ACCESS MIDSTREAM PARTNERS, L.P. REPORTS FINANCIAL
RESULTS FOR THE 2012 FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR
Partnership Reports 2012 Fourth Quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $119 Million and
Distributable Cash Flow of $82 Million
2012 Full Year Adjusted EBITDA of $478 Million and
Distributable Cash Flow of $340 Million
Partnership Affirms 2013 and 2014 EBITDA Outlook and Capital Program
OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA, February 19, 2013 – Access Midstream Partners, L.P. (NYSE:ACMP) today announced financial results for the 2012 fourth quarter and full year. The Partnership’s adjusted EBITDA for the 2012 fourth quarter was $119.0 million, up $9.0 million, or 8.2%, from 2011 fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA of $110.0 million. The 2012 fourth quarter results do not include any revenue associated with minimum volume commitments (MVC) as compared to $17.4 million of revenue associated with MVC recognized in the 2011 fourth quarter. After eliminating the 2011 MVC impact, the Partnership’s 2012 fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA was up 22.7%. The 2012 fourth quarter net income attributable to the Partnership totaled $24.3 million, a decrease of $42.0 million, or 63.3%, from the 2011 fourth quarter due to interest and depreciation expense related to growth capital investments and transaction costs associated with the CMO acquisition. The 2012 fourth quarter financial results include twelve days of contribution from the assets acquired in the CMO transaction that closed on December 20, 2012.
The Partnership’s 2012 full year adjusted EBITDA was $477.9 million, an increase of $128.4 million, or 36.7%, compared to 2011 full year adjusted EBITDA of $349.5 million. Net income attributable to the Partnership for the 2012 full year was $178.5 million, down $15.8 million, or 8.1%, compared to 2011 full year net income of $194.3 million due to interest and depreciation expense related to growth capital investments and transaction costs associated with the CMO acquisition.
Adjusted distributable cash flow (Adjusted DCF) for the 2012 fourth quarter totaled $82.1 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 3.9%, compared to the 2011 fourth quarter and resulted in a coverage ratio of 0.98. The 2012 fourth quarter coverage ratio was adversely impacted by Partnership equity issued in December to fund the CMO transaction, which will more fully contribute to financial performance starting in 2013. Adjusted DCF for the 2012 full year was $340.1 million and resulted in a full year coverage ratio of 1.23. Financial terms are defined on pages three and four of this release.
Partnership revenue for the 2012 fourth quarter totaled $148.3 million, a decrease of $20.8 million, or 12.3%, compared to 2011 fourth quarter revenue of $169.1 million. After eliminating revenue attributable to MVC in 2011, fourth quarter revenue was down 5.0%. For the 2012 full year, Partnership revenue was $608.4 million, an increase of $42.5 million or 7.5%, compared to 2011 full year revenue of $565.9 million. Revenue for the 2012 fourth quarter and 2012 full year excludes revenue attributable to the Partnership’s Marcellus operations that is accounted for as part of an unconsolidated equity investment.

Throughput for the 2012 fourth quarter totaled 256 billion cubic feet (bcf) of natural gas, or 2.78 bcf per day, an increase of 19.8% from 2011 fourth quarter throughput of 2.32 bcf per day. For the 2012 full year, total throughput was 1,032 bcf of natural gas, or 2.82 bcf per day, an increase of 29.4% from 2011 full year throughput of 2.18 bcf per day. The increase was driven by throughput from gas gathering systems in the Marcellus Shale acquired in December 2011 as well as increased throughput in the Barnett Shale. The Partnership connected 104 new wells to its gathering systems during the 2012 fourth quarter. For the 2012 full year, the Partnership connected 659 wells to its systems, an increase of 8.0% compared to 2011. The Partnership’s operating statistics exclude twelve days of results from the assets acquired in the CMO transaction due to immaterial contribution to 2012 results.
Capital expenditures during the 2012 fourth quarter totaled $212.6 million, including maintenance capital expenditures of $19.7 million. Capital expenditures for the 2012 full year totaled $734.9 million, including maintenance capital expenditures of $75.2 million. Total 2012 fourth quarter and full year capital expenditures include $93.7 million and $384.4 million, respectively, of capital expenditures in entities accounted for as equity investments.
Partnership Completes CMO Acquisition
On December 20, 2012, the Partnership closed its acquisition of Chesapeake Midstream Operating, L.L.C., acquiring natural gas gathering and processing assets in the Eagle Ford, Utica and Niobrara Shale regions and expanding the Partnership’s existing position in both the Haynesville and Marcellus Shale regions. The CMO acquisition provides the Partnership immediate entry to gathering opportunities in key liquids-rich regions and to the processing and fractionation segments of the midstream value chain. At the end of 2012, total gross throughput for these systems was over 1.0 bcf per day.
