Reports Q4 revenue $366.84M, consensus $397.69M. "2022 presented its share of challenges including decades-high inflation, tighter monetary policy, and the highest feedstock and energy costs for U.S. ethylene producers since 2011. While each year brings new challenges, the Partnership’s financial performance in 2022, supported by our sales agreement with Westlake, once again demonstrated the resiliency and consistency of its earnings and cash flows. This consistent cash flow enabled us to declare our 34th consecutive quarterly distribution payment and improve our twelve-month coverage ratio to 1.14x in 2022," said CEO Albert Chao. "2023 will likely bring new challenges, such as the current low third-party ethylene sales margins and relatively high interest rates; however, despite these headwinds, the insulative attributes of the agreement with Westlake give us confidence in another year of solid performance and cash flows."
