10.Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
We have at various points and may in the future become involved in various legal proceedings arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. These proceedings would be subject to the uncertainties inherent in any litigation, and we regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. We would expect to defend ourselves vigorously in all such matters. Based on currently available information, we believe it is unlikely that the outcome of known matters would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

11.Income Tax Expense
As a partnership, we are generally not subject to federal income tax and most state income taxes. However, the Partnership conducts certain activities through corporate subsidiaries which are subject to federal and state income taxes.
Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to Partnership earnings that are not subject to U.S. federal and most state income taxes at the Partnership level. A reconciliation of income tax expense from continuing operations at the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% to net income tax expense is as follows:

Allocation of Net Income
Our Partnership Agreement contains provisions for the allocation of net income and loss to the unitholders. For purposes of maintaining partner capital accounts, the Partnership Agreement specifies that items of income and loss shall be allocated among the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interest. Normal allocations according to percentage interests are made after giving effect to incentive cash distributions, which are allocated 100% to Energy Transfer.

13.Segment Reporting
Our consolidated financial statements reflect two reportable segments, Fuel Distribution and Marketing and All Other.
We report Adjusted EBITDA by segment as a measure of segment performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before net interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, non-cash unit-based compensation expense, gains and losses on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives, inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations. Inventory adjustments that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represent changes in lower of cost or market reserves on the Partnership's inventory. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period.

In addition to distributing motor fuel, we also distribute other petroleum products such as propane and lubricating oil.
We purchase motor fuel primarily from independent refiners and major oil companies and distribute it across approximatelymore than 40 states and territories throughout the East Coast, Midwest, South Central and Southeast regions of the United States, as well as Hawaii and Puerto Rico, to:
7776 company-owned and operated retail stores;
515501 independently operated commission agent locations where we sell motor fuel to retail customers under commission arrangements with such operators;
6,7546,904 retail stores operated by independent operators, which we refer to as “dealers” or “distributors,” pursuant to long-term distribution agreements; and
2,857approximately 1,600 other commercial customers, including unbranded retail stores, other fuel distributors, school districts, municipalities and other industrial customers.
Our retail stores operate under several brands, including our proprietary brands APlus and Aloha Island Mart, and offer a broad selection of food, beverages, snacks, grocery and non-food merchandise, motor fuels and other services.
Recent Developments
On October 28, 2022, we executed a definitive agreement to acquire Peerless Oil & Chemicals, Inc. ("Peerless") for $70 million, subject to customary working capital adjustments. Peerless is an established terminal operator that distributes fuel products to over 100 locations within Puerto Rico and throughout the Caribbean.

Recent Developments
On May 1, 2023, the Partnership completed the acquisition of 16 refined product terminals located across the East Coast and Midwest from Zenith Energy for $110 million. The Partnership expects the acquisition to be accretive to unitholders in the first year of ownership.
Key Measures Used to Evaluate and Assess Our Business
Management uses a variety of financial measurements to analyze business performance, including the following key measures:
Motor fuel gallons sold. One of the primary drivers of our business is the total volume of motor fuel sold through our channels. Fuel distribution contracts with our customers generally provide that we distribute motor fuel at a fixed, volume-based profit margin or at an agreed upon level of price support. As a result, profit is directly tied to the volume of motor fuel that we distribute. Total motor fuel profit dollars earned from the product of profit per gallon and motor fuel gallons sold are used by management to evaluate business performance.
Profit per gallon. Profit per gallon is calculated as the profit on motor fuel (excluding non-cash inventory adjustments as described under "Adjusted EBITDA" below) divided by the number of gallons sold, and is typically expressed as cents per gallon. Our profit per gallon varies amongst our third-party relationships and is impacted by the availability of certain discounts and rebates from suppliers. Retail profit per gallon is heavily impacted by volatile pricing and intense competition from retail stores, supermarkets, club stores and other retail formats, which varies based on the market.
Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA, as used throughout this document, is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, allocated non-cash unit-based compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations, such as gain or loss on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges. Inventory adjustments that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represent changes in lower of cost or market reserves on the Partnership's inventory. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, read “Key Operating Metrics and Results of Operations” below.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because:
Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance measure under our revolving credit facility;
securities analysts and other interested parties use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial performance; and
our management uses Adjusted EBITDA for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget and capital expenditures.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and one should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include:
it does not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our revolving credit facility or senior notes;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and
as not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for the unconsolidated affiliateaffiliates based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliate.affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliateaffiliates excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliateaffiliates as those excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate,affiliates, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliate.affiliates. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliate;affiliates; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliate.affiliates. The use of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliateaffiliates as an analytical tool should be limited accordingly.

