“Ethanol” means a high octane gasoline blend stock that is used to make various grades of gasoline.
“FCC,” or fluid catalytic cracking, means a refinery process that breaks down large complex hydrocarbon molecules into smaller more useful ones using a circulating bed of catalyst at relatively high temperatures.
“Hydrodesulfurization” means to remove sulfur and nitrogen compounds from oil or gas in the presence of hydrogen and a catalyst at relatively high temperatures.
“Hydrogen plant” means a refinery unit that converts natural gas and steam to high purity hydrogen, which is then used in the hydrodesulfurization, hydrocracking and isomerization processes.

In management’s opinion, these consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2018, the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and consolidated cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Although certain notes and other information required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted, we believe that the disclosures in these consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 that has been filed with the SEC.
Our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be realized for the year ending December 31, 2018.
Accounts Receivable: Our accounts receivable consist of amounts due from customers that are primarily companies in the petroleum industry. Credit is extended based on our evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, and in certain circumstances collateral, such as letters of credit or guarantees, is required. We reserve for doubtful accounts based on our historical loss experience as well as specific accounts identified as high risk, which historically have been minimal. Credit losses are charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts when an account is deemed uncollectible. Our allowance for doubtful accounts was $3.6 million at both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Inventories: Inventories related to our refining operations are stated at the lower of cost, using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method for crude oil and unfinished and finished refined products, or market. In periods of rapidly declining prices, LIFO inventories may have to be written down to market value due to the higher costs assigned to LIFO layers in prior periods. In addition, the use of the LIFO inventory method may result in increases or decreases to cost of sales in years that inventory volumes decline as the result of charging cost of sales with LIFO inventory costs generated in prior periods. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made at the end of each year based on the inventory levels at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.
Inventories of our Petro-Canada Lubricants business are stated at the lower of cost, using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or net realizable value.
Inventories consisting of process chemicals, materials and maintenance supplies and renewable identification numbers (“RINs”) are stated at the lower of weighted-average cost or net realizable value.
Goodwill and Long-lived Assets: As of March 31, 2018, our goodwill balance was $2.2 billion, with goodwill assigned to our Refining, Lubricants and Specialty Products and HEP segments of $1.7 billion, $0.2 billion and $0.3 billion, respectively. See Note 15 for additional information on our segments. The carrying amount of our goodwill may fluctuate from period to period due to the effects of foreign currency translation adjustments on goodwill assigned to our Lubricants and Specialty Products segment. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.
Our long-lived assets principally consist of our refining assets that are organized as refining asset groups and our lubricants and specialty products business.
Foreign Currency Translation: The functional currency of PCLI and its affiliated non-U.S. Petro-Canada Lubricants entities includes the Canadian dollar, the euro and Chinese renminbi. Balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. Revenue and expense accounts are translated using the weighted-average exchange rates during the period presented. Foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
In connection with our PCLI acquisition on February 1, 2017, we issued intercompany notes to initially fund certain of our foreign businesses. Remeasurement adjustments resulting from the conversion of such intercompany financing amounts to functional currencies are recorded as gains and losses as a component of other income (expense) in the income statement. Such adjustments are not recorded to the Lubricants and Specialty Products segment operations, but to corporate and other. See Note 15 for additional information on our segments.
Income Taxes: Provisions for income taxes include deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences in income for financial and tax purposes, using the liability method of accounting for income taxes. The liability method requires the effect of tax rate changes on deferred income taxes to be reflected in the period in which the rate change was enacted. The liability method also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance unless it is more likely than not that the assets will be realized.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. As of March 31, 2018, we have not fully completed our accounting for the tax effects of enactment of the Act; however, we have made a reasonable estimate of the effects on our existing deferred tax balance and the one-time transition tax and related matters.
At December 31, 2017, we remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based upon the rates at which they are expected to turn in the future, which is generally 25%. At March 31, 2018, we are still analyzing certain aspects of the Act and refining our calculations, which could potentially affect the measurement of these balances or potentially give rise to new deferred amounts. Our accounting for these provisional amounts related to the Act is incomplete pending the completion of our analysis.
Potential interest and penalties related to income tax matters are recognized in income tax expense. We believe we have appropriate support for the income tax positions taken and to be taken on our income tax returns and that our accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors, including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter.

