PART I
Item 1. Business
GENERAL
Kaneb Services, Inc. ("Kaneb" or the "Company") conducts its principal
businesses in four industry segments: (i) pipeline and terminaling, (ii) product
marketing, (iii) information services and (iv) specialized industrial services.
The pipeline and terminaling and product marketing segments operate through a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Kaneb Pipe Line Company. The information
services and industrial services segments operate through the wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Kaneb Information Services, Inc. and Furmanite Worldwide, Inc.,
respectively. Kaneb Pipe Line Company ("KPL") operates and manages refined
petroleum products pipeline transportation systems and petroleum products and
specialty liquids terminal storage and pipeline facilities for the benefit of
Kaneb Pipe Line Partners, L.P. ("KPP" or the "Partnership"), which owns such
systems and facilities through its subsidiaries. See "Pipeline and Terminaling
Services." KPL also conducts product marketing activities through another
wholly-owned subsidiary. Acquired by KPL in March 1998, this business provides
wholesale motor fuel marketing services throughout the Great Lakes and Rocky
Mountain regions and in California. See "Product Marketing Services." Kaneb
Information Services, Inc. is engaged in the information management services
industry through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, which offer products and
services that, among other functions, provide consulting services and computer
hardware to federal and state governmental agencies and private sector
customers, provide consulting services to hospitals and hospital networks
implementing telemedicine systems and enable financial institutions to monitor
the insurance coverage of their loan collateral. See "Information Services."
Furmanite Worldwide, Inc., and its domestic and international subsidiaries and
affiliates (collectively, "Furmanite"), provide specialized industrial services,
including underpressure leak sealing, on-site machining, valve testing and
repair and other engineering products and services, primarily to electric power
generating plants, petroleum refineries and other process industries in
Continental Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia-Pacific. See
"Industrial Services."
Kaneb Services, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware on January 23, 1953.
The Company conducts its business through the subsidiaries identified above,
among others. Kaneb's principal operating office is located at 2435 North
Central Expressway, Richardson, Texas 75080 and its telephone number is (972)
699-4000.
OPERATING SEGMENTS
Financial information regarding Kaneb's operating segments and foreign
operations is presented under the caption "Business Segment Data" in Note 11 to
the Company's consolidated financial statements. Such information is hereby
incorporated by reference into this Item 1.
PIPELINE AND TERMINALING SERVICES
Through its KPL subsidiary, Kaneb manages and operates its refined
petroleum products pipeline transportation system and petroleum products and
specialty liquids terminal storage business, for the benefit of KPP, which owns
such systems and facilities through its subsidiaries. The pipeline business
consists primarily of the transportation, as a common carrier, of refined
petroleum products in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South
Dakota and Wyoming, as well as related terminaling activities. The terminaling
business is conducted by KPP under the tradenames of "ST Services" and
"StanTrans, Inc.," among others (collectively, "ST"). Kaneb operates ST's 34
terminal storage facilities in 19 states and the District of Columbia and six
terminal storage facilities in the United Kingdom, with total storage capacity
of approximately 28.8 million barrels. Including those situated along its
refined petroleum products pipeline systems, the Partnership's terminal storage
operations comprise the third largest independent liquids terminaling company in
the United States. For the year ended December 31, 1999, the pipeline and
terminaling services segments' revenues and operating income were $158.0 million
and $64.3 million, respectively. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Conditions and Results of Operations". For a more detailed discussion
of the business, activities and results of operations of KPP, reference is made
to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999, and
other publicly filed documents of the Partnership (NYSE: KPP).
Pipeline Transportation Systems
Markets Served
KPP pipeline transportation operations currently consist of two primary
pipeline systems: the East and West Pipelines (the "Pipelines"), with its
operational headquarters located in Wichita, Kansas. The East Pipeline, which
was built commencing in 1953, is a 2,092 mile integrated pipeline, ranging
between six and sixteen inches in diameter, that transports refined petroleum
products received from refineries in southeast Kansas or other interconnecting
pipelines to terminals in Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota
and to receiving pipeline connections in Kansas. The East Pipeline has direct
connections to two Kansas refineries and has direct access by third-party
pipelines to four other refineries in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. The East
Pipeline also provides access to Gulf Coast suppliers of refined petroleum
products through connecting pipelines which receive products from a pipeline
originating on the Gulf Coast and receives propane through five connecting
pipelines from gas processing plants in Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.
The East Pipeline's operation also includes 16 public truck loading terminals
located in five states, comprised of a total of 233 tanks having storage
capacity of approximately 3,500,000 barrels of product, and has intermediate
storage facilities in McPherson and El Dorado, Kansas, consisting of 23 tanks
having an aggregate storage capacity of approximately 922,000 barrels.
The West Pipeline, acquired by the Partnership from Wyco Pipe Line
Company in February 1995, consists of approximately 550 miles of six to eight
inch diameter pipeline that transports refined petroleum products received
directly and by other interconnecting pipelines from refineries located in
Colorado, Montana, South Dakota and Wyoming to terminals in Colorado, South
Dakota and Wyoming. The West Pipeline's operations include four public truck
loading terminals, also located in Colorado, South Dakota and Wyoming, having
storage capacity of over 1,700,000 barrels of product. Through these facilities
and operations, the West Pipeline serves the Denver and northeastern Colorado
markets and supplies jet fuel to Ellsworth Air Force Base, Rapid City, South
Dakota.
The West Pipeline is the nearest pipeline system paralleling the East
Pipeline to the west. Consequently, there is a high level of commonality of
shippers on the Pipelines and, due to the proximity of the East and West
Pipelines to one another, they often face similar competitive issues. The
Pipelines' more significant competitors include refineries, common carrier
pipelines, proprietary pipelines owned and operated by major integrated and
large independent oil companies and other companies in the areas where the
Partnership's pipeline systems and operations deliver products. In particular,
the Pipelines' major competitor is an independent regulated common carrier
pipeline system that operates approximately 100 miles east of and parallel to
the East Pipeline. Competition between common carrier pipelines is primarily
based upon transportation charges, quality of customer service and proximity to
end users. KPL, in its capacity as General Partner of the Partnership, believes
that high capital costs, tariff regulation, environmental considerations and
problems in acquiring rights-of-way make it unlikely that other competing
pipeline systems comparable in size and scope to the Pipelines will be built in
the near future, provided that the pipeline has available capacity to satisfy
demand and its tariffs remain at reasonable levels. Further, while pipeline
transportation systems are generally the lowest cost method for intermediate and
long-haul overland movement of refined petroleum products, trucks may also
competitively deliver products in some of the areas served by the Pipelines.
However, as trucking costs render that mode of transportation uncompetitive for
longer hauls or larger volumes, KPL, in its capacity as General Partner of the
Partnership, does not believe that, over the long term, trucks are effective
competition to the Pipelines' long-haul volumes.
Products
The mix of refined petroleum products delivered by the Pipelines varies
seasonally, with gasoline demand peaking in early summer, diesel fuel demand
peaking in late summer and propane demand higher in the fall. In addition,
weather conditions in the geographic areas served by the Pipelines affect the
demand for and the mix of the refined petroleum products delivered through the
Pipelines, although any such impact on the volumes shipped has historically been
short-term. Most of the refined petroleum products delivered through the East
Pipeline are ultimately used in agricultural operations, including fuel for farm
equipment, irrigation systems, crop-drying facilities and trucks used to
transport crops to a variety of destinations; while the West Pipeline's products
are generally delivered to a more urban and commercial marketplace. The
agricultural sector served by the East Pipeline is also affected by governmental
policy and crop prices. Further, the Pipelines are dependent upon adequate
levels of production of refined petroleum products by refineries that are
connected to the Pipeline, which refineries are, in turn, dependent upon
adequate supplies of suitable grades of crude oil. KPL, in its capacity as
General Partner of the Partnership, believes that, in the event that operations
at any one refinery were discontinued (and assuming unchanged demand in the
markets served by the Pipelines), the effects thereof would be short-term in
nature and the Partnership's business would not be materially adversely affected
over the long term. However, a substantial reduction of output by several
refineries as a group could affect the Pipelines' operations to the extent that
a greater percentage of the supply would have to come from refineries outside
the Pipelines' connecting access pipelines.
Tariffs
Substantially all of the Pipelines' operations constitute common
carrier activities that are subject to Federal or state tariff regulation. Such
common carrier activities are those under which transportation services through
the pipeline are available at published tariffs, as filed with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") or the applicable state regulatory
authority, to any shipper of refined petroleum products who requests such
services, provided that each refined petroleum product for which transportation
is requested satisfies the conditions, requirements and specifications for
transportation.
Terminal Storage Operations
Facilities
The terminaling business, a significant portion of which was acquired
by the Partnership in 1993, has a proven track record of more than 40 years of
quality service and experience in the operation of specialty liquids terminal
storage facilities. ST's terminal facilities provide throughput and storage on a
fee basis for a wide variety of products from petroleum products to specialty
chemicals and edible and other liquids. ST's 34 facilities offer storage
capacity ranging from 40,000 to 5.5 million barrels, comprised of two to 162
tanks per facility. In February 1999, ST acquired six terminals in the United
Kingdom, having aggregate capacity of approximately 5.4 million Bbls capacity in
307 tanks. As of December 31, 1999, ST's six largest facilities were located at
Piney Point, Maryland (5,403,000 Bbls capacity; 28 tanks); Linden, New Jersey
(3,884,000 Bbls capacity; 22 tanks); Eastham, England (2,185,000 Bbls capacity;
162 tanks); Jacksonville, Florida (2,066,000 Bbls capacity; 30 tanks); Texas
City, Texas (2,002,000 Bbls capacity; 124 tanks); and Grays, England (1,945,000
Bbls capacity; 53 tanks). The Linden, New Jersey terminal was acquired as a part
of a November 1998 joint venture transaction with Northville Industries Corp. in
which ST acquired a 50% interest in, and the management of, the facility. In
addition to the foregoing, the other ST facilities are located in Alabama (2),
Arizona, California, the District of Columbia (2), Florida (2), Georgia (6),
Illinois (3), Indiana, Kansas, Maryland (2), Minnesota, New Mexico, Oklahoma,
Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia (2), Washington, Wisconsin and the United Kingdom
(4). These terminals provide ST with a geographically diverse base of customers
and revenue. ST's operational headquarters is located in Dallas, Texas.
The independent liquids terminaling industry is fragmented and includes
both large, well financed publicly-traded companies that own and/or operate many
terminal locations and small private companies that may own and/or operate only
a single terminal location. In addition to the terminals owned by independent
terminal operators, many major energy and chemical companies also own extensive
terminal facilities. Although such terminals often have the same capabilities as
those owned by independent operators, they generally do not provide terminaling
services to third parties. In many instances, major energy and chemical
companies that own storage facilities are also significant customers of
independent terminal operators when independent terminals have more cost
effective locations near key transportation links such as deep water ports.
Major energy and chemical companies also require independent terminal storage
when their captive storage facilities are inadequate, either because of size
constraints, the nature of the stored material or specialized handling
requirements. Independent terminal owners, such as ST, compete on the basis of
location, versatility of terminals, service and price. For example, a favorably
located terminal will have access to various means of cost-effective
transportation both to and from the terminal. Terminal versatility is a function
of the operator's ability to offer safe handling for a diverse group of products
having complex handling requirements. The service function typically provided by
the terminal includes, among other things, the safe storage of the product at
specified temperature, moisture and other conditions, as well as variety in the
method of loading and unloading of product at the terminal. Additionally,
another increasingly important service factor is the ability of a terminal
operator to offer product handling and storage that complies with applicable
environmental, safety and health regulations, among others.
Products
The variety of products that can be stored at ST's terminal storage
facilities is a significant part of what KPL, in its capacity as General Partner
of the Partnership, believes is its competitive advantage among similarly
situated organizations. ST's terminals provide storage capacity for such
products as petroleum products, specialty chemicals, asphalt, fertilizer,
herbicides, latex and caustic solutions, and edible liquids, including animal
and vegetable fats and oils. Further, the terminaling and pipeline
transportation of jet fuel for the U.S. Department of Defense is an important
part of its business. Eleven of ST's terminal sites are involved in the
terminaling or transport (via pipeline) of jet fuel for the Defense Department.
Two of these locations are presently without government business. Of the eleven
locations, five include pipelines that deliver jet fuel directly to nearby
military bases.
Safety, Environmental and Other Regulatory Matters
In addition to tariff regulation of the Partnership's pipeline
activities, certain operations of the Partnership are subject to Federal, state
and local laws and regulations relating to the construction, maintenance and
management of its facilities, the safety of its personnel and the protection of
the environment. Although KPL, in its capacity as General Partner of the
Partnership, believes that the operations of the Partnership are in general
compliance with applicable laws and regulations, risks of substantial costs and
liabilities are inherent in both pipeline and terminaling operations, and there
can be no assurance that significant costs and liabilities will not be incurred
by the Partnership. For example, contamination resulting from spills or releases
of refined petroleum products within the petroleum pipeline industry, or refined
petroleum or other products within the terminaling industry, are not unusual in
such industries. From time to time, the Partnership has experienced limited
contamination along the pipelines and at certain of its pipeline-related
terminal sites, resulting from spills or leakage of refined petroleum products.
In each instance, the appropriate regulatory authorities have been notified of
these events and appropriate remediation activities have either been completed
or are ongoing. In connection with the formation of the Partnership, the Company
agreed to bear the costs associated with environmental contamination relating to
the operations of the East Pipeline arising prior to October 3, 1989; however,
such costs have not been, and are not in the future anticipated to be, material.
Additionally, from time to time, the Partnership has experienced
limited contamination at certain of its current and former terminal storage
facilities, as a result of operations at or around these locations. Again, in
each instance, the appropriate regulatory authorities have been notified of
these events and appropriate remediation activities have either been completed,
are ongoing or are under investigation. In certain instances where other
unrelated companies may also have responsibility for the contamination of a
particular facility or area, the Partnership, through the appropriate operating
subsidiary, has entered into agreements (or is in the process of negotiating
such agreements) with such company or companies providing for the allocation of
the costs and/or responsibilities of remediation of such facilities or areas.
PRODUCT MARKETING SERVICES
In March 1998, Kaneb, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of KPL,
acquired a products marketing business. For over 40 years, this operation and
its predecessors have engaged in the business of acquiring quantities of motor
fuels and reselling them in smaller lots at truck racks located in terminal
storage facilities along pipelines primarily located throughout California,
Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Wisconsin and Wyoming. Kaneb's products
marketing subsidiary does not own any retail outlets, pipelines or terminals.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, the product marketing segment's revenues
and operating income were $212.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of
Operations".
Products and Services
The products include petroleum motor fuels such as various grades of
gasoline and diesel and gasoline blend stocks such as ethanol and natural
gasoline. These products are generally purchased in large batches in petroleum
pipelines or in large storage tanks and are distributed through an extensive
geographic area which includes the Great Lakes Region of primarily Illinois,
Indiana, Ohio and Wisconsin; the Rocky Mountain Region of primarily Colorado and
Wyoming; and the Far West Region of primarily California. The products are sold
at petroleum terminals into tank trucks. The petroleum terminals are not owned
by Kaneb's marketing subsidiary but are leased as needed.
Customers
The business is essentially a wholesaling business requiring both
favorable customer and supplier relationships. Customers of the products
marketing business are primarily independent retail distributors. These
"unbranded" customers often cannot obtain supplies from major ("branded") oil
companies or cannot obtain supplies from majors or others at competitive prices.
Suppliers to the products marketing business include major and large independent
oil companies and petroleum traders. The suppliers are attempting to increase
their volume or capture some of the independent retail sales which they could
not otherwise price to obtain without undercutting their branded customers.
The products marketing industry is highly competitive with customers
very sensitive to pricing. Kaneb's products marketing business must position
itself as a low-cost supplier to its customers to be successful. Changing
product prices can cause some volatility in earnings. Kaneb's products marketing
business minimizes pricing risk through high inventory turnover (on average
approximately 10 days of inventory on hand) and product exchange liabilities.
Product exchange liabilities provide a partial hedge to the inventory position.
Kaneb's product marketing business does not currently engage in commodity
futures trading to hedge pricing volatility, but may do so in the future in a
limited fashion if increases in volumes make it a prudent measure.
INFORMATION SERVICES
Kaneb Information Services, Inc., together with its wholly owned
subsidiaries (collectively, "KIS"), provides a variety of information services
and products to the U.S. Government and private customers. For the year ended
December 31, 1999 the information services segment's revenues and operating
income were $37.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations". A
substantial portion of the revenues of this business segment are attributable to
contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government. KIS manages its businesses from
its headquarters in Richardson, Texas, and maintains offices in Chantilly and
McLean, Virginia, and Frederick, Maryland, to more effectively serve its
Washington, DC-based government clients and to promote awareness of its
services, products and capabilities.
Computer Networking
KIS provides consulting services and specially configured computers and
related networking equipment to agencies of the Department of Justice through
teaming agreements on a contract basis. The contract is renewable annually by
the Department of Justice. Under this contract, KIS also provides installation
and replacement services, training and software and hardware security systems to
the agencies. Hardware components provided under this contract are fully
interchangeable, permitting routine upgrades and swaps with minimal
compatibility problems.
Telemedicine Services
KIS provides consulting services in support of the purchase and
implementation of digital imaging systems, known as Picture Archival and
Communication Systems ("PACS"), by medical facilities. PACS are used in
connection with digitally recorded images, such as magnetic resonance imaging,
computer tomography scans, ultrasounds and digital x-rays, among others. KIS
provides technical support at every stage of the implementation of a PACS by a
medical facility, including planning and feasibility studies, workflow design,
specification development, procurement assistance, on-site technical supervision
of PACS installers, quality assurance and acceptance testing. KIS also assists
the medical facilities with warranty and service issues that may arise with the
manufacturer of the PACS. KIS personnel who perform the consulting services are
highly trained electrical, biomedical, and clinical engineers.
KIS also performs work for PACS manufacturers, such as General Electric
and IBM, in connection with the sale and installation of PACS, and for end users
of the systems. KIS' principal customer in the PACS consulting field has been
the Department of Defense, with whom KIS has contracted to provide consulting
services for eleven hospitals, with Brooke Army Medical Center, San Antonio,
Texas, as the hub. KIS also provides these services to other military hospitals
and to major teaching hospitals. KIS is also marketing wearable digitized
