Martin Midstream Partners Reports 2018 Second Quarter Financial Results
  • Agreement to Divest West Texas LPG Pipeline Interest
  • Improved Pro-Forma Total Leverage to 4.36 times
  • Quarterly Distribution Coverage Ratio In-Line with Guidance

KILGORE, Texas, July 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq:MMLP) (the "Partnership") announced today its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership said, "I am pleased to announce that the Partnership has entered into an agreement with ONEOK, Inc. to sell our 20 percent non-operating partnership interests in the West Texas LPG Pipeline Limited Partnership for $195.0 million.  We expect the transaction to close on July 31, 2018 and will use net proceeds of approximately $193.7 million to reduce outstanding borrowings under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility.  Accordingly, our pro-forma leverage is 4.36 times compared to actual leverage of 5.46 times at June 30, 2018.  In addition, the Partnership’s forecasted growth capital expenditures will be reduced by approximately $24.2 million for the remainder of 2018.

"Addressing our second quarter 2018 performance, the Partnership generated a distribution coverage ratio of 0.56 times.  While cash flow trailed guidance by approximately $5.7 million, our coverage ratio was substantially in line with our internal forecast based on lower maintenance capital expenditures.  Our second quarter results include a one-time negative inventory adjustment of $3.9 million in the fertilizer division of our Sulfur Services segment.  The adjustment is a result of utilizing newly implemented three-dimensional stockpile measurement technology to determine dry bulk inventory.  Partially offsetting the inventory adjustment was better than forecasted Marine Transportation performance driven by improving day rates and fleet utilization.

"Based on lower project costs and timing differences we are reducing our full year maintenance capital expenditure guidance by $5.0 million to $24.3 million.  After giving effect to the transaction, our six month pro-forma distribution coverage ratio is 1.01 times and our full year forecasted ratio remains at 1.00 times.

"Management continues to be focused on improving the leverage profile of the Partnership.  By executing the pipeline divestiture we achieve our goal of less than 4.50 times."

The Partnership had net loss for the second quarter 2018 of $7.2 million, a loss of $0.18 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership had net income for the second quarter 2017 of $1.0 million, or $0.03 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership's adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter 2018 was $29.4 million compared to adjusted EBITDA from for the second quarter 2017 of $33.0 million.

The Partnership had net income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $5.6 million, or $0.14 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership had net income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $14.6 million, or $0.38 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership's adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $74.2 million compared to adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $79.8 million.

The Partnership's distributable cash flow for the second quarter 2018 was $11.0 million compared to distributable cash flow for the second quarter 2017 of $19.6 million.

The Partnership's distributable cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $37.6 million compared to distributable cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $49.9 million.

Revenues for the second quarter 2018 were $216.6 million compared to the second quarter 2017 of $193.9 million.  Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $500.8 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $447.2 million.

Distributable cash flow, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures which are explained in greater detail below under the heading "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information." The Partnership has also included below a table entitled "Reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Distributable Cash Flow" in order to show the components of these non-GAAP financial measures and their reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measurement.

Included with this press release are the Partnership's consolidated and condensed financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and certain prior periods.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 25, 2018.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements about the Partnership's outlook and all other statements in this release other than historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements and all references to financial estimates rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside the Partnership's control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements.  While the Partnership believes that the assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are inherent difficulties in anticipating or predicting certain important factors.  A discussion of these factors, including risks and uncertainties, is set forth in the Partnership's annual and quarterly reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Partnership disclaims any intention or obligation to revise any forward-looking statements, including financial estimates, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise except where required to do so by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Partnership's management uses a variety of financial and operational measurements other than its financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") to analyze its performance. These include: (1) net income before interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), (2) adjusted EBITDA and (3) distributable cash flow.  The Partnership's management views these measures as important performance measures of core profitability for its operations and the ability to generate and distribute cash flow, and as key components of its internal financial reporting. The Partnership's management believes investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.  Certain items excluded from EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing an entity's financial performance, such as cost of capital and historical costs of depreciable assets. The Partnership has included information concerning EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because it provides investors and management with additional information to better understand the following: financial performance of the Partnership's assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis; the Partnership's operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other similarly situated entities; and the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects.  The Partnership's method of computing adjusted EBITDA may not be the same method used to compute similar measures reported by other entities. The economic substance behind the Partnership's use of adjusted EBITDA is to measure the ability of the Partnership's assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs, support its indebtedness and make distributions to its unitholders.

Distributable Cash Flow.  Distributable cash flow is a significant performance measure used by the Partnership's management and by external users of its financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to compare basic cash flows generated by the Partnership to the cash distributions it expects to pay unitholders.  Distributable cash flow is also an important financial measure for the Partnership's unitholders since it serves as an indicator of the Partnership's success in providing a cash return on investment. Specifically, this financial measure indicates to investors whether or not the Partnership is generating cash flow at a level that can sustain or support an increase in its quarterly distribution rates.  Distributable cash flow is also a quantitative standard used throughout the investment community with respect to publicly-traded partnerships because the value of a unit of such an entity is generally determined by the unit's yield, which in turn is based on the amount of cash distributions the entity pays to a unitholder.

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure presented in accordance with GAAP. The Partnership's method of computing these measures may not be the same method used to compute similar measures reported by other entities.
