AmeriGas Partners Reports Record Results, Reiterates 2008 Guidance

VALLEY FORGE, Pa., April 30 — AmeriGas Propane, Inc., general partner of AmeriGas Partners, L.P. (NYSE: APU), reported net income for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2008 of $133.0 million, a nearly 11% increase compared to net income of $119.9 million for the same period last year.

The Partnership’s earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) increased to $171.8 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2008, a new record for the quarter and a 9.8% increase over last year’s record EBITDA of $156.4 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, retail volumes sold were essentially unchanged from the prior-year period, as the beneficial impacts of cooler weather and higher volumes sold from businesses acquired last year were more than offset by a number of factors, including customer conservation resulting from significant increases in propane sales prices caused by record high propane costs and general economic conditions. Weather was virtually normal during the recent quarter and 4.0% colder than in the prior-year period, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The average wholesale cost of propane at Mont Belvieu, Texas for the 2008 quarter increased more than 50% over the average cost in the same period last year.

Eugene V. N. Bissell, chief executive officer of AmeriGas, said, “I am happy to report record second quarter EBITDA for a second consecutive year. Faced with a challenging operating environment, our employees continued to execute on our strategies and delivered excellent operating results while maintaining a focus on building long-term value for unitholders. Based upon the strength of our results, we continue to expect EBITDA to be in the range of $300 million to $310 million for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008. In addition, yesterday we announced a distribution increase of 5% to $2.56 per unit on an annualized basis and increased our annual distribution growth objective to 5% from 3%. These announcements clearly reflect our confidence in the AmeriGas business model of long term, steady growth.”

Revenues for the quarter were $1,006.7 million versus $809.8 million a year ago primarily due to higher retail selling prices associated with significantly higher commodity prices. Operating income rose 10% to $153.3 million for the quarter principally reflecting higher retail unit margins partially offset by higher operating and administrative expenses. Operating and administrative expenses increased $9.0 million year-over-year for the quarter primarily due to expenses associated with acquisitions and higher vehicle and uncollectible accounts expenses.

AmeriGas Partners is the nation’s largest retail propane marketer, serving nearly 1.3 million customers from over 600 locations in 46 states. UGI Corporation (NYSE:UGI), through subsidiaries, owns 44% of the Partnership and individual unitholders own the remaining 56%.

(a)	In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 03-6, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128” (“EITF 03-6”), the Partnership calculates income per limited partner unit for each period according to distributions declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings, as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. In periods with undistributed earnings above certain levels, the calculation according to the two-class method results in an increased allocation of undistributed earnings to the General Partner.
	Theoretical distributions of net income in accordance with EITF 03-6 for the three, six and twelve months ended March 31, 2008 resulted in an increased allocation of net income to the General Partner which had the effect of decreasing earnings per diluted limited partner unit by $0.73, $0.79 and $0.15, respectively. Theoretical distributions of net income in accordance with EITF 03-6 for the three and the six months ended March 31, 2007 resulted in an increased allocation of net income to the General Partner which had the effect of decreasing earnings per diluted limited partner unit by $0.62 and $0.69, respectively. EITF 03-6 did not impact net income per limited partner unit for the twelve months ended March 31, 2007.
(b)	Earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) should not be considered as an alternative to net income (as an indicator of operating performance) and is not a measure of performance or financial condition under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Management believes EBITDA is a meaningful non-GAAP financial measure used by investors to compare the Partnership’s operating performance with other companies within the propane industry and our ability to meet loan covenants. The Partnership’s definition of EBITDA may be different from that used by other companies. Management uses EBITDA to compare year-over-year profitability of the business without regard to capital structure as well as to compare the relative performance of the Partnership to that of other master limited partnerships without regard to their financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or historical cost basis. In view of the omission of interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization from EBITDA, management also assesses the profitability of the business by comparing net income for the relevant years.

Management also uses EBITDA to assess its profitability because the Partnership’s parent, UGI Corporation, uses the Partnership EBITDA to assess the profitability of the Partnership. UGI Corporation discloses the Partnership’s EBITDA as the profitability measure to comply with the requirement in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” to provide profitability information about its domestic propane segment. Management also considers that weather significantly impacts demand for propane and profitability because many customers use propane for heating purposes.
