Aug. 4, 2022
/PRNewswire/ — Delek Logistics Partners, LP (NYSE: DKL) (“Delek Logistics”) today announced its financial results for the second quarter 2022. For the three months ended
June 30, 2022
, Delek Logistics reported net income attributable to all partners of
$32.2 million
, or
$0.74
per diluted common limited partner unit. This compares to net income attributable to all partners of
$43.2 million
, or
$1.00
per diluted common limited partner unit, in the second quarter 2021. Net cash from operating activities was
$85.1 million
in the second quarter 2022 compared to
$85.8 million
in the second quarter 2021. Distributable cash flow, as adjusted
(1)
was
$55.6 million
in the second quarter 2022, compared to
$53.8 million
in the second quarter 2021.
For the second quarter 2022, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) was
$64.5 million
(including
$6.2 million
of adverse closing costs associated with 3 Bear Delaware – NM, LLC) compared to
$66.8 million
in the second quarter 2021.
Avigal Soreq, President of Delek Logistics’ general partner, stated, “We are excited to welcome the 3 Bear team to Delek Logistics. This is a transformational acquisition as it increases our third party revenue, expands our product mix to include natural gas and water and diversifies our geographic footprint into the
Delaware
portion of the Permian basin. Between our legacy Midland assets and newly acquired
Delaware
assets, we are concentrated in one of the most prolific basins in the world. Returning cash to unitholders has been a longstanding priority of the partnership and I’m proud to continue that tradition with the 38th consecutive increase in the quarterly distribution of
$0.985
per unit.”
Uzi Yemin
, Executive Chairman of Delek Logistics, remarked, “DKL has enjoyed significant growth since becoming a public company providing stable EBITDA throughout various business cycles and delivering consistent quarterly distribution increases over time. The partnership is well positioned for the future and the recent 3 Bear acquisition progressively shifts DKL toward more of a stand-alone entity.”
Distribution and Liquidity
On July 25, 2022, Delek Logistics declared a quarterly cash distribution of
$0.985
per common limited partner unit for the second quarter 2022, which equates to
$3.940
per common limited partner unit on an annualized basis. This distribution will be paid on August 11, 2022 to unitholders of record on August 4, 2022. This represents a 0.5% increase from the first quarter 2022 distribution of
$0.980
per common limited partner unit, or
$3.920
per common limited partner unit on an annualized basis, and a 4.8% increase over Delek Logistics’ second quarter 2021 distribution of
$0.940
per common limited partner unit, or
$3.760
per common limited partner unit annualized. For the second quarter 2022, the total cash distribution declared to all partners was approximately
$42.8 million
, resulting in a distributable cash flow coverage ratio, as adjusted
(1)
of 1.30x.
As of
June 30, 2022
, Delek Logistics had total debt of approximately
$1,522
.2 million and cash of
$13.8 million
. Additional borrowing capacity, subject to certain covenants, under the
$1.0 billion
credit facility was
$119.1 million
. The total leverage ratio as of
June 30, 2022
of approximately 4.7x was well within the requirements of the maximum allowable leverage ratio under the credit facility.
Consolidated Operating Results
Contribution margin in the second quarter 2022 increased to
$69.4 million
compared to
$64.2 million
in the second quarter 2021 primarily as a result of an increase in refinery utilization rates at Delek US and incremental contribution margin attributable to the acquisition of 3 Bear Delaware – NM, LLC (the “3 Bear Acquisition”) that closed on
June 1, 2022
(the “Acquisition Date”). Second quarter 2022 EBITDA of
$64.5 million
benefited from the increased contribution margin as well as continued strong throughput on joint venture pipelines, offset by
$6.2 million
of transaction costs associated with the 3 Bear Acquisition, as compared to EBITDA of
$66.8 million
in the second quarter 2021. Net income attributable to all partners for the second quarter 2022 of
$43.2 million
reflected a decrease of
$11.1 million
compared to the second quarter 2021, which is primarily comprised of the
$5.2 million
increase in contribution margin, offset by increases in interest costs, amortization and depreciation, and transaction costs related to the 3 Bear Acquisition totaling
$14.3 million
.

Pipelines and Transportation Segment
Contribution margin in the second quarter 2022 was
$48.4 million
compared to
$45.2 million
in the second quarter 2021. The increase was primarily driven from strong refinery utilization rates at Delek US.
Wholesale Marketing and Terminalling Segment
During the second quarter 2022, contribution margin was
$16.3 million
compared to
$19.0 million
in the second quarter 2021. The decrease was primarily driven be lower margins in the
West Texas
wholesale business and lower contribution from Tyler assets compared to the second quarter 2021.
3 Bear Operations Segment
Our second quarter 2022 results were favorably impacted by the incremental contribution margin for the one month from the Acquisition Date through
June 30, 2022
. Contribution margin in the 3 Bear Operations Segment is largely driven by production volumes and gathering activities during the month, which are a function of both producer activities as well as our capacity, subject to the dedicated acreage agreements and the portions of acreage which have been developed, the extent to which connection points and interconnects have been brought on-line, and the extent to which maintenance or other planned or unplanned operational disruptions may occur.
Investments in Pipeline Joint Ventures Segment
During the second quarter 2022, income from equity method investments was
$7.1 million
compared to
$6.6 million
in the second quarter 2021, primarily driven by increased volumes at both Caddo and
Red River
joint ventures.

Non-GAAP Disclosures:
Our management uses certain “non-GAAP” operational measures to evaluate our operating segment performance and non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate past performance and prospects for the future to supplement our GAAP financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These financial and operational non-GAAP measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include:
- Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) – calculated as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, including amortization of customer contract intangible assets, which is included as a component of net revenues in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.
- Distributable cash flow – calculated as net cash flow from operating activities plus or minus changes in assets and liabilities, less maintenance capital expenditures net of reimbursements and other adjustments not expected to settle in cash. Delek Logistics believes this is an appropriate reflection of a liquidity measure by which users of its financial statements can assess its ability to generate cash.
- Distributable cash flow, as adjusted for transaction costs, or Distributable cash flow, as adjusted
(FN))
– distributable cash flow adjusted to exclude significant, infrequently occurring transaction costs.
Our EBITDA and distributable cash flow measures are non GAAP supplemental financial measures that management and external users of our condensed consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:
- Delek Logistics’ operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of EBITDA, financing methods;
- the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unitholders on a current and on-going basis;
- Delek Logistics’ ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
- the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.
We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and distributable cash flow measures provide information useful to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations and assists in evaluating our ongoing operating performance for current and comparative periods. EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, because EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other partnerships in our industry, our definitions of EBITDA and distributable cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other partnerships, thereby diminishing their utility. For a reconciliation of EBITDA and distributable cash flow to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, please refer to “Results of Operations” below. See the accompanying tables in this earnings release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
