Nature of business
American Midstream Partners, LP (the “Partnership”) was formed on August 20, 2009 as a Delaware limited partnership for the purpose of acquiring and operating certain natural gas pipeline and processing businesses. We provide natural gas gathering, treating, processing, fractionating, marketing and transportation services primarily in the Gulf Coast and Southeast regions of the United States. We hold our assets in a series of wholly owned limited liability companies as well as a limited partnership. Our capital accounts consist of general partner interests and limited partner interests.
Our interstate and intrastate natural gas pipeline assets transport natural gas through the FERC regulated natural gas pipelines in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee. Our interstate and intrastate pipelines include:
High Point Gas Transmission, LLC, which owns and operates approximately 400 miles of intrastate pipeline and is connected to 40 meters with 32 active producers and offers processing options at the Toca processing plant with delivery to Southern Natural Gas available downstream of the processing plant in Louisiana;
American Midstream (Midla), LLC, which owns and operates approximately 370 miles of interstate pipeline that runs from the Monroe gas field in northern Louisiana south through Mississippi to Baton Rouge, Louisiana; and
American Midstream (AlaTenn), LLC, which owns and operates approximately 295 miles of interstate pipeline that runs through the Tennessee River Valley from Selmer, Tennessee to Huntsville, Alabama and serves an eight-county area in Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee.
ArcLight Transactions
On April 15, 2013, the Partnership, our general partner and AIM Midstream Holdings, LLC ("AIM"), an affiliate of American Infrastructure MLP Fund, entered into agreements (the "ArcLight Transactions") with High Point Infrastructure Partners, LLC ("HPIP"), an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC, pursuant to which HPIP (i) acquired 90% of our general partner and all of our subordinated units from AIM and (ii) contributed certain midstream assets and $15.0 million in cash to us in exchange for 5,142,857 newly issued convertible preferred units (the “Series A Units”) issued by the Partnership.  Of the $15.0 million cash consideration paid by High Point, approximately $2.5 million was used to pay certain transaction expenses of High Point, and the remaining approximately $12.5 million was used to repay borrowings outstanding under the Partnership's credit facility in connection with the Fourth Amendment. As a result of these transactions, which were also consummated on April 15, 2013, HPIP acquired both control of our general partner and a majority of our outstanding limited partner interests.  The midstream assets contributed by HPIP consist of approximately 600 miles of natural gas and liquids pipeline assets located in southeast Louisiana and the shallow water and deep shelf Gulf of Mexico (commonly referred to as the "High Point system"). The High Point system gathers natural gas from both onshore and offshore producing regions around southeast Louisiana. The onshore footprint is in Plaquemines and St. Bernard's Parishes, LA. The offshore footprint consists of the following federal Gulf of Mexico zones: Mississippi Canyon, Viosca Knoll, West Delta, Main Pass, South Pass and Breton Sound. Natural gas is collected at more than 75 receipt points that connect to hundreds of wells targeting various geological zones in water depths up to 1,000 feet, with an emphasis on oil and liquids-rich reservoirs. The High Point system is comprised of FERC-regulated transmission assets and non-jurisdictional assets, both of which accept natural gas from well production and interconnected pipeline systems. Natural gas is delivered to the Toca Gas Processing Plant, operated by Enterprise, where the products are processed and the residue gas sent to an unaffiliated interstate system owned by Kinder Morgan. See Note 3 "Acquisitions and Divestitures" for further information.
The Partnership believes that the consummation of the ArcLight Transactions will allow it to comply with the Consolidated Total Leverage to EBTIDA ratio in the Fourth Amendment to our June 2012 amended credit agreement ("Fourth Amendment"). However, no assurances can be given that the Partnership's results of operations following the ArcLight Transactions will allow us to comply with financial covenants of the Fourth Amendment. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to comply with the financial covenants in the Fourth Amendment and we are not able enter into an agreement to refinance or obtain covenant default waivers, then the outstanding balance under our credit facility could become due and payable upon acceleration by the lenders in our banking group and other agreements with cross-default provisions, if any, could become due. In addition, failure to comply with any of the covenants under our Fourth Amendment could adversely affect our ability to fund ongoing operations and growth capital requirements as well as our ability to pay distributions to our unitholders. See Note 19 "Liquidity" for further information.

Blackwater Terminals
On December 17, 2013, the Partnership completed the Merger of Blackwater, an owner, developer and operator of petroleum, agricultural, and chemical liquid terminal storage facilities. Blackwater owns and operates 1.3 million barrels of storage capacity across four terminal sites located in Westwego, Louisiana; Brunswick, Georgia; Harvey, Louisiana; and Salisbury, Maryland. See Note 3 "Acquisitions" for further information.
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include disclosures required by GAAP for annual periods. We have made reclassifications to amounts reported in prior period condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to our current year presentation. These reclassifications did not have an impact on net income for the period previously reported. The information furnished herein reflects all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of financial position as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, statement of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, statement of changes in partners’ capital and noncontrolling interest for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, and statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Our financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2013. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (“Annual Report”) filed on April 16, 2013.
Effective December 17, 2013, Blackwater was acquired by the Partnership, in the form of the Merger described above, from ArcLight. However, as of April 15, 2013, an affiliate of ArcLight acquired controlling interest of the Partnership, also described above, at which time Blackwater was also an affiliate of ArcLight. As Blackwater and the Partnership were both affiliates of ArcLight as of April 15, 2013, these financial statements include the effect of Blackwater's operations starting as of the date of the establishment of common control. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements include Blackwater, which have a fiscal year end of March 31, 2013, and were presented from the period April 15, 2013 through September 30, 2013. Please see Note 17 "Reporting Segments" for financial information of Blackwater as presented in our Terminals segment.
Consolidation Policy
Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest. We hold an undivided interest in the Burns Point gas processing facility in which we are responsible for our proportionate share of the costs and expenses of the facility. Our consolidated financial statements reflect our proportionate share of the revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities of this undivided interest. In July 2012, the Partnership acquired a 87.4% undivided interest in the Chatom Processing and Fractionation facility (the "Chatom system"). Our consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Chatom system since acquisition, and the interests in the Chatom system held by non-affiliated working interest owners are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the Partnership's consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
When preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions based on information available at the time. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Estimates and judgments are based on information available at the time such estimates and judgments are made. Adjustments made with respect to the use of these estimates and judgments often relate to information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and judgments are inherent in the preparation of financial statements. Estimates and judgments are used in, among other things (1) estimating unbilled revenues, product purchases and operating and general and administrative costs, (2) developing fair value assumptions, including estimates of future cash flows and discount rates, (3) analyzing long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets for possible impairment, (4) estimating the useful lives of assets and (5) determining amounts to accrue for contingencies, guarantees and indemnifications. Actual results, therefore, could differ materially from estimated amounts.
Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions and Divestitures
Blackwater Terminals
Effective December 17, 2013, we acquired Blackwater, consisting of AL Blackwater, LLC ("ALB"), a Delaware limited liability company, Blackwater Midstream Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a majority owned subsidiary of ALB, and Blackwater Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership. Blackwater owns and operates 1.3 million barrels of storage capacity across four terminal sites located in Westwego, Louisiana; Brunswick, Georgia; Harvey, Louisiana; and Salisbury, Maryland.

