NGL Energy Partners LP Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Results

TULSA, Okla.--()--NGL Energy Partners LP (NYSE:NGL) (“NGL,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Partnership”) today reported its first quarter Fiscal 2025 financial results. Highlights include:

  • Net income for the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 of $10.5 million, compared to net income of $19.6 million for the first quarter of Fiscal 2024
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 of $144.3 million, compared to $134.7 million for the first quarter of Fiscal 2024
  • On April 4, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner declared a cash distribution of 55.4% of the outstanding distribution arrearages through the quarter ended March 31, 2024 to the holders of the Class B preferred units, the Class C preferred units and the Class D preferred units. The total distribution of $120.0 million was made on April 18, 2024 to the holders of record at the close of trading on April 12, 2024.
  • On April 9, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner declared a cash distribution to fully pay the remaining distribution arrearages and interest through the quarter ended March 31, 2024 to the holders of the Class B preferred units, the Class C preferred units and the Class D preferred units. The total distribution of $98.1 million was made on April 25, 2024 to the holders of record at the close of trading on April 19, 2024.
  • During April and May 2024, we closed on the sale of two ranches located in Eddy and Lea Counties, New Mexico for consideration of $69.3 million, including working capital and the sale of certain saltwater disposal assets in the Delaware Basin and certain real estate located in Lea County, New Mexico for additional consideration of approximately $12.2 million.
  • On June 5, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner authorized a common unit repurchase program, under which we may repurchase up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common units from time to time in the open market or in other privately negotiated transactions. This program does not have a fixed expiration date.

Highlight for the period subsequent to June 30, 2024:

  • On August 5, 2024, we amended the Term Loan B agreement to reduce the SOFR margin from 4.50% to 3.75%.

“We have had a strong start to Fiscal 2025 with $144.3 million in Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the first quarter. We are reaffirming our guidance for Fiscal 2025 with Water Solutions Adjusted EBITDA(2) to a range of $550 - $560 million and full year consolidated Adjusted EBITDA(2) of $665 million. Our focus remains on continued balance sheet improvement by reducing absolute debt and leverage, plus the completion of the LEX II pipeline,” stated Mike Krimbill.

Certain of the forward-looking financial measures are provided on a non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation of forward-looking financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event driven transactional and other non-core operating items in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

Water Solutions

Operating income for the Water Solutions segment increased by $15.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The Partnership processed approximately 2.47 million barrels of produced water per day during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, a 0.3% increase when compared to approximately 2.46 million barrels of water per day processed during the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in water disposal services fees was primarily due to lower fees for produced water processed during the quarter due to rate changes for certain existing contracts, the expiration of certain higher fee per barrel contracts which were replaced with lower fee per barrel contracts with an extended term and higher volumes received under contracts with lower fees per barrel. Also contributing to the decrease were lower produced water volumes processed mainly in the DJ Basin as certain producers reused their water in their operations. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in produced water volumes processed from contracted customers in the Eagle Ford and Delaware Basins and higher fees charged for interruptible spot volumes. There was also an increase in payments made by certain producers for committed volumes not delivered.

Revenues from recovered skim oil, including the impact from realized skim oil hedges, totaled $30.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $7.7 million from the prior year period. The increase was due primarily to an increase in skim oil barrels sold as a result of higher skim oil recovered from increased produced water processed and higher realized crude oil prices received from the sale of skim oil barrels. While the amount of skim oil recovered in the prior year quarter was in line with historical averages, a certain amount of skim oil barrels was stored due to tighter pipeline specifications which reduced the amount of skim oil sold during the prior year quarter.

Operating expenses in the Water Solutions segment decreased $2.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023 due primarily to lower chemical expense due to purchasing fewer chemicals and using chemicals more efficiently and lower repairs and maintenance expense due to the timing of repairs and tank cleaning. Operating expense per produced barrel processed was $0.24 for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.25 in the comparative quarter last year.

Crude Oil Logistics

Operating income for the Crude Oil Logistics segment decreased by $2.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023. Product margin for crude oil sales decreased year over year primarily due to lower sales volumes from lower production volumes on acreage dedicated to us in the DJ Basin. The decrease in product margin from crude oil sales was partially offset by higher tariff revenue on the Grand Mesa Pipeline from signing on a new shipper during the open season that ended on January 5, 2024 and higher price and quality differentials realized in the current quarter. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, physical volumes on the Grand Mesa Pipeline averaged approximately 63,000 barrels per day, compared to approximately 72,000 barrels per day for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Liquids Logistics

Operating income for the Liquids Logistics segment decreased by $19.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023. Product margins (excluding the impact of derivatives) for refined products were lower as the supply issues seen in certain markets in the prior year, resulting in higher margins, were resolved and supply and demand were more in balance and lower propane margins due to lower demand. This was partially offset by an increase in butane margins due to the higher demand for butane blending. Also the butane margins for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 included a lower of cost or net realizable value adjustment of $5.4 million. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, we recorded net derivative losses of $15.0 million compared to derivative gains of $9.9 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Corporate and Other

The operating loss for Corporate and Other was lower by $10.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The decrease related to lower general and administration expenses due to the timing of incentive compensation payments compared to the prior year, the elimination of share-based compensation expense due to all outstanding long-term incentive plan awards being fully vested in November 2023 and lower legal expenses. Also, there was a decrease due to a derivative loss during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 of $4.2 million.

