Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We make these forward-looking statements in reliance on the safe harbor protections provided under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this Form 10-Q regarding the prospects of our industry, our anticipated financial performance, management’s plans and objectives for future operations, planned capital expenditures, business prospects, outcome of regulatory proceedings, market conditions and other matters, may constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “foresee,” “project,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plans,” “forecasts,” “continue” or “could” or the negative of these terms or variations of them or similar terms. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these expectations will prove to be correct. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain known and unknown risks, and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Item 1A of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, entitled “Risk Factors,” risk factors discussed in other reports and documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the following:
Our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to enable us to pay our debt obligations and our current and expected dividends or to fund our other liquidity needs;
Any sustained reduction in demand for, or supply of, the petroleum products we gather, transport, process, market and store;
The effect of our debt level on our future financial and operating flexibility, including our ability to obtain additional capital on terms that are favorable to us;
Our ability to access the debt and equity markets, which will depend on general market conditions and the credit ratings for our debt obligations and equity;
The failure to realize the anticipated benefits of our acquisition of 100% of the equity interests in Buffalo Parent Gulf Coast Terminals LLC ("Buffalo Parent"), the parent company of Buffalo Gulf Coast Terminals LLC ("BGCT") and HFOTCO LLC, doing business as Houston Fuel Oil Terminal Company LLC (“HFOTCO”);
The loss of, or a material nonpayment or nonperformance by, any of our key customers;
The amount of cash distributions, capital requirements and performance of our investments and joint ventures;
The consequences of any divestitures of non-strategic operating assets or divestitures of interests in some of our operating assets through partnerships and/or joint ventures;
The amount of collateral required to be posted from time to time in our purchase, sale or derivative transactions;
The impact of operational and developmental hazards and unforeseen interruptions;
Our ability to obtain new sources of supply of petroleum products;
Competition from other midstream energy companies;
Our ability to comply with the covenants contained in our credit agreements, continuing covenant agreement and the indentures governing our notes, including requirements under our credit agreements and continuing covenant agreement to maintain certain financial ratios;
Our ability to renew or replace expiring storage, transportation and related contracts;
The overall forward markets for crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids;
The possibility that the construction or acquisition of new assets may not result in the corresponding anticipated revenue increases;
Any future impairment of goodwill resulting from the loss of customers or business;
Changes in currency exchange rates;
Weather and other natural phenomena, including climate conditions;
A cyber attack involving our information systems and related infrastructure, or that of our business associates;

Page 3


The risks and uncertainties of doing business outside of the U.S., including political and economic instability and changes in local governmental laws, regulations and policies;
Costs of, or changes in, laws and regulations and our failure to comply with new or existing laws or regulations, particularly with regard to taxes, safety and protection of the environment;
The possibility that our hedging activities may result in losses or may have a negative impact on our financial results; and
General economic, market and business conditions.
New factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such factors, or the extent to which any such factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q, which reflect management’s opinions only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to any forward-looking statements.

SEMGROUP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1.
OVERVIEW
SemGroup Corporation is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “SemGroup,” “the Company” and similar language used in these notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements refer to SemGroup Corporation and its subsidiaries.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017, which is derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations and its cash flows.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our controlled subsidiaries. All significant transactions between our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Although management believes these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2018.
Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes normally included with financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform previously reported balances to the current presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC.
Our significant accounting policies are consistent with those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting”, to provide clarity and reduce diversity in practice in determining which changes to terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2018. The impact was not material.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Post-retirement Benefit Cost”, which requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from other components of net benefit cost. This ASU also provides explicit guidance on how to present the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement and allows only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. We adopted this guidance retrospectively in the first quarter of 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we reclassified $0.1 million of non-service pension costs from “general and administrative expense” to “other expense (income)”.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory”, which requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2018. The impact was not material.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force)”, to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The update addresses eight different transaction types and clarifies how to classify each in the statement of cash flows, where previously there was unclear or no specific guidance. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2018. The impact was not material.

OVERVIEW, Continued


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, as amended, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than were required under previous U.S. GAAP.
On January 1, 2018, we adopted the guidance of ASU 2014-09, codified as Accounting Standards Codification 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), using a modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption, a reduction to accumulated deficit of $11.5 million was recorded to reflect the impact of adoption related to uncompleted contracts at the date of adoption. The impacts of adoption to the current period results are as follows (in thousands):

Changes to revenue primarily relate to the timing of recognition of deficiencies on take-or-pay agreements for which there is a contractual make-up period and a change to reporting certain gas gathering and processing fees as revenue rather than a reduction of cost of sales. Under ASC 605 - Revenue (“ASC 605”), revenue related to deficiencies with a make-up period was deferred until the contractual right to make-up a deficiency expired. Under ASC 606, we recognize all or a portion of revenue related to deficiencies before the make-up period expires if we determine that it is probable that the customer will not make-up all or some of its deficient volumes, for example if there is insufficient capacity to make up the deficient volumes. This may lead to earlier recognition of deficiency revenues under ASC 606 as compared with ASC 605.
Changes to cost of sales are due to how certain gathering and processing fees related to percentage of proceeds contracts are treated as revenues rather than reductions to purchase price of commodities (cost of sales).
Changes to accounts receivable, net and noncurrent receivables (included in other noncurrent assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets) primarily relate to the timing of recognizing take-or-pay deficiencies with make-up rights as discussed above. Noncurrent receivables related to contracts for which we do not have the right to bill the customer for deficiencies until the contract expiration date.
Changes to other noncurrent assets include success fee payments to third parties for certain contracts which were expensed as incurred under ASC 605, but which have been recognized as assets under ASC 606 and are amortized to general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

OVERVIEW, Continued


Changes to deferred income taxes primarily relate to the deferred tax impact of adoption entries.
Changes to retained earnings are due to the impact of adoption at January 1, 2018, as described above, and cumulative differences in net income through March 31, 2018.
See Note 10 for additional information.
Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”, which allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. For public entities, this ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years and early adoption is permitted in the year prior to the effective date. We will adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2019. The amendments in this update should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized. The impact is not expected to be material.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which introduces new guidance for estimating credit losses on certain types of financial instruments based on expected losses and the timing of the recognition of such losses. For public entities, this ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those years and early adoption is permitted in the year prior to the effective date. We will adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2020. The impact is not expected to be material.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which amends the existing lease guidance to require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by operating and finance leases and to disclose additional quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements. This ASU, as amended, also provides clarifications surrounding the presentation of the effects of leases in the income statement and statement of cash flows. For public entities, this ASU will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. The new guidance will be applied using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements, but are not yet able to quantify the impact. We continue to monitor FASB activity related to this ASU and have engaged with various peer groups to assess certain interpretive issues related to this ASU. We will adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2019.

DISPOSALS OR IMPAIRMENTS OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

On March 15, 2018, we completed the sale of our Mexican asphalt business for $73.5 million, including working capital, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. We recorded a pre-tax gain on disposal of $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Mexican asphalt business contributed $2.3 million of pre-tax income for the three months ended March 31, 2018, excluding the gain on disposal.
On February 23, 2018, we entered into an agreement to sell our U.K. operations, SemLogistics. In addition to the sale price, the agreement provides for potential earnout payments to be made to SemGroup if certain revenue targets are met in the four years following the close of the transaction. SemGroup intends to use proceeds from the sale toward its capital raise plan and to pre-fund capital growth projects. The sale was completed on April 12, 2018, for $76.8 million in cash, subject to customary post-closing adjustments.
At March 31, 2018, the assets and liabilities of our storage and terminalling business in the U.K. are reflected on the consolidated balance sheet as held for sale and have been written down to net realizable value of $75.1 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $0.2 million to adjust the carrying value of the U.K. operations to net realizable value. The U.K. business contributed a pre-tax income of $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, excluding the loss recorded to adjust the assets held for sale to net realizable value. At March 31, 2018, the U.K. assets and liabilities held for sale included $142.6 million of property, plant and equipment, $2.5 million of current assets and $2.4 million of current liabilities. Asset and liability balances disclosed above do not reflect adjustments to carry the balances at net realizable value.

This is due to certain general and administrative expenses we incur in managing the operations of White Cliffs that the other owners are not obligated to share.
Glass Mountain Pipeline, LLC
On December 22, 2017, we completed the sale of our equity method investment in Glass Mountain Pipeline LLC (“Glass Mountain”) for $300 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. Proceeds from the sale were used to repay borrowings on SemGroup's revolving credit facility.

