The following discussion analyzes our financial condition and results of operations. You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 .
Overview
We are aDelaware limited partnership formed byDCP Midstream, LLC to own, operate, acquire and develop a diversified portfolio of complementary midstream energy assets. Our operations are organized into two reportable segments: (i) Logistics and Marketing and (ii) Gathering and Processing. Our Logistics and Marketing segment includes transporting, trading, marketing and storing natural gas and NGLs, and fractionating NGLs. Our Gathering and Processing segment consists of gathering, compressing, treating, and processing natural gas, producing and fractionating NGLs, and recovering condensate.
General Trends and Outlook
We anticipate our business will continue to be affected by the following key trends. Our expectations are based on assumptions made by us and information currently available to us. To the extent our underlying assumptions about, or interpretations of, available information prove to be incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from our expected results.
Our business is impacted by commodity prices and volumes. We mitigate a significant portion of commodity price risk on an overall Partnership basis through our fee-based assets and by executing on our hedging program. Various factors impact both commodity prices and volumes, and as indicated in Item
3 . "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk," we have sensitivities to certain cash and non-cash changes in commodity prices. Commodity prices have been volatile during 2022 and are subject to global energy supply and demand fundamentals as well as geopolitical disruptions. Drilling activity levels vary by geographic area and we will continue to target our strategy in geographic areas where we expect producer drilling activity. However, domestic exploration, development and production remain limited, and are growing slower than demand and our natural gas throughput and NGL volumes continue to be impacted as a result. Our long-term view is that commodity prices will be at levels that we believe will support sustained or increasing levels of domestic production. Our business is predominantly fee-based and we have a diversified portfolio to balance the upside of our earnings potential while reducing our commodity exposure. In addition, we use our strategic hedging program to further mitigate commodity price exposure. We expect future commodity prices will be influenced by tariffs and other global economic conditions, the level of North American production and drilling activity by exploration and production companies, the balance of trade between imports and exports of liquid natural gas, NGLs and crude oil, and the severity of winter and summer weather. We intend to be a proactive participant in the transition to a lower carbon energy future. InAugust 2021 , we announced two goals for companywide greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions. By 2030, our goal is to reduce our total Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 30% from our 2018 baseline. Additionally, by 2050, our goal is to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions. We plan to achieve these targets through increased efficiency and modernization of existing operations and reducing greenhouse gas emissions within the base business. We are continuously working to improve operational and energy efficiency through resource and energy conservation throughout our operations and made progress towards our goals by reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions across our operations by approximately 23% from the 2018 baseline through the end of 2021.We also plan to leverage our existing infrastructure to establish adjacent lines of business that capture growing market opportunities and capitalize on green energy growth. To measure and report progress against these targets, we utilize an emission calculation protocol intended to align with theEnergy Infrastructure Council (EIC) Midstream ESG Reporting Template, which is based upon the principles noted in theWorld Resources Institute (WRI) Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard & Scope 2 Protocols. While we believe these goals align with our long-term growth strategy and financial and operational priorities, they are aspirational and may change, and there is no guarantee that they will be met. Our business is primarily driven by the level of production of natural gas by producers and of NGLs from processing plants connected to our pipelines and fractionators. These volumes can be impacted negatively by, among other things, reduced drilling activity, depressed commodity prices, severe weather disruptions, operational outages and ethane rejection. Upstream producers reduced capital expenditures during 2021 and their response to changes in commodity prices and demand remain uncertain. 27 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We hedge commodity prices associated with a portion of our expected natural gas, NGL and condensate equity volumes in our Gathering and Processing segment. Drilling activity levels vary by geographic area, and we will continue to target our strategy in geographic areas where we expect producer drilling activity. We believe our contract structure with our producers provides us with significant protection from credit risk since we generally hold the product, sell it and withhold our fees prior to remittance of payments to the producer. Currently, our top 20 producers account for a majority of the total natural gas that we gather and process and of these top 20 producers, 5 have investment grade credit ratings. DuringFebruary 2021 , Winter Storm Uri resulted in lower volumes and abnormally high gas prices in certain regions. Certain counterparty billings during this time remain under dispute and are taking longer to collect than normal.
