Brookfield Infrastructure Reports 2014 Year-End Results

2015 Distribution increased by 10%

February 3, 2015 – Brookfield Infrastructure (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN) today announced its results for the year ended December 31, 2014.

	Three months ended Dec 31					Year ended Dec 31
US$ millions (except per unit amounts)	2014		2013			2014		2013
FFO1	$	180	$	175		$	724	$	682
– per unit2	$	0.86	$	0.83		$	3.45	$	3.30
Net income (loss)	$	67	$	(195	)	$	184	$	(58	)
– per unit3	$	0.28	$	(0.96	)	$	0.67	$	(0.43	)

In 2014, Brookfield Infrastructure earned FFO of $724 million, or $3.45 per unit, compared with $682 million or $3.30 per unit in 2013. On a per unit basis, our results increased by 5% compared to the prior year as organic growth and incremental earnings on capital that we deployed over the past 12 months more than offset the impact of asset sales. On a comparable or ‘same store’ basis, we delivered growth of 11%, driven primarily by growth in our utilities rate base, higher volumes in our transport operations and inflation indexation realized across most of our businesses. With a distribution of $1.92 per unit, these results translated to a 62% payout ratio4.

We reported net income of $184 million ($0.67 per unit3) for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to a net loss of $58 million ($0.43 per unit3) in the prior year. The increase in net income is attributable to higher earnings from operations, partially offset by higher depreciation and income tax expense in the current period, in addition to a one-time charge recorded in the prior year.

“We had another successful year, delivering strong results and establishing new platforms that will enable us to grow and diversify our company in the future. We redeployed proceeds from our capital recycling program into a number of attractive businesses and committed to an investment in a French communication tower infrastructure company,” said Sam Pollock, Chief Executive Officer of Brookfield Infrastructure. “2015 is shaping up to be potentially one of the most active periods for infrastructure investors. The trends we are seeing in the global economy could provide opportunities for step change growth for our business.”

Segment Performance

Brookfield Infrastructure’s utilities segment generated FFO growth of 12% on a comparable basis. In total, we reported $367 million in 2014, which was a decline from $377 million earned in 2013 due to the sale of our Australasian regulated distribution business in the fourth quarter of 2013. We benefited from record connection activity in our UK regulated distribution operations, the commissioning of projects into rate base across all of our operations, inflation indexation and margin improvement programs implemented during the year.

Our transport segment contributed FFO of $392 million this year, compared to $326 million in the prior year. The substantial growth in FFO was primarily the result of new investments in Brazil where we increased our ownership in our toll roads and acquired a rail operation. The segment’s results also reflected higher volumes across most of its operations, aided by a favorable grain harvest in Australia, an increase in light vehicle traffic in South America and higher bulk and container activity in the UK. In addition to the strong volumes experienced in this segment, we also benefited from higher tariffs across our assets.

Our energy segment earned FFO of $68 million in 2014, which was roughly in-line with the prior year’s results of $70 million. We continue to be impacted by a challenging commodity environment that has negatively impacted results at our natural gas transmission operations. This was largely offset by the increased contribution from our district energy operations.

The following table presents net income and FFO by segment:

Acquisitions Update

During the fourth quarter of 2014, we expanded our energy segment following the closing of three previously announced acquisitions including gas storage businesses in California and Texas and a district energy system in Seattle.

In addition, along with institutional partners, we progressed the acquisition of 50% of TDF, the largest independent communication tower infrastructure business in France. The total enterprise value is €3.55 billion, and Brookfield Infrastructure’s equity commitment will be approximately $500 million. We received unanimous Works’ Council approvals in mid-January 2015, and subject to receiving EU and French competition and regulatory approvals, the transaction is expected to close by the end of March 2015.

Increased Distributions

The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.53 per unit, payable on March 31, 2015 to unitholders of record as at the close of business on February 27, 2015. This distribution represents a 10% increase compared to the prior year.

For registered unitholders, distributions are eligible for reinvestment under the Partnership’s Distribution reinvestment plan. Information on this Plan and on declared distributions can be found on Brookfield Infrastructure’s website under Investor Relations/Distributions.

Brookfield Infrastructure operates high quality, long-life assets that generate stable cash flows, require relatively minimal maintenance capital expenditures and, by virtue of barriers to entry and other characteristics, tend to appreciate in value over time. Our current business consists of the ownership and operation of premier utilities, transport and energy assets in North and South America, Australasia, and Europe. We also seek acquisition opportunities in other infrastructure sectors with similar attributes. Brookfield Infrastructure’s payout policy targets 5% to 9% annual growth in distributions. Units trade on the New York and Toronto stock exchanges under the symbols BIP and BIP.UN, respectively.
