1. Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of the Business – MPLX LP is a diversified, large-cap master limited partnership formed by Marathon Petroleum Corporation that owns and operates midstream energy infrastructure and logistics assets, and provides fuels distribution services. References in this report to “MPLX LP,” “MPLX,” “the Partnership,” “we,” “ours,” “us,” or like terms refer to MPLX LP and its subsidiaries. References to “MPC” refer collectively to Marathon Petroleum Corporation as our sponsor and its subsidiaries, other than the Partnership. We are engaged in the transportation, storage and distribution of crude oil and refined petroleum products; the gathering, processing and transportation of natural gas; and the gathering, transportation, fractionation, storage and marketing of NGLs. MPLX’s principal executive office is located in Findlay, Ohio.

MPLX’s business consists of two segments based on the nature of services it offers: Logistics and Storage (“L&S”), which relates primarily to crude oil and refined petroleum products; and Gathering and Processing (“G&P”), which relates primarily to natural gas and NGLs. See Note 9 for additional information regarding the operations and results of these segments.

On July 30, 2019, MPLX completed its acquisition by merger (the “Merger”) of Andeavor Logistics LP (“ANDX”). At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units. See Note 3 for additional information regarding the Merger.

Basis of PresentationThe accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of MPLX’s management, these statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. These interim consolidated financial statements, including the notes, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim period financial statements and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

MPLX’s consolidated financial statements include all majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. For non-wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries, the interests owned by third parties have been recorded as “Noncontrolling interests” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Intercompany investments, accounts and transactions have been eliminated. MPLX’s investments in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for using the equity method. MPLX’s investments in a VIE in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are also accounted for using the equity method.

In preparing the Consolidated Statements of Equity, net income attributable to MPLX LP is allocated to Series A preferred unitholders based on a fixed distribution schedule. Distributions, although earned, are not accrued until declared. The allocation of net income attributable to MPLX LP for purposes of calculating net income per limited partner unit is described in Note 6.

2. Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted

ASU 2016-02, Leases

We adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), as of January 1, 2019, electing the transition method which permits entities to adopt the provisions of the standard using the modified retrospective approach without adjusting comparative periods. We also elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to grandfather the historical accounting conclusions until a reassessment event is present. We have also elected the practical expedient to not recognize short-term leases on the balance sheet, the practical expedient related to right of way permits and land easements which allows us to carry forward our accounting treatment for those existing agreements, and the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for the majority of our underlying classes of assets except for our third-party contractor service and equipment agreements and boat and barge equipment agreements in which we are the lessee. We did not elect the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for arrangements in which we are

Table of Contents

the lessor. In instances where the practical expedient was not elected, lease and non-lease consideration is allocated based on relative standalone selling price.

Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset in which we obtain substantially all of the economic benefits and the right to direct the use of the asset during the lease term. Lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with a lease term of greater than one year. Payments that are not fixed at the commencement of the lease are considered variable and are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liability calculations. In the measurement of our ROU assets and lease liabilities, the fixed lease payments in the agreement are discounted using a secured incremental borrowing rate for a term similar to the duration of the lease, as our leases do not provide implicit rates. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of ROU assets and lease liabilities of approximately $505 million and $502 million, respectively, as of January 1, 2019. The standard did not materially impact our consolidated statements of income, cash flows or equity as a result of adoption.
As a lessor under ASC 842, MPLX may be required to re-classify existing operating leases to sales-type leases upon modification and related reassessment of the leases. If such a modification were to occur, it may result in the de-recognition of existing assets and recognition of a receivable in the amount of the present value of fixed payments expected to be received by MPLX under the lease. MPLX will evaluate the impacts of lease reassessments as modifications occur.

We also adopted the following standard during the first six months of 2019, which did not have a material impact to our financial statements or financial statement disclosures:
ASU
 
Effective Date
2017-12
Derivatives and Hedging - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities
January 1, 2019


Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
In January 2017, the FASB issued an ASU which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the new guidance, the recognition of an impairment charge is calculated based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, which could be different from the amount calculated under the current method using the implied fair value of the goodwill; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The guidance should be applied on a prospective basis, and is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.
ASU 2016-13, Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
In June 2016, the FASB issued an ASU related to the accounting for credit losses on certain financial instruments. The guidance requires that for most financial assets, losses be based on an expected loss approach which includes estimates of losses over the life of exposure that considers historical, current and forecasted information. Expanded disclosures related to the methods used to estimate the losses as well as a specific disaggregation of balances for financial assets are also required. The change is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect application of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Acquisitions

Acquisition of Andeavor Logistics LP

As previously disclosed, on May 7, 2019, ANDX, Tesoro Logistics GP, LLC, then the general partner of ANDX (“TLGP”), MPLX, MPLX GP LLC, the general partner of MPLX (“MPLX GP”), and MPLX MAX LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) that provided for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ANDX. On July 30, 2019, the Merger was completed, and ANDX survived the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX. At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by

Table of Contents

ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units.

The assets of ANDX consist of a network of owned and operated crude oil, refined product and natural gas pipelines; terminals with crude oil and refined products storage capacity; rail loading and offloading facilities; marine terminals including storage; bulk petroleum distribution facilities; a trucking fleet; and natural gas processing and fractionation complexes. The assets are located in the western and inland regions of the United States.

MPC accounted for its October 1, 2018 acquisition of Andeavor (including acquiring control of ANDX), using the acquisition method of accounting which required Andeavor assets and liabilities to be recorded by MPC at the acquisition date fair value. As a result of MPC’s relationship with both MPLX and ANDX, the Merger will be treated as a common control transaction, which requires the recognition of assets and liabilities acquired using MPC’s historical basis as of October 1, 2018. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed shown below have been pushed down from MPC and are considered preliminary as MPC has not yet completed a final determination of the respective fair values related to its acquisition of Andeavor. The preliminary purchase consideration allocation may change based on additional information received. Adjustments to this allocation can be made through the end of MPC’s measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the Andeavor acquisition date. Values shown below have not been incorporated into the results of MPLX as of June 30, 2019 as the Merger was not closed until July 30, 2019.

Details of our valuation methodology and significant inputs for fair value measurements are included by asset class below. The fair value measurements for equity method investments, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and long-term debt are based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and, therefore, represent Level 3 measurements.

Goodwill
The preliminary purchase consideration allocation resulted in the recognition of $7 billion in goodwill which will be split between the L&S and G&P segments once assigned to the relevant reporting units.

Inventory
The fair value of inventory was recorded at cost as of October 1, 2018 as these items are related to spare parts, materials and supplies and approximate fair value.


11


Table of Contents

Equity Method Investments
The fair value of the equity method investments was determined based on applying income and market approaches. The income approach relied on the discounted cash flow method and the market approach relied on a market multiple approach considering historical and projected financial results. Discount rates for the discounted cash flow models were based on capital structures for similar market participants and included various risk premiums that account for risks associated with the specific investments.

Property, Plant and Equipment
The preliminary fair value of property, plant and equipment is $7 billion, which is based primarily on the cost approach. Key assumptions in the cost approach include determining the replacement cost by evaluating recent purchases of similar assets or published data, and adjusting replacement cost for economic and functional obsolescence, location, normal useful lives, and capacity (if applicable).

Acquired Intangible Assets
The preliminary fair value of the acquired identifiable intangible assets is $960 million, which represents the value of various customer contracts and relationships and other intangible assets. The preliminary fair value of customer contracts and relationships is $890 million, which was valued by applying the multi-period excess earnings method, which is an income approach. Key assumptions in the income approach include the underlying contract cash flow estimates, remaining contract term, probability of renewal, growth rates and discount rates. The intangible assets are all finite lived and will be amortized over 2 to 10 years.

Debt
The fair value of the ANDX unsecured notes was measured using a market approach, based upon the average of quotes for the acquired debt from major financial institutions and a third-party valuation service. Additionally, approximately $1.1 billion of borrowings under revolving credit agreements approximate fair value.

Acquisition Costs
We recognized $4 million in acquisition costs during the period which are reflected in general and administrative expenses.

The pro forma information includes adjustments to align accounting policies which include adjustments for capitalization of assets and treatment of turnaround and major maintenance costs. The pro forma information also includes adjustments related to: reversing transactions between MPLX and ANDX which previously would have been recorded as transactions between related parties; basis differences on equity method investments as a result of recognition of MPC’s investments in ANDX’s equity method investments; depreciation and amortization expense to reflect the increased fair value of property, plant and equipment and increased amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets; as well as adjustments to interest expense for the amortization of fair value adjustments over the remaining term of ANDX’s outstanding debt, reversal of ANDX’s historical amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discounts and to adjust for the difference in the weighted average interest rate between MPLX’s revolving credit facility and the ANDX revolving credit facilities.

Mt. Airy Terminal

On September 26, 2018, MPLX acquired an eastern U.S. Gulf Coast export terminal (the “Mt. Airy Terminal”) from Pin Oak Holdings, LLC for total consideration of $451 million. At the time of the acquisition, the terminal included tanks with 4 million barrels of third-party leased storage capacity and a dock with 120 mbpd of capacity. The Mt. Airy Terminal is located on the Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, is in close proximity to several Gulf Coast refineries including MPC’s Garyville Refinery and is near numerous rail lines and pipelines. The Mt. Airy Terminal is accounted for within the L&S segment. In the first quarter of 2019, an adjustment to the initial purchase price was made for approximately $5 million

Table of Contents

related to the final settlement of the acquisition, which was paid in the first six months of 2019 as shown on the statement of cash flow. This reduced the total purchase price to $446 million and resulted in $336 million of property, plant and equipment, $121 million of goodwill and the remainder being attributable to net liabilities assumed.

Goodwill represents the significant growth potential of the terminal due to the multiple pipelines and rail lines which cross the property, the terminal’s position as an aggregation point for liquids growth in the region for both ocean-going vessels and inland barges, the proximity of the terminal to MPC’s Garyville refinery and other refineries in the region as well as the opportunity to construct an additional dock at the site.

Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution Acquisition

On February 1, 2018, MPC and MPLX closed on an agreement for the dropdown of refining logistics assets and fuels distribution services to MPLX. MPC contributed these assets and services in exchange for $4.1 billion in cash and a fixed number of MPLX common units and general partner units of 111,611,111 and 2,277,778, respectively. The fair value of the common and general partner units issued as of the acquisition date was $4.3 billion based on the closing common unit price as of February 1, 2018, as recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Equity, for a total purchase price of $8.4 billion. The equity issued consisted of: (i) 85,610,278 common units to MPLX GP, (ii) 18,176,666 common units to MPLX Logistics Holdings LLC and (iii) 7,824,167 common units to MPLX Holdings Inc. MPLX also issued 2,277,778 general partner units to MPLX GP in order to maintain its two percent general partner interest (“GP Interest”) in MPLX. MPC agreed to waive approximately one-third of the first quarter 2018 distributions on the common units issued in connection with this transaction. As a result of this waiver, MPC did not receive $23.7 million of the distributions that would have otherwise accrued on such common units with respect to the first quarter of 2018. Immediately following this transaction, the GP Interest was converted into a non-economic general partner interest.

MPLX recorded this transaction on a historical basis as required for transactions between entities under common control. No effect was given to the prior periods as these entities were not considered businesses prior to the February 1, 2018 dropdown. In connection with the dropdown, approximately $830 million of net property, plant and equipment was recorded in addition to $85 million and $130 million of goodwill allocated to MPLX Refining Logistics LLC (“Refining Logistics”) and MPLX Fuels Distribution LLC (“Fuels Distribution”), respectively. Both the refining logistics assets and the fuels distribution services are accounted for within the L&S segment.

As of the transaction date, the Refining Logistics assets included 619 tanks with approximately 56 million barrels of storage capacity (crude, finished products and intermediates), 32 rail and truck racks, 18 docks, and gasoline blenders. These assets generate revenue through storage services agreements with MPC. Refining Logistics provides certain services to MPC related to the receipt, storage, throughput, custody and delivery of petroleum products in and through certain storage and logistical facilities and assets associated with MPC’s refineries.

Fuels Distribution, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLXT, generates revenue through a fuels distribution services agreement with MPC. Fuels Distribution is structured to provide a broad range of scheduling and marketing services as MPC’s agent.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of MPLX’s equity method investments exceeded the underlying net assets of its investees by approximately $1 billion for the G&P segment. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of MPLX’s equity method investments in the L&S segment exceeded the underlying net assets of its investees by $113 million and $114 million, respectively. This basis difference is being amortized into net income over the remaining estimated useful lives of the underlying assets, except for $459 million and $39 million of excess related to goodwill for the G&P and L&S segments, respectively.

MarkWest Utica EMG

MarkWest Utica EMG, L.L.C. (“MarkWest Utica EMG”) is deemed to be a VIE. Neither MPLX nor any of its subsidiaries is deemed to be the primary beneficiary due to EMG Utica, L.L.C.’s voting rights on significant matters. MPLX’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with MarkWest Utica EMG includes its equity investment, any additional capital contribution commitments and any operating expenses incurred by the subsidiary operator in excess of its compensation received for the performance of the operating services. MarkWest Utica EMG holds an investment in its subsidiary, Ohio Gathering Company, L.L.C. (“Ohio Gathering”), which does not appear elsewhere in the tables above. The investment was $788 million and $750 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. MPLX did not provide any financial support to MarkWest Utica EMG that it was not contractually obligated to provide during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Ohio Gathering

Ohio Gathering is a subsidiary of MarkWest Utica EMG and is engaged in providing natural gas gathering services in the Utica Shale in eastern Ohio. Ohio Gathering is a joint venture between MarkWest Utica EMG and Summit Midstream Partners, LLC. As of June 30, 2019, MPLX has an approximate 34 percent indirect ownership interest in Ohio Gathering. As Ohio Gathering is a subsidiary of MarkWest Utica EMG, which is accounted for as an equity method investment, MPLX reports its portion of Ohio Gathering’s net assets as a component of its investment in MarkWest Utica EMG.

Sherwood Midstream

Sherwood Midstream LLC (“Sherwood Midstream”) is deemed to be a VIE. Neither MPLX nor any of its subsidiaries is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of Sherwood Midstream due to Antero Midstream Partners, LP’s voting rights on significant matters. MPLX’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with Sherwood Midstream includes its equity investment, any additional capital contribution commitments and any operating expenses incurred by the subsidiary operator in excess of its compensation received for the performance of the operating services. MPLX did not provide any financial support to Sherwood Midstream that it was not contractually obligated to provide during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Sherwood Midstream also has an investment in MarkWest Ohio Fractionation Company, L.L.C. (“Ohio Fractionation”), which is a VIE, that it accounts for as an equity method investment as Sherwood Midstream does not control Ohio Fractionation. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Sherwood Midstream acquired the right to fractionation revenue and the obligation to pay expenses related to 20 mbpd of capacity in the Hopedale 4 fractionator; this transaction is shown as “Contributions from noncontrolling interests” on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. MarkWest Liberty Midstream & Resources, L.L.C (“MarkWest Liberty Midstream”), a wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiary, has been deemed to be the primary beneficiary of Ohio Fractionation because it has control over the decisions that could significantly impact its financial performance, and as a result, consolidates Ohio Fractionation. The creditors of Ohio Fractionation do not have recourse to MPLX LP’s general credit through guarantees or other financial arrangements. The assets of Ohio Fractionation are the property of Ohio Fractionation and cannot be used to satisfy the obligations of MPLX LP. Sherwood Midstream’s interests are reflected in “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests” on the Consolidated Statements of Income and “Noncontrolling interests” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Sherwood Midstream Holdings

MPLX accounts for Sherwood Midstream Holdings LLC (“Sherwood Midstream Holdings”), which is a VIE, as an equity method investment as Sherwood Midstream is considered to be the general partner and controls all decisions. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, MarkWest Liberty Midstream sold to Sherwood Midstream six percent of its equity ownership in Sherwood Midstream Holdings for $15 million. MPLX’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with Sherwood Midstream Holdings includes its equity investment, any additional capital contribution commitments and any operating expenses incurred by the subsidiary operator in excess of its compensation received for the performance of the operating services. MPLX did not provide any financial support to Sherwood Midstream Holdings that it was not contractually obligated to provide during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Sherwood Midstream has been deemed the primary beneficiary of Sherwood Midstream Holdings due to its controlling financial interest through its authority to manage the joint venture. As a result, Sherwood Midstream consolidates Sherwood Midstream Holdings. Therefore, MPLX also reports its portion of Sherwood Midstream Holdings’ net assets as a component of its investment in Sherwood Midstream. As of June 30, 2019, MPLX has a 22.2 percent indirect ownership interest in Sherwood Midstream Holdings through Sherwood Midstream.

(1) There were additional product sales to MPC that net to zero within the consolidated financial statements as the transactions are recorded net due to the terms of the agreements under which such product was sold. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, these sales totaled $118 million and $204 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, these sales totaled $112 million and $191 million, respectively.

Related Party Expenses

MPC provides executive management services and certain general and administrative services to MPLX under the terms of an omnibus agreement (“Omnibus charges”). Omnibus charges included in “Rental cost of sales - related parties” primarily relate to services that support MPLX’s rental operations and maintenance of assets available for rent. Omnibus charges included in “Purchases - related parties” primarily relate to services that support MPLX’s operations and maintenance activities, as well as compensation expenses. Omnibus charges included in “General and administrative expenses” primarily relate to services that support MPLX’s executive management, accounting and human resources activities. MPLX LP also obtains employee services from MPC under employee services agreements (“ESA charges”). ESA charges for personnel directly involved in or supporting operations and maintenance activities related to rental services are classified as “Rental cost of sales - related parties.” ESA charges for personnel directly involved in or supporting operations and maintenance activities related to other services are classified as “Purchases - related parties.” ESA charges for personnel involved in executive management, accounting and

human resources activities are classified as “General and administrative expenses.” In addition to these agreements, MPLX purchases products from MPC, makes payments to MPC in its capacity as general contractor to MPLX, and has certain rent and lease agreements with MPC.

Expenses incurred from MPC under the omnibus and employee services agreements as well as other purchases from MPC included on the Consolidated Statements of Income are as follows:

Some charges incurred under the omnibus and ESA agreements are related to engineering services and are associated with assets under construction. These charges are added to “Property, plant and equipment, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, these charges totaled $38 million and $79 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, these charges totaled $41 million and $63 million, respectively.

Related Party Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities with related parties appearing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are detailed in the table below. This table identifies the various components of related party assets and liabilities, including those associated with leases (see Note 19 for additional information) and deferred revenue on minimum volume commitments. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018, MPC did not ship its minimum committed volumes on certain pipelines. Under MPLX’s pipeline transportation services agreements, if MPC fails to transport its minimum throughput volumes during any quarter, then MPC will pay MPLX a deficiency payment equal to the volume of the deficiency multiplied by the tariff rate then in effect. The deficiency amounts are recorded as “Current liabilities - related parties.” MPC may then apply the amount of any such deficiency payments as a credit for volumes transported on the applicable pipeline in excess of its minimum volume commitment in future periods under the terms of the applicable transportation services agreement. MPLX recognizes related party revenues for the deficiency payments when credits are used for volumes transported in excess of minimum quarterly volume commitments, where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods or upon the expiration of the credits. The use or expiration of the credits is a decrease in “Current liabilities - related parties.” In addition, capital projects MPLX is undertaking at the request of MPC are reimbursed in cash and recognized in income over the remaining term of the applicable agreements.

Other Related Party Transactions

From time to time, MPLX may also sell to or purchase from related parties, assets and inventory at the lesser of average unit cost or net realizable value. Sales to related parties for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were less than $1 million and $3 million, respectively. Purchases from related parties for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were less than $1 million and $1 million, respectively.

