Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

Our results of operations since the completion of our initial public offering are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full year.

 

Except per unit amounts, dollar amounts presented in the tabular data within this Current Report on Form 8-K are stated in thousands of dollars.

 

The financial information and related discussion included in the press release and this Current Report on Form 8-K that pertain to periods prior to our initial public offering reflect the assets, liabilities and operations contributed to us by EPO at the closing of our initial public offering on February 5, 2007. We refer to these historical assets, liabilities and operations as the assets, liabilities and operations of Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor. We have elected February 1, 2007 as the effective closing date for financial accounting and reporting purposes with respect to Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor.

 

The financial information of Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor reflects EPO’s historical ownership of these assets, liabilities and operations. The principal business entities included in the historical combined financial statements of Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor are (on a 100% basis): (i) Mont Belvieu Caverns, LLC (“Mont Belvieu Caverns”), a Delaware limited liability company; (ii) Acadian Gas, LLC (“Acadian Gas”), a Delaware limited liability company; (iii) Enterprise Lou-Tex Propylene Pipeline L.P. (“Lou-Tex Propylene”), a Delaware limited partnership, including its general partner; (iv) Sabine Propylene Pipeline L.P.

We have presented our results of operations following the completion of our initial public offering separately from those pertaining to Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor. We acquired substantially all of the assets and operations of the Predecessor that are included in our consolidated financial statements. There are a number of agreements and other items that went into effect at the time of our initial public offering that affect the comparability of our current operating results with the historical operating results of Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor. These differences include:

 

 

 

 

 

As generally used in the energy industry and in this press release and accompanying exhibits, the identified terms have the following meanings:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

---

Use of Non-GAAP financial measures

 

Our press release and/or the conference call discussions include the non-generally accepted accounting principle (“non-GAAP”) financial measures of gross operating margin, distributable cash flow, and EBITDA. The press release provides reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other GAAP measure of liquidity or financial performance.

 

Gross operating margin. We evaluate segment performance based on the non-GAAP financial measure of gross operating margin. Gross operating margin (either in total or by individual segment) is an important performance measure of the core profitability of our operations. This measure forms the basis of our internal financial reporting and is used by senior management in deciding how to allocate capital resources among business segments. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that our management uses in evaluating segment results. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to total segment gross operating margin is operating income. Our non-GAAP financial measure of total segment gross operating margin should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP operating income.

 

We define total (or combined) segment gross operating margin as operating income before: (i) depreciation, amortization and accretion expense; (ii) gains and losses on the sale of assets; and (iii) general and administrative expenses. Gross operating margin is exclusive of other income and expense transactions, provision for income taxes, extraordinary charges and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles. Gross operating margin by segment is calculated by subtracting segment operating costs and expenses (net of the adjustments noted above) from segment revenues, with both segment totals before the elimination of any intersegment and intrasegment transactions. In accordance with GAAP, intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

 

We include equity earnings from Evangeline Gas Pipeline Company, L.P. (“Evangeline”) in our measurement of segment gross operating margin and operating income. Our equity investment in Evangeline is a vital component of our business strategy and important to the operations of Acadian Gas. This method of operation enables us to achieve favorable economies of scale relative to the level of investment and business risk assumed versus what we could accomplish on a stand-alone basis. Evangeline performs complementary roles to the other business operations of Acadian Gas. As circumstances dictate, we may increase our ownership interest in Evangeline or make other equity method investments.

 

Distributable cash flow. We define distributable cash flow for Duncan Energy Partners as net income or loss plus: (i) depreciation, amortization and accretion expense; (ii) cash distributions received from our unconsolidated affiliate, if any, less equity in the earnings of such unconsolidated affiliate; (iii) the subtraction of sustaining capital expenditures; (iv) the addition of losses or subtraction of gains relating to the sale of assets; (v) cash proceeds from the sale of assets; and (vi) other miscellaneous non-cash amounts affecting net income or loss for the period less parent interest in the above adjustments to net income or loss in deriving distributable cash flow. Sustaining capital expenditures are capital expenditures (as defined by GAAP) resulting from improvements to and major renewals of existing assets. Distributable cash flow is a significant liquidity metric used by our senior management to compare basic cash flows generated by us to the cash distributions we expect to pay our partners. Using this metric, our management can compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned cash distributions.

 

Distributable cash flow is also an important non-GAAP financial measure for our limited partners since it serves as an indicator of our success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this financial measure indicates to investors whether or not we are generating cash flows at a level that can sustain or support an increase in our quarterly cash distribution. Distributable cash flow is also a quantitative standard 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 pays to a unitholder). The GAAP measure most directly comparable to distributable cash flow is cash flows from operating activities.

 

 

 

 

 

---

EBITDA. We define EBITDA as net income or loss plus interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation, accretion and amortization expense. EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (i) the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (ii) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest cost and support our indebtedness; (iii) our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing and capital structure; and (iv) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Because EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the EBITDA data presented in the press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to EBITDA is cash flow from operating activities.

