  • Reported net loss of $10.8 million and $4.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, which were negatively impacted by an $8.5 million charge related to the exchange of our senior notes
  • Reported adjusted EBITDA of $22.5 million and $77.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively
  • Generated distributable cash flow of $8.1 million and $38.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively

KILGORE, Texas, Oct. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq:MMLP) (the “Partnership”) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2020.

Ruben Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership said, “The Partnership delivered strong results in the third quarter even with the continuing impact on demand related to COVID-19 coupled with hurricanes in the Gulf Coast region effecting refinery operations.  The diversity of our business model and customer base has proven resilient in these difficult and changing macro-economic times.  Although the third quarter is typically our weakest, due to the cyclical nature of our businesses, we had year over year EBITDA growth in three of our four business segments.  Our team continues to make every effort to provide our employees and customers with a safe and healthy operating environment.”

THIRD QUARTER 2020 OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

TERMINALLING AND STORAGE (“T&S”)

T&S Operating Income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $7.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA for T&S was $14.2 million and $13.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, reflecting improved margins on packaged lubricants products from lower production cost and operating efficiencies, reduced operating expenses from lower repairs and maintenance and labor cost at our Specialty Terminals, offset by reduced grease volumes 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.

TRANSPORTATION

Transportation Operating Income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA for Transportation was $5.5 million and $8.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, reflecting lower marine utilization and reduced day rates along with lower land transportation load count related to demand destruction and lower refinery utilization as a result of COVID-19 and gulf coast hurricanes experienced during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

SULFUR SERVICES

Sulfur Services Operating Income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $5.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA for Sulfur Services was $4.2 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, reflecting resumed operations of the Neches Priller offset by reduced fertilizer volumes from extended fertilizer plant turnaround time and reduced fertilizer demand as a result of COVID-19.

NATURAL GAS LIQUIDS (“NGL”)

NGL Operating Income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1.8 million and $19.7 million, respectively.

Adjusted segment EBITDA from continuing operations for NGL was $2.8 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, primarily reflecting an increase in volumes in 2020 from increased seasonal demand within the butane optimization business.

UNALLOCATED SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE (“USGA”)

USGA expenses included in operating income were $4.5 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

USGA expenses included in adjusted EBITDA were $4.2 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

2020 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE UPDATE

The majority of our refinery services are focused on the Gulf Coast Region whose states have reopened their economies. However, the impact on refinery utilization related to the demand reduction from COVID-19 and recent gulf coast hurricanes experienced during the quarter remains unclear.  The Partnership believes that our performance through the first nine months coupled with expectations for the coming quarter will allow our annualized Adjusted EBITDA, Expansion Capital Expenditures and Maintenance Capital Expenditures to fall within the previously provided range below:

MMLP 2020 Guidance $ millions
Adjusted EBITDA $95 – 107
Expansion Capital Expenditures $10 – 13
Maintenance Capital Expenditures $14 – 16

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.

LIQUIDITY

At September 30, 2020, the Partnership had $205 million drawn on its $300 million revolving credit facility, a $24 million increase from June 30, 2020.  The majority of the increase was attributable to the NGL inventory working capital sub-limit which increased $20 million quarter over quarter.   As previously announced, on August 12, 2020, the Partnership successfully completed an exchange offer and cash tender offer (together the “Offers”) for its senior unsecured notes due February 2021.  As a result of the Offers, the Partnership has the following outstanding senior notes: senior unsecured notes due 2021 of $28.8 million, senior secured notes of $53.8 million due 2024 and senior secured notes of $291.9 million due 2025, for a total of senior notes outstanding of $374.5 million.  Accordingly, the Partnership’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the revolving credit facility, was 4.9 times on September 30, 2020 compared to 4.8 times on June 30, 2020.  The Partnership is in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 30, 2020.

QUARTERLY CASH DISTRIBUTION

The Partnership has declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.005 per unit for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.  The distribution is payable on November 13, 2020 to common unitholders of record as of the close of business on November 6, 2020.  The ex-dividend date for the cash distribution is November 5, 2020.

COVID-19 RESPONSE

The 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.

About Martin Midstream Partners

Martin Midstream Partners L.P. 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 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 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 or operational 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 effects of the continued volatility of commodity prices and the related macroeconomic and political environment, and (iii) 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 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 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.
