Kinetik Holdings Inc. (NYSE: KNTK) (“Kinetik” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Results and Commentary

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, Kinetik processed natural gas volumes of 1.49 Bcf/d and 1.44 Bcf/d, respectively, and reported net income including noncontrolling interest of $43.1 million and $119.1 million, respectively.

Kinetik generated Adjusted EBITDA1 of $215.3 million and $610.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, Distributable Cash Flow1 of $148.1 million and $418.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and Free Cash Flow1 of $36.8 million and $(17.0) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

“2023 continues to be a seminal year for our Company as we execute on our capital program that underscores our long-term strategic vision,” said Jamie Welch, Kinetik’s President & Chief Executive Officer. “In the third quarter, we achieved processed gas volumes of 1.49 Bcf/d, representing 23% growth year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA1 increased 4% quarter-over-quarter, despite weather-related challenges in July and August and some unexpected downstream pipeline outages for multiple days throughout the quarter.”

“We made significant progress on our 2023 capital program during the quarter. Construction continued across the state line on our expansion into Lea County, New Mexico with right-of-way approval for the route received. The expansion, which is supported by multi-year agreements with minimum volume commitments, remains ahead of schedule with expected in-service in the first quarter of 2024. We completed construction of the Delaware Link pipeline in September and reached commercial in-service on October 1, 2023. These two projects, coupled with the Permian Highway Pipeline (“PHP”) expansion nearing completion, enable Kinetik to offer Delaware Basin producers a highly-competitive, integrated wellhead-to-Gulf Coast market solution.”

“Looking ahead, we are on track to achieve our 2023 exit rate guidance of 1.6 Bcf/d of gas processed volumes. We forecast sequential Adjusted EBITDA1 and volume growth in the fourth quarter at our Midstream Logistics segment. Within our Pipeline Transportation segment, the Delaware Link pipeline is in-service, and we expect the start-up of the PHP expansion in December. As a result, we have tightened our 2023 Adjusted EBITDA1 Guidance range.”

“In 2024, we estimate meaningful year-over-year Adjusted EBITDA1 growth combined with a capital expenditures plan of less than $150 million, demonstrating the attractive Free Cash Flow1 potential of our asset base.”

Financial

Notes Regarding Presentation of Financial Information

The following addresses the results of our operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. As the business combination between BCP Raptor Holdco, LP, Kinetik’s predecessor for accounting purposes (“BCP”) and Altus Midstream LP (“Altus”) (the “Transaction”) was determined to be a reverse merger, BCP was considered the accounting acquirer and Altus was considered the legal acquirer. Therefore, BCP’s net assets, carrying at historical value, were presented as the predecessor to the Company’s historical financial statements and the comparable period presented herein reflects the results of operations of BCP for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and Altus’ results of operations from February 22, 2022, the closing date of the Transaction, through September 30, 2022. Kinetik’s financial results on and after February 22, 2022 reflect the results of the combined company.

Unless otherwise noted or the context requires otherwise, references herein to Kinetik Holdings Inc. or “the Company” with respect to time periods prior to February 22, 2022 include BCP and its consolidated subsidiaries and do not include Altus and its consolidated subsidiaries, while references herein to Kinetik Holdings Inc. with respect to time periods from and after February 22, 2022 include Altus and its consolidated subsidiaries.

(1) The results of the legacy Altus business are not included in the Company’s consolidated financials prior to February 22, 2022.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income including noncontrolling interests adjusted for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, asset write-offs, the proportionate EBITDA from our equity method investments, equity in earnings from investments recorded using the equity method, share-based compensation expense, noncash increases and decreases related to trading and hedging agreements, extraordinary losses and unusual or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA provides a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income including noncontrolling interests or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

(3) Distributable Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted for the proportionate EBITDA from our equity method investments, operating cash distributions received from our equity method investments, interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, distributions to preferred unitholders and maintenance capital expenditures. Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income including noncontrolling interests or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that Distributable Cash Flow is a useful measure to compare cash generation performance from period to period and to compare the cash generation performance for specific periods to the amount of cash dividends we make.

(4) Free Cash Flow is defined as Distributable Cash Flow adjusted for growth capital expenditures, investments in EMI’s, investing cash distributions received from our equity method investments, cash interest and contributions in aid of construction. Free Cash flow should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income including noncontrolling interests or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that Free Cash Flow is a useful performance measure to compare cash generation performance from period to period and to compare the cash generation performance for specific periods to the amount of cash dividends that we make.

(5) Net Debt is defined as total long-term debt, excluding deferred financing costs, less cash and cash equivalents. Net Debt illustrates our total debt position less cash on hand that could be utilized to pay down debt at the balance sheet date. Net Debt should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of total long-term debt, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