Inventory Repurchase Obligations: We periodically enter into same-party sell / buy transactions, whereby we sell certain refined product inventory and subsequently repurchase the inventory in order to facilitate delivery to certain locations. Such sell / buy transactions are accounted for as inventory repurchase obligations under which proceeds received under the initial sell is recognized as an inventory repurchase obligation that is subsequently reversed when the inventory is repurchased. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we received proceeds of $9.8 million and $12.3 million, respectively, and repaid $10.0 million and $12.7 million, respectively, under these sell / buy transactions.
Accounting Pronouncements - Recently Adopted
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
In February 2018, Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”),” was issued permitting a reclassification of stranded tax effects caused by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted on December 22, 2017 between AOCI and retained earnings. We adopted this standard effective for the period ended March 31, 2018 and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $3.6 million as an increase to AOCI and a decrease to retained earnings.
Hedge Accounting
In August 2017, ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities,” was issued amending hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements, including elimination of the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness, and eases certain documentation and assessment requirements. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018 and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $0.1 million as a decrease to AOCI and an increase to retained earnings to eliminate the separate measurement of hedge ineffectiveness existing at the date of adoption. Our amended presentation and disclosures have been applied prospectively in Note 10.
Stock Compensation
In May 2017, ASU 2017-09, “Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting,” was issued to provide clarity to accounting for share-based payment awards in the event of a modification in the terms or conditions. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018 , which did not affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Post-retirement Benefit Cost
In March 2017, ASU 2017-07, “Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Post-retirement Benefit Cost,” was issued amending current GAAP related to the income statement presentation of the components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic post-retirement cost (credit). We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis with the presentation of service cost separate from the other components of net periodic costs. The interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization of prior service credit have been reclassified from selling, general and administrative expenses to other, net. The adoption of this standard had no impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The effect of the retrospective presentation change related to the net periodic cost / benefit of our defined benefit pension and other post-retirement plans on our consolidated income statement was as follows:

Business Combinations
In January 2017, ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” was issued clarifying the definition of a business with the objective of providing guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018, which did not affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Cash Flow Presentation
In August 2016, ASU 2016-15, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” was issued clarifying how entities should classify certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statements of cash flows and amends certain disclosure requirements. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018, which did not affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” was issued requiring revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the expected consideration for these goods or services. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018, and therefore, conformed our revenue recognition policies for certain lubricant product sales agreements with U.S. and European marketers and distributors that provide rights of return provisions under which we repurchase such products and sell directly to end customers. Prior to January 1, 2018, we recognized revenues and costs, net of allowances for expected returns under such agreements when such products were shipped to U.S. and European distributors. Effective with the adoption of ASU 2014-09, revenues and related product costs are no longer recognized when products are shipped to distributors, but rather, revenues and costs are recognized in earnings only when such products are ultimately sold to end customers.
We adopted this standard using the modified retrospective method, whereby the cumulative effect of applying the new standard was recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as well as the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as of January 1, 2018, which had no impact on our cash flows. The following reflects the cumulative effect of adoption as of January 1, 2018.

Leases
In February 2016, ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” was issued requiring leases to be measured and recognized as a lease liability, with a corresponding right-of-use asset on the balance sheet. This standard has an effective date of January 1, 2019, and we are evaluating the impact of this standard. In preparing for adoption, we have identified, reviewed and evaluated contracts containing lease and
embedded lease arrangements. Additionally, we have acquired software and are implementing systems to facilitate lease capture

