Delek Logistics Reports Third Quarter 2023 Results

Consolidated Operating Results

Third quarter 2023 EBITDA of $98.2 million benefited from increased contribution from the Delek Permian Gathering system, Delaware Gathering system, terminalling and marketing rate increases and continued strong throughput on joint venture pipelines, partially offset by increased operating expenses as compared to EBITDA of $89.0 million in the third quarter 2022. Net income attributable to all partners for the third quarter 2023 of $34.8 million reflected a decrease of $9.8 million compared to the third quarter 2022.

Gathering and Processing Segment

EBITDA in the third quarter 2023 was $52.9 million compared with $56.6 million in the third quarter 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by a one-time credit received in the third quarter of 2022. Excluding this, third quarter 2023 results were higher than last year, due to increased throughput from our Permian assets.

Wholesale Marketing and Terminalling Segment

EBITDA in the third quarter 2023 was $28.1 million, approximately in line with third quarter 2022 EBITDA of  $20.3 million. The increase was primarily due to higher terminalling utilization and improved wholesale margins.

Storage and Transportation Segment

EBITDA in the third quarter 2023 was $17.9 million compared with $14.6 million in the third quarter 2022. The increase was primarily due to increased storage and transportation rates.

Investments in Pipeline Joint Ventures Segment

During the third quarter 2023, income from equity method investments was $9.3 million compared to $8.6 million in the third quarter 2022.

Corporate

EBITDA in the third quarter 2023 was a loss of $10.0 million million compared to a loss of $11.0 million in the third quarter 2022.

Non-GAAP Disclosures:

Our management uses certain "non-GAAP" operational measures to evaluate our operating segment performance and non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate past performance and prospects for the future to supplement our GAAP financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These financial and operational non-GAAP measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include:

• Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") - calculated as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, including amortization of customer contract intangible assets, which is included as a component of net revenues in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.
• Distributable cash flow - calculated as net cash flow from operating activities plus or minus changes in assets and liabilities, less maintenance capital expenditures net of reimbursements and other adjustments not expected to settle in cash. Delek Logistics believes this is an appropriate reflection of a liquidity measure by which users of its financial statements can assess its ability to generate cash.
• Distributable cash flow, as adjusted for transaction costs, or Distributable cash flow, as adjusted - distributable cash flow adjusted to exclude significant, infrequently occurring transaction costs.

Our EBITDA and distributable cash flow measures are non GAAP supplemental financial measures that management and external users of our condensed consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:    

• Delek Logistics' operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of EBITDA, financing methods;
• the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unitholders on a current and on-going basis;
• Delek Logistics' ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
• the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.

We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and distributable cash flow measures provide information useful to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations and assists in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for current and comparative periods.  EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  EBITDA and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, because EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other partnerships in our industry, our definitions of EBITDA and distributable cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other partnerships, thereby diminishing their utility.  For a reconciliation of EBITDA and distributable cash flow to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, please refer to "Results of Operations" below.  See the accompanying tables in this earnings release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
