Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Unaudited


1.	Organization and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are composed of Susser Petroleum Partners LP (the "Partnership", "SUSP", "we", "us" or "our"), a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, and its consolidated subsidiaries, which distribute motor fuels in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Louisiana. SUSP was formed in June 2012 by Susser Holdings Corporation (“SUSS” or the “Parent”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Susser Petroleum Partners GP LLC, our general partner. On September 25, 2012, we completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) of 10,925,000 common units representing limited partner interests.

The information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains the unaudited consolidated financial results of Susser Petroleum Company LLC (“Predecessor” or "SPC"), our Predecessor for accounting purposes, for periods presented through June 30, 2012.

In connection with the IPO and pursuant to the Contribution Agreement between the Partnership, the general partner, SUSS, Stripes LLC, Susser Holdings LLC and SPC (the "Contribution Agreement"), the following transactions occurred:


•	SUSS contributed to Susser Petroleum Operating Company LLC (“SPOC”) substantially all of its wholesale motor fuel distribution business, other than its motor fuel consignment business and transportation assets, which included:

•marketer, distributor and supply agreements,

•fuel supply agreements to distribute motor fuel to convenience stores and other retail fuel outlets,

•real property owned in fee and personal property,

•leases and subleases under which it was a tenant, and

•leases and subleases under which it was a landlord.


•	SPC contributed its membership interests in T&C Wholesale LLC to SPOC.


•	SPC contributed its interest in SPOC to the Partnership in exchange for 14,436 common units representing a 0.07% limited partner interest in the Partnership, 10,939,436 subordinated units representing a 50% limited partner interest in the Partnership and all of the incentive distribution rights of the Partnership.

All of the contributed Predecessor assets and liabilities were recorded at historical cost as this transaction was considered to be a reorganization of entities under common control.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership and all of its subsidiaries. The Partnership operates in one operating segment, with primary operations conducted by the following consolidated wholly owned subsidiaries:


•	Susser Petroleum Operating Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, distributes motor fuel to SUSS' retail and consignment locations, as well as third party customers in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Louisiana.


•	T&C Wholesale LLC ("TCW"), a Texas limited liability company, distributes motor fuels, propane and lubricating oils, primarily in Texas.


•	Susser Petroleum Property Company LLC (“PropCo”), a Delaware limited liability company, formed to, among other things, own and lease convenience store properties.

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

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the accounting records of the Partnership and its subsidiaries, and all amounts at June 30, 2013 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2013 are unaudited. Pursuant to Regulation S-X, certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The information furnished reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented and which are of a normal, recurring nature.

The consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on March 29, 2013.


2.	Initial Public Offering

On September 20, 2012, the Partnership’s public common units began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “SUSP”. On September 25, 2012, we completed the IPO of 10,925,000 common units at a price of $20.50 per unit.

Property and equipment was contributed by SUSS and its subsidiaries in exchange for:


•	14,436 common units and 10,939,436 subordinated units, representing an aggregate 50.1% limited partner interest in SUSP;


•	All of the incentive distribution rights (as discussed in SUSP's partnership agreement); and


•	An aggregate cash distribution of $206.0 million.

We received net proceeds of $206.2 million from the sale of 10,925,000 units, net of related offering expenses. Additionally, we entered into a term loan and security agreement (“SUSP Term Loan”) in which we borrowed $180.7 million and entered into a $250.0 million revolving credit agreement (“SUSP Revolver”), which together are guaranteed by SUSS in a maximum aggregate amount of $180.7 million. See Note 8 for additional information regarding our credit and term loan facilities.


3.	New Accounting Pronouncements

FASB ASU No. 2012-02. In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other." This guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The adoption of this guidance affected our impairment steps only but did not have an effect on our results of operations, cash flows or related disclosures.


4.	Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable, excluding receivables from affiliates, consisted of the following:



	December 31, 2012			June 30, 2013
	(in thousands)

Property and equipment, net	$	68,173		$	123,251


7.	Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The annual impairment test is performed as of the first day of the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. At December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013, we had $12.9 million of goodwill recorded in conjunction with past business combinations. The 2012 impairment analysis indicated no impairment in goodwill. As of June 30, 2013, we evaluated potential impairment indicators and we believe no indicators of impairment occurred during the second quarter of 2013, and we believe the assumptions used in the analysis performed in 2012 are still relevant and indicative of our current operating environment. As a result, no impairment was recorded to goodwill during the first six months of 2013.

The Partnership has finite‑lived intangible assets recorded that are amortized. The finite‑lived assets consist of supply agreements, favorable/unfavorable leasehold arrangements and loan origination costs, all of which are amortized over the respective lives of the agreements or over the period of time the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the Partnership's future cash flows. Supply agreements are being amortized over a weighted average period of approximately six years. Favorable/unfavorable leasehold arrangements are being amortized over an average period of approximately fourteen years. Loan origination costs are amortized over the life of the underlying debt as an increase to interest expense.

The following table presents the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization for each major class of intangible assets, excluding goodwill, at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013:



	December 31, 2012						June 30, 2013

Long-term debt consisted of the following:



	December 31, 2012		June 30, 2013
	(in thousands)

Less: Current maturities	24		24
Long-term debt, net of current maturities	$	184,831	$	181,728

Term Loan and Security Agreement

On September 25, 2012, in connection with the IPO, we entered into a Term Loan and Security Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. for a $180.7 million term loan facility, expiring September 25, 2015 (the “Term Loan”). Borrowings under the Term Loan bear interest at (i) a base rate (a rate based off of the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) Bank of America's prime rate or (c) LIBOR plus 1.00%) or (ii) LIBOR plus 0.25%. At June 30, 2013, the interest rate on the Term Loan was 0.44%.