NOTE 2: | Holly Energy Partners |
HEP is a publicly held master limited partnership that owns and operates logistic assets consisting of petroleum product and crude oil pipelines, terminals, tankage, loading rack facilities and refinery processing units that principally support our refining and marketing operations in the Mid-Continent, Southwest and Rocky Mountain regions of the United States and Delek’s refinery in Big Spring, Texas. Additionally, HEP owns a 75% interest in UNEV Pipeline, LLC (“UNEV”), the owner of a pipeline running from Woods Cross, Utah to Las Vegas, Nevada (the “UNEV Pipeline”) and associated product terminals, and a 50% ownership interest in each of Osage Pipe Line Company, LLC, the owner of a pipeline running from Cushing, Oklahoma to El Dorado, Kansas (the “Osage Pipeline”) and Cheyenne Pipeline, LLC, the owner of a pipeline running from Fort Laramie, Wyoming to Cheyenne, Wyoming (the “Cheyenne Pipeline”).
As of March 31, 2018, we owned a 57% limited partner interest and a non-economic general partner interest in HEP. As the general partner of HEP, we have the sole ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact HEP’s financial performance, and therefore as HEP's primary beneficiary, we consolidate HEP.
HEP has two primary customers (including us) and generates revenues by charging tariffs for transporting petroleum products and crude oil through its pipelines, by charging fees for terminalling refined products and other hydrocarbons, and storing and providing other services at its storage tanks and terminals. Under our long-term transportation agreements with HEP (discussed further below), we accounted for 79% of HEP’s total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We do not provide financial or equity support through any liquidity arrangements and / or debt guarantees to HEP.
HEP has outstanding debt under a senior secured revolving credit agreement and its senior notes. HEP’s creditors have no recourse to our assets. Furthermore, our creditors have no recourse to the assets of HEP and its consolidated subsidiaries. See Note 9 for a description of HEP’s debt obligations.
HEP has risk associated with its operations. If a major customer of HEP were to terminate its contracts or fail to meet desired shipping or throughput levels for an extended period of time, revenue would be reduced and HEP could suffer substantial losses to the extent that a new customer is not found. In the event that HEP incurs a loss, our operating results will reflect HEP’s loss, net of intercompany eliminations, to the extent of our ownership interest in HEP at that point in time.
SLC Pipeline and Frontier Pipeline
On October 31, 2017, HEP acquired the remaining 75% interest in SLC Pipeline LLC, the owner of a pipeline that serves refineries in the Salt Lake City, Utah area (the “SLC Pipeline”), and the remaining 50% interest in Frontier Aspen LLC, the owner of a pipeline running from Wyoming to Frontier Station, Utah (the “Frontier Pipeline”), from subsidiaries of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (“Plains”) for cash consideration of $250.0 million.
These acquisitions were accounted for as a business combination achieved in stages. HEP’s preexisting equity method investments in SLC Pipeline LLC and Frontier Aspen LLC were remeasured at an acquisition date fair value of $112.0 million, since HEP acquired a controlling interest, and a gain was recognized on the remeasurement of $36.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. The fair value of HEP's preexisting equity method investments in SLC Pipeline LLC and Frontier Aspen LLC was estimated using Level 3 inputs under the income method for these entities, adjusted for lack of control and marketability.
The total consideration of $363.8 million, consisting of cash consideration of $250.0 million, the fair value of HEP's preexisting equity method investments in SLC Pipeline LLC and Frontier Aspen LLC of $112.0 million, and working capital adjustments of $1.8 million, was allocated to the acquisition date fair value of assets and liabilities acquired as of the October 31, 2017 acquisition date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. Preliminary estimated fair values are as follows: cash and cash equivalents $4.6 million, current assets $5.2 million, properties and equipment $277.0 million, intangible assets $70.2 million, goodwill $11.6 million and current liabilities $4.8 million. The fair values are preliminary, and therefore, may change once all needed information has become available and valuations are complete.
HEP Private Placement Agreements
On January 25, 2018, HEP entered into a common unit purchase agreement in which certain purchasers agreed to purchase in a private placement 3,700,000 HEP common units, representing limited partner interests, at a price of $29.73 per common unit. The private placement closed on February 6, 2018, at which time HEP received proceeds of $110.0 million, which were used to repay indebtedness under the HEP Credit Agreement.

HEP Common Unit Continuous Offering Program
In May 2016, HEP established a continuous offering program under which HEP may issue and sell common units from time to time, representing limited partner interests, up to an aggregate gross sales amount of $200 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, HEP issued 152,169 common units under this program, providing $4.6 million in net proceeds. As of March 31, 2018, HEP has issued 2,394,076 common units with an aggregate gross sales amount of $81.7 million.
HEP intends to use the net proceeds for general partnership purposes, which may include funding working capital, repayment of debt, acquisitions and capital expenditures. Amounts repaid under HEP’s credit facility may be reborrowed from time to time.
As a result of these transactions and resulting HEP ownership changes, we adjusted additional capital and equity attributable to HEP's noncontrolling interest holders to reallocate HEP's equity among its unitholders.
Transportation Agreements
HEP serves our refineries under long-term pipeline, terminal and tankage throughput agreements and refinery processing tolling agreements expiring from 2017 through 2036. Under these agreements, we pay HEP fees to transport, store and process throughput volumes of refined products, crude oil and feedstocks on HEP’s pipeline, terminals, tankage, loading rack facilities and refinery processing units that result in minimum annual payments to HEP including UNEV (a consolidated subsidiary of HEP). Under these agreements, the agreed upon tariff rates are subject to annual tariff rate adjustments on July 1 at a rate based upon the percentage change in Producer Price Index or Federal Energy Regulatory Commission index. As of March 31, 2018, these agreements result in minimum annualized payments to HEP of $332.7 million.
Our transactions with HEP and fees paid under our transportation agreements with HEP and UNEV are eliminated and have no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3: | Revenues from Contracts with Customers |
Substantially all revenue-generating activities relate to sales of refined product and excess crude oil inventories sold at market prices (variable consideration) under contracts with customers.

