Our strong operational performance in 2018 is expected to carry throughout 2019, as we efficiently grow our differentiated midstream platform. We have purposely built assets with a highly experienced team, which coupled with our deep customer relationships, positions us to create significant value over the long-term."

Crude and condensate operations will be combined regionally with natural gas and NGL operations in Oklahoma and Permian, and Ohio River Valley operations will be included in the Louisiana segment.
• Oklahoma segment profit net of a one-time adjustment relating to a contract restructuring during the second quarter of 2018 is projected to increase by approximately 28 percent and average natural gas volumes are projected to increase by approximately 30 percent, when using the midpoint of the 2019 segment guidance ranges as compared to 2018 actual consolidated results. Crude gathering volumes in Oklahoma are projected to realize significant annual growth in 2019, increasing from 10,000 barrels per day (bbls/d) on average during 2018 to over 60,000 bbls/d, based on the midpoint for 2019 guidance. Oklahoma's growth is expected to continue a strong trajectory, with the segment profit three-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2018 through 2021 projected to be 10 percent or greater. Oklahoma is projected to represent approximately 45 percent of EnLink's 2019 total segment profit.
• Permian segment profit and average natural gas volumes are projected to increase by approximately 30 percent and 60 percent, respectively, when using the midpoint of the 2019 segment guidance ranges as compared to 2018 actual results.

• Growth capital expenditures funded exclusively by EnLink are projected to range from $605 million to $775 million for full-year 2019 and are forecasted to be driven by ongoing investments in the company's key growth regions of Oklahoma, the Permian Basin, and Louisiana's Gulf Coast. EnLink expects to realize adjusted EBITDA return multiples on organic capital investments in the mid-single-digit range.
• EnLink expects to increasingly self-fund growth capital expenditures with cash flow generated from the business and is projecting an aggregate three-year growth capital expenditures range of $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion from 2019 through 2021 for bolt-on projects around EnLink's core platform.

Business Segment Update

• Oklahoma:
• EnLink's Oklahoma segment achieved approximately 28 percent growth in segment profit for the fourth quarter 2018 over the fourth quarter of 2017 and 46 percent growth in segment profit for the full-year 2018 over the full-year 2017. Average volumes gathered and processed exceeded 45 percent growth for full-year 2018 as compared to full-year 2017.
• Construction of EnLink's previously announced Thunderbird processing plant is progressing and is expected to be operational during the second quarter of 2019. Once operational, Thunderbird will increase EnLink's gas processing capacity in Central Oklahoma by 200 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d), bringing total gas processing capacity to over 1.2 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d). EnLink's ongoing development in the active Central Oklahoma region reinforces its position as one of the largest and most cost-efficient providers of natural gas processing in the STACK.
• EnLink fully placed into service both the Black Coyote and Redbud crude oil gathering systems in the STACK during 2018. These systems support Devon Energy Corp. and Marathon Oil Corp. and will provide highly capital-efficient growth during 2019 and beyond.
• Permian:
• EnLink's Permian Basin natural gas system achieved approximately 63 percent and 41 percent growth in average volumes for the fourth quarter of 2018 and full-year 2018, respectively, as compared to 2017 prior periods. The strong growth on EnLink's Permian footprint was driven largely by the quality producer customers EnLink is partnering with, many of whom are large, well-capitalized, active producers committed to investing in the Permian Basin.
• EnLink placed the Avenger crude oil gathering system into initial service during 2018. Volumes on EnLink's two Permian crude oil gathering systems, Avenger (Delaware Basin) and Chickadee (Midland Basin), increased steadily throughout 2018. EnLink expects to achieve continued crude oil gathering growth throughout 2019.
• To support continued volume growth across EnLink's Permian Basin footprint, EnLink's Delaware Basin Joint Venture expanded its Lobo III facility by 100 MMcf/d during 2018 and plans to further expand the facility by 100 MMcf/d in the first quarter of 2019. Once the Lobo III expansions are completed, EnLink's gas processing capacity in the Delaware Basin will total 375 MMcf/d.
• Louisiana:
• NGL fractionation volumes experienced 12 percent and 14 percent growth on average for the fourth quarter of 2018 and full-year 2018, respectively, as compared to 2017 prior periods. EnLink takes title to a portion of the NGLs produced from EnLink's Central Oklahoma footprint, and these NGLs are preferentially shipped to EnLink's Gulf Coast operations for further transportation, fractionation, and downstream value creation.
• In the fourth quarter of 2018, EnLink announced Cajun-Sibon III, a project to expand takeaway capacity from the Mont Belvieu NGL hub region to EnLink's recently expanded fractionation facilities in Louisiana. Once Cajun-Sibon III is fully operational, which is expected during the second quarter of 2019, the two expansion projects combined unlock the ability to fractionate between 30,000 bbls/d and 35,000 bbls/d of incremental NGLs. Cajun-Sibon III project costs are expected to total approximately $50 million and is expected to generate an average annual adjusted EBITDA multiple of two to three times.
• EnLink's Louisiana natural gas system experienced strong throughput during 2018, with 2018 full-year volumes averaging 10 percent higher than full-year 2017. Louisiana's gas operations segment profit contribution declined year over year when comparing full-year 2018 with full-year 2017 due to anticipated, normal course of business re-contracting.
• North Texas:
• EnLink achieved solid operational efficiencies throughout 2018, with segment profit increasing 7 percent and 4 percent for fourth quarter 2018 and full-year 2018, respectively, as compared to 2017 prior periods.
• Average volume decline related to the North Texas footprint during 2018 was in the 6-to-9-percent range for gathering, transmission, and processing volumes when compared to average 2017 volumes. Average gathering, transmission, and processing volume decline during 2019 as compared to 2018 is expected to be less than 5 percent.