The Merger of Blackwater represents a transaction between entities under common control and a change in reporting entity. Transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control are accounted for as if the transfer occurred at the beginning of the period or date of common control. Therefore, net assets received were recorded at their historical book value of $22.7 million as of the date common control was established which is April 15, 2013.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, Blackwater contributed $2.9 million of revenue and $0.5 million of net loss attributable to the Partnership's Terminals segment, which are included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

On July 10, 2013, Blackwater acquired and purchased from Chemtura Corporation approximately 56 acres of property and improvements located in Harvey, LA for $2.5 million (the "Harvey assets"). The land is adjacent to the Mississippi River and the assets include dormant storage tanks, unoccupied buildings, a barge dock and other improvements.

The Harvey assets when purchased did not include any employees, customer contracts, permits, licenses, offices, procedures, systems, or processes that had the ability to produce outputs; thus this asset purchase did not meet the definition of a business under the accounting guidance.

Effective April 15, 2013, our general partner contributed 100% of the limited liability company interests in High Point Gas Transmission, LLC and High Point Gas Gathering, LLC, (the “High Point System”). The High Point System entities own midstream assets consisting of approximately 700 miles of natural gas and liquids pipeline assets located in southeast Louisiana, in the Plaquemines and St. Bernard's Parishes, and the shallow water and deep shelf Gulf of Mexico, including the Mississippi Canyon, Viosca Knoll, West Delta, Main Pass, South Pass and Breton Sound zones. Natural gas is collected at more than 75 receipt points that connect hundreds of wells with an emphasis on oil and liquids-rich reservoirs.

The High Point System, along with $15.0 million in cash, was contributed to us by HPIP in exchange for 5,142,857 Series A Units. Of the $15.0 million cash consideration paid by High Point, approximately $2.5 million was used to pay certain transaction expenses of High Point, and the remaining approximately $12.5 million was used to repay borrowings outstanding under the Partnership's credit facility in connection with the Fourth Amendment. The contribution of the High Point System occurred concurrently with HPIP's acquisition of 90% of our general partner and all of our subordinated units, which resulted in HPIP gaining control of the our general partner and a majority of our outstanding limited partner interests.

The fair value of the Series A Units on April 15, 2013 was $17.50 per unit, or $90.0 million and was issued by the Partnership in exchange for cash of approximately $12.5 million and net assets of $61.9 million contributed to the Partnership by our general partner.  The contribution of net assets of the High Point system was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control whereby the High Point system was recorded at historical book value.  As such, the value of the Series A Units in excess of the net asset contributed by our general partner amounted to $15.6 million and was allocated pro-rata to the general partner and existing limited partners interest based on their ownership interests.

The contribution is being treated as a transaction between entities under common control, under which the net assets received are recorded at their carrying value as of date of transfer. The following table presents the carrying value of the identified assets received and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in thousands):

Subsequent to the contribution, the High Point System contributed $5.2 million of revenue and $2.0 million of net income attributable to the Partnership's Transmission segment, which are included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

Chatom Gathering, Processing and Fractionation Plant
Effective July 1, 2012, we acquired an 87.4% undivided interest in the Chatom system from affiliates of Quantum Resources Management, LLC. The acquisition fair value consideration of $51.4 million includes a credit associated with the cash flow the Chatom system generated between January 1, 2012 and the effective date of July 1, 2012.  The consideration paid by the Partnership consisted of cash, which was funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

The Chatom system is located in Washington County, Alabama, approximately 15 miles from our Bazor Ridge processing plant in Wayne County, Mississippi, and consists of a 25 MMcf/d refrigeration processing plant, a 1,900 Bbl/d fractionation unit, a 160 long-ton per day sulfur recovery unit, and a 29 mile gas gathering system. We believe the fractionating services provide flexibility to the Partnership's product and service offerings.

The following table presents the fair value of consideration transferred to acquire the Chatom system and the amounts of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, as well as the fair value of the 12.6% noncontrolling interest in the Chatom system at the acquisition date (in thousands):

The fair value of the property, plant and equipment and noncontrolling interests were estimated by applying a combination of the market and income approaches. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined by ASC 820. Primarily using the income approach, the fair value estimates are based on i) an assumed cost of capital of 9.25%, ii) an assumed terminal value based on the present value of estimated EBITDA, iii) an inflationary cost increase of 2.5%, iv) forward market prices as of July 2012 for natural gas and crude oil, v) a Federal tax rate of 35% and a state tax rate of 6.5%, and vi) an increase in processed and fractionated volumes in 2013, declining thereafter. Working capital was estimated using net realizable value. Accrued revenue was deemed to be fully collectible at July 1, 2012.

Our 87.4% undivided interest in the Chatom system contributed $13.6 million and $27.3 million of revenue and $1.3 million and $2.4 million of net income attributable to the Partnership for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively which are included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Other non-strategic midstream and terminal assets

We classify long-lived assets to be disposed of through sales that meet specific criteria as held for sale. We cease depreciating those assets effective on the date the asset is classified as held for sale. We record those assets at the lower of their carrying value or the estimated fair value less the cost to sell. Until the assets are disposed of, an estimate of the fair value is re-determined when related events or circumstances change.

During the second quarter of 2013, management was approved to commit to a plan to sell certain non-strategic gathering and processing assets which meet specific criteria as held for sale. As of June 30, 2013, certain gathering and processing assets were written down by $1.8 million to the estimated fair value less cost to sell. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined by ASC 820. Primarily using the income approach, the fair value estimates are based on i) present value of estimated EBITDA, ii) an assumed discount rate of 10.0%, and iii) a decline in throughput volumes of 2.5% in 2013 and thereafter.

The net book value of the gathering and processing assets of $0.9 million are presented as Noncurrent assets held for sale, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Other assets and liabilities of the held for sale assets are presented within Current assets held for sale and Current liabilities held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

As part of the Merger with Blackwater, we acquired long-lived terminal assets classified as held for sale. The net book value of the assets and liabilities attributable to those assets are presented separately on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and comprise $0.1 million of Current assets held for sale, $2.2 million of Noncurrent assets held for sale, net , $0.3 million of Current liabilities held for sale and the entire balance of Long-term liabilities held for sale as of September 30, 2013.

As a result of the plan divestiture of these non-strategic midstream and terminal assets, we have accounted for these disposal groups as discontinued operations within our Gathering and Processing and Terminal segments. Accordingly, we reclassified and excluded the disposal group's results of operations from our results of continuing operations and reported the disposal group's results of operations as (Loss) gain from operations of disposal groups in our accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for all periods presented. We did not, however, elect to present separately the operating, investing and financing cash flows related to the disposal groups in our accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as this activity was immaterial for all periods presented. The following table presents the revenue, expense and (loss) gain from operations of disposal groups associated with the assets classified as held for sale for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):

Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control
 
We may enter into transactions with our general partner whereby we receive a contribution of midstream assets or subsidiaries in exchange for consideration by the Partnership.  We account for the net assets received using the historical book value of the asset or subsidiary being contributed or transferred as these are transaction between entities under common control.  Our historical financial statements may be revised to include the results attributable to the assets contributed from our general partner as if we owned such assets for all period presented by the Partnership since the change in control of our general partner, effective April 15, 2013.

