Second Quarter 2019 Highlights Include:

  • Net income increased by 32% to $69 million compared to the prior year period, or $0.14 per share
  • Adjusted Net Income increased by 19% to $78 million compared to the pro forma prior year quarter, or $0.15 per share (non-GAAP measure)
  • Adjusted EBITDA increased by 18% to $206 million compared to the pro forma prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)
  • Distributable Cash Flow increased by 9% to $156 million compared to the pro forma prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)
  • Net Debt to trailing twelve months pro forma Adjusted EBITDA ratio was 3.2x at the end of the quarter (non-GAAP measure)
  • Upsized $650 million senior note offering and priced at 5.75% coupon at par with a 2028 maturity resulting in $1.4 billion of liquidity as of June 30, 2019
  • Planning to expand scope of water business into flowback and produced water operations
  • Declared a dividend of $0.3075 per share ($1.23 per share annualized), resulting in a year-over-year increase of 40% and 146% for previous holders of Antero Midstream Partners and Antero Midstream GP LP, respectively

Commenting on Antero Midstream, Paul Rady, Chairman and CEO said, "Antero Midstream continued to deliver its organic growth strategy during the quarter generating 34% and 54% increases in low pressure gathering and compression volumes, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2018. Looking forward, Antero Midstream will continue to organically build out the infrastructure needed to support Antero Resources' development plan which targets a 10% compound annual growth rate in net production at current strip pricing. Antero Resources has announced that is has already achieved material well cost savings this year and has initiatives underway to achieve a 10% to 14% reduction in well costs,  as well as further reductions in lease operating expenses, by 2020.  Antero Resources has announced that it believes these well cost and operating cost reductions will enable it to continue executing its development plan at current strip pricing."

Mr. Rady further added, "Importantly, the integrated development program results in capital efficient spending at both Antero Resources and Antero Midstream, allowing for a strong balance sheet at both entities assuming the current commodity price strip."

For a discussion of the non-GAAP financial measures including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Distributable Cash Flow presented on an actual and pro forma basis, as well as Net Debt, please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Incremental Flowback and Produced Water Services

In conjunction with Antero Resources' well cost initiatives, Antero Midstream plans to expand the scope of its water business to support the growing flowback and produced water volumes from Antero Resources. Antero Midstream plans to implement localized storage and fresh water blending operations, utilize mobile treatment for flowback and produced water volumes in Antero's northern fairway, repurpose portions of the existing fresh water system to transport flowback and produced water, and construct a limited amount of new pipelines to deliver flowback and produced water to localized blending and treatment operations and the Antero Clearwater Facility.  The fresh water blending and mobile treatment options could be implemented as soon as the second half of 2019 in certain areas of development.  The infrastructure buildout will be a flexible, fit-for-purpose system based on Antero Resources' development plan and Antero Midstream believes the system could be phased in beginning in 2020.  These localized operations would replace a significant amount of the flowback and produced volumes trucked by third parties and generate attractive margins and rates of return for Antero Midstream, while also resulting in significant savings for Antero Resources.

Based on ongoing assessments of drilling and completion designs, Antero Resources announced that it expects to trend lower in water used in completion operations over time. Depending on the areas being developed, Antero Resources expects water use will be reduced by 5 to 7 barrels per foot from the current design of 40 to 45 barrels per foot to 35 to 38 barrels per foot in the Marcellus, beginning in January 2020. Based on Antero's expected completion schedule in 2020, this would result in a reduction in Adjusted EBITDA for Antero Midstream of approximately $25 to $35 million.  Importantly, Antero Resources has announced that the savings from completion optimization, combined with other savings initiatives, is forecast to allow Antero Resources to continue targeting its 10% production CAGR, despite the decline in overall commodity prices.  In combination with the expanded scope of produced water services, the continued development plan for Antero Resources is expected to offset a majority of the cash flow impact to Antero Midstream from reduced water use. 

Antero Midstream Second Quarter Financial Results

The previously announced simplification transaction between Antero Midstream GP LP ("AMGP") and Antero Midstream Partners LP ("Antero Midstream Partners") closed on March 12, 2019. GAAP financial results for periods prior to the closing of the simplification transaction reflect the financial results of AMGP. The financial and operating results and comparisons for periods prior to the closing of the simplification transaction that are discussed in this release are based on the pro forma results of Antero Midstream Corporation as if the transaction had occurred on January 1, 2018. GAAP and pro forma financial statements can be found in the back of this release.

Low pressure gathering volumes for the second quarter of 2019 averaged 2,662 MMcf/d, a 34% increase as compared to the prior year quarter.  Compression volumes for the second quarter of 2019 averaged 2,396 MMcf/d, a 54% increase as compared to the second quarter of 2018.  High pressure gathering volumes for the second quarter of 2019 averaged 2,620 MMcf/d, a 36% increase over the second quarter of 2018. The year-over-year increase in gathering and compression volumes was driven by production growth from Antero Resources in Antero Midstream's area of dedication.  Fresh water delivery volumes averaged 122 MBbl/d during the quarter, a 46% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2018, driven by a decrease in Antero Resources' completion activity. During the quarter, Antero Resources released one of its completion crews, which was subsequently recontracted early in the third quarter of 2019 and is expected to drive an increase in completion activity and fresh water delivery volumes in the second half of 2019. Antero Midstream treated an average of 29 MBbl/d of wastewater at the Antero Clearwater Facility during the second quarter of 2019.  

Gross processing volumes from the 50/50 processing and fractionation joint venture with MarkWest (a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX) (the "Joint Venture") averaged 986 MMcf/d for the second quarter of 2019, an increase of 73% compared to the prior year quarter.  The five Sherwood Joint Venture plants operated at 99% utilization for the quarter.  Gross Joint Venture fractionation volumes averaged 27 MBbl/d, a 170% increase compared to the prior year quarter. The year-over-year increase in processing and fractionation volumes is primarily driven by the increase in Antero Resources' rich gas and C3+ NGL production volumes.

