Eagle Rock Reports Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results

HOUSTON - Eagle Rock Energy Partners, L.P. (“Eagle Rock” or the “Partnership”) (NASDAQ: EROC) today announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

On July 1, 2014, the Partnership successfully closed the transaction between Eagle Rock and Regency Energy Partners LP ("Regency") (NYSE:RGP), in which Eagle Rock contributed its midstream business to Regency (the "Midstream Business Contribution").

The total consideration received by the Partnership for the Midstream Business Contribution was $1.34 billion and consisted of the following items:

(i)
$576.2 million of cash;
(ii)
8,245,859 Regency common units (valued at approximately $265 million based on the closing price of Regency common units on June 30, 2014); and
(iii)
the exchange of $498.9 million face amount of newly-issued Regency 8.375% Senior Notes due 2019 for $498.9 million face amount of Eagle Rock's existing 8.375% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "EROC Senior Notes").

$51.1 million of existing EROC Senior Notes did not exchange and will remain outstanding; however, the Partnership has amended the indenture pertaining to the EROC Senior Notes to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain events of default.

Cash proceeds from the Partnership’s Midstream Business Contribution were used to pay down borrowings under Eagle Rock's revolving credit facility. As of July 1, 2014, the Partnership's borrowings under the credit facility were $198.6 million, and the Partnership’s total debt balance was $249.7 million with its leverage ratio estimated at approximately 2.0x. In addition, the Partnership currently owns 8,245,859 Regency common units valued at approximately $265 million as of June 30, 2014.

Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results

Effective June 27, 2014 the Midstream Business was classified as held-for-sale and discontinued operations. Except as otherwise noted, the results shown below (including the first quarter 2014 results) reflect only results from continuing operations.

Reported Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $24.9 million, a slight decrease as compared to $26.1 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Reported Distributable Cash Flow from continuing operations of $3.9 million as compared to the $4.6 million for the first quarter of 2014.
Reported a Net Loss of $43.0 million, driven in part by unrealized commodity derivative losses recorded in the quarter.





Including amounts classified as discontinued operations, Adjusted EBITDA was $50.7 million, which was $6.9 million lower than first quarter results. This variance was largely due to the higher than anticipated first quarter contribution from Natural Gas Trading and Marketing, which was divested as part of the Midstream Business Contribution.

The reported Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow (whether discontinued operations or not) excludes the impact of general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with the Partnership’s strategic review and Midstream Business Contribution, which is consistent with the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA under its senior secured credit facility.

Second Quarter 2014 Operating Results

The following second quarter 2014 operating results (and the first quarter 2014 results) reflect the Partnership’s results from continuing operations.

Drilled and completed three gross (1.95 net) operated wells and participated in three gross (0.01 net) non-operated wells in the Mid-Continent region in the second quarter of 2014.  Additionally, conducted seven gross (5.66 net) capital workovers and three gross (3.00 net) recompletions in the second quarter of 2014.
Total production was 6.48 Bcfe in the second quarter of 2014 compared to 6.50 Bcfe in the first quarter of 2014. Average daily production was 71.2 MMcfe/d in the second quarter of 2014 compared to 72.2 MMcfe/d in the first quarter of 2014.
Oil production decreased to 300 MBbl compared to 317 MBbl in the first quarter of 2014.
NGL production increased to 290 MBbl compared to 274 MBbl in the first quarter of 2014.
Natural gas production decreased to 2.94 Bcf compared to 2.95 Bcf in the first quarter of 2014.
The difference in production volumes was in part due to timing of well completions, and third party pipeline curtailments in our Permian and Mid-Continent operations.
Operating expenses in the second quarter were $2.1 million lower compared to the first quarter of 2014 due to lower lease and plant operating cost, severance taxes, and general and administrative expenses.
The Partnership recorded $14.3 million of maintenance capital expenditures in the second quarter of 2014, a decrease of $0.7 million as compared to the first quarter of 2014.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2014 decreased by approximately $9.0 million compared to the first quarter of 2014.  The decrease was primarily due to unrealized losses on commodity derivatives and lower production volumes in the Upstream Business. Overall realized product pricing also negatively impacted the quarter’s results.
Total revenue in the second quarter of 2014, excluding the impact of Eagle Rock's realized and unrealized commodity derivative gains and losses, was $52.1 million, down 6% compared with the $55.2 million for the first quarter of 2014. The decline in production volumes negatively impacted revenue by $0.7 million. Oil and sulfur prices were higher while natural gas and liquid prices were lower which negatively impacted results by $2.4 million.
Recorded an unrealized loss on commodity derivatives of $15.9 million in the second quarter 2014, as compared to an unrealized loss on commodity derivatives of $6.9 million in the first quarter 2014. Unrealized gain (loss) on commodity derivatives is a non-cash, mark-to-market amount.
The Partnership recorded a net loss of approximately $43.0 million for the second quarter of 2014, which was driven in part by the unrealized commodity derivative loss and the $18.6 million loss related to discontinued operations.






