Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq: MMLP) (the “Partnership” or “MMLP”) announced today that it
has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the outstanding stock of Woodlawn Pipeline Company,
Inc. (“Woodlawn”), a natural gas gathering and processing company with integrated gathering and

Texas.

our Natural Gas Services segment, in particular. This tuck-in, accretive acquisition provides us

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements about Martin Midstream Partners’ 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 its control, which could cause
actual results to differ materially from such statements. While MMLP 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 MMLP’s annual and quarterly reports filed from time to
time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Martin Midstream Partners disclaims any intention
or obligation to revise any forward-looking statements, including financial estimates, whether as a

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
MMLP reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”), but uses from time to time certain non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA, Adjusted
EBITDA and distributable cash flow because management believes that these measures may provide
users of this financial information with meaningful comparisons between current results and prior
reported results and a meaningful measure of cash flow after satisfaction of the capital and
related requirements of operations. Neither EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA nor distributable cash flow is
a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in
isolation or as an indicator of performance. Furthermore, neither should be seen as a measure of
liquidity or a substitute for comparable metrics prepared in accordance with GAAP. Use of this
information constitutes a non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G adopted by
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, MMLP has presented herein an explanation of
how these measures can be reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
MMLP calculates EBITDA as follows: net income (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of
Operations) plus interest expense (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of Operations), plus
debt prepayment premiums (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of Operations), less equity in
earnings of unconsolidated entities (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of Operations),
plus depreciation and amortization expense (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of
Operations).
MMLP calculates Adjusted EBITDA as follows: EBITDA (as defined above), plus distribution in-kind
from equity investments (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows), plus
distributions from unconsolidated entities (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows), plus return of investments from unconsolidated entities (as reported in its Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows), less non-cash mark-to-market on derivatives (as reported in its
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows), less gain on disposition or sale of property, plant and
equipment (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows), less gain on involuntary
conversion of property, plant and equipment (as reported in its Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows).
