EnLink Midstream Reports First Quarter 2019 Results and Announces Accelerated, Capital-Efficient Growth in the Permian Basin
DALLAS, April 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- EnLink Midstream, LLC (NYSE: ENLC) (EnLink or ENLC) reported financial results for the first quarter of 2019 and announced accelerated, capital-efficient growth plans in the Permian Basin. EnLink also updated and reaffirmed certain full-year 2019 company-level financial guidance measures.
First Quarter 2019 Highlights
-- Reported a net loss solely due to a goodwill impairment resulting from
the close of the corporate simplification transaction. Excluding the
goodwill impact, net income was in line with expectations.
-- Delivered adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, and distribution
coverage results ahead of company and the Street expectations, driven by
the company's diversified midstream platform and execution of highly
accretive growth projects. Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow
are non-GAAP measures and are explained in greater detail under
"Non-GAAP Financial Information and Certain Definitions."
-- Accelerated growth plans in the Permian's Delaware Basin with the
planned construction of a new, 200 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d)
natural gas processing plant in response to increased production
estimates by a key producer customer.
-- Signed two new commercial contracts for onloading natural gas processing
volumes in the Permian's Midland Basin, which support the expansion of
EnLink's Riptide facility by 65 MMcf/d, at a growth capital expenditure
estimate of approximately $8 million.
-- Placed Cajun-Sibon III natural gas liquids (NGL) pipeline expansion and
Lobo III natural gas processing plant expansion into service, in line
with expectations.
-- Maintained estimated overall net company growth capital expenditures
guidance in the range announced on February 19, 2019.
-- Declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.279 per unit on all
outstanding common units, which represents approximately 6% growth from
the prior quarter on an annualized basis.
"EnLink continues to execute well on our long-term strategic plan, and we are very pleased with the strong, diversified cash flows generated by our differentiated midstream platform," said Michael J. Garberding, EnLink President and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to grow our strategic asset positions by putting highly efficient capital to work. Our long-term growth outlook remains robust, with an exciting runway of high-return projects to bring on line, and we remain committed to creating and returning value to our stakeholders with a focus on capital allocation."
First Quarter 2019 Financial Results
-- Reported a net loss of $176 million, which included the recognition of a
$187 million non-cash charge related to goodwill that was created at the
formation of EnLink in 2014. This non-cash charge occurred because of
the simplification transaction that closed on January 25, 2019.
-- Achieved adjusted EBITDA net to ENLC of $268 million, which exceeded
company and the Street expectations.
-- Reported net cash provided by operating activities of $264 million.
-- Achieved distributable cash flow of $185 million, which exceeded company
and the Street expectations.
-- Distribution coverage was 1.35x, which exceeded company and the Street
expectations.
-- Debt-to-adjusted EBITDA, as calculated under the terms of EnLink's
credit facility, was 3.7x, in line with company expectations.
-- Growth capital expenditures, net to EnLink, were approximately $220
million, which was consistent with company expectations, as most major
capital projects will be operational during the first half of the year.
-- As of April 25, 2019, ENLC had 487,170,379 common units outstanding.
Accelerated Growth in the Permian Basin and Related Asset Expansions
-- EnLink continues to have success with building scale in the Delaware
Basin and is accelerating expectations for natural gas gathering and
processing volume growth as a result of the company's longstanding
relationship in the region with XTO, a subsidiary of Exxon Mobil. XTO is
one of the most active operators in the Permian Basin, and its recent
production estimates were significantly upgraded. EnLink now forecasts
that its Lobo natural gas processing complex will near full utilization
sooner than expected, with the need for additional capacity during 2020.
EnLink plans to construct a new, 200 MMcf/d natural gas processing plant
in the Delaware Basin, which is expected to be operational during 2020,
to support XTO's incremental growth.
-- This project will be included in EnLink's Delaware Basin Joint Venture,
of which EnLink owns a 50.1% interest. The project is forecasted to have
an adjusted EBITDA return multiple in the 5-to-6 times range. Growth
capital expenditures, net to EnLink, related to the plant expansion and
related infrastructure are expected to be approximately $120 million,
with approximately $60 million forecasted to be spent during 2019.
