REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Partners

Ferrellgas, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ferrellgas, L.P. and subsidiaries (the “Partnership”) as of July 31 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, partners’ capital, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2015. Our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements included the financial statement schedule (not included herein). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ferrellgas, L.P. and subsidiaries as of July 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

FERRELLGAS, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise designated)

A.    Partnership organization and formation

Ferrellgas, L.P. was formed on April 22, 1994, and is a Delaware limited partnership. Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. (“Ferrellgas Partners”), a publicly traded limited partnership, holds an approximate 99% limited partner interest in, and consolidates, Ferrellgas, L.P. Ferrellgas, Inc. (the “general partner”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ferrell Companies, Inc. (“Ferrell Companies”), holds an approximate 1% general partner interest in Ferrellgas, L.P. and performs all management functions required by Ferrellgas, L.P. Ferrellgas Partners and Ferrellgas, L.P. are governed by their respective partnership agreements. These agreements contain specific provisions for the allocation of net earnings and loss to each of the partners for purposes of maintaining the partner capital accounts.

Ferrellgas, L.P. owns a 100% equity interest in Ferrellgas Finance Corp., whose only business activity is to act as the co-issuer and co-obligor of any debt issued by Ferrellgas, L.P.

Ferrellgas, L.P. is engaged in the following primary businesses:

• Propane and related equipment sales consists of the distribution of propane and related equipment and supplies. The propane distribution market is seasonal because propane is used primarily for heating in residential and commercial buildings. Ferrellgas, L.P. serves residential, industrial/commercial, portable tank exchange, agricultural, wholesale and other customers in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.

• Midstream operations consists of two reportable operating segments: crude oil logistics and water solutions. The crude oil logistics segment ("Bridger") generates income by providing crude oil transportation and logistics services on behalf of producers and end-users of crude oil. Bridger's services include transportation through its operation of a fleet of trucks and tank trailers and railcars primarily servicing Texas, Lousiana, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Wyoming; pipeline services in North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, New Mexico, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Texas; and crude oil purchase and sale in connection with pipeline management services. The salt water disposal wells within the water solutions segment are located in the Eagle Ford shale region of south Texas and are a critical component of the oil and natural gas well drilling industry. Oil and natural gas wells generate significant volumes of salt water. In the oil and gas fields Ferrellgas, L.P. services, these volumes of water are transported by truck away from the fields to salt water disposal wells where a combination of gravity and chemicals are used to separate crude oil from the salt water through a process that results in the collection of "skimming oil". This skimming oil is then captured and sold before the salt water is injected into underground geologic formations using high-pressure pumps.

B.    Summary of significant accounting policies

(1)Accounting estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates impacting the consolidated financial statements include accruals that have been established for contingent liabilities, pending claims and legal actions arising in the normal course of business, useful lives of property, plant and equipment assets, residual values of tanks, capitalization of customer tank installation costs, amortization methods of intangible assets, valuation methods used to value sales returns and allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, fair value of reporting units, assumptions used to value business combinations, fair values of derivative contracts and stock-based compensation calculations.

(2)Principles of consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Ferrellgas, L.P. and its subsidiaries after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions. Ferrellgas, L.P. consolidates the following wholly-owned entities: Bridger Logistics, LLC, Sable Environmental, LLC, Sable SWD 2, LLC, Blue Rhino Global Sourcing, Inc., Blue Rhino Canada, Inc., Ferrellgas Real Estate, Inc., Ferrellgas Finance Corp. and Ferrellgas Receivables, LLC (“Ferrellgas Receivables”), a special purpose entity that has agreements with Ferrellgas, L.P. to securitize, on an ongoing basis, a portion of its trade accounts receivable.

(3)Supplemental cash flow information: For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, Ferrellgas, L.P. considers cash equivalents to include all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less. Certain cash flow and significant non-cash activities are presented below:

F-8

	For the year ended July 31,
	2015		2014		2013
CASH PAID FOR:
Interest	$	76,085	$	75,121	$	68,334
Income taxes	$	643	$	771	$	534
NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES:
Assets contributed from Ferrellgas Partners in connection with acquisitions	$	825,452	$	1,500	$	—
Liabilities incurred in connection with acquisitions	$	481	$	4,312	$	2,035
Change in accruals for property, plant and equipment additions	$	498	$	978	$	533

(4)Fair value measurements: Ferrellgas, L.P. measures certain of its assets and liabilities at fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants – in either the principal market or the most advantageous market. The principal market is the market with the greatest level of activity and volume for the asset or liability.

The common framework for measuring fair value utilizes a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values. The basis for fair value measurements for each level within the hierarchy is described below with Level 1 having the highest priority and Level 3 having the lowest.

• Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.

• Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

(5)Accounts receivable securitization: Through its wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiary Ferrellgas Receivables, Ferrellgas, L.P. has agreements to securitize, on an ongoing basis, a portion of its trade accounts receivable.

(6)Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using weighted average cost and actual cost methods.

(7)Property, plant and equipment: Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and routine repairs are expensed as incurred. Ferrellgas, L.P. capitalizes computer software, equipment replacement and betterment expenditures that upgrade, replace or completely rebuild major mechanical components and extend the original useful life of the equipment. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from two to 30 years. Ferrellgas, L.P., using its best estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections, reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of its assets might not be recoverable. See Note E – Supplemental financial statement information – for further discussion of property, plant and equipment.

