NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Unless indicated otherwise, the terms “our,” “we,” “us” and similar language refer to Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. together with its subsidiaries. Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. is a Delaware limited partnership, and its common units are traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “MMP.” Magellan GP, LLC, a wholly-owned Delaware limited liability company, serves as its general partner.

During first quarter 2020, we completed a reorganization of our reportable segments.  This reorganization was effected to reflect changes in the management of our business in conjunction with the sale of 3 of our marine terminals.  Following this sale, 2 of our remaining marine terminals were combined with our refined products segment and 1 terminal was combined with our crude oil segment based on the predominant types of product stored at the facilities.  Accordingly, we have restated our segment disclosures for all previous periods included in this report.

Description of Business

On March 20, 2020, we sold 3 marine terminals to a subsidiary of Buckeye Partners, L.P. (“Buckeye”) for $251.8 million, net of working capital adjustments. These terminals are located in New Haven, Connecticut, Wilmington, Delaware and Marrero, Louisiana. We recognized a $6.2 million impairment loss related to the sale on our consolidated statements of income.

We are principally engaged in the transportation, storage and distribution of refined petroleum products and crude oil.  As of September 30, 2020,2021, our asset portfolio, excluding assets associated with discontinued operations, consisted of:

our refined products segment, comprised of our approximately 9,800-mile refined petroleum products pipeline system with 54 connected terminals as well as 25 independent terminals not connected to our pipeline system and 2 marine storage terminals (1 of which is owned through a joint venture); and

our crude oil segment, comprised of approximately 2,200 miles of crude oil pipelines, a condensate splitter and 37 million barrels of aggregate storage capacity, of which approximately 2527 million barrels are used for contract storage. Approximately 1,000 miles of these pipelines, the condensate splitter and 30 million barrels of this storage capacity (including 2224 million barrels used for contract storage) are wholly-owned, with the remainder owned through joint ventures.

Terminology commonThe following terms are commonly used in our industry includes the following terms, whichto describe products that we transport, store, and distribute or otherwise handle through our petroleum pipelines and terminals:

refined products are the output from crude oil refineries that are primarily used as fuels by consumers. Refined products include gasoline, diesel fuel, aviation fuel, kerosene and heating oil.  Diesel fuel, kerosene and heating oil are also referred to as distillates;

transmix is a mixture ofthat forms when different refined products that forms whenare transported in pipelines. Transmix is fractionated and blended into usable refined products;

liquefied petroleum gases, or LPGs, are liquids produced as by-products of the crude oil refining process and in connection with natural gas production. LPGs include butane and propane;

blendstocks are products blended with refined products to change or enhance their characteristics such as increasing a gasoline’s octane or oxygen content. Blendstocks include alkylates, oxygenates and natural gasoline;

heavy oils and feedstocks are products used as burner fuels or feedstocks for further processing by refineries and petrochemical facilities. Heavy oils and feedstocks include No. 6 fuel oil and vacuum gas oil;

crude oil, which includes condensate, is a naturally occurring unrefined petroleum product recovered from underground that is used as feedstock by refineries, splitters and petrochemical facilities; and

biofuelsrenewable fuels, such as ethanol, biodiesel and biodiesel,renewable diesel, are fuels derived from living materials and typically blended with other refined products as required by government mandates.

We use the term petroleum products to describe any, or a combination, of the above-noted products.

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, our accompanying consolidated financial statements which are unaudited, except for the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019,2020, which is derived from our audited financial statements, include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of September 30, 2020,2021, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20192020 and 20202021 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 and 2020.2021. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 20202021 for several reasons. Profits from our gas liquids blending activities are realized largely during the first and fourth quarters of each year.  Additionally, gasoline demand, which drives transportation volumes and revenues on our refined products pipeline system, generally trends higher during the summer driving months.  Further, the volatility of commodity prices impacts the profits from our commodity activities and the volume of petroleum products we transport on our pipelines. Finally, we expect the impact of COVID-19 on demand for petroleum products and the decline in commodity prices to continue to affect our results of operations in the remaining quarter of 2020, resulting in decreased transportation and terminalling revenues and reduced profits from our gas liquids blending activities.

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the financial statements in
this report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the U.S. for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes normally included withfootnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 4, 2020, which reflects changes in our reporting segments since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.

Discontinued Operations

In June 2021, we entered into an agreement to sell our independent terminals network comprised of 26 refined petroleum products terminals with approximately 6000000 barrels of storage located primarily in the southeastern United States. The sale is expected to close upon the receipt of required regulatory approvals. The related results of operations, financial position and cash flows have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 2 - Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale for further details.

Unless indicated otherwise, the information in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relates to continuing operations.

Reclassifications

PriorCertain prior period amounts related to intrastate crude oil volumes shipped by our marketing affiliate have been reclassified from product sales revenue to transportation revenue to conform with the current period’s presentation.presentation, including amounts related to our discontinued operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities that exist at the date of our consolidated financial statements, as well as their impact on the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016,We evaluate Accounting Standards Updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). Theon an ongoing basis. There are no new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The standard replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodologyaccounting pronouncements that reflects expected credit losses and requires the use of a forward-looking expected credit loss model for accounts receivables, loans and other financial instruments. The standard requires a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. We adopted the new guidance as of January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach related to our accounts receivables and contract assets, resulting in no cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. The adoption of this guidance did notwe anticipate will have a material impact on our financial statements.

