(2) Station operations consist of convenience store and prepared food sales, rental income and sundries. (3) Product margin is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management and external users of the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements to assess its business. The table above includes a reconciliation of product margin on a combined basis to gross profit, a directly comparable GAAP measure. Approximately 122 million gallons and 110 million gallons of the GDSO segment’s sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 342 million gallons and 314 million gallons of the GDSO segment’s sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were supplied from petroleum products and renewable fuels sourced by the Wholesale segment. The Commercial segment’s sales were predominantly sourced by the Wholesale segment. These intra-segment sales are not reflected as sales in the Wholesale segment as they are eliminated. A reconciliation of the totals reported for the reportable segments to the applicable line items in the consolidated financial statements is as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Combined gross profit $ 286,049 $ 228,520 $ 789,068 $ 693,243 Operating costs and expenses not allocated to operating segments: Selling, general and administrative expenses 70,495 63,479 212,646 192,431 Operating expenses 137,126 115,944 387,235 334,676 Amortization expense 2,288 2,017 6,146 6,119 Net gain on sale and disposition of assets (7,805) (897) (10,609) (2,141) Long-lived asset impairment 492 — 492 — Total operating costs and expenses 202,596 180,543 595,910 531,085 Operating income 83,453 47,977 193,158 162,158 (Loss) income from equity method investments (147) 1,180 (1,872) 2,384 Interest expense (35,129) (21,089) (100,356) (64,963) Income tax expense (2,255) (1,260) (4,461) (2,351) Net income $ 45,922 $ 26,808 $ 86,469 $ 97,228 The Partnership’s foreign assets and foreign sales were immaterial as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Segment Assets The Partnership’s terminal assets are allocated to the Wholesale and Commercial segments, and its retail gasoline stations are allocated to the GDSO segment. Due to the commingled nature and uses of the remainder of the Partnership’s assets, it is not reasonably possible for the Partnership to allocate these assets among its reportable segments. The table below presents total assets by reportable segment at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands): Wholesale Commercial GDSO Unallocated (1) Total September 30, 2024 $ 1,188,573 $ — $ 1,872,341 $ 604,201 $ 3,665,115 December 31, 2023 $ 862,850 $ — $ 1,910,058 $ 673,103 $ 3,446,011 (1) Includes the Partnership’s equity method investments (see Note 11). |
