Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017

Time Charter Revenues. The following table sets forth details of our time charter revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

					Positive
	Three months ended March 31,				(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018		2017		variance
Time charter revenues	$	34,885	$	35,076	$	(191	)

Time charter revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $34.9 million, a decrease of $0.2 million from $35.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Time charter revenue decreased by $1.1 million due to lower time charter revenue for the Höegh Gallant for the three months ended March 31, 2018 which was partially offset by increased time charter revenue of $0.9 million for the PGN FSRU Lampung and the Höegh Grace. The Höegh Gallant had 10 days of off-hire due to scheduled maintenance for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with several days off-hire for unscheduled maintenance for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Time charter revenues for the PGN FSRU Lampung consist of the lease element of the time charter, accounted for as a direct financing lease using the effective interest rate method, as well as variable consideration for providing time charter services, reimbursement for vessel operating expenses, performance warranties, if any, and withholding taxes borne by the charterer. Time charter revenues for the Höegh Gallant consist of the fixed daily hire rate which covers the operating lease and the provision of time charter services including the costs incurred to operate the vessel and performance warranties, if any. Time charter revenues for the Höegh Grace consist of a lease element accounted for as an operating lease, as well as variable consideration for providing time charter services, reimbursement of vessel operating expenses, performance warranties, if any, and certain taxes incurred. Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted the new accounting standard, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which did not change the timing or amount of revenue recognized but requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. Refer to notes 2.c. and 5 in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Vessel Operating Expenses. The following table sets forth details of our vessel operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

							Positive
	Three months ended March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Vessel operating expenses	$	(5,752	)	$	(6,177	)	$	425

Administrative Expenses. The following table sets forth details of our administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

							Positive
	Three months ended March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Administrative expenses	$	(2,787	)	$	(2,757	)	$	(30	)

Administrative expenses were $2.8 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Depreciation and Amortization. The following table sets forth details of our depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

							Positive
	Three months ended March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Depreciation and amortization	$	(5,268	)	$	(5,263	)	$	(5	)

Depreciation and amortization were $5.3 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Total Operating Expenses. The following table sets forth details of our total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

							Positive
	Three months ended March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Total operating expenses	$	(13,807	)	$	(14,197	)	$	390

Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $13.8 million, a decrease of $0.4 million from $14.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is mainly due to reduced vessel operating expenses for the PGN FSRU Lampung and the Höegh Grace in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to corresponding period of 2017.

Equity in Earnings (Losses) of Joint Ventures. The following table sets forth details of our equity in earnings (losses) of joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

					Positive
	Three months ended March 31,				(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018		2017		variance
Equity in earnings (losses) of joint ventures	$	9,369	$	4,809	$	4,560

Equity in earnings of joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $9.4 million, an increase of $4.6 million from equity in earnings of joint ventures of $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Unrealized gains on derivative instruments in our joint ventures significantly impacted the equity in earnings of joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Excluding the unrealized gain on derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the equity in earnings of joint ventures would have been $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.6 million compared to equity in earnings of $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Our share of our joint ventures’ operating income was $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared with $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our share of other financial expense, net, principally consisting of interest expense, was $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of $0.3 million from $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The reduction was mainly due to lower interest expense due to repayment of principal on debt between the two periods.

Our share of unrealized gain on derivative instruments was $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $4.0 million from an unrealized gain of $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

There was no accrued income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Our joint ventures did not pay any dividends for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Operating Income (Loss). The following table sets forth details of our operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

					Positive
	Three months ended March 31,				(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018		2017		variance
Operating income (loss)	$	30,447	$	25,688	$	4,759

Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $30.5 million, an increase of $4.8 million from operating income of $25.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Excluding the impact of the unrealized gain on derivatives for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 impacting the equity in earnings of joint ventures, operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 would have been $23.9 million, an increase of $0.7 million from $23.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2018 is primarily due to reduced vessel operating expenses for the PGN FSRU Lampung and the Höegh Grace and an increase in equity in earnings of our joint ventures.

Interest Income. The following table sets forth details of our interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

					Positive
	Three months ended March 31,				(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018		2017		variance
Interest income	$	187	$	130	$	57

Interest income was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.1 million from $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Interest income is mainly related to interest accrued on the advances to our joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. The interest rate under the shareholder loans is a fixed rate of 8.0% per year.

Interest Expense. The following table sets forth details of our interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

							Positive
	Three months ended March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Interest expense	$	(6,640	)	$	(7,259	)	$	619
Commitment fees		(37	)		(264	)		227
Amortization of debt issuance cost and fair value of debt assumed		(187	)		(213	)		26
Total interest expense	$	(6,864	)	$	(7,736	)	$	872

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $6.9 million, a decrease of $0.8 million from $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Interest expense consists of the interest incurred, commitment fees and amortization of debt issuance cost and fair value of debt assumed for the period.

The interest incurred of $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, decreased by $0.7 million compared to $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, principally due to repayment of outstanding loan balances for the loan facilities related to the PGN FSRU Lampung (the "Lampung facility"), the Höegh Gallant (the "Gallant Facility"), the Höegh Grace (the "Grace Facility") and the repayment of the seller's credit note.

Commitment fees were $0.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of $0.3 million from $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The commitment fees relate to the undrawn $85 million revolving credit facility. On January 29, 2018, the revolving credit facility was amended eliminating the requirement to pay a commitment fee on the undrawn balance of the facility as of that date.

Amortization of debt issuance cost and fair value of debt assumed were $0.2 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments. The following table sets forth details of our gain (loss) on derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

					Positive
	Three months ended March 31,				(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018		2017		variance
Gain (loss) on derivative instruments	$	631	$	663	$	(32	)

Gain on derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $0.6 million, a decrease of $0.1 million from $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Gain on derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 related to the interest rate swaps for the Lampung facility, Gallant facility and the Grace facility. The decrease is mainly due to reduced amortization of the amount excluded from hedge effectiveness for the Lampung facility, the Gallant facility and the Grace facility partly offset by an increase in ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge related to the Gallant facility.

Other Items, Net. The following table sets forth details of our other items, net for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

							Positive
	Three months ended March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Foreign exchange gain (loss)	$	58		$	(133	)	$	191
Bank charges, fees and other		(35	)		(23	)		(12	)
Withholding tax on interest expense and other		(629	)		(646	)		17
Total other items, net	$	(606	)	$	(802	)	$	196

Other items, net for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $0.6 million, a decrease of $0.2 million from $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is mainly due to a change in the foreign exchange gain (loss) of $0.2 million.

Income (Loss) Before Tax. The following table sets forth details of our income (loss) before tax for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

					Positive
	Three months ended March 31,				(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018		2017		variance
Income (loss) before tax	$	23,795	$	17,943	$	5,852

Income before tax for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $23.8 million, an increase of $5.9 million from $17.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The income before tax for both periods was impacted by the unrealized gain on derivative instruments mainly on our share of equity in earnings of joint ventures. Excluding all the unrealized gain on derivative instruments, income before tax for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $16.6 million, an increase of $1.8 million from $14.8 million for the three months March 31, 2017. Excluding the unrealized gain on derivative instruments, the increase is primarily due to reduced vessel operating expenses, increased earnings of our joint ventures and lower interest expenses.

Income Tax Expense. The following table sets forth details of our income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

							Positive
	Three months ended March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Income tax expense	$	(2,109	)	$	(1,755	)	$	(354	)

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $2.1 million, an increase of $0.3 million compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We are not subject to Marshall Islands income taxes. However, we are subject to tax for earnings of our subsidiaries incorporated in Singapore, Indonesia, Colombia, Cyprus and the UK. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the income tax expense largely related to the subsidiaries in Singapore, Indonesia and Colombia. The charterer in Colombia pays certain taxes directly to the Colombian tax authorities on behalf of our subsidiaries that own and operate the Höegh Grace. The tax payments are a mechanism for advance collection of part of the income taxes for the Colombian subsidiary and a final income tax on Colombian source income for the non-Colombian subsidiary. We concluded these third party payments to the tax authorities represent income taxes that must be accounted for under the guidance for income taxes. The amount of non-cash income tax expense was $0.2 million and $0.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position taken in a tax return will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the estimated generation of taxable income resulted in the utilization of $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of tax loss carryforward in Indonesia which was not recognized due to the uncertainty of this tax position. As a result, a long-term income tax payable of $0.4 million and $0.2 million was recorded for the uncertain tax position as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Net Income (Loss). The following table sets forth details of our net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

					Positive
	Three months ended March 31,				(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018		2017		variance
Net income (loss)	$	21,686	$	16,188	$	5,498
Non-controlling interest in net income		—		2,744		(2,744	)
Preferred unitholders' interest in net income		2,660		—		2,660
Limited partners’ interest in net income (loss)	$	19,026	$	13,444	$	5,582

As a result of the foregoing, net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $21.7 million, an increase of $5.5 million from net income of $16.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, net income of $2.7 million was attributable to non-controlling interest for the 49% interest in Höegh Colombia Holding, the owner of the entities that own and operate the Höegh Grace (the “Höegh Grace entities”), not owned by us in the period from January 1, 2017 to March 31, 2017. On December 1, 2017, we acquired the remaining 49% ownership interest in the Höegh Grace entities and, as of that date, there was no longer a non-controlling interest in the Höegh Grace. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, net income of $2.7 million was attributable to the holders of the preferred units due the issuance of preferred units on October 5, 2017 and subsequently as part of our ATM program. Our limited partners' interest in net income, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $19.0 million, an increase of $5.6 million from net income of $13.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Segments

There are two operating segments. The segment profit measure is Segment EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other financial items (gains and losses on derivative instruments and other items, net) less the non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA. Segment EBITDA is reconciled to operating income and net income in the segment presentation below. The two segments are “Majority held FSRUs” and “Joint venture FSRUs.” In addition, unallocated corporate costs that are considered to benefit the entire organization, interest income from advances to joint ventures and interest expense related to the seller’s credit note and the outstanding balance on the $85 million revolving credit facility are included in “Other.”