Goodwill and intangible assets

We record goodwill as the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets of the acquired business. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event or change in circumstance indicates that an impairment may have occurred. We first assess qualitative factors to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that an impairment has occurred and it is therefore necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. If the two-step goodwill impairment test indicates that the goodwill is impaired, an impairment loss is recorded.

We record the estimated fair value of acquired customer contracts as intangible assets. The intangible assets are amortized over the remaining periods of the customer contracts, which range between 5 months and thirty-five months.

Income taxes

The Partnership is not a taxable entity for federal income taxes and does not directly pay federal income tax. Blackwater is a taxable entity. We account for income taxes using an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. If it is more than likely that a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, which clarifies that ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, applies to financial instruments or derivative transactions accounted for under ASC 815. The amendments require disclosures to present both gross and net amounts of derivative assets and liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements with counterparties. We currently present our derivative assets and liabilities net on our statement of financial position. We have provided additional disclosures regarding the gross amounts of derivative assets and liabilities in Note 5 "Derivatives" in accordance with these new standards updates.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI"), which requires entities to present either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements (i) the amount of significant items reclassified from each component of AOCI and (ii) the income statement line items affected by the reclassifications. We adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2013; it did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements as there are currently no items reclassified from AOCI.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASC No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This guidance was issued related to the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward exists. The updated guidance requires an entity to net its unrecognized tax benefits against the deferred tax assets for all same jurisdiction net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforwards. A gross presentation will be required only if such carryforwards are not available or would not be used by the entity to settle any additional income taxes resulting from disallowance of the uncertain tax position. The update is effective prospectively for the Partnership’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014 and we are currently evaluating the financial impact.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Trade Accounts Receivable
Concentration of Credit Risk and Trade Accounts Receivable
Concentration of Credit Risk and Trade Accounts Receivable
Our primary market areas are located in the United States along the Gulf Coast and in the Southeast. We have a concentration of trade receivable balances due from companies engaged in the production, trading, distribution and marketing of natural gas, NGL and condensate products. This concentration of customers may affect our overall credit risk in that the customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic, regulatory or other factors. Generally, our customers’ historical financial and operating information is analyzed prior to extending credit. We manage our exposure to credit risk through credit analysis, credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures, and for certain transactions, we may request letters of credit, prepayments or guarantees. We maintain allowances for potentially uncollectible accounts receivable; however, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, no allowances on or write-offs of accounts receivable were recorded.
The following table summarizes the percentage of revenue earned from those customers that exceed 10% or greater of the Partnership's consolidated revenue in the consolidated statement of operations for the each of the periods presented below:

Commodity Derivatives
To minimize the effect of commodity prices and maintain our cash flow and the economics of our development plans, we enter into commodity hedge contracts from time to time. The terms of the contracts depend on various factors, including management’s view of future commodity prices, acquisition economics on purchased assets and future financial commitments. This hedging program is designed to mitigate the effect of commodity price downturns while allowing us to participate in some commodity price upside. Management regularly monitors the commodity markets and financial commitments to determine if, when, and at what level commodity hedging is appropriate in accordance with policies that are established by the board of directors of our general partner. Currently, the commodity derivatives are in the form of swaps, puts and collars. As of June 30, 2013, the aggregate notional volume of our commodity derivatives was 7.1 million gallons.
We enter into commodity contracts with multiple counterparties. We may be required to post collateral with our counterparties in connection with our derivative positions. As of June 30, 2013, we have not posted collateral with our counterparties. The counterparties are not required to post collateral with us in connection with their derivative positions. Netting agreements are in place with our counterparties that permit us to offset our commodity derivative asset and liability positions.

Interest Rate Swap

We entered into an interest rate swap to manage the impact of the interest rate risk associated with our credit facility, effectively converting a portion of the cash flows related to our long-term variable rate debt into fixed rate cash flows. As of June 30, 2013, the notional amount of our interest rate swap was $100 million. The interest rate swap was entered into with a single counterparty and we were not required to post collateral.

Weather Derivative

In the second quarter of 2013, we entered into a weather derivative to mitigate the impact of potential unfavorable weather to our operations under which we could receive payments totaling up to $10 million in the event that a hurricane or hurricanes of certain strength pass through the area as identified in the derivative agreement. The weather derivative is being accounted for using the intrinsic value method, under which the fair value of the contract is zero and any amounts received are recognized as gains during the period received. The weather derivative was entered into with a single counterparty and we were not required to post collateral. We paid a premium of approximately $1.1 million which is recorded in Risk management assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and is being amortized to Direct operating expense on a straight-line basis over the 12 month term of the contract. As of June 30, 2013, the unamortized amount of the risk management asset was approximately $1.0 million.
As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the value associated with our commodity derivatives, interest rate swap instrument and weather derivative were recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, under the captions as follows (in thousands):

Fair Value Measurement
Fair Value Measurement
Fair Value Measurement
The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include:
Level 1 – Inputs represent unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable and considered significant to fair value measurement.
A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the classification of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy.
We believe the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments would be classified as Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy.
The recorded value of the amounts outstanding under the credit facility approximates its fair value, as interest rates are variable, based on prevailing market rates and the short-term nature of borrowings and repayments under the credit facility. Our existing revolving credit facility would be classified as Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of all derivatives instruments is estimated using a market valuation methodology based upon forward commodity price curves, volatility curves as well as other relevant economic measures, if necessary. Discount factors may be utilized to extrapolate a forecast of future cash flows associated with long dated transactions or illiquid market points. The inputs are obtained from independent pricing services, and we have made no adjustments to the obtained prices.
We have consistently applied these valuation techniques in all periods presented and believe we have obtained the most accurate information available for the types of derivatives contracts held. We will recognize transfers between levels at the end of the reporting period for which the transfer has occurred. We recognized transfers out of Level 3 into Level 2 as a result of changes in tenure and market points of certain contracts in the amount of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. There were no such transfers for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, our commodity derivative instruments and interest rate swap, included as part of Risk management assets and liabilities within the balance sheet, that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (in thousands):

