2 2 Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities law. Words such as anticipates, believes, expects, intends, will, should, may, estimates, and similar expressions may be used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact and reflect Noble Midstream Partners LP s (Noble Midstream or the Partnership) current views about future events. No assurances can be given that the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation will occur as projected and actual results may differ materially from those projected. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and assumptions that involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include, without limitation, our customers ability to meet their drilling and development plans, changes in general economic conditions, competitive conditions in the Partnership s industry, actions taken by third-party operators, gatherers, processors and transporters, the demand for crude oil and natural gas gathering and processing services, the Partnership s ability to successfully implement its business plan, the Partnership s ability to complete internal growth projects on time and on budget, the ability of third parties to complete construction of pipelines in which the Partnership holds equity interests on time and on budget, the price and availability of debt and equity financing, the availability and price of crude oil and natural gas to the consumer compared to the price of alternative and competing fuels, and other risks inherent in the Partnership s business, including those described under Risk Factors and Forward-Looking Statements in the Partnership's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other reports on we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These reports are also available from the Partnership s office or website,. Forward-looking statements are based on the estimates and opinions of management at the time the statements are made. Noble Midstream does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances, management s estimates, or opinions change. This presentation also contains certain non-gaap measures of financial performance that management believes are good tools for internal use and the investment community in evaluating Noble Midstream s overall financial performance. Please see slides 28 and 29 for definitions and reconciliations of the non-gaap financial measures used in this presentation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

28 28 Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Distribution Coverage Ratio, Annualized Leverage Ratio and ROACE, all of which are non-gaap measures which may be used periodically by management when discussing our financial results with investors and analysts. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before income taxes, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization and unit-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, industry analysts, lenders and ratings agencies, to assess: our operating performance as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing methods, historical cost basis or capital structure; the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our partners; our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities. We define Distributable Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less estimated maintenance capital expenditures and cash interest expense. Distributable Cash Flow is used by management to evaluate our overall performance. Our partnership agreement requires us to distribute all cash on a quarterly basis, and Distributable Cash Flow is one of the factors used by the board of directors of our general partner to help determine the amount of available cash that is available to our unitholders for a given period. We calculate our Distribution Coverage Ratio as Distributable Cash Flow divided by total distributions declared. The Distribution Coverage Ratio is used by management to illustrate our ability to make our distributions each quarter. We define ROACE as earnings before interest and taxes divided by (average total assets average current liabilities). ROACE is used by management to measure the efficiency of the utilization of the capital that we employ. We define Annualized Leverage Ratio as total debt divided by quarterly adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Partnership, annualized for four quarters. Annualized Leverage Ratio is used by management to assess our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Distribution Coverage Ratio, Annualized Leverage Ratio and ROACE provide information useful to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Distribution Coverage Ratio, Annualized Leverage Ratio and ROACE is Net Income. Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Distribution Coverage Ratio, Annualized Leverage Ratio and ROACE should not be considered alternatives to net income or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Distribution Coverage Ratio, Annualized Leverage Ratio and ROACE exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income, and these measures may vary from those of other companies. As a result, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Distribution Coverage Ratio, Annualized Leverage Ratio and ROACE as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Noble Midstream does not provide guidance on the reconciling items between forecasted Net Income, forecasted Adjusted EBITDA, forecasted Distributable Cash Flow and forecasted Distribution Coverage Ratio due to the uncertainty regarding timing and estimates of these items. Noble Midstream provides a range for the forecasts of Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio to allow for the variability in timing and uncertainty of estimates of reconciling items between forecasted Net Income, forecasted Adjusted EBITDA, forecasted Distributable Cash Flow and forecasted Distribution Coverage Ratio. Therefore, the Partnership cannot reconcile forecasted Net Income to forecasted Adjusted EBITDA, forecasted Distributable Cash Flow or forecasted Distribution Coverage Ratio without unreasonable effort. In addition to Net Income, the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow is net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered alternatives to net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Due to the forward-looking nature of net cash provided by operating activities, management cannot reliably predict certain of the necessary components of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, such as future impairments and future changes in working capital. Accordingly, Noble Midstream is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-gaap financial measures to net cash provided by operating activities. Amounts excluded from these non-gaap measures in future periods could be significant.