(8)Goodwill: Ferrellgas, L.P. records goodwill as the excess of the cost of acquisitions over the fair value of the related net assets at the date of acquisition. Goodwill recorded is not deductible for income tax purposes. Ferrellgas, L.P. has determined that it has five reporting units for goodwill impairment testing purposes. Four of these reporting units contain goodwill that is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair-value-based test. Under this test, the carrying value of each reporting unit is determined by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of the date of the evaluation on a specific identification basis. To the extent a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired and the second step of the impairment test must be performed. In the second step, the implied fair value of the goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of all of its assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities to its carrying amount. Ferrellgas, L.P. has completed the impairment test for the Retail operations, Products and Midstream operations - water solutions reporting units and believes that estimated fair values exceed the carrying values of its reporting units as of January 31, 2015. Goodwill associated with the Midstream operations - crude oil logistics reporting unit is a result of the acquisition of Bridger on June 24, 2015.

As a result of the significant drop in the price of crude oil and its impact on the results of Midstream operations - water solutions reporting unit during the second half of fiscal 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P. considered whether the carrying value of this reporting unit no longer exceeded the fair value. Upon applying the fair-value-based test as described above for purposes of the annual impairment test, Ferrellgas, L.P. concluded that there was no impairment of the Midstream operations - water solutions reporting unit as of July 31, 2015.  As of July 31, 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P. determined that this reporting unit had an estimated fair value in excess of its respective carrying value of approximately 10%.

F-9

This test primarily consists of a discounted future cash flow model to estimate fair value. The cash flow model includes the following critical assumptions: (1) the NYMEX West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil curve as of July 31, 2015 was used to predict future oil prices; (2) the oil skimming rate is expected to correlate to the NYMEX WTI crude oil curve consistent with Ferrellgas, L.P.’s past history; (3) a terminal period growth rate equal to the expected rate of inflation; and (4) certain organic growth projects will increase the salt water volumes processed as a result of new drilling activity in the Eagle Ford shale region of Texas that are expected to occur as the price of WTI crude oil increases. Ferrellgas, L.P. believes that the results of this business are closely tied to the price of WTI crude oil and, therefore, if any of these assumptions are not sustained or are not sustained in a timely manner, the Midstream operations - water solutions reporting unit could incur material impairments. In addition to these critical cash flow assumptions, a discount rate of 11.1% was applied to the projected cash flows. A 5% increase, resulting in a discount rate equal to 11.7%, could cause Ferrellgas, L.P. to fail step one of the goodwill impairment test. If this reporting unit fails step one in the future, we would be required to perform step two of the goodwill impairment test. If we perform step two, up to $29.3 million of goodwill assigned to this reporting unit could be written off in the period that the impairment is triggered.

Judgments and assumptions are inherent in management’s estimates used to determine the fair value of Ferrellgas, L.P.'s reporting units and are consistent with what management believes would be utilized by primary market participants. The use of alternate judgments and assumptions could result in the recognition of different levels of impairment charges in the financial statements.

(9)Intangible assets: Intangible assets with finite useful lives, consisting primarily of customer related assets, non-compete agreements, permits, favorable lease arrangements and patented technology, are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization calculated using the straight-line method over periods ranging from two to 15 years. Trade names and trademarks have indefinite lives, are not amortized, and are stated at cost. Ferrellgas, L.P. tests finite-lived intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets might not be recoverable. Ferrellgas, L.P. tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually on January 31 or more frequently if circumstances dictate. Ferrellgas, L.P. has not recognized impairment losses as a result of these tests. When necessary, intangible assets’ useful lives are revised and the impact on amortization reflected on a prospective basis. See Note G – Goodwill and intangible assets, net – for further discussion of intangible assets.

(10)Derivative instruments and hedging activities:

Commodity and Transportation Fuel Price Risk.

Ferrellgas, L.P.’s overall objective for entering into commodity based derivative contracts, including commodity options and swaps, is to hedge a portion of its exposure to market fluctuations in propane, gasoline, diesel and crude oil prices.

Ferrellgas, L.P's risk management activities primarily attempt to mitigate price risks related to the purchase, storage, transport and sale of propane and crude oil generally in the contract and spot markets from major domestic energy companies on a short-term basis. Ferrellgas, L.P attempts to mitigate these price risks through the use of financial derivative instruments and forward propane purchase and sales contracts. Additionally, Ferrellgas, L.P.'s risk management activities attempt to mitigate price risks related to the purchase of gasoline and diesel fuel for use in the transport of propane from retail fueling stations through the use of financial derivative instruments.

Ferrellgas, L.P.’s risk management strategy involves taking positions in the forward or financial markets that are equal and opposite to Ferrellgas, L.P.’s positions in the physical products market in order to minimize the risk of financial loss from an adverse price change. This risk management strategy is successful when Ferrellgas, L.P.’s gains or losses in the physical product markets are offset by its losses or gains in the forward or financial markets. These financial derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges. The gasoline and diesel related financial derivatives are not formally designated and documented as a hedge of exposure to fluctuations in the market price of fuel.

Ferrellgas, L.P.’s risk management activities may include the use of financial derivative instruments including, but not limited to, swaps, options, and futures to seek protection from adverse price movements and to minimize potential losses. Ferrellgas, L.P. enters into these financial derivative instruments directly with third parties in the over-the-counter market and with brokers who are clearing members with the New York Mercantile Exchange. All of Ferrellgas, L.P.’s financial derivative instruments are reported on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value.

Ferrellgas, L.P. also enters into forward propane purchase and sales contracts with counterparties. These forward contracts qualify for the normal purchase normal sales exception within GAAP guidance and are therefore not recorded on Ferrellgas, L.P.’s financial statements until settled.