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, Majority held FSRUs includes the direct financing lease related to the PGN FSRU Lampung, the operating leases related to the Höegh Gallant and the Höegh Grace.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, Joint Venture FSRUs include two 50% owned FSRUs, the Neptune and the GDF Suez Cape Ann, that operate under long-term time charters with one charterer.

The accounting policies applied to the segments are the same as those applied in the financial statements, except that i) Joint Venture FSRUs are presented under the proportional consolidation method for the segment note and in the tables below, and under equity accounting for the consolidated financial statements and ii) non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA is subtracted in the segment note and the tables below to reflect the Partnership’s interest in Segment EBITDA as the Partnership’s segment profit measure, Segment EBITDA. Under the proportional consolidation method, 50% of the Joint Venture FSRUs’ revenues, expenses and assets are reflected in the segment note. Management monitors the results of operations of joint ventures under the proportional consolidation method and not the equity method of accounting. On January 1, 2017, the Partnership began consolidating its acquired 51% interest in the Höegh Grace entities. Since the Partnership obtained control of the Höegh Grace entities, it consolidated 100% of the revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities of the Höegh Grace entities and the interest not owned by the Partnership was reflected as non-controlling interest in net income and non-controlling interest in total equity under US GAAP. Management monitored the results of operations of the Höegh Grace entities based on the Partnership’s 51% interest in Segment EBITDA of such entities and, therefore, subtracted the non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA to present Segment EBITDA. The adjustment to non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA is reversed to reconcile to operating income and net income in the segment presentation. On December 1, 2017, the Partnership acquired the remaining 49% ownership interest in the Höegh Grace entities and, as of that date, there is no longer a non-controlling interest in the Höegh Grace entities.

Majority Held FSRUs. The following table sets forth details of segment results for the Majority Held FSRUs for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

Time charter revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $34.9 million compared to $35.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. As discussed in more detail above, the Höegh Gallant had 10 days of off-hire due to scheduled maintenance for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with several days reduced hire for unscheduled maintenance for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This was partially offset by increased time charter revenue for the PGN FSRU Lampung and the Höegh Grace, including recognition of certain constrained variable consideration for reimbursement of prior period costs. The PGN FSRU Lampung and the Höegh Grace were both on-hire for the full three months periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Vessel operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $5.8 million, a decrease of $0.4 million from $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease reflects reduced vessel operating expenses for both the PGN FSRU Lampung and the Höegh Grace. The vessel operating expenses for the Höegh Gallant was unchanged for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the corresponding period of 2017.

Administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $0.8 million, a decrease of $0.3 million from $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 mainly due to lower advisor expenses.

Segment EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $28.4 million, an increase of $5.6 million from $22.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 mainly due to no longer having a non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA because of the acquisition of the remaining 49% interest in the Höegh Grace entities, which closed on December 1, 2017. In addition, Segment EBITDA was negatively impacted by the scheduled off-hire for the Höegh Gallant, partly offset by increased time charter revenue and lower vessel operating expenses for the PGN FSRU Lampung and the Höegh Grace.

Joint Venture FSRUs. The following table sets forth details of segment results for the Joint Venture FSRUs for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

	Three months ended						Positive
Joint Venture FSRUs	March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Time charter revenues	$	10,996		$	10,924		$	72

Income tax expense		—			—			—
Net income (loss)	$	9,369		$	4,809		$	4,560

Total time charter revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $11.0 million, an increase of $0.1 million compared to $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Neptune had reduced hire in its start-up phase in Turkey.

Vessel operating expenses were $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of $0.3 million compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The higher vessel operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2017 was largely due to costs related to the start-up of the Neptune’s operations in Turkey during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $0.4 million, an increase of $0.2 million compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The main reason for the increase in administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017 was increased costs incurred in relation to a new project for the charterer related to the GDF Suez Cape Ann.

Segment EBITDA was $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with $8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Other. The following table sets forth details of other results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

	Three months ended						Positive
Other	March 31,						(negative)
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017			variance
Administrative expenses	$	(2,006	)	$	(1,672	)	$	(334	)
Segment EBITDA		(2,006	)		(1,672	)		(334	)

Income tax expense		—			—			—
Net income (loss)	$	(2,718	)	$	(2,625	)	$	(93	)

Administrative expenses and Segment EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $2.0 million, an increase of $0.3 million from $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was mainly due to higher advisor costs incurred in preparation for establishing the ATM program.

Other financial income (expense), net, which is not part of the segment measure of profits, is related to the interest income accrued on the advances to our joint ventures and interest expense for a seller’s credit note which was fully repaid in December 2017 and the $85 million revolving credit facility.

Other financial income (expense), net was an expense of $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of $0.3 million from $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity and Cash Needs

We operate in a capital-intensive industry, and we expect to finance the purchase of additional vessels and other capital expenditures through a combination of cash from operations, the utilization of borrowings from commercial banks and debt and equity financings. Our liquidity requirements relate to paying our unitholder distributions, servicing interest and quarterly repayments on our debt (“debt amortization”), funding working capital and maintaining cash reserves against fluctuations in operating cash flows. The liquidity requirements of our joint ventures relate to the servicing of debt, including repayment of shareholder loans, funding working capital, including drydocking, and maintaining cash reserves against fluctuations in operating cash flows.

Our sources of liquidity include cash balances, cash flows from our operations, interest payments from our advances to our joint ventures, our current undrawn balance of $27.4 million as of March 31, 2018 under the $85 million revolving credit facility from Höegh LNG and net proceeds from our ATM program. Cash and cash equivalents are denominated primarily in U.S. dollars. We do not currently use derivative instruments for other purposes than managing interest rate risks. The advances to our joint ventures (accrued interest from prior periods) are subordinated to the joint ventures’ long-term bank debt, consisting of the Neptune facility and the Cape Ann facility. Under terms of the shareholder loan agreements, the repayments shall be prioritized over any dividend payment to the owners of the joint ventures. As discussed in note 14 under "Joint ventures claims and accruals" to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the joint ventures have recorded accruals for the probable liability for boil-off claim under the time charters. As a precaution, the joint ventures have suspended payments on the shareholder loans pending the outcome of the boil-off claim since the amounts and timing of a potential settlement are not clear. The suspension of the payments on the shareholder loans reduce cash flows available to us. Dividend distributions from our joint ventures require a) agreement of the other joint venture owners; b) fulfilment of requirements of the long-term bank loans; and c) under Cayman Islands law may be paid out of profits or capital reserves subject to the joint venture being solvent after the distribution. Dividends from Höegh Lampung may only be paid out of profits under Singapore law. Dividends from PT Höegh may only be paid if its retained earnings are positive under Indonesian law and requirements are fulfilled under the Lampung facility. In addition, PT Höegh, as an Indonesian incorporated company, is required to establish a statutory reserve equal to 20% of its paid up capital. The dividend can only be distributed if PT Höegh’s retained earnings are positive after deducting the statutory reserve. As of March 31, 2018, PT Höegh did not have adequate positive retained earnings to establish the required statutory reserves and therefore cannot make dividend payments under Indonesia law. However, subject to meeting a debt service ratio of 1.20 to 1.00, PT Höegh can distribute cash from its cash flow from operations to us as payment of intercompany accrued interest and/or intercompany debt, after quarterly payments of the Lampung facility and fulfilment of the “waterfall” provisions to meet operating requirements as defined by the Lampung facility. Under Cayman Islands law, Höegh FSRU III, Höegh FSRU IV and Höegh Colombia Holding may only pay distributions out of profits or capital reserves if the entity is solvent after the distribution. In addition, Höegh FSRU IV would also need to remain in compliance with the financial covenants under the Gallant/Grace facility. Dividends from Höegh Cyprus may only be distributed (i) out of profits and not from the share capital of the company and (ii) if after the dividend payment, Höegh Cyprus would remain in compliance with the financial covenants under the Gallant/Grace facility. Dividends from Höegh Colombia may only be distributed if after the dividend payment, Höegh Colombia would remain in compliance with the financial covenants under the Gallant/Grace facility.

For a description of our credit facilities and the seller’s credit note and revolving credit facility, please see notes 14 and 17 to the audited consolidated financial statements contained in our 2017 Form 20-F as well as notes 9 and 11 to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements contained in this Report on Form 6-K.

As of March 31, 2018, we do not have material commitments for capital expenditures for our current business. For the joint ventures, the charterer plans to use the GDF Suez Cape Ann for a project in India expected to commence in second half of 2018. The vessel will be drydocked and fitted with certain modifications prior to the project start which will be compensated by the charterer. As discussed in note 14 under "Joint ventures claims and accruals" in our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the joint ventures have a probable liability for a boil-off claim under the time charters. Our 50% share of the accrual was approximately $11.9 million as of March 31, 2018. The joint ventures will continue to monitor this issue and adjust accruals, as might be required, based upon additional information and further developments. The parties have referred the claim to arbitration. To the extent that excess boil-off claims result in a settlement, we would be indemnified by Höegh LNG for our share of the cash impact of any settlement. However, other concessions or capital improvements, if any, would not be expected to be indemnified.

