Spectra Energy Reports Third Quarter 2014 Results
Solid Quarter Expect to Exceed Full-Year EBITDA and DCF Targets
Dividend Increase of 10.5% Announced
| Continued growth in distributable cash flow quarter-over-quarter |
| Strong contributions from expansion projects and liquids business |
| Advancing growth projects safely, on time and on budget |
Spectra Energy Corp (NYSE: SE) today reported third quarter 2014 net income from controlling interests of $201 million, or $0.30 diluted EPS, compared with $263 million, or $0.39 diluted EPS in third quarter 2013. Ongoing net income was $209 million, or $0.31 diluted EPS, compared with $283 million, or $0.42 diluted EPS during the prior-year quarter.
For the quarter, reported earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) were $692 million, compared with $735 million in the prior-year quarter. Growth from ongoing capital expansion programs at Spectra Energy Partners (SEP) and DCP Midstream were more than offset by a lower Canadian dollar, larger drop-downs to DCP Midstream Partners (DPM) from DCP Midstream, lower gains from unit issuances by DPM and higher plant turnaround costs in Western Canada.
Distributable cash flow (DCF) for the quarter was $236 million, which was higher than the DCF of $226 million in the same quarter last year.
Spectra Energys third quarter results reflect continued growth in our distributable cash flows driven by our ongoing capital expansion program, and they further bolster our expectation to exceed our full-year $3 billion EBITDA target, said Greg Ebel, chief executive officer, Spectra Energy. Our strong performance year-to-date, coupled with the growth prospects we see going forward, underscores our Boards confidence in our strategy and our ability to deliver reliable cash flows. As a result, we are increasing our quarterly dividend 10.5 percent beginning in the fourth quarter of this year.
BUSINESS UPDATES
Spectra Energy continues its record of successful execution on expansion projects and pursuit of new opportunities to deliver attractive returns for investors. During the third quarter 2014, Spectra Energy placed TEAM South into service, two months before its scheduled in-service date. In addition, TEAM 2014, which will provide customers with the ability to move Marcellus gas production both east and south, is fully operational this month.
Both TEAM South and TEAM 2014, underpinned by contracts with CONSOL, Rice Energy, Chevron and EQT, total more than $500 million in investment. These projects represent the first 600 million cubic feet per day of the 2.4 billion cubic feet (Bcf) per day in projects that will transform Texas Eastern to a bi-directional system by 2017. In addition by January 1, 2015, the Kingsport Expansion Project, which expands Spectra Energys East Tennessee system, and the Spraberry Supply Lateral expansion off the companys Sand Hills natural gas liquids (NGL) line, will go into service.
During the quarter, Spectra Energy moved four new projects totaling $700 million of expansion capital into execution. Access South and Adair Southwest, two projects that advance bi-directional capabilities on Texas Eastern, will provide incremental firm transportation capacity from Appalachian shale to markets in the southern U.S. Access South is fully subscribed with a signed precedent agreement with Rice Energy and Adair Southwest is fully subscribed with a signed precedent agreement with Range Resources. Both projects will be in service by November 2017 with a combined capital expenditure of approximately $350 million.
The Stratton Ridge project, part of the former Gulf Coast LNG opportunity, also moved into execution this past quarter. This Texas Eastern project will deliver supplies to Gulf Coast LNG markets and is moving forward with an anchor shipper to serve Freeport LNG. The more than $200 million capital expansion project is scheduled to be in service in 2019.
The fourth project the company has moved into execution is the recently announced PennEast Pipeline project, a 1 billion cubic feet per day pipeline that will connect northeast Pennsylvania production to the companys Texas Eastern Transmission and Algonquin Gas Transmission systems. The company has committed to take a 10 percent equity ownership in the approximately $1 billion project, which has an anticipated in-service date of November 2017. The investment allows Spectra Energy to leverage existing assets to directly connect to growing northeast Marcellus production, and partner with some of its biggest customers AGL Resources, NJR Pipeline Company, South Jersey Industries, UGI Energy Services and Public Service Enterprise Group (PSEG).
The company also is advancing projects already in execution. The Sabal Trail pipeline into Florida is on schedule to submit the projects Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) application by the end of the year and meet its planned in-service date of 2017. The Algonquin Incremental Market project, or AIM, is 100 percent subscribed by the major local distribution companies (LDCs) in New England. The company expects to receive its FERC certificate in the first quarter of 2015.
The NEXUS pipeline, which will bring supply diversity to the U.S. Midwest and Eastern Canada by delivering Utica and Marcellus gas, has signed precedent agreements with Chesapeake, CNX Gas and Noble in addition to the previously announced agreements with Midwest and Eastern Canadian LDCs. With an in-service date of 2017, the 1.5 Bcf per day project provides Spectra Energy with investment opportunities in the $700 million to $1 billion range.
The Ohio Pipeline Energy Network (OPEN) project and the Uniontown to Gas City project both received environmental assessments from the FERC and expect FERC certificates in the first quarter of 2015. The $500 million OPEN project and the $60 million Uniontown to Gas City project both have scheduled in-service dates in the fourth quarter of 2015.
At Union Gas, the 2015 Dawn-Parkway project is on track. In addition, the 2016 Dawn-Parkway project filed its facilities application with the Ontario Energy Board in September and expects a decision in the first half of 2015. In development is the 2017 Dawn-Parkway project. The company expects to commence an open season to seek market interest in this project by year-end.
The company also is advancing many other projects in development. Access Northeast will provide improved electric reliability in New England by directly supplying approximately 60 percent of the regions most efficient gas-fired power generation. The project will expand the Algonquin and Maritimes & Northeast systems by using their existing footprint. Spectra Energy is partnering with Northeast Utilities in the $3 billion joint venture and is in active discussions with other potential partners.
Yesterday, the company launched an open season on the Texas Eastern South Texas Expansion Project, or STEP. The project is designed to provide an efficient means to transport Louisiana natural gas supplies to high-demand markets in South Texas. The targeted in-service date for STEP is early 2017.
Spectra Energys Appalachia to Market project represents another build out of the Texas Eastern system to the east. An open season for the project resulted in strong expressions of interest and numerous bids, and the company is working with the bidders to determine the optimal solution for moving their gas to market with an anticipated in-service date of 2018.
In its liquids business, the company is continuing development work on the Inland California Express oil transportation project with Questar Corporation, which includes a new rail terminal in Southern California and reactivation of an existing pipeline into the Los Angeles/Long Beach refining complex. The company is in active negotiations with a terminal site landowner and will complete preliminary engineering and submit conditional land-use applications in the next few months. The project has a targeted in-service date of 2017.
The company is also enhancing its Express and Platte pipelines. On Express, Spectra Energy is pursuing the construction of on-system storage to allow for additional contracted capacity. An open season on the Express pipeline enhancement is planned by year-end with service commencing in 2016. And, as announced in October, the company is pursuing a new oil pipeline project with service from Guernsey, Wyo. to Patoka, Ill. The pipeline is targeting an in-service date of 2017 with an initial capacity of approximately 400,000 barrels per day. The project will provide unprecedented access for shippers to reach markets in eastern PADD 2 and the flexibility to meet light crude refinery demand on the Gulf Coast.
DCP Midstream has approximately $2 billion of expansions underway.
SEGMENT RESULTS
Spectra Energy Partners
Spectra Energy Partners reported ongoing third quarter 2014 EBITDA of $422 million, compared with $366 million in third quarter 2013. The 2013 period excludes a special item of $6 million in transaction costs related to the drop-down of assets into Spectra Energy Partners.
Quarterly EBITDA results reflect increased earnings from expansions, primarily on Texas Eastern, such as the New Jersey-New York Expansion and TEAM South, as well as the continued ramp-up of volume on the Sand Hills and Southern Hills NGL pipelines. The increase also reflects higher crude transportation revenues as a result of higher contracted volumes on Express and increased tariff rates on both the Express and Platte pipelines.
Distribution
Distribution reported third quarter 2014 EBITDA of $82 million, compared with $83 million in third quarter 2013. Lower operating and maintenance expense was offset by a lower Canadian dollar in third quarter 2014.
Western Canada Transmission & Processing
Western Canada Transmission & Processing reported third quarter 2014 EBITDA of $156 million, compared with $174 million in third quarter 2013. Higher NGL margins were more than offset by higher plant turnaround costs and the effects of a weaker Canadian dollar.
Field Services
Field Services reported ongoing third quarter 2014 EBITDA of $63 million, compared with $137 million in third quarter 2013. The 2014 period excludes a special item of $12 million resulting from losses on the sale of assets and a goodwill impairment charge. Additional EBITDA associated with new assets was more than offset by an increase in noncontrolling interests as a result of increased drop-downs to DPM, higher reliability costs, as well as the effect of DPM hedges. Additionally, there was a decrease in gains associated with the issuance of partnership units by DPM compared to third quarter 2013.
During the third quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively, DCP Midstreams realized NGL prices averaged $0.90 per gallon for both periods, NYMEX natural gas averaged $4.06 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) versus $3.58 per MMBtu, and crude oil averaged approximately $97 per barrel versus $106 per barrel.
DCP Midstream declared distributions of $57 million to Spectra Energy in third quarter 2014, with year-to-date declared distributions of $177 million.
Other
Other, which is primarily comprised of corporate costs, including benefits and captive insurance, reported ongoing net costs of $19 million and $2 million in the third quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively. The 2013 period excludes a special item of $17 million for MLP transaction costs. The $17 million increase quarter-over-quarter is primarily due to a 2013 benefit from the reversal of an uncertain tax position related to matters prior to the spin-off of Spectra Energy from Duke Energy Corporation.
ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $167 million in the third quarter of 2014 and 2013. Lower capitalized interest from projects placed into service in 2013 and higher debt balances attributable to the debt issued in late September 2013 by Spectra Energy Partners, primarily related to the U.S asset drop-down, were offset by a weaker Canadian dollar.
Income Taxes
Third quarter 2014 income tax expense was $76 million, compared with $85 million reported in the third quarter of 2013. The lower tax expense was primarily due to lower earnings in 2014, partially offset by favorable tax items in 2013 related to changes in Canadian provincial tax rates and the recognition of certain regulatory tax benefits. The effective tax rate was 23 percent in the third quarters of 2014 and 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Expenditures
Total debt outstanding at Spectra Energy as of September 30, 2014, was $14.7 billion. At the end of the quarter, there was $1.3 billion of available liquidity at Spectra Energy Partners and $1.1 billion of available liquidity at all other Spectra Energy subsidiaries.
Total capital and investment spending for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, was $1,658 million, excluding reimbursements from noncontrolling interests. The spending was mainly comprised of approximately $1,016 million of growth capital expenditures and $453 million of maintenance capital expenditures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use ongoing net income from controlling interests and ongoing diluted EPS as measures to evaluate operations of the company. These measures are non-GAAP financial measures as they represent net income from controlling interests and diluted EPS, adjusted for special items. Special items represent certain charges and credits
which we believe will not be recurring on a regular basis. We believe that the presentation of ongoing net income and ongoing diluted EPS provide useful information to investors, as it allows them to more accurately compare our ongoing performance across periods. The most directly comparable GAAP measures for ongoing net income from controlling interests and ongoing diluted EPS are net income from controlling interests and diluted EPS.
The primary performance measure used by us to evaluate segment performance is segment earnings from continuing operations before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). We consider segment EBITDA, which is the GAAP measure used to report segment results, to be a good indicator of each segments operating performance from its continuing operations as it represents the results of our segments operations before depreciation and amortization without regard to financing methods or capital structures. Our segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate EBITDA in the same manner.
We also use ongoing segment EBITDA and Other EBITDA (net costs) as measures of performance. Ongoing segment and Other EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures as they represent reported segment and Other EBITDA adjusted for special items. We believe that the presentation of ongoing segment and Other EBITDA provides useful information to investors, as they allow investors to more accurately compare a segments or Others ongoing performance across periods. The most directly comparable GAAP measures for ongoing segment or Other EBITDA are reported segment or Other EBITDA.
We have also presented Distributable Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of Distributable Cash Flow provides useful information to investors as it represents the cash generation capabilities of the company to support dividend growth. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for Distributable Cash Flow is net income.
The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate these measures in the same manner.
