Regency Energy Partners Reports Second-Quarter 2009 Results
DALLAS, August 10, 2009 – Regency Energy Partners LP (Nasdaq: RGNC), (“Regency” or the “Partnership”), announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Including the 62% interest in the Regency Intrastate Gas System (“RIGS”) owned by third parties, Regency’s combined adjusted EBITDA was $56 million in the second quarter 2009, compared to $55 million in the first quarter 2009 and $71 million in the second quarter 2008. Combined adjusted total segment margin was $106 million in the second quarter 2009, compared to $106 million in the first quarter 2009 and $118 million in the second quarter 2008.
Regency generated net income of $6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $148 million in the first quarter 2009 and $10 million in the second quarter 2008. Net income in the first quarter 2009 included a one-time gain of $133 million, primarily associated with the contribution of RIGS to the Haynesville Joint Venture.
“Regency’s second-quarter 2009 performance was in line with our expectations, driven by solid results from our majority fee-based asset portfolio and emphasis on expense management,” said Byron Kelley, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Regency. “Our ability to close a $250-million senior notes offering during the quarter has put us in a strong liquidity position and demonstrated our ability to access the capital markets.”
“I am also pleased to report that construction of the Haynesville Expansion Project in North Louisiana is on budget and on schedule to meet the planned in-service date of December 31, 2009,” Kelley said. “More than half of the 36-inch pipe construction is complete, and construction of the 42-inch pipe began in late June. We continue to be encouraged by the increased producer activity and rig counts, as well as the favorable well results in the Haynesville Shale. Due to existing producer demand, we are evaluating additional expansions to the RIGS system.”
REVIEW OF SEGMENT PERFORMANCE
With the completion of the Haynesville Joint Venture, the Partnership realigned the composition of its business segments and has restated all segment information. The Haynesville Joint Venture is a general partnership formed in March 2009 that owns RIGS. Regency owns a 38% partnership interest in the Haynesville Joint Venture.
Gathering & Processing - The Gathering & Processing segment includes Regency's natural gas processing and treating plants, low-pressure gathering pipelines and NGL pipeline activities. In addition, the Partnership now reports its producer services revenue in this segment.
Adjusted segment margin for Gathering & Processing, which excludes non-cash hedging gains and losses related to this segment, was $56 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to $55 million in the first quarter 2009.
Total throughput volumes for the Gathering & Processing segment averaged approximately 985 thousand MMbtu per day of natural gas in the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to 1,039 thousand MMbtu per day of natural gas in the first quarter 2009. Processed NGLs remained flat from the first quarter to the second quarter 2009 at 22 thousand barrels per day.
Transportation - Following the closing of the Haynesville Joint Venture, Regency’s Transportation segment consists exclusively of its interest in the Haynesville Joint Venture. Prior periods have been restated to reflect the Partnership’s wholly owned subsidiary of RIGS as the exclusive reporting unit within this segment.
Segment margin for the Transportation segment was $160 thousand in the second quarter 2009, compared to $12 million in the first quarter 2009. The change in segment margin is due to the contribution of RIGS to the Haynesville Joint Venture in the first quarter 2009.
For quarterly comparisons of the Transportation segment, Regency is also providing segment information inclusive of the Haynesville Joint Venture’s segment margin. Combined transportation segment margin decreased slightly quarter-over-quarter, from $14 million in the first quarter 2009 to $13 million in the second quarter 2009. Total combined transportation throughput volumes averaged 745 thousand MMbtu per day of natural gas in the second quarter 2009 compared to 811 thousand MMbtu per day of natural gas in the first three months of 2009.
Contract Compression - The Contract Compression segment provides customers with turnkey natural gas compression services to maximize natural gas and crude oil production, throughput and cash flow. Regency's integrated solutions include a comprehensive assessment of a customer's natural gas contract compression needs and the design and installation of a customized compression system.
Segment margin for the Contract Compression segment was $36 million in the second quarter 2009, compared to $37 million in the first quarter 2009. Regency’s revenue generating horsepower at the end of the second quarter 2009 was 767 thousand compared to 789 thousand of revenue generating horsepower at the end of the first quarter 2009.