The global economic outlook continues to be a cause for concern for
We believe we are positioned to withstand future commodity price volatility as a result of the following:
•Our fee-based business represents a significant portion of our margins. •We have positive operating cash flow from our well-positioned and diversified assets. •We have a well-defined and targeted multi-year hedging program. •We manage our disciplined capital growth program with a significant focus on fee-based agreements and projects with long-term volume outlooks. •We believe we have a solid capital structure and balance sheet. •We believe we have access to sufficient capital to fund our growth including excess distribution coverage and divestitures. During 2022, our strategic objectives are to generate Excess Free Cash Flows (a non-GAAP measure defined in "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures - Excess Free Cash Flows") and reduce leverage. We believe the key elements to generating Excess Free Cash Flows are the diversity of our asset portfolio, our fee-based business which represents a significant portion of our estimated margins, plus our hedged commodity position, the objective of which is to protect against downside risk in our Excess Free Cash Flows. We will continue to pursue incremental revenue, cost efficiencies and operating improvements of our assets through process and technology improvements.
We incur capital expenditures for our consolidated entities and our
unconsolidated affiliates. Our 2022 plan includes sustaining capital
expenditures of between
Recent Events
Acquisition
OnAugust 1, 2022 , we completed the acquisition of 100 percent of the membership interests in the legal entities holding gathering and processing assets in thePermian Basin ("JamesLake System ") fromWoodland Midstream II .The James Lake System consists of complementary midstream infrastructure gas gathering and processing assets inWest Texas and associated contracts that will be integrated into our Permian region. The total consideration paid was$160 million funded with cash and borrowings on our Credit Facility, subject to customary post-closing adjustments for net working capital and debt. Due to the recent closing of this acquisition, the initial purchase price accounting for the transaction was not yet complete at the time of filing. We plan to provide these disclosures in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period endedSeptember 30, 2022 to be filed with theSEC . OnJuly 29, 2022 , we amended our Securitization Facility to, among other things, conform the sustainability adjustment provisions to the corresponding sustainability adjustment provisions in our Credit Facility, update the interest rate provisions to reflect an adjusted SOFR, and to include an uncommitted option to increase the total commitments under the Securitization Facility by up to an additional$400 million .

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We expect our sources of liquidity to include:
•cash generated from operations;
•cash distributions from our unconsolidated affiliates;
•borrowings under our Credit Agreement and Securitization Facility;
•proceeds from asset rationalization;
•debt offerings;
•borrowings under term loans, or other credit facilities; and
•issuances of additional common units, preferred units or other securities.
We anticipate our more significant uses of resources to include:
•quarterly distributions to our common unitholders and distributions to our preferred unitholders;
•payments to service our debt;
•capital expenditures;
•contributions to our unconsolidated affiliates to finance our share of their capital expenditures;
•business and asset acquisitions; and
•collateral with counterparties to our swap contracts to secure potential exposure under these contracts, which may, at times, be significant depending on commodity price movements.
We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to meet our short-term working capital requirements, long-term capital expenditures and quarterly cash distributions for at least the next twelve months.
We routinely evaluate opportunities for strategic investments or acquisitions. Future material investments or acquisitions may require that we obtain additional capital, assume third party debt or incur other long-term obligations. We have the option to utilize both equity and debt instruments as vehicles for the long-term financing of our investment activities or acquisitions. Based on current and anticipated levels of operations, we believe we have adequate committed financial resources to conduct our ongoing business, although deterioration in our operating environment could limit our borrowing capacity, impact our credit ratings, raise our financing costs, as well as impact our compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and other debt instruments. Senior Notes - OnJanuary 3, 2022 , we repaid, at par, prior to maturity all$350 million of aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 4.95% Senior Notes dueApril 1, 2022 , using borrowings under our Credit Facility and Securitization Facility. Credit Agreement -OnMarch 18, 2022 , we amended the Credit Agreement. The amendment extended the term of the Credit Agreement fromDecember 9, 2024 toMarch 18, 2027 . The amendment also includes sustainability linked key performance indicators that increase or decrease the applicable margin and facility fee payable thereunder based on our safety performance relative to our peers and year-over-year change in our greenhouse gas emissions intensity rate. The Credit Agreement provides up to$1.4 billion of borrowing capacity and bears interest at either the term SOFR rate or the base rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin based on our credit rating. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we had unused borrowing capacity of$1,380 million , net of$20 million letters of credit, under the Credit Agreement, of which$1,380 million would have been available to borrow for working capital and other general partnership purposes based on the financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement. Except in the case of a default, amounts borrowed under our Credit Agreement will not become due prior to theMarch 18, 2027 maturity date. As ofJuly 29, 2022 , we had unused borrowing capacity of$1,380 million , net of$20 million of letters of credit, under the Credit Agreement. Our cost of borrowing under the Credit Agreement is determined by a ratings-based pricing grid. 40 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility - As of