(1) Relates primarily to exchange traded futures. Gain and loss positions on multiple contracts are settled net on a daily basis with the exchange.
(2) Commodity derivatives are subject to netting arrangements.
“Level 1” measurements are based on inputs consisting of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. These include commodity futures contracts that are traded on an exchange.
“Level 2” measurements are based on inputs consisting of market observable and corroborated prices for similar derivative contracts. Assets and liabilities classified as Level 2 include over the counter (“OTC”) traded physical fixed priced purchases and sales forward contracts.
“Level 3” measurements are based on inputs from a pricing service and/or internal valuation models incorporating observable and unobservable market data. These could include commodity derivatives, such as forwards and swaps for

which there is not a highly liquid market and therefore are not included in Level 2 above and interest rate swaps for which certain unobservable inputs are used in the valuation.
Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value levels. At March 31, 2018, all of our physical fixed price forward purchases and sales commodity contracts were being accounted for as normal purchases and normal sales.
The following table summarizes changes in the fair value of our net financial liabilities classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

There were no financial assets or liabilities recorded at fair value which were classified as Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2017.
See Note 6 for fair value of debt instruments. The approximate fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable is equal to book value due to the short-term nature of these items.
Commodity derivative contracts
Our consolidated results of operations and cash flows are impacted by changes in market prices for petroleum products. This exposure to commodity price risk is managed, in part, by entering into various commodity derivatives.
We seek to manage the price risk associated with our marketing operations by limiting our net open positions through (i) the concurrent purchase and sale of like quantities of petroleum products to create back-to-back transactions that are intended to lock in positive margins based on the timing, location or quality of the petroleum products purchased and delivered or (ii) derivative contracts. Our storage and transportation assets can also be used to mitigate time and location basis risks, respectively. All marketing activities are subject to our Comprehensive Risk Management Policy, Delegation of Authority policy and their supporting policies and procedures, which establish limits in order to manage risk and mitigate financial exposure.
Our commodity derivatives can be comprised of swaps, futures contracts and forward contracts of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. These are defined as follows:
Swaps – OTC transactions where a floating price, basis or index is exchanged for a fixed (or a different floating) price, basis or index at a preset schedule in the future, according to an agreed-upon formula.
Futures contracts – Exchange traded contracts to buy or sell a commodity. These contracts are standardized by the exchange in terms of quality, quantity, delivery period and location for each commodity.
Forward contracts – OTC contracts to buy or sell a commodity at an agreed upon future date. The buyer and seller agree on specific terms (price, quantity, delivery period and location) and conditions at the inception of the contract.
The following table sets forth the notional quantities for derivative instruments entered into (in thousands of barrels):

We have posted margin deposits as collateral with brokers who have the right of set off associated with these funds. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, our margin deposit balances were in net asset positions of $5.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. These margin account balances have not been offset against our net commodity derivative instrument (contract) positions. Had these margin deposits been netted against our net commodity derivative instrument (contract) positions as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we would have had asset positions of $1.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

Interest rate swaps
At March 31, 2018, we had interest rate swaps which allow us to limit exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The swaps only apply to a portion of our outstanding debt and provide only partial mitigation of interest rate fluctuations. We have not designated the swaps as hedges, as such, changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded through current period earnings as a component of interest expense. At March 31, 2018, we had interest rate swaps with notional values of $490.4 million. At March 31, 2018, the fair value of our interest rate swaps was $0.1 million which was reported within “other current assets” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized realized and unrealized gains of $1.1 million related to interest rate swaps.
Foreign currency forwards
At March 31, 2018, we had foreign currency forwards primarily to purchase Canadian dollars to limit exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations for capital contributions to our SemCAMS segment primarily to fund capital projects. We have not designated the forwards as hedges, as such, changes in the fair value of the forwards are recorded through current period earnings as a component of foreign currency translation gains and losses. At March 31, 2018, we had foreign currency forwards with notional values of $148.7 million. At March 31, 2018, the fair value of our foreign currency swaps was $1.8 million, which is reported within "other current liabilities" and "other noncurrent liabilities" in our consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized realized and unrealized losses of $4.4 million related to foreign currency forwards.
Concentrations of risk
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, one customer, primarily of our Crude Supply and Logistics segment, accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue with revenues of $240.2 million. No suppliers accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated costs of products sold.
At March 31, 2018, two third-party customers, primarily of our Crude Supply and Logistics segment, accounted for approximately 32% of our consolidated accounts receivable.

INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate was (232)% and (1)% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018, is impacted by a discrete tax expense related to the vesting of restricted stock in the amount of $1.4 million and a discrete tax expense of $10.9 million in Mexico on the sale of the 100% equity interest in our Mexican asphalt business. The rate is also affected by the US deduction for foreign taxes. The rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017, is impacted by a discrete tax expense related to the vesting of restricted stock in the amount of $1.4 million. Significant items that impacted the effective tax rate for each period, as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, include earnings in foreign jurisdictions taxed at different rates and foreign earnings taxed in foreign jurisdictions as well as in the U.S., since they are disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These combined factors, and the magnitude of the permanent items impacting the tax rate relative to income from continuing operations before income taxes, result in rates that are not comparable between the periods.
We have a valuation allowance on a small portion of our state net operating loss carryovers with shorter carryover periods and a foreign tax credit carryover generated in tax years prior to 2014. We have not released the valuation allowance on the foreign tax credits due to the foreign tax credit limitation and the relative subjectivity of forecasts of the relational magnitude of U.S. and foreign taxable income in future periods, as well as the shorter carryover period available for the credits. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when a determination is made that it is more likely than not that some, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized based on the weight of all available evidence. Evidence which is objectively verifiable carries a higher weight in the analysis. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the existence of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character within the carryback and carryforward period available under the tax law. Sources of taxable income include future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, future earnings and available tax planning strategies.
We have analyzed filing positions in all of the federal, state and foreign jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns and determined that no accruals related to uncertainty in tax positions are required. All income tax years of the Company ending after the emergence from bankruptcy remain open for examination in U.S. jurisdictions under general operation of the statute of limitations, including special provisions with regard to net operating loss carryovers. In foreign jurisdictions, all tax periods prior to the emergence from bankruptcy are closed. The statute of limitations has not been waived with respect to any foreign jurisdictions post emergence and tax periods are open for examination in accordance with the general statutes of each foreign jurisdiction. Currently, there are no examinations in progress for our federal and state jurisdictions. Canada Revenue Agency has initiated an income tax audit of SemCAMS ULC for the tax years 2013 through 2015. No other foreign jurisdictions are currently under audit.

HFOTCO acquisition final payment
On April 17, 2018, we made the final payment related to the HFOTCO acquisition in the amount of $579.6 million. The payment was funded through revolving credit facility borrowings and cash on hand.
Pledges and guarantees
Our senior unsecured notes are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries. See Note 15 for additional information.
Our $1.0 billion corporate revolving credit facility is guaranteed by all of SemGroup’s material wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, with the exception of Maurepas Pipeline LLC and HFOTCO, and secured by a lien on substantially all of the property and assets of SemGroup Corporation and the other loan parties, subject to customary exceptions.
The HFOTCO term loan B, HFOTCO tax exempt notes payable and HFOTCO $75 million revolving credit facility are secured by substantially all of the assets of HFOTCO and its immediate parent, Buffalo Gulf Coast Terminals LLC. The HFOTCO tax exempt notes payable have a priority position over the HFOTCO term loan B and HFOTCO revolving credit facility.

Capitalized interest
During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we capitalized interest of $3.1 million and $5.6 million, respectively.
Fair value
We estimate the fair value of our senior unsecured notes based on unadjusted, transacted market prices near the measurement date. Our other long-term debts are estimated to be carried at fair value as a result of the recent timing of borrowings or rate resets. We estimate the fair value of our consolidated long-term debt, including current maturities, to be approximately $2.7 billion at March 31, 2018, which is categorized as a Level 3 measurement due to certain unobservable inputs used to estimate the fair value of the final payment.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Environmental
We may, from time to time, experience leaks of petroleum products from our facilities and, as a result of which, we may incur remediation obligations or property damage claims. In addition, we are subject to numerous environmental regulations. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in the assessment of fines or penalties by regulatory authorities.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (the “KDHE”) initiated discussions during our bankruptcy proceeding regarding six of our sites in Kansas (five owned by Crude Transportation and one owned by SemGas) that KDHE believed, based on their historical use, may have had soil or groundwater contamination in excess of state standards. KDHE sought our agreement to undertake assessments of these sites to determine whether they are contaminated. We reached an agreement with KDHE on this matter and entered into a Consent Agreement and Final Order with KDHE to conduct environmental assessments on the sites and to pay KDHE’s costs associated with their oversight of this matter. We have conducted Phase II investigations at all sites. Four sites are in various stages of follow-up investigation, remediation, monitoring, or closure under KDHE oversight.  The environmental work at these sites is being completed under consent orders between Rose Rock Midstream Crude, L.P. and the KDHE. Two of the remaining

