Read MoreHide Full Article
Enbridge Energy Partners L.P. reported third-quarter 2017 adjusted earnings of 24 cents per unit, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny. The miss was mainly led by lower income from segments.
The bottom line, however, increased from the year-ago level of 9 cents.
Total revenues in the quarter were $616 million, down from the year-ago level of $1,120.6 million.
Enbridge Energy, L.P. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Liquids: Adjusted operating income at the Liquids segment declined to $282.1 million from $304 million in the comparable period of 2016. The downside was due to reduced short-haul transportation volumes resulting from the expiration of the Phase 5 and Phase 6 expansion surcharges of the Berthold rail loading facility on the North Dakota system.
Other: The Natural Gas unit reported operating loss of $1.7 million compared with an operating loss of $2.3 million in the year-ago quarter.

Enbridge Energy declared a quarterly cash distribution of 35 cents or $1.40 per unit on an annualized basis for the quarter ended Sep 30, 2017.
