## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**FERRELLGAS PARTNERS, L.P. ANNOUNCES**

**BOARD UPDATES AND SUCCESSION PLANNING DEVELOPMENTS**

**Liberty, MO.**, May 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. (OTC: FGPR) ("Ferrellgas" or the "Company") today announced updates to its board of directors and progress in its long-term succession planning, marking another milestone in the Company's strategic transformation.

As previously disclosed, last fall Ferrellgas successfully renewed and extended its Credit Agreement and completed the refinancing of its Senior Notes due 2026, addressing near-term maturities. In addition, in March, the Company completed the conversion of all outstanding Class B Units into Class A Units. These critical transactions provided the Company with greater financial flexibility, enhanced liquidity, and a more simplified capital structure providing a more stable foundation for future growth.

Building on these achievements, the Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Andrew Safran to its Board of Directors, effective May 21, 2026. Mr. Safran brings more than three decades of investment banking and private equity experience, with a deep specialization in natural resources and energy infrastructure, further enhancing the Board's depth of expertise.

In addition, the Company is pleased to announce that Pamela A. Breuckmann has been appointed Vice Chair of the Board, effective May 22, 2026. Ms. Breuckmann's elevated role reflects her significant contributions to the Company, her deep institutional knowledge, and her important role in advancing the Company's governance and succession planning initiatives.

Jim Ferrell will continue to serve as Chairman of the Board. A titan of the propane industry, Mr. Ferrell's legacy is defined by his visionary leadership over more than six decades. Since assuming leadership of the family business in 1965, he transformed a small, local operation into a Fortune 1000 company and one of the largest propane retailers in the United States. His contributions to the industry are unparalleled, having served as President of the World LP Gas Association and as an inaugural inductee into the LP Gas Hall of Fame. His commitment to innovation and employee ownership remains the cornerstone of the Ferrellgas culture.

"These actions reflect meaningful progress across multiple dimensions of our business," said Jim Ferrell, Chairman of the Board. "We have strengthened our balance sheet, simplified our structure, and enhanced our leadership. Andrew brings decades of leadership experience across the energy, infrastructure, and financial sectors, and we are pleased to welcome him to the Board. In addition, Pamela's appointment as Vice Chair reflects her deep commitment to the Company and her strong contributions to the Board over many years."

"These announcements represent another important step in the continued evolution of our governance and leadership structure," said Tamria Zertuche, President and CEO. "Following the successful completion of several key financial and capital structure initiatives, we remain focused on positioning Ferrellgas for long-term success."