Of the gross property, plant and equipment balances at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $98.1 million and $26.1 million, respectively, were related to AlaTenn, Midla and HPGT, our FERC regulated interstate assets.
Capitalized interest was less than $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.
Depreciation expense was $6.8 million and $12.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
Asset Impairments
During the second quarter of 2013, management determined to change its commercial approach towards certain non-strategic gathering and processing assets. As a result, an asset impairment charge of $15.2 million was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2013. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined by ASC 820. Primarily using the income approach, the fair value estimates are based on i) present value of estimated EBITDA, ii) an assumed discount rate of 10.0%, and iii) an decline in throughput volumes of 2.5% in 2013 and thereafter.
During the second quarter of 2013, management was approved to commit to a plan to sell certain non-strategic gathering and processing assets which meet specific criteria as held for sale. As of June 30, 2013, certain gathering and processing assets were written down by $1.8 million to the estimated fair value less cost to sell. See Note 3 "Acquisitions and Divestitures".
Insurance proceeds
Involuntary conversions result from the loss of an asset because of some unforeseen event (e.g., destruction due to hurricanes). Some of these events are insurable, thus resulting in a property damage insurance recovery. Amounts we receive from insurance carriers are net of any deductibles related to the covered event. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we collected $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of nonrefundable cash proceeds from our insurance carrier. During the first quarter of 2013, $0.5 million of nonrefundable cash proceeds were recognized as an offset to property, plant and equipment write-downs of $0.1 million and presented as $0.4 million under the caption Gain (loss) on involuntary conversion of property, plant and equipment. During the second quarter of 2013, $0.6 million of nonrefundable cash proceeds were associated with business interruption and recorded to Revenue in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Asset Retirement Obligation
Asset Retirement Obligation
Asset Retirement Obligations
We record a liability for the fair value of asset retirement obligations and conditional asset retirement obligations that we can reasonably estimate, on a discounted basis, in the period in which the liability is incurred. We collectively refer to asset retirement obligations and conditional asset retirement obligations as ARO.
Certain assets related to our transmission segment have regulatory obligations to perform remediation and, in some instances, dismantlement and removal activities when the assets are abandoned. These asset retirement obligations include varying levels of activity including disconnecting inactive assets from active assets, cleaning and purging assets, and in some cases, completely removing the assets and returning the land to its original state. These assets have been in existence for many years and with regular maintenance will continue to be in service for many years to come. It is not possible to predict when demand for these transmission services will cease, and we do not believe that such demand will cease for the foreseeable future. A portion of our regulatory obligations is related to assets that we plan to take out of service.

We are required to establish security against any potential secondary obligations relating to the abandonment of the certain transmission assets that may be imposed on the previous owner by applicable regulatory authorities. As such, we have a restricted cash account that is established, held, and maintained by a third party that amounts to $1.0 million and is presented in Other assets, net in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2013.

As of December 31, 2012, the total leverage ratio test, one of the primary financial covenants that we were required to maintain under our credit facility, was limited to a maximum of 4.50 times. At December 31, 2012, our total indebtedness was approximately $130.9 million, which caused our total leverage to EBITDA ratio to be approximately 5.70-to-1. As a result, on December 26, 2012, the Partnership entered into the Third Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement, dated as of December 26, 2012 (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment provided for a waiver of the Partnership's compliance with the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio with respect to the quarter ending December 31, 2012 and for one month thereafter. The Third Amendment also required the Partnership to provide certain financial and operating information of the Partnership on a monthly basis for 2013 and for any month after 2013 in which the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio of the Partnership is in excess of 4.00 to 1.00. The remaining material terms and conditions of the senior secured revolving credit facility, including pricing, maturity and covenants, remained unchanged by the Third Amendment.
On January 24, 2013, the Partnership entered into the second waiver to the credit facility that extended the waiver period with respect to the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio to March 31, 2013 (and subsequently extended to April 16, 2013). Additional covenants during the waiver period included i) total outstanding borrowings under the credit facility shall not exceed $150.0 million; ii) restrictions on certain acquisitions; iii) an increase to the Eurodollar Rate by 0.50%; iv) additional fees of 0.125% of the principal amount on each of February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2013; and v) execution of a compliance certificate.
We were in compliance with the Consolidated Total Leverage Covenant Ratio test, which was 4.62, under our credit facility as of June 30, 2013, in accordance with the leverage covenants as modified in the Fourth Amendment to the credit facility executed on April 15, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, we had approximately $126.3 million of outstanding borrowings and approximately $34.6 million of available borrowing capacity as a result of the reduction of our borrowing capacity to a total of $175 million as described herein.
See Note 19 "Liquidity" for further updates to our liquidity and long-term debt.
Other debt
Other debt represents insurance premium financing in the original amounts of $3.3 million bearing interest at between 3.22% and 4.00% per annum, which is repayable in equal monthly installments of approximately $0.4 million through the fourth quarter of 2013.
Blackwater debt
As a result of the Merger, all outstanding debt held by Blackwater was settled in full upon closing the transaction. However, the Merger of Blackwater represents a transaction between entities under common control and a change in reporting entity. Transfers of net assets or exchanges of shares between entities under common control are accounted for as if the transfer occurred at the beginning of the period, or the date when common control was established, whichever is later. As such, long-term debt of Blackwater held as of June 30, 2013 is included herein and consists of notes and loans with counterparties as well as a loan with an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC.
Our outstanding borrowings under debt at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, were as follows (in thousands):

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, letters of credit outstanding under the credit facility were $2.6 million.
In connection with our credit facility and amendments thereto, we incurred $5.8 million in debt issuance costs that are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the credit facility.
Partners' Capital
Partners' Capital
Partners’ Capital and Convertible Preferred Units
Our capital accounts are comprised of approximately 2% general partner interest and 98% limited partner interests. Our limited partners have limited rights of ownership as provided for under our partnership agreement and the right to participate in our distributions. Our general partner manages our operations and participates in our distributions, including certain incentive distributions pursuant to the incentive distribution rights that are non-voting limited partner interests held by our general partner.
Series A Convertible Preferred Units
On April 15, 2013, the Partnership, our general partner and AIM Midstream Holdings, LLC entered in the ArcLight Transactions with High Point, pursuant to which High Point (i) acquired 90% of our general partner and all of our subordinated units from AIM Midstream Holdings and (ii) contributed certain midstream assets and $15.0 million in cash to us in exchange for 5,142,857 Series A Units issued by the Partnership.  Of the $15.0 million cash consideration paid by High Point, approximately $2.5 million was used to pay certain transaction expenses of High Point, and the remaining approximately $12.5 million was used to repay borrowings outstanding under the Partnership's credit facility in connection with the Fourth Amendment. As a result of these transactions, which were also consummated on April 15, 2013, High Point acquired both control of our general partner and a majority of our outstanding limited partnership interests. On April 15, 2013, our general partner entered into the Third Amended & Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Amended Partnership Agreement”) of the Partnership providing for the creation and designation of the rights, preferences, terms and conditions of the Series A Units.
The Series A Units receive dividends prior to distributions to Partnership common unitholders. Through October 1, 2014, the dividends distributed to the Series A Unitholders are equal to $0.25 per unit and additional Series A Units in an amount equal to the cash portion of the distribution. Subsequent to that date, the distribution will be the greater of the distribution to be made to common unitholders or approximately $0.50 per unit. The Series A Units may be converted into common units on a one-to-one basis, subject to customary anti-dilutive adjustments, at the option of the unitholders on or any time after January 14, 2014.
Upon any liquidation and winding up of the Partnership or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, the holders of Series A Preferred Units generally will be entitled to receive, in preference to the holders of any of the Partnership's other securities, an amount equal to the sum of the $17.50 multiplied by the number of Series A Units owned by such holders, plus all accrued but unpaid distributions on such Series A Preferred Units.
Prior to the consummation of any recapitalization, reorganization, consolidation, merger, spin-off or other business combination in which the holders of common units are to receive securities, cash or other assets (a “Partnership Event”), we are obligated to make an irrevocable written offer, subject to consummation of the Partnership Event, to each holder of Series A Preferred Units to redeem all (but not less than all) of such holder's Series A Preferred Units for a price per Series A Preferred Unit payable in cash equal to the greater of:
the sum of $17.50 and all accrued and accumulated but unpaid distributions for each Series A Preferred Unit; and
an amount equal to the product of:
(i) the number of common units into which each Series A Preferred Unit is convertible; and
(ii) the sum of:
(A) the cash consideration per common unit to be paid to the holders of common units pursuant to the Partnership Event, plus
(B) the fair market value per common unit of the securities or other assets to be distributed to the holders of the common units pursuant to the Partnership Event.
Upon receipt of such a redemption offer from us, each holder of Series A Preferred Units may elect to receive such cash amount or a preferred security issued by the person surviving or resulting from such Partnership Event and containing provisions substantially equivalent to the provisions set forth in the Amended Partnership Agreement with respect to the Series A Preferred Units without material abridgement.
The Series A Preferred Units have voting rights that are identical to the voting rights of the common units and will vote with the common units as a single class, with each Series A Preferred Unit entitled to one vote for each common unit into which such Series A Preferred Unit is convertible.
The fair value of the Series A Units on April 15, 2013 was $17.50 per unit, or $90.0 million and was issued by the Partnership in exchange for cash of approximately $12.5 million and net assets of $61.9 million contributed to the Partnership by our general partner.  The contribution of net assets of the High Point system was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control whereby the High Point system was recorded at historical book value.  As such, the value of the Series A Units in excess of the net asset contributed by our general partner amounted to $15.6 million and was allocated pro-rata to the general partner and existing limited partners interest based on their ownership interests. The fair value measurement was based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined by ASC 820. Primarily using the income approach, the fair value estimate was based on i) present value of estimated future contracted distributions, ii) an assumed discount rate of 18.0%, and iii) an assumed distribution growth rate of 1.0% in 2014 and thereafter.
The numbers of units outstanding as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, were as follows (in thousands):

