HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BBVA USA, as Trustee of the San Juan Basin Royalty Trust (the “Trust”) (NYSE:SJT), today announced a status update to the monthly reporting by the owner of the Trust’s subject interests, Hilcorp San Juan L.P. (“Hilcorp”).

Hilcorp previously informed the Trust that it has only reported estimates of revenue and severance taxes applicable to the Trust’s subject interests for certain months due to Hilcorp’s ongoing transition to a new accounting system. As previously announced on July 20, 2021, Hilcorp’s May 2021 report included true-ups to the lease operating expense, property tax and capital cost categories for the production months of January 2021 through April 2021. However, the May 2021 reporting month was based on estimated revenue and severance tax. Therefore, Hilcorp will need to adjust the previously reported revenue and severance tax categories for the production months of January 2021 through May 2021 for operated wells.

On July 21, 2021, Hilcorp informed the Trust it was continuing to work internally on the revenue and severance tax reporting issues. Hilcorp was unable to confirm whether next month’s distribution would be based on estimated or actual revenue received and severance tax paid. Additionally, Hilcorp was unable to provide a specific timeline when the true-ups to the revenue and severance tax categories would occur. However, to the extent Hilcorp has underpaid the Trust, Hilcorp will be obligated to pay the Trust interest (prime rate plus 4%) as required by the Conveyance. Hilcorp has confirmed that it will waive interest to the extent there are any overpayments to the Trust based on true-ups in 2021.

The Trustee continues to prioritize these ongoing reporting issues. To this end, the Trustee remains engaged with Hilcorp regarding Hilcorp’s transition to a new accounting system and to define a timeline for when the true-ups to the revenue and severance categories will occur. The Trustee will continue to correspond with Hilcorp and the Trust’s third-party compliance auditors to ensure consistent, accurate, and timely reporting and recovery of any underpayments (plus interest) that may be owed.

AKRON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The following is a statement from Ripp Media on behalf of Former FirstEnergy CEO Chuck Jones:

Mr. Jones did not engage in any unlawful activity or violate any of FirstEnergy’s policies. Mr. Jones also believes that no other FirstEnergy employee engaged in unlawful activities in their dealings with government officials. Mr. Jones did not make or authorize any payment of any money to any public official in exchange for any official act.

Whether one agrees with it or not, the First Amendment and campaign finance laws allow the use of 501(c)(4) entities for appropriate political activity; allow individuals and corporations to support political candidates in a lawful manner; and allow individuals and corporations to lobby on behalf of legislation and government policies.

Mr. Jones is very disappointed that FirstEnergy would falsely implicate so many hard working and dedicated employees in wrongdoing who were committed to implementing the Board’s stated goals.

  • 2021 financial performance in line with annual guidance
  • Reported net loss of $6.6 million and $4.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively
  • Reported adjusted EBITDA of $22.5 million and $53.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively

  • Declares quarterly distribution of $0.005 or $0.02 per unit annually
  • Announces Revolving Credit Facility Amendment

KILGORE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq:MMLP) (the "Partnership") today announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2021.

“For the second quarter of 2021, the Partnership had a solid performance in line with our annual projected cash flows of between $95 million to $102 million,” stated Bob Bondurant, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership. “As the country returns to a more open economy and refinery utilization increases, we have seen heightened demand for our services particularly within the land transportation and lubricants businesses. However, the impact of COVID-19 is still reflected in a reduction in sulfur service volumes and lower marine day rates year over year. As expected, marine utilization has increased from last quarter and we anticipate the continued economic recovery will drive demand upward allowing for the further utilization of our asset base.”

“Looking to the third quarter, which is seasonally our weakest due to the cyclical nature of both the fertilizer and butane businesses, we amended our revolving credit facility in response to rising commodity prices and the continued impact of COVID-19 on the Partnership’s trailing twelve month cash flows. I’d like thank our lenders for recognizing our ongoing commitment to capital discipline through their support of the amendment.”

SECOND QUARTER 2021 OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

TERMINALLING AND STORAGE (“T&S”)

T&S Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $3.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA for T&S was $10.6 million for each of the three month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, reflecting increased volumes on packaged lubricants products, offset by expired capital recovery fees at the Smackover Refinery.

TRANSPORTATION

Transportation Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA for Transportation was $5.0 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, reflecting higher land transportation load count and rates, offset by lower marine day rates coupled with a reduction in marine equipment.

Sulfur Services Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $6.3 million and $7.4 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA for Sulfur Services was $8.9 million and $10.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, reflecting lower refinery utilization volumes during the second quarter of 2021 as a result of continued effects of COVID-19.

NATURAL GAS LIQUIDS (“NGL”)

NGL Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA for NGL was $1.7 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, primarily reflecting increased margins in our butane optimization business, offset by a reduction in NGL margins due to rising commodity prices.

UNALLOCATED SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE (“USGA”)

USGA expenses included in operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $3.8 million and $4.4 million, respectively.

USGA expenses included in adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $3.7 million and $4.0 million, respectively, primarily reflecting a reduction in overhead allocated from Martin Resource Management.