Page 16

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, Continued


sites have limited impacts to shallow soil and groundwater and the groundwater is currently being monitored on a semi-annual basis until such time that closure can be granted by the KDHE.  No active remediation is anticipated for these two sites.  The final two sites have required additional investigation and soil and groundwater remediation may be necessary to achieve KDHE closure. We do not anticipate any penalties or fines for these historical sites.
Other matters
We are party to various other claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of our management, the ultimate resolution of these claims, legal actions and complaints, after consideration of amounts accrued, insurance coverage and other arrangements, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently uncertain, and estimates of our consolidated liabilities may change materially as circumstances develop.
Asset retirement obligations
We will be required to incur significant removal and restoration costs when we retire our natural gas gathering and processing facilities in Canada. At March 31, 2018, we have an asset retirement obligation liability of $22.7 million, which is included within other noncurrent liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. This amount was calculated using the $129.0 million cost we estimate we would incur to retire these facilities, discounted based on our risk-adjusted cost of borrowing and the estimated timing of remediation.
The calculation of the liability for an asset retirement obligation requires the use of significant estimates, including those related to the length of time before the assets will be retired, cost inflation over the assumed life of the assets, actual remediation activities to be required, and the rate at which such obligations should be discounted. Future changes in these estimates could result in material changes in the value of the recorded liability. In addition, future changes in laws or regulations could require us to record additional asset retirement obligations.
Our other segments may also be subject to removal and restoration costs upon retirement of their facilities. However, we are unable to predict when, or if, our pipelines, storage tanks and other facilities would become completely obsolete and require decommissioning. Accordingly, we have not recorded a liability or corresponding asset, as both the amount and timing of such potential future costs are indeterminable.
Purchase and sale commitments
We routinely enter into agreements to purchase and sell petroleum products at specified future dates. We account for derivatives at fair value with the exception of commitments that have been designated as normal purchases and sales for which we do not record assets or liabilities related to these agreements until the product is purchased or sold. At March 31, 2018, such commitments included the following (in thousands):

Certain of the commitments shown in the table above relate to agreements to purchase product from a counterparty and to sell a similar amount of product (in a different location) to the same counterparty. Many of the commitments shown in the table above are cancellable by either party, as long as notice is given within the time frame specified in the agreement (generally 30 to 120 days).
Our SemGas segment has a take-or-pay contractual obligation related to the fractionation of natural gas liquids through June 2023. The approximate amount of future obligation is as follows (in thousands):

REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

On January 19, 2018 (the “Issue Date”), we issued and sold to WP SemGroup Holdings L.P. (“Warburg”) and certain other investors an aggregate of 350,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”), convertible into 10,606,061 shares (subject to adjustment) of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), for a cash purchase price of $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock and aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $350,000,000, which proceeds were utilized (i) to repay amounts borrowed under the Company’s revolving credit facility, (ii) to fund growth capital expenditures and (iii) for general corporate purposes. The Preferred Stock was recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets net of $7.6 million of issuance costs.
The Preferred Stock is a new class of equity security that ranks senior to the Common Stock with respect to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation. Subject to certain exceptions, so long as any Preferred Stock remains outstanding, no dividend or distribution will be declared or paid on, and no redemption or repurchase will be agreed to or consummated of, stock on a parity with the Preferred Stock (“Parity Stock”), Common Stock or any other shares of stock junior to the Preferred Stock, unless all accumulated and unpaid dividends for all preceding full fiscal quarters have been declared and paid with respect to the Preferred Stock. In addition, no dividend or distribution or redemption or repurchase shall be paid on Parity Stock, Common Stock or any other shares of stock junior to the Preferred Stock for any period unless the Preferred Stock has been paid full cash dividends in respect of the same period; provided, however, that the Company may pay dividends on Common Stock in respect of any fiscal quarter ending on or prior to June 30, 2020 (the “PIK Period”).
The holders of Preferred Stock (the “Holders”) will receive quarterly distributions equal to an annual rate of 7.0% ($70.00 per share annualized) of $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock, subject to certain adjustments (the “Liquidation Preference”). With respect to any quarter ending on or prior to the PIK Period, the Company may elect, in lieu of paying a distribution in cash, to have the amount that would have been payable if such dividend had been paid in cash added to the Liquidation Preference.
On or after the eighteen month anniversary of the Issue Date, the Holders may convert their Preferred Stock into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to, per share of Preferred Stock, the quotient of the Liquidation Preference divided by $33.00 (the “Conversion Price”), subject to certain adjustments including customary anti-dilution adjustments (such quotient, the “Conversion Rate”). Holders may elect to convert the Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, so long as the aggregate value of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such partial conversion is not for less than $50,000,000 or a lesser amount if such conversion relates to all of a Holder’s remaining Preferred Stock.
On or after the three year anniversary of the Issue Date, if the Holders have not elected to convert all of their shares of Preferred Stock, the Company may cause the outstanding Preferred Stock to be converted into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to, per share of Preferred Stock, the quotient of the Liquidation Preference divided by the Conversion Price, subject to certain adjustments including customary anti-dilution adjustments; provided, that in order for the Company to exercise such conversion right, the closing sale price of the Common Stock during a designated period be greater than or equal to $47.85, the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion shall be registered and available for resale by the Holders pursuant to a registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission covering such resales, the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange, and certain average daily trading volume minimum requirements are met. The Company may elect to convert the Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, so long as the aggregate value of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such partial conversion is not for less than $50,000,000 or such lesser amount if such conversion relates to the aggregate amount of all remaining Preferred Stock.
Upon a change of control that involves consideration that is at least 90% cash, Holders are required to convert their shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the product of the Conversion Rate and the quotient of (a) the product of the Conversion Price and the Cash Change of Control Conversion Premium (as defined below), divided by (b) the average volume weighted average price of the Common Stock during a designated period and (ii) the Conversion Rate otherwise in effect at such time. The “Cash Change of Control Conversion Premium” equals (i) on or prior to the first anniversary of the Issue Date, 130%, (ii) after the first anniversary of the Issue Date, but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Issue Date, 120%, (iii) after the second anniversary of the Issue Date, but on or prior to the third anniversary of the Issue Date, 105%, and (iv) thereafter, 101%.

9.     REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK, Continued

Upon a change of control that involves consideration that is less than 90% cash, Holders may elect to: (i) convert all, but not less than all, outstanding shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock at the then-applicable Conversion Rate; (ii) except as described below, if the Company will not be the surviving person upon the consummation of such change of control, require the Company to use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Holders a security in the surviving person or the parent of the surviving person that has rights, preferences and privileges substantially similar to the Preferred Stock; provided, however, that, if the Company is unable to do so, such Holders shall be entitled to: (A) instead elect to convert shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the mechanics described in clause (i) above or (B) require the Company to redeem all (but not less than all) of such Holder’s Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to 101% of the Liquidation Preference, with the redemption price being paid (at the Company’s option): (1) in cash or (2) in Common Stock; (iii) if the Company is the surviving person upon the consummation of such change of control, continue to hold such Holders’ shares of Preferred Stock; or (iv) require the Company to redeem all (but not less than all) of such Holder’s Preferred Stock at a cash price per share equal to the Liquidation Preference. At March 31, 2018, a change in control is not considered probable.
Holders shall be entitled to vote on all matters on which the holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to vote and, except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, or by law, the Holders shall vote together with the holders of shares of Common Stock as a single class. Each Holder shall be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of votes such Holder would have had if all shares of Preferred Stock held by such Holder had been converted into shares of Common Stock.
So long as any Preferred Stock is outstanding, the affirmative vote or consent of the Holders of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class, will be necessary for effecting or validating: (i) any issuance of stock senior to the Preferred Stock, (ii) any issuance by the Company of Parity Stock, subject to certain exceptions described below, (iii) any repurchase by the Company of any Preferred Stock, other than on a pro rata basis among all Holders of Preferred Stock, (iv) any special, one-time dividend or distribution with respect to any class of junior stock and (v) any spinoff or other distribution of any equity securities or assets of any of the Company’s subsidiaries to its stockholders in which the consideration received by the Company in such transaction is less than fair market value, subject to certain exceptions. However, the foregoing rights of the Holders will not restrict any of the following actions, subject to certain terms: (i) the Company and any of its controlled affiliates entering into joint ventures with third parties, (ii) the issuance of securities, capital contributions or incurrence of intercompany indebtedness among the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (iii) the issuance of securities, capital contributions or incurrence of intercompany indebtedness among the Company and any joint ventures, partnerships or other minority owned entities in which the Company or its subsidiaries have an equity or other interest, in each case, which exist as of the Issue Date.
Notwithstanding the vote or consent of the Holders described above, after the Issue Date, the Company may issue certain amounts of Parity Stock without the approval of the Holders if: (A) the aggregate amount of such issuances is less than or equal to $250,000,000 (excluding the aggregate amount of any additional shares of Preferred Stock issued to Warburg); or (B) the aggregate initial purchase price of the then outstanding Preferred Stock is less than $100,000,000.
Prior to the first anniversary of the Issue Date, no Holder may transfer any Preferred Stock without the prior written consent of the Company. Prior to the second anniversary of the Issue Date, Holders and their affiliates are prohibited from directly or indirectly engaging in any short sales or other hedging transactions involving the Preferred Stock and Common Stock underlying such Holder’s Preferred Stock.
For so long as Warburg and its affiliates collectively own 75% or more of the outstanding Preferred Stock acquired by Warburg and its affiliates on the Issue Date, the Company, prior to any issuance of Parity Stock, is required to provide Warburg with a reasonable opportunity to purchase all or any portion of such shares of Parity Stock to be issued by the Company on substantially the same terms offered to the other purchasers of such securities.
The terms of the Preferred Stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and the Purchasers made as of the date of the Purchase Agreement and as of the Issue Date, and the parties have agreed to indemnify each other against certain losses resulting from breaches of their respective representations, warranties and covenants.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company has granted to Warburg, until Warburg no longer owns at least 50% of the Preferred Stock issued to Warburg and its affiliates on the Issue Date, certain rights to designate an observer (the “Board Observer”) to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), who shall have the right to attend full