Net Income (Loss) attributable to Limited Common and General Partner Units
Net income (loss) attributable to the general partner and the limited partners (common and subordinated unit holders) is allocated in accordance with their respective ownership percentages, after giving effect to incentive distributions paid to the general partner. Basic net income per limited partner unit is computed based on the weighted average number of units outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per limited partner unit is computed based on the weighted average number of units plus the effect of dilutive potential units outstanding during the period. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to distributions (whether paid or unpaid) are classified as participating securities and are included in our computation of diluted net income per limited partner unit. There was no dilutive effect of unit based awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The dilutive effect of unit based awards was 172,552 equivalent units during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.
We compute earnings per unit using the two-class method. The two-class method requires that securities that meet the definition of a participating security be considered for inclusion in the computation of basic earnings per unit. Under the two-class method, earnings per unit is calculated as if all of the earnings for the period were distributed under the terms of our Partnership agreement, regardless of whether the general partner has discretion over the amount of distributions to be made in any particular period, whether those earnings would actually be distributed during a particular period from an economic or practical perspective, or whether the general partner has other legal or contractual limitations on its ability to pay distributions that would prevent it from distributing all of the earnings for a particular period.
The two-class method does not impact our overall net income or other financial results; however, in periods in which aggregate net income exceeds our aggregate distributions for such period, it will have the impact of reducing net income per limited partner unit. This result occurs as a larger portion of our aggregate earnings, as if distributed, is allocated to the incentive distribution rights of the general partner, even though we make distributions on the basis of available cash and not earnings.
The following table is the calculation of net income (loss) per limited partner unit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively (in thousands, with the exception of per unit amounts):

Distributions
We made distributions of $7.8 million and $8.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We made no distributions in respect of our general partner’s incentive distribution rights during 2013 or 2012. We depend on our credit facility for future capital needs and may use it to fund a portion of cash distributions to unitholders, as necessary, depending on the level of our operating cashflow.
As a result of the issuance of the Series A Units, we have accrued $1.1 million equal to the cash portion of the distribution and $1.1 million equal to the additional Series A Units in an amount equal to the cash portion of the distribution payable in the third quarter of 2013.
Long-Term Incentive Plan
Long-Term Incentive Plan
Long-Term Incentive Plan
Our general partner manages our operations and activities and employs the personnel who provide support to our operations. On November 2, 2009, the board of directors of our general partner adopted a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) for its employees, consultants and directors who perform services for it or its affiliates. On May 25, 2010, the board of directors of our general partner adopted an amended and restated LTIP. On July 11, 2012, the board of directors of our general partner adopted a second amended and restated LTIP that effectively increased available awards by 871,750 units. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, 870,555 and 920,193 units, respectively, were available for future grant under the LTIP, giving retroactive treatment to the reverse unit split in connection with our recapitalization described in our Annual Report.
Ownership in the awards is subject to forfeiture until the vesting date. The LTIP is administered by the board of directors of our general partner. The board of directors of our general partner, at its discretion, may elect to settle such vested phantom units with a number of units equivalent to the fair market value at the date of vesting in lieu of cash. Although, our general partner has the option to settle in cash upon the vesting of phantom units, our general partner does not currently intend to settle these awards in cash. Although other types of awards are contemplated under the LTIP, all currently outstanding awards are phantom units without distribution equivalent rights ("DERs"). Generally, grants issued under the LTIP vest in increments of 25% on each of the first four anniversary dates of the date of the grant and do not contain any other restrictive conditions related to vesting other than continued employment.
The following table summarizes our unit-based awards for each of the periods indicated, in units:

The fair value of our phantom units, which are subject to equity classification, is based on the fair value of our units at the grant date. Compensation costs related to these awards, including amortization, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $1.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $1.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, which is classified as equity compensation expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the non-cash portion in partners’ capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The total fair value of vested units at the time of vesting was $1.1 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
The total compensation cost related to unvested awards not yet recognized at June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $1.1 million and $2.6 million, respectively, and the weighted average period over which this cost is expected to be recognized as of June 30, 2013 is approximately 1.2 years.

Related-Party Transactions
Related-Party Transactions
Related-Party Transactions
Employees of our general partner are assigned to work for us. Where directly attributable, the costs of all compensation, benefits expenses and employer expenses for these employees are charged directly by our general partner to American Midstream, LLC, which, in turn, charges the appropriate subsidiary. Our general partner does not record any profit or margin for the administrative and operational services charged to us. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, administrative and operational services expenses of $3.8 million and $6.3 million, respectively, were charged to us by our general partner. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, administrative and operational services expenses of $2.5 million and $6.2 million, respectively, were charged to us by our general partner. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, our general partner incurred approximately $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of costs associated with certain business development activities.  If the business development activities result in a project that will be pursued and funded by the Partnership, we will reimburse our general partner for the business development costs related to that project.
Reporting Segments
Reporting Segments
Reporting Segments

Our operations are located in the United States and are organized into three reporting segments: (1) Gathering and Processing,(2) Transmission and (3) Terminals.

Gathering and Processing

Our Gathering and Processing segment provides “wellhead-to-market” services, which include transporting raw natural gas from the wellhead through gathering systems, treating the raw natural gas, processing raw natural gas to separate the NGLs from the natural gas, performing fractionation and selling or delivering pipeline-quality natural gas and NGLs to various markets and pipeline systems, to producers of natural gas and oil.

Transmission

Our Transmission segment transports and delivers natural gas from producing wells, receipt points or pipeline interconnects for shippers and other customers, including local distribution companies, or LDCs, utilities and industrial, and commercial and power generation customers.