The following discussion ofcompares the results compares theof operations for the three months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 2021.2022.
Adjusted EBITDA. Net Income and Comprehensive Income.Adjusted EBITDA for For the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $276 million, an increaseMarch 31, 2023 compared to the same period last year, net income and comprehensive income decreased primarily due to the impacts of $78 million fromfavorable inventory adjustments in the prior period, as discussed further below.
Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is primarily attributableMarch 31, 2023 compared to the following changes:same period last year, Adjusted EBITDA increased primarily due to the net impacts of the following:
an increase in the gross profit on motor fuel sales of $75$24 million, primarily due to a 23.6%4% increase in profit per gallon sold and a 0.8%9% increase in gallons sold; and
an increase in non motornon-motor fuel grosssales and lease profit of $22$8 million, primarily due to an increase in storage tanksincreased rental income and terminals gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily a result of the 2021 fourth quarter acquisition of refined product terminals. In addition, increased credit card transactions andhigher merchandise gross profit contributed $4 million to the overall increase;profit; partially offset by
a decrease of $1 million in Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate, which was attributable to the joint venture on the J.C. Nolan diesel fuel pipeline to West Texas; and
an increase in operating costs of $18 million. These expenses include$3 million, including other operating expense, general and administrative expense and lease expense. The increase wasexpense, primarily due to higher costs as a result of recent acquisitions of refined product terminals and the transmix processing and terminal facility, higher employee costs, insurance costs and credit card processing fees.
Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion. Depreciation, amortization and accretion was $55 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $45 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase is primarily due to the recent acquisitions of refined product terminals and the transmix processing and terminal facility.
Interest Expense, net. . Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $49 million, an increase of $9 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in average total long-term debt and increase in the weighted average interest rate on long-term debt for the respective periods.
18


Gain on Disposal of Assets. Gains on disposals of assets reflect the difference between the net book value of disposed assets and the proceeds received upon disposal of those assets. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, proceeds from disposals of property and equipment were $7 million and $13 million, respectively.March 31, 2023 compared to the same period last year, interest expense increased primarily due to higher interest rates on floating rate debt.
Unrealized (Gain) Loss on Commodity Derivatives. The unrealized gains and losses on our commodity derivatives represent the changes in fair value of our commodity derivatives. The change in unrealized gains and losses between periods is impacted by the notional amounts and commodity price changes on our commodity derivatives. Additional information on commodity derivatives is included in “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” below.
Inventory Adjustments. Inventory adjustments represent changes in lower of cost or market reserves using the last-in-first-out ("LIFO") method on the Partnership’s inventory. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease in fuel prices increased lower of cost or market reserve requirements for the period by $40 million, creating an adverse impact to net income. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase in fuel prices reduced lower of cost or market reserve requirements for the period by $9 million, creating a favorable impact to net income.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense for three months ended September 30, 2022 was $19 million, an increase of $9 million from income tax expense of $10 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase is primarily attributable to higher earnings from the Partnership's consolidated corporate subsidiaries in 2022.

