DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 30, 2018--
Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (“HEP” or the “Partnership”) (NYSE:HEP)
today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2018. Net
income attributable to HEP for the third quarter was $45.0 million
($0.43 per basic and diluted limited partner unit) compared to $42.1
million ($0.66 per basic and diluted limited partner unit) for the third
quarter of 2017.
Distributable cash flow was $66.6 million for the quarter, up $7.4
million, or 12.4% compared to the third quarter of 2017. HEP announced
its 56thconsecutive distribution increase on October 19,
2018, raising the quarterly distribution from $0.660 to $0.665 per unit,
which represents an increase of 3.1% over the distribution for the third
quarter of 2017.
The increase in net income attributable to HEP was primarily due to our
acquisition of the remaining interests in the SLC and Frontier pipelines
in the fourth quarter of 2017 and higher crude oil gathering volumes
around the Permian Basin. These gains were partially offset by higher
interest expense and lower earnings on equity investments. Limited
partners' earnings per unit in the third quarter declined compared to
the third quarter of 2017 despite higher net income attributable to the
partners. This decrease was driven by the issuance of new common units
primarily associated with the incentive distribution rights
simplification transaction on October 31, 2017.
Commenting on our 2018 third quarter results, George Damiris, Chief
Executive Officer, stated, “HEP delivered solid financial results in the
third quarter, which allowed us to maintain our record of consecutive
quarterly distribution increases. Despite seasonal headwinds and the
Woods Cross refinery running at lower throughput, third quarter results
highlight the cash flow stability of HEP’s business model.
“Looking forward, we anticipate higher earnings and distributable cash
flow in the fourth quarter. HEP remains on track to report a
distribution coverage ratio of 1.0x for the full year 2018.”
Third Quarter 2018 Revenue Highlights
Revenues for the quarter were $125.8 million, an increase of $15.4
million compared to the third quarter of 2017. The increase was
primarily attributable to our acquisition of the remaining interests in
the SLC and Frontier pipelines and higher crude oil gathering volumes
around the Permian Basin in New Mexico and Texas, which contributed to
an increase in overall pipeline volumes of 22%.
-
Revenues from our refined product pipelines were $32.0 million,
a decrease of $0.2 million, on shipments averaging 187.1 thousand
barrels per day ("mbpd") compared to 217.3 mbpd for the third quarter
of 2017. The volume decrease was mainly due to pipelines servicing
HollyFrontier Corporation's ("HFC" or "HollyFrontier") Woods Cross
refinery, which had lower throughput due to operational issues at the
refinery during the quarter, lower volumes on pipelines servicing
HFC's Navajo refinery and lower volumes from Delek. Revenue remained
relatively consistent due to contractual minimum revenue commitments
and contractual tariff escalators.
-
Revenues from our intermediate pipelines were $6.8 million, a
decrease of $1.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2017, on
shipments averaging 148.3 mbpd compared to 151.6 mbpd for the third
quarter of 2017. The decreases were mainly attributable to a decrease
in production at HFC's Navajo refinery and a $0.6 million decrease in
deferred revenue realized.
-
Revenues from our crude pipelines were $31.0 million, an
increase of $16.9 million, on shipments averaging 442.1 mbpd compared
to 267.9 mbpd for the third quarter of 2017. The increases were mainly
attributable to our acquisition of the remaining interests in the SLC
and Frontier pipelines in the fourth quarter of 2017 as well as
increased volumes on our crude pipeline systems in New Mexico and
Texas.
-
Revenues from terminal, tankage and loading rack fees were
$36.5 million, an increase of $0.8 million compared to the third
quarter of 2017. Refined products and crude oil terminalled in the
facilities averaged 475.1 mbpd compared to 495.5 mbpd for the third
quarter of 2017. The volume decrease was mainly due to the planned
turnaround at HFC's El Dorado refinery in the third quarter of 2018 as
well as the cessation of HEP's operations at the Tucson terminal in
April 2018.
-
Revenues from refinery processing units were $19.6 million, a
decrease of $1.0 million, on throughputs averaging 65.6 mbpd compared
to 61.5 mbpd for the third quarter of 2017. Although throughput
increased, revenue decreased, driven by lower reimbursable natural gas
costs.
