INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

 

Jet Pep, Inc. and Affiliated Companies

Holly Pond, Alabama

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Jet Pep, Inc. and Affiliated Companies, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 and the related consolidated statement of income and stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

- 3 -

 


 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Jet Pep, Inc. and Affiliated Companies as of December 31, 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

JET-PEP, INC. AND AFFILIATED COMPANIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016

 

1.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES

 

Nature of Business

 

Organized in 1982, Jet-Pep, Inc. and Affiliated Companies (the Company) distributes gasoline products to customers, principally at convenience stores across Alabama.    

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Jet Pep, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Morris Oil Company, Inc. and Alabama Oil Company of Etowah County, Inc.  Alabama Oil Company of Etowah County, Inc. purchased 95% of the outstanding stock of National Petroleum Equipment, Inc. in 2000.  

 

The following companies are considered to be variable interest entities under generally accepted accounting principles and will be consolidated into the Company:  Bama Terminaling and Trading, LLC; Leader Transport, Inc.; Britton Oil Company, Inc.; Clean Fuels, Inc.; MYRT, Inc.; RDS Properties, Inc.; Tee’s Enterprises, Inc.; R&S Properties, LLC; Norris Properties, LLC; CSE Properties, LLC; C.R. LLC; J.R. LLC; K.E.N. LLC; S.C.N. LLC; RG Norris LLC; CKESS LLC; Robin LLC; and Stephanie LLC.  (the Affiliated Companies)

 

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Basis of Financial Statement Preparation

 

The consolidated financial statements are prepared under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced, and does not anticipate, any credit losses on these deposits.

 

Receivables

 

Accounts receivable primarily result from the sales of motor fuels to retail customers at retail sites from debit, credit, and fleet card transactions.   The collection of these receivables usually occurs within 3 to 5 business days after the sale has occurred.  

 

- 8 -

 


 

Inventories

 

Motor fuel inventory consists of gasoline, diesel fuel, and other petroleum products that is stored at the terminal and retail sites.  Fuel inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.   Supplies inventory consists of pumps, nozzles and other fuel station replacement parts and are valued at the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The recovery periods being used are:

 

Item

Estimated Useful Life

Equipment

3 to 7 years

Real estate improvements

15 years

 

Taxes Assessed by Governmental Authorities on Sales Revenue

 

The Company collects various taxes from customers and remits these amounts to applicable taxing authorities.  The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude these taxes from net sales and cost of goods sold.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting date and revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that if an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE), the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the VIE should be included in the financial statements of the enterprise.  These financial statements have been prepared under generally accepted accounting principles and the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the 18 affiliated companies have been consolidated into its financial statements.

 

- 9 -

 


 

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the applicable guidance.  This guidance requires entities to assess their tax positions for the likelihood that they would be overturned upon Internal Revenue Service (IRS) examination or upon examination by state taxing authorities.  In accordance with this guidance, the Company has assessed its tax positions and determined that it does not have any positions at December 31, 2016, that it would be unable to substantiate.  Under statute, the Company is subject to IRS and state taxing authority review for tax years 2014 through 2016.  The Company has filed tax returns through 2016.

 

Environmental Matters

 

Liabilities for future remediation costs are recorded when environmental assessments from governmental regulatory agencies and/or remedial efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Other than for assessments, the timing and magnitude of these accruals generally are based on the completion of investigations or other studies or a commitment to a formal plan of action. Environmental liabilities are based on best estimates of probable undiscounted future costs using currently available technology and applying current regulations, as well as our own internal environmental policies.  Environmental liabilities are difficult to assess and estimate due to uncertainties related to the magnitude of possible remediation, the timing of such remediation and the determination of our obligation in proportion to other parties. Such estimates are subject to change due to many factors, including the identification of new retail sites requiring remediation, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their interpretation, additional information related to the extent and nature of remediation efforts and potential improvements in remediation technologies.

 

The Company participates in the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) Trust Fund program, which covers costs for eligible investigative and correction action site activities.  No environmental liability has been recorded at December 31, 2016 due to the participation in this program.

 

Income Taxes

 

Jet-Pep, Inc. has elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed as an S corporation.  In lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholders of an S corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the company’s taxable income.  Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for Jet-Pep, Inc.  

 

National Petroleum Equipment, Inc. is a taxable corporation and files federal and state tax returns.   As such, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain a provision for income taxes.


- 10 -

 


 

Income Taxes - Continued

 

The Affiliated Companies are limited liability companies.  A provision for federal and state income taxes has not been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since any taxable income or loss of the Affiliated Companies is includable in the separate tax returns of the Affiliated Companies’ members.
