HOUSTON, Oct. 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hi-Crush Partners LP (NYSE: HCLP), "Hi-Crush" or the "Partnership", today reported third quarter 2018 results. Revenues for the third quarter of 2018 totaled $214.0 million on sales of 2,775,360 tons of frac sand. This compares to $248.5 million of revenues on sales of 3,037,504 tons of frac sand in the second quarter of 2018. The limited partners' interest in net income was $26.5 million for the third quarter of 2018, resulting in $0.30 basic and $0.29 diluted earnings per limited partner unit.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization adjusted for earnings from equity method investments and loss on extinguishment of debt ("Adjusted EBITDA") was $50.6 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $81.5 million for the second quarter of 2018. Distributable cash flow attributable to the limited partners for the third quarter of 2018 was $40.0 million compared to $66.6 million for the second quarter of 2018. There was no distributable cash flow attributable to the holder of the incentive distribution rights ("IDRs") for the third quarter of 2018, compared to $7.8 million for the second quarter of 2018.
"The third quarter experienced a rapid change in market conditions in the frac sand sector," said Mr. Robert E. Rasmus, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Hi-Crush. “This change, attributable to declines in well completion activity and therefore demand for frac sand, impacted the market for Northern White volumes and pricing, which we expect to continue in the fourth quarter. The accelerated pace of slowdown in well completion activity, combined with supply additions and build-up of inventories in-basin, resulted in lower pricing for Northern White sand across all basins. We remain committed to our Mine. Move. Manage. operating strategy and to expanding our frac sand logistics solutions offering. We believe our focus on logistics will differentiate Hi-Crush and continue to benefit unitholders, particularly as the market rebounds in 2019 due to operator budget resets and the alleviation of takeaway capacity constraints in the Permian Basin.”
Third Quarter 2018 Results
Revenues for the third quarter of 2018 totaled $214.0 million, compared to $248.5 million for the second quarter of 2018. The decrease was driven by lower pricing and reduced volumes. Lower pricing resulted from the slowdown in demand for frac sand that emerged during the third quarter of 2018, due to decreased well completions as E&Ps reduced activity during the quarter. The decline in demand was exacerbated by the start-up of new in-basin volumes in the Permian. Average sales price declined to $64 per ton in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $70 per ton in the second quarter of 2018. The reduced sales volumes sequentially reflect lower activity levels experienced during the third quarter, but were partially mitigated by sales made directly to operators and through our PropStream integrated last mile logistics service. Of the total sales volumes reported in the third quarter of 2018, 24% were sold at the wellsite through PropStream, compared to 20% in the second quarter of 2018. Volumes sold directly to E&Ps represented 40% of the total in the third quarter of 2018, compared to 31% in the second quarter of 2018. Both sales volumes through PropStream and sales volumes sold direct to E&Ps also increased on an absolute basis in the third quarter.
Contribution margin was $23.92 per ton in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $30.94 per ton in the second quarter of 2018. The 23% decrease in contribution margin per ton primarily resulted from lower sales price on Northern White volumes as well as increased per ton production costs due to lower sales volumes.
"The increase in volumes sold through our PropStream logistics services and direct to operators benefited our sales volumes and, to a certain extent, our contribution margin in a challenging and rapidly evolving market landscape," said Ms. Laura C. Fulton, Chief Financial Officer of Hi-Crush. “In response to emerging pressures, we took proactive steps to control costs and concentrate capacity utilization at certain of our Wisconsin facilities, including our decision to idle the dry plant at Whitehall in late September. We continue to focus on improvements to our cost structure from the mine to the last mile, and on establishing and deepening relationships with operators. Our continued expansion of last mile solutions benefitted our results in the quarter and positions us well to respond quickly to expected market improvements spurred by alleviation of demand constraints beginning in early 2019. Our integrated last mile solutions mitigated some impacts from the market and pricing dynamics of sand, as does our in-basin production capability. The performance from our Kermit facility remains strong. We have been operating the facility at or above nameplate capacity for more than a year, and are pleased with its operations, which will continue to produce a strong base of cash flows for us, and provide reliable supply to our customers.”
Structural Simplification
On October 22, 2018 the Partnership announced it had completed the acquisition of its sponsor, Hi-Crush Proppants LLC, the sole member of its general partner, for consideration of 11.0 million newly issued common units of the Partnership. Total value of the consideration for the acquisition, comprised entirely of the newly issued units, was $96.25 million based on the closing price of $8.75 per unit on October 19, 2018. Through the acquisition, which closed on October 21, 2018, Hi-Crush simplified its corporate structure, eliminated its incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) and associated reset provisions, cancelled remaining potential earnout payments from previous asset dropdowns, and acquired economic control of the Partnership from the general partner. The terms of the agreement were the result of arm’s length negotiation between the representatives of majority owner of the sponsor and the Conflicts Committee, which is comprised solely of the independent directors of Hi-Crush’s Board of Directors.
“We are excited to have reached an agreement and complete the buyout of our sponsor and general partner,” said Mr. Rasmus. “This transaction meaningfully simplifies our corporate structure and advances our progress towards conversion from an MLP to a C-Corp sooner than alternate paths. The transaction eliminates the IDRs and a future IDR reset, preserving cash, while also ensuring the interests of management and the unitholders are strongly aligned. We believe the buyout will result in immediate and long-term benefits for the Partnership as we continue the transformation of our business. These benefits include a lower cost of capital, increased appeal to a wider range of investors, improved corporate governance, enhanced financial flexibility, and ability to respond to the evolving dynamics of our business and industry, generating value for all stakeholders.”