-- EnLink recently signed two contracts in the Midland Basin to onload
additional natural gas processing volumes, commencing in the second
quarter of 2019. These contracts underpin EnLink's low-cost expansion of
its Riptide facility in the Midland Basin, which is expected to be
operational during the fourth quarter of 2019. Riptide's current
processing capacity of 100 MMcf/d will be expanded by 65 MMcf/d, for a
total processing capacity of 165 MMcf/d once the expansion is complete.
The growth capital expenditures associated with the expansion are
expected to be approximately $8 million, with a highly accretive project
adjusted EBITDA multiple forecasted to be in the 1-to-2 times range.
Full-Year 2019 Financial and Operational Guidance Update
-- EnLink reaffirms company-level financial 2019 guidance ranges presented
in materials released on February 19, 2019, with an adjustment to
reflect the impact of a non-cash goodwill charge associated with the
recently closed corporate simplification transaction.
-- Net income is projected to range from $18 million to $28 million for
full-year 2019, revised downward from the previous guidance range of
$205 million to $215 million because of the recognition of a non-cash
charge during the three months ended March 31, 2019, related to goodwill
that was created at the formation of EnLink in 2014. This non-cash
charge occurred because of the simplification transaction, which closed
on January 25, 2019. Excluding the non-cash charge impact, net income
expectations would be consistent with original guidance.
-- Growth capital expenditures, net to EnLink, continue to be projected to
range from $565 million to $725 million. EnLink expects the net
incremental growth capital expenditures in the Permian Basin related to
new project announcements to be primarily offset by reduced growth
capital expenditures in other segments.
First Quarter 2019 Segment Updates
Oklahoma:
-- EnLink's Oklahoma segment reported strong growth in segment profit year
over year. Segment profit for the first quarter of 2019, as compared to
the first quarter of 2018, increased by approximately 15%. All segment
information for the first quarter of 2018 has been recast to conform to
the presentation of the four operating segments, which became effective
on January 1, 2019.
-- The Oklahoma segment also experienced natural gas volume growth year
over year, with the first quarter of 2019 gas gathering, transportation,
and processing volumes increasing over 15% from the first quarter of
2018.
-- Growth in average natural gas gathering, transportation, and processing
volumes for 2019 full-year as compared to 2018 full-year actual results
is forecasted to be in the range of 10% to 15%. A few of EnLink's key
producer customers continue to transition and evolve their drilling and
completion strategies, which has led EnLink to revise near-term volume
growth expectations. EnLink remains confident in the STACK's position as
a top tier growth play and the long-term growth profile of EnLink's
leading asset platform in the basin.
-- Crude gathering volumes in the first quarter of 2019 also increased
significantly year over year, over 200% from the first quarter 2018, due
to the ramping of the company's crude gathering business in the STACK.
-- Construction of EnLink's previously announced Thunderbird processing
plant is progressing well and remains on track to be operational during
the second quarter of 2019. Once operational, Thunderbird will increase
EnLink's gas processing capacity in Central Oklahoma by 200 MMcf/d,
bringing EnLink's total gas processing capacity in the region to over
1.2 billion cubic feet per day. EnLink's ongoing development in Central
Oklahoma reinforces its position as one of the largest and most
cost-efficient providers of natural gas processing in the STACK. EnLink
continues to work closely with its producer customers as they continue
to transition towards full field development of their acreage in the
STACK.
Permian Basin:
-- EnLink's Permian Basin segment reported strong segment profit growth
during the first quarter of 2019, as compared to the first quarter of
2018, with segment profit increasing more than 100% year over year.
-- Natural gas volume activity also experienced solid growth during the
first quarter of 2019, as compared to the first quarter of 2018, with
average gathering, transportation, and processing volumes increasing
more than 50% year over year.
-- Average crude gathering volumes continued to increase during the first
quarter of 2019, as compared to the first quarter of 2018, with
approximately 37% growth experienced year over year.
