DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Holly Energy Partners, L.P. ("HEP" or the "Partnership") (NYSE:HEP)
today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2017. Net
income attributable to HEP for the third quarter was $42.1 million
($0.66 per basic and diluted limited partner unit) compared to $34.8
million ($0.33 per basic and diluted limited partner unit) for the third
quarter of 2016.
Distributable cash flow was $59.2 million for the quarter, up $10.0
million, or 20.3% compared to the third quarter of 2016. HEP announced
its 52ndconsecutive distribution increase on October 26,
2017, raising the quarterly distribution by $0.0125 to $0.6450 per unit,
which represents an increase of 8.4% over the distribution for the third
quarter of 2016, exceeding HEP's distribution growth target of 8%.
The increase in earnings is primarily due to increased operating income
from our Woods Cross refinery processing units of $8.9 million and
increased earnings from our equity investments of $1.3 million.
Commenting on 2017 third quarter results, George Damiris, Chief
Executive Officer, stated, "We are pleased with our solid financial
performance in the third quarter, which allowed us to maintain our
record of continuous quarterly distribution increases and achieve our
distribution growth target of 8%. We expect to complete our previously
announced acquisition of the remaining interests in SLC and Frontier
pipelines, which supply crude to refineries in the Salt Lake City area,
very shortly.
"We also plan to close on our announced agreement with our general
partner to eliminate the incentive distribution rights held and convert
the 2% general partner interest in HEP into a non-economic interest very
shortly. Eliminating the general partner's IDRs and the economic GP
interest will strongly enhance Holly Energy's ability to pursue growth
opportunities and manage its business over the longterm by decreasing
its cost of capital.
"Looking forward, we will continue to leverage our talented employee
base, our relationship with HollyFrontier and our Mid-Continent,
Northwest and Southwest logistics footprint to generate new organic and
external growth opportunities."
Third Quarter 2017 Revenue Highlights
Revenues for the quarter were $110.4 million, an increase of $17.8
million compared to the third quarter of 2016. The increase is primarily
attributable to the $16.6 million of revenue recorded for the Woods
Cross processing units acquired in the fourth quarter of 2016. Overall
pipeline volumes were up 4% compared to the three months ended September
30, 2016, due to increases in both refined product and intermediate
pipeline shipments.
-
Revenues from our refined product pipelines were $32.2 million,
an increase of $1.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2016 and
shipments averaged 217.3 mbpd compared to 201.5 mbpd for the third
quarter of 2016. Revenues and volumes both increased primarily due to
higher shipments on our New Mexico refined product pipelines, in line
with increased production at HFC's Navajo refinery.
-
Revenues from our intermediate pipelines were $7.8 million, an
increase of $1.2 million, on shipments averaging 151.6 mbpd compared
to 142.4 mbpd for the third quarter of 2016. These volume increases
were principally due to increased shipments on our New Mexico
intermediate pipelines in line with increased production at HFC's
Navajo refinery.
-
Revenues from our crude pipelines were $14.1 million, a
decrease of $2.9 million, on shipments averaging 267.9 mbpd compared
to 271.3 mbpd for the third quarter of 2016. This revenue decrease is
attributable to a $2.9 million one-time reduction in revenue
associated with our crude gathering pipelines. This adjustment will
have no material impact on revenues going forward.
-
Revenues from terminal, tankage and loading rack fees were
$35.7 million, an increase of $1.3 million compared to the third
quarter of 2016. Refined products and crude oil terminalled in the
facilities averaged 495.5 mbpd compared to 505.8 mbpd for the third
quarter of 2016. The revenue increases are mainly due to increased
reimbursable revenue for projects managed by HEP and reimbursed by HFC.
-
Revenues from refinery processing units were $20.6 million, an
increase of $16.4 million on throughputs averaging 61.5 mbpd compared
to 46.5 mbpd for the third quarter of 2016. This increase in revenue
and volume is primarily due to the Woods Cross refinery processing
units acquired in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017, include the
recognition of $0.7 million of prior shortfalls billed to shippers in
2016 as they did not exceed their minimum volume commitments within the
contractual make-up period. As of September 30, 2017, shortfall deferred
revenue reflected in our consolidated balance sheet was $9.3 million.
Such deferred revenue will be recognized in earnings either as (a)
payment for shipments in excess of guaranteed levels, if and to the
extent the pipeline system has the necessary capacity for shipments in
excess of guaranteed levels, or (b) when shipping rights expire unused
over the contractual make-up period.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Revenue Highlights
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, were $325.1
million, an increase of $35.6 million compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to the $44.1
million of revenue recorded for the Woods Cross refinery processing
units acquired in the fourth quarter of 2016, offset by a $9.8 million
decrease in revenues around assets serving HFC's Navajo refinery
primarily due to the substantial turnaround at the Navajo refinery
during the first quarter of 2017.
-
Revenues from our refined product pipelines were $93.5 million,
a decrease of $7.7 million, on shipments averaging 205.3 mbpd compared
to 204.1 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The
decrease in revenues is primarily due to lower volumes on product
pipelines due to the turnaround at HFC's Navajo refinery in the first
quarter of 2017 as well as a higher amount of shortfalls recognized in
revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
-
Revenues from our intermediate pipelines were $20.4 million, a
decrease of $0.5 million, on shipments averaging 136.1 mbpd compared
to 138.3 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. These
revenue and volume decreases were primarily due to the turnaround at
HFC's Navajo refinery in the first quarter of 2017, which was
partially offset by increases in production at the Navajo refinery
after this turnaround.
-
Revenues from our crude pipelines were $47.9 million, a
decrease of $5.2 million, on shipments averaging 268.7 mbpd compared
to 279.0 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Revenues
and volumes decreased principally due to HFC's Navajo refinery
turnaround in the first quarter of 2017, a decrease in deferred
revenue recognized, and the one-time adjustment associated with our
crude gathering lines made in the third quarter of 2017.
-
Revenues from terminal, tankage and loading rack fees were
$105.9 million, an increase of $4.3 million compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2016. Refined products and crude oil
terminalled in the facilities averaged 489.9 mbpd compared to 478.0
mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The volume and
revenue increases are mainly due to our Tulsa crude tanks acquired on
the last day of the first quarter of 2016 offset by the transfer of
the El Paso terminal to HollyFrontier in the first quarter of 2016.
-
Revenues from refinery processing units were $57.5 million, an
increase of $44.6 million on throughputs averaging 63.9 mbpd compared
to 46.4 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The
increase in revenue and volume is primarily due to the Woods Cross
refinery processing units acquired in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, include the
recognition of $3.5 million of prior shortfalls billed to shippers in
2016 as they did not exceed their minimum volume commitments within the
contractual make-up period.
Operating Costs and Expenses Highlights
Operating costs and expenses were $58.6 million and $169.2 million for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, representing
increases of $4.9 million and $20.2 million for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2016. The increases are primarily due to new
operating costs and expenses for our Woods Cross refinery processing
units acquired in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Interest expense was $14.1 million and $41.4 million for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2017, representing a decrease of $0.4
million and an increase of $5.1 million over the same periods of 2016.
The variances are due to the offering of $400 million aggregate
principal 6% senior notes in July 2016, higher average balances
outstanding under our senior secured revolving credit facility during
2017, and market interest rate increases.

