EnLink Midstream Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2019 Results, Reaffirms 2020 Financial Guidance, and Provides Segment Updates
DALLAS, February 25, 2020 — EnLink Midstream, LLC (NYSE: ENLC) (EnLink) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year of 2019, reaffirmed previously announced 2020 financial guidance, and provided a segment level update.
Highlights:
• | Reported a net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 driven by a non-cash impairment of goodwill that was created at the formation of EnLink in 2014. |
• | Delivered 11% sequential growth in adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2019. The increase was driven primarily by strong performance in the natural gas liquids (NGL) business, which experiences a seasonal high during the fourth quarter. |
• | Achieved 6% sequential growth in average daily NGL volume throughput during the fourth quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2019. |
• | Achieved 7% and 6% sequential growth in average daily natural gas gathering and processing volumes in the Permian Basin, respectively. |
• | Reported full-year 2019 growth capital expenditures, net to EnLink, was 5% below the low end of the guidance range. |
• | Completed strategic growth projects across core asset areas during 2019, including: |
◦ | The Lobo III natural gas processing facility in the Delaware Basin; |
◦ | The Riptide natural gas processing facility expansion in the Midland Basin; |
◦ | The Cajun-Sibon III NGL pipeline expansion in Louisiana; |
◦ | The Thunderbird natural gas processing facility in Oklahoma; and |
◦ | A high-return, low-capital asset acquisition in North Texas. |
• | Reaffirmed 2020 financial guidance previously announced on January 15, 2020. |
• | As separately announced today, appointed two new directors - Deborah G. Adams and James K. Lee - to the Board of Directors, effective March 1, 2020. Concurrently, Matthew C. Harris will step down as a director. EnLink also announced the appointment of Walter Pinto to its senior leadership team as Senior Vice President, Operational Excellence, effective March 16, 2020. |
CEO Commentary on 2019 and Forward Outlook
“EnLink finished off 2019 with strong adjusted EBITDA performance in the fourth quarter, driven by our diversified asset platform and solid execution. 2019 was a year of transition for EnLink, including the evolution from a period of high growth into an era of operational optimization. We continue to take necessary actions to position EnLink financially and operationally for long-term success, while maintaining an unrelenting commitment to deliver best-in-class services reliably and safely,” said Barry E. Davis, EnLink Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
"Our large-scale, diversified platform generates significant, stable cash flows from our two growth platforms in the Permian and Louisiana, and our two strong, free-cash-flow-generating systems in Oklahoma and North Texas. The Permian continues to drive near-term growth, with producers remaining very active on our footprint, while our Louisiana platform provides long-term growth opportunities.

"We are confident that the earnings power of our platform combined with our execution plan will deliver superior returns for investors over the long-term. As we turn to 2020 and beyond, we believe our strategic asset platform will allow us to differentiate EnLink by generating excess free cash flow, supported by manageable capital needed to modestly grow adjusted EBITDA."

