"EnLink's first quarter results and updated 2020 outlook demonstrate the strength of our large-scale diversified platform, and the flexibility and resiliency of our people and operations in the midst of unprecedented market volatility," said Barry E. Davis, EnLink Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

"We have acted swiftly and decisively in response to the evolving business climate and have taken steps to retain roughly $600 million of cash flow in 2020 to manage liquidity, sustain balance sheet strength, and maintain leverage below our covenant.

"We continue to prioritize the health and safety of our employees and stakeholders while remaining focused on operating reliably and responsibly and providing exceptional service to our customers. Everything that we are doing is positioning us for what will become the new normal, and I am confident we will be stronger as a result of our team's incredibly hard work through these challenging times."

    --  EnLink exited the first quarter of 2020 with $195 million of cash on
        hand, and a $1.75 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, upon
        which approximately $550 million was drawn. EnLink's unsecured revolving
        credit facility matures in early 2024 and is backed by 21 leading global
        financial institutions, 17 of which are lenders under EnLink's term
        loan, which matures in December 2021. EnLink is evaluating a number of
        options to refinance the term loan and expects to have sufficient
        financial flexibility to repay the term loan by drawing on the unsecured
        revolving credit facility, with no impact to leverage metrics or
        covenant calculations. EnLink's first maturity on its senior notes is
        not until the first quarter of 2024. Approximately 35% of EnLink's
        outstanding senior notes have a remaining tenor of more than 20 years,
        and all outstanding senior notes are unsecured.
    --  During the first quarter of 2020, EnLink opportunistically repurchased a
        small portion of its outstanding senior notes on the open market. The
        repurchases have resulted in a net gain of approximately $5 million.
    --  EnLink continues to maintain a diversified customer base across its
        asset platform, which includes large integrated customers and other
        investment-grade counterparties. Approximately 90% of EnLink's first
        quarter of 2020 revenues were generated from investment-grade
        counterparties or from customers who provided credit protections to
        EnLink. EnLink has limited credit exposure related to its producer
        customers as the structure of the majority of gathering and processing
        contracts limits the amount of outstanding receivables from producer
        customers to EnLink. EnLink continues to monitor its working capital and
        credit exposure closely.
    --  EnLink's debt-to-adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2020 was 4.6x,
        as calculated under the revolving credit facility agreement, which
        excludes cash on the balance sheet. Debt-to-adjusted EBITDA when debt is
        netted with cash and cash equivalents is 4.4x.

2020 Full-Year Outlook
Given the uncertainty surrounding the market dislocations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, including reduced demand for crude oil and natural gas, commodity price volatility, and curtailed customer activity, EnLink's previously issued 2020 financial guidance originally published on January 15, 2020, and reaffirmed on February 25, 2020, has been revised to reflect current market conditions and assumptions. While providing relevant segment and volume guidance at this time is not possible due to material uncertainties, EnLink has outlined 2020 ranges for key company-level financial metrics in the table below:

    --  EnLink's updated 2020 outlook takes into consideration announced actions
        and current expectations related to all major customers and includes a
        range of assumptions given the uncertainty around the timing and size of
        further production curtailments and shut-ins.
    --  EnLink is projecting that debt-to-adjusted EBITDA for full-year 2020, as
        calculated by the revolving credit facility agreement, will be within
        the range of 4.4x - 4.7x.

First Quarter 2020 Segment Updates

Permian:

    --  Segment profit of $32.3 million for the first quarter of 2020 was
        approximately 13% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and
        approximately 16% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2019.
        Segment profit for the first quarter of 2020 was negatively impacted as
        compared to the prior periods due primarily to lower contribution from
        crude operations and lower natural gas and NGL prices. EnLink hedges
        exposure to commodity price fluctuations and realized approximately $2.5
        million of benefit related to Permian hedges in the corporate segment
        for the first quarter of 2020, providing a partial offset to the impacts
        of a weaker commodity environment.
    --  Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the first
        quarter of 2020 were approximately 3% higher as compared to the fourth
        quarter of 2019 and approximately 26% higher as compared to the first
        quarter of 2019. Average natural gas processing volumes for the first
        quarter of 2020 increased approximately 1% and 21% as compared to the
        fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2019, respectively.
        Volume increases were driven by increased producer activity on EnLink's
        footprint.
    --  Average crude gathering volumes increased approximately 9% for the first
        quarter of 2020 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, driven by
        activity on EnLink's Delaware Basin footprint. Average crude gathering
        volumes declined by approximately 10% in the first quarter of 2020 as
        compared to the first quarter of 2019 as a result of lower crude
        first-purchase volumes. EnLink expects to fully exit the first-purchase
        business in the Midland Basin during the second quarter of 2020.
    --  The Tiger natural gas processing plant construction in the Delaware
        Basin is progressing well and is expected to become operational during
        the second half of 2020, as planned. Once operational, the
        200-million-cubic-feet-per-day Tiger plant will increase EnLink's total
        processing capacity in the Permian Basin to over 1 billion cubic feet
        per day.

