NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Nature of the Business Steel Partners Holdings L.P. ("SPLP" or the "Company") is a diversified global holding company that engages in multiple businesses, including diversified industrial products, energy, defense, supply chain management and logistics, banking, food products and services, sports, training, education, and the entertainment and lifestyle industries. The Company works with its businesses to increase corporate value for all stakeholders by utilizing Steel Partners Operational Excellence programs, the Steel Partners Purchasing Council, Steel Partners Corporate Services, balance sheet improvements, capital allocation policies and growth initiatives. All of the Company's programs are focused on helping SPLP companies strengthen their competitive advantage and increase their profitability, while enabling them to achieve operational excellence and enhanced customer satisfaction. Steel Partners Holdings GP Inc. ("SPH GP"), a Delaware corporation, is the general partner of SPLP and is wholly-owned by SPLP. The Company is managed by SP General Services LLC (the "Manager"), pursuant to the terms of an amended and restated management agreement (the "Management Agreement") discussed in further detail in Note 19 - "Related Party Transactions." Basis of Presentation Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the comparable 2016 presentation. During 2015, one of the Company's subsidiaries, Steel Excel Inc. ("Steel Excel"), identified an error related to the manner in which the provision for income taxes had reflected the tax effects related to unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities during 2014 and 2013. As a result, the Company recorded an adjustment to correct the error in the first quarter of 2015 to its tax provision of approximately $3,500 , which is included in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority or wholly-owned subsidiaries, which include the following: Ownership as of December 31, 2016 2015 BNS Holdings Liquidating Trust ("BNS Liquidating Trust") 84.9 % 84.9 % DGT Holdings Corp. ("DGT") (a) 100.0 % 100.0 % Handy & Harman Ltd. ("HNH") 69.9 % 70.1 % Steel Services Ltd ("Steel Services") 100.0 % 100.0 % Steel Excel 64.2 % 58.3 % WebFinancial Holding Corporation ("WFHC") (b) 91.2 % 90.7 % (a) DGT's financial statements are recorded on a two-month lag, and as a result the Company's consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 includes DGT's activity as of and for its twelve months ended October 31, 2016. (b) WFHC owns 100% of WebBank and 100% of WebFinancial Holding LLC ("WFH LLC") (formerly known as CoSine Communications, Inc.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates in Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues, expenses, unrealized gains and losses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates include: (1) the valuation allowances of accounts receivable and inventory; (2) the valuation of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets and associated companies; (3) deferred tax assets; (4) environmental liabilities; (5) fair value of derivatives; (6) post-employment benefit liabilities; (7) estimates and assumptions used in the determination of fair value of certain securities, such as whether declines in value of securities are other than temporary; and (8) estimates of loan losses. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the consolidated financial statements; and, due to substantial holdings in and/or restrictions on certain investments, the value that may be realized could differ from the estimated fair value. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and deposits in depository institutions, financial institutions and banks. Cash at December 31, 2016 and 2015 also includes $277,054 and $80,226 , respectively, of WebBank cash at the Federal Reserve Bank and in its Federal Funds account at its correspondent banks and $624 and $1,490 , respectively, of WebBank Federal Funds sold. The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include qualifying money market funds and exclude amounts where availability is restricted by loan agreements or other contractual provisions. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value. There is a significant concentration of cash that, during the periods presented, exceeded the federal deposit insurance limits and exposed the Company to credit risk. SPLP does not anticipate any losses due to this concentration of cash at December 31, 2016 . Restricted Cash Restricted cash at December 31, 2016 and 2015 primarily represents cash collateral for certain short sales of corporate securities (see Note 12 - "Financial Instruments" for additional information). Marketable Securities and Long-Term Investments Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and consist of short-term deposits, corporate debt and equity instruments, and mutual funds. The Company classifies its marketable securities as current assets based on the nature of the securities and their availability for use in current operations. Long-term investments consist of available-for-sale securities and equity method investments. Held-to-maturity securities are classified in Other non-current assets. SPLP determines the appropriate classifications of its investments at the acquisition date and re-evaluates the classifications at each balance sheet date. • Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCI") as a separate component of SPLP's Partners' capital. • Associated companies represent equity method investments in companies where our ownership is between 20% and 50% of the outstanding equity and the Company has the ability to exercise influence, but not control, over the investee. For equity method investments where the fair value option has been elected, unrealized gains and losses are reported in the Company's consolidated statement of operations as part of income (loss) from equity method investments and includes income (loss) of certain associated companies and income (loss) from other investments - related party. For the equity method investments where the fair value option has not been elected, SPLP records the investment at cost and subsequently increases or decreases the investment by its proportionate share of the net income or losses and other comprehensive income of the investee. • Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost, adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. Dividend and interest income is recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are included in earnings and are derived using the specific-identification method. Commission expense is recorded as a reduction of sales proceeds on investment sales. Commission expense on purchases is included in the cost of investments on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Other Than Temporary Impairment If the Company believes a decline in the market value of any available-for-sale, equity method or held-to-maturity security below cost is other than temporary, a loss is charged to earnings, which establishes a new cost basis for the security. Impairment losses are included in Asset impairment charges in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. SPLP's determination of whether a security is other than temporarily impaired incorporates both quantitative and qualitative information. The Company considers a number of factors including, but not limited to, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the length of time expected for recovery, the financial condition of the issuer, the reason for the decline in fair value, changes in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date, the ability and intent to hold investments to maturity, and other factors specific to the individual investment. Specifically, for held-to-maturity securities, the Company considers whether it plans to sell the security or it is more-likely-than-not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost. The credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment loss is recognized in earnings and the non-credit component is recognized in AOCI in situations where the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is more likely-than-not that the Company will not be required to sell the security prior to recovery. If there is an other-than-temporary impairment in the fair value of any individual security classified as held-to-maturity, the Company writes down the security to fair value with a corresponding credit loss portion charged to earnings, and the non-credit portion being charged to Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. SPLP's assessment involves a high degree of judgment and accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those estimates and judgments. Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company recognizes bad debt expense through an allowance account using estimates based primarily on management's evaluation of the financial condition of the customer, historical experience, credit quality, whether any amounts are currently past due, the length of time accounts may be past due, previous loss history and management's determination of a customer's current ability to pay its obligations. Trade accounts receivable balances are charged off against the allowance when it is determined that the receivables will not be recovered, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to recovery of accounts written off. The Company believes that the credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to this credit evaluation process. As of December 31, 2016 , the top 10 of the Company's largest customer balances accounted for 18% of the Company's trade receivables. Loans Receivable, Including Loans Held for Sale WebBank's loan activities include several lending arrangements with companies where it originates private label credit card and other loans for consumers and small businesses. These loans are classified as Loans receivable and are typically sold after origination. As part of these arrangements WebBank earns origination fees that are recorded in non-interest income. Fees earned from these lending arrangements are recorded as fee income. WebBank also purchases participations in commercial and industrial loans through loan syndications. Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the estimated life of the loan. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. A valuation allowance is recorded when cost exceeds fair value based on our determination at the time of reclassification and periodically thereafter. Gains and losses are recorded in noninterest income based on the difference between sales proceeds and carrying value and impairments from reductions in carrying value. Loans are reported as past due when either principal or interest is due and unpaid for a period of 30 days or more. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. Loan Impairment and Allowance for Loan Losses A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that WebBank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including schedules interest payments. When a loan has been identified as being impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, when appropriate, the loan's observable fair value or the fair value of the collateral (less any selling costs) if the loan is collateral-dependent. If the measurement of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest, net of deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), an impairment is recognized by creating or adjusting an existing allocation of the allowance for loan losses, or by charging down the loan to its value determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when the uncollectability of a loan or receivable balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis and is based upon a periodic review of the collectability of the amounts due in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as doubtful, substandard, or loss. For such loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience and is adjusted for qualitative factors to cover uncertainties that could affect the estimate of probable losses. The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). The periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on WebBank's past loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the debtor's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. Inventories Inventories are generally stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method or average cost method) or market (see "New or Recently Adopted Accounting Standards" below for new accounting rules effective January 1, 2017 related to the valuation of inventory). Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method for certain precious metal inventory held in the U.S., and remaining precious metal inventory is primarily carried at fair value. For precious metal inventory, no segregation among raw materials, work in process and finished products is practicable. For other inventory, the cost of work in progress and finished goods comprises the cost of raw materials, direct labor and overhead costs attributable to the production of inventory. Non-precious metal inventories are evaluated for estimated excess and obsolescence based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions, and are adjusted accordingly. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected, future write-downs may be required. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Net Goodwill, which is not amortized, represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. We review goodwill for impairment indicators throughout the year and test for impairment annually in the fourth quarter. An entity can choose between two testing approaches: a. Step 0 or Qualitative approach - An entity may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. In evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, an entity shall assess relevant events and circumstances. Examples of such events and circumstances would include pertinent macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and other factors. An entity has an unconditional option to bypass this qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the goodwill impairment test. An entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. b. Step 1 or Quantitative approach - The fair value of a reporting unit is calculated and compared with its carrying amount. There are several methods that may be used to estimate a reporting unit's fair value, including market quotations, asset and liability fair values and other valuation techniques, including, but not limited to, discounted projected future net earnings or net cash flows and multiples of earnings. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, there is no indication of impairment and further testing is not required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then a second step of testing is required ("Step 2"). The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. For 2016, the Company utilized a qualitative approach for all of its reporting units, except for one reporting unit within its Diversified Industrial segment, to assess its goodwill as of its most recent assessment date. As a result of the assessment, a goodwill impairment of $24,254 was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2016 (see Note 7 - "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Net"). Other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, while other intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable (see "Long-Lived Asset Testing" below). Intangible assets with indefinite lives, which are only within the Diversified Industrial segment, are tested for impairment at least annually, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Companies can use the same two testing approaches for indefinite lived intangibles as for goodwill. For 2016, the Company utilized a qualitative approach to assess its intangible assets with indefinite lives as of its most recent assessment date, and the results indicated no impairment in 2016. Derivatives The Company uses various hedging and swap instruments to reduce the impact of changes in precious metal prices, interest costs on variable interest debt and the effect of foreign currency fluctuations. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815, Derivatives and Hedging , these instruments are recorded as either fair value hedges, economic hedges, cash flow hedges or derivatives with no hedging designation. Precious Metals HNH's precious metal and commodity inventories are subject to market price fluctuations. HNH enters into commodity futures and forward contracts to mitigate the impact of price fluctuations on its precious and certain non-precious metal inventories that are not subject to fixed price contracts. Fair Value Hedges . The fair values of these derivatives are recognized as derivative assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The net change in fair value of the derivative assets and liabilities, and the change in the fair value of the underlying hedged inventory, are recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, and such amounts principally offset each other due to the effectiveness of the hedges. The fair value hedges are associated primarily with HNH's precious metal inventory carried at fair value. Economic Hedges . As these derivatives are not designated as accounting hedges under ASC 815, they are accounted for as derivatives with no hedge designation. The derivatives are marked to market, and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in current period earnings in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The economic hedges are associated primarily with the Company's precious metal inventory valued using the LIFO method. Interest Rate Swaps HNH has entered into interest rate swap agreements in the past in order to economically hedge a portion of its debt, which was subject to variable interest rates. As these derivatives were not designated as accounting hedges under U.S. GAAP, they are accounted for as derivatives with no hedge designation. HNH recorded the gains and losses both from the mark-to-market adjustments and net settlements in interest expense in the Company's consolidated statements of operations as the hedges were intended to offset interest rate movements. Foreign Currency Forward Contracts API enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its receivables and payables denominated in other currencies. In addition, API enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the value of its future sales denominated in Euros and the value of its future purchases denominated in USD. These hedges have settlement dates ranging through December 2017. The forward contracts that are used to hedge the risk of foreign exchange movement on its receivables and payables and are accounted for as fair value hedges under ASC 815. The fair values of these derivatives are recognized as derivative assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The net change in fair value of the derivative assets and liabilities are recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The forward contracts that are used to hedge the value of API's future sales and purchases are accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815. These hedges are fully effective and accordingly, the changes in fair value are recorded in AOCI and, at maturity, any gain or loss on the forward contract is reclassified from AOCI into the Company's consolidated statements of operations. WebBank - Derivative Financial Instruments WebBank's derivative financial instruments represent on-going economic interests in loans made after they are sold. These derivatives are carried at fair value on a gross basis in Other non-current assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 . Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of these derivative instruments are accounted for in the Company's consolidated statements of operations in Financial services revenue. Fair value represents the estimated amounts that WebBank would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date based on a discounted cash flow model for the same or similar instruments. WebBank does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative or trading purposes. Property, Plant and Equipment, Net Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recorded principally on the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range is as follows: machinery & equipment 3 to 15 years and buildings and improvements 10 to 30 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the terms of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Interest cost is capitalized for qualifying assets during the assets' acquisition period. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense and renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gain or loss on dispositions is recorded in other income. Long-Lived Asset Testing The Company estimates the depreciable lives of property, plant and equipment, and reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events, or changes in circumstances, indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If the carrying values of the long-lived assets exceed the sum of the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying values exceeds their fair values. The Company performs such assessments at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities, which is generally at the plant level, operating company level or the reporting unit level, dependent on the level of interdependencies in the Company's operations. Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. The Company considers various factors in determining whether an impairment test is necessary, including among other things: a significant or prolonged deterioration in operating results and projected cash flows; significant changes in the extent or manner in which assets are used; technological advances with respect to assets which would potentially render them obsolete; the Company's strategy and capital planning; and the economic climate in the markets it serves. When estimating future cash flows and if necessary, fair value, the Company makes judgments as to the expected utilization of assets and estimated future cash flows related to those assets. The Company considers historical and anticipated future results, general economic and market conditions, the impact of planned business and operational strategies and other information available at the time the estimates are made. The Company believes these estimates are reasonable; however, changes in circumstances or conditions could have a significant impact on its estimates, which might result in material impairment charges in the future. Business Combinations When the Company acquires a business, it allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interests based on their fair values at the acquisition date. Significant judgment may be used to determine these fair values including the use of appraisals, discounted cash flow models, market value for similar purchases, or other methods applicable to the circumstances. The assumptions and judgments made by the Company when recording business combinations will have an impact on reported results of operations in the future. Revenue Recognition Diversified Industrial and Energy Segments Revenue in our Diversified Industrial and Energy segments is recognized when the title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, the service has been provided to the customer, the price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. This condition is normally met when product has been shipped or the service performed. An allowance is provided for estimated returns and discounts based on experience. Revenue is reported net of any sales tax collected. Cash received from customers prior to shipment of goods, or otherwise not yet earned, is recorded as deferred revenue. Rental revenues are derived from the rental of certain equipment to the food industry where customers prepay for the rental period - usually 3 to 6 month periods. For prepaid rental contracts, sales revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. Service revenues are generated primarily by Steel Excel's energy and sports businesses and HNH's repair and maintenance work performed on equipment used at mass merchants, supermarkets and restaurants. HNH records all shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenue, and related costs are charged principally to cost of goods sold, when incurred. Our HNH subsidiary has also entered into rebate agreements with certain customers. These programs are typically structured to incentivize the customers to increase their annual purchases from HNH. The rebates are usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase amount, and such percentages may increase as the customer's level of purchases rise. Rebates are recorded as a reduction of net sales in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and are accounted for on an accrual basis. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015 , accrued rebates payable totaled $7,400 and $7,600 , respectively, and are included in Accrued liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Financial Services Segment WebBank generates revenue through a combination of interest income and non-interest income. Interest income is derived from interest and fees earned on loans and investments. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance, including amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the estimated life of the loan. Non-interest income is primarily derived from origination fees earned on loans, fee income on contractual lending arrangements, premiums on the sale of loans, and loan servicing fees. Concentration of Revenue No single customer accounted for 5% or more of the Company's consolidated revenues in 2016 , 2015 or 2014 . In 2016 , 2015 and 2014 the 10 largest customers accounted for approximately 19% , 24% and 28% , respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenues. Fair Value Measurements The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value (see Note 17 - "Fair Value Measurements"). Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair values of assets and liabilities are determined based on a three-level measurement input hierarchy. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are other than quoted market prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for an asset or liability. Level 2 inputs can include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in a market that is not active for identical assets or liabilities, or other inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are based on the best information available, and may include data developed by the Company. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees and non-employee directors as compensation expense, which is recognized in exchange for the services received. The compensation expense is based on the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant-date and is recognized as an expense over the service period of the recipients. Income Taxes SPLP and certain of its subsidiaries, as limited partnerships, are generally not responsible for federal and state income taxes and their profits and losses are passed directly to their partners for inclusion in their respective income tax returns. SPLP's subsidiaries that are corporate entities are subject to federal and state income taxes and file corporate income tax returns. SPLP's subsidiaries that are subject to income taxes use the liability method of accounting for such taxes. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Such subsidiaries evaluate the recoverability of deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that most positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is provided for and reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. SPLP's policy is to record estimated interest and penalties re |

ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS 2016 Acquisitions HNH's Acquisition of EME On September 30, 2016, SL Montevideo Technology, Inc. ("SMTI"), a subsidiary of SL Industries, Inc. ("SLI") (which was acquired by HNH in June 2016 as discussed further below), entered into an asset purchase agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation ("Hamilton"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, SMTI acquired from Hamilton certain assets of its Electromagnetic Enterprise division ("EME") used or useful in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, service, distribution, repair, and sale of electric motors, starters and generators for certain commercial applications, including for use in commercial hybrid electric vehicles and refrigeration and in the aerospace and defense sectors. The acquisition of EME expands SLI's product portfolio and diversifies its customer base. SMTI purchased the acquired net assets for approximately $62,575 in cash and assumption of certain ordinary course business liabilities, subject to adjustments related to working capital at closing and quality of earnings of the acquired business for the period of January 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016, each as provided for in the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement includes a guarantee by Hamilton of a minimum level of product purchases from SMTI by an affiliate of Hamilton for calendar years 2017, 2018, and 2019, in exchange for compliance by SMTI with certain operating covenants. The transaction was financed with additional borrowings under HNH's senior secured revolving credit facility. The following table summarizes the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date on a preliminary basis: Amount Assets: Trade and other receivables $ 4,249 Inventories 3,047 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 265 Property, plant and equipment 2,321 Goodwill 30,645 Other intangible assets 28,370 Total assets acquired 68,897 Liabilities: Accounts payable 3,440 Accrued liabilities 2,882 Total liabilities assumed 6,322 Net assets acquired $ 62,575 The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to finalization of valuations of certain acquired assets and liabilities. The goodwill of $30,645 arising from the acquisition consists largely of the synergies expected from combining the operations of SLI and EME. The goodwill is assigned to the Company's Diversified Industrial segment and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Other intangibles consist of customer relationships of $27,200 and customer order backlog of $1,200 . The customer order backlog is being amortized based on the expected period over which the orders will be fulfilled of 4 months. The customer relationships have been assigned a useful life of 15 years based on the limited turnover and long-standing relationships EME has with its existing customer base. The acquired customer relationships were valued using an excess earnings approach, and significant assumptions used in the valuation included the customer attrition rate assumed and the expected level of future sales. The amount of net sales and operating loss of the acquired business included in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016 were approximately $15,900 and $100 , respectively. EME's results of operations of EME are reported within the Company's Diversified Industrial segment. API's Acquisitions of Amsterdam Metallized Products B.V. and Hazen Paper Company On December 1, 2016, API acquired the manufacturing assets and business of Amsterdam Metallized Products B.V. ("AMP") in the Netherlands for approximately $7,800 . AMP is a leading global provider of packaging technologies for brand enhancement. The acquisition, which is not material to SPLP's operations, is part of API's strategy to further strengthen its brand enhancement mission of utilizing high-end material substrates for luxury packaging and other niche markets, adding new products to API's offerings and providing an entry point into new packaging sectors.

On July 27, 2016, API acquired Hazen Paper Company's ("Hazen") lamination facility and business in Osgood, Indiana for approximately $14,000 . The acquisition, which is not material to SPLP's operations, is part of API's strategy to focus on brand enhancement solutions for the packaging market, and it enables API to provide a combined foils and laminate offering to customers in the U.S., while giving broader coverage for its global customers. In connection with the Hazen acquisition, the Company has recorded property, plant and equipment, other intangible assets (primarily customer relationships) and goodwill totaling approximately $6,200 , $2,700 and $4,300 , respectively, on a preliminary basis. HNH's Acquisition of SLI On April 6, 2016, HNH entered into a definitive merger agreement with SLI, pursuant to which it commenced a cash tender offer to purchase all the outstanding shares of SLI's common stock, at a purchase price of $40.00 per share in cash ("Offer"). SLI designs, manufactures and markets power electronics, motion control, power protection, power quality electromagnetic equipment, and custom gears and gearboxes used in a variety of medical, commercial and military aerospace, computer, datacom, industrial, architectural and entertainment lighting, and telecom applications. Consummation of the Offer was subject to certain conditions, including the tender of a number of shares that constituted at least (1) a majority of SLI's outstanding shares and (2) 60% of SLI's outstanding shares not owned by HNH or any of its affiliates, as well as other customary conditions. SPLP beneficially owned approximately 25.1% of SLI's outstanding shares at the time of the Offer. On June 1, 2016, the conditions noted above, as well as all other conditions to the Offer were satisfied, and HNH successfully completed its tender offer through a wholly-owned subsidiary. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, the wholly-owned subsidiary merged with and into SLI, with SLI being the surviving corporation ("SLI Merger"). Upon completion of the SLI Merger, SLI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of HNH. The total merger consideration was approximately $161,985 , excluding related transaction fees and expenses. The merger consideration represents the aggregate cash merger consideration of approximately $122,191 paid by HNH to non-affiliates and the fair value of SPLP's previously held interest in SLI of approximately $39,794 , which represented the Company's previously held equity interest at a value of $40.00 per share. The funds necessary to consummate the Offer, the SLI Merger and to pay related fees and expenses were financed with additional borrowings under HNH's senior secured revolving credit facility. The following table summarizes the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date on a preliminary basis: Amount Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 4,985 Trade and other receivables 32,680 Inventories 24,088 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 8,254 Property, plant and equipment 23,950 Goodwill 54,150 Other intangible assets 92,326 Other non-current assets 257 Total assets acquired 240,690 Liabilities: Accounts payable 18,433 Accrued liabilities 18,521 Long-term debt 9,500 Deferred tax liabilities 26,469 Other non-current liabilities 5,782 Total liabilities assumed 78,705 Net assets acquired $ 161,985 The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to finalization of valuations of certain acquired assets and liabilities. The goodwill of $54,150 arising from the acquisition consists largely of the synergies expected from combining the operations of HNH and SLI.

Other intangibles consist primarily of acquired trade names of approximately $14,700 , customer relationships of approximately $59,900 , developed technology and patents of approximately $10,700 and customer order backlog of approximately $6,900 . The customer order backlog is being amortized based on the expected period over which the orders will be fulfilled, ranging from two to eight months . The remaining intangible assets have been assigned useful lives ranging from 10 to 15 years based on the long operating history, broad market recognition and continued demand for the associated brands, and the limited turnover and long-standing relationships SLI has with its existing customer base. The valuations of acquired trade names, developed technology and patents were performed utilizing a relief from royalty method, and significant assumptions used in the valuation included the royalty rate assumed and the expected level of future sales, as well as the rate of technical obsolescence for the developed technology and patents. The acquired customer relationships were valued using an excess earnings approach, and significant assumptions used in the valuation included the customer attrition rate assumed and the expected level of future sales. Included in accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities above is a total of $8,100 for existing and contingent liabilities relating to SLI's environmental matters, which are further discussed in Note 18 - "Commitments and Contingencies."

SLI's results of operations are reported within the Company's Diversified Industrial segment. 2015 Acquisitions HNH's Acquisition of JPS Effective July 2, 2015, HNH completed the acquisition of JPS Industries, Inc. ("JPS") pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of May 31, 2015. JPS is a manufacturer of mechanically formed glass, quartz and aramid substrate materials for specialty applications in a wide expanse of markets requiring highly engineered components. At the effective time of the Merger (as defined below), the acquisition subsidiary was merged with and into JPS ("Merger"), with JPS being the surviving corporation in the Merger, and each outstanding share of JPS common stock (other than shares held by HNH and its affiliates), including SPH Group Holdings LLC ("SPH Group Holdings"), a subsidiary of SPLP, and a significant stockholder of JPS, was converted into the right to receive $11.00 in cash. The total merger consideration was $114,493 which represents the aggregate cash merger consideration of $70,255 and the fair value of SPLP's previously held interest in JPS of $44,238 . The cash consideration was funded primarily by HNH and SPH Group Holdings. SPH Group Holding's funding of the aggregate merger consideration totaled approximately $4,510 , with the remainder funded by HNH, financed through additional borrowings under HNH's senior secured revolving credit facility. As a result of the closing of the Merger, JPS was indirectly owned by both HNH and SPH Group Holdings. Following the expiration of the 20-day period provided in Section 262(d)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law for JPS stockholders to exercise appraisal rights in connection with the Merger, and in accordance with an exchange agreement, dated as of May 31, 2015, by and between HNH and SPH Group Holdings, on July 31, 2015, HNH exchanged 1,429,407 shares of HNH's common stock with a value of $48,700 for all shares of JPS common stock held by SPH Group Holdings. As a result of the exchange, HNH owns 100% of JPS. The following table summarizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date: Amount Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 22 Trade and other receivables 21,201 Inventories 27,126 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 4,961 Property, plant and equipment 45,384 Goodwill 32,162 Other intangible assets 9,120 Deferred tax assets 19,788 Other non-current assets 3,112 Total assets acquired 162,876 Liabilities: Accounts payable 10,674 Accrued liabilities 5,838 Long-term debt 1,500 Accrued pension liabilities 30,367 Other non-current liabilities 4 Total liabilities assumed 48,383 Net assets acquired $ 114,493 The goodwill of $32,162 arising from the acquisition was assigned to SPLP's Diversified Industrial segment, of which $24,100 was not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Other intangible assets consist primarily of acquired trade names of approximately $4,300 , customer relationships of approximately $3,100 , and developed technology of approximately $1,700 . These intangible assets have been assigned useful lives ranging from 10 to 15 years based on the long operating history, broad market recognition and continued demand for the associated brands, and the limited turnover and longstanding relationships JPS has with its existing customer base. The valuations of acquired trade names and developed technology were performed utilizing a relief from royalty method, and significant assumptions used in the valuation included the royalty rate assumed and the expected level of future sales, as well as the rate of technical obsolescence for the developed technology. The acquired customer relationships were valued using an excess earnings approach, and significant assumptions used in the valuation included the customer attrition rate assumed and the expected level of future sales. The amount of net sales and operating loss of the acquired business included in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016 were approximately $101,600 and $32,100 , respectively. The operating loss reflects a goodwill impairment charge of $24,254 (see Note 7 - "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Net"). The amount of net sales and operating loss of the acquired business included in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 were approximately $59,500 and $2,200 , which included $3,400 of nonrecurring expense related to the fair value adjustment to acquisition-date inventories. The results of operations of the acquired business are reported within the Company's Diversified Industrial segment. CoSine Acquisition On January 20, 2015 ("CoSine Acquisition Date"), the Company entered into a contribution agreement (the "Contribution Agreement") with CoSine. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Company contributed (i) 24,807,203 ordinary shares of API and (ii) 445,456 shares of common stock of Nathan's Famous, Inc. ("Nathan's") to CoSine in exchange for 16,500,000 shares of newly issued CoSine common stock and 12,761 shares of newly issued 7.5% series B non-voting preferred stock, which increased SPLP's ownership of CoSine to approximately 80% . Prior to obtaining a controlling interest, SPLP owned approximately 48% of the outstanding shares of CoSine, and its investment was accounted for under the equity method. As a result of the above transaction, CoSine became a majority-owned controlled subsidiary and is consolidated with SPLP from the CoSine Acquisition Date. Prior to CoSine's Acquisition of API discussed below, CoSine was included in the Corporate and Other segment. Beginning in the second quarter of 2015, CoSine is included in the Diversified Industrial segment. The Contribution Agreement was the first step in a plan for a wholly owned United Kingdom ("UK") subsidiary of CoSine ("BidCo") to make an offer, which commenced on February 4, 2015, to acquire all of the issued and to be issued shares in API for 60 pence in cash per API share not already owned by BidCo. As a result of the offer, BidCo owned approximately 98% of API as of March 31, 2015, however CoSine did not obtain control over the operations of API until April 17, 2015 (see the "CoSine's Acquisition of API" section below). As of the CoSine Acquisition Date, the fair value of the Company's previously held equity interest and the noncontrolling interest in CoSine were valued at approximately $2.51 per share. Accordingly, the Company remeasured its previously held equity interest to a fair value of approximately $12,011 , resulting in an investment gain, which was recorded in the first quarter of 2015, of approximately $6,900 and is included in Other income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The consideration paid to acquire the controlling interest in CoSine was $66,239 , which was comprised of $12,011 related to the fair value of the previously held common equity of CoSine, $22,823 for the fair value of the API shares transferred to CoSine and $31,405 for the fair value of the Nathan's shares transferred to CoSine. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the CoSine Acquisition Date as well as the fair value of the noncontrolling interest in CoSine: Amount Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 17,614 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 7 Long-term investments 54,228 Goodwill 8,295 Total assets acquired 80,144 Liabilities: Accounts payable 280 Accrued liabilities 783 Total liabilities assumed 1,063 Fair value of noncontrolling interest 12,842 Net assets acquired $ 66,239 CoSine's Acquisition of API As discussed above, CoSine obtained control over the operations of API on April 17, 2015 ("API Acquisition Date"), at which time API became a majority-owned subsidiary of CoSine. API is a manufacturer and distributor of foils, films and laminates used to enhance the visual appeal of products and packaging. API is headquartered in Cheshire, England. The fair value of the consideration paid consisted of the fair value of the previously held common equity of API of $22,861 and the cash paid of $47,866 for the additional API equity acquired, for total consideration of $70,727 . The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the API Acquisition Date: Amount Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 5,424 Trade and other receivables 24,160 Inventories 22,900 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 4,838 Property, plant and equipment 42,238 Goodwill 14,456 Other intangible assets 22,749 Other non-current assets 4,816 Total assets acquired 141,581 Liabilities: Accounts payable 24,556 Accrued liabilities 7,028 Short-term debt 2,104 Long-term debt 22,784 Accrued pension liabilities 11,791 Deferred tax liabilities 2,591 Total liabilities assumed 70,854 Net assets acquired $ 70,727 All of the goodwill is assigned to SPLP's Diversified Industrial segment and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Other intangible assets consist primarily of acquired trade names of approximately $5,200 and customer relationships of $17,700 . Based on our preliminary evaluation, the trade names have been assigned a 10 year useful life based on the long operating history, broad market recognition and continued demand for the associated brands, and customer relationships have been assigned a 7 year life based on the expected turnover of API's existing customer base. The valuation of acquired trade names was performed utilizing a relief from royalty method, and significant assumptions used in the valuation include the royalty rate assumed and the expected level of future sales. The acquired customer relationships were valued using an excess earnings approach, and significant assumptions used in the valuation include the customer attrition rate assumed and the expected level of future sales. HNH Acquisition of ITW Polymers Sealants North America Inc. ("ITW") On March 31, 2015, HNH, through its indirect subsidiary, OMG, Inc. ("OMG"), acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of ITW, which are used in the business of manufacturing two-component polyurethane adhesive for the roofing industry for a cash purchase price of $27,400 , reflecting a final working capital adjustment of $400 . The assets acquired and liabilities assumed primarily included net working capital of inventories and accrued liabilities; property, plant and equipment; and intangible assets, primarily developed technology, valued at $1,700 , $100 and $4,400 , respectively. In connection with the ITW acquisition, HNH has recorded goodwill totaling approximately $21,268 , which is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. 2014 Acquisitions There were no significant acquisitions during the year ended December 31, 2014. Pro Forma Disclosures Unaudited pro forma revenue and net income from continuing operations attributable to common unitholders of the combined entities is presented below as if JPS and API had both been acquired January 1, 2014, and SLI and EME had both been acquired January 1, 2015. Year Ended December 31, 2016 2015 2014 Revenue $ 1,296,850 $ 1,357,820 $ 1,161,680 Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to common unitholders 1,211 70,308 (15,009 ) Net income (loss) from continuing operations per common unit - basic 0.12 2.96 (0.37 ) Net income (loss) from continuing operations per common unit - diluted 0.12 2.95 (0.37 ) This unaudited pro forma data is presented for informational purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the results of future operations or of the results that would have occurred had the JPS and API acquisitions taken place on January 1, 2014 and the SLI and EME acquisitions taken place on January 1, 2015. The information is based on historical financial information with respect to the acquisitions and does not include operational or other changes which might have been effected by the Company. The unaudited pro forma earnings for all periods were adjusted to reflect incremental depreciation and amortization expense based on the fair value adjustments for the acquired property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, which are principally amortized using the double-declining balance method for customer relationships and the straight line method for other intangibles, over periods principally ranging from 10 to 15 years, except for the customer order backlog, which is amortized over periods ranging from two to eight months . The unaudited proforma earnings were also adjusted to reflect incremental interest expense on the borrowings made to finance the acquisitions. The 2016 unaudited pro forma earnings exclude a total of $9,200 of acquisition-related costs incurred by HNH, SLI and EME during the year ended December 31, 2016. Of these costs that were excluded from 2016 pro forma expenses, an expense of $1,900 from the amortization of the fair value adjustment to acquisition-date inventories and an expense of $1,900 associated with the acceleration of SLI's previously outstanding stock-based compensation awards were reflected in 2015 and reduced the 2015 unaudited pro forma earnings. The 2015 unaudited pro forma earnings also reflect adjustments to exclude $8,572 of acquisition-related costs incurred by HNH, JPS, SLI and API in 2015 and $4,375 of nonrecurring expense related to JPS's and API's amortization of the fair value adjustment to acquisition-date inventories. The 2014 unaudited pro forma earnings were adjusted to include the fair value adjustment to acquisition-date inventories. |