meetings of the Board (including any executive session and certain committees thereof) and receive such materials as other members of the Board receive.
In addition, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also granted Warburg and its affiliates rights to require the Company to file and maintain, subject to the penalties described in the Purchase Agreement, registration statements with respect to the resale of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. The Company is required to file or cause to be filed a registration statement (the “Preferred Registration Statement”) for the resale of registrable securities and is required to cause the Preferred Registration Statement to become effective no later than the eighteen month anniversary of the Issue Date. In certain circumstances, Warburg and its affiliates will have piggyback registration rights on offerings initiated by the Company or other persons who have been granted registration rights, and Warburg has the right to request two underwritten offerings upon certain terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Holders of registrable securities will cease to have registration rights under the Purchase Agreement on the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the date on which shares Preferred Stock are first converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the date on which no registrable securities remain outstanding; provided, that the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Preferred Registration Statement during all periods in which Warburg (A) is deemed to be an affiliate of the Company pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or (B) together with its affiliates, owns more than 5% of the Company’s Common Stock (including Common Stock it would own on an as-converted basis).
On May 1, 2018, we declared a paid-in-kind dividend of $4.8 million, which has been prorated for the period from January 19, 2018 to March 31, 2018. The dividend will be paid on May 25, 2018.

10.
REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

We provide gathering, transportation, storage, distribution, marketing and other midstream services primarily to producers, refiners of petroleum products and other market participants located in the Gulf Coast, Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions of the United States of America (the “U.S.”) and Western Canada. In general, we recognize service revenue as the service is performed (“over time”) and product sales revenues are recognized when control of the product transfers to the customer (“point in time”). Our revenue from contracts with customers are disaggregated by segment as follows:
Crude Transportation
Crude Transportation generates revenue by providing crude oil pipeline and truck transportation services to customers under fee-based contractual arrangements generally based on units of volume transported. In some instances fees are fixed and not dependent on usage, such as take-or-pay arrangements.
Crude Facilities
Crude Facilities generates revenue by providing crude oil storage and terminalling services primarily to customers at the Cushing Hub under fee-based contractual arrangements that, in some instances are fixed and not dependent on usage. Pump-over and unloading fees are based on per volume fees for units delivered or withdrawn.

Crude Supply and Logistics
Crude Supply and Logistics performs marketing activities including purchasing crude oil for its own account from producers and aggregators and selling to traders and refiners under contracts generally with initial terms of less than one year. Revenue is recognized based on market prices at the time the commodities are sold. In certain transactions, we purchase inventory from, and sell inventory to, the same counterparty. Such transactions that are entered into in contemplation of one another are recorded on a net basis.

HFOTCO
HFOTCO generates revenue by providing storage and terminalling services to customers in the Houston Ship Channel. These contractual arrangements typically include fixed take-or-pay fees related to provision of storage and throughput capacity and usage based charges for pump-over, heating, berthing and excess throughput volumes.

10.
REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS, Continued


HFOTCO also generates revenue from leases of certain land, tanks and a barge dock, which are accounted for as a direct financing lease and are outside of the scope of ASC 606.

SemGas
SemGas generates revenue by providing natural gas and natural gas liquids gathering and processing services to customers based on agreements that are a combination of percent of proceeds and fee-based contracts. Initial contract terms can range from monthly and interruptible to the life of the reserves and, upon expiration, continue to renew on a month-to-month or year-to-year evergreen basis. SemGas’ customers include producers, operators, marketers and traders. Gathering and processing fees are generally based on per volume fees. Product sales revenue is generated from the sale of NGLs and residue gas arising from processing at prevailing market prices.

SemCAMS
SemCAMS generates revenue from its processing plants through volumetric fees for services under contractual arrangements with working interest owners and third-party customers and the pass through of certain operating costs. Pass-through cost and operating expense fee recoveries are reported as "Other revenue" in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). SemCAMS also derives revenue as the owner and operator of pipeline gathering systems that gather gas from multiple wells located in the same production unit and as the owner and operator of pipeline transportation systems that deliver the gathered gas to its processing plant. SemCAMS’ customers include producers of varying sizes. To support operations at our plants, several producers have committed to process all of their current and future natural gas production.

Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other is not an operating segment, but contains the results of operations for our former Mexican asphalt business and U.K. storage business, which are not significant components of our business.
Key areas of judgment    

Take or pay
Contracts with take-or-pay provisions are recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of available capacity. Payments made for unused take-or-pay capacity, which allow the customer to carryforward a portion of the unused capacity to future periods, are deferred until it becomes unlikely that the capacity will be used prior to contract expiration. Determining when, or if, the capacity will be used requires judgment.

Percentage of proceeds
Contracts with percentage of proceeds terms typically involve the receipt of natural gas at the wellhead and include gathering, processing and marketing of the resulting NGLs and residue gas with SemGroup retaining a portion of the proceeds from the ultimate sale to a third-party. The terms of these agreements include various gathering and processing fees. The determination of whether the transaction is a purchase at the wellhead by SemGroup with gathering and processing performed on our own account or whether the transaction represents gathering and processing as a service provided to the producer by SemGroup with a purchase and sale of processed gas at the completion of the service, requires judgment and is impacted by when control of the underlying commodity has been deemed to move from the producer to the processor. This determination impacts whether gathering and processing fees are recorded as reductions to cost of sales or recorded as service revenue.

Principal vs. agent

We engage in various types of transactions where we perform marketing activities for producers, such as our percentage of proceeds contracts, or transactions where costs are incurred and reimbursed by customers or other owners in facilities, such as SemCAMS' pass-through costs. These types of transactions require judgment to determine whether we are the principal or an agent in the transaction and as a result whether revenues are recorded gross or net.


Page 23

SEMGROUP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
10.
REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS, Continued


Non-cash consideration
SemGroup receives commodities from its customers in the form of plant and field fuel, pipeline loss allowance and retention of drip liquids. The purpose of the receipt of these commodities is to keep the Company whole in the case of minor operational usage or loss of product and is not intended as a consideration for services performed. Therefore, the receipt of these commodities does not represent consideration and is not recorded as revenue. Any net retention of commodities in excess of actual losses is recorded in inventory and recognized as revenue when sold.

Tiered pricing and material rights
We have certain contracts that provide customers with rates that reduce incrementally as volumes increase beyond certain thresholds. These types of agreements require judgment to determine if the option for the customer to acquire additional services constitutes a material right that the customer would not receive without entering into the contract, e.g. the discount exceeds the range of discounts typically given. If it is determined that a material right exists, a portion of the revenue is allocated to that right at contract inception and recognized as revenue as the option for additional services is exercised or when the option expires. In contrast, if it is concluded that the option to acquire additional services reflects standalone selling price, this would constitute a marketing offer and not a material right.

Remaining performance obligations

Most of our service contracts are such that we have the right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date. Therefore, we are utilizing the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-55-18 under which we recognize revenue in the amount to which we have the right to invoice. Applying this practical expedient, we are not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations under these agreements. However, certain of our agreements, such as "take-or-pay" agreements, do not qualify for the practical expedient. The amount and timing of revenue recognition for such contracts is presented below (in thousands):

1,835,912


For our product sales contracts, we have elected the practical expedient set out in ASC 606-10-50-14A that states that we are not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these agreements, each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation and therefore future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. Under product sales contracts, the variability arises as both volume and pricing (typically index based) are not known until the product is delivered.

Receivables from contracts with customers

Accounts receivable, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets represents current receivables from contracts with customers. Certain noncurrent receivables from contracts with customers are included in “other noncurrent assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These amounts are accruals to recognize revenue for performance to date related to customer deficiencies on minimum volume commitments with make-up rights for which the use of the make-up rights are not probable due to capacity constraints or other factors. Therefore, we have accrued the amount for which no future performance by SemGroup will be required, but for which we do not have a present right to bill the customer until the end of the contract. The balance of noncurrent receivables from customer contracts was (in thousands):

$

$


Noncurrent receivables for the transactions described above were not recorded prior to the adoption of ASC 606 as our policy was to defer recognition of deficiencies with make-up rights until the contractual make-up rights expired.

