Martin Midstream Partners Reports Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results and Revised Guidance


  • Quarterly Distribution Coverage Ratio of 1.31 times
  • Second Quarter Net Loss from Continuing Operations of $10.6 million
  • Improved Pro-Forma Total Leverage to 5.12 times
  • Revised Guidance for 2019

KILGORE, Texas, July 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq:MMLP) (the “Partnership”) announced today its financial results for the second quarter of 2019.

Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership, said, "During the second quarter, the Partnership continued to execute on announced strategic initiatives designed to strengthen the balance sheet and increase liquidity.  Since mid-2018 the Partnership, through a series of divestitures and the acquisition of Martin Transport, Inc., has received net proceeds of approximately $283.0 million, used to reduce borrowings under the revolving credit facility.  As a result, the Partnership will benefit approximately $15.6 million from interest expense savings.

"Addressing the second quarter of 2019, the Partnership generated adjusted EBITDA of approximately $25.2 million, which does not include adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations, and a total distribution coverage ratio of 1.31 times, as the Partnership continued to encounter challenges across all four operating segments.  The Terminalling and Storage segment faced reduced contract renewal rates as a result of ongoing depressed activity in the Gulf of Mexico.  The Sulfur segment experienced weak demand for fertilizer products in the last month of the quarter attributable to a shortened planting season caused by rain and flooding.  Historically, the second quarter is the weakest for our continuing operations in the Natural Gas Liquids segment as prices contract during the seasonal buying period, negatively impacting inventory valuation.  Finally, the Transportation segment saw softness in the land division compared to guidance attributable to reduced demand in the refining and chemicals sector, offset by solid performance in the marine division due to continuing strong fleet utilization and increasing day rates.

"In conclusion, while the Partnership experienced headwinds within our operating environments, we have effectively executed our strategic initiatives to strengthen the balance sheet by reducing leverage.  In addition, we successfully amended and extended our revolving credit facility recently which improves liquidity and, coupled with the Partnership’s commitment to capital discipline, provides support for near term opportunities and long term success."

The Partnership reported a net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter 2019 of $10.6 million, a loss of $0.27 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership had a net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter 2018 of $9.5 million, or $0.31 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership had a net loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $15.4 million, a loss of $0.39 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership had a net loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $1.5 million, or $0.17 per limited partner unit.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2019 was $25.2 million compared to the second quarter of 2018 of $22.7 million.  Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $50.8 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $58.8 million.

Distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2019 was $8.0 million compared to the second quarter of 2018 of $4.7 million.  Distributable cash flow from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $12.7 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $23.4 million.

The Partnership had a net loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2019 of $180.6 million, a loss of $4.55 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership's net loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2019 includes a non-cash charge related to the disposition of its natural gas storage assets of $178.8 million.  The Partnership had net income from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018 of $4.9 million, or $0.13 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership had a net loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $179.5 million, a loss of $4.52 per limited partner unit.  The Partnership's loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 includes a non-cash charge related to the disposition of its natural gas storage assets of $178.8 million.  The Partnership had net income from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $12.0 million, or $0.31 per limited partner unit.

Adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations for the second quarter of 2019 was $5.5 million compared to the second quarter 2018 of $10.1 million.  Adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $10.7 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $21.2 million.

Distributable cash flow from discontinued operations for the second quarter of 2019 was $4.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2018 of $9.6 million.  Distributable cash flow from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $9.8 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $20.5 million.

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, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA from Discontinued Operations.  Certain items excluded from EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations 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, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations 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 and Distributable Cash Flow from Discontinued Operations.  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, adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations, distributable cash flow, and distributable cash flow from discontinued operations, 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.
