Financial Results Overview
Golar LNG Partners L.P (Golar Partners or the Partnership) reports net income attributable to unit holders of $19.8 million and operating income of $33.0 million for the second quarter of 2012, as compared to $18.2 million and $31.9 million, respectively for the second quarter of 20111.
Operating results for the second quarter of 2012 improved compared to the same period in 2011 due largely to lower operating costs offset in part by higher administrative expenses. All vessels operated well throughout the quarter with 100 per cent utilization.
Net interest expenses increased to $7.8 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to $3.8 million for the same period in 2011. This is principally due to additional interest cost associated with the $222 million loan from Golar LNG Limited (Golar) in connection with the acquisition of the Golar Freeze.
Other financial items decreased by $4.7 million to a loss of $2.5 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. The variance mainly relates to the changes in non-cash mark-to-market valuations of financial derivative instruments, principally interest rate swaps that are hedges against future interest rate movements.
The Partnerships Distributable Cash Flow2 for the second quarter of 2012 was $20.2 million as compared to $19.0 million in the first quarter of 2012. This improvement is mainly due to the reduction in operating costs in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter offset in part by higher administrative expenses. Operating costs were higher in the first quarter of 2012 partly as a result of annual scheduled maintenance work on the two FSRU vessels operating in Brazil.
Golar Partners declared an increased dividend for the second quarter of $0.44 per unit, representing a 2.3% increase from the first quarter of 2012. The dividend was paid on August 15, 2012.
Follow-on Equity Offering
In July 2012, the Partnership closed a follow on public offering (the "Offering") of 5,500,000 common units representing limited partner interests at a price of $30.95 per common unit. Additionally, the Underwriters exercised in full their option to purchase an additional 825,000 common units in the Offering. The total number of common units sold in the Offering was therefore 6,325,000 and the net public proceeds raised was $188 million. Golar GP LLC, the Partnership's general partner, contributed a further $4.6 million to the Partnership to maintain its 2.0% general partner interest in the Partnership. The Partnership also closed a private placement of 969,305 common units to Golar at a price of $30.95 per common unit.
Floating Storage and Regasification Unit Nusantara Regas Satu (formerly Khannur)
In July 2012, the Partnership completed its acquisition of interests in the companies that own and operate the floating storage and regasification unit ("FSRU") Nusantara Regas Satu (NR Satu) from Golar for a purchase price of $385 million. The vessel left the shipyard, following its FSRU retrofit, in April 2012 and was delivered to its charterers, Nusantara Regas, in early May 2012. Upon delivery, the NR Satu began operating under a charter with an initial term expiring at the end of 2022. Acceptance and delivery tests were successfully completed in July 2012. The FSRU is expected to contribute annual net cash from operations (before deduction of interest cost) of approximately $42m-$44m during the life of its charter.
The Partnership financed the acquisition of NR Satu with the $223 million in total net proceeds of its recent equity offering, cash on hand of $7 million and vendor financing from Golar in the amount of $155 million. The Partnership expects to refinance the loan from Golar with a bank financing during the third quarter of 2012.
Potential future growth opportunities
The Board believes that Golar Partners has significant further potential growth opportunities; in particular with regards to the possible acquisition of additional assets from Golar. Golar has two modern LNG carriers that are due for re-contracting within the next nine months and a fleet of eleven newbuild LNG carriers and two FSRUs with delivery dates commencing in 2013. Given the tight shipping market and strong market fundamentals Golar Partners is optimistic that further acquisition candidates will materialise within the next twelve months.
In addition there are positive developments in the FSRU market. On July 5, 2012 Golar announced that it had been awarded the Gas Atacama Mejillones Seaports FSRU Project (Gas Atacama). The initial term of the contract, which is subject to certain Charterer conditions being met by the end of 2012, is for 15 or 20 years and is expected to generate an average annual earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of approximately US$47-US$48 million. On top of the initial term, Gas Atacama has three five-year contract extension options. Subject to the conditions being met, the FSRU is expected to be delivered to the project in the fourth quarter of 2015.
2 Distributable cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure used by investors to measure the performance of master limited partnerships. Please see Appendix A for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Financing and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2012 the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of $47.1 million and undrawn revolving credit facilities of $40 million. Total debt and capital lease obligations net of restricted cash was $701 million as of June 30, 2012.
Based on the above debt amount and annualized3 second quarter 2012 adjusted EBITDA4 Golar Partners has a debt to adjusted EBITDA multiple of 4.3 times.
