USD Partners LP Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results

Houston, TX - USD Partners LP (NYSE: USDP) (the “Partnership”) announced today its operating and financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Financial highlights with respect to the second quarter of 2022 include the following:

•Closed acquisition of the Hardisty South Terminal entities from its Sponsor, effective April 1, 2022

•Generated Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities of $6.2 million, Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $11.6 million and Distributable Cash Flow(1) of $10.2 million

•Reported Net Income of $3.8 million

•Declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.1235 per unit ($0.494 per unit on an annualized basis) with approximately 2.5x Distributable Cash Flow Coverage(2)

“We are pleased to announce another eventful quarter at the Partnership,” said Dan Borgen, the Partnership’s Chief Executive Officer. “During the second quarter, we closed the acquisition of Hardisty South from our Sponsor as well as the simplification of the Partnership’s financial structure by eliminating its IDRs and economic GP interest. We feel that this was an appropriate step to maintain our momentum in 2022 and 2023 as we continue to have detailed discussions regarding our DRUbit™ by Rail™ network with new and existing customers to provide safer and economically beneficial Canadian crude transportation options. As always, we look forward to sharing additional announcements around our DRU program and other initiatives with you before the end of the year.”

Acquisition of Hardisty South

On April 6, 2022, the Partnership announced that it had closed the acquisition of the Hardisty South Terminal assets (“Hardisty South”) from USD Group LLC (“USDG” or the “Sponsor”), and exchanged the Sponsor’s economic general partner interest in the Partnership (“GP Interest”) for a non-economic GP Interest and eliminated the Sponsor’s incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) in the Partnership for total consideration of $75 million in cash and approximately 5.75 million common units (the “Transaction”). The cash portion of the transaction was funded with borrowings under the Partnership’s $275 million senior secured credit facility.

The Transaction was approved by the Board of Directors of the general partner of the Partnership based on the approval and recommendation of its Conflicts Committee, which consists entirely of independent directors.

Today, the Partnership’s combined Hardisty Terminal has the designed takeaway capacity of three and one-half unit trains per day, or approximately 262,500 barrels per day, including the newly-acquired Hardisty South Terminal. The acquisition of the Hardisty South Terminal increases the size, scale and growth capacity of the Partnership’s asset base, while optimizing operational and commercial synergies of

the Hardisty Terminal in order to capitalize on the potential future growth benefits associated with the Sponsor’s Diluent Recovery Unit (“DRU”) program.

Commercial Update

At the end of June 2022, contracts representing approximately 26% of the combined Hardisty Terminal’s capacity expired. In addition, the remaining contracted capacity at the Stroud Terminal also expired at the end of June 2022. Management is focused on renewing, extending or replacing the agreements that have expired or are set to expire at the Hardisty and Stroud Terminals in mid-2022 and mid-2023 with new, multi-year, take or pay commitments and is actively engaging with current and new customers. Given current and expected market conditions, the Partnership’s estimates for future heavy crude oil production in Western Canada and the current availability of egress alternatives, management believes that the Partnership will have the opportunity to renew and extend or replace the agreements that recently expired during the second half of 2022 or in early 2023.

Partnership’s Second Quarter 2022 Liquidity, Operational and Financial Results

Substantially all of the Partnership’s cash flows are generated from multi-year, take-or-pay terminalling services agreements related to its crude oil terminals, which include minimum monthly commitment fees. The Partnership’s customers include major integrated oil companies, refiners and marketers, the majority of which are investment-grade rated.

The Partnership’s financial statements have been retrospectively recast to include the pre-acquisition results of the Hardisty South acquisition because the acquisition represented a business combination between entities under common control.

The Partnership’s operating results for the second quarter of 2022 relative to the same quarter in 2021 were primarily influenced by lower revenue at Hardisty South due to revenue that was recognized in the second quarter of 2021 associated with an early contract cancellation payment with no similar occurrence in 2022. In addition, revenue at the Stroud Terminal was lower in the second quarter 2022 associated with a decrease in contracted volume commitments at the terminal that became effective August 2021. The Partnership also had lower storage revenue generated at its Casper Terminal associated with the end of one of its customer contracts that occurred in September 2021 coupled with lower throughput volumes at the terminal. Partially offsetting these decreases in revenue was higher revenue at the Partnership’s West Colton Terminal resulting from the commencement of the renewable diesel contract that occurred in December 2021.

The Partnership experienced lower operating costs during the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2021 primarily attributable to a decrease in selling, general and administrative costs (“SG&A costs”) associated with the Hardisty South entities as well as a decrease in pipeline fee expenses. The lower pipeline fee expense is directly attributable to the relative decrease in Hardisty South revenue previously discussed, as compared to the second quarter of 2021. In addition, subcontracted rail services costs were lower due to decreased throughput at the terminals.

The second quarter 2021 SG&A costs include service fees paid by Hardisty South to our Sponsor related to a services agreement that was in place with our Sponsor prior to the Partnership’s acquisition of

Hardisty South. Upon the Partnership’s acquisition of Hardisty South, the services agreement between the acquired entities and the Partnership’s Sponsor was terminated and a similar agreement was established between those entities and the Partnership. This results in the service fee income being allocated to the Partnership, and therefore offsetting the expense in Hardisty South for periods subsequent to the acquisition date of April 1, 2022. Partially offsetting this decrease were higher corporate SG&A costs incurred in the second quarter of 2022 for legal and consulting fees related to the aforementioned acquisition of Hardisty South of approximately $2.6 million.

