Exhibit 99.1
Q3 2015 Results Announced for EQT Midstream Partners and EQT GP Holdings
PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 22, 2015--EQT Midstream Partners, LP (NYSE: EQM) and EQT GP Holdings, LP (NYSE: EQGP) today announced third quarter 2015 financial and operating results. EQT Midstream Partners, LP (EQM) net income for the quarter totaled $94.1 million, adjusted EBITDA was $113.4 million, and distributable cash flow was $101.8 million. EQM adjusted operating income was $102.2 million, or 28% higher than the same quarter last year. Net income attributable to EQT GP Holdings, LP (EQGP) for the third quarter totaled $38.1 million. The non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled in the Non-GAAP Disclosures section of this news release.
In December 2013, EQM entered into a capital lease with EQT Corporation (EQT) for its Allegheny Valley Connector facilities (AVC), which includes a 200-mile pipeline regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). EQM operates the AVC and the related revenue and expenses are included in the financial statements; however, the monthly lease payment to EQT offsets the impact on distributable cash flow. As a result, third quarter 2015 operating results are discussed on an adjusted basis, excluding the AVC. Payments due under the lease totaled $3.1 million for the third quarter. The revenue and expenses associated with the AVC are found in the reconciliation table in the Non-GAAP Disclosures section of this news release.
EQM third quarter adjusted operating revenue increased $27.9 million, or 24%, compared to the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in contracted firm transmission and gathering capacity and an increase in gathered volume. Adjusted operating expenses were up $5.4 million versus the third quarter of 2014, consistent with the growth of the business.
QUARTERLY DISTRIBUTION
EQM
For the third quarter of 2015, EQM will pay a quarterly cash distribution of $0.675 per unit. The distribution will be paid on November 13, 2015 to EQM unitholders of record at the close of business on November 2, 2015. The quarterly cash distribution is $0.035 per unit, or 5.5% higher than the second quarter of 2015 and $0.125 per unit or 23% higher than the third quarter of 2014.
EQGP
For the third quarter of 2015, EQGP will pay a quarterly cash distribution of $0.104 per unit. The distribution represents a 13% increase to the equivalent full-quarter distribution for the second quarter 2015. The distribution will be paid on November 23, 2015 to EQGP unitholders of record at the close of business on November 2, 2015. For the quarter, EQGP expects to receive $28.6 million of cash distributions from EQM and will distribute $27.7 million.
GUIDANCE
EQM forecasts full-year 2015 adjusted EBITDA of $440 – $445 million and full-year distributable cash flow of $395 – $400 million. EQM is targeting annual distribution growth of 20% through 2017, which will result in more than 40% annual distribution growth at EQGP over the same time period. The financial and distribution guidance does not include financial impacts of potential acquisitions.
EQM CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
Expansion
Total expansion capital expenditures, including capital contributions to Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC (MVP), totaled $110 million in the third quarter. EQM forecasts 2015 total expansion capital expenditures, including capital contributions to MVP, of approximately $450 – $480 million.
During the third quarter, EQM continued its gathering infrastructure expansion with approximately $52 million in investments related to gathering pipeline and compression projects for EQT and third-party producers. A majority of the investment was related to the Jupiter Gathering System (Jupiter) and the Northern West Virginia Marcellus Gathering System (NWV Gathering). EQM forecasts total gathering related investments of approximately $195 – $205 million in 2015.
EQM invested approximately $21 million in the Ohio Valley Connector (OVC) project during the third quarter. The OVC is estimated to cost $300 million, of which approximately $100 – $110 million is expected to be invested in 2015.
EQM invested $7 million during the quarter in other transmission expansion projects; with a total of approximately $50 million expected for transmission projects in 2015.
During the third quarter, EQM made a capital contribution of $30 million to MVP; and expects total capital contributions to MVP of $105 – $115 million in 2015. EQM expects its investment in MVP to total approximately $1.8 billion based on its 54% ownership in MVP, with a majority of the expenditures occurring in 2017 and 2018 during the construction phase.
Ongoing Maintenance
Ongoing maintenance capital expenditures are cash expenditures made to maintain, over the long-term, EQM operating capacity or operating income. EQM ongoing maintenance capital expenditures, net of expected reimbursements, totaled $5.9 million in the third quarter 2015. EQM forecasts full-year 2015 ongoing maintenance capital expenditures of approximately $20 million.
Project Update
Jupiter Gathering System
EQM recently placed into service two compressor units; one in September and the other in October. Combined, the two compressors increased the firm gathering capacity by 200 MMcf per day, resulting in total firm gathering capacity on Jupiter of 775 MMcf per day. The expansion of Jupiter was completed on schedule as outlined when EQM acquired the gathering system from EQT in April 2014.
Mountain Valley Pipeline
On October 1, 2015, MVP announced that Roanoke Gas Company, an affiliate of RGC Resources, Inc. (RGC), will become a shipper on the pipeline in order to supply and expand its southwest Virginia customer base. In addition, RGC acquired a 1% ownership interest in MVP. EQM will be the operator of the proposed pipeline and holds a 54% majority owner interest in MVP. MVP expects to file a certificate application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission later this month and continues to target an in-service date of Q4 2018.
NON-GAAP DISCLOSURES
EQM Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow
As used in this news release, EQM adjusted EBITDA means EQM’s net income plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and non-cash long-term compensation expense less equity income, other income and capital lease payments. As used in this news release, distributable cash flow means EQM adjusted EBITDA less interest expense, excluding capital lease interest and ongoing maintenance capital expenditures, net of expected reimbursements. Distributable cash flow should not be viewed as indicative of the actual amount of cash that EQM has available for distributions from operating surplus or that EQM plans to distribute. Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures that management and external users of EQM’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, use to assess:
- EQM’s operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of adjusted EBITDA, financing methods;
- the ability of EQM’s assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to EQM unitholders;
- EQM’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
- the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.
EQM believes that adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow provide useful information to investors in assessing EQM’s financial condition and results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, because adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other companies in its industry, EQM’s definition of adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. The table below reconciles adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow with net income and net cash provided by operating activities as derived from the statements of consolidated operations and cash flows to be included in EQM’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

EQM Adjusted Operating Revenues, Adjusted Operating Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Income Before Income Taxes
EQM adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income and adjusted income before income taxes, all of which exclude the impact of the AVC, are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures that are presented because they are important measures used by management to evaluate EQM’s performance. The AVC did not have a net positive or negative impact on EQM’s distributable cash flow. Adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income and adjusted income before income taxes should not be considered as alternatives to operating revenues, operating expenses, operating income or income before income taxes, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income and adjusted income before income taxes with operating revenues, operating expenses, operating income and income before income taxes as derived from the statements of consolidated operations to be included in EQM’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Cautionary Statements
EQM is unable to provide a reconciliation of its projected adjusted EBITDA and projected distributable cash flow to projected net income or projected net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), because of uncertainties associated with projecting future net income and changes in assets and liabilities.
Disclosures in this news release contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
