Hi-Crush Partners LP produces and supplies monocrystalline sand in the United States. The monocrystalline sand is a mineral that is used as a propant to enhance the recovery rates of hydrocarbons from oil and natural gas wells. It owns, operates, and develops sand reserves and related excavation and processing facilities. Hi-Crush Partners MLP was founded in 2012 and is based in Houston, Texas.
A Master Limited Partnership (MLP) is a type of limited partnership that is publicly traded. MLP’s receive the same tax benefits of a limited partnership combined with the liquidity of a publically traded security. In order to be classified as an MLP the partnership must receive 90% of its cash flow from a “qualifying source” – such as real estate, natural resources or commodities.
MLP’s are extremely complex and risky. They are only suitable for wealthy, sophisticated retail investors or institutional investors.
Distributions in the Hi-Crush Partners LP came to a halt in Q3 of 2015 and of course the biggest risk to Hi-Crush Partners is energy prices remaining low, or even falling further, and failing to recover sufficiently by early 2017 to reignite demand for frack sand. For more on this, see Update: Hi-Crush Partners, LP.
On August 10th, Hi-Crush Partners LP announced that it has priced a primary public offering of 6,500,000 units representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership for total gross proceeds of approximately $80.3 million. In connection with the offering, the Partnership granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 975,000 common units on the same terms.
According to the press release, the Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to fund a portion of the purchase price of the previously announced acquisition of Hi-Crush Blair LLC.