In order to obtain the SUSP Term Loan on more favorable terms, SUSP pledged investment grade securities in an amount equal to or greater than 98% of the outstanding principal amount of the SUSP Term Loan (the “Collateral Account”). As of June 30, 2013, $95.9 million of commercial paper and money market fund investments collateralized the SUSP Term Loan. These investments are intended to be used to fund future capital expenditures. The SUSP Term Loan requires SUSP to, among other things (i) deliver certain financial statements, certificates and notices to Bank of America at specified times and (ii) maintain the required collateral and the liens thereon (subject to SUSP's ability to withdraw certain amounts of the collateral, as permitted under the SUSP Term Loan).

Revolving Credit Agreement

On September 25, 2012, in connection with the IPO, we entered into a $250 million revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “SUSP Revolver”) expiring September 25, 2017. The facility can be increased from time to time upon our written request, subject to certain conditions, up to an additional $100 million. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.25% or (ii) LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.00% to 3.25%, (determined with reference to our consolidated total leverage ratio). In addition, the unused portion of our revolving credit facility is subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.375% to 0.50%, based on our consolidated total leverage ratio.

The SUSP Revolver requires us to maintain a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.50 to 1.00, and a consolidated total leverage ratio of not more than 4.50 to 1.00, subject to certain adjustments. Indebtedness under the SUSP Revolver is secured by a security interest in, among other things, all of our present and future personal property and all of the personal property of our guarantors, the capital stock of our subsidiaries, and any intercompany debt. Additionally, if our consolidated total leverage ratio exceeds 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of any fiscal quarter, we will be required, upon request of the lenders, to grant mortgage liens on all real property owned by the Partnership and its subsidiary guarantors.

As of June 30, 2013, the balance on the SUSP revolver was $84.8 million, and $12.8 million in standby letters of credit were outstanding. The unused availability on the SUSP Revolver at June 30, 2013 was $152.4 million. SUSP was in compliance with all covenants.

Guaranty by SUSS of SUSP Term Loan and SUSP Revolver

SUSS entered into a Guaranty of Collection (the “Guaranty”) in connection with the SUSP Term Loan and the SUSP Revolver. Pursuant to the Guaranty, SUSS guarantees the collection of (i) the principal amount outstanding under the SUSP Term Loan and (ii) the SUSP Revolver. SUSS' obligation under the Guaranty is limited to $180.7 million. SUSS is not required to make payments under the Guaranty unless and until (a) SUSP has failed to make a payment on a the SUSP Term Loan or SUSP Revolver, (b) the obligations under such facilities have been accelerated, (c) all remedies of the applicable lenders to

collect the unpaid amounts due under such facilities, whether at law or equity, have been exhausted and (d) the applicable lenders have failed to collect the full amount owing on such facilities. In addition, SUSS entered into a Reimbursement Agreement with PropCo, whereby SUSS is obligated to reimburse PropCo for any amounts paid by PropCo under the guaranty of the SUSP Revolver executed by SUSP's subsidiaries. SUSS' exposure under this reimbursement agreement is limited, when aggregated with its obligation under the Guaranty, to $180.7 million.

Other Debt

In August 2010 our Predecessor entered into a mortgage note for an aggregate initial borrowing amount of $1.2 million. Pursuant to the terms of the mortgage note, we make monthly installment payments that are comprised of principal and interest through the maturity date of July 1, 2016. The balance outstanding at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The mortgage note bears interest at a fixed rate of 6.0%. The mortgage note is secured by a first priority security interest in a property owned by the Partnership.

The estimated fair value of long-term debt is calculated using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of debt as of June 30, 2013, is estimated to be approximately $182.1 million, based on the par value of the Term Loan, the current balance of the SUSP Revolver and an analysis of the net present value of remaining payments on the notes payable rate at a rate calculated off U.S. Treasury Securities.

Fair Value Measurements

We use fair value measurements to measure, among other items, purchased assets and investments, leases and derivative contracts. We also use them to assess impairment of properties, equipment, intangible assets and goodwill. Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or is derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, use of unobservable prices or inputs is used to estimate the current fair value, often using an internal valuation model. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the item being valued.

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into the following hierarchy:



Level 1	Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2	Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable;

Level 3	Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

Debt or equity securities are classified into the following reporting categories: held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale securities. The investments in debt securities, which typically mature in one year or less, are currently classified as held-to-maturity and valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The fair value of marketable securities is measured using Level 1 inputs. The maturity dates of these debt securities range from July 1, 2013 to September 3, 2013 and are classified on the balance sheet in other assets. Included in the marketable securities classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are approximately $5.9 million in money market funds. The carrying value of these money market funds approximates fair value and are measured using Level 1 inputs. The gross unrecognized holding gains and losses as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013 were not material. These investments are used as collateral to secure the SUSP Term Loan and are intended to be used only for funding future capital expenditures.

The Partnership may periodically enter into derivatives, such as futures and options, to manage its fuel price risk, primarily related to bulk purchases of fuel. We hedge this inventory risk through the use of fuel futures contracts which are matched in quantity and timing to the anticipated usage of the inventory. The fair value of our derivative contracts is measured using Level 2 inputs, and is determined by either market prices on an active market for similar assets or by prices quoted by a broker or other market-corroborated prices. This price does not differ materially from the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor due to the short term nature of these contracts. At December 31, 2012, we held fuel futures contracts with a fair value of ($79,700) (49 contracts representing 2.1 million gallons). At June 30, 2013, the Partnership held fuel futures contracts with a fair value of ($247,700) (173 contracts representing 7.3 million gallons). The recognized gain/(loss) during the first six months of 2012 (by our Predecessor) and 2013 related to these contracts was less than $0.1 million

and ($1.2 million), respectively. The gain or loss realized on hedging contracts is substantially offset by decreased/increased profitability on sale of fuel inventory. We did not use hedge accounting with regards to these contracts.


9.	Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

The Partnership leases certain convenience store and other properties under non-cancellable operating leases whose initial terms are typically 5 to 10 years, along with options that permit renewals for additional periods. Minimum rent is typically expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. We typically are responsible for payment of real estate taxes, maintenance expenses and insurance. These properties are primarily sublet to third parties.

