Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On November 30, 2009, Inergy, L.P. (the “Partnership”) issued a press release, which reported the Partnership’s results of operations for the fiscal fourth quarter and year ended September 30, 2009. The press release also contained a table reconciling forecasted Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010. The Partnership is amending and correcting the depreciation and amortization amounts in this table from a range of $116 million to $125 million to a range of $140 million to $150 million, which accordingly changes forecasted Net Income as reflected in the revised table. These revisions only impacted non-cash items and do not affect the previously announced Adjusted EBITDA guidance for fiscal 2010. The revised table is included herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information furnished pursuant to Items 2.02 and 7.01 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. The information furnished pursuant to Items 2.02 and 7.01 shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in this report on Form 8-K that is required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.