medical records ("digital dog tags") for the military and other government and
private sector applications. KIS is exploring the potential for expanding its
services in this area to teledermatology, telecardiology and home monitoring
applications.
Ellsworth Acquisition
In March 1999, KIS acquired Ellsworth Associates, Inc., an information
services company based in McLean, Virginia. Through Ellsworth, KIS provides web
site development and maintenance, network engineering, application development
(including e-commerce applications), project planning and development, needs and
assessments planning, programmatic analysis and research, and statistical work,
primarily for the Department of Health and Human Resources and the Department of
Commerce. KIS also maintains the database for the Head Start program of the
Department of Health and Human Resources.
KIS generally contracts for these services on renewable annual
contacts, with pricing based principally upon its GSA schedule. In marketing its
services in this area, KIS competes with a number of other government
contractors, primarily on the basis of expertise and knowledge about the needs
of its customers. KIS believes that the expertise it has developed in child
welfare related database systems creates opportunities to market its services to
state agencies which provide information to the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services.
Financial Industry Software and Services
KIS licenses proprietary PC-based software and provides services to
community banks for internal accounting; tracking, monitoring, analyzing and
managing loans and deposits; and other banking functions. KIS also licenses a
proprietary professional lending system to loan companies and an automated
contingency planning system for disaster recovery to commercial banks.
Collateral Insurance Monitoring
KIS monitors, on behalf of its customers, the status of insurance
coverage on automobiles pledged as loan collateral and flood insurance on homes.
It coordinates communications among financial institutions, insurance companies
and borrowers regarding the status of insurance coverage protecting the
financial institution's loan collateral. KIS uses its own proprietary software
to cross-collate databases and generate reports for lenders and insurance
companies, charging monthly fees to its customers. Some customers also pay fees
to KIS in instances where KIS's services result in the issuance of a
forced-placement insurance policy to replace lapsed coverage. KIS believes that
the market for these services is fragmented among a number of small competitors,
and that competition in this market is primarily based upon the quality of the
service provided. KIS believes that its expertise in this field may have other
applications, including cross-collating and reporting on FEMA-required flood
insurance and delinquent child support payers.
INDUSTRIAL SERVICES
The Furmanite group of companies offers a variety of specialized
industrial services to an international base of flow-process industry clients.
Founded in Virginia Beach, Virginia in the 1920s as a manufacturer of leak
sealing kits, Furmanite has evolved into an international service company. In
the 1960s, Furmanite expanded within the United Kingdom, primarily through its
leak sealing products and services, and, during the 1970's and 1980's, grew
through geographic expansion and the addition of new techniques, processes and
services to become one of the largest leak sealing and on-site machining
companies in the world. Kaneb acquired Furmanite in 1991 to diversify the
Company's operations and take advantage of international growth opportunities.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, Furmanite's revenues and operating income
were approximately $98.1 million and $3.6 million (before $1.8 million in
severance costs), respectively. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
Products and Services
Furmanite is an industry leader in providing on-line repairs of leaks
("leak sealing") in valves, pipes and other components of piping systems and
related equipment typically used in flow-process industries. See "Customers and
Markets." Other services provided by Furmanite include on-site machining,
bolting and valve testing and repair on such systems and equipment. These
services tend to complement Furmanite's leak sealing service, since these
"turnaround services" are usually performed while a plant or piping system is
off-line. In addition, Furmanite provides hot tapping, fugitive emissions
monitoring, passive fire protection, concrete repair and heat exchanger repair.
Furmanite also performs diagnostic services on valves and motors by, among other
methods, utilizing its patented Trevitest(R) system and employing proprietary
diagnostic equipment under license from Framatome Technologies. In performing
these services, Furmanite technicians generally work at the customer's location,
frequently responding on an emergency basis. Over its history, Furmanite has
established a reputation for delivering quality service and helping its
customers avoid or delay costly plant or equipment shutdowns. For each of the
years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, underpressure services
represented approximately 40%, 38% and 35%, respectively, of Furmanite's
revenues, while turnaround services accounted for approximately 45%, 46% and
45%, respectively, and product sales and other industrial services represented
approximately 15%, 16% and 20%, respectively, of Furmanite's revenues for each
of such years.
Furmanite's on-line, underpressure leak sealing services are performed
on a variety of flow-process industry machinery, often in difficult situations.
Many of Furmanite's techniques and materials are proprietary and/or patented
and, the Company believes, provide Furmanite with a competitive advantage over
other organizations that provide similar services. Furmanite's skilled
technicians work with equipment in a manner designed to enhance safety and
efficiency in temperature environments ranging from cryogenic to 1,400 degrees
Fahrenheit and pressure environments ranging from vacuum to 5,000 pounds per
square inch. In many circumstances, Furmanite personnel are called upon to
custom-design tools, equipment or other materials in order to effect the
necessary repairs. These efforts are supported by an internal quality control
group that works together with the on-site technicians in crafting these
materials.
Customers and Markets
Furmanite's customer base spans a broad industry spectrum, which
includes petroleum refineries, chemical plants, offshore energy production
platforms, steel mills, power generation and other flow-process industries in
more than 25 countries. Over 80% of Furmanite's revenues are derived from fossil
and nuclear fuel power generation companies, petroleum refiners and chemical
producers, while other significant markets include offshore oil producers and
steel manufacturers. As the worldwide industrial infrastructure continues to
age, additional repair and maintenance expenditures are expected to be required
for the specialized services provided by Furmanite and similarly situated
organizations. Other factors that may influence the markets served by Furmanite
include regulations governing construction of industrial plants, safety and
environmental compliance requirements, and fulfillment of specialized services
through the increased use of outsourcing, rather than an organization's in-house
staff.
Furmanite serves its customers from its Houston, Texas worldwide
headquarters and maintains a strong presence in the United Kingdom, continental
Europe and the Asia-Pacific. Furmanite currently operates North American offices
in the United States in Baton Rouge, Beaumont, Charlotte, Chicago, Houston,
Merrillville, Cherryhill and Salt Lake City. Furmanite's worldwide strength is
further supported by offices currently located in Australia (6 offices),
Belgium, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Malaysia, the Netherlands, New
Zealand, Norway, Singapore and the United Kingdom (6 locations) and by licensee,
agency and/or minority ownership interest arrangements in Argentina, Brazil,
Chile, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Egypt, Finland, Hungary, India,
Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Kuwait, Macedonia, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Saudi
Arabia, Slovak Republic, Korea, Sweden, Thailand, Trinidad, Ukraine, the United
Arab Emirates and Venezuela. Sales by major geographic region for 1999 were 30%
for the United States, 59% for Europe and 11% for Asia-Pacific. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and Note 11 to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Furmanite's underpressure leak sealing and other specialty field
services are marketed primarily through direct sales calls on customers by
salesmen and technicians based at Furmanite's various operating locations, which
are situated to facilitate timely customer response, 24 hours a day, seven days
a week. Customers are usually billed on a time and materials basis for services
typically performed pursuant to either job quotation sheets or purchase orders
issued under written customer agreements. Customer agreements are generally
short-term in duration and specify the range of and rates for the services to be
performed. Furmanite typically provides various limited warranties, depending
upon the services furnished, and, to date, has had no material warranty claims.
Furmanite competes on the basis of service, product performance and price,
generally on a localized basis with smaller companies and the in-house
maintenance departments of its customers or potential customers. In addition to
staff reductions and the trend toward outsourcing, Furmanite believes it
currently has an advantage over in-house maintenance departments because of the
ability of its multi-disciplined technicians to use Furmanite's proprietary and
patented techniques to perform quality repairs on a timely basis while customer
equipment remains in service.
Safety, Environmental and Other Regulatory Matters
Many aspects of Furmanite's operations are subject to governmental
regulation. National, state and local authorities of the U.S. and various
foreign countries have each adopted safety, environmental and other regulations
relating to the use of certain methods, practices and materials in connection
with the performance of Furmanite's services and which otherwise affect its
operations. Additionally, Furmanite participates, from time to time, with
various regulatory authorities in certain studies, reviews and inquiries of its
projects and/or operations. Further, because of its international presence,
Furmanite is subject to a number of political and economic uncertainties,
including taxation policies, labor practices, currency exchange rate
fluctuations, foreign exchange restrictions, local political conditions, import
and export limitations and expropriation of equipment. Except in certain
developing countries, where payment in a specified currency is required by
contract, Furmanite's services are paid, and its operations are typically
funded, in the currency of the particular country in which its business
activities are conducted.
Underpressure leak sealing and other Furmanite services are often
performed in emergency situations under circumstances involving exposure to high
temperatures and pressures, potential contact with caustic or toxic materials,
fire and explosion hazards and environmental contamination, any of which can
cause serious personal injury or property damage. Furmanite manages its
operating risks by providing its technicians with extensive on-going classroom
and field training and supervision, maintaining a technical support system
through its staff of professionally qualified specialists, establishing and
enforcing strict safety and competency requirements, standardizing procedures
and evaluating new materials and techniques for use in connection with its lines
of service. Furmanite also maintains insurance coverage for certain risks,
although there is no assurance that insurance coverage will continue to be
available at rates considered reasonable or that the insurance will be adequate
to protect the Company against liability and loss of revenues resulting from the
consequences of a significant accident.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS
Many of Kaneb's operations are subject to national, state and local
laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment. Although Kaneb
believes that its operations are in general compliance with applicable
environmental regulation, risks of additional costs and liabilities are inherent
in its operations, and there can be no assurance that significant costs and
liabilities will not be incurred by the Company. Moreover, it is possible that
other developments, such as increasingly stringent environmental laws,
regulations, enforcement policies thereunder, and claims for damages to property
or persons resulting from the operations of the Company could result in
substantial costs and liabilities.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 1999, Kaneb and its subsidiaries employed 1,740
persons, of which a total of 618 persons were employed by KPL, its pipeline and
terminaling subsidiaries and subsidiaries of KPP; 17 were employed by Martin Oil
Corporation; 190 were employed by the KIS group of companies; and, 886 persons
were employed by the Furmanite group of companies. The Partnership itself has no
employees, as the business and operations of the KPP are conducted by KPL, the
General Partner of KPP and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kaneb. As of December
31, 1999, approximately 196 of the persons employed by KPL were subject to
representation by unions for collective bargaining purposes; however, only 85
persons employed at four of KPL's terminal unit locations were subject to
collective bargaining or similar contracts at that date. Union contracts
regarding conditions of employment for 17, 20, 14 and 34 employees are in effect
through November 1, 2000, June 30, 2001, February 28, 2002 and June 29, 2002,
respectively. Additionally, as of December 31, 1999, approximately 275 of the
persons employed by Furmanite were subject to representation by unions or other
similar associations for collective bargaining or other similar purposes;
however, there were no significant collective bargaining or other similar
contracts covering the Furmanite employees in effect at that date. All such
contracts are subject to automatic renewal for successive one year periods
unless either party provides written notice in a timely manner to terminate or
modify such agreement.
Item 2. Properties
The properties owned or utilized by Kaneb and its subsidiaries are
generally described in Item 1 of this Report. Additional information concerning
the obligations of Kaneb and its subsidiaries for lease and rental commitments
is presented under the caption "Commitments and Contingencies" in Note 10 to the
Company's consolidated financial statements. Such descriptions and information
are hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.
Kaneb's corporate headquarters is located in an office building in
Richardson, Texas, pursuant to a lease agreement that expires in 2002, subject
to a five-year renewal option. The facilities used in the operations of the
Company's subsidiaries, other than the Partnership, are generally held under
lease agreements having various expiration dates, rental rates and other terms,
except for three Furmanite properties located in the United Kingdom, which are
owned in fee. The properties used in the operations of the Pipelines are owned
by KPP, through its subsidiary entities, except for KPL's operational
headquarters, located in Wichita, Kansas, which is held under a lease that
expires in 2004. The majority of ST's facilities are owned, while the remainder,
including most of its terminal facilities located in port areas and its
operational headquarters, located in Dallas, Texas, are held pursuant to lease
agreements having various expiration dates, rental rates and other terms. For
additional information regarding the properties utilized in the operations of
the Partnership, reference is made to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the
Partnership.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
A subsidiary of the Company that is no longer actively conducting any
operations was notified in 1989 that it is a "potentially responsible party" in
connection with a governmental investigation relating to a waste disposal
facility which has been subject to remedial action as a location listed on the
Environmental Protection Agency's ("EPA") Superfund Federal Priority List
("Superfund"). Proceedings arising under Superfund typically involve numerous
waste generators and other waste transportation and disposal companies for each
identified facility and seek to allocate or recover costs associated with site
investigation and cleanup, which costs could be substantial. This proceeding
involves actions allegedly taken by a former operating subsidiary of the Company
at a time prior to the acquisition of such subsidiary by the Company. The
Company's subsidiary has been included within a de minimis group of waste
generators that are involved in this proceeding, who have been negotiating a
collective settlement of their liabilities with the EPA. However, the Company
has joined with others within this de minimis group who are each contesting
their respective liability. Proceedings in this matter are ongoing. The Company
has reviewed its potential exposure, if any, in connection with this matter,
giving consideration to the nature, accuracy and strength of evidence relating
to the Company's alleged relationship to the location, the amount and nature of
waste taken to the location, and the number, relationship and financial ability
of other named and unnamed "potentially responsible parties" at the location.
While the Company does not anticipate that the amount of expenditures from its
involvement in the above matter will have a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations or financial condition, the possibility remains that
technological, regulatory, enforcement or legal developments, the results of
environmental studies or other factors could materially alter this expectation
at any time.
The Company is Plaintiff in unrelated legal proceedings involving
malpractice issues with two professional service providers previously used by
the Company. The Company has appealed a lower court dismissal in one of the
proceedings and the other action is in the initial stages of discovery and
proceedings. Accordingly, at this time the Company is unable to reasonably
estimate potential recoveries, if any, under such actions.
Certain subsidiaries of KPP are defendants in a lawsuit filed in a
Texas state court in 1997 by Grace Energy Corporation ("Grace"), the entity from
which KPP acquired ST Services in 1993. The lawsuit involves environmental
response and remediation allegedly resulting from jet fuel leaks in the early
1970's from a pipeline. The pipeline, which connected a former Grace terminal
with Otis Air Force Base, was abandoned in 1973, and the connecting terminal was
sold to an unrelated entity in 1976. Grace alleges that it has incurred since
1996 expenses of approximately $3 million for response and remediation required
by the State of Massachusetts and that it expects to incur additional expenses
in the future. On January 20, 2000, the Massachusetts Department of
Environmental Protection notified KPP's subsidiary that it had reason to believe
that the subsidiary was also a Potentially Responsible Party. The subsidiary
replied to that letter denying any responsibility for the Massachusetts response
and/or remediation. Future expenses could potentially include claims by the
United States Government, as described below. Grace alleges that subsidiaries of
KPP acquired the abandoned pipeline, as part of the acquisition of ST Services
in 1993, and assumed responsibility for environmental damages caused by the jet
fuel leaks from the pipeline. Grace is seeking a ruling that these subsidiaries
are responsible for all present and future remediation expenses for these leaks
and that Grace has no obligation to indemnify these subsidiaries for these
expenses. The case is set for trial in May 2000.
The consistent position of KPP's subsidiaries is that they did not
acquire the abandoned pipeline as part of the 1993 ST transaction and did not
assume any responsibility for the environmental damage. In an order granting
partial summary judgment, the trial judge has ruled that the pipeline was an
asset of the company acquired by the subsidiary. The subsidiaries are continuing
with their defense that the pipeline had been abandoned prior to the acquisition
of ST Services and could not have been included in the assets they acquired. The
defendants have also counter-claimed against Grace for fraud and mutual mistake,
among other defenses. If they are successful at trial with their defenses and/or
counterclaims, the judge's partial summary judgment order will be moot. The
defendants also believe they have certain rights to indemnification from Grace
under the acquisition agreement with Grace. These rights include claims against
Grace for breaches of numerous representations in the agreement including the
environmental representations. The acquisition agreement includes Grace's
agreement to indemnify the subsidiaries against 60% of post-closing
environmental remediation costs, subject to a maximum indemnity payment of $10
million.
The Otis Air Force Base is a part of the Massachusetts Military
Reservation ("MMR"), which has been declared a Superfund Site pursuant to the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act. The MMR
Site contains nine groundwater contamination plumes, two of which are allegedly
associated with the pipeline, and various other waste management areas of
concern, such as landfills. The United States Department of Defense and the
United States Coast Guard, pursuant to a Federal Facilities Agreement, has been
responding to the Government remediation demand for most of the contamination
problems at the MMR Site. Grace and others have also received and responded to
formal inquiries from the United States Government in connection with the
environmental damages allegedly resulting from the jet fuel leaks. KPP's
subsidiaries have voluntarily responded to an invitation from the Government to
provide information indicating that they do not own the pipeline. In connection
with a court-ordered mediation between Grace and the subsidiaries, the
Government advised the parties in April 1999 that it has identified the two
spill areas that it believes to be related to the pipeline that is the subject
of the Grace suit. The Government advised the parties that it believes it has
incurred costs of approximately $34 million, and expects in the future to incur
costs of approximately $55 million, for remediation of one of the spill areas.
This amount was not intended to be a final accounting of costs or to include all
categories of costs. The Government also advised the parties that it could not
at that time allocate its costs attributable to the second spill area. KPP
believes that the ultimate cost of the remediation, while substantial, will be
considerably less than the Government has indicated. KPP also believes that,
even if the lawsuit determines that the subsidiary is the owner of the pipeline,
the defendants have defenses to any claim of the Government. Any claims by the
Government could be material in amount and, if made and ultimately sustained
against KPP's subsidiaries, could adversely affect KPP's ability to pay cash
distributions to its unitholders, including the Company.
The Company has other contingent liabilities resulting from litigation,
claims and commitments incident to the ordinary course of business. Management
believes, based on the advice of counsel, that the ultimate resolution of such
contingencies will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial
position or results of operations of the Company.