The Höegh Gallant operates under a long term time charter which started in April 2015 with an expiration date in April 2020 with Hoegh LNG Egypt LLC (“EgyptCo”), a subsidiary of Höegh LNG. EgyptCo has a charter with the government-owned Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (“EGAS”). The charter between EgyptCo and EGAS allows for early termination only with the mutual consent of both parties. In the first quarter of 2018, EGAS requested to meet with EgyptCo to seek agreement on terms for an early termination of the charter. Such an agreement would require consent of EgyptCo. Pursuant to an option agreement, the Partnership has the right to cause Höegh LNG to charter the Höegh Gallant from the expiration or termination of the EgyptCo charter until July 2025, at a rate equal to 90% of the rate payable pursuant to the current charter with EgyptCo, plus any incremental taxes or operating expenses as a result of the new charter. Höegh LNG’s ability to make payments to us with respect to an exercise of the option by us may be affected by events beyond our and its control, including opportunities to obtain new employment for the vessel, prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. If market or other economic conditions deteriorate, Höegh LNG’s ability to meet its obligations to us may be impaired. If Höegh LNG is unable to meet its obligations to us for the option, our financial condition, results of operations and ability to make cash distributions to our unitholders could be materially adversely affected.

In January 2018, we entered into a sales agreement with B. Riley Inc. (the "Agent"). Under the terms of the sales agreement, the Partnership may sell up to $120 million aggregate offering amount of common and Series A preferred units (the "ATM program"), from time to time, through the Agent. As of March 31, 2018, we had sold 309,152 Series A preferred units at an average gross sales price of $26.14 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $7.9 million. As of March 31, 2018, we had sold 154,500 common units at an average gross price of $18.22 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $2.8 million. The Partnership has paid an aggregate of $0.2 million in sales commissions to the Agent in connection with such sales as of March 31, 2018. We used the net proceeds from sales under the ATM program for general partnership purposes, including repayment of the revolving credit facility and unit distribution payments.

As of March 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $31.4 million and an undrawn portion of $27.4 million of the $85 million revolving credit facility. On May 16, 2018, we repaid $6.5 million on the revolving credit facility from the net proceeds of the ATM program. Current restricted cash for operating obligations of the PGN FSRU Lampung was $3.9 million and long-term restricted cash required under the Lampung facility was $13.6 million as of March 31, 2018.

The Partnership’s book value and outstanding principal of total long-term debt was $469.1 million and $474.3 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2018, including long-term debt financing our FSRUs, and the revolving credit facility due to owners and affiliates. The long-term debt is repayable in quarterly installments of $11.4 million. For a description of our credit facilities, please see notes 14 and 17 to the audited consolidated financial statements contained in our 2017 Form 20-F, as well as note 9 to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements contained in this Report on Form 6-K.

As of March 31, 2018, the Partnership had outstanding interest rate swap agreements for a total notional amount of $405.5 million to hedge against the interest rate risks of its long-term debt under the Lampung, Gallant and Grace facilities. For additional information, refer to “Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosure About Market Risk” and note 13 to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2018, the Partnership’s total current liabilities exceeded total current assets by $8.5 million. This is partly a result of the current portion of long-term debt of $45.5 million being classified current while the restricted cash of $13.6 million associated with the Lampung facility is classified as long-term. The current portion of long-term debt reflects principal payments for the next twelve months which will be funded, for the most part, by future cash flows from operations. We do not intend to maintain a cash balance to fund our next twelve months’ net liabilities. We believe our cash flows from operations, including distributions to us from PT Höegh, Höegh Cyprus, and Höegh FSRU IV as payment of intercompany interest and/or intercompany debt or dividends, will be sufficient to meet our debt amortization and working capital needs and maintain cash reserves against fluctuations in operating cash flows. In addition, we require liquidity to pay distributions to our unitholders. We believe the available balance on the $85 million revolving credit facility will provide us with adequate liquidity reserve to fund our distributions and other general liquidity needs. In addition, liquidity can also be supplemented, from time to time, by net proceeds of the ATM program, depending on the market conditions. We believe our current resources, including the undrawn balance on the revolving credit facility, are sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for our current business for the next twelve months.

On February 14, 2018 the Partnership paid a quarterly cash distribution of $14.4 million, or $0.43 per common and subordinated unit, with respect to the fourth quarter of 2017.

On February 15, 2018, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $3.7 million, or $0.78993 per Series A preferred unit, for the period commencing on October 5, 2017 to February 14, 2018.

On May 15, 2018, the Partnership paid a quarterly cash distribution with respect to the quarter ended March 31, 2018 of $0.44 per unit. The total amount of the distribution was $15.0 million.

On May 15, 2018, the Partnership paid a quarterly cash distribution of $0.546875 per Series A preferred unit. The total amount of the distribution paid on May 15, 2018, was $2.8 million.

On May 16, 2018, we repaid $6.5 million on the revolving credit facility using part of the net proceeds of the ATM program.

For the period from April 2, 2018 to May 29, 2018, we had sold 273,831 Series A preferred units under our ATM program at an average gross sales price of $25.62 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $6.9 million. For the period from April 2, 2018 to May 29, 2018, we had sold 900 common units under our ATM program at an average gross price of $18.10 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $0.02 million. The Partnership has paid an aggregate of $0.1 million in sales commissions to the Agent in connection with such sales in the period from April 2, 2018 to May 29, 2018. From the commencement of the ATM program, we have sold 582,983 Series A preferred units and 155,400 common units, and received net proceeds of $14.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The compensation paid to the Agent for such sales were $0.3 million.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our net cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities and our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash for the periods presented:

	Three months ended
	March 31,
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)	2018			2017
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	19,325		$	20,343
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities		920			4,630
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		(14,710	)		(24,336	)
Increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		5,535			637
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period		43,281			41,124
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period	$	48,816		$	41,761

We adopted the new accounting guidance on the statement of cash flows on January 1, 2018 which requires that changes in the total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash be explained in the statement of cash flows. The prior periods are adjusted retrospectively to be consistent with the current period's presentation.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $19.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of $1.0 million compared with $20.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Before changes in working capital, cash provided by operating activities were $19.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.5 million compared to $19.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Changes in working capital reduced net cash provided by operating activities by $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of $1.5 million from a positive contribution of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $0.9 and $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease in net cash provided by investing activities of $3.7 million was the result of $3.8 million in cash acquired in the purchase of the initial 51% interest in the Höegh Grace entities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and $0.1 million in increased receipts from repayment on principal on the direct financing lease between the periods. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, cash provided by investing activities included $0.9 million in receipts of repayment on principal on the direct financing lease since the PGN FSRU Lampung charter is accounted for as a financial lease compared to $0.8 million for the corresponding period of 2017.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $14.7 million compared with net cash used in financing activities of $24.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was mainly due to the quarterly repayment of $4.8 million on the Lampung facility, $3.3 million on the Gallant facility, $3.3 million on the Grace facility, payment of $1.3 million on a customer loan for funding of VAT on import in Indonesia, our payment of cash distributions to our common and subordinated unitholders of $14.4 million and our payment of cash distribution to the holders of our Series A preferred units of $3.7 million. This was partially offset by receipt of $5.4 million under the revolving credit facility and proceeds of $2.8 million and $7.9 million for issuance of common and Series A preferred units, respectively, under our ATM program.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was mainly due to the quarterly repayment of $4.8 million on the Lampung facility, $3.3 million on the Gallant facility, $3.3 million on the Grace facility, payment of $1.3 million on a customer loan for funding of VAT on import in Indonesia, and our payment of cash distributions to our common and subordinated unitholders of $13.7 million. This was partially offset by receipt of $1.6 million under the revolving credit facility and $0.4 million from Höegh LNG for the indemnification claimed for non-budgeted expenses and losses incurred in 2016 related to technical issues.

As a result of the foregoing, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash increased by $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, while cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash increased by $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks, including interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and concentrations of risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate swaps are utilized to exchange a receipt of floating interest for a payment of fixed interest to reduce the exposure to interest rate variability on our outstanding floating-rate debt. As of March 31, 2018, there are interest rate swap agreements on the Lampung, Gallant and Grace facilities floating rate debt that are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. As of March 31, 2018, the following interest rate swap agreements were outstanding:

All interest rate swaps are U.S. dollar denominated and principal amount reduces quarterly.

Foreign Currency Risk

All financing, interest expenses from financing and most of our revenue and expenditures for vessel improvements are denominated in U.S. dollars. Certain operating expenses can be denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, no derivative financial instruments have been used to manage foreign exchange risk. The Gallant time charter provides that revenues are denominated 90% in U.S. dollars and 10% in Egyptian pounds, or as otherwise agreed between the parties from time to time. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, the revenues from the Höegh Gallant were denominated 96% and 97% in U.S. dollars and 4% and 3% in Egyptian pounds, respectively. A limited amount of operating expenses was also denominated in Egyptian pounds. Due to restrictions in Egypt, exchangeability between Egyptian pounds and other currencies was more than temporarily lacking or limited during 2017 and the three months ended March 31, 2018. There are two official published rates for Egyptian pounds. The lower rate is applied in our consolidated financial statements for revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. For all of 2017 and the three months ended March 31, 2018, we agreed to the payment of monthly revenues denominated in Egyptian pounds that aligned with our working capital needs for the next month which reduced our foreign exchange rate exposure and the risk of loss to a minimal amount in the event Egyptian pound was devalued.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties related to cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables and interest rate swap agreements. In order to minimize counterparty risk, bank relationships are established with counterparties with acceptable credit ratings at the time of the transactions. Credit risk related to receivables is limited by performing ongoing credit evaluations of the customers’ financial condition. In addition, Höegh LNG guarantees the payment of the Höegh Gallant time charter hire by EgyptCo under certain circumstances. PGN also guarantees PGN LNG's obligations under the PGN FSRU Lampung time charter. The other time charters do not have parent company guarantees.