Capitalization and Liquidity

Total liquidity (cash plus available capacity on our asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL Facility”)) was approximately $348.7 million as of June 30, 2024. Borrowings on the Partnership’s ABL Facility totaled approximately $169.0 million as of June 30, 2024, as we funded certain capital projects and began to build inventory for the blending and heating seasons.

The Partnership is in compliance with all of its debt covenants and has no upcoming debt maturities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to NGL Energy Partners LP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, equity-based compensation expense, revaluation of liabilities and other. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives 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 to investors 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 to investors 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, Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures used by other entities.

For purposes of our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, we make a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is open, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, we reverse the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss and record a realized gain or loss. In our Crude Oil Logistics segment, we purchase certain crude oil barrels using the West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) calendar month average (“CMA”) price and sell the crude oil barrels using the WTI CMA price plus the Argus CMA Differential Roll Component (“CMA Differential Roll”) per our contracts. To eliminate the volatility of the CMA Differential Roll, we entered into derivative instrument positions in January 2021 to secure a margin of approximately $0.20 per barrel on 1.5 million barrels per month from May 2021 through December 2023. Due to the nature of these positions, the cash flow and earnings recognized on a GAAP basis differed from period to period depending on the current crude oil price and future estimated crude oil price which were valued utilizing third-party market quoted prices. We recognized in Adjusted EBITDA the gains and losses from the derivative instrument positions entered into in January 2021 to properly align with the physical margin we hedged each month through the term of this transaction. This representation aligns with management’s evaluation of the transaction. The derivative instrument positions we entered into related to the CMA Differential Roll expired as of December 31, 2023, and we have not entered into any new derivative instrument positions related to the CMA Differential Roll.

As previously reported, for purposes of our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, we did not draw a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives of certain businesses within our Liquids Logistics segment. The primary hedging strategy of these businesses is to hedge against the risk of declines in the value of inventory over the course of the contract cycle, and many of the hedges cover extended periods of time. The “inventory valuation adjustment” row in the reconciliation table reflects the difference between the market value of the inventory of these businesses at the balance sheet date and its cost. We include this in Adjusted EBITDA because the unrealized gains and losses associated with derivative contracts associated with the inventory of this segment, which are intended primarily to hedge inventory holding risk and are included in net income, also affect Adjusted EBITDA. Beginning April 1, 2024, and going forward, we will now be drawing a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives and no longer include the activity on the “inventory valuation adjustment” row in the reconciliation table for these certain businesses within our Liquids Logistics segment. This change aligns with how management now views and evaluates the transactions within these businesses and is also consistent with the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA used in our other businesses. If this change was made as of April 1, 2023, Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2023 would have been $136.0 million.

Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA minus maintenance capital expenditures, income tax expense, cash interest expense, preferred unit distributions and other. Maintenance capital expenditures represent capital expenditures necessary to maintain the Partnership’s operating capacity. For the CMA Differential Roll transaction, as discussed above, we have included an adjustment to Distributable Cash Flow to reflect, in the period for which they relate, the actual cash flows for the positions that settled that are not being recognized in Adjusted EBITDA. Distributable Cash Flow is a performance metric used by senior management to compare cash flows generated by the Partnership (excluding growth capital expenditures and prior to the establishment of any retained cash reserves by the board of directors of our general partner) to the cash distributions expected to be paid to unitholders. Using this metric, management can quickly compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned cash distributions. This financial measure also is important to investors as an indicator of whether the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain, or support an increase in, quarterly distribution rates. Actual distribution amounts are set by the board of directors of our general partner.

We do not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis where we are unable to provide a meaningful calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measure that have not yet occurred, are out of the Partnership’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements.” All statements other than statements of historical facts included or incorporated herein may constitute forward-looking statements. Actual results could vary significantly from those expressed or implied in such statements and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. While NGL believes such forward-looking statements are reasonable, NGL cannot assure they will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that affect operations, financial performance, and other factors as discussed in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other factors that could impact any forward-looking statements are those risks described in NGL’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other public filings. You are urged to carefully review and consider the cautionary statements and other disclosures made in those filings, specifically those under the heading “Risk Factors.” NGL undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as required by law.

NGL provides Adjusted EBITDA guidance that does not include certain charges and costs, which in future periods are generally expected to be similar to the kinds of charges and costs excluded from Adjusted EBITDA in prior periods, such as income taxes, interest and other non-operating items, depreciation and amortization, net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition expense, revaluation of liabilities and items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring. The exclusion of these charges and costs in future periods will have a significant impact on the Partnership’s Adjusted EBITDA, and the Partnership is not able to provide a reconciliation of its Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss) without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs and the Partnership believes that such reconciliation, if possible, would imply a degree of precision that would be potentially confusing or misleading to investors.