2.Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale
On June 10, 2021, we announced an agreement to sell our independent terminals network comprised of 26 refined petroleum products terminals with approximately 6 million barrels of storage located primarily in the southeastern U.S. to Buckeye Partners, L.P. (“Buckeye”) for $435 million. The sale is expected to close upon the receipt of required regulatory approvals.

3.Segment Disclosures

Our reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. Our segments are managed separately asbecause each segment requires different marketing strategies and business knowledge. Management evaluates performance based on segment operating margin, which includes revenue from affiliates and third-party customers, operating expenses,expense, cost of product sales, other operating (income) expense and earnings of non-controlled entities.
We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures used by management. Operating margin, which is presented in the following tables, is an important measure used by management to evaluate the economic performance of our core operations. Operating margin is not a GAAP measure, but the components of operating margin are computed using amounts that are determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of operating margin to operating profit, which is itsthe nearest comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the tables below (presented in thousands). Operating profit includes depreciation, amortization and impairment expense and general and administrative (“G&A”) expense that management does not consider when evaluating the core profitability of our separate operating segments.

All of the instruments detailed in the table above are senior indebtedness.

2020 Debt Issuance

In May 2020, we issued $500.0 million of 3.25% senior notes due 2030 in an underwritten public offering. The notes were issued at 99.88% of par. Net proceeds from this offering were approximately $495.2 million after underwriting discounts and offering expenses. The net proceeds from this offering, along with commercial paper borrowings and cash on hand, were used to redeem our $550 million senior notes due in 2021. We recognized $12.9 million of debt prepayment costs as interest expense in our consolidated statements of income related to this early redemption, partially offset by the recognition of a $0.7 million unamortized debt premium, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Other Debt

Revolving Credit Facility. At September 30, 2020,2021, the total borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility maturing in May 2024 was $1.0 billion. Any borrowings outstanding under this facility are classified as long-term debt on our consolidated balance sheets. Borrowings under thisthe facility are unsecured and bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread ranging from 0.875% to 1.500% based on our credit ratings. Additionally, an unused commitment fee is assessed at a rate between 0.075% and 0.200% depending on our credit ratings. The unused commitment fee was 0.125% at September 30, 2020.2021. Borrowings under this facility may be used for general partnership purposes, including capital expenditures. As of December 31, 20192020 and September 30, 2020,2021, there were 0no borrowings outstanding under this facility and $3.5 million was obligated for letters of credit. Amounts obligated for letters of credit are not reflected as debt on our consolidated balance sheets, but decrease our borrowing capacity

under this facility.

Commercial Paper Program. We have a commercial paper program under which we may issue commercial paper notes in an amount up to the available capacity under our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility. The maturities of the commercial paper notes vary, but may not exceed 397 days from the date of issuance. Because the commercial paper we can issue is limited to amounts available under our revolving credit facility, amounts outstanding under the program are classified as long-term debt. The commercial paper notes are sold under customary terms in the commercial paper market and are issued at a discount from par, or alternatively, are sold at par and bear varying interest rates on a fixed or floating basis. Commercial paper borrowings outstanding at September 30, 20202021 were $248.0$123.0 million. The weighted-average interest rate for commercial paper borrowings based on the number of days outstanding was 0.6%0.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.2021.

9.10.Long-Term Incentive Plan

The compensation committee of our general partner’s board of directors administers our long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) covering certain of our employees and the independent directors of our general partner. In April 2021, our compensation committee and our limited partners approved an amendment to the LTIP increasing the number of common units available for issuance from 11.9 million to 13.7 million. The LTIP primarily consists of phantom units and permits the grant of awards covering an aggregate payout of 11.9 million of our common units. The estimated units remaining available under the LTIP at September 30, 2020 total 1.02021 totaled approximately 2.4 million.

During 2020, we reduced our LTIP accrualsexpense related to performanceperformance-based awards vesting in 2020 and 2021was reduced due to reflect the estimated impacts of COVID-19 related reductions in economic activity and the significant decline in commodity prices.prices on our financial results.

On January 31, 2020, 378,144February 5, 2021, 558,516 unit awards were granted pursuant to our LTIP. These awards included both performance-based and time-based awards and have a three-year vesting period that will end on December 31, 2022.2023.

Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Common Unit

The difference between our actual common units outstanding and our weighted-average number of common units outstanding used to calculate basic net income per unit is due to the impact of: (i) the unit awards issued to non-employee directors and (ii) the weighted average effect of units actually issued or repurchased during a period.  The difference between the weighted-average number of common units outstanding used for basic and diluted net income per unit calculations on our consolidated statements of income is primarily due to the dilutive effect of unit awards associated with our LTIP that have not yet vested.

In second quarter 2020, upon issuance of $500.0 million of 3.25% notes due 2030, we terminated and settled $100.0 million of treasury lock agreements that we had previously entered into to protect against the variability of future interest payments for a loss of $10.4 million, which was included in our statements of cash flows as a net payment on financial derivatives. These agreements were accounted for as cash flow hedges. The loss was recorded to other comprehensive income and will be recognized into earnings as an adjustment to our periodic interest expense over the term of the hedged transaction in accordance with our hedging strategy.