Consolidated net income .................................. $ 63.8 $ 13.6 $ 10.6
Consolidated capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions $ 17.3 $ 12.3 $ 13.0
For the year ended December 31, 1999, consolidated revenues increased
$129.9 million, or 35%, when compared to 1998, largely from a $98.1 million
increase in revenues from the products marketing business acquired in late March
of 1998. In addition, revenues from the pipeline and terminaling operations and
the information services business increased by $32.2 million and $16.7 million,
respectively, in 1999, partially offset by a 1999 decrease in industrial
services revenues of $17.0 million. Consolidated operating income in 1999
increased by $6.9 million, or 11%, with significant improvements achieved in the
pipeline and terminaling and the information services businesses.
Consolidated income before the benefit of recognizing tax loss
carryforwards (change in valuation allowance) and the gain on issuance of units
by KPP, net of deferred income taxes, increased $2.7 million, or 20%, for the
year ended December 31, 1999, compared to the same 1998 period. 1999
consolidated net income includes a gain of $10.4 million, net of deferred income
taxes, resulting from the issuance of units by KPP (See "Liquidity and Capital
Resources") and $37.1 million in expected benefits from prior years' tax losses
(change in valuation allowance) that are available to offset future taxable
income (See "Income Taxes"). Consolidated net income, including these items, was
$63.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1999.
For the year ended December 31, 1998, consolidated revenues increased
$139.0 million, or 59%, when compared to 1997, largely from the $114.2 million
in revenues generated by the products marketing business. In addition, revenues
from the pipeline and terminaling business, the information services business
and industrial services business increased by $4.6 million, $13.1 million and
$6.9 million, respectively, in 1998. Consolidated operating income in 1998
increased by $2.6 million, or 5%, with the most significant improvements in the
pipeline and terminaling and the information services businesses. Consolidated
net income for the year ended December 31, 1998 increased $3.0 million, or 28%,
compared to the year ended December 31, 1997.
Pipeline and Terminaling Services
This business segment includes the operations of Kaneb Pipe Line
Partners, L.P. ("KPP"). KPP provides transportation services of refined
petroleum products through a pipeline system that extends through the Midwestern
states and provides terminaling and storage services for petroleum products,
specialty chemicals and other liquids. Kaneb operates, manages and controls the
pipeline and terminaling operations of KPP through its 2% general partner
interest and a 28% (as of December 31, 1999) limited partner interest in the
Partnership.