Issuance of Securities - InOctober 2020 , we filed a shelf registration statement with theSEC that became effective upon filing and allows us to issue an indeterminate number of common units, preferred units, debt securities, and guarantees of debt securities. InOctober 2020 , we also filed a shelf registration statement with theSEC , which allows us to issue up to$750 million in common units pursuant to our at-the-market program. During the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , we did not issue any common units pursuant to this registration statement, and$750 million remained available for future sales. Guarantee ofRegistered Debt Securities - The condensed consolidated financial statements ofDCP Midstream, LP , or "parent guarantor", include the accounts ofDCP Midstream Operating LP , or "subsidiary issuer", which is a 100% owned subsidiary, and all other subsidiaries which are all non-guarantor subsidiaries. The parent guarantor has agreed to fully and unconditionally guarantee the senior notes. The entirety of the Company's operating assets and liabilities, operating revenues, expenses and other comprehensive income exist at its non-guarantor subsidiaries, and the parent guarantor and subsidiary issuer have no assets, liabilities or operations independent of their respective financing activities and investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries. All covenants in the indentures governing the notes limit the activities of subsidiary issuer, including limitations on the ability to pay dividends, incur additional indebtedness, make restricted payments, create liens, sell assets or make loans to parent guarantor. The Company qualifies for alternative disclosure under Rule 13-01 of Regulation S-X, because the combined financial information of the subsidiary issuer and parent guarantor, excluding investments in subsidiaries that are not issuers or guarantors, reflect no material assets, liabilities or results of operations apart from their respective financing activities and investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries. Summarized financial information is presented as follows. The only assets, liabilities and results of operations of the subsidiary issuer and parent guarantor on a combined basis, independent of their respective investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries are: •Accounts payable and other current liabilities of$84 million and$81 million as ofJune 30, 2022 andDecember 31, 2021 , respectively; •Balances related to debt of$4.822 billion and$5.174 billion as ofJune 30, 2022 andDecember 31, 2021 , respectively; and •Interest expense, net of$69 million and$76 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and$138 million and$152 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Commodity Swaps and Collateral - Changes in natural gas, NGL and condensate prices and the terms of our processing arrangements have a direct impact on our generation and use of cash from operations due to their impact on net income, along with the resulting changes in working capital. For additional information regarding our derivative activities, please read Item 3. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" contained herein. When we enter into commodity swap contracts, we may be required to provide collateral to the counterparties in the event that our potential payment exposure exceeds a predetermined collateral threshold. Collateral thresholds are set by us and each counterparty, as applicable, in the master contract that governs our financial transactions based on our and the counterparty's assessment of creditworthiness. The assessment of our position with respect to the collateral thresholds are determined on a counterparty by counterparty basis, and are impacted by the representative forward price curves and notional quantities under our swap contracts. Due to the interrelation between the representative crude oil and natural gas forward price curves, it is not practical to determine a pricing point at which our swap contracts will meet the collateral thresholds as we may transact multiple commodities with the same counterparty. Depending on daily commodity prices, the amount of collateral posted can go up or down on a daily basis. Working Capital - Working capital is the amount by which current assets exceed current liabilities. Current assets are reduced in part by our quarterly distributions, which are required under the terms of our Partnership Agreement based on Available Cash, as defined in the Partnership Agreement. In general, our working capital is impacted by changes in the prices of commodities that we buy and sell, inventory levels, and other business factors that affect our net income and cash flows. Our working capital is also impacted by the timing of operating cash receipts and disbursements, cash collateral we may be required to post with counterparties to our commodity derivative instruments, borrowings of and payments on debt and the Securitization Facility, capital expenditures, and increases or decreases in other long-term assets. We expect that our future working capital 41 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- requirements will be impacted by these same recurring factors. DuringFebruary 2021 , Winter Storm Uri resulted in lower regional volumes and abnormally high gas prices for a period of days. A majority of our receivables associated with Winter Storm Uri have been collected. Certain counterparty billings during this time are under dispute and are taking longer to collect than normal, which continues to impact our working capital atJune 30, 2022 . We believe the amounts due to us are owed and are vigorously pursuing legal avenues to collect these receivables. We had working capital deficits of$267 million and$261 million as ofJune 30, 2022 andDecember 31, 2021 , respectively, driven by current maturities of long term debt of$505 million and$355 million , respectively. We had net derivative working capital deficits of$125 million and$59 million as ofJune 30, 2022 andDecember 31, 2021 , respectively.
