Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. Reports Solid Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2008 Results
Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (NYSE:PAA) today reported net income of $98 million, or $0.56 per diluted limited partner unit, for the fourth quarter 2008 and net income of $437 million, or $2.67 per diluted limited partner unit for the full year 2008. Net income for the fourth quarter 2007 was $77 million, or $0.47 per diluted limited partner unit, and net income for the full year 2007 was $365 million, or $2.52 per diluted limited partner unit.
The Partnership reported earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA”) of $213 million and $852 million for the respective fourth-quarter and full-year 2008 periods, compared with reported EBITDA for the comparable 2007 periods of $164 million and $723 million. (See the section of this release entitled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the attached tables for discussion of EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures, and reconciliations of such measures to the comparable GAAP measures.)
"2008 represents another year of solid execution for the Partnership,” stated Greg L. Armstrong, Chairman and CEO of Plains All American. "In addition to delivering solid operating and financial results in a volatile and challenging environment, we consummated two strategic and accretive acquisitions for $731 million, invested approximately $491 million in organic growth capital and increased our limited partner distributions in 2008 by more than 6%.”
Armstrong continued, "Despite challenging domestic and global energy and capital market conditions, PAA’s business model has performed as designed, we continue to have solid demand for our assets and services, and we have a strong capital structure, significant liquidity and healthy distribution coverage. As a result of these factors, we believe that we are well positioned to continue to execute our business plan, continue our track record of performing in-line with operational and financial guidance and create long-term value for our stakeholders.”
Reported results for the periods ended December 31, 2008 were impacted by certain selected items that impact comparability between reporting periods. These items are excluded from adjusted results, as further described in the table below. The fourth quarter’s reported results were also impacted by a number of other items including the carryover impact from recent hurricanes, resolution of pipeline tariff protests, a linefill related gain and various other items that largely offset each other and were not excluded from adjusted results.
The Partnership’s fourth-quarter 2008 adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA were $121 million, $0.74 and $236 million, respectively. The Partnership’s fourth-quarter 2007 adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA were $80 million, $0.50 and $167 million, respectively. On a comparable basis, fourth-quarter 2008 adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA increased 51%, 48% and 41%, respectively, over the corresponding metrics for the fourth quarter 2007.
The Partnership’s adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2008 were $472 million, $2.96 and $887 million, respectively. These metrics for 2007 were $431 million, $3.09 and $779 million, respectively. On a comparative basis, 2008 adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA increased 10% and 14%, respectively, over 2007, while adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit decreased approximately 4% between periods.
The following table summarizes selected items that the Partnership believes impact comparability of financial results between reporting periods:

The proportional allocations by segment require judgment by management and will continue to be based on the business activities that exist during each period. |
(3) Excludes deferred income tax expense and the gains on Rainbow acquisition-related foreign currency and linefill hedges as they do not impact segment profit. |
(4) The equity compensation benefit for the three months and charge for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 excludes the portion of the equity compensation expense represented by grants under the LTIP Plans that, pursuant to the terms of the grant, will be settled in cash only and have no impact on diluted units. The portion of the equity compensation expense attributable to the cash portion of the LTIP Plans for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2008 is less than $1 million and approximately $3 million, respectively. The portion of the equity compensation expense attributable to the cash portion of the LTIP Plans for the three months and year ended December 31, 2007 is $1 million and $5 million, respectively. |
(5) Beginning with the first quarter of 2008, gains and losses from derivative activities related to revalued inventory are included in the line item "Inventory valuation adjustments net of gains and losses from related derivative activities"; gains and losses from derivative activities not related to revalued inventory are included in the line item "Gains and losses from derivative activities". |
(6) Includes a net inventory valuation adjustment of $81 million and $146 million for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2008, respectively. Also includes gains from related derivative activities of $65 million and $134 million for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2008, respectively. |
(7) The gain from derivative activities for both the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2008 includes a $3 million gain related to interest rate derivatives, which is included in interest income and other income (expense), net, but does not impact segment profit. The loss from derivative activities for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2007 includes a $2 million gain and $3 million gain, respectively, related to interest rate derivatives, which is included in interest income and other income (expense), net, but does not impact segment profit. |
Adjusted segment profit for the Transportation segment for the fourth quarter and full year of 2008 increased 40% and 28%, respectively, over corresponding 2007 results due principally to contributions from the Partnership’s Rainbow Pipe Line acquisition, which closed in May 2008, higher average tariffs, an increase in pipeline loss allowance revenue and the impact of a gain related to linefill, partially offset by higher operating expenses.
Adjusted segment profit for the Facilities segment for the fourth quarter and full year of 2008 increased 44% and 34%, respectively, over comparable 2007 metrics primarily due to capacity increases resulting from expansions at the Cushing, St. James and Martinez facilities and the contributions of LPG storage facility acquisitions.
Adjusted segment profit for the Marketing segment for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $58 million representing a 35% increase over the comparable 2007 metrics. The fourth-quarter 2008 results reflect improved gathering margins. The fourth-quarter 2007 results were negatively impacted by the transitional effects of a change in the crude oil market structure. Full-year 2008 adjusted segment profit decreased by 15% from comparable 2007 metrics. Lease gathering margins were stronger in 2008 than 2007. However, the 2007 results benefited from a contango crude oil market structure (which existed during the first half of the year), favorable crude oil differentials and favorable LPG margins.
The Partnership’s basic weighted average units outstanding for the fourth quarter of 2008 totaled 123 million (124 million diluted) as compared to 116 million (117 million diluted) in last year’s fourth quarter. At December 31, 2008, the Partnership had approximately 123 million units outstanding, long-term debt of approximately $3.3 billion and a long-term debt-to-total capitalization ratio of 48%.
The Partnership has declared a quarterly distribution of $0.8925 per unit ($3.57 per unit on an annualized basis) payable February 13, 2009 on its outstanding limited partner units. This distribution payment represents an increase of approximately 5% over the quarterly distribution of $0.85 per unit paid in February 2008 and is unchanged from the November 2008 distribution level.
Prior to its February 12 conference call, the Partnership will furnish a current report on Form 8-K, which will include material in this press release and financial and operational guidance for the first quarter and full year 2009. A copy of the Form 8-K will be available on the Partnership’s website at www.paalp.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this release, the Partnership’s EBITDA disclosure is not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not intended to be used in lieu of GAAP presentations of net income or cash flows from operating activities. EBITDA is presented because we believe it provides additional information with respect to both the performance of our fundamental business activities as well as our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. We also believe that debt holders commonly use EBITDA to analyze Partnership performance. In addition, we present selected items that impact the comparability of our operating results as additional information that may be helpful to your understanding of our financial results. We consider an understanding of these selected items impacting comparability to be material to our evaluation of our operating results and prospects. Although we present selected items that we consider in evaluating our performance, you should also be aware that the items presented do not represent all items that affect comparability between the periods presented. Variations in our operating results are also caused by changes in volumes, prices, exchange rates, mechanical interruptions, acquisitions and numerous other factors. These types of variations are not separately identified in this release, but will be discussed, as applicable, in management’s discussion and analysis of operating results in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income and cash flows from operating activities for the periods presented is included in the tables attached to this release. In addition, the Partnership maintains on its website (www.paalp.com) a reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial information, such as EBITDA, to the most comparable GAAP measures. To access the information, investors should click on the "Investor Relations” link on the Partnership’s home page and then the "Non-GAAP Reconciliation” link on the Investor Relations page.
