RECENT HIGHLIGHTS

Net income attributable to partners was $75 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, or $0.38 per basic and diluted limited partner unit and $312 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, or $1.64 per basic and diluted limited partner unit.
2016 financial results exceeded both the 2016 distributable cash flow target range of $515 million to $525 million and the 2016 adjusted EBITDA target range of $575 million to $585 million.
Distributable cash flow was $120 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, and $537 million for the full year 2016 resulting in a distribution coverage ratio of 1.0 times in the fourth quarter of 2016 and 1.11 times for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA was $151 million in the fourth quarter of 2016 and $594 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.
On January 1, 2017, the Partnership closed a transaction combining the assets and debt of DCP Midstream, LLC (Midstream) with the Partnership (Transaction), creating the largest NGL producer and gas processor in the U.S. with an enterprise value of approximately $11 billion. The combined company was renamed DCP Midstream, LP and on January 23, 2017, the New York Stock Exchange stock ticker symbol was changed to “DCP”.
On January 4, 2017, the Partnership announced the following growth projects:
- Construction of a new 200 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) plant in the DJ Basin, to be named Mewbourn 3, and additional compression and gathering infrastructure in the DJ Basin for $395 million, expected to be in service by the end of 2018.
- Additional field compression and plant bypass infrastructure in the DJ Basin that will add approximately 40 MMcf/d of incremental capacity, expected to be in service during the summer of 2017.
- A 365,000 barrels per day (BPD) NGL capacity expansion project on Sand Hills Pipeline to meet NGL production growth from owned and third party plants in the Permian and Delaware basins, and potential growth from ethane recovery, expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2017.
The Partnership updated its 2017 forecasted adjusted EBITDA target range to between $940 to $1,110 million to include distributions in excess of earnings from unconsolidated affiliates.

“We delivered on our 2016 commitments and finished the year strong with adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow coming in above our 2016 target ranges, resulting in solid distribution coverage of 1.11 times for the year," said Wouter van Kempen, chairman, CEO and president of the Partnership. "We are excited about our recent transaction and the growth opportunities that it provides, paving the way to sustainable distribution growth."

DISTRIBUTION AND DISTRIBUTABLE CASH FLOW

On January 26, 2017, the Partnership announced a quarterly distribution of $0.78 per limited partner unit. This distribution remains unchanged from the previous quarter.

The Partnership's distributable cash flow of $120 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, provided a 1.00 times distribution coverage ratio adjusted for the timing of actual distributions paid during the quarter. The distribution coverage ratio adjusted for the timing of actual distributions paid during the trailing 12 months was 1.11 times. The owners of the Partnership's general partner will receive distributions on the units issued on January 1, 2017, beginning with the first quarter 2017 declared distribution.

FOURTH QUARTER 2016 OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

Natural Gas Services

Natural Gas Services Segment net income attributable to partners for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $66 million and $72 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $120 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, from $135 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, reflecting the expiration of certain direct commodity hedges at the end of the first quarter, lower volumes primarily related to our Eagle Ford and East Texas systems and the disposition of our North Louisiana System. These decreases were partially offset by growth on our DJ Basin system related to the ramp up of both the Lucerne 2 plant which commenced operations in June 2015 and Grand Parkway which commenced operations at the beginning of 2016, commercial activities at our natural gas storage asset in Southeast Texas and lower operating costs due to continued cost savings initiatives.

NGL Logistics

NGL Logistics Segment net income attributable to partners for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $48 million and $50 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $50 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, from $52 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, reflecting higher maintenance on Southern Hills and Sand Hills partially offset by higher pipeline throughput volumes on Southern Hills and Sand Hills due to growth and increased NGL production from new plants placed into service in 2015.

Wholesale Propane Logistics

Wholesale Propane Logistics Segment net income attributable to partners was $7 million and $10 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, from $11 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, reflecting decreased unit margins associated with warmer weather and commodity derivative activity.

Corporate and Other

Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2016 remained flat. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2016 remained flat per the annual fee paid under the Partnership's services agreement.

CAPITALIZATION, LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING

At December 31, 2016 and prior to the Transaction, the Partnership had $2,270 million of total principal long-term debt outstanding, which was comprised of senior notes and $195 million of borrowings outstanding under its $1,250 million revolving credit facility. Total available revolver capacity was $1,031 million, net of $24 million of letters of credit, of which $970 million was available for working capital purposes. The Partnership's leverage ratio pursuant to its credit facility for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, was approximately 3.5 times. The effective interest rate on the Partnership's overall debt position, as of December 31, 2016, was 3.7 percent. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Partnership did not issue any equity to the public.

As part of the Transaction, Midstream contributed its ownership interests in all of its subsidiaries owning operating assets, and $424 million of cash. As consideration the Partnership issued 28,552,480 common units to Midstream and 2,550,644 general partner units to DCP Midstream GP, LP (the General Partner) and assumed $3,150 million of Midstream’s debt. As of February 3, 2017, the Partnership had $5,225 million of total principal long-term debt outstanding. We used a portion of the cash received from the Transaction to repay debt outstanding on our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As of February 3, 2017 we had cash of $271 million.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND INVESTMENTS

During the three months ended December 31, 2016, the Partnership had total expansion capital expenditures and equity investments totaling approximately $11 million and total maintenance capital expenditures totaling $4 million. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Partnership had total expansion capital expenditures and equity investments totaling approximately $56 million and total maintenance capital expenditures totaling $10 million.