Concentrations of Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables and derivative contracts (interest rate swaps). The maximum exposure to loss due to credit risk is the book value at the balance sheet date. We do not have a policy of requiring collateral or security. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are placed with qualified financial institutions. Periodic evaluations are performed of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions. In addition, exposure is limited by diversifying among counterparties. There are three charterers so there is a concentration of risk related to trade receivables. Credit risk related to trade receivables is limited by performing ongoing credit evaluations of the customer’s financial condition. In addition, Höegh LNG guarantees the payment of the Höegh Gallant time charter hire by EgyptCo under certain circumstances. No impairment loss was recorded for the three months periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017. While the maximum exposure to loss due to credit risk is the book value of trade receivables at the balance sheet date, should the time charter for the PGN FSRU Lampung, the Höegh Gallant or the Höegh Grace terminate prematurely, there could be delays in obtaining a new time charter and the rates could be lower depending upon the prevailing market conditions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Segment EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization and taxes. Segment EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization, taxes and other financial items less non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA. Other financial items consist of gains and losses on derivative instruments and other items, net (including foreign exchange gains and losses and withholding tax on interest expenses). Segment EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of financial statements, such as the Partnership's lenders, to assess its financial and operating performance. The Partnership believes that Segment EBITDA assists its management and investors by increasing the comparability of its performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies in the industry that provide Segment EBITDA information. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods or companies of interest, other financial items, depreciation and amortization and taxes, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income between periods. The Partnership believes that including Segment EBITDA as a financial and operating measure benefits investors in (a) selecting between investing in it and other investment alternatives and (b) monitoring its ongoing financial and operational strength in assessing whether to continue to hold common units. Segment EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Segment EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income, and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, Segment EBITDA as presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The following tables reconcile Segment EBITDA for each of the segments and the Partnership as a whole to net income (loss), the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, for the periods presented:

(1)

Eliminations reverse each of the income statement reconciling line items of the proportional amounts for Joint venture FSRUs that are reflected in the consolidated net income for the Partnership's share of the Joint venture FSRUs net income (loss) on the Equity in earnings (loss) of joint ventures line item in the consolidated income statement. Separate adjustments from the consolidated net income to Segment EBITDA for the Partnership's share of the Joint venture FSRUs are included in the reconciliation lines starting with “Equity in earnings of JVs.”

(2)

Other financial items consist of gains and losses on derivative instruments and other items, net including foreign exchange gains or losses and withholding tax on interest expense.

(3)

There is no adjustment between net income for Total Segment reporting and the Consolidated reporting because the net income under the proportional consolidation and equity method of accounting is the same.

(4)

Interest income and interest expense for the Joint venture FSRUs is eliminated from the Total Segment reporting to agree to the interest income and interest expense in the Consolidated reporting and reflected as a separate adjustment to the equity accounting on the line Equity in earnings of JVs: Interest (income) expense for the Consolidated reporting.

(5)

Depreciation and amortization for the Joint venture FSRUs is eliminated from the Total Segment reporting to agree to the depreciation and amortization in the Consolidated reporting and reflected as a separate adjustment to the equity accounting on the line Equity in earnings of JVs: Depreciation and amortization for the Consolidated reporting.

(6)

Other financial items for the Joint venture FSRUs is eliminated from the Segment reporting to agree to the Other financial items in the Consolidated reporting and reflected as a separate adjustment to the equity accounting on the line Equity in earnings of JVs: Other financial items for the Consolidated reporting.

HÖEGH LNG PARTNERS LP

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

1. Description of business

Höegh LNG Partners LP (the “Partnership”) is a publicly traded Marshall Islands limited partnership initially formed for the purpose of acquiring from Höegh LNG Holdings Ltd. (“Höegh LNG”) their interests in Hoegh LNG Lampung Pte. Ltd., PT Hoegh LNG Lampung (the owner of the PGN FSRU Lampung and the Tower Yoke Mooring System), SRV Joint Gas Ltd. (the owner of the Neptune), and SRV Joint Gas Two Ltd. (the owner of the GDF Suez Cape Ann) in connection with the Partnership’s initial public offering of its common units (the “IPO”) which was completed in August 2014. As of March 31, 2018, the Partnership has a fleet of five floating storage regasification units (“FSRUs”).

Under the partnership agreement, the general partner has irrevocably delegated to the Partnership’s board of directors the power to oversee and direct the operations of, manage and determine the strategies and policies of the Partnership. Four of the seven board members were elected by the common unitholders at the Partnership’s first annual meeting of unitholders held on September 24, 2014. As a result, Höegh LNG, as the owner of the general partner, does not have the power to control the Partnership’s board of directors or the Partnership, and the Partnership is not considered to be under the control of Höegh LNG for US GAAP purposes. Therefore, the sale of a business from Höegh LNG to the Partnership is a change of control. As a result, the Partnership accounts for acquisitions of businesses under the purchase method of accounting and not as transfers of entities under common control.

On January 26, 2018, the Partnership entered into sales agreement with B. Riley FBR Inc. (the "Agent"). Under the terms of the sales agreement, the Partnership may offer and sell up to $120 million aggregate offering amount of common units and 8.75% Series A cumulative redeemable preferred units ("Series A preferred units"), from time to time, through the Agent, acting as agent for the Partnership (the “ATM Program”). Sales of such units may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or through a market marker other than on an exchange. Refer to note 15.

The Partnership’s 50% interests in SRV Joint Gas Ltd. and SRV Joint Gas Two Ltd., collectively, are referred to as the “joint ventures” and the remaining entities owned by the Partnership, as reflected in the table below are, collectively, referred to as the “subsidiaries” in these consolidated financial statements. The PGN FSRU Lampung, the Höegh Gallant, the Höegh Grace, the Neptune and the GDF Suez Cape Ann are FSRUs and, collectively, referred to in these consolidated financial statements as the vessels or the FSRUs. The Tower Yoke Mooring System (the “Mooring”) is an offshore installation that is used to moor the PGN FSRU Lampung to offload the gas into an offshore pipe that transports the gas to a land terminal. PT Hoegh LNG Lampung, Hoegh LNG Cyprus Limited, the owner of the Höegh Gallant, Höegh LNG FSRU IV Ltd., the owner of the Höegh Grace, and the two joint ventures, SRV Joint Gas Ltd. and SRV Joint Gas Two Ltd., are collectively referred to as the “FSRU-owning entities.”

The Neptune and the GDF Suez Cape Ann operate under long-term time charters with expiration dates in 2029 and 2030, respectively, and, in each case, with an option for the charterer, GDF Suez Global LNG Supply SA ("GDF Suez"), a subsidiary of ENGIE, to extend for up to two additional periods of five years each. The PGN FSRU Lampung, operates under a long term time charter which started in July 2014 with an expiration date in 2034 (with an option for the charterer to extend for up to one additional period of ten years or two additional periods of five years each) and uses the Mooring that was constructed and installed and sold to the charterer, PT PGN LNG Indonesia (“PGN LNG”), a subsidiary of PT Perusahaan Gas Negara (Persero) Tbk (“PGN”). The Höegh Gallant operates under a long term time charter which started in April 2015 with an expiration date in April 2020 with Hoegh LNG Egypt LLC (“EgyptCo”), a subsidiary of Höegh LNG. EgyptCo has a charter with the government-owned Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (“EGAS”). Pursuant to an option agreement, the Partnership has the right to cause Höegh LNG to charter the Höegh Gallant from the expiration or termination of the EgyptCo charter until July 2025. The Höegh Grace operates under a long term time charter which started in December 2016 with Sociedad Portuaria El Cayao S.A. E.S.P. (“SPEC”). The non-cancellable charter period is 10 years. The initial term of the charter is 20 years. However, each party has an unconditional option to cancel the charter after 10 and 15 years without a penalty. However, if SPEC waives its right to terminate in year 10 within a certain deadline, the Partnership will not be able to exercise its right to terminate in year 10.

2. Significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, which are of a normal recurring nature, have been included. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated. The footnotes are condensed and do not include all of the disclosures required for a complete set of financial statements. Therefore, the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 20-F (the “Annual Report”).

It has been determined that PT Hoegh LNG Lampung, Höegh LNG FSRU III Ltd., Höegh LNG Colombia Holding Ltd., SRV Joint Gas Ltd. and SRV Joint Gas Two Ltd. are variable interest entities. A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is defined by US GAAP as a legal entity where either (a) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or both, and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights, or (b) the equity holders have not provided sufficient equity investment to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (c) equity interest holders as a group lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, including decision making ability and an interest in the entity’s residual risks and rewards. The guidance requires a VIE to be consolidated if any of its interest holders are entitled to a majority of the entity’s residual returns or are exposed to a majority of its expected losses.

F-11

HÖEGH LNG PARTNERS LP

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

Based upon the criteria set forth in US GAAP, the Partnership has determined that PT Hoegh LNG Lampung is a VIE, as the equity holders, through their equity investments, may not participate fully in the entity's expected residual returns and substantially all of the entity's activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, the Partnership. The Partnership is the primary beneficiary, as it has the power to make key operating decisions considered to be most significant to the VIE and receives all the expected benefits or expected losses. Therefore, 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of PT Hoegh LNG Lampung are included in the consolidated financial statements. Dividends may only be paid if the retained earnings are positive and a statutory reserve has been established equal to 20% of its paid up capital under Indonesian law. As of March 31, 2018, PT Hoegh LNG Lampung did not have adequate positive retained earnings to establish the required statutory reserves and therefore cannot make dividend payments under Indonesia law. Under the Lampung facility, there are limitations on cash dividends and loan distributions that can be made to the Partnership. Refer to note 9.

The Partnership has also determined that Höegh LNG FSRU III Ltd. is a VIE, as the equity investment does not provide sufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without financial guarantees. The Partnership is the primary beneficiary, as it has the power to make key operating decisions considered to be most significant to the VIE and receives all the expected benefits or expected losses. Therefore, 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of Höegh LNG FSRU III Ltd. are included in the consolidated financial statements. Under Cayman Islands law, dividends may only be paid out of profits or capital reserves if the entity is solvent after the distribution. Under the Gallant/Grace facility, there are limitations on dividends and loans distributions that can be made to the Partnership. Refer to note 9. The Partnership is a guarantor of the Gallant/Grace facility.

