KILGORE, Texas, Nov. 5, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Martin Midstream Partners L.P. MMLP (the "Partnership") announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

The Partnership reported net income for the third quarter of 2012 of $72.4 million, or $3.07 per limited partner unit. This compared to net income for the third quarter of 2011 of $5.4 million, or $0.20 per limited partner unit. The Partnership reported net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 of $90.1 million, or $3.73 per limited partner unit. This compared to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of $21.5 million, or $0.87 per limited partner unit.

The Partnership reported income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2012 of $8.8 million, or $0.44 per limited partner unit. This compared to income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2011 of $3.1 million, or $0.11 per limited partner unit. The Partnership reported income from discontinued operations for the third quarter of 2012 of $63.6 million, or $2.63 per limited partner unit. This compared to income from discontinued operations for the third quarter of 2011 of $2.3 million, or $0.09 per limited partner unit. Income from discontinued operations was positively impacted by a gain on the sale of the Prism Assets of $62.3 million during the third quarter of 2012. Revenues for the third quarter of 2012 were $317.9 million compared to $287.6 million for the third quarter of 2011.

The Partnership reported income from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 of $22.8 million, or $0.94 per limited partner unit. This compared to the income from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of $13.8 million, or $0.56 per limited partner unit. The Partnership reported income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 of $67.3 million, or $2.79 per limited partner unit. This compared to income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of $7.7 million, or $0.31 per limited partner unit. Income from discontinued operations was positively impacted by a gain on the sale of the Prism Assets of $61.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $920.2 million compared to $800.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

The Partnership's distributable cash flow for the third quarter of 2012 was $17.4 million. The Partnership's distributable cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $62.2 million. Distributable cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure which is explained in greater detail below under "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information." The Partnership has also included below a table entitled "Distributable Cash Flow" in order to show the components of this non-GAAP financial measure and its reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measurement.

The Partnership has previously reported the completion of the sale of its East Texas and Northwest Louisiana gas gathering and processing assets (collectively "Prism Assets") on July 31, 2012 for net cash proceeds of $273.3 million. The Partnership has retrospectively adjusted its prior period consolidated financial statements to comparably classify the amounts related to the net assets and operations and cash flows of the Prism Assets as assets held for sale and discontinued operations, respectively. The Partnership has classified the Prism Assets, including related liabilities as held for sale at December 31, 2011, and has presented the results of operations and cash flows as discontinued operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 

Included with this press release are the Partnership's consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 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 November 5, 2012.

Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of Martin Midstream Partners, said, "The Partnership had a very productive third quarter.  Our existing core assets performed at or above plan across all segments.  Further, operations were positively impacted by new infrastructure at our Corpus Christi crude oil terminal and our vacuum tower unit at our Cross facility.  Both of these assets came on line in the second quarter and have exceeded our initial cash flow run-rate expectations.  For the quarter, our distribution coverage ratio was 0.96 times from continuing operations. This is ahead of forecast for our third quarter, which typically experiences seasonality from the fertilizer side of our Sulfur Services segment.

"During the third quarter we successfully completed the divestiture of our natural gas gathering and processing assets which provided for balance sheet improvement targeted for future growth.  As we demonstrated in October, we used some of this capacity to continue to grow our assets through two drop down transactions we executed with Martin Resource Management (MRMC).  The purchase of the Cross Oil lubricant packaging plant will have an immediate positive impact on our distributable cash flow. Likewise, we believe the acquisition of the remaining equity interests in Redbird Gas Storage LLC will provide long-term fee-based value enhancement for our unit holders.  Our Partnership will further benefit from MRMC agreeing to support and enhance the accretion of these acquisitions by suspending their incentive distribution rights in an amount totaling $18 million commencing in the fourth quarter of 2012.

"Lastly, as previously announced, we are pleased that all of the shareholder litigation at Martin Resource Management Corporation has been fully settled. Management is very excited about this development, and we are looking forward to growing with our partners as we move into the future."