Revenues for the third quarter of 2018 included an immaterial
recognition of prior shortfalls billed to shippers in 2017. As of
September 30, 2018, deferred revenue reflected in our consolidated
balance sheet related to shortfalls billed was $5.7 million.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 Revenue Highlights
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, were $373.4
million, an increase of $48.3 million compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to our
acquisition of the remaining interests in the SLC and Frontier pipelines
and the turnaround at HollyFrontier'sNavajo refinery in the first
quarter of 2017.
-
Revenues from our refined product pipelines were $98.0 million,
an increase of $4.5 million, on shipments averaging 196.5 mbpd
compared to 205.3 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
The volume decrease was mainly due to pipelines servicing HFC's Woods
Cross refinery, which had lower throughput due to operational issues
at the refinery beginning in the first quarter of 2018. These
decreases were partially offset by higher volumes on our product
pipelines in New Mexico due to the turnaround at HFC's Navajo refinery
in the first quarter of 2017. Revenue increased as a result of the
higher volumes on the New Mexico product pipelines and remained
relatively consistent around pipelines servicing HFC's Woods Cross
refinery due to contractual minimum volume commitments.
-
Revenues from our intermediate pipelines were $22.5 million, an
increase of $2.1 million, on shipments averaging 142.4 mbpd compared
to 136.1 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. These
increases were principally due to the turnaround at HFC's Navajo
refinery in the first quarter of 2017.
-
Revenues from our crude pipelines were $87.0 million, an
increase of $39.1 million, on shipments averaging 455.6 mbpd compared
to 268.7 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The
increases were mainly attributable to our acquisition of the remaining
interests in the SLC and Frontier pipelines in the fourth quarter of
2017 as well as increased volumes on our crude pipeline systems in New
Mexico and Texas.
-
Revenues from terminal, tankage and loading rack fees were
$109.0 million, an increase of $3.2 million compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2017. Refined products and crude oil
terminalled in the facilities averaged 477.8 mbpd compared to 489.9
mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Despite the
decrease in volume, revenue increased due to volumes at higher revenue
terminals combined with an adjustment to revenue recognition.
-
Revenues from refinery processing units were $56.9 million, a
decrease of $0.6 million on throughputs averaging 67.9 mbpd compared
to 63.9 mbpd for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Although
throughput increased, revenue decreased, driven by lower reimbursable
natural gas costs.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, included the
recognition of $2.6 million of prior shortfalls billed to shippers in
2017 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 $62.9 million and $189.1 million for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, representing an
increase of $4.2 million and $20.0 million from the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to new
operating costs and expenses related to our acquisition of the remaining
interests in the SLC and Frontier pipelines in the fourth quarter of
2017.
Interest expense was $18.0 million and $53.2 million for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2018, representing an increase of $4.0
million and $11.9 million over the same periods of 2017. These increases
were primarily due to interest expense associated with the private
placement of an additional $100 million in aggregate principal amount of
our 6% Senior Notes due 2024 completed in the third quarter of 2017,
higher average balances outstanding under our senior secured revolving
credit facility and market interest rate increases under that facility.

Prior to the equity restructuring transaction on October 31, 2017,
net income attributable to Holly Energy Partners was allocated
between limited partners and the general partner interest in
accordance with the provisions of the partnership agreement. HEP net
income allocated to the general partner included incentive
distributions that were declared subsequent to quarter end. There
were no distributions made on the general partner interest after
October 31, 2017. No general partner distributions were declared for
the three months ended September 30, 2017, and general partner
distributions of $36.5 million were declared for the nine months
ended September 30, 2017.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
(“EBITDA”) is calculated as net income attributable to Holly Energy
Partners plus (i) interest expense, net of interest income, (ii)
state income tax and (iii) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted
EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA plus loss on early extinguishment of
debt. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not calculations based upon
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, the
amounts included in the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations are
derived from amounts included in our consolidated financial
statements. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as
alternatives to net income attributable to Holly Energy Partners or
operating income, as indications of our operating performance or as
alternatives to operating cash flow as a measure of liquidity.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA are presented here because they are widely used financial
indicators used by investors and analysts to measure performance.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also 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, 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 in our financial
statements as increases to our properties and equipment and
intangible assets at the time of acquisition instead of decreases to
partners’ equity.