Höegh LNG Colombia Holding Ltd. is a VIE since the entity would not be able to finance its activities without financial guarantees under its subsidiary’s facility to finance the Höegh Grace. The Partnership is the primary beneficiary, as it has the power to make key operating decisions considered to be most significant to the VIE and, as of December 1, 2017, receives all of the expected benefits or expected losses. Therefore, 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of Höegh LNG Colombia Holding Ltd., and subsidiaries, are included in the consolidated financial statements with a non-controlling interest reflected for the minority share until fully acquired by the Partnership on December 1, 2017. Under Cayman Islands law, dividends may only be paid out of profits or capital reserves if the entity is solvent after the distribution. Under the Gallant/Grace facility, there are limitations on dividends and loan distributions that can be made to the Partnership. Refer to note 9. The Partnership is a guarantor of the Gallant/Grace facility.

In addition, the Partnership has determined that the two joint ventures, SRV Joint Gas Ltd. and SRV Joint Gas Two Ltd., are VIEs since each entity did not have a sufficient equity investment to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support at the time of its initial investment. The entities have been financed with third party debt and subordinated shareholders loans. The Partnership is not the primary beneficiary, as the Partnership cannot make key operating decisions considered to be most significant to the VIEs, but has joint control with the other equity holders. Therefore, the joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Partnership has significant influence. The Partnership’s carrying value is recorded in advances to joint ventures and accumulated losses of joint ventures in the consolidated balance sheets. For SRV Joint Gas Ltd., the Partnership had a receivable for the advances of $2.6 million and $2.6 million, respectively, and the Partnership’s accumulated losses or its share of net liabilities were $5.9 million and $10.7 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The Partnership’s carrying value for SRV Joint Gas Two Ltd., consists of a receivable for the advances of $0.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and the Partnership’s accumulated losses or its share of net liabilities were $5.4 million and $10.0 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The major reason that the Partnership’s accumulated losses in the joint ventures are net liabilities is due to the fair value adjustments for the interest rate swaps recorded as liabilities on the combined balance sheets of SRV Joint Gas Ltd. and SRV Joint Gas Two Ltd. The maximum exposure to loss is the carrying value of the receivables, which is subordinated to the joint ventures’ long-term bank debt, the investments in the joint ventures (accumulated losses), as the shares are pledged as security for the joint ventures’ long-term bank debt and Höegh LNG’s commitment under long-term bank loan agreements to fund its share of drydocking costs and remarketing efforts in the event of an early termination of the charters. Dividend distributions require a) agreement of the other joint venture owners; b) fulfilment of requirements of the long-term bank loans; c) and under Cayman Islands law may be paid out of profits or capital reserves subject to the joint venture being solvent after the distribution.

Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Partnership’s Annual Report.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as subsequently updated by the FASB (“ASC 606”). Under the new standard, an entity must identify performance obligations and the transaction price in a contract, and allocate the transaction price to specific performance obligations to recognized revenue when the obligations are completed. Revenue for most contracts with customers will be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects consideration that the entity expects to be entitled, subject to certain limitations. The scope of this guidance does not apply to leases, financial instruments, guarantees and certain non-monetary transactions. However, the scope of the guidance does apply to the allocation of the transaction price to lease elements and non-lease elements. Effective January 1, 2018, the Partnership adopted the requirements of ASC 606 to new and existing contracts not yet completed as of January1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach where the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard is recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity. There were no changes to the timing or amount of revenue recognized and, therefore, no cumulative effect of initially applying the standard. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required and have been implemented for reporting periods beginning as of January 1, 2018, while prior periods are not adjusted and continue to be reported under the previous accounting standards. Refer to note 5.

Changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting ASC 606 are discussed below:

Time charter revenues and related contract balances

The Partnership’s consolidated revenue and the revenue of the joint ventures are derived from long-term time charter contracts for the provision of an FSRU including the management and operation of the FSRU at the direction of the charterer.

Revenue recognition:

The Partnership is required to evaluate whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract, whether the contract promises to deliver more than one distinct good or service, or performance obligations, and/or a lease, determine the transaction price under the contract, allocate the transaction price to the lease and the performance obligations and recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

Performance obligations:

The Partnership determined that its time charter contracts contain a lease and a performance obligation for the provision of time charter services. The lease of the vessel, representing the use of the vessel without any associated performance obligations or warranties, is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 840; Leases.

The provision of time charter services, including guarantees for the level of performance provided by the time charter contracts, is considered a distinct service and is accounted for in accordance with the provision of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Partnership determined that the nature of the time charter services promised, represents a single performance obligation, to stand ready over a 24-hour interval to accept LNG cargos, to regasify the LNG and discharge the resulting gas into a pipeline in accordance with the charterer’s instructions and requirements.

Time charter services revenue can be recognized as the performance obligation is satisfied over the 24-hour interval to the performance standards specified under the time charter contract. If the performance standards are not met, off-hire, reduced hire, liquidated damages or other performance payments may result.

Contract terms, determination of transaction price and allocation to performance obligations:

The Partnership’s time charter contracts for all FSRUs, except the Höegh Gallant, include day rates or hire rates and warranty provisions with the following components:

F-13

HÖEGH LNG PARTNERS LP

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

Fixed element: The fixed element is a fixed per day fee intended to cover remuneration for use of the vessel and the provision of time charter services.

Operating expense reimbursement element: The operating expense reimbursement element is a rate per day intended to cover the operating costs of the vessel, including the crew, insurance, consumables, miscellaneous services, spares and maintenance and repairs costs and management services and fees. The amount of the operating expense reimbursement element may be based on actual cost incurred, or fees subject to indexing or other adjustments after a defined period, or a combination of both.

Tax reimbursement element: The tax reimbursement element may be a rate per day, based on the estimated liability for the year divided by the number of days in the year, subject to adjustment for actual taxes incurred, or a reimbursement of the costs as the taxes are incurred. The tax reimbursement element may cover withholding taxes, payroll taxes, other local taxes and current income tax expense for the jurisdiction in which the vessel operates as defined by the provisions of the individual time charter contract.

Performance warranties element: The performance warranties element includes defined operational capacity and standards that can result in the FSRUs being off-hire or require compensation to the charterer through provision of reduced hire, liquidated damages or performance payments. Examples of performance warranties include the ability to discharge regasified LNG at specified performance rates, guaranteed minimum fuel consumption, guaranteed minimum boil-off rates and the ability to accept cargos.

The Höegh Gallant has a single day rate intended to cover all of the elements listed above. In addition, the time charter contract for the Höegh Gallant includes a provision for 15 days of off-hire for scheduled maintenance. The joint ventures’ time charter contracts also provide for upfront payments for variable costs for certain vessel modifications, drydocking costs, other additions to equipment or spare parts.

The hire rates for the PGN FSRU Lampung are invoiced at the beginning of the month. The Höegh Gallant and the Höegh Grace invoice time charter revenues monthly in arrears.

The transaction price is estimated as the standalone selling price for the lease and the time charter services components of the fixed day rate element. Variable consideration per day for operating expense and tax reimbursements is estimated at the most likely amount to which the Partnership is expected to be entitled to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty related to the variable consideration is resolved. When there is significant uncertainty related to that amount of variable consideration to be received, that variable consideration is considered constrained. Typically, variable reimbursements and performance warranties are known at the end of each 24-hour interval, or as subsequently reassessed at the end of the reporting period. However, to the extent interpretations of contractual provisions are complex and/or disputed with the customer, this could give rise to constrained variable consideration. Constrained variable consideration is not estimated.

Variable consideration is allocated entirely to one performance obligation when the variable day rate relates specifically to the efforts to satisfy the signal performance obligation. The default method of the relative standalone selling price method was used to allocate the remaining transaction price, principally the fixed element, between the lease and the time charter services. The total estimated transaction price for time charter services is considered variable consideration because it may be reduced by performance warranties.

The Partnership has made a policy election to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a government entity on revenues, and collected on behalf of that government entity from customers, such as sales or value added taxes.

Lease revenue recognition:

Leases are classified based upon defined criteria either as direct financing leases or operating leases. A lease that transfers substantially all of the benefits and risks of the FSRU to the charterer is accounted for as a financing lease by the lessor. All other leases that do not meet the criteria are classified as operating leases.

The lease component of time charters that are accounted for as operating leases is recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the charter. The Höegh Gallant’s time charter, which had a five-year lease term at inception, is accounted for as an operating lease. The Höegh Grace's time charter contracts, which have a non-cancellable charter period of ten years, are accounted for as an operating lease. Under one of the time charter contracts, the contract provides for additional variable payments, including a finance component, over the initial term depending upon the actual commencement date of the contract within a defined window of potential commencement dates. The variable payments are considered directly related to the lease performance obligation. The revenue, excluding the financing component, is recognized over the initial 10-year term. Payments made by the charterer directly to the tax authorities on behalf of the subsidiaries for final income tax directly related to the provision of the lease is recorded as a component of lease revenues. The amount of non-cash revenue is disclosed separately in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

F-14

HÖEGH LNG PARTNERS LP

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

The lease component of time charters that are accounted for as direct financing leases is recognized over the lease term using the effective interest rate method and is included in time charter revenues. Origination costs related to the time charter are a component of the net investment in direct financing lease and amortized over the lease term using the effective interest method. Direct financing leases are reflected on the consolidated balance sheets as net investments in direct financing leases. The PGN FSRU Lampung time charter, which had a 20-year lease term at inception, meets the criteria of transferring substantially all of the benefits and risks to the charterer and is accounted for as a direct financing lease.

