		<description><![CDATA[We maintain our Outperform recommendation for Spectra Energy Corp. (SE) shares following better-than-expected third quarter 2011 results. The out-performance was driven by strong growth from expansion projects, higher commodity prices and a stronger Canadian dollar. With third-quarter results showing an improvement, management remains optimistic about the company&#8217;s performance going forward and looks to deliver or exceed its full-year earnings per share forecast of $1.65. It also remains focused on investing more than $5 billion in expansion capital over the next five years. With a market-leading position and strong investment opportunities, we expect Spectra to sustain its growth momentum. Our $35 price objective reflects a 2012 P/E multiple of 18.4x, which is trading at the upper end of the historical range.

The company also guided 2012–2013 adjusted earnings per share and cash flow from continuing operations, taking into account the upcoming Exploration &#38; Production spin-off and the related exclusion of those results from Williams’ continuing operations. In February 2011, Williams announced plans to separate its exploration and production business from its pipeline/infrastructure operations, thereby creating two independent companies. The spin-off, subject to certain precedent conditions, will see the sale of up to 20% of Williams’ stake in the exploration and production business through an initial public offering. The rest of the upstream business will be spun off to Williams’ shareholders next year. Williams expects to generate earnings per share in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Plains All American Pipeline LP (PAA) maintained its strong performance from the first quarter, with its revenues increasing across the board. Going forward, the partnership expects the strong performance to continue into the second half of 2011, and therefore raised its EBITDA forecast for 2011. This bullishness has also prompted analysts to raise their estimates for this year. The 2011 Zacks Consensus Estimate has risen to $4.22 from $3.85 in the last 30 days. We believe the partnership&#8217;s low-risk and stable revenue stream will continue to give its earnings and cash flows a high degree of certainty. Also, the partnership&#8217;s strong balance sheet provides ample flexibility for higher distributions to unitholders along with pursuing its internal and acquisition-oriented growth projects. We move to an Outperform recommendation for PAA. Zacks Investment ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Buoyed by a robust operating performance and favorable growth prospects, we are upgrading Sunoco Logistics Partners, LP (SXL) to Outperform from Neutral. Recent results for Sunoco Logistics have been driven by strength in its crude pipeline system and terminals facilities. Importantly, the partnership has grown its cash distribution for twenty-five consecutive quarters. With its stable fee-based revenue, geographically-diverse assets and strong business fundamentals, Sunoco Logistics offers investors an opportunity to capture income growth through steadily-rising cash distributions and capital appreciation. Therefore, we are confident of the partnership&#8217;s total return potential.

		<description><![CDATA[Pipeline operator Energy Transfer Partners L.P. (ETP) announced disappointing second quarter 2011 results, hurt by lower natural gas volumes and higher operating expenses. The owner of the biggest intrastate pipeline system in Texas reported earnings per unit of 19 cents, which came in way below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 30 cents. However, earnings improved remarkably from the year-ago loss of 26 cents. Quarterly revenues of $1,628.1 million missed our projection of $1,787.0 million. Comparing year over year, sales shot up 28.4% from $1,267.7 million, attributed to higher transportation fees related to the Tiger pipeline. Quarterly Cash Distribution Last month, Energy Transfer announced second quarter distribution of 89.375 cents per unit ($3.575 per unit annualized), which remains unchanged from the year-earlier and previous quarter distributions. The distribution is payable on ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pipeline operator Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (MMP) announced better-than-expected second quarter 2011 profits, aided by contributions from recently-completed acquisitions and expansion projects. The Tulsa, Oklahoma-based oil distributor reported earnings per unit (EPU) of 91 cents (excluding mark-to-market commodity-related pricing adjustments), surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 83 cents and the year-ago adjusted profit of 86 cents. However, total revenues, at $383.3 million, were down 9.4% year over year and were also below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $440.0 million. The negative comparisons can be attributed to lower product sales. Quarterly Distribution Recently, Magellan raised its second quarter 2011 cash distribution by 2.0% sequentially and 7.2% year over year to 78.50 cents per unit ($3.14 per unit annualized). The cash distribution is up 199% since its initial public offering (IPO) in ]]></description>

(ETP) based on its growth momentum, which is aided by acquisitions and joint ventures, strong volume expansion and modest price increases. These positive aspects are somewhat diluted by the challenging macro environment, weak natural gas fundamentals and cost overruns on development projects. In the first quarter of 2011, Energy Transfer gave a disappointing performance, with earnings per unit of 71 cents coming in below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.03 and 74 cents in the year-ago quarter. Revenue of $1,687.6 million was down 9.9% year over year and missed our projection by 19.1%. The partnership also reported lower distributable cash flows of $337.1 million in the quarter (compared with $384.6 million in the prior-year quarter), hurt by collapsing ]]></description>

The credit facilities of both EP and EPEP are set to expire in 2012. El Paso Corp. amended and restated its revolving credit facility extending the maturity date to 2016 and reducing the available commitments to $1.25 billion from $1.5 billion. Moreover, EP’s facility credit terms now provide more flexibility on collateral support and El Paso Corporation&#8217;s general partnership interest in EPB as collateral. It also provides for an elimination of collateral support upon the loans achieving investment grade status. The EP facility was financed through a syndication of 23 financial institutions.

