Ferrellgas Simplifies Equity Structure After Solid Quarterly Results

Ferrellgas Partners ( (FGPR) ) has issued an announcement.

Ferrellgas Partners reported on March 5, 2026, that second-quarter fiscal 2026 gross profit rose about 1% to deliver a 3% increase in net earnings to $102.2 million, as a sharp decline in propane prices cut revenue but more steeply reduced product costs and boosted margins. Adjusted EBITDA increased 6% to $166.1 million, helped by lower general and administrative and lease expenses, while operational initiatives such as supply infrastructure upgrades, telematics investments, and a shift of some Will Call customers to Auto Fill improved efficiency and operating income per gallon.

Winter weather patterns, including late-quarter cold and Winter Storm Fern in the eastern U.S., highlighted the value of Ferrellgas’ national footprint, enabling the company to reallocate drivers and equipment, grow residential gross profit, expand tank sets, and win new national accounts. On March 4, 2026, the board declared an $82.32 per Class B Unit cash distribution totaling about $107 million and approved converting all 1.3 million outstanding Class B Units into Class A Units after payment, a move that meets the partnership’s Class B conversion threshold and simplifies its equity structure for unitholders.

The most recent analyst rating on (FGPR) stock is a Hold with a $21.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ferrellgas Partners stock, see the FGPR Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on FGPR Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, FGPR is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak financial statement quality—sharp revenue decline, earnings instability, and a stressed balance sheet with high debt and negative equity—despite supportive positive cash flow. Technicals are a notable positive with an uptrend across moving averages and favorable momentum. Valuation remains unattractive/less informative due to losses (negative P/E), while earnings-call and recent events add some support through refinancing, contract wins, and capital-structure actions but do not fully offset leverage and profitability risks.