Revenue on refined product and excess crude oil sales are recognized when delivered (via pipeline, in-tank or rack) and the customer obtains control of such inventory, which is typically when title passes and the customer is billed. All revenues are reported inclusive of shipping and handling costs billed and exclusive of any taxes billed to customers. Shipping and handling costs incurred are reported as cost of products sold. HEP recognizes revenues as products are shipped through its pipelines and terminals and as other services are rendered. Additionally, HEP has certain long-term transportation contracts that specify minimum volume requirements, whereby, HEP bills a customer for a minimum level of shipments in the event a customer ships below their contractual requirements. A customer may later utilize such shortfall billings as credit towards future volume shipments in excess of its minimum levels within its respective contractual shortfall make-up period. Such amounts represent an obligation to perform future services, which may be initially deferred and later recognized as revenue based on estimated future shipping levels, including the likelihood of a customer’s ability to utilize such amounts prior to the end of the contractual shortfall make-up period. Payment terms under our contracts with customers are consistent with industry norms and are typically payable within 30 days of the date of invoice.
Our consolidated balance sheet reflects contract liabilities related to unearned revenues attributable to future service obligations under HEP’s third-party transportation agreements. The following table presents changes to our contract liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Such volumes are typically nominated in the month preceding delivery and delivered ratably throughout the following month. Future prices are subject to market fluctuations and therefore, we have elected the exemption to exclude variable consideration under these contracts under Accounting Standards Codification 606-10-50-14A. Aggregate minimum volumes expected to be sold (future performance obligations) under our long-term product sales contracts with customers are as follows:

NOTE 4: | Fair Value Measurements |
Our financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of derivative instruments and RINs credit obligations.
Fair value measurements are derived using inputs (assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk). GAAP categorizes inputs used in fair value measurements into three broad levels as follows:
• | (Level 1) Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
• | (Level 2) Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
• | (Level 3) Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes valuation techniques that involve significant unobservable inputs. |
The carrying amounts of derivative instruments and RINs credit obligations at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were as follows:

Level 1 Instruments
Our NYMEX futures contracts are exchange traded and are measured and recorded at fair value using quoted market prices, a Level 1 input.
Level 2 Instruments
Derivative instruments consisting of foreign currency forward contracts, commodity price swaps and forward sales and purchase contracts are measured and recorded at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the commodity price swap contracts is based on the net present value of expected future cash flows related to both variable and fixed rate legs of the respective swap agreements. The measurements are computed using market-based observable inputs, quoted forward commodity prices with respect to our commodity price swaps. RINs credit obligations are valued based on current market RINs prices. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts are based on values provided by a third party, which were derived using market quotes for similar type instruments, a Level 2 input.
NOTE 5: | Earnings Per Share |
Basic earnings per share is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to HollyFrontier stockholders divided by the average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

NOTE 6: | Stock-Based Compensation |
As of March 31, 2018, we have two principal share-based compensation plans (collectively, the “Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan”).
The compensation cost charged against income for these plans was $8.0 million and $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our accounting policy for the recognition of compensation expense for awards with pro-rata vesting is to expense the costs ratably over the vesting periods.
Additionally, HEP maintains a share-based compensation plan for Holly Logistic Services, L.L.C.’s non-employee directors and certain executives and employees. Compensation cost attributable to HEP’s share-based compensation plan was $0.8 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
Under our Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, we grant certain officers and other key employees restricted stock unit awards with awards generally vesting over a period of two to three years. We previously granted restricted stock to certain officers and key employees with awards vesting over a period of three years. Certain restricted stock unit award recipients have the right to receive dividends, however, restricted stock units do not have any other rights of absolute ownership. Restricted stock award recipients are generally entitled to all the rights of absolute ownership of the restricted shares from the date of grant including the right to vote the shares and to receive dividends. Upon vesting, restrictions on the restricted shares and restricted share units lapse at which time they convert to common shares. In addition, we grant non-employee directors restricted stock unit awards, which typically vest over a period of one year and are payable in stock. The fair value of each restricted stock and restricted stock unit award is measured based on the grant date market price of our common shares and is amortized over the respective vesting period.

