Brookfield Business Partners L.P. (NYSE: BBU) (TSX: BBU.UN)
(“Brookfield Business Partners”) announced today financial results
for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
“The unprecedented impact of the COVID-19
pandemic has dramatically altered the global economic landscape. In
light of this our focus has been on protecting the health and
safety of our people and partners around the world, while working
closely with our management teams to support our operations and
maximize liquidity. We are also cautiously considering new
investment opportunities," said Cyrus Madon, CEO of Brookfield
Business Partners. “Although we are planning for a very weak
business environment through the rest of the year, BBU has
substantial liquidity and businesses that are high-quality
providers of essential products and services. We are well
positioned to manage through an expected period of severe economic
disruption."

Brookfield Business Partners generated Company
EBITDA of $294 million for the three months ended March 31,
2020 compared to $266 million for the three months ending
March 31, 2019 reflecting incremental contributions from
recent acquisitions partially offset by the impact of the current
crisis on certain of our businesses. For the three months ended
March 31, 2020 Company FFO was $194 million ($1.29 per unit)
compared to $205 million ($1.59 per unit) for the three months
ended March 31, 2019. Net loss attributable to unitholders for
the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $126
million (loss of $0.84 per unit) and included unrealized mark
to market loss on financial assets, provisions and impairments
recognized during the quarter, compared to net income attributable
to unitholders of $62 million ($0.48 per unit) for the three months
ended March 31, 2019.

Our business services segment
generated Company EBITDA of $19 million during the three months
ended March 31, 2020, compared to Company EBITDA of $45
million in the same period in 2019. Company EBITDA for the first
quarter 2020 reflects the impact of losses at our construction
services operations as a result of accounting for increased costs
expected to be incurred on projects in the U.K. where construction
works were substantially shut-down as a result of the pandemic.
Results benefited from contributions by Healthscope, Ouro Verde and
Genworth Canada, which we acquired during 2019. Prior year results
included contributions from our facilities management and executive
relocation businesses which were sold in the second quarter of
2019.
Our infrastructure services
segment generated Company EBITDA of $156 million during the three
months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $135 million in the
same period in 2019. Results benefited from the incremental
contribution from BrandSafway, a provider of work access
scaffolding solutions, acquired in January 2020. Contribution from
Altera Infrastructure increased due to our increased ownership.
Westinghouse performed well in the quarter benefiting from the
resiliency of its core fuel manufacturing and servicing operations
and continued progress on new plant projects that Westinghouse is
supporting.
Our industrials segment
generated Company EBITDA of $145 million during the three months
ended March 31, 2020, compared to $107 million in the same
period in 2019. Results benefited from the incremental contribution
from Clarios which we acquired in April 2019, partially offset by a
lower contribution from GrafTech primarily due to lower sales
volumes in the business, and a negative impact from Cardone, a
manufacturer of automotive replacement parts. Prior year results
included the contribution from our Canadian palladium producer
which was sold in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Company FFO for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 was $194 million compared to $205 million in
the same period in 2019. The decrease in Company FFO reflects the
impact of reduced performance at select businesses due to the
pandemic, and businesses sold in 2019, partially offset by
incremental contributions from recent acquisitions.
Liquidity
We ended the quarter with approximately $2.0
billion of liquidity at the corporate level including $241 million
of cash and liquid securities and $1.8 billion of undrawn credit
facilities. Our companies have an additional approximately $4
billion of liquidity comprised of cash and available credit
facilities to fund themselves through this downturn.
Unit Repurchase Program
For the three months ended March 31, 2020
we repurchased 382,920 of BBU units under our normal course issuer
bid (NCIB).
Distribution
The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly
distribution in the amount of $0.0625 per unit, payable on June 30,
2020 to unitholders of record as at the close of business on May
29, 2020.