Capital expenditures,

======== ======== ========
For the year ended December 31, 1999, pipeline and terminaling revenues
increased by $32.2 million, or 26% compared to 1998, due to a $28 million
increase in terminaling revenues and a $4.2 million increase in pipeline
revenues. For the year ended December 31, 1998, pipeline and terminaling
revenues increased by $4.6 million, or 4%, compared to 1997, due to a $2.5
million increase in terminaling revenues and a $2.1 million increase in pipeline
revenues. The 1999 and 1998 increase in terminaling revenues is due to terminal
acquisitions and increased utilization of existing terminals due to favorable
market conditions, partially offset by a decrease in the overall average price
realized for storage. Average annual tankage utilized for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 aggregated 22.6 million barrels, 15.2 million
barrels and 12.4 million barrels, respectively. The 1999 and 1998 increases in
average annual tankage utilized resulted from the acquisitions and increased
storage at KPP's largest petroleum storage facility. Average revenues per barrel
of tankage utilized for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 was
$4.00, $4.11 and $4.83, respectively. The decrease in 1999 and 1998 average
annual revenues per barrel of tankage utilized was due to the storage of a
larger proportionate volume of petroleum products, which are historically at
lower per barrel rates than specialty chemicals. The 1999 and 1998 increases in
pipeline revenues are due to increases in volumes shipped, primarily on the East
Pipeline. Barrel miles totaled 18.4 billion, 17.0 billion and 16.1 billion for
the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Pipeline and terminaling operating income increased by $9.2 million, or
17% in 1999, compared to 1998, due to a $7.0 million increase in terminaling
operating income and a $2.2 million increase in pipeline operating income. For
the year ended December 31, 1998, pipeline and terminaling operating income
increased by $1.7 million, or 3%, compared to 1997, due to improved pipeline
operating income. The increase in 1999 terminaling operating income is the
result of the acquisitions and the increase in tank utilization. The 1999 and
1998 improvement in pipeline operating income is due to increases in volumes
shipped.
The interest of outside non-controlling partners in KPP's net income
was $33.5 million, $29.2 million and $27.7 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Distributions paid to the outside non-controlling unitholders of
KPP aggregated approximately $35.4 million, $28.5 million and $26.9 million in
1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Capital expenditures relate to the maintenance of existing operations.
Routine capital expenditures for 2000 are currently estimated to be between $12
million and $15 million.
On February 1, 1999, KPP acquired six terminals in the United Kingdom
from GATX Terminal Limited for (pound)22.6 million (approximately $37.2 million)
plus transaction costs and the assumption of certain liabilities. The
acquisition of the six locations, which have an aggregate tankage capacity of
5.4 million barrels, was financed by term loans from a bank. $13.3 million of
the term loans were repaid in July 1999 with the proceeds from KPP's public
offering. (See "Liquidity and Capital Resources") Three of the terminals,
handling petroleum products, chemicals and molten sulfur, respectively, operate
in England. The remaining three facilities, two in Scotland and one in Northern
Ireland, are primarily petroleum terminals. All six terminals are served by
deepwater marine docks.
On October 30, 1998, KPP entered into acquisition and joint venture
agreements with Northville Industries Corp. ("Northville") to acquire and manage
the former Northville terminal located in Linden, New Jersey. Under the
agreements, KPP acquired a 50% interest in the newly-formed ST Linden Terminal
LLC for $20.5 million plus transaction costs. The petroleum storage facility,
which has capacity of 3.9 million barrels in 22 tanks, was funded with bank
financing which was paid off using a portion of the proceeds from KPP's public
unit offering in July 1999. (See "Liquidity and Capital Resources")
Product Marketing Services