As of June 30, 2012, Golar Partners had interest rate swaps with a notional outstanding value of $454 million representing approximately 95% of senior bank debt and capital lease obligations, net of restricted cash. The average fixed interest rate of these swaps is approximately 2.7%. Average margins paid on outstanding debt in addition to the interest rate are approximately 1.5%. The fixed rate of interest paid on the $222 million Golar LNG loan is 6.75%.
Outlook
The acquisition of NR Satu represents the Partnerships second accretive acquisition. As a result of this acquisition, Golar Partners management recommended to the Board an increase in distribution of 10.5% to $0.475 per unit effective for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. This would represent an increase in the Partnerships unit distribution of 23% since its initial public offering.
Following the acquisition, the Partnerships contracted revenue backlog stands at approximately $2.3 billion and its average contract term is approximately 9 years.
LNG production capacity is expected to grow by in excess of 6% a year through to 2017 and at a likely faster rate to the end of the decade. . This could mean a requirement for in excess of 180 new LNG carriers by 2020. There are currently 75 LNG carriers on order and 349 vessels in the existing fleet (excluding FSRUs). Of the existing fleet 46 vessels are more than 30 years old.
The Board is pleased with the development of Golar Partners and its two accretive acquisitions since its IPO in April 2011. During this time market fundamentals have strengthened and the fleet of potential dropdown candidates from Golar has increased with seven further vessel orders in addition to the fleet of seven existing operational vessels and six newbuildings. The Board is optimistic that Golar Partners can continue its high growth rate and thereby continue to increase distributions over the long-term. .

(1) | Cash flows relating to the Golar Freeze for the periods prior to her acquisition by the Partnership (on October 19, 2011) when she was owned and operated by Golar LNG Limited have been combined with the previously published cash flows of the Partnership. These cash flows are referred to as the Dropdown Predecessor. As of October 19, 2011, the financial statements of the Partnership as a separate legal entity are presented on a consolidated basis. |
(2) | On April 13, 2011, the Partnership completed its initial public offering (IPO). Prior to April 13, 2011, the results of operations, cash flows and balance sheet have been carved out of the consolidated financial statements of Golar LNG Limited and therefore are presented on a combined carve-out basis. The combined entitys historical combined financial statements include assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows directly attributable to the Partnerships interests in four vessels, the Golar Mazo, the Methane Princess, the Golar Spirit and the Golar Winter (Initial Fleet). Accordingly, the historical combined carve-out interim financial statements prior to April 13, 2011 reflect allocations of certain administrative and other expenses, including share options and pension costs, mark-to-market valuations of interest rate and foreign currency swap derivatives. The basis for the allocations are described in note 2 of the audited consolidated and combined carve-out financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 contained in the 20-F filed by Golar Partners with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These allocated costs have been accounted for as an equity contribution in the combined balance sheets. |
(3) | Subsequent to the IPO in April 2011, on October 19, 2011, the Partnership acquired from Golar LNG Limited, 100% interests in subsidiaries which own and operate the FSRU, the Golar Freeze. This transaction is deemed also to be a reorganization of entities under common control. As a result, the Partnerships financial statements have been retroactively adjusted for all periods to include the results, cash flows and net assets of the Golar Freeze, herein referred to as the Dropdown Predecessor during the periods under common control of Golar LNG Limited. The basis is similar to the carve out of the initial fleet as described above using a historical combined carve-out basis. |
APPENDIX A RECONCILATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Distributable Cash Flow (DCF)
Distributable cash flow represents net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization, unrealized gains and losses from derivatives, unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, other non-cash items, maintenance and replacement capital expenditures and Dropdown Predecessors net income before depreciation and amortization. Maintenance and replacement capital expenditures, including expenditure on drydocking, represent capital expenditures required to maintain over the long-term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by, Golar Partners capital assets. Distributable cash flow is a quantitative standard used by investors in publicly-traded partnerships to assist in evaluating a partnerships ability to make quarterly cash distributions. Distributable cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other indicator of Golar Partners performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles distributable cash flow to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA refers to earnings before interest, other financial items, taxes, non-controlling interest, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by investors to measure our performance.
The Partnership believes that adjusted EBITDA assists its management and investors by increasing the comparability of its performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies in its industry that provide adjusted EBITDA information. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods or companies of interest, other financial items, taxes and depreciation and amortization, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income between periods. The Partnership believes that including adjusted EBITDA as a financial and operating measure benefits investors in (a) selecting between investing in the Partnership and other investment alternatives and (b) monitoring the Partnerships ongoing financial and operational strength in assessing whether to continue to hold common units. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other indicator of Golar Partners performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