Segment Updates
Permian Basin:
• | Segment profit of $37.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 was approximately 2% higher as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and unchanged as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The segment profit contribution from EnLink’s Permian natural gas business for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased by 7% as compared to the third quarter of 2019, due to strong gas gathering and processing volume growth, which was offset by a reduction in segment profit contribution from EnLink’s Permian crude business. The Permian crude business experienced a reduction in segment profit despite a 9% increase in crude oil handling volumes primarily due to the expiration of a minimum volume commitment with Devon Energy Corp. on south Texas crude operations during the third quarter of 2019. |
• | Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 were approximately 8% higher as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and approximately 36% higher as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Average natural gas processing volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased approximately 6% and 45% as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2018, respectively. EnLink continues to benefit from strong producer activity on its Permian footprint, with significant volumetric growth expected throughout 2020. |
• | Average crude oil handling volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased by approximately 9% as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and were approximately 7% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The sequential increase was primarily driven by growth in crude gathering on the Delaware Basin pipeline system, while the decline as compared to the prior year fourth quarter primarily resulted from a strategic decision to reduce low-margin crude trucking activity in the Midland Basin. |
• | EnLink recently announced a series of low-cost, high-return expansion and debottlenecking projects that are expected to add approximately 70 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of natural gas processing capacity to its Midland Basin footprint during 2020. |
• | Construction of EnLink’s previously announced Tiger natural gas processing facility in the Delaware Basin remains on track to become operational during in the second half of 2020. Upon the completion of the Tiger plant and the Riptide expansions, EnLink's Permian natural gas processing capacity will be approximately 1.1 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) by the fourth quarter of 2020. |
• | Segment profit for full-year 2020 is expected to range from $200 million to $220 million, with growth over full-year 2019 expected to be driven primarily by strong producer activity in both the Delaware Basin and Midland Basin. |
• | The Permian is expected to account for approximately 20% of EnLink's total segment profit during 2020. Given the significant base of accretive growth opportunities on EnLink's Permian system, EnLink expects to allocate approximately 70% of total capital expenditures to Permian growth projects. The projects will become operational during 2020 and the first half of 2021, underpinning the strong segment profit growth forecasted for 2020 and 2021. |
Louisiana:
• | Segment profit of $86.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 was approximately 28% higher as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and 26% higher as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The significant increase in segment profit as compared to prior quarters was driven by a full quarter of contribution related to the Cajun-Sibon III expansion completed in April 2019 and the seasonal high for EnLink's NGL business. |
• | Average NGL fractionation volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 were approximately 6% higher as compared to the third quarter of 2019. Average NGL fractionation volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased by approximately 10% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, driven by the Cajun-Sibon III expansion. |
• | Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 were approximately 2% higher as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and approximately 3% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Average natural gas processing volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 increased approximately 6% and decreased 10% as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2018, respectively. Louisiana volume declines from the fourth quarter of 2018 to the fourth quarter of 2019 were a result of a less favorable commodity price environment in the fourth quarter of 2019 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. |
• | Average crude volumes on EnLink's Ohio River Valley system for the fourth quarter of 2019 were approximately 10% lower as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and increased by 12% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Volumes during the fourth quarter of 2019 as compared to prior periods fluctuated as a result of normal variations in trucking activities. |
• | Segment profit for full-year 2020 is expected to range from $300 million to $320 million, with growth driven primarily by the NGL business. |
• | Louisiana is expected to account for approximately 25% of EnLink’s total segment profit in 2020, with approximately 14% of total capital expenditures expected to be allocated to Louisiana operations. Louisiana is expected to generate significant segment free cash flow during 2020. |
3
Oklahoma:
• | Segment profit of $117.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 was approximately 7% higher as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and approximately 5% higher as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The sequential increase in segment profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was due to a few factors, including cost reduction initiatives and a slightly larger deficiency payment from Devon related to a minimum volume commitment (MVC) expiring on December 31, 2020. |
• | Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 were approximately 4% lower as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and approximately 2% higher as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Average natural gas processing volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 decreased approximately 5% and 2% when compared to the third quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2018, respectively. |
• | Average crude gathering volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 were approximately 22% lower as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and approximately 92% higher as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. The year-over-year growth is attributable to new well connections during the first half of 2019. The sequential decline reflects the lack of crude gathering well connections during the second half of 2019. |
• | Segment profit for full-year 2020 is expected to range from $435 million to $455 million, remaining relatively unchanged as compared to full-year 2019 results. Annual average daily volumes for 2020 are expected to decline as compared to 2019. |
• | Oklahoma is expected to account for approximately 35% of EnLink’s total segment profit in 2020, with approximately 10% of total capital expenditures expected to be allocated to Oklahoma. EnLink has been successful in reducing capital spend per natural gas well connection in Oklahoma and in 2020 EnLink forecasts per well capital for connections to EnLink's natural gas system to be roughly 60% less than similar costs incurred during 2018. EnLink's active producer mix in Oklahoma is also evolving, whereby approximately 70% of well connections in 2020 are forecasted to be driven by activity with regional producers as compared to approximately 70% of 2019 well connections being with multibasin producers. With steady segment profit forecasted for 2020, coupled with a significant decrease in capital expenditures, Oklahoma is expected to generate significant segment free cash flow during 2020. |
North Texas:
• | Segment profit of $72.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 was approximately 4% higher as compared to the third quarter of 2019, driven by successful cost reduction initiatives and margin improvements. Segment profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was approximately 25% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 due to the expiration of MVCs with Devon on December 31, 2018. Results for the fourth quarter of 2018 include approximately $23 million of MVC payments, representing 24% of segment profit. Excluding MVC payments, segment profit for the fourth quarter of 2018 is in line with the fourth quarter of 2019. |
• | Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 were relatively unchanged as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and approximately 5% lower as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Average natural gas processing volumes for the fourth quarter of 2019 decreased approximately 3% as compared to the third quarter of 2019 and remained relatively unchanged as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. |
• | Segment profit for full-year 2020 is expected to range from $240 million to $260 million. The reduction in forecasted 2020 segment profit as compared to full-year 2019 results of $289 million is due to volume declines in this mature basin, along with changes in business mix and the reduction in processing fees charged to BKV Oil and Gas Capital Partners (BKV) as they transition into Devon's ownership position during the second quarter of 2020. The reduction in processing fees is expected to be more than offset by value chain enhancements to EnLink's Louisiana NGL business. |
• | North Texas is expected to account for 20% of EnLink’s total segment profit in 2020, with less than 5% of total capital expenditures expected to be allocated to related operations. North Texas is expected to generate significant segment free cash flow during 2020. |

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest expense, net of interest income; income tax expense (benefit); depreciation and amortization; impairments; loss on secured term loan receivable; distributions from unconsolidated affiliate investments; (gain) loss on disposition of assets; unit-based compensation; transaction costs; (income) loss from unconsolidated affiliate investments; (gain) loss on non-cash derivatives; and accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations; less non-cash revenue from contract restructuring; gain on extinguishment of debt; payments under onerous performance obligation; non-cash rent; and non-controlling interest.
We define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA (defined above, net to ENLC), less interest expense, loss (gain) on settlement of 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 (“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.
Excess free cash flow is defined as distributable cash flow less distributions declared on common units and growth capital expenditures, which are net to EnLink after giving effect to the contributions by other entities related to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated entities
Segment Free Cash Flow is defined as segment profit less growth and maintenance capital expenditures, which are gross to EnLink prior to giving effect to the contributions by other entities related to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated entities.
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, excess free cash flow and segment 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.

(1) | In May 2018, we restructured our natural gas gathering and processing contract with White Star, and, as a result, recognized non-cash revenue representing the discounted present value of a secured term loan receivable granted to us by White Star. In late May 2019, White Star, the counterparty to our $58.0 million second lien secured term loan receivable, defaulted on its approximately $10.0 million installment payment under the term loan and filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. White Star sold its assets and we did not recover any amounts then owed to us under the second lien secured term loan. | |

EnLink Midstream does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Adjusted EBITDA and Excess Free Cash Flow because the companies are unable to predict with reasonable certainty changes in working capital, which may impact cash provided or used during the year. Working capital includes accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current assets and liabilities. These items are uncertain and depend on various factors outside the companies' control.
