DENVER , Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Antero Midstream Corporation (NYSE: AM) ("Antero Midstream" or the "Company") today announced its third quarter 2024 financial and operating results. The relevant unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are included in Antero Midstream's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company announced that Jeffrey Muñoz has been appointed to its Board of Directors (the "Board"), effective October 29, 2024.

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights:

Net Income was $100 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, a 5% per share increase compared to the prior year quarter
Adjusted Net Income was $113 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in line with the prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)
Adjusted EBITDA was $256 million, a 2% increase compared to the prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)
Free Cash Flow after dividends was $40 million, a 32% increase compared to the prior year quarter (non-GAAP measure)
Maintained Leverage of 3.1x as of September 30, 2024 (non-GAAP measure)
Announced the addition of Jeffrey Muñoz to the Board of Directors

Paul Rady, Chairman and CEO said, "We are pleased to announce that Jeffrey Muñoz has been appointed to the Board of Directors. Mr. Muñoz has over 30 years of experience in the energy industry with legal and accounting expertise and will be a valuable addition to the Board."

Mr. Rady further added, "During the third quarter, Antero Midstream generated $40 million of Free Cash Flow after dividends, which was an increase of 32% from last year. This represents the ninth consecutive quarter of generating Free Cash Flow after dividends and brings the year-to-date total to almost $160 million."

Brendan Krueger, CFO of Antero Midstream, said "Consistent with our absolute debt and leverage reduction targets, Antero Midstream continued to pay down debt during the third quarter. Following the acceleration of capital into the third quarter due to favorable weather conditions, we expect a significant decline in capital in the fourth quarter. This reduction in capital is expected to result in increased Free Cash Flow, positioning us well to achieve our 3.0x leverage target during the quarter."

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Low pressure gathering volumes for the third quarter of 2024 averaged 3,277 MMcf/d, a 1% decrease compared to the prior year quarter. Compression volumes for the third quarter of 2024 averaged 3,269 MMcf/d, in line with the prior year quarter. High pressure gathering volumes averaged 3,046 MMcf/d, a 4% increase compared to the prior year quarter. Fresh water delivery volumes averaged 71 MBbl/d during the quarter, a 33% decrease compared to the third quarter of 2023. The reduction in fresh water delivery volumes was driven by the reduction in completion crews operating for Antero Resources from two completion crews in the third quarter of 2023 to one completion crew in the third quarter of 2024.

Gross processing volumes from the processing and fractionation joint venture with MPLX, LP (the "Joint Venture") averaged 1,620 MMcf/d for the third quarter of 2024, in line with the prior year quarter. Joint Venture processing capacity was 100% utilized during the quarter based on nameplate processing capacity of 1.6 Bcf/d. Gross Joint Venture fractionation volumes averaged 40 MBbl/d, in line with the prior year quarter. Joint Venture fractionation capacity was 100% utilized during the quarter based on nameplate fractionation capacity of 40 MBbl/d.

Third Quarter 2024 Operating Update

During the third quarter of 2024, Antero Midstream connected 23 wells to its gathering system and serviced 9 wells with its fresh water delivery system.

Capital Investments

Capital expenditures were $56 million during the third quarter of 2024. The Company invested $49 million in gathering and compression, $6 million in water infrastructure, and $1 million in the Stonewall Joint Venture for an expansion to improve connectivity to the Mountain Valley Pipeline. The increase in capital expenditures during the quarter was driven by favorable weather conditions and the acceleration of capital into the third quarter. As a result, Antero Midstream expects a sequential decline in capital expenditures during the fourth quarter to remain in line with its annual 2024 capital budget guidance of $150 to $170 million.

2024 Guidance Update

Antero Midstream is adjusting its 2024 net income, adjusted net income, and interest expense guidance. The changes are driven primarily by increased interest expense as a result of higher interest rates and other non-cash items related to the refinancing of senior notes and credit facility in 2024. All other guidance ranges remain unchanged.

	Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2024		Change vs. Prior Guidance
	Low	High	(At midpoint)
Net Income	$400	$420	$(25)
Adjusted Net Income	465	485	(15)
Interest Expense	200	210	10

Antero Midstream appointed Jeffrey Muñoz to its Board as a Class II Director. He is an independent director under the director independence standards set forth in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions

Antero Midstream uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. Antero Midstream defines Adjusted Net Income as Net Income plus amortization of customer relationships, impairment of property and equipment, loss on early extinguishment of debt, and loss (gain) on asset sale, net of tax effect of reconciling items. Antero Midstream uses Adjusted Net Income to assess the operating performance of its assets. Antero Midstream defines Adjusted EBITDA as Net Income plus net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation expense, amortization of customer relationships, loss (gain) on asset sale, accretion of asset retirement obligations, impairment of property and equipment, loss on early extinguishment of debt, loss on settlement of asset retirement obligations, and equity-based compensation expense, excluding equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, plus distributions from unconsolidated affiliates.

Antero Midstream uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess:

the financial performance of Antero Midstream's assets, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;
its operating performance and return on capital as compared to other publicly traded companies in the midstream energy sector, without regard to financing or capital structure; and
the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects.

Antero Midstream defines Free Cash Flow before dividends as Adjusted EBITDA less net interest expense and accrual-based capital expenditures. Capital expenditures include additions to gathering systems and facilities, additions to water handling systems, and investments in unconsolidated affiliates. Capital expenditures exclude acquisitions. Free Cash Flow after dividends is defined as Free Cash Flow before dividends less accrual-based dividends declared for the quarter. Antero Midstream uses Free Cash Flow before and after dividends as a performance metric to compare the cash generating performance of Antero Midstream from period to period.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Free Cash Flow before and after dividends are non-GAAP financial measures. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to these measures is Net Income. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the GAAP measures of Net Income and cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities. The presentations of such measures are not made in accordance with GAAP and have important limitations as analytical tools because they include some, but not all, items that affect Net Income and cash flows provided by operating activities. You should not consider any or all such measures in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP. Antero Midstream's definitions of such measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following table reconciles cash paid for capital expenditures and accrued capital expenditures during the period (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,

Change in accrued capital costs		11,985	(163)
Capital expenditures (accrual basis)	$	57,271	56,265

Antero Midstream defines Net Debt as consolidated total debt, excluding unamortized debt premiums and debt issuance costs, less cash and cash equivalents. Antero Midstream views Net Debt as an important indicator in evaluating Antero Midstream's financial leverage. Antero Midstream defines leverage as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Net Debt is total debt, excluding unamortized debt premiums and debt issuance costs.