Terminals

Our Terminals segment provides above-ground storage services at our marine terminals that support various commercial customers, including commodity brokers, refiners and chemical manufacturers to store a range of products, including crude oil, bunker fuel, distillates, chemicals and agricultural products.

These segments are monitored separately by management for performance and are consistent with internal financial reporting. These segments have been identified based on the differing products and services, regulatory environment and the expertise required for these operations. Gross margin is a performance measure utilized by management to monitor the business of each segment.

The contribution of the High Point system, which occurred concurrently with HPIP's acquisition of 90% of our general partner, is presented within our Transmission segment. The acquistion of Blackwater is presented within our Terminals segment. The following tables set forth our segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):

(a)
Segment gross margin for our Gathering and Processing segment consists of revenue, realized gain (loss) on commodity derivatives less construction, operating and maintenance agreement (“COMA”) income, less purchases of natural gas, NGLs and condensate (inclusive, of gross margin from discontinued operations). Segment gross margin for our Transmission segment consists of revenue, less COMA income, less purchases of natural gas. Gross margin consists of the sum of the segment gross margin amounts for each of these segments. As an indicator of our operating performance, gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our gross margin may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate gross margin in the same manner. Effective October 1, 2012, we changed our segment gross margin measure to exclude COMA income. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, $0.1 million and $0.1 million in COMA income was excluded from our Gathering and Processing segment gross margin, respectively and less than $0.1 million and $0.8 million in COMA income was excluded from our Transmission segment gross margin, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, $0.1 million and $0.6 million in COMA income was excluded from our Gathering and Processing segment gross margin, respectively and less than $0.1 million and $1.6 million in COMA income was excluded from our Transmission segment gross margin, respectively.
(b)
Segment gross margin for our Terminals segment consists of revenue generated from fee-based compensation on guaranteed "take or pay" contracts and throughput fees charged to our customers less direct operating expense which includes direct labor, general materials and supplies and direct overhead.
(c)
(Loss) gain on discontinued operations impacts our Gathering and Processing segment.

Asset information, including capital expenditures, by segment is not included in reports used by our management in their monitoring of performance and therefore is not disclosed.
Subsidiary Guarantors

Subsidiary Guarantors

The Partnership has filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC to register, among other securities, debt securities. The subsidiaries of the Partnership (the "Subsidiaries") will be co-registrants with the Partnership, and the registration statement will register guarantees of debt securities by one or more of the Subsidiaries (other than American Midstream Finance Corporation, a 100% owned subsidiary of the Partnership whose sole purpose is to act as co-issuer of such debt securities). The financial position and operations of the co-issuer are minor and therefore have been included with the Parent's financial information. As of June 30, 2012, the Subsidiaries were 100% owned by the Partnership and any guarantees by the Subsidiaries will be full and unconditional. Beginning July 1, 2012, the Subsidiaries have had an investment in the non-guarantor subsidiaries equal to a 87.4% undivided interest in its Chatom system. The Partnership has no assets or operations independent of the Subsidiaries, and there are no significant restrictions upon the ability of the Subsidiaries to distribute funds to the Partnership. In the event that more than one of the Subsidiaries provide guarantees of any debt securities issued by the Partnership, such guarantees will constitute joint and several obligations. None of the assets of the Partnership or the Subsidiaries represent restricted net assets pursuant to Rule 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. For purposes of the following unaudited condensed consolidating financial information, the Partnership's investments in its Subsidiaries and the guarantor subsidiaries' investment in its 87.4% undivided interest in the Chatom system are presented in accordance with the equity method of accounting. The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows had the subsidiary guarantors operated as independent entities. Condensed consolidating financial information for the Partnership, its combined guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiary as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows (in thousands):

We are required to comply with certain financial covenants and ratios in our credit facility. As of December 31, 2012, the total leverage ratio test, one of the primary financial covenants that we are required to maintain under our credit facility, was not to exceed 4.50 times. At December 31, 2012, our total indebtedness was approximately $130.9 million, which caused our total leverage to EBITDA ratio to be approximately 5.70-to-1. As a result, on December 26, 2012, the Partnership entered into the Third Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement, dated as of December 26, 2012 (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment provided for a waiver of the Partnership's compliance with the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio with respect to the quarter ending December 31, 2012 and for one month thereafter. The Third Amendment also requires the Partnership to provide certain financial and operating information of the Partnership on a monthly basis for 2013 and for any month after 2013 in which the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio of the Partnership is in excess of 4.00 to 1.00. The remaining material terms and conditions of the senior secured revolving credit facility, including pricing, maturity and covenants, remained unchanged by the Third Amendment.
On January 24, 2013, the Partnership entered into the second waiver to the credit facility that extended the waiver period with respect to the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio to March 31, 2013 (and subsequently extended to April 16, 2013). Additional covenants during the waiver period included i) total outstanding borrowings under the credit facility shall not exceed $150.0 million; ii) restrictions on certain acquisitions; iii) an increase to the Eurodollar rate by 0.50%; iv) additional fees of 0.125% of the principal amount on each of February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2013; and v) execution of a compliance certificate.
On April 15, 2013, we repaid approximately $12.5 million in outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement and entered into the Fourth Amendment in connection with the ArcLight Transaction. As a result, we had approximately $130 million of outstanding borrowings as of April 15, 2013 and approximately $45 million of available borrowing capacity as a result of the reduction of our borrowing capacity to a total of $175 million as described below. Until the quarter ending June 30, 2013, we were not required to meet a Consolidated Leverage Ratio under our June 2012 amended credit facility as amended to date. The Fourth Amendment provides for the following:
The consummation of the ArcLight Transactions and the PIK Distribution according to the terms of the Amended Partnership Agreement are permitted;
Commencing on October 1, 2013, the aggregate commitments of the lenders under the credit agreement will be reduced to $175 million unless before such date AIM Midstream Holdings makes an equity contribution to the Partnership of $12.5 million that is used to repay borrowings under the credit facility by October 1, 2013;
The total outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement are limited to $175 million until such equity contribution by AIM Midstream Holdings and debt repayment has occurred, at which time the maximum permitted borrowings under the credit agreement will be raised to $200 million;
The margins relating to our (i) Eurodollar-based loans range from 2.50% to 4.75% depending on the Consolidated Total Leverage ratio then in effect, and (ii) base rate loans range from 1.5% to 3.75%;
The definition of Consolidated Total Indebtedness will not include the Series A Units or certain unsecured surety bonds relating to the High Point Assets;
The definition of Consolidated EBITDA (the consolidated EBITDA for the quarters ending June 30 and September 30, 2013 will be annualized for purposes of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio) will:
include, on a pro forma basis, the consolidated EBITDA of the High Point Subsidiaries as if they were owned by the Partnership beginning on January 1, 2013;
exclude any insurance proceeds attributable to any event occurring prior to January 1, 2013; and
exclude any one-time, non-recurring transaction expenses of the Partnership incurred in connection with the ArcLight Transactions or the Fourth Amendment.
During the period that commenced with the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and that ends with the quarter ending December 31, 2013, unless the Partnership has permanently canceled at least 20% of the number of subordinated units outstanding on April 15, 2013, the Partnership must reduce any quarterly cash distribution on either its subordinated units or Series A Preferred Units (at the Partnership's election) by an aggregate of $0.4 million per quarter, and such reduction may not be replaced by in-kind distributions of Partnership securities;
The maximum Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio permitted as of the end of any fiscal quarter cannot exceed the ratio set forth below:
Fiscal Quarter Ending
Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio
June 30, 2013
5.90:1.00
September 30, 2013

5.50:1.00
December 31, 2014
5.25:1.00
March 31, 2015 and each fiscal quarter thereafter
4.50:1.00


The Partnership agrees to cooperate with and pay the fees and expenses incurred by Bank of America, N.A., the administrative agent for the credit agreement, in connection with its engagement of FTI Consulting to advise and assist it in an assessment of the Partnership's financial condition; and
The lenders permanently waived the Partnership's failure to comply with covenants relating to the Partnership's Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for the quarters ended December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013.

