have the additional expertise and contributions of five new, independent energy-industry veterans on the Williams Board of Directors.”

Definitions of modified EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and schedules reconciling to net income are included in this news release.
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 production.
Williams Partners reported third-quarter 2016 Modified EBITDA of $1.07 billion, an increase of $49 million from third-quarter 2015. Adjusted EBITDA increased $89 million to $1.189 billion. The increase in Modified EBITDA was due primarily to $33 million higher olefins margins, $32 million higher fee-based revenues and $21 million lower operating and maintenance and selling, general, and administrative expenses. The 2016 period also included a $32 million additional loss associated with the completion of the sale of our Canadian operations and expensed project development costs, both of which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.
Year-to-date, Williams Partners reported Modified EBITDA of $2.629 billion, a decrease of $262 million over the same period in 2015. Adjusted EBITDA increased $289 million to $3.314 billion. The decrease in Modified EBITDA occurred primarily due to a $341 million impairment charge associated with the partnership’s held-for-sale Canadian operations, the absence in 2016 of $126 million in business interruption proceeds from the 2013 Geismar Olefins plant incident that were recorded in second-quarter 2015 and a $48 million impairment charge related to a gathering system. These were partially offset by higher olefins margins reflecting a full nine months of production at the Geismar Olefins plant, $101 million lower operating and maintenance and selling, general, and administrative expenses, $70 million higher joint-venture EBITDA primarily from Discovery and $65 million higher fee-based revenues. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impairment charges and insurance proceeds described above.
Williams Partners’ complete financial results for third-quarter 2016 are provided in the earnings news release issued today by Williams Partners.
Williams NGL & Petchem Services
This segment currently includes petchem pipeline projects on the Gulf Coast. Prior to the sale of all of our Canadian-based assets effective Sept. 23, 2016, this segment also included an offgas processing plant in Canada at CNRL’s Horizon upgrader that went into service in first-quarter 2016. The segment also included a propane dehydrogenation facility growth project under development in Canada.
Williams NGL & Petchem Services reported third-quarter 2016 Modified EBITDA of ($62) million, a decrease of $57 million from third quarter 2015. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $8 million to ($13) million. The decrease in Modified EBITDA is due primarily to a $33 million additional loss associated with the completion of the sale of our Canadian operations and $16 million of Canadian project-development costs, both of which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.
Year-to-date, Williams NGL & Petchem Services reported Modified EBITDA of ($529) million, a decrease of $516 million over the same time period in 2015. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $26 million to ($39) million. The decrease in Modified EBITDA is due primarily to a $406 million impairment of our Canadian operations, a $33 million additional loss associated with the completion of the sale of our Canadian operations and $61 million of Canadian project-development costs all of which are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.
Williams Partners Provides Revised 2017 Growth Capital Guidance Related Primarily to Atlantic Sunrise Project Timing
Williams Partners is revising its 2017 growth capital guidance amounts due primarily to the shift in Transco and related Northeast G&P growth spending caused by the revised Atlantic Sunrise in-service date, as well as new projects and other changes. As discussed in its press release dated Oct. 28, 2016, Williams Partners expects partial Atlantic Sunrise service to
3
begin during the second half of 2017 and is now targeting full in-service during mid-2018. Consistent with prior financial practice, Williams Partners’ financial plan further risks these project cash flows by approximately six months. The following guidance range represents both the targeted in-service date and the further risked in-service date: total 2017 growth capital and investment expenditures are expected to be between $2.1 billion and $2.8 billion, including total 2017 growth capital for Transco, which is expected to be between $1.4 billion and $1.9 billion.
Third-Quarter 2016 Materials to be Posted Shortly; Q&A Webcast Scheduled for This Morning
Williams’ third-quarter 2016 financial results package will be posted shortly atwww.williams.com. The package will include the data book and analyst package.
Williams and Williams Partners plan to jointly host a Q&A live webcast today, (Oct. 31), at 9:30 a.m. EDT. A limited number of phone lines will be available at (888) 364-3105. International callers should dial (719) 325-2228. The conference ID is 6961753.

Form 10-Q
The company plans to file its third-quarter 2016 Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission this week. Once filed, the document will be available on both the SEC and Williams’ websites.
Non-GAAP Measures
This news release may include certain financial measures – adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income (“earnings”), adjusted earnings per share, cash available for dividends, and dividend coverage ratio – 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, impairments of equity investments and goodwill, 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-method 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.
Cash available for dividends and other uses is defined as cash received from our ownership in MLPs, cash received (used) by the Williams NGL & Petchem Services segment (other than cash for capital expenditures) less interest, taxes and maintenance capital expenditures associated with Williams and not the underlying MLPs. We also calculate the ratio of cash available for dividends to the total cash dividends paid (dividend coverage ratio). This measure reflects our cash available for dividends relative to actual cash dividends paid.
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, adjusted income, or cash available for dividends and other uses 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.