Deferred revenue

We record deferred revenue when we have received a payment in advance of delivering a product or performing a service. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized $3.2 million of revenue which was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period.

Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract

Unless material, we expense costs to obtain or fulfill a contract in the period incurred. At March 31, 2018, we had contract assets of $9.7 million related to costs incurred to obtain contracts which had been expensed as incurred under previous guidance. These costs are reported within “other noncurrent assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized straight-line over the 25-year life of the related contracts.

SEGMENTS
Our businesses are organized based on the nature and location of the services they provide. Certain summarized information related to our reportable segments is shown in the tables below. None of the operating segments have been aggregated. Although Corporate and Other does not represent an operating segment, it is included in the tables below to reconcile segment information to that of the consolidated Company. Prior period segment disclosures have been recast to include the SemMexico and SemLogistics segments within Corporate and Other, as these businesses are no longer significant and are not expected to be significant in the future. Eliminations of transactions between segments are also included within Corporate and Other in the tables below.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, we changed our definition of segment profit to focus on the results of each segment exclusive of general and administrative costs and related overhead allocations. Segment Profit is defined as revenue, less cost of products sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) and operating expenses, plus equity earnings and is adjusted to remove unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and to reflect equity earnings on an earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) basis. Reflecting equity earnings on an EBITDA basis is achieved by adjusting equity earnings to exclude our percentage of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization from equity earnings for operated equity method investees. For our investment in NGL Energy, we exclude equity earnings and include cash distributions received. Prior period segment profit has been recast to be consistent with the revised definition.
The accounting policies of each segment are the same as the accounting policies of the consolidated Company. Transactions between segments are generally recorded based on prices negotiated between the segments.
Our results by segment are presented in the tables below (in thousands):

EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is based on net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, which is calculated as net income (loss) less cumulative preferred stock dividends. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of unvested equity compensation awards and the potential conversion of preferred stock, if dilutive.
The following summarizes the calculation of basic earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Transactions with NGL Energy and its subsidiaries primarily relate to crude oil marketing, leased storage and transportation services, including buy/sell transactions. Transactions with White Cliffs primarily relate to leased storage, purchases and sales of crude oil, transportation fees for shipments on the White Cliffs Pipeline, and management fees.
In accordance with ASC 845-10-15, the buy/sell transactions with NGL Energy and White Cliffs were reported as revenue on a net basis in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) because the purchases of inventory and subsequent sales of the inventory were with the same counterparty and entered into in contemplation of one another.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we generated the following transactions with related parties (in thousands):

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC.

Overview of Business
Our business is to provide gathering, transportation, storage, distribution, marketing and other midstream services primarily to producers, refiners of petroleum products and other market participants located in the Gulf Coast, Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions of the United States of America (the “U.S.”) and Canada. We, or our significant equity method investees, have an asset base consisting of pipelines, gathering systems, storage facilities, terminals, processing plants and other distribution assets located between North American production and supply areas, including the Gulf Coast, Midwest, Rocky Mountain and Western Canadian regions. At March 31, 2018, our operations are conducted directly and indirectly through our primary business segments – Crude Transportation, Crude Facilities, Crude Supply and Logistics, HFOTCO, SemGas® and SemCAMS.
Our Assets
At March 31, 2018, our segments owned the following:
Crude Transportation operates crude oil pipelines and truck transportation businesses in the U.S. Crude Transportation’s assets include:
a 450-mile crude oil gathering and transportation pipeline system with over 560,000 barrels of associated storage capacity in Kansas and northern Oklahoma that is connected to several third-party pipelines and refineries;
the Wattenberg Oil Trunkline (“WOT”), a 75-mile, 12-inch diameter crude oil gathering pipeline system that transports crude oil from production facilities in the DJ Basin to the pipeline owned by White Cliffs Pipeline, L.L.C. (“White Cliffs”). The WOT has a capacity of 60,000 barrels per day as well as 360,000 barrels of operational storage;
a crude oil trucking fleet of approximately 195 transport trucks and approximately 215 trailers;
Maurepas Pipeline, consisting of three pipelines, with an approximate total of 106 miles, that service refineries in the Gulf Coast region (the “Maurepas Pipeline”); and
a 51% ownership interest in White Cliffs, which owns two parallel 527-mile 12-inch common carrier, crude oil pipelines, that transport crude oil from Platteville, Colorado to Cushing, Oklahoma (the “White Cliffs Pipeline”) that we operate.
Crude Facilities operates crude oil storage and terminal businesses in the U.S. Crude Facilities’ assets include:
approximately 7.6 million barrels of crude oil storage capacity in Cushing, Oklahoma, of which approximately 6.0 million barrels were leased to customers and the remaining barrels were available for use in crude oil operations and marketing activities; and
a 30-lane crude oil truck unloading facility with 350,000 barrels of associated storage capacity in Platteville, Colorado which connects to the origination point of the White Cliffs Pipeline.
Crude Supply and Logistics operates a crude oil marketing business which utilizes our Crude Transportation and Crude Facilities assets for marketing purposes. Additionally, Crude Supply and Logistics’ assets include approximately 61,800 barrels of crude oil storage capacity in Trenton and Stanley, North Dakota.
HFOTCO operates a large terminal facility located on the U.S. Gulf Coast. HFOTCO’s assets include:
approximately 16.8 million barrels of product storage with crude pipeline connectivity to the local refining complex, deep water marine access and inbound crude receipt pipeline connectivity, as well as rail and truck loading and unloading capabilities; and
330 acres on the Houston Ship Channel.
SemGas, which provides natural gas gathering and processing services in the U.S. SemGas owns and operates gathering systems and four processing plants with 595 million cubic feet per day of capacity.

Page 37


SemCAMS, which provides natural gas gathering and processing services in Alberta, Canada. SemCAMS owns working interests in, and operates, four natural gas processing plants with a combined operating capacity of 695 million cubic feet per day.
At March 31, 2018, we also owned a refined product and crude oil storage services facility at Milford Haven in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) that had multi-product storage capacity of approximately 8.7 million barrels. On April 12, 2018, we completed the sale of our U.K. facility.
Additionally, we hold an 11.78% ownership interest in the general partner of NGL Energy Partners LP (“NGL Energy”) (NYSE: NGL) which is reported within Corporate and Other.

Recent Developments
On January 8, 2018, we announced that we had reached an agreement for the sale of our Mexican asphalt business, SemMaterials Mexico. On March 15, 2018, we announced the completion of the sale of our asphalt business to Ergon Asfaltos Mexico HC, LLC, for $73.5 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments.
On February 23, 2018, we entered into an agreement to sell our U.K. operations, SemLogistics. In addition to the sale price, the agreement provides for potential earnout payments to be made to SemGroup if certain revenue targets are met in the four years following close of the transaction. SemGroup intends to use the proceeds from the sale toward its capital raise plan and to pre-fund capital growth projects. The sale was completed on April 12, 2018, for $76.8 million in cash, subject to customary post-closing adjustments.
On April 17, 2018, we made the final payment related to the HFOTCO acquisition in the amount of $579.6 million. The payment was funded through revolving credit facility borrowings and cash on hand.
On May 7, 2018, we announced plans to convert a portion of the White Cliffs Pipeline system to natural gas liquids service. The converted pipeline will have initial capacity of 90,000 barrels per day and will be expandable up to 120,000 barrels per day. The pipeline will be taken out of service in the first quarter of 2019 for conversion and is expected to be in service during the fourth quarter of 2019. The project is expected to cost between $60 million and $66 million, of which we will fund 51%. The project is supported by 10 year capacity agreements totaling 50,000 barrels per day.

Revenue and Expenses
Revenue and expenses are analyzed by operating segment below.

