Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P. (NASDAQ: CLMT) (the "Partnership" or "Calumet") reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 of $4.0 million compared to net loss of $12.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, net income was $53.6 million compared to net income of $25.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Calumet reported net cash provided by operating activities of $110.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $75.7 million for the same period in 2008.
Earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined by the Partnership's credit agreements) were $27.7 million and $42.5 million, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $13.6 million and $51.6 million, respectively, for the third quarter of 2008. Distributable Cash Flow for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was $30.2 million as compared to $41.3 million for third quarter of 2008. The $9.0 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA quarter over quarter was primarily due to a reduction in gross profit in our specialty products segment offset by lower realized derivative losses of $16.7 million in 2009 as compared to 2008 due to significant declines in crude oil prices in 2008. (See the section of this release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the attached tables for discussion of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and other non-generally accepted accounting principles ("non-GAAP") financial measures, definitions of measures and reconciliations of such measures to the comparable GAAP measures.)
The increase in net income of $16.5 million from the third quarter of 2008 was primarily due to decreased derivative losses of $43.1 million ($26.4 million of which represents non-cash derivative losses), decreased selling, general and administrative expenses of $4.6 million, and decreased interest expense of $2.4 million. Partially offsetting these increases in net income was lower gross profit of $35.8 million. Gross profit by segment was as follows:

Total gross profit $41.2 $77.0 $138.5 $172.7
===== ===== ====== ======
Specialty products segment gross profit quarter over quarter was primarily impacted by lower overall specialty product selling prices in relation to crude oil prices compared to the 2008 quarter due to lower demand resulting from the economic downturn. In addition, specialty products segment gross profit was negatively impacted by lower sales volumes in lubricating oils, solvents and waxes due to economic conditions impacting product demand. The decrease in fuel products segment gross profit quarter over quarter was due primarily to decreasing selling prices as compared to the average cost of crude oil as fuel products crack spreads declined significantly quarter over quarter. These losses were partially offset by increased gains on derivatives recorded in gross profit of $17.5 million and lower cost of sales of $10.3 million resulting from the liquidation of lower cost inventory layers in 2009.
"The continued economic weakness during the third quarter and decline in fuel products crack spreads weighed negatively on our results. We continue to work on controlling costs, executing our hedging strategies and completing small, short-term payback projects to improve our results," said Bill Grube, Calumet's CEO and President.
Quarterly Distribution
On October 20, 2009, the Partnership declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.45 per unit for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 on all outstanding units. The distribution will be paid on November 13, 2009 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on November 3, 2009.

1. Total sales volume includes sales from the production of our
facilities and certain third-party facilities pursuant to supply and/or
processing agreements, and sales of inventories.
2. Total feedstock runs represents the barrels per day of crude oil and
other feedstocks processed at our facilities and certain third-party
facilities pursuant to supply and/or processing agreements. The increase
in feedstock runs for the three months ended September 30, 2009 as
compared to the same period in 2008 is primarily due to increased run
rates at the Shreveport refinery due to increased operational
efficiencies.
3. Total facility production represents the barrels per day of specialty
products and fuel products yielded from processing crude oil and other
feedstocks at our facilities and certain third-party facilities pursuant
to supply and/or processing agreements. The difference between total
production and total feedstock runs is primarily a result of the time
lag between the input of feedstock and production of finished products
and volume loss.
Credit Agreement Covenant Compliance
Compliance with the financial covenants pursuant to our credit agreements is measured quarterly based upon performance over the most recent four fiscal quarters, and as of September 30, 2009, we continued to be in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit agreements.
While assurances cannot be made regarding our future compliance with these covenants and being cognizant of the general uncertain economic environment, we believe that we will continue to maintain compliance with such financial covenants.