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements about Martin Midstream Partners' 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 its control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. While MMLP 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. Martin Midstream Partners 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.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Partnership reports its financial results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, from time to time, the Partnership uses certain non-GAAP financial measures such as distributable cash flow because the Partnership's management believes that this measure may provide users of this financial information with meaningful comparisons between current results and prior reported results and a meaningful measure of Partnership's cash available to pay distributions. Distributable cash flow should not be considered an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. Distributable cash flow is not intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor is it presented as an alternative to income from continuing operations. Furthermore, it should not be seen as a measure of liquidity or a substitute for comparable metrics prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information may constitute non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the Partnership has presented herein, and will present in other information it publishes that contains this non-GAAP financial measure, a reconciliation of this measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

The Partnership has included below a table entitled "Distributable Cash Flow" in order to show the components of this non-GAAP financial measure and its reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure. The Partnership calculates distributable cash flow as follows:

(1)     net income from continuing operations (as reported in statements of operations); plus depreciation and amortization; plus loss on sale of property, plant and equipment; plus amortization of debt discount and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs (all as reported in statements of cash flows); less payments of installment notes payable and capital lease obligations expenditures (as described below); plus distribution equivalents from unconsolidated entities (as described below); less Mont Belvieu indemnity escrow payment (as described below); plus debt prepayment premium (as described below); less gain on sale of equity method investment; plus equity in losses of unconsolidated entities (as reported in statements of operations); less payments for plant turnaround costs (as reported in statements of cash flows); less maintenance capital expenditures (as reported under the caption "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on November 5, 2012); plus unit-based compensation (as reported in statements of changes in capital); plus invested cash in unconsolidated entities (as described below); and

(2)     net income from discontinued operations (as reported in statements of operations); plus depreciation and amortization; less gain on sale of property, plant and equipment; less gain on sale of discontinued operations; less equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities (all as reported in Note 4 under the caption "Notes to the Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements" in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on November 5, 2012); less non-cash deferred tax benefit (as described below); less non-cash mark-to-market on derivatives (as reported in statements of cash flows); less maintenance capital expenditures (as reported under the caption "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on November 5, 2012); plus distribution equivalents from unconsolidated entities and invested cash in unconsolidated entities (both as described below).

The Partnership's payments of installment notes payable and capital lease obligations is calculated as payments of notes payable and capital lease obligations (as reported in the statement of cash flows), less the early extinguishment of notes payable of $6.3 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Partnership incurred a debt prepayment premium of $2.2 million related to the early redemption of $25.0 million of Senior Notes and $0.3 million related to the early retirement of a note payable on certain marine transportation assets.

The Partnership's distribution equivalents from unconsolidated entities from continuing operations is calculated as return of investments from unconsolidated entities (calculated as the amount reported in statements of cash flows less a $2.0 million purchase price adjustment recorded as a return of investment by the Partnership in the statement of cash flows for the period ended September 30, 2012). 

The Partnership's distribution equivalents from unconsolidated entities from discontinued operations is calculated as return of investments from unconsolidated entities, plus distributions in-kind from unconsolidated entities (all as reported under the caption "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on November 5, 2012). 

For the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Partnership's distributions from unconsolidated entities, return of investments from unconsolidated entities, and distributions in-kind from equity investments (from both continuing and discontinued operations) were $0.0 million, $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Partnership's distributions from unconsolidated entities, return of investments from unconsolidated entities, and distributions in-kind from equity investments (from both continuing and discontinued operations) were $0.0 million, $3.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively.

The Partnership's invested cash in unconsolidated entities from continuing operations is calculated as distributions from (contributions to) unconsolidated entities for operations (as reported in statements of cash flows), plus expansion capital expenditures in unconsolidated entities (as reported under the caption "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on November 5, 2012). 

The Partnership's invested cash in unconsolidated entities from discontinued operations is calculated as distributions from (contributions to) unconsolidated entities for operations, plus expansion capital expenditures in unconsolidated entities (all as reported under the caption "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on November 5, 2012).

For the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Partnership's distributions from (contributions to) unconsolidated entities for operations and expansion capital expenditures in unconsolidated entities were (from both continuing and discontinued operations) ($7.2) million and $5.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Partnership's distributions from (contributions to) unconsolidated entities for operations and expansion capital expenditures in unconsolidated entities were (from both continuing and discontinued operations) ($25.8) million and $25.9 million, respectively.

The Partnership's non-cash deferred tax benefit of $1.6 million and $1.9 million is included in income from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

The Partnership's Mont Belvieu indemnity escrow payment represents the final proceeds from the 2009 sale of certain assets comprising the Mont Belvieu railcar unloading facility.
