ENERGY TRANSFER REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2019 RESULTS


•	Net income attributable to partners of $878 million, reflecting an increase over previous period primarily due to higher operating income and the impact of the simplification transaction.


•	Record Adjusted EBITDA of $2.82 billion, up 25 percent from the second quarter of 2018.


•	Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners of $1.60 billion, up 23 percent from the second quarter of 2018.


•	Distribution coverage ratio of 2.00x, yielding excess coverage of $800 million of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners in excess of distributions.


•	Increases 2019 outlook for Adjusted EBITDA to approximately $10.8 billion to $11.0 billion and reduces capital expenditures to approximately $4.6 billion to $4.8 billion.

Dallas - August 7, 2019 - Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) (“ET” or the “Partnership”) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

ET reported net income attributable to partners for the three months ended June 30, 2019 of $878 million, an increase of $523 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. For the prior period, net income attributable to partners continues to reflect only the amount of net income attributable to the legacy Energy Transfer LP partners prior to the simplification merger transaction of ET and Energy Transfer Operating, L.P. (“ETO”) on October 19, 2018 (the “Merger”).

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $2.82 billion, an increase of $562 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. Results were supported by significant increases in four of the Partnership’s five core segments, with record operating performance in the Partnership’s NGL and refined products segment.

Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $1.60 billion, an increase of $301 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA.

Key accomplishments and current developments:

Operational


•	ET announces its eighth natural gas liquids (NGL) fractionation facility at Mont Belvieu, Texas. Fractionator VIII will be a 150,000 barrel per day fractionator that is scheduled to be in service in the second quarter of 2021. With the addition of Fractionator VIII, ET will have more than one million barrels per day of fractionation capacity at Mont Belvieu.


•	ET announced a binding supplemental open season in July 2019 to solicit additional shipper commitments that would further support a capacity optimization on the Bakken pipeline system.


•	The Permian Express 4 expansion is ongoing, and ET expects to have the project, which adds 120,000 barrels per day of capacity from the Permian Basin to Gulf Coast markets, in-service by the end of the third quarter of 2019.


•	ET and Sunoco LP closed on the JC Nolan Pipeline joint venture in July 2019 and successfully commissioned the diesel fuel pipeline in West Texas this week.


•	Construction is ongoing at ET’s ethane storage tank and chilling facilities in Nederland, Texas with an expected in-service date in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Strategic


•	ET opened an office in Beijing in April and continues to expand its international marketing efforts to meet growing demand for LNG and NGL products.

Financial


•	In July 2019, ET announced a quarterly distribution of $0.305 per unit ($1.220 annualized) on ET common units for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The distribution coverage ratio for the second quarter of 2019 is 2.00x.


•	As of June 30, 2019, ETO’s $6.00 billion revolving credit facilities had an aggregate $3.56 billion of available capacity, and ETO’s leverage ratio, as defined by its credit agreement, was 3.61x.

ET benefits from a portfolio of assets with exceptional product and geographic diversity. The Partnership’s multiple segments generate high-quality, balanced earnings with no single segment contributing more than 30 percent of the Partnership’s consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The great majority of the Partnership’s segment margins are fee-based and therefore have limited commodity price sensitivity.

The Partnership has scheduled a conference call for 8:00 a.m. Central Time, Thursday, August 8, 2019 to discuss its second quarter 2019 results. The conference call will be broadcast live via an internet webcast, which can be accessed through www.energytransfer.com and will also be available for replay on the Partnership’s website for a limited time.

(a)

The closing of the Merger has impacted the Partnership’s calculation of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as well as the number of ET Common Units outstanding and the amount of distributions to be paid to partners for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. In order to provide information on a comparable basis for pre-Merger and post-Merger periods, the Partnership has included certain pro forma information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Pro forma Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners reflects the following merger related impacts:


•	ETO is reflected as a wholly-owned subsidiary and pro forma Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners reflects ETO’s consolidated Distributable Cash Flow (less certain other adjustments);


•	Distributions from Sunoco LP and USAC include distributions to both ET and ETO; and


•	Distributable Cash Flow attributable to noncontrolling interests in our other non-wholly-owned subsidiaries is subtracted from consolidated Distributable Cash Flow to calculate Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners.

Pro forma distributions to partners include actual distributions to legacy ET partners, as well as pro forma distributions to legacy ETO partners. Pro forma distributions to ETO partners are calculated assuming (i) historical ETO common units converted under the terms of the Merger and (ii) distributions on such converted common units were paid at the historical rate paid on ET Common Units.

Pro forma Common Units outstanding include actual Common Units outstanding, in addition to Common Units assumed to be issued in the Merger, which are based on historical ETO common units converted under the terms of the Merger.

(b)

Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and distribution coverage ratio are non-GAAP financial measures used by industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies to assess the financial performance and the operating results of ET’s fundamental business activities and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations, cash flows from operating activities or other GAAP measures.

There are material limitations to using measures such as Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and distribution coverage ratio, including the difficulty associated with using either as the sole measure to compare the results of one company to another, and the inability to analyze certain significant items that directly affect a company’s net income or loss or cash flows. In addition, our calculations of Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and distribution coverage ratio may not be consistent with similarly titled measures of other companies and should be viewed in conjunction with measurements that are computed in accordance with GAAP, such as segment margin, operating income, net income and cash flow from operating activities.