6. Net Income/(Loss) Per Limited Partner Unit

Net income/(loss) per unit applicable to common units is computed by dividing net income/(loss) attributable to MPLX LP less income/(loss) allocated to participating securities by the weighted average number of common units outstanding. Additional MPLX common units and MPLX Series B preferred units were issued on July 30, 2019 as a result of the merger with ANDX as discussed in Note 3. Distributions declared on these newly-issued common and Series B preferred units are a reduction to income available to MPLX common unit holders due to their participation in distributions of second quarter income. The classes of participating securities include common units, certain equity-based compensation awards, Series A preferred units and Series B preferred units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and common units, certain equity-based compensation awards and Series A preferred units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, MPLX had dilutive potential common units consisting of certain equity-based compensation awards. Potential common units omitted from the diluted earnings per unit calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were less than 1 million.

Cash distributions In accordance with the MPLX partnership agreement, on July 22, 2019, MPLX declared a quarterly cash distribution, based on the results of the second quarter of 2019, totaling $692 million, or $0.6675 per common unit, which

21


Table of Contents

includes common units issued on July 30, 2019 as a result of the Merger. This rate will also be received by Series A preferred unitholders. These distributions will be paid on August 14, 2019 to common unitholders of record on August 5, 2019.

Additionally, as a result of the Merger, 600,000 ANDX preferred units were converted into 600,000 preferred units of MPLX (the “Series B preferred units”). Series B preferred unitholders are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the board, a fixed distribution of $68.75 per unit, per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15. Accordingly a cash distribution payment totaling $21 million will be paid to Series B unitholders on August 15, 2019.

Quarterly distributions for 2019 and 2018 are summarized below:

The allocation of total quarterly cash distributions to limited and preferred unitholders is as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. MPLX’s distributions are declared subsequent to quarter end; therefore, the following table represents total cash distributions applicable to the period in which the distributions were earned, except for the Series B preferred unit distributions which were earned throughout 2019, prior to the merger being completed.

The distribution on common units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 includes the impact of the issuance of approximately 102 million units issued to public unitholders and approximately 161 million units issued to MPC in connection with MPLX's acquisition of ANDX on July 30, 2019. Had the transaction been completed subsequent to our distribution record date, distributions would have been $163 million lower for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. This is net of $12.5 million of waived distributions with respect to units held by MPC and its affiliates. The $12.5 million quarterly distribution waiver will continue through 2019. Total distributions excluding the newly issued common units associated with the merger and the Series B preferred units were $550 million and $1,093 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

8. Redeemable Series A Preferred Units

Private Placement of Series A Preferred Units On May 13, 2016, MPLX LP completed the private placement of approximately 30.8 million 6.5 percent Series A Convertible preferred units for a cash purchase price of $32.50 per unit. The aggregate net proceeds of approximately $984 million from the sale of the preferred units were used for capital expenditures, repayment of debt and general business purposes. The Series A preferred units rank senior to all common units and pari passu with all Series B preferred units with respect to distributions and rights upon liquidation. The holders of the Series A preferred units received cumulative quarterly distributions equal to $0.528125 per unit for each quarter prior to the second quarter of 2018. Beginning with the second quarter of 2018, the holders of the Series A preferred units are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the board, a quarterly distribution equal to the greater of $0.528125 per unit or the amount of distributions they would have received on an as converted basis. On July 22, 2019, MPLX declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.6675 per common unit representing the distribution of income earned during the second quarter of 2019. The Series A preferred units will receive the common unit rate in lieu of the lower $0.528125 base amount.

The holders may convert their Series A preferred units into common units at any time after the third anniversary of the issuance date or prior to liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, in full or in part, subject to minimum conversion amounts and conditions. After the fourth anniversary of the issuance date, MPLX may convert the Series A preferred units into common units at any time, in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum conversion amounts and conditions, if the closing price of MPLX LP common units is greater than $48.75 for the 20-day trading period immediately preceding the conversion notice date. The conversion rate for the Series A preferred units shall be the quotient of (a) the sum of (i) $32.50, plus (ii) any unpaid cash distributions on the applicable preferred unit, divided by (b) $32.50, subject to adjustment for unit distributions, unit splits and similar transactions. The holders of the Series A preferred units are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the common unitholders and have certain other class voting rights with respect to any amendment to the MPLX partnership agreement that would adversely affect any rights, preferences or privileges of the preferred units. In addition, upon certain events involving a change of control, the holders of preferred units may elect, among other potential elections, to convert their Series A preferred units to common units at the then change of control conversion rate.

The Series A preferred units are considered redeemable securities under GAAP due to the existence of redemption provisions upon a deemed liquidation event which is outside MPLX’s control. Therefore, they are presented as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Series A preferred units have been recorded at their issuance date fair value, net of issuance costs. Income allocations increase the carrying value and declared distributions decrease the carrying value of the Series A preferred units. As the Series A preferred units are not currently redeemable and not probable of becoming redeemable, adjustment to the initial carrying amount is not necessary and would only be required if it becomes probable that the Series A preferred units would become redeemable.

9. Segment Information

MPLX’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer (“CEO”) of its general partner. The CEO reviews MPLX’s discrete financial information, makes operating decisions, assesses financial performance and allocates resources on a type of service basis. MPLX has two reportable segments: L&S and G&P. Each of these segments is organized and managed based upon the nature of the products and services it offers.

L&S – transports, stores, distributes and markets crude oil and refined petroleum products.
G&P – gathers, processes and transports natural gas; and gathers, transports, fractionates, stores and markets NGLs.
Our CEO evaluates the performance of our segments using Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Amounts included in net income and excluded from Segment Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) provision/(benefit) for income taxes; (iii) amortization of deferred financing costs; (iv) extinguishment of debt; (v) non-cash equity-based compensation; (vi) impairment expense; (vii) net interest and other financial costs; (viii) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (ix) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (x) unrealized derivative gains/(losses); (xi) acquisition costs; (xii) noncontrolling interest; and (xiii) other adjustments as deemed necessary. These items are either: (i) believed to be non-recurring in nature; (ii) not believed to be allocable or controlled by the segment; or (iii) are not tied to the operational performance of the segment.

(2) MPLX makes a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is outstanding, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss is reversed and the realized gain or loss of the contract is recorded.

12. Fair Value Measurements

Fair Values – Recurring

Fair value measurements and disclosures relate primarily to MPLX’s derivative positions as discussed in Note 13. The following table presents the financial instruments carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 by fair value hierarchy level. MPLX has elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty.

Level 3 instruments include all NGL transactions and embedded derivatives in commodity contracts. The embedded derivative liability relates to a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement. The fair value calculation for these Level 3 instruments used significant unobservable inputs including: (1) NGL prices interpolated and extrapolated due to inactive markets ranging from $0.46 to $1.14 and (2) the probability of renewal of 92 percent for the first five-year term and 82 percent for the second five-year term of the gas purchase commitment and related keep-whole processing agreement. Increases or decreases in the fractionation spread result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the embedded derivative liability, respectively. An increase in the probability of renewal would result in an increase in the fair value of the related embedded derivative liability. Beyond the embedded derivative discussed above, we had no outstanding commodity contracts as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

Fair Values – Reported

MPLX’s primary financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, receivables, receivables from related parties, accounts payable, payables to related parties and long-term debt. MPLX’s fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including (1) the duration of the instruments, (2) MPC’s investment-grade credit rating and (3) the historical incurrence of and expected future insignificance of bad debt expense, which includes an evaluation of counterparty credit risk. MPLX believes the carrying values of its current assets and liabilities approximate fair value. The recorded value of the amounts outstanding under the bank revolving credit facility, if any, approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate that approximates current market rates. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value, based on available market information (see Note 13).

The fair value of MPLX’s long-term debt is estimated based on recent market non-binding indicative quotes. The fair value of the SMR liability is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach based on the contractual cash flows and MPLX’s unsecured borrowing rate. The long-term debt and SMR liability fair values are considered Level 3 measurements. The following table summarizes the fair value and carrying value of the long-term debt, excluding finance leases, and SMR liability:

13. Derivative Financial Instruments

As of June 30, 2019, MPLX had no outstanding commodity contracts beyond the embedded derivative discussed below.

Embedded Derivative - MPLX has a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement with a producer customer in the Southern Appalachian region expiring in December 2022. The customer has the unilateral option to extend the agreement for two consecutive five-year terms through December 2032. For accounting purposes, the natural gas purchase commitment and the term extending options have been aggregated into a single compound embedded derivative. The probability of the customer exercising its options is determined based on assumptions about the customer’s potential business strategy decision points that may exist at the time they would elect whether to renew the contract. The changes in fair value of this compound embedded derivative are based on the difference between the contractual and index pricing, the probability of the producer customer exercising its option to extend and the estimated favorability of these contracts compared to current market conditions. The changes in fair value are recorded in earnings through “Purchased product costs” on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the estimated fair value of this contract was a liability of $65 million and $61 million, respectively.

Certain derivative positions are subject to master netting agreements, therefore, MPLX has elected to offset derivative assets and liabilities that are legally permissible to be offset. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no derivative assets or liabilities that were offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact of MPLX’s derivative instruments on its Consolidated Balance Sheets is summarized below:

There were no material changes to MPLX’s policy regarding the accounting for Level 2 and Level 3 instruments as previously disclosed in MPLX’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. MPLX does not designate any of its commodity derivative positions as hedges for accounting purposes.

Credit Agreement

MPLX has a $2.25 billion five-year bank revolving credit facility that expires in July 2022 (the “MPLX Credit Agreement”). During the six months ended June 30, 2019, MPLX borrowed $2,275 million under the MPLX Credit Agreement, at an average interest rate of 3.802 percent, and repaid $1,660 million. At June 30, 2019, MPLX had $615 million outstanding borrowings and $3 million letters of credit outstanding under the facility, resulting in total availability of $1.632 billion, or 72.5 percent of the borrowing capacity.

Senior Notes

On December 10, 2018, MPLX redeemed all $750 million of its 5.5 percent senior notes due February 15, 2023, $40 million of which was issued by the MarkWest subsidiary. These notes were redeemed at 101.833 percent of the principal amount, which resulted in a payment of $14 million related to the note premium and the immediate recognition of $46 million of unamortized debt issuance costs.

