Hi-Crush Partners LP Reports Second Quarter 2013 Results

Houston, Texas, August 14, 2013 - Hi-Crush Partners LP (NYSE: HCLP), “Hi-Crush” or the “Partnership”, today reported net income of $14.7 million, or $0.53 per limited partner unit, for the second quarter of 2013. Second quarter results include a net income contribution of $0.7 million, or $0.025 per limited partner unit, for D&I for the period beginning June 11, 2013, when Hi-Crush completed the D&I transaction, and ending June 30, 2013.

Overview of Financial Results

“The second quarter was marked by trends that were favorable to Hi-Crush,” said Robert Rasmus, Co-Chief Executive Officer of
Hi-Crush. “Not only did we see an extension of positive trends from the first quarter, including rising proppant intensity and a move towards 24-hour operations, but we also saw striking results from producers in the Marcellus and encouraging well results from producers in the Utica. Our acquisition of D&I was timely, and we see trends that will continue to propel demand in the near-term.”

Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 totaled $27.1 million and reflects an average selling price in line with projections.
Hi-Crush sold 358,162 tons of frac sand produced from the Wyeville facility for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. D&I contributed an additional 56,473 tons in frac sand sales for the period beginning June 11, 2013 and ending June 30, 2013. For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, distributable cash flow was $15.6 million and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) was $16.4 million.

“Our customers met or exceeded their contract terms in the second quarter, and volumes were trending up throughout the quarter as we transferred contracted tons from Augusta and our customers took advantage of beneficial pricing,” said James Whipkey, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Hi-Crush. “This, combined with our sales under spot arrangements, resulted in our Wyeville plant operating at almost full capacity for the quarter and achieving record levels of production in the month of June. With D&I now integrated into Hi-Crush, we see many opportunities ahead to increase volumes across our consolidated company.”

On July 17, 2013, Hi-Crush declared its second quarter cash distribution of $0.475 per unit for all common and subordinated units. This amount corresponds to the minimum quarterly cash distribution of $0.475 per unit, or $1.90 on an annualized basis and will be paid on August 15, 2013 to all common and subordinated unitholders of record on August 1, 2013.

(1) Maintenance and replacement capital expenditures, including accrual for reserve replacement, were determined based on an estimated reserve replacement cost of $1.35 per ton sold during the period. Such expenditures include those associated with the replacement of equipment and sand reserves, to the extent that such expenditures are made to maintain our long-term operating capacity. The amount presented does not represent an actual reserve account or requirement to spend the capital.

(2) The amount pertains to the second quarter performance of Augusta, on which we are entitled to receive a preferred distribution of $3,750. We have included this amount in our distributable cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as we received this distribution on August 9, 2013, in advance of our second quarter 2013 cash distributions to our common and subordinated unitholders, which will be paid on August 15, 2013. The amount is not reflected in our GAAP net income because our investment in Augusta is accounted for under the cost method. In accordance with that method, any distributions earned under our preferred interest are not recognized as income until the cash is actually received by the Partnership.