The fair value of loans receivable, including loans held for sale, net was $153,488 and $226,541 at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Commercial and industrial loans include unamortized premiums of $2 and unaccreted discounts of $418 at December 31, 2016 and unamortized premiums of $18 and unaccreted discounts of $311 at December 31, 2015 . Loans with a carrying value of approximately $47,237 and $ 63,393 were pledged as collateral for potential borrowings at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. WebBank serviced $30,479 and $20,073 in loans for others at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses ("ALLL") represents an estimate of probable and estimable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. Losses are charged to the ALLL when incurred. Generally, commercial loans are charged off or charged down at the point at which they are determined to be uncollectible in whole or in part, or when 180 days past due unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. The amount of the ALLL is established by analyzing the portfolio at least quarterly and a provision for or reduction of loan losses is recorded so that the ALLL is at an appropriate level at the balance sheet date. The methodologies used to estimate the ALLL depend upon the impairment status and portfolio segment of the loan. Loan groupings are created for each loan class, and are then graded against historical and industry loss rates. After applying historic loss experience, the quantitatively derived level of ALLL is reviewed for each segment using qualitative criteria. Various risk factors are tracked that influence judgment regarding the level of the ALLL across the portfolio segments. Primary qualitative factors that may be reflected in the quantitative models include: • Asset quality trends • Risk management and loan administration practices • Risk identification practices • Effect of changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio • Existence and effect of any portfolio concentrations • National economic and business conditions • Regional and local economic and business conditions • Data availability and applicability Changes in these factors are reviewed to ensure that changes in the level of the ALLL are consistent with changes in these factors. The magnitude of the impact of each of these factors on the qualitative assessment of the ALLL changes from quarter to quarter according to the extent these factors are already reflected in historic loss rates and according to the extent these factors diverge from one another. Also considered is the uncertainty inherent in the estimation process when evaluating the ALLL. Changes in the ALLL are summarized as follows: Real Estate Commercial - Owner Occupied Commercial - Other Commercial & Industrial Consumer Loans Total December 31, 2013 $ 77 $ 28 $ 319 $ — $ 424 Charge-offs — — (3 ) — (3 ) Recoveries 66 40 80 — 186 Provision (79 ) (56 ) 85 — (50 ) December 31, 2014 64 12 481 — 557 Charge-offs — — — — — Recoveries 25 44 54 — 123 Provision (49 ) (48 ) 47 — (50 ) December 31, 2015 40 8 582 — 630 Charge-offs — — — — — Recoveries 14 35 30 — 79 Provision (32 ) (36 ) 268 574 774 December 31, 2016 $ 22 $ 7 $ 880 $ 574 $ 1,483 The ALLL and outstanding loan balances according to the Company's impairment method are summarized as follows: Real Estate December 31, 2016 Commercial - Owner Occupied Commercial - Other Commercial & Industrial Consumer Loans Total Allowance for loan losses: Individually evaluated for impairment $ 7 $ — $ 46 $ — $ 53 Collectively evaluated for impairment 15 7 834 574 1,430 Total $ 22 $ 7 $ 880 $ 574 $ 1,483 Outstanding loan balances: Individually evaluated for impairment $ 17 $ — $ 54 $ — $ 71 Collectively evaluated for impairment 587 266 50,510 22,805 74,168 Total $ 604 $ 266 $ 50,564 $ 22,805 $ 74,239 Real Estate December 31, 2015 Commercial - Owner Occupied Commercial - Other Commercial & Industrial Total Allowance for loan losses: Individually evaluated for impairment $ 1 $ — $ 77 $ 78 Collectively evaluated for impairment 39 8 505 552 Total $ 40 $ 8 $ 582 $ 630 Outstanding loan balances: Individually evaluated for impairment $ 358 $ — $ 1,241 $ 1,599 Collectively evaluated for impairment 1,184 281 65,012 66,477 Total $ 1,542 $ 281 $ 66,253 $ 68,076 Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest were $3 and $0 at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Nonaccrual loans totaled $0 and $343 for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2015, nonaccrual loans consisted of commercial-owner occupied real estate loans and commercial industrial loans $341 and $2 , respectively. Past due loans (accruing and nonaccruing) are summarized as follows: December 31, 2016 Current 30-89 Days 90+ Days Total Total Loans Recorded Nonaccrual (a) Real estate loans: Commercial - owner occupied $ 604 $ — $ — $ — $ 604 $ — $ — Commercial - other 266 — — — 266 — — Total real estate loans 870 — — — 870 — — Commercial and industrial $ 50,564 $ — $ — $ — $ 50,564 $ — $ — Consumer loans 22,745 57 3 60 22,805 3 Total loans $ 74,179 $ 57 $ 3 $ 60 $ 74,239 $ 3 $ — (a) Represents nonaccrual loans that are not past due more than 30 days; however, full payment of principal and interest is still not expected.

Credit Quality Indicators In addition to the past due and nonaccrual criteria, loans are analyzed using a loan grading system. Generally, internal grades are assigned to loans based on the performance of the loans, financial/statistical models and loan officer judgment. Reviews and grading of loans with unpaid principal balances of $100 or more is performed once per year. Grades follow definitions of Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful which are consistent with published definitions of regulatory risk classifications. The definitions of Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful are summarized as follows: • Pass : An asset in this category is a higher quality asset and does not fit any of the other categories described below. The likelihood of loss is considered remote. • Special Mention : An asset in this category has a specific weakness or problem but does not currently present a significant risk of loss or default as to any material term of the loan or financing agreement. • Substandard : An asset in this category has a developing or currently minor weakness or weaknesses that could result in loss or default if deficiencies are not corrected or adverse conditions arise. • Doubtful : An asset in this category has an existing weakness or weaknesses that have developed into a serious risk of significant loss or default with regard to a material term of the financing agreement. Outstanding loan balances (accruing and nonaccruing) categorized by these credit quality indicators are summarized as follows: December 31, 2016 Non - Graded Pass Special Sub- Doubtful Total Loans Real estate loans: Commercial - owner occupied $ — $ 587 $ — $ 17 $ — $ 604 Commercial - other — 266 — — — 266 Total real estate loans — 853 — 17 — 870 Commercial and industrial 45,931 4,579 54 — 50,564 Consumer loans 22,805 — — — — 22,805 Total loans $ 22,805 $ 46,784 $ 4,579 $ 71 $ — $ 74,239 December 31, 2015 Non - Graded Pass Special Sub- Doubtful Total Loans Real estate loans: Commercial - owner occupied $ — $ 1,184 $ — $ 358 $ — $ 1,542 Commercial - other — 281 — — — 281 Total real estate loans — 1,465 — 358 — 1,823 Commercial and industrial — 61,310 3,702 1,241 — 66,253 Total loans $ — $ 62,775 $ 3,702 $ 1,599 $ — $ 68,076 Impaired Loans Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that WebBank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. When loans are impaired, an estimate of the amount of the balance that is impaired is made and a specific reserve is assigned to the loan based on the estimated present value of the loan's future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan's underlying collateral less the cost to sell. When the impairment is based on the fair value of the loan's underlying collateral, the portion of the balance that is impaired is charged off, such that these loans do not have a specific reserve in the ALLL. Payments received on impaired loans that are accruing are recognized in interest income, according to the contractual loan agreement. WebBank recognized $78 , $86 , and $60 on impaired loans for the years ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 , and 2014 , respectively. Payments received on impaired loans that are on nonaccrual are not recognized in interest income, but are applied as a reduction to the principal outstanding. Payments are recognized when cash is received. Information on impaired loans is summarized as follows: Recorded Investment December 31, 2016 Unpaid Principle With No With Total Recorded Related Average Recorded Real estate loans: Commercial - owner occupied $ 17 $ — $ 17 $ 17 $ 7 $ 655 Total real estate loans 17 — 17 17 7 655 Commercial and industrial 54 8 46 54 46 3,274 Total loans $ 71 $ 8 $ 63 $ 71 $ 53 $ 3,929 Recorded investment December 31, 2015 Unpaid Principle With No With Total Recorded Related Average Recorded Real estate loans: Commercial - owner occupied $ 372 $ 341 $ 17 $ 358 $ 1 $ 370 Total real estate loans 372 341 17 358 1 370 Commercial and industrial 1,320 12 1,229 1,241 77 569 Total loans $ 1,692 $ 353 $ 1,246 $ 1,599 $ 78 $ 939 |

HNH records certain precious metal inven tory at the lower of LIFO cost or market, with any adjustments recorded through Cost of goods sold. Remaining precious metal inventory is accounted for primarily at fair value. Certain customers and suppliers of HNH choose to do business on a "pool" basis and furnish precious metal to HNH for return in fabricated form or for purchase from or return to the supplier. When the customer's precious metal is returned in fabricated form, the customer is charged a fabrication charge. The value of pooled precious metal is not included on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. To the extent HNH is able to utilize customer precious metal in its production process, such customer metal replaces the need for HNH to purchase its own inventory. As of December 31, 2016 , customer metal in HNH's custody consisted of 126,427 ounces of silver, 520 ounces of gold, and 1,391 ounces of palladium.

INVESTMENTS | INVESTMENTS Short-Term Investments Marketable Securities The Company's short-term investments primarily consist of its marketable securities portfolio held by its subsidiary, Steel Excel. These marketable securities as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 were classified as available-for-sale securities. The classification of marketable securities as a current asset is based on the intended holding period and realizability of the investment. The Company's portfolio of marketable securities at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was as follows: December 31, 2016 December 31, 2015 Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Fair value Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Fair value Available-for-sale securities Short-term deposits $ 73,270 $ — $ — $ 73,270 $ 30,118 $ — $ — $ 30,118 Mutual funds 11,997 2,279 — 14,276 11,835 2,182 — 14,017 Corporate securities 17,516 4,586 (586 ) 21,516 41,861 250 (549 ) 41,562 Corporate obligations 17,232 734 (108 ) 17,858 25,747 98 (582 ) 25,263 Total marketable securities 120,015 7,599 (694 ) 126,920 109,561 2,530 (1,131 ) 110,960 Amounts classified as cash equivalents (73,270 ) — — (73,270 ) (30,118 ) — — (30,118 ) Amounts classified as marketable securities $ 46,745 $ 7,599 $ (694 ) $ 53,650 $ 79,443 $ 2,530 $ (1,131 ) $ 80,842 Proceeds from sales of marketable securities were $60,600 , $43,300 and $116,300 in 2016 , 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The Company determines gains and losses from sales of marketable securities based on specific identification of the securities sold. Gross realized gains and losses from sales of marketable securities, all of which are reported as a component of Other income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2016 2015 2014 Gross realized gains $ 4,771 $ 12,053 $ 8,065 Gross realized losses (1,483 ) (6,806 ) (4,300 ) Realized gains, net $ 3,288 $ 5,247 $ 3,765 The fair value of the Company's marketable securities with unrealized losses at December 31, 2016 , and the duration of time that such losses had been unrealized, were as follows: Less than 12 Months 12 Months or Greater Total Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Corporate securities $ 2,316 $ (384 ) $ 662 $ (202 ) $ 2,978 $ (586 ) Corporate obligations 12,481 (108 ) — — 12,481 (108 ) Total $ 14,797 $ (492 ) $ 662 $ (202 ) $ 15,459 $ (694 ) The fair value of the Company's marketable securities with unrealized losses at December 31, 2015 , all of which had unrealized losses for periods of twelve months or less, were as follows: Fair Value Gross Unrealized Losses Corporate securities $ 2,283 $ (549 ) Corporate obligations 13,199 (582 ) Total $ 15,482 $ (1,131 ) The gross unrealized losses primarily related to losses on corporate securities and corporate obligations, which primarily consist of investments in equity and debt securities of publicly-traded entities. Based on Steel Excel's evaluation of such securities, it determined that certain unrealized losses represented other-than-temporary impairments. This determination was based on several factors, including adverse changes in the market conditions and economic environments in which the entities operate. Steel Excel recognized asset impairment charges of approximately $4,200 and $59,800 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Such impairment charges, which included $1,000 for unpaid interest on a debt security for the year ended December 31, 2016, were equal to the cost basis of such securities in excess of their fair values. The Company determined that there was no indication of other-than-temporary impairments on its other investments with unrealized losses as of December 31, 2016 . This determination was based on several factors, including the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the cost basis, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the entity, and the intent and ability to hold the corporate securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of available-for-sale debt securities, by contractual maturity, and marketable securities with no contractual maturities as of December 31, 2016 , were as follows: Cost Estimated Fair Value Debt securities maturing after one year through three years $ 17,232 $ 17,858 Securities with no contractual maturities 102,783 109,062 Total $ 120,015 $ 126,920 Long-Term Investments The following table summarizes the Company's long-term investments as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 .

Proceeds from sales of available for sale securities classified in long-term investments were $0 , $33,582 and $2,394 for the years ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 . Gross realized gains and losses from sales of marketable securities, all of which are reported as a component of Other income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2015 2014 Gross realized gains $ 27,275 $ 98 Gross realized losses (56 ) (16 ) Realized gains, net $ 27,219 $ 82 Also, in 2015 Cosine received a special dividend of approximately $5,500 which is included in Other income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015. As a result, management determined there to be an other-than-temporary impairment in the stock price and recorded an impairment charge of approximately $5,500 . Equity Method Investments The Company's investments in associated companies are accounted for under the equity method of accounting (see Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" for additional information). Associated companies are included in either the Diversified Industrial, Energy or Corporate and Other segments. Certain associated companies have a fiscal year end that differs from December 31. Additional information for each of SPLP's investments in associated companies that have impacted the Company's consolidated statements of operations during 2016 , 2015 or 2014 is as follows: Equity Method, Carried At Fair Value: • MLNK provides supply chain and logistics services to companies in the consumer electronics, communications, computing, software, storage and retail industries.