On March 25, 1998, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kaneb acquired the
petroleum products marketing business for $1.5 million, plus the cost of
inventories. The Company's product marketing services segment consists of the
operations of that business since the acquisition date.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, revenues increased $98.1 million,
or 86%, and operating income increased by $0.6 million, or 67%, when compared to
1998, due to an increase in both sales volumes and sales price. Total gallons
sold increased to 348.6 million in 1999, compared to 221.8 million in 1998, due
to a combination of increasing the number of terminals through which products
are sold and increasing the volumes at existing locations. The average price
realized per gallon of product sold increased to $0.61 in 1999, compared to
$0.52 in 1998, but product price volatility reduced 1999 average gross profit
margins by 7% from 1998.
Information Services
Kaneb's information services business is conducted through a variety of
wholly-owned subsidiaries. The information services group provides network
design and installation services, database management and processing services,
specialized medical technology services, insurance tracking services, hardware
distribution and other related information technology services. The medical
services division provides systems integration and open architecture based
telemedicine solutions, including assessment and planning, installation
assistance, clinical systems integration, acceptance testing, and systems
maintenance and management of telemedicine applications.

acquired the capital stock of Ellsworth Associates, Inc. ("Ellsworth").
Ellsworth provides information technology services, including network, database
and systems design, and application programming, primarily to government
agencies.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, revenues increased $16.7 million,
or 81% and operating income increased $1.9 million, or 51%, when compared to
1998, primarily due to the Ellsworth acquisition and increased consulting
services and computer hardware sales provided to various national governmental
agencies and the private sector. For the year ended December 31, 1998, revenues
increased $13.1 million, or 172% and operating income increased $1.0 million, or
37% when compared to 1997, primarily from increased consulting services and
computer hardware sales provided to various national government agencies and the
private sector. Industrial Services
Kaneb's industrial services business is conducted through its Furmanite
group of wholly-owned subsidiaries. Furmanite provides specialized services,
including under pressure leak sealing, on-site machining, safety and relief
valve testing and repair, passive fire protection and fugitive emissions
inspections to the process and power industries worldwide.

For the year ended December 31, 1999, Furmanite's revenues decreased by
$17.0 million, or 15%, when compared to 1998, due to extremely weak industry
market conditions in the United States and Europe. In the United States,
revenues decreased by $5.7 million, or 16%, due to declines in turnaround and
other services resulting from the weak market conditions. In Europe, revenues
decreased by $10.8 million, or 16%, due to lower turnaround and other process
plant services, primarily in the United Kingdom and Germany, also the result of
weak market conditions in these regions. The 1999 decrease in Asia-Pacific
revenues is primarily due to declines in underpressure and other services.
For the year ended December 31, 1998, Furmanite's revenues increased by
$6.9 million, or 6%, when compared to 1997, due to overall increases in each of
the three geographical areas. In the United States, revenues increased by $1.8
million, or 5%, due primarily to improvements in on-site machining and leak
sealing services. In Europe, revenues increased by $1.7 million, or 3%, due to
increases in leak sealing, passive fire protection and turnaround services. The
increase in Asia-Pacific revenues is primarily attributable to the Australian
operations, acquired effective July 1, 1997.
Overall, Furmanite's operating income, before severance and other
costs, decreased by $3.1 million, or 46%, in 1999, compared to 1998, due to the
extremely weak industry market conditions in the United States and Europe.
Severance and other costs resulted from resizing Furmanite's work force to the
current market conditions in these regions. As of December 31, 1999,
substantially all of such costs had been paid. Furmanite's 1998 operating income
decreased by $0.7 million, or 9%, compared to 1997, due primarily to lower
margin work performed in the United Kingdom as a result of a general economic
slowdown during the last half of 1998.
Capital expenditures are primarily related to field services equipment
and capital costs related to the implementation of new services. Capital
expenditures for 2000 are currently estimated to be $3 million to $5 million,
depending on the economic environment and the needs of the business.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 1999 includes the
recognition in the fourth quarter of $37.1 million in expected benefits from
prior years' tax losses (change in valuation allowance) that are available to
offset future taxable income. The Company reduced the valuation allowance as a
result of its reevaluation of the realizability of income tax benefits from
future operations. The Company considered positive evidence supported by recent
historical levels of taxable income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax
liabilities, tax planning strategies, revised estimates of future taxable income
growth, and expiration periods of NOLs ($67.4 million expires in 2002), among
other things, in making this evaluation and concluding that it is more likely
than not that the Company will realize the benefit of its net deferred tax
assets. Ultimate realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent upon, among
other factors, the Company's ability to generate sufficient taxable income
within the carryforward periods (2000 to 2007) and is subject to change
depending on the tax laws in effect in the years in which the carryforwards are
used. As a result of the 1999 recognition of expected future income tax
benefits, subsequent periods will reflect a full effective tax rate provision.
Additionally, the Company's income tax expense for the year ended December 31,
1999 includes benefits of $3.1 million related to favorable developments
pertaining to certain state and foreign income tax issues.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash provided by consolidated operating activities was $50.1 million,
$54.2 million and $55.1 million during the years 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. The decrease in 1999 and 1998, was due primarily to increases in
working capital requirements relating to increased sales volume levels in the
product marketing business acquired in March 1998.
At December 31, 1999, $17.9 million was outstanding under a credit
facility, as amended, that was originally obtained by a wholly-owned subsidiary
in conjunction with the acquisition of Furmanite. The credit facility, which is
without recourse to the parent company, is due 2001, bears interest at the
option of the borrower at variable rates based on either the LIBOR rate or the
prime rate plus a differential of up to 150 basis points and contains certain
financial and operational covenants with respect to the industrial services
group of companies.
KPP has a credit agreement with two banks that currently provides a $25
million revolving credit facility for working capital and other Partnership
purposes. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at variable rates
and are due and payable on January 31, 2001. The credit agreement, which is
without recourse to the Company, has a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum of the
unused credit facility. At December 31, 1999, $2.2 million was drawn under the
credit facility.
In January 1999, KPP entered into a credit agreement with a bank that
provides for the issuance of $39.2 million of term loans in connection with the
United Kingdom terminal acquisition and $5.0 million for general partnership
purposes. The term loans, which bear interest in varying amounts, are secured by
the capital stock of the subsidiaries that acquired the United Kingdom terminals
and by a mortgage on the East Pipeline, and are pari passu with the existing
mortgage notes and credit facility. The term loans, which are without recourse
to the Company, contain certain financial and operational covenants. $18.3
million of the term loans were repaid in July 1999 with a portion of the
proceeds from a public offering of KPP units. The remaining portion ($25.8
million) is due in January 2002.
In July 1999, KPP issued 2.25 million limited partnership units in a
public offering at $30.75 per unit, generating approximately $65.6 million in
net proceeds. A portion of the proceeds was used to repay in full KPP's $15.0
million promissory note, KPP's $25.0 million revolving credit facility and $18.3
million of KPP's term loans (including $13.3 million in term loans resulting
from the United Kingdom terminal acquisition). As a result of KPP issuing
additional units to unrelated parties, the Company's pro-rata share of the net
assets of KPP increased by $16.8 million. Accordingly, the Company recognized a
$16.8 million gain before deferred income taxes of $6.4 million.
In December 1995, Kaneb entered into an agreement with an international
bank that provides for a $15 million revolving credit facility through December
1, 2000 that bears interest at a variable rate at the Company's option based on
the LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points or at the prime rate in effect from time to
time with a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum of the unused credit facility. No
amounts were drawn under the credit facility at December 31, 1999, 1998 or 1997.
In March 1998, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a
credit agreement with a bank that, as amended, provides for a $15 million
revolving credit facility through March 2001. The credit facility bears interest
at variable rates, has a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on unutilized amounts
and contains certain financial and operational covenants. The credit facility,
which is without recourse to the Company, is secured by essentially all of the
tangible and intangible assets of the products marketing business and by 500,000
KPP limited partnership units held by a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
At December 31, 1999, $11.0 million was drawn on the facility.
Consolidated capital expenditures for 2000 have been budgeted at $15
million to $20 million, depending on the economic environment and the needs of
the business. Consolidated debt maturities are $2.5 million; $2.4 million;
$100.1 million (including $70.2 million of KPP debt); $54.9 million (including
$52.8 million of KPP debt); and $10.1 million (including $8.0 million of KPP
debt), respectively, for each of the five years ending December 31, 2004.
Capital expenditures (excluding acquisitions) in 2000 are expected to be funded
from existing cash and anticipated cash flows from operations.
Year 2000 Issue
As of the date of this Report, the Company has not experienced any
significant disruptions in its operations during the transition into the Year
2000 ("Y2K"). In the third quarter of 1999, the Company announced that it had
completed its assessment of Y2K risks and that it had formulated contingency
plans to mitigate potential adverse effects which might have arisen from
noncompliant systems or third parties who had not adequately addressed the Y2K
issue. To date, the Company has not incurred any significant costs related to
Y2K issues. The Company will continue to monitor its operations and systems and
address any date-related problems that may arise as the year progresses.
Item 7(a). Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from the
adverse changes in market rates and prices) to which the Company is exposed are
interest rates on the Company's debt and investment portfolios. The Company
centrally manages its debt and investment portfolios considering investment
opportunities and risks, tax consequences and overall financing strategies. The
Company's investment portfolio consists of cash equivalents; accordingly, the
carrying amounts approximate fair value. The Company's investments are not
material to the financial position or performance of the Company. Assuming
year-end 1999 variable rate debt and investment levels, a one percent increase
in interest rates would increase net interest expense and decrease interest of
outside non-controlling partners in KPP's net income by approximately $0.4
million and less than $0.1 million, respectively.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and

