Tulsa, OK - May 8, 2013 - Rose Rock Midstream, L.P. (NYSE: RRMS) today announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
“The year is off to a tremendous start and we are pleased to report a strong quarter which positions us to deliver on our full-year expectations,” said Norm Szydlowski, chief executive officer of Rose Rock Midstream's general partner. “Demand for our assets and services remains strong and we have good visibility for continued growth.”
Rose Rock Midstream reported first quarter 2013 Adjusted EBITDA of $16.4 million, up 66% from the fourth quarter 2012 of $9.9 million, and up 43% from the first quarter 2012 of $11.4 million.
First Quarter Highlights
• | As previously announced, on January 11, 2013, Rose Rock Midstream acquired a 33.3% interest in SemCrude Pipeline, L.L.C., which owns 51% of White Cliffs Pipeline, L.L.C.; |
• | Received $2.9 million in cash distributions from ownership in White Cliffs pipeline; and |
• | Crude marketing margins increased due to improved crude oil market conditions. |
Adjusted gross margin was $22.3 million for the first quarter 2013, up 16% from the fourth quarter 2012 of $19.2 million and 15% above first quarter 2012 Adjusted gross margin of $19.4 million. Adjusted gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures, are reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measures below.
First quarter 2013 net income totaled $12.0 million, compared to $4.6 million for the fourth quarter 2012 and $7.8 million for the first quarter 2012.
Rose Rock Midstream's distributable cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $12.7 million. On April 25, 2013, Rose Rock Midstream increased the partnership's quarterly cash distribution to $0.43 per unit from $0.4025 per unit, effective for the first quarter 2013, resulting in an annualized distribution of $1.72 per unit.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Press Release and the accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow, which may be used periodically by management when discussing our financial results with investors and analysts. The accompanying schedules of this Press Release provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are presented as management believes they provide additional information and metrics relative to the performance of our business.
Operating income (loss) is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted gross margin, net income (loss) and cash provided by (used in) operating activities are the GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA, and net income (loss) is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to distributable cash flow. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA or distributable cash flow in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
Management compensates for the limitation of Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow as analytical tools by reviewing the comparable GAAP measures, understanding the differences between Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow, on the one hand, and operating income (loss), net income (loss) and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, on the other hand, and incorporating this knowledge into its decision-making processes. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that our management uses in evaluating our operating results.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters contained in this Press Release include “forward-looking statements.”
All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this Press Release including the prospects of our industry, our anticipated financial performance, including distributable cash flow, management's plans and objectives for future operations, business prospects, outcome of regulatory proceedings, market conditions and other matters, may constitute forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these expectations will prove to be correct.

Exhibit 99.1
to certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, insufficient cash from operations following the establishment of cash reserves and payment of fees and expenses to pay the minimum quarterly distribution; any sustained reduction in demand for crude oil in markets served by our midstream assets; our ability to obtain new sources of supply of crude oil; competition from other midstream energy companies; our ability to comply with the covenants contained in and maintain certain financial ratios required by our credit facility; our ability to access credit markets; our ability to renew or replace expiring storage contracts; the loss of or a material nonpayment or nonperformance by any of our key customers; the overall forward market for crude oil; the possibility that our hedging activities may result in losses or may have a negative impact on our financial results; hazards or operating risks incidental to the gathering, transporting or storing of crude oil; our failure to comply with new or existing environmental laws or regulations; the possibility that the construction or acquisition of new assets may not result in the corresponding anticipated revenue increases; as well as other risk factors discussed from time to time in each of our documents and reports filed with the SEC.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained in this Press Release, which reflect management's opinions only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to any forward-looking statements.
