Tallgrass
Energy Partners Increases Quarterly Distribution for Sixth Consecutive
Quarter to $0.485, an 18.3% Increase over Third Quarter 2014
LEAWOOD, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 5, 2015--Tallgrass Energy
Partners, LP (NYSE: TEP) announced today that the board of directors of
its general partner declared a quarterly cash distribution to partners
of $0.485 per common unit for the fourth quarter of 2014, or $1.94 on an
annualized basis. This represents a 54 percent increase from the fourth
quarter of 2013 and an 18.3 percent sequential increase from the third
quarter 2014 distribution of $0.41. It is TEP’s sixth consecutive
increase since its IPO in May 2013.
In addition, the distribution increase of $0.075 is 7 percent higher
than the minimum increase management had expected to recommend for the
fourth quarter as a result of the September acquisition of a 33.3
percent interest in the Tallgrass Pony Express Pipeline.
The quarterly distribution will be paid on Friday, February 13, 2015, to
unitholders of record as of the close of business on Monday, January 26,
2015.
