<html><head><title>Star Gas Partners, L.P. Reports Fiscal 2013 Second Quarter Results</title></head><body><p align="right">EXHIBIT 99.1</p><h3 align="center">Star Gas Partners, L.P. Reports Fiscal 2013 Second Quarter Results</h3><p>STAMFORD, Conn., May 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Star Gas Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership" or "Star") (NYSE:SGU), a home energy distributor and services provider specializing in heating oil, today announced financial results for its fiscal 2013 second quarter and the six-month period ended March 31, 2013.</p><p>
	<strong>Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 </strong></p><p>
	For the fiscal 2013 second quarter Star reported a 24.7 percent increase in total revenue to $785.1 million, compared with $629.6 million in the prior-year period, driven largely by a 26.0 percent increase in total volume.</p><p>
	Home heating oil and propane volume for the fiscal 2013 second quarter increased by 33.9 million gallons versus the fiscal 2012 second quarter, to 164.4 million gallons, as the impact of colder temperatures and the additional volume provided by acquisitions more than offset the impact of net customer attrition, conservation and other factors. Temperatures in Star's geographic areas of operation for the fiscal 2013 second quarter were 25.6 percent colder than the fiscal 2012 second quarter and 1.8 percent warmer than normal, as reported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.</p><p>
	During the fiscal 2013 second quarter, net income increased by $1.2 million to $41.7 million, as the impact of colder temperatures on operating results was partially offset by an unfavorable change in the fair value of derivative instruments of $13.5 million. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2012 net income was positively impacted by the recording of a $12.5 million benefit under Star's weather hedge contract. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 the Partnership did not record a similar benefit under its weather hedge contract.</p><p>
	Adjusted EBITDA increased by $14.2 million to $73.9 million during the fiscal 2013 second quarter as the impact of colder temperatures and an increase in Adjusted EBITDA provided by acquisitions more than offset the impact of net customer attrition. As discussed above, Adjusted EDITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2012 included a $12.5 million benefit recorded under the Partnership's weather hedge contract.</p><p>
	"Star's fiscal second quarter, from a weather standpoint, played out much like the first &#8211; with temperatures much colder than 2012 but somewhat warmer than normal," said Dan Donovan, Star Gas Partners' Chief Executive Officer. "The quarter was not without its difficulties, particularly the major snow storm in February, but, as always, we focused on managing customer retention even as oil prices remained high. At the same time, while we did not close on any acquisitions, we were able to continue repurchasing units and recently raised our quarterly distribution to $0.0825 per unit &#8211; both moves designed to enhance unitholder value. With winter now behind us, we remain committed to seeking attractive acquisitions and growing our propane business organically in the quarters to come."</p><p>
	<strong>Six Months Ended March 31, 2013 Compared to Six Months Ended March 31, 2012 </strong></p><p>
	For the six months ended March 31, 2013 Star reported a 19.3 percent increase in total revenue to $1.3 billion, versus $1.1 billion in the prior-year period, driven by an 18.4 percent increase in total volume of 45.7 million gallons.</p><p>
	Home heating oil and propane volume for the first half of fiscal 2013 increased by 39.9 million gallons, to 261.5 million gallons, as colder temperatures and the additional volume provided by acquisitions more than offset the negative impact of net customer attrition, conservation and other factors. Temperatures in Star's geographic areas of operation for the first half of fiscal 2013 were 21.6 percent colder than the prior-year's comparable period and 4.1 percent warmer than normal, as reported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.</p><p>
	Net income increased by $8.0 million to $51.4 million as the impact of colder weather on operating results was partially offset by the impact of an unfavorable non-cash change in the fair value of derivative instruments of $14.4 million. In addition, net income for the six months ended March 31, 2012 was positively impacted by a $12.5 million benefit recorded under Star's weather hedge contract, and the period-to-period comparison was favorably impacted by a decline in the effective tax rate.</p><p>
	Adjusted EBITDA increased by $24.7 million, or 31.2 percent, to $103.7 million as the impact of 21.6 percent colder temperatures, acquisitions, and the favorable impact of the storm "Sandy" on motor fuel sales and service and installation revenue more than offset the volume decline in the base business attributable to net customer attrition, conservation and other factors such as the impact of Sandy on home heating oil and propane volume. Deliveries of home heating oil and propane were less than expected for certain customers who were without power for several weeks subsequent to Sandy, and Star's operating costs also increased due to this storm. In addition, during the six months ended March 31, 2012 the Partnership recorded a $12.5 million benefit under its weather hedge contract due to the abnormally warm weather in fiscal 2012. During the six months ended March 31, 2013 the Partnership did not record a similar benefit under its weather hedge contract.</p><p>
	<strong>EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP Financial Measures)</strong></p><p>
	EBITDA (Earnings from continuing operations before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings from continuing operations before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, (increase) decrease in the fair value of derivatives, gain or loss on debt redemption, goodwill impairment, and other non-cash and non-operating charges) are non-GAAP financial measures that are used as supplemental financial measures by management and external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to assess:</p><ul>
	<li>
		our compliance with certain financial covenants included in our debt agreements;<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		our financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or historical cost basis;<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		our ability to generate cash sufficient to pay interest on our indebtedness and to make distributions to our partners;<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		our operating performance and return on invested capital as compared to those of other companies in the retail distribution of refined petroleum products, without regard to financing methods and capital structure; and<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		the viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return of alternative investment opportunities.</li>
</ul><p>
	The method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may not be consistent with that of other companies and each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA has its limitations as an analytical tool, should not be considered in isolation and should be viewed in conjunction with measurements that are computed in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are:</p><ul>
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash used for capital expenditures;<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized often will have to be replaced and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash requirements for such replacements;<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital requirements;<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash necessary to make payments of interest or principal on our indebtedness; and<br>
		&#160;</li>
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash required to pay taxes.</li>
</ul><p>