On November 15, 2018, MPLX issued $2.25 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes in a public offering, consisting of $750 million aggregate principal amount of 4.8 percent unsecured senior notes due February 2029 and $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.5 percent unsecured senior notes due February 2049 (collectively, the “November 2018 New Senior Notes”). The November 2018 New Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 99.432 percent and 98.031 percent of par, respectively. The proceeds were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the MPLX Credit Agreement and the MPC Loan Agreement and to redeem all $750 million of its 5.5 percent senior notes due February 2023, as well as for general business purposes. Interest on each series of the November 2018 New Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on February 15, 2019.

On February 8, 2018, MPLX issued $5.5 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes in a public offering, consisting of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.375 percent unsecured senior notes due March 2023, $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.0 percent unsecured senior notes due March 2028, $1.75 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.5 percent unsecured senior notes due April 2038, $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.7 percent unsecured senior notes due April 2048, and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.9 percent unsecured senior notes due April 2058 (collectively, the “February 2018 New Senior Notes”). The February 2018 New Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 99.931 percent, 99.551 percent, 98.811 percent, 99.348 percent, and 99.289 percent of par, respectively. Also on February 8, 2018, $4.1 billion of the net proceeds were used to repay a 364-day term loan facility, which was drawn on February 1, 2018 to fund the cash portion of the dropdown consideration for Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution. The remaining proceeds were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the MPLX Credit Agreement and the MPC Loan Agreement, as well as for general business purposes. Interest on each series of notes due in 2023 and 2028 is payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 15, 2018. Interest on each series of notes due in 2038, 2048 and 2058 is payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on October 15, 2018.

(1) G&P “Product sales” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 includes approximately $2 million and $1 million of revenue related to derivative gains and losses and mark-to-market adjustments, respectively. There were no adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
(2) Non-ASC 606 Revenue includes rental income, income from equity method investments, derivative gains and losses, mark-to-market adjustments, and other income.

Contract Balances

Contract assets typically relate to aid in construction agreements where the revenue recognized and MPLX’s rights to consideration for work completed exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract assets are generally classified as current and included in “Other current assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities, which we refer to as “Deferred revenue” and “Long-term deferred revenue,” typically relate to advance payments for aid in construction agreements and deferred customer credits associated with makeup rights and minimum volume commitments. Related to minimum volume commitments, breakage is estimated and recognized into service revenue in instances where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods. We classify contract liabilities as current or long-term based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue.

“Receivables, net” primarily relate to our commodity sales. Portions of the “Receivables, net” balance are attributed to the sale of commodity product controlled by MPLX prior to sale while a significant portion of the balance relates to the sale of commodity product on behalf of our producer customers. Both types of transactions are commingled and excluded from the table below. MPLX remits the net sales price back to our producer customers upon completion of the sale. Each period end, certain amounts within accounts payable relate to our payments to producer customers. Such amounts are not deemed material at period end as a result of when we settle with each producer.

The table below reflects the changes in our contract balances for the period ended June 30, 2019:

Performance Units – MPLX grants performance units to certain officers of the general partner and certain eligible MPC officers who make significant contributions to its business. These performance units pay out 75 percent in cash and 25 percent in MPLX LP common units and often contain both market and performance conditions based on various metrics. Market conditions are valued using a Monte Carlo valuation while performance conditions are reevaluated periodically and valued at the compensation cost associated with the performance outcome deemed most probable. 

The performance units granted in 2019 are hybrid awards having a three-year performance period of January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2021. The payout of the award is dependent on two independent conditions, each constituting 50 percent of the overall target units granted. The awards have a performance condition based on MPLX LP’s distributable cash flow, and a market condition based on MPLX LP’s total unitholder return. The market condition was valued using a Monte Carlo valuation, resulting in a grant date fair value of $.68 per unit for the 2019 equity-classified performance units. Grant date fair value of the performance condition is based on potential payouts per unit of up to $2.00 per unit. Compensation cost associated with the

34




performance condition is based on the grant date fair value of the payout deemed most probable to occur and is adjusted as the expectation for payout changes.

During the first quarter of 2018, a performance award was granted; however, a grant date could not be established based on the nature of the award terms. Given that a grant date cannot be established, no expense or units have been recorded. When a grant date is established, the fair value of the award will be recognized over the remaining performance period.

19. Leases

For further information regarding the adoption of ASC 842, including the method of adoption and practical expedients elected, see Note 2.

Lessee

We lease a wide variety of facilities and equipment under leases from third parties, including land and building space, office and field equipment, storage facilities and transportation equipment, while our related party leases primarily relate to ground leases associated with our refining logistics assets. Our remaining lease terms range from less than one year to 60 years. Some long-term leases include renewal options ranging from one to 50 years and, in certain leases, also include purchase options. Renewal options and termination options were not included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities since it was determined they were not reasonably certain to be exercised.

Under ASC 842, the components of lease costs were as follows:

Lessor

Based on the terms of fee-based transportation and storage services agreements with MPC as well as certain natural gas gathering, transportation and processing agreements, MPLX is considered to be the lessor under several operating lease arrangements in accordance with GAAP. The agreements with MPC have remaining terms ranging from less than one year to 12 years with renewal options ranging from zero to 10 years. MPLX’s primary natural gas lease operations relate to a natural gas gathering agreement in the Marcellus Shale for which it earns a fixed-fee for providing gathering services to a single producer using a dedicated gathering system. As the gathering system is expanded, the fixed-fee charged to the producer is adjusted to include the additional gathering assets in the lease. The primary term of the natural gas gathering arrangement expires in 2038 and will continue thereafter on a year-to-year basis until terminated by either party. Other significant natural gas implicit leases relate to a natural gas processing agreement in the Marcellus Shale and a natural gas processing agreement in the Southern Appalachia region for which MPLX earns minimum monthly fees for providing processing services to a single producer using a dedicated processing plant. The primary term of these natural gas processing agreements expires during 2023 and 2033, these contracts will continue thereafter on a year-to-year basis until terminated by either party. MPLX’s revenue from its lease arrangements, excluding executory costs, totaled approximately $216 million and $464 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

MPLX did not elect to use the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for lessor arrangements. The tables below represent the portion of the contract allocated to the lease component based on relative standalone selling price. Lessor agreements are currently deemed operating, as we elected the practical expedient to carry forward historical classification conclusions. We will determine the impact of the new standard on these arrangements if and when a modification occurs and they are required to be assessed under ASC 842. MPLX may be required to re-classify existing operating leases to sales-type leases upon modification and related reassessment of the leases.

MPLX’s lease arrangements related to the processing facilities contain contingent rental provisions whereby MPLX receives additional fees if the producer customer exceeds the monthly minimum processed volumes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, MPLX received less than $1 million of contingent lease payments.

20. Commitments and Contingencies

MPLX is the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Some of these matters are discussed below. For matters for which MPLX has not recorded an accrued liability, MPLX is unable to estimate a range of possible losses for the reasons discussed in more detail below. For matters for which MPLX has recorded an accrued liability, MPLX does not consider it reasonably possible that a loss resulting from such matter in excess of any amounts accrued has been incurred that is expected to have a material adverse effect on MPLX’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the ultimate resolution of some of these contingencies could, individually or in the aggregate, be material.

Environmental Matters – MPLX is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for non-compliance.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, accrued liabilities for remediation totaled $16 million and $14 million, respectively. However, it is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation costs that might be incurred or the penalties, if any, which may be imposed. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no balances with MPC for indemnification of environmental costs.

MPLX is involved in environmental enforcement matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome and impact on MPLX LP cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these environmental matters will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Other Lawsuits – MPLX, MarkWest, MarkWest Liberty Midstream, MarkWest Liberty Bluestone, L.L.C., Ohio Fractionation and MarkWest Utica EMG (collectively, the “MPLX Parties”) are parties to various lawsuits with Bilfinger Westcon, Inc. (“Westcon”) that were instituted in 2016 and 2017 in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio. The lawsuits relate to disputes regarding construction work performed by Westcon at the Bluestone, Mobley and Cadiz processing complexes in Pennsylvania,

38


Table of Contents

West Virginia and Ohio, respectively, and the Hopedale fractionation complex in Ohio. With respect to work performed by Westcon at the Mobley and Bluestone processing complexes, one or more of the MPLX Parties have asserted breach of contract, fraud, and with respect to work performed at the Mobley processing complex, MarkWest Liberty Midstream has also asserted negligent misrepresentation claims against Westcon. Westcon has also asserted claims against one or more of the MPLX Parties regarding these construction projects for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, promissory estoppel, fraud and constructive fraud, tortious interference with contractual relations, and civil conspiracy. Collectively, in the several cases, the MPLX Parties sought in excess of $10 million, plus an unspecified amount of punitive damages. Collectively, in the several cases, Westcon sought in excess of $40 million, plus an unspecified amount of punitive damages. On July 31, 2019, Westcon and the MPLX Parties reached an agreement to resolve the disputes among those parties relating to the Bluestone processing complex in Pennsylvania. The settlement will not have a material adverse effect on MPLX’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, MPLX does not consider it reasonably possible that a loss resulting from the remaining lawsuits or other proceedings in excess of any amounts accrued has been incurred that is expected to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In 2003, the State of Illinois brought an action against the Premcor Refining Group, Inc. (“Premcor”) and Apex Refining Company (“Apex”) asserting claims for environmental cleanup related to the refinery owned by these entities in the Hartford/Wood River, Illinois area. In 2006, Premcor and Apex filed third-party complaints against numerous owners and operators of petroleum products facilities in the Hartford/Wood River, Illinois area, including Marathon Pipe Line LLC (“MPL”). These complaints, which have been amended since filing, assert claims of common law nuisance and contribution under the Illinois Contribution Act and other laws for environmental cleanup costs that may be imposed on Premcor and Apex by the State of Illinois. On September 6, 2016, the trial court approved a settlement between Apex and the State of Illinois whereby Apex agreed to settle all claims against it for a $10 million payment. Premcor filed a motion for permissive appeal and requested a stay to the proceeding until the motion is ruled upon. Premcor reached a settlement with the State of Illinois in the second quarter of 2018, which has been objected to by certain third-party defendants, including MPL, and is subject to court approval. Several third-party defendants in the litigation including MPL have asserted cross-claims in contribution against the various third-party defendants. This litigation is currently pending in the Third Judicial Circuit Court, Madison County, Illinois. The trial concerning Premcor’s claims against third-party defendants, including MPL, previously scheduled to commence September 10, 2018, has been postponed and a new trial date has not been set. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, MPLX does not consider it reasonably possible that a loss resulting from such lawsuits or other proceedings in excess of any amounts accrued has been incurred that is expected to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Under the omnibus agreement, MPC will indemnify MPLX for the full cost of any losses should MPL be deemed responsible for any damages in this lawsuit.