Amounts outstanding under the PNC Credit Facility bear interest at SPLP's option at either LIBOR or the Base Rate , as defined, plus an applicable margin under the loan agreement ( 1.63% and 0.63% , respectively, for LIBOR and Base Rate borrowings as of December 31, 2016 ) and requires a commitment fee to be paid on unused borrowings. The borrowings are collateralized by first priority security interests in certain of the Company's deposit accounts and investments, including investments in majority-owned, consolidated subsidiaries. The pledged collateral as of December 31, 2016 totaled approximately $390,000 . The average interest rate on the PNC Credit Facility was 2.60% as of December 31, 2016 . The PNC Credit Facility also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a minimum cash balance covenant and customary events of default. Any amounts outstanding under the PNC Credit Facility are due and payable in full on October 23, 2017, and accordingly, the total amount outstanding is classified in Current portion of long-term debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 . The PNC Credit Facility also includes provisions for the issuance of letters of credit of up to $10,000 , with any such issuances reducing total borrowing availability. The Company has an outstanding letter of credit of approximately $892 at December 31, 2016 . The Company's availability under the PNC Credit Facility was approximately $34,000 as of December 31, 2016 . In April 2014, the Company borrowed $47,500 under the PNC Credit Facility in connection with a tender offer for its common units (see Note 14 - "Capital and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss") and in the first quarter of 2015, the Company borrowed an additional $37,000 to fund CoSine's tender offer for API (see Note 3 - "Acquisitions" for additional information). HNH Debt Senior Credit Facility On August 29, 2014, HNH entered into an amended and restated senior credit facility ("Senior Credit Facility") which provided for an up to $365,000 senior secured revolving credit facility, including a $20,000 sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $20,000 sublimit for the issuance of swing loans. On January 22, 2015, HNH entered into an amendment to its Senior Credit Facility to, among other things, provide for the consent of the administrative agent and the lenders, subject to compliance with certain conditions, for the tender offer by HNH for the shares of JPS, including the use of up to $71,000 under the Senior Credit Facility to purchase such shares, and certain transactions related thereto. In addition, two of HNH's acquisition subsidiaries in the JPS transaction became guarantors under the Senior Credit Facility pursuant to the amendment. See further discussion regarding the JPS transaction in Note 3 - "Acquisitions." On March 23, 2016, HNH entered into an amendment to its Senior Credit Facility to increase the size of the credit facility by $35,000 to an aggregate amount of $400,000 . On December 21, 2016, HNH entered into an additional amendment to its Senior Credit Facility to, among other things, allow Lucas Milhaupt, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of HNH, to enter into a precious metal consignment arrangement with Bank of Nova Scotia, as consignor, and permit the loan parties under the Senior Credit Facility to enter into certain additional factoring arrangements on the same conditions upon which such arrangements are already permitted under the Senior Credit Facility. On February 24, 2017, HNH entered into an amendment to its Senior Credit Facility, which permits its primary operating subsidiaries to fund the minimum annual pension requirements of the WHX Pension Plan II. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest at HNH's option, at either LIBOR or the Base Rate , as defined, plus an applicable margin as set forth in a the loan agreement ( 2.50% and 1.50% , respectively, for LIBOR and Base Rate borrowings at December 31, 2016 ), and the revolving facility provides for a commitment fee to be paid on unused borrowings. The weighted average interest rate on the revolving facility was 3.24% at December 31, 2016 . At December 31, 2016 , letters of credit totaling $6,700 had been issued under the Senior Credit Facility, including $3,200 of the letters of credit guaranteeing various insurance activities, and $3,500 for environmental and other matters. HNH's availability under the Senior Credit Facility was $70,100 as of December 31, 2016 . The Senior Credit Facility will expire, with remaining outstanding balances due and payable, on August 29, 2019. The Senior Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all existing and thereafter acquired or created domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries and certain foreign wholly-owned subsidiaries of HNH, and obligations under the Senior Credit Facility are collateralized by first priority security interests in and liens upon all present and future assets of these subsidiaries, which approximated $681,938 at December 31, 2016 . The Senior Credit Facility restricts these subsidiaries' ability to transfer cash or other assets, subject to certain exceptions, including required pension payments to the WHX Corporation Pension Plan ("WHX Pension Plan") and the WHX Pension Plan II to HNH, the parent company. The Senior Credit Facility is subject to certain mandatory prepayment provisions and restrictive and financial covenants, which include a maximum ratio limit on Total Leverage and a minimum ratio limit on Fixed Charge Coverage, as defined, as well as a minimum liquidity level. HNH was in compliance with all debt covenants at December 31, 2016 . The increase in the amount outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility during the year ended December 31, 2016 was principally attributable to the SLI and EME acquisitions discussed in Note 3 - "Acquisitions." HNH's prior senior credit facility, as amended, consisted of a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $110,000 and a senior term loan. On August 5, 2014, this agreement was further amended to, among other things, permit a new $40,000 term loan and permit certain HNH subsidiaries to make a distribution of up to $80,000 to HNH, the parent company. The revolving facility provided for a commitment fee to be paid on unused borrowings. Borrowings under the prior senior credit facility bore interest, at HNH's option, at a rate based on LIBOR or the Base Rate , as defined, plus an applicable margin as set forth in the loan agreement. On August 29, 2014, all amounts outstanding under this agreement were repaid. Interest Rate Swap Agreements HNH entered into an interest rate swap agreement in February 2013 to reduce its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. Under the interest rate swap, HNH received one-month LIBOR in exchange for a fixed interest rate of 0.569% over the life of the agreement on an initial $56,400 notional amount of debt, with the notional amount decreasing by $1,100 , $1,800 and $2,200 per quarter in 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively. HNH entered into a second interest rate swap agreement in June 2013 also to reduce its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. Under the interest rate swap, HNH received one-month LIBOR in exchange for a fixed interest rate of 0.598% over the life of the agreement on an initial $5,000 notional amount of debt, with the notional amount decreasing by $100 , $200 and $200 per quarter in 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively. Both agreements expired in February 2016. Master Lease Agreement During the year ended December 31, 2016 , HNH entered into a master lease agreement with TD Equipment Finance, Inc. ("TD Equipment"), which establishes the general terms and conditions for a $10,000 credit facility under which HNH may lease equipment and other property from TD Equipment pursuant to the terms of individual lease schedules. As of December 31, 2016 , no leases had been entered into under the master lease agreement. WHX CS Loan On June 3, 2014, WHX CS Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of HNH, entered into a credit agreement ("WHX CS Loan"), which provided for a term loan facility with borrowing availability of up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $15,000 . The amounts outstanding under the WHX CS Loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% . On August 29, 2014, the WHX CS Loan was terminated and all outstanding amounts thereunder were repaid. Other Debt A subsidiary of HNH has two mortgage agreements, each collateralized by real property. On October 5, 2015, this subsidiary refinanced one of the outstanding mortgage notes, which had an original maturity in October 2015. Under the terms of the revised agreement, the subsidiary paid down $700 of the original outstanding principal balance. The remaining outstanding principal balance of $5,400 was refinanced and will be repaid in equal monthly installments totaling $400 per year over the next 5 years, with a final principal payment of $3,600 due at maturity of the loan in October 2020. The mortgage bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 2.00% , or 2.65% at December 31, 2016. The mortgage on the second facility was approximately $1,500 and $1,600 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. This mortgage bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 2.70% , or 3.46% at December 31, 2016, and matures in 2017.

Steel Excel only has an amount outstanding under the Term Loan at December 31, 2016. In December 2016 and 2015, Steel Excel made prepayments of $6,600 and $23,100 , respectively, on the Term Loan, with the 2016 prepayment applied to the next two quarterly installments. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, Steel Excel recognized losses on extinguishment of $21 and $100 , respectively, in connection with the prepayment from the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs, which was reported as a component of Other income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Derivative and Other Financial Instrument [Abstract] | |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS At December 31, 2016 and 2015 financial instrument liabilities and related restricted cash consisted of $12,640 and $21,639 , respectively, of short sales of corporate securities. Activity is summarized below for financial instrument liabilities and related restricted cash: Year Ended December 31, 2016 2015 Balance, beginning of period $ 21,639 $ 21,311 Settlement of short sales of corporate securities (9,229 ) (639 ) Short sales of corporate securities 170 490 Net investment losses 60 477 Balance of financial instrument liabilities and related restricted cash, end of period $ 12,640 $ 21,639 Short Sales of Corporate Securities From time to time, Steel Excel enters into short sale transactions on certain corporate securities in which Steel Excel receives proceeds from the sale of such securities and incurs obligations to deliver such securities at a later date. Upon initially entering into such short sale transactions, Steel Excel recognizes a liability equal to the fair value of the obligation, with a comparable amount of cash and cash equivalents reclassified as restricted cash. Subsequent changes in the fair value of such obligations, determined based on the closing market price of the securities, are recognized currently as gains or losses, with a comparable adjustment made between unrestricted and restricted cash. Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Financial instrument activity in 2014 includes activity for amounts that were payable in foreign currencies which were subject to the risk of exchange rate changes. The liabilities were accounted for at fair value on the balance sheet date with changes in fair value reported in the Company's consolidated statements of operations included in Other income, net. These liabilities were not designated as hedging instruments and were settled in the fourth quarter of 2014. API enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its receivables and payables denominated in other currencies. In addition, API enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the value of its future sales denominated in Euros and the value of its future purchases denominated in USD. These hedges have settlement dates ranging through December 2017. The forward contracts that are used to hedge the risk of foreign exchange movement on its receivables and payables are accounted for as fair value hedges. At December 31, 2016 there was a contract in place to buy Sterling and sell Euros in the amount of €9,000 . The forward contracts that are used to hedge the value of API's future sales and purchases are accounted for as cash flow hedges. At December 31, 2016 , there were contracts in place to hedge the value of future sales denominated in Euros in the amount of €13,575 and the value of future purchases denominated in USD in the amount of $1,500 . For additional information on the Company's accounting policy related to foreign forward currency contracts, see Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." WebBank - Derivative Financial Instruments WebBank's derivative financial instruments represent on-going economic interests in loans made after they are sold. These derivatives are carried at fair value on a gross basis in Other non-current assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 and are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 17 - "Fair Value Measurements"). At December 31, 2016 , derivatives outstanding mature within 3 to 5 years. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of derivative instruments are accounted for in the Company's consolidated statements of operations in Financial services revenue. Fair value represents the estimated amounts that WebBank would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date based on a discounted cash flow model for the same or similar instruments. WebBank does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative or trading purposes. Precious Metal and Commodity Inventories As of December 31, 2016 , HNH had the following outstanding forward contracts with settlement dates ranging through January 2017 . There were no futures contracts outstanding at December 31, 2016 . Commodity Amount Notional Value Silver 607,684 ounces $ 9,700 Gold 400 ounces $ 500 Copper 275,000 pounds $ 600 Tin 40 metric tons $ 800 Of the total forward contracts outstanding, 452,684 ounces of silver and substantially all the copper contracts are designated and accounted for as fair value hedges and are associated primarily with HNH's precious metal inventory carried at fair value. The remaining outstanding forward contracts for silver, and all the contracts for gold and tin, are accounted for as economic hedges. For additional information on the Company's accounting policy related to these fair value hedges, see Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." The forward contracts were made with a counterparty rated A+ by Standard & Poors. Accordingly, HNH has determined that there is minimal credit risk of default. HNH estimates the fair value of its derivative contracts through the use of market quotes or with the assistance of brokers when market information is not available. HNH maintains collateral on account with the third-party broker. Such collateral consists of both cash that varies in amount depending on the value of open contracts, as well as ounces of precious metal held on account by the broker. Debt Agreements As discussed in Note 11 - "Long-Term Debt," HNH entered into two interest rate swap agreements to reduce its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. For additional information on the Company's accounting policy related to these interest rate swaps, see Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." The fair value and carrying amount of derivative instruments on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and the effect of derivative instruments in the Company's consolidated statements of operations is shown in the tables below: December 31, Derivative Balance Sheet Location 2016 2015 Commodity contracts (a), (b) Accrued Liabilities/Prepaid and other current assets $ (111 ) $ 197 Commodity contracts (c) Prepaid and other current assets 3 18 Interest rate swap agreements (c) Other non-current liabilities — (30 ) Foreign exchange forward contracts (a), (d) (Accrued liabilities)/Prepaid expenses and other current assets (872 ) 325 Foreign exchange forward contracts (a), b) Accrued liabilities (76 ) (30 ) Economic interest in loans (c) Other non-current assets 6,162 — Total derivatives $ 5,106 $ 480 Year Ended December 31, 2016 2015 2014 Derivative Statements of Operations Location Gain (Loss) Gain (Loss) Gain (Loss) Commodity contracts (a), (b) Cost of goods sold $ (1,520 ) $ 1,467 $ 2,655 Commodity contracts (c) Cost of goods sold (257 ) 246 131 Commodity contracts (c) Realized and unrealized gain on derivatives 148 588 1,307 Interest rate swap agreements (c) Interest expense — (77 ) (156 ) Foreign exchange forward contracts (a), (d) Revenue/Cost of goods sold (1,404 ) 2,063 — Foreign exchange forward contracts (a), b) Other income, net (700 ) 21 — Economic interest in loans (c) Revenue 7,148 — — Total derivatives $ 3,415 $ 4,308 $ 3,937 (a) Designated as hedging instruments.

In the normal course of business, these financial instruments include commitments to extend credit in the form of loans as part of WebBank's lending arrangements. Those instruments involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized on the consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement WebBank has in particular classes of financial instruments. At December 31, 2016 and 2015 , WebBank's undisbursed loan commitments totaled $184,784 and $80,667 , respectively. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a borrower who meets the lending criteria through one of WebBank's lending agreements, provided there is no violation of any condition established in the contract with the counterparty to the lending arrangement. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since certain of the commitments are expected to expire without the credit being extended, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. WebBank evaluates each prospective borrower's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by WebBank upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower and WebBank's counterparty. WebBank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. WebBank uses the same credit policy in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. WebBank estimates an allowance for potential losses on off-balance sheet contingent credit exposures related to the guaranteed amount of its Small Business Administration ("SBA") and United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA") loans and whether or not the SBA/USDA honors the guarantee. WebBank determines the allowance for these contingent credit exposures based on historical experience and portfolio analysis. The allowance is included in Other non-current liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, with any related increases or decreases in the reserve included in SG&A in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The allowance was $188 at both December 31, 2016 and 2015 . |

