Enable Midstream Partners, LP
First Quarter 2015 Conference Call
May 6, 2015
Forward-looking Statements
This presentation and the oral statements made in connection herewith may contain “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of the securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, regarding Enable Midstream Partners’
(“Enable”) strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of
management are forward-looking statements. These statements often include the words “could,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “forecast” and similar expressions and are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although
not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on Enable’s current
expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of
future events. Enable assumes no obligation to and does not intend to update any forward-looking statements included
herein. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements
described under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our SEC filings. Enable cautions you that these forward-looking statements
are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond its control,
incident to the ownership, operation and development of natural gas and crude oil infrastructure assets. These risks include, but
are not limited to, contract renewal risk, commodity price risk, environmental risks, operating risks, regulatory changes and the other
risks described under “Risk Factors” in our SEC filings. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, Enable’s actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Partnership has included the non-GAAP financial measures gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow
in this presentation based on information in its condensed combined and consolidated financial statements.
Gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are supplemental financial measures that management and
external users of the Partnership’s financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies may use,
to assess:
• The Partnership’s operating performance as compared to those of other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy
industry, without regard to capital structure or historical cost basis;
• The ability of the Partnership’s assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to its partners;
• The Partnership’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
• The viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment
opportunities.
The appendix to this presentation includes a reconciliation of gross margin to revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash
flow to net income attributable to controlling interest, and Adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by operating activities, the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures, on a historical basis, as applicable, for each of the periods indicated. The
Partnership believes that the presentation of gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow provides information useful
to investors in assessing its financial condition and results of operations. Gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash
flow should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, revenue, cash from operations or any other measure
of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash
flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect the most directly
comparable GAAP measures. Additionally, because gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined
differently by other companies in the Partnership’s industry, its definitions of gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash
flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

Current Market Update
Many plays across Enable’s footprint continue to provide strong returns for producers, including
the Bakken, SCOOP and Cana Woodford plays
►
►
Production in these plays drives growth across Enable’s value chain – from building more gathering and
processing capacity to holding an open season for expansion of interstate transportation
►
The Haynesville Shale is starting to see growing natural gas output again1, despite low natural gas prices,
as drilling costs decline and new demand develops in Gulf Coast markets
End-user opportunities continue to develop on and around our transportation systems driven by
lower gas prices, including recent announcements of new natural gas-fired power generation
►
►
Natural gas consumption in the power sector is projected to grow by 11.5% in 2015 and the industrial sector
consumption to increase by 4.9% in 20152
►
Contango in natural gas markets is increasing the value of natural gas storage
►
Approximately 227 rigs are currently operating in the counties in which Enable operates or is
constructing assets as of April 29, 2015, a decrease of approximately 119 rigs since February 13,
20153
The largest decline is in the Bakken where Enable’s anchor customer, XTO Energy, still remains active
►
Enable has seen trends of producers maintaining current drilling schedules in core plays and continuing with
drilling after initially reducing plans
Enable expects that changing markets and supply dynamics will continue to create opportunities

►
Underpinned with a long-term dedication from an
anchor producer of approximately 35,000 net
acres and allows Enable to target additional third
party producers
►
System includes approximately 88 miles of
recently built gathering pipeline and more than
5,000 horsepower of compression

2015 Outlook
Gathering, compression and processing infrastructure to support projected volume growth from current contracts and
acreage dedications, including infrastructure in the SCOOP, Bakken and Greater Granite Wash plays
Identified Opportunities include transportation and G&P projects in late-stage negotiation, such as:
►
Additional Bakken crude gathering expansions
►
Anadarko gas gathering and processing expansions
►
New end-user transportation service and market access pipeline opportunities
►
NGL transportation infrastructure
Commodity Exposure
►
Enable targets fee-based contracts on a firm basis, when possible
►
Some gathering and processing contracts have provisions to protect against low
commodity price environments and volume decreases
►
Commodity sensitivities for second quarter 2015 through fourth quarter 2015, including the
impact of hedges:
►
A 10% increase or decrease in the price of natural gas from forecasted levels would result in an increase or decrease
of approximately $6 million in gross margin
►
A 10% increase or decrease in the price of NGLs and condensate from forecasted levels would result in an increase
or decrease of approximately $1 million in gross margin
