(Nasdaq:MMLP) (the “Partnership”) today announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2020.“We are pleased with our second quarter results as we continue to navigate through the crisis brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic,” commented Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership. “Entering into the quarter we were beginning to see the negative impacts of reduced refinery utilization on our businesses. However, as expected, the performance of our fertilizer division offset a portion of the impact as sales were strong through the corn planting season. Overall we remain confident in our diversified business model during these challenging times and fully expect to meet our guidance, although the uncertainty around containment of the virus and the length of the disruption to our economy and society continues to blur our line of sight for the near future. I want to commend our team for their commitment to safe and reliable operations that protect the health of our workforce and business partners while continuing to deliver positive results.“Finally, I would like to thank our lenders and noteholders for the support they have given the Partnership through the amendment of our revolving credit facility and the refinancing of our senior notes by the exchange offer that was launched July 9th. As previously announced, the early participation results were 92.045%, slightly below the 95.0% requirement under the Restructuring Support Agreement. However, we are optimistic the threshold percentage will be met prior to the expiration date and anticipate settling the exchange on August 12th. Although we regret the need to reduce the cash distribution due to leverage covenant conditions contained in the revolving credit facility, the Partnership’s extended debt maturity profile and improved liquidity allow us to continue to strengthen our balance sheet and reduce leverage while focusing on our long-term vision for the business.”SECOND QUARTER 2020 OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENTTERMINALLING AND STORAGE (“T&S”)T&S Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $3.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively.Adjusted segment EBITDA for T&S was $10.6 million and $12.3 million for the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, reflecting reduced volumes in the lubricants business related to lower demand in the oil field and construction industries due to COVID-19, expired capital recovery fees at the Smackover Refinery and decreased fees related to a crude pipeline gathering rate adjustment.TRANSPORTATIONTransportation Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $0.6 million and $3.3 million, respectively.Adjusted segment EBITDA for Transportation was $4.9 and $8.7 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, reflecting lower land transportation load count and lower marine utilization related to demand destruction and lower refinery utilization as a result of COVID-19.SULFUR SERVICESSulfur Services Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $7.4 million and $5.3 million, respectively.Adjusted segment EBITDA for Sulfur Services was $10.8 and $8.6 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively, reflecting increased volumes in the fertilizer business slightly offset by reduced sulfur volumes due to lower refinery utilization impacted by demand destruction around COVID-19.NATURAL GAS LIQUIDS (“NGL”)NGL Operating Income (Loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1.1 million and $(3.4) million, respectively.Adjusted segment EBITDA from continuing operations for NGL was $1.6 million and $(0.2) million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, reflecting an increase in volumes and margins in 2020 and losses in 2019 from commodity hedging contracts related to activities in the butane optimization business.UNALLOCATED SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE (“USGA”)USGA expenses included in operating income were $4.4 million and $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively.USGA expenses included in adjusted EBITDA were $4.0 million and $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively, reflecting a decrease in professional fees.2020 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE UPDATEThe majority of our refinery services are focused on the Gulf Coast Region whose states have reopened their economies. However, the impact on refinery utilization due to demand destruction related to the current increase in COVID-19 cases remains unclear. As a result, the Partnership is not providing detailed segment guidance for 2020 but instead providing an estimated range for Adjusted EBITDA, Expansion Capital Expenditures and Maintenance Capital Expenditures.1 On July 9, 2020, the Partnership executed a long-term terminalling service agreement with a third-party customer that requires upgrades to a tank at our Tampa terminal. Expansion Cap Ex guidance range increased by ~$2.0 million related to those upgrades.The Partnership has not provided comparable GAAP financial information on a forward-looking basis because it would require the Partnership to create estimated ranges on a GAAP basis, which would entail unreasonable effort as the adjustments required to reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP measures cannot be predicted with a reasonable degree of certainty but may include, among others, costs related to debt amendments and unusual charges, expenses and gains. Some or all of those adjustments could be significant.LIQUIDITYAt June 30, 2020, the Partnership had $181 million drawn on its $400 million revolving credit facility, an $11 million increase from March 31, 2020. Accordingly, the Partnership’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the revolving credit facility, was 4.8 times on June 30, 2020 compared to 4.7 times on March 31, 2020. The Partnership is in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2020.QUARTERLY CASH DISTRIBUTIONThe Partnership has declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.005 per unit for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The distribution is payable on August 14, 2020 to common unitholders of record as of the close of business on August 7, 2020. The ex-dividend date for the cash distribution is August 6, 2020.COVID-19 RESPONSEThe Partnership initiated protocols in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which include work from home initiatives to protect the health and safety of our employees as well as the communities where we operate, travel restrictions, and training personnel regarding preventative measures when accessing docks, vessels and operating locations. At this time all facilities are operational and monitored closely.RESULTS OF OPERATIONSThe Partnership had a net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 of $2.2 million, a loss of $0.06 per limited partner unit.

The Partnership’s primary business lines include: (1) terminalling, processing, storage, and packaging services for petroleum products and by-products; (2) land and marine transportation services for petroleum products and by-products, chemicals, and specialty products; (3) sulfur and sulfur-based products processing, manufacturing, marketing and distribution; and (4) natural gas liquids marketing, distribution and transportation services.Forward-Looking StatementsStatements 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, including (i) the current and potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic generally, on an industry-specific basis, and on the Partnership’s specific operations and business, (ii) the Partnership’s ability to refinance its senior unsecured notes due February 15, 2021 prior to August 19, 2020, (iii) the Partnership’s pursuit of strategic alternatives, (iv) the effects of the continued volatility of commodity prices and the related macroeconomic and political environment, and (v) 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 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 InformationThe 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 from Continuing Operations, and Adjusted EBITDA from Discontinued Operations. Certain items excluded from EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, 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 from continuing operations, 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 from continuing operations, 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.Additional information concerning the Partnership is available on the Partnership’s website at www.MMLP.com or by contacting:Sharon Taylor – Head of Investor Relations
