Non-GAAP Reconciliations

Non-GAAP Reconciliations Non-GAAP Disclaimer > This presentation includes certain financial measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income ( earnings ), adjusted earnings per share, cash available for dividends, dividend coverage ratio, distributable cash flow and cash distribution coverage ratio that are non-gaap financial measures as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. > Our segment performance measure, modified EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before income (loss) from discontinued operations, income tax expense, net interest expense, equity earnings from equity-method investments, other net investing income, remeasurement gain on equity-method investment, impairment of equity investments and goodwill, depreciation and amortization expense, and accretion expense associated with asset retirement obligations for nonregulated operations. We also add our proportional ownership share (based on ownership interest) of modified EBITDA of equity-method investments. > Adjusted EBITDA further excludes items of income or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations and may include assumed business interruption insurance related to the Geismar plant. Management believes this measure provides investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations. > For Williams, cash available for dividends is defined as cash received from its ownership in MLPs, cash received (used) by its NGL & Petchem Services segment (other than cash for capital expenditures) less interest, taxes and maintenance capital expenditures associated with Williams and not the underlying MLPs. We also calculate the ratio of cash available for dividends to the total cash dividends paid (dividend coverage ratio). This measure reflects Williams cash available for dividends relative to its actual cash dividends paid. We further adjust these metrics to include Williams proportionate share of WPZ s distributable cash flow in excess of distributions paid, resulting in Williams Economic DCF and Economic Coverage Ratio. > For Williams Partners L.P., we define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA less maintenance capital expenditures, cash portion of interest expense, income attributable to noncontrolling interests and cash income taxes plus WPZ restricted stock unit non-cash compensation and certain other adjustments that management believes affects the comparability of results. Adjustments for maintenance capital expenditures and cash portion of interest expense include our proportionate share of these items of our equitymethod investments. > For Williams Partners L.P., we also calculate the ratio of distributable cash flow to the total cash distributed (cash distribution coverage ratio). This measure reflects the amount of distributable cash flow relative to our cash distribution. We have also provided this ratio calculated using the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income. > This presentation is accompanied by a reconciliation of these non-gaap financial measures to their nearest GAAP financial measures. Management uses these financial measures because they are accepted financial indicators used by investors to compare company performance. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of assets and the cash that the business is generating. > Neither adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income, cash available for dividends, nor distributable cash flow are intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor are they presented as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. 18 Williams and Williams Partners 4Q 2016 Earnings Release February 16, 2016 2017 The Williams Companies, Inc.
