Energy Transfer Equity Reports Third Quarter Results
Energy Transfer Equity, L.P. (NYSE:ETE) (“ETE” or the
“Partnership”) today reported financial results for the quarter ended
September 30, 2016.
ETE’s net income attributable to partners was $209 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $293 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2015. Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted,
for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $281 million compared
to $325 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The
decreases in net income attributable to partners and Distributable Cash
Flow, as adjusted, were primarily driven by an $85 million reduction in
incentive distributions from ETP. As previously reported, ETE has agreed
to a reduction in incentive distributions from ETP in the aggregate
amount of $720 million over a period of seven quarters, beginning the
quarter ended June 30, 2016.
The Partnership’s recent key accomplishments and other developments
include the following:
-
In October 2016, ETE announced a $0.285 distribution per ETE common
unit for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, or $1.14 per unit on an
annualized basis.
-
As of September 30, 2016, ETE’s $1.5 billion revolving credit facility
had $885 million of outstanding borrowings and its leverage ratio, as
defined by the credit agreement, was 3.08x.
The Partnership has scheduled a conference call for 8:00 a.m. Central
Time, Thursday, November 10, 2016 to discuss its third quarter 2016
results. The conference call will be broadcast live via an internet
webcast, which can be accessed through www.energytransfer.com

This press release and accompanying schedules include the
non-generally accepted accounting principle (“non-GAAP”) financial
measures of Distributable Cash Flow, Distributable Cash Flow, as
adjusted, and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, per Unit. The
Partnership’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered
as alternatives to GAAP financial measures such as net income, cash
flow from operating activities or any other GAAP measure of
liquidity or financial performance.
|
|
|
|
Distributable Cash Flow and Distributable
Cash Flow, as adjusted. The Partnership defines
Distributable Cash Flow and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted,
for a period as cash distributions expected to be received in
respect of such period in connection with the Partnership’s
investments in limited and general partner interests, net of the
Partnership’s cash expenditures for general and administrative
costs and interest expense. The Partnership’s definitions of
Distributable Cash Flow and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted,
also include distributable cash flow from Lake Charles LNG to the
Partnership. For Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, certain
transaction-related expenses that are included in net income are
excluded.
|
|
|
|
Distributable Cash Flow is a significant liquidity measure used by
the Partnership’s senior management to compare net cash flows
generated by the Partnership to the distributions the Partnership
expects to pay its unitholders. Due to cash expenses incurred from
time to time in connection with the Partnership’s merger and
acquisition activities and other transactions, Distributable Cash
Flow, as adjusted, is also a significant liquidity measure used by
the Partnership’s senior management to compare net cash flows
generated by the Partnership to the distributions the Partnership
expects to pay its unitholders. Using these measures, the
Partnership’s management can compute the coverage ratio of estimated
cash flows for a period to planned cash distributions for such
period.
|
|
|
|
Distributable Cash Flow and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted,
are also important non-GAAP financial measures for our limited
partners since these indicate to investors whether the Partnership’s
investments are generating cash flows at a level that can sustain or
support an increase in quarterly cash distribution levels. Financial
measures such as Distributable Cash Flow and Distributable Cash
Flow, as adjusted, are quantitative standards used by the investment
community with respect to publicly traded partnerships because the
value of a partnership unit is in part measured by its yield (which
in turn is based on the amount of cash distributions a partnership
can pay to a unitholder). The GAAP measure most directly comparable
to Distributable Cash Flow, and Distributable Cash Flow, as
adjusted, is net income for ETE on a stand-alone basis (the “Parent
Company”).
|
|
|
|
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, per
Unit. The Partnership defines Distributable Cash Flow, as
adjusted, per Unit for a period as the quotient of Distributable
Cash Flow, as adjusted, divided by the weighted average number of
units outstanding. For purposes of this calculation, the number of
units outstanding represents the Partnership’s basic average
common units outstanding plus Class D units outstanding and the
general partner common unit equivalent.
|
|
|
|
Similar to Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, as described above,
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, per Unit is a significant
liquidity measure used by the Partnership’s senior management to
compare net cash flows generated by the Partnership to the
distributions the Partnership expects to pay to its unitholders.
|
|
|
|
Distribution Coverage Ratio. The
Partnership defines Distribution Coverage Ratio for a period as
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, divided by total cash
distributions expected to be paid to the partners of ETE in
respect of such period.
