Exterran Holdings and Exterran Partners Report Third Quarter 2009 Results

November 5, 2009 7:00 AM EST

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Exterran Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: EXH) and Exterran Partners, L.P. (NASDAQ: EXLP) today reported financial results for the third quarter 2009.

Exterran Holdings, Inc. Financial Results

Exterran Holdings reported net income attributable to Exterran stockholders for the third quarter 2009 of $18.2 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, compared to a net loss attributable to Exterran stockholders for the second quarter 2009 of $530.8 million, or $8.66 per diluted share, and net income attributable to Exterran stockholders for the third quarter 2008 of $37.0 million, or $0.57 per diluted share.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Exterran stockholders for the third quarter 2009 was $24.8 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, excluding pretax charges that totaled $3.6 million, including a $2.6 million restructuring charge related to the consolidation of our fabrication facilities in North America and a $1.0 million charge related to our investments in non-consolidated affiliates in Venezuela. Due to the expropriation of our assets and operations in Venezuela, our Venezuelan contract operations and aftermarket services businesses are reflected as discontinued operations in our current and prior period financial results.

Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter 2009 attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding charges, was $24.4 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, and net income from continuing operations for the third quarter 2008 attributable to Exterran stockholders, excluding charges, was $24.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted share.

Revenue was $679.7 million for the third quarter 2009, compared to $678.0 million for the second quarter 2009 and $756.3 million for the third quarter 2008. EBITDA, as adjusted (as defined below), was $161.1 million for the third quarter 2009, compared to $151.4 million for the second quarter 2009 and $172.4 million for the third quarter 2008.

Ernie L. Danner, Exterran Holdings' President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I am pleased with our overall performance in the third quarter despite challenging industry conditions. With solid execution by our operating and support groups, we generated a strong level of cash flow and reduced our debt balances by $124 million. We also commenced the operation of two new contract operations projects in the Eastern Hemisphere in early October, and have a significant backlog of international contract operations projects scheduled to begin operations through mid-2010.

"Although we are encouraged by the recent increase in North American natural gas prices, we expect continuing overall weak market conditions and, in particular, declining activity levels for our North America contract operations business into 2010. We expect our net capital expenditures to be $200 million to $300 million in 2010, down from approximately $375 million to $400 million in 2009. Building on our third quarter success, we expect to generate positive cash flow after capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2009 and in 2010."

Exterran Partners, L.P. Financial Results

Exterran Partners reported revenue of $41.3 million for the third quarter 2009, compared to $45.1 million for the second quarter 2009 and $44.4 million for the third quarter 2008. Net income was $2.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted limited partner unit, for the third quarter 2009, compared to $2.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted limited partner unit, for the second quarter 2009 and $9.4 million, or $0.49 per diluted limited partner unit, for the third quarter 2008. Net income for the second quarter 2009 was $5.7 million, or $0.28 per diluted limited partner unit, excluding a $3.0 million non-cash fleet impairment charge.

Exterran Partners' EBITDA, as further adjusted (as defined below), totaled $18.4 million for the third quarter 2009, compared to $21.1 million for the second quarter 2009 and $22.7 million for the third quarter 2008. Distributable cash flow (as defined below) totaled $10.6 million for the third quarter 2009, compared to $12.7 million for the second quarter 2009 and $14.8 million for the third quarter 2008.

"In October, Exterran Partners agreed to acquire contracts and equipment representing approximately 273,000 horsepower of compression from Exterran Holdings for approximately $143 million, excluding transaction costs, to be financed with approximately $57 million of borrowings under its new $150 million asset-backed securitization facility and existing revolving credit facility and the issuance of approximately 4.7 million common units and approximately 97,000 general partner units to Exterran Holdings. The acquisition, anticipated to close in mid-November, is expected to strengthen Exterran Partners' market position in the United States and enhance its distributable cash flow," commented Mr. Danner, President and Chief Executive Officer of Exterran Partners' managing general partner.

On October 30, 2009, Exterran Partners announced a cash distribution of $0.4625 per limited partner unit for the third quarter 2009, the same level as in the second quarter 2009 and the third quarter 2008.

(1) Management believes disclosure of EBITDA, as adjusted, and Gross Margin,
both non-GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors because, when
viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, they provide a
more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone.
Management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, and Gross Margin as supplemental measures
to review current period operating performance, comparability measures and
performance measures for period to period comparisons. In addition, EBITDA, as
adjusted, is used by management as a valuation measure.

 (1) Management believes disclosure of EBITDA, as adjusted, diluted income
 (loss) attributable to Exterran stockholders per common share, excluding
 charges, and Gross Margin, non-GAAP measures, provides useful information to
 investors because, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying
 reconciliations, they provide a more complete understanding of our performance
 than GAAP results alone. Management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, diluted income
 per common share from continuing operations, excluding charges, and Gross
 Margin as supplemental measures to review current period operating performance,
 comparability measures and performance measures for period to period
 comparisons. In addition, EBITDA, as adjusted, is used by management as a
 valuation measure.