Duncan Energy Partners Reports Second Quarter Results

 

Houston, Texas (July 26, 2007) - Duncan Energy Partners L.P. (NYSE:DEP) today announced its financial results for the three months and five months ended June 30, 2007. The five month period ended June 30, 2007 reflects operations since the completion of the initial public offering (“IPO”) of Duncan Energy Partners on February 5, 2007. For reporting purposes, the effective date of the IPO was February 1, 2007. The partnership reported net income of $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2007, or $0.22 per common unit on a fully diluted basis. Results of operations following the completion of the IPO are reported separately from those pertaining to the predecessor of Duncan Energy Partners, (“Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor”).

 

Distributable cash flow for the second quarter of 2007 was $6.6 million. On July 17, 2007, the board of Duncan Energy Partners declared its quarterly cash distribution rate to partners of $0.40 per common unit, or $1.60 per unit on an annualized basis. Distributable cash flow for the second quarter provided 0.8 times coverage of the quarterly cash distribution. Distributable cash flow is a non-generally accepted accounting principle (or “non-GAAP”) financial measure that is defined and reconciled later in this press release to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net cash flows provided by operating activities.

 

Revenue for the second quarter of 2007 increased 7 percent to $236.9 million from $221.3 million for the second quarter of 2006 as reported by Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor. Gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2007 increased 17 percent to $21.5 million from $18.4 million recorded for the same quarter of 2006 for Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor. For the second quarter of 2007, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion (“EBITDA”) were $14.2 million. Gross operating margin and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that are defined and reconciled later in this press release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

 

“Duncan Energy Partners reported solid operating results for the second quarter of 2007 supported by consistent performance from our Mont Belvieu NGL storage facility, South Texas NGL pipeline and propylene pipelines,” said Richard H. Bachmann, president and chief executive officer of Duncan Energy Partners. “Distributable cash flow for the second quarter of 2007 was impacted by $4.2 million of sustaining capital expenditures that were incurred during the second quarter.”

“While the sustaining capital expenditures incurred this quarter were higher than normal, we were pleased that our commercial businesses performed better than anticipated. Furthermore we expect increased cash generated from our improved business operations to largely offset any adverse impact that higher sustaining capital expenditures will have on distributable cash flows for the remainder of 2007,” continued Bachmann.

 

“The phase II expansion of our South Texas NGL pipeline is on schedule to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year. When finished, this increase in capacity will strengthen our energy value chain as more NGLs are transported from south Texas to our Mont Belvieu NGL storage complex. This should result in an increase in fee-based revenues and cash flows,” stated Bachmann.

 

Review of Segment Quarterly Performance

 

The results reported below reflect operations for Duncan Energy Partners for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to operating results of Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor for the comparable three-month period in 2006.

 

Duncan Energy Partners owns a 66 percent equity interest in the assets described below, and Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (“Enterprise Products Partners”) owns the remaining 34 percent equity interest. Enterprise Products Partners owns the general partner of Duncan Energy Partners. We account for Enterprise Products Partners’ interest in our subsidiaries as Parent Interest in a manner similar to minority interest. However, from a gross operating margin standpoint, the amounts shown are on a 100 percent basis before the deduction for Parent Interest.

 

NGL and Petrochemical Storage Services – This segment consists of 33 underground salt dome caverns located at Mont Belvieu, Texas, with an underground storage capacity of approximately 100 million barrels (“MMBbls”), and certain other related assets. Gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2007 increased 88 percent to $10.7 million from $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2006.

 

Increased storage fees reflective of market rates charged to Enterprise Products Operating LLC (“EPO”) effective concurrent with the Duncan Energy Partners IPO, in addition to higher volumes and fees from third-party storage customers, accounted for $2.7 million of the increase over the same quarter in 2006. Also contributing to the improvement in gross operating margin was a $2.2 million decrease in operating expenses.

 

Natural Gas Pipelines and Services – This segment includes the Acadian intrastate natural gas system that gathers, transports, stores and markets natural gas in Louisiana. In the aggregate, this system is comprised of over 1,000 miles of high-pressure transmission lines with a throughput capacity of 1 billion cubic feet (“Bcf”) per day and 3 Bcf of gas storage capacity. Gross operating margin for the second quarter of 2007 decreased to $2.2 million from $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2006, primarily

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

---

 

due to lower natural gas sales margins and volumes. We expect to recover a portion of the shortfall in sales volumes from Entergy Louisiana over the remainder of 2007 under the terms of the firm commitment contract with Entergy Louisiana.

 

Petrochemical Pipeline Services – This segment consists of two petrochemical pipeline systems with an aggregate of 284 miles of pipeline that provide transportation of propylene in Texas and Louisiana. Gross operating margin decreased to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2007 from $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2006, primarily due to lower tariff rates on the Lou-Tex Propylene Pipeline. Prior to our IPO, Enterprise Products Partners paid the maximum rate for the use of our Lou-Tex and Sabine Propylene Pipelines. They in turn charged third parties a lower rate to ship volumes on these pipelines. The third-party contracts were assigned to us at our IPO. Accordingly, we earn a lower transportation rate than that charged to Enterprise Products Partners prior to February 2007. Petrochemical transportation volumes averaged 37,000 barrels per day for the second quarter of 2007, which was in line with our expectations.

