Second Quarter 2024 Highlights:
Guidance:
Hess Midstream LP (NYSE: HESM) (“Hess Midstream” or the "company") today reported second quarter 2024 net income of $160.3 million compared with net income of $147.9 million for the second quarter of 2023. After deduction for noncontrolling interests, net income attributable to Hess Midstream was $49.5 million, or $0.59 basic earnings per Class A share, compared with $0.50 basic earnings per Class A share in the second quarter of 2023. Hess Midstream generated Adjusted EBITDA of $276.5 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $271.6 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow was $156.4 million.
“We delivered strong operational and financial results in the second quarter, driven by Hess Corporation’s Bakken performance, our continued focus on gas capture and solid project execution,” said John Gatling, President and Chief Operating Officer of Hess Midstream. “We are increasing our 2024 gas throughput guidance and reiterating our expectation for substantial volume growth across our oil and gas systems through 2026, which is expected to result in sustained excess free cash flow generation and continued return of capital to our shareholders.”
Hess Midstream’s results contained in this release are consolidated to include the noncontrolling interests in Hess Midstream Operations LP owned by affiliates of Hess Corporation (“Hess”) and Global Infrastructure Partners (“GIP” and together with Hess, the “Sponsors”). We refer to certain results as “attributable to Hess Midstream LP,” which exclude the noncontrolling interests in Hess Midstream Operations LP owned by the Sponsors.
(1) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow are non‑GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA as reported in this release reflects Hess Midstream's new definition of Adjusted EBITDA, which is net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, such as transaction costs, other income and other non‑cash and non‑recurring items, if applicable, which is calculated in a manner consistent with similar measures used by other publicly traded companies. Prior period calculations of Adjusted EBITDA have been recast to conform to the new presentation, as applicable. Definitions and reconciliations of these non‑GAAP measures to GAAP reporting measures appear in the following pages of this release.
Financial Results
Revenues and other income in the second quarter of 2024 were $365.5 million compared with $324.0 million in the prior‑year quarter. Second quarter 2024 affiliate revenues included $23.1 million of pass-through electricity, produced water trucking and disposal costs and certain other fees compared with $18.6 million in the prior-year quarter. Second quarter 2024 revenues and other income were up $41.5 million compared with the prior-year quarter, primarily due to higher physical volumes. The second quarter 2024 results also included a one-time $8.0 million reduction in revenues related to setting the 2024 tariff rates for certain subsystems. Total operating costs and expenses in the second quarter of 2024 were $143.2 million, up from $125.9 million in the prior-year quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to higher maintenance expenses, pass-through expenses, and higher depreciation expense for additional assets placed in service. Interest expense, net of interest income, in the second quarter of 2024 was $49.7 million, up from $43.8 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily attributable to the new $600.0 million 6.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes issued in May 2024, as described below, higher interest rates on the company's credit facilities and higher borrowings on the company's revolving credit facility.
Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $160.3 million, or $0.59 basic earnings per Class A share, after deduction for noncontrolling interests, compared with $0.50 basic earnings per Class A share in the prior-year quarter. Substantially all of income tax expense was attributed to earnings of Class A shares reflective of Hess Midstream's organizational structure. Net cash provided by operating activities for the second quarter of 2024 was $271.6 million.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024 was $276.5 million. Adjusted Free Cash Flow for the second quarter of 2024 was $156.4 million.
During the second quarter of 2024, Hess Midstream Operations LP issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2029. The proceeds from the issuance of the notes were used to reduce indebtedness outstanding under the company's revolving credit facility, with the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2024, Hess Midstream had no drawn balance on its revolving credit facility.
Operational Highlights
Throughput volumes increased 19% for gas gathering and 17% for gas processing in the second quarter of 2024 compared with the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher production and higher gas capture. Throughput volumes increased 23% for crude oil gathering and 17% for terminaling in the second quarter of 2024 compared with the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher production. Water gathering volumes increased 43%, reflecting higher crude oil production and increased utilization of Hess Midstream's water gathering infrastructure.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $72.7 million and were primarily attributable to continued expansion of Hess Midstream's gas compression and related infrastructure. Capital expenditures in the prior-year quarter were $52.1 million and were also primarily attributable to expansion of the company's gas compression and related infrastructure.
Quarterly Cash Distributions
On July 29, 2024, the Board of Directors of Hess Midstream's General Partner declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.6677 per Class A share for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $0.0161 per Class A share as compared with the first quarter of 2024. This quarterly increase includes incremental distribution per Class A share growth utilizing excess Adjusted Free Cash Flow available for distributions following Hess Midstream's accretive $100 million unit repurchase in June 2024 and, on an annualized basis, is significantly above the company's targeted 5% growth in annual distributions per Class A share through 2026. The distribution is expected to be paid on August 14, 2024, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 8, 2024.
Updated Guidance
Hess Midstream continues to target at least 5% annual distribution growth per Class A share through 2026 from this new higher level and continues to prioritize financial strength with a long-term leverage target of 3x Adjusted EBITDA.
Hess Midstream is increasing its gas gathering and gas processing throughput guidance for full year 2024. For 2025 and 2026, Hess Midstream continues to expect organic throughput volume growth across all systems relative to 2024 volume guidance.
Hess Midstream is updating its full year 2024 net income and Adjusted Free Cash Flow guidance to include the impact of an incremental $15 million in expected interest expense on new notes issued in 2024, partially offset by lower interest on the revolving credit facility. The updated net income guidance also includes the impact of an incremental $10 million in expected income tax expense resulting from ownership changes following the previously completed Class B unit repurchase and secondary equity offering transactions.
Hess Midstream is reaffirming its full year 2024 Adjusted EBITDA guidance. Further, Hess Midstream reiterates its guidance of at least 10% per year expected growth in net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow in each of 2025 and 2026. In addition, Hess Midstream reiterates its guidance of annualized growth in gas throughput volumes of approximately 10% from 2024 through 2026, and continued growth in oil throughput volumes of approximately 10% in 2025 and approximately 5% in 2026 as implied in its already-established minimum volume commitments for 2026.

Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non‑GAAP Measures
In addition to our financial information presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), management utilizes certain additional non‑GAAP measures to facilitate comparisons of past performance and future periods. We previously reported the non-GAAP measure of “Adjusted EBITDA”, which we defined as reported net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and our proportional share of depreciation of our equity affiliates, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, such as transaction costs, other income and other non-cash and non-recurring items, if applicable. As this definition varied from other definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, we determined it was appropriate to discontinue reporting Adjusted EBITDA as previously defined. Beginning with the second quarter of 2024, and as presented in this release, “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as reported net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, such as transaction costs, other income and other non‑cash and non‑recurring items, if applicable. We define “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” as Adjusted EBITDA less net interest, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs, cash paid for federal and state income taxes, capital expenditures and ongoing contributions to equity investments. We define "Gross Adjusted EBITDA Margin" as the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to total revenues, less pass-through revenues. We believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these measures as they may assist in assessing our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, financing methods, and assessing the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our shareholders. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP net income or cash flow from operating activities and should not be considered in isolation. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Gross Adjusted EBITDA Margin to reported net income (GAAP), net cash provided by operating activities (GAAP) and gross margin (GAAP), are provided below. Hess Midstream is unable to project net cash provided by operating activities with a reasonable degree of accuracy because this metric includes the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities related to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements that may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occur. Therefore, Hess Midstream is unable to provide projected net cash provided by operating activities, or the related reconciliation of projected Adjusted Free Cash Flow to projected net cash provided by operating activities without unreasonable effort.