Time charter services revenue recognition:

Variable consideration for the time charter services performance obligation, including amounts allocated to time charter services, estimated reimbursements for vessel operating expenses and estimated reimbursements of certain types of costs and taxes, are recognized as revenues as the performance obligation for the 24-hour interval is fulfilled, subject to adjustment for off-hire and performance warranties. Constrained variable consideration is recognized as revenue on a cumulative catch-up basis when the significant uncertainty related to that amount of variable consideration to be received is resolved. Estimates for variable consideration, including constrained variable consideration, are reassessed at the end of each period. Payments made by the charterer directly to the tax authorities on behalf of the subsidiaries for advance collection of income taxes directly related to the provision of the time charter services are recorded as a component of time charter service revenues. The amount of non-cash revenue is disclosed separately in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Joint venture FSRUs lease and time charter services revenue recognition: The Partnership’s interest in the Joint venture FSRU’s net income is included in the consolidated financial statements under the equity method of accounting, however, the Joint venture FSRU’s results are presented under the proportional consolidation method for the segment note (note 4) and the time charter revenue note (note 5). The Neptune and the GDF Suez Cape Ann’s time charters, which had a twenty-year lease term at inception, are accounted for as operating leases. The joint ventures’ time charters include provisions for the charterer to make upfront payments to compensate for variable cost for certain vessel modifications, drydocking costs, other additions to equipment or spare parts. The expenditures are considered costs required to fulfil the lease component of the contract. Payments for modifications are deferred and amortized over the shorter of the remaining charter period or the useful life of the additions. Payments for reimbursement of drydocking costs are deferred and recognized on a straight line basis over the period to the next drydocking.

The accounting policy for time charter services for the joint ventures is the same as described above.

Significant judgments in revenue recognition:

The Partnership does not provide stand-alone bareboat leases or time charter services for FSRUs. As a result, observable stand-alone transaction prices for the performance obligations are not available. The estimation of the transaction price for the lease and the time charter service performance obligation is complex, subject to a number of input factors, such as market conditions when the contract is entered, internal return objectives and pricing policies, and requires substantial judgment. Significant changes in the transaction price between the two performance obligations could impact conclusions on the accounting for leases as financing or operating leases. In addition, variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that the Partnership expects to be entitled to. Variable consideration is reassessed at the end of the reporting period taking into account performance warranties. The time charter contracts include provisions for performance guarantees that can result in off-hire, reduced hire, liquidated damages or other payments for performance warranties. Measurement of some of the performance warranties can be complex and require properly calibrated equipment on the vessel, complex conversions and computations based on substantial judgment in the interpretation of the contractual provisions. Conclusions on compliance with performance warranties impacts the amount of variable consideration recognized for time charter services.

Contract assets:

Revenue recognized in excess of the monthly invoiced amounts, or accrued revenue, is recorded as contract assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The contract assets are reported in the consolidated balance sheet as a component of prepaid expenses and other receivables.

Contract liabilities:

Advance payments in excess of revenue recognized, or prepayments, and deferred revenue is recorded as contract liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net position for each customer contract or combined contracts at the end of each reporting period. Contract liabilities are classified as current or non-current based on the expected timing of recognition of the revenue. Current and non-current contract liabilities are reported in the consolidated balance sheet as components of accrued liabilities and other payables and other long-term liabilities, respectively.

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

Refund liabilities:

Amounts invoiced or paid by the customer that are expected to be refunded to the customer are recorded as refund liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. Refund liabilities may include invoiced amounts for estimated reimbursable operating expenses or other costs and taxes that exceeded the actual costs incurred, or off-hire, reduced hire, liquidated damages, or other payments for performance warranties. Refund liabilities are reported in the consolidated balance sheet as components of accrued liabilities and other payables.

Remaining performance obligations:

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of contracts with customers under the scope of ASC 606 for which work has not been performed excluding unexercised contract options to extend the term. The Partnership qualifies for and has elected to apply the exemption to disclose the aggregate amount of remaining transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations at the end of the reporting period as consideration for time charter services is variable and allocated entirely to wholly satisfied performance obligations. As described in note 1, the Partnership’s FSRUs operate under long-term time charter contracts which terminate between April 2020 for the Höegh Gallant and 2034 for the longest contract for the PGN FSRU Lampung. As a result, the time service revenue for the period reflected in note 5, as adjusted for off-hire and warranty provision, when applicable, would be expected to be indicative of the of the future time charter service revenue until April 2020.

In August 2016, the FASB issued revised guidance for Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The guidance clarifies how the predominance principle should be applied when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. The Partnership implemented this guidance on January 1, 2018. The Partnership's adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Partnership's consolidated statement of cash flows or related disclosures.

In November 2016, the FASB issued revised guidance for Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. The amendments require that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Partnership implemented the revised guidance on January 1, 2018 using a retrospective transition method to all periods presented. The adoption changed how restricted cash is reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2017:

		Three months ended March 31, 2017
					Adjustments

Amounts included in restricted cash represent balances deposited with a bank as required under debt facilities to settle withholding and other tax liabilities and other current obligations of the entity, principal and interest payments as required by the debt facilities. Restricted cash is classified as long-term when the settlement is more than 12 months from the balance sheet date.

4. Segment information

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, Majority held FSRUs includes the direct financing lease related to the PGN FSRU Lampung and the operating leases related to the Höegh Gallant and the Höegh Grace.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, Joint venture FSRUs include two 50% owned FSRUs, the Neptune and the GDF Suez Cape Ann, that operate under long term time charters with one charterer.

The accounting policies applied to the segments are the same as those applied in the financial statements, except that i) Joint Venture FSRUs are presented under the proportional consolidation method for the segment note and in the tables below, and under equity accounting for the consolidated financial statements and ii) non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA is subtracted in the segment note to reflect the Partnership’s interest in Segment EBITDA as the Partnership’s segment profit measure, Segment EBITDA. Under the proportional consolidation method, 50% of the Joint venture FSRUs’ revenues, expenses and assets are reflected in the segment note. Management monitors the results of operations of joint ventures under the proportional consolidation method and not the equity method of accounting. On January 1, 2017, the Partnership began consolidating its acquired 51% interest in Höegh LNG Colombia Holding Ltd., the owner of the entities that own and operate the FSRU Höegh Grace (the "Höegh Grace entities"). Since the Partnership obtained control of the Höegh Grace entities, it consolidated 100% of the revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities of the Höegh Grace entities and the interest not owned by the Partnership was reflected as non-controlling interest in net income and non-controlling interest in total equity under US GAAP. Management monitored the results of operations of the Höegh Grace entities based on the Partnership’s 51% interest in Segment EBITDA of such entities and, therefore, subtracted the non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA to present Segment EBITDA. The adjustment to non-controlling interest in Segment EBITDA is reversed to reconcile to operating income and net income in the segment presentation. On December 1, 2017, the Partnership acquired the remaining 49% ownership interest in the Höegh Grace entities and, as of that date, there is no longer a non-controlling interest in the Höegh Grace entities.

In time charters, the charterer, not the Partnership, controls the choice of locations or routes the FSRUs serve. Accordingly, the presentation of information by geographical region is not meaningful. The following tables include the results for the segments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

5. Time charter revenues and related contract balances

The Partnership presents its revenue by segment, disaggregated by revenue recognized in accordance with accounting standards on leasing and on revenue from contracts with customers for time charter services. In addition, material elements where the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows differ from the monthly invoicing under time charter contracts are separately presented. Revenue recognized for the Majority held FSRUs includes the amortization of above market contract intangibles. Revenue recognized for Joint venture FSRUs include the amortization of deferred revenues related to the charterer's reimbursements for certain vessel modifications and drydocking costs. As a result, the timing of cash flows differs from monthly time charter invoicing.

The following table summarizes the disaggregated revenue of the Partnership by segment:

	Three months ended March 31, 2018

	Majority			FSRUs				Total

Total revenues (2)	$	34,885			10,996		—		45,881			(10,996	)	$	34,885

(1)

Eliminations reverse the proportional amounts of revenue for Joint venture FSRUs to reflect the consolidated revenues included in the consolidated income statement. The Partnership's share of the Joint venture FSRUs revenues is included in Equity in earnings (loss) of joint ventures on the consolidated income statement.

(2)

Payments made by the charterer directly to the tax authorities on behalf of the subsidiaries for advance collection of income taxes or final income tax is recorded as a component of total revenues and is disclosed separately in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

The Partnership’s risk and exposure related to uncertainty of revenues or cash flows related to its long-term time charter contracts primarily relate to the credit risk associated with the individual charterers. Payments are due under time charter contracts regardless of the demand for the charterers’ gas output or the utilization of the FSRU.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Partnership did not present disaggregated time charter revenues. Refer to note 4, for the combined time charter revenues by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Under one of the time charter contracts, the contract provided for additional payments, including a finance component, over the initial term depending upon the actual commencement date of the contract within a defined window of potential commencement dates. The net present value of the additional payments was recorded as a leased related contract asset and a contract liability.

The finance component of $72 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 is included as a component of interest income in the consolidated statement of income. The contract asset and contract liability are netted per customer.

The service related contract asset reflected in the balance sheet relates to accrued revenue for reimbursable costs for other charterers.

Refund liabilities to charterers include invoiced revenue to be refunded to charterers for estimated reimbursable costs that exceeded the actual cost incurred and for non-compliance with performance warranties in the time charter contracts that result in reduction of hire, liquidated damages or other performance related payments. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the major changes related to recognition of previously constrained revenue related to prior periods' performance obligations of $775 and repayment of $2,990 for the conclusion of an audit at the end of 2017 for the amount the charterer would reimburse for certain 2014 and 2015 costs.

