FERRELLGAS PARTNERS, L.P. REPORTS

SECOND QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2026 RESULTS

Liberty, MO., March 5, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. (OTC: FGPR) (“Ferrellgas” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for its 2026 second fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2026.

“Our team’s preparation at the beginning of fiscal 2026 enabled us to achieve strong second-quarter results,” said Tamria Zertuche, President and CEO. “Extended cold weather across much of the eastern region, combined with warmer conditions in the west, created both challenges and opportunities for the beginning of the winter heating season. Our employee-owners showed exceptional adaptability by reallocating personnel and resources to meet increased demand while continuing to drive growth and manage expenses. As a result, we achieved expanded margins, increased profit and are well positioned for the upcoming quarter and the rest of the fiscal year.”

Financial Highlights:

Gross profit increased by $3.0 million, or approximately 1%, during the quarter as compared to the prior-year period. Average propane prices (based on Mont Belvieu, Texas) declined 21.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the prior-year period. A $28.4 million, or approximately 4%, decline in revenue was more than offset by a $31.3 million, or approximately 10%, reduction in cost of product. Net earnings attributable to the Company increased by $3.3 million, or approximately 3%, to $102.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $98.8 million in the prior-year period, primarily driven by the increase in gross profit.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, rose by $9.1 million, or approximately 6%, to $166.1 million, compared to $157.0 million in the second quarter of the prior year. The improvement was driven by a $4.6 million reduction in general and administrative expenses, a $1.6 million decrease in operating expenses related to equipment leases, and a $3.0 million increase in gross profit. Lower general and administrative expenses were driven by changes in personnel expenses and reduced legal costs. The decrease in operating lease expenses were driven by the refinancing of several operating leases into finance leases during the quarter.

Preparation efforts in the prior quarter positioned the Company well to meet winter demand from residential customers, resulting in a $7.1 million, or approximately 3%, increase in gross profit for our retail business. This was partially offset by softer wholesale performance, as no hurricane related events occurred during the first six months of fiscal 2026. Margin per gallon continued to benefit from operational efficiencies, increasing approximately 6% as the Company reduced unproductive deliveries and skipped stops. These improvements contributed to a roughly 13% increase in operating income per gallon.

Operational Highlights:

As part of our winter readiness efforts, we upgraded our supply infrastructure to enhance inventory visibility and deploy predictive analytics, enabling more disciplined planning and reliable execution throughout the season. We realized the benefits in the second fiscal quarter, successfully meeting elevated customer demand while maintaining strong operational efficiency. Winter conditions arrived later in the quarter after unseasonably warm weather in November and December of fiscal 2026, particularly across the western half of the country. Average temperatures (measured by heating degree days) were 16% warmer than normal (based on AccuWeather’s ten-year average) and 27% warmer than the prior year quarter in the western half of the country. The above average temperatures in the west were partially offset by the cold in the east. By late January, Winter Storm Fern and other significant weather events in the eastern United States prompted widespread emergency declarations. Our national footprint allowed us to reposition drivers and equipment from west to east to meet increased demand.

The Retail teams continued to deliver profitable growth from tank sets with increases of 7.2% in all customer segments. Our residential conversion rate increased 3.4% over prior year quarter. While responding to heightened winter consumer demand, our Customer Service team maintained outbound sales initiatives that are expected to generate approximately one million additional gallons. Our National Sales team also secured six new national account customers during the quarter. The Company also transitioned 0.9% of our existing Will Call network, just over 6,100 locations, to Auto Fill delivery. This shift improves route density and overall efficiency, enhances demand forecasting, and contributes to stronger margin performance. By broadening our Auto Fill footprint, we are better equipped to serve customers proactively and dependably during periods of heightened winter demand. These wins underscore the strength of our national platform, combining dedicated account management, focused customer support, and dependable local operations to deliver a consistent and high-quality customer experience. Our continued emphasis on safety is also delivering measurable results with our Total Recordable Incident Rate improving 10% compared to the prior quarter.

Our Wholesale team’s prior quarter’s capital and operational investments included increases in drivers and trucks. In addition, the team opened seven new distribution service locations, enabling it to meet winter demand in the second quarter. The Company expanded capacity at one of our tank exchange production facilities to support strategic growth, seeing an approximate 25% throughput increase in the south central region of the country during periods of elevated seasonal demand. This allowed us to deliver more cylinders during Winter Storm Fern than any other two week period during the traditional summer peak months. The Company also donated filled propane tanks during Winter Storm Fern to nearly a dozen charities from Mississippi to North Carolina, fueling a variety of appliances and helping to keep storm victims warm and fed in the midst of widespread power outages, supporting our commitment to the communities we serve.

Our continued investment in telematics has strengthened our operational discipline by enhancing real-time visibility, improving driver safety performance, and achieving measurable gains in fuel efficiency and fleet productivity across the enterprise. Driven by strong financial and operational performance this quarter, the Company is poised to accelerate strategic growth, expand our customer base, and advance targeted efficiency investments that enhance margins and asset productivity. These tangible gains, combined with our disciplined focus on continuous improvement, position us to deliver consistent earnings growth, sustainable cash flow generation, and long-term value creation for our stakeholders.

On March 4, 2026, the board of directors of Ferrellgas, Inc., in its capacity as the general partner of the Company, declared a cash distribution on the Company’s Class B Units of $82.32 per Class B Unit, or approximately $107.0 million in the aggregate. The distribution is payable on or about March 13, 2026, to Class B Unitholders of record as of the close of business on March 6, 2026. Upon payment of this distribution, the Company will have met the “Class B Conversion Threshold” as defined in the Company’s partnership agreement.

On March 4, 2026, the board of directors of Ferrellgas, Inc., in its capacity as the general partner of the Company, approved the Company’s intent to elect, by written notice to the holders of the Class B Units, to convert all 1.3 million outstanding Class B Units into Class A Units shortly after the payment of the distribution. Upon the making of such election, each Class B Unit will be converted into five Class A Units in accordance with the Company’s partnership Agreement.

On Thursday, March 5, 2026, the Company will conduct a teleconference on the Internet at https://edge.media-server.com/mmc/p/2dyvibp4 to discuss the results of operations for the second fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2026.
