<html><head><title>Star Gas Partners, L.P. Reports Fiscal 2013 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results</title></head><body><p align="right">EXHIBIT 99.1</p><h3 align="center">Star Gas Partners, L.P. Reports Fiscal 2013 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results</h3><p>STAMFORD, Conn., Dec. 11, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Star Gas Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership" or "Star") (NYSE:SGU), a home energy distributor and services provider specializing in home heating oil, today filed its fiscal 2013 annual report on Form 10-K with the SEC and announced financial results for the fiscal 2013 fourth quarter and year ended September 30, 2013.</p><p>
	<strong>Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2012</strong></p><p>
	For the fiscal 2013 fourth quarter, the Partnership reported a 2.1 percent increase in total revenue, to $177.6 million, due to higher service and installation sales. Total gross profit increased 2.2 percent, to $33.5 million, reflecting the additional gross profit from higher home heating oil and propane margins, somewhat offset by lower gross profit from service and installations. Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization, increased by $3.3 million, or 6.6 percent, to $53.5 million due to higher insurance, plant and marketing expenses. Star's net loss was $13.9 million, or $8.3 million higher than the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, largely due to an unfavorable change in the fair value of derivative instruments of $10.3 million.</p><p>
	The Partnership's Adjusted EBITDA loss increased $3.0 million, to a loss of $15.2 million, as an increase in total gross profit of $0.7 million was more than offset by higher delivery, branch and general and administrative expenses of $3.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure (see reconciliation below) that should not be considered as an alternative to net income (as an indicator of operating performance) or as an alternative to cash flow (as a measure of liquidity or ability to service debt obligations) but provides additional information for evaluating the Partnership's ability to pay distributions.</p><p>
	<strong>Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2012</strong></p><p>
	For the twelve months ended September 30, 2013 the Partnership reported a 16.3 percent increase in total revenue to $1.7 billion due to an increase in total volume of 16.2 percent along with higher service and installation sales attributable to acquisitions, the storm known as "Sandy," and colder temperatures. Home heating oil and propane volume increased by 47.6 million gallons, or 17.2 percent, to 324.8 million gallons, driven by 22.3 percent colder temperatures and the additional volume from fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 acquisitions, slightly offset by net customer attrition, conservation and other factors. In the New York Metropolitan Area, which is an important area of operations for the Partnership, fiscal 2012 was the warmest period in the last 113 years.</p><p>
	Total gross profit increased by $55.4 million, or 18.6 percent, to $353.1 million, compared to $297.8 million for fiscal 2012, primarily due to the increase in home heating oil and propane volume.</p><p>
	Operating income for fiscal 2013 increased by $7.7 million to $66.0 million, as higher product gross profit of $55.4 million was largely offset by higher operating expenses (including depreciation and amortization) of $33.4 million. In fiscal 2012, Star's operating expenses were reduced by $12.5 million due to payments recorded under Star's weather hedge contract. In addition, a $15.3 million unfavorable non-cash change in the fair value of derivative instruments impacted the year-over-year comparison.</p><p>
	Star's net income increased $3.9 million, to $29.9 million, as the $7.7 million increase in operating income was reduced by an increase in income taxes of $3.3 million.</p><p>
	For fiscal 2013, Adjusted EBITDA increased by $24.0 million, or 36.3 percent, to $90.1 million as the impact of 22.3 percent colder temperatures, higher home heating oil and propane per gallon margins, acquisitions, and the favorable impact of 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 and other factors. Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2012 included a $12.5 million benefit that the Partnership recorded under its weather hedge contract due to the abnormally warm weather in that period, with no similar benefit recorded during fiscal 2013.</p><p>
	"I am very pleased to report that Star Gas ended the fiscal year with positive results and a seamless leadership transition, and we are well positioned for strong operating performance heading into the heating season," said Steve Goldman, Star Gas Partners' Chief Executive Officer. "A year ago we had just completed a period with one of the warmest winters on record and, at the same time, were battling the impact of Sandy on our operations throughout the Northeast and MidAtlantic. We came through those challenges stronger than ever and once again proved Star's value to our customers in terms of overall service, response, and delivery. I am proud of everything we've accomplished this past year and believe the Partnership is prepared to handle any new difficulties that may lie ahead &#8211; be they economic or weather-dependent.</p><p>
	"We completed just two acquisitions this fiscal year, primarily in the New York area, but continue to look at potential opportunities that can bolster our operations going forward. With an eye to managing costs and providing the best customer service in the industry, we believe Star is poised for even better returns in the quarters to come, and I am personally grateful to the professionalism and pride shown by all members of our team this year."</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 type="disc">
	<li>
		our compliance with certain financial covenants included in our debt agreements;</li>
	<li>
		our financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or historical cost basis;</li>
	<li>
		our ability to generate cash sufficient to pay interest on our indebtedness and to make distributions to our partners;</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 business, without regard to financing methods and capital structure; and</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 type="disc">
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash used for capital expenditures;</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;</li>
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital requirements;</li>
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash necessary to make payments of interest or principal on our indebtedness; and</li>
	<li>
		EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash required to pay taxes.</li>
</ul><p>