Corporate and Others – The Corporate and Others segment is primarily comprised of an interstate pipeline and the Partnership’s corporate offices. Revenues in this segment are derived from the operations of an interstate pipeline, which prior to the realignment of the business segments was reported within the Transportation segment, as well as partial reimbursements of general and administrative costs from the Haynesville Joint Venture. Segment margin in the second quarter 2009 was $3 million compared to $1 million in the first quarter 2009.
CASH DISTRIBUTIONS
On July 28, 2009, Regency announced a cash distribution of 44.5 cents per outstanding common unit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009. This distribution is equivalent to $1.78 on an annual basis and will be paid August 14, 2009, to unitholders of record at the close of business on August 7, 2009.
In the second quarter 2009, Regency generated $31 million in cash available for distribution, representing coverage of 0.82 times the amount required to cover its announced distribution to common unitholders.
“Regency anticipated a temporary drop below a 1.0 times coverage ratio during the construction of the Haynesville Expansion Project,” said Kelley. “Despite this shortfall, we intend to maintain the current distribution level through the end of 2009. We expect coverage levels to recover in 2010, after the Haynesville project comes on-line.”
Regency makes distribution determinations based on its cash available for distribution and the perceived sustainability of distribution levels over an extended period. In addition to considering the cash available for distribution generated during the quarter, Regency takes into account cash reserves established with respect to prior distributions, seasonality of results, and its internal forecasts of adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution over an extended period. Although Regency intends to maintain the current distribution of 44.5 cents per outstanding common unit through 2009, distributions are set by the Board of Directors and are driven by the long-term sustainability of the business.
2009 ORGANIC GROWTH PROJECTS
Regency’s 2009 growth capital budget of $107 million includes approximately $82 million dedicated to the Contract Compression segment and $25 million identified for the Gathering & Processing segment. All capital expenditures related to the Haynesville Expansion Project have been excluded because those costs are funded by the Haynesville Joint Venture.
In the six months ended June 30, 2009, Regency incurred $81 million of growth capital expenditures, of which $63 million was related to the fabrication of new compression packages and ancillary assets for the Contract Compression segment. In addition, $18 million was spent on various projects in the Gathering & Processing segment.
MANAGEMENT ANNOUNCEMENTS
Regency announced today the resignation of Randall H. Dean as president and chief executive of CDM Resource Management LLC, Regency’s Contract Compression segment.
“Randy has been on partial leave of absence for a number of months recuperating from surgery and is doing well,” said Kelley. “Randy has informed the company that he will need an extended period of time to meet his full health objectives, and both he and the company believe it is in our best interest to implement a modified working arrangement. Accordingly, effective the end of August 2009, Randy has elected to resign from his full-time role with Regency but will continue to support the company through an on-going consulting agreement.”
“We thank Randy for his dedication to the growth and success of Regency’s contract compression business,” Kelley continued. “We look forward to his continued contributions to Regency, while wishing him the best as he focuses on his health objectives.”
David Marrs, who together with Dean and Randy Craft founded CDM in 1997, and who served as executive vice president of Regency’s Contract Compression segment since January 2008, will assume the role of president of the Contract Compression segment. Since co-founding CDM, Marrs has served in various management roles. Prior to co-founding CDM, he was employed by Contract Compression Inc., where he served as manager of business development. Marrs holds a bachelor of science degree from the University of Houston.
“I have worked closely with David over the past year, and I am extremely pleased to have an experienced industry veteran and one of the original founders of CDM ready to assume the leadership of this segment for our business,” said Kelley.
Regency also announced today that the Board of Directors of Regency has elected Patrick Giroir as executive vice president and chief commercial officer of its Gathering & Processing and Transportation segments. Giroir previously served as senior vice president and chief commercial officer of these segments.
“Pat’s background in strategic and commercial roles will be of great value as he continues to run all of the commercial activities for these segments,” said Kelley. “The elevation of this position to an executive vice president level is appropriate for a company of our size and is recognition of his strong contribution to the success of Regency.”