Outstanding at March 31, 2018 (non-vested) | 1,654,387 | $ | 33.71 | $ | 80,833 |
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, restricted stock and restricted stock units vested having a grant date fair value of $0.8 million. As of March 31, 2018, there was $27.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock and restricted stock unit grants. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.
Performance Share Units
Under our Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, we grant certain officers and other key employees performance share units, which are payable in stock upon meeting certain criteria over the service period, and generally vest over a period of three years. Under the terms of our performance share unit grants, awards are subject to “financial performance” and “market performance” criteria. Financial performance is based on our financial performance compared to a peer group of independent refining companies, while market performance is based on the relative standing of total shareholder return achieved by HollyFrontier compared to peer group companies. The number of shares ultimately issued under these awards can range from zero to 200% of target award amounts.
A summary of performance share unit activity and changes during the three months ended March 31, 2018 is presented below:
Performance Share Units | Grants | ||
Outstanding at January 1, 2018 (non-vested) | 692,661 | ||
Forfeited | (38,126 | ) | |
Outstanding at March 31, 2018 (non-vested) | 654,535 |
As of March 31, 2018, there was $13.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested performance share units having a grant date fair value of $33.93 per unit. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

(3) | Process chemicals include additives and other chemicals. |
(4) | Includes RINs. |
Inventories, which are valued at the lower of LIFO cost or market, reflect a valuation reserve of $120.0 million and $223.8 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The December 31, 2017 market reserve of $223.8 million was reversed due to the sale of inventory quantities that gave rise to the 2017 reserve. A new market reserve of $120.0 million was established as of March 31, 2018 based on market conditions and prices at that time. The effect of the change in lower of cost or market reserve was a decrease to cost of goods sold totaling $103.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and an increase of $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, respectively.
At March 31, 2018, the LIFO value of inventory, net of the lower of cost or market reserve, was equal to current costs.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the EPA granted the Cheyenne Refinery a one-year small refinery exemption from the Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) program requirements for the 2015 and 2017 calendar years end. As a result, the Cheyenne Refinery’s gasoline and diesel production are not subject to the percentage of production that must satisfy a Renewable Volume Obligation (“RVO”) for those years.
As of the date we received the 2017 Cheyenne Refinery exemption, we had not yet submitted RINs to the EPA to satisfy this 2017 RVO, which we intended to satisfy, in part, with 2016 vintage RINs subject to the 20% carryover limit. In the first quarter of 2018, we increased our inventory of RINs and reduced our cost of products sold by $37.9 million, representing the net cost of the Cheyenne Refinery’s RINs charged to cost of products sold in 2017, less the loss incurred from selling 2016 vintage RINs prior to their expiration in 2018.
In the first quarter of 2018, the EPA allowed us to generate new 2018 vintage RINs to replace the RINs previously submitted to meet the Cheyenne Refinery’s 2015 RVO. In the first quarter of 2018, we increased our inventory of RINs and reduced our cost of products sold by $33.8 million representing the fair value of the 2018 RINs generated because of the Cheyenne Refinery’s exemption of its 2015 RVO.
NOTE 8: | Environmental |
Environmental costs are charged to operating expenses if they relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and do not contribute to current or future revenue generation. We have ongoing investigations of environmental matters at various locations and routinely assess our recorded environmental obligations, if any, with respect to such matters. Liabilities are recorded when site restoration and environmental remediation, cleanup and other obligations are either known or considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Such estimates are undiscounted and require judgment with respect to costs, time frame and extent of required remedial and cleanup activities and are subject to periodic adjustments based on currently available information.

