   FFP Partners earned an estimated $96,000 in the second quarter of 1999 ($0.04
per unit),  compared  to a loss of $61,000 in the second  quarter of 1998 ($0.03
per unit).  Revenues are estimated to have increased to $1,028,000 in the second
quarter of 1999 from  $710,000 in the second  quarter of the prior  year,  a 45%
increase.  This  expected  increase  resulted  from the purchase on February 26,
1999, of 14 properties  now under lease to FFP Marketing  Company,  Inc. (AMEX -
"FMM") for use as  convenience  stores or truck stops. A review of the quarterly
results has not yet been completed and could modify these projections.

   Some  of  the  matters  discussed  here  contain  forward-looking  statements
regarding  the future  business  prospects  and plans of FFP Partners  which are
inherently subject to risks and uncertainties,  including competitive pressures,
changes in economic  conditions,  and the issuance of or changes in governmental
regulations. These issues, along with other factors which may be identified from
time to time in the  company's  reports filed with the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission,  could cause actual results or plans to differ materially from those
indicated in the forward-looking statements.