MPLX is also a party to a number of other lawsuits and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, MPLX believes the resolution of these other lawsuits and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Guarantees – Over the years, MPLX has sold various assets in the normal course of its business. Certain of the related agreements contain performance and general guarantees, including guarantees regarding inaccuracies in representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, and environmental and general indemnifications that require MPLX to perform upon the occurrence of a triggering event or condition. These guarantees and indemnifications are part of the normal course of selling assets. MPLX is typically not able to calculate the maximum potential amount of future payments that could be made under such contractual provisions because of the variability inherent in the guarantees and indemnities. Most often, the nature of the guarantees and indemnities is such that there is no appropriate method for quantifying the exposure because the underlying triggering event has little or no past experience upon which a reasonable prediction of the outcome can be based.

In connection with our approximate 9 percent indirect interest in a joint venture that owns and operates the Dakota Access Pipeline and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline projects, collectively referred to as the Bakken Pipeline system, we have entered into a Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement whereby MPLX LP, along with the other joint venture owners in the Bakken Pipeline system, have agreed to make equity contributions to the joint venture upon certain events occurring to allow the entities that own and operate the Bakken Pipeline system to satisfy their senior note payment obligations. The senior notes were issued to repay amounts owed by the pipeline companies to fund the cost of construction of Bakken Pipeline system. As of June 30, 2019, our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement were approximately $230 million.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies – At June 30, 2019, MPLX’s contractual commitments to acquire property, plant and equipment totaled $528 million. These commitments were primarily related to plant expansion projects for the

39


Table of Contents

Marcellus and Southwest Operations. In addition, from time to time and in the ordinary course of business, MPLX and its affiliates provide guarantees of MPLX’s subsidiaries payment and performance obligations in the G&P segment. Certain natural gas processing and gathering arrangements require MPLX to construct new natural gas processing plants, natural gas gathering pipelines and NGL pipelines and contain certain fees and charges if specified construction milestones are not achieved for reasons other than force majeure. In certain cases, certain producers may have the right to cancel the processing arrangements if there are significant delays that are not due to force majeure. As of June 30, 2019, management does not believe there are any indications that MPLX will not be able to meet the construction milestones, that force majeure does not apply or that such fees and charges will otherwise be triggered.

21. Subsequent Events

As previously disclosed, on May 7, 2019, ANDX, TLGP, MPLX, MPLX GP and Merger Sub, entered into a Merger Agreement that provided for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ANDX. On July 30, 2019, the Merger was completed, and ANDX survived the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX. At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units. Also effective July 30, 2019 in connection with the closing of the Merger, MPLX amended and restated its existing $2.25 billion revolving credit facility to increase borrowing capacity to up to $3.5 billion and extend its term to July 30, 2024. ANDX’s revolving credit facilities totaling $2.1 billion in borrowing capacity were terminated upon the closing and repaid with borrowings under the MPLX revolving credit facility. Additionally, on July 31, 2019, MPLX upsized its existing $1.0 billion intercompany loan agreement with MPC to $1.5 billion. See Note 3 for additional information related to this transaction.

MPLX OVERVIEW

We are a diversified, large-cap MLP formed by MPC, that owns and operates midstream energy infrastructure and logistics assets, and provides fuels distribution services. We are engaged in the transportation, storage and distribution of crude oil and refined petroleum products; gathering, processing and transportation of natural gas; and the gathering, transportation, fractionation, storage and marketing of NGLs. Our operations are conducted in our Logistics and Storage and Gathering and Processing segments.

SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL AND OTHER HIGHLIGHTS

Significant financial and other highlights for the three months ended June 30, 2019 are listed below. Refer to Results of Operations and Liquidity and Capital Resources for further details.

L&S Segment Adjusted EBITDA increased approximately $43 million, or 8 percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase is primarily attributable to higher transportation volumes and rates. L&S Segment Adjusted EBITDA was also impacted by increased fees from Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution, increased terminal throughputs and marine vessels as well as the acquisition of the Mt. Airy terminal in the third quarter of 2018.
G&P Segment Adjusted EBITDA increased approximately $10 million, or 3 percent, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The increase can be attributed to additional fees from increased volumes which were partially offset by price impacts and major maintenance downtime at our Javelina facility. The G&P segment realized volume increases during the second quarter of 2019 primarily due to continued growth in the Marcellus and Southwest as volumes continue to increase at recently completed plants/expansions when comparing second quarter 2019 to the same period in 2018. Compared to the second quarter of 2018, processing volumes were up approximately 15 percent, fractionated volumes were up approximately 13 percent and gathering volumes were up approximately 15 percent.

Other Highlights

Announced a final investment decision to move forward with the design and construction of the Whistler Pipeline after having secured sufficient firm transportation agreements with shippers. The majority of available capacity on the planned pipeline has been subscribed and committed by long-term transportation agreements. The Whistler Pipeline is being designed to transport approximately 2 Bcf/d of natural gas through approximately 475 miles of 42-inch pipeline from Waha, Texas, to the Agua Dulce area in South Texas.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we did not issue any common units under our ATM Program. As of June 30, 2019, $1.7 billion of common units remain available for issuance through the ATM Program.
Continued focus on portfolio optimization, which could include asset divestitures

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

As previously disclosed, on May 7, 2019, ANDX, Tesoro Logistics GP, LLC, then the general partner of ANDX (“TLGP”), MPLX, MPLX GP LLC, the general partner of MPLX (“MPLX GP”), and MPLX MAX LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) that provided for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ANDX. On July 30, 2019, the Merger was completed, and ANDX survived the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX. At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units.

The assets of ANDX consist of a network of owned and operated crude oil, refined product and natural gas pipelines; terminals with crude oil and refined products storage capacity; rail loading and offloading facilities; marine terminals including storage;

bulk petroleum distribution facilities; a trucking fleet; and natural gas processing and fractionation complexes. The assets are located in the western and inland regions of the United States.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF. The amount of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF generated is considered by the board of directors of our general partner in approving MPLX’s cash distributions.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) provision/(benefit) for income taxes; (iii) amortization of deferred financing costs; (iv) extinguishment of debt; (v) non-cash equity-based compensation; (vi) impairment expense; (vii) net interest and other financial costs; (viii) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (ix) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (x) unrealized derivative gains/(losses); (xi) acquisition costs; (xii) noncontrolling interest; and (xiii) other adjustments as deemed necessary. We also use DCF, which we define as Adjusted EBITDA adjusted for: (i) deferred revenue impacts; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) maintenance capital expenditures; (iv) equity method investment capital expenditures paid out; and (v) other non-cash items. MPLX makes a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is outstanding, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss is reversed and the realized gain or loss of the contract is recorded.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and DCF are net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF 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 or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and DCF should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because Adjusted EBITDA and DCF may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF to their most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see Results of Operations.

Management also utilizes Segment Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the financial performance of our segments. The use of this measures allows investors to understand how management evaluates financial performance to make operating decisions and allocate resources.

COMPARABILITY OF OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS

Our acquisitions have impacted comparability of our financial results (see Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

(2) For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the L&S and G&P segments made up $1,128 million and $722 million of Adjusted EBITDA attributable to MPLX LP, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the L&S and G&P segments made up $963 million and $664 million of Adjusted EBITDA attributable to MPLX LP, respectively.

Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018

Total revenues and other income increased $51 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This variance was due mainly to increased volumes and prices for pipeline transportation, terminals and marine of approximately $41 million. Equity method investments provided a $23 million increase which was mainly attributable to increased volumes in the Sherwood Midstream, MarEn Bakken Company LLC, Utica EMG, Jefferson Dry Gas and the Explorer Pipeline Company joint ventures. G&P volumes in the Marcellus and Southwest also contributed to the increase in revenues of approximately $74 million. These increases were offset by lower revenues in the G&P segment due to lower prices in the Marcellus, Southern Appalachia and Southwest of approximately $100 million as well as by a decrease in the Delaware Basin Residue, LLC and LOOP LLC joint ventures. The remainder of the increase relates to the Mt. Airy acquisition, the Robinson Butane Cavern and the recognition of revenue related to volume deficiencies.

Purchased product costs decreased $38 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This variance was primarily due to lower prices of $70 million, partially offset by higher volumes of $40 million in the Southwest. In addition, there was a decrease in unrealized losses associated with derivatives which was driven by higher unrealized losses in 2018 as a result of an increasing fractionation spread during the period.

47


Table of Contents


Purchases - related parties increased $16 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This variance is primarily due to increases in employee-related costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $26 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This variance was primarily due to the acquisitions of the Mt. Airy Terminal, additions to in-service property, plant and equipment throughout 2018 and the first six months of 2019 as well as write-downs of equipment no longer in use.

Net interest expense and other financial costs increased $19 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The increase is mainly due to increased interest and financing costs related to the new senior notes.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018

Total revenues and other income increased $277 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This variance was due mainly to a $110 million increase from the acquisition of Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution and increased volumes and prices for pipeline transportation, terminals and marine of $82 million. We also experienced higher revenues from G&P volume growth in the Marcellus and Southwest of approximately $180 million offset by decreased pricing on product sales of approximately $156 million in the Marcellus, Southern Appalachia and Southwest. Equity method investments provided a $32 million increase which was mainly attributable to increased volumes in the MarEn Bakken Company, LLC, Sherwood Midstream, Jefferson Dry Gas, Lincoln Pipeline LLC, and Utica EMG. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the Explorer Pipeline Co., Delaware Basin Residue, LLC, LOCAP LLC and LOOP LLC joint ventures. The remainder of the increase relates to the Mt. Airy acquisition, the Robinson Butane Cavern and the recognition of revenue related to volume deficiencies.