F-10

On the date that derivative contracts are entered into, other than those designated as normal purchases or normal sales, Ferrellgas, L.P. makes a determination as to whether the derivative instrument qualifies for designation as a hedge. These financial instruments are formally designated and documented as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure, as well as the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. Because of the high degree of correlation between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instrument are generally offset by changes in the anticipated cash flows of the underlying exposure being hedged. Since the fair value of these derivatives fluctuates over their contractual lives, their fair value amounts should not be viewed in isolation, but rather in relation to the anticipated cash flows of the underlying hedged transaction and the overall reduction in Ferrellgas, L.P.’s risk relating to adverse fluctuations in propane prices. Ferrellgas, L.P. formally assesses, both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in the anticipated cash flows of the related underlying exposures. Any ineffective portion of a financial instrument’s change in fair value is recognized in “Cost of product sold - propane and other gas liquids sales” in the consolidated statements of earnings. Financial instruments formally designated and documented as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure are recorded gross at fair value as either “Prepaid expenses and other current assets”, "Other assets, net", “Other current liabilities” or "Other liabilities" on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income.

Financial instruments not formally designated and documented as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure are recorded at fair value as “Prepaid expenses and other current assets”, "Other assets, net", “Other current liabilities”, or "Other liabilities" on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value reported in "Cost of sales - midstream operations" and "Operating expense" on the consolidated statements of earnings.

Interest Rate Risk. 

Ferrellgas, L.P.’s overall objective for entering into interest rate derivative contracts, including swaps, is to manage its exposure to interest rate risk associated with its fixed rate senior notes and its floating rate borrowings from both the secured credit facility and the accounts receivable securitization facility. Fluctuations in interest rates subject Ferrellgas, L.P. to interest rate risk. Decreases in interest rates increase the fair value of Ferrellgas, L.P.’s fixed rate debt, while increases in interest rates subject Ferrellgas, L.P. to the risk of increased interest expense related to its variable rate borrowings.

Ferrellgas, L.P. enters into fair value hedges to help reduce its fixed interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps are used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of fixed rate debt due to changes in interest rates. Fixed rate debt that has been designated as being hedged is recorded at fair value while the fair value of interest rate derivatives that are considered fair value hedges are classified as “Prepaid expenses and other current assets”, “Other assets, net”, “Other current liabilities” or as “Other liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of fixed rate debt and any related fair value hedges are recognized as they occur in “Interest expense” on the consolidated statements of earnings.

Ferrellgas, L.P. enters into cash flow hedges to help reduce its variable interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps are used to hedge the risk associated with rising interest rates and their effect on forecasted interest payments related to variable rate borrowings. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. Thus, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the hedges are recorded in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets”, “Other assets, net”, “Other current liabilities” or as “Other liabilities” with an offsetting entry to “Other comprehensive income” at interim periods and are subsequently recognized as interest expense in the consolidated statement of earnings when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. Changes in the fair value of any cash flow hedges that are considered ineffective are recognized as interest expense on the consolidated statement of earnings as they occur.

The ICPs are not Ferrellgas, L.P. stock-compensation plans; however, in accordance with Ferrellgas, L.P.’s partnership agreements, all Ferrellgas, L.P. employee-related costs incurred by Ferrell Companies are allocated to Ferrellgas, L.P. As a result, Ferrellgas, L.P. incurs a non-cash compensation charge from Ferrell Companies. During the years ended July 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, the portion of the total non-cash compensation charge relating to the ICPs was $25.6 million, $24.5 million and $13.5 million, respectively.

As a result, except for the taxable corporations, Ferrellgas, L.P.’s earnings or losses for federal income tax purposes are included in the tax returns of the individual partners. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Ferrellgas, L.P.

F-12

reflect federal income taxes related to the above mentioned taxable corporations and certain states that allow for income taxation of partnerships. Net earnings for financial statement purposes may differ significantly from taxable income reportable to partners as a result of differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities, the taxable income allocation requirements under Ferrellgas, L.P.’s partnership agreement and differences between Ferrellgas, L.P.’s financial reporting year end and limited partners tax year end.

Income tax expense consisted of the following:

	For the year ended July 31,

Legal costs associated with these loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

(20)  New accounting standards:

Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2011-08

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, which amends the existing guidance on goodwill impairment testing. Under the new guidance, entities testing goodwill for impairment have the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the reporting unit. If an entity determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would be required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Ferrellgas, L.P.'s adoption of this guidance in fiscal 2013 did not have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

FASB Accounting Standard Update No. 2012-02

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, which amends the existing guidance on impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets. Under the new guidance, entities testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment have the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the asset. If an entity determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of the asset is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would be required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted.  Ferrellgas, L.P.'s adoption of this guidance in fiscal 2013 did not have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

FASB Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-09

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The issuance is part of a joint effort by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to enhance financial reporting by creating common revenue recognition guidance for U.S. GAAP and IFRS and, thereby, improving the consistency of requirements, comparability of practices and usefulness of disclosures. The new standard will supersede much of the existing authoritative literature for revenue recognition. The standard and related amendments will be effective for Ferrellgas, L.P. for its annual reporting period beginning August 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. Entities are allowed to transition to the new standard by either recasting prior periods or recognizing the cumulative effect. Ferrellgas, L.P.

F-13

is currently evaluating the newly issued guidance, including which transition approach will be applied and the estimated impact it will have on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-08

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, to change the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and enhanced the related disclosure requirements. ASU 2014-08 is effective for us on a prospective basis in Ferrellgas, L.P.'s first quarter of fiscal 2016 with early adoption permitted for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. Ferrellgas, L.P. does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standard Update No. 2015-02

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis which provides additional guidance on the consolidation of limited partnerships and on the evaluation of variable interest entities. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Ferrellgas, L.P. is currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2015-02 on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standard Update No. 2015-03

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the debt liability. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted, and retrospective application required. Ferrellgas, L.P. is currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2015-03 on the consolidated financial statements.

