Veresen Announces 2013 First Quarter Results and Updates Guidance
/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES./
CALGARY, May 8, 2013 /CNW/ - Veresen Inc. ("Veresen" or the "Company") (TSX: VSN) announced today its financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
First quarter highlights include:
- Distributable cash1 of $54.6 million or $0.27 per Common Share.
- Net income attributable to Common Shares of $1.2 million or $0.01 per Common Share.
- Cash from operating activities of $37.4 million.
- Solid financial results from Veresen's recent Canadian midstream and power growth initiatives.
- Natural gas liquids (NGL) market conditions continued to be under pressure, resulting in lower earnings and cash flows from Veresen's U.S. midstream business.
"Growth in our fee-for-service business has increased cash flows and has offset the impact of continued weak NGL market conditions," said Don Althoff, President and CEO. "Growth in predictable cash flow generating assets continues to be our priority."

Financial Performance
For the first quarter of 2013, Veresen generated net income attributable to Common Shares of $1.2 million or $0.01 per Common Share compared to $9.5 million or $0.05 per Common Share for the same period in 2012. Earnings from Veresen's operating business segments were generally consistent quarter over quarter, while corporate costs increased in comparison to the same period last year.
First quarter Midstream earnings decreased slightly compared to the same period last year, as earnings from the Hythe/Steeprock complex, a stable, fee-for-service asset, substantially offset reduced earnings from Aux Sable's margin-based business. The continued oversupply of ethane and high levels of propane inventory in Aux Sable's market region, and a 40% increase in natural gas prices in the US Gulf Coast resulted in lower realized NGL fractionation margins from the Aux Sable midstream business. Aux Sable reinjected ethane for a significant period in the first quarter of 2013.
York Energy Centre and Grand Valley wind farm, commissioned in May and March 2012, respectively, made solid contributions to earnings from Veresen's Power business, although the effect of these increases were offset by a lower unrealized fair value gain recorded in the first quarter compared to the same period last year.
First quarter results also reflect higher corporate administrative costs incurred to support Veresen's growth activities, higher project development expenditures, and higher interest expense related to debt incurred to finance the Hythe/Steeprock acquisition.
In the first quarter of 2013, Veresen revised an accounting practice related to Alliance's rate regulated operations, which has no impact on Veresen's cash flows for any period, nor is it reflective of any change in the underlying financial or operating condition of the Company.
The Company's interpretation of the relevant accounting standard was researched in 1999, agreed upon with the Company's auditors, and has been applied consistently since then. The Company was recently advised by PWC LLP that, in their view, its interpretation was no longer appropriate. As such, the Company has revised its previously reported financial results. The details of this revision are presented in Veresen's first quarter 2013 consolidated financial statements.

