ENABLE MIDSTREAM REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2014 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Fourth quarter 2014 net income increased 6 percent compared to fourth quarter 2013
Fourth quarter 2014 processed volumes increased 14 percent compared to fourth quarter 2013
Full year 2014 net income increased 18 percent compared to pro forma full year 2013
Full year 2014 distributable cash flow increased 14 percent compared to pro forma full year 2013
Partnership increases quarterly distribution to $0.30875 per unit

OKLAHOMA CITY (Feb. 18, 2015) — Enable Midstream Partners, LP (NYSE: ENBL) today announced financial results for fourth quarter and full year 2014.

Net income attributable to the partnership was $122 million for fourth quarter 2014, an increase of $7 million, or 6 percent, compared to $115 million for fourth quarter 2013. Adjusted EBITDA for fourth quarter 2014 was $198 million, a decrease of $2 million, or 1 percent, compared to $200 million for fourth quarter 2013. Distributable cash flow (DCF) for fourth quarter 2014 was $119 million, a decrease of $16 million, or 12 percent, compared to $135 million for fourth quarter 2013.

For the full year 2014, net income attributable to the partnership was $530 million, an increase of $79 million, or 18 percent, compared to $451 million for pro forma full year 2013. Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2014 was $868 million, an increase of $89 million, or 11 percent, compared to $779 million for pro forma full year 2013. DCF for full year 2014 was $622 million, an increase of $78 million, or 14 percent, compared to $544 million for pro forma full year 2013.




MANAGEMENT PERSPECTIVE

“2014 was a year of strong commercial, operational and financial execution,” said Enable Midstream President and CEO Lynn Bourdon. “Our distributable cash flow for 2014 increased 14 percent compared to pro forma 2013 and exceeded the top end of our outlook. In addition, our most recently announced distribution represents a 7 percent increase over our minimum quarterly distribution.”

“As we begin 2015, the energy industry faces headwinds from lower commodity prices. We have seen several of our major producers reduce their drilling budgets for 2015, and we are already seeing those reductions impact drilling activity around our systems. In response to these market changes, Enable Midstream announced cost reduction measures and an organizational realignment earlier this week designed to better position the partnership for success in this challenging environment. Even with current headwinds, we believe that Enable Midstream is well-positioned for today’s changing market conditions with integrated assets, a strong footprint in high-growth plays, an investment grade balance sheet, significant liquidity and substantial fee-based margin.”

PARTNERSHIP INCREASES QUARTERLY DISTRIBUTION

On Jan. 23, the board of directors of the partnership’s general partner declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.30875 per unit on all outstanding common and subordinated units for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2014. The distribution represents an increase of approximately 2.1 percent over the prior quarter distribution and was paid Feb. 13 to unitholders of record at the close of business on Feb. 4.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS

Even with declining commodity prices, producers remain active in the partnership’s growth areas. Currently, 27 rigs are drilling wells in the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province (SCOOP) scheduled to be connected to the partnership’s gathering systems. According to North Dakota’s Department of Mineral Resources, 93 percent of the rigs active in that state are active in counties in which the partnership operates or is constructing assets.

The partnership continues to invest in infrastructure to support volume increases in the partnership's growth areas. The partnership added 47,000 horsepower of compression in the SCOOP in the fourth quarter, bringing total compression horsepower in that area to over 130,000. The partnership’s Bradley Plant remains on schedule for a first quarter

2


2015 start-up while a recently announced new 200 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d)
plant is now targeted for a first quarter 2016 start-up. In the Bakken Shale, the partnership anticipates its second crude oil gathering system with a capacity of up to 30,000 Bbl/d will commence initial operations during the first quarter of 2015.

The partnership targets fee-based contracts on a firm basis, when possible. For full year 2014, approximately 72 percent of gross margin was generated from contracts that are fee-based and approximately 50 percent of gross margin was attributable to fees associated with firm contracts or contracts with minimum volume commitment features. For 2015, the partnership anticipates approximately 88 percent of gross margin will be either fee-based or hedged.

Earlier this week, the partnership announced a reduction in the size of the organization, a realignment of the partnership’s organizational structure and a consolidation of certain corporate functions to the partnership’s Oklahoma City and Houston offices. Excluding one-time expenses that will primarily be recognized in 2015, the partnership anticipates annual savings associated with these changes of approximately $20 million.

KEY OPERATING STATISTICS

Natural gas gathering volumes were 3.36 trillion British thermal units per day (TBtu/d) in the fourth quarter of 2014, a decrease of 2 percent compared to 3.43 TBtu/d for fourth quarter 2013. The decrease was due primarily to lower gathered volumes on the Ark- La-Tex and Arkoma systems, partially offset by higher gathered volumes on the Anadarko system reflecting increased production from the liquids-rich SCOOP play. Much of the decrease on the Ark-La-Tex and Arkoma systems is expected to be offset by payments under minimum volume commitment contracts.

Natural gas processed volumes were 1.64 TBtu/d in the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of 14 percent compared to 1.44 TBtu/d for fourth quarter 2013. The increase was primarily related to processed volume growth on the Anadarko system, including growth from the SCOOP play.

Gross NGL production was 64.06 thousand barrels per day (MBbl/d) in the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of 5 percent compared to 61.13 MBbl/d for fourth quarter 2013. The increase was primarily related to processed volume growth on the Anadarko system.

