SUMMIT MIDSTREAM PARTNERS, LP
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013
Throughout this report, when we use the terms "we," "us," "SMLP," or "the Partnership" we are referring to Summit Midstream Partners, LP, the partnership itself, or to Summit Midstream Partners, LP and its subsidiaries collectively, as the context requires.
Set forth below are our unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 which reflect SMLP's acquisition of the Bison Gas Gathering System from Summit Midstream Partners, LLC (“Summit Investments”) on June 4, 2013 (the "Bison Drop Down"). The Bison Gas Gathering System was carved out from Summit Investments' acquisition of Bear Tracker Energy, LLC ("BTE") which closed on February 15, 2013. Summit Investments accounted for its acquisition of BTE using the acquisition method of accounting.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was derived from the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of SMLP for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the unaudited condensed financial statements of the Bison Gas Gathering System for the periods from January 1, 2013 through February 15, 2013.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations reflect the Bison Drop Down as if such transaction had occurred as of January 1, 2012. Descriptions of the adjustments for the Bison Drop Down are presented in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of SMLP as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and accompanying notes should also be read in conjunction with (i) the historical financial statements of the Bison Gas Gathering System as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in SMLP's Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 5, 2013, (ii) SMLP's 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 18, 2013, (iii) SMLP's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2013 as filed with the SEC on May 14, 2013 (except Items 1 and 2 of Part I and Item 1A of Part II, which have been superseded by the Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 20, 2013), (iv) SMLP's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2013 as filed with the SEC on August 13, 2013, (v) SMLP's Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on September 27, 2013, and (vi) SMLP's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2013 as filed with the SEC on November 8, 2013.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations were derived by adjusting the historical financial statements of each entity based on currently available information and, therefore, the actual adjustments may materially differ from the pro forma adjustments. Because the Bison Drop Down was executed between entities under common control, SMLP accounted for the transaction on an “as if pooled” basis for all periods in which common control existed. Common control began on February 16, 2013.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not purport to present our results of operations had the Bison Drop Down actually been completed as of January 1, 2012. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not purport to present our results of operations had our June 2013 issuance of $300.0 million of senior notes, a portion of which was used to repay the draw on our revolving credit facility in connection with the Bison Drop Down, been completed at an earlier date. Further, these unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations do not reflect the effects of any cost savings or other synergies that may be achieved as a result of the Bison Drop Down, are based on assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, and are intended for informational purposes only. Moreover, the statements are not intended to project our results of operations for any future period.