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
This press release and the accompanying financial schedules include the non-generally accepted accounting principles ("non-GAAP") financial measures of:
· EBITDA, |
· adjusted EBITDA, |
· cash available for distribution, |
· segment margin, |
· total segment margin, |
· adjusted segment margin, and |
· adjusted total segment margin. |
These financial metrics are key measures of the Partnership’s financial performance. The accompanying schedules provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income, operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance, liquidity or ability to service debt obligations.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization expense and income tax expense (benefit).
We define adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus non-cash loss (gain) from risk management activities, loss (gain) on asset sales, net and other (income) expense.
Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental performance measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to assess:
-- financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis, |
|
-- the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support our indebtedness and make cash distributions to our unitholders and general partner; |
|
-- our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing methods or capital structure; and |
|
-- the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. |
Our adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.
We define cash available for distribution as:
· adjusted EBITDA |
· minus interest expense, excluding capitalized interest, |
· minus maintenance capital expenditures, |
· minus (plus) income tax expense (benefit), |
· plus non-cash unit-based compensation expense related to our Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”), |
· plus proportionate share of Haynesville Joint Venture adjusted EBITDA, and |
· plus cash proceeds from asset sales, if any. |
Cash available for distribution is used as a supplemental liquidity measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to approximate the amount of operating surplus generated by the Partnership during a specific period and to assess our ability to make cash distributions to our unitholders and our general partner. Cash available for distribution is not the same measure as operating surplus or available cash, both of which are defined in our partnership agreement.
We define segment margin, generally, as revenues minus cost of sales. We calculate our Gathering & Processing segment margin as our revenue generated from our gathering and processing operations minus the cost of natural gas and NGLs purchased and other cost of sales, including third-party transportation and processing fees.
Prior to our contribution of RIGS to the Haynesville Joint Venture, we calculated our Transportation segment margin as revenue generated by fee income as well as, in those instances in which we purchase and sell gas for our account, gas sales revenue minus the cost of natural gas that we purchase and transport. After our contribution of RIGS to the Haynesville Joint Venture, we do not record segment margin for the Transportation segment because the income attributable to the Joint Venture is recorded as income from unconsolidated subsidiary.
We calculate our Contract Compression segment margin as our revenues generated from our contract compression operations minus the direct costs, primarily compressor unit repairs, associated with those revenues.
We define total segment margin as net income plus or minus operation and maintenance, general and administrative, loss (gain) on asset sales, net, depreciation and amortization, income from unconsolidated subsidiary, interest expense, net, other income and deductions, net and income tax expense (benefit).
We define adjusted segment margin for our Gathering & Processing segment as Gathering & Processing segment margin adjusted for non-cash gains (losses) from risk management activities. Adjusted segment margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary performance measure used by management as it represents the results of product purchases and sales, a key component of our operations.
We define adjusted total segment margin as total segment margin adjusted for non-cash gains (losses) from risk management activities. Our adjusted total segment margin equals the sum of our operating segments’ adjusted segment margins or segment margins, including intersegment eliminations.
Our segment margin measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other entities may not calculate segment margin amounts in the same manner.
For quarterly comparison purposes only we have also used the following non-GAAP financial measures related to the Haynesville Joint Venture:
· Combined adjusted EBITDA, |
· Combined Transportation segment margin, |
· Combined adjusted total segment margin, and |
· HPC margin |
We define combined adjusted EBITDA as adjusted EBITDA, plus Regency’s 38% of Haynesville Joint Venture adjusted EBITDA plus 62% of Haynesville Joint Venture adjusted EBITDA owned by third parties.
We define combined Transportation segment margin as Transportation segment margin plus the Haynesville Joint Venture’s segment margin.
We define combined adjusted total segment margin as adjusted total segment margin plus the Haynesville Joint Venture’s segment margin.
We define HPC margin as Haynesville Joint Venture’s net income plus or minus operation and maintenance, general and administrative, gain or loss on asset sales, net, depreciation and amortization, and other income and deductions, net.