Cash Flow - Operating, investing and financing activities were as follows:
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 2021 (millions) Net cash provided by operating activities $ 574$ 68 Net cash used in investing activities $ (61)$ (41) Net cash used in financing activities $ (506)$ (77)
Six Months Ended
Operating Activities - Net cash provided by operating activities increased$506 million in 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The changes in net cash provided by operating activities are attributable to our net income adjusted for non-cash charges and changes in working capital as presented in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. For additional information regarding fluctuations in our earnings and distributions from unconsolidated affiliates, please read "Supplemental Information on Unconsolidated Affiliates" under "Results of Operations".
Investing Activities - Net cash used in investing activities increased
Financing Activities - Net cash used in financing activities increased
Contractual Obligations - Material contractual obligations arising in the normal course of business primarily consist of purchase obligations, long-term debt and related interest payments, leases, and other long-term liabilities. See Note
8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1
"Financial Statements" for amounts outstanding on
Purchase Obligations are contractual obligations and include various non-cancelable commitments to purchase physical quantities of commodities in future periods and other items, including gas supply, fractionation and transportation agreements in the ordinary course of business.
Management believes that our cash and investment position and operating cash flows as well as capacity under existing and available credit agreements will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and capital requirements for the foreseeable future. We believe that our current and projected asset position is sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements. Capital Requirements - The midstream energy business can be capital intensive, requiring significant investment to maintain and upgrade existing operations. In the ordinary course of our business, we purchase physical commodities and enter into arrangements related to other items, including long-term fractionation and transportation agreements, in future periods. We establish a margin for these purchases by entering into physical and financial sale and exchange transactions to maintain a balanced position between purchases and sales and future delivery obligations. We expect to fund the obligations with the corresponding sales to entities that we deem creditworthy or who have provided credit support we consider adequate. We may enter into purchase order and non-cancelable construction agreements for capital expenditures. Our capital requirements have consisted primarily of, and we anticipate will continue to consist of the following: 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- •Sustaining capital expenditures, which are cash expenditures to maintain our cash flows, operating or earnings capacity. These expenditures add on to or improve capital assets owned, including certain system integrity, compliance and safety improvements. Sustaining capital expenditures also include certain well connects, and may include the acquisition or construction of new capital assets; and •Expansion capital expenditures, which are cash expenditures to increase our cash flows, or operating or earnings capacity. Expansion capital expenditures include acquisitions or capital improvements (where we add on to or improve the capital assets owned, or acquire or construct new gathering lines and well connects, treating facilities, processing plants, fractionation facilities, pipelines, terminals, docks, truck racks, tankage and other storage, distribution or transportation facilities and related or similar midstream assets).
We incur capital expenditures for our consolidated entities and our
unconsolidated affiliates. Our 2022 plan includes sustaining capital
expenditures of between
We expect to fund future acquisitions and capital expenditures with funds generated from our operations, borrowings under our Credit Agreement, Securitization Facility and the issuance of additional debt and equity securities. We funded our acquisition of theJames Lake system with with cash and borrowings on our Credit Facility. Future material investments or acquisitions may require that we obtain additional capital, assume third party debt or incur other long-term obligations. We have the option to utilize both equity and debt instruments as vehicles for the long-term financing of our investment activities and acquisitions. Cash Distributions to Unitholders - Our Partnership Agreement requires that, within 45 days after the end of each quarter, we distribute all Available Cash, as defined in the Partnership Agreement. We made cash distributions to our common unitholders and general partner of$163 million during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 and 2021.
On
On the same date, the board of directors of the General Partner declared a quarterly distribution on our Series B and Series C Preferred Units of$0.4922 and$0.4969 per unit, respectively. The Series B distributions will be paid onSeptember 15, 2022 to unitholders of record onSeptember 1, 2022 . The Series C distribution will be paid onOctober 17, 2022 to unitholders of record onOctober 3, 2022 .
We expect to continue to use cash provided by operating activities for the payment of distributions to our unitholders. See Note 10 . "Partnership Equity and Distributions" in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1. "Financial Statements."

