MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS REPORTS
INCREASED DISTRIBUTABLE CASH FLOW AND ADJUSTED EBITDA
IN 2015 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

Distributable cash flow from continuing operations increased 71% compared to the first quarter of 2014
Distribution increase of $0.0275, or 3.5% per unit, compared to the distribution paid in the first quarter of 2014
Adjusted EBITDA of $50.4 million representing an increase of 29% compared to the first quarter of 2014

KILGORE, Texas, April 29, 2015 (GlobeNewswire) -- Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq: MMLP) (the "Partnership") announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015.

Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of Martin Midstream Partners, said, “I am pleased with our start to 2015 and the Partnership’s first quarter results. The Partnership finished the first quarter with a distribution coverage ratio of 1.12 times. This solid performance included, for the first time since the fourth quarter 2012, paying incentive distribution rights totaling $3.7 million to our general partner. Across all segments, our distributable cash flow grew over 70% compared to the first quarter of last year. This was primarily attributable to strong cash flow from the acquisitions we made last year in natural gas storage and NGL pipeline transportation.

"Looking at our operating segments, Terminalling and Storage outperformed internal expectations during the quarter. This performance was driven by higher than projected throughput at our Corpus Christi crude terminal and lower than forecasted expenses at the shore based terminals and the Smackover refinery. Likewise, the Marine Transportation segment, in particular our offshore fleet, performed well during the quarter. In Natural Gas Services, our storage assets were again ahead of planned performance, however, offsetting performance was lower than anticipated volumes and margins across our NGL businesses. Our Sulfur Services segment met plan even as the fertilizer business experienced weather related fertilizer application delays.

"Looking ahead to the second quarter, we expect to realize a delayed cash flow benefit from later than normal fertilizer application which should also serve to reduce some of the seasonality we typically experience. Additionally, we are optimistic that the lubricant packaging landscape will continue to improve. Pertaining to growth projects, discussions with our customers in both Terminalling and Storage and Natural Gas Services segments have gained momentum during the first quarter; and it appears possible that we will exceed our originally forecasted growth capital expenditure budget for 2015."

The Partnership's distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2015 was $37.1 million compared to distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2014 of $21.7 million, an increase of 71%.

The Partnership's adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2015 was $50.4 million compared to adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2014 of $39.0 million, an increase of 29%. Net income for the first quarter of 2015 was $17.2 million, or $0.37 per limited partner unit. Net income for the first quarter of 2014 was $11.8 million, or $0.43 per limited partner unit.

On February 12, 2015, the Partnership exited the natural gas liquids floating storage and trans-loading businesses as a result of the sale of its six liquefied petroleum gas pressure barges, collectively referred to as the "Floating Storage Assets", for $41.3 million. The Partnership recorded a gain on the disposition of $1.5 million.

The Partnership's distributable cash flow and adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations related to the Floating Storage Assets for the first quarter of both 2015 and 2014 was negative $0.2 million. The Partnership had net income from discontinued operations related to the Floating Storage Assets for the first quarter of 2015 of $1.2




million, or $0.03 per limited partner unit. Net income from discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2015 was positively affected by a gain on the disposition of the Floating Storage Assets of $1.5 million. This compared to a net loss from discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2014 of $0.6 million, or $0.02 per limited partner unit.
    
Due to significantly lower natural gas liquid prices, revenues for the first quarter of 2015 were $305.4 million compared to $484.8 million for the first quarter of 2014.

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 financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2015 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 April 29, 2015.
    
Quarterly Cash Distribution
 
The quarterly cash distribution of $0.8125 per common unit, which was announced on April 23, 2015, is payable on May 15, 2015 to common unitholders of record as of the close of business on May 8, 2015. The ex-dividend date for the cash distribution is May 6, 2015. This distribution reflects an annualized distribution rate of $3.25 per unit.

About Martin Midstream Partners
    
The Partnership is a publicly traded limited partnership with a diverse set of operations focused primarily in the United States Gulf Coast region. The Partnership's primary business segments include: (1) terminalling, storage and packaging services for petroleum products and by-products; (2) natural gas services, including liquids transportation and distribution services and natural gas storage; (3) sulfur and sulfur-based products processing, manufacturing, marketing and distribution; and (4) marine transportation services for petroleum products and by-products.

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.

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.

Additional information concerning the Partnership is available on the Partnership's website at www.martinmidstream.com.
