"The Partnership delivered yet another outstanding financial quarter highlighted by the resiliency of our portfolio and the strength of our organic growth opportunities. Volumes and producer activity continue to accelerate at our Ramsey plant in the Delaware Basin, where Train V is now online and Train II has returned to service," said Chief Executive Officer, Benjamin Fink. "Additionally, Ramsey Train VI remains on schedule to begin service in the fourth quarter of 2017."
Total throughput attributable to WES for natural gas assets for the fourth quarter of 2016 averaged 4.0 Bcf/d, which was 1% below the prior quarter and 3% above the fourth quarter of 2015. For full-year 2016, total throughput attributable to WES for natural gas assets averaged 3.9 Bcf/d, which was 5% below the prior-year average. Total throughput for crude/NGL assets for the fourth quarter of 2016 averaged 181 MBbls/d, which was 2% below the prior quarter and 3% below the fourth quarter of 2015.

Capital expenditures attributable to WES, including equity investments but excluding acquisitions, totaled $105.3 million on a cash basis and $135.0 million on an accrual basis during the fourth quarter of 2016, with maintenance capital expenditures on a cash basis of $8.3 million, or 3% of Adjusted EBITDA(1).

2017 OUTLOOK
WES and WGP also announced their 2017 outlook:
- Adjusted EBTIDA(1) between $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion (Please refer to slide 8 of the earnings call presentation available at www.westerngas.com for a reconciliation of items impacting the comparability of our 2017 Adjusted EBITDA(1) outlook to 2016 Adjusted EBITDA(1))
- Total capital expenditures between $900 million and $1.0 billion
- Maintenance capital expenditures between $60 million and $80 million
- 2017 and 2018 distribution growth targets of 7% to 9% for WES and 12% to 18% for WGP
"2017 will feature the largest capital program in our history. We continue to focus on the Delaware and DJ Basins, where Anadarko and other third-party producer activity is accelerating," said Fink. "These investments support our objective of providing sustainable distribution growth over time, allowing us to extend our distribution growth guidance to cover both 2017 and 2018. Additionally, we have successfully negotiated an early conversion of the Series A Preferred units in 2017, and therefore expect to be able to fund this capital program without the need for additional equity issuances."
The 2017 outlook includes the following assumptions:
- DBJV / Marcellus asset swap closing in the first quarter of 2017
- Ramsey Train VI start-up in the fourth quarter of 2017
- Mentone Trains I and II in the Delaware Basin beginning construction in 2017, with anticipated start-up dates in the third and fourth quarters of 2018, respectively
- Conversion of 50% of the Series A Preferred units into common units in February 2017 and 50% in May 2017
- Extension of the Class C units conversion date to March 1, 2020

A reconciliation of the Adjusted EBITDA range to net cash provided by operating activities and net income is not provided because the items necessary to estimate such amounts are not reasonably accessible or estimable at this time. |

Western Gas Partners, LP Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
Below are reconciliations of (i) net income (loss) attributable to Western Gas Partners, LP (GAAP) to WES's Distributable cash flow (non-GAAP), (ii) net income (loss) attributable to Western Gas Partners, LP (GAAP) and net cash provided by operating activities (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Western Gas Partners, LP ("Adjusted EBITDA") (non-GAAP), and (iii) operating income (loss) (GAAP) to Adjusted gross margin attributable to Western Gas Partners, LP ("Adjusted gross margin") (non-GAAP), as required under Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Management believes that WES's Distributable cash flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross margin, and Coverage ratio are widely accepted financial indicators of WES's financial performance compared to other publicly traded partnerships and are useful in assessing its ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and make distributions. Distributable cash flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross margin and Coverage ratio, as defined by WES, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Therefore, WES's Distributable cash flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross margin and Coverage ratio should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) attributable to Western Gas Partners, LP and other applicable performance measures, such as operating income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities.
Western Gas Partners, LP Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures, continued
Distributable Cash Flow
WES defines Distributable cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA, plus interest income and the net settlement amounts from the sale and/or purchase of natural gas, condensate and NGLs under WES's commodity price swap agreements to the extent such amounts are not recognized as Adjusted EBITDA, less net cash paid (or to be paid) for interest expense (including amortization of deferred debt issuance costs originally paid in cash, offset by non-cash capitalized interest), maintenance capital expenditures, Series A Preferred unit distributions and income taxes.
