NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

 

Note 1.    Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Organization

 

Global Partners LP (the “Partnership”) is a midstream logistics and marketing master limited partnership formed in March 2005 engaged in the purchasing, selling, storing and logistics of transporting petroleum and related products, including gasoline and gasoline blendstocks (such as ethanol), distillates (such as home heating oil, diesel and kerosene), residual oil, renewable fuels, crude oil and propane.  The Partnership owns, controls or has access to one of the largest terminal networks of refined petroleum products and renewable fuels in Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Northeast”).  The Partnership is one of the largest distributors of gasoline, distillates, residual oil and renewable fuels to wholesalers, retailers and commercial customers in the New England states and New York.  The Partnership is also one of the largest independent owners, suppliers and operators of gasoline stations and convenience stores with locations throughout the New England states and New York.  As of September 30, 2017, the Partnership had a portfolio of 1,435 owned, leased and/or supplied gasoline stations, including 234 directly operated convenience stores, in the Northeast, Maryland and Virginia.  The Partnership also receives revenue from convenience store sales, rental income and sundries.  In addition, the Partnership owns transload and storage terminals in North Dakota and Oregon that extend its origin-to-destination capabilities from the mid-continent region of the United States and Canada.

 

Global GP LLC, the Partnership’s general partner (the “General Partner”), manages the Partnership’s operations and activities and employs its officers and substantially all of its personnel, except for most of its gasoline station and convenience store employees who are employed by Global Montello Group Corp. (“GMG”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership.

 

The General Partner, which holds a 0.67% general partner interest in the Partnership, is owned by affiliates of the Slifka family.  As of September 30, 2017, affiliates of the General Partner, including its directors and executive officers and their affiliates, owned 7,403,798 common units, representing a 21.8% limited partner interest.

 

Recent Transactions

 

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement— On April 25, 2017, the Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement with aggregate commitments of $1.3 billion and a maturity date of April 30, 2020.  See Note 7 for additional information.

 

Sale of Natural Gas and Electricity Brokerage BusinessesOn February 1, 2017, the Partnership completed the sale of its natural gas marketing and electricity brokerage businesses for a purchase price of approximately $17.3 million, subject to customary closing adjustments.  Proceeds from the sale amounted to approximately $16.3 million, and the Partnership realized a gain on the sale of $14.2 million.  The sale of the natural gas marketing and electricity brokerage businesses reflects the Partnership’s ongoing program to monetize non-strategic assets not fundamental to its growth strategy.  Prior to the sale, the results of natural gas marketing and electricity brokerage businesses were included in the Commercial segment.  See Note 6.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and operating results for the interim periods.  The interim financial information, which has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and notes thereto contained in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The significant accounting policies described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of such Annual Report on Form 10-K are the same used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will be realized for the entire year ending December 31, 2017.  The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Noncontrolling Interest

 

The Partnership acquired a 60% interest in Basin Transload, LLC (“Basin Transload”) on February 1, 2013.  After evaluating Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, “Consolidations,” the Partnership concluded it is appropriate to consolidate the balance sheet and statements of operations of Basin Transload based on an evaluation of the outstanding voting interests.  Amounts pertaining to the noncontrolling ownership interest held by third parties in the financial position and operating results of the Partnership are reported as a noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations.

 

Concentration of Risk

 

Due to the nature of the Partnership’s business and its reliance, in part, on consumer travel and spending patterns, the Partnership may experience more demand for gasoline during the late spring and summer months than during the fall and winter.  Travel and recreational activities are typically higher in these months in the geographic areas in which the Partnership operates, increasing the demand for gasoline.  Therefore, the Partnership’s volumes in gasoline are typically higher in the second and third quarters of the calendar year.  As demand for some of the Partnership’s refined petroleum products, specifically home heating oil and residual oil for space heating purposes, is generally greater during the winter months, heating oil and residual oil volumes are generally higher during the first and fourth quarters of the calendar year.  These factors may result in fluctuations in the Partnership’s quarterly operating results.

Note 2.    Net Income (Loss) Per Limited Partner Unit

 

Under the Partnership’s partnership agreement, for any quarterly period, the incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) participate in net income only to the extent of the amount of cash distributions actually declared, thereby excluding the IDRs from participating in the Partnership’s undistributed net income or losses.  Accordingly, the Partnership’s undistributed net income or losses is assumed to be allocated to the common unitholders, or limited partners’ interest, and to the General Partner’s general partner interest.

 

Common units outstanding as reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 excluded 351,345 and 451,894 common units, respectively, held on behalf of the Partnership pursuant to its repurchase program (see Note 12).  The decrease in common units outstanding from December 31, 2016 is primarily due to a long-term incentive plan award that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.  These units are not deemed outstanding for purposes of calculating net income (loss) per limited partner unit (basic and diluted).
