MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS REPORTS
2010 FOURTH QUARTER
 AND ANNUAL FINANCIAL RESULTS

KILGORE, Texas, March 2, 2011/GlobeNewswire/ -- Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (NASDAQ: MMLP) (the “Partnership”) announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2010.

The Partnership reported net income for the fourth quarter of 2010 of $6.5 million, or $0.30 per limited partner unit. This compared to net income for the fourth quarter of 2009 of $2.0 million, or $.15 per limited partner unit. Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2010 were $262.1 million compared to $200.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2009.  Fourth quarter 2010 net income was negatively impacted by a $4.0 million, or $0.23 per limited partner unit, non-cash derivatives loss from certain commodity and interest rate swaps that are not accounted for using hedge accounting.  Fourth quarter 2009 net income was negatively impacted by a $0.2 million, or $0.01 per limited partner unit, non-cash derivatives loss from certain commodity and interest rate swaps that are not accounted for using hedge accounting.

The Partnership reported net income for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $16.0 million, or $0.63 per limited partner unit.  This compared to net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $22.2 million, or $1.17 per limited partner unit.  Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $912.1 million, compared to revenues of $662.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Net income for the year ended December 31, 2010 was negatively impacted by $4.2 million, or $0.24 per limited partner unit, due to the payment of fees for the early extinguishment of interest rate swaps in the first quarter 2010 ($3.8 million) and of non-cash derivatives losses from certain commodity and interest rate swaps that are not accounted for using hedge accounting ($0.4 million). Net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was negatively impacted by $2.5 million, or $0.15 per limited partner unit, of non-cash derivatives losses from certain commodity and interest rate swaps that are not accounted for using hedge accounting.  Net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was positively impacted by $6.0 million, or $0.41 per limited partner unit, of gains from the sale of property, plant and equipment ($5.0 million) and on the involuntary conversion of property, plant and equipment ($1.0 million) resulting from Hurricanes Gustav and Ike.

The Partnership’s distributable cash flow for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $22.2 million and for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $65.5 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.

Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership, said “I am pleased with the Partnership’s fourth quarter and year end 2010 performance.  The fourth quarter 2010 was our best quarter during the year in terms of cash flow generation as we achieved a strong distribution coverage ratio of 1.53 times.  That put us in a position to increase our most recent distribution to unitholders for the first time in nine quarters.  Further, for the year ended 2010, all four of our operating segments met or exceeded planned performance giving us a solid distribution coverage ratio of 1.16 times.

During the fourth quarter, our sulfur services segment rebounded from the seasonal weakness we typically see in the third quarter.  We saw sulfur experience a solid pricing recovery based on high demand across agricultural markets both foreign and domestic.  We expect this demand for our sulfur and sulfur-based fertilizer products to remain strong into 2011.  Our Marine Transportation segment was also strong during the fourth quarter.  Our inland fleet continues to operate near full utilization; and day rate pricing for certain products we move has recently increased.  Given the current condition of the oil refining business we feel good about our inland fleet for 2011.  On the offshore side, our work on the Macondo disaster recovery is now complete and thus we have two offshore vessels that will seek opportunities in the spot market.

Looking forward, several organic growth initiatives combined with some additional contracting have us well positioned for 2011.  Specifically, we expect that planned growth in our Natural Gas Services and our Sulfur Services segments will increase distributable cash flow this year.  Also, we recently added incremental fee-based contracts for our prilling capacity within our Sulfur Services segment and renegotiated a contract with a significant sulfur buyer to reduce our exposure to price fluctuation as we continue to achieve our long-stated goal of becoming a more fee-based Partnership.  Finally, as previously disclosed, low cost multiple growth projects are underway at our Cross lubricant processing facility that will be completed during calendar 2012.”

Due to FASB ASC 850, the Partnership is required to account for the Cross Oil asset contribution as a transfer of net assets between entities under common control.  As such, the revenues, earnings and distributable cash flow data for periods prior to the November 2009 contribution date as set forth above and elsewhere herein require adjustment to be viewed on a comparable year over year basis.  Before giving effect to the Cross transaction, revenue for the year ended December 31, 2009 would have been $633.8 million, compared to revenues of $1.2 billion for the year ended December 31, 2008.  Additionally, net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 would have been $20.5 million compared to net income of $42.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.  Finally, distributable cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2009 would have been $49.4 million.  For a more detailed reconciliation of the Cross asset acquisition, please refer to Item 6. Selected Financial Data in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 2, 2011.

Included with this press release are the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2010 and certain prior periods.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2011.

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 its 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 SEC.  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.
 
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 the 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 SEC.  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: net income (as reported in statements of operations), plus depreciation and amortization, amortization of debt discount, and amortization of deferred debt issue costs (as reported in statements of cash flows), plus (less) deferred income taxes (as reported in statements of cash flows), plus costs related to the early extinguishment of interest rate swaps (as reported under the caption “Long-Term Debt and Capital Leases” in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2011), plus distribution equivalents from unconsolidated entities (as described below), plus (less) invested cash in unconsolidated entities (as described below), less equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities (as reported in statements of operations), plus 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2011), plus (less) gain/(loss) on disposition or sale of property, plant and equipment (as reported in statements of cash flows), less payments for plant turn around costs (as reported in statements of cash flows),  plus unit-based compensation (as reported in statements of changes in capital).
 
The Partnership’s distribution equivalents from unconsolidated entities is calculated as distributions from unconsolidated entities (as reported in statements of cash flows), plus return of investments from unconsolidated entities (as reported in statements of cash flows), plus distributions in-kind from unconsolidated entities (as reported in statements of cash flows).  For the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s distributions from unconsolidated entities, return of investments from unconsolidated entities and distributions in-kind from equity investments were $0.0 million, $0.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively.  For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s distributions from unconsolidated entities, return of investments from unconsolidated entities and distributions in-kind from equity investments were $0.0 million, $2.5 million and $10.5 million, respectively.
 
The Partnership’s invested cash in unconsolidated entities 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2011). For the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s distributions from (contributions to) unconsolidated entities for operations and capital expenditures in unconsolidated entities were $(1.4) million and $1.2 million, respectively.  For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s distributions from (contributions to) unconsolidated entities for operations and capital expenditures in unconsolidated entities were $(0.7) million and $3.2 million, respectively.
