NGL Energy Partners LP (NYSE:NGL) (“NGL,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Partnership”) today reported its second quarter Fiscal 2025 financial results. Highlights include:

  • Net income for the second quarter of Fiscal 2025 of $3.4 million, compared to net income of $28.3 million for the second quarter of Fiscal 2024
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the second quarter of Fiscal 2025 of $147.3 million, compared to $176.2 million for the second quarter of Fiscal 2024
  • On August 5, 2024, we amended the Term Loan B agreement to reduce the SOFR margin from 4.50% to 3.75%.

Highlights for the period subsequent to September 30, 2024:

  • On November 1, 2024, we commenced operations on our expanded Lea County Express Pipeline system (LEX II).
  • On November 11, 2024, we entered into an agreement to purchase 23,375,000 of our outstanding warrants for approximately $6.9 million. This transaction is expected to close on November 22, 2024.

“We continue to grow our disposed water volumes with the current quarter volumes increasing by approximately 9% over the preceding quarter. As indicated previously, our capital expenditures for the year were front loaded with LEX II so the back half of the fiscal year will generate a majority of our free cash flow. We are on track for the first six months of the fiscal year but are lowering our full year consolidated Adjusted EBITDA(2) guidance to a range of $640 to $650 million, as a result of projected warmer weather, lower crude oil prices and other Liquids Logistics results,” stated Mike Krimbill. “We are seeing continued demand for new water disposal capacity, and our conversations with producers to contract additional volumes on Grand Mesa are going well. We continue to work on additional non-core asset sales,” he added.

(1) See the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this release for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA (as used herein) and a discussion of this non-GAAP financial measure.

(2) Certain of the forward-looking financial measures are provided on a non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation of forward-looking financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event driven transactional and other non-core operating items in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

Water Solutions

Operating income for the Water Solutions segment increased by $13.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase was due primarily to lower losses on the disposal or impairment of assets of $2.0 million in the current period compared to $23.6 million in the prior year period. Also contributing to the increase was an increase in net gains from derivatives. These increases were partially offset by lower disposal revenues due to the timing and recognition of payments made by certain producers for committed volumes not delivered and the prior year period including the acceleration of revenue from the termination of a water disposal contract with a minimum volume commitment. Excluding these items, disposal revenues increased due to an increase in produced water volumes processed on our system. The Partnership processed approximately 2.68 million barrels of produced water per day during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, a 9.8% increase when compared to approximately 2.44 million barrels of water per day processed during the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Revenues from recovered skim oil, including the impact from realized skim oil hedges, totaled $27.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $3.7 million from the prior year period. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in skim oil barrels sold as a result of lower skim oil recovered as certain producers recycled their water for use in their operations, lower realized crude oil prices received from the sale of skim oil barrels and the sale during the prior year quarter of approximately 53,000 barrels of skim oil that were stored at June 30, 2023 due to tighter pipeline specifications.

Operating expenses in the Water Solutions segment decreased $0.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 due primarily to lower chemical expense due to purchasing fewer chemicals and using chemicals more efficiently, as well as lower repairs and maintenance expense due to the timing of repairs and tank cleaning. These decreases were partially offset by higher business insurance expense for remediation costs incurred, higher utilities expense due to increased produced water volumes processed and lower severance taxes in the prior year quarter as a result of a severance tax refund received in September 2023 that related to prior periods. Operating expense per produced barrel processed was $0.22 for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to $0.24 in the comparative quarter last year.

Crude Oil Logistics

Operating income for the Crude Oil Logistics segment increased by $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase was due to net gains on derivative contracts of $4.4 million in the current period compared to net losses of $15.4 million in the prior year period. This was offset by lower margins due to reduced sales volumes as a result of lower production on acreage dedicated to us in the DJ Basin. In addition, margin per barrel decreased due to the selling higher priced inventory into a market in which prices were declining. During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, physical volumes on the Grand Mesa Pipeline averaged approximately 63,000 barrels per day, compared to approximately 70,000 barrels per day for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Liquids Logistics

Operating income for the Liquids Logistics segment decreased by $24.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to lower margins. Butane margins declined primarily due to an increase in derivative losses and the prior year period benefiting from a lower of cost or realizable value adjustment. Margins for propane declined due to lower contracted volumes due to reduced retail customer demand as a result of warmer weather, which was offset by an increase in derivative gains. Margins for refined products declined due to lower customer demand and aggressive pricing by some competitors in certain markets. Margins for other products declined primarily due to selling higher priced biodiesel inventory into a market in which prices were declining and lower derivative gains. In addition, a net gain of $6.9 million related to the sale of two propane terminals was realized in the prior year period.

Corporate and Other

The operating loss for Corporate and Other was lower by $2.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. General and administrative expenses decreased due to lower legal expenses as several large cases ended and the reimbursement of legal expenses relating to a dispute associated with commercial activities in prior periods and a decrease in business insurance. The results for the prior period included gains from derivatives of $3.4 million as we had entered into economic hedges to protect our liquidity positions and leverage from a significant increase in commodity prices.

Capitalization and Liquidity

Total liquidity (cash plus available capacity on our asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL Facility”)) was approximately $251.1 million as of September 30, 2024. Borrowings on the Partnership’s ABL Facility totaled approximately $274.0 million as of September 30, 2024, as we funded certain capital projects and began to build inventory for the blending and heating seasons.

The Partnership is in compliance with all of its debt covenants and has no upcoming debt maturities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to NGL Energy Partners LP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, equity-based compensation expense, revaluation of liabilities and other. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, income before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. We believe that EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our ability to make quarterly distributions to our unitholders and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our financial performance without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as we define them, may not be comparable to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures used by other entities.

For purposes of our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, we make a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is open, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, we reverse the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss and record a realized gain or loss. In our Crude Oil Logistics segment, we purchase certain crude oil barrels using the West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) calendar month average (“CMA”) price and sell the crude oil barrels using the WTI CMA price plus the Argus CMA Differential Roll Component (“CMA Differential Roll”) per our contracts. To eliminate the volatility of the CMA Differential Roll, we entered into derivative instrument positions in January 2021 to secure a margin of approximately $0.20 per barrel on 1.5 million barrels per month from May 2021 through December 2023. Due to the nature of these positions, the cash flow and earnings recognized on a GAAP basis differed from period to period depending on the current crude oil price and future estimated crude oil price which were valued utilizing third-party market quoted prices. We recognized in Adjusted EBITDA the gains and losses from the derivative instrument positions entered into in January 2021 to properly align with the physical margin we hedged each month through the term of this transaction. This representation aligns with management’s evaluation of the transaction. The derivative instrument positions we entered into related to the CMA Differential Roll expired as of December 31, 2023, and we have not entered into any new derivative instrument positions related to the CMA Differential Roll.

As previously reported, for purposes of our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, we did not draw a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives of certain businesses within our Liquids Logistics segment. The primary hedging strategy of these businesses is to hedge against the risk of declines in the value of inventory over the course of the contract cycle, and many of the hedges cover extended periods of time. The “inventory valuation adjustment” row in the reconciliation table reflects the difference between the market value of the inventory of these businesses at the balance sheet date and its cost. We include this in Adjusted EBITDA because the unrealized gains and losses for derivative contracts associated with the inventory of this segment, which are intended primarily to hedge inventory holding risk and are included in net income, also affect Adjusted EBITDA. Beginning April 1, 2024, and going forward, we will now be drawing a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives and will no longer include the activity on the “inventory valuation adjustment” row in the reconciliation table for these certain businesses within our Liquids Logistics segment. This change aligns with how management now views and evaluates the transactions within these businesses and is also consistent with the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA used in our other businesses. If this change was made as of April 1, 2023, Adjusted EBITDA for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2023 would have been $175.8 million and $311.8 million, respectively.

Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA minus maintenance capital expenditures, income tax expense, cash interest expense, preferred unit distributions paid and other. Maintenance capital expenditures represent capital expenditures necessary to maintain the Partnership’s operating capacity. For the CMA Differential Roll transaction, as discussed above, we have included an adjustment to Distributable Cash Flow to reflect, in the period for which they relate, the actual cash flows for the positions that settled that are not being recognized in Adjusted EBITDA. Distributable Cash Flow is a performance metric used by senior management to compare cash flows generated by the Partnership (excluding growth capital expenditures and prior to the establishment of any retained cash reserves by the board of directors of our general partner) to the cash distributions expected to be paid to unitholders. Using this metric, management can quickly compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned cash distributions. This financial measure also is important to investors as an indicator of whether the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain, or support an increase in, quarterly distribution rates. Actual distribution amounts are set by the board of directors of our general partner.

We do not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis where we are unable to provide a meaningful calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measure that have not yet occurred, are out of the Partnership’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements.” All statements other than statements of historical facts included or incorporated herein may constitute forward-looking statements. Actual results could vary significantly from those expressed or implied in such statements and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. While NGL believes such forward-looking statements are reasonable, NGL cannot assure they will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that affect operations, financial performance, and other factors as discussed in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other factors that could impact any forward-looking statements are those risks described in NGL’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other public filings. You are urged to carefully review and consider the cautionary statements and other disclosures made in those filings, specifically those under the heading “Risk Factors.” NGL undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements except as required by law.

NGL provides Adjusted EBITDA guidance that does not include certain charges and costs, which in future periods are generally expected to be similar to the kinds of charges and costs excluded from Adjusted EBITDA in prior periods, such as income taxes, interest and other non-operating items, depreciation and amortization, net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gains and losses on early extinguishment of liabilities, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition expense, revaluation of liabilities and items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring. The exclusion of these charges and costs in future periods will have a significant impact on the Partnership’s Adjusted EBITDA, and the Partnership is not able to provide a reconciliation of its Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss) without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs and the Partnership believes that such reconciliation, if possible, would imply a degree of precision that would be potentially confusing or misleading to investors.