7. Income tax

The Partnership is not subject to Marshall Islands corporate income taxes. The Partnership is subject to tax for earnings of its subsidiaries incorporated in Singapore, Indonesia, Colombia, Cyprus and the UK and for certain Colombian source income. The income tax expense recorded in the consolidated income statements was $2,109 and $1,755 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the income tax expense largely related to the subsidiaries in Singapore, Indonesia and Colombia. The Singapore subsidiary’s taxable income mainly arises from internal interest income. The charterer in Colombia pays certain taxes directly to the Colombian tax authorities on behalf of the Partnership’s subsidiaries that own and operate the Höegh Grace. The tax payments are a mechanism for advance collection of income taxes for the Colombian subsidiary and a final income tax on Colombian source income for the non-Colombian subsidiary. The Partnership concluded these third party payments to the tax authorities represent income taxes that must be accounted for under the US GAAP guidance for income taxes. The amount of non-cash income tax expense was $198 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position taken in a tax return will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the estimated generation of taxable income resulted in the utilization of $407 and $159, respectively, of tax loss carryforward in Indonesia which was not recognized due to the uncertainty of this tax position. As a result, a long-term income tax payable of $407 and $159 was recorded for the uncertain tax position as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Lampung facility limits, among other things, the ability of the borrower to change its business, sell or grant liens on its property including the PGN FSRU Lampung, incur additional indebtedness or guarantee other indebtedness, make investments or acquisitions, enter into intercompany transactions and make distributions.

Each Borrower must maintain

	o	Current assets greater than current liabilities as defined in the agreements, and
	o	A ratio of EBITDA to debt service (principal repayments, guarantee commission and interest expense) of a minimum of 115%

In addition, a security maintenance ratio based on the aggregate market value of the Höegh Gallant, the Höegh Grace and any additional security must be at least 125% of the aggregate outstanding loan balance. If the security maintenance ratio is not maintained, the relevant Borrower has 30 days to provide more security or to repay part of the loan to be in compliance with the ratio no later than 30 days after notice from the lenders.

As of March 31, 2018, Höegh LNG, the Partnership and each Borrower were in compliance with the financial covenants.

Under the Gallant/Grace facility, cash accounts are freely available for the use of the Borrowers, unless there is an event of default. Cash can be distributed as dividends or to service loans of owners and affiliates provided that after the distribution the Borrowers would remain in compliance with the financial covenants and security maintenance ratio. The Gallant/Grace facility limits, among other things, the ability of the Borrowers to change their business, sell or grant liens on their property including the Höegh Gallant or the Höegh Grace, incur additional indebtedness or guarantee other indebtedness, make investments or acquisitions and enter into intercompany debt that is not subordinated to the Gallant/Grace facility.

12. Financial Instruments

Fair value measurements

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash – The fair value of the cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates its carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets.

Amounts due from (to) owners and affiliates – The fair value of the non-interest bearing receivables or payables approximates their carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets since the receivables or payables are to be settled consistent with trade receivables and payables.

Derivative instruments – The fair values of the interest rates swaps are estimated based on the present value of cash flows over the term of the instruments based on the relevant LIBOR interest rate curves, adjusted for the subsidiary’s credit worthiness given the level of collateral provided and the credit worthiness of the counterparty to the derivative.

Advances (shareholder loans) to joint ventures – The fair values of the fixed rate subordinated shareholder loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities and the current credit worthiness of the joint ventures.

Long-term receivable – The fair value of long-term receivable approximates its carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets.

Lampung, Gallant and Grace facilities – The fair values of the debt are estimated based on the present value of cash flows over the term of the instruments based on the estimated currently available margins, LIBOR interest rates or applicable interest rates as of the balance sheet date for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities and the current credit worthiness of the Partnership.

Revolving credit and seller’s credit due to owners and affiliates – The fair value of the fixed rate debt is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities and the current credit worthiness of the Partnership.

The fair value estimates are categorized by a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

13. Risk management and concentrations of risk

Derivative instruments can be used in accordance with the overall risk management policy.

Foreign currency risk

All financing, interest expenses from financing and most of the Partnership’s revenue and expenditures for vessel improvements are denominated in U.S. dollars. Certain operating expenses can be denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, no derivative financial instruments have been used to manage foreign exchange risk. The Gallant time charter provides that revenues are denominated 90% in U.S. dollars and 10% in Egyptian pounds, or as otherwise agreed between the parties from time to time. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, the revenues from the Höegh Gallant were denominated 96% and 97% in U.S. dollars and 4% and 3% in Egyptian pounds, respectively. A limited amount of operating expenses was also denominated in Egyptian pounds. Due to restrictions in Egypt, exchangeability between Egyptian pounds and other currencies was more than temporarily lacking or limited during 2017 and the three months ended March 31, 2018. There are two official published rates for Egyptian pounds. The lower rate is applied in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements for revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. For all of 2017 and for the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Partnership agreed to the payment of monthly revenues denominated in Egyptian pounds that aligned with its working capital needs for the next month which reduced its foreign exchange rate exposure and the risk of loss to a minimal amount in the event Egyptian pound was devalued.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate swaps are utilized to exchange a receipt of floating interest for a payment of fixed interest to reduce the exposure to interest rate variability on its outstanding floating-rate debt. As of March 31, 2018, there are interest rate swap agreements on the Lampung, Gallant and Grace facilities’ floating rate debt that are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. As of March 31, 2018, the following interest rate swap agreements were outstanding:

HÖEGH LNG PARTNERS LP

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

Concentrations of risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Partnership to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables and derivative contracts (interest rate swaps). The maximum exposure to loss due to credit risk is the book value at the balance sheet date. The Partnership does not have a policy of requiring collateral or security. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are placed with qualified financial institutions. Periodic evaluations are performed of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions. In addition, exposure is limited by diversifying among counterparties. There are three charterers so there is a concentration of risk related to trade receivables. Credit risk related to trade receivables is limited by performing ongoing credit evaluations of the customer’s financial condition. In addition, Höegh LNG guarantees the payment of the Höegh Gallant time charter hire by EgyptCo under certain circumstances. No impairment loss was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017. While the maximum exposure to loss due to credit risk is the book value of trade receivables at the balance sheet date, should any of the time charters for the PGN FSRU Lampung, the Höegh Gallant or the Höegh Grace terminate prematurely, there could be delays in obtaining a new time charter and the rates could be lower depending upon the prevailing market conditions.

14. Commitments and contingencies

Contractual commitments

As of March 31, 2018, there were no material contractual purchase commitments.

Claims and Contingencies

Joint ventures claims and accruals

Under the Neptune and the GDF Suez Cape Ann time charters, the joint ventures undertake to ensure that the vessel meets specified performance standards at all times during the term of the time charters. The performance standards include the vessel not exceeding a maximum average daily boil-off of LNG, subject to certain contractual exclusions, as specified in the time charter. Pursuant to the charters, the hire rate is subject to deduction by the charterer by, among other things, sums due in respect of the joint ventures’ failure to satisfy the specified performance standards during the period. The charterer requested that the joint ventures calculate and present the boil-off since the beginning of the charters, compared with maximum average daily boil-off allowed under the time charter. The charters for the Neptune and GDF Suez Cape Ann started in 2009 and 2010, respectively. On September 8, 2017, the charterer notified the joint ventures that it was formally making a claim for compensation in accordance with the provisions of the charters for a stated quantity of LNG exceeding the maximum average daily boil-off since the beginning for the charters. The claim asserted a gross amount of compensation of $58 million for the excess boil-off volume but the claim recognized that the calculations for the amount required adjustment for allowable exclusions under the charters. The charterer and the joint ventures have referred the claim to arbitration. The charterer's revised claim as submitted in the arbitration request was a gross amount of $52 million, covering a shorter time period for the first performance period as defined in the time charters, and interest and expenses. Depending on interpretations of the contractual provisions including exclusions to the performance standards and based upon currently available information, it is estimated that the Partnership’s 50% share of the excess boil-off claim could range from zero or negligible amounts to approximately $29 million. The charterer could potentially seek other concessions. Accruals are recorded for loss contingencies or claims when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. As of September 30, 2017, the joint ventures determined the liability associated with the boil-off claim was probable and could be reasonably estimated resulting in a total accrual of $23.7 million which was recorded as a reduction of time charter revenues in the third quarter of 2017. The Partnership’s 50% share of the accrual was approximately $11.9 million. As of December 31, 2017, and March 31, 2018, the accrual was unchanged. Refer to note 10.

The claim may ultimately be settled through negotiation or arbitration. The joint ventures will continue to monitor this issue and adjust accruals, as might be required, based upon additional information and further developments. Höegh LNG and the other major owner guarantee the performance and payment obligations of the joint ventures under the time charters. The guarantees are joint and several for the performance obligations and several for the payment obligations. Depending on the amount and timing of the potential settlement and whether such settlement is funded by the performance guarantees by Höegh LNG and the other major owner or by the joint ventures, a settlement of the claim for boil-off with the charterer could have a material adverse effect on the joint ventures’ financial condition and results of operations. As a precaution, the joint ventures have suspended payments on their shareholder loans pending the outcome of the boil-off claim. Refer to note 8.

HÖEGH LNG PARTNERS LP

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

To the extent that an excess boil-off claim results in a settlement, the Partnership would be indemnified by Höegh LNG for its share of the cash impact of any settlement. Refer to note 11. As a result, the ultimate outcome of the boil-off claim, on an isolated basis, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial position. However, other concessions or capital improvements, if any, would not be expected to be indemnified. In addition, the suspension of the payments of the shareholder loans will reduce cash flows available to the Partnership. Furthermore, the increase in the accruals for, or the resolution of, the excess boil-off claim may have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s results of operations for that period.

