- Received $256 million in a private placement of 10.4 million shares of perpetual preferred stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock")

"The assets continue to perform well with wind resource just below our long-term average during the quarter," said Mike Garland, CEO of Pattern Energy. "We met our 2019 full year guidance for CAFD and the business continues to perform in line with management's plan."
(1) Such dividend will only be payable in the event the record date, which is March 31, 2020, occurs prior to the effective time of the merger under the Merger Agreement.
Financial and Operating Results
Pattern Energy sold 2,179,090 megawatt hours ("MWh") of electricity on a proportional basis in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to 1,966,677 MWh sold in the same period last year. Pattern Energy sold 8,144,403 MWh of electricity on a proportional basis for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the "full year 2019"), compared to 7,988,192 MWh in 2018. The 11% improvement in the quarterly period was primarily due to volume increases resulting from acquisitions and less favorable wind conditions in 2018 partially offset by volume decreases due to divestitures.
Net income was $40 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to a net loss of $22 million for the same period in 2018. The increase in net income in the quarterly period was primarily due to a one-time $125 million distribution related to a refinancing at South Kent and Grand, partially offset by a $71 million pre-tax gain on the sale of K2 in 2018.
Net loss for the full year 2019 was $107 million compared to $69 million for the same period in 2018. The increase in net loss for the annual period was primarily due to $53 million in accelerated deprecation mainly as a result of the repowering at the Gulf Wind project, a $14 million increase in corrective maintenance repairs, a $14 million increase in contingent consideration payable to Pattern Energy Group LP as a result of construction cost savings at Tsugaru and the completion of construction at Grady and a $71 million decrease in other income resulting from the sale of K2 in 2018. These decreases were partially offset by a $106 million increase in earnings from our unconsolidated investments as a result of the suspension of equity method accounting and the recognition of distributions through earnings in 2019 and a decrease in our proportionate share of losses at Pattern Development.
Adjusted EBITDA was $94 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to $81 million for the same period in 2018. The 16% increase in the quarterly period was primarily due to a $30 million increase in earnings due to new projects acquired and a $7 million decrease in losses at our development investment segment, partially offset by a $11 million decrease in earnings as a result of our divestiture of K2 and a $12 million decrease in earnings from projects fully operational in both periods.
Adjusted EBITDA was $359 million for the full year 2019 compared to $372 million for 2018. The $13 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA during 2019 was primarily due to a $39 million decrease in earnings as a result of our divestiture of K2, a $5 million increase in losses at our development investment segment and a $24 million decrease in earnings from projects fully operational in both periods, partially offset by a $55 million increase in earnings due to new projects acquired. The decrease in earnings from projects fully operational in both periods was primarily due to increased corrective maintenance repairs.
Cash available for distribution was $44 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $35 million for the same period in 2018. The change in the quarterly period was primarily due to $21 million earned by new projects acquired, partially offset by a $10 million decrease in earnings from projects fully operational in both periods and a $2 million reduction as a result of divestitures.
Cash available for distribution was $172 million for the full year 2019 compared to $167 million for 2018. The $5 million increase in the annual period was primarily due to $30 million earned by new projects acquired, partially offset by a $14 million reduction as a result of divestitures and an $11 million decrease in earnings from projects fully operational in both periods. Based on dividends paid during 2019, Pattern Energy's dividend payout ratio was 96% of 2019 cash available for distribution.
Financial Guidance
In light of the expected closing of the Merger Agreement, the Company is not providing a target range for 2020 full year cash available for distribution at this time. Moreover, the Company has not evaluated its 2020 performance outlook for cash available for distribution for (among other things) the effect of the Merger Agreement and other recent market conditions. For more information about the Company's cash available for distribution, refer to the definitive proxy statement the Company filed on February 4, 2020.
Common Dividend
Pattern Energy declared a dividend for the first quarter 2020, payable on April 30, 2020, to common equity holders of record on March 31, 2020 in the amount of $0.4220 per Class A common share. Such dividend will only be payable in the event the record date, which is March 31, 2020, occurs prior to the effective time of the merger under the Merger Agreement. The quarterly dividend represents $1.688 on an annualized basis. The amount of the first quarter 2020 dividend is unchanged from the fourth quarter 2019 dividend.
Preferred Dividend
Pattern Energy declared a dividend, payable on April 30, 2020, to holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock on April 15, 2020, aggregating to approximately $4 million.
New Acquisitions
Pattern Energy acquired two wind projects, Henvey Inlet and Grady, from Pattern Energy Group LP and Pattern Development, respectively, for total cash consideration of $293 million.
- Pattern Energy acquired 100% of Pattern Energy Group LP's 50% equity ownership interest in the 300 MW Henvey Inlet facility for approximately $193 million, subject to adjustment, for an owned interest of 150 MW. Henvey Inlet is located on the northeast shore of Georgian Bay in Ontario and commenced commercial operation in September 2019. The facility utilizes 87 Vestas 3.45 MW turbines and has a 20-year PPA with the Independent Electricity System Operator for 100% of its production.
- Pattern Energy acquired 51% of Pattern Development's Class B member interest in the 220 MW Grady facility for approximately $100 million for an owned interest of 101 MW. Grady is located in Curry County, New Mexico and commenced commercial operation in August 2019. The facility utilizes 84 Siemens Gamesa 2.625 MW turbines and has a 25-year PPA with Sacramento Municipal Utility District for 100% of its production, up to 200 MW.
New Financing Arrangement(2)
In October 2019, Pattern Energy issued 10.4 million shares of Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock with a par value of $260 million issued at a 1.5% discount. The Series A Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, when declared by the board of directors, cumulative cash dividends at an initial annual rate of 5.625%, based on the $25.00 per share liquidation preference. The annual dividend rate shall increase by 0.5% every year starting on the third anniversary of issuance date to a maximum of four escalations, or 7.625%. The Series A Preferred Shares are entitled to receive 12.6% of any cash distributions, including the return of capital, made by Pattern Development to the Company or any of its subsidiaries not to exceed $3.25 per Series A Preferred Share. Pattern Energy received net proceeds of $256 million which it used to fund the acquisition of Henvey Inlet, partially repay borrowings under the revolving credit facility and pay related expenses and fees.
(2) The consummation of the Merger Agreement would affect the terms of the Series A Preferred Shares described herein.
Acquisition Pipeline
Pattern Development has a pipeline of development projects totaling more than 10 gigawatts ("GW"). Pattern Energy has a right of first offer ("ROFO") on the entire pipeline of acquisition opportunities. The identified ROFO list stands at 1,065 MW of total capacity and represents a portion of the pipeline of development projects, which are subject to Pattern Energy's ROFO. Since its IPO, Pattern Energy has purchased more than 1.9 GW from Pattern Energy Group LP and Pattern Development.