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted Gross Margin and Segment Adjusted Gross Margin - In addition to net income, we view our adjusted gross margin as an important performance measure of the core profitability of our operations. We review our adjusted gross margin monthly for consistency and trend analysis. We define adjusted gross margin as total operating revenues, less purchases and related costs, and we define segment adjusted gross margin for each segment as total operating revenues for that segment less purchases and related costs for that segment. Our adjusted gross margin equals the sum of our segment adjusted gross margins. Adjusted gross margin and segment adjusted gross margin are primary performance measures used by management, as these measures represent the results of product sales and purchases, a key component of our operations. As an indicator of our operating performance, adjusted gross margin and segment adjusted gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, operating revenues, gross margin, segment gross margin, net income or loss, net income or loss attributable to partners, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe adjusted gross margin provides useful information to our investors because our management views our adjusted gross margin and segment adjusted gross margin as important performance measures that represent the results of product sales and purchases, a key component of our operations. We review our adjusted gross margin and segment adjusted gross margin monthly for consistency and trend analysis. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating our operating results. Adjusted EBITDA - We define adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss attributable to partners adjusted for (i) distributions from unconsolidated affiliates, net of earnings, (ii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iii) net interest expense, (iv) noncontrolling interest in depreciation and income tax expense, (v) unrealized gains and losses from commodity derivatives, (vi) income tax expense or benefit, (vii) impairment expense and (viii) certain other non-cash items. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes items of income or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations. Management believes these measures provide investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or loss, net income or loss attributable to partners, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance, liquidity or ability to service debt obligations. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental liquidity and performance measure and adjusted segment EBITDA is used as a supplemental performance measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others to assess:
•financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;
•our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing methods or capital structure;
•viability and performance of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on investment opportunities; and
•in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support our indebtedness, make cash distributions to our unitholders and pay capital expenditures.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA - We define adjusted segment EBITDA for each segment as segment net income or loss attributable to partners adjusted for (i) distributions from unconsolidated affiliates, net of earnings, (ii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iii) net interest expense, (iv) noncontrolling interest in depreciation and income tax expense, (v) unrealized gains and losses from commodity derivatives, (vi) income tax expense or benefit, (vii) impairment expense and (viii) certain other non-cash items. Adjusted segment EBITDA further excludes items of income or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations for that segment. Our adjusted segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate adjusted segment EBITDA in the same manner.
Adjusted segment EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to our financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, including operating revenues, net income or loss attributable to partners, or any other measure of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
Our adjusted gross margin, segment adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate these measures in the 44 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
same manner. The accompanying schedules provide reconciliations of adjusted gross margin, segment adjusted gross margin and adjusted segment EBITDA to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Distributable Cash Flow - We define Distributable Cash Flow as adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, less sustaining capital expenditures, net of reimbursable projects, less interest expense, less income attributable to preferred units, and certain other items. Sustaining capital expenditures are cash expenditures made to maintain our cash flows, operating or earnings capacity. These expenditures add on to or improve capital assets owned, including certain system integrity, compliance and safety improvements. Sustaining capital expenditures also include certain well connects, and may include the acquisition or construction of new capital assets. Income attributable to preferred units represent cash distributions earned by the preferred units. Cash distributions to be paid to the holders of the preferred units assuming a distribution is declared by our board of directors, are not available to common unit holders. Non-cash mark-to-market of derivative instruments is considered to be non-cash for the purpose of computing Distributable Cash Flow because settlement will not occur until future periods, and will be impacted by future changes in commodity prices and interest rates. Distributable Cash Flow is used as a supplemental liquidity and performance measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to assess our ability to make cash distributions to our unitholders and our general partner. Our Distributable Cash Flow may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate Distributable Cash Flow in the same manner. Excess Free Cash Flow - We define Excess Free Cash Flow as Distributable Cash Flow, as defined above, less distributions to limited partners, less expansion capital expenditures, net of reimbursable projects, and contributions to equity method investments and certain other items. Expansion capital expenditures are cash expenditures to increase our cash flows, or operating or earnings capacity. Expansion capital expenditures include acquisitions or capital improvements (where we add on to or improve the capital assets owned, or acquire or construct new gathering lines and well connects, treating facilities, processing plants, fractionation facilities, pipelines, terminals, docks, truck racks, tankage and other storage, distribution or transportation facilities and related or similar midstream assets). Excess Free Cash Flow is used as a supplemental liquidity and performance measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, and is useful to investors and management as a measure of our ability to generate cash. Once business needs and obligations are met, including cash reserves to provide funds for distribution payments on our units and the proper conduct of our business, which includes cash reserves for future capital expenditures and anticipated credit needs, this cash can be used to reduce debt, reinvest in the company for future growth, or return to unitholders. Our definition of Excess Free Cash Flow is limited in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures. Therefore, we believe the use of Excess Free Cash Flow for the limited purposes described above and in this report is not a substitute for net cash flows provided by operating activities, which is the most comparable GAAP measure. Excess Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate Excess Free Cash Flow in the same manner. 45
