Sprague Resources LP Reports Third Quarter 2015 Results and Reconfirms 2015 EBITDA Guidance of $105 to $120 Million

Portsmouth, NH (November 5, 2015) – Sprague Resources LP (“Sprague”) (NYSE: SRLP) today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.

“We are pleased with Sprague's third quarter financial results,” said David Glendon, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In line with our previously issued guidance of $0.0150 per unit growth, we raised our distribution for the sixth consecutive quarter to $0.5025 per unit, 3.1% higher than the distribution paid in the second quarter and 13.6% above the year ago quarter. Assuming normal market conditions for the remainder of the year we are reconfirming full year 2015 adjusted EBITDA guidance between $105 and $120 million,” said Mr. Glendon.

Third Quarter 2015 Highlights

• Adjusted gross margin was $50.3 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared to adjusted gross margin of $47.8 million for the third quarter of 2014.

• Adjusted EBITDA was $12.6 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $18.5 million for the third quarter of 2014.

• Net sales were $558.0 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared to net sales of $897.4 million for the third quarter of 2014.

• Net income on a GAAP basis was $8.6 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared to a net loss of $5.3 million for the third quarter of 2014. Net income per fully diluted common unit on a GAAP basis was $0.39 in the third quarter of 2015.

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted gross margin are not prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and are discussed in greater detail below under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Readers should refer to the financial tables provided in this news release for reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measures for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

Refined Products

• Volumes in the Refined Products segment declined 4% to 287.6 million gallons in the third quarter of 2015, compared to 298.3 million gallons in the third quarter of 2014.

• Adjusted gross margin in the Refined Products segment decreased $324,000, or 1%, to $31.9 million in the third quarter of 2015, compared to $32.2 million in the third quarter of 2014.

“Sprague’s Refined Products business segment saw a modest 1% year-over-year quarterly decrease in adjusted gross margin,” said Mr. Glendon. “Lower volumes for residual fuels offset higher distillate and gasoline volumes during the quarter. We continue to see growth from our acquisition of the Bronx terminal in late 2014, and are in a good position to capitalize on our growth investments at the facility this coming winter.”

Natural Gas

• Natural Gas segment volumes increased 2% to 10.5 Bcf in the third quarter 2015, compared to 10.3 Bcf in the third quarter of 2014.

• Natural Gas adjusted gross margin decreased to $4.4 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared to $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2014.

“Sprague’s Natural Gas business segment continued to post higher sales volumes relative to the year ago quarter thanks in part to our purchase of Metromedia Energy in 2014. As we complete the integration of the business we look forward to realizing the benefits of our larger combined platform this coming winter,” reported Mr. Glendon.

Materials Handling

• Materials Handling adjusted gross margin increased by $2.2 million or 23%, to $12.0 million for the third quarter 2015, compared to $9.8 million for the third quarter 2014.

“Materials handling continues to showcase Sprague's diversified business model,” said Mr. Glendon. “Another strong quarter of windmill component handling revenues and asphalt storage contracts associated with the Bronx terminal acquisition combined to generate a 23% quarter-over-quarter increase in adjusted gross margin,” said Mr. Glendon.

On October 28, 2015, the Board of Directors of Sprague’s general partner, Sprague Resources GP LLC, announced its sixth consecutive distribution increase and approved a cash distribution of $0.5025 per unit for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, representing a 3.1% increase over the distribution declared for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The distribution will be paid on November 13, 2015 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on November 10, 2015.

“Sprague is on track to deliver strong performance that will translate to continued double digit percentage annual distribution growth for our unitholders,” concluded Mr. Glendon.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted gross margin are used as supplemental financial measures by management and external users of Sprague’s financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, trade suppliers and research analysts, to assess:

• The financial performance of Sprague’s assets, operations and return on capital without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis;

• The ability of Sprague’s assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest on its indebtedness and make distributions to its equity holders;

• The viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects;

• The market value of its inventory and natural gas transportation contracts for financial reporting to its lenders, as well as for borrowing base purposes; and

• Repeatable operating performance that is not distorted by non-recurring items or market volatility.

Sprague defines EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Sprague defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA increased by unrealized hedging losses and decreased by unrealized hedging gains, in each case with respect to refined products and natural gas inventory, prepaid forward contracts and natural gas transportation contracts.

Sprague defines adjusted gross margin as net sales less cost of products sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased by unrealized hedging losses and decreased by unrealized hedging gains, in each case with respect to refined products and natural gas inventory, prepaid forward contracts and natural gas transportation contracts.

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted gross margin are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income, income from operations, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.
