INDIANAPOLIS, May 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P. (NASDAQ: CLMT) (the "Partnership," the "Company," "Calumet," "we," "our" or "us") reported net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 of $51.9 million compared to net income of $4.2 million for the same quarter in 2011. These results include $26.0 million of noncash unrealized derivative gains as compared to $0.4 million of noncash unrealized derivative losses in the first quarter of 2011.
Earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below in the section of this press release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures") were $90.2 million and $69.7 million, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 as compared to $26.4 million and $34.7 million, respectively, for the same quarter in 2011. Distributable Cash Flow (as defined below in the section of this press release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures") for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $39.2 million compared to $18.2 million for the same quarter in 2011. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA quarter over quarter was due primarily to a $37.4 million increase in gross profit, discussed below, and $9.0 million of increased realized derivative gains, partially offset by a $7.6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and a $4.5 million increase in transportation expense. See the section of this press release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the attached tables for a discussion of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and other non-generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP") financial measures, definitions of these measures and reconciliations of such measures to the comparable U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") measures.
"We are pleased with our results for the first quarter of 2012. Our specialty products production increased while undergoing turnarounds at various facilities. We also continued to benefit from increasing specialty products demand and widening crack spreads driven by heavy Canadian and Bakken crude oil differentials to NYMEX WTI in the first quarter," said Bill Grube, Calumet's Chief Executive Officer. "As a result of this strength in the business, we raised our quarterly distribution to $0.56 per unit for the first quarter of 2012, a $0.03 per unit increase over the fourth quarter of 2011," said Grube.
Net income reported for quarter ended March 31, 2012 increased $47.7 million quarter over quarter due primarily to a $37.4 million increase in gross profit, as discussed below, a $26.5 million increase in noncash unrealized derivative gains, which may or may not be realized in the future as the derivatives are settled, and a $9.0 million increase in realized derivative gains, partially offset by a $11.1 million increase in interest expense, a $7.6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and a $4.5 million increase in transportation expense.
Gross profit by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31, --------- 2012 2011 ---- ---- (Dollars in thousands, except per barrel data) Specialty products $66,469 $47,891 Fuel products 17,775 (1,027) ------ ------ Total gross profit (1) $84,244 $46,864 ======= ======= Specialty products gross profit per barrel $19.40 $18.09 ====== ====== Fuel products gross profit per barrel $3.26 $(0.47) ===== ======
(1) We define specialty products and fuel products gross profit as sales less the cost of crude oil and other feedstocks and other production-related expenses, the most significant portion of which include labor, plant fuel, utilities, contract services, maintenance, depreciation and processing materials.
The increase in specialty products segment gross profit of $18.6 million quarter over quarter was due primarily to a 29.4% increase in sales volume, a 9.5% increase in the average selling price per barrel, partially offset by a 12.8% increase in the average cost of crude oil per barrel, and higher operating costs, largely repairs and maintenance.
The increase in fuel products segment gross profit of $18.8 million quarter over quarter was due primarily to a 150.8% increase in sales volume mostly as a result of the Superior Acquisition and a 9.2% increase in the average sales price per barrel (excluding the impact of realized hedging losses reflected in sales), partially offset by a 6.8% increase in the average cost of crude oil per barrel and increased realized losses on derivatives of $24.0 million. Due to the extremely volatile nature of the pricing differentials between NYMEX WTI crude oil and both Canadian heavy and Bakken crude oils in the first quarter of 2012, our NYMEX WTI crude oil swap contracts entered into to hedge the purchase of crude oil at our Superior refinery as part of our crack spread hedging program are no longer closely correlated and we were required, under GAAP, to discontinue hedge accounting on these derivatives. As a result, we recorded $27.2 million to realized gain on derivative instruments in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The effective portion of realized gains or losses on crude oil swaps which qualify for hedge accounting are recorded to cost of sales. Thus, our fuel products segment gross profit for the first quarter of 2012 does not reflect any impacts of our crude oil hedges related to the Superior refinery.
Quarterly Distribution
On April 18, 2012, the Company declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.56 per unit on all outstanding units or $30.1 million for the first quarter of 2012. The distribution will be paid on May 15, 2012 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on May 4, 2012. This quarterly distribution represents an increase of 5.7% over the fourth quarter of 2011.
Operations Summary
The following table sets forth unaudited information about Calumet's operations. Facility production volume differs from sales volume due to changes in inventories and the sale of purchased fuel product blendstocks such as ethanol and biodiesel in our fuel products segment.
