| |
• | Reported adjusted EBITDA of $64.6 million; distributable cash flow of $52.5 million |
| |
• | Declared distribution of $0.47 per common unit, a 6.8 percent increase over second-quarter 2015 and a 31.5 percent increase over third-quarter 2014 |

FINDLAY, Ohio, Oct. 29, 2015 - MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX) today reported third-quarter 2015 net income attributable to MPLX of $41.5 million, or $0.41 per common limited partner unit, compared with $29.1 million, or $0.37 per common limited partner unit, for the third quarter of 2014. Third-quarter 2015 adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) attributable to MPLX were $64.6 million and distributable cash flow attributable to MPLX was $52.5 million.
As announced on Oct. 20, the board of directors of MPLX's general partner declared a distribution of $0.47 per common unit. This represents an increase of $0.03 per unit, or 6.8 percent, over the second-quarter 2015 distribution and an increase of $0.1125 per unit, or 31.5 percent, over the third-quarter 2014 distribution. Since the partnership's initial public offering in October 2012, the MPLX board has authorized distribution increases for 11 consecutive quarters, representing a compound annual growth rate of 23.6 percent over the minimum quarterly distribution established at the partnership's formation.
“Our strong earnings in the third quarter supported a distribution representing a 31.5 percent increase over the third quarter of last year,” said MPLX Chairman and CEO Gary R. Heminger. “We continue to execute our strategy of accelerating the growth of the partnership and providing our unitholders an attractive distribution growth profile over an extended period of time.”
“We also look forward to finalizing the combination with MarkWest Energy Partners, L.P., which we expect to complete later this year,” Heminger added, noting that the transaction will combine MarkWest's (NYSE: MWE) robust organic growth opportunities with the large and growing $1.6 billion inventory of master limited partnership (MLP) qualifying EBITDA owned by MPLX's sponsor, Marathon Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: MPC).
"This growth will also be supported by MPLX's and MPC's strong financial position, creating a large-cap, diversified MLP," Heminger said. "The strategic combination of our two partnerships will benefit all unitholders and will also bring additional value to the producer customers." Heminger also reiterated the partnership's commitment to maintaining an investment grade credit profile after the combination.
Heminger noted that at the time MPLX announced the combination with MarkWest, the partnership provided distribution growth guidance through 2019. "We remain committed to the growth profile provided in that guidance," Heminger said. "Given the significant change in MLP valuations and the resultant higher yield environment the sector has experienced recently, we now expect dropdown transactions or some form of sponsor support as early as 2016."
Consistent with the previous guidance of a 25 percent compound annual distribution growth rate for the combined entity through 2017, Heminger said MPLX expects distribution growth of 25 percent in 2016.
"We are enthusiastic about MPLX's future," Heminger concluded. "We intend to use our substantial resources to grow the partnership by acquiring assets from MPC or third parties, developing organic projects, and potential strategic combinations. The value opportunity for unitholders is compelling, especially with a strong sponsor that is committed to our success. We will continue to take a disciplined approach to ensuring the value proposition remains attractive for the long term."
Discussion of Results
Revenues increased $10.6 million for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014 due to both higher average tariff rates and transported volumes. MPC and related parties accounted for 91 percent of MPLX's
revenue for the third quarter of 2015, including revenues attributable to volumes shipped by MPC under joint tariffs with third parties. Net income attributable to MPLX for the third quarter rose by $12.4 million over the same period in 2014 due to the acquisition of additional interests in MPLX Pipe Line Holdings LP and increased revenue in the quarter, offset by $4.3 million of transaction costs associated with the proposed combination with MarkWest.
Financial Position and Liquidity
As of Sept. 30, the partnership has full availability under its $1 billion bank revolving credit facility, as well as $90.4 million of cash and cash equivalents. On Oct. 27, MPLX amended its revolving credit facility to accommodate the needs of the partnership following the merger with MarkWest. The amendment will extend the term to five years from the date of the consummation of the merger and increases borrowing capacity on the facility to $2 billion. The amendment is conditioned upon and will become effective only upon the consummation of the merger. The partnership's current liquidity and ready access to the capital markets should provide the partnership with sufficient flexibility to meet its short-term and long-term funding requirements, including expanding its growing base of distributable cash flow through strategic organic growth and acquisitions.
Conference Call
At 2 p.m. EDT today, MPLX will hold a webcast and conference call to discuss the reported results and provide an update on operations. Interested parties may listen to the conference call on MPLX's website at http://www.mplx.com by clicking on the "2015 Third-Quarter Financial Results" link in the "News & Headlines" section.

In addition to our financial information presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management utilizes additional non-GAAP measures to facilitate comparisons of past performance and future periods. This news release and supporting schedules include the non-GAAP measures adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow. We believe certain investors use adjusted EBITDA to evaluate MPLX's financial performance between periods and to compare MPLX's performance to certain competitors. We believe certain investors use distributable cash flow to determine the amount of cash generated from the partnership's operations and available for distribution to its unitholders. These additional financial measures are reconciled from the most directly comparable measures as reported in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, our consolidated financial statements and footnotes.