PENSION AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS | PENSION AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS HNH maintains several qualified and non-qualified pension plans and other post-retirement benefit plans. API maintains a pension plan in the United Kingdom ("API Plan") and a pension plan in the U.S. which is not significant. HNH's and API's significant pension, health care benefit and defined contribution plans are discussed below. The Company's other pension and post-retirement benefit plans are not significant individually or in the aggregate. Qualified Pension Plans - HNH HNH sponsors a defined benefit pension plan, the WHX Pension Plan, covering many of H&H's employees and certain employees of H&H's former subsidiary, Wheeling-Pittsburgh Corporation ("WPC"). The WHX Pension Plan was established in May 1998 as a result of the merger of the former H&H plans, which covered substantially all H&H employees, and the WPC plan. The WPC plan, covering most United Steel Workers of America-represented employees of WPC, was created pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement ratified on August 12, 1997. Prior to that date, benefits were provided through a defined contribution plan, the Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel Corporation Retirement Security Plan ("RSP Plan"). The assets of the RSP Plan were merged into the WPC plan as of December 1, 1997. Under the terms of the WHX Pension Plan, the benefit formula and provisions for the WPC and H&H participants continued as they were designed under each of the respective plans prior to the merger. The qualified pension benefits under the WHX Pension Plan were frozen as of December 31, 2005 and April 30, 2006 for hourly and salaried non-bargaining participants, respectively, with the exception of a single operating unit. In 2011, the benefits were frozen for the remainder of the participants. WPC employees ceased to be active participants in the WHX Pension Plan effective July 31, 2003, and as a result, such employees no longer accrue benefits under the WHX Pension Plan. JPS sponsors a defined benefit pension plan ("JPS Pension Plan"), which was assumed in connection with HNH's JPS acquisition. Under the JPS Pension Plan, substantially all JPS employees who were employed prior to April 1, 2005 have benefits. The JPS Pension Plan was frozen effective December 31, 2005. Employees no longer earned additional benefits after that date. Benefits earned prior to December 31, 2005 will be paid out to eligible participants following retirement. The JPS Pension Plan was "unfrozen" for employees who were active employees on or after June 1, 2012. This new benefit, calculated based on years of service and a capped average salary, will be added to the amount of any pre-2005 benefit. The JPS Pension Plan was again frozen for all future accruals effective December 31, 2015, although unvested participants may still vest in accrued but unvested benefits. Bairnco, LLC ("Bairnco"), a subsidiary of HNH, had several pension plans, which covered substantially all its employees. In 2006, Bairnco froze the Bairnco Corporation Retirement Plan and initiated employer contributions to its 401(k) plan. On June 2, 2008, 2 Bairnco plans (Salaried and Kasco) were merged into the WHX Pension Plan. Some of the Company's foreign subsidiaries provide retirement benefits for their employees through defined contribution plans or otherwise provide retirement benefits for employees consistent with local practices. The foreign plans are not significant in the aggregate and, therefore, are not included in the following disclosures. Pension benefits under the WHX Pension Plan are based on years of service and the amount of compensation earned during the participants' employment. However, as noted above, the qualified pension benefits have been frozen for all participants. Pension benefits for the WPC bargained participants include both defined benefit and defined contribution features, since the plan includes the account balances from the RSP Plan. The gross benefit, before offsets, is calculated based on years of service and the benefit multiplier under the plan. The net defined benefit pension plan benefit is the gross amount offset for the benefits payable from the RSP Plan and benefits payable by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation from previously terminated plans. Individual employee accounts established under the RSP Plan are maintained until retirement. Upon retirement, participants who are eligible for the WHX Pension Plan and maintain RSP Plan account balances will normally receive benefits from the WHX Pension Plan. When these participants become eligible for benefits under the WHX Pension Plan, their vested balances in the RSP Plan become assets of the WHX Pension Plan. Although these RSP Plan assets cannot be used to fund any of the net benefit that is the basis for determining the defined benefit plan's net benefit obligation at the end of the year, HNH has included the amount of the RSP Plan accounts of $13,100 and $13,300 on a gross-basis as both assets and liabilities of the plan as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. On December 30, 2016, the WHX Pension Plan was split into two plans by spinning off certain plan participants with smaller benefit obligations (which in the aggregate were equal to approximately 3.0% of the assets of the WHX Pension Plan), and assets equal thereto, to a new separate plan, the WHX Pension Plan II. The benefits of participants under the WHX Pension Plan II are equal to their accrued benefits under the benefit formula that was applicable to each participant under the WHX Pension Plan at the time of the plan spin-off. The total benefit liabilities of the two plans after the spin-off were equal to the benefit liabilities of the WHX Pension Plan immediately before the spin-off, and under the applicable spin-off rules, the WHX Pension Plan II is considered fully funded. Certain current and retired employees of H&H are covered by post-retirement medical benefit plans, which provide benefits for medical expenses and prescription drugs. Contributions from a majority of the participants are required, and for those retirees and spouses, HNH's payments are capped. Actuarial losses for the WHX Pension Plan are being amortized over the average future lifetime of the participants, which is expected to be approximately 20 years . HNH believes that use of the future lifetime of the participants is appropriate because the WHX Pension Plan is completely inactive. API Plan The API Plan is a defined benefit pension plan providing benefits based on final pensionable earnings, funded by the payment of contributions to a separately administered trust fund. Benefits under the API Plan were frozen and the plan was closed to new participants in December 2008. The following table presents the components of pension expense and other post-retirement benefit (income) expense for the HNH and API benefit plans: Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Benefits 2016 2015 2014 2016 2015 2014 Service cost $ — $ 54 $ — $ — $ — $ — Interest cost 23,438 24,870 20,518 35 46 49 Expected return on plan assets (29,356 ) (29,253 ) (24,157 ) — — — Amortization of prior service cost — — — (103 ) (103 ) (103 ) Amortization of actuarial loss 8,320 6,229 1,878 47 37 34 Settlement/Curtailment 14 — — — — — Total $ 2,416 $ 1,900 $ (1,761 ) $ (21 ) $ (20 ) $ (20 ) Actuarial assumptions used to develop the components of pension expense and other post-retirement benefit (income) expense were as follows: Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Benefits 2016 2015 2014 2016 2015 2014 Discount rates: WHX Pension Plan 4.01 % 3.70 % 4.40 % N/A N/A N/A JPS Pension Plan 3.93 % 4.00 % N/A N/A N/A N/A API Pension Plan 3.80 % 3.70 % N/A N/A N/A N/A Other post-retirement benefit plans N/A N/A N/A 3.89 % 3.55 % 4.10 % HNH expected return on assets 7.00 % 7.00 % 7.00 % N/A N/A N/A API expected return on assets 4.84 % 4.61 % N/A N/A N/A N/A Rate of compensation increase N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Health care cost trend rate - initial N/A N/A N/A 6.50 % 6.75 % 7.00 % Health care cost trend rate - ultimate N/A N/A N/A 5.00 % 5.00 % 5.00 % Year ultimate reached N/A N/A N/A 2022 2022 2022 HNH's pension expense in 2016 was favorably impacted by a change in the manner by which the interest cost component of net periodic pension expense was determined; specifically, by utilizing the "spot rate approach," which provides a more precise measurement of interest cost. The impact of this change was to reduce annual pension expense in 2016 by approximately $4,800 . The measurement date for plan obligations is December 31. The discount rate is the rate at which the plans' obligations could be effectively settled and is based on high quality bond yields as of the measurement date. Summarized below is a reconciliation of the funded status for HNH's and API's qualified defined benefit pension plans and other post-retirement benefit plan: HNH Plans API Plan Pension Benefits Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Benefits 2016 2015 2016 2015 2016 2015 Change in benefit obligation: Benefit obligation at January 1 $ 613,394 $ 531,824 $ 139,039 $ — $ 1,213 $ 1,356 JPS and API pension plan acquisitions — 117,688 — 142,164 — — Service cost — 54 — — — — Interest cost 18,507 21,286 4,763 3,444 35 46 Actuarial loss (gain) 7,970 (19,814 ) 26,058 (3,175 ) (3 ) 159 Participant contributions — — — — 2 1 Benefits paid (42,466 ) (37,644 ) (6,812 ) (3,394 ) (95 ) (349 ) Impact of foreign exchange rate — — (26,484 ) — — — Benefit obligation at December 31 $ 597,405 $ 613,394 $ 136,564 $ 139,039 $ 1,152 $ 1,213 Change in plan assets: Fair value of plan assets at January 1 $ 347,921 $ 323,493 $ 129,235 $ — $ — $ — JPS and API pension plan acquisitions — 87,321 — 131,973 — — Actual returns on plan assets 9,903 (43,273 ) 18,540 (34 ) — — Participant contributions — — — — 2 1 Benefits paid (42,466 ) (37,644 ) (6,797 ) (3,394 ) (95 ) (349 ) Company contributions 16,514 18,024 959 690 93 348 Impact of foreign exchange rate — — (23,610 ) — — — Fair value of plan assets at December 31 331,872 347,921 118,327 129,235 — — Funded status $ (265,533 ) $ (265,473 ) $ (18,237 ) $ (9,804 ) $ (1,152 ) $ (1,213 ) Accumulated benefit obligation ("ABO") for qualified defined benefit pension plans: ABO at January 1 $ 613,394 $ 531,824 $ 139,039 $ — $ 1,213 $ 1,356 ABO at December 31 $ 597,405 $ 613,394 $ 136,564 $ 139,039 $ 1,152 $ 1,213 Amounts recognized on the consolidated balance sheets: Current liability $ — $ — $ — $ — $ (107 ) $ (119 ) Non-current liability (265,533 ) (265,473 ) (18,237 ) (9,804 ) (1,045 ) (1,094 ) Total $ (265,533 ) $ (265,473 ) $ (18,237 ) $ (9,804 ) $ (1,152 ) $ (1,213 ) The weighted average assumptions used in the valuations at December 31 were as follows: Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Benefits 2016 2015 2016 2015 Discount rates: WHX Pension Plan 3.84 % 4.01 % N/A N/A WHX Pension Plan II 3.64 % N/A N/A N/A JPS Pension Plan 3.81 % 3.93 % N/A N/A API Pension Plan 2.65 % 3.80 % N/A N/A Other post-retirement benefit plans N/A N/A 3.74 % 3.89 % Health care cost trend rate - initial N/A N/A 6.25 % 6.50 % Health care cost trend rate - ultimate N/A N/A 5.00 % 5.00 % Year ultimate reached N/A N/A 2022 2022 The effect of a 1% increase (decrease) in health care cost trend rates on benefit expense and on other post-retirement benefit obligations is not significant. Pretax amounts included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows: HNH Plans API Plan Pension Benefits Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Benefits 2016 2015 2016 2015 2016 2015 Prior service credit $ — $ — $ — $ — $ (1,196 ) $ (1,299 ) Net actuarial loss 239,493 226,296 12,514 903 770 820 Accumulated other comprehensive loss (income) $ 239,493 $ 226,296 $ 12,514 $ 903 $ (426 ) $ (479 ) The pretax amount of actuarial losses and prior service credit included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2016 that is expected to be recognized in net periodic benefit cost in 2017 is $9,150 . Other changes in plan assets and benefit obligations recognized in comprehensive (loss) income are as follows: HNH Plans API Plan Pension Benefits Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Benefits 2016 2015 2014 2016 2015 2016 2015 2014 Current year actuarial (loss) gain $ (21,517 ) $ (48,505 ) $ (90,106 ) $ (13,156 ) $ (903 ) $ 3 $ (159 ) $ (293 ) Amortization of actuarial loss 8,320 6,229 1,878 — — 47 37 34 Amortization of prior service credit — — — — — (103 ) (103 ) (103 ) Total recognized in comprehensive (loss) $ (13,197 ) $ (42,276 ) $ (88,228 ) $ (13,156 ) $ (903 ) $ (53 ) $ (225 ) $ (362 ) The actuarial losses in 2016 occurred principally because the investment returns on the assets of the WHX Pension Plan, JPS Pension Plan and API Plan were lower than actuarial assumptions. Benefit obligations were in excess of plan assets for each of the pension plans and the other post-retirement benefit plan at both December 31, 2016 and 2015 . Additional information for the plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets: HNH Plans API Plan Pension Benefits Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Benefits 2016 2015 2016 2015 2016 2015 Projected benefit obligation $ 597,405 $ 613,394 $ 136,564 $ 139,039 $ 1,152 $ 1,213 Accumulated benefit obligation $ 597,405 $ 613,394 $ 136,564 $ 139,039 $ 1,152 $ 1,213 Fair value of plan assets $ 331,872 $ 347,921 $ 118,327 $ 129,235 $ — $ — In determining the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, HNH evaluated input from various investment professionals. In addition, HNH considered its historical compound returns, as well as HNH's forward-looking expectations. HNH determines its actuarial assumptions for its pension and other post-retirement benefit plans on December 31 of each year to calculate liability information as of that date and pension and other post-retirement benefit expense or income for the following year. The discount rate assumption is derived from the rate of return on high-quality bonds as of December 31 of each year. HNH's investment policy is to maximize the total rate of return with a view to long-term funding objectives of the pension plans to ensure that funds are available to meet benefit obligations when due. Pension plan assets are diversified to the extent necessary to minimize risk and to achieve an optimal balance between risk and return. There are no target allocations. The WHX Pension Plan's assets are diversified as to type of assets, investment strategies employed and number of investment managers used. Investments may include equities, fixed income, cash equivalents, convertible securities, and private investment funds. Derivatives may be used as part of the investment strategy. HNH may direct the transfer of assets between investment managers in order to rebalance the portfolio in accordance with asset allocation guidelines established by HNH. The fair value of pension investments is defined by reference to one of three categories (Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3) based on the reliability of inputs, as such terms are defined in Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." HNH's pension plans assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , by asset category, are as follows: Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2016: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2016 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Equity securities: U.S. mid-cap blend $ 22,560 $ — $ — $ 22,560 U.S. large-cap 34,256 — — 34,256 Convertible promissory notes — — 3,500 3,500 Stock warrants — — 875 875 Subtotal $ 56,816 $ — $ 4,375 61,191 Pension assets measured at net asset value (1) Hedge funds: (2) Equity long/short 6,832 Event driven 47,771 Value driven 17,648 Funds of funds - long-term capital growth (3) 8,325 Common trust funds: (2) Other 78 Insurance separate account (4) 14,391 Total pension assets measured at net asset value 95,045 Cash and cash equivalents 175,435 Net receivables 201 Total pension assets $ 331,872 Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2015: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2015 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Fixed income security: Credit contract $ — $ 3,100 $ — $ 3,100 Subtotal $ — $ 3,100 $ — 3,100 Pension assets measured at net asset value (1) Hedge funds: (2) Equity long/short 2,706 Event driven 45,660 Funds of funds - international large cap growth (5) 4,531 Common trust funds: (2) Large-cap equity 35,081 Mid-cap equity 9,040 Small-cap equity 5,158 International equity 4,664 Intermediate bond fund 6,492 Other 662 Insurance separate account (4) 15,013 Total pension assets measured at net asset value 129,007 Cash and cash equivalents 166,503 Net receivables 49,311 Total pension assets $ 347,921 (1) Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. (2) Hedge funds and common trust funds are comprised of shares or units in commingled funds that may not be publicly traded. The underlying assets in these funds are primarily publicly traded equity securities and fixed income securities. (3) The limited partnership operates as a fund of funds. The underlying assets in this fund are generally expected to be illiquid. The limited partnership's investment strategy is to seek above-average rates of return and long-term capital growth by investing in a broad range of investments, including, but not limited to, global distressed corporate securities, activist equities, value equities, post-reorganizational equities, municipal bonds, high yield bonds, leveraged loans, unsecured debt, collateralized debt obligations, mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, direct lending and sovereign debt. (4) The JPS Pension Plan holds a deposit administration group annuity contract with an immediate participation guarantee from Transamerica Life Insurance Company ("TFLIC"). The TFLIC contract unconditionally guarantees benefits to certain salaried JPS Pension Plan participants earned through June 30, 1984 in the plan of a predecessor employer. The assets deposited under the contract are held in a separate custodial account ("TFLIC Assets"). If the TFLIC Assets decrease to the level of the trigger point (as defined in the contract), which represents the guaranteed benefit obligation representing the accumulated plan benefits as of June 30, 1984, TFLIC has the right to cause annuities to be purchased for the individuals covered by these contract agreements. Since the TFLIC Assets have remained in excess of the trigger point, no annuities have been purchased for the individuals covered by these contract arrangements. (5) Fund of funds consist of fund-of-fund LLC or commingled fund structures. The underlying assets in these funds are primarily publicly traded equity securities, fixed income securities and commodity-related securities. The LLCs are valued based on net asset values calculated by the fund and are not publicly available. API's pension plans' assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015 by asset category, are as follows: Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2016: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2016 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Equities $ 55,889 $ — $ — $ 55,889 Bonds — 12,805 — 12,805 Property — 15,087 — 15,087 Liability-driven instrument (1) — 27,016 — 27,016 Hedge funds (2) — 7,460 — 7,460 Cash and cash equivalents 70 — — 70 Total pension assets $ 55,959 $ 62,368 $ — $ 118,327 Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2015: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2015 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Equities $ 62,549 $ — $ — $ 62,549 Bonds — 29,661 — 29,661 Index-linked government bonds — 8,721 — 8,721 Property — 12,795 — 12,795 Hedge funds (2) — 15,035 — 15,035 Cash and cash equivalents 474 — — 474 Total pension assets $ 63,023 $ 66,212 $ — $ 129,235 (1) Represents investments in pooled funds. This is a method of investing whereby a portfolio of assets is built with the objective of moving in-line with liabilities. The assets are typically derivative instruments based on government bonds or instruments called swaps which are exposed to the same liability sensitivities (interest rates and inflation) as the pension liabilities. (2) Hedge Funds are pooled investment vehicles that may invest in a wide-range of underlying asset classes, including but not limited to equities and various fixed-income securities as well as alternative investments. These funds have an objective to produce positive returns in all market conditions. Hedge Funds will typically make extensive use of derivatives and may employ leverage to achieve their objective . There were no assets for which fair value was determined using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during 2015 . During 2016 and 2014, changes in the HNH plans' Level 3 assets were as follows: Changes in Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Year Ended December 31, 2016 Convertible Promissory Notes Stock Warrants Total Beginning balance as of January 1, 2016 $ — $ — $ — Transfers into Level 3 — — — Transfers out of Level 3 — — — Gains or losses included in changes in net assets — — — Purchases, issuances, sales and settlements — Purchases 3,500 875 4,375 Issuances — — — Sales — — — Settlements — — — Ending balance as of December 31, 2016 $ 3,500 $ 875 $ 4,375 Changes in Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Year Ended December 31, 2014 Corporate Bonds and Loans Beginning balance as of January 1, 2014 $ 500 Transfers into Level 3 — Transfers out of Level 3 — Gains or losses included in changes in net assets 73 Purchases, issuances, sales and settlements Purchases — Issuances — Sales (573 ) Settlements — Ending balance as of December 31, 2014 $ — HNH's policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of Level 3 as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

Contributions Employer contributions consist of funds paid from employer assets into a qualified pension trust account. HNH's funding policy is to contribute annually an amount that satisfies the minimum funding standards of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. API's funding policy is to contribute monthly an amount that satisfies the API Plan's provisions to meet the level of assets needed to pay benefits in accordance with the statutory funding objectives required in the U.K. HNH expects to have required minimum annual contributions for 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and for the five years thereafter of $34,200 , $31,100 , $39,900 , $36,000 , $32,700 and $80,600 , respectively. API expects to have required minimum annual contributions of $858 for 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, $214 for 2021 and $0 for the five years thereafter. Required future pension contributions are estimated based upon assumptions such as discount rates on future obligations, assumed rates of return on plan assets and legislative changes. Actual future pension costs and required funding obligations will be affected by changes in the factors and assumptions described in the previous sentence, as well as other changes such as any plan termination or other acceleration events. Benefit Payments Estimated future benefit payments for the benefit plans over the next ten years are as follows: Pension Benefits Other Post-Retirement Years HNH Plans API Plan Benefits 2017 $ 43,910 $ 4,876 $ 107 2018 43,472 5,134 105 2019 42,987 5,366 106 2020 42,372 5,599 89 2021 41,672 5,856 82 2022-2026 195,366 33,362 373 401(k) Plans Beginning January 1, 2012, certain employees participate in a SPLP sponsored savings plan which qualifies under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. SPLP presently makes a contribution to match 50% of the first 6% of the employee's contribution. The charge to expense for SPLP's matching contributions totaled $250 , $283 and $243 for the years ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 , respectively. In addition, certain employees participate in a HNH sponsored savings plan which qualifies under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. This savings plan allows eligible employees to contribute from 1% to 75% of their income on a pretax basis. HNH presently makes a contribution to match 50% of the first 6% of the employee's contribution. The charge to expense for HNH's matching contributions amounted to $2,200 in 2016 , $1,900 in 2015 and $2,000 in 2014 . |

