Reconciliation to GAAP Metrics Non-GAAP Financial Measures We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, such as other income and other non‑cash, non‑recurring items, if applicable. We define Adjusted EBITDA attributable to HESM as Adjusted EBITDA less Adjusted EBITDA attributable to HIP’s retained interests in our joint interest assets. We define Distributable Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for interest and maintenance capital expenditures. We define Distributable Cash Flow attributable to HESM as Adjusted EBITDA attributable to HESM less cash paid for interest and maintenance capital expenditures attributable to HESM. Distributable cash flow does not reflect changes in working capital balances. We define Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow are non‑GAAP supplemental financial measures that management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess: our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, financing methods; the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unitholders; our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow or Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Free Cash Flows to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for each of the periods indicated.