Non-GAAP Financial Information and Certain Definitions
This press release contains non-generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) financial measures that we refer to as adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow available to common unitholders ("distributable cash flow"), and ENLC's cash available for distribution.

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, accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations, reimbursed employee costs, 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 (as defined above), net to the Partnership, less interest expense (excluding amortization of EnLink Oklahoma Gas Processing LP (together with its subsidiaries, "EOGP") acquisition installment payable discount), litigation settlement adjustment, adjustments for the redeemable non-controlling interest, interest rate swaps, current income taxes and other non-distributable cash flows, accrued cash distributions on Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Units (the "Series B Preferred Units") and Series C Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (the "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.

ENLC's cash available for distribution is defined as net income (loss) of ENLC less the net income (loss) attributable to the Partnership, which is consolidated into ENLC's net income (loss), plus ENLC's (i) share of distributions from the Partnership, (ii) share of EOGP non-cash expenses, (iii) deferred income tax expense (benefit), (iv) corporate goodwill impairment, (v) acquisition transaction costs attributable to its share of the EOGP acquisition, less ENLC's interest in maintenance capital expenditures of EOGP and less third-party non-controlling interest share of net income (loss) from consolidated affiliates.

The Partnership's distribution coverage is calculated by dividing distributable cash flow by distributions declared to ENLC and the other common unitholders. ENLC's distribution coverage is calculated by dividing cash available for distribution by distributions declared by ENLC.

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.

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. When available, see "Item 1. Financial Statements - Note 14 Segment Information" in ENLK's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, for further information about segment profit (loss).

Segment profit CAGR is defined as (i) the quotient of segment profit for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the segment profit for the year ended December 31, 2018, raised to the power of 1/3, (ii) minus 1.

Returns represent growth capital expenditures divided by annual adjusted EBITDA generated by such expenditures.

The Partnership and ENLC believe 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 Partnership's and ENLC's cash flow after satisfaction of the capital and related requirements of their respective operations.  In addition, adjusted EBITDA achievement is a primary metric used in the Partnership's former credit facility, and ENLC's current credit facility, and EnLink's short-term incentive program for compensating its employees.

Adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow and cash available for distribution, 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 the Partnership's and ENLC'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 for the periods that are presented in this press release are included in the following tables.  See ENLK's and ENLC's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more information.