 

NGL Pipeline Services – This segment includes the partnership’s 286-mile, DEP South Texas NGL Pipeline System that transports natural gas liquids (“NGLs”) from two fractionation facilities located in South Texas to Mont Belvieu, Texas. This system became operational in January 2007 and generated gross operating margin of $5.3 million during the second quarter of 2007 on 74,000 barrels per day of NGL transportation volumes. Volumes are based on NGL production from Enterprise Products Partners’ Shoup and Armstrong fractionators, which experienced an increase in NGL production volumes due to the strong demand for NGLs.

 

The second quarter results for Duncan Energy Partners will be discussed at 8:30 a.m. CDT this morning during the Enterprise Products Partners earnings conference call with analysts and investors. The call will be broadcast live over the Internet and may be accessed by visiting the company's website at www.deplp.com.

 

Basis of Presentation of Financial Information  

 

We have presented our results of operations following the completion of our initial public offering separately from those pertaining to Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor. We acquired substantially all of the assets and operations of Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor that are included in our consolidated financial statements. There are a number of agreements and other items that went into effect at the time of our initial public offering that affect the comparability of our current operating results with the historical operating results of Duncan Energy Partners Predecessor. These differences include:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This press release and accompanying schedules include non-GAAP financial measures of gross operating margin, distributable cash flow, and EBITDA. The press release provides reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, net cash flows provided from operating activities or any other GAAP measure of liquidity or financial performance.

 

Gross operating margin - We evaluate segment performance based on the non-GAAP financial measure of gross operating margin. Gross operating margin (either in total or by individual segment) is an important performance measure of the core profitability of our operations. This measure forms the basis of our internal financial reporting and is used by senior management in deciding how to allocate capital resources among business segments. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that our management uses in evaluating segment results. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to total segment gross operating margin is operating income. Our non-GAAP financial measure of total segment gross operating margin should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP operating income.

 

We define total (or combined) segment gross operating margin as operating income before: (i) depreciation, amortization and accretion expense; (ii) gains and losses on the sale of assets; and (iii) general and administrative expenses. Gross operating margin is exclusive of other income and expense transactions, provision for income taxes, extraordinary charges and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles. Gross operating margin by segment is calculated by subtracting segment operating costs and expenses (net of the adjustments noted above) from segment revenues, with both segment totals before the elimination of any intersegment and intrasegment transactions. In accordance with GAAP, intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

We include equity earnings from Evangeline Gas Pipeline Company L.P. and Evangeline Gas Corp. (collectively “Evangeline”) in our measurement of segment gross operating margin and operating income. Our equity investment in Evangeline is a vital component of our business strategy and important to the operations of our Acadian natural gas system. This method of operation enables us to achieve favorable economies of scale relative to the level of investment and business risk assumed versus what we could accomplish on a stand-alone basis. Evangeline performs complementary roles to the other business operations of Acadian Gas. As circumstances dictate, we may increase our ownership interest in Evangeline or make other equity method investments.

 

Distributable cash flow - We define distributable cash flow for Duncan Energy Partners as net income or loss plus: (i) depreciation, amortization and accretion expense; (ii) cash distributions received from unconsolidated affiliate, if any, less equity in the earnings of such unconsolidated affiliate; (iii) the subtraction of sustaining capital expenditures; (iv) the addition of losses or subtraction of gains relating to the sale of assets; (v) cash proceeds from the sale of assets; and (vi) other miscellaneous non-cash amounts affecting net income or loss for the period less parent interest in the above adjustments to net income or loss in deriving distributable cash flow. Sustaining capital expenditures are capital expenditures (as defined by GAAP) resulting from improvements to and major renewals of existing assets. Distributable cash flow is a significant liquidity metric used by our senior management to compare basic cash flows generated by us to the cash distributions we expect to pay our partners. Using this metric, our management can compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned cash distributions.

 

Distributable cash flow is also an important non-GAAP financial measure for our limited partners since it serves as an indicator of our success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this financial measure indicates to investors whether or not we are generating cash flows at a level that can sustain or support an increase in our quarterly cash distribution. Distributable cash flow is also a quantitative standard 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 pays to a unitholder). The GAAP measure most directly comparable to distributable cash flow is net cash flows provided by operating activities.

 

EBITDA - We define EBITDA as net income or loss plus interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation, accretion and amortization expense. EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (i) the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis; (ii) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest cost and support our indebtedness; (iii) our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing and capital structure; and (iv) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Because EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect

net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the EBITDA data presented in the press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to EBITDA is net cash flows provided by operating activities.