This included the acquisitions of Sable Environmental, LLC and Sable SWD 2, LLC ("Sable"), based in Corpus Christi, Texas and Dietert SWD, based in LaSalle County, Texas. The Sable acquisition was funded through borrowings from the secured credit facility, and subsequently Sable's ownership group purchased $50.0 million of Ferrellgas Partners common units. The excess of purchase consideration over net assets assumed was recorded as goodwill, which represents the strategic value assigned to Sable, including the knowledge and experience of the workforce in place.

The acquisition of Sable included contingent consideration which requires Ferrellgas, L.P. to pay the former owners of Sable a multiple for earnings in excess of certain EBITDA targets for each of the first two years following the acquisition date. At the date of acquisition, the potential undiscounted amount of all future payments that Ferrellgas, L.P. could be required to make under the contingent consideration arrangement was between $0 and $2.0 million based upon management's estimate of the likelihood that the target EBITDA metric will be met and exceeded and the amount by which it could be exceeded at the date of acquisition. See further discussion of the determination of the fair value of the contingent consideration at Note J - Fair Value Measurements.

Midstream operations - Crude oil logistics solutions

On June 24, 2015, Ferrellgas Partners acquired Bridger and formed a new midstream operation - crude oil logistics segment based near Dallas, Texas. Ferrellgas Partners paid $560.0 million of cash, net of cash acquired and issued $260.0 million of Ferrellgas Partners common units to the seller, along with $2.5 million of other seller costs and consideration for an aggregate value of $822.5 million.

The estimated fair values and useful lives of assets acquired during fiscal 2015 are based on a preliminary valuation and are subject to final valuation adjustments. Ferrellgas, L.P. intends to continue its analysis of the net assets of these transactions to determine the final allocation of the total purchase price to the various assets and liabilities acquired. The estimated fair values and useful lives of assets acquired during fiscal 2014 and 2013 are based on internal valuations and included only minor adjustments during the 12 month period after the date of acquisition. Due to the immateriality of these adjustments, Ferrellgas, L.P. did not retrospectively adjust the consolidated statements of operations for those measurement period adjustments.

D.    Quarterly distributions of available cash

Ferrellgas, L.P. makes quarterly cash distributions of all of its "available cash." Available cash is defined in the partnership agreement of Ferrellgas, L.P. as, generally, the sum of its consolidated cash receipts less consolidated cash disbursements and net changes in reserves established by the general partner for future requirements. Reserves are retained in order to provide for the proper conduct of Ferrellgas, L.P.’s business, or to provide funds for distributions with respect to any one or more of the next four fiscal quarters. Distributions are made within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter ending October, January, April, and July.

F-20

junior to all future senior secured indebtedness of Ferrellgas, L.P., to the extent of the value of the assets securing the debt, and are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and obligations of Ferrellgas, L.P. The senior notes bear interest from the date of issuance, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year. The outstanding principal amount is due on May 1, 2021. Ferrellgas, L.P. would incur prepayment penalties if it were to repay the notes prior to 2019.

(2) During November 2013, Ferrellgas, L.P. issued $325.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior notes due 2022 at an offering price equal to par.

Ferrellgas, L.P. used the net proceeds to redeem all of its $300.0 million 9.125% fixed rate senior notes due October 1, 2017. Ferrellgas, L.P. used the remaining proceeds to pay the related $14.7 million make whole and consent payments, $3.3 million in interest payments and to reduce outstanding indebtedness under the secured credit facility. This redemption also resulted in $6.0 million of non-cash write-offs of unamortized debt discount and related capitalized debt costs. The make whole and consent payments and the non-cash write-offs of unamortized debt discount and related capitalized debt costs are classified as loss on extinguishment of debt.

Secured credit facility

During October 2013, Ferrellgas, L.P. executed a second amendment to its secured credit facility. This amendment extended the maturity date to October 2018, increased the size of the facility from $400.0 million to $500.0 million with no change to the size of the letter of credit sublimit which remains at $200.0 million and decreased interest rates by 0.25%. Ferrellgas, L.P. incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.3 million related to the writeoff of capitalized financing costs.

During June 2014, Ferrellgas, L.P. executed a third amendment to its secured credit facility to better facilitate its strategic focus on further business diversification. Immediately following the amendment, Ferrellgas, L.P. increased the size of this facility from $500.0 million to $600.0 million with no change to the size of the letter of credit sublimit which remains at $200.0 million. This amendment did not change the interest rate or the maturity date of the secured credit facility which remains at October 2018. Borrowings under this amended facility are available for working capital needs, capital expenditures and other general partnership purposes, including the refinancing of existing indebtedness.

During June 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P. executed a fourth amendment to its secured credit facility to administer certain technical revisions in order to facilitate the Bridger Logistics Acquisition and related funding.

Borrowings outstanding at July 31, 2015 and 2014 under the secured credit facility had a weighted average interest rate of 3.5% and 3.4%, respectively. All borrowings under the secured credit facility bear interest, at Ferrellgas, L.P.’s option, at a rate equal to either:

• for Base Rate Loans or Swing Line Loans, the Base Rate, which is defined as the higher of i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, ii) Bank of America’s prime rate; or iii) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%; plus a margin varying from 0.75% to 1.75% (as of July 31, 2015 and 2014, the margin was  1.50% and 1.25%, respectively); or

• for Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Eurodollar Rate, which is defined as the LIBOR Rate plus a margin varying from 1.75% to 2.75% (as of July 31, 2015 and 2014, the margin was 2.50% and 2.25%, respectively).

F-21

In addition, an annual commitment fee is payable at a per annum rate range from 0.35% to 0.50% times the actual daily amount by which the facility exceeds the sum of (i) the outstanding amount of revolving credit loans and (ii) the outstanding amount of letter of credit obligations.

The obligations under this credit facility are secured by substantially all assets of Ferrellgas, L.P., the general partner and certain subsidiaries of Ferrellgas, L.P. but specifically excluding (a) assets that are subject to Ferrellgas, L.P.’s accounts receivable securitization facility, (b) the general partner’s equity interest in Ferrellgas Partners and (c) equity interest in certain unrestricted subsidiaries.

Interest rate swaps

In May 2012, Ferrellgas, L.P. entered into a $140.0 million interest rate swap agreement to hedge against changes in fair value on a portion of its $300.0 million 9.125% fixed rate senior notes due 2017. Ferrellgas, L.P. received 9.125% and paid one-month LIBOR plus 7.96%, on the $140.0 million swapped. In October 2013, this interest rate swap was terminated. As a result, the operating partnership discontinued hedge accounting treatment for this agreement at a cost of $0.2 million, which was classified as loss on extinguishment of debt when the related senior notes were redeemed as discussed above. The operating partnership accounted for this agreement as a fair value hedge. In May 2012, Ferrellgas, L.P. also entered into a $140.0 million interest rate swap agreement to hedge against changes in fair value on a portion of its $500.0 million 6.5% fixed rate senior notes due 2021. Ferrellgas, L.P. receives 6.5% and pays a one-month LIBOR plus 4.715%, on the $140.0 million swapped. The operating partnership accounts for this agreement as a fair value hedge.

In May 2012, Ferrellgas, L.P. entered into a forward interest rate swap agreement to hedge against variability in forecasted interest payments on Ferrellgas, L.P.’s secured credit facility and collateralized note payable borrowings under the accounts receivable securitization facility. From August 2015 through July 2017, Ferrellgas, L.P. will pay 1.95% and receive variable payments based on one-month LIBOR for the notional amount of $175.0 million. From August 2017 through July 2018, Ferrellgas, L.P. will pay 1.95% and receive variable payments based on one-month LIBOR for the notional amount of $100.0 million. Ferrellgas, L.P. accounts for this agreement as a cash flow hedge.

Covenants

The senior notes and the credit facility agreement contain various restrictive covenants applicable to Ferrellgas, L.P. and its subsidiaries, the most restrictive relating to additional indebtedness. The only restriction that prohibits Ferrellgas, L.P. from making cash distributions, advances or loans of the minimum quarterly distribution is if a default or event of default exists or would exist upon making such distribution, advances or loans, or if Ferrellgas, L.P. fails to meet certain coverage tests. As of July 31, 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P. is in compliance with all requirements, tests, limitations and covenants related to these debt agreements.

	Contingent consideration liability
Balance at July 31, 2014	$	6,400

Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

F-24

	Fair value at July 31, 2015		Valuation technique		Unobservable input	Range	Weighted Average
Contingent consideration liability	$	100	Discounted cash flow	A.	Weighted average cost of capital (WACC)	N/A	20	%
				B.	Probability of forecast	5% - 80%	N/A

The valuation of the contingent consideration is based on unobservable inputs such as Ferrellgas, L.P.'s weighted average cost of capital and the likelihood of the acquired company meeting earnings thresholds. As of July 31, 2015, fluctuations in these inputs could have the following effect (in thousands):

	Increase/(decrease)
	5% increase in WACC			5% decrease in WACC		10% increase in best earnings forecast probability		10% decrease in best earnings forecast probability
Change in the fair value of contingent consideration	$	(10	)	$	—	$	200	$	(100	)

Methodology

The fair values of Ferrellgas, L.P.’s non-exchange traded commodity derivative contracts are based upon indicative price quotations available through brokers, industry price publications or recent market transactions and related market indicators. The fair values of interest rate swap contracts are based upon third-party quotes or indicative values based on recent market transactions.

The fair value of Ferrellgas, L.P.'s contingent consideration for the Sable acquisition is based upon Ferrellgas, L.P.'s estimate of the likelihood that the target EBITDA metric will be met and exceeded and the amount by which it could be exceeded then discounting that value at a risk- and inflation-adjusted rate. The inputs to this model are the likelihood of meeting and exceeding the target EBITDA metric and discount rate. Management and the sellers prepared an operating forecast based on Sable's operating capacities, historical performance, and projected oil and water volumes and set a target EBITDA metric. Management then assessed the likelihood of this target EBITDA metric being achieved and exceeded and assigned probabilities to various potential outcomes. To determine the appropriate discount rate, management used observable inputs such as inflation rates, short and long-term yields for U.S. government securities and our nonperformance risk. Due to the significant unobservable inputs required in this measurement, management determined that the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration liability is level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of other financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (except for current maturities of long-term debt) approximate their fair values because of their short-term nature. At July 31, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the estimated fair value of Ferrellgas, L.P.’s long-term debt instruments was $1,700.5 million and $1,215.3 million, respectively. Ferrellgas, L.P. estimates the fair value of long-term debt based on quoted market prices. The fair value of our consolidated debt obligations is a Level 2 valuation based on the observable inputs used for similar liabilities.

Ferrellgas, L.P.  has other financial instruments such as trade accounts receivable which could expose it to concentrations of credit risk. The credit risk from trade accounts receivable is limited because of a large customer base which extends across many different U.S. markets.