Commodity Derivatives Contracts and Deposits Offsets

At December 31, 20192020 and September 30, 2020,2021, we had made margin deposits of $27.4$34.2 million and $14.0$47.6 million, respectively, for our futures contracts with our counterparties, which were recorded as current assets under commodity derivatives deposits on our consolidated balance sheets. We have the right to offset the combined fair values of our open futures contracts against our margin deposits under a master netting arrangement for each counterparty; however, we have elected to present the combined fair values of our open futures contracts separately from the related margin deposits on our consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, we have the right to offset the fair values of our futures contracts together for each counterparty, which we have elected to do, and we report the combined net balances on our consolidated balance sheets.

Basis Derivative Agreement
During 2019, we entered into a basis derivative agreement with a joint venture co-owner’s affiliate, and, contemporaneously, that affiliate entered into an intrastate transportation services agreement with the joint venture. Settlements under the basis derivative agreement are determined based on the basis differential of crude oil prices at different market locations and a notional volume of 30,000 barrels per day. As a result, we account for this agreement as a derivative. The agreement will expire in early 2022. We recognize the changes in fair value of this agreement based on forward price curves for crude oil in West Texas and the Houston Gulf Coast in other operating income (expense) in our consolidated statements of income. The liability for this agreement at December 31, 20192020 and September 30, 20202021 was $17.3$10.2 million and $12.3$3.1 million, respectively.

11.12.Fair Value

Fair Value Methods and Assumptions - Financial Assets and Liabilities

We used the following methods and assumptions in estimating fair value of our financial assets and liabilities:

Commodity derivatives contracts. These include exchange-traded futures contracts related to petroleum products. These contracts are carried at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets and are valued based on quoted prices in active markets. See Note 1011Derivative Financial Instruments for further disclosures regarding these contracts.

Basis derivative agreement. During 2019, we entered into a basis derivative agreement with a joint venture co-owner’s affiliate, and, contemporaneously, that affiliate entered into an intrastate transportation services agreement with the joint venture. Settlements under the basis derivative agreement are determined based on the basis differential of crude oil prices at different market locations and a notional volume of 30,000 barrels per day (see Note 1011 - Derivative Financial Instruments for further disclosures regarding this agreement). The fair value of this derivative was calculated based on observable market data inputs, including published commodity pricing data and market interest rates. The key inputs in the fair value calculation include the forward price curves for crude oil, the implied forward correlation in crude oil prices between West Texas and the Houston Gulf Coast, and the implied forward volatility for crude oil futures contracts.

Long-term receivables. These include payments receivable under a sales-type leasing arrangement and cost reimbursement agreements. These receivables were recorded at fair value on our
28

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)


Long-term receivables. These primarily include payments receivable under a sales-type leasing arrangement and cost reimbursement payments receivable. These receivables were recorded at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets, using then-current market rates to estimate the present value of future cash flows.

Guarantees and contractualContractual obligations. At September 30, 2020,2021, these primarily include a long-term contractual obligation we entered into in connection with the 2020 sale of our 3 marine terminals to a subsidiary of Buckeye. This obligation requires us to perform certain environmental remediation work on Buckeye’s behalf at the New Haven, Connecticut terminal.  TheThis contractual obligation was recorded at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets upon initial recognition and was calculated using our best estimate of potential outcome scenarios to determine our liability for the remediation costs required in this agreement.

Debt. The fair value of our publicly traded notes was based on the prices of those notes at December 31, 20192020 and September 30, 2020;2021; however, where recent observable market trades were not available, prices were determined using adjustments to the last traded value for that debt issuance or by adjustments to the prices of similar debt instruments of peer entities that are actively traded. The carrying amount of borrowings, if any, under our revolving credit facility and our commercial paper program approximates fair value due to the frequent repricing of these obligations.

Fair Value Measurements - Financial Assets and Liabilities

The following tables summarize the carrying amounts, fair values and fair value measurements recorded or disclosed as of December 31, 20192020 and September 30, 20202021 based on the three levels established by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (in thousands):

Butane Blending Patent Infringement Proceeding

On October 4, 2017, Sunoco Partners Marketing & Terminals L.P. (“Sunoco”) brought an action for patent infringement in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (“Magellan”) and Powder Springs Logistics, LLC (“Powder Springs”) are infringinghave infringed patents related to butane blending at the Powder Springs facility located in Powder Springs, Georgia. Sunoco subsequently submitted pleadings alleging that Magellan is also infringing various patents related to butane blending at 9 Magellan facilities, in addition to Powder Springs. Sunoco is seeking monetary damages, attorneys’ fees and a permanent injunction enjoining Magellan and Powder Springs from infringing the subject patents. We deny and are vigorously defending against all claims asserted by Sunoco. AlthoughThe amounts we have accrued in relation to the claims are immaterial, and although it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome, we believe the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

We are a publicly traded limited partnership principally engaged in the transportation, storage and distribution of refined petroleum products and crude oil. As of September 30, 2020,2021, our asset portfolio, excluding assets associated with discontinued operations, consisted of:
our refined products segment, comprised of our approximately 9,800-mile refined petroleum products pipeline system with 54 connected terminals as well as 25 independent terminals not connected to our pipeline system and two marine storage terminals (one of which is owned through a joint venture); and

our crude oil segment, comprised of approximately 2,200 miles of crude oil pipelines, a condensate splitter and 37 million barrels of aggregate storage capacity, of which approximately 2527 million barrels are used for contract storage. Approximately 1,000 miles of these pipelines, the condensate splitter and 30 million barrels of this storage capacity (including 2224 million barrels used for contract storage) are wholly-owned, with the remainder owned through joint ventures.

During first quarter 2020, we completed a reorganization of our reportable segments.  This reorganization was effected to reflect changes in the management of our business in conjunction with the sale of three of our marine terminals.  Following this sale, two of our remaining marine terminals were combined with our refined products segment and one terminal was combined with our crude oil segment based on the types of product stored at the facilities.  Accordingly, we have restated our segment disclosures for all previous periods included in this report.

The following discussion provides an analysis of the results for each of our operating segments, an overview of our liquidity and capital resources and other items related to our partnership. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with (i) our accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and related notes and (ii) our consolidated financial statements, related notes and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in our Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 4, 2020, which reflects changes in our reporting segments since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Recent Developments

COVID-19 and Decline in Commodity PricesDiscontinued Operations. .  This year’s unprecedented events impacting travel and economic activity have significantly reduced demand forIn June 2021, we entered into an agreement to sell our independent terminals network comprised of 26 refined petroleum products terminals with approximately six million barrels of storage located primarily in the markets we serve.southeastern United States. The related declines in commodity prices have also significantly reducedsale is expected to close upon the valuereceipt of tender barrels we receive from our transportation customers and the margins we earn from our gas liquids blending activities.required regulatory approvals. The reduction in refined products demand and lower crude oil prices have combined to put significant downward pressure on domestic crude oil production.  While we benefit from take-or-pay commitments for the majority of the capacity of our long-haul crude oil pipelines, a sustained reduction in crude oil production could cause delays in the timing of our recognition of revenue from these commitments.  These factors have also significantly decreased the creditworthiness of certain of our crude oil transportation customers, resulting in an increased risk of customer defaults.  To date, our operations and our employees have successfully adapted to the current environment, enabling our customers to continue benefiting from the services they rely on from our critical infrastructure, and our customers have continued to meet their obligations to us.  Given the uncertain timing of a return of refined products demand to historical levels and a recovery in commodity prices, the extent of the impact these events will continue to have on ourrelated results of operations, is unclearfinancial position and could be material.  However, we do not believe these events will impact our ability to meet anycash flows have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 2 - Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale in Item 1 of our financial obligations or result in any significant impairments to our assets.Part I of this report for further details.

Cash Sale of Partial Interest in MVP Terminalling, LLC. In April 2021, we sold nearly half of our membership interest in MVP and received proceeds of $272.1 million. Following the sale, we own approximately 25% of MVP and remain the operator of the facility.

Distribution. In October 2020,2021, our general partner’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash distribution of $1.0275$1.0375 per unit for the period of July 1, 20202021 through September 30, 2020.2021. This quarterly cash distribution will be paid on November 13, 202012, 2021 to unitholders of record on November 6, 2020.5, 2021.

Results of Operations

We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures utilized by management. Operating margin, which is presented in the following tables, is an important measure used by management to evaluate the economic performance of our core operations. Operating margin is not a generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measure, but the components of operating margin are computed using amounts that are determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of operating margin to operating profit, which is itsthe nearest comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in the following tables. Operating profit includes expense items, such as depreciation, amortization and impairment expense and general and administrative (“G&A”) expense, which management does not focus on when evaluating the core profitability of our separate operating segments. Additionally, product margin, which management primarily uses to evaluate the profitability of our commodity-related activities, is provided in these tables. Product margin is a non-GAAP measure but itsthe components of product sales revenue and cost of product sales are determined in accordance with GAAP. Our gas liquids blending, fractionation and other commodity-related activities generate significant revenue. However, we believe the product margin from these activities, which takes into account the related cost of product sales, better represents itsthe importance to our results of operations.

During first quarter 2020, we revised our reporting segments. See Note 1 – Organization, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation of the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this report for a discussion of this matter.

Transportation and terminals revenue increased $5.0 million resulting from:
an increase in refined products revenue of $42.2 million primarily due to increased transportation revenue as a result of higher volumes versus the pandemic levels of 2020 due to the recovery in travel, economic and drilling activity as well as additional contributions from our Texas pipeline expansion projects. Transportation revenues for the current period also benefited from our mid-year 2021 tariff increase. These favorable items were partially offset by lower storage revenues due to lower utilization and rates following recent contract expirations; and
a decrease in crude oil revenue of $37.7 million primarily due to lower average tariff rates and reduced storage revenues. Average tariff rates decreased primarily as a result of the late 2020 expiration of several higher-priced contracts on our Longhorn pipeline, with much of this volume replaced by activities of our marketing affiliate. In addition, deficiency revenue recognized in the year-ago period did not recur in third quarter 2021. Storage revenues decreased primarily due to the 2020 period benefiting from increased short-term storage utilization at higher rates, with recent contract renewals at lower rates in the current period.
Operating expenses decreased by $11.1 million primarily resulting from:
an increase in refined products expenses of $0.4 million. An increase in integrity spending related to the timing of maintenance work, higher power costs due to higher volume shipped and higher property taxes were mainly offset by favorable product overages (which reduce operating expenses); and
a decrease in crude oil expenses of $11.9 million primarily due to a decrease in integrity spending related to the timing of maintenance work, lower fees paid to Seabrook for ancillary services and favorable product overages.