LIQUIDITY

At June 30, 2021, the Partnership had $180 million drawn on its $300 million revolving credit facility, an increase of $4 million from March 31, 2021. The Partnership’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the revolving credit facility, was 5.3 times and 5.4 times on June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively. The Partnership is in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021.

REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AMENDMENT

The Partnership announced today the amendment of its revolving credit facility effective July 16, 2021. The amendment revises certain financial covenant ratios and reduces the aggregate amount of commitments from $300 million to $275 million, among other things.

Royal Bank of Canada serves as administrative agent and collateral agent for the facility. Baker Botts L.L.P acted as legal counsel to the Partnership.

QUARTERLY CASH DISTRIBUTION

The Partnership has declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.005 per unit for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The distribution is payable on August 13, 2021 to common unitholders of record as of the close of business on August 6, 2021. The ex-dividend date for the cash distribution is August 5, 2021.

QUALIFIED NOTICE TO NOMINEES

This release serves as qualified notice to nominees as provided for under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1446-4(b)(4) and (d).

Accordingly, all of the Partnership's distributions to foreign investors are subject to federal income tax withholding at the highest effective tax rate for individuals or corporations, as applicable. Nominees, and not the Partnership, are treated as withholding agents responsible for withholding on the distributions received by them on behalf of foreign investors.

COVID-19 RESPONSE

The Partnership continues to evaluate protocols in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of variants of COVID-19, such as the Delta variant. Where possible, employee work from home initiatives remain and travel restrictions have been lifted.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements about the Partnership’s outlook and all other statements in this release other than historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements and all references to guidance or to financial or operational estimates or projections rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties, including (i) the current and potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic generally, on an industry-specific basis, and on the Partnership’s specific operations and business, (ii) the effects of the continued volatility of commodity prices and the related macroeconomic and political environment, and (iii) other factors, many of which are outside its control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. While the Partnership believes that the assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are inherent difficulties in anticipating or predicting certain important factors. A discussion of these factors, including risks and uncertainties, is set forth in the Partnership’s annual and quarterly reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Partnership disclaims any intention or obligation to revise any forward-looking statements, including financial estimates, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise except where required to do so by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Partnership's management uses a variety of financial and operational measurements other than its financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") to analyze its performance. These include: (1) net income before interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), (2) adjusted EBITDA, (3) distributable cash flow and (4) adjusted free cash flow. The Partnership's management views these measures as important performance measures of core profitability for its operations and the ability to generate and distribute cash flow, and as key components of its internal financial reporting. The Partnership's management believes investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The Partnership defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before unit-based compensation expenses, gains and losses on the disposition of property, plant and equipment, impairment and other similar non-cash adjustments. Certain items excluded from EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing an entity's financial performance, such as cost of capital and historical costs of depreciable assets. The Partnership has included information concerning EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because it provides investors and management with additional information to better understand the following: financial performance of the Partnership's assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis; the Partnership's operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other similarly situated entities; and the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects. The Partnership's method of computing adjusted EBITDA may not be the same method used to compute similar measures reported by other entities. The economic substance behind the Partnership's use of adjusted EBITDA is to measure the ability of the Partnership's assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support its indebtedness and make distributions to its unitholders.

Distributable Cash Flow. The Partnership defines Distributable Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for interest, cash paid for income taxes, maintenance capital expenditures, and plant turnaround costs. Distributable cash flow is a significant performance measure used by the Partnership's management and by external users of its financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to compare basic cash flows generated by the Partnership to the cash distributions it expects to pay unitholders. Distributable cash flow is also an important financial measure for the Partnership's unitholders since it serves as an indicator of the Partnership's success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this financial measure indicates to investors whether or not the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain or support an increase in its quarterly distribution rates. Distributable cash flow is also a quantitative standard used throughout the investment community with respect to publicly-traded partnerships because the value of a unit of such an entity is generally determined by the unit's yield, which in turn is based on the amount of cash distributions the entity pays to a unitholder.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as distributable cash flow less growth capital expenditures and principal payments under finance lease obligations. Adjusted free cash flow is a significant performance measure used by the Partnership's management and by external users of our financial statements and represents how much cash flow a business generates during a specified time period after accounting for all capital expenditures, including expenditures for growth and maintenance capital projects. The Partnership believes that adjusted free cash flow is important to investors, lenders, commercial banks and research analysts since it reflects the amount of cash available for reducing debt, investing in additional capital projects, paying distributions, and similar matters. The Partnership's calculation of adjusted free cash flow may or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities.

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, and adjusted free cash flow should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure presented in accordance with GAAP. The Partnership's method of computing these measures may not be the same method used to compute similar measures reported by other entities.

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Advent Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADN) (“Advent” or the “Company”) today announced that it has been nominated by the Greek Ministry of Development and Investment to be part of the first wave of Important Projects of Common European Interest (“IPCEI”) on Hydrogen.


Advent has also been selected by the Ministry to be the Coordinator of Technology Field 2 dedicated to fuel cells and associated technologies. As part of this process, Advent has been participating in "Challenge Sessions" where EU participating companies selected by their respective Member States are collaborating to formulate a common work plan that will set the roadmap to achieve the objectives of the hydrogen IPCEI.

