Could MMLP beat the long-term trend and outperform its industry?
I like to use data from the most recent 12 months, which either annualizes the most recent 6-month earnings update, or in some cases, the most recent annual report is already the latest available financial data. This method allows me to examine various companies in a uniform manner using new information. For Martin Midstream Partners, its latest earnings (trailing twelve month) is US$15.79M, which, in comparison to the prior year's figure, has jumped by a non-trivial 86.39%. Since these figures are somewhat short-term, I’ve computed an annualized five-year figure for Martin Midstream Partners's earnings, which stands at US$9.60M This means that, generally, Martin Midstream Partners has been able to increasingly raise its net income over the past couple of years as well.
