Management Commentary
"During the fourth quarter, Calumet delivered on key strategic priorities, including the refinancing of our 2021 notes and the divestment of our San Antonio fuels refinery" said Tim Go, Chief Executive Officer of Calumet. "Our leverage ratio improved to 4.0x net debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA (or 4.6x excluding LCM/LIFO), down from 5.6x net debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA (or 4.9x excluding LCM/LIFO) at the end of 2018. Calumet delivered another strong quarter of financial and operational performance, with strong utilization in both our Specialty and Fuel Products segments, overcoming seasonally softer demand and market headwinds, to deliver $49.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) in the fourth quarter."
Go added, "For the full year, Calumet delivered $262.8 million of Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) and $191.9 million of cash flow from operations. Our Specialty Products segment contributed $207.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO), which was up 24% year-over-year. This helped to partially offset the lower Fuel Products segment contribution of $152.5 million of Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO), which was down year-over-year, due primarily to the weaker crude differentials. In addition, our Specialty Products gross profit per barrel increased 7.2% to $34.41, and our Specialty Products EBITDA margins (excluding LCM/LIFO) increased 320 basis points to 15.4% driven by volume growth in solvents, naphthenic oils, & finished lubricants and our margin-enhancing self-help initiatives. In particular, our rationalization of low-margin SKUs shed 2,100 bpd of low profitability business and has freed up our commercial team to focus on growing our higher margin business. Finally, in 2019, we reduced total long-term debt by over $390 million and lowered our interest expenses by roughly $21 million.
Go concluded, "Looking ahead to 2020, Calumet remains firmly committed to our transformation, carrying the momentum of our improved profitability and strengthened balance sheet to drive top- and bottom-line growth in our core specialties business. We have taken the next step in our portfolio transformation and started the process of reviewing strategic options for our remaining fuels refinery in Great Falls, Montana and expect to execute upon an option, which could occur as early as this year. In addition, I am pleased to announce that Calumet completed the strategic acquisition of Paralogics, LLC during the first quarter, which expands our presence in the wax blending and packaging market. In conclusion, we remain focused on executing against our 2020 Self-Help efforts, which we expect to deliver $40 million in incremental Adjusted EBITDA. When combined with our other strategic priorities, we believe these efforts should help us expand our Specialty Products gross profit to over $40 per barrel and our Adjusted EBITDA Margins over 15%."

(excluding LCM/LIFO)
During the fourth quarter 2019, Specialty Products segment gross profit was $69.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $48.9 million, which included $6.1 million of favorable impact related to LCM and LIFO adjustments. Excluding these non-cash charges, fourth quarter segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) of $63.3 million declined 8.1%, while Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) of $42.8 million decreased 5.3%, each as compared to the fourth quarter 2018, as production volumes and Adjusted EBITDA were negatively impacted by turnaround activity at Shreveport in the quarter. These results were driven by strong operating performance and higher feedstock runs but were offset by planned downtime at our Shreveport refinery. Additionally, healthy growth across solvents, naphthenic base oils, and finished lubricants and chemicals helped offset the negative impacts of continued weakness in the paraffinic base oil market. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.2%, or 14.2% (excluding LCM/LIFO) improved versus the prior year period, as the rationalization of low-margin products more than overcame the volatility in crude oil prices and the impact of downtime at the Shreveport refinery.

(excluding hedging activities, LCM/LIFO)
During the fourth quarter 2019, Fuel Products segment gross profit was $21.6 million, a decrease of 50.6% compared to the prior year period, and Adjusted EBITDA was $26.5 million, a decrease of 39.6% compared to the prior year period. In each case, this included $2.2 million of unfavorable impact from LCM and LIFO adjustments. Excluding these non-cash charges, segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) of $23.8 million and Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) of $28.7 million, both decreased compared to the year-ago period. These results were primarily due to the tightening of the WCS/WTI heavy crude differential, which tightened $15.50 per barrel compared to last year's fourth quarter, in addition to the decrease in the benchmark Gulf Coast 2/1/1 crack spread. These headwinds were partially offset by strong throughput volumes across the fuels business, which grew nearly 17% compared to last year's fourth quarter, as Self-Help and debottlenecking projects conducted throughout the year helped increase production, despite the downtime taken at the Shreveport refinery during the quarter.
Partnership Liquidity
As of December 31, 2019, the Partnership had total liquidity of $378.5 million, comprised of $19.1 million of cash on hand, plus approximately $359.4 million of availability under its revolving credit facility. The borrowing base under the revolving credit facility was approximately $401.9 million and the Partnership had $42.5 million in outstanding standby letters of credit and no outstanding borrowings. The Partnership believes it will continue to have sufficient liquidity from cash on hand, cash flow from operations, borrowing capacity and other means by which to meet its financial commitments, debt service obligations, contingencies and anticipated capital expenditures.
2020 Outlook
For fiscal 2020, total capital spending is expected to be between $80 million to $90 million. Included in the forecast is maintenance capital, expected turnaround activity and smaller growth capital projects.
The Partnership recently provided an update for Phase II of its self-help program that was originally launched in early 2019. Phase II remains on track to deliver the $100 million of incremental Adjusted EBITDA by year-end 2021. Management expects to deliver approximately $40 million of incremental Adjusted EBITDA in 2020. Half, or approximately $20 million, will come from Specialty Products growth initiatives, including two debottlenecking projects, further rationalization and replacement of low margin tolling agreements, and additional finished lubricant expansion projects. The other half, or roughly $20 million, will come from an expense reduction plan designed to right-size General and Administrative spending. The Partnership is expected to incur approximately $10 million in one-time costs in 2020 to implement this expense reduction plan. Due to the unknown effect, timing and potential significance of certain income statement items, the Partnership is unable to provide a reconciliation of these projected Adjusted EBITDA amounts to projected net income (loss), the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Operations Summary
The following table sets forth information about our combined operations, excluding the results of discontinued operations. Facility production volume differs from sales volume due to changes in inventories and the sale of purchased fuel product blendstocks such as ethanol and biodiesel and the resale of crude oil in our fuel products segment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our management uses certain non-GAAP performance measures to analyze operating segment performance and non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate past performance and prospects for the future to supplement our U.S. GAAP financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These financial and operational non-GAAP measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include performance and liquidity measures along with certain key operating metrics.
