Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. Reports Record Adjusted EBITDA for Fiscal 2015

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Sept. 29, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. (NYSE:FGP) today announced record Adjusted EBITDA of $300.2 million for fiscal 2015, up 4% from the previous year of $288.1 million despite temperatures that were 8% warmer than the prior year. Distributable Cash Flow (DCF) to equity investors for the year was $189.6 million, producing DCF coverage of 1.12x for the 12-month period.

'We are thrilled to present strong results to our investors despite weather that was a hindrance to our core propane business,' said President and Chief Executive Officer Stephen L. Wambold. 'Strong propane margins, operational flexibility, a continued focus on expense discipline in our retail operations and our focus on our diversification strategy allowed us to offset the effect of the warmer nationwide temperatures Mother Nature handed us throughout the year.'

Propane margin cents per gallon benefited from wholesale commodity prices that were 43% lower than the prior year. Operating expense of $432.3 million was down more than 3% from the year-ago level, driven primarily by the company's ability to flex down variable delivery costs, including personnel and fuel cost, which more than offset additional operating expenses associated with the full-year impact our midstream water solutions acquisition in May of 2014 and the impact of our Bridger Logistics, LLC ('Bridger') acquisition in the fourth quarter.

Strong margin cents per gallon and lower operating expenses helped minimize the effect of warmer temperatures in the more highly concentrated geographic areas we serve. General and administrative expense rose to $56.4 million from $46.0 million, primarily attributable to one-time transaction costs associated with the Bridger acquisition of $16.4 million. Interest expense increased to $100.4 million from $86.5 million, reflecting increased borrowings to fund acquisition and growth capital expenditures. Net earnings for the year were $30.1 million, or $0.35 per common unit, compared to $33.7 million, or $0.41 per common unit.

During the fourth quarter Ferrellgas closed on its previously announced $822.5 million acquisition of Bridger. The Bridger transaction is a significant step toward Ferrellgas' near-term diversification goals. Ferrellgas remains dedicated to the aggressive pursuit of accretive, complementary acquisitions in both the traditional propane space and midstream.

'Our acquisition of Bridger contributed nearly $8.6 million of Adjusted EBITDA during the short period of time we've owned these high-quality assets, and we continue to believe Bridger will meet or exceed our expectations in fiscal 2016,' Wambold said. 'We've made smart business decisions over the last few years and put ourselves in position to move boldly and decisively on the acquisition front. Our midstream and propane acquisition pipelines remain robust, and we remain committed to exploring a wide range of opportunities that fit our strategic model and our growth culture.'

Operating expense  $ 942  $ 1,832  $ 5,175  $ 5,335

(b) Amounts allocated to the general partner for its 1.0101% interest in the operating partnership, Ferrellgas, L.P.
(c) Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net earnings attributable to Ferrellgas Partners, L.P., income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash employee stock ownership plan compensation charge, non-cash stock-based compensation charge, loss on disposal of assets, other income (expense), net, change in fair value of contingent consideration, litigation accrual and related legal fees associated with a class action lawsuit, unrealized (non-cash) losses (gains) on changes in fair value of derivatives, acquisition and transition expenses and net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest. Management believes the presentation of this measure is relevant and useful, because it allows investors to view the partnership's performance in a manner similar to the method management uses, adjusted for items management believes makes it easier to compare its results with other companies that have different financing and capital structures. This method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may not be consistent with that of other companies and should be viewed in conjunction with measurements that are computed in accordance with GAAP.
(d) Net cash interest expense is the sum of interest expense less non-cash interest expense and other income (expense), net. This amount includes interest expense related to the accounts receivable securitization facility.
(e) Maintenance capital expenditures include capitalized expenditures for betterment and replacement of property, plant and equipment.
(f) Management considers distributable cash flow to equity investors a meaningful non-GAAP measure of the partnership's ability to declare and pay quarterly distributions to equity investors. Distributable cash flow to equity investors, as management defines it, may not be comparable to distributable cash flow to equity investors or similarly titled measurements used by other corporations and partnerships. Items added into our calculation of distributable cash flow to equity investors that will not occur on a continuing basis may have associated cash payments. Distributable cash flow to equity investors may not be consistent with that of other companies and should be viewed in conjunction with measurements that are computed in accordance with GAAP.