We have audited the 1999 and 1998 consolidated financial statements of Kaneb

Item 14(a)(2) on page 20. These consolidated financial statements and financial
statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements
and financial statement schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting

assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and its
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related 1999
and 1998 financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the 1999

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies are followed by Kaneb
Services, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries in the preparation of
its consolidated financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries and Kaneb Pipe Line Partners, L.P. ("KPP"). The
Company controls the operations of KPP through its 2% general partner
interest and 28% limited partner interest as of December 31, 1999. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in
consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company's policy is to invest cash in highly liquid investments with
original maturities of three months or less. Accordingly, uninvested cash
balances are kept at minimum levels. Such investments are valued at cost,
which approximates market, and are classified as cash equivalents. The
Company does not have any derivative financial instruments.
Inventories
Inventories consist primarily of finished goods of the industrial
services segment and petroleum products purchased for resale in the
products marketing business and are valued at the lower of cost or
market. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at original cost. Certain leases have
been capitalized and the leased assets have been included in property and
equipment. Additions of new equipment and major renewals and replacements
of existing equipment are capitalized. Repairs and minor replacements
that do not materially increase values or extend useful lives are
expensed.
Depreciation of property and equipment is provided on the straight-line
basis at rates based upon the expected useful lives of the various
classes of assets. The rates used for pipeline and certain storage
facilities, which are subject to regulation, are the same as those
promulgated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
The carrying value of property and equipment is periodically evaluated
using undiscounted future cash flows as the basis for determining if
impairment exists under the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of". To the
extent impairment is indicated to exist, an impairment loss will be
recognized under SFAS No. 121 based on fair value.
Revenue Recognition
Substantially all revenues are recognized when services to customers have
been rendered or when products have been delivered. Pipeline
transportation revenues are recognized upon receipt of the products into
the pipeline system.
Sales of Securities by Subsidiaries
The Company recognizes gains and losses in the statements of income
resulting from subsidiary sales of additional equity interests, including
KPP limited partnership units, to unrelated parties.
Earnings Per Share
The amount of earnings for the period applicable to each share of common
stock outstanding during the period ("Basic" earnings per share) and the
amount of earnings for the period applicable to each share of common
stock outstanding during the period and to each share that would have
been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for dilutive
potential common shares outstanding during the period ("Diluted" earnings
per share) have been presented in the consolidated statements of income.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company translates the balance sheets of its foreign subsidiaries
using year-end exchange rates and translates income statement amounts
using the average exchange rates in effect during the year. The gains and
losses resulting from the change in exchange rates from year to year have
been reported separately as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity. Gains and losses
resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the
statements of income.
Excess of Cost Over Fair Value of Net Assets of Acquired Businesses
The excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets of acquired
businesses is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of
40 years. Accumulated amortization was $16.3 million and $14.1 million at
December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
The Company periodically evaluates the propriety of the carrying amount
of the excess of cost over fair value of net assets of acquired
businesses, as well as the amortization period, to determine whether
current events or circumstances warrant adjustments to the carrying value
and/or revised estimates of useful lives. The Company believes that no
such impairment has occurred and that no reduction in estimated useful
lives is warranted.
Environmental
KPP environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are
expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an
existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute
to current or future revenue generation, are expensed. Liabilities are
recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are
probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Generally, the
timing of these accruals coincides with the completion of a feasibility
study or KPP's commitment to a formal plan of action.
Estimates
The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Change in Presentation
Certain prior year financial statement items have been reclassified to
conform with the 1999 presentation.
2. ASSET ACQUISITIONS
On March 25, 1998, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company acquired a
products marketing business for $1.5 million, plus the cost of product
inventories. The products marketing business provides wholesale motor
fuel marketing services throughout the Great Lakes and Rocky Mountain
regions, as well as California. The asset purchase agreement includes a
provision for an earn-out based on annual operating results of the
acquired business for a five-year period ending in March 2003. No amounts
were payable under the earn-out provision in 1999 or 1998. The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
On October 30, 1998, KPP entered into acquisition and joint venture
agreements with Northville Industries Corp. ("Northville") to acquire and
manage the former Northville terminal located in Linden, New Jersey.
Under the agreements, KPP acquired a 50% interest in the newly-formed ST
Linden Terminal LLC for $20.5 million plus transaction costs. The
investment is being accounted for by the equity method of accounting,
with the excess cost over net book value of the equity investment being
amortized over the life of the underlying assets. During 1998, KPP
acquired other terminals and pipelines for aggregate consideration of
$23.9 million.
On February 1, 1999, KPP acquired six terminals in the United Kingdom
from GATX Terminal Limited for (pound)22.6 million (approximately $37.2
million) plus transaction costs and the assumption of certain
liabilities. The acquisition, which was initially financed with term
loans from a bank, has been accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. $13.3 million of the term loans were repaid in July 1999 with
the proceeds from a public unit offering (see Note 3). The pro forma
effect of the acquisition was not material to the results of operations.
3. PUBLIC OFFERING OF KPP UNITS
In July 1999, KPP issued 2.25 million limited partnership units in a
public offering at $30.75 per unit, generating approximately $65.6
million in net proceeds. A portion of the proceeds was used to repay in
full KPP's $15.0 million promissory note, KPP's $25.0 million revolving
credit facility and $18.3 million of KPP's term loans (including $13.3
million in term loans resulting from the United Kingdom terminal
acquisition referred to in Note 2). As a result of KPP issuing additional
units to unrelated parties, the Company's pro-rata share of the net
assets of KPP increased by $16.8 million. Accordingly, the Company
recognized a $16.8 million gain before deferred income taxes of $6.4
million. This transaction reduced the Company's limited partner interest
in KPP from 31% to 28%.
4. INCOME TAXES
Income before income tax expense and interest of outside non-controlling
partners in KPP's net income is comprised of the following components:

At December 31, 1999, the Company had available domestic tax net
operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs"), which will expire, if unused, as
follows: $67,449,000 in 2002, $12,626,000 in 2003, $16,866,000 in 2005,
$17,508,000 in 2006 and $3,033,000 in 2007. Additionally, at December 31,
1999, the Company had investment tax credits aggregating $1,786,000,
which will expire, if unused, in 2000, that could be used to offset
current domestic income taxes, but only after all available NOLs are
utilized. The utilization of these carryforwards could be subject to
significant limitation in the event of a "change in ownership", as
defined in the tax laws, which might be caused by purchases or sales of
the Company's securities by persons or groups now or in the future having
5% or greater ownership of the Company's common stock.
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant
portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at
December 31, 1999 and 1998 are as follows:
December 31,
-------------------------------------
1999 1998
-------------- --------------
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carryforwards......................... $ 41,119,000 $ 45,521,000
Investment tax credit carryforwards...................... 1,786,000 3,957,000
Alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards............. 3,996,000 3,668,000
Accrued liabilities...................................... 2,328,000 3,593,000
Other.................................................... 2,266,000 1,806,000

Deferred tax liabilities:
Plant and equipment, principally due to differences

-------------- --------------
Net deferred tax asset (liability)....................... $ 28,026,000 $ (1,675,000)
============== ==============
The Company maintains a valuation allowance to adjust the total deferred
tax assets to net realizable value in accordance with SFAS No. 109. In
the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company reduced the valuation allowance
by $37.1 million as a result of its reevaluation of the realizability of
income tax benefits from future operations. The Company considered
positive evidence supported by recent historical levels of taxable
income, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, tax planning
strategies, revised estimates of future taxable income growth, and
expiration periods of NOLs ($67.4 million expires in 2002), among other
things, in making this evaluation and concluding that it is more likely
than not that the Company will realize the benefit of its net deferred
tax assets. Ultimate realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent
upon, among other factors, the Company's ability to generate sufficient
taxable income within the carryforward periods (2000 to 2007) and is
subject to change depending on the tax laws in effect in the years in
which the carryforwards are used.
5. RETIREMENT PLANS
The Company has a defined contribution plan which covers substantially
all domestic employees and provides for varying levels of employer
matching. Company contributions to this plan were $1.4 million, $1.2
million and $1.1 million for 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
One of the Company's foreign subsidiaries has a defined benefit pension
plan covering substantially all of its United Kingdom employees (the
"U.K. Plan"). The benefit is based on the average of the employee's
salary for the last three years of employment. Generally, the employee
contributes 5% and the employer contributes up to 12% of pay. Plan assets
are primarily invested in unitized pension funds managed by United
Kingdom registered funds managers. The most recent valuation of the U.K.
Plan was performed as of October 31, 1999.
Net pension cost for the U.K. Plan included the following components:
Year Ended December 31,
--------------------------------------------------