Second Quarter Distribution

On July 22, 2014, the Partnership announced it would not pay a distribution for the second quarter of 2014. As previously stated, management intends to recommend to the Board resuming a quarterly distribution for the third quarter of 2014 (which, if approved by the Board, would be payable in November 2014), subject to the general business climate and the Partnership's specific operations and assets (including assets that may be acquired in potential acquisitions). In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, management’s distribution recommendations are subject to the Partnership’s results of operations, projections and the prevailing commodity price levels. All actual future distributions will be determined, declared and paid at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

Capitalization and Liquidity Update

As of June 30, 2014, prior to the Midstream Business Contribution closing, total debt outstanding was approximately $1.319 billion, which consisted of $550 million of senior unsecured notes ($498.9 million classified as held-for-sale and $51.1 million classified as continuing operations) and borrowings of $769 million under the Partnership's senior secured credit facility. As of June 30, 2014, the Partnership’s borrowing base under its senior secured credit facility totaled approximately $819 million, and based on outstanding borrowings and letters of credit, the Partnership had approximately $45.8 million of availability under its senior secured credit facility. Following the close of the Midstream Business Contribution, as of July 1, 2014, total debt outstanding decreased to approximately $249.7 million, due to the exchange of $498.9 million senior unsecured notes and the Partnership’s use of cash proceeds to pay down $576.2 million of the senior secured credit facility. Pursuant to an amendment to the senior secured credit facility in May of 2014, the Partnership’s borrowing base was reduced to $330 million, providing the Partnership $131.4 million of available funds under the credit facility.

As of June 30, 2014, the Partnership had 159.9 million common units outstanding, including 2.5 million unvested restricted common units issued under its Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan.

Guidance

Eagle Rock expects its quarterly General & Administrative expenses to decrease over the next six months to a run rate between $8.2 and $8.7 million per quarter. During the second half of 2014, the Partnership plans to spend approximately $57 million on capital expenditures with $27 million to be categorized as maintenance capital expenditures and $30 million to be categorized as growth capital expenditures. Subject to results from the Partnership’s drilling program, the Partnership expects to average between 73 and 78 MMcfe/d during the second half of 2014.

Hedging Update

The Partnership has not entered into any additional commodity hedges since its last hedging update on February 26, 2014.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release and the accompanying schedules include the non-generally accepted accounting principles, or non-GAAP, financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow. The accompanying non-GAAP financial measures schedules (after the financial schedules) provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP measures such as net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flows from operating activities or any other GAAP measure of liquidity or financial performance.

Eagle Rock defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus or (minus) income tax provision (benefit); interest-net, including realized interest rate risk management instruments and other expense; depreciation, depletion and amortization expense; impairment expense; other operating expense, non-recurring; other non-cash operating and general and administrative expenses, including non-cash compensation related to the Partnership’s equity-based compensation program; unrealized (gains) losses on commodity and interest rate risk management related instruments; (gains) losses on discontinued operations and other (income) expense; excluding certain general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with the Partnership’s strategic review and Midstream Business Contribution.






Eagle Rock uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of its core profitability to assess the financial performance of its assets. Adjusted EBITDA also is used as a supplemental financial measure by external users of Eagle Rock's financial statements such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts. For example, the Partnership's lenders under its revolving credit facility use a variant of its Adjusted EBITDA in a compliance covenant designed to measure the viability of Eagle Rock and its ability to perform under the terms of the revolving credit facility; Eagle Rock, therefore, uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure its compliance with its revolving credit facility. Eagle Rock believes that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that its management uses in evaluating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is useful in determining Eagle Rock's ability to sustain or increase distributions. By excluding unrealized derivative gains (losses), a non-cash, mark-to-market benefit (charge) which represents the change in fair market value of the Partnership's executed derivative instruments and is independent of its assets' performance or cash flow generating ability, Eagle Rock believes Adjusted EBITDA reflects the Partnership's ability to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support its level of indebtedness, make cash distributions to its unitholders and finance its maintenance capital expenditures. Eagle Rock further believes that Adjusted EBITDA also portrays the underlying performance of its operating assets by isolating the performance of its operating assets from the impact of an unrealized, non-cash measure designed to portray the fluctuating inherent value of a financial asset. Similarly, by excluding the impact of non-recurring discontinued operations, Adjusted EBITDA provides users of the Partnership's financial statements a picture of its current assets' cash generation ability, independently from that of assets which are no longer a part of its operations.

Eagle Rock's Adjusted EBITDA definition may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures of other entities, as other entities may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner as Eagle Rock. Eagle Rock has reconciled Adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) at the end of this release.

Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA minus: (i) maintenance capital expenditures; (ii) cash interest expense; (iii) cash income taxes; and (iv) the addition of losses or subtraction of gains relating to other miscellaneous non-cash amounts affecting net income (loss) for the period. Maintenance capital expenditures represent capital expenditures made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets; to meet regulatory requirements; to maintain the existing operating capacity of the Partnership's gathering, processing and treating assets or to maintain the Partnership's natural gas, NGL, crude or sulfur production.

Distributable Cash Flow is a significant performance metric used by senior management to compare cash flows generated by the Partnership (excluding growth capital expenditures and prior to the establishment of any retained cash reserves by the Board of Directors) to the cash distributions expected to be paid to unitholders. Using this metric, management can quickly compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned cash distributions. This financial measure also is important to investors as an indicator of whether the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain or support an increase in quarterly distribution rates. Actual distributions are set by the Board of Directors.

The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Distributable Cash Flow is net income (loss). Eagle Rock's Distributable Cash Flow definition may not be comparable to Distributable Cash Flow or similarly titled measures of other entities, as other entities may not calculate Distributable Cash Flow (and Adjusted EBITDA, on which it builds) in the same manner as Eagle Rock. Eagle Rock





has reconciled Distributable Cash Flow to the GAAP financial measure of net income/(loss) at the end of this release.

In certain portions of this press release, Eagle Rock (a) withheld assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations associated with the Midstream Business Contribution from reported first quarter Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, and (b) added back assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations to reported second quarter 2014 Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow. Because Eagle Rock classified its midstream business as assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2014, adjusting for the assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations when comparing Eagle Rock’s Adjusted EBITDA or Distributable Cash Flow from first quarter to second quarter better portrays the underlying performance of its operating assets by isolating the performance of its operating assets and liabilities from the impact of the Midstream Business Contribution.

Forward-Looking Statements