COMMODITY DERIVATIVE ACTIVITY

For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, commodity derivative activity and total revenues included non-cash losses of $25 million and $108 million, respectively, and non-cash losses of $25 million and $130 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, respectively. Net hedge cash settlements for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, were receipts of $10 million and $88 million, respectively. Net hedge cash settlements for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, were receipts of $53 million and $215 million, respectively.

The objective of the Partnership's commodity risk management program is to protect downside risk in its distributable cash flow. The Partnership utilizes mark-to-market accounting treatment for its commodity derivative instruments. Mark-to-market accounting rules require companies to record currently in earnings the difference between their contracted future derivative settlement prices and the forward prices of the underlying commodities at the end of the accounting period. Revaluing the Partnership's commodity derivative instruments based on futures pricing at the end of the period creates assets or liabilities and associated non-cash gains or losses. Realized gains or losses from cash settlement of the derivative contracts occur monthly as the Partnership's physical commodity sales are realized or when the Partnership rebalances its portfolio. Non-cash gains or losses associated with the mark-to-market accounting treatment of the Partnership's commodity derivative instruments do not affect its distributable cash flow.

EARNINGS CALL

The Partnership will host a conference call webcast at 11:00 a.m. EST on Tuesday, February 14, to discuss DCP’s fourth quarter and year-end 2016 results, which will be released earlier that day, and provide additional information regarding its 2017 financial plan.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

This press release and the accompanying financial schedules include the following non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted EBITDA, adjusted segment EBITDA and distributable cash flow. The accompanying schedules provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The Partnership's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to its financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, including operating revenues, net income or loss attributable to partners, net cash provided by or used in operating activities or any other measure of liquidity or financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance, liquidity or ability to service debt obligations and make cash distributions to unitholders. The non-GAAP financial measures presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate their measures in the same manner.

Following the Transaction, adjusted EBITDA for the newly combined Partnership will be defined as net income or loss attributable to partners adjusted for (i) distributions from unconsolidated affiliates, net of earnings (ii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iii) net interest expense, (iv) noncontrolling interest in depreciation and income tax expense, (v) unrealized gains and losses from commodity derivatives, (vi) income tax expense or benefit, (vii) impairment expense and (viii) certain other non-cash items. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes items of income or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations. Management believes these measures provide investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations.

For 2016 and prior periods, the Partnership defined adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss attributable to partners less interest income, noncontrolling interest in depreciation and income tax expense, non-cash commodity derivative gains, plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, non-cash commodity derivative losses, and certain other items.

The commodity derivative non-cash losses and gains result from the marking to market of certain financial derivatives used by us for risk management purposes that we do not account for under the hedge method of accounting. These non-cash losses or gains may or may not be realized in future periods when the derivative contracts are settled, due to fluctuating commodity prices.

Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental liquidity and performance measure and adjusted segment EBITDA is used as a supplemental performance measure by the Partnership's management and by external users of its financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others to assess:

financial performance of the Partnership's assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;
the Partnership's operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing methods or capital structure;
viability and performance of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on investment opportunities;
performance of the Partnership's business excluding non-cash commodity derivative gains or losses; and
in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, the ability of the Partnership's assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support its indebtedness, make cash distributions to its unitholders and general partner, and pay maintenance capital expenditures.

We define adjusted segment EBITDA for each segment as segment net income or loss attributable to partners plus or minus adjustments for non-cash mark-to-market of commodity derivative instruments for that segment, plus depreciation and amortization expense, and certain other items for that segment, adjusted for any noncontrolling interest portion of depreciation, amortization and income tax expense for that segment. The Partnership's adjusted EBITDA equals the sum of the adjusted segment EBITDA reported for each of its segments, plus general and administrative expense.

Following the Transaction, distributable cash flow will be defined as adjusted EBITDA less maintenance capital expenditures, cash portion of interest expense, the impact of minimum volume receipt for throughput commitments and certain other items.

For 2016 and prior periods, the Partnership defined distributable cash flow as net cash provided by or used in operating activities, less maintenance capital expenditures, net of reimbursable projects, plus or minus adjustments for non-cash mark-to-market of derivative instruments, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests net of depreciation and income tax, net changes in operating assets and liabilities, other adjustments to reconcile net cash provided by or used in operating activities, and certain other items.

Maintenance capital expenditures are cash expenditures made to maintain the Partnership's cash flows, operating capacity or earnings capacity. These expenditures add on to or improve capital assets owned, including certain system integrity, compliance and safety improvements. Maintenance capital expenditures also include certain well connects, and may include the acquisition or construction of new capital assets. Non-cash mark-to-market of derivative instruments is considered to be non-cash for the purpose of computing distributable cash flow because settlement will not occur until future periods, and will be impacted by future changes in commodity prices and interest rates. We compare the distributable cash flow we generate to the cash distributions we expect to pay and have paid to our partners. Using this metric, we compute our distribution coverage ratio. Distributable cash flow is used as a supplemental liquidity and performance measure by the Partnership's management and by external users of its financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to assess the Partnership's ability to make cash distributions to its unitholders and its general partner.