K.   Derivative instruments and hedging activities

Ferrellgas, L.P. is exposed to certain market risks related to its ongoing business operations. These risks include exposure to changing commodity prices as well as fluctuations in interest rates. Ferrellgas, L.P. utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices. Of these, the propane commodity derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. All other commodity derivative instruments do not qualify or are not designated as cash flow hedges, therefore, the change in their fair value are recorded currently in earnings. Ferrellgas, L.P. also periodically utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, which is discussed in Note H - Debt. Additional information related to derivatives is provided in Note B – Summary of significant accounting policies.

There was no effect on Ferrellgas, L.P.'s consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the year ended July 31, 2014 due to the change in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments.

The changes in derivatives included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) for the years ended July 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 were as follows: 

	For the year ended July 31,
Gains and losses on derivatives included in AOCI	2015			2014			2013
Beginning balance	$	6,483		$	2,066		$	(12,799	)
Change in value on risk management commodity derivatives	(70,291		)	15,473			2,032

Reclassification of gains and losses on interest rate hedges to interest expense	$	199		$	—		$	—
Ending balance	$	(38,906	)	$	6,483		$	2,066

Ferrellgas, L.P. expects to reclassify net losses of approximately $24.3 million to earnings during the next 12 months. These net losses are expected to be offset by increased margins on propane sales commitments Ferrellgas, L.P. has with its customers that qualify for the normal purchase normal sales exception.

During the years ended July 31, 2015 and 2014, Ferrellgas, L.P. had no reclassifications to earnings resulting from discontinuance of any cash flow hedges arising from the probability of the original forecasted transactions not occurring within the originally specified period of time defined within the hedging relationship.

As of July 31, 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P. had financial derivative contracts covering 2.9 million barrels of propane that were entered into as cash flow hedges of forward and forecasted purchases of propane.

As of July 31, 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P. had financial derivative contracts covering 0.3 million barrels of diesel and 0.1 million barrels of unleaded gasoline related to fuel hedges in transportation of propane.

Derivative Financial Instruments Credit Risk

Ferrellgas, L.P. is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to derivative financial and commodity instruments. Ferrellgas, L.P.’s counterparties principally consist of major energy companies and major U.S. financial institutions. Ferrellgas, L.P. maintains credit policies with regard to its counterparties that it believes reduces its overall credit risk. These policies include evaluating and monitoring its counterparties’ financial condition, including their credit ratings, and entering into agreements with counterparties that govern credit limits. Certain of these agreements call for the posting of collateral by the counterparty or by Ferrellgas, L.P. in the forms of letters of credit, parental guarantees or cash. Although Ferrellgas, L.P. has concentrations of credit risk associated with derivative financial instruments held by certain derivative financial instrument counterparties, the maximum amount of loss due to credit risk that, based upon the gross fair values of the derivative financial instruments, Ferrellgas, L.P. would incur no loss if these counterparties that make up the concentration failed to perform according to the terms of their contracts at July 31, 2015.  

Ferrellgas, L.P. holds certain derivative contracts that have credit-risk-related contingent features which dictate credit limits based upon the Partnership’s debt rating. As of July 31, 2015, a downgrade in the Partnership’s debt rating could trigger a reduction in credit limit and would result in an additional collateral requirement of $0.4 million. There were $0.4 million of derivatives with credit-risk-related contingent features in a liability position on July 31, 2015 and Ferrellgas, L.P. had posted no collateral in the normal course of business related to such derivatives.

L.    Transactions with related parties

Ferrellgas, L.P. has no employees and is managed and controlled by its general partner. Pursuant to Ferrellgas, L.P.’s partnership agreement, the general partner is entitled to reimbursement for all direct and indirect expenses incurred or payments it makes on behalf of Ferrellgas, L.P., and all other necessary or appropriate expenses allocable to Ferrellgas, L.P. or otherwise reasonably incurred by its general partner in connection with operating Ferrellgas, L.P.’s business. These costs primarily include compensation and benefits paid to employees of the general partner who perform services on Ferrellgas, L.P.’s behalf and are reported in the consolidated statements of earnings as follows:

	For the year ended July 31,
	2015		2014		2013
Operating expense	$	217,742	$	216,657	$	203,859
General and administrative expense	$	27,278	$	32,119	$	30,053

As a result of that issuance, Jamex Marketing, LLC owns 9.5% of our outstanding common units; however, neither Jamex Marketing, LLC nor any of its affiliates has any interest in our general partner or its board of directors or any control of our business or policies. Jamex Marketing, LLC, in connection with the TLA, enters into transactions with the operating partnership and its subsidiaries. Bridger provides crude oil logistics services for Jamex Marketing, LLC, including the purchase, sale, transportation and storage of crude oil by truck, terminal and pipeline. During fiscal 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P.'s total revenues and cost of sales from these transactions were $9.4 million and $8.4 million, respectively. The amounts due from and to Jamex Marketing at July 31, 2015, were $4.8 million and $4.2 million, respectively.

See additional discussions about transactions with the general partner and related parties in Note I – Partners’ capital.

M.    Contingencies and commitments

Litigation

Ferrellgas, L.P.’s operations are subject to all operating hazards and risks normally incidental to handling, storing, transporting and otherwise providing for use by consumers of combustible liquids such as propane and crude oil. As a result, at any given time, Ferrellgas, L.P. can be threatened with or named as a defendant in various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. Other than as discussed below, Ferrellgas, L.P. is not a party to any legal proceedings other than various claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. It is not possible to determine the ultimate disposition of these matters; however, management is of the opinion that there are no known claims or contingent claims that are reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Ferrellgas, L.P..

