Logistics & Storage
L&S segment income from operations and adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2019 increased by $245 million and $302 million, respectively, compared with the same period in 2018. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of ANDX and the continued solid performance of the underlying base business.
Total pipeline throughputs were 5.2 million barrels per day in the third quarter. The average tariff rate was $0.90 per barrel for the quarter. Terminal throughput was 3.3 million barrels per day for the quarter.
Gathering & Processing
G&P segment income from operations and segment adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2019 increased by $9 million and $34 million, respectively, compared with the same period in 2018. Year-over-year results increased due to the ANDX acquisition and higher volumes partially offset by a significant decline in weighted average NGL prices. In the third quarter of 2019:
• | Gathered volumes: 6.3 billion cubic feet per day |
• | Processed volumes: 8.8 billion cubic feet per day |
• | Fractionated volumes: 547 thousand barrels per day |
In the Marcellus and Utica, the company continued to experience significant year-over-year growth. Gathered volumes averaged 3.7 billion cubic feet per day (bcf/d) for the quarter, a 16 percent increase versus the third quarter of 2018. Processed volumes averaged 6.2 bcf/d, a 13 percent increase versus the same quarter last year, driven by high utilization across the company's Marcellus operations. Fractionated volumes averaged 482 thousand barrels per day, a 6 percent increase versus the third quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily driven by higher volumes at the expanded Hopedale Complex.
In the Southwest, gathered volumes averaged 1.7 bcf/d for the third quarter, a 3 percent increase versus the third quarter of 2018. Processed volumes averaged 1.7 bcf/d for the quarter, a 13 percent increase versus the third quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily the result of higher volumes in the Permian.
In the Bakken, gathered volumes averaged 149 mmcf/d for the third quarter. Processed volumes averaged 149 mmcf/d for the quarter.
In the Rockies, gathered volumes averaged 827 mmcf/d for the third quarter. Processed volumes averaged 568 mmcf/d for the quarter.
Strategic Update
MPC announced that it is forming a special committee of its Board of Directors, led by J. Mike Stice, to continue to evaluate alternatives to enhance value across its midstream business.
MPLX announced that it has completed its plan to high-grade its capital expenditures, focusing on the most attractive returns. For 2020, MPLX is targeting growth capex of approximately $2.0 billion.

In the L&S segment, MPLX continues to advance its strategy of creating integrated crude oil and natural gas logistics systems from the Permian to the U.S. Gulf Coast. The Wink-to-Webster crude oil pipeline, in which MPLX has an equity interest, remains on schedule to be competed in the first half of 2021. The 36-inch diameter pipeline will originate in the Permian Basin and have destination points in the Houston market, including Marathon Petroleum Corporation's (NYSE: MPC) Galveston Bay refinery.
Also in the Permian, the Whistler Pipeline is being designed to transport approximately 2 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from Waha, Texas to the Agua Dulce market in South Texas, ultimately reaching MPC’s Galveston Bay refinery. MPLX has an equity interest in Whistler, which is expected to be placed in service in the second half of 2021.
To support additional growth in the G&P segment, MPLX placed into service the Sherwood 12 and Torñado processing plants in October, adding 400 million cubic feet per day of capacity. The company expects to complete the Sherwood 13 processing plant late in the fourth quarter of 2019, adding another 200 million cubic feet per day of incremental capacity. Also, MPLX has two additional plants under various stages of development in the Permian.
Financial Position and Liquidity
As of September 30, 2019, MPLX had $41 million in cash, $3.5 billion available through its bank revolving credit facility expiring in July 2024, $1.4 billion available through its intercompany loan agreement with MPC, and $500 million of capacity available through its new bank term loan facility. The company's leverage ratio was 4.0x at September 30, 2019.
As a result of the completion of the ANDX acquisition, MPLX assumed an aggregate principal amount of $3.75 billion senior notes issued by ANDX. On September 23, 2019, approximately $3.06 billion aggregate principal amount of ANDX's outstanding senior notes were exchanged for new unsecured notes issued by MPLX having the same maturity and interest rates as the previously outstanding ANDX notes and cash as part of an exchange offer and consent solicitation undertaken by MPLX and ANDX.
During the quarter, MPLX also issued $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes in an underwritten public offering consisting of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior notes due 2021 and $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior notes due 2022. In addition, on September 26, 2019, MPLX entered into a term loan agreement with a syndicate of lenders providing for a committed term loan facility for up to an aggregate of $1.0 billion. MPLX borrowed $500 million under the term loan agreement during the quarter.
MPLX used a portion of the net proceeds from the notes offering and borrowings under the term loan agreement to repay the previously outstanding ANDX 5.500% senior notes due 2019 in the aggregate principal amount of $500 million at maturity on October 15, 2019 and to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility and its intercompany loan agreement with MPC. The remainder of the proceeds from the notes offering and term loan borrowings have or will be used for general partnership purposes. MPLX remains committed to maintaining an investment-grade credit profile and a strategy of self-funding the equity portion of its organic growth capital needs.

Non-GAAP references
In addition to our financial information presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management utilizes additional non-GAAP measures to facilitate comparisons of past performance and future periods. This press release and supporting schedules include the non-GAAP measures adjusted EBITDA and consolidated debt to last twelve months pro forma adjusted EBITDA, which we refer to as our leverage ratio, distributable cash flow (DCF) and distribution coverage ratio. The amount of adjusted EBITDA and DCF generated is considered by the board of directors of our general partner in approving the Partnership's cash distribution. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF should not be considered separately from or as a substitute for net income, income from operations, or cash flow as reflected in our financial statements. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA and DCF are net income and net cash provided by operating activities. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) provision for income taxes; (iii) amortization of deferred financing costs; (iv) non-cash equity-based compensation; (v) net interest and other financial costs; (vi) income from equity method investments; (vii) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (viii) unrealized derivative gains and losses; (ix) acquisition costs; (x) noncontrolling interest and (xi) other adjustments as deemed necessary. In general, we define DCF as adjusted EBITDA adjusted for (i) deferred revenue impacts; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) maintenance capital expenditures; (iv) equity method investment capital expenditures paid out; and (v) other non-cash items.
The Partnership makes a distinction between realized or unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is outstanding, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, we reverse the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss and record the realized gain or loss of the contract.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial performance measure used by management, industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies to assess the financial performance and operating results of our ongoing business operations. Additionally, we believe adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors for trending, analyzing and benchmarking our operating results from period to period as compared to other companies that may have different financing and capital structures.
DCF is a financial performance measure used by management as a key component in the determination of cash distributions paid to unitholders. We believe DCF is an important financial measure for unitholders as an indicator of cash return on investment and to evaluate whether the partnership is generating sufficient cash flow to support quarterly distributions. In addition, DCF is commonly used by the investment community because the market value of publicly traded partnerships is based, in part, on DCF and cash distributions paid to unitholders.
Distribution coverage ratio is a financial performance measure used by management to reflect the relationship between the partnership's financial operating performance and cash distribution capability. We define the distribution coverage ratio as the ratio of DCF attributable to GP and LP unitholders to total GP and LP distributions declared.
Leverage ratio is a liquidity measure used by management, industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies to analyze our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures.
