Antero Midstream Announces First Quarter 2023 Financial and Operational Results

 

Denver, Colorado, April 26, 2023—Antero Midstream Corporation (NYSE: AM) (“Antero Midstream” or the “Company”) today announced its first quarter 2023 financial and operational results. The relevant unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are included in Antero Midstream’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

 

First Quarter 2023 Highlights:

·Gathering and compression volumes increased by 8% and 11%, respectively, compared to the prior year quarter

·Net Income was $87 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, a 6% per share increase compared to the prior year quarter

·Adjusted Net Income was $100 million, or $0.21 per share, an 11% per share increase compared to the prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)

·Adjusted EBITDA was $242 million, a 16% increase compared to the prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)

·Capital expenditures were $34 million, a 64% decrease compared to the prior year quarter

·Free Cash Flow after dividends was $46 million compared to a $38 million deficit in the prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)

 

Full Year 2023 Guidance Update:

·Increasing Net Income by $15 million to a range of $355 to $395 million

·Increasing Adjusted EBITDA by $20 million to a range of $950 to $990 million (non-GAAP measure)

·Decreasing capital expenditures by $15 million to a range of $180 to $200 million

·Increasing Free Cash Flow after dividends by $35 million to a range of $125 to $155 million (non-GAAP measures)

 

Paul Rady, Chairman and CEO said, “Antero Midstream’s outstanding operational performance during the first quarter, led by record throughput, helped drive earnings well in excess of the prior year and ahead of expectations. In addition, the completions efforts from Antero Resources resulted in outstanding performance from our fresh water business.”

 

Brendan Krueger, CFO of Antero Midstream, said “The first quarter of 2023 marked the third consecutive quarter of generating Free Cash Flow after dividends. Importantly, the $46 million of Free Cash Flow after dividends was an $84 million improvement from the first quarter of 2022. Looking ahead to the remainder of the year, our higher Adjusted EBITDA guidance combined with our lower capital budget guidance is expected to result in a $35 million increase to our Free Cash Flow after dividends. This reflects a 33% increase to the midpoint of the previous guidance range and will allow us to continue reducing absolute debt and leverage, further de-risking the outlook for Antero Midstream.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions

 

Antero Midstream uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. Antero Midstream defines Adjusted Net Income as Net Income plus amortization of customer relationships and loss on asset retirement obligations, excluding (gain) on asset sale, net of tax effect of reconciling items. Antero Midstream uses Adjusted Net Income to assess the operating performance of its assets. Antero Midstream defines Adjusted EBITDA as Net Income plus interest expense, net, income tax expense, amortization of customer relationships, depreciation expense, loss on settlement of asset retirement obligations, gain on asset sale, accretion of asset retirement obligations, and equity-based compensation expense, excluding equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, plus distributions from unconsolidated affiliates.

 

Antero Midstream uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess:

 

*the financial performance of Antero Midstream’s assets, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;

*its operating performance and return on capital as compared to other publicly traded companies in the midstream energy sector, without regard to financing or capital structure; and

*the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects.

 

 

 

 

Antero Midstream defines Free Cash Flow before dividends as Adjusted EBITDA less interest expense, net and accrual-based capital expenditures. Capital expenditures include additions to gathering systems and facilities, additions to water handling systems, and investments in unconsolidated affiliates. Capital expenditures exclude acquisitions. Free Cash Flow after dividends is defined as Free Cash Flow before dividends less accrual-based dividends declared for the quarter. Antero Midstream uses Free Cash Flow before and after dividends as a performance metric to compare the cash generating performance of Antero Midstream from period to period.

 

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Free Cash Flow before and after dividends are non-GAAP financial measures. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to these measures is Net Income. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the GAAP measures of Net Income and cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities. The presentations of such measures are not made in accordance with GAAP and have important limitations as analytical tools because they include some, but not all, items that affect Net Income and cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities. You should not consider any or all such measures in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP. Antero Midstream’s definitions of such measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

The following table reconciles cash paid for capital expenditures and accrued capital expenditures during the period (in thousands):

 

  

Three Months Ended

March 31,

 
   2022   2023 
Capital expenditures (as reported on a cash basis)  $84,267    42,957 
Change in accrued capital costs   10,388    (9,354)
Capital expenditures (accrual basis)  $94,655    33,603 

 

Antero Midstream defines Net Debt as consolidated total debt, excluding unamortized debt premiums and debt issuance costs, less cash and cash equivalents. Antero Midstream views Net Debt as an important indicator in evaluating Antero Midstream’s financial leverage. Antero Midstream defines leverage as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Net Debt is total debt, excluding unamortized debt premiums and debt issuance costs.

 

The following table reconciles consolidated total debt to consolidated net debt, excluding debt premiums and issuance costs, (“Net Debt”) as used in this release (in thousands):

 

   March 31, 2023 
Bank credit facility  $751,100 
7.875% senior notes due 2026   550,000 
5.75% senior notes due 2027   650,000 
5.75% senior notes due 2028    650,000 
5.375% senior notes due 2029   750,000 
Consolidated total debt  $3,351,100 
Cash and cash equivalents   — 
Consolidated net debt  $3,351,100 

 

 

Antero Midstream has not included a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow before and after dividends to the nearest GAAP financial measures for 2023 because it cannot do so without unreasonable effort and any attempt to do so would be inherently imprecise. Antero Midstream is able to forecast the following reconciling items between such measures and Net Income (in millions):

 

   Twelve Months Ended
December 31, 2023		 
   Low   High 
Depreciation expense  $135   $145 
Equity based compensation expense   20    30 
Amortization of customer relationships   70    75 
Distributions from unconsolidated affiliates   125    135