Purchased product costs decreased $31 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to lower prices of $112 million in the Southwest and Southern Appalachia, partially offset by higher volumes of $79 million in the Southwest in addition to a slight increase in unrealized derivative losses.

Purchases-related parties increased $51 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution with a portion also being attributable to increases in employee-related costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $61 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This variance was primarily due to the acquisitions of Refining Logistics and the Mt. Airy Terminal, additions to in-service property, plant and equipment throughout 2018 and the first six months of 2019, as well as write-downs of equipment no longer in use.

General and administrative expenses increased $10 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This variance was primarily due to the acquisition of Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution and other employee-related costs.

Net interest expense and other financial costs increased $60 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The increase is primarily due to increased interest and financing costs related to the new senior notes.

SEGMENT RESULTS

We classify our business in the following reportable segments: L&S and G&P. Segment Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the reportable segments. Amounts included in net income and excluded from Segment Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) provision/(benefit) for income taxes; (iii) amortization of deferred financing costs; (iv) extinguishment of debt; (v) non-cash equity-based compensation; (vi) impairment expense; (vii) net interest and other financial costs; (viii) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (ix) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (x) unrealized derivative gains/(losses); (xi) acquisition costs; (xii) noncontrolling interests; and (xiii) other adjustments as deemed necessary. These items are either: (i) believed to be non-recurring in nature; (ii) not believed to be allocable or controlled by the segment; or (iii) are not tied to the operational performance of the segment.

The tables below present information about Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the reported segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018

Service revenue increased $72 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to $13 million of revenue from increased transportation volumes, partially attributable to the completion of the Ozark expansion; $14 million of revenue from increased transportation prices; $4 million from increased fees from Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution; $7 million from increased terminal throughput; $3 million from additional storage capacity; a $7 million increase from additional marine vessels; and a $27 million increase in service revenue with a corresponding decrease to rental income due to a change in lease classification. These increases were offset by a $2 million decrease in the recognition of revenue related to volume deficiencies.

Rental income decreased $26 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to a $27 million decrease to rental income with a corresponding increase to service revenue due to a change in lease classification and a $7 million decrease due to the acceleration of straight-line rent, both due to a change in lease classification. These decreases were partially offset by an additional $7 million from the acquisition of the Mt. Airy Terminal.

Income from Equity method investments increased $11 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018 due to increased income from MarEn Bakken, Explorer, and Lincoln, primarily due to increased throughput volumes, slightly offset by decreased income from LOCAP primarily due to lower throughput volumes.

Purchases - related parties increased $9 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to increased employee-related charges.

Depreciation and amortization increased $9 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to the acquisition of the Mt. Airy Terminal as well as additions to in-service property, plant and equipment throughout 2018 and the first six months of 2019.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018

Service revenue increased $185 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to an additional $69 million of revenue due to the acquisition of Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution as well as from the annual fee escalation; $50 million of revenue from increased transportation volumes, partially attributable to the completion of the Ozark expansion; $8 million of revenue from increased transportation prices; $6 million of revenue from additional storage capacity; $12 million from increased terminal throughput; $12 million from additional marine vessels, and a $27 million increase due to the reclassification of certain lease revenue from rental income to service revenue.

Rental income increased $28 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to an additional $41 million of revenue from the acquisition of Refining Logistics, $5 million from the completion of a new butane cavern, and $13 million from the acquisition of the Mt. Airy Terminal. These increases were offset by a $27 million decrease due to the reclassification of certain lease revenue from rental income to service revenue and by a $7 million decrease due to the acceleration of straight-line rent, both due to a change in lease classification.

Income from Equity method investments increased 8 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This increase was due to increased income from MarEn Bakken and Lincoln, primarily due to increased throughput volumes, offset by decreased income from LOCAP primarily due to lower throughput volumes and decreased income from Explorer primarily due to an upward adjustment to income in 2018 for a change in corporate tax rate.

Cost of revenues increased $7 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to increased costs to operate new and expanded assets such as the Mt. Airy Terminal, the expanded Ozark pipeline, additional marine vessels, and the completed Robinson Butane cavern, partially offset by lower project spend due to the timing of projects.

Purchases - related parties increased $41 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to the acquisition of Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution as well as increased employee-related costs.

Depreciation and amortization increased $31 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to the acquisitions of Refining Logistics and the Mt. Airy Terminal as well as additions to in-service property, plant and equipment throughout 2018 and the first six months of 2019.

MPC Minimum Volume Commitments

During both the second quarter and first six months of 2019, MPC did not ship its minimum committed volumes on certain of our pipeline systems. As a result, for the first six months, MPC was obligated to make a $14 million deficiency payment, of which $4 million was paid in the second quarter of 2019. We record deficiency payments as “Current liabilities - related parties” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In the second quarter and first six months of 2019, we recognized revenue of $11 million and $27 million related to MPC’s volume deficiency credits, respectively. At June 30, 2019, the cumulative balance of “Current liabilities - related parties” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets related to volume deficiencies was $31 million. The following table presents the future expiration dates of the associated deferred revenue credits as of June 30, 2019:

We will recognize revenue for the deficiency payments in future periods at the earlier of when volumes are transported in excess of the minimum quarterly volume commitments, where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods or upon expiration of the credits. Deficiency payments are included in the determination of DCF in the period in which a deficiency occurs.

(1) MPLX makes a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is outstanding, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss is reversed and the realized gain or loss of the contract is recorded.

Three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to three months ended June 30, 2018

Service revenue increased $37 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to higher fees from higher volumes in the Marcellus and Southwest.

Product related revenue decreased $63 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to lower prices in the Southwest, Southern Appalachia and Marcellus of approximately $100 million offset by volume increases in the Southwest. A portion of the volume increase in the Southwest was offset by a volume decrease due to downtime at the Javelina facility.

Income from equity method investments increased $12 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to growth in the Sherwood Midstream joint venture due to additional plants coming online at the end of 2018, an increase in the Utica EMG joint venture as a result of assets written off in the prior period, and an increase in the Jefferson Dry Gas joint venture as a result of higher dry gas gathering volumes, partially offset by a decrease in the Delaware Basin Residue, LLC joint venture driven by unrealized derivative losses.

Table of Contents

Purchased product costs decreased $38 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to lower prices of $70 million in the Southwest, partially offset by higher volumes of $40 million in the Southwest. In addition, there was a decrease in unrealized losses associated with derivatives which was driven by higher unrealized losses in 2018 as a result of an increasing fractionation spread during the period.

Purchases - related parties increased $7 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to increases in employee-related costs.

Depreciation and amortization increased $17 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to additions to in-service property, plant and equipment throughout 2018 and the first six month of 2019, as well as the write-down of equipment no longer in use.

Six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to six months ended June 30, 2018

Service revenue increased $87 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to higher fees from higher volumes in the Marcellus and Southwest.

Rental income increased $9 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to fees from higher volumes in the Marcellus.

Product related revenue decreased $72 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to lower prices in the Southwest, Southern Appalachia and Marcellus of $156 million offset by volume increases in the Southwest. A portion of the volume increase in the Southwest was offset by a volume decrease due to downtime at the Javelina facility.

Income from equity method investments increased $24 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to growth in the Sherwood Midstream joint venture due to additional plants coming online at the end of 2018, an increase in the Jefferson Dry Gas joint venture as a result of higher dry gas gathering volumes, and an increase in the Utica EMG joint venture as a result of assets written off in the prior period, partially offset by a decrease in the Delaware Basin Residue, LLC joint venture driven by unrealized derivative losses.

Purchased product costs decreased $31 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to lower prices of $112 million in the Southwest and Southern Appalachia, partially offset by higher volumes of $79 million in the Southwest in addition to a slight increase in unrealized derivative losses.

Purchases - related parties increased $10 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to increases in employee-related costs.

Depreciation and amortization increased $30 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. This was primarily due to additions to in-service property, plant and equipment throughout 2018 and the first six months of 2019, as well as the write-down of equipment no longer in use.

SEASONALITY

The volume of crude oil and refined products transported and stored utilizing our assets is directly affected by the level of supply and demand for crude oil and refined products in the markets served directly or indirectly by our assets. Many effects of seasonality on the L&S segment’s revenues will be mitigated through the use of our fee-based transportation and storage services agreements with MPC that include minimum volume commitments.

Our G&P segment can be affected by seasonal fluctuations in the demand for natural gas and NGLs and the related fluctuations in commodity prices caused by various factors such as changes in transportation and travel patterns and variations in weather patterns from year to year. However, we manage the seasonality impact through the execution of our marketing strategy. We have access to up to 800 thousand barrels of propane storage capacity in the Southern Appalachia region provided by an arrangement with a third party which provides us with flexibility to manage the seasonality impact. Overall, our exposure to the seasonal fluctuations in the commodity markets is declining due to our growth in fee-based business.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was $7 million at June 30, 2019 and $76 million at December 31, 2018. The change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was due to the factors discussed below. Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities and financing activities were as follows:

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $162 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the first six months of 2018, primarily due to the increase in net income period over period which was most impacted by the inclusion of Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution for the full six months of 2019 compared to only five months being included in the first six months of 2018. Changes in working capital and increased distributions from equity method investments made up the majority of the remainder of the change.

Net cash used in investing activities increased $221 million in the first six months of 2019 compared to the first six months of 2018, primarily due to increased investments in equity method investments.

Financing activities were a $346 million use of cash in the first six months of 2019 compared to a $336 million use of cash in the first six months of 2018. The use of cash for the first six months of 2019 was primarily due to distributions of $1,038 million to common unitholders, distributions of $40 million to Series A preferred unitholders and distributions of $12 million to noncontrolling interests offset by net borrowings of $44 million on the MPC Loan Agreement, net borrowings of $615 million on the revolving credit facility, and $94 million in contributions from noncontrolling interests.