Product margin increased $1.2 million primarily due to recognition of losses on futures contracts in third quarter 2020 offset by lower margins and lower sales volumes on our gas liquids blending and fractionation activities in the current period.

Other operating income (expense) was $5.5 million favorable in part due to reduced estimates for retained liabilities related to our 2020 marine terminals sale and lower losses recognized on a basis derivative agreement during the current period.
Earnings of non-controlled entities decreased $2.7 million primarily due to the sale of a portion of our interest in MVP during second quarter 2021. We also earned less from Seabrook due to lower throughput fees and additional depreciation for recently-constructed assets and BridgeTex due to less favorable product overages. These decreases were partially offset by additional earnings from Powder Springs due to gains on futures contracts in the current quarter.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment expense decreased $7.0 million primarily due to the impairment in third quarter 2020 of certain terminalling assets.
G&A expense increased $9.2 million primarily due to higher incentive compensation costs as a result of improved financial results in 2021.

Interest expense, net of interest income and interest capitalized, increased $3.9 million due to lower capitalized interest as a result of reduced ongoing expansion capital spending and higher debt outstanding. Our weighted-average debt outstanding was $5.1 billion in third quarter 2021 compared to $4.9 billion in third quarter 2020. The weighted average interest rate was 4.4% in third quarter 2021 compared to 4.3% in third quarter 2020.
37




Gain on disposition of assets of $3.2 million in the current period resulted from true-ups for previous asset sales, including the final working capital adjustments related to the sale of a portion of our interest in MVP.

Income from discontinued operations increased by $8.4 million due to improved product margin for our independent terminals as a result of higher gas liquids blending volume sold at increased pricing and less depreciation now that the assets are classified as held for sale.

Transportation and terminals revenue decreased $32.9 million resulting from:
a decrease in refined products revenue of $31.8 million. Transportation volumes decreased primarily due to lower demand in the current year associated with the ongoing impact from COVID-19 and related restrictions as well as reduced drilling activity in response to the lower commodity price environment. Revenues also decreased due to the sale of three marine terminals in first quarter 2020 and discontinuation of the ammonia pipeline operations in late 2019. These declines were partially offset by an increase in the average tariff rate in the current period as well as contributions from the recently-constructed East Houston-to-Hearne pipeline segment that became operational in late 2019 and the West Texas expansion that began operations in the third quarter of 2020. Average tariff rates increased as a result of the 2020 mid-year adjustment as well as reduced short-haul shipments on the South Texas pipelines, which move at a lower rate; and
a decrease in crude oil revenue of $0.7 million. Lower third-party spot shipments on our Longhorn pipeline due to less favorable differentials between the Permian Basin and Houston were largely offset by the activities of our marketing affiliate. Average tariff rates increased as a result of lower shipments on our Houston distribution system, which move at a lower rate than longer-haul shipments. Lower transportation volume on our Houston distribution system resulted primarily from a change in the way customers now contract for services at our Seabrook export facility, and was offset by incremental revenue from the related terminal transfer fee. Tender deduction revenues also decreased due to lower crude oil prices. These declines were partially offset by increased storage revenues as more contract storage was utilized at higher rates.
Operating expenses decreased by $7.3 million primarily resulting from:
a decrease in refined products expenses of $8.9 million primarily due to timing of planned integrity spending as well as no costs in the current period associated with the sold or discontinued assets, partially offset by less favorable product overages (which reduce operating expenses); and
an increase in crude oil expenses of $2.1 million due to the timing of integrity spending and less favorable product overages.

Product margin decreased $12.7 million primarily due to recognition of losses on futures contracts in third quarter 2020 compared to gains in 2019, partially offset by higher sales volume related to our fractionation activities.
Other operating income (expense) was $2.6 million unfavorable primarily due to insurance proceeds received in third quarter 2019 related to Hurricane Harvey.
Earnings of non-controlled entities decreased $10.9 million primarily due to decreased earnings from BridgeTex Pipeline Company, LLC (“BridgeTex”) mainly due to lower volume resulting from less spot shipments based on unfavorable market conditions and customer use of previously earned credits. We also earned less from Saddlehorn Pipeline Company, LLC (“Saddlehorn”) due to our reduced ownership interest. These decreases were partially offset by additional earnings from MVP Terminalling, LLC (“MVP”) from the recent start-up of newly-constructed storage and dock assets.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment expense increased $15.2 million primarily due to the impairment in third quarter 2020 of certain terminalling assets and more assets placed into service.
G&A expense decreased $13.1 million primarily due to lower incentive compensation accruals to reflect the impacts of COVID-19 related reductions in economic activity and the significant decline in commodity prices.

Interest expense, net of interest income and interest capitalized, increased $5.4 million primarily due to lower capitalized interest as a result of lower ongoing construction project spending and higher outstanding debt. Our weighted-average debt outstanding was $4.9 billion in third quarter 2020 compared to $4.6 billion in third quarter 2019. The weighted average interest rate was 4.3% in third quarter 2020 compared to 4.6% in third quarter 2019.
37




Gain on disposition of assets was $2.6 million unfavorable due to additional gain recorded in third quarter 2019 related to our discontinued Delaware Basin pipeline construction project that was subsequently sold to a third party.

