TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NGL Energy Partners LP (NYSE: NGL) today reported net income attributable to limited partners for the six month period ended March 31, 2011, of $12.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $17.7 million. Net income per limited partner unit for the period was $1.16. NGL Energy Partners LP was formed on September 8, 2010, but had no operations through September 30, 2010. The consolidated statements of operations for NGL Energy Partners LP is presented for the six-month period ended March 31, 2011 as a result of the Partnership’s commencement of operations on October 1, 2011 and its fiscal year end of March 31, 2011.
During May 2011, the Partnership completed an initial public offering of common units, raising approximately $75.5 million net proceeds, including the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common units. The offering’s net proceeds were used to repay $65 million in borrowings under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility, to redeem 175,000 common units held by the Partnership’s pre-initial public offering limited partners and for general partnership purposes.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures which we believe are used by industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies to assess the financial performance and the operating results of the Partnership's fundamental business activities and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations, or other measures of cash flow. A table reconciling EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA with appropriate GAAP financial measures is included in the summarized financial information in this release. The Partnership’s Adjusted EBITDA excludes from EBITDA the unrealized gain or loss on derivative contracts, the gain or loss on the disposal of assets and share-based compensation expenses.
NGL Energy Partners also announced that it has filed its annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. NGL has posted a copy of the Form 10-K on its website at www.nglenergypartners.com. Unitholders of NGL will be provided a copy of NGL's Form 10-K free of charge upon request. Any such request should be made in writing directed to: NGL Energy Partners LP, Investor Relations, 6120 South Yale Avenue, #805, Tulsa, OK 74136.

We define EBITDA as net income, or net income (loss) attributable to parent entity, plus income taxes, interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding the unrealized gain or loss on derivative contracts, the gain or loss on the disposal of assets and share-based compensation expenses. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, income before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. We believe that EBITDA provides additional information for evaluating our ability to make quarterly distributions to our unitholders and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information for evaluating our financial performance without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as we define them, may not be comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures used by other entities.