The following discussion of results compares the operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $681 million, an increase of $125 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is primarily attributable to the following changes:
an increase in the gross profit on motor fuel sales of $126 million, primarily due to a 17.3% increase in gross profit per gallon sold and a 1.4% increase in gallons sold; and
an increase in non motor fuel gross profit of $67 million, primarily due to an increase in storage tanks and terminals gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily a result of the 2021 fourth quarter acquisition of refined product terminals. In addition, increased credit card transactions and merchandise gross profit contributed $15 million to the overall increase; partially offset by
an increase in operating costs of $68 million. These expenses include other operating expense, general and administrative expense and lease expense. The increase was primarily due to higher costs as a result of the recent acquisitions of refined product terminals and the transmix processing and terminal facility, higher employee costs, credit card processing fees, utilities costs, maintenance costs and insurance costs.
Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion. Depreciation, amortization and accretion was $151 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and $135 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This increase is primarily due to the recent acquisitions of refined product terminals and the transmix processing and terminal facility.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $135 million, an increase of $11 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in average total long-term debt and increase in the weighted average interest rate on long-term debt for the respective periods.
Gain on Disposal of Assets. Gains on disposals of assets reflect the difference between the net book value of disposed assets and the proceeds received upon disposal of those assets. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, proceeds from disposals of property and equipment were $18 million and $27 million, respectively.

Unrealized Gain (loss) on Commodity Derivatives. The unrealized gains and losses on our commodity derivatives represent the changes in fair value of our commodity derivatives. The change in unrealized gains and losses between periods is impacted by the notional amounts and commodity price changes on our commodity derivatives. Additional information on commodity derivatives is included in “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” below.
Inventory Adjustments. Inventory adjustments represent changes in lower of cost or market reserves on the Partnership’s inventory. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase in fuel prices reduced lower of cost or market reserve requirements for the periodperiods by $81$29 million creating a favorable impact to net income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase in fuel prices reduced lower of cost or market reserve requirements for the period by $168and $120 million, respectively, creating a favorable impact to net income.

Income tax expense for For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022 was $30 million, an increase of $9 million fromMarch 31, 2023 compared to the same period last year, income tax expense of $21 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This increase isincreased primarily attributabledue to higher earnings from the Partnership's consolidated corporate subsidiaries in 2022.subsidiaries.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our principal liquidity requirements are to finance current operations, to fund capital expenditures, including acquisitions from time to time, to service our debt and to make distributions. We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and the issuance of additional long-term debt or partnership units as appropriate given market conditions. We expect that these sources of funds will be adequate to provide for our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.
18

Table of Contents
Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and other capital requirements, including capital expenditures and acquisitions, will depend on our future operating performance which, in turn, will be subject to general economic, financial, business, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, many of which are beyond our control. As a normal part of our business, depending on market conditions, we will from time to time consider opportunities to repay, redeem, repurchase or refinance our indebtedness. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions or other events may cause us to seek additional debt or equity financing in future periods. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Debt financing, if available, could impose additional cash payment obligations and additional covenants and operating restrictions. In addition, any of the risks described or referenced under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” herein, including the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 may also significantly impact our liquidity.
As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we had $196$189 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and borrowing capacity of $0.8 billion$693 million under the Partnership's Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement withamong the Partnership, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swingline Lenderadministrative agent, collateral agent, swingline lender and a line of credit issuer (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility amended and restated the former revolving credit facility entered into on July 27, 2018. The Partnership was in compliance with all financial covenants at September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. Based on our current estimates, we expect to utilize capacity under the Credit Facility, along with cash from operations, to fund our announced growth capital expenditures and working capital needs for 2022;2023; however, we may issue debt or equity securities prior to that time as we deem prudent to provide liquidity for new capital projects or other partnership purposes.
Cash Flows
    Our cash flows may change in the future due to a number of factors, some of which we cannot control. These factors include regulatory changes, the price of products and services, the demand for such products and services, margin requirements resulting from significant changes in commodity prices, operational risks, the successful integration of our acquisitions and other factors.