Page 38


General and administrative expense
General and administrative expenses increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $26.5 million from $21.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily due to the prior year acquisition of HFOTCO.
Depreciation and amortization expense
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $50.5 million from $24.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily as a result of the acquisition of HFOTCO and completion of the Maurepas Pipeline.
Loss (gain) on disposal or impairment, net
Net gain on disposal or impairment for the three months ended March 31, 2018, was primarily due to the disposal of our Mexican asphalt business, which was held for sale at December 31, 2017. The prior year net loss on disposal or impairment was primarily due to the write-down of certain rights-of-way.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $42.5 million from $13.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase is primarily due to $19.5 million of HFOTCO related interest expense including accretion of the final payment related to the HFOTCO acquisition and $10.4 million due to the $325 million, 6.375% senior unsecured notes sold in March 2017 and the $300 million, 7.25% senior unsecured notes sold in September 2017. These increases were offset by $1.2 million in additional capitalized interest at SemCAMS.
Loss on early extinguishment of debt
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we purchased $290 million of our outstanding $300 million senior unsecured notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) through a tender offer. The price included a premium and interest to the purchase date. A notice of redemption was issued for the remaining $10 million of 2021 Notes, which were not redeemed through the tender offer pursuant to the redemption and satisfaction and discharge provisions of the indenture governing the 2021 Notes. The redemption price included a redemption premium and interest to the redemption date. As a result, we recognized a loss of $19.9 million on the early extinguishment of the 2021 Notes, which included premiums of $15.9 million and the write off of $3.6 million of associated unamortized debt issuance costs.
Foreign currency transaction loss
Foreign currency transaction loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018, is primarily due to foreign currency forwards to purchase Canadian dollars to limit exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations for capital contributions to our Canadian operations.
Income tax expense (benefit)
We reported an income tax expense of $23.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to an expense of $95.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The effective tax rate was (232)% and (1)% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018, is impacted by a discrete tax expense related to the vesting of restricted stock in the amount of $1.4 million and a discrete tax expense of $10.9 million in Mexico on the sale of the 100% equity interest in our Mexican asphalt business. The rate is also affected by the US deduction for foreign taxes. The rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017, is impacted by a discrete tax expense related to the vesting of restricted stock in the amount of $1.4 million. Significant items that impacted the effective tax rate for each period, as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, include earnings in foreign jurisdictions taxed at different rates and foreign earnings taxed in foreign jurisdictions as well as in the U.S., since they are disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These combined factors, and the magnitude of the permanent items impacting the tax rate relative to income from continuing operations before income taxes, result in rates that are not comparable between the periods.

Three months ended March 31, 2018 versus three months ended March 31, 2017
Revenue
Pipeline transportation revenue increased to $21.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $6.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was primarily the result of $14.0 million related to the start-up of the Maurepas Pipeline and a $1.2 million increase on the WOT, partially offset by a $0.2 million reduction to intersegment transportation attributed to our Crude Supply and Logistics segment and a $0.1 million reduction in other volumes.
Truck transportation revenue decreased to $13.2 million in three months ended March 31, 2018, from $14.3 million for the same period in 2017 as a result of lower volumes.
Operating expense
Operating expense increased to $17.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to $16.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was primarily the result of our Maurepas pipeline operations.
Earnings from equity method investments
Crude Transportation’s earnings from equity method investments decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $12.6 million from $17.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017, due to the sale of Glass Mountain Pipeline in December 2017, as well as a reduction in volumes.
Adjustments to reflect equity earnings on an EBITDA basis
Segment profit adjusts earnings from our equity method investments to exclude our proportional share of our equity investee’s depreciation and amortization expense. The decrease as compared to the prior period is primarily due to the sale of Glass Mountain Pipeline in December 2017.

Three months ended March 31, 2018 versus three months ended March 31, 2017
Revenue
Revenue remained relatively constant at $12.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The reduction in storage revenue of $0.3 million is the result of lower rates and the expiration of one 250,000 barrel tank lease. Compared to prior year, the average capacity used internally for crude oil operations and marketing activities increased to 1.7 million barrels from 1.4 million barrels and the average capacity leased by storage customers decreased to 6.0 million barrels from 6.6 million barrels. This decrease was offset primarily by an increase in unloading.
Operating expense
Operating expense increased to $2.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, as a result of increased compensation and other expense.

Gross product revenue increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $1.2 billion from $1.1 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was primarily due to a higher average sales price of $62 per barrel on lower volume sold of 19.6 million barrels in the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to an average sales price of $51 per barrel on volume sold of 21.7 million barrels in the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Gross product revenue was reduced by $764.6 million and $813.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 845-10-15, “Nonmonetary Transactions”. ASC 845-10-15 requires that certain transactions -- those where inventory is purchased from a customer then resold to the same customer -- to be presented in the income statement on a net basis, resulting in a reduction of revenue and costs of products sold by the same amount.
Costs of products sold
Costs of products sold increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $450.9 million (including $11.2 million of intersegment transportation and facility expense) from $298.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017 (including $9.1 million of intersegment transportation and facility expense). Costs of products sold reflect reductions of $764.6 million and $813.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, in accordance with ASC 845-10-15.

Page 40


There was a decrease in barrels sold, as described above, combined with an increase in the average cost per barrel of crude oil to $62 in the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $51 in the three months ended March 31, 2017.
The increase in cost of products sold outpaced the increase in revenue leading to a decrease in segment profit of $4.2 million as compared to the prior year. This is primarily due to increased pipeline transportation fees related to firm commitments beginning in June 2017 and increased truck transportation fees related to increased volume which are included in cost of products sold.
Operating expense
Operating expense decreased slightly to $1.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to lower compensation expense.

HFOTCO, which was acquired in July 2017, generates revenue by providing storage and terminalling services to customers in the Houston Ship Channel. These contractual arrangements typically include fixed take-or-pay fees related to provision of storage and throughput capacity and usage based charges for pump-over, heating, berthing and excess throughput volumes. HFOTCO also generates revenue from leases of certain land, tanks and a barge dock which are accounted for as a direct financing lease.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, HFOTCO’s operating expense included the write-off of a receivable of $4.2 million related to clean up costs associated with tank damage for which the insurance claim was denied.

Revenue
Product sales revenue decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $39.7 million from $47.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to lower average natural gas NYMEX price of $3.00/

Page 41


MMbtu in the three months ended March 31, 2018, versus $3.32/MMbtu for the same period in 2017, lower average NGL basket price of $0.83/gallon in the three months ended March 31, 2018, versus $0.85/gallon for the same period in 2017. The decrease was offset by higher volumes (28,161 MMcf in the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to 26,658 MMcf for the same period in 2017). Volume increases are primarily due to Stack production, offset by reduced Mississippi Lime drilling coupled with natural well production declines.

Gathering and processing fee revenue increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $16.2 million from $14.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. In the current year, certain fees are reported as gathering and processing fee revenue under ASU 2016-15 - “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”), whereas in the prior year these amounts were reported as reductions to cost of sales under ASC 605. The current year includes $3.5 million of fee revenue which would have been included as a reduction to cost of sales under the prior year methodology. Exclusive of the impact of ASC 606, gathering and processing fee revenues are down although volumes are up, due to contract mix.
Costs of products sold
Costs of products sold decreased to $33.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $36.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to lower prices and lower Mississippi Lime volumes, offset by the impact of ASC 606 discussed above.
Operating expense
Operating expense increased slightly to $7.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $7.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. This increase was primarily due to employee costs.

Three months ended March 31, 2018 versus three months ended March 31, 2017
Revenue
Revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2018, increased to $45.1 million from $36.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This increase is primarily due to higher operating cost recoveries, higher gathering and processing revenue and foreign exchange gains of $3.6 million, $1.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
Additionally, subsequent to the adoption of ASC 606, we recognized $1.3 million of revenue for recognition of certain deficiencies on take-or-pay agreements for which there is a contractual make-up period. Under ASC 605, revenue related to deficiencies with a make-up period was deferred until the contractual right to make up a deficiency expired. Under ASC 606, we can recognize all or a portion of revenue related to deficiencies before the make-up period expires if we determine that it is probable that the customer will not make-up all or some of its deficient volumes, for example if there is insufficient capacity to make up the deficient volumes in future periods.
Operating expense
Operating expense increased in the three months ended March 31, 2018, to $22.9 million from $19.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This increase is primarily due to higher costs for contract labor, foreign exchange losses and higher costs for greenhouse gas credit purchases, partially offset by lower compensation costs.

Corporate and Other is not an operating segment. This table is included to permit the reconciliation of segment information to that of the consolidated Company. Product sales and cost of sales primarily related to our Mexican asphalt business which was sold on March 15, 2018. Storage fees and services fees primarily relate to our U.K. operations which were sold on April 12, 2018. Operating expenses relate to the Mexican asphalt business and U.K. operations. Earnings from equity method investments relate to our general partner interest in NGL Energy.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources and Uses of Cash
Our principal sources of short-term liquidity are cash generated from our operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facilities. The consolidated cash balance on March 31, 2018, was $285.5 million. Of this amount, $25.6 million was held in Canada and portions may be subject to tax if transferred to the U.S. Potential sources of long-term liquidity include issuances of debt securities and equity securities and the sale of assets. Our primary cash requirements currently are operating expenses, capital expenditures, debt payments and our quarterly dividends. In general, we expect to fund:
operating expenses, maintenance capital expenditures and cash dividends through existing cash and cash from operating activities;
expansion capital expenditures and any working capital deficits through cash on hand, borrowings under our credit facilities and the issuance of debt securities and equity securities;
acquisitions through cash on hand, borrowings under our credit facilities, the issuance of debt securities and equity securities and proceeds from the divestiture of assets or interests in assets; and
debt principal payments through cash from operating activities and refinancing when the credit facility becomes due.
Our ability to meet our financing requirements and fund our planned capital expenditures will depend on our future operating performance and distributions from our equity investments, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in our industry. In addition, we are subject to conditions in the debt and equity markets for any issuances of debt securities and equity securities. There can be no assurance we will be able or willing to access the public or private markets in the future. If we would be unable or unwilling to access those markets, we could be required to restrict future cash outlays, such as expansion capital expenditures and potential future acquisitions.

