NEWS RELEASE

ARC LOGISTICS PARTNERS LP ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR THIRD QUARTER 2013

NEW YORK, NY, December 18, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)—Arc Logistics Partners LP (NYSE: ARCX) (“Arc Logistics” or the “Partnership”) today reported its predecessor financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013.

Arc Logistics Partners LP completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) during the fourth quarter of 2013, and as a result, the third quarter 2013 reporting period relates to the financial and operating results of the Partnership’s predecessor entity, Arc Terminals LP, which are not necessarily representative of the results anticipated for the Partnership following the completion of the IPO and related transactions.

Recent Developments

 

    On November 12, 2013, Arc Logistics Partners LP completed its IPO by selling 6,000,000 common units to the public at an issue price of $19.00 per unit. On November 18, 2013, the Partnership sold 786,869 additional common units pursuant to the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option (together with the IPO, the “Offering”).

 

    In connection with the Offering, the Partnership amended and restated its credit facility (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility has up to $175.0 million of borrowing capacity, an initial term of five years and a $100.0 million accordion feature.

 

    In connection with the closing of the IPO, the Partnership acquired a 10.3% limited liability company interest in Gulf LNG Holdings Group, LLC, which owns a fully contracted liquefied natural gas regasification and storage facility in Pascagoula, MS.

Third Quarter 2013 Financial and Operating Results

 

    Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $12.6 million compared to $5.0 million in the corresponding period in 2012. The increase in revenue is related to the acquisition of the Mobile, AL, Saraland, AL and Brooklyn, NY facilities, the execution of new customer agreements and increased customer activity that occurred in 2013.

 

    Net income for the third quarter 2013 was $1.3 million compared to $0.9 million in the corresponding period in 2012. The increase in net income is related to the higher revenue offset by incremental operating expenses, costs related to the Offering, and one-time acquisition-related expenses.

 

    Adjusted EBITDA was $5.9 million for the third quarter 2013, compared to $2.2 million for the third quarter 2012.

 

    Storage capacity as of September 30, 2013 was 4.9 million barrels compared to 3.2 million barrels for the corresponding date in 2012. This growth is attributable to the acquisition of the Mobile, AL and Brooklyn, NY facilities and the completion of the construction of 150,000 barrels of new storage capacity for a customer in Mobile, AL which went into service in November 2013.

    Throughput activity for the three months ended September 2013 was 76.5 mbpd compared to 38.1 mbpd for the corresponding period in 2012. This increase was due to the acquisition of the Mobile, AL, Saraland, AL and Brooklyn, NY facilities and increased customer activity in the Gulf Coast and East Coast terminals.

Adjusted EBITDA and Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense, as further adjusted for other non-cash charges and unusual or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that management and external users of our condensed consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess: (i) the performance of our assets without regard to the impact of financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis of our assets; (ii) the viability of capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities; (iii) our ability to make distributions; (iv) our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and (v) our ability to incur additional expenses.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net income. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some but not all items that affect net income. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. Please see the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA in the accompanying tables.