We use the following performance and liquidity measures:
EBITDA: We define EBITDA for any period as net income (loss) plus interest expense (including debt issuance costs), income taxes and depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA: We define Adjusted EBITDA for any period as: EBITDA adjusted for (a) impairment; (b) unrealized gains and losses from mark to market accounting for hedging activities; (c) realized gains and losses under derivative instruments excluded from the determination of net income (loss); (d) non-cash equity-based compensation expense and other non-cash items (excluding items such as accruals of cash expenses in a future period or amortization of a prepaid cash expense) that were deducted in computing net income (loss); (e) debt refinancing fees, premiums and penalties; (f) any net loss realized in connection with an asset sale that was deducted in computing net income (loss) and (g) all extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items of gain or loss, or revenue or expense.
Distributable Cash Flow: We define Distributable Cash Flow for any period as Adjusted EBITDA less replacement and environmental capital expenditures, turnaround costs, cash interest expense (consolidated interest expense less non-cash interest expense), income (loss) from unconsolidated affiliates, net of cash distributions and income tax expense (benefit).
Adjusted EBITDA Margin: We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin for any period as Adjusted EBITDA divided by sales.
Adjusted net income (loss): We define Adjusted net income (loss) for any period as: net income (loss) adjusted for (a) impairment; (b) unrealized losses from mark to market accounting for hedging activities; (c) realized gains under derivative instruments excluded from the determination of net income (loss); (d) non-cash equity-based compensation expense and other non-cash items (excluding items such as accruals of cash expenses in a future period or amortization of a prepaid cash expense) that were deducted in computing net income (loss); (e) debt refinancing fees, premiums and penalties; (f) any net loss realized in connection with an asset sale that was deducted in computing net income (loss) and (g) all extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items of gain or loss, or revenue or expense; (h) lower of cost or market ("LCM") inventory adjustments; (i) the impact of liquidation of LIFO inventory layers and (j) until third quarter of 2019, the amortization of turnaround costs.
Adjusted net income (loss) per unit: We define Adjusted net income (loss) per unit for any period as Adjusted net income (loss) divided by average limited partner units (diluted).
Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO): We define Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) for any period as Adjusted EBITDA excluding the impact of LCM inventory adjustments and the impact of liquidation of LIFO inventory layers.
Specialty products segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO): We define Specialty products segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) for any period as Specialty products segment gross profit excluding the impact of LCM inventory adjustments and the impact of liquidation LIFO inventory layers.
Fuel products segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO): We define Fuel products segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) for any period as Fuel products segment gross profit excluding the impact of LCM inventory adjustments and the impact of liquidation of LIFO inventory layers.
The definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow that are presented in this press release are consistent with the calculation of "Consolidated Cash Flow" contained in the indentures governing our 7.625% senior notes due January 15, 2022, that were issued in November 2013 (the "2022 Notes"), our 7.75% senior notes due April 15, 2023, that were issued in March 2015 (the "2023 Notes") and our 11.00% senior notes due April 15, 2025, that were issued in October 2019 (the "2025 Notes"). We are required to report Consolidated Cash Flow to the holders of our 2022 Notes, 2023 Notes and 2025 Notes and Adjusted EBITDA to the lenders under our revolving credit facility, and these measures are used by them to determine our compliance with certain covenants governing those debt instruments. Please see our filings with the SEC, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K, for additional details regarding the covenants governing our debt instruments.
These non-GAAP measures are used as supplemental financial measures by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to assess:
-- the 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 and support our indebtedness;
-- our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of
other companies in our industry, without regard to financing or capital
structure;
-- the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the
overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities; and
-- our operating performance excluding the non-cash impact of LCM and LIFO
inventory adjustments.
We believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to analysts and investors as they exclude transactions not related to our core cash operating activities and provide metrics to analyze our ability to pay distributions and interest costs. We believe that excluding these transactions allows investors to meaningfully analyze trends and performance of our core cash operations.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per unit, Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) and segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) should not be considered alternatives to Net income (loss), Operating income (loss), Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, gross profit or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In evaluating our performance as measured by EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per unit, Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) and segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) management recognizes and considers the limitations of these measurements. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) do not reflect our obligations for the payment of income taxes, interest expense or other obligations such as capital expenditures. Accordingly, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per unit, Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) and segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) are only a few of several measurements that management utilizes. Moreover, our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per unit, Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) and segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per unit, Adjusted EBITDA (excluding LCM/LIFO) and segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) in the same manner. Please see the section of this release entitled "Non-GAAP Reconciliations" for tables that present reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Adjusted net income (loss) to Net income (loss), our most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial performance measure; Distributable Cash Flow to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, our most directly comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measure, for each of the periods indicated; and segment gross profit (excluding LCM/LIFO) to segment gross profit, our most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial performance measure.
Further, management and various investors use the ratio of net debt (defined below) to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA, or "net debt leverage," as a measure of our financial strength and ability to incur incremental indebtedness when making key investment decisions and evaluating us against peers. Net debt is defined as borrowed long-term debt and capital lease obligations, less cash.