Other expense was $1.1 million favorable due to lower pension-related costs in the current period.

During the 2021 period, we used $106.5 million respectively.for capital expenditures. Also, during 2021, we sold a portion of our interest in MVP for cash proceeds of $271.0 million. During the 2020 period, we used $371.2$357.1 million for capital expenditures, which included $0.2 million for undivided joint interest projects for which cash was received from a third party.expenditures. Also during 2020, we sold three marine terminals for cash proceeds of $251.8 million and sold a portion of our interest in Saddlehorn for cash proceeds of $79.9 million. Additionally, we contributed capital of $73.7 million in conjunction with our joint venture capital projects, which we account for as investments in non-controlled entities. During the 2019 period, we used $718.6 million for capital expenditures, which included $87.9 million for undivided joint interest projects for which cash was received from a third party. Additionally, we contributed net capital of $150.6 million in conjunction with our joint ventures, of which $145.6 million related to capital projects.
Financing Activities. Net cash used by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 20192020 and 20202021 was $305.6$794.1 million and $794.1$1,041.2 million, respectively. During the 2021 period, we paid distributions of $685.0 million to our unitholders and repurchased common units for $473.1 million. Additionally, we had net commercial paper borrowings of $123.0 million. Also, in January 2021, our equity-based incentive compensation awards that vested December 31, 2020 were settled by issuing 163,007 common units and distributing those units to the long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) participants, resulting in payments primarily associated with tax withholdings of $6.2 million. During the 2020 period, we paid cash distributions of $697.3 million to our unitholders and maderepurchased common unit repurchases ofunits for $252.0 million. Additionally, we received net proceeds of $499.4 million from the issuance of long-term senior notes and had net commercial paper borrowings of $248.0 million, which collectively were used to repay our $550.0 million of 4.25% notes due 2021. Also, in January 2020, our equity-based incentive compensation awards that vested December 31, 2019 were settled by issuing 284,643 common units and distributing those units to the long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”)LTIP participants, resulting in payments primarily associated with tax withholdings of $14.7 million. During the 2019 period, we paid cash distributions of $688.6 million to our unitholders. Additionally, we received net proceeds of $996.4 million from borrowings under long-term notes, which were used to repay our $550.0 million of 6.55% notes due 2019 and outstanding commercial borrowings at that time. Also, in January 2019, our equity-based incentive compensation awards that vested December 31, 2018 were settled by issuing 208,268 common units and distributing those units to the LTIP participants, resulting in payments primarily associated with tax withholdings of $9.8 million.
The quarterly distribution amount related to our third-quarter 2020 financial resultsthird quarter 2021 earnings is $1.0375 per unit (to be paid in fourth quarter 2020) is $1.0275 per unit.2021).  If we were to continue paying cash distributions at this level on the number of common units
43



currently outstanding, total cash distributions of approximately $922$898 million would be paid to our unitholders related to 20202021 earnings. Management believes we will have sufficient DCF to fund these distributions.
During 2020, we initiated our common unit repurchase program, with authorization to repurchase up to $750 million of our common units through 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we repurchased 5.0 million of our common units for $252 million. The timing, price and actual number of common units repurchased will depend on a number of factors including our expected expansion capital spending needs, excess cash available,
42



balance sheet metrics, legal and regulatory requirements, market conditions and the trading price of our common units.

Capital Requirements

Our businesses require continual investments to maintain, upgrade or enhance existing operations and to ensure compliance with safety and environmental regulations. Capital spending for our business consists primarily of:
Maintenance capital expenditures. These expenditures include costs required to maintain equipment reliability and safety and to address environmental or other regulatory requirements rather than to generate incremental DCF; and
Expansion capital expenditures. These expenditures are undertaken primarily to generate incremental DCF and include costs to acquire additional assets to grow our business and to expand or upgrade our existing facilities and to construct new assets, which we refer to collectively as organic growth projects. Organic growth projects include, for example, capital expenditures that increase storage or throughput volumes or develop pipeline connections to new supply sources.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020,2021, our maintenance capital spending was $81.2 million.$50.2 million, including $1.5 million for discontinued operations. For 2020,2021, we expect to spend approximately $95$80 million on maintenance capital.

During the first nine months of 2020,2021, we spent $236.3$62.0 million for our expansion capital projects, including $0.2 million for discontinued operations, and contributed $73.7$5.6 million for expansion capital projects in conjunction with our joint ventures. Based on the progress of expansion projects already underway, we expect to spend approximately $400$80 million in 20202021 and $40$20 million in 20212022 to complete our current slate of expansion capital projects.

In addition, we may repurchase our common units through our unit repurchase program (see Item 2 – Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds of Part II of this report for additional details). We may also repurchase portions of our existing long-term debt from time-to-time through open market transactions, tender offers or privately-negotiated transactions.
Liquidity

Cash generated from operations is a key source of liquidity for funding debt service, maintenance capital expenditures, quarterly distributions and unit repurchases.repurchases of our common units. Additional liquidity for purposes other than quarterly distributions, such as expansion capital expenditures, and debt repayments, is available through borrowings under our commercial paper program and revolving credit facility, as well as from other borrowings or issuances of debt or common units (see Note 67Debt and Note 1415Partners’Partners Capital and Distributions of the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this report for detail of our borrowings and changes in partners’ capital). If capital markets do not provide us access to capital or the ability to issue additional debt or equity securities on acceptable terms, our business may be adversely affected, and we may not be able to acquire additional assets and businesses, fund organic growth projects or continue paying cash distributions at the current level.