The components of net rent expense are as follows:



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2012		June 30, 2013		June 30, 2012		June 30, 2013

Interest expense, net	$	92		$	766		$	180		$	1,449


11.	Income Tax

As a limited partnership, we are generally not subject to state and federal income tax, with the exception of the state of Texas. Included in our provision for income tax is a tax imposed by the state of Texas of 0.5% of gross margin in Texas (“franchise tax”). Our taxable income or loss, which may vary substantially from the net income or net loss reported in the consolidated statements of operations, is includable in the federal and state income tax returns of each unitholder. We are, however, subject to a statutory requirement that our non-qualifying income cannot exceed 10% of our total gross income, determined on a calendar year basis under the applicable income tax provisions. If the amount of our non-qualifying income exceeds this statutory limit, we would be taxed as a corporation. Accordingly, certain activities that generate non-qualifying income are conducted through a taxable corporate subsidiary, PropCo. PropCo is subject to federal and state income tax and pays any income taxes related to the results of its operations. For the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, our non-qualifying income did not exceed the statutory limit.

Our Predecessor was subject to income tax and was included in the consolidated income tax returns of SUSS. Income taxes were allocated to the Predecessor based on separate-company computations of income or loss. The income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are those of our Predecessor.



	Three Months Ended									Six Months Ended

12.	Equity

As of June 30, 2013, SUSS owned 14,436 common units and 10,939,436 subordinated units, which together constitute a 50.1% ownership interest in us. We issued 10,925,000 common units to the public in connection with our IPO.

Allocations 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, if any, to priority income allocations in an amount equal to incentive cash distributions allocated 100% to SUSS.

The calculation of net income allocated to the partners is as follows (in thousands, except per unit amounts):



Net Income Attributable to Susser Petroleum Partners LP Limited Partner Units - Common Units
	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2013			June 30, 2013
Distributions (a)	$	4,953		$	9,739
Distributions in excess of income	(113		)	(786		)
Limited partners' interest in net income	$	4,840		$	8,953

Net Income Attributable to Susser Petroleum Partners LP Limited Partner Units - Subordinated Units
	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2013			June 30, 2013
Distributions (a)	$	4,953		$	9,739
Distributions in excess of income	(113		)	(786		)
Limited partners' interest in net income	$	4,840		$	8,953

(a) Distributions declared per unit	$0.4528			$0.8903

Incentive Distribution Rights

The following table illustrates the percentage allocations of available cash from operating surplus between the unitholders and SUSS (in its capacity as the holder of our incentive distribution rights or "IDRs") based on the specified target distribution levels. The amounts set forth under “marginal percentage interest in distributions” are the percentage interests of SUSS and the unitholders in any available cash from operating surplus we distribute up to and including the corresponding amount in the column “total quarterly distribution per unit target amount”. The percentage interests shown for our unitholders and SUSS for the minimum quarterly distribution are also applicable to quarterly distribution amounts that are less than the minimum quarterly distribution. The percentage interests set forth below for SUSS assume that there are no arrearages on common units and that SUSS continues to own all of the IDRs.



		Marginal percentage interest in distributions
	Total quarterly distribution per unit target amount	Unitholders		SUSS
Minimum Quarterly Distribution	$0.4375	100	%	—
First Target Distribution	Above $0.4375 up to $0.503125	100	%	—
Second Target Distribution	Above $0.503125 up to $0.546875	85	%	15	%
Third Target Distribution	Above $0.546875 up to $0.656250	75	%	25	%
Thereafter	Above $0.656250	50	%	50	%

Cash Distributions

Our partnership agreement, as amended, sets forth the calculation to be used to determine the amount and priority of cash distributions that the common and subordinated unitholders will receive. On May 7, 2013, we declared a quarterly cash distribution, based on the results for the three months ended March 31, 2013, totaling $9.6 million, or $0.4375 per unit calculated as the minimum quarterly distribution. The distribution was paid on May 30, 2013 to unitholders of record on May 6, 2013 bringing the total paid for the year to $19.1 million. On August 5, 2013, we declared a quarterly distribution totaling $9.9 million, based on the results for the three months ended June 30, 2013, or $0.4528 per unit. The distribution will be paid on August 29, 2013 to unitholders of record on August 19, 2013.


13.	Equity-Based Compensation

Unit-based compensation expense related to the Partnership and stock-based compensation expense allocated to our Predecessor that was included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations was as follows (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2012		June 30, 2013		June 30, 2012		June 30, 2013
	Predecessor				Predecessor
Phantom common units	$	—	$	183	$	—	$	306
Predecessor allocated expense	334		—		569		—
SUSS allocated expense	—		218		—		500
Total equity-based compensation expense	$	334	$	401	$	569	$	806

Phantom Common Unit Awards

No grants were issued during the second quarter of 2013. The fair value of each phantom unit on the grant date is based on the market price of our common unit on that date. The estimated fair value of our phantom units is amortized over the vesting period using the straight-line method. Non-employee director awards vest over a one to three-year period and employee awards vest ratably over a two to five-year service period. The fair value of nonvested service phantom units outstanding as of June 30, 2013, totaled $1.1 million which will be amortized to expense over the requisite service period.

A summary of our phantom unit award activity is set forth below:



	Number of Phantom Common Units	Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at December 31, 2011	—	$	—
Granted	32,500	23.09
Nonvested at December 31, 2012	32,500	23.09
Granted	12,139	32.50
Nonvested at June 30, 2013	44,639	$	25.65


14.	Net Income per Unit

Net income per unit applicable to limited partners (including subordinated unitholders) is computed by dividing limited partners' interest in net income, after deducting any incentive distributions, by the weighted-average number of outstanding common and subordinated units. Our net income is allocated to the limited partners in accordance with their respective partnership percentages, after giving effect to priority income allocations for incentive distributions, if any, to SUSS, the holder of the IDRs, pursuant to our partnership agreement. Net income per unit is only calculated for the Partnership after the IPO as no units were outstanding prior to September 25, 2012. Earnings in excess of distributions are allocated to the limited partners based on their respective ownership interests. Payments made to our unitholders are determined in relation to actual distributions declared and are not based on the net income allocations used in the calculation of net income per unit. As of June 30, 2013, the weighted-average number of units outstanding equals the total number of units outstanding.

In addition to the common and subordinated units, we have also identified the IDRs as participating securities and use the two-class method when calculating the net income per unit applicable to limited partners, which is based on the weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per unit includes the effects of potentially dilutive units on our common units, consisting of unvested phantom units. Basic and diluted net income per unit applicable to subordinated limited partners are the same because there are no potentially dilutive subordinated units outstanding.

We also disclose limited partner units issued and outstanding. There have been no additional changes to the outstanding shares after the closing of the IPO. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted per unit computations is as follows:



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2013		June 30, 2013
	(in thousands, except units and per unit amounts)
Net income	$	9,680	$	17,907

Subordinated - SUSS (basic and diluted)	$	0.44	$	0.82


15.	Related-Party Transactions

We entered into two long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with SUSS in connection with our IPO, summarized as follows:

•

Distribution agreement - a 10-year agreement under which we will be the exclusive distributor of motor fuel to SUSS' existing Stripes® convenience stores and independently operated consignment locations, and to all future sites purchased by SUSP pursuant to the sale and leaseback option under the Omnibus Agreement, at cost, including tax and transportation costs, plus a fixed profit margin of three cents per gallon. In addition, all future motor fuel volumes purchased by SUSS for its own account will be added to the distribution agreement pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Agreement.


•	Transportation agreement - a 10-year transportation logistics agreement, pursuant to which SUSS will arrange for motor fuel to be delivered from our suppliers to our customers at rates consistent with those charged by SUSS to third parties for the delivery of motor fuel.

Omnibus Agreement

In addition to the commercial agreements described above, we also entered into an Omnibus Agreement with SUSS pursuant to which, among other things, we received a three-year option to purchase from SUSS up to 75 of SUSS' new or recently constructed Stripes® convenience stores at their cost and lease the stores back to them at a specified rate for a 15-year initial term, and SUSP will be the exclusive distributor of motor fuel to such stores for a period of ten years from the date of purchase. We also received a ten-year right to participate in acquisition opportunities with SUSS, to the extent SUSP and SUSS are able to reach an agreement on terms, and the exclusive right to distribute motor fuel to certain of SUSS' newly constructed convenience stores and independently operated consignment locations. In addition, we agreed to reimburse our general partner and its affiliates for the costs incurred in managing and operating SUSP. The Omnibus Agreement also provides for certain indemnification obligations between SUSS and SUSP.

Contribution Agreement

On September 25, 2012, in connection with the closing of our IPO, the following transactions, among others, occurred pursuant to the Contribution Agreement:


•	SUSS contributed to SPOC substantially all of its wholesale motor fuel distribution business, other than its motor fuel consignment business and transportation assets, which included:


•	marketer, distributor and supply agreements,


•	fuel supply agreements to distribute motor fuel to convenience stores and other retail fuel outlets,


•	real property owned in fee and personal property,


•	leases and subleases under which it was a tenant, and


•	leases and subleases under which it was a landlord.


•	SPC contributed its membership interests in T&C Wholesale to SPOC.


•	SPC contributed its interest in SPOC to the Partnership in exchange for 14,436 common units representing a 0.07% limited partner interest in the Partnership, 10,939,436 subordinated units representing a 50.0% limited partner interest in the Partnership and all of the incentive distribution rights of the Partnership.

Summary of Transactions

Related-party transactions with SUSS are as follows:

•

The Partnership sells motor fuel to SUSS for resale at its Stripes® convenience stores and independently operated consignment locations. Motor fuel sales to affiliates for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, were $751.3 million and $1.5 billion, resulting in gross profit of $7.9 million and $15.4 million, respectively. Prior to September 25, 2012, the Predecessor sold motor fuel to affiliates at zero gross profit. Additionally, we collect credit card receipts from the motor fuel suppliers on SUSS' behalf.

•

SUSS charged us for general and administrative services under the Omnibus Agreement for oversight of the Partnership and its Predecessor. Such amounts include certain expenses allocated by SUSS for general corporate services, such as finance, internal audit and legal services, which are included in general and administrative expenses. These expenses were charged or allocated to the Partnership based on the nature of the expenses and our proportionate share of employee time and headcount, which management believes to be reasonable. SUSS charged us $0.6 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and $1.2 million during the first half of 2013, including stock compensation. SUSS allocated to the Predecessor stock compensation of $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.


•	We reimbursed SUSS for costs of employees supporting our operations of $2.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and $5.3 million during the first half of 2013. Prior to the IPO, these expenses were incurred directly by the Predecessor.


•	We distributed $4.8 million and $9.6 million during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 to SUSS as regular distributions on its common and subordinated units.


•	SUSS charged us for transportation services under the Transportation Contract for delivery of motor fuel to our customers of $12.6 million and $24.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. Prior to the IPO, these expenses were incurred directly by the Predecessor.


•	SUSS charged the Predecessor for rent expense on certain real estate, which was in turn subleased by the Predecessor to dealers, of $0.7 million and $1.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012. No rent expense was incurred subsequent to the IPO.

•

We acquired six convenience store properties from SUSS for $21.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, bringing the total for the year to 12. We spent $52.5 million during the first half of 2013, which also includes final cost true-up adjustments These stores were leased back to SUSS. Since our IPO, we have acquired a total of 20 convenience store properties from SUSS, for a total cost of $81.5 million, through June 30, 2013.


•	We charged SUSS rent on the convenience store properties which were purchased by us and leased back to them. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, we charged $1.3 million and $2.1 million to SUSS on these leases.


•	Net accounts receivable from SUSS were $59.5 million and $51.3 million at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

Overview

We are a growth-oriented Delaware limited partnership formed by SUSS to engage in the primarily fee-based wholesale distribution of motor fuels to SUSS and third parties. We closed the initial public offering of our common units, including related restructuring transactions and entry into certain key agreements with SUSS, on September 25, 2012. As of June 30, 2013, SUSS operates 567 retail convenience stores under its proprietary Stripes® convenience store brand, primarily in growing Texas markets. Stripes is a leading independent chain of convenience stores in Texas based on store count and retail motor fuel volumes sold. Our business is integral to the success of SUSS' retail operations, and SUSS purchases substantially all of its motor fuel from us. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, we distributed 264.1 million and 515.2

million gallons of motor fuel to Stripes® convenience stores and SUSS' consignment locations, and 124.9 million and 240.8 million gallons of motor fuel to other third party customers. We are a leading motor fuel distributor by gallons in Texas, and among the largest distributors of Valero and Chevron branded motor fuel in the United States.

In addition to distributing motor fuel, we also distribute other petroleum products such as propane and lube oil, and we receive rental income from real estate that we lease or sublease. We purchase motor fuel primarily from independent refiners and major oil companies and distribute it throughout Texas and in Louisiana, New Mexico and Oklahoma to:


•	Stripes® convenience stores, pursuant to the SUSS Distribution agreement;


•	approximately 90 other independently operated consignment locations where SUSS sells motor fuel to retail customers, also pursuant to the SUSS Distribution agreement;


•	approximately 488 convenience stores and retail fuel outlets operated by independent operators, which we refer to as "dealers," pursuant to long-term distribution agreements; and


•	approximately 1,800 other commercial customers, including unbranded convenience stores, other fuel distributors, school districts and municipalities and other industrial customers.

We entered into several agreements with SUSS concurrent with our IPO. See Note 15 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding related-party transactions.

Factors Affecting Comparability of our Financial Results

The Partnership's post IPO results of operations may not be comparable to the Predecessor's historical results of operations for the reasons described below:

Revenues and Gross Profits. Our assets have historically been a part of the integrated operations of SUSS, and our Predecessor distributed motor fuel and other petroleum products to SUSS without any profit margin. Accordingly, the revenues and gross profits in our Predecessor's historical consolidated financial statements do not include the profit margin on fuel sold to SUSS. In addition, our Predecessor's results of operations included results from consignment contracts that were retained by SUSS following the completion of the IPO.

General and Administrative Expenses. Our Predecessor's general and administrative expenses included direct charges for the management of its operations as well as certain expenses allocated from SUSS for general corporate services. These expenses were charged, or allocated, to our Predecessor based on the nature of the expenses. The Partnership continues to incur charges for the management of the operations contributed to the Partnership as well as an allocation for general corporate services. We also expect to incur additional incremental general and administrative expenses as a result of being a separate publicly-traded partnership.

Other Operating Expenses and Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion. Our Predecessor's other operating expenses and depreciation, amortization and accretion include direct charges related to consignment operations not contributed to the Partnership.

Income Tax Expense. Our Predecessor was part of a taxable corporation, and as such, was allocated a portion of federal income tax expense. Our income tax expense only includes applicable Texas franchise tax and any federal and state income taxes related to PropCo.

Key Operating Metrics

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information concerning key measures we rely on to gauge our operating performance. Historical results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 include our Predecessor's results of operations. The following information is intended to provide investors with a reasonable basis for assessing our historical operations, but should not serve as the only criteria for predicting our future performance.

For the second quarter and first half of 2012, affiliated sales only include sales to Stripes® convenience stores, for which our Predecessor historically received no margin, and third-party motor fuel sales and gross profit cents per gallon includes the motor fuel sold directly to independently operated consignment locations, as well as sales to third-party dealers and other commercial customers. Following our IPO on September 25, 2012, we sell fuel to SUSS for both Stripes® convenience stores and SUSS' independently operated consignment locations at a fixed profit margin of approximately three cents per gallon, and these sales are classified as affiliated sales.

We define EBITDA as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA to reflect certain other non-recurring and non-cash items. We define distributable cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, cash state franchise tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures, and other non-cash adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

We believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are 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 such metrics as measures of financial performance, ability to make distributions to our unitholders and debt service capabilities;


•	they are used by our management for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget, and capital expenditures; and


•	distributable cash flow provides useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance, as it provides investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow have limitations as analytical tools, and one should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include:


•	they do not reflect our total cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;


•	they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital;


•	they do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our revolving credit facility or term loan;


•	although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and


•	because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2012

The following discussion of results for the second quarter 2013 compared to the second quarter 2012 reflects the combined results of our Predecessor for the second quarter of 2012 and SUSP results for the second quarter of 2013. The Partnership's post IPO results of operations may not be comparable to the Predecessor's historical results of operations, as further discussed in “Factors Affecting Comparability of our Financial Results” and “Pro Forma Results of Operations.”

Revenue. Total revenue for the second quarter of 2013 was $1.1 billion, an increase of $31.6 million, or 2.9%, from the second quarter of 2012. Motor fuel sales to third parties decreased $103.4 million, or 22.2%. Of this decrease, $93.3 million is related to 2012 consignment motor fuel sales which are now included in affiliated sales. Of the remaining decrease, the wholesale selling price per gallon of motor fuel decreased 4.3%. Motor fuel sales to affiliates increased $134.6 million, or 21.8%, from the second quarter of 2012. Of this increase, $91.0 million related to 2013 consignment motor fuel sales that were previously reflected in third party sales for the Predecessor. The remaining increase consisted of an 8.3% increase in gallons sold to affiliates, offset by a 0.6% decrease in the wholesale selling price of motor fuel. Rental revenue of $2.3 million increased by $0.9 million from last year due to the acquisition of 20 convenience store locations from SUSS we subsequently leased back to them.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2013 was $17.0 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or 19.6%, over the second quarter of 2012. Gross profit on motor fuel sales to third parties decreased $5.5 million primarily attributable to the shift of consignment sales from third party to affiliated sales, as discussed above. The sales price of motor fuel sold to third parties decreased by 13.1 cents per gallon while the cost of fuel decreased 10.5 cents per gallon resulting in a 2.6 cents per gallon decrease in gross profit. The Predecessor sold motor fuel to affiliates at cost, resulting in no gross profit on motor fuel sales to affiliates. SUSP sold fuel to affiliates at a gross profit of approximately 3.0 cents per gallon, resulting in $7.9 million gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Other gross profit of $3.0 million increased by $0.3 million from last year, primarily attributed to rental income, offset by the reduction of certain income streams not contributed to us at the IPO.

Total Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2013 were $6.4 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 22.4%, from the second quarter of 2012. For the second quarter of 2013, general and administrative expenses, or G&A expenses, increased by $0.5 million, or 15.7%, from 2012. The increase in G&A was primarily attributable to increased cost of salaries, and benefits related to annual compensation increases and headcount additions during 2013. A portion of the G&A increase is attributable to a planned $2 million annual increase related to new public company expenses. Also included in G&A expense is $0.4 million of non-cash stock compensation expense, an increase of $0.1 million compared to the prior year. Other operating expenses decreased $1.6 million, or 74.2%, primarily related to operating expenses associated with activities not contributed to us in the IPO. Rent expense was $0.8 million less for the second quarter of 2013 than the second quarter of 2012 as not all Predecessor properties were contributed to us. For the same reason, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense for the second quarter of 2013 of $1.8 million was down $0.1 million, or 2.9%, from 2012.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $2.0 million less in the second quarter of 2013 than the second quarter of 2012. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2013 was 0.7% compared to 36.2% for the second quarter of 2012. The second quarter of 2012 reflects the income tax provision of the Predecessor. The Predecessor was a taxable entity and was included in SUSS' income tax returns. For the second quarter of 2013, SUSP, as a pass through entity, is not subject to income tax, with the exception of PropCo, but is subject to Texas franchise tax.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

The following discussion of results for the first six months 2013 compared to the first six months 2012 reflects the combined results of our Predecessor for the first six months of 2012 and SUSP results for the first six months of 2013. The Partnership's post IPO results of operations may not be comparable to the Predecessor's historical results of operations, as further discussed in “Factors Affecting Comparability of our Financial Results” and “Pro Forma Results of Operations.”

Revenue. Total revenue for the first six months of 2013 was $2.2 billion, an increase of $40.1 million, or 1.9%, from the first six months of 2012. Motor fuel sales to third parties decreased $194.7 million, or 21.5%. Of this decrease, $180.8 million is related to 2012 consignment motor fuel sales which are now included in affiliated sales. Of the remaining decrease, the wholesale selling price per gallon of motor fuel decreased 3.8% offset by gallons sold to third parties which increased 0.9%. Motor fuel sales to affiliates increased $234.9 million, or 18.8%, from the first six months of 2012. Of this increase, $175.1 million related to 2013 consignment motor fuel sales that were previously reflected in third party sales for the Predecessor. The remaining increase consisted of 6.8% increase in gallons sold to affiliates, offset by a 1.9% decrease in the wholesale selling price of motor fuel. Rental revenue of $3.9 million increased by $1.2 million from last year due to the acquisition of 20 convenience store locations from SUSS we subsequently leased back to them.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. Gross profit for the first six months of 2013 was $32.5 million, an increase of $8.4 million, or 35.1%, over the first six months of 2012. Gross profit on motor fuel sales to third parties decreased $6.8 million primarily attributable to the shift of consignment sales from third party to affiliated sales, as discussed above. The sales price of motor fuel sold to third parties decreased by 11.6 cents per gallon while the cost of fuel decreased 10.2 cents per gallon resulting in a 1.4 cents per gallon decrease in gross profit. The Predecessor sold motor fuel to affiliates at cost, resulting in no gross profit on motor fuel sales to affiliates. SUSP sold fuel to affiliates at a gross profit of approximately 3.0 cents per gallon, resulting in $15.4 million gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Other gross profit of $5.3 million decreased by $0.1 million from last year, primarily attributed to certain income streams not contributed to us at the IPO offset by additional rent income.

Total Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the first six months of 2013 were $13.0 million, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 15.7%, from the first six months of 2012. For the first six months of 2013, general and administrative expenses, or G&A expenses, increased by $1.7 million, or 30.1%, from 2012. The increase in G&A was primarily attributable to increased cost of salaries, bonus and benefits related to annual compensation increases and headcount additions during 2013. A portion of the G&A increase is attributable to a planned $2 million annual increase related to new public company expenses.

Also included in G&A expense is $0.8 million of non-cash stock compensation expense, an increase of $0.2 million compared to the prior year. Other operating expenses decreased $2.4 million, or 67.1%, primarily related to operating expenses associated with activities not contributed to us in the IPO. Rent expense was $1.7 million less in the first six months of 2013 than the first six months of 2012 due to Predecessor properties not being contributed to us. For this same reason, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense for the first six months of 2013 of $3.7 million was down $0.1 million, or 3.1%, from 2012.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $2.9 million less in the first six months of 2013 than the first six months of 2012. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2013 was 0.8% compared to 36.4% for the first six months of 2012. The six months of 2012 reflects the income tax provision of the Predecessor. The Predecessor was a taxable entity and was included in SUSS' income tax returns. For the first six months of 2013, SUSP, as a pass through entity, is not subject to income tax, with the exception of PropCo which is subject to income tax, but is subject to Texas franchise tax.

Pro Forma Results of Operations

We have provided below certain pro forma results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, which give pro forma effect to (i) the contribution by our Predecessor to us of substantially all of the assets and operations comprising its wholesale motor fuel distribution business (other than its motor fuel consignment business and transportation assets and substantially all of its accounts receivable and payable) and the contribution by SUSS and our Predecessor to us of certain convenience store properties and (ii) our entry into the SUSS Distribution agreement, the SUSS Transportation agreement and the Omnibus Agreement as if such transactions had occurred at the beginning of the period presented.

Our assets have historically been a part of the integrated operations of SUSS, and our Predecessor distributed motor fuel and other petroleum products to SUSS, as opposed to third parties, without receiving any profit margin. Accordingly, the gross profit in our Predecessor's historical consolidated financial statements, prior to September 25, 2012, relates only to the profit margin received from third parties for our wholesale distribution services and from consignment contracts that were retained by SUSS following the completion of our IPO. The pro forma information presented in the table below was derived based upon known volumes distributed by our Predecessor to SUSS reflected in our Predecessor's historical financial statements for which our Predecessor did not receive any profit margin, and adjusted for the profit margin that we will receive going forward pursuant to the SUSS distribution agreement applied to those volumes. The pro forma information was also derived based upon the volumes distributed by our Predecessor under consignment arrangements, for which it historically received variable margins, and the profit margin contained in the SUSS distribution agreement applied to those volumes.

Management believes the pro forma presentation is useful to investors because, had it been in effect during the historical periods presented, the SUSS Distribution agreement would have had a substantial impact on our historical results of operations as a result of (i) the fixed profit margin that we would have earned on the motor fuel distributed to SUSS instead of no margin historically reflected in our Predecessor financial statements and (ii) the fixed profit margin that we would have received on all volumes sold to consignment locations instead of the variable and higher margin received by our Predecessor under consignment contracts.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Pro Forma Three Months Ended June 30, 2012

Pro Forma Revenue. Total revenue for the second quarter of 2013 was $1.1 billion, an increase of $30.5 million, or 2.8%, from the pro forma second quarter results of 2012. Motor fuel sales to third parties decreased $9.6 million, or 2.6%, compared to pro forma second quarter results of 2012, due to a 2.8% decrease in the wholesale selling price per gallon of motor fuel. Pro forma motor fuel sales to affiliates increased $38.6 million, or 5.4%, from the pro forma second quarter results of 2012, due to an increase in gallons sold to affiliates of 19.7 million gallons, or 8.0%, partly offset by a 2.4% decrease in the selling price of fuel. Rental revenue was $2.3 million, an increase of 171.0% from the same pro forma period last year. Most of the increase was due to rent income from SUSS in the purchase and leaseback of 20 Stripes stores since the IPO.

Pro Forma Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. Motor fuel gross profit from third-party sales for the second quarter of 2013 was $6.1 million, an increase of $0.9 million, or 16.3%, over the pro forma second quarter results of 2012. This increase can be attributed to the 16.0% increase in third-party motor fuel gross profit cents per gallon, which increased from 4.2 to 4.9 cents per gallon period to period and a 0.3% increase in third party gallons sold. The sales price of motor fuel sold to third parties decreased by 8.5 cents per gallon, while the cost of fuel decreased 9.2 cents per gallon resulting in a 0.7 cent per gallon increase in gross profit. Motor fuel gross profit from sales to affiliates for the second quarter of 2013 were $7.9 million, an 8.2% increase over the pro forma second quarter results of 2012. The increase was mostly due to an 8.0% increase in gallons sold to affiliates. Cost of sales per gallon increased commensurate with revenue per gallon, which resulted in a 3.0 cents per gallon fuel gross profit for both second quarter 2012 (on a pro forma basis) and second quarter 2013. Gross profit from rental income during the second quarter of 2013 was $2.3 million, an increase of $1.4 million over the prior year period, related to the new properties we purchased and are leasing to affiliated and third-party customers.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Pro Forma Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

Pro Forma Revenue. Total revenue for the first six months of 2013 was $2.2 billion, an increase of $35.2 million, or 1.6%, from the pro forma first six months results of 2012. Motor fuel sales to third parties decreased $13.9 million, or 1.9%, compared to pro forma first six months results of 2012, due to a 2.8% decrease in the wholesale selling price per gallon of

motor fuel. Pro forma motor fuel sales to affiliates increased $46.8 million, or 3.3%, from the pro forma first six months results of 2012, due to an increase in gallons sold to affiliates of 33.3 million gallons, or 6.9%, partly offset by a 3.4% decrease in the selling price of fuel. Rental revenue was $3.9 million, an increase of 132.6% from the same pro forma period last year. Most of the increase was due to rent income from SUSS in the purchase and leaseback of 20 Stripes stores since the IPO.

Pro Forma Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. Motor fuel gross profit from third-party sales for the first six months of 2013 was $11.9 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 18.3%, over the pro forma first six months results of 2012. This increase can be attributed to the 17.2% increase in third-party motor fuel gross profit cents per gallon, which increased from 4.2 to 4.9 cents per gallon period to period and a 0.9% increase in third party gallons sold. The sales price of motor fuel sold to third parties decreased by 8.6 cents per gallon, while the cost of fuel decreased 9.3 cents per gallon resulting in a 0.7 cent per gallon increase in gross profit. Motor fuel gross profit from sales to affiliates for the first six months of 2013 were $15.4 million, a 6.2% increase over the pro forma first six months results of 2012. The increase was mostly due to a 6.9% increase in gallons sold to affiliates. Cost of sales per gallon increased commensurate with revenue per gallon, which resulted in a 3.0 cents per gallon fuel gross profit for both first six months 2012 (on a pro forma basis) and first six months 2013. Gross profit from rental income during the first six months of 2013 was $3.9 million, an increase of $2.2 million over the prior year period, related to the new properties we purchased and are leasing to affiliated and third-party customers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity. Our principal liquidity requirements are to finance current operations, fund capital expenditures, including acquisitions from time to time, and to service our debt. Historically, our Predecessor's operations were financed as part of SUSS' integrated operations and our Predecessor did not record any significant costs associated with financing its operations. Additionally, our Predecessor largely relied on internally generated cash flows to satisfy its capital expenditure requirements. We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated from operations, liquidation of our marketable securities, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and the issuance of additional partnership units as appropriate given market conditions. We will sell our marketable securities over time to fund our capital expenditures. Immediately prior to selling such securities, we will repay an equal amount of term loan borrowings with borrowings under our revolving credit facility. As a result, our marketable securities provide us with the ability to fund capital expenditures without increasing the net amount of our outstanding borrowings. We expect that these sources of funds will be adequate to provide for our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and other capital requirements, including capital expenditures, as well as make 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 items discussed in detail under "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K may also significantly impact our liquidity.