Three Months Ended March 31, --------- Sales volume (bpd): 2012 2011 ---- ---- Specialty products 37,659 29,422 Fuel products 59,857 24,134 ------ ------ Total (1) 97,516 53,556 Total feedstock runs (2) 98,203 56,085 Facility production: (3) Specialty products: Lubricating oils 14,680 13,779 Solvents 9,126 10,127 Waxes 1,277 1,059 Fuels 446 633 Asphalt and other by-products 15,986 8,024 ------ ----- Total 41,515 33,622 ------ ------ Fuel products: Gasoline 24,902 8,964 Diesel 23,122 10,763 Jet fuel 5,456 3,165 Heavy fuel oils and other 3,419 556 ----- --- Total 56,899 23,448 ------ ------ Total facility production (3) 98,414 57,070 ====== ======
____________
(1) Total sales volume includes sales from the production at our facilities and certain third-party facilities pursuant to supply and/or processing agreements and sales of inventories. Total sales volume excludes the sale of purchased fuel product blendstocks such as ethanol and biodiesel in our fuel products segment sales. The increase in total sales volume for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same quarter in 2011 is due primarily to incremental sales of fuel products and asphalt subsequent to the Superior Acquisition on September 30, 2011, as well as increased sales volume of lubricating oils.
(2) Total feedstock runs represent the barrels per day of crude oil and other feedstocks processed at our facilities and at certain third-party facilities pursuant to supply and/or processing agreements. The increase in the total feedstock runs for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same quarter in 2011 is due primarily to incremental feedstock runs from the Superior Acquisition and a planned turnaround at the Shreveport refinery in the 2011 period.
(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 at certain third-party facilities, pursuant to supply and/or processing agreements, including such agreements with LyondellBasell. The difference between total facility 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. The increase in total facility production in the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 is due primarily to increased feedstock runs from the Superior Acquisition as discussed above in footnote 2 of this table.
Revolving Credit Facility Capacity
On March 31, 2012, Calumet had availability under its revolving credit facility of $343.2 million, based on a $641.3 million borrowing base, $223.9 million in outstanding standby letters of credit, and $74.2 in outstanding borrowings. Calumet believes it will continue to have sufficient cash flow from operations and borrowing capacity to meet its financial commitments, minimum quarterly distributions to unitholders, debt service obligations, contingencies and anticipated capital expenditures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We include in this press release the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, and provide reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, our most directly comparable financial performance and liquidity measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow 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 believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to analysts and investors as they exclude transactions not related to our core cash operating activities and provide metrics to analyze our ability to pay distributions. We believe that excluding these transactions allows investors to meaningfully trend and analyze the performance of our core cash operations.
We define EBITDA for any period as net income (loss) plus interest expense (including debt issuance and extinguishment costs), income taxes and depreciation and amortization.
We define "Adjusted EBITDA" for any period as: (1) net income (loss) plus (2)(a) interest expense; (b) income taxes; (c) depreciation and amortization; (d) unrealized losses from mark to market accounting for hedging activities; (e) realized gains under derivative instruments excluded from the determination of net income (loss); (f) non-cash equity based compensation expense and other non-cash items (excluding items such as accruals of cash expenses in a future period or amortization of a prepaid cash expense) that were deducted in computing net income (loss); (g) debt refinancing fees, premiums and penalties and (h) all extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items of gain or loss, or revenue or expense; minus (3)(a) unrealized gains from mark to market accounting for hedging activities; (b) realized losses under derivative instruments excluded from the determination of net income and (c) other non-recurring expenses and unrealized items that reduced net income (loss) for a prior period, but represent a cash item in the current period.
We define "Distributable Cash Flow" for any period as Adjusted EBITDA less replacement capital expenditures, turnaround costs, cash interest expense (consolidated interest expense less non-cash interest expense) and income tax expense. Distributable Cash Flow is used by us, our investors and analysts to analyze our ability to pay distributions.
The definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow that are presented in this release have been updated to reflect the calculation of "Consolidated Cash Flow" contained in the indentures governing our 9-3/8% senior notes due May 1, 2019 that were issued in April and September 2011 (the "2019 Notes"). We are required to report Consolidated Cash Flow to our holders of the 2019 Notes and Adjusted EBITDA to the lenders under our revolving credit facility, and these measures are used by them to determine our compliance with certain covenants governing those debt instruments. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow that are presented in this press release for prior periods have been updated to reflect the use of the new calculations. Please see our filings with the SEC, including our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, for additional details regarding the covenants governing our debt instruments.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating our performance as measured by EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, management recognizes and considers the limitations of these measurements. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow do not reflect our obligations for the payment of income taxes, interest expense or other obligations such as capital expenditures. Accordingly, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are only three of the measurements that management utilizes. Moreover, our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow in the same manner. The following tables present a reconciliation of both net income to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, and Distributable Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, our most directly comparable GAAP financial performance and liquidity measures, for each of the periods indicated.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P. (NASDAQ: CLMT) (the "Partnership," the "Company," "Calumet," "we," "our" or "us") reported net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 of $51.9 million compared to net income of $4.2 million for the same quarter in 2011. These results include $26.0 million of noncash unrealized derivative gains as compared to $0.4 million of noncash unrealized derivative losses in the first quarter of 2011.
Earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below in the section of this press release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures") were $90.2 million and $69.7 million, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 as compared to $26.4 million and $34.7 million, respectively, for the same quarter in 2011. Distributable Cash Flow (as defined below in the section of this press release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures") for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $39.2 million compared to $18.2 million for the same quarter in 2011. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA quarter over quarter was due primarily to a $37.4 million increase in gross profit, discussed below, and $9.0 million of increased realized derivative gains, partially offset by a $7.6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and a $4.5 million increase in transportation expense. See the section of this press release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the attached tables for a discussion of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and other non-generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP") financial measures, definitions of these measures and reconciliations of such measures to the comparable U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") measures.
"We are pleased with our results for the first quarter of 2012. Our specialty products production increased while undergoing turnarounds at various facilities. We also continued to benefit from increasing specialty products demand and widening crack spreads driven by heavy Canadian and Bakken crude oil differentials to NYMEX WTI in the first quarter," said Bill Grube, Calumet's Chief Executive Officer. "As a result of this strength in the business, we raised our quarterly distribution to $0.56 per unit for the first quarter of 2012, a $0.03 per unit increase over the fourth quarter of 2011," said Grube.
Net income reported for quarter ended March 31, 2012 increased $47.7 million quarter over quarter due primarily to a $37.4 million increase in gross profit, as discussed below, a $26.5 million increase in noncash unrealized derivative gains, which may or may not be realized in the future as the derivatives are settled, and a $9.0 million increase in realized derivative gains, partially offset by a $11.1 million increase in interest expense, a $7.6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and a $4.5 million increase in transportation expense.
Gross profit by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

(1) We define specialty products and fuel products gross profit as sales less the cost of crude oil and other feedstocks and other production-related expenses, the most significant portion of which include labor, plant fuel, utilities, contract services, maintenance, depreciation and processing materials.
The increase in specialty products segment gross profit of $18.6 million quarter over quarter was due primarily to a 29.4% increase in sales volume, a 9.5% increase in the average selling price per barrel, partially offset by a 12.8% increase in the average cost of crude oil per barrel, and higher operating costs, largely repairs and maintenance.
The increase in fuel products segment gross profit of $18.8 million quarter over quarter was due primarily to a 150.8% increase in sales volume mostly as a result of the Superior Acquisition and a 9.2% increase in the average sales price per barrel (excluding the impact of realized hedging losses reflected in sales), partially offset by a 6.8% increase in the average cost of crude oil per barrel and increased realized losses on derivatives of $24.0 million. Due to the extremely volatile nature of the pricing differentials between NYMEX WTI crude oil and both Canadian heavy and Bakken crude oils in the first quarter of 2012, our NYMEX WTI crude oil swap contracts entered into to hedge the purchase of crude oil at our Superior refinery as part of our crack spread hedging program are no longer closely correlated and we were required, under GAAP, to discontinue hedge accounting on these derivatives. As a result, we recorded $27.2 million to realized gain on derivative instruments in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The effective portion of realized gains or losses on crude oil swaps which qualify for hedge accounting are recorded to cost of sales. Thus, our fuel products segment gross profit for the first quarter of 2012 does not reflect any impacts of our crude oil hedges related to the Superior refinery.
Quarterly Distribution
On April 18, 2012, the Company declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.56 per unit on all outstanding units or $30.1 million for the first quarter of 2012. The distribution will be paid on May 15, 2012 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on May 4, 2012. This quarterly distribution represents an increase of 5.7% over the fourth quarter of 2011.
Operations Summary
The following table sets forth unaudited information about Calumet's operations. Facility production volume differs from sales volume due to changes in inventories and the sale of purchased fuel product blendstocks such as ethanol and biodiesel in our fuel products segment.

____________
(1) Total sales volume includes sales from the production at our facilities and certain third-party facilities pursuant to supply and/or processing agreements and sales of inventories. Total sales volume excludes the sale of purchased fuel product blendstocks such as ethanol and biodiesel in our fuel products segment sales. The increase in total sales volume for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same quarter in 2011 is due primarily to incremental sales of fuel products and asphalt subsequent to the Superior Acquisition on September 30, 2011, as well as increased sales volume of lubricating oils.
(2) Total feedstock runs represent the barrels per day of crude oil and other feedstocks processed at our facilities and at certain third-party facilities pursuant to supply and/or processing agreements. The increase in the total feedstock runs for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same quarter in 2011 is due primarily to incremental feedstock runs from the Superior Acquisition and a planned turnaround at the Shreveport refinery in the 2011 period.
(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 at certain third-party facilities, pursuant to supply and/or processing agreements, including such agreements with LyondellBasell. The difference between total facility 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. The increase in total facility production in the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 is due primarily to increased feedstock runs from the Superior Acquisition as discussed above in footnote 2 of this table.
