This press release includes the following non-GAAP financial measures: distributable cash flow, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA. Each of these denotes a financial measure not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Each such non-GAAP financial measure is defined below under “Non-GAAP Financial Information”, and each is reconciled to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measures under “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in schedules at the end of this press release.
RECENT HIGHLIGHTS
Net income attributable to partners was $120 million in the third quarter of 2016, or $0.78 per basic and diluted limited partner unit compared to net income attributable to partners of $71 million in the third quarter of 2015, or $0.35 per basic and diluted limited partner unit.
Distributable cash flow was $124 million in the third quarter of 2016 resulting in a distribution coverage ratio of 1.02 times in the third quarter of 2016 and 1.16 times for the trailing 12 months.
Adjusted EBITDA was $132 million in the third quarter of 2016 compared to $167 million in the third quarter of 2015.
The Partnership closed the sale of its non-strategic North Louisiana system for $160 million on July 1, 2016. The sale is expected to be neutral to distributable cash flow for 2016.
The Panola pipeline expansion was placed into service during the third quarter of 2016.
Increasing distributable cash flow target range to between $515 million and $525 million and revising forecasted 2016 adjusted EBITDA target range to between $575 million and $585 million.

“This quarter, the partnership delivered significant operating cost savings and growth in fee based assets, which more than offset anticipated volume declines. Our unwavering DCP 2020 strategy execution and operational excellence focus are substantiated by our strong safety and reliability results, lower costs, and increased fee based earnings. Looking forward to 2017, we will continue to have a steadfast focus on creating value for our unitholders, customers and employees, " said Wouter van Kempen, chairman, CEO and president of the Partnership, and of DCP Midstream, the owner of the Partnership's general partner.
DISTRIBUTION AND DISTRIBUTABLE CASH FLOW
On October 27, 2016, 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 $124 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, provided a 1.02 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 1.16 times.
OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT
Natural Gas Services
Natural Gas Services Segment net income attributable to Partners for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was $116 million and $66 million, respectively.
Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $100 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, from $134 million for the three months ended September 30, 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 September 30, 2016 and 2015 was $48 million and $46 million, respectively.
Adjusted segment EBITDA increased to $50 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, from $48 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, reflecting 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 and earnings from Panola pipeline beginning in February 2016, partially offset by higher operating expenses due to maintenance at our NGL storage facility and timing of expenditures.

2



Wholesale Propane Logistics
Wholesale Propane Logistics Segment net income attributable to Partners was $1 million and $5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
Adjusted segment EBITDA decreased to $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, from $6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, reflecting decreased unit margins and lower propane sales volumes associated with seasonality and commodity derivative activity.
Corporate and Other
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased slightly due to lower borrowings under the Partnership's revolving credit facility. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016 remained flat per the annual fee under the Partnership's services agreement.
CAPITALIZATION, LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING
At September 30, 2016, the Partnership had $2,254 million of total principal long-term debt outstanding composed of senior notes and $179 million of borrowings outstanding under its $1,250 million revolving credit facility. Total available revolver capacity was $1,070 million, all of which was available for working capital and other general partnership purposes. The Partnership's leverage ratio pursuant to its credit facility for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, was approximately 3.3 times. The effective interest rate on the Partnership's overall debt position, as of September 30, 2016, was 3.7 percent. During the third quarter of 2016, the Partnership did not issue any equity to the public.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND INVESTMENTS
The Partnership is revising its 2016 forecasted maintenance capital expenditure range to between $10 million and $15 million.
During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Partnership had total expansion capital expenditures and equity investments totaling approximately $15 million and total maintenance capital expenditures totaling $3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Partnership had total expansion capital expenditures and equity investments totaling approximately $45 million and total maintenance capital expenditures totaling $6 million.

COMMODITY DERIVATIVE ACTIVITY
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.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, commodity derivative activity and total revenues included non-cash losses of $1 million and $83 million, and non-cash losses of $8 million and $105 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. Net hedge cash settlements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, were receipts of $7 million and $78 million. Net hedge cash settlements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, were receipts of $52 million and $162 million.
EARNINGS CALL
The Partnership will hold a conference call to discuss third quarter results on Thursday, November 3, 2016, at 10:00 a.m. ET. The live audio webcast of the conference call and presentation slides can be accessed through the Investors section of DCP Midstream Partners’ website at www.dcppartners.com and the conference call can be accessed by dialing (844) 233-0113 in the United States or (574) 990-1008 outside the United States.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
This press release and the accompanying financial schedules include the following non-GAAP financial measures: distributable cash flow, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA. 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.
We define 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.
We define 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. 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

5


EBITDA equals the sum of the adjusted segment EBITDA reported for each of its segments, plus general and administrative expense.
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 finance maintenance capital expenditures.