Beyond coordinating Technology Field 2, Advent’s new responsibilities include preparing a joint document outlining the requirements and objectives of fuel cells in mobility and stationary markets to reach cost targets for a viable hydrogen ecosystem. This joint document will be part of a chapeau document that will justify all eligibility and compatibility conditions of IPCEI.

Advent will also be spearheading the Green HiPo project as part of the overall, joint “White Dragon” project. Along with a consortium of companies, Advent submitted a plan to the European Union and Greek government in May that will push forward the hydrogen economy in Greece. The Green HiPo project will develop, design, and manufacture fully scalable and highly efficient high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane (“HT-PEM”) fuel cells for the production of power and heat.

Dr. Vasilis Gregoriou, Advent Chairman and CEO, stated, “We are excited to participate as the fuel cell partner in this submission of such a large-scale European project. This is the next crucial step for the creation and development of clean energy hydrogen technologies in Greece. The Green HiPo project is part of a thrilling long-term venture that is the key to unlocking our transition to greener power creation and transmission in Greece, and potentially, across the European Union.”

The electricity and heat provided by Advent will become a necessary solution for the country's energy transition as Greece plans to decommission all lignite-fired power plants by 2028. A new state-of-the-art facility in Western Macedonia will be home to the production of fuel cells and will contribute to the economic development of the region by providing approximately 1,400 jobs in innovative sustainable technology. The facility will initially manufacture fuel cells of 15kW/unit, gradually reaching 120kW, and then reaching 1MW scale single units before finally becoming a multi-MW platform.

Within seven years, Advent is set to support the full ramp-up to 400MW of renewable energy/electricity and 400MW of heat. The Green HiPo project will also create a manufacturing line of electrolyzers with a power level of 4.65GW.

About The White Dragon Project

On May 5, 2021, the national proposal for hydrogen technologies “White Dragon” was submitted by a group of the largest energy companies in Greece (DEPA Commercial in collaboration with Advent Technologies, Damco Energy S.A. (Copelouzos Group Company), PPC Greece, The Hellenic Gas Transmission System Operator (“DESFA”) S.A., Hellenic Petroleum, Motor Oil, Corinth Pipeworks, TAP and Terna Energy (together the “consortium”)). The proposal sent to the Greek government and the European Union is a more than eight-billion-euro plan over seven years for the development of an innovative, integrated green hydrogen project in Greece. The objective of the project is to gradually replace the lignite power plants of Western Macedonia and transition to clean energy production and transmission, with the ultimate goal of fully decarbonizing Greece’s energy system.

About Advent Technologies Holdings, Inc.

Advent Technologies Holdings, Inc. is a U.S. corporation that develops, manufactures, and assembles critical components for fuel cells and advanced energy systems in the renewable energy sector. Advent is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, with offices in the San Francisco Bay Area and Europe.

MANCHESTER, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A multi-million pound partnership between Octopus Hydrogen and Luxfer Gas Cylinders is paving the way to make heavy goods transportation and the aviation industries cleaner and greener.



Luxfer Gas Cylinders - a leading manufacturer of high-pressure composite and aluminum cylinders worldwide – is joining forces with Octopus Hydrogen – a subsidiary of green energy tech pioneer Octopus Energy – in the specification and supply of bulk gas transport modules that will carry green hydrogen across the UK.

The 40ft long units designed by Luxfer, which are called Multiple Element Gas Containers (MEGC), can transport 1.1 tonnes of hydrogen from the electrolyser plant to the point of use. They will be deployed from mid-2022 and will help address the infrastructure barrier that is impacting wide adoption of the technology.

William Rowe, CEO and Founder of Octopus Hydrogen, said: “Our focus is on delivering green hydrogen to the sectors which cannot be decarbonised by batteries alone, mainly aviation and heavy-duty road vehicles. We are building a network of decentralised green hydrogen production sites using electrolysis, co-located with renewable energy generation, with localised distribution.

“We are working with Luxfer Gas Cylinders to make green hydrogen for mobility a reality. Luxfer understands the challenges of safely transporting large amounts of hydrogen and is delivering a fantastic solution now and has a great future roadmap."

Luxfer’s alternative fuel experts have a proven track record in developing and supplying bulk gas transport solutions across Europe, Asia Pacific and North America.

Mark Lawday, Global Sales Director from Luxfer added: “We manufacture over one million high performance, high pressure cylinders every year. In the alternative fuel sector, we have a team of designers and engineers who develop industry leading systems, integrating lightweight composite cylinders into fuel system modules for compressed natural gas and hydrogen applications ranging from buses, trucks, boats to bulk gas transport trailers.

“Bulk gas transport for hydrogen is an important piece of the jigsaw in enabling the hydrogen economy to be fully realised and reach net zero goals. It’s an exciting step forward, and we’re proud to be working alongside Octopus Hydrogen to drive forward innovation.”

Work to deliver the systems will be led from Luxfer’s UK manufacturing campus in Nottingham, which is home to an alternative fuel team that has designed bespoke hydrogen systems for world-first transport projects including double decker hydrogen buses, HGVs, and the UK’s first hydrogen train.