Operating Activities
    Changes in cash flows from operating activities between periods primarily result from changes in earnings, excluding the impacts of non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities (net of effects of acquisitions). Non-cash items include recurring non-cash expenses, such as depreciation, amortization and accretion expense and non-cash unit-based compensation expense. Cash flows from operating activities also differ from earnings as a result of non-cash charges that may not be recurring, such as impairment charges. Our daily working capital requirements fluctuate within each month, primarily in response to the timing of payments for motor fuels, motor fuels tax and rent.
NineThree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 compared to ninethree months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. Net cash provided by operations was $640$326 million and $512$23 million for the ninethree months of 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively. The increase in cash flows provided by operations was due to an increase in net cash flow from operating assets and liabilities of $323 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 and partially offset by a $128$20 million increasedecrease in cash basis net income compared to the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.
Investing Activities
    Cash flows from investing activities primarily consist of capital expenditures, cash contributions to unconsolidated affiliate,affiliates, cash amounts paid for acquisitions, and cash proceeds from sale or disposal of assets. Changes in capital expenditures between periods primarily result from increases or decreases in our growth capital expenditures to fund our construction and expansion projects.
NineThree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 compared to ninethree months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. Net cash used in investing activities was $326$31 million and $65$285 million for the first ninethree months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Capital expenditures were $37 million and 2021,$26 million for the first three months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 included the $252payment of a $264 million payment, net of cash acquireddeposit for thea transmix processing and terminal facility acquisition completed in April 2022. Capital expenditures were $97 million and $92 million for the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Distributions from unconsolidated affiliateaffiliates in excess of cumulative earnings were $5$3 million and $6$1 million for the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively. Proceeds from disposal of property and equipment were $18$3 million and $27$4 million for the first ninethree months of 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively.
Financing Activities
    Changes in cash flows from financing activities between periods primarily result from changes in the levels of borrowings and equity issuances, which are primarily used to fund our acquisitions and growth capital expenditures. Distributions increase between the periods based on increases in the number of common units outstanding or increases in the distribution rate.

We periodically enter into derivatives, such as futures and options, to manage our fuel price risk on inventory in the distribution system. Fuel hedging positions are not significant to our operations. On a consolidated basis, the Partnership had a position of 1.82.2 million barrels with an aggregated fair valueunrealized gain of $5.5$1.3 million outstanding at September 30, 2022.
Properties. Most of our leases are net leases requiring us to pay taxes, insurance and maintenance costs. We believe that no individual leased site is material to us.March 31, 2023.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The Partnership's critical accounting estimates are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022. No significant changes have occurred subsequent to the Form 10-K filing.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on our financing, investing and cash management activities. We had $704$800 million of outstanding borrowings on the Credit Facility as of September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. The annualized effect of a one percentage point change in floating interest rates on our variable rate debt obligations outstanding at September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 would be a $7.0an $8.0 million change to interest expense. Our primary exposure relates to:
interest rate risk on short-term borrowings; and
the impact of interest rate movements on our ability to obtain adequate financing to fund future acquisitions.
23


While we cannot predict or manage our ability to refinance existing debt or the impact interest rate movements will have on our existing debt, management evaluates our financial position on an ongoing basis. From time to time, we may enter into interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our floating rate debt. We had no interest rate swaps in effect during the first ninethree months of 20222023 or 2021.2022.
Commodity Price Risk
Our subsidiaries hold working inventories of refined petroleum products, renewable fuels, gasoline blendstocks and transmix in storage. As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we held approximately $660$681 million of such inventory. While in storage, volatility in the market price of stored motor fuel could adversely impact the price at which we can later sell the motor fuel. However, we may use futures, forwards and other derivative instruments (collectively, "positions") to hedge a variety of price risks relating to deviations in that inventory from a target base operating level established by management. Derivative instruments utilized consist primarily of exchange-traded futures contracts traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange, Chicago Mercantile Exchange and Intercontinental Exchange as well as over-the-counter transactions (including swap agreements) entered into with established financial institutions and other credit-approved energy companies. Our policy is generally to purchase only products for which there is a market and to structure sales contracts so that price fluctuations do not materially affect profit. While these derivative instruments represent economic hedges, they are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. We may also engage in controlled trading in accordance with specific parameters set forth in a written risk management policy.
On a consolidated basis, the Partnership had a position of 1.82.2 million barrels with an aggregate fair valueunrealized gain of $5.5$1.3 million outstanding at September 30, 2022.March 31, 2023.