The MPLX Credit Agreement includes certain representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that we consider usual and customary for an agreement of its type and that could, among other things, limit our ability to pay distributions to our unitholders. The financial covenant requires us to maintain a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt as of the end of each fiscal quarter to Consolidated EBITDA (both as defined in the MPLX Credit Agreement) for the prior four fiscal quarters of no greater than 5.0 to 1.0 (or 5.5 to 1.0 for up to two fiscal quarters following certain acquisitions). Consolidated EBITDA is subject to adjustments for certain acquisitions completed and capital projects undertaken during the relevant period. Other covenants restrict us and/or certain of our subsidiaries from incurring debt, creating liens on our assets and entering into transactions with affiliates. As of June 30, 2019, we were in compliance with this financial covenant with a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of 3.70 to 1.0, as well as other covenants contained in the MPLX Credit Agreement. As disclosed in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the adoption of the lease accounting standards update resulted in the recognition of a significant lease obligation. The MPLX Credit Agreement contains provisions under which the effects of the new accounting standard are not recognized for purposes of financial covenant calculations.

Effective July 30, 2019 in connection with the closing of the Merger, MPLX amended and restated the MPLX Credit Agreement to increase its borrowing capacity to up to $3.5 billion and extend its term to July 30, 2024.

Our intention is to maintain an investment grade credit profile. As of July 30, 2019, the credit ratings on our senior unsecured debt were at or above investment grade level as follows:
Rating Agency
 
Rating
Moody’s
 
Baa2 (stable outlook)
Standard & Poor’s
 
BBB (stable outlook)
Fitch
 
BBB (stable outlook)


56




The ratings reflect the respective views of the rating agencies. Although it is our intention to maintain a credit profile that supports an investment grade rating, there is no assurance that these ratings will continue for any given period of time. The ratings may be revised or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies if, in their respective judgments, circumstances so warrant.

The MPLX Credit Agreement and senior notes do not contain credit rating triggers that would result in the acceleration of interest, principal or other payments solely in the event that our credit ratings are downgraded. However, any downgrades in the credit ratings of our senior unsecured debt ratings to below investment grade ratings would, among other things, increase the applicable interest rates and other fees payable under the MPLX Credit Agreement and may limit our flexibility to obtain future financing.

(1) Outstanding borrowings include $3 million in letters of credit outstanding under this facility.

We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated from operations, borrowings under our loan agreement with MPC and borrowings under our revolving credit facilities. We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to meet our short-term and long-term funding requirements, including working capital requirements, capital expenditure requirements, contractual obligations, and quarterly cash distributions. MPC manages our cash and cash equivalents on our behalf directly with third-party institutions as part of the treasury services that it provides to us under our omnibus agreement. From time to time, we may also consider utilizing other sources of liquidity, including the formation of joint ventures or sales of non-strategic assets.

Equity and Preferred Units Overview

The table below summarizes the changes in the number of units outstanding through June 30, 2019:
(In units)
 
Balance at December 31, 2018
794,089,518

MPLX expects the net proceeds, if any, from sales under our ATM Program will be used for general business purposes including repayment or refinancing of debt and funding for acquisitions, working capital requirements and capital expenditures. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we issued no common units under our ATM program. As of June 30, 2019, $1.7 billion of common units remain available for issuance through the ATM Program.

We intend to pay at least the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.2625 per unit per quarter, which equates to $209 million per quarter, or $834 million per year, based on the number of common units outstanding at June 30, 2019. On July 22, 2019, we announced the board of directors of our general partner had declared a distribution of $0.6675 per unit that will be paid on August 14, 2019 to unitholders of record on August 5, 2019. This represents an increase of $0.0100 per unit, or 1.5 percent, above the first quarter 2019 distribution of $0.6575 per unit and an increase of 6.4 percent over the second quarter 2018 distribution. This increase in the distribution is consistent with our intent to maintain an attractive distribution growth profile over an extended period of time. Although our partnership agreement requires that we distribute all of our available cash each quarter, we do not otherwise have a legal obligation to distribute any particular amount per common unit.

The allocation of total quarterly cash distributions to general and limited partners is as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Our distributions are declared subsequent to quarter end; therefore, the following table represents total cash distributions applicable to the period in which the distributions were earned. The distribution on common units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 includes the impact of the issuance of approximately 102 million units

issued to public unitholders and approximately 161 million units issued to MPC in connection with MPLX's acquisition of ANDX on July 30, 2019 while the Series B preferred units were issued as a result of the Merger, for which 600,000 ANDX preferred units were converted into 600,000 Series B preferred units of MPLX. Series B preferred unitholders are entitled to receive a fixed distribution of $68.75 per unit, per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15. Accordingly a cash distribution payment totaling $21 million will be paid to Series B unitholders on August 15, 2019.

Capital Expenditures

Our operations are capital intensive, requiring investments to expand, upgrade, enhance or maintain existing operations and to meet environmental and operational regulations. Our capital requirements consist of maintenance capital expenditures and growth capital expenditures. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures are those made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and to extend their useful lives, or other capital expenditures that are incurred in maintaining existing system volumes and related cash flows. In contrast, growth capital expenditures are those incurred for capital improvements that we expect will increase our operating capacity to increase volumes gathered, processed, transported or fractionated, decrease operating expenses within our facilities or increase operating income over the long term. Examples of growth capital expenditures include the acquisition of equipment or the construction costs associated with new well connections, and the development of additional pipeline, processing or storage capacity. In general, growth capital includes costs that are expected to generate additional or new cash flow for MPLX.

Our organic growth capital plan for 2019 is $2.2 billion. The L&S organic growth capital plan includes the continued expansion of MPLX’s marine fleet. We also have other projects including long-haul crude oil, natural gas and NGL pipelines as well as projects to increase our export capability which will further enhance our L&S segment full value chain capture. The G&P segment organic growth capital plan includes the addition of approximately 825 MMcf/d of processing capacity at five gas processing plants, two in the Marcellus and three in the Southwest, which expands MPLX’s processing capacity in the Permian Basin and the STACK shale play of Oklahoma. The G&P segment capital plan also includes the addition of approximately 100 mbpd of fractionation capacity in the Marcellus and Utica basins. We continuously evaluate our capital plan and make changes as conditions warrant.

Contractual Cash Obligations

As of June 30, 2019, our contractual cash obligations included long-term debt, finance and operating lease obligations, purchase obligations for services and to acquire property, plant and equipment, and other liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, our long-term debt obligations increased by $615 million due to additional borrowings under the MPLX Credit Agreement and contracts to acquire property, plant and equipment for new or growing projects decreased by $218 million. There were no other material changes to these obligations outside the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2018.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-balance sheet arrangements comprise those arrangements that may potentially impact our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations, even though such arrangements are not recorded as liabilities under U.S. GAAP. Our off-balance sheet arrangements are limited to indemnities and guarantees that are described in Note 20. Although these arrangements serve a variety of our business purposes, we are not dependent on them to maintain our liquidity and capital resources, and we are not aware of any circumstances that are reasonably likely to cause the off-balance sheet arrangements to have a material adverse effect on liquidity and capital resources.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

At June 30, 2019, MPC held 64 percent of the outstanding MPLX LP common units and the non-economic general partner interest.

Excluding revenues attributable to volumes shipped by MPC under joint tariffs with third parties that are treated as third-party revenues for accounting purposes, MPC accounted for 49 percent and 48 percent of our total revenues and other income for the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively. We provide crude oil and product pipeline transportation services based on regulated tariff rates and storage services and inland marine transportation based on contracted rates.

Of our total costs and expenses, MPC accounted for 29 percent and 28 percent for the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively. MPC performed certain services for us related to information technology, engineering, legal, accounting, treasury, human resources and other administrative services.

For further discussion of agreements and activity with MPC and related parties see Item 1. Business in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AND COMPLIANCE COSTS

We have incurred and may continue to incur substantial capital, operating and maintenance, and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately reflected in the prices of our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the age and location of its operating facilities.

As of June 30, 2019, there have been no significant changes to our environmental matters and compliance costs since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

As of June 30, 2019, there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED

As discussed in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, certain new financial accounting pronouncements will be effective for our financial statements in the future.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility of commodity prices. We employ various strategies, including the potential use of commodity derivative instruments, to economically hedge the risks related to these price fluctuations. We are also exposed to market risks related to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2019, we did not have any open financial derivative instruments to economically hedge the risks related to interest rate fluctuations or commodity derivative instruments to economically hedge the risks related to the volatility of commodity prices; however, we continually monitor the market and our exposure and may enter into these arrangements in the future. While there is a risk related to changes in fair value of derivative instruments we may enter into; such risk is mitigated by price or rate changes related to the underlying commodity or financial transaction.

Commodity Price Risk

The information about commodity price risk for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 does not differ materially from that discussed in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Outstanding Derivative Contracts

We have a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement with a producer customer in the Southern Appalachian region expiring in December 2022. The customer has the unilateral option to extend the agreement for two consecutive five-year terms through December 2032. For accounting purposes, these natural gas purchase commitment and term extending options have been aggregated into a single compound embedded derivative. The probability of the customer exercising its options is determined based on assumptions about the customer’s potential business strategy decision points that may exist at the time they would elect whether to renew the contract. The changes in fair value of this compound embedded derivative are based on the difference between the contractual and index pricing, the probability of the producer customer exercising its option to extend and the estimated favorability of these contracts compared to current market conditions. The changes in fair value are recorded in earnings through “Purchased product costs” on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the estimated fair value of this contract was a liability of $65 million and $61 million, respectively.

Open Derivative Positions and Sensitivity Analysis

As of June 30, 2019, we have no open commodity derivative contracts. We evaluate our portfolio of commodity derivative instruments on an ongoing basis and add or revise strategies in anticipation of changes in market conditions and in risk profiles.

Interest Rate Risk

Sensitivity analysis of the effect of a hypothetical 100-basis-point change in interest rates on long-term debt, excluding finance leases, is provided in the following table. Fair value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued interest approximate carrying value and are relatively insensitive to changes in interest rates due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. Accordingly, these instruments are excluded from the table.