In relation to the credit facility, as of July 31, 2013, we had approximately $131.2 million of outstanding borrowings and approximately $29.7 million of available borrowing capacity as a result of the reduction of our borrowing capacity to a total of $175 million as described herein.

The Partnership believes that the consummation of the ArcLight Transactions will allow it to comply with the Consolidated Total Leverage to EBTIDA ratio in the Fourth Amendment. However, no assurances can be given that the Partnership's results of operations following the ArcLight Transactions will allow us to comply with financial covenants of the Fourth Amendment. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to comply with the financial covenants in the Fourth Amendment and we are not able enter into an agreement to refinance or obtain covenant default waivers, then the outstanding balance under our credit facility could become due and payable upon acceleration by the lenders in our banking group and other agreements with cross-default provisions, if any, could become due. In addition, failure to comply with any of the covenants under our Fourth Amendment could adversely affect our ability to fund ongoing operations and growth capital requirements as well as our ability to pay distributions to our unitholders.

Distribution
On July 23, 2013, we announced a distribution of $0.4325 per unit for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, or $1.73 per unit on an annualized basis, payable on August 14, 2013 to unitholders of record on August 7, 2013 amounting to $3.7 million, net of $0.4 million of distribution foregone by our general partner.

Equity restructuring

Effective August 9, 2013, we executed an equity restructuring agreement with American Midstream GP, LLC, our general partner, the holder of all of the Incentive Distribution Rights, and HPIP, owner of all of the outstanding subordinated units. As part of the equity restructuring agreement, 4.5 million subordinated units and previous Incentive Distribution Rights of the Partnership were combined into, and restructured as a new class of Incentive Distribution Rights (referred to herein as the “new IDRs”).   The transaction, which does not require further consents or approvals, was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of the Partnership, on the unanimous approval and recommendation of its Conflicts Committee, which is composed solely of independent directors.

The equity restructuring permanently eliminates the subordinated units and previous Incentive Distribution Rights of the Partnership in return for the new IDRs.  Prior to completion of the equity restructuring, we were required to pay the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.4125 per unit on the subordinated units, or approximately $2 million per quarter, prior to increasing the quarterly distribution on American Midstream's common units.
 
The prior Incentive Distribution Rights provided for our general partner to receive increasing percentages (ranging from 13 percent to 48 percent) of incremental cash distributions after unitholders of the Partnership (both common and subordinated) received quarterly distributions ranging from $0.47438 per unit to $0.61875 per unit.  The new IDRs entitle our general partner to receive 48 percent of any quarterly cash distributions after common unit holders of the Partnership have received the full minimum quarterly distribution ($0.4125 per unit) for each quarter plus any arrearages from prior quarters (of which there are currently none).  

In conjunction with the equity restructuring, we are entitled to receive $12.5 million that was placed in escrow in conjunction with the acquisition in April 2013 by HPIP of our subordinated units and general partner interests. Once released from escrow, we will use the proceeds to repay borrowings on its credit facility. The former owner of the General Partner commenced legal action against the new majority owner of the General Partner in connection with the equity restructuring.  This legal action may result in a delay of the release of the $12.5 million from escrow.  If a delay occurs, and the delay extends beyond September 30, 2013, the new majority owner of the General Partner has agreed to pay $12.5 million to the Partnership to be used to repay borrowings on its credit facility. Following the release of the $12.5 million from escrow, the former majority owner of the general partner is entitled to receive warrants to purchase 300,000 of the Partnership's common units with a $0.01 per warrant exercise price. The warrants will be exercisable on the later of 18 months from the completion of the equity restructuring or the date that the volume weighted average closing price of the common units exceeds $25.00 for 30 consecutive trading days.

Due to the improvement in distribution coverage resulting from the equity restructuring, management intends to recommend to the board of directors an increase in the quarterly distribution of three percent to five percent beginning with the distribution for the third quarter 2013.
Blackwater acquisition
On October 7, 2013, Blackwater entered into a $12 million term note with a maturity date of December 31, 2013, as well as amendments to their credit agreement. Also on October 7, 2013, Blackwater entered into a $30 million one-year credit agreement with Barclays bank. As part of the Blackwater acquisition these amounts were settled in full and not acquired.
On December 11, 2013, the Partnership and certain of its affiliates entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Barclays Capital Inc. (the “Underwriter”), providing for the issuance and sale by the Partnership, and the purchase by the Underwriter, of 2,400,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (the “Common Units”) at a price to the public of $22.47 per Common Unit (the “Offering”). The Offering of the Common Units was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-183818) (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) that became effective on November 27, 2013, as supplemented by a Prospectus Supplement dated December 13, 2013, as filed with the Commission on December 13, 2013, pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2) of the Securities Act. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Partnership granted the Underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 360,000 Common Units on the same terms as those relating to the Common Units sold by the Partnership in the Offering. The Partnership used the net proceeds of the Offering to fund a portion of the $60 million purchase price for Blackwater.
Effective December 17, 2013, the Partnership completed the Merger of Blackwater, an owner, developer and operator of petroleum, agricultural, and chemical liquid terminal storage facilities.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets (Notes)
Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block]
Goodwill of $16.4 million was contributed to the Partnership as part of the Blackwater acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized and is assessed for impairment annually or more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment may have occurred. Goodwill was recorded as a result of the excess of the investment by ArcLight in Blackwater over the fair market value of the identifiable net assets and customer contracts acquired in 2012 and offset to the calculated deferred tax benefit amount as of March 31, 2013.
Intangible assets, net, consist of customer contracts contributed to the Partnership as part of the Blackwater acquisition. The intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the economic lives of the customer contracts, currently ranging from 5 months to thirty-five months. Intangible assets, net, consist of the following as of June 30, 2013 (in thousands):

