Oasis Midstream Partners LP Announces Quarter Ended September 30, 2017 Earnings

HOUSTON, Nov. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Oasis Midstream Partners LP (NYSE: OMP) (the "Partnership" or "OMP") today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and provided an operational update.

Recent Highlights:

  • Completed initial public offering ("IPO" or the "Offering") of 8,625,000 common units, representing limited partnership interests in OMP, and received net proceeds of $137.2 million, of which $131.6 million was distributed to Oasis Petroleum Inc. ("Oasis"), OMP's sponsor.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $29.1 million for the three months ending September 30, 2017. Delivered gross Adjusted EBITDA of $29.6 million and net Adjusted EBITDA of $11.2 million for the entire third quarter of 2017. For the six-day post-IPO period from September 25, 2017 to September 30, 2017, generated net Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Partnership of $0.7 million and Distributable Cash Flow ("DCF") of $0.6 million. For definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF and reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF to net income and net cash provided by operating activities, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
  • Announced construction of second Wild Basin Gas Plant ("Gas Plant II") with total capacity of 200 million standard cubic feet per day ("MMscfpd") to service gas production from Oasis' highly economic inventory.

"We are excited for this new chapter in the Oasis story, as we successfully completed the OMP IPO," said Taylor Reid, Chief Executive Officer of OMP. "Volumes were solid in all areas and in line with our expectations for the third quarter.  Continued growth in volumes are expected to generate growing EBITDA and DCF.  The strength of our relationship with Oasis creates a foundation for peer leading future growth, as we plan to deliver 20% long-term annual distribution growth."

Mr. Reid added, "The new gas plant project offers OMP unitholders an attractive return and path to additional upside.  The project enhances near-term EBITDA above the base forecast we provided in our IPO materials and is accretive to long-term EBITDA, distribution coverage, and distribution growth once the project is operational. Gas Plant II fits nicely with our strategy of funding opportunistic projects that are accretive to our unitholders, and we're excited to be a part of the project."

Gas Plant II Update

Oil and gas production from Oasis' Wild Basin wells continues to exceed expectations, primarily due to higher frac intensity in the core areas of the Williston Basin.  The initial gas to oil ratio ("GOR") is generally higher in the core of the Williston Basin, including parts of McKenzie County, compared to the entire basin. The combined effect of these factors has resulted in record gas production levels in the Williston Basin and particularly in McKenzie County where much of the drilling since 2015 has occurred and which now produces approximately half of the gas production in North Dakota.  Due to the increased production of gas in the Williston Basin, there is a need for incremental processing capacity in the basin.  

Gas production in Wild Basin has already surpassed original design expectations for the Partnership's 80 MMscfpd gas plant, which is held by OMP's wholly-owned development company ("DevCo"), Bighorn DevCo LLC ("Bighorn DevCo"), and recently has averaged gross gas production in Wild Basin of approximately 100 MMscfpd. Oasis initially evaluated options to process the incremental gas that is being produced in and around Wild Basin and subsequently began the front end engineering and design process for a second gas plant and began ordering long lead time items. Oasis recently made the decision to proceed with the construction of Gas Plant II, and on November 6, 2017, Oasis agreed to assign the project to the Partnership. In exchange for the assignment of Gas Plant II into Bighorn DevCo, OMP agreed to reimburse Oasis for 100% of its capital spent-to-date and will fund 100% of the remaining project capital. OMP funded the reimbursement under its revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") and will have full rights to all cash flows generated from both gas plants held by Bighorn DevCo. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, Oasis invested $57.0 million in Gas Plant II, and, on November 6, 2017, assigned $66.7 million of asset value to OMP, which included capital spent in October 2017. OMP expects to invest approximately $140.0 million for the entire Gas Plant II project and anticipates operations will begin in late 2018.

Additionally, temporary gas processing units with total capacity of 40 MMscfpd are being deployed in the coming weeks at the gas plant location to process gas volumes in excess of current processing capacity. Cash flows from these units will be attributed to Bighorn DevCo. The increase in EBITDA from these units will more than cover increased interest expense during construction of Gas Plant II. Once Gas Plant II is operational, distribution coverage is expected to further improve, and the runway for 20% annual distribution per unit growth is expected to be extended. Lastly, Oasis continues to expect to run two rigs in Wild Basin to develop this acreage position.

Quarterly Distribution

The Board of Directors of OMP's general partner will declare the first quarterly cash distribution for the Partnership after the end of the fourth quarter 2017. As stated in the prospectus for the OMP IPO, the Partnership will not make a distribution for the period prior to the closing of the Offering. The amount of the distribution declared with respect to the fourth quarter 2017 will be adjusted to reflect the additional six-day period from the closing of the Offering on September 25, 2017 to September 30, 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Cash Interest is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Partnership's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Partnership defines Cash Interest as interest expense plus capitalized interest less amortization and write-offs of deferred financing costs and debt discounts included in interest expense. Cash Interest is not a measure of interest expense as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of interest expense to the non-GAAP financial measure of Cash Interest for the periods presented:

(1) Represents capitalized interest allocated to the predecessor prior to the Offering. No capitalized interest was recorded by the Partnership subsequent to the Offering, as no amounts were drawn under its Revolving Credit Facility.


(2) Represents the amortization of deferred financing costs on the Partnership's Revolving Credit Facility subsequent to the Offering. No amounts of deferred financing costs were recorded and amortized by the predecessor prior to the Offering.

Adjusted EBITDA is supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Partnership's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Partnership defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is not measures of net income (loss) or cash flows as determined by GAAP.

The Partnership defines Distributable Cash Flow ("DCF") as Adjusted EBITDA attributable to OMP less cash paid for interest and maintenance capital expenditures. DCF should not be considered an alternative to net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF provides information useful to investors and analysts for assessing results of operations, financial performance and OMP's ability to generate cash from business operations without regard to financing methods or capital structure, coupled with OMP's ability to make distributions to OMP unitholders. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to DCF are net income and net cash provided by operating activities, respectively.

The following table presents reconciliations of the GAAP financial measures of net income and net cash provided by operating activities to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF for the periods presented:
