Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data The following financial statements of Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Partnership) are listed below: Page Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (KPMG LLP, Dallas, TX, Auditor Firm ID 185 ) 68 Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 71 Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 72 Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 74 Consolidated Statements of Changes in Capital (Deficit) for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 75 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 76 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 77 67 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Unitholders and Board of Directors Martin Midstream Partners L.P. and Martin Midstream GP LLC: Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Martin Midstream Partners L.P. and subsidiaries (the Partnership) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in capital (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 24, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Sufficiency of audit evidence over revenue As discussed in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Partnership recorded approximately $708 million of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. Revenue is derived from various revenue streams including throughput and storage; land transportation, inland marine transportation and offshore marine transportation; sulfur and fertilizer product sales, sulfur services, and natural gas liquids and lubricant product sales. The Partnership’s processes used to record revenue differ for each of these revenue streams, as do the related information technology (IT) systems for certain of these revenue streams. We identified the evaluation of the sufficiency of audit evidence obtained over revenue as a critical audit matter. A high degree of subjective auditor judgment was required to evaluate such evidence due to the number of revenue streams and IT systems involved. This included determining the revenue streams over which procedures would be performed and evaluating the nature and extent of audit evidence obtained over each revenue stream. The audit effort also required specialized skills and knowledge to evaluate the various IT systems. 68 The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We, with the assistance of IT professionals, applied auditor judgment to determine the nature and extent of procedures to be performed over revenue, including the determination of the revenue streams over which those procedures were performed. For each revenue stream where procedures were performed, we evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls over the Partnership’s process to record revenue, and involved IT professionals, who assisted in testing certain IT applications. For certain revenue streams where procedures were performed, we assessed the recorded revenue by selecting a sample of transactions and comparing the revenue recorded for consistency with the underlying contractual documentation and comparing with the related customer payment received associated with the transactions. For other revenue streams where procedures were performed, we performed a software-assisted data analysis to test relationships among certain revenue transactions. Through these procedures we then compared the amounts recognized for consistency with underlying documentation, including contracts or payment and transaction support. We evaluated the sufficiency of audit evidence obtained over revenue by assessing the results of procedures performed, including the appropriateness of the nature and extent of such evidence. /s/ KPMG LLP We have served as the Partnership’s auditor since 2002. Dallas, Texas February 24, 2025 69 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Unitholders and Board of Directors Martin Midstream Partners L.P. and Martin Midstream GP LLC: Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We have audited Martin Midstream Partners L.P. and subsidiaries' (the Partnership) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Partnership maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Partnership as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in capital (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated February 24, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. Basis for Opinion The Partnership’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ KPMG LLP Dallas, Texas February 24, 2025 70 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (the "Partnership") is a publicly traded limited partnership with a diverse set of operations focused primarily in the Gulf Coast region of the U.S. Its four primary business lines include: terminalling, processing, and storage services for petroleum products and by-products; land and marine transportation services for petroleum products and by-products, chemicals, and specialty products; sulfur and sulfur-based products processing, manufacturing, marketing and distribution; and marketing, distribution, and transportation services for natural gas liquids ("NGL") and blending and packaging services for specialty lubricants and grease. The Partnership provides specialty services to major and independent oil and gas companies, independent refiners, large chemical companies, and other wholesale purchasers of certain petroleum products and by-products, with significant business concentrated around the U.S. Gulf Coast refinery complex, which is a major hub for petroleum refining, natural gas gathering and processing, and support services for the exploration and production industry. The petroleum products and by-products the Partnership gathers, transports, stores and markets are produced primarily by major and independent oil and gas companies who often rely on third parties, such as the Partnership, for the transportation and disposition of these products. Martin Resource Management Corporation indirectly owns, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Martin Resource LLC, 100% of MMGP Holdings, LLC ("Holdings"), which is the sole member of Martin Midstream GP LLC ("MMGP"), the general partner of the Partnership. As a result, Martin Resource Management Corporation indirectly owns 100 % of MMGP. NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES (a) Principles of Presentation and Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries and equity method investees. In the opinion of the management of the Partnership’s general partner, all adjustments and elimination of significant intercompany balances necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods shown have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. In addition, the Partnership evaluates its relationships with other entities to identify whether they are variable interest entities under certain provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), 810-10 and to assess whether it is the primary beneficiary of such entities. If the determination is made that the Partnership is the primary beneficiary, then that entity is included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with ASC 810-10. No such variable interest entities existed as of December 31, 2024 or 2023. (b) Product Exchanges The Partnership enters into product exchange agreements with third parties, whereby the Partnership agrees to exchange NGLs and sulfur with third parties. The Partnership records the balance of exchange products due to other companies under these agreements at quoted market product prices and the balance of exchange products due from other companies at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. Product exchanges with the same counterparty are entered into in contemplation of one another and are combined. The net amount related to location differentials is reported in "Product sales" or "Cost of products sold" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. (c) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is generally determined by using the FIFO method for all inventories except lubricants, greases, lubricants packaging, and fertilizer inventories. Lubricants, greases, and lubricants packaging inventories cost is determined using standard cost, which approximates actual cost. Fertilizer inventory is determined using weighted average cost, which approximates actual cost. 77 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) (d) Revenue Recognition Terminalling and Storage – Revenue is recognized for storage contracts based on the contracted monthly tank fixed fee. For throughput contracts, revenue is recognized based on the volume moved through the Partnership’s terminals at the contracted rate. For storage and throughput contracts at the Partnership's underground NGL storage facility, revenue is recognized based on the volume stored and moved through the facility at the contracted rate. For the Partnership’s tolling agreement, revenue is recognized based on the contracted monthly reservation fee and throughput volumes moved through the facility. Specialty Products – NGL revenue is recognized when title is transferred, which is generally when the product is delivered by truck, rail, or pipeline to the Partnership's NGL customers or when the customer collects the product from our facilities. When lubricants are sold by truck or rail, revenue is recognized when title is transferred, which is generally when the product leaves the Partnership's facility, but can vary based on the specific terms of the contract. Delivery of product is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. Sulfur Services – Revenue from sulfur and fertilizer product sales is recognized when the customer takes title to the product. Delivery of product is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. Revenue from sulfur services is recognized as services are performed during each monthly period. The performance of the service is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. Transportation – Revenue related to land transportation is recognized for line hauls based on a mileage rate. For contracted trips, revenue is recognized upon completion of the particular trip. The performance of the service is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. Revenue related to marine transportation is recognized for time charters based on a per day rate. For contracted trips, revenue is recognized upon completion of the particular trip. The performance of the service is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. (e) Equity Method Investments The Partnership uses the equity method of accounting for investments in unconsolidated entities where the ability to exercise significant influence over such entities exists. Investments in unconsolidated entities consist of capital contributions and advances plus the Partnership’s share of accumulated earnings as of the entities’ latest fiscal year-ends, less capital withdrawals and distributions. Equity method investments are subject to impairment under the provisions of ASC 323-10, which relates to the equity method of accounting for investments in common stock. No portion of the net income from these entities is included in the Partnership’s operating income. (f) Property, Plant, and Equipment Owned property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Owned buildings and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the respective assets. Equipment under finance leases is stated at the present value of minimum lease payments less accumulated amortization. Equipment under finance leases is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. Routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense while costs of betterments and renewals are capitalized. When an asset is retired or sold, its cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the difference between net book value of the asset and proceeds from disposition is recognized as gain or loss. (g) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill is subject to a fair-value based impairment test on an annual basis, or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. The Partnership is required to identify its reporting units and determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets. The Partnership is required to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to the carrying amount of the reporting unit. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the Partnership will record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. 78 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) When assessing the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets, the Partnership may first assess qualitative factors in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or other intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. After assessing qualitative factors, if the Partnership determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or other intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, then performing a quantitative assessment is not required. If an initial qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of a reporting unit or other intangible asset, a quantitative analysis will be performed. The Partnership may also elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to a quantitative analysis depending on the facts and circumstances. Of the Partnership's four reporting units, the terminalling and storage, transportation, specialty products and sulfur services reporting units all contain goodwill. In performing a quantitative analysis, recoverability of goodwill for each reporting unit is measured using a weighting of the discounted cash flow method and two market approaches (the guideline public company method and the guideline transaction method). The discounted cash flow model incorporates discount rates commensurate with the risks involved. Use of a discounted cash flow model is common practice in assessing impairment in the absence of available transactional market evidence to determine the fair value. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow valuation model include discount rates, growth rates, cash flow projections and terminal value rates. Discount rates, growth rates and cash flow projections are the most sensitive and susceptible to change as they require significant management judgment. Discount rates are determined by using a weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"). The WACC considers market and industry data as well as company-specific risk factors for each reporting unit in determining the appropriate discount rate to be used. The discount rate utilized for each reporting unit is indicative of the return an investor would expect to receive for investing in such a business. Management, considering industry and company specific historical and projected data, develops growth rates and cash flow projections for each reporting unit. Terminal value rate determination follows common methodology of capturing the present value of perpetual cash flow estimates beyond the last projected period assuming a constant WACC and low long-term growth rates. If the calculated fair value is less than the current carrying amount, the Partnership will record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Significant changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value for each reporting unit which could give rise to future impairment. Changes to these estimates and assumptions can include, but may not be limited to, varying commodity prices, volume changes and operating costs due to market conditions and/or alternative providers of services. Based upon the most recent annual review as of August 31, 2024, no goodwill impairment exists within the Partnership's reporting units for the year ended December 31, 2024. No goodwill impairment was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023 or 2022. Other intangible assets that have finite lives are tested for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment is indicated if the carrying amount of a long-lived intangible asset exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If impairment is indicated, the Partnership would record an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset. There were no intangible asset impairments for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 or 2022. (h) Debt Issuance Costs Debt issuance costs relating to the Partnership’s credit facility and senior notes are deferred and amortized over the terms of the debt arrangements and are shown, net of accumulated amortization, as a reduction of the related long-term debt. In connection with the issuance, amendment, expansion and restatement of debt arrangements, the Partnership incurred debt issuance costs of $ 23 , $ 14,289 and $ 64 in the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Amortization and write-off of debt issuance costs, which is included in interest expense, totaled $ 3,085 , $ 3,978 and $ 3,152 for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Accumulated amortization amounted to $ 32,397 and $ 29,313 at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. 79 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) (i) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets In accordance with ASC 360-10, long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets with definite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and would no longer be depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet. The Partnership identified a triggering event related to a certain asset group in its transportation segment in 2022. The Partnership performed a recoverability test and concluded the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group exceeded the carrying value of the asset group and no impairment was recorded. (j) Asset Retirement Obligations Under ASC 410-20, which relates to accounting requirements for costs associated with legal obligations to retire tangible, long-lived assets, the Partnership records an asset retirement obligation at present value based upon estimated costs to retire the asset in the period in which it is incurred by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. In each subsequent period, the liability is accreted over time towards the ultimate obligation amount and the capitalized costs are depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. (k) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities In accordance with certain provisions of ASC 815-10 related to accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities, all derivatives and hedging instruments are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset or liability measured at fair value and changes in fair value are recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. If a derivative qualifies for hedge accounting, changes in the fair value can be offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged item through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until such time as the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Derivative instruments not designated as hedges are marked to market with all market value adjustments being recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. (l) Use of Estimates Management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (m) Environmental Liabilities and Litigation The Partnership’s policy is to accrue for losses associated with environmental remediation obligations when such losses are probable and reasonably estimable. Accruals for estimated losses from environmental remediation obligations generally are recognized no later than completion of the remedial feasibility study. Such accruals are adjusted as further information develops or circumstances change. Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation obligations are not discounted to their present value. Recoveries of environmental remediation costs from other parties are recorded as assets when their receipt is deemed probable. 80 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) (n) Trade and Accrued Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Partnership’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Partnership’s existing accounts receivable. (o) Deferred Catalyst Costs The cost of the periodic replacement of catalysts is deferred and amortized over the catalyst’s estimated useful life, which ranges from 12 to 36 months. (p) Deferred Turnaround Costs The Partnership capitalizes the cost of major turnarounds and amortizes these costs over the estimated period to the next turnaround, which ranges from 12 to 36 months. (q) Income Taxes The Partnership is subject to the Texas margin tax, which is considered a state income tax, and is included in income tax expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Since the tax base on the Texas margin tax is derived from an income-based measure, the margin tax is construed as an income tax and, therefore, the recognition of deferred taxes applies to the margin tax. The impact on deferred taxes as a result of this provision is immaterial. The Partnership's financial statements recognize the current and deferred income tax consequences that result from the activities of its wholly owned C-Corporation subsidiary, Martin Transport, Inc. ("MTI"), during the current period pursuant to the provisions of the FASB ASC 740 related to income taxes. As a result of the common control transaction with the Partnership, the deferred tax consequences of the changes in the tax bases of MTI’s assets and liabilities were included in equity under the provisions of ASC 740-20-45-11. With respect to MTI, income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In the ordinary course of business, there may be many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain. The calculation of tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, we use a two-step approach for recognizing and measuring tax benefits taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In the first step, “recognition”, the Partnership determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Partnership presumes that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. In the second step, “measurement”, a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement based upon management’s intent regarding negotiation and litigation. In evaluating all income tax positions for all open years, management has determined all positions are more likely than not to be sustained at full benefit based upon their technical merit under applicable tax laws. (r) Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) for the Partnership includes unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments. In accordance with ASC 815-10, the Partnership records deferred hedge gains and losses on its derivative instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges as other comprehensive income (loss). 81 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) NOTE 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). ASU 2023-07 requires annual and interim disclosures that are expected to improve reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The provisions of ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership adopted ASU 2023-07 and its expanded segment disclosure requirements in compliance with the required adoption guidelines. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” ("ASU 2023-09"), which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The provisions of ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and can be applied on either a prospective or retroactive basis. ASU 2023-09 will result in the required additional disclosures being included in the Partnership's consolidated financial statements, once adopted. NOTE 4. EXIT ACTIVITIES AND DIVESTITURES During the second quarter of 2023, the Partnership completed its previously announced exit from its butane optimization business at the conclusion of the butane selling season. This exit did not qualify as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205. Going forward, with respect to butane, the Partnership will operate as a fee-based butane logistics business, primarily continuing to utilize its north Louisiana underground storage assets, which have both truck and rail capability. This logistics business will also utilize the Partnership's truck transportation assets for fee-based product movements. As a result of this new business model, the Partnership will no longer carry butane inventory, enabling the Partnership to reduce commodity risk exposure, cash flow and earnings volatility, and working capital requirements. The following revenues and costs, which are included in the financial results for all periods presented, are not expected to be incurred under the new fee-based butane logistics business model. The butane optimization business has historically been included in the Partnership's Specialty Products operating segment. 2024 2023 2022 Products revenue $ — $ 70,539 $ 172,756 Cost of products sold — 72,283 190,677 Selling, general and administrative expenses — 512 2,094 $ — $ ( 2,256 ) $ ( 20,015 ) Divestiture of Stockton, California Sulfur Terminal. On October 7, 2022, the Partnership closed on the sale of its Stockton Sulfur Terminal to Gulf Terminals LLC for net proceeds of approximately $ 5,250 , which were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the Partnership's credit facility. The divestiture of the Stockton Sulfur Terminal did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation under the guidance of ASC 205-20. 82 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) NOTE 5. REVENUE The following table disaggregates our revenue by major source: 2024 2023 2022 Terminalling and storage segment Throughput and storage $ 89,067 $ 86,514 $ 80,193 $ 89,067 $ 86,514 $ 80,193 Transportation segment Land transportation $ 165,353 $ 166,717 $ 166,631 Inland transportation 51,826 50,890 45,050 Offshore transportation 6,755 6,070 7,327 $ 223,934 $ 223,677 $ 219,008 Sulfur service segment Sulfur product sales $ 31,347 $ 30,170 $ 42,247 Fertilizer product sales 83,852 97,395 124,580 Sulfur services 14,572 13,430 12,337 $ 129,771 $ 140,995 $ 179,164 Specialty products segment Natural gas liquids product sales $ 144,238 $ 214,713 $ 398,422 Lubricant product sales 120,612 132,064 142,091 $ 264,850 $ 346,777 $ 540,513 Total revenues $ 707,622 $ 797,963 $ 1,018,878 Revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties where the Partnership is acting as an agent. The Partnership recognizes revenue when the Partnership satisfies a performance obligation, which typically occurs when the Partnership transfers control over a product to a customer or as the Partnership delivers a service. The following is a description of the principal activities - separated by reportable segments - from which the Partnership generates revenue. Terminalling and Storage Segment Revenue is recognized for storage contracts based on the contracted monthly tank fixed fee. For throughput contracts, revenue is recognized based on the volume moved through the Partnership’s terminals at the contracted rate. For storage and throughput contracts at the Partnership's underground NGL storage facility, revenue is recognized based on the volume stored and moved through the facility at the contracted rate. For the Partnership’s tolling agreement, revenue is recognized based on the contracted monthly reservation fee and throughput volumes moved through the facility. Throughput and storage revenue in the table above includes non-cancelable revenue arrangements that are under the scope of ASC 842, whereby the Partnership has committed certain Terminalling and Storage assets in exchange for a minimum fee. Transportation Segment Revenue related to land transportation is recognized for line hauls based on a mileage rate. For contracted trips, revenue is recognized upon completion of the particular trip. The performance of the service is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. 83 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) Revenue related to marine transportation is recognized for time charters based on a per day rate. For contracted trips, revenue is recognized upon completion of the particular trip. The performance of the service is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. Sulfur Services Segment Revenue from sulfur and fertilizer product sales is recognized when the customer takes title to the product. Delivery of product is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. Revenue from sulfur services is recognized as services are performed during each monthly period. The performance of the service is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. Specialty Products Segment NGL revenue is recognized when title is transferred, which is generally when the product is delivered by truck, rail, or pipeline to the Partnership's NGL customers or when the customer picks up the product from our facilities. When lubricants are sold by truck or rail, revenue is recognized when title is transferred, which is generally when the product leaves the Partnership's facility, but can vary based on the specific terms of the contract. Delivery of product is invoiced as the transaction occurs and is generally paid within a month. The table below includes estimated minimum revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period. The Partnership applies the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less. 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 Thereafter Total Terminalling and Storage Throughput and storage $ 44,774 $ 46,117 $ 47,500 $ 48,990 $ 50,393 $ 105,367 $ 343,141 Specialty Products Natural Gas Liquids 6,657 3,867 — — — — 10,524 Sulfur Services Product sales 14,237 14,237 14,237 — — — 42,711 Service revenues 11,234 10,259 4,038 3,540 3,540 34,515 67,126 Total $ 76,902 $ 74,480 $ 65,775 $ 52,530 $ 53,933 $ 139,882 $ 463,502 NOTE 6.

Gross assets under finance leases were $ 77 and $ 0 at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Accumulated amortization associated with finance leases was $ 10 and $ 0 at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Additions to property, plant and equipment included in accounts payable at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 were $ 2,661 , $ 2,943 , and $ 1,949 , respectively. No equipment was purchased under finance lease obligations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022. NOTE 8. GOODWILL The following table represents the goodwill balance by reporting unit at December 31, 2024 and 2023 as follows: 2024 2023 Carrying amount of goodwill: Terminalling and storage $ 6,756 $ 6,756 Specialty products 4,229 4,229 Sulfur services 5,197 5,197 Transportation 489 489 Total goodwill $ 16,671 $ 16,671 NOTE 9. LEASES The Partnership has numerous operating leases primarily for terminal facilities and transportation and other equipment. The leases generally provide that all expenses related to the equipment are to be paid by the lessee. Operating lease right of use ("ROU") assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Because most of the Partnership's leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Partnership uses its imputed collateralized rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The estimated rate is based on a risk-free rate plus a risk-adjusted margin. The Partnership's leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 12 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. The Partnership includes extension periods and excludes termination periods from its lease term if, at commencement, it is reasonably likely that the Partnership will exercise the option. 85 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) The components of lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 were as follows: 2024 2023 2022 Operating lease cost $ 22,256 $ 16,198 $ 10,752 Finance lease cost: Amortization of right-of-use assets 11 6 92 Interest on lease liabilities 3 — 9 Short-term lease cost 4,748 5,415 11,546 Variable lease cost 163 191 185 Total lease cost $ 27,181 $ 21,810 $ 22,584 Supplemental cash flow information for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 related to leases were as follows: 2024 2023 2022 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows from operating leases $ 39,763 $ 29,820 $ 20,153 Operating cash flows from finance leases 3 — 9 Financing cash flows from finance leases 9 9 279 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations: Operating leases $ 21,133 $ 38,935 $ 22,433 Finance leases 77 — — 86 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) NOTE 10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The Partnership uses a valuation framework based upon inputs that market participants use in pricing certain assets and liabilities. These inputs are classified into two categories: observable inputs and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs represent market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs represent the Partnership's own market assumptions. Unobservable inputs are used only if observable inputs are unavailable or not reasonably available without undue cost and effort. The two types of inputs are further prioritized into the following hierarchy: Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity's own assumptions and are not corroborated by market data. There were no assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2024 or 2023. The Partnership is required to disclose estimated fair values for its financial instruments. Fair value estimates are set forth below for these financial instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument: • Accounts and other receivables, trade and other accounts payable, accrued interest payable, other accrued liabilities, income taxes payable and due from/to affiliates: The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity and highly liquid nature of these instruments, and as such these have been excluded from the table below. There is negligible credit risk associated with these instruments. • Current and non-current portion of long-term debt: The carrying amount of the credit facility approximates fair value due to the debt having a variable interest rate and is in Level 2. The estimated fair value of the 2028 Notes is considered Level 2, as the fair value is based upon quoted prices for identical liabilities in markets that are not active. December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value 2028 Notes 386,377 436,172 381,965 414,453 Total $ 386,377 $ 436,172 $ 381,965 $ 414,453 NOTE 11. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES The Partnership’s results of operations could be materially impacted by changes in commodity prices and interest rates. In an effort to manage its exposure to these risks, the Partnership periodically enters into various derivative instruments, including commodity and interest rate hedges. At the time derivative contracts are entered into, the Partnership assesses whether the nature of the instrument qualifies for hedge accounting treatment according to the requirements of ASC 815 – Derivatives and Hedging . For those transactions designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes, the Partnership documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the various hedge transactions. The Partnership also assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows or fair value of hedged items. All derivatives and hedging instruments are included on the balance sheet as an asset or a liability measured at fair value. Changes in fair value for hedging instruments are recognized on the balance sheet through Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI"). Settlements related to effective hedging relationships will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings during the period in which the hedged transactions are reflected on the income statement. From time to time, derivatives designated for hedge accounting may be closed prior to contract expiration. The accounting treatment of closed positions depends on whether the closure occurred due to the hedged transaction occurring early or if the hedged transaction is still expected to occur as originally forecasted. For hedged transactions that occur early, the closure results in the realized gain or loss from closure being recognized in the same period the accelerated hedged transaction affects earnings. For hedged transactions that are still expected to occur as originally forecasted, the closure results in the realized gain or loss being deferred until the hedged transaction affects earnings. 88 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) If it is determined that hedged transactions associated with cash flow hedges are no longer probable of occurring, the gain or loss associated with the instrument is recognized immediately into earnings. From time to time, we may have derivative financial instruments for which we do not elect hedge accounting. Changes in fair value for derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized as gains and losses in the earnings of the periods in which they occur. (a) Commodity Derivative Instruments The Partnership from time to time has used derivatives to manage the risk of commodity price fluctuation. Commodity risk is the adverse effect on the value of a liability or future purchase that results from a change in commodity price. The Partnership has established a hedging policy and monitors and manages the commodity market risk associated with potential commodity risk exposure. In addition, the Partnership has focused on utilizing counterparties for these transactions whose financial condition is appropriate for the credit risk involved in each specific transaction. The Partnership enters into hedging transactions to protect a portion of its commodity price risk exposure. These hedging arrangements are in the form of swaps for NGLs. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no outstanding derivatives. For information regarding gains and losses on commodity derivative instruments, see "Tabular Presentation of Gains and Losses on Derivative Instruments" below. (b) Tabular Presentation of Gains and Losses on Derivative Instruments The following table summarizes the loss recognized in AOCI at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and the gain (loss) reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, for derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges: Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in AOCI Location of Gain (Loss) Reclassified from AOCI into Income Amount of Gain (Loss) Reclassified from AOCI into Income 2024 2023 2024 2023 2022 Commodity contracts $ — $ — Cost of products sold $ — $ — $ 816 Total $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 816 NOTE 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS As of December 31, 2024, Martin Resource Management Corporation owned 6,114,532 of the Partnership’s common units representing approximately 15.7 % of the Partnership’s outstanding limited partnership units. Martin Resource Management Corporation controls the Partnership's general partner by virtue of owning 100 % of the membership interests in Holdings, the sole member of the Partnership's general partner. The Partnership’s general partner, MMGP, owns a 2 % general partner interest in the Partnership. The Partnership’s general partner’s ability, as general partner, to manage and operate the Partnership, and Martin Resource Management Corporation’s ownership as of December 31, 2024 of approximately 15.7 % of the Partnership’s outstanding limited partnership units, effectively gives Martin Resource Management Corporation the ability to veto some of the Partnership’s actions and to control the Partnership’s management. The following is a description of the Partnership’s material related party agreements: Omnibus Agreement Omnibus Agreement . The Partnership and its general partner are parties to the Omnibus Agreement dated November 1, 2002, with Martin Resource Management Corporation that governs, among other things, potential competition and indemnification obligations among the parties to the agreement, related party transactions, the provision of general administration and support services by Martin Resource Management Corporation and the Partnership’s use of certain Martin Resource Management Corporation trade names and trademarks. The Omnibus Agreement was amended on November 25, 2009, to include processing crude oil into finished products including naphthenic lubricants, distillates, asphalt and other intermediate cuts. The Omnibus Agreement was amended further on October 1, 2012, to permit the Partnership to provide 89 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P.

The margin is set every three months. All amounts outstanding at December 31, 2024 were at Adjusted Term SOFR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for revolving loans that are SOFR loans currently ranges from 2.75 % to 3.75 %, and the applicable margin for revolving loans that are alternate base rate loans currently ranges from 1.75 % to 2.75 %. The applicable margin for SOFR borrowings at December 31, 2024 is 3.50 %. The applicable margin for SOFR borrowings effective February 24, 2025 is 3.25 %. The credit facility contains various covenants that limit the Partnership’s ability to make distributions; make certain investments and acquisitions; enter into certain agreements; incur indebtedness; sell assets; and make certain amendments to the Partnership's omnibus agreement with Martin Resource Management Corporation (the "Omnibus Agreement"). 2 The Partnership was in compliance with all debt covenants as of December 31, 2024. 3 On February 8, 2023, the Partnership completed the sale of $ 400,000 in aggregate principal amount of 11.50 % senior secured second lien notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”). The Partnership used the proceeds of the 2028 Notes to repurchase, through a tender offer and then redemption, all of the Partnership’s 10.00 % senior secured 1.5 lien notes due 2024 and 11.50 % senior secured second lien notes due 2025, repay a portion of the indebtedness under the credit facility, and pay fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The indenture for the 2028 Notes restricts the Partnership’s ability to sell assets; pay distributions or repurchase units or redeem or repurchase subordinated debt; make investments; incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue preferred units; and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets. 4 Effective February 8, 2023, in connection with the completion of our sale of the 2028 Notes, we amended our credit facility to, among other things, reduce the commitments thereunder from $ 275,000 to $ 200,000 (with further scheduled reductions to $ 175,000 on June 30, 2023 and $ 150,000 on June 30, 2024) and extend the scheduled maturity date of the credit facility to February 8, 2027.

Capitalized interest was $ 1,153 , $ 310 , and $ 0 for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Partnership had irrevocable letters of credit outstanding totaling $ 9,150 . 96 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) NOTE 15. PARTNERS' CAPITAL (DEFICIT) As of December 31, 2024, partners’ capital consisted of 39,001,086 common limited partner units, representing a 98 % partnership interest, and a 2 % general partner interest. Martin Resource Management Corporation, through subsidiaries, owned 6,114,532 of the Partnership's common limited partner units representing approximately 15.7 % of the Partnership's outstanding common limited partner units. MMGP, the Partnership's general partner, owns the 2 % general partner interest. The Partnership Agreement contains specific provisions for the allocation of net income and losses to each of the partners for purposes of maintaining their respective partner capital accounts. Impact on Partners' Capital (Deficit) Related to Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control Under ASC 805, assets and liabilities transferred between entities under common control are accounted for at the historical cost of those entities' ultimate parent, in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. Any difference in the amount paid by the transferee versus the historical cost of the assets transferred is recorded as an adjustment to equity (contribution or distribution) by the transferee. This is in contrast with a business combination between unrelated parties, where assets and liabilities are recorded at their fair values at the acquisition date, with any excess of amounts paid over the fair value representing goodwill. From time to time, the most recent being in 2019, the Partnership has entered into common control acquisitions from Martin Resource Management Corporation. The consideration transferred totaling $ 552,058 exceeds the historical cost of the net assets received. This excess of the purchase price over the historical cost of the net assets received has resulted in cumulative distributions of $ 289,019 reflected as reductions to Partners' capital (deficit). Distributions of Available Cash The Partnership distributes all of its available cash (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) within 45 days after the end of each quarter to unitholders of record and to the general partner. Available cash is generally defined as all cash and cash equivalents of the Partnership on hand at the end of each quarter less the amount of cash reserves its general partner determines in its reasonable discretion is necessary or appropriate to: (i) provide for the proper conduct of the Partnership’s business; (ii) comply with applicable law, any debt instruments or other agreements; or (iii) provide funds for distributions to unitholders and the general partner for any one or more of the next four quarters, plus all cash on the date of determination of available cash for the quarter resulting from working capital borrowings made after the end of the quarter. Net Income per Unit The Partnership follows the provisions of the FASB ASC 260-10 related to earnings per share, which addresses the application of the two-class method in determining income per unit for master limited partnerships having multiple classes of securities that may participate in partnership distributions accounted for as equity distributions. Undistributed earnings are allocated to the general partner and limited partners utilizing the contractual terms of the Partnership Agreement. Distributions to the general partner pursuant to certain incentive distribution rights ("IDRs") held by the general partner are limited to available cash that will be distributed as defined in the Partnership Agreement. Accordingly, the Partnership does not allocate undistributed earnings to the general partner for the IDRs because the general partner's share of available cash is the maximum amount that the general partner would be contractually entitled to receive if all earnings for the period were distributed. When current period distributions are in excess of earnings, the excess distributions for the period are to be allocated to the general partner and limited partners based on their respective sharing of losses specified in the Partnership Agreement. Additionally, as required under FASB ASC 260-10-45-61A, unvested share-based payments that entitle employees to receive non-forfeitable distributions are considered participating securities, as defined in FASB ASC 260-10-20, for earnings per unit calculations. For purposes of computing diluted net income per unit, the Partnership uses the more dilutive of the two-class and if-converted methods. Under the if-converted method, the weighted-average number of subordinated units outstanding for the period is added to the weighted-average number of common units outstanding for purposes of computing basic net income per unit and the resulting amount is compared to the diluted net income per unit computed using the two-class method. The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) allocated to the general partner and limited partners for purposes of calculating net income (loss) attributable to limited partners per unit: 97 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) Years Ended December 31, 2024 2023 2022 Net loss $ ( 5,207 ) $ ( 4,549 ) $ ( 10,334 ) Less general partner’s interest in net loss: Distributions payable on behalf of general partner interest 16 16 16 General partner interest in undistributed loss ( 120 ) ( 107 ) ( 223 ) Less loss allocable to unvested restricted units ( 25 ) ( 14 ) ( 40 ) Limited partners’ interest in net loss $ ( 5,078 ) $ ( 4,444 ) $ ( 10,087 ) The following are the unit amounts used to compute the basic and diluted earnings per limited partner unit for the periods presented: Years Ended December 31, 2024 2023 2022 Basic weighted average limited partner units outstanding 38,831,355 38,771,657 38,726,048 Dilutive effect of restricted units issued — — — Total weighted average limited partner diluted units outstanding 38,831,355 38,771,657 38,726,048 All outstanding units were included in the computation of diluted earnings per unit and weighted based on the number of days such units were outstanding during the period presented. All common unit equivalents were antidilutive for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 because the limited partners were allocated a net loss in these periods. 98 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) NOTE 16. UNIT BASED AWARDS - LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS The Partnership recognizes compensation cost related to unit-based awards to both employees and non-employees in its consolidated financial statements in accordance with certain provisions of ASC 718. Amounts recognized in operating expense and selling, general, and administrative expense in the consolidated financial statements with respect to these plans are as follows: For the Year Ended December 31, 2024 2023 2022 Restricted unit awards Employees $ — $ — $ — Non-employee directors 187 163 161 Phantom unit Awards Employees 3,070 ( 177 ) 3,124 Non-employee directors — — — Total unit-based compensation expense $ 3,257 $ ( 14 ) $ 3,285 Long-Term Incentive Plans The Partnership's general partner has long-term incentive plans for employees and directors of the general partner and its affiliates who perform services for the Partnership. 2021 Phantom Unit Plan On July 21, 2021, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee approved the Martin Midstream Partners L.P. 2021 Phantom Unit Plan (the “2021 Plan”), effective as of the same date. The 2021 Plan permits granting the awards of phantom units and phantom unit appreciation rights (collectively, "phantom unit awards") to any employee or non-employee director of the Partnership, including its executive officers. The awards may be time-based or performance-based and will be paid, if at all, in cash. The award of a phantom unit under the 2021 Plan entitles the participant to a cash payment equal to the value of the phantom unit on the vesting date or dates, which value is the fair market value of a common unit of the Partnership (a “Unit”) on such vesting date or dates. The award of a phantom unit appreciation right entitles the recipient to a cash payment equal to the difference between the value of a phantom unit on the vesting date or dates in excess of the value assigned by the Compensation Committee to the phantom unit as of the grant date. Phantom units and phantom unit appreciation rights granted to participants do not confer upon participants any right to a Unit. On July 21, 2021, the Compensation Committee approved forms of time-based award agreements for phantom units and phantom unit appreciation rights, both of which awards vest in full on the third anniversary of the grant date. The grant date value of a phantom unit under a phantom unit appreciation right award is equal to the average of the closing price for a Unit during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the grant date of the award. Generally, vesting of an award is subject to a participant remaining continuously employed with the Partnership through the vesting date. However, if prior to the vesting date (i) a participant is terminated without cause (as defined in the award agreement) or terminates employment after the participant has attained both the age of 65 and ten years of employment (“retirement-eligible”), a prorated portion of the award will vest and be paid in cash no later than the 30 th day following such termination date (subject to a six-month delay in payment for certain retirement-eligible participants) or (ii) there is a change in control of the Partnership (as defined in the 2021 Plan), the award will vest in full and be paid in cash no later than the 30 th day following the date of the change of control; provided, that the participant has been in continuous employment through the termination or change in control date, as applicable. On April 20, 2022, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee approved the First Amendment to the 2021 Plan, effective as of the same date, which amendment increased the total number of phantom units available for grant 99 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) under the 2021 Plan from 2,000,000 units to 5,000,000 units. On April 20, 2022, 365,000 phantom units and 1,097,500 phantom unit appreciation rights were granted to employees of the general partner and its affiliates who perform services for the Partnership. On July 19, 2023, 1,179,500 phantom units and 505,500 phantom unit appreciation rights were granted to employees of the general partner and its affiliates who perform services for the Partnership. 2025 Phantom Unit Plan On February 11, 2025, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee approved the Martin Midstream Partners L.P. 2025 Phantom Unit Plan (the “2025 Plan”) to supersede the 2021 Plan, effective as of the same date. The 2025 Plan contains substantially the same terms and conditions as the 2021 Plan. On February 11, 2025, 1,210,000 phantom units and 425,000 phantom unit appreciation rights were granted to employees of the general partner and its affiliates who perform services for the Partnership. See “Item 11. Executive Compensation – Martin Midstream Partners L.P. Long-Term Incentive Plans – Phantom Unit Plan.” Phantom unit awards are recorded in operating expense and selling, general and administrative expense based on the fair value of the vested portion of the awards on the balance sheet date. The fair value of these awards is updated at each balance sheet date and changes in the fair value of the vested portions of the awards are recorded as increases or decreases to compensation expense within operating expense and selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. All of the Partnership's outstanding phantom unit awards at December 31, 2024 met the criteria to be treated under liability classification in accordance with ASC 718, given that these awards will settle in cash on the vesting date. Compensation expense for the phantom awards is based on the fair value of the units as of the balance sheet date as further discussed below, and such costs are recognized ratably over the service period of the awards. As the fair value of liability awards is required to be re-measured each period end, stock compensation expense amounts recognized in future periods for these awards will vary. The estimated future cash payments of these awards are presented as liabilities within "Trade and other accounts payable" and "Other long-term obligations" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2024, there was a total of $ 2,783 of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested phantom unit awards. These costs are expected to be recognized over a remaining life of 1.47 years. The fair value of the phantom unit awards was estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation model as of the balance sheet date. The Monte Carlo valuation model is based on random projections of stock price paths and must be repeated numerous times to achieve a probabilistic assessment. Expected volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of the Partnership’s common units as well as a set of peer companies. Restricted Unit Plan On May 26, 2017, the unitholders of the Partnership approved the Martin Midstream Partners L.P. 2017 Restricted Unit Plan (the “2017 LTIP”). The 2017 LTIP currently permits the grant of awards covering an aggregate of 3,000,000 common units, all of which can be awarded in the form of restricted units. The 2017 LTIP is administered by the Compensation Committee. A restricted unit is a unit that is granted to grantees with certain vesting restrictions, which may be time-based and/or performance-based. Once these restrictions lapse, the grantee is entitled to full ownership of the unit without restrictions. The Compensation Committee may determine to make grants under the 2017 LTIP containing such terms as the Compensation Committee shall determine under the 2017 LTIP. With respect to time-based restricted units ("TBRUs"), the Compensation Committee will determine the time period over which restricted units granted to employees and directors will vest. The Compensation Committee may also award a percentage of restricted units with vesting requirements based upon the achievement of specified pre-established performance targets ("PBRUs"). The performance targets may include, but are not limited to, the following: revenue and income measures, cash flow measures, net income before interest expense and income tax expense ("EBIT"), net income before interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), distribution coverage metrics, expense measures, liquidity measures, market measures, corporate sustainability metrics, and other measures related to acquisitions, dispositions, operational objectives and succession planning objectives. PBRUs are earned only upon our achievement of an objective performance measure for the performance period. PBRUs which vest are payable in common units. Unvested units granted under the 2017 LTIP may or may not participate in cash distributions depending on the terms of each individual award agreement. 100 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) The restricted units issued to directors generally vest in equal annual installments over a four-year period. In February 2024, the Partnership issued 28,760 TBRUs to each of the Partnership's three independent directors under the 2017 LTIP. These restricted common units vest in equal installments of 7,190 units on January 24, 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028. The restricted units are valued at their fair value at the date of grant, which is equal to the market value of common units on such date. A summary of the restricted unit activity for the year ended December 31, 2024 is provided below: Number of Units Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Unit Non-vested, beginning of year 141,390 $ 2.99 Granted (TBRU) 86,280 $ 2.26 Vested ( 58,806 ) $ 2.86 Forfeited — $ — Non-Vested, end of year 168,864 $ 2.65 Aggregate intrinsic value, end of year $ 606 A summary of the restricted units’ aggregate intrinsic value (market value at vesting date) and fair value of units vested (market value at date of grant) during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 is provided below: For the Year Ended December 31, 2024 2023 2022 Aggregate intrinsic value of units vested $ 46 $ 89 $ 92 Fair value of units vested $ 168 $ 178 $ 188 As of December 31, 2024, there was $ 292 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested time-based restricted units. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.40 years. NOTE 17. INCOME TAXES The components of income tax expense from operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 are as follows: 2024 2023 2022 Current: Federal $ 2,318 $ 904 $ 1,179 State 1,625 828 1,004 3,943 1,732 2,183 Deferred: Federal 595 3,051 4,815 State ( 341 ) 1,135 929 254 4,186 5,744 Total income tax expense $ 4,197 $ 5,918 $ 7,927 The operations of a partnership are generally not subject to income taxes, except for Texas margin tax, because its income is taxed directly to its partners. The Texas margin tax is considered a state income tax and is included in income tax expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Since the tax base on the Texas margin tax is derived from an income-based measure, the margin tax is construed as income tax, and therefore, the recognition of deferred taxes applies to the margin 101 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) tax. The impact on deferred taxes as a result of this provision is immaterial. State income taxes attributable to the Texas margin tax relating to the operation of the Partnership of $ 925 , $ 440 and $ 496 were recorded in income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Total income tax expense relating to the operation of MTI, a wholly owned C-Corporation subsidiary of the Partnership (“Taxable Subsidiary”), of $ 3,272 , $ 5,478 and $ 7,431 was recorded in income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The income tax expense from the Taxable Subsidiary operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 differs from the "expected" tax expense (computed by applying the federal corporate rate of 21% to income before income taxes of the Taxable Subsidiary) as follows: 2024 2023 2022 "Expected" tax expense $ 2,669 $ 3,880 $ 6,702 Increase in income taxes resulting from: State income taxes, net of federal income tax expense 913 1,357 1,135 Other non-deductible (non-taxable) items 299 306 ( 86 ) Other, net ( 609 ) ( 65 ) ( 320 ) Actual tax expense $ 3,272 $ 5,478 $ 7,431 Cash paid for income taxes was $ 3,356 , $ 1,404 and $ 2,250 for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Deferred taxes are the result of differences between the bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. Significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows: 2024 2023 Deferred tax assets: Bad debt reserves $ 130 $ 49 Goodwill and intangibles 9,216 10,532 Employee benefits 12 4 Operating leases 30 — Interest expense 1,186 334 Tax loss carryforwards 118 861 Other 150 178 Subtotal 10,842 11,958 Less: Valuation allowance — — Total net deferred tax assets 10,842 11,958 Deferred tax liabilities: Property and equipment ( 896 ) ( 1,747 ) Operating leases — ( 11 ) Total deferred tax liabilities ( 896 ) ( 1,758 ) Net deferred tax assets $ 9,946 $ 10,200 Deferred tax assets are regularly reviewed for recoverability and a valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, management considers all available positive and negative evidence, including the ability to carryback operating losses to prior periods and the expected future utilization of net operating loss carryforwards, the reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected taxable income, and tax-planning strategies. On the basis of these considerations, as of December 31, 2024, management believes it is more likely than not that the Taxable Subsidiary will realize the benefit of the existing deferred tax assets. 102 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) Federal income taxes refundable related to the operation of the Taxable Subsidiary of $ 44 and $ 29 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, are included in “Other current assets”. "Income taxes payable" includes a state income tax liability related to the operation of the Partnership of $ 931 and $ 567 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Also included in "Income taxes payable" are state income tax liabilities related to the operation of the Taxable Subsidiary of $ 352 and $ 85 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. At December 31, 2024, MTI had net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $ 2,546 related to state taxes. Of these net operating loss carryforwards, approximately $ 2,445 will expire between 2031 and 2041 and approximately $ 101 may be carried forward indefinitely. The federal net operating loss carryforwards were fully utilized in 2024. The operations of the Partnership are generally not subject to income taxes, except as discussed above, because its income is taxed directly to its partners. The net tax basis in the Partnership's assets and liabilities is greater (less) than the reported amounts on the financial statements by approximately $ 69,103 and $ 124,695 as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the tax years that remain open to assessment are 2021, 2022 and 2023. NOTE 18. BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is a group of executives, comprised of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of the Partnership's general partner. CODM may use different operating measures to assess operating results and allocate resources among the Partnership's four segments (outlined below), however the measure that is most consistent with the amounts included in the consolidated financial statements is operating income. The CODM utilizes this measure to evaluate the current financial performance and project the future financial performance of each segment to determine the allocation of capital resources. The Partnership's four reportable segments are comprised of (1) Terminalling and Storage, (2) Transportation, (3) Sulfur Services and (4) Specialty Products. The operating segments within each of our reportable segments have been aggregated based on the similarity of their economic and other characteristics, including different product type and services. The Terminalling and Storage segment generates revenue by providing terminalling, processing, and storage services for petroleum products and by-products. Storage revenue is earned through contracted monthly tank fixed fees, while throughput revenue is based on the volume moved through the Partnership’s terminals at contracted rates. Tolling revenue is derived from contracted monthly reservation fees and throughput volumes processed at the facility. The Transportation segment earns revenue by offering land and marine transportation services for petroleum products, by-products, chemicals, and specialty products. Land transportation revenue is based on mileage rates for line hauls or completion of contracted trips. Marine transportation revenue comes from time charters, calculated on a per-day basis, or from the completion of contracted trips. The Sulfur Services segment generates revenue by providing processing, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution services for sulfur and sulfur-based products. Revenue from sulfur and fertilizer product sales is recognized when the customer takes title to the product. Revenue from sulfur services is earned as services are performed during each monthly period. The Specialty Products segment earns revenue by providing marketing, distribution, and transportation services for NGLs as well as blending and packaging services for specialty lubricants and greases. NGL revenue is recognized upon the sale of products via truck, rail, or pipeline. For lubricants and greases, revenue is recognized upon their sale by truck or rail. 103 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) NOTE 19. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Contingencies From time to time, the Partnership is subject to various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership. On December 31, 2015, the Partnership received a demand from a customer in its lubricants packaging business for defense and indemnity in connection with various lawsuits filed against it, which generally alleged that the customer engaged in unlawful and deceptive business practices in connection with its marketing and advertising of its private label motor oil (the “Marketing Lawsuits”). The Partnership disputed and continues to dispute that it has any obligation to defend or indemnify the customer for the customer’s conduct. Accordingly, on January 7, 2016, the Partnership filed a Complaint for Declaratory Judgment in the Chancery Court of Davidson County, Tennessee (the “Tennessee Court”), under Case No. 16-0018-BC, requesting a judicial determination that the Partnership did not owe the customer the demanded defense and indemnity obligations (the “Litigation”). The Marketing Lawsuits pending in federal court against the customer were transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri under the consolidated case MDL No. 2709 for pretrial proceedings (the “Consolidated Lawsuits”). On March 1, 2017, at the joint request of the customer and the Partnership, the Tennessee Court administratively closed the Litigation. In 2021, the customer settled the Consolidated Lawsuits. On December 17, 2021, at the request of the customer, the Tennessee Court reopened the Litigation and the customer asserted various counterclaims against the Partnership seeking, among other things, to recover its costs of defending and settling the Consolidated Lawsuits. At this time, we are unable to determine what ultimate exposure we may have in this matter, if any. The Partnership intends to vigorously defend the counterclaims asserted by the customer in the Litigation. The trial for the Litigation is expected to be held in the first half of 2026. NOTE 20. INVESTMENT IN DSM SEMICHEM LLC On October 19, 2022, Martin ELSA Investment LLC, the Partnership's affiliate, entered into definitive agreements with Samsung C&T America, Inc. and Dongjin USA, Inc., an affiliate of Dongjin Semichem Co., Ltd., to form DSM Semichem LLC (“DSM”). DSM will produce and distribute electronic level sulfuric acid (“ELSA”). By leveraging the Partnership's existing assets located in Plainview, Texas and installing additional facilities (the “ELSA Facility”) as required, DSM will produce ELSA that meets the strict quality standards required by the recent advances in semiconductor manufacturing. In addition to owning a 10 % non-controlling interest in DSM, the Partnership will be the exclusive provider of feedstock to the ELSA Facility. The Partnership, through its affiliate MTI, will also provide land transportation services for the ELSA produced by DSM. On April 1, 2024, the Partnership contributed $ 6,500 in cash to DSM, which represents the cash contribution required pursuant to DSM's limited liability agreement for the Partnership's 10 % non-controlling interest. Also, in conjunction with the formation of DSM, we contributed approximately 22 acres of land. The Partnership recognizes its 10 % interest in DSM as "Investment in DSM Semichem LLC" on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Partnership accounts for its ownership interest in DSM under the equity method of accounting. Selected financial information for DSM is as follows: As of December 31, Year ended December 31, Total Assets Long-Term Debt Members' Equity/Partners' Capital Revenues Net Income (Loss) 2024 DSM Semichem LLC $ 105,773 $ 31,700 $ 68,513 $ — $( 6,240 ) NOTE 21. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION The Partnership's operations are conducted by its operating subsidiaries as it has no independent assets or operations. The Operating Partnership, the Partnership’s wholly owned subsidiary, and the Partnership's other operating subsidiaries have issued in the past, and may issue in the future, unconditional guarantees of senior or subordinated debt securities of the Partnership. The guarantees that have been issued are full, irrevocable and unconditional and joint and several. In addition, the Operating Partnership may also issue senior or subordinated debt securities which, if issued, will be fully, irrevocably and 107 MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated) unconditionally guaranteed by the Partnership. Substantially all of the Partnership's operating subsidiaries are subsidiary guarantors of its outstanding 2028 Notes and any subsidiaries other than the subsidiary guarantors are minor. NOTE 22. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Quarterly Distribution. On January 21, 2025, the Partnership declared a quarterly cash distribution of $ 0.005 per common unit for the fourth quarter of 2024, or $ 0.02 per common unit on an annualized basis, which was paid on February 14, 2025 to unitholders of record as of February 7, 2025. Amendment to Credit Facility . On February 13, 2025, we amended the interest coverage ratio and first lien leverage ratios in the credit facility for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources — Description of Our Indebtedness — Credit Facility.” 2025 Phantom Unit Plan . On February 11, 2025, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee approved the Martin Midstream Partners L.P. 2025 Phantom Unit Plan (the “2025 Plan”), effective as of the same date. The 2025 Plan permits the awards of phantom units and phantom unit appreciation rights to any employee or non-employee director of the Partnership, including its executive officers. The awards may be time-based or performance-based and will be paid, if at all, in cash. 108 Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None.