Cautionary Statement Regarding
Forward-looking Statements and Information
Note: This news release contains
“forward-looking information” within the meaning of Canadian
provincial securities laws and “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and in any applicable
Canadian securities regulations. Forward-looking statements include
statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to
future events or conditions, include statements regarding the
operations, business, financial condition, expected financial
results, performance, prospects, opportunities, priorities,
targets, goals, ongoing objectives, strategies and outlook of
Brookfield Business Partners, as well as the outlook for North
American and international economies for the current fiscal year
and subsequent periods, and include words such as “expects,”
“anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “seeks,”
“intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “forecasts” or negative versions
thereof and other similar expressions, or future or conditional
verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would” and “could.”
Although we believe that our anticipated future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the
forward-looking statements and information are based upon
reasonable assumptions and expectations, the reader should not
place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and information
because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors, many of which are beyond our control, which may
cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Brookfield
Business Partners to differ materially from anticipated future
results, performance or achievement expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements and information.
Factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those contemplated or implied by
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the
impact or unanticipated impact of general economic, political and
market factors in the countries in which we do business; including
as a result of the recent novel coronavirus outbreak (“COVID-19”);
the behavior of financial markets, including fluctuations in
interest and foreign exchange rates; global equity and capital
markets and the availability of equity and debt financing and
refinancing within these markets; strategic actions including
dispositions; the ability to complete and effectively integrate
acquisitions into existing operations and the ability to attain
expected benefits; changes in accounting policies and methods used
to report financial condition (including uncertainties associated
with critical accounting assumptions and estimates); the ability to
appropriately manage human capital; the effect of applying future
accounting changes; business competition; operational and
reputational risks; technological change; changes in government
regulation and legislation within the countries in which we
operate; governmental investigations; litigation; changes in tax
laws; ability to collect amounts owed; catastrophic events, such as
earthquakes; hurricanes and pandemics/epidemics; the possible
impact of international conflicts and other developments including
terrorist acts and cyber terrorism; and other risks and factors
detailed from time to time in our documents filed with the
securities regulators in Canada and the United States.
In addition, our future results may be impacted
by COVID-19 and the related global reduction in commerce and travel
and substantial volatility in stock markets worldwide, which may
result in a decrease of cash flows and impairment losses and/or
revaluations on our investments and assets, and we may be unable to
achieve our expected returns. See “Risks Associated with the
COVID-19 Pandemic” in the “Risks and Uncertainties” section
included in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations for the first quarter ended
March 31, 2020 to be made available.
We caution that the foregoing list of important
factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive. When
relying on our forward-looking statements, investors and others
should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other
uncertainties and potential events. Except as required by law,
Brookfield Business Partners undertakes no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements or information,
whether written or oral, that may be as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.
Cautionary Statement Regarding the Use
of Non-IFRS Measures
This news release contains references to
Non-IFRS Measures. When determining Company FFO and Company EBITDA,
we include our unitholders’ proportionate share of Company FFO and
Company EBITDA for equity accounted investments. Company FFO and
Company EBITDA are not generally accepted accounting measures under
IFRS and therefore may differ from definitions used by other
entities. We believe these metrics are useful supplemental measures
that may assist investors in assessing the financial performance of
Brookfield Business Partners and its subsidiaries. However, Company
FFO and Company EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from,
or as substitutes for, analysis of our financial statements
prepared in accordance with IFRS.
References to Brookfield Business Partners are
to Brookfield Business Partners L.P. together with its
subsidiaries, controlled affiliates and operating entities.
Brookfield Business Partners’ results include publicly held limited
partnership units, redemption-exchange units, general partnership
units and special limited partnership units. More detailed
information on certain references made in this news release will be
available in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations for the first quarter ended
March 31, 2020.

Notes:
- The Statements of Company Funds from Operations above are
prepared on a basis that is consistent with Brookfield Business
Partners’ Supplemental Information and differs from net income as
presented in Brookfield Business Partners’ Consolidated Statements
of Operating Results on page 6 of this release, which is prepared
in accordance with IFRS. Management uses Company FFO and Company
EBITDA as key measures to evaluate operating performance. Readers
are encouraged to consider all measures in assessing Brookfield
Business Partners’ results.
- Company EBITDA is presented as a net amount attributable to
unitholders and is a non-IFRS measure and is calculated as Company
FFO excluding the impact of realized disposition gains (losses),
interest income (expense), current income taxes, the impact of
realized disposition gains (losses), current income taxes and
interest income (expense) related to equity accounted investments,
and other items. When determining Company EBITDA, we include our
proportionate share of Company EBITDA of equity accounted
investments.
- Company FFO is presented as a net amount attributable to