Indonesian corporate income tax

Based upon the Partnership’s experience in Indonesia, tax regulations, guidance and interpretation in Indonesia may not always be clear and may be subject to alternative interpretations or changes in interpretation over time. The Partnership’s Indonesian subsidiary is subject to examination by the Indonesian tax authorities for up to five years following the completion of a fiscal year. Tax examinations may lead to ordinary course adjustments or proposed adjustments to the Partnership's taxes or tax loss carryforwards with respect to years under examination. The Partnership has recognized a provision in 2013 related to an uncertain tax position for the 2013 tax loss carryforward. It is reasonably likely within the next 12 months that the Partnership’s Indonesian subsidiary will be subject to a tax examination. Such an examination may or may not result in changes to the Partnership’s provisions on tax filings from 2013 through 2017. To date, there has been no tax audit on the Partnership’s operations in Indonesia.

PGN LNG claims including delay liquidated damages

The Partnership was indemnified by Höegh LNG for i) any hire rate payments not received under the PGN FSRU Lampung time charter for the period commencing on August 12, 2014 through the acceptance date of the PGN FSRU Lampung and ii) non-budgeted expenses (including warranty costs) incurred in connection with the PGN FSRU Lampung project prior to the date of acceptance, for certain costs related to the restatement of the Partnership’s financial statements filed with the SEC on November 30, 2015 and for certain subsequently incurred non-budgeted expenses.

No indemnification claims were filed for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Partnership received payments for filed claims for indemnification with respect to non-budgeted expenses (including the warranty provision, value added tax, withholding tax, and other non-budgeted expenses) of approximately $0.3 and $1.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, which were recorded as a contribution to equity.

Höegh Gallant claims and indemnification

In the third quarter of 2017, the Partnership began investigating with EgyptCo a performance measure included in EgyptCo’s charter with respect to the Höegh Gallant. The investigation includes whether such a performance measure is directly linked to a specified performance standard which could result in a customer claim for reduced hire or damages and legal basis for a potential claim, if any. No accrual has been recorded. The situation will be monitored and the assessment updated based on additional information and further developments.

The Partnership was indemnified by Höegh LNG for losses incurred in connection with the commencement of services under the time charter with EgyptCo (including technical issues) incurred in connection with the Höegh Gallant.

15. Issuance of common units and Series A Preferred Units

On January 26, 2018, the Partnership entered into sales agreement with the Agent. Under the terms of the sales agreement, the Partnership may offer and sell up to $120 million aggregate offering amount of common units and Series A preferred units, from time to time, through the Agent, acting as agent for the Partnership. Sales of such units may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or through a market marker other than on an exchange.

As of March 31, 2018, the Partnership had sold 154,500 common units at an average gross sales price of $18.22 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $2.8 million. As of March 31, 2018, the Partnership had sold 309,152 Series A preferred units at an average gross sales price of $26.14 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $7.9 million. The Partnership has paid an aggregate of $0.2 million in sales commissions to the Agent in connection with such sales as of March 31, 2018.

As of March 31, 2018, Höegh LNG owned 2,101,438 common units and 13,156,060 subordinated units. As of December 31, 2017, and 2016, Höegh LNG owned 2,116,060 common units and 13,156,060 subordinated units. Subordinated units are not entitled to vote for the four elected directors to the Partnership’s board of directors. The general partner has a non-economic interest and has no units.

Refer to note 17 for information on distributions to common and subordinated unitholders.

The Series A preferred units represent perpetual equity interests in the Partnership and, unlike the Partnership's debt, do not give rise to a claim for payment of a principal amount at a particular date. The Series A preferred units rank senior to the Partnership's common units and subordinated units as to the payment of distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up but junior to all of the Partnership's debt and other liabilities. The Series A preferred units have a liquidation preference of $25.00 per unit. At any time on or after October 5, 2022, the Partnership may redeem, in whole or in part, the Series A preferred units at a redemption price of $25.00 per unit plus an amount equal to all accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption. The distribution rate on the Series A preferred units is 8.75% per annum of the $25.00 per unit value (equivalent to $2.1875 per annum per unit). The distributions are cumulative and recorded when declared. However, since the Series A preferred units rank senior to the Partnership's common and subordinated units, the portion of net income, equivalent to the Series A preferred units' paid and undeclared distributions for that period, is reflected as Preferred unitholders' interest in net income on the consolidated statement of income. Distributions are payable quarterly, when, and if declared by the Partnership's board of directors out of legally available funds for such purpose. Holders of the Series A preferred units generally have no voting rights. However, if and whenever distributions payable on the Series A preferred units are in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, holders of Series A Preferred Units will be entitled to replace one of the members of our board of directors appointed by our general partner with a person nominated by such holders.

Effective June 3, 2016, the Partnership granted 21,500 phantom units to the CEO/CFO of the Partnership. One-third of the phantom units vest as of December 31, 2017, November 30, 2018 and November 30, 2019, respectively. The phantom units impact the diluted weighted average units outstanding. In 2017 however, the increase in weighted average number of units was not significant enough to change the earnings per unit. Therefore, the basic and diluted earnings per unit was the same.

HÖEGH LNG PARTNERS LP

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

As of March 31, 2018, the Partnership has issued and outstanding 19,927,542 common units, 4,909,152 Series A preferred units, 13,156,060 subordinated units. 17,826,104 of the common units were held by the public and 2,101,438 of the common units were held by Höegh LNG. As of March 31, 2018, Höegh LNG owned all of the 13,156,060 subordinated units. The General Partner has a non-economic interest and has no units.

Earnings per unit is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of units outstanding during the applicable period.

The common unitholders’ and subordinated unitholders’ interest in net income are calculated as if all net income were distributed according to terms of the Partnership’s Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”), regardless of whether those earnings would or could be distributed. The Partnership Agreement does not provide for the distribution of net income; rather, it provides for the distribution of available cash. Available cash, a contractual defined term, generally means all cash on hand at the end of the quarter after deduction for cash reserves established by the board of directors and the Partnership’s subsidiaries to i) provide for the proper conduct of the business (including reserves for future capital expenditures and for the anticipated credit needs); ii) comply with applicable law, any of the debt instruments or other agreements; iii) provide funds for payments on the Series A preferred units; and iv) provide funds for distributions to the unitholders for any one or more of the next four quarters. Therefore, the earnings per unit is not indicative of future cash distributions that may be made. Unlike available cash, net income is affected by non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization, unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments and unrealized gains or losses on foreign exchange transactions.

During the subordination period, the common units will have the right under the Partnership Agreement to receive distributions of available cash from operating surplus in an amount equal to the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.3375 per unit, plus any arrearages in the payment of the minimum quarterly distribution on the common units from prior quarters, before any distributions of available cash from operating surplus may be made on the subordinated units. Distribution arrearages do not accrue on the subordinated units.

Distributions of available cash from operating surplus are to be made in the following manner for any quarter during the subordination period:

•

first, 100.0% to the common unitholders, pro rata, until the Partnership distributes for each outstanding common unit an amount equal to the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.3375 for that quarter;

•

second, 100.0% to the common unitholders, pro rata, until the Partnership distributes for each outstanding common unit an amount equal to any arrearages in payment of the minimum quarterly distribution on the common units for any prior quarters during the subordination period; and

•

third, 100.0% to the subordinated unitholders, pro rata, until the Partnership distributes for each subordinated unit an amount equal to the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.3375 for that quarter.

In addition, Höegh LNG currently holds all of the IDRs in the Partnership. IDRs represent the rights to receive an increasing percentage of quarterly distributions of available cash for operating surplus after the minimum quarterly distribution and the target distribution levels have been achieved.

•

the Partnership has distributed available cash from operating surplus to the common and subordinated unitholders in an amount

If for any quarter during the subordination period:

equal to the minimum quarterly distribution; and

•

the Partnership has distributed available cash from operating surplus on outstanding common units in an amount necessary to eliminate any cumulative arrearages in payment of the minimum quarterly distribution;

then, the Partnership will distribute any additional available cash from operating surplus for that quarter among the unitholders and the holders of the IDRs in the following manner:

•

first, 100.0% to all unitholders, pro rata, until each unitholder receives a total of $0.388125 per unit for that quarter (the “first target distribution”);

•

second, 85.0% to all unitholders, pro rata, and 15.0% to the holders of the IDRs, pro rata, until each unitholder receives a total of $0.421875 per unit for that quarter (the “second target distribution”);

•

third, 75.0% to all unitholders, pro rata, and 25.0% to the holders of the IDRs, pro rata, until each unitholder receives a total of $0.50625 per unit for that quarter (the “third target distribution”); and

•

thereafter, 50.0% to all unitholders, pro rata, and 50.0% to the holders of the IDRs, pro rata.

In each case, the amount of the target distribution set forth above is exclusive of any distributions to common unitholders to eliminate any cumulative arrearages in payment of the minimum quarterly distribution. The percentage interests set forth above assume that the Partnership does not issue additional classes of equity securities.

18. Subsequent events

On May 15, 2018, the Partnership paid a quarterly cash distribution with respect to the quarter ended March 31, 2018 of $0.44 per common and subordinated unit. The total amount of the distribution was $15.0 million.

On May 15, 2018, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $2.8 million, or $0.546875 per Series A preferred unit, for the period commencing on February 15, 2018 to May 14, 2018.

On May 16, 2018, the Partnership repaid $6.5 million on the revolving credit facility using part of the net proceeds of the ATM program.

For the period from April 2, 2018 to May 29, 2018, the Partnership had sold 273,831 Series A preferred units under our ATM program at an average gross sales price of $25.62 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $6.9 million. For the period from April 2, 2018 to May 29, 2018, the Partnership had sold 900 common units under our ATM program at an average gross sales price of $18.10 per unit and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $0.02 million. The Partnership has paid an aggregate of $0.1 million in sales commissions to the Agent in connection with such sales in the period from April 2, 2018 to May 29, 2018. From the commencement of the ATM program, the Partnership has sold 582,983 Series A preferred units and 155,400 common units, and received net proceeds of $14.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The compensation paid to the Agent for such sales were $0.3 million.