(1) Fair value was based on market prices, where available, or current borrowing rates for financings with similar terms and maturities.
(2) Assumes a 100-basis-point decrease in the weighted average yield-to-maturity at June 30, 2019.
(3) Assumes a 100-basis-point change in interest rates. The change to net income was based on the weighted average balance of all outstanding variable-rate debt for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

At June 30, 2019, our portfolio of long-term debt consisted of fixed-rate instruments and variable-rate instruments under our revolving credit facility. The fair value of our fixed-rate debt is relatively sensitive to interest rate fluctuations. Our sensitivity to interest rate declines and corresponding increases in the fair value of our debt portfolio unfavorably affects our results of operations and cash flows only when we elect to repurchase or otherwise retire fixed-rate debt at prices above carrying value. Interest rate fluctuations generally do not impact the fair value of borrowings under our bank revolving credit or term loan facilities, but may affect our results of operations and cash flows. As of June 30, 2019, we did not have any financial derivative instruments to hedge the risks related to interest rate fluctuations; however, we continually monitor the market and our exposure and may enter into these agreements in the future.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of our general partner. Based upon that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of our general partner concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019, the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II – Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the legal proceedings previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.

MPLX, MarkWest, MarkWest Liberty Midstream, MarkWest Liberty Bluestone, L.L.C., Ohio Fractionation and MarkWest Utica EMG (collectively, the “MPLX Parties”) are parties to various lawsuits with Bilfinger Westcon, Inc. (“Westcon”) that were instituted in 2016 and 2017 in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio. The lawsuits relate to disputes regarding construction work performed by Westcon at the Bluestone, Mobley and Cadiz processing complexes in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio, respectively, and the Hopedale fractionation complex in Ohio. With respect to work performed by Westcon

61



at the Mobley and Bluestone processing complexes, one or more of the MPLX Parties have asserted breach of contract, fraud, and with respect to work performed at the Mobley processing complex, MarkWest Liberty Midstream has also asserted negligent misrepresentation claims against Westcon. Westcon has also asserted claims against one or more of the MPLX Parties regarding these construction projects for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, promissory estoppel, fraud and constructive fraud, tortious interference with contractual relations, and civil conspiracy. Collectively, in the several cases, the MPLX Parties sought in excess of $10 million, plus an unspecified amount of punitive damages. Collectively, in the several cases, Westcon sought in excess of $40 million, plus an unspecified amount of punitive damages. On July 31, 2019, Westcon and the MPLX Parties reached an agreement to resolve the disputes among those parties relating to the Bluestone processing complex in Pennsylvania. The settlement will not have a material adverse effect on MPLX’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 other than the risks described below related to our acquisition of ANDX.
The number of our outstanding common units has increased, and we have outstanding an additional class of preferred units as a result of the Merger, which could make it more difficult for us to pay the current level of quarterly distributions.
As of July 29, 2019, there were 794,358,663 MPLX common units outstanding. We issued approximately 263 million common units in connection with the Merger. Accordingly, the aggregate dollar amount required to pay the current per unit quarterly distribution on all our common units has increased, which could increase the likelihood that MPLX will not have sufficient funds to pay the current level of quarterly distributions to all unitholders.
Further, we issued 600,000 new Series B preferred units in the Merger. We must pay distributions that have accrued on the Series A preferred units and the new Series B preferred units prior to paying any distributions on our common units. Distributions are payable on the Series A preferred units at a rate of the greater of $0.528125 per quarter per Series A preferred unit or the quarterly distribution that the holder would have received on an as-converted basis. We paid approximately $20 million in distributions on the Series A preferred units for the first quarter of 2019. Distributions will initially accrue on the Series B preferred units at a rate of $68.75 per unit per annum, payable on a semi-annual basis, which amounts to total annual distributions of approximately $41 million. The requirement to pay distributions on the new Series B preferred units increases the likelihood that we will not have sufficient funds to pay the current level of distributions to our common unitholders following the completion of the Merger.
A downgrade in our credit ratings could impact our access to capital and costs of doing business, and independent third parties control and maintain our credit ratings.
Following the Merger, we have more debt outstanding on a consolidated basis we had prior to the Merger, and the Merger may cause rating agencies to reevaluate our ratings. A downgrade of our credit ratings might increase our cost of borrowing and could require us to post collateral with third parties, negatively impacting our available liquidity. Our ability to access capital markets could also be limited by a downgrade of its credit ratings and other disruptions.
Credit rating agencies perform independent analysis when assigning credit ratings. The analysis includes a number of criteria including, but not limited to, business composition, market and operational risks, as well as various financial tests. Credit rating agencies continue to review the criteria for industry sectors and various debt ratings and may make changes to those criteria from time to time. Credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold investments in the rated entity. Ratings are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating agencies, and we cannot assure that we will maintain our current credit ratings.
The Merger may not be accretive, and may be dilutive, to our earnings per unit, which may negatively affect the market price of our common units.
In connection with the completion of the Merger, we issued approximately 263 million common units. The issuance of these new common units could have the effect of depressing the market price of the common units, through dilution of earnings per unit or otherwise. Any dilution of, or delay of any accretion to, our earnings per unit could cause the price of our common units to decline or increase at a reduced rate.
We have incurred and will continue to incur significant transaction and Merger-related costs in connection with the Merger, which may be in excess of those anticipated by us.

62



We expect to continue to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with the Merger, combining the operations of the two partnerships and achieving desired synergies. These costs have been, and will continue to be, substantial.
We have incurred and will continue to incur transaction fees and costs related to formulating and implementing integration plans, including facilities and systems consolidation costs. We will continue to assess the magnitude of these costs, and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of the two partnerships’ businesses. Although we expect that the elimination of duplicative costs, as well as the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the businesses, should allow us to offset integration-related costs over time, this net benefit may not be achieved in the near term, or at all.
The costs described above, as well as other unanticipated costs and expenses, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results.
The integration of MPLX and ANDX may not be as successful as anticipated.
The Merger involves numerous operational, strategic, financial, accounting, legal, tax and other risks; potential liabilities associated with the acquired businesses; and uncertainties related to design, operation and integration of ANDX’s internal control over financial reporting. Difficulties in integrating MPLX and ANDX may result in ANDX performing differently than expected, in operational challenges or in the failure to realize anticipated efficiencies. MPLX’s and ANDX’s existing businesses could also be negatively impacted by the Merger. Potential difficulties that may be encountered in the integration process include, among other factors:
the inability to successfully integrate the businesses of MPLX and ANDX in a manner that permits MPLX to achieve the full revenue and cost savings anticipated from the Merger;
complexities associated with managing the larger, more complex, integrated business;
not realizing anticipated operating synergies;
integrating personnel who provide services to the two partnerships while maintaining focus on providing consistent, high-quality products and services;
potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses associated with the Merger;
loss of key personnel who provide services to the two partnerships;
performance shortfalls at one or both of the partnerships as a result of the diversion of management’s attention caused by completing the Merger and integrating the operations of MPLX and ANDX; and
the disruption of, or the loss of momentum in, each company’s ongoing business or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies.

We may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the Merger.
The success of the Merger depends, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated benefits and cost savings from combining MPLX’s and ANDX’s businesses. The anticipated benefits and cost savings of the Merger may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected or could have other adverse effects that we do not currently foresee. Some of the assumptions that we have made, such as the achievement of operating synergies and the expansion in opportunities for logistics growth in crude oil production basins and regions, may not be realized. The integration process may result in the loss of key personnel who provide services to the two partnerships, the disruption of ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies. There could be potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses associated with the Merger that were not discovered in the course of performing due diligence.
The market price of our common units may decline in the future as a result of the sale of common units held by former ANDX unitholders or current MPLX unitholders.
Following their receipt of our common units as consideration in the Merger, former ANDX common unitholders may seek to sell the MPLX common units delivered to them. Other MPLX common unitholders may also seek to sell common units held by them following completion of the Merger. These sales (or the perception that these sales may occur), coupled with the increase in the outstanding number of MPLX common units, may affect the market for, and the market price of, MPLX common units in an adverse manner.
The combined partnership will record goodwill and other intangible assets that could become impaired and result in material non-cash charges to the results of operations of the combined partnership in the future.
The Merger will be accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Under a reorganization of entities under common control, the assets and liabilities of ANDX transferred between entities under common control will be recorded by MPLX based on MPC’s historical

cost basis resulting from its preliminary purchase price accounting. MPLX will record ANDX’s assets and liabilities at MPC’s basis as of October 1, 2018, the date that common control was first established.
Effective October 1, 2018, MPC acquired Andeavor, including a controlling interest in ANDX, thus establishing common control between MPLX, ANDX, MPLX GP and ANDX GP. Under MPC’s application of the acquisition method of accounting, a portion of the total purchase price was allocated to ANDX’s tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets based on their fair values as of October 1, 2018. The excess of the allocated purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill. MPC’s basis in ANDX’s tangible assets, liabilities, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill will be transferred to MPLX upon completion of the Merger. To the extent the value of goodwill or intangible assets becomes impaired, the combined partnership may be required to incur material non-cash charges relating to such impairment. The combined partnership’s operating results may be significantly impacted from both the impairment and the underlying trends in the business that triggered the impairment.
Certain of the crude oil and natural gas gathering facilities we acquired through our acquisition of ANDX are located on Native American tribal lands and are subject to various federal and tribal approvals and regulations, which may increase our costs and delay or prevent our efforts to conduct planned operations.
Various federal agencies within the U.S. Department of the Interior, particularly the Bureau of Indian Affairs, BLM, and the Office of Natural Resources Revenue, along with each Native American tribe, regulate natural gas and oil operations on Native American tribal lands, including drilling and production requirements and environmental standards. In addition, each Native American tribe is a sovereign nation having the right to enforce laws and regulations and to grant approvals independent from federal, state and local statutes and regulations. These tribal laws and regulations include various taxes, fees, requirements to employ Native American tribal members and other conditions that apply to operators and contractors conducting operations on Native American tribal lands. Persons conducting operations on tribal lands are generally subject to the Native American tribal court system. In addition, if our relationships with any of the relevant Native American tribes were to deteriorate, we could face significant risks to our ability to continue operations on Native American tribal lands. One or more of these factors may increase our cost of doing business on Native American tribal lands and impact the viability of, or prevent or delay our ability to conduct our natural gas and oil gathering and transmission operations on such lands.
