Highlights

  • Reported net income of $29.8 million and net cash provided by operating activities of $134.8 million for the second quarter of 2020.
  • Achieved adjusted EBITDA, net to EnLink, of $255.1 million for the second quarter of 2020, largely unchanged from the first quarter of 2020, driven by a focus on cost reductions and strong operational execution.

  • Delivered $72.0 million of excess free cash flow for the second quarter of 2020, positioning EnLink to meet or exceed the high end of its previously announced full-year 2020 guidance range of $260 million to $280 million.
  • Increased Permian segment profit by approximately 35% for the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the first quarter of 2020, through a combination of volume growth, cost reductions, commodity price improvements, and opportunistic margin opportunities captured by EnLink's crude oil storage assets.
  • Reduced expected full-year 2020 operating and general and administrative costs by an incremental $20 million, leading to approximately $120 million of aggregate operating and general and administrative cost savings compared to 2019.
  • Continued to achieve new company safety records, notably including 138 days without an employee recordable injury. EnLink continues to be a top-tier safety performer in the midstream industry.

"We have taken decisive steps to reposition EnLink as a self-funded company with the ability to generate significant excess free cash flow," Chairman and CEO Barry Davis said. "Our team has done great work to positively impact results and cost structure across our large and diverse footprint this year and will continue to do so as we navigate the dynamic road ahead. EnLink is committed to operational excellence, a disciplined investment approach, and maintaining strong financial flexibility in this challenging environment."

  • EnLink continues to maintain a diversified customer base across its asset platform, which includes large integrated customers and other investment-grade counterparties. Approximately 85% of EnLink's second quarter of 2020 revenues were generated from investment-grade counterparties or from customers who provided credit protections to EnLink.
  • EnLink launched a "GoalZERO" environmental, health, and safety program earlier this year. Since its launch, EnLink has continued to achieve new company records, notably including 138 days without an employee recordable injury, which reflects a company record for EnLink.
  • EnLink has a $1.75 billion unsecured revolving credit facility (Revolver), upon which $400 million was drawn at the end of the second quarter. EnLink's Revolver matures in 2024 and is backed by 21 leading global financial institutions, 17 of which are lenders under EnLink's term loan, which matures in December 2021.
  • During the second quarter of 2020, EnLink repurchased $57 million face amount of its outstanding senior notes in the open market, resulting in a net gain of approximately $27 million.

2020 Financial Guidance and 2021 Outlook

Significant market and industry uncertainty remains regarding the pace of improving energy demand associated with the global economic recovery. EnLink's 2020 guidance is based upon assumptions that global energy demand continues its recovery and does not assume any new macro events resulting in additional declines in future demand or commodity prices.

  • Adjusted EBITDA, net to EnLink, for full-year 2020 is on track to achieve in the high end of the guidance range. Excess free cash flow for full-year 2020 is expected to meet – or exceed – the high end of the guidance range. As a result, EnLink is projecting that debt-to-adjusted EBITDA will be broadly in line with the second quarter of 2020 level.
  • EnLink expects to continue to generate strong excess free cash flow during 2021, driven in part by  significantly lower capital expenditures. EnLink plans to provide more detailed 2021 guidance at a later date.

Second Quarter 2020 Segment Updates

Permian Basin:

  • Segment profit of $43.5 million for the second quarter of 2020 was approximately 35% higher as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and approximately 30% higher as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Strong results for the second quarter of 2020 were driven by a combination of volume growth, cost reductions, commodity price improvements, and opportunistic margin opportunities captured by EnLink's crude oil storage assets.
  • Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the second quarter of 2020 were approximately 5% higher as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and approximately 29% higher as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Average natural gas processing volumes for the second quarter of 2020 increased approximately 4% and 24% as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019, respectively.
  • Average crude oil gathering volumes decreased by approximately 16% for the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and declined approximately 23% as compared to the second quarter of 2019, driven by volume curtailments during the second quarter of 2020 and by EnLink's recent exit of the crude oil first-purchase business in the Permian Basin.
  • The Tiger Natural Gas Processing Plant construction in the Delaware Basin is nearing completion and is expected to become operational during the third quarter of 2020, as planned. Once operational, the 200-million-cubic-feet-per-day Tiger Plant will bring total EnLink processing capacity in the Permian to over 1 billion cubic feet per day.
  • Segment free cash flow for the second quarter of 2020 was close to neutral, as the main growth project, the Tiger Plant, was nearing completion. The Permian Segment is expected to generate positive segment free cash flow for the remainder of 2020.

Louisiana:

  • Segment profit of $69.7 million for the second quarter of 2020 was approximately 3% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and approximately 7% higher as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Segment profit decline for the second quarter of 2020, as compared to the first quarter of 2020, was driven primarily due to normal business seasonality in the natural gas liquids (NGL) business. The increase in segment profit for the second quarter of 2020, as compared to the second quarter of 2019, was driven primarily by low-cost, high-return capital expansions of the NGL system.
  • Segment free cash flow for the second quarter of 2020 was $54 million, and Louisiana is expected to generate significant segment free cash flow for the remainder of 2020.
  • NGL fractionation volumes for the second quarter of 2020 were approximately 10% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and 2% lower as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Volume declines relative to prior periods were primarily due to upstream curtailments and shut-ins during the second quarter of 2020.
  • Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the second quarter of 2020 were approximately 8% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and approximately 3% lower as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Industrial demand remained strong despite the weak economic backdrop of the second quarter of 2020.
  • Average natural gas processing volumes for the second quarter of 2020 were approximately16% higher and 42% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019, respectively. EnLink's natural gas processing operations in Louisiana are opportunistic in nature and are highly dependent on market dynamics being present to incentivize further processing of natural gas being transported on EnLink's system.  
  • Average crude volumes handled in EnLink's Ohio River Valley operations for the second quarter of 2020 were approximately 10% and 22% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019, respectively. Crude volumes were negatively impacted during the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the macro demand decline for crude oil impacting refinery activity in Ohio.

Oklahoma:

  • Segment profit of $99.3 million for the second quarter of 2020 was approximately 4% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and approximately 13% lower as compared to the second quarter of 2019. The decline in segment profit for the second quarter of 2020 as compared to prior periods was driven by reduced producer activity coupled with temporary shut-ins and curtailments in Oklahoma's STACK play. Most production impacted by curtailments was back on line by the end of the second quarter of 2020.
  • Segment free cash flow for the second quarter of 2020 was $96 million, and Oklahoma is expected to continue to generate strong segment free cash flow for the remainder of 2020.
  • Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the second quarter of 2020 were approximately 11% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and approximately 17% lower as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Average natural gas processing volumes for the second quarter of 2020 decreased by approximately 6% and 17% when compared to the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019, respectively. The decrease in volumes during the second quarter of 2020 as compared to prior periods resulted from reduced producer activity coupled with temporary shut-ins and curtailments in Oklahoma's STACK play.
  • Average crude gathering volumes in the second quarter of 2020 were approximately 18% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and approximately 44% lower as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Volume declines in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the prior periods resulted from reduced activity by key producers supporting EnLink's crude oil gathering systems in Oklahoma's STACK play.

North Texas:

  • Segment profit of $69.0 million for the second quarter of 2020 decreased by approximately 6% as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and by approximately 5% as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Segment profit for the second quarter of 2020 as compared to prior periods was lower due to natural volumetric decline in the mature Barnett Shale play.
  • Segment free cash flow for the second quarter of 2020 was $66 million, and North Texas is expected to generate significant segment free cash flow for the remainder of 2020.
  • Average natural gas gathering and transportation volumes for the second quarter of 2020 decreased by approximately 6% as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and decreased by approximately 10% as compared to the second quarter of 2019. Average natural gas processing volumes for the second quarter of 2020 decreased by 4% and 13%, respectively, when compared to the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains non-generally accepted accounting principles financial measures that we refer to as adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow available to common unitholders ("distributable cash flow"), excess free cash flow, and segment free cash flow.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (less) interest expense, net of interest income; depreciation and amortization; impairments; loss on secured term loan receivable, (income) loss from unconsolidated affiliates; distributions from unconsolidated affiliates; (gain) loss on disposition of assets; (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt; unit-based compensation; income tax expense (benefit); unrealized (gain) loss on commodity swaps; (payments under onerous performance obligation); transaction costs; accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations; (non-cash rent); and (non-controlling interest share of adjusted EBITDA from joint ventures).

We define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA, net to ENLC, less interest expense, interest rate swaps, current income taxes and other non-distributable cash flows, accrued cash distributions on ENLK's Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Units ("Series B Preferred Units") and ENLK's Series C Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units ("Series C Preferred Units") paid or expected to be paid, and maintenance capital expenditures, excluding maintenance capital expenditures that were contributed by other entities and relate to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated entities.

Excess free cash flow is defined as distributable cash flow less distributions declared on common units and growth capital expenditures, excluding growth capital expenditures that were contributed by other entities and relate to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated joint ventures.

Segment free cash flow is defined as segment profit less growth and maintenance capital expenditures, which are gross to EnLink prior to giving effect to the contributions by other entities related to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated entities.

EnLink believes these measures are useful to investors because they may provide users of this financial information with meaningful comparisons between current results and previously-reported results and a meaningful measure of the company's cash flow after it has satisfied the capital and related requirements of its operations.  In addition, adjusted EBITDA achievement is a primary metric used in our short-term incentive program for compensating employees.

Adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, excess free cash flow, and segment free cash flow, as defined above, are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP. They should not be considered in isolation or as an indicator of EnLink's performance. Furthermore, they should not be seen as a substitute for metrics prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the following tables.  See ENLC's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more information.

Other definitions and explanations of terms used in this press release:

Segment profit (loss) is defined as operating income (loss) plus general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, (gain) loss on disposition of assets, impairments, and loss on secured term loan receivable. Segment profit (loss) includes non-cash compensation expenses reflected in operating expenses. See "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 15 - Segment Information" in ENLC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and, when available, "Item 1. Financial Statements - Note 13-Segment Information" in ENLC's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2020, for further information about segment profit (loss).

____________________________

(1)

Represents the revised forward-looking net income guidance for the year ended December 31, 2020, and includes the actual results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and the projected results for the remainder of the year ended December 31, 2020. The forward-looking net income guidance from April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 excludes the potential impact of gains or losses on derivative activity, gains or losses on disposition of assets, impairment expense, gains or losses as a result of legal settlements, and the financial effects of future acquisitions. The exclusion of these items is due to the uncertainty regarding the occurrence, timing and/or amount of these events.




EnLink does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking net cash provided by operating activities to adjusted EBITDA because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty changes in working capital, which may impact cash provided or used during the year. Working capital includes accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current assets and liabilities. These items are uncertain and depend on various factors outside the company's control.

(2)

Net income includes estimated net income attributable to (i) NGP's 49.9% share of net income from the Delaware Basin JV and (ii) Marathon Petroleum Corp.'s 50% share of net income from the Ascension JV.

(3)

Includes (i) estimated accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations; (ii) estimated non-cash rent, which relates to lease incentives pro-rated over the lease term; and (iii) transaction costs, including transaction costs related to the simplification transaction.

(4)

Non-controlling interest share of adjusted EBITDA includes estimates for (i) NGP's 49.9% share of adjusted EBITDA from the Delaware Basin JV, (ii) Marathon's 50% share of adjusted EBITDA from the Ascension JV, and (iii) other minor non-controlling interests.

(5)

Excludes capital expenditures that are contributed by other entities and relate to the non-controlling interest share of our consolidated entities.

(6)

Represents the cash distributions earned by the Series B Preferred Units and Series C Preferred Units. Cash distributions to be paid to holders of the Series B Preferred Units and Series C Preferred Units are not available to common unitholders.