Page 43


We believe our cash from operations, our remaining borrowing capacity and other capital markets activity allow us to manage our day-to-day cash requirements, distribute our quarterly dividends and meet our capital expenditures commitments for the coming year.

Adjustments to net loss for non-cash expenses, net increased $12.9 million to $64.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, from $51.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This change is primarily a result of:
$25.9 million in depreciation and amortization expense, primarily as a result of the acquisition of HFOTCO and completion of the Maurepas Pipeline;
$4.5 million reduction in earnings from equity method investments due to lower White Cliffs earnings and the prior year divestiture of our investment in Glass Mountain Pipeline;
$3.3 million in currency exchange losses in the current year primarily due to foreign currency forwards to purchase Canadian dollars to limit exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations for capital contributions to our Canadian operations; and
$10.7 million change in deferred income tax expense (benefit).
These increases to the adjustments to net income for non-cash expenses, net were offset by decreases due to:
$19.9 million decrease related to a prior year loss on early extinguishment of $300 million of senior unsecured notes;
$6.0 million increase in gains on disposal or impairments, net, primarily due to current year gain on the disposal of our Mexican asphalt business as compared to prior year losses;
$4.7 million in distributions from equity investments due to our prior year disposal of our investment in Glass Mountain Pipeline;

Page 44


All other adjustments to net income for non-cash expenses, net for the three months ended March 31, 2018, remained relatively comparable to the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Changes in operating assets and liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2018, generated a net increase in operating cash flows of $52.5 million. The increase to operating cash flow due to the change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily a result of a decrease in assets related to accounts receivable, inventories, receivables from affiliates and other assets of $122.8 million, $25.2 million, $0.8 million, and $0.8 million, respectively, offset by an increase in other current assets of $3.7 million. Liabilities decreased $104.9 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $4.7 million in payables to affiliates, offset by an increase in other noncurrent liabilities of $16.1 million. The increase in other noncurrent liabilities is primarily due to the accretion of the final payment related to the HFOTCO acquisition. Changes in receivables, inventory, payables and accrued liabilities are primarily due to our segments’ operating activities and are subject to the timing of purchases and sales and fluctuations in commodity pricing.
Changes in operating assets and liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2017, generated a net decrease in operating cash flows of $12.9 million. The decrease to operating cash flow due to the change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily a result of an increase of $55.2 million in accounts receivable and $40.5 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and a $2.4 million increase in inventories and decreases in receivables from affiliates of $12.5 million and payables to affiliates of $9.4 million, offset by an increase in non-current liabilities of $1.0 million. Changes in receivables, inventory, payables and accrued liabilities are primarily due to our segments’ operating activities and are subject to the timing of purchases and sales and fluctuations in commodity prices.
Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we had net cash outflows of $61.7 million from investing activities, due primarily to $131.8 million in capital expenditures and $0.3 million of contributions to equity method investments. These cash outflows were offset by investing cash inflows of $63.8 million in proceeds from the sale of our Mexican asphalt business and $6.5 million of distributions in excess of equity in earnings of affiliates. Capital expenditures primarily related to expansion projects at our SemCAMS and HFOTCO segments. Distributions in excess of equity in earnings of affiliates represent cash distributions from White Cliffs in excess of our cumulative equity in earnings and are accounted for as a return of investment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we had net cash outflows of $74.8 million from investing activities, due primarily to $92.2 million of capital expenditures and $2.5 million of contributions to equity method investments, offset by investing cash inflows of $15.5 million in proceeds from the sale of long-lived assets and $4.4 million of distributions in excess of equity in earnings of affiliates. Capital expenditures primarily related to the Maurepas Pipeline. Distributions in excess of equity in earnings of affiliates represent cash distributions from White Cliffs and Glass Mountain in excess of our cumulative equity in earnings and are accounted for as a return of investment.
Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we had net cash inflows of $170.1 million from financing activities, which related to proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock, net of offering costs, of $342.4 million, offset by principal payments on credit facilities and other obligations of $134.2 million, dividends paid of $37.2 million and debt issuance costs of $0.5 million.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we had net cash inflows of $37.2 million from financing activities, which related to borrowings on credit facilities and the issuance of senior unsecured notes of $437.0 million, offset by principal payments on credit facilities and other obligations of $348.3 million, dividends paid of $29.8 million, debt extinguishment costs of $16.3 million, debt issuance costs of $4.6 million and $1.0 million to repurchase common stock for payment of statutory taxes due on equity-based compensation. Net borrowings were used primarily to extinguish senior unsecured notes and for capital expenditures. Debt issuance costs related to the issuance of senior unsecured notes.
Long-term Debt
Senior Unsecured Notes
At March 31, 2018, we had outstanding $400 million of 5.625% senior unsecured notes due 2022, $350 million of 5.625% senior unsecured notes due 2023, $325 million of 6.375% senior unsecured notes due 2025 and $300 million of 7.25% senior unsecured notes due 2026.
SemGroup Revolving Credit Facility
At March 31, 2018, we had no cash borrowings outstanding under our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility. We had $39.4 million in outstanding letters of credit on that date. The maximum letter of credit capacity under this facility is

Page 45


$250 million. The facility can be increased up to $300 million. The credit agreement expires on March 15, 2021.
At March 31, 2018, we had available borrowing capacity of $960.6 million under this facility.
HFOTCO long-term debt
At March 31, 2018, HFOTCO had $60 million of cash borrowings outstanding under its $75 million revolving credit facility, $530.8 million outstanding under its Term Loan B and $225 million outstanding of tax exempt notes payable due 2050. The revolving credit facility matures on August 19, 2019. HFOTCO’s term loan B is due in quarterly installments of $1.4 million with a final payment due on August 19, 2021.
HFOTCO acquisition final payment
At March 31, 2018, SemGroup had $578.4 million of long-term debt associated with the final payment related to the HFOTCO acquisition. On April 17, 2018, we made the final payment related to the HFOTCO acquisition in the amount of $579.6 million. The payment was funded through revolving credit facility borrowings and cash on hand.
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
On January 19, 2018, we sold to certain institutional investors, in a private placement, an aggregate of 350,000 shares of our Series A Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), convertible into 10,606,061 shares (subject to adjustment) of our Class A common stock, for a cash purchase price of $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock and aggregate gross proceeds to us of $350 million. These proceeds will be used to repay amounts borrowed under our credit agreement, to fund growth capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. Holders of the Preferred Stock (the “Holders”) will receive quarterly distributions equal to an annual rate of 7.0% ($70.00 per share annualized) of $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock, subject to certain adjustments (the “Liquidation Preference”). With respect to any quarter ending on or prior to June 30, 2020, we may elect, in lieu of paying a distribution in cash, to have the amount that would have been payable if such dividend had been paid in cash added to the Liquidation Preference. On or after the eighteen month anniversary of January 19, 2018, the Holders may convert their shares of Preferred Stock into a number of shares of our Class A common stock equal to, per preferred share, the quotient of the Liquidation Preference divided by $33.00, subject to certain adjustments including customary anti-dilution adjustments. On or after January 19, 2021, if the Holders have not elected to convert all of their shares of Preferred Stock, we may cause, under certain circumstances, the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to be converted into shares of our Class A common stock. Holders are entitled to vote on all matters on which the holders of shares of our Class A common stock are entitled to vote and will, in general, vote together with the holders of shares of our Class A common stock as a single class. Each Holder shall be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of votes such Holder would have had if all shares of Preferred Stock held by such Holder had been converted into shares of our Class A common stock.
Shelf Registration Statement
We have access to a universal shelf registration statement which provides us the ability to offer and sell an unlimited amount of debt and equity securities, subject to market conditions and our capital needs. This shelf registration statement expires in March 2019.
We have also established an “at the market” offering program under this shelf registration statement, which provides for the offer and sale, from time to time, of common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $300 million. We are able to make sales over a period of time and from time to time in transactions at prices which are prevailing market prices at the time of sale, prices related to market prices or at negotiated prices. Such sales may be made pursuant to an Equity Distribution Agreement between us and certain agents who may act as sales agents or purchase for their own accounts as principals. To date, there have been no such sales.
Capital Requirements
The midstream energy business can be capital intensive, requiring significant investment for the maintenance of existing assets or acquisition or development of new systems and facilities. We categorize our capital expenditures as either:
expansion capital expenditures, which are cash expenditures incurred for acquisitions or capital improvements that we expect will increase our operating income or operating capacity over the long-term; or
maintenance capital expenditures, which are cash expenditures (including expenditures for the addition or improvement to, or the replacement of, our capital assets or for the acquisition of existing, or the construction or development of new, capital assets) made to maintain our long-term operating income or operating capacity.