CAPITAL AND ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS | CAPITAL AND ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS As of December 31, 2016 the Company had 26,152,976 Class A units (regular common units) outstanding. Common Unit Repurchase Program On December 7, 2016, the Board of Directors of the general partner of the Company approved the repurchase of up to 2,000,000 of the Company's common units (the "Repurchase Program"). The Repurchase Program supersedes and cancels, to the extent any amounts remain available, all previously approved repurchase programs. Any purchases made under the Repurchase Program will be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices or in negotiated transactions off the market, in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In connection with the Repurchase Program, the Company may enter into a stock purchase plan. The Repurchase Program has no termination date. During 2016, the Company purchased 503,463 common units for an aggregate price of approximately $7,297 . Common Unit Issuances Each year, the Company's non-management directors receive annual equity compensation in the form of restricted common units of the Company, valued at $75 on the date of grant. The restrictions vest over a 3 year period, with one-third of the units vesting on the anniversary date of the grants. Also, on December 8, 2016, the Company issued an inducement grant of 130,000 restricted common units of the Company to an employee, valued at approximately $1,900 on the date of the grant. Such units will vest in the amounts of 20,000 units in each of years one to three and 10,000 units in years four to ten. In 2015, SPLP issued units to WGL Capital Corp. (the "Investment Manager"), an affiliate of the Manager. The units issued were for the final settlement of the additional liability due to the Investment Manager of approximately $1,800 . Common Unit Dividend On January 13, 2017, the Company paid dividends of approximately $3,923 to common unitholders of record as of January 3, 2017, excluding a consolidated affiliate. This amount is included in Accrued liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016. This special one-time cash dividend of $0.15 per common unit was declared on December 22, 2016. Any future determination to declare dividends on its common units will remain at the discretion of the Company's board of directors and will be dependent upon a number of factors, including the Company's results of operations, cash flows, financial position and capital requirements, among others. Steel Excel Transaction On December 23, 2016, the Company entered into an Amended Agreement and Plan of Merger with a subsidiary of the Company and Steel Excel to make a tender offer to purchase any and all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Steel Excel not already owned by the Company or any of its affiliates. In exchange for each share of Steel Excel common stock, the Company offered 0.712 of new 6.0% Series A preferred units, no par value (the "SPLP Preferred Units"). The offer commenced on January 9, 2017 and expired on February 6, 2017. As a result of the completion of the offer, the Company issued approximately 2,500,000 SPLP Preferred Units with a fair value and liquidation value of approximately $63,500 to Steel Excel shareholders and the Company now owns 100% of Steel Excel. In accordance with the accounting standard on consolidation, changes in a parent's ownership interest where the parent retains a controlling financial interest in its subsidiary are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest in Steel Excel will be eliminated to reflect the change in SPLP's ownership interest in Steel Excel and the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the amount by which the noncontrolling interest is adjusted will been recognized in Partners' capital. WFHC Ownership Change In December 2015, the Company and its CoSine and WFHC subsidiaries entered into a series of transactions that impacted SPLP's ownership interest in both entities. Prior to these transactions SPLP owned 100% of WFHC and 80.6% of CoSine. • On December 17, 2015, WFHC issued a combination of common and preferred stock to SPLP in exchange for SPLP's existing common stock of WFHC. • On December 28, 2015, CoSine completed a reverse-forward stock split in which CoSine stockholders holding fewer than 80,000 shares had their shares canceled and converted into a right to receive a cash payment for all of their outstanding shares based on the effective date of the stock split. As a result of the reverse forward split, the noncontrolling interest ownership percentage decreased from 19.4% to 11.9% at that time. • On December 31, 2015, WFHC issued new common and preferred shares to all of the previous holders of CoSine common and preferred equity, including the noncontrolling interest holders. As a result, CoSine was merged with and into WFH LLC, which is 100% owned by WFHC, and SPLP's ownership interest in WFHC decreased from 100% to 90.7% at that time. In accordance with the accounting standard on consolidation, a change in a parent's ownership interest while the parent retains a controlling financial interest in its subsidiary is accounted for as an equity transaction. SPLP accounted for its decrease in ownership by recording a noncontrolling interest amount representing the carrying amount of the noncontrolling shareholders' ownership in the new consolidated equity of WFHC at December 31, 2015. The recording of the noncontrolling interest's carrying amount in the consolidated equity of WFHC was recorded as an equity transaction, resulting in a decrease in Partners' capital. DGT Ownership Increase On October 28, 2015, DGT shareholders approved an amendment to DGT's certificate of incorporation in order to complete a 1 -for- 100,000 reverse stock split of DGT's common stock. No fractional shares were issued and shareholders owning fewer than 100,000 shares of common stock had their shares canceled and converted into the right to receive $18.30 , resulting in a payable to shareholders of approximately $8,500 at December 31, 2015. After the reverse stock split, SPLP owned 100% of DGT's common stock. In accordance with the accounting standard on consolidation, a change in a parent's ownership interest while the parent retains a controlling financial interest in its subsidiary is accounted for as an equity transaction. As a result, SPLP accounted for its increase in ownership by adjusting the carrying amount of its noncontrolling interest in DGT. The difference between the consideration paid to the noncontrolling interest holders by DGT and the amount by which the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was adjusted has been recognized in Partners' capital. Tender Offer for SPLP Units On March 25, 2014, the Company commenced a modified "Dutch Auction" tender offer to purchase for cash up to $49,000 in value of its common units, no par value, at a price per unit of not less than $16.50 nor greater than $17.50 per unit. At the purchase price selected by SPLP of $16.50 per unit, SPLP purchased 2,969,696 common units. The Company funded the offer with $1,500 cash on hand and $47,500 of borrowings under its PNC Credit Facility (see Note 11 – "Long-Term Debt"). Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Changes, net of tax, in Accumulated other comprehensive loss are as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2016 Unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities Unrealized loss on derivative financial instruments Cumulative translation adjustments Change in net pension and other benefit obligations Total Balance at beginning of period $ 50,650 $ (1,415 ) $ (9,596 ) $ (93,907 ) $ (54,268 ) Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax - before reclassifications (a) 11,917 (1,055 ) (9,952 ) (15,363 ) (14,453 ) Reclassification adjustments, net of tax (b) (40 ) — — (40 ) Net other comprehensive income (loss) attributable to common unitholders (c) 11,877 (1,055 ) (9,952 ) (15,363 ) (14,493 ) Balance at end of period $ 62,527 $ (2,470 ) $ (19,548 ) $ (109,270 ) $ (68,761 ) (a) Net of tax benefit of approximately $2,300 . (b) Net of tax benefit of approximately $1,600 . (c) Does not include the net unrealized gain on available-for sale securities of $1,474 , the unrealized loss on derivative financial instruments of $103 , cumulative translation adjustment losses of $1,479 and losses from the change in net pension and other post-retirement benefit obligations of $3,450 , which are attributable to noncontrolling interests. Incentive Unit Expense Effective January 1, 2012, SPLP issued to the Manager partnership profits interests in the form of incentive units, a portion of which will be classified as Class C common units of SPLP upon the attainment of certain specified performance goals by SPLP which are determined as of the last day of each fiscal year. If the performance goals are not met for a fiscal year, no portion of the incentive units will be classified as Class C common units for that year. The number of outstanding incentive units is equal to 100% of the common units outstanding, including common units held by non-wholly owned subsidiaries. The performance goals and expense related to the classification of a portion of the incentive units as Class C units is measured on an annual basis, but is accrued on a quarterly basis. Accordingly, the expense accrued is adjusted to reflect the fair value of the Class C common units on each interim calculation date. In the event the cumulative incentive unit expense calculated quarterly or for the full year is an amount less than the total previously accrued, the Company would record a negative incentive unit expense in the quarter when such over accrual is determined. The expense is recorded in SG&A in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. There was no incentive unit expense recorded in any of the three years ended December 31, 2016 . Subsidiary Purchases of the Company's Common Units During the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , two subsidiaries of the Company purchased 983,175 and 473,054 , respectively, of the Company's common units at a total cost of $17,323 and $7,921 , respectively. The purchases of these units are reflected as treasury unit purchases in the Company's consolidated financial statements. |