Pipeline Tariff Changes. TheHistorically, the tariff rates on approximately 40% of our refined products shipments have been regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) regulatesprimarily through an annual index methodology, and nearly all the remaining rates chargedare adjustable at our discretion based on market factors. Due to the recent expansion of our interstate common carrier pipelines. We increasedTexas refined products pipeline system, for which rates are not regulated by the FERC, we expect a smaller percent of our total refined products shipments to be subject to the index methodology in the future. The new 5-year FERC index beginning July 2021 is based on the change in the producer price index for finished goods plus 0.78%. Based on this methodology, we decreased our index rates by approximately 2.0% in0.6% on July 1, 2021, with an average increase of more than 4% on the 40%remainder of our refined products markets that are subject to the FERC’s index methodology on July 1, 2020. In the 60% of our remaining refined products markets, we increased ourtariff rates, by an average of nearly 4.5%, forresulting in an overall average refined products ratemid-year tariff increase of 3.5%nearly 3%. Most of the tariffs on our long-haul crude oil pipelines are established at negotiated rates that generally provide for annual adjustments in line with changes in the FERC index, subject to certain modifications. As a result, we also increasedchanged the rates on the majority of our crude oil pipelines by approximately 2.0%between 0% and 2% in July 2020.

43



The FERC-approved indexing method for the past five years has been the annual change in the producer price index for finished goods plus 1.23%.  In June 2020, the FERC issued a Notice of Inquiry (“NOI”) to initiate a review of the rate index to be utilized over the next five-year period beginning July 1, 2021.  The FERC’sproposal in the NOI preliminarily recommends the use of the producer price index for finished goods plus 0.09% as the new index level to calculate annual tariff changes.  The FERC has received comments from industry participants on the NOI and is in the process of finalizing the new index level.

Commodity Derivative Agreements. Certain of our business activities result in our owning various commodities, which exposes us to commodity price risk. We generally use forward physical commodity contracts and exchange-traded futures contracts to hedge against changes in prices of the commodities that we expect to sell or purchase in future periods. We also entered intoare a party to a basis derivative agreement for which settlements are determined based on the basis differential of crude oil prices at different market locations.

ForSee Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk for further information regarding the quantities of refined products and crude oil hedged at September 30, 20202021 and the fair value of open hedge and basis derivative contracts at that date, please see Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.date.

Related Party Transactions. See Note 1314Related Party Transactions in Item 1 of Part I of this report for detail of our related party transactions.


ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We may be exposed to market risk through changes in commodity prices and interest rates and have established policies to monitor and mitigate these market risks. We use derivative agreements to help manage our exposure to commodity price and interest rate risks. 

Commodity Price Risk

Our commodity price risk primarily arises from our gas liquids blending and fractionation activities, and from managing product overages and shortages associated with our refined products and crude oil pipelines and terminals. We generally use derivatives such as forward physical contracts and exchange-traded futures contracts to help us manage our commodity price risk.

Forward physical contracts that qualify for and are elected as normal purchases and sales are accounted for using traditional accrual accounting. As of September 30, 2020,2021, we had commitments under forward purchase and sale contracts as follows (in millions):

and Hedging, for our open contracts and as a result we accounted for these contracts as economic hedges, with changes in fair value recognized currently in earnings. The fair value of these open futures contracts, representing 3.14.9 million barrels of petroleum products we expect to sell and 0.61.2 million barrels of gas liquids we expect to purchase, was a net liability of $1.6$22.3 million. With respect to these contracts, a $10.00 per barrel increase (decrease) in the prices of petroleum products we expect to sell would result in a $31.0$49.0 million decrease (increase) in our operating profit, while a $10.00 per barrel increase (decrease) in the price of gas liquids we expect to purchase
44



would result in a $6.0$12.0 million increase (decrease) in our operating profit. These increases or decreases in operating profit would be substantially offset by higher or lower product sales revenue or cost of product sales when the physical sale or purchase of those products occurs.occurs, respectively. These contracts may be for the purchase or sale of products in markets different from those in which we are attempting to hedge our exposure, and the resultingrelated hedges may not eliminate all price risks.

During 2019, we entered into a basis derivative agreement with a joint venture co-owner’s affiliate, and, contemporaneously, that affiliate entered into an intrastate transportation services agreement with the joint venture. Settlements under the basis derivative agreement are determined based on the basis differential of crude oil prices at different market locations and a notional volume of 30,000 barrels per day. As a result, we are exposed to the differential in the forward price curves for crude oil in West Texas and the Houston Gulf Coast. With respect to this agreement, a $0.50 per barrel increase (decrease) in the differential would result in an approximately $2.0 million increase (decrease) in our operating profit.
Interest Rate Risk

Our use of variable rate debt and any future issuances of fixed rate debt expose us to interest rate risk. As of September 30, 2020,2021, we did not have any variable rate debt outstanding.


ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. We performed this evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our general partner’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Based upon that evaluation, our general partner’s CEO and CFO concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed so that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and the CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 20202021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Butane Blending Patent Infringement Proceeding.  On October 4, 2017, Sunoco Partners Marketing & Terminals L.P. (“Sunoco”) brought an action for patent infringement in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (“Magellan”) and Powder Springs Logistics, LLC (“Powder Springs”) are infringing patents related to butane blending at the Powder Springs facility located in Powder Springs, Georgia. Sunoco subsequently submitted pleadings alleging that Magellan is also infringing various patents related to butane blending at nine Magellan facilities, in addition to Powder Springs. Sunoco is seeking monetary damages, attorneys’ fees and a permanent injunction enjoining Magellan and Powder Springs from infringing the subject patents. We deny and are vigorously defending against all claims asserted by Sunoco. Although it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome, we believe the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

New Tank Construction Proceeding. In May 2020, we received a Notice of Probable Violation and Proposed Civil Penalty from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration alleging a violation related to a new tank construction project and associated release of product at our terminal in Cushing, Oklahoma. The matter was resolved in September 2020 for approximately $125,000.

Valves and Overfill Protection Systems Proceeding. In October 2019, we received a Notice of Probable Violation, Proposed Civil Penalty and Proposed Compliance Order from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration alleging violations related to the records and maps necessary for the safe operation of remotely controlled valves at two facilities and the failure to inspect the overfill protection system on four breakout tanks at our terminal in Des Moines, Iowa.  The penalties associated with these alleged violations could exceed $100,000. While the results cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Hurricane Harvey Enforcement Proceeding. In July 2018, we received a Notice of Enforcement letter from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality alleging two air emission violations at our Galena Park, Texas terminal that occurred during Hurricane Harvey in third quarter 2017.  The penalties associated with these alleged violations could exceed $100,000. While the results cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

U.S. Oil Recovery, EPA ID No.: TXN000607093 Superfund Site. We have liability at the U.S. Oil Recovery Superfund Site in Pasadena, Texas as a potential responsible party (“PRP”) under Section 107(a) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”). As a result of the EPA’s Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Removal Action, filed August 25, 2011, EPA Region 6, CERCLA Docket No. 06-10-11, we voluntarily entered into the PRP group responsible for the site investigation, stabilization and subsequent site cleanup. We have paid approximately $42,000 associated with the assessment phase. Until this assessment phase has been completed, we cannot reasonably estimate our proportionate share of the remediation costs associated with this site.  While the results cannot be reasonably estimated, we believe the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Lake Calumet Cluster Site, EPA ID No.: ILD000716852 Superfund Site.  We have liability at the Lake Calumet Cluster Superfund Site in Chicago, Illinois as a PRP under Sections 107(a) and 113(f)(1) of CERCLA.  As a result of the EPA’s Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order for Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study of June 2013, we voluntarily entered into the PRP group responsible for the investigation, cleanup and installation of an appropriate clay cap over the site.  We have paid approximately $9,000 associated with the Remedial
46



Investigation/Feasibility Study and cleanup costs to date.  Our projected portion of the estimated cap installation is $55,000.  While the results cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

We and the non-controlled entities in which we own an interest are a party to various other claims, legal actions and complaints. While the results cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the ultimate resolution of these claims, legal actions and complaints after consideration of amounts accrued, insurance coverage or other indemnification arrangements will not have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations, financial position or cash flows. 


ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

In addition to the information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not our only risks. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected, and could continue to adversely affect, our business.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy.  In response to the pandemic, governments around the world have implemented stringent measures to help reduce the spread of the virus, including stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions and other measures.  Due to reductions in economic activity, the world is experiencing reduced demand for petroleum products and depressed petroleum products commodity prices, which has adversely affected our business.  Continuing uncertainty regarding the global impact of COVID-19 is likely to result in continued weakness in demand for the services we provide.  The reduction in refined products demand and lower crude oil prices have combined to put significant downward pressure on domestic crude oil production, and a sustained reduction in crude oil production could cause delays in the timing of our recognition of revenue from take-or-pay pipeline transportation commitments.  These factors have also significantly decreased the creditworthiness of certain of our crude oil transportation customers, resulting in an increased risk of customer defaults.  Customers and vendors could also seek to assert claims for relief from some of their obligations on the basis of force majeure. We may also experience disruptions to supply chains and the availability and efficiency of our workforce as a result of the pandemic, which could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business and operations.  The extent and duration of the impacts these events will have on our results of operations is unclear but will likely be material and may impact our ability to pay cash distributions.

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Common Units

In first quarter 2020, we announced that our general partner’s board of directors authorized the repurchase of up toinitiated a $750 million of our common unit repurchase program, which allowed us to repurchase units through 2022. We completed the repurchases authorized under this program in September 2021. In October 2021, this program was expanded by $750 million to allow unit repurchases totaling $1.5 billion through December 31, 2024. We intend to purchase our common units from time-to-time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases and negotiated transactions, all in compliance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange CommissionAct Rules 10b-18, 10b5-1 or both and other applicable legal requirements. The timing, price and actual number of common units repurchased will depend on a number of factors including our expected expansion capital spending, needs, excess cash available, balance sheet metrics, legal and regulatory requirements, market conditions and the trading price of our common units. The repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common units, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

47The following table provides details of our unit repurchases in 2021 under our initial $750 million program:
