ITEM 7.01. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
On November 3, 2004, Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (the "Partnership")
held an investors' conference call to review the Partnership's financial results
for the third quarter 2004. Furnished as Exhibit 99.1 is a copy of the
transcript of the Partnership's presentation during that call and the questions
and answers following the presentation.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of From 8-K, the information
set forth in this Item 7.01 and in the attached Exhibit shall be deemed to be
"furnished" and not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
Statements about the Partnership's outlook and all other statements
contained in the Exhibit 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 of the
Partnership's control, which could cause actual results to differ materially
from such statements. While the Partnership 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
the Partnership's annual and quarterly reports filed from time to time with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Partnership disclaims any intention or
obligation to revise any forward-looking statements, including financial
estimates, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