Such losses are allocable directly to SPLP's common unitholders and taxed when realized. (b) Amounts in 2016, 2015 and 2014 include the tax effect of the non-deductible portion of the goodwill impairments recorded in the fourth quarters of 2016, 2015 and 2014 (see Note 7 - "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Net"). Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences in the financial basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities. The amounts shown on the following table represent the tax effect of temporary differences between the consolidated tax return basis of assets and liabilities and the corresponding basis for financial reporting, as well as tax credit and operating loss carryforwards. December 31, 2016 2015 Deferred Tax Assets: Operating loss carryforwards (a) $ 187,880 $ 211,045 Postretirement and postemployment employee benefits 108,571 108,316 Tax credit carryforwards 46,517 50,207 Accrued costs 9,600 8,801 Investment impairments and unrealized losses 19,244 24,165 Inventories 4,109 299 Environmental costs 3,042 1,013 Impairment of long-lived assets 3,245 551 Capital loss 8,543 — Other 11,995 11,532 Gross deferred tax assets 402,746 415,929 Deferred Tax Liabilities: Intangible assets (52,149 ) (36,528 ) Fixed assets (39,898 ) (39,362 ) Unremitted foreign earnings (181 ) (256 ) Other (5,479 ) (7,093 ) Gross deferred tax liabilities (97,707 ) (83,239 ) Valuation allowance (b) (126,163 ) (124,555 ) Net deferred tax assets $ 178,876 $ 208,135 Classified on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as follows: Deferred tax assets $ 182,605 $ 212,894 Deferred tax liabilities 3,729 4,759 $ 178,876 $ 208,135 (a) The ability for certain subsidiaries to utilize its net operating loss and other credit carryforwards would be subject to limitation upon changes in control. (b) Certain subsidiaries of the Company establish valuation allowances when they determine, based on their assessment, that it is more likely than not that certain deferred tax assets will not be fully realized. This assessment is based on, but not limited to, historical operating results, uncertainty in projections of taxable income, and other uncertainties that may be specific to a particular business. During 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company changed its judgment about the realizability of its deferred tax assets at certain subsidiaries. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the effect of a change in the beginning-of-the-year balance of a valuation allowance that results from a change in circumstances that causes a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset in future years should be included in income from continuing operations in the period of the change. In 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded tax benefits in continuing operations of approximately $1,327 , $111,881 and $7,730 associated with the reversal of its deferred tax valuation allowances at certain subsidiaries. HNH The Company's 2016 tax provision reflects the utilization of approximately $26,000 of U.S. federal NOLs. At December 31, 2016 , HNH has U.S. federal NOLs of approximately $37,800 that expire between 2020 and 2031. Such amounts were acquired by HNH as a result of the JPS acquisition in 2015. The utilization of the JPS NOLs is subject to certain annual limitations under the ownership change rules of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. HNH provides for income taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-U.S. corporate subsidiaries except to the extent that such earnings are permanently invested outside the U.S. As of December 31, 2016 , $7,600 of accumulated undistributed earnings of non-U.S. corporate subsidiaries were permanently invested. At existing applicable income tax rates, additional taxes of approximately $2,700 would need to be provided if such earnings were remitted. Steel Excel At December 31, 2016 , Steel Excel had federal NOLs of approximately $158,000 that expire in 2022 through 2036, and domestic state NOLs of approximately $158,100 that will expire in 2017 through 2036. Steel Excel also has federal research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $30,300 that expire in 2018 through 2029, and domestic state research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $17,700 that do not expire. Federal income taxes and foreign withholding taxes associated with the repatriation of earnings of foreign subsidiaries have been fully provided. Steel Excel has a valuation allowance to reserve its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015. Of the total federal NOLs, approximately $10,500 related to deductions for stock-based compensation, the tax benefit of which will be credited to additional paid-in capital when realized. Upon the adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 on January 1, 2017 (see Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies"), a tax benefit of $4,600 associated with the NOLs to deductions for stock-based compensation was recognized as a deferred tax asset through a cumulative-effect adjustment to Partners' capital. Concurrent with the recognition of the deferred tax asset and in accordance with ASU No. 2016-09, a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset was recognized through a cumulative-effect adjustment to Partners' capital, resulting in no net impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements. WFHC As discussed in Note 14 - "Capital and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss" WFHC and Cosine entered into a series of transactions whereby CoSine was merged with and into WFH LLC, a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of WFHC, which is disregarded for income tax purposes. This merger was a tax-free transaction which was completed and declared effective on December 31, 2015. WFHC is also the parent company of WebBank. The transaction was characterized as a reverse acquisition for federal income tax purposes. As a result, WFHC elected to file a consolidated federal income tax return, which included WebBank and the newly merged CoSine business (the "WFHC U.S. Consolidated Group"), with CoSine considered to be the parent of the consolidated federal group. Accordingly, the tax attributes acquired in the merger can be utilized against the taxable income of the affiliated group, generally without limitation. At December 31, 2016 , the WFHC U.S. Consolidated Group had federal NOLs of approximately of $291,845 that expire between 2021 and 2033, and state NOLs of approximately $77,622 that expire between 2021 and 2025, as well as federal and state tax credit carryforwards of $7,540 . As noted above, for the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded tax benefits in continuing operations of approximately $111,881 associated with the reversal of its deferred tax valuation allowances. Such amount was attributable against the deferred tax asset related to the aforementioned federal NOLs. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company revised its calculation of the expected benefit to be derived from the realizability of federal deferred tax assets of the WFHC U.S. Consolidated Group and recorded an additional tax benefit in continuing operations of approximately $4,182 . However, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance (approximately $11,415 ) against the deferred tax assets related to the state NOLs and tax credit carryforwards given its judgment about the realizability of the associated deferred tax assets. API As of December 31, 2016 , API had approximately $4,320 of non-U.S. NOLs that do not expire. A valuation allowance to reserve the associated deferred tax assets from the NOLs exists at December 31, 2016 . In addition, U.S. subsidiaries of API had approximately $7,759 of federal NOLs that are scheduled to expire between 2023 and 2033 and are subject to certain annual limitations under the change of ownership rules of Internal Revenue Section 382. API has a valuation allowance to reserve the entire amount of the deferred tax assets associated with the federal NOLs at December 31, 2016 . DGT As of October 31, 2016, DGT had approximately $16,572 of federal NOLs that are scheduled to expire from 2020 to 2036. DGT also had various state NOLs of $28,295 that expire at various times between 2019 and 2036. DGT has a valuation allowance to reserve the entire amount of the deferred tax assets associated with its federal and state NOLs at December 31, 2016 . As described in Note 1 - "Nature of the Business and Basis of Presentation," the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 includes DGT's activity as of and for its twelve months ended October 31, 2016. Unrecognized Tax Benefits U.S. GAAP provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can be recognized in the financial statements only if the position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The change in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits (related solely to HNH and Steel Excel) for 2016 and 2015 was as follows: Balance at December 31, 2014 $ 20,350 Additions for tax positions related to current year 9,056 Additions due to interest accrued 85 Payments (57 ) Reductions due to lapsed statute of limitations (362 ) Balance at December 31, 2015 29,072 Additions for tax positions related to current year 175 Additions for tax positions acquired 1,114 Additions due to interest accrued 148 Payments — Reductions due to lapsed statute of limitations (1,115 ) Balance at December 31, 2016 $ 29,394 The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in its income tax expense. HNH Unrecognized Tax Benefits At December 31, 2016 and 2015 , HNH had approximately $2,581 and $1,786 , respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits recorded, all of which, net of federal benefit for state taxes, would affect the Company's effective tax rate if recognized. Of this amount, HNH has offset approximately $300 and $0 against certain related deferred tax assets in the same jurisdiction as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015 , approximately $300 and $ 100 of interest related to uncertain tax positions was accrued. No penalties were accrued. It is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by as much as $600 during the next year as a result of the lapse of the applicable statutes of limitations in certain taxing jurisdictions. HNH is generally no longer subject to federal, state or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for any year prior to 2013, except as noted below. However, NOLs generated in prior years are subject to examination and potential adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") upon their utilization in future years' tax returns. HNH is not currently under examination by the IRS, but has received a notice of examination for tax year 2014, which has not commenced. HNH is currently under examination by the State of New York for 2012 to 2013, which is on-going. HNH has not been notified of any material adjustments to be made as a result of this examination. HNH underwent an examination by the State of New York for 2009 to 2011, which resulted in an assessment of $100 paid in January 2016. Steel Excel Unrecognized Tax Benefits Steel Excel's total gross unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $26,800 and $27,300 at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, of which $200 , if recognized, would affect the provision for income taxes. In 2016, Steel Excel reversed approximately $500 of reserves for foreign taxes upon the expiration of the statute of limitations. Steel Excel recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in its income tax provision in its consolidated financial statements. For the years ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 , the amount of such interest and penalties recognized was immaterial. Steel Excel is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income taxes in many domestic states and foreign jurisdictions in which they operate or formerly operated in. As of December 31, 2016 , fiscal years 1999 onward remain open to examination by the U.S. taxing authorities. The Company is currently under income tax examination by the State of New York for the tax years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014. In 2014, tax examinations were completed for fiscal years 2009 through 2013 in Singapore, resulting in a refund to the Company of $1,700 . The Company is not currently under tax examination in any foreign jurisdictions. Other Subsidiaries SPLP's other subsidiaries file federal tax returns and as applicable state, local and foreign tax returns in various jurisdictions. Federal tax returns for all other consolidated subsidiaries remain open and subject to examination by the IRS for all tax years after 2012. In addition, NOLs generated in prior years are subject to examination and potential adjustment by the IRS upon their utilization in future years' tax returns. State income tax returns for most jurisdictions remain open generally for all tax years after 2012. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 are summarized by type of inputs applicable to the fair value measurements as follows: December 31, 2016 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Marketable securities (a) $ 25,498 $ 3,994 $ 24,158 $ 53,650 Long-term investments (a) 111,424 4,350 1,242 117,016 Investments in certain funds — — 469 469 Precious metal and commodity inventories recorded at fair value 10,143 — — 10,143 Economic interests in loans — — 6,162 6,162 Foreign currency forward exchange contracts — 92 — 92 Total $ 147,065 $ 8,436 $ 32,031 $ 187,532 Liabilities: Financial instrument obligations $ 12,640 $ — $ — $ 12,640 Commodity contracts on precious metal and commodity inventories — 108 — 108 Foreign currency forward exchange contracts — 1,040 1,040 Total $ 12,640 $ 1,148 $ — $ 13,788 December 31, 2015 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Marketable securities (a) $ 47,274 $ 6,143 $ 27,425 $ 80,842 Long-term investments (a) 160,574 — 2,474 163,048 Investments in certain funds — — 555 555 Precious metal and commodity inventories recorded at fair value 10,380 — — 10,380 Commodity contracts on precious metals and commodity inventories — 215 — 215 Foreign currency forward exchange contracts — 325 — 325 Total $ 218,228 $ 6,683 $ 30,454 $ 255,365 Liabilities: Financial instrument obligations $ 21,639 $ — $ — $ 21,639 Interest rate swap agreements — 30 — 30 Foreign currency forward exchange contracts — 30 — 30 Total $ 21,639 $ 60 $ — $ 21,699 (a) For additional detail of the marketable securities and long-term investments see Note 9 - "Investments." There were no transfers of securities among the various measurement input levels during the year ended December 31, 2016. The fair value of the Company's financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and accounts payable, approximate carrying value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. Carrying cost approximates fair value for long-term debt which has variable interest rates. The precious metal and commodity inventories associated with HNH's fair value hedges (see Note 12 - "Financial Instruments") are reported at fair value. Fair values of these inventories are based on quoted market prices on commodity exchanges and are considered Level 1 measurements. The derivative instruments that HNH purchases in connection with its precious metal and commodity inventories, specifically commodity futures and forward contracts, are also valued at fair value. The futures contracts are Level 1 measurements since they are traded on a commodity exchange. The forward contracts are entered into with a counterparty and are considered Level 2 measurements. Interest rate swap agreements were considered Level 2 measurements as the inputs were observable at commonly quoted intervals. These agreements expired in February 2016. Following is a summary of changes in financial assets measured using Level 3 inputs: Long-Term Investments Investments in Associated Companies (a) Other Investments - Related Party (a) MLNK Warrants (a) Marketable Securities and Other (b) Total Assets Balance at December 31, 2013 $ 2,243 $ 10,228 $ 5,832 $ 24,209 $ 42,512 Purchases — — — 13,294 13,294 Sales and cash collections — (1,496 ) — (5,001 ) (6,497 ) Realized gain on sale — — — (129 ) (129 ) Unrealized gains — 2,411 99 2,048 4,558 Unrealized losses (80 ) (1,520 ) (3,732 ) — (5,332 ) Balance at December 31, 2014 $ 2,163 $ 9,623 $ 2,199 $ 34,421 $ 48,406 Purchases — — — 5,183 5,183 Sales and cash collections — (9,985 ) — (2,953 ) (12,938 ) Realized loss on sale — — — 8 8 Unrealized gains — 484 — — 484 Unrealized losses (232 ) (122 ) (1,656 ) (8,679 ) (10,689 ) Balance at December 31, 2015 1,931 — 543 27,980 30,454 Sales and cash collections — — — (8,848 ) (8,848 ) Unrealized gains — — — 11,657 11,657 Unrealized losses (708 ) — (524 ) — (1,232 ) Balance at December 31, 2016 $ 1,223 $ — $ 19 $ 30,789 $ 32,031 (a) Unrealized losses are recorded in Income (loss) of associated companies and other investments held at fair value, net of taxes in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. (b) Realized gains and losses on sale are recorded in Other income, net or Revenue in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Long-Term Investments - Valuation Techniques The Company estimates the value of one of its investments in an associated company primarily using a discounted cash flow method adjusted for additional information related to debt covenants, solvency issues and other related matters. The MLNK warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Marketable Securities and Other - Valuation Techniques The Company uses the net asset value included in quarterly statements it receives in arrears from a venture capital fund to determine the fair value of such fund and determines the fair value of certain corporate securities and corporate obligations by incorporating and reviewing prices provided by third-party pricing services based on the specific features of the underlying securities. The fair value of the derivatives held by WebBank (see Note 12 - "Financial Instruments") represent the estimated amounts that WebBank would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and is based on discounted cash flows analyses that consider credit, performance and prepayment. Unobservable inputs used in the discounted cash flow analyses are: a constant prepayment rate of 7.28% to 28.99% , a constant default rate of 1.74% to 17.86% and a discount rate of 5.25% to 18.32% . Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis The Company's non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill and other intangible assets, any assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, or its long-lived assets written down to fair value. To measure fair value for such assets and liabilities, the Company uses techniques including an income approach, a market approach and/or appraisals (Level 3 inputs). The income approach is based on a discounted cash flow analysis and calculates the fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to an asset or liability and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis ("DCF") require the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates and terminal values, growth rates and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The discount rates, which are intended to reflect the risks inherent in future cash flow projections, used in the DCF are based on estimates of the weighted-average cost of capital of a market participant. Such estimates are derived from analysis of peer companies and consider the industry weighted-average return on debt and equity from a market participant perspective. A market approach values a business by considering the prices at which shares of capital stock, or related underlying assets, of reasonably comparable companies are trading in the public market or the transaction price at which similar companies have been acquired. If comparable companies are not available, the market approach is not used. In 2016, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $24,254 in the fourth quarter of 2016, related to the performance materials business within its Diversified Industrial segment. The impairment resulted from a decline in market conditions and lower demand for certain product lines. Long-lived assets consisting of land and buildings used in previously operating businesses and currently unused, which total $10,393 as of December 31, 2016, are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell and are included in Other non-current assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. A reduction in the carrying value of such long-lived assets is recorded as an asset impairment charge in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2015, WebBank has impaired loans with a fair value of $423 that were collateral-dependent, and that were measured at fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs using Level 3 inputs. There were no such impaired loans as of December 31, 2016. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating Lease Commitments The Company has certain facilities under non-cancelable operating lease arrangements. Rent expense recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 was $15,335 , $10,026 and $8,501 , respectively. Future minimum operating lease and rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases for SPLP consolidated operations are as follows: Payments due by period Amount 2017 $ 9,411 2018 6,749 2019 5,911 2020 4,151 2021 3,440 Thereafter 12,321 Total $ 41,983 Environmental and Litigation Matters As discussed in more detail below, certain of the Company's subsidiaries have been designated as potentially responsible parties ("PRPs") by federal and state agencies with respect to certain sites with which they may have had direct or indirect involvement and as defendants in certain litigation matters. The environmental claims are in various stages of administrative or judicial proceedings and include demands for recovery of past governmental costs and for future investigations and remedial actions. In many cases, the dollar amounts of the claims have not been specified and, with respect to a number of the PRP claims, have been asserted against a number of other entities for the same cost recovery or other relief as was asserted against certain of the Company's subsidiaries. The Company accrues costs associated with environmental and litigation matters, on an undiscounted basis, when they become probable and reasonably estimable. As of December 31, 2016 , on a consolidated basis, the Company has accrued liabilities of $11,749 , which represent the current estimate of the probable cleanup liabilities, including remediation, legal costs and litigation reserves. Expenses relating to these costs, and any recoveries, are included in SG&A in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. In addition, the Company has insurance coverage available for several of these matters and believes that excess insurance coverage may be available as well. Estimates of the Company's liability for remediation of a particular site and the method and ultimate cost of remediation require a number of assumptions that are inherently difficult to make, and the ultimate outcome may be materially different from current estimates. Environmental Matters Certain HNH subsidiaries, including its newly acquired subsidiary SLI, have existing and contingent liabilities relating to environmental matters, including costs of remediation, capital expenditures, and potential fines and penalties relating to possible violations of national and state environmental laws. Those subsidiaries have remediation expenses on an ongoing basis, although such costs are continually being readjusted based upon the emergence of new techniques and alternative methods. HNH recorded current liabilities of approximately $9,600 related to estimated environmental remediation costs as of December 31, 2016. HNH also has insurance coverage available for several of these matters and believes that excess insurance coverage may be available as well. During the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, HNH recorded insurance reimbursements totaling $2,900 and $3,100 , respectively, for previously incurred remediation costs. No similar reimbursements were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2016. Included among these liabilities, certain HNH subsidiaries have been identified as PRPs under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA") or similar state statutes at sites and are parties to administrative consent orders in connection with certain properties. Those subsidiaries may be subject to joint and several liabilities imposed by CERCLA on PRPs. Due to the technical and regulatory complexity of remedial activities and the difficulties attendant in identifying PRPs and allocating or determining liability among them, the subsidiaries are unable to reasonably estimate the ultimate cost of compliance with such laws. Similarly, BNS LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the BNS Liquidating Trust, has been named as a PRP at one previously disclosed site and a then-subsidiary of BNS ("BNS Sub") has been identified as a PRP at another previously disclosed site. Based upon information currently available, BNS Liquidating Trust and BNS Sub do not expect that their respective environmental costs or that the resolution of these environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company, but there can be no such assurances to this effect. Based upon information currently available, the HNH subsidiaries do not expect that their respective environmental costs, including the incurrence of additional fines and penalties, if any, will have a material adverse effect on them or that the resolution of these environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of such subsidiaries or HNH, but there can be no such assurances. HNH anticipates that the subsidiaries will pay any such amounts out of their respective working capital, although there is no assurance that they will have sufficient funds to pay them. In the event that the HNH subsidiaries are unable to fund their liabilities, claims could be made against their respective parent companies, including HNH, for payment of such liabilities. The sites where certain HNH subsidiaries have environmental liabilities include the following: HNH has been working with the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection ("CTDEEP") with respect to its obligations under a 1989 consent order that applies to a property in Connecticut that HNH sold in 2003 ("Sold Parcel") and an adjacent parcel ("Adjacent Parcel") that together comprise the site of a former HNH manufacturing facility. The remaining remediation, monitoring and regulatory administrative costs for the Sold Parcel are expected to approximate $100 . With respect to the Adjacent Parcel, an ecological risk assessment has been completed and the results, along with proposed clean up goals, were submitted in the second quarter of 2016 to the CTDEEP for their review and approval. The next phase will be a physical investigation of the upland portion of the parcel. A work plan was submitted in the third quarter of 2016 to the CTDEEP for review and approval. The CTDEEP has not completed their review and approval, but the work is expected to start in the first half of 2017 and is estimated to cost $200 . Investigation of the wetlands portion is not expected to start until the later part of 2017, pending regulatory approvals and setting goals for the entire parcel. The total remediation costs for the Adjacent Parcel cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the resolution of this matter will not be material to the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of HNH. In 1986, Handy & Harman Electronic Materials Corporation ("HHEM"), a subsidiary of HNH, entered into an administrative consent order ("ACO") with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection ("NJDEP") with regard to certain property that it purchased in 1984 in New Jersey. The ACO involves investigation and remediation activities to be performed with regard to soil and groundwater contamination. HHEM is actively remediating the property and continuing to investigate effective methods for achieving compliance with the ACO. HHEM anticipates entering into discussions with the NJDEP to address that agency's potential natural resource damage claims, the ultimate scope and cost of which cannot be estimated at this time. Pursuant to a settlement agreement with the former owner/operator of the site, the responsibility for site investigation and remediation costs, as well as any other costs, as defined in the settlement agreement, related to or arising from environmental contamination on the property (collectively, "Costs") are contractually allocated 75% to the former owner/operator and 25% jointly to HHEM and HNH, all after having the first $1,000 paid by the former owner/operator. As of December 31, 2016, total investigation and remediation costs of approximately $5,700 and $1,800 have been expended by the former owner/operator and HHEM, respectively, in accordance with the settlement agreement. Additionally, HHEM is currently being reimbursed indirectly through insurance coverage for a portion of the Costs for which HHEM is responsible. HHEM believes that there is additional excess insurance coverage, which it intends to pursue as necessary. HHEM anticipates that there will be additional remediation expenses to be incurred once a final remediation plan is agreed upon. There is no assurance that the former owner/operator or guarantors will continue to timely reimburse HHEM for expenditures and/or will be financially capable of fulfilling their obligations under the settlement agreement and the guaranties. The final Costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, and accordingly, there can be no assurance that the resolution of this matter will not be material to the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of HHEM or HNH. HHEM has been complying with a 1987 ACO from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection ("MADEP") to investigate and remediate the soil and groundwater conditions at a commercial/industrial property in Massachusetts. On June 30, 2010, HHEM filed a Response Action Outcome ("RAO") report to close the site since HHEM's licensed site professional concluded that groundwater monitoring demonstrated that the groundwater conditions have stabilized or continue to improve at the site. In June 2013, the MADEP issued a Notice of Audit Findings and Notice of Noncompliance that the site had not been fully delineated. As a result of meetings and subsequent discussions with the MADEP, HHEM conducted additional work that was completed in 2015. Based on the additional work and regulatory changes, and pursuant to a new ACO issued in October 2016, HHEM issued a revised partial RAO report in December 2016. The partial RAO excluded three adjacent properties on which deed restrictions could not be resolved with the property owners, but it does demonstrate that the other portions of the site have met all regulatory requirements for "closure." The next phase is the submission of a "Temporary Solution Statement" in the first half of 2017, which will demonstrate that no active response actions are warranted for the three excluded properties. The cost of the next phase, well decommissioning, and any additional costs that could result from the final review of the closure report by the MADEP, are not anticipated to be material. SLI may incur environmental costs in the future as a result of past activities of its former subsidiary, SurfTech, at sites located in Pennsauken, New Jersey ("Pennsauken Site") and in Camden, New Jersey ("Camden Site"). At the Pennsauken Site, SLI reached an agreement with both the U.S. Department of Justice and the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") related to its liability and entered into a Consent Decree which governs the agreement. SLI agreed to perform remediation, which is substantially complete, and to pay a fixed sum for the EPA's past costs. The fixed sum is to be paid in installments, and the final payment of $2,100 is due to be made in the second quarter of 2017. In December 2012, the NJDEP served SLI with a settlement demand of $1,800 for alleged past and future costs, as well as alleged natural resource damages related to the Pennsauken Site. Although SLI believes that it has meritorious defenses to any claim for costs and natural resource damages, to avoid the time and expense of litigating the matter, on February 13, 2013, SLI offered to pay the State of New Jersey $300 to fully resolve the claim. On June 29, 2015, the State of New Jersey rejected SLI's counteroffer. No subsequent discussions have been had. The final scope and cost of this claim cannot be estimated at this time. With respect to the Camden Site, SLI has reported soil contamination and a groundwater contamination plume emanating from the site. A Remedial Action Workplan ("RAWP") for soils is being developed and is expected to be submitted to the NJDEP in the first quarter of 2017, by the Licensed Site Remediation Professional ("LSRP") for the site. The RAWP for treatment of unsaturated soils is scheduled to be initiated during the first quarter of 2017 with post-remediation rebound testing and slab removal to be conducted in the fourth quarter of 2017. SLI's environmental consultants also implemented an interim remedial action pilot study to treat on-site contaminated groundwater, which consisted of injecting food-grade product into the groundwater at the down gradient property boundary to create a "bio-barrier." Post-injection groundwater monitoring to assess the bio-barrier's effectiveness was completed. Consistent decreases in target contaminants concentrations in groundwater were observed. In December 2014, a report was submitted to the NJDEP stating sufficient information was obtained from the pilot study to complete the full-scale groundwater remedy design. A full-scale groundwater bioremediation will be implemented during the fourth quarter of 2017 following the soil remediation mentioned above. A reserve of $1,400 has been established for anticipated costs at this site, but there can be no assurance that there will not be potential additional costs associated with the site which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the resolution of this matter will not be material to the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of SLI or HNH. SLI is currently participating in environmental assessment and cleanup at a commercial facility located in Wayne, New Jersey. Contaminated soil and groundwater has undergone remediation with the NJDEP and LSRP oversight, but contaminants of concern ("COCs") in groundwater and surface water, which extend off-site, remain above applicable NJDEP remediation standards. A soil remedial action plan has been developed to remove the new soil source contamination that continues to impact groundwater. SLI's LSRP completed a supplemental groundwater remedial action, pursuant to a RAWP filed with, and permit approved by, the NJDEP, and a report was filed with the NJDEP in March 2015. SLI's consultants have developed cost estimates for supplemental remedial injections, soil excavation, and additional tests and remedial activities. The LSRP has prepared a Remedial Investigation Report, which was sent to the NJDEP in May 2016. Off-site access to the adjacent property has been negotiated and monitoring wells have been installed. Results of the initial samples detected COCs above NJDEP standards. There can be no assurance that there will not be potential additional costs associated with the site, which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the resolution of this matter will not be material to the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of SLI or HNH. Litigation Matters BNS Litigation Matters BNS Sub has been named as a defendant in 1,371 alleged asbestos-related toxic-tort claims as of December 31, 2016 . The claims were filed over a period beginning 1994 through December 31, 2016 . In many cases these claims involved more than 100 defendants. Of the claims filed, 1,314 were dismissed, settled or granted summary judgment and closed as of December 31, 2016 . Of the claims settled, the average settlement was less than $3 . There remained 57 pending asbestos claims as of December 31, 2016 . There can be no assurance that the number of future claims and the related costs of defense, settlements or judgments will be consistent with the experience to date of existing claims. BNS Sub has insurance policies covering asbestos-related claims for years beginning 1974 through 1988 with estimated aggregate coverage limits of $183,000 , with $1,543 at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, in estimated remaining self-insurance retention (deductible). There is secondary evidence of coverage from 1970 to 1973 although there is no assurance that the insurers will recognize that the coverage was in place. Policies issued for BNS Sub beginning in 1989 contained exclusions related to asbestos. Under certain circumstances, some of the settled claims may be reopened. Also, there may be a significant delay in receipt of notification by BNS Sub of the entry of a dismissal or settlement of a claim or the filing of a new claim. BNS Sub believes it has significant defenses to any liability for toxic-tort claims on the merits. None of these toxic-tort claims has gone to trial and, therefore, there can be no assurance that these defenses will prevail. BNS Sub annually receives retroactive billings or credits from its insurance carriers for any increase or decrease in claims accruals as claims are filed, settled or dismissed, or as estimates of the ultimate settlement and defense costs for the then-existing claims are revised. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015 , BNS Sub has accrued $1,349 and $1,422 , respectively, relating to the open and active claims against BNS Sub. This accrual represents the Company's best estimate of the likely costs to defend against or settle these claims by BNS Sub beyond the amounts accrued by the insurance carriers and previously funded, through the retroactive billings by BNS Sub. There can be no assurance that the number of future claims and the related costs of defense, settlements or judgments will be consistent with the experience to date of existing claims, and that BNS Sub will not need to increase significantly its estimated liability for the costs to settle these claims to an amount that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Other Litigation Matters In the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to periodic lawsuits, investigations, claims and proceedings, including, but not limited to, contractual disputes, employment, environmental, health and safety matters, as well as claims associated with our historical acquisitions and divestitures. There is insurance coverage available for many of the foregoing actions. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits, investigations, claims and proceedings asserted against us, we do not believe any currently pending legal proceeding to which we are a party will have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, cash flows, results of operations or liquidity. |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Management Agreement with SP General Services LLC SPLP is managed by the Manager, pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, which receives a fee at an annual rate of 1.5% of total Partners' capital ("Management Fee"), payable on the first day of each quarter and subject to quarterly adjustment. In addition, SPLP may issue to the Manager partnership profits interests in the form of incentive units, which will be classified as Class C common units of SPLP, upon the attainment of certain specified performance goals by SPLP, which are determined as of the last day of each fiscal year (see Note 14 - "Capital and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss" for additional information on the incentive units and additional information on common units issued to the Investment Manager in 2015). The Management Agreement is automatically renewed each December 31 for successive one -year terms unless otherwise determined at least 60 days prior to each renewal date by a majority of the independent directors. The Management Fee was $8,583 , $8,150 and $8,775 for the year ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The Management Fee is included in SG&A in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. There were no unpaid amounts for management fees at December 31, 2016 or 2015 . SPLP will bear (or reimburse the Manager with respect to) all its reasonable costs and expenses of the managed entities, the Manager, SPH GP or their affiliates, including but not limited to: legal, tax, accounting, auditing, consulting, administrative, compliance, investor relations costs related to being a public entity rendered for SPLP or SPH GP, as well as expenses incurred by the Manager and SPH GP which are reasonably necessary for the performance by the Manager of its duties and functions under the Management Agreement and certain other expenses incurred by managers, officers, employees and agents of the Manager or its affiliates on behalf of SPLP. Reimbursable expenses incurred by the Manager in connection with its provision of services under the Management Agreement were approximately $4,222 , $2,906 and $3,100 during the year ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 , respectively. Unpaid amounts for reimbursable expenses were approximately $1,031 and $695 at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, and are included in Payables to related parties on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Corporate Services Steel Services, through Management Services Agreements with its subsidiaries and portfolio companies, provides services, which include assignment of C-Level management personnel, legal, tax, accounting, treasury, consulting, auditing, administrative, compliance, environmental health and safety, human resources, marketing, investor relations, operating group management and other similar services.