Pipeline and Terminaling Services
In 1994, KPP, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a restated
credit agreement with a group of banks that, as subsequently amended,
provides for a $25 million revolving credit facility through January 31,
2001. The credit facility, which is without recourse to the Company,
bears interest at variable interest rates and has a commitment fee of
0.15% per annum of the unused credit facility. At December 31, 1999, $2.2
million was drawn under the credit facility.
Also in 1994, KPP, through another wholly-owned subsidiary, issued $33
million of first mortgage notes ("Notes") to a group of insurance
companies. The Notes bear interest at the rate of 8.05% per annum and are
due on December 22, 2001. In 1995, KPP, through a wholly-owned
subsidiary, issued $27 million of additional Notes due February 24, 2002
which bear interest at the rate of 8.37% per annum. The Notes and credit
facility, which are without recourse to the Company, are secured by a
mortgage on the East Pipeline and contain certain financial and
operational covenants.
In June 1996, KPP, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, issued $68 million
of new first mortgage notes bearing interest at rates ranging from 7.08%
to 7.98%. $35.0 million of these notes is due June 2001, $8.0 million is
due June 2003, $10.0 million is due June 2006 and $15.0 million is due
June 2016. The loan, which is without recourse to the Company, is
secured, pari passu with the existing Notes and credit facility, by a
mortgage on the East Pipeline.
In January 1999, KPP, through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, entered into
a credit agreement with a bank that provides for the issuance of $39.2
million of term loans in connection with the United Kingdom terminal
acquisition and $5.0 million for general partnership purposes. The term
loans, $18.3 million of which bore interest in varying amounts, are
secured by the capital stock of the subsidiaries that acquired the United
Kingdom terminals and by a mortgage on the East Pipeline and, are pari
passu with the existing mortgage notes and credit facility. The term
loans, which are without recourse to the Company, contain certain
financial and operational covenants. $18.3 million of the terms loans
were repaid in July 1999 with the proceeds from a public offering of KPP
units. The remaining portion ($25.8 million) with a fixed rate of 7.14%
is due in January 2002.
Product Marketing Services
In March 1998, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a
credit agreement with a bank that, as amended, provides for a $15 million
revolving credit facility through March 2001. The credit facility bears
interest at variable rates (7.24% at December 31, 1999), has a commitment
fee of 0.25% per annum on unutilized amounts and contains certain
financial and operational covenants. The credit facility, which is
without recourse to the Company, is secured by essentially all of the
tangible and intangible assets of the products marketing business and by
500,000 KPP limited partnership units held by a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company. At December 31, 1999, $11.0 million was drawn on the
facility.
Industrial Services
At December 31, 1999, $17.9 million was outstanding under a credit
facility, as amended, that was obtained by a wholly-owned subsidiary in
conjunction with the acquisition of Furmanite. The credit facility, which
is without recourse to the Company, is due 2001, bears interest at the
option of the borrower at variable rates (6.23% at December 31, 1999)
based on either the LIBOR rate or the prime rate plus a differential of
up to 150 basis points, has a commitment fee equal to one-half of one
percent per annum on unutilized amounts, contains certain financial and
operational covenants with respect to the industrial services group of
companies, and restricts the subsidiary from paying dividends to the
Company under certain circumstances. This credit facility is secured by
substantially all of the tangible assets of the industrial services
group.
Parent Company
The 8.75% subordinated debentures are convertible into shares of the
Company's common stock at a conversion price of $17.54 per share. The
Company has satisfied the sinking fund requirements on these subordinated
debentures through 2000.
In December 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with an
international bank that provides for a $15 million revolving credit
facility through December 1, 2000, that bears interest at a variable rate
at the Company's option based on the LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points or
at the prime rate in effect from time to time with a commitment fee of
0.5% per annum of the unused credit facility. The credit facility is
secured by 1.0 million of the Company's limited partnership units in KPP.
No amounts were drawn under the credit facility at December 31, 1999 or
1998.
Consolidated Maturities
Annual sinking fund requirements and debt maturities on consolidated
debt, including capital leases, are: $2.5 million; $2.4 million; $100.1
million (including $70.2 million of KPP debt); $54.9 million (including
$52.8 million of KPP debt); and $10.1 million (including $8.0 million of
KPP debt), respectively, for each of the five years ending December 31,
2004.

============= ============== ============== ================
Series A Preferred Stock
The Company has 567,950 shares of Cumulative Class A Adjustable Rate
Preferred Stock, Series A ("Series A Preferred") with a stated value of
$10 per share outstanding at December 31, 1999. Dividends accrue
quarterly at the applicable U.S. Treasury rate plus 2.00 percentage
points (200 basis points) ("Applicable Rate"), but will in no event be
less than 7.5% per annum or greater than 14% per annum. If dividends are
in arrears for two or more quarters, additional dividends accrue on all
dividends in arrears at a rate equal to the Applicable Rate plus 25 basis
points for each quarter dividends are in arrears (but not more than the
lesser of 14% per annum or 300 basis points more than the Applicable
Rate). If unpaid accrued dividends exist with respect to eight or more
quarters, the holders of the Series A Preferred may elect individually to
require the Company to redeem their shares at a price of $12 per share
plus dividends in arrears. No such arrearages existed as of December 31,
1999, 1998 and 1997. The Company, at its option, may redeem shares at any
time at a price of $12 per share (reduced ratably to $10 over 15 years
unless unpaid accrued dividends exist with respect to eight or more
quarters) plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereon.
Series B Preferred Stock
On April 9, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a
dividend distribution of one stock purchase right ("Right") for each
outstanding share of common stock to stockholders of record on April 19,
1998. These Rights are substantially similar to, and were issued in
replacement of, rights that expired on April 19, 1998, pursuant to the
Company's Stockholders Rights Plan. Pursuant to the replacement plan,
each Right entitles the holder, upon the occurrence of certain events, to
purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of Series B Junior
Participating Preferred Stock, no par value, at a price of $15, subject
to adjustment. The Rights will not separate from the common stock or
become exercisable until a person or group either acquires beneficial
ownership of 15% or more of the Company's common stock or commences a
tender or exchange offer that would result in ownership of 20% or more,
whichever occurs earlier. The Rights, which expire on April 19, 2008, are
redeemable in whole, but not in part, at the Company's option at any time
for a price of $0.01 per Right. At December 31, 1999 and 1998 there were
no Series B Preferred shares outstanding.
Series C Preferred Stock
In April 1991, the Company authorized 1,000 shares of Adjustable Rate
Cumulative Class A Preferred Stock, Series C ("Series C Preferred") which
have a preference value of $1.00 per share and are only entitled to a
dividend if the value of the Company's common stock increases. The Series
C Preferred, as an entire class, is entitled to an annual dividend
commencing January 1, 1992, equal to 1/2 of 1% (proportionately reduced
for authorized but unissued shares in the class) of the increase in the
average per share market value of the Company's common stock during the
year preceding payment of the dividend, over $4.79 (the average per share
market value of the Company's common stock during 1990) multiplied by the
average number of shares of common stock outstanding. The Series C
Preferred has mandatory redemption requirements in the event of certain
types of corporate reorganizations and may be redeemed at the option of
the Company during the first 60 days of each year commencing 1994. The
redemption price is the sum of (i) one divided by the average annual
yield of all issues of preferred stock listed on the New York Stock
Exchange during the calendar year preceding the date of the redemption
period times the average dividend for the two most recent years plus (ii)
a pro rata portion of the prior year's dividend based upon the number of
elapsed days in the year of redemption plus (iii) any accrued and unpaid
dividends. The Company may also repurchase the shares of a holder at such
redemption price during the first 60 days following the year in which the
holder first ceases to be an employee of the Company. A holder of the
Series C Preferred may, at his option, require the Company to redeem his
shares at 120% of such redemption price if the Company elects, within 10
days after the most recent dividend payment date, not to pay the accrued
dividend. Upon liquidation, holders of the Series C Preferred are
entitled to receive $1.00 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. As
of December 31, 1999, there were 500 shares of Series C Preferred issued
and outstanding to certain officers of the Company.
Series F Preferred Stock
In June 1997, the Company authorized and issued 1,000 shares of
Adjustable Rate Cumulative Class A Preferred Stock, Series F ("Series F
Preferred"), with a stated value of $1.00 per share to an officer of the
Company. The annual dividend for the entire class of Series F Preferred,
which accrues on January 1 of each year and is payable on April 1 of each
year, is calculated by multiplying (i) 1% of the annual improvement (but
not including amounts related to any gains or losses on the sale of any
KPP units nor any amounts related to any other gains or losses in excess
of $1 million on the sale of other capital assets) in the Company's
diluted earnings per share of common stock ("Common EPS"), by (ii) the
amount of issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock on
January 1, 1997. The calculation of the annual dividend for 1999 excludes
the gain on the issuance of units by KPP ($10.4 million net of deferred
taxes) as well as the benefit of recognizing tax loss carryforwards
($37.1 million reduction in the valuation allowance) and calculations of
the annual dividend for subsequent periods will be adjusted for any tax
provision required as a result of recognizing the benefit of the tax loss
carryforwards in 1999.
If the Common EPS increase for the five-year period ending December 31,
2001 has not exceeded 20% compounded annually, the series will be
redeemed for $1.00 per share on April 1, 2002. Otherwise, the series will
be redeemed on April 1, 2002 at a "Redemption Price" for the entire class
of the series equal to the average percentage increase in excess of 20%
in Common EPS for such period multiplied by (i) seventy-five hundredths
of 1% of the cumulative Common EPS for each calendar year ended for which
the series is outstanding, and (ii) the amount of issued and outstanding
shares of the Company's Common Stock on January 1, 1997.
Redemption of the series may be deferred at the Company's option until no
later than April 1, 2003 if the Common EPS increase for the 2001 calendar
year is less than 15%. The Series F Preferred may be redeemed at the
option of the holder at 120% of the Redemption Price if the Company fails
to pay an annual dividend within 10 days of the due date or in the event
of a change of control, or at the Redemption Price in the event of
certain corporate reorganizations or the authorization of a class of
preferred stock ranking higher in priority to the Series F Preferred.
Upon liquidation, holders of the Series F Preferred are entitled to
receive $1.00 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends.
Stock Compensation Plans
The Company has stock option plans and agreements for officers, directors
and key employees. The options granted under these plans and agreements
generally expire ten years from date of grant. All options were granted
at prices greater than or equal to the market price at the date of grant
or repricing. At December 31, 1999, options on 2,066,800 shares at prices
ranging from $1.63 to $5.63 were outstanding, of which 733,951 were
exercisable at prices ranging from $1.63 to $5.63.
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), the Company applies APB Opinion
25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans
and, accordingly, does not recognize compensation cost based on the fair
value of the options granted at grant date as prescribed by SFAS 123. The
Black-Scholes option pricing model has been used to estimate the value of
stock options issued and the assumptions in the calculations under such
model include stock price variance or volatility ranging from 11.74% to
11.88% based on weekly average variances of the stock for the five year
period preceding issuance, a risk-free rate of return ranging from 5.07%
to 6.07% based on the 30-year U.S. treasury bill rate for the five-year
expected life of the options, and no dividend yield. Using estimates
calculated by such option pricing model, pro forma net income, basic
earnings per share and diluted earnings per share would have been
$63,155,359, $1.99 and $1.98, respectively for the year ended December
31, 1999, as compared to the reported amounts of $63,772,000, $2.01 and
$1.94, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 1998, pro forma net
income, basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share would
have been $13,020,000, $0.39 and $0.39, respectively for the year ended
December 31, 1998, as compared to the reported amounts of $13,576,000,
$0.41 and $0.40, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 1997, pro
forma net income, basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share
would have been $10,327,000, $0.30 and $0.30, respectively, as compared
to the reported amounts of $10,643,000, $0.31 and $0.30, respectively.
The changes in stock options outstanding for the Company's plans for
1999, 1998 and 1997 were as follows:
Average Price