Organization and Basis of Presentation (Policies)
Nature of business
American Midstream Partners, LP (the “Partnership”) was formed on August 20, 2009 as a Delaware limited partnership for the purpose of acquiring and operating certain natural gas pipeline and processing businesses. We provide natural gas gathering, treating, processing, fractionating, marketing and transportation services primarily in the Gulf Coast and Southeast regions of the United States. We hold our assets in a series of wholly owned limited liability companies as well as a limited partnership. Our capital accounts consist of general partner interests and limited partner interests.
Our interstate and intrastate natural gas pipeline assets transport natural gas through the FERC regulated natural gas pipelines in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee. Our interstate and intrastate pipelines include:
High Point Gas Transmission, LLC, which owns and operates approximately 400 miles of intrastate pipeline and is connected to 40 meters with 32 active producers and offers processing options at the Toca processing plant with delivery to Southern Natural Gas available downstream of the processing plant in Louisiana;
American Midstream (Midla), LLC, which owns and operates approximately 370 miles of interstate pipeline that runs from the Monroe gas field in northern Louisiana south through Mississippi to Baton Rouge, Louisiana; and
American Midstream (AlaTenn), LLC, which owns and operates approximately 295 miles of interstate pipeline that runs through the Tennessee River Valley from Selmer, Tennessee to Huntsville, Alabama and serves an eight-county area in Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee.
ArcLight Transactions
On April 15, 2013, the Partnership, our general partner and AIM Midstream Holdings, LLC ("AIM"), an affiliate of American Infrastructure MLP Fund, entered into agreements (the "ArcLight Transactions") with High Point Infrastructure Partners, LLC ("HPIP"), an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC, pursuant to which HPIP (i) acquired 90% of our general partner and all of our subordinated units from AIM and (ii) contributed certain midstream assets and $15.0 million in cash to us in exchange for 5,142,857 newly issued convertible preferred units (the “Series A Units”) issued by the Partnership.  Of the $15.0 million cash consideration paid by High Point, approximately $2.5 million was used to pay certain transaction expenses of High Point, and the remaining approximately $12.5 million was used to repay borrowings outstanding under the Partnership's credit facility in connection with the Fourth Amendment. As a result of these transactions, which were also consummated on April 15, 2013, HPIP acquired both control of our general partner and a majority of our outstanding limited partner interests.  The midstream assets contributed by HPIP consist of approximately 600 miles of natural gas and liquids pipeline assets located in southeast Louisiana and the shallow water and deep shelf Gulf of Mexico (commonly referred to as the "High Point system"). The High Point system gathers natural gas from both onshore and offshore producing regions around southeast Louisiana. The onshore footprint is in Plaquemines and St. Bernard's Parishes, LA. The offshore footprint consists of the following federal Gulf of Mexico zones: Mississippi Canyon, Viosca Knoll, West Delta, Main Pass, South Pass and Breton Sound. Natural gas is collected at more than 75 receipt points that connect to hundreds of wells targeting various geological zones in water depths up to 1,000 feet, with an emphasis on oil and liquids-rich reservoirs. The High Point system is comprised of FERC-regulated transmission assets and non-jurisdictional assets, both of which accept natural gas from well production and interconnected pipeline systems. Natural gas is delivered to the Toca Gas Processing Plant, operated by Enterprise, where the products are processed and the residue gas sent to an unaffiliated interstate system owned by Kinder Morgan. See Note 3 "Acquisitions and Divestitures" for further information.
The Partnership believes that the consummation of the ArcLight Transactions will allow it to comply with the Consolidated Total Leverage to EBTIDA ratio in the Fourth Amendment to our June 2012 amended credit agreement ("Fourth Amendment"). However, no assurances can be given that the Partnership's results of operations following the ArcLight Transactions will allow us to comply with financial covenants of the Fourth Amendment. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to comply with the financial covenants in the Fourth Amendment and we are not able enter into an agreement to refinance or obtain covenant default waivers, then the outstanding balance under our credit facility could become due and payable upon acceleration by the lenders in our banking group and other agreements with cross-default provisions, if any, could become due. In addition, failure to comply with any of the covenants under our Fourth Amendment could adversely affect our ability to fund ongoing operations and growth capital requirements as well as our ability to pay distributions to our unitholders. See Note 19 "Liquidity" for further information.
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include disclosures required by GAAP for annual periods. We have made reclassifications to amounts reported in prior period condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to our current year presentation. These reclassifications did not have an impact on net income for the period previously reported. The information furnished herein reflects all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of financial position as of June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, statement of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, statement of changes in partners’ capital and noncontrolling interest for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, and statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Our financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2013. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (“Annual Report”) filed on April 16, 2013.
Consolidation Policy
Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest. We hold an undivided interest in the Burns Point gas processing facility in which we are responsible for our proportionate share of the costs and expenses of the facility. Our consolidated financial statements reflect our proportionate share of the revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities of this undivided interest. In July 2012, the Partnership acquired a 87.4% undivided interest in the Chatom Processing and Fractionation facility (the "Chatom system"). Our consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Chatom system since acquisition, and the interests in the Chatom system held by non-affiliated working interest owners are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the Partnership's consolidated financial statements
Use of Estimates
When preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions based on information available at the time. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Estimates and judgments are based on information available at the time such estimates and judgments are made. Adjustments made with respect to the use of these estimates and judgments often relate to information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and judgments are inherent in the preparation of financial statements. Estimates and judgments are used in, among other things (1) estimating unbilled revenues, product purchases and operating and general and administrative costs, (2) developing fair value assumptions, including estimates of future cash flows and discount rates, (3) analyzing long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets for possible impairment, (4) estimating the useful lives of assets and (5) determining amounts to accrue for contingencies, guarantees and indemnifications. Actual results, therefore, could differ materially from estimated amounts

(a)
Segment gross margin for our Gathering and Processing segment consists of revenue, realized gain (loss) on commodity derivatives less construction, operating and maintenance agreement (“COMA”) income, less purchases of natural gas, NGLs and condensate (inclusive, of gross margin from discontinued operations). Segment gross margin for our Transmission segment consists of revenue, less COMA income, less purchases of natural gas. Gross margin consists of the sum of the segment gross margin amounts for each of these segments. As an indicator of our operating performance, gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our gross margin may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate gross margin in the same manner. Effective October 1, 2012, we changed our segment gross margin measure to exclude COMA income. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, $0.1 million and $0.1 million in COMA income was excluded from our Gathering and Processing segment gross margin, respectively and less than $0.1 million and $0.8 million in COMA income was excluded from our Transmission segment gross margin, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, $0.1 million and $0.6 million in COMA income was excluded from our Gathering and Processing segment gross margin, respectively and less than $0.1 million and $1.6 million in COMA income was excluded from our Transmission segment gross margin, respectively.
(b)
Segment gross margin for our Terminals segment consists of revenue generated from fee-based compensation on guaranteed "take or pay" contracts and throughput fees charged to our customers less direct operating expense which includes direct labor, general materials and supplies and direct overhead.

[1] Segment gross margin for our Gathering and Processing segment consists of revenue, realized gain (loss) on commodity derivatives less construction, operating and maintenance agreement (“COMA”) income, less purchases of natural gas, NGLs and condensate (inclusive, of gross margin from discontinued operations). Segment gross margin for our Transmission segment consists of revenue, less COMA income, less purchases of natural gas. Gross margin consists of the sum of the segment gross margin amounts for each of these segments. As an indicator of our operating performance, gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our gross margin may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate gross margin in the same manner. Effective October 1, 2012, we changed our segment gross margin measure to exclude COMA income. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, $0.1 million and $0.1 million in COMA income was excluded from our Gathering and Processing segment gross margin, respectively and less than $0.1 million and $0.8 million in COMA income was excluded from our Transmission segment gross margin, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, $0.1 million and $0.6 million in COMA income was excluded from our Gathering and Processing segment gross margin, respectively and less than $0.1 million and $1.6 million in COMA income was excluded from our Transmission segment gross margin, respectively.