(EEP) reported first-quarter 2011 earnings of 31 cents per unit, well below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 38 cents and the year-earlier profit of 37 cents. Results were lower than expected mainly due to higher operating costs in liquids and natural gas segments. These were partially compensated by additional revenues from liquid pipelines resulting from incremental volumes and rates associated with Alberta Clipper Pipeline. Total revenue in the quarter surged more than 18% year over year to $2.29 billion, faring better than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.09 billion. Importantly, Enbridge declared a cash distribution rate of 51.375 cents per unit ($2.055 per unit annualized) during the quarter.

The owner and operator of crude oil and refined products pipelines and storage facilities reported earnings per unit (EPU) of 40 cents (excluding the effect of early termination cost and other smaller items), comfortably surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 33 cents and way above the year-ago profit of 19 cents. Revenue of $1,234.6 million surpassed our expectation of $961 million and was 30.6% above the year-earlier level. Quarterly Distribution NuStar announced a quarterly distribution of $1.075 per unit ($4.30 per unit annualized), representing a 0.9% increase over the year-earlier quarter and equal to the fourth quarter 2010 distribution.

The company reported operating revenues of $1,612 million, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1,611 million and improving from the year-earlier level of $1,480 million. Operational Analysis U.S.Transmission: The segment posted quarterly earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $279 million, compared with $247 million in the year-ago quarter.

		<description><![CDATA[We maintain our Neutral recommendation on Spectra Energy Corporation (SE) given its impressive fourth quarter results, continued organic investments, healthy natural gas liquid (NGL) fundamentals, new prospects as well as a revival in the economy. However, we remain concerned about the low natural gas price environment. Last quarter, the company reported better-than-expected results owing to solid growth from expansion projects that came online, higher commodity prices and a stronger Canadian dollar. Spectra plans to deploy $1 billion annually through 2015 on fee-based gas infrastructure growth projects, which we expect to meet or beat Spectra’s targeted 10–12% return on capital employed. Notably, with these significant investments, Spectra expects to see annual operating income in the range of $500 million to $600 million. Importantly, the company expects its adjusted earnings guidance to ]]></description>

The oil pipeline and storage partnership has seen its unit price climb approximately 26% since the end of August last year, as investors have been buying the stock for its attractive fundamentals and positive outlook.

However, the delays and cost overruns at the Ruby pipeline project have hindered the company’s near-term outlook.

		<description><![CDATA[We are maintaining our Neutral recommendation on Enbridge Energy Partners, L.P. (EEP), given its fee-based and diversified businesses, along with its increased exposure to the Bakken Shale, the Haynesville Shale and Granite Wash. This is partially offset by the lower-than-expected results in the fourth quarter of 2010. Enbridge is engaged in the gathering, processing and transmission of natural gas and crude oil and is best known for its ownership of the Lakehead System, one of the world’s longest petroleum pipeline systems. The partnership’s focus on fee-based and diversified businesses has enabled it to dilute its business risks, as well as provide a stable and steadily growing earnings profile. We also remain positive on Enbridge given its increased exposure to the Bakken Shale, the Haynesville Shale and Granite Wash. For this year, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pipeline operator Energy Transfer Partners L.P. (ETP) announced in-line fourth quarter results, as improved sales from its retail propane segment were offset by weakness in its natural gas transportation operations. The owner of the biggest intrastate pipeline system in Texas reported earnings per unit of 65 cents, same as the Zacks Consensus Estimate but below the year-ago profit of 91 cents. Revenues of $1,454 5 million were down 3.4% year-over-year and missed our projection by 21.3%. Quarterly Cash Distribution Last month, Energy Transfer announced fourth quarter distribution of 89.375 cents per unit ($3.575 per unit annualized), which remains unchanged from the year-earlier quarter and the previous quarter distribution.

(ETP) – a master limited partnership (“MLP”) – announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010. Now that the analysts have had some time to ponder upon the quarterly performance of Energy Transfer, they are weighing in their estimate revisions. Below we cover the results of the recent earnings announcement, subsequent analyst estimate revisions and Zacks ratings for the outlook. Earnings Review On November 9, 2010, Energy Transfer announced disappointing third quarter results, pulled down by a weakness in its ‘Intrastate’ segment on the back of a pipeline outage, partially offset by robust propane margins. The pipeline operator&#8217;s earnings per unit came in at 5 cents, well below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 21 cents, while revenues of $1.3 ]]></description>

This brings the partnership’s annualized distribution to $4.52 per unit. The distribution will be paid on November 12, 2010 to unit holders of record as of October 29, 2010.

These investments have enabled the partnership to expand its operating footprint, meet customer demands and at the same time enhance unitholder value by increasing returns. ONEOK Partners expects similar distribution increases in 2010, given the ramp-up of production at various projects. ONEOK Partners’ distribution increase is consistent with ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Alexander Moschina, Investment U Research Thursday, August 19, 2010 Just because a company is selling off its assets doesn’t mean disaster is afoot. Sometimes it’s just a move to free-up capital for growth projects. That’s the case with Atlas Pipeline Partners, LP (NYSE: APL). The Pennsylvania gas company recently announced that it’s selling its Elk City, Oklahoma facility for $682 million. That kind of news usually sends investors running for the exits. But instead, Atlas shares blasted higher. You see, the company isn’t selling off its Elk City operations in order to tap “emergency” funds.