Revolving Credit Facility Capacity
On September 30, 2009, we had availability on our revolving credit facility of $89.5 million, based on a $200.6 million borrowing base, $41.9 million in outstanding standby letters of credit, and borrowings of $69.1 million. We believe that we have sufficient cash flow from operations and borrowing capacity to meet our financial commitments, debt service obligations, contingencies and anticipated capital expenditures. However, we are subject to business and operational risks that could materially adversely affect our cash flows. A material decrease in our cash flow from operations or a significant, sustained decline in crude oil prices would likely produce a corollary material adverse effect on our borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility and potentially our ability to comply with the covenants under our credit facilities. Substantial declines in crude oil prices, if sustained, may materially diminish our borrowing base, which is based in part on the value of our crude oil inventory, which could result in a material reduction in our borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. A significant increase in crude oil prices, if sustained, would likely result in increased working capital funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the information in this release may contain forward-looking statements. These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology including "may," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "continue," or other similar words. These statements discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition, or state other "forward-looking" information. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and may be beyond our control. These risks and uncertainties include the overall demand for specialty hydrocarbon products, fuels and other refined products; our ability to produce specialty products and fuels that meet our customers' unique and precise specifications; the impact of fluctuations and rapid increases and decreases in crude oil and crack spread prices, including the impact on our liquidity; the results of the Partnership's hedging and risk management activities; the availability of, and the Partnership's ability to consummate, acquisition or combination opportunities; labor relations; the ability of the Partnership to comply with the financial covenants contained in its credit facilities; the Partnership's access to capital to fund acquisitions and its ability to obtain debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms; successful integration and future performance of acquired assets or businesses; environmental liabilities or events that are not covered by an indemnity; insurance or existing reserves; maintenance of the Partnership's credit ratings and ability to receive open credit from its suppliers; demand for various grades of crude oil and resulting changes in pricing conditions; fluctuations in refinery capacity; the effects of competition; continued creditworthiness of, and performance by, counterparties; the impact of current and future laws, rulings and governmental regulations; shortages or cost increases of power supplies, natural gas, materials or labor; hurricane or other weather interference with business operations; fluctuations in the debt and equity markets; and general economic, market or business conditions. When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements included in this release as well as the Partnership's most recent Form 10-K and 2009 Forms 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which could cause the Partnership's actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We include in this release the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, and provide reconciliations of net income (loss) to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow and (in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA) to net cash provided by operating activities, our most directly comparable financial performance and liquidity measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used as supplemental financial measures by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others to assess:
-- the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing
methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;
-- the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest
costs and support our indebtedness;
-- our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those
of other companies in our industry, without regard to financing or
capital structure; and
-- the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the
overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities.
We define EBITDA as net income plus interest expense (including debt extinguishment costs), taxes and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA to be Consolidated EBITDA as defined in our credit facility agreements. Consistent with that definition, Adjusted EBITDA, for any period, equals: (1) net income plus (2)(a) interest expense; (b) taxes; (c) depreciation and amortization; (d) unrealized losses from mark to market accounting for derivative activities; (e) unrealized items decreasing net income (including the non-cash impact of restructuring; decommissioning and asset impairments in the periods presented); (f) other non-recurring expenses reducing net income which do not represent a cash item for such period; and (g) all non-recurring restructuring charges associated with the Penreco acquisition minus (3)(a) tax credits; (b) unrealized items increasing net income (including the non-cash impact of restructuring, decommissioning and asset impairments in the periods presented); (c) unrealized gains from mark to market accounting for derivative activities; and (d) other non-cash recurring expenses and unrealized items that reduced net income for a prior period, but represent a cash item in the current period. We are required to report Adjusted EBITDA to our lenders under our credit facilities and it is used to determine our compliance with the consolidated leverage and interest coverage tests thereunder.
We believe that Distributable Cash Flow provides additional information for investors to evaluate the Partnership's ability to declare and pay distributions to unitholders.
We define Distributable Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less replacement capital expenditures, cash interest paid (excluding capitalized interest) and income tax expense.