Definition of Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as total partnership earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items, such as non-cash compensation expense, gains and losses on disposals of assets, the allowance for equity funds used during construction, unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities, inventory valuation adjustments, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishments of debt and other non-operating income or expense items. Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for less than wholly-owned subsidiaries based on 100% of the subsidiaries’ results of operations and for unconsolidated affiliates based on our proportionate ownership.

Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to determine our operating performance and, along with other financial and volumetric data, as internal measures for setting annual operating budgets, assessing financial performance of our numerous business locations, as a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition and as a measurement component of incentive compensation.

Definition of Distributable Cash Flow

We define Distributable Cash Flow as net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items, less distributions to preferred unitholders and maintenance capital expenditures. Non-cash items include depreciation, depletion and amortization, non-cash compensation expense, amortization included in interest expense, gains and losses on disposals of assets, the allowance for equity funds used during construction, unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities, inventory valuation adjustments, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishments of debt and deferred income taxes. For unconsolidated affiliates, Distributable Cash Flow reflects the Partnership’s proportionate share of the investee’s distributable cash flow.

Distributable Cash Flow is used by management to evaluate our overall performance. Our partnership agreement requires us to distribute all available cash, and Distributable Cash Flow is calculated to evaluate our ability to fund distributions through cash generated by our operations.

On a consolidated basis, Distributable Cash Flow includes 100% of the Distributable Cash Flow of ET’s consolidated subsidiaries. However, to the extent that noncontrolling interests exist among our subsidiaries, the Distributable Cash Flow generated by our subsidiaries may not be available to be distributed to our partners. In order to reflect the cash flows available for distributions to our partners, we have reported Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, which is calculated by adjusting Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated), as follows:


•	For subsidiaries with publicly traded equity interests, other than ETO, Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated) includes 100% of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to such subsidiary, and Distributable Cash Flow attributable to our partners includes distributions to be received by the parent company with respect to the periods presented.


•	For consolidated joint ventures or similar entities, where the noncontrolling interest is not publicly traded, Distributable Cash Flow (consolidated) includes 100% of Distributable Cash Flow attributable to such subsidiaries, but Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners reflects only the amount of Distributable Cash Flow of such subsidiaries that is attributable to our ownership interest.

For Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, certain transaction-related adjustments and non-recurring expenses that are included in net income are excluded.

Definition of Distribution Coverage Ratio

Distribution coverage ratio for a period is calculated as Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, divided by distributions expected to be paid to the partners of ET in respect of such period.

(c)

The amounts reflected for the six months ended June 30, 2018 includes distributions to unitholders who elected to participate in a plan to forgo a portion of their future potential cash distributions on common units and reinvest those distributions in ETE Series A convertible preferred units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The quarter ended March 31, 2018 was the final quarter of participation in the plan.

SUMMARY ANALYSIS OF QUARTERLY RESULTS BY SEGMENT

(Tabular dollar amounts in millions)

(unaudited)

As a result of the Merger in October 2018, our reportable segments were reevaluated during the quarter ended December 31, 2018 and currently reflect the following segments.



	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018
Segment Adjusted EBITDA:
Intrastate transportation and storage	$	290	$	208
Interstate transportation and storage	460		375
Midstream	412		414
NGL and refined products transportation and services	644		461
Crude oil transportation and services	751		548
Investment in Sunoco LP	152		140
Investment in USAC	105		95
All other	10		21
Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA	$	2,824	$	2,262

In the following analysis of segment operating results, a measure of segment margin is reported for segments with sales revenues. Segment margin is a non-GAAP financial measure and is presented herein to assist in the analysis of segment operating results and particularly to facilitate an understanding of the impacts that changes in sales revenues have on the segment performance measure of Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Segment margin is similar to the GAAP measure of gross margin, except that segment margin excludes charges for depreciation, depletion and amortization.

Following is a reconciliation of our segment margin to operating income, as reported in the Partnership’s consolidated statements of operations:



	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2019			2018
Segment Margin:
Intrastate transportation and storage	$	365		$	267
Interstate transportation and storage	493			378
Midstream	614			593
NGL and refined products transportation and services	764			587
Crude oil transportation and services	909			442
Investment in Sunoco LP	269			310
Investment in USAC	150			147
All other	48			57
Intersegment eliminations	(37		)	(6		)
Total segment margin	3,575			2,775

Less:
Operating expenses	792			772
Depreciation, depletion and amortization	785			694
Selling, general and administrative	179			183
Operating income	$	1,819		$	1,126

Intrastate Transportation and Storage



	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2019			2018
Natural gas transported (BBtu/d)	12,115			10,327
Revenues	$	765		$	813
Cost of products sold	400			546
Segment margin	365			267
Unrealized gains on commodity risk management activities	(26		)	(8		)
Operating expenses, excluding non-cash compensation expense	(47		)	(51		)
Selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding non-cash compensation expense	(7		)	(7		)
Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates	5			7