Revolving Credit Facility Capacity
On March 31, 2012, Calumet had availability under its revolving credit facility of $343.2 million, based on a $641.3 million borrowing base, $223.9 million in outstanding standby letters of credit, and $74.2 in outstanding borrowings. Calumet believes it will continue to have sufficient cash flow from operations and borrowing capacity to meet its financial commitments, minimum quarterly distributions to unitholders, debt service obligations, contingencies and anticipated capital expenditures.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements and information in this press release concerning results for the three months ended March 31, 2012 may constitute "forward-looking statements." The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "plan," "intend," "foresee," "should," "would," "could" or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we anticipate. All comments concerning our expectations for future revenues and operating results are based on our forecasts for our existing operations and do not include the potential impact of any future acquisitions. Our forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements 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 or decreases in crude oil and crack spread prices, including the resulting impact on our liquidity; the results of our hedging and other risk management activities; our ability to comply with financial covenants contained in our debt instruments; the availability of, and our ability to consummate, acquisition or combination opportunities and the impact of any completed acquisitions; labor relations; our access to capital to fund expansions, acquisitions and our working capital needs and our ability to obtain debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms; successful integration and future performance of acquired assets, businesses or third-party product supply and processing relationships; our ability to timely and effectively integrate the operations of recently acquired businesses or assets, particularly those in new geographic areas or in new lines of business; environmental liabilities or events that are not covered by an indemnity, insurance or existing reserves; maintenance of our credit ratings and ability to receive open credit lines from our suppliers; demand for various grades of crude oil and resulting changes in pricing conditions; fluctuations in refinery capacity; our ability to access sufficient crude oil supply through long-term or month-to-month evergreen contracts and on the spot market; the effects of competition; continued creditworthiness of, and performance by, counterparties; the impact of current and future laws, rulings and governmental regulations, including guidance related to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; shortages or cost increases of power supplies, natural gas, materials or labor; hurricane or other weather interference with business operations; our ability to access the debt and equity markets; accidents or other unscheduled shutdowns; and general economic, market or business conditions.
For additional information regarding known material factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our projected results, please see our filings with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date they are made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We include in this press release the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, and provide reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, our most directly comparable financial performance and liquidity measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow 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 believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to analysts and investors as they exclude transactions not related to our core cash operating activities and provide metrics to analyze our ability to pay distributions. We believe that excluding these transactions allows investors to meaningfully trend and analyze the performance of our core cash operations.
We define EBITDA for any period as net income (loss) plus interest expense (including debt issuance and extinguishment costs), income taxes and depreciation and amortization.
We define "Adjusted EBITDA" for any period as: (1) net income (loss) plus (2)(a) interest expense; (b) income taxes; (c) depreciation and amortization; (d) unrealized losses from mark to market accounting for hedging activities; (e) realized gains under derivative instruments excluded from the determination of net income (loss); (f) non-cash equity based compensation expense and other non-cash items (excluding items such as accruals of cash expenses in a future period or amortization of a prepaid cash expense) that were deducted in computing net income (loss); (g) debt refinancing fees, premiums and penalties and (h) all extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items of gain or loss, or revenue or expense; minus (3)(a) unrealized gains from mark to market accounting for hedging activities; (b) realized losses under derivative instruments excluded from the determination of net income and (c) other non-recurring expenses and unrealized items that reduced net income (loss) for a prior period, but represent a cash item in the current period.
We define "Distributable Cash Flow" for any period as Adjusted EBITDA less replacement capital expenditures, turnaround costs, cash interest expense (consolidated interest expense less non-cash interest expense) and income tax expense. Distributable Cash Flow is used by us, our investors and analysts to analyze our ability to pay distributions.
The definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow that are presented in this release have been updated to reflect the calculation of "Consolidated Cash Flow" contained in the indentures governing our 9-3/8% senior notes due May 1, 2019 that were issued in April and September 2011 (the "2019 Notes"). We are required to report Consolidated Cash Flow to our holders of the 2019 Notes and Adjusted EBITDA to the lenders under our revolving credit facility, and these measures are used by them to determine our compliance with certain covenants governing those debt instruments. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow that are presented in this press release for prior periods have been updated to reflect the use of the new calculations. Please see our filings with the SEC, including our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, for additional details regarding the covenants governing our debt instruments.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating our performance as measured by EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, management recognizes and considers the limitations of these measurements. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow do not reflect our obligations for the payment of income taxes, interest expense or other obligations such as capital expenditures. Accordingly, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are only three of the measurements that management utilizes. Moreover, our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow in the same manner. The following tables present a reconciliation of both net income to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, and Distributable Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, our most directly comparable GAAP financial performance and liquidity measures, for each of the periods indicated.