Outstanding at January 1, 1997 . 1,620,178 $ 2.60

==========
Deferred Stock Unit Plan
In 1996, the Company initiated a Deferred Stock Unit Plan (the "DSU
Plan"), pursuant to which key employees of the Company have, from time to
time, been given the opportunity to defer a portion of their
compensation, for a specified period toward the purchase of deferred
stock units ("DSUs"), an instrument designed to track the Company's
Common Stock. Under the plan, as amended in 1998, DSUs are purchased at a
value equal to the closing price of the Company's common stock on the day
by which the employee must elect (if they so desire) to participate in
the DSU Plan; which date is established by the Compensation Committee,
from time to time (the "Election Date"). During a vesting period of one
to three years following the Election Date, a participant's DSUs vest
only in an amount equal to the lesser of the compensation actually
deferred to date or the value (based upon the then-current closing price
of the Company's common stock) of the pro-rata portion (as of such date)
of the number of DSUs acquired. After the expiration of the vesting
period, which is typically the same length as the deferral period, the
DSUs become fully vested, but may only be distributed through the
issuance of a like number of shares of the Company's common stock on a
pre-selected date, which is irrevocably selected by the participant on
the Election Date and which is typically no earlier than the expiration
of the vesting period and no later than ten years after the Election
Date. DSU accounts are unfunded by the Company and do not bear interest.
Each person that elects to participate in the DSU Plan is awarded, under
the Company's 1994 Stock Incentive Plan, an option to purchase a number
of shares of the Company's common stock ranging from one-half to one and
one-half times (depending on the length of deferral) the number of DSUs
purchased by such person at 100% of the closing price of the Company's
common stock on the Election Date, which options become exercisable over
a specified period after the grant, according to a schedule determined by
the Compensation Committee.

Options to purchase 605,600, 189,523 and 15,000 shares of common stock at
weighted average prices of $4.90, $5.50 and $5.00, were outstanding at
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, but were not included in
the computation of diluted EPS because the options' exercise price was
greater than the average market price of the common stock. Additionally,
the Company's 8.75% convertible subordinated debentures were excluded
from the computation of diluted EPS because the effect of assumed
conversion is anti-dilutive.
10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company leases vehicles, office space, office equipment and other
items of personal property under leases expiring at various dates.
Management expects that, in the normal course of business, leases that
expire will be renewed or replaced by other leases. Total rent expense
under operating leases was $5.9 million for 1999, $3.8 million for 1998
and $3.5 million for 1997.
At December 31, 1999, minimum rental commitments under all capital leases
and operating leases for future years are as follows:

KPP makes quarterly distributions of 100% of its Available Cash (as
defined in the Partnership Agreement) to holders of limited partnership
units and the general partner. Available Cash consists generally of all
the cash receipts of the Partnership less all of its cash disbursements
and reserves. The assets of KPP, other than Available Cash, cannot be
distributed without a majority vote of the non-affiliated unitholders.
The operations of the Company are subject to Federal, state and local
laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment. Although
KPP believes that its operations are in general compliance with
applicable environmental regulation, risks of additional costs and
liabilities are inherent in its operations, and there can be no assurance
that significant costs and liabilities will not be incurred by KPP.
Moreover, it is possible that other developments, such as increasingly
stringent environmental laws, regulations, enforcement policies
thereunder, and claims for damages to property or persons resulting from
the operations of KPP, could result in substantial costs and liabilities
to KPP. KPP has recorded an undiscounted reserve in other liabilities for
environmental claims of $8.2 million, including $7.6 million related to
acquisitions of pipelines and terminals. During 1999 and 1998,
respectively, KPP incurred $0.9 million and $0.6 million of costs related
to such acquisition reserves and reduced the liability accordingly.
Certain subsidiaries of KPP are defendants in a lawsuit filed in a Texas
state court in 1997 by Grace Energy Corporation ("Grace"), the entity
from which KPP acquired ST Services in 1993. The lawsuit involves
environmental response and remediation allegedly resulting from jet fuel
leaks in the early 1970's from a pipeline. The pipeline, which connected
a former Grace terminal with Otis Air Force Base, was abandoned in 1973,
and the connecting terminal was sold to an unrelated entity in 1976.
Grace alleges that it has incurred since 1996 expenses of approximately
$3 million for response and remediation required by the State of
Massachusetts and that it expects to incur additional expenses in the
future. On January 20, 2000, the Massachusetts Department of
Environmental Protection notified KPP's subsidiary that it had reason to
believe that the subsidiary was also a Potentially Responsible Party. The
subsidiary replied to that letter denying any responsibility for the
Massachusetts response and/or remediation. Future expenses could
potentially include claims by the United States Government, as described
below. Grace alleges that subsidiaries of KPP acquired the abandoned
pipeline, as part of the acquisition of ST Services in 1993, and assumed
responsibility for environmental damages caused by the jet fuel leaks
from the pipeline. Grace is seeking a ruling that these subsidiaries are
responsible for all present and future remediation expenses for these
leaks and that Grace has no obligation to indemnify these subsidiaries
for these expenses. The case is set for trial in May 2000.
The consistent position of KPP's subsidiaries is that they did not
acquire the abandoned pipeline as part of the 1993 ST transaction and did
not assume any responsibility for the environmental damage. In an order
granting partial summary judgment, the trial judge has ruled that the
pipeline was an asset of the company acquired by the subsidiary. The
subsidiaries are continuing with their defense that the pipeline had been
abandoned prior to the acquisition of ST Services and could not have been
included in the assets they acquired. The defendants have also
counter-claimed against Grace for fraud and mutual mistake, among other
defenses. If they are successful at trial with their defenses and/or
counterclaims, the judge's partial summary judgment order will be moot.
The defendants also believe they have certain rights to indemnification
from Grace under the acquisition agreement with Grace. These rights
include claims against Grace for breaches of numerous representations in
the agreement including the environmental representations. The
acquisition agreement includes Grace's agreement to indemnify the
subsidiaries against 60% of post-closing environmental remediation costs,
subject to a maximum indemnity payment of $10 million.
The Otis Air Force Base is a part of the Massachusetts Military
Reservation ("MMR"), which has been declared a Superfund Site pursuant to
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act.
The MMR Site contains nine groundwater contamination plumes, two of which
are allegedly associated with the pipeline, and various other waste
management areas of concern, such as landfills. The United States
Department of Defense and the United States Coast Guard, pursuant to a
Federal Facilities Agreement, has been responding to the Government
remediation demand for most of the contamination problems at the MMR
Site. Grace and others have also received and responded to formal
inquiries from the United States Government in connection with the
environmental damages allegedly resulting from the jet fuel leaks. KPP's
subsidiaries have voluntarily responded to an invitation from the
Government to provide information indicating that they do not own the
pipeline. In connection with a court-ordered mediation between Grace and
the subsidiaries, the Government advised the parties in April 1999 that
it has identified the two spill areas that it believes to be related to
the pipeline that is the subject of the Grace suit. The Government
advised the parties that it believes it has incurred costs of
approximately $34 million, and expects in the future to incur costs of
approximately $55 million, for remediation of one of the spill areas.
This amount was not intended to be a final accounting of costs or to
include all categories of costs. The Government also advised the parties
that it could not at that time allocate its costs attributable to the
second spill area. KPP believes that the ultimate cost of the
remediation, while substantial, will be considerably less than the
Government has indicated. KPP also believes that, even if the lawsuit
determines that the subsidiary is the owner of the pipeline, the
defendants have defenses to any claim of the Government. Any claims by
the Government could be material in amount and, if made and ultimately
sustained against KPP's subsidiaries, could adversely affect KPP's
ability to pay cash distributions to its unitholders, including the
Company.
The Company has other contingent liabilities resulting from litigation,
claims and commitments incident to the ordinary course of business.
Management believes, based on the advice of counsel, that the ultimate
resolution of such contingencies will not have a materially adverse
effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
11. BUSINESS SEGMENT DATA
The Pipeline and Terminaling Segment includes the pipeline and
terminaling operations of KPP which consist of the transportation of
refined petroleum products in the Midwestern states as a common carrier
and the storage of petroleum products, specialty chemicals and other
liquids. The Company's Product Marketing Segment provides wholesale motor
fuel marketing services throughout the Midwest and Rocky Mountain
regions, as well as California. The Company's Information Services
Segment provides consulting services, hardware sales and other related
information management and processing services to governmental, insurance
and financial institutions. Additionally, the Company provides Industrial
Services to an international client base that includes refineries,
chemical plants, pipelines, offshore drilling and production platforms,
steel mills, food and drink processing facilities, power generation, and
other process industries. General Corporate includes compensation and
benefits paid to officers and employees of the Company, insurance
premiums, general and administrative costs, tax and financial reporting
costs, legal and audit fees not reasonably allocable to specific business
segments. Effective July 1, 1999, the responsibilities of certain
officers of the Industrial Services and Information Services segments
were expanded and their compensation and benefit costs (which totaled
approximately $0.2 million for the six month period ended December 31,
1999 for each of these segments) were transferred to General Corporate
and no longer considered by the Company in assessing the measurement of
such segment's results. In 1999, the Company managed the Product
Marketing Segment as a separate operating segment. Those operations were
previously combined with the Pipeline and Terminaling segment.
Information for 1998 has been recast to be consistent with the 1999
presentation.
The Company measures segment profit as operating income. Total assets are
those assets, including excess of cost over fair value of net assets of
acquired businesses, controlled by each reportable segment.

14. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The estimated fair value of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and
accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively
short period to maturity of these instruments. The estimated fair value
of all debt (excluding capital leases) as of December 31, 1999 and 1998
was approximately $219 million and $217 million as compared to the
carrying value of $213 million and $211 million, respectively. These fair
values were estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the
Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of
borrowing arrangements, when quoted market prices were not available. The
Company has not determined the fair value of its capital leases as it is
not practicable. The estimates presented above are not necessarily
indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market
exchange. The Company has no derivative financial instruments.
The Company does not believe that it has a significant concentration of
credit risk at December 31, 1999, as the Company's accounts receivable
are generated from four distinct business segments with customers located
throughout the United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