Crude oil gathered volumes were 7.46 MBbl/d in the fourth quarter of 2014. The partnership’s first crude gathering system started initial operations in November 2013.

Interstate transportation firm contracted capacity was 7.77 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in the fourth quarter of 2014, a decrease of 1 percent compared to 7.86 Bcf/d for fourth quarter 2013.

Intrastate transportation average deliveries were 1.60 TBtu/d in the fourth quarter of 2014, an increase of 1 percent compared to 1.59 for fourth quarter 2013.


FOURTH QUARTER FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Gross margin was $371 million for fourth quarter 2014, an increase of $33 million compared to $338 million for fourth quarter 2013.

Gathering and processing gross margin was $207 million for fourth quarter 2014, an increase of $4 million compared to $203 million for fourth quarter 2013. The increase in gathering and processing gross margin was primarily a result of higher processed volumes on the Anadarko system and higher crude oil gathered volumes on the crude oil gathering system in the Bakken Shale that started initial operations in November 2013.

Transportation and storage gross margin was $165 million for fourth quarter 2014, an increase of $30 million compared to $135 million for fourth quarter 2013. The increase in transportation and storage gross margin was primarily a result of unrealized gains on derivatives associated with the partnership's hedging program.

Operation and maintenance expense was $144 million for fourth quarter 2014, an increase of $17 million compared to $127 million for fourth quarter 2013. The increase was primarily due to increased payroll expenses to support business growth.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $71 million for fourth quarter 2014, an increase of $7 million compared to $64 million for fourth quarter 2013. The increase was primarily due to additional assets placed into service, including the McClure Plant and the Bakken Shale crude oil gathering system.

Taxes other than income taxes were $15 million for fourth quarter 2014, a decrease of $2 million compared to $17 million for fourth quarter 2013. The decrease was primarily

4


due to lower ad valorem tax assessments partially offset by new assets placed into service.

Interest expense was $20 million for fourth quarter 2014, an increase of $6 million compared to $14 million for fourth quarter 2013. The increase was primarily due to higher interest rates associated with the $1.65 billion of senior notes issued in May 2014 compared to the interest rates associated with the $1.3 billion in term loan facilities these notes were used to repay.

Capital expenditures were $251 million for fourth quarter 2014, compared to $207 million for fourth quarter 2013. Expansion capital expenditures were $196 million for fourth quarter 2014, compared to $160 million for fourth quarter 2013. Maintenance capital expenditures were $57 million for fourth quarter 2014, compared to $47 million for fourth quarter 2013.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The partnership has included the non-GAAP financial measures gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow in this press release based on information in its financial statements.

Gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are supplemental financial measures that management and external users of the partnership’s financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies may use, to assess:
 
The partnership’s operating performance as compared to those of other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to capital structure or historical cost basis;
The ability of the partnership’s assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to its partners;
The partnership’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
The viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.
 
This press release includes a reconciliation of gross margin to revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow to net income attributable to controlling interest, and Adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, on a historical basis and pro forma basis, as applicable, for each of the periods indicated. The partnership believes that the presentation of gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow provides information useful to investors in assessing its financial condition and results of operations. Gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, revenue, cash from operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Additionally, because gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other companies in the partnership’s industry, its definitions of gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, regarding the partnership’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues,
projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. These statements often include the words “could,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “forecast” and similar expressions and are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on the partnership’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. The partnership assumes no obligation to and does not intend to update any forward-looking statements included herein. When considering forward-looking
statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our SEC filings.

(A) This adjustment reflects the acquisition of Enogex on May 1, 2013:
Revenue. The impact of removing the historical amortization and the historical recognition of deferred revenues at May 1, 2013 results in a net increase to revenue of $1 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Cost of Goods Sold, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization. The impact of recognizing liabilities for Enogex loss contracts at May 1, 2013 results in a reduction to cost of goods sold, excluding depreciation and amortization, of $4 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Depreciation and Amortization. As a result of applying purchase accounting to the acquisition of Enogex, property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangible assets were recorded at their fair value, resulting in additional depreciation and amortization expense. The impact of the step-up on depreciation expense is $20 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Interest Expense. The pro forma impact of the amortization of the premium, less the historical recognition of the premium, discount and deferred charges on interest expense, net of historical capitalized interest, is $3 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.

(B) Interest Expense. This adjustment reflects the settlement on May 1, 2013 of certain notes receivable—affiliated companies and notes payable—affiliated companies with CenterPoint Energy and OGE Energy, historically held by the Partnership and Enogex, respectively, decreasing interest expense by a total of $24 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.

(C) Interest Expense. This adjustment reflects the entrance into the $1.05 billion Term Loan Facility on May 1, 2013: this issuance results in an increase in interest expense of $7 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.

(D) Interest Expense. This adjustment reflects the entrance into the Revolving Credit Facility on May 1, 2013: this issuance results in an increase in interest expense of $1 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.

(E) Income Tax Expense. Upon conversion to a limited partnership on May 1, 2013, the Partnership’s earnings are no longer subject to income tax (other than Texas state margin taxes) and are taxable at the individual partner level. The pro forma adjustment to income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013 removes $1.24 billion of historical income tax expense.

(F) Equity in earnings of equity method affiliates. The 25.05% interest in SESH distributed to CenterPoint Energy results in a pro forma reduction to earnings of equity method affiliates of $3 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.