Operational Update
The acquisition of FB Industries Inc. ("FB Industries" or "FB") closed on August 1, 2018. There are 69 legacy FB Industries silo systems in the field today, with several in inventory and in production. FB has recently completed commissioning and is currently field testing the new FB Atlas top-fill conveyor system utilizing hopper bottom trailers that are capable of delivering 27 tons per truck load to the wellsite.
At the end of the third quarter of 2018, Hi-Crush had 16 PropStream container systems in the Permian Basin and Marcellus / Utica plays, an increase from 14 systems at the end of the second quarter of 2018.
"The customer feedback on the operations of our teams at the wellsite has been tremendously positive," said Mr. Rasmus. “We are on track to achieve our market penetration goals for year-end. Customers are focused on the last mile value proposition for increased 2019 activity levels and interest in our FB silo systems has been robust. We have explored several ways in which we can utilize this addition to our logistics and wellsite storage offering to improve efficiencies and deliver further value to our customers.”
“As of the end of the quarter, Hi-Crush had 16 of the 52 container systems developed by PropX that are currently in the field,” said Ms. Fulton. “We expect nearly 60 PropX container systems to be deployed by year-end, of which 20 will be ready for operation by Hi-Crush personnel for our operator customers. We will have 8 silo systems under lease arrangements in November, with several in inventory ready to be deployed, and are continuing to build more systems to put in service by year-end.”
Liquidity and Capital Expenditures
As of September 30, 2018, the Partnership had $444.8 million of long-term debt outstanding, and was in compliance with the covenants defined in its senior secured revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility"). As of September 30, 2018, Hi-Crush had $175.4 million of cash and $97.7 million in available capacity under its ABL Facility.
“Our balance sheet is well positioned for the challenges we face,” said Ms. Fulton. “With nearly $275 million in liquidity, including the $175 million of cash, we have more than sufficient funding for our capital projects, our distribution and debt service.”
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, totaled $66.8 million. For the full year 2018, capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $155 to $165 million. The 2018 plan includes the previously announced development and construction of our second Kermit facility ("Kermit 2"), equipment builds to further expand market penetration of the FB Industries silo solution, expansion of the Wyeville facility, and further growth in PropStream and other logistics initiatives.
"We are looking at every project to justify the spending and conserve cash, however, the construction of our second in-basin Permian facility on our reserves in Kermit, Texas, and the expansion of the Wyeville facility in Wisconsin, continue as planned,” said Ms. Fulton. “The expansion projects in West Texas and Wisconsin are reflective of our strategic pivot to focus on the needs of operators, and both expansions are supported by strong commitments from new and existing E&P customers. In addition to supplying sand at the minegate or in-basin, our last mile capabilities deepen the value we provide to operators, and we remain committed to expanding the ways in which we can serve those customers. The second Kermit facility is supported by contracts with operators for 75% of its capacity and is on track to be completed by the end of 2018. The Wyeville expansion is fully supported by customer commitments and is on schedule for completion in mid-first quarter of 2019.”
Distribution
On October 21, 2018, Hi-Crush declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.225 per unit on all common units, or $0.90 on an annualized basis, for the third quarter of 2018, down from the previous quarterly cash distribution of $0.75 per unit. The distribution will be paid on November 14, 2018, to unitholders of record on November 1, 2018.
Outlook
For the fourth quarter of 2018, the Partnership expects total sales volumes to be in a range of 2.3 to 2.5 million tons. Volumes sold during the fourth quarter of 2018 are expected to be negatively impacted by continued weakness in completions activity, as well as typical seasonal slowdowns. We anticipate increasing completions activity in 2019 along with refreshed E&P capital budgets, the availability of newly-built takeaway capacity in the Permian Basin, and improving supply/demand dynamics for frac sand.
"We believe some of the market dynamics that coalesced in the third quarter are transitory,” said Mr. Rasmus. “With some of these factors alleviating in early 2019 and throughout the coming year, we fully expect a recovery in the demand environment. There is evolving uncertainty regarding Northern White sand and we are not immune to the pressures facing the frac sand industry. However, we believe that our Mine. Move. Manage. strategy and the customer approach we have communicated are the keys to long-term success in the frac sand and logistics sector. The potential commoditization of frac sand production contributed to our original investment in the last mile. We are committed to fundamentally reorienting our business beyond the mine, including an increasing concentration on the logistics of frac sand, and serving customers through value added solutions.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release and the accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measure of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, adjusted earnings per limited partner unit and contribution margin, which may be used periodically by management when discussing our financial results with investors and analysts. The accompanying schedules of this news release provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP").
We define EBITDA as net income plus depreciation, depletion and amortization and interest expense, net of interest income. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, adjusted for any non-cash impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill, earnings (loss) from equity method investments and loss on extinguishment of debt. We define distributable cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for interest expense and maintenance and replacement capital expenditures, including accrual for reserve replacement, plus accretion of asset retirement obligations and non-cash unit-based compensation. We use distributable cash flow as a performance metric to compare cash generating performance of the Partnership from period to period and to compare the cash generating performance for specific periods to the cash distributions (if any) that are expected to be paid to our unitholders. Distributable cash flow will not reflect changes in working capital balances. We define adjusted earnings per limited partner unit as earnings per limited partner unit, adjusted for the impact of non-recurring items.
We use contribution margin, which we define as total revenues less costs of goods sold excluding depreciation, depletion and amortization, to measure our financial and operating performance. Contribution margin excludes other operating expenses and income, including costs not directly associated with the operations of our business such as accounting, human resources, information technology, legal, sales and other administrative activities.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, adjusted earnings per limited partner unit and contribution margin are presented as management believes the data provides a measure of operating performance that is unaffected by historical cost basis and provides additional information and metrics relative to the performance of our business.