We had $6.8 million and $16.5 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013 respectively, all of which were unrestricted.

Cash Flows Provided by Operations. Cash flows provided by operations are our main source of liquidity. Our Predecessor historically relied primarily on cash provided by operating activities, supplemented as necessary from time to time by borrowings under the SUSS credit facility and other debt or equity transactions to finance its operations and to fund its capital expenditures. Concurrent with our IPO, we entered into a $250 million revolving credit facility, described below, to provide liquidity as needed to meet changes in working capital requirements. Our daily working capital requirements fluctuate within each month, primarily in response to the timing of payments for motor fuel, motor fuel tax and rent. The Partnership has entered into several commercial agreements with SUSS. Please read Note 15 for a detailed discussion of these agreements.

Cash flows from operations were $7.5 million and $37.5 million for the first six months of 2012 and 2013, respectively. Changes in our Predecessor's cash flows from operations were primarily driven by increases in accounts receivable and accounts payable which were impacted by increasing motor fuel prices and costs along with operating performance. In addition, we purchased additional fuel inventory. Following the IPO, increases in accounts receivable from affiliates and accounts payable were a result of the Partnership building these account balances as it commenced operations. We also beg

an receiving a gross profit mark-up on affiliated sales subsequent to our IPO, which we did not receive in the first six months of 2012.

Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures, including purchase of intangibles but before any asset dispositions, were $6.9 million and $57.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Our capital spending program is focused on expanding our wholesale distribution network and maintaining our owned properties and equipment. Capital expenditure plans are generally evaluated based on return on investment and estimated incremental cash flow. We develop annual capital spending plans based on historical trends of our Predecessor for maintenance capital, plus identified projects for new sites and revenue-generating capital. In addition to the annually recurring capital expenditures, potential acquisition opportunities are evaluated based on their anticipated return on invested capital, accretive impact to operating results, and strategic fit.

Subsequent to our IPO, our capital expenditures no longer include the acquisition, replacement and maintenance of certain transportation, fuel and other equipment and facilities that were not contributed to us, but historically required capital expenditures by our Predecessor. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2013 were $57.9 million, which includes $57.6 million in expansion capital, of which $52.5 million relates to the sale and leaseback transactions with SUSS, and $0.3 million in maintenance capital.

Other Investing Activities. During the six months of 2013, we financed the $52.5 million purchase of 12 retail stores from SUSS including an additional $4.2 million of final cost true-up adjustments on previously purchased stores with proceeds from liquidating a portion of our marketable securities. The marketable securities serve as collateral for the SUSP Term Loan.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. During the first six months of 2013, we borrowed $52.5 million on the SUSP Revolver which was used to repay the SUSP Term Loan. Additionally, we repaid $3.1 million on the SUSP Revolver. As of June 30, 2013, the balance outstanding of the SUSP Term Loan was $95.9 million, which was fully collateralized by marketable securities. There were $84.8 million outstanding borrowings under the SUSP Revolver and $12.8 million in standby letters of credit. The unused availability on the SUSP Revolver at June 30, 2013 was $152.4 million. We were in compliance with all covenants.

We intend to pay at least a minimum quarterly distribution of $0.4375 per common unit and subordinated unit per quarter, which equates to approximately $9.6 million per quarter, or $38.3 million per year, based on the number of common and subordinated units currently outstanding, to the extent we have sufficient cash from our operations after establishment of cash reserves and payment of fees and expenses, including payments to our general partner and its affiliates. We do not have a legal obligation to pay this distribution. During the first half of 2013, we paid the fourth quarter 2012 and the first quarter of 2013 distributions totaling $19.1 million. On August 5, 2013, we declared a quarterly distribution totaling $9.9 million, based on the results for the three months ended June 30, 2013, or $0.4528 per unit. The distribution will be paid on August 29, 2013 to unitholders of record on August 19, 2013.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Contractual Obligations. We have contractual obligations which are required to be settled in cash. Our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2013 were as follows:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are both most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. Our significant accounting policies are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on our financing, investing and cash management activities. We currently have a $250.0 million revolving credit facility, of which $84.8 million was outstanding at June 30, 2013, and a $95.9 million term loan which bear interest at variable rates. The annualized effect of a one percentage point change in floating interest rates on our variable rate debt obligations outstanding at June 30, 2013, would be to change interest expense by approximately $1.8 million. 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.

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 six months of 2012 or 2013.

We have also periodically purchased motor fuel in bulk and held in inventory or transported it to West Texas or Houston via pipeline. This inventory risk was hedged through the use of fuel futures contracts which were matched in quantity and timing to the anticipated usage of the inventory. We had 49 positions representing 2.1 million gallons with a fair value of ($79,700) outstanding at December 31, 2012, and 173 positions representing 7.3 million gallons with a fair value of ($247,700) outstanding at June 30, 2013. We began periodically buying bulk fuel and hedging the inventory risk in January 2013. For more information on our hedging activity, see Note 8 in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Our first Annual Report on Form 10-K did not include a report of management's assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by SEC rules applicable to new public companies. Management will be required to provide an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Financial Information - Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, before making any investment decision with respect to our securities.

Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, could negatively impact our results of operations or financial condition in the future. If any of such risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