Maintenance capital expenditures represent the portion of our estimated capital expenditures associated with (i) the connection of new wells to our gathering and processing systems that we believe will be necessary to offset the natural production declines Antero Resources will experience on all of its wells over time, and (ii) water delivery to new wells necessary to maintain the average throughput volume on our systems.

Gathering and Processing During the second quarter of 2019, Antero Midstream connected 44 wells to its gathering system and Antero Midstream's compression capacity was approximately 88% utilized throughout the quarter. Antero Midstream expects to add 120 MMcf/d of additional compression capacity in the Marcellus Shale during the second half of 2019 to support the anticipated growth in Antero Resources' production. Antero Resources is currently operating four drilling rigs on Antero Midstream dedicated acreage. The Joint Venture's processing capacity is currently 1.0 Bcf/d, which was 99% utilized in the second quarter of 2019. The Sherwood 12 processing plant with 200 MMcf/d of capacity is mechanically complete and will be placed into commercial service in the third quarter on a just-in-time basis to support the anticipated growth in liquids-rich production from Antero Resources. The Joint Venture expects the Sherwood 13 processing plant to be placed into service in the fourth quarter of 2019, bringing the Joint Venture's total processing capacity to 1.4 Bcf/d.

Water Handling and Treatment Antero Midstream's Marcellus water delivery systems serviced 25 well completions during the second quarter of 2019, a 48% decrease from the prior year quarter. During the second quarter, Antero Resources operated three completion crews. During the third quarter Antero Resources added an additional completion crew that is expected to drive an increase in fresh water delivery volumes during the second half of 2019 as compared to the second quarter of 2019. During the quarter, Antero Midstream treated an average of 29 MBbl/d of wastewater at the Antero Clearwater Facility. The facility was voluntarily shut down for approximately two weeks during the quarter for the installation of additional equipment designed to improve the quality and consistency of the byproducts and reduce the associated operating expenses with the disposal of those byproducts. Excluding the shut-down, the Antero Clearwater Facility treated approximately 36 MBbl/d on average during the second quarter.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2019, Antero Midstream had approximately $595 million drawn on its $2.0 billion bank credit facility, resulting in approximately $1.4 billion of liquidity.  Antero Midstream's Net Debt to trailing twelve months pro forma Adjusted EBITDA was 3.2x as of June 30, 2019.

Commenting on Antero Midstream's growth and balance sheet, Michael Kennedy, CFO of Antero Midstream said, "Antero Midstream exited the second quarter with a strong balance sheet with Net Debt to trailing twelve months pro forma Adjusted EBITDA of 3.2x and $1.4 billion of liquidity after a successful upsized senior note offering at an attractive 5.75% coupon.  Consistent with prior expectations, Antero Midstream does not need to access the equity markets to deliver on its organic project backlog and is targeting high single digit return of capital growth to shareholders in 2020 as compared to 2019."

Capital Investments

Total capital expenditures including investments in the Joint Venture were $163 million during the second quarter of 2019. Gathering, compression, and water infrastructure capital investments totaled $125 million and investments in unconsolidated affiliates for the Joint Venture were $38 million during the quarter. Capital invested in gathering systems and related facilities was $82 million and capital invested in water handling and treatment assets was $43 million.

Pro Forma Information

The pro forma information presented herein is for illustrative purposes only. If this simplification transaction had occurred in the past, operating results might have been materially different from those presented in the pro forma financial information. The pro forma financial information should not be relied upon as an indication of operating results that Antero Midstream would have achieved if the simplification transaction had taken place on January 1, 2018.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions

Antero Midstream uses non-GAAP financial measures that are presented on an actual and pro forma basis. The definitions, uses, reconciliations to the nearest GAAP financial measure, and disclosures discussed in this release apply to both an actual and pro forma basis. Antero Midstream uses Adjusted EBITDA as an important indicator of Antero Midstream's performance.  Antero Midstream defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before amortization of customer relationships, impairment expense, interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation expense, accretion, equity-based compensation expense, excluding equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, and including cash distributions from unconsolidated affiliates.

Antero Midstream uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess:

  • the financial performance of Antero Midstream's assets, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;
  • its operating performance and return on capital as compared to other publicly traded companies in the midstream energy sector, without regard to financing or capital structure; and
  • the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects.

Antero Midstream's defines Distributable Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less interest paid, cash reserved for bond interest, income tax withholding upon vesting of Antero Midstream Partners LP equity-based compensation awards and ongoing maintenance capital expenditures paid. Antero Midstream uses Distributable Cash Flow as a performance metric to compare the cash generating performance of Antero Midstream from period to period and to compare the cash generating performance for specific periods to the cash dividends (if any) that are expected to be paid to shareholders.  Distributable Cash Flow does not reflect changes in working capital balances.

Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures.  The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow is Net Income.  The non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered as alternatives to the GAAP measure of Net Income.  Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and have important limitations as an analytical tool because they include some, but not all, items that affect Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA.  You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.  Antero Midstream's definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Antero Midstream defines consolidated net debt as consolidated total debt less cash and cash equivalents.  Antero Midstream views consolidated net debt as an important indicator in evaluating Antero Midstream's financial leverage.

Antero Midstream defines Adjusted Net Income as net income plus amortization of customer contracts and impairment. Antero Midstream believes Adjusted Net Income is useful to investors in evaluating operational trends and its performance relative to other midstream companies. Adjusted Net Income is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income as an indicator of financial performance.