Partially offsetting the decreases mentioned above were higher operating and maintenance costs at the Hardisty and Hardisty South terminals for increased operational supplies, fuel and utilities costs primarily due to increased inflation rates.

Net income decreased in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2021 primarily because of the operating factors discussed above coupled with higher interest expense incurred during the second quarter of 2022 resulting from higher interest rates and a higher balance of debt outstanding during the quarter, partially offset by a decrease in commitment fees, as compared to the second quarter of 2021. Partially offsetting the decrease was a non-cash gain associated with the Partnership’s interest rate derivatives recognized in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to a non-cash loss recognized during the same period of 2021.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities for the quarter decreased 74% relative to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to the operating factors discussed above and the general timing of receipts and payments of accounts receivable, accounts payable and deferred revenue balances.

Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow (“DCF”) both decreased by 29% for the quarter relative to the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA and DCF was primarily a result of the factors discussed above. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF for the three months ended June 30, 2022 include the impact of the aforementioned $2.6 million of transaction expenses incurred during the period associated with the recent acquisition of Hardisty South. Additionally, DCF was positively impacted by lower cash paid for interest, taxes and maintenance capital expenditures during the quarter.

As of June 30, 2022, the Partnership had approximately $4.3 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and undrawn borrowing capacity of $43 million on its $275.0 million senior secured credit facility, subject to the Partnership’s continued compliance with financial covenants. As of the end of the second quarter of 2022, the Partnership had borrowings of $232.0 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility. The Partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants as of June 30, 2022. The Partnership’s acquisition of Hardisty South is treated as a Material Acquisition under the terms of its senior secured credit facility. As a result, the Partnership’s available borrowings will be limited to 5.0 times its 12-month trailing consolidated EBITDA through December 31, 2022, at which point it will revert back to 4.5 times the Partnership’s 12-month trailing consolidated EBITDA. As such, the borrowing capacity and available borrowings under the senior secured credit facility, including unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, was approximately $47.3 million as of June 30, 2022. Subsequent to quarter end, on July 27, 2022, the Partnership settled its existing interest rate swap for proceeds of $7.7 million. The Partnership plans to use the proceeds from this settlement to pay down outstanding debt on its senior secured credit facility. The Partnership simultaneously entered into a new interest rate swap that was made

effective as of August 17, 2022. The new interest rate swap is a five-year contract with a $175.0 million notional value that fixes the secured overnight financing rate, or SOFR, to 2.686% for the notional value of the swap agreement instead of the variable rate that the Partnership pays under the Partnership’s Credit Agreement.

On July 20, 2022, the Partnership declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.1235 per unit ($0.494 per unit on an annualized basis), the same as the amount distributed in the prior quarter. The distribution is payable on August 12, 2022, to unitholders of record at the close of business on August 3, 2022. The Partnership’s board determined to keep the distribution unchanged from the prior quarter and to evaluate the distribution on a quarterly basis going forward and will take into consideration updated commercial progress, including the Partnership’s ability to renew, extend or replace its customer agreements at the Hardisty and Stroud Terminals, as well as recent changes to the market.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Partnership defines Adjusted EBITDA as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities adjusted for changes in working capital items, interest, income taxes, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and other items which do not affect the underlying cash flows produced by the Partnership’s businesses. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP, supplemental financial measure used by management and external users of the Partnership’s financial statements, such as investors and commercial banks, to assess:

•the Partnership’s liquidity and the ability of the Partnership’s businesses to produce sufficient cash flows to make distributions to the Partnership’s unitholders; and

•the Partnership’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures.

The Partnership defines Distributable Cash Flow, or DCF, as Adjusted EBITDA less net cash paid for interest, income taxes and maintenance capital expenditures. DCF does not reflect changes in working capital balances. DCF is a non-GAAP, supplemental financial measure used by management and by external users of the Partnership’s financial statements, such as investors and commercial banks, to assess:

•the amount of cash available for making distributions to the Partnership’s unitholders;

•the excess cash flow being retained for use in enhancing the Partnership’s existing business; and

•the sustainability of the Partnership’s current distribution rate per unit.

The Partnership believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF in this press release provides information that enhances an investor’s understanding of the Partnership’s ability to generate cash for payment of distributions and other purposes. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and DCF is Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF should not be considered alternatives to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities or any other measure of liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF exclude some, but not all, items that affect Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities and these measures may vary among other companies. As a result, Adjusted EBITDA and DCF may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Adjusted EBITDA and DCF are presented in this press release.

(4)	Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Hardisty South entities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was excluded from the Partnership’s Adjusted EBITDA, as these amounts were generated by the Hardisty South entities prior to the Partnership’s acquisition and therefore, they were not amounts that could be distributed to the Partnership’s unitholders. Refer to the table provided below for a reconciliation of “Net cash provided by operating activities” to Adjusted EBITDA for the Hardisty South entities prior to acquisition.
(5)	Includes the net effect of tax refunds of $84 thousand received in the second quarter of 2022 associated with carrying back U.S. net operating losses incurred during 2020 and prior periods allowed for by the provisions of the CARES Act.
(6)	Cash payments made for income taxes, interest and maintenance capital expenditures attributable to the Hardisty South entities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were excluded from the Partnership’s DCF calculations, as these amounts were generated by the Hardisty South entities prior to the Partnership’s acquisition. Included for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $59 thousand of cash paid for interest. Included for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $142 thousand of cash paid for interest. Included for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $165 thousand of cash paid for income taxes, $307 thousand of cash paid for interest, partially offset by a net refund of $71 thousand related to maintenance capital expenditures.