Louisiana:
-- Segment profit contribution from the Louisiana segment for the first
quarter of 2019, as compared to the first quarter of 2018, was solid, as
volume activity strengthened in most areas of operations.
-- The integrated NGL network continues to benefit from strong liquids
output related to EnLink's growing STACK and Permian operations. Average
NGL volumes on EnLink's system increased by approximately 10% in the
first quarter of 2019, as compared to the first quarter of 2018.
-- Cajun-Sibon III went into service during the second quarter of 2019,
expanding EnLink's ability to transport liquids from the Mont Belvieu
NGL hub region to EnLink's fractionation facilities in Louisiana.
Cajun-Sibon III expands EnLink's NGL transport capacity to approximately
185,000 barrels per day. The expansion is expected to generate an
average annual adjusted EBITDA multiple of 2 to 3 times, with growth
capital expenditures totaling approximately $50 million.
-- EnLink experienced solid natural gas volume activity on its Louisiana
system during the first quarter of 2019, as compared to the first
quarter of 2018, with natural gas processing volumes increasing by
approximately 6% due to incremental opportunity processing events.
Natural gas gathering and transportation volumes were down by
approximately 7% during the first quarter of 2019, as compared to the
first quarter of 2018, which was in line with expectations.
-- Average crude volumes handled in EnLink's Ohio River Valley operations
increased during the first quarter of 2019, as compared to the first
quarter of 2018, by approximately 25%, due to improved producer activity
in the region.
North Texas:
-- Segment profit declined by approximately 16% for the first quarter of
2019, as compared to the first quarter of 2018, in line with company
expectations, because of the expiration of minimum volume commitments
with Devon Energy Corp. on December 31, 2018.
-- Average natural gas volume decline for the first quarter of 2019, as
compared to the first quarter of 2018, was between 3% and 5% for
gathering, transportation, and processing volumes.

Non-GAAP Financial Information and Other Definitions
This press release contains non-generally accepted accounting principles financial measures that we refer to as adjusted EBITDA, and distributable cash flow available to common unitholders (distributable cash flow). We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, impairments, unit-based compensation, (gain) loss on non-cash derivatives, (gain) loss on disposition of assets, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, successful transaction costs (if any), accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations, non-cash rent, and distributions from unconsolidated affiliate investments less payments under onerous performance obligations, non-controlling interest, income (loss) from unconsolidated affiliate investments and non-cash revenue from contract restructuring. We define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA (defined above, net to ENLC), less interest expense, interest rate swaps, current income taxes and other non-distributable cash flows, accrued cash distributions on EnLink Midstream Partners, LP's (ENLK) Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Units (the "ENLK Series B Preferred Units") and ENLK's Series C Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (the "ENLK Series C Preferred Units") paid or expected to be paid, and maintenance capital expenditures, excluding maintenance capital expenditures that were contributed by other entities and relate to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated entities.
Distribution coverage is calculated by dividing distributable cash flow by distributions declared to common unitholders.
Growth capital expenditures generally include capital expenditures made for acquisitions or capital improvements that we expect will increase our asset base, operating income or operating capacity over the long-term. Maintenance capital expenditures generally include capital expenditures made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets in order to maintain the existing operating capacity of the assets and to extend their useful lives.
EnLink believes these measures are useful to investors because they may provide users of this financial information with meaningful comparisons between current results and previously-reported results and a meaningful measure of the company's cash flow after it has satisfied the capital and related requirements of its operations. In addition, adjusted EBITDA achievement is a primary metric used in our short-term incentive program for compensating employees.
Segment profit (loss) is defined as operating income (loss) plus general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, (gain) loss on disposition of assets, impairments, and (gain) loss on litigation settlement. Segment profit (loss) includes non-cash compensation expenses reflected in operating expenses. See "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 15 - Segment Information" in ENLC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and, when available, "Item 1. Financial Statements - Note 14-Segment Information" in ENLC's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2019, for further information about segment profit (loss).
Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow, as defined above, are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. They should not be considered in isolation or as an indicator of EnLink's performance. Furthermore, they should not be seen as a substitute for metrics prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the following tables. See ENLC's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more information.