For the first quarter of 2013, Veresen generated distributable cash of $54.6 million or $0.27 per Common Share up from $41.6 million or $0.23 per Common Share for the same period last year. Distributable cash reflects an additional $8.1 million contribution from Hythe/Steeprock, and a $7.3 million increase from Veresen's Power business, primarily comprised of contributions from the York Energy Centre and the Grand Valley power facilities, and the release of operating funds generated by East Windsor Cogeneration previously held in reserve. These increases were partially offset by a $3.5 million decrease in distributions from Aux Sable, driven by lower fractionation margins; higher costs associated with Veresen's growth initiatives, mainly corporate administrative and interest costs, and dividends on the Company's Preferred Shares issued in February 2012. Taxes were lower than the comparative period in 2012 due to lower U.S.-based earnings from Veresen's U.S. midstream business.
Overview of Business Segments
Pipelines
Alliance is in active negotiations with existing and prospective shippers with respect to proposed new service offerings for contracting of the pipeline beyond 2015. Alliance's objective is to sign precedent agreements in 2013, after which one or more open seasons will be conducted to determine additional shipper interest.
Construction of Alliance's 127-km (79-mile) Tioga Lateral Pipeline and associated facilities in North Dakota is proceeding, with commercial in-service expected in the third quarter of 2013. Initial design capacity of the Tioga Lateral is 106 million cubic feet per day (mmcf/d). Alliance has a long-term firm transportation agreement with an anchor shipper for 61.5 mmcf/d of capacity. The Tioga Lateral will transport liquids-rich gas from the anchor shipper's processing facility to an interconnection point on the Alliance pipeline for onward shipment to Aux Sable's Channahon facility.
Midstream
During the first quarter, Veresen continued detailed planning for the scheduled major turnaround at the Hythe plant in late May 2013. Portions of the facility are expected to be out of service for up to 16 days. During the plant turnaround, Veresen will implement key tie-ins for a debottleneck at the Hythe plant which will eliminate the need for facility down-time if, and when, expansion projects are undertaken. As operator, Veresen's objective is to plan and execute the turnaround in a manner that ensures the safety of all stakeholders and mitigates risks and additional costs associated with extended facility down-time. The majority of the costs associated with the turnaround will be recoverable under Veresen's Midstream Services Agreement.
Aux Sable continues to work with producers within an economic radius of the Alliance pipeline to provide options and value for natural gas and NGLs to reach large and liquid U.S. markets. Aux Sable holds a number of rich gas premium ("RGP") agreements with producers that will enhance the value of the producers' NGLs. In the first quarter of 2013, Aux Sable executed additional RGP agreements with Canadian producers which are expected to result in increased volumes of liquids-rich natural gas for processing and fractionation at Aux Sable's Channahon facility beyond 2015.
Power
Veresen is advancing a number of contracted construction and development projects within its renewable power business. The Company is constructing the Dasque-Middle run-of-river hydro facility located in northwest British Columbia. This project has experienced delays due to challenges in progressing the civil works and commercial in-service has now moved into 2014. The 13-MW Whitecourt waste heat facility, currently being constructed by NRGreen (50% owned by Veresen), is proceeding as planned and is expected to be placed into service in the third quarter of 2013.
Veresen has a number of renewable power projects currently under development including Grand Valley III, St. Columban I and II and Culliton Creek. Upon receipt of the respective regulatory approvals, anticipated in 2013, Veresen will make final investment decisions regarding each development project.
LNG Development Project
Veresen has advanced engineering and permitting activities to allow the export of liquefied natural gas from Coos Bay, Oregon through the development of the Jordan Cove Energy Project and the Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline. Jordan Cove and Pacific Connector each initiated the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's ("FERC") pre-filing process under the National Environmental Policy Act, which will lead to completion and submission of formal FERC applications later this month. Veresen continues to engage in discussions with potential strategic partners to secure a long-term arrangement to produce LNG for international customers.
2013 Guidance Update
While ethane and propane inventories in Aux Sable's market region appear to be levelling off, the Company does not anticipate a meaningful change in prices for the remainder of 2013. As a result, Veresen has narrowed its 2013 distributable cash guidance range to $0.97 to $1.15 per Common Share, from the previous range of $0.92 to $1.19 per Common Share. The midpoint remains at $1.06 per Common Share. Further details concerning 2013 guidance can be found in the "Invest" section of Veresen's web site at www.vereseninc.com.

(2) | Distributable cash is not a standard measure under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. Distributable cash represents the cash available to Veresen for distribution to common shareholders after providing for debt service obligations, Preferred Share dividends, and any maintenance and sustaining capital expenditures. Distributable cash does not include distribution reserves, if any, available in jointly-controlled businesses, project development costs, or transaction costs incurred in conjunction with acquisitions. Project development costs are discretionary, non-recoverable costs incurred to assess the commercial viability of greenfield business initiatives unrelated to the Company's operating businesses. The Company considers transaction costs to be part of the consideration paid for an acquired business and, as such, are unrelated to the Company's operating businesses. Distributable cash is an important measure used by the investment community to assess the source and sustainability of Veresen's cash distributions and should be used to supplement other performance measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. See the following table for the reconciliation of distributable cash to cash from operating activities. |
|
(3) | The number of Common Shares used to calculate distributable cash per Common Share is based on the average number of Common Shares outstanding at each record date. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 the average number of Common Shares outstanding for this calculation was 198,405,736 (2012 - 184,656,102) and 204,312,244 (2012 - 190,562,838) on a basic and diluted basis, respectively. The number of Common Shares outstanding would increase by 5,906,508 (2012 - 5,906,508) Common Shares if the outstanding Convertible Debentures on March 31, 2013 were converted into Common Shares. |
|
(4) | Includes $10.8 million of dividends for the three months ended March 31, 2013 (2012 - $37.1 million) satisfied through the issuance of Common Shares under the Company's Premium DividendTM and Dividend Reinvestment Plan (trademark of Canaccord Genuity Corp.). |