Partnership Increases Cash Distribution
On January 25, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Partnership’s general partner declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.45 per unit for the 2012 fourth quarter, a $0.06, or 15.4%, increase over the 2011 fourth quarter distribution and a $0.015, or 3.4%, increase over the 2012 third quarter distribution. The distribution was paid on February 13, 2013 to unitholders of record at the close of business on February 6, 2013. DCF of $82.1 million for the 2012 fourth quarter provided distribution coverage of 0.98 times the amount required for the Partnership to fund the distribution to both the general and limited partners.
Outlook for 2013 and 2014 Unchanged
The Partnership is projecting EBITDA for the twelve months ending December 31, 2013 to be between $800 million and $850 million with growth capital expenditures between $1.6 billion and $1.7 billion and maintenance capital expenditures of approximately $110 million. The Partnership is also projecting EBITDA for the twelve months ending December 31, 2014 to be between $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion with growth capital expenditures between $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion and maintenance capital expenditures of approximately $110 million. The growth capital investment program and resulting EBITDA is expected to allow the Partnership to grow LP distributions by approximately 15 percent annually for each of 2013 and 2014.
Management Comments
J. Mike Stice, Access Midstream Partners’ Chief Executive Officer, commented, “With another solid quarter behind us, we are very pleased to announce full year 2012 results achieved previously provided financial guidance. Our low risk business model continues to deliver predictable, growing cash flows for our investors. Now, as we turn our attention to 2013, we have transformed ACMP with the acquisition of a substantial new asset base and the addition of Williams alongside GIP as a general partner sponsor. We are focused on executing our 2013 organic capital plan of over $1.6 billion which will fuel continued strong EBITDA and distribution growth for the Partnership.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted EBITDA, DCF and adjusted DCF. The accompanying schedules provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP measures such as net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of liquidity or financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors should not consider adjusted EBITDA, DCF or adjusted DCF in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Partnership’s results as reported under GAAP. Because these non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, the Partnership’s definition of adjusted EBITDA, DCF and adjusted DCF may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
Adjusted EBITDA. The Partnership agreement defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense and certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:
· | The Partnership’s operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to capital structure, historical cost basis or financing methods; |
· | The Partnership’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; |
· | The ability of the Partnership’s assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to unitholders; and |
· | The viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities. |
Management believes it is appropriate to exclude certain items from EBITDA because management believes these items affect the comparability of operating results. The Partnership believes that the presentation of adjusted EBITDA in this press release provides information useful to investors in assessing its financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA is net income.
Distributable Cash Flow. The Partnership agreement defines DCF as adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Partnership adjusted for:
· | Addition of interest income; |
· | Subtraction of net cash paid for interest expense; |
· | Subtraction of maintenance capital expenditures; and |
· | Subtraction of income taxes. |
Management compares the DCF the Partnership generates to the cash distributions it expects to pay its partners. Using this metric, management computes a distribution coverage ratio. DCF is an important non-GAAP financial measure for our limited partners since it serves as an indicator of our success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this financial measure indicates to investors whether or not the Partnership is generating cash flows at a level that can sustain or support an increase in its quarterly cash distributions. DCF is also a quantitative standard used by the investment community with respect to publicly traded partnerships because the value of a partnership unit is in part measured by its yield, which is based on the amount of cash distributions a partnership can pay to a unitholder. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to DCF is net cash provided by operating activities.
Adjusted Distributable Cash Flow. The Partnership includes the quarterly impact of contractual minimum volume commitments that are not recognized until the fourth quarter of each year in its calculation of adjusted DCF for the purpose of calculating the distribution coverage ratio.

If either Chesapeake Energy Corporation (“Chesapeake”) or Total E&P USA, Inc. (“Total”) does not meet its minimum volume commitment to thePartnership in the Barnett Shale region or Chesapeake does not meet its minimum volume commitment in the Haynesville Shale region under the relevant gas gathering agreement for specified annual periods, Chesapeake or Total is obligated to pay the Partnership a fee equal to the applicable fee for each mcf by which the applicable party’s minimum volume commitment for the year exceeds the actual volumes gathered on the Partnership’s systems. Should payments be due under the minimum volume commitment with respect to any year, the Partnership recognizes the associated revenue in the fourth quarter of that year. The Partnership recognized $17.4 million in the 2011 fourth quarter. No revenue associated with minimum volume commitments was recognized in 2012 as volumes exceeded commitment levels. |