The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) initiated an investigation into certain practices related to the filling of portable propane cylinders. On March 27, 2014, the FTC filed an administrative complaint alleging that Ferrellgas, L.P. and one of its competitors colluded in 2008 to persuade a customer to accept the cylinder fill reduction from 17 pounds to 15 pounds. The complaint did not seek monetary remedies. Ferrellgas, L.P. reached a settlement with the FTC during the three months ended October 31, 2014 without any financial payment; the settlement has been approved by a vote of the Commission and became final after a public comment period.

Ferrellgas, L.P. has also been named as a defendant, along with a competitor, in putative class action lawsuits filed in multiple jurisdictions. The complaints, filed on behalf of direct and indirect customers of Ferrellgas, L.P.'s tank exchange business, reference the FTC complaint mentioned above. The lawsuits allege that Ferrellgas, L.P. and a competitor coordinated in 2008 to reduce the fill level in barbeque cylinders and combined to persuade a common customer to accept that fill reduction, resulting in increased cylinder costs to retailers and end-user customers in violation of federal and certain state antitrust laws. The lawsuits seek treble damages, attorneys’ fees, injunctive relief and costs on behalf of the putative class. These lawsuits have been consolidated into one case by a multidistrict litigation panel. Ferrellgas, L.P. believes it has strong defenses to the claims and intends to vigorously defend against the consolidated case. Ferrellgas, L.P. does not believe loss is probable or reasonably estimable at this time related to the putative class action lawsuit.

F-29

In addition, putative class action cases have been filed in California relating to residual propane remaining in the tank after use. Ferrellgas, L.P. believes it has strong defenses to the claims and intends to vigorously defend against the consolidated case.  Ferrellgas, L.P. does not believe loss is probable or reasonably estimable at this time related to the putative class action lawsuit.

Ferrellgas, L.P. was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court in Kansas. The complaint was the subject of a motion to dismiss which was granted, in part, in August 2011. The surviving claims alleged breach of contract and breach of the implied duty of good faith and fair dealing, both of which allegedly arise from the existence of an oral contract for continuous propane service. Ferrellgas, L.P. recently prevailed in a trial to determine whether the claims were required to be arbitrated, resulting in a dismissal of this case. There is no probable or reasonably estimable loss relating to this matter.

As of July 31, 2015, Bridger and Murex, LLC were arbitrating a dispute with respect to a sublease of approximately 220 rail cars by Bridger, which arbitration arose out of an action between Bridger and Murex in the 116th Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas, originally brought in April 2014. In August 2015, Ferrellgas, L.P. and Murex settled all claims subject to such dispute, with Ferrellgas, L.P. paying $10.4 million to Murex in such settlement. The liability was considered in Ferrellgas, L.P.'s acquisition method of accounting for Bridger.

Long-term debt-related commitments

Ferrellgas, L.P. has long and short-term payment obligations under agreements such as senior notes and its credit facility. See Note H – Debt – for a description of these debt obligations and a schedule of future maturities.

Operating lease commitments and buyouts

Ferrellgas, L.P. leases certain property, plant and equipment under non-cancelable and cancelable operating leases. Amounts shown in the table below represent minimum lease payment obligations under Ferrellgas, L.P.’s third-party operating leases with terms in excess of one year for the periods indicated. These arrangements include the leasing of transportation equipment, property, computer equipment and propane tanks. Ferrellgas, L.P. accounts for these arrangements as operating leases. 

Ferrellgas, L.P. is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of guarantees. The only material guarantees Ferrellgas, L.P. has are associated with residual value guarantees of operating leases. Most of the operating leases involving Ferrellgas, L.P.’s transportation equipment contain residual value guarantees. These transportation equipment lease arrangements are scheduled to expire over the next 7 fiscal years. Most of these arrangements provide that the fair value of the equipment will equal or exceed a guaranteed amount, or Ferrellgas, L.P. will be required to pay the lessor the difference. The fair value of these residual value guarantees was $1.5 million as of July 31, 2015. Although the fair values of the underlying equipment at the end of the lease terms have historically exceeded these guaranteed amounts, the maximum potential amount of aggregate future payments Ferrellgas, L.P. could be required to make under these leasing arrangements, assuming the equipment is worthless at the end of the lease term, was $7.0 million as of July 31, 2015. Ferrellgas, L.P. does not know of any event, demand, commitment, trend or uncertainty that would result in a material change to these arrangements.

Operating lease buyouts represent the maximum amount Ferrellgas, L.P. would pay if it were to exercise its right to buyout the assets at the end of their lease term.

The following table summarizes Ferrellgas, L.P.’s contractual operating lease commitments and buyout obligations as of July 31, 2015:

	Future minimum rental and buyout amounts by fiscal year
	2016		2017		2018		2019		2020		Thereafter
Operating lease obligations	$	39,999	$	31,497	$	25,599	$	20,084	$	14,402	$	16,078
Operating lease buyouts	$	2,738	$	1,816	$	3,217	$	3,011	$	2,693	$	9,355

Certain property and equipment is leased under non-cancelable operating leases, which require fixed monthly rental payments and which expire at various dates through 2026. Rental expense under these leases totaled $45.0 million, $35.6 million and $32.2 million for fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

N.    Employee benefits

F-30

Ferrellgas, L.P. has no employees and is managed and controlled by its general partner. Ferrellgas, L.P. assumes all liabilities, which include specific liabilities related to the following employee benefit plans for the benefit of the officers and employees of the general partner.

Ferrell Companies makes contributions to the ESOT, which causes a portion of the shares of Ferrell Companies owned by the ESOT to be allocated to employees’ accounts over time. The allocation of Ferrell Companies’ shares to employee accounts causes a non-cash compensation charge to be incurred by Ferrellgas, L.P., equivalent to the fair value of such shares allocated. This non-cash compensation charge is reported separately in Ferrellgas, L.P.’s consolidated statements of earnings and thus excluded from operating and general and administrative expenses. The non-cash compensation charges were $24.7 million, $21.8 million and $15.8 million during fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Ferrellgas, L.P. is not obligated to fund or make contributions to the ESOT.