On October 19, 2017, we announced that we entered into a definitive
agreement with HEP Logistics Holdings, L.P. ("HEP Logistics"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of HollyFrontier Corporation and the general
partner of HEP, pursuant to which the incentive distribution rights
held by HEP Logistics will be canceled and HEP Logistics' 2% general
partner interest in HEP will be converted into a non-economic
general partner interest in HEP. In consideration, HEP will issue
37,250,000 of our common units to HEP Logistics. We anticipate this
agreement will close prior to the payment of distributions related
to third quarter earnings. Therefore, for purposes of distributions
declared, we did not include any incentive or regular distributions
to the general partner for the third quarter of 2017.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Net income attributable to Holly Energy Partners is allocated
between limited partners and the general partner interest in
accordance with the provisions of the partnership agreement. Net
income allocated to the general partner includes incentive
distributions to be declared subsequent to quarter end. General
partner incentive distributions were $0.0 million and $14.8 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively
and $34.1 million and $38.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
|
|

|
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
("EBITDA") is calculated as net income attributable to Holly Energy
Partners plus (i) interest expense and loss on early extinguishment
of debt, net of interest income, (ii) state income tax and (iii)
depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation based
upon generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, the
amounts included in the EBITDA calculation are derived from amounts
included in our consolidated financial statements. EBITDA should not
be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to Holly
Energy Partners or operating income, as an indication of our
operating performance or as an alternative to operating cash flow as
a measure of liquidity. EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is presented
here because it is a widely used financial indicator used by
investors and analysts to measure performance. EBITDA also is used
by our management for internal analysis and as a basis for
compliance with financial covenants.
|
|
|

Distributable cash flow is not a calculation based upon GAAP.
However, the amounts included in the calculation are derived from
amounts presented in our consolidated financial statements, with the
general exception of maintenance capital expenditures. Distributable
cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative
to net income attributable to Holly Energy Partners or operating
income, as an indication of our operating performance, or as an
alternative to operating cash flow as a measure of liquidity.
Distributable cash flow is not necessarily comparable to similarly
titled measures of other companies. Distributable cash flow is
presented here because it is a widely accepted financial indicator
used by investors to compare partnership performance. It is also
used by management for internal analysis and our performance units.
We believe that this measure provides investors an enhanced
perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash
our business is generating.
|
|
|

Maintenance capital expenditures are capital expenditures made to
replace partially or fully depreciated assets in order to maintain
the existing operating capacity of our assets and to extend their
useful lives. Maintenance capital expenditures include expenditures
required to maintain equipment reliability, tankage and pipeline
integrity, and safety and to address environmental regulations.

As a master limited partnership, we distribute our available cash,
which historically has exceeded our net income attributable to
Holly Energy Partners because depreciation and amortization
expense represents a non-cash charge against income. The result is
a decline in partners' equity since our regular quarterly
distributions have exceeded our quarterly net income attributable
to Holly Energy Partners. Additionally, if the assets contributed
and acquired from HollyFrontier while we were a consolidated
variable interest entity of HollyFrontier had been acquired from
third parties, our acquisition cost in excess of HollyFrontier's
basis in the transferred assets would have been recorded as
increases to our properties and equipment and intangible assets at
the time of acquisition instead of decreases to partners' equity.