Regulatory Matters [Abstract] | |
REGULATORY MATTERS | REGULATORY MATTERS WebBank WebBank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on WebBank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, WebBank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. WebBank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. In July 2013, the FDIC approved the final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's capital guidelines for U.S. banks ("Basel III"). Under the final rules, which began for WebBank on January 1, 2015 and are subject to a phase-in period through January 1, 2019, minimum requirements will increase for both the quantity and quality of capital held by WebBank. The rules include a new common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio ("CET1 Ratio") of 4.5% and a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, which when fully phased-in, effectively results in a minimum CET1 Ratio of 7.0% . Basel III raises the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0% (which, with the capital conservation buffer, effectively results in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% when fully phased-in), effectively results in a minimum total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 10.5% (with the capital conservation buffer fully phased-in), and requires a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0% . Basel III also makes changes to risk weights for certain assets and off-balance-sheet exposures. WebBank expects that its capital ratios under Basel III will continue to exceed the well capitalized minimum capital requirements and such amounts are disclosed in the table below: Amount of Capital Required Actual For Capital Adequacy Purposes Minimum Capital Adequacy With Capital Buffer To Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Provisions As of December 31, 2016 Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) $ 90,369 33.90 % $ 21,320 8.00 % $ 22,985 8.63 % $ 26,649 10.00 % Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) $ 88,698 33.30 % $ 15,990 6.00 % $ 17,655 6.63 % $ 21,320 8.00 % Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) $ 88,698 33.30 % $ 11,992 4.50 % $ 13,658 5.13 % $ 17,322 6.50 % Tier 1 Capital (to average assets) $ 88,698 22.20 % $ 15,956 4.00 % n/a n/a $ 19,944 5.00 % As of December 31, 2015 Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) $ 65,353 22.66 % $ 23,076 8.00 % n/a n/a $ 28,845 10.00 % Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) $ 64,535 22.37 % $ 17,307 6.00 % n/a n/a $ 23,076 8.00 % Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) $ 64,535 22.37 % $ 12,980 4.50 % n/a n/a $ 18,749 6.50 % Tier 1 Capital (to average assets) $ 64,535 19.68 % $ 13,116 4.00 % n/a n/a $ 16,395 5.00 % SPLP The Company historically has conducted its business, and continues to conduct its business and operations, in such a manner so as not to be deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"). Under the Act, the Company is required to meet certain quantitative tests related to the Company's assets and/or income, and to refrain from trading for short-term speculative purposes. The Company has taken actions, including liquidating certain of our assets and acquiring additional interests in existing or new subsidiaries or controlled companies, to comply with these tests, or a relevant exception. Also, since the Company operates as a diversified holding company engaged in a variety of operating businesses, we do not believe we are primarily engaged in an investment company type business, nor do we propose to primarily engage in such a business. If we were deemed to be an investment company under the Act, we may need to further adjust our business strategy and assets, including divesting certain desirable assets immediately to fall outside of the definition or within an exemption, to register as an investment company or to cease operations. |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On March 6, 2017, the Company announced that it submitted a proposal to the independent members of the board of directors of HNH to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of HNH not owned by the Company or its subsidiaries for a price of $29.00 per share, or approximately $106,700 of value. The Company currently owns approximately 70% of HNH's outstanding shares. The Company's proposal contemplates that HNH's stockholders (other than the Company and its subsidiaries) would receive in total approximately $106,700 in liquidation preference of SPLP's 6.0% Series A preferred units that currently trade on the New York Stock Exchange. The proposed transaction is subject to the approval of the board of directors of HNH and the negotiation and execution of mutually acceptable definitive transaction documents. The Company's proposal contemplates that a special committee of independent directors would be appointed by the board of directors of HNH to consider the proposal and make a recommendation to the board, and that SPLP will not move forward with the proposed transaction unless it results from such a process and is approved by such a special committee. In addition, the proposed transaction will be subject to a non-waivable condition requiring the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares of HNH not owned by the Company or its affiliates, as well as other customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that any of the foregoing approvals will be obtained, that a definitive agreement will be executed or that any transaction will be consummated. |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN34
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2016 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Use of Estimates in Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements | Use of Estimates in Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues, expenses, unrealized gains and losses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates include: (1) the valuation allowances of accounts receivable and inventory; (2) the valuation of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets and associated companies; (3) deferred tax assets; (4) environmental liabilities; (5) fair value of derivatives; (6) post-employment benefit liabilities; (7) estimates and assumptions used in the determination of fair value of certain securities, such as whether declines in value of securities are other than temporary; and (8) estimates of loan losses. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the consolidated financial statements; and, due to substantial holdings in and/or restrictions on certain investments, the value that may be realized could differ from the estimated fair value. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include qualifying money market funds and exclude amounts where availability is restricted by loan agreements or other contractual provisions. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value. There is a significant concentration of cash that, during the periods presented, exceeded the federal deposit insurance limits and exposed the Company to credit risk. SPLP does not anticipate any losses due to this concentration of cash at December 31, 2016 . Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and deposits in depository institutions, financial institutions and banks. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash Restricted cash at December 31, 2016 and 2015 primarily represents cash collateral for certain short sales of corporate securities (see Note 12 - "Financial Instruments" for additional information). |
Marketable Securities and Long-Term Investments | Marketable Securities and Long-Term Investments Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and consist of short-term deposits, corporate debt and equity instruments, and mutual funds. The Company classifies its marketable securities as current assets based on the nature of the securities and their availability for use in current operations. Long-term investments consist of available-for-sale securities and equity method investments. Held-to-maturity securities are classified in Other non-current assets. SPLP determines the appropriate classifications of its investments at the acquisition date and re-evaluates the classifications at each balance sheet date. • Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCI") as a separate component of SPLP's Partners' capital. • Associated companies represent equity method investments in companies where our ownership is between 20% and 50% of the outstanding equity and the Company has the ability to exercise influence, but not control, over the investee. For equity method investments where the fair value option has been elected, unrealized gains and losses are reported in the Company's consolidated statement of operations as part of income (loss) from equity method investments and includes income (loss) of certain associated companies and income (loss) from other investments - related party. For the equity method investments where the fair value option has not been elected, SPLP records the investment at cost and subsequently increases or decreases the investment by its proportionate share of the net income or losses and other comprehensive income of the investee. • Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost, adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. Dividend and interest income is recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are included in earnings and are derived using the specific-identification method. Commission expense is recorded as a reduction of sales proceeds on investment sales. Commission expense on purchases is included in the cost of investments on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. |
Other Than Temporary Impairment | Other Than Temporary Impairment If the Company believes a decline in the market value of any available-for-sale, equity method or held-to-maturity security below cost is other than temporary, a loss is charged to earnings, which establishes a new cost basis for the security. Impairment losses are included in Asset impairment charges in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. SPLP's determination of whether a security is other than temporarily impaired incorporates both quantitative and qualitative information. The Company considers a number of factors including, but not limited to, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the length of time expected for recovery, the financial condition of the issuer, the reason for the decline in fair value, changes in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date, the ability and intent to hold investments to maturity, and other factors specific to the individual investment. Specifically, for held-to-maturity securities, the Company considers whether it plans to sell the security or it is more-likely-than-not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost. The credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment loss is recognized in earnings and the non-credit component is recognized in AOCI in situations where the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is more likely-than-not that the Company will not be required to sell the security prior to recovery. If there is an other-than-temporary impairment in the fair value of any individual security classified as held-to-maturity, the Company writes down the security to fair value with a corresponding credit loss portion charged to earnings, and the non-credit portion being charged to Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. SPLP's assessment involves a high degree of judgment and accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those estimates and judgments. |
Trade and Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company recognizes bad debt expense through an allowance account using estimates based primarily on management's evaluation of the financial condition of the customer, historical experience, credit quality, whether any amounts are currently past due, the length of time accounts may be past due, previous loss history and management's determination of a customer's current ability to pay its obligations. Trade accounts receivable balances are charged off against the allowance when it is determined that the receivables will not be recovered, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to recovery of accounts written off. The Company believes that the credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to this credit evaluation process. |
Loans Receivable, Including Loans Held for Sale / Loan Impairment and Allowance for Loan Losses | Loans Receivable, Including Loans Held for Sale WebBank's loan activities include several lending arrangements with companies where it originates private label credit card and other loans for consumers and small businesses. These loans are classified as Loans receivable and are typically sold after origination. As part of these arrangements WebBank earns origination fees that are recorded in non-interest income. Fees earned from these lending arrangements are recorded as fee income. WebBank also purchases participations in commercial and industrial loans through loan syndications. Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the estimated life of the loan. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. A valuation allowance is recorded when cost exceeds fair value based on our determination at the time of reclassification and periodically thereafter. Gains and losses are recorded in noninterest income based on the difference between sales proceeds and carrying value and impairments from reductions in carrying value. Loans are reported as past due when either principal or interest is due and unpaid for a period of 30 days or more. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. Loan Impairment and Allowance for Loan Losses A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that WebBank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including schedules interest payments. When a loan has been identified as being impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, when appropriate, the loan's observable fair value or the fair value of the collateral (less any selling costs) if the loan is collateral-dependent. If the measurement of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest, net of deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), an impairment is recognized by creating or adjusting an existing allocation of the allowance for loan losses, or by charging down the loan to its value determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when the uncollectability of a loan or receivable balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis and is based upon a periodic review of the collectability of the amounts due in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as doubtful, substandard, or loss. For such loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience and is adjusted for qualitative factors to cover uncertainties that could affect the estimate of probable losses. The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). The periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on WebBank's past loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the debtor's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories are generally stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method or average cost method) or market (see "New or Recently Adopted Accounting Standards" below for new accounting rules effective January 1, 2017 related to the valuation of inventory). Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method for certain precious metal inventory held in the U.S., and remaining precious metal inventory is primarily carried at fair value. For precious metal inventory, no segregation among raw materials, work in process and finished products is practicable. For other inventory, the cost of work in progress and finished goods comprises the cost of raw materials, direct labor and overhead costs attributable to the production of inventory. Non-precious metal inventories are evaluated for estimated excess and obsolescence based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions, and are adjusted accordingly. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected, future write-downs may be required. |
Goodwill and Other Intangibles, net | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Net Goodwill, which is not amortized, represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. We review goodwill for impairment indicators throughout the year and test for impairment annually in the fourth quarter. An entity can choose between two testing approaches: a. Step 0 or Qualitative approach - An entity may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. In evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, an entity shall assess relevant events and circumstances. Examples of such events and circumstances would include pertinent macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and other factors. An entity has an unconditional option to bypass this qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the goodwill impairment test. An entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. b. Step 1 or Quantitative approach - The fair value of a reporting unit is calculated and compared with its carrying amount. There are several methods that may be used to estimate a reporting unit's fair value, including market quotations, asset and liability fair values and other valuation techniques, including, but not limited to, discounted projected future net earnings or net cash flows and multiples of earnings. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, there is no indication of impairment and further testing is not required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then a second step of testing is required ("Step 2"). The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. For 2016, the Company utilized a qualitative approach for all of its reporting units, except for one reporting unit within its Diversified Industrial segment, to assess its goodwill as of its most recent assessment date. As a result of the assessment, a goodwill impairment of $24,254 was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2016 (see Note 7 - "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Net"). Other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, while other intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable (see "Long-Lived Asset Testing" below). Intangible assets with indefinite lives, which are only within the Diversified Industrial segment, are tested for impairment at least annually, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Companies can use the same two testing approaches for indefinite lived intangibles as for goodwill. For 2016, the Company utilized a qualitative approach to assess its intangible assets with indefinite lives as of its most recent assessment date, and the results indicated no impairment in 2016. |
Derivatives | Derivatives The Company uses various hedging and swap instruments to reduce the impact of changes in precious metal prices, interest costs on variable interest debt and the effect of foreign currency fluctuations. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815, Derivatives and Hedging , these instruments are recorded as either fair value hedges, economic hedges, cash flow hedges or derivatives with no hedging designation. Precious Metals HNH's precious metal and commodity inventories are subject to market price fluctuations. HNH enters into commodity futures and forward contracts to mitigate the impact of price fluctuations on its precious and certain non-precious metal inventories that are not subject to fixed price contracts. Fair Value Hedges . The fair values of these derivatives are recognized as derivative assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The net change in fair value of the derivative assets and liabilities, and the change in the fair value of the underlying hedged inventory, are recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, and such amounts principally offset each other due to the effectiveness of the hedges. The fair value hedges are associated primarily with HNH's precious metal inventory carried at fair value. Economic Hedges . As these derivatives are not designated as accounting hedges under ASC 815, they are accounted for as derivatives with no hedge designation. The derivatives are marked to market, and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in current period earnings in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The economic hedges are associated primarily with the Company's precious metal inventory valued using the LIFO method. Interest Rate Swaps HNH has entered into interest rate swap agreements in the past in order to economically hedge a portion of its debt, which was subject to variable interest rates. As these derivatives were not designated as accounting hedges under U.S. GAAP, they are accounted for as derivatives with no hedge designation. HNH recorded the gains and losses both from the mark-to-market adjustments and net settlements in interest expense in the Company's consolidated statements of operations as the hedges were intended to offset interest rate movements. Foreign Currency Forward Contracