CONTRIBUTION OF THE REMAINING 49.9 PERCENT INTEREST IN THE EAST TEXAS JOINT VENTURE

We are announcing today that we have signed an agreement with DCP Midstream for the contribution to the Partnership of the remaining 49.9 percent interest in DCP East Texas Holdings, LLC for $165 million. As part of the dropdown, DCP Midstream will take approximately 20% of the total consideration in common units of the Partnership.

The East Texas system includes:

 

   

Complex currently processing approximately 550 MMcf per day

 

   

900 miles of gathering and transportation pipelines

 

   

Favorable market access through the Carthage Hub, a key exchange point for the 1.5 billion cubic feet per day of gas volumes

This immediately accretive transaction, which is expected to close by the first quarter of 2012, provides long-term cash flows with expected future growth.

CEO PERSPECTIVE

“Financial results were in line with our 2011 forecast, delivering a distribution coverage ratio of 1.1 times year-to-date”, said Mark Borer, president and CEO of the Partnership. “We increased our distribution again this quarter and are on track to deliver on our 2011 distributable cash flow forecast. We are pleased to have reached an agreement with our general partner, DCP Midstream, for the contribution to the Partnership of its remaining interest in East Texas, which will provide immediate cash flows to support continued distribution growth. Inclusive of this transaction, over the past year we are now executing on over $450 million of co-investment opportunities with our general partner. With the accelerating growth opportunities announced by our general partner, we remain optimistic about our growth outlook.”

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2011 decreased to $32.3 million from $42.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The 2010 results include a $9.1 million non-cash step acquisition - equity interest re-measurement gain associated with our acquisition of an additional interest in Black Lake. Excluding the non-cash gain, adjusted EBITDA decreased by $0.6 million in 2011 compared to 2010.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, adjusted EBITDA increased to $129.6 million from $114.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Excluding the $9.1 million non-cash gain, adjusted EBITDA increased by $24.1 million in 2011 compared to 2010.

On October 26, 2011, we announced a quarterly distribution of $0.64 per limited partner unit. This represents an increase of 1.2 percent over the last quarterly distribution and an increase of 4.9 percent over the distribution declared in the third quarter of 2010. Our distributable cash flow of $27.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 provided a 0.8 times distribution coverage ratio for the quarter. The distribution coverage ratio for the last four quarters as reported was 1.1 times.

OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

Natural Gas Services — Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $29.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $37.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, reflecting planned turnaround activity at our East Texas and Southeast Texas assets, environmental remediation at East Texas, an extended planned third party outage at our Wyoming asset, and the timing of expenditures. The 2010 results do not reflect our current fee-based storage arrangement for the Partnership at our Southeast Texas asset.

 

- 3 -


Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $106.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $110.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, reflecting planned turnaround activity at our East Texas and Southeast Texas assets, environmental remediation at East Texas and an extended planned third party outage at our Wyoming asset, partially offset by increased gas throughput volumes and NGL production across certain assets and a third party settlement in East Texas. The 2010 results for our Southeast Texas asset include business interruption recoveries and do not reflect our current fee-based storage arrangement for the Partnership.

Wholesale Propane Logistics — Adjusted segment EBITDA increased to $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, reflecting higher unit margins and increased volumes. The 2010 results include a planned outage related to our Providence terminal inspection.

Adjusted segment EBITDA increased to $23.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $11.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, reflecting our acquisition of the Chesapeake propane terminal, higher unit margins and increased volumes. The 2010 results include a planned outage related to our Providence terminal inspection and reduced demand as a result of an early spring and warmer weather.

NGL Logistics — Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $9.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $11.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The 2010 results include a $9.1 million non-cash step acquisition - equity interest re-measurement gain associated with our acquisition of an additional interest in Black Lake. Excluding the non-cash gain, adjusted segment EBITDA increased by $6.6 million in 2011 compared to 2010, reflecting our acquisitions of the Marysville NGL storage facility, the DJ Basin NGL Fractionators and an additional 50% interest in Black Lake, increased throughput on our pipelines, and the Wattenberg capital expansion project, partially offset by the timing of expenditures related to the transition and integration of our Marysville acquisition and pipeline integrity testing.

Adjusted segment EBITDA increased to $26.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Excluding a $9.1

million non-cash step acquisition - equity interest re-measurement gain associated with our acquisition of an additional interest in Black Lake in 2010, adjusted segment EBITDA increased by $18.4 million in 2011 compared to 2010, reflecting our acquisitions of the Marysville NGL storage facility, an additional 50% interest in Black Lake and the DJ Basin NGL Fractionators as well as the Wattenberg capital expansion project.

CORPORATE AND OTHER

Increased depreciation and amortization expense and interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflect the Marysville NGL storage facility, Black Lake NGL pipeline, Chesapeake wholesale propane terminal and DJ Basin NGL fractionator acquisitions as well as organic capital spending. General and administrative costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 include transaction costs related to acquisitions.

CAPITALIZATION

At September 30, 2011, we had $726 million of total debt outstanding, which was comprised of $250 million of senior notes due 2015 and $476 million outstanding under our revolver. Total unused revolver capacity was $373 million. Our leverage ratio pursuant to our credit facility for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, was approximately 3.7 times. Our effective interest rate on our overall debt position, as of September 30, 2011, was 4.0 percent.

COMMODITY DERIVATIVE ACTIVITY

The objective of our commodity risk management program is to protect downside risk in our distributable cash flow. We utilize mark-to-market accounting treatment for our commodity

 

- 5 -


derivative instruments. Mark-to-market accounting rules require companies to record currently in earnings the difference between their contracted future derivative settlement prices and the forward prices of the underlying commodities at the end of the accounting period. Revaluing our commodity derivative instruments based on futures pricing at the end of the period creates an asset or liability and associated non-cash gain or loss. Realized gains or losses from cash settlement of the derivative contracts occur monthly as our physical commodity sales are realized or when we rebalance our portfolio. Non-cash gains or losses associated with the mark-to-market accounting treatment of our commodity derivative instruments do not affect our distributable cash flow.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, commodity derivative activity and total revenues included non-cash gains of $60.0 million and $48.1 million, respectively, and net hedge cash settlements were payments of $7.9 million and $23.8 million, respectively. This compares to non-cash losses of $18.5 million and non-cash gains of $11.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. Net cash hedge settlements for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were receipts of $2.1 million, which was comprised of payments of $2.0 million in monthly settlements and receipts of $4.1 million associated with rebalancing our portfolio. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, net hedge cash settlements were receipts of $0.1 million, which was comprised of payments of $5.8 million in monthly settlements and receipts of $5.9 million associated with rebalancing our portfolio. While our earnings will continue to fluctuate as a result of the volatility in the commodity markets, our commodity derivative contracts mitigate a portion of the risk of weakening commodity prices thereby stabilizing distributable cash flows.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

This press release and the accompanying financial schedules include the following non-GAAP financial measures: distributable cash flow, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted segment EBITDA, adjusted net income attributable to partners, and adjusted net income per unit. The accompanying schedules provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to our financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, including net income or loss attributable to partners, net cash provided by or used in operating activities or any other measure of liquidity or financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance, liquidity or ability to service debt obligations and make cash distributions to unitholders. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate their measures in the same manner.

We define distributable cash flow as net cash provided by or used in operating activities, less maintenance capital expenditures, net of reimbursable projects, plus or minus adjustments for non-cash mark-to-market of derivative instruments, proceeds from divestiture of assets, net income attributable to noncontrolling interest net of depreciation and income tax, net changes in operating assets and liabilities, and other adjustments to reconcile net cash provided by or used in operating activities. Historical distributable cash flow is calculated excluding the impact of retrospective adjustments related to any acquisitions presented under the pooling method. Maintenance capital expenditures are capital expenditures made where we add on to or improve capital assets owned, or acquire or construct new capital assets, if such expenditures are made to maintain, including over the long term, our operating capacity or earnings. Non-cash mark-to-market of derivative instruments is considered to be non-cash for the purpose of computing distributable cash flow because settlement will not occur until future periods, and will be impacted by future changes in commodity prices. Distributable cash flow is used as a supplemental liquidity and performance measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to assess our ability to make cash distributions to our unitholders and our general partner.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss attributable to partners less interest income, noncontrolling interest in depreciation and income tax expense and non-cash commodity derivative gains, plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense and non-cash commodity derivative losses. The commodity derivative non-cash losses and gains result from the marking to market of certain financial derivatives used by us for risk management purposes that we do not account for under the hedge method of accounting. These non-cash losses or gains may or may not be realized in future periods when the derivative contracts are settled, due to fluctuating commodity prices. We define adjusted segment EBITDA for each segment as segment net income or loss attributable to partners less non-cash commodity derivative gains for that segment, plus depreciation and amortization expense and non-cash commodity derivative losses for that segment, adjusted for any noncontrolling interest on depreciation and amortization expense for that segment. Our adjusted EBITDA equals the sum of our adjusted segment EBITDAs, plus general and administrative expense.

 

- 7 -


Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental liquidity and performance measure and adjusted segment EBITDA is used as supplemental performance measure by our management and we believe by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to assess:

 

   

financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;

 

   

our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing methods or capital structure;

 

   

viability and performance of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on investment opportunities; and

 

   

in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support our indebtedness, make cash distributions to our unitholders and general partners, and finance maintenance capital expenditures.

We define adjusted net income attributable to partners as net income attributable to partners, plus non-cash derivative losses, less non-cash derivative gains. Adjusted net income per unit is then calculated from adjusted net income attributable to partners. These non-cash derivative losses and gains result from the marking to market of certain financial derivatives used by us for risk management purposes that we do not account for under the hedge method of accounting. Adjusted net income attributable to partners and adjusted net income per unit are provided to illustrate trends in income excluding these non-cash derivative losses or gains, which may or may not be realized in future periods when derivative contracts are settled, due to fluctuating commodity prices.