Page 46


Projected capital expenditures for 2018 are estimated at $310 million in expansion projects, including capital contributions to affiliates for funding growth projects and acquisitions, and $40 million in maintenance projects. These estimates may change as future events unfold. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we spent $131.8 million (cash basis) on capital projects and $0.3 million in capital contributions to equity method investees.
In addition to our budgeted capital program, we anticipate that we will continue to make significant expansion capital expenditures in the future. Consequently, our ability to develop and maintain sources of funds to meet our capital requirements is critical to our ability to meet our growth objectives. We expect that our future expansion capital expenditures will be funded by cash from operations, borrowings under our credit facilities, the issuance of debt and equity securities and proceeds from the divestiture of assets or interests in assets.

Preferred Stock Dividends
On May 1, 2018, we declared a paid-in-kind dividend of $4.8 million, which has been prorated for the period from January 19, 2018 to March 31, 2018. The dividend will be paid on May 25, 2018. Paid-in-kind dividends increase the Liquidation Preference.
Credit Risk
We are subject to risks of loss resulting from nonpayment or nonperformance by our customers. We examine the creditworthiness of third-party customers to whom we extend credit and manage our exposure to credit risk through credit analysis, credit approval, credit limits and monitoring procedures, and for certain transactions, we may request letters of credit, prepayments or guarantees.
Customer Concentration
Shell Trading (US) Company, a customer of our Crude Supply and Logistics segment, accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018, at approximately 36%. The contracts from which our revenues are derived from this customer relate to our crude marketing operations and are for crude oil purchases and sales at market prices. We are not substantially dependent on such contracts and believe that if we were to lose any or all of these contracts, they could be readily replaced under substantially similar terms. Although we have contracts with customers of varying durations, if one or more of our major customers were to default on their contract, or if we were unable to renew our contract with one or more of these customers on favorable terms, we might not be able to replace any of these customers in a timely fashion, on favorable terms or at all. In any of these situations, our revenues and our ability to pay cash dividends to our stockholders may be adversely affected. We expect our exposure to risk of non-payment or non-performance to continue as long as we remain substantially dependent on a relatively small number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenues.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined by Item 303 of Regulation S-K.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
This discussion on market risks represents an estimate of possible changes in future earnings that would occur assuming hypothetical future movements in commodity prices, interest rates and currency exchange rates. Our views on market risk are not necessarily indicative of actual results that may occur, and do not represent the maximum possible gains and losses that may occur since actual gains and losses will differ from those estimated based on actual fluctuations in commodity prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and the timing of transactions.
We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in (i) petroleum prices, particularly crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, (ii) interest rates and (iii) currency exchange rates. We may use from time-to-time various derivative instruments to manage such exposure. Our risk management policies and procedures are designed to monitor physical and financial commodity positions and the resulting outright commodity price risk as well as basis risk resulting from differences in commodity grades, purchase and sale locations and purchase and sale timing. We have a risk management function that has responsibility and authority for our Risk Governance Policies, which govern our enterprise-wide risks, including the market risks discussed in this item. Subject to our Risk Governance Policies, our finance and treasury function has responsibility and authority for managing exposure to interest rates and currency exchange rates. To manage the risks discussed above, we engage in price risk management activities.

Revenue from our asset-based activities is dependent on throughput volume, tariff rates, the level of fees generated from our pipeline systems, capacity leased to third parties, capacity that we use for our own operational or marketing activities and the level of other fees generated at our terminalling and storage facilities. Profit from our marketing activities is dependent on our ability to sell petroleum products at prices in excess of our aggregate cost. Margins may be affected during transitional periods between a backwardated market (when the prices for future deliveries are lower than the current prices) and a contango market (when the prices for future deliveries are higher than the current prices). Our petroleum product marketing activities within each of our segments are generally not directly affected by the absolute level of petroleum product prices, but are affected by overall levels of supply and demand for petroleum products and relative fluctuations in market-related indices at various locations.
However, the SemGas segment has exposure to commodity price risk because of the nature of certain contracts for which our fee is based on a percentage of proceeds or index related to the prices of natural gas, natural gas liquids and condensate. Given current volumes, liquid recoveries and contract terms, we estimate the following sensitivities over the next twelve months:

Page 50


A 10% increase in the price of natural gas and natural gas liquids results in approximately a $2.9 million increase to gross margin.
A 10% decrease in those prices would have the opposite effect.
The above sensitivities may be impacted by changes in contract mix, change in production or other factors which are outside of our control.
Additionally, based on our open derivative contracts at March 31, 2018, an increase in the applicable market price or prices for each derivative contract would result in a decrease in our crude oil sales revenues. Likewise, a decrease in the applicable market price or prices for each derivative contract would result in an increase in our crude oil sales revenues. However, the increases or decreases in crude oil sales revenues we recognize from our open derivative contracts are substantially offset by higher or lower crude oil sales revenues when the physical sale of the product occurs. These contracts may be for the purchase or sale of crude oil or in markets different from the physical markets in which we are attempting to hedge our exposure, or may have timing differences relative to the physical markets. As a result of these factors, our hedges may not eliminate all price risks.
The notional volumes and fair value of our commodity derivatives open positions as well as the change in fair value that would be expected from a 10% market price increase or decrease is shown in the table below (in thousands):

Margin deposits or other credit support, including letters of credit, are generally required on derivative instruments used to manage our price exposure. As commodity prices increase or decrease, the fair value of our derivative instruments changes, thereby increasing or decreasing our margin deposit or other credit support requirements. Although a component of our risk-management strategy is intended to manage the margin and other credit support requirements on our derivative instruments, volatile spot and forward commodity prices, or an expectation of increased commodity price volatility, could increase the cash needed to manage our commodity price exposure and thereby increase our liquidity requirements. This may limit amounts available to us through borrowing, decrease the volume of petroleum products we purchase and sell or limit our commodity price management activities.
Interest Rate Risk
We use variable rate debt and are exposed to market risk due to the floating interest rates on our credit facilities. Therefore, from time-to-time we may use interest rate derivatives to manage interest obligations on specific debt issuances. Our variable rate debt bears interest at LIBOR or prime, subject to certain floors, plus the applicable margin. At March 31, 2018, an increase in these base rates of 1%, above the base rate floors, would increase our interest expense by $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Increases in interest expense due to an increase in interest rates as presented above, would have been partially offset by a $1.0 million reduction in interest expense from interest rate swaps, discussed below, in each period.
The average interest rates presented below are based upon rates in effect at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The carrying value of the variable rate instruments in our credit facilities approximate fair value primarily because our rates fluctuate with prevailing market rates.
The following table summarizes our debt obligations:

Debt obligations above exclude the final payment related to the HFOTCO acquisition, which was made on April 17, 2018.
In conjunction with the HFOTCO acquisition, we acquired HFOTCO’s interest rate swaps. The swaps allow us to limit exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The swaps only apply to a portion of our outstanding debt and provide only partial mitigation of interest rate fluctuations. We have not designated the swaps as hedges, as such changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded through current period earnings as a component of interest expense. At March 31, 2018, we had interest rate swaps with notional values of $490.4 million. At March 31, 2018, the fair value of our interest rate swaps was $0.1 million which was reported within “other current assets” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized unrealized gains of $1.1 million related to interest rate swaps.
Currency Exchange Risk
The cash flows related to our U.K., Canada and Mexico operations are based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of such amounts measured in British pounds, Canadian dollars and Mexican pesos. Assets and liabilities of our U.K., Canadian and Mexican subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate as of the end of a reporting period. Revenue, expenses and cash flows are translated using the average exchange rate during the reporting period.
A 10% change in the average exchange rate during the three months ended March 31, 2018, would change operating income by $35 thousand.
In the first quarter of 2018 and the fourth quarter of 2017, we entered into foreign currency forwards to purchase Canadian dollars to limit exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations for capital contributions to our Canadian operations. In the first quarter of 2018, we entered into a foreign currency forward to sell British pounds to limit exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations in relation to the sale of our U.K. operations. We have not designated the forwards as hedges, as such changes in the fair value of the forwards are recorded through current period earnings as a component of foreign currency translation gain/loss. At March 31, 2018, we had foreign currency forwards with notional values of $148.7 million. At March 31, 2018, the fair value of our foreign currency swaps was $1.8 million, which is reported within “other current liabilities” and “other noncurrent liabilities” in our consolidated balance sheet. For the quarter ended March 31, 2018, we recognized unrealized losses of $4.4 million related to foreign currency forwards. The foreign currency forwards have maturities through June 2019.
A 1% increase in the USD/CAD and GBP/USD foreign exchange rates would lead to a $1.8 million loss and in the event of a 1% decrease in the USD/CAD and GBP/USD foreign exchange rates a $4.0 million loss based on the exchange rates at March 31, 2018.