Recoveries of environmental costs through insurance, indemnification arrangements or other sources are included in other assets to the extent such recoveries are considered probable.
We incurred expense of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and and no expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017, for environmental remediation obligations. The accrued environmental liability reflected in our consolidated balance sheets was $102.3 million and $103.7 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, of which $88.1 million and $89.6 million, respectively, were classified as other long-term liabilities. These accruals include remediation and monitoring costs expected to be incurred over an extended period of time (up to 30 years for certain projects). Estimated liabilities could increase in the future when the results of ongoing investigations become known, are considered probable and can be reasonably estimated.
NOTE 9: | Debt |
HollyFrontier Credit Agreement
We have a $1.35 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in February 2022 (the “HollyFrontier Credit Agreement”). The HollyFrontier Credit Agreement may be used for revolving credit loans and letters of credit from time to time and is available to fund general corporate purposes. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, there was no activity under the HollyFrontier Credit Agreement. At March 31, 2018, we were in compliance with all covenants, had no outstanding borrowings and had outstanding letters of credit totaling $2.3 million under the HollyFrontier Credit Agreement.
HEP Credit Agreement
HEP has a $1.4 billion senior secured revolving credit facility maturing in July 2022 (the “HEP Credit Agreement”) and is available to fund capital expenditures, investments, acquisitions, distribution payments, working capital and for general partnership purposes. It is also available to fund letters of credit up to a $50 million sub-limit and has a $300 million accordion. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, HEP received advances totaling $227.0 million and repaid $343.5 million under the HEP Credit Agreement. At March 31, 2018, HEP was in compliance with all of its covenants, had outstanding borrowings of $895.5 million and no outstanding letters of credit under the HEP Credit Agreement.
HEP’s obligations under the HEP Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of HEP’s assets and are guaranteed by HEP’s material wholly-owned subsidiaries. Any recourse to the general partner would be limited to the extent of HEP Logistics Holdings, L.P.’s assets, which other than its investment in HEP are not significant. HEP’s creditors have no recourse to our other assets. Furthermore, our creditors have no recourse to the assets of HEP and its consolidated subsidiaries.
HollyFrontier Senior Notes
Our 5.875% senior notes ($1 billion aggregate principal amount maturing April 2026) (the “HollyFrontier Senior Notes”) are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of ours and rank equally with all our other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.
HEP Senior Notes
HEP’s 6.0% senior notes ($500 million aggregate principal amount maturing August 2024) (the “HEP Senior Notes”) are unsecured and impose certain restrictive covenants, including limitations on HEP’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, make investments, sell assets, incur certain liens, pay distributions, enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter into mergers. At any time when the HEP Senior Notes are rated investment grade by both Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s and no default or event of default exists, HEP will not be subject to many of the foregoing covenants. Additionally, HEP has certain redemption rights under the HEP Senior Notes.
In January 2017, HEP redeemed its $300 million aggregate principal amount of 6.5% senior notes maturing March 2020 at a redemption cost of $309.8 million, at which time HEP recognized a $12.2 million early extinguishment loss consisting of a $9.8 million debt redemption premium and unamortized discount and financing costs of $2.4 million. HEP funded the redemption with borrowings under the HEP Credit Agreement.
Indebtedness under the HEP Senior Notes is guaranteed by HEP’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. HEP’s creditors have no recourse to our assets. Furthermore, our creditors have no recourse to the assets of HEP and its consolidated subsidiaries.

NOTE 10: Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Commodity Price Risk Management
Our primary market risk is commodity price risk. We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility in crude oil and refined products, as well as volatility in the price of natural gas used in our refining operations. We periodically enter into derivative contracts in the form of commodity price swaps, forward purchase and sales and futures contracts to mitigate price exposure with respect to our inventory positions, natural gas purchases, sales prices of refined products and crude oil costs.
Foreign Currency Risk Management
We are exposed to market risk related to the volatility in foreign currency exchange rates. We periodically enter into derivative contracts in the form of foreign exchange forward and foreign exchange swap contracts to mitigate the exposure associated with fluctuations on intercompany notes with our foreign subsidiaries that are not denominated in the U.S. dollar.

Accounting Hedges
We have swap contracts serving as cash flow hedges against price risk on forecasted purchases of natural gas. We also periodically have forward sales contracts that lock in the prices of future sales of crude oil and refined product and swap contracts serving as cash flow hedges against price risk on forecasted purchases of WTI crude oil and forecasted sales of refined product. These contracts have been designated as accounting hedges and are measured at fair value with offsetting adjustments (gains/losses) recorded directly to other comprehensive income. These fair value adjustments are later reclassified to earnings as the hedging instruments mature.

Economic Hedges
We have commodity contracts including forward purchase and sell contracts and NYMEX futures contracts to lock in prices on forecasted purchases and sales of inventory that serve as economic hedges (derivatives used for risk management, but not designated as accounting hedges).

In May 2015, our Board of Directors approved a $1 billion share repurchase program, which replaced all existing share repurchase programs, authorizing us to repurchase common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will depend on market conditions and corporate, regulatory and other relevant considerations. This program may be discontinued at any time by the Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2018, we had remaining authorization to repurchase up to $151.7 million under this stock repurchase program. In addition, we are authorized by our Board of Directors to repurchase shares in an amount sufficient to offset shares issued under our compensation programs.