Louisiana:

    --  Segment profit of $72.0 million for the first quarter of 2020 was
        approximately 16% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and
        approximately 5% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2019. The
        segment profit decline for the first quarter of 2020, as compared to the
        fourth quarter of 2019, was driven primarily by mark-to-market inventory
        adjustments in the NGL business. The segment profit decline for the
        first quarter of 2020, as compared to the first quarter of 2019, was
        driven by mark-to-market impacts and by the expiration of legacy
        transportation contracts in the natural gas business. EnLink hedges
        exposure to commodity price fluctuations and realized approximately $3
        million of benefit related to Louisiana hedges in its corporate segment
        for the first quarter of 2020, providing a partial offset to the impacts
        of a weaker commodity environment.
    --  Average NGL transportation and fractionation volumes for the first
        quarter of 2020 were approximately 7% higher as compared to the fourth
        quarter of 2019 and 17% higher as compared to the first quarter of 2019.
        Average NGL volumes for the first quarter of 2020 increased compared to
        the fourth quarter of 2019 as improvements to optimize throughput were
        implemented. Average NGL transportation and fractionation volumes for
        the first quarter of 2020 increased as compared to the first quarter of
        2019 as a result of the Cajun-Sibon III expansion being placed into
        service during the second quarter of 2019.
    --  Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the first
        quarter of 2020 were approximately 4% lower as compared to the fourth
        quarter of 2019 and roughly flat as compared to the first quarter of
        2019.
    --  Average natural gas processing volumes for the first quarter of 2020
        were approximately 59% and 64% lower as compared to the fourth quarter
        of 2019 and the first quarter of 2019, respectively. EnLink's natural
        gas processing operations in Louisiana are opportunistic in nature and
        are highly dependent on market dynamics being present to incentivize
        further processing of natural gas on EnLink's system. During the first
        quarter of 2020, market dynamics did not present compelling economics
        for EnLink to process volumes at a level similar to prior periods.
    --  Average crude volumes handled in EnLink's Ohio River Valley operations
        for the first quarter of 2020 were approximately 9% lower as compared to
        the fourth quarter of 2019 and increased by 16% as compared to the first
        quarter of 2019.

Oklahoma:

    --  Segment profit of $103.4 million for the first quarter of 2020 was
        approximately 12% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and
        approximately 6% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2019. The
        decline in segment profit for the first quarter of 2020 as compared to
        prior periods was driven by reduced producer activity in the STACK play.
    --  Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the first
        quarter of 2020 were approximately 6% lower as compared to the fourth
        quarter of 2019 and approximately 2% lower as compared to the first
        quarter of 2019. Average natural gas processing volumes for the first
        quarter of 2020 decreased by approximately 8% and 6% when compared to
        the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2019, respectively.
        Volume decline during the first quarter of 2020 as compared to prior
        periods resulted from reduced producer activity.
    --  Average crude gathering volumes in the first quarter of 2020 were
        approximately 21% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, and
        approximately 25% higher as compared to the first quarter of 2019.
        Volume decline in the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the fourth
        quarter of 2019 was the result of reduced activity by the key producers
        supporting EnLink's crude gathering systems in the STACK play. The
        volume increase in the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the first
        quarter of 2019 was the result of well connect activity on EnLink's
        footprint throughout 2019.

North Texas:

    --  Segment profit of $73.2 million for the first quarter of 2020 increased
        by approximately 2% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and was
        approximately 2% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2019. Segment
        profit for the first quarter of 2020 increased as compared to the fourth
        quarter of 2019 as a result of cost reductions and was lower than the
        first quarter of 2019 due to natural volume decline in the mature basin.
    --  Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the first
        quarter of 2020 decreased by approximately 3% as compared to the fourth
        quarter of 2019 and decreased by approximately 6% as compared to the
        first quarter of 2019. Average natural gas processing volumes for the
        first quarter of 2020 decreased by approximately 6% and 4% as compared
        to the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2019,
        respectively. Volume declines were in line with management expectations
        given the maturity of the basin.

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, distributable cash flow available to common unitholders ("distributable cash flow"), and excess free cash flow.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net loss plus interest expense, net of interest income; income tax expense (benefit); depreciation and amortization; impairments; distributions from unconsolidated affiliates; unit-based compensation; transaction costs; unrealized (gain) loss on commodity swaps; and accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations; less gain on disposition of assets; gain on extinguishment of debt; income from unconsolidated affiliates; payments under onerous performance obligation; non-cash rent; and non-controlling interest share of adjusted EBITDA from joint ventures.

We define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA, net to ENLC, less interest expense, interest rate swaps, current income taxes and other non-distributable cash flows, accrued cash distributions on Series B Preferred Units and 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.

Excess free cash flow is defined as distributable cash flow less distributions declared on common units and growth capital expenditures, excluding growth capital expenditures that were contributed by other entities and relate to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated joint ventures.

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.

Adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, and excess free 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.