The general partner and its parent, Ferrell Companies, have a defined contribution profit-sharing plan which includes both profit sharing and matching contribution features. The plan covers substantially all full time employees. The plan, which qualifies under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, also provides for matching contributions under a cash or deferred arrangement based upon participant salaries and employee contributions to the plan. Matching contributions for fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $3.9 million, $3.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

The general partner has a defined benefit plan that provides participants who were covered under a previously terminated plan with a guaranteed retirement benefit at least equal to the benefit they would have received under the terminated plan. Until July 31, 1999, benefits under the terminated plan were determined by years of credited service and salary levels. As of July 31, 1999, years of credited service and salary levels were frozen. The general partner’s funding policy for this plan is to contribute amounts deductible for Federal income tax purposes and invest the plan assets primarily in corporate stocks and bonds, U.S. Treasury bonds and short-term cash investments. During fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, other comprehensive income and other liabilities were adjusted by $(0.2) million, $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

O. Segment reporting

Ferrellgas, L.P. has two primary operations: propane and related equipment sales and midstream operations. These two operations result in three reportable operating segments: propane and related equipment sales, midstream operations - water solutions and midstream operations - crude oil logistics.

During June 2015, subsequent to an acquisition, Ferrellgas, L.P. formed a new midstream operation - crude oil logistics segment. During May 2014, subsequent to an acquisition, Ferrellgas, L.P. formed a new midstream operation - water solutions segment.

The chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating segments using an Adjusted EBITDA performance measure which is based on earnings before income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash employee stock ownership plan compensation charge, non-cash stock-based compensation charge, loss on disposal of assets, other income (expense), net, change in fair value of contingent consideration, litigation accrual and related legal fees associated with a class action lawsuit, acquisition and transition expenses and unrealized (non-cash) gain on changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments. This performance measure is not a GAAP measure, however, the components are computed using amounts that are determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of this performance measure to net earnings, which is its nearest comparable GAAP measure, is included in the tables below. In management's evaluation of performance, certain costs, such as compensation for administrative staff and executive management, are not allocated by segment and, accordingly, the following reportable segment results do not include such unallocated costs. The accounting policies of the operating segments are otherwise the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note B.

Assets reported within a segment are those assets that can be identified to a segment and primarily consist of trade receivables, property, plant and equipment, inventories, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. Cash, certain prepaid assets and other assets are not allocated to segments. Although Ferrellgas, L.P. can and does identify long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangible assets to reportable segments, Ferrellgas, L.P. does not allocate the related depreciation and amortization to the segment as management evaluates segment performance exclusive of these non-cash charges.

The propane and related equipment sales segment primarily includes the distribution and sale of propane and related equipment and supplies with concentrations in the Midwest, Southeast, Southwest and Northwest regions of the United States. Sales from propane distribution are generated principally from transporting propane purchased from third parties to propane distribution locations and then to tanks on customers’ premises or to portable propane tanks delivered to nationwide and local retailers.

F-31

Sales from portable tank exchanges, nationally branded under the name Blue Rhino, are generated through a network of independent and partnership-owned distribution outlets.

The midstream operations - crude oil logistics segment primarily includes a domestic crude oil transportation and logistics provider with an integrated portfolio of midstream assets. These assets connect crude oil production in prolific unconventional resource plays to downstream markets. Bridger's truck, pipeline terminal, pipeline, rail and maritime assets form a comprehensive, fee-for-service business model, and substantially all of its cash flow is expected to be generated from fee-based commercial agreements. Bridger's fee-based business model generates income by providing crude oil transportation and logistics services on behalf of producers and end users of crude oil.

The midstream operations - water solutions segment primarily includes salt water disposal wells that are a critical component of the oil and natural gas well drilling industry. Oil and gas wells generate significant volumes of salt water known as “flowback” and “production” water. Flowback is a water based solution that flows back to the surface during and after the completion of the hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) process whereby large volumes of water, sand and chemicals are injected under high pressures into rock formations to stimulate production. Production water is salt water from underground formations that are brought to the surface during the normal course of oil or gas production. In the oil and gas fields Ferrellgas, L.P. services, these volumes of water are transported by truck away from the fields to salt water disposal wells where it is injected into underground geologic formations using high-pressure pumps. Revenue is derived from fees charged to customers to dispose of salt water at the disposal facilities and crude oil sales from the skimming oil process.

Prior to the Sable acquisition in May 2014, Ferrellgas, L.P. managed and evaluated its operations as a single reportable segment. As the current three reportable segment structure is the result of both the Bridger Logistics Acquisition completed in June 2015 and the Sable acquisition completed during May 2014, comparative historical segment information for fiscal 2013 does not exist.

Following is a summary of segment information for the years ended July 31, 2015 and 2014.

P.    Quarterly data (unaudited)

The following summarized unaudited quarterly data includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, with the exception of those items indicated below), which Ferrellgas, L.P. considers necessary for a fair presentation. Due to the seasonality of the propane distribution business, first and fourth quarter Revenues, gross margin from propane and other gas liquids sales and Net earnings are consistently less than the second and third quarter results. Other factors affecting the results of operations include competitive conditions, demand for product, timing of acquisitions, variations in the weather and fluctuations in propane prices.

For the year ended July 31, 2015	First quarter			Second quarter		Third quarter		Fourth quarter
Revenues	$	443,355		$	665,973	$	532,551	$	382,511
