    Successfully advancing $8 billion in expansion projects in execution

 

    Third quarter 2016 dividend of $0.405 per share, compared with $0.37 per share in third quarter 2015

For the quarter, ongoing earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) were $692 million, compared with $634 million in the prior-year quarter.

Ongoing distributable cash flow for the quarter was $280 million, compared with $223 million in the same quarter last year.

For the quarter, ongoing net income from controlling interests was $220 million, or $0.31 diluted earnings per share, compared with $156 million, or $0.23 diluted earnings per share, in third quarter 2015.

CEO COMMENT

“Spectra Energy delivered yet another solid quarter, with ongoing results very much in line with our full-year expectations. The strength of our base businesses and growth from our robust expansion program continue to provide outstanding value to investors,” said Greg Ebel, chief executive officer, Spectra Energy.

“We have a track record of delivering projects on time and on budget, and we have built on that reputation with projects we placed into service in the third quarter and those scheduled to be in service in the fourth quarter. This is a testament to our execution model, our team, and the strategic value of being able to build upon our existing asset footprint. These expansion projects and the reliable, affordable energy they will supply across North America will serve customers and investors for decades to come. We are equally pleased with the fact that DCP Midstream has already achieved its 35-cent NGL break-even target.

“As we progress toward completing our proposed merger with Enbridge, we remain highly confident in the strategic value of the combination and the ability of the ‘new’ Enbridge to deliver on the benefits that we outlined for investors when we announced the transaction in September.”

SEGMENT RESULTS

Spectra Energy Partners

Ongoing EBITDA from Spectra Energy Partners was $502 million in third quarter 2016, compared with $488 million in third quarter 2015. Third quarter 2016 results exclude a special item of $38 million in expense. These results reflect increased earnings from expansion projects, partially offset by the absence of equity earnings from Sand Hills and Southern Hills natural gas liquids (NGL)


pipelines, which Spectra Energy Partners owned until October 2015. Earnings from these NGL pipeline interests have been reflected in the Field Services segment.

Distribution

Distribution EBITDA was $77 million in third quarter 2016, compared with $70 million in third quarter 2015. This increase was mainly due to incremental earnings from the 2015 Dawn-Parkway expansion project and higher storage margins.

Western Canada Transmission & Processing

Ongoing EBITDA from Western Canada Transmission & Processing was $109 million in third quarter 2016, compared with $117 million in third quarter 2015. The 2016 period excludes special items of $16 million, which unfavorably affected EBITDA. The segment’s results largely reflect lower gathering and processing revenues.

Field Services

Ongoing EBITDA from Field Services was $15 million in third quarter 2016, compared with $(29) million in third quarter 2015. The 2016 and 2015 periods exclude special items of $3 million in net expenses and $26 million in net gains, respectively. The segment’s results are primarily attributable to favorable contract realignment efforts, continued cost-saving initiatives and asset growth, partially offset by volume declines in certain geographic regions. As a reminder, Spectra Energy’s EBITDA from Field Services represents the company’s 50 percent share of DCP Midstream’s net income plus gains from DPM unit issuances.

During the third quarters of 2016 and 2015, respectively, NGL prices averaged $0.45 per gallon versus $0.42 per gallon, NYMEX natural gas averaged $2.81 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) versus $2.77 per MMBtu, and crude oil averaged approximately $45 per barrel versus $46 per barrel.


Other

Ongoing net expenses from “Other” were $11 million and $12 million in third quarters 2016 and 2015, respectively. The 2016 period excludes a special item of $19 million in expense. “Other” primarily consists of corporate expenses, including benefits and captive insurance.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $133 million in third quarter 2016, compared with $155 million in third quarter 2015, primarily due to a reversal of an interest accrual related to the release of tax reserves.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $10 million in third quarter 2016, compared with $70 million in third quarter 2015, with effective tax rates of 3 percent and 22 percent, respectively. The release of tax reserves contributed to the lower tax expense and lower rate in the quarter. The 2016 period also included a $27 million tax benefit reported as a special item related to the sale of Empress.

Foreign Currency

Net income from controlling interests for the quarter was higher by $4 million.

Liquidity and Capital Expenditures

Total debt outstanding at Spectra Energy as of September 30, 2016, was $15.2 billion, with available liquidity of $5.2 billion. Available liquidity includes a $2 billion credit facility executed at Spectra Energy Capital in September 2016.

Including contributions from noncontrolling interests, Spectra Energy has $3.0 billion of capital expansion spending planned in 2016, $1.8 billion of which will be at Spectra Energy Partners. Including contributions from noncontrolling interests of $437 million, total capital spending for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, was $2.15 billion, comprised of $1.73 billion of growth capital expenditures and $417 million of maintenance capital expenditures.


EXPANSION PROJECT UPDATES

By the end of 2016, the company will have:

 

    $12 billion – in service and delivering solid cash flows

 

    $8 billion – in execution

 

    $20+ billion – in development

U.S. Projects

Spectra Energy Partners placed the Loudon Expansion into service on time in September, while the Express Enhancement and phase one of Gulf Markets came online in October – both earlier than expected. Additionally, the Salem Lateral went into service in October. The AIM project is intended to be fully in service in the fourth quarter.

Construction on Sabal Trail began in the third quarter, with the project scheduled to be placed into service in the first half of 2017.

In the third quarter, Spectra Energy Partners received the FERC Environmental Assessment for Access South, Adair Southwest, and Lebanon Extension, keeping these projects on target for in-service in the second half of 2017.

Atlantic Bridge is expected to receive its FERC certificate in the fourth quarter, keeping the project on schedule for a second half of 2017 in-service date.

FERC certificates are expected for the NEXUS and TEAL projects in the first quarter of 2017, with in-service scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2017.

The Bayway Lateral project is on schedule for its first half of 2018 in-service, and PennEast continues to make progress toward being placed into service in the second half of 2018.


The Valley Crossing Pipeline project continues to advance, and is in the process of submitting the necessary regulatory applications. It has begun right of way acquisitions, and continues to progress toward its second half of 2018 in-service date.

Development work also continues in New England with the Access Northeast project, which is designed to both physically and contractually serve the needs of New England power generators by providing significant additional natural gas transmission capacity into the region, and will improve reliability and save consumers an average of $1 billion a year in energy costs during a normal winter.

The Independent System Operator in New England, which is responsible for operating the electric grid, recently stated that New England’s power generation situation is “precarious” during the winter months, and that by 2019 – without immediate action to solidify the region’s energy infrastructure – it may be unsustainable during extreme cold conditions.

Spectra Energy – along with co-developers Eversource and National Grid – are extremely disappointed by some of the recent actions by certain New England states. Despite this, Access Northeast remains the solution for the region, and Spectra Energy remains committed to delivering the reliable and affordable energy to help consumers and to help each state meet its energy and environmental goals.

Distribution

At Union Gas, both the Burlington-Oakville and 2016 Dawn-Parkway projects were placed in service this week.

The 2017 Dawn-Parkway expansion continues to make progress toward its second half of 2017 in-service date, as does the Panhandle Reinforcement project.


Western Canada

High Pine received its National Energy Board (NEB) approval in August. With this approval, the construction timeline has shifted, moving the in-service date of this project from the first half of 2017 to the second half of 2017.

In the third quarter, construction began on Jackfish Lake, which will be placed into service in the first half of 2017, and on the RAM project, which will be phased into service through 2018.

The Wyndwood project submitted its application to the NEB in October, and is on track for its first half of 2018 in-service.

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, excluding 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 from controlling interests and ongoing diluted EPS provides useful information to investors, as it allows investors 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.

We use earnings from continuing operations before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and ongoing EBITDA, non-GAAP financial measures, as performance measures for Spectra Energy Corp. Ongoing EBITDA represents EBITDA, excluding special items. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and ongoing EBITDA provides useful information to investors, as it allows investors to more accurately compare Spectra Energy Corp’s performance across periods. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for EBITDA and ongoing EBITDA for Spectra Energy Corp is net income.

The primary performance measures used by us to evaluate segment performance are segment EBITDA and Other EBITDA. We consider segment EBITDA and Other EBITDA, which are the GAAP measures used to report segment results, to be good indicators of each segment’s operating performance from its continuing operations as they represent the results of our segments’ operations before depreciation and amortization without regard to financing methods or capital structures. Our segment EBITDA and Other 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 ongoing Other EBITDA (net expenses) as measures of performance. Ongoing segment EBITDA and ongoing


Other EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures, as they represent segment EBITDA and Other EBITDA, excluding special items. We believe that the presentation of ongoing segment EBITDA and ongoing Other EBITDA provides useful information to investors, as it allows investors to more accurately compare a segment’s or Other’s ongoing performance across periods. The most directly comparable GAAP measures for ongoing segment EBITDA and ongoing Other EBITDA are segment EBITDA and Other EBITDA.

We also present Distributable Cash Flow (DCF), which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the presentation of DCF provides useful information to investors, as it represents the cash generation capabilities of the company to support dividend growth. We also use ongoing DCF, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as it represents DCF, excluding the cash effect of special items. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for DCF and ongoing DCF is net income. We also use DCF coverage, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as it represents DCF divided by dividends declared on common stock. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for DCF coverage is EPS.

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.
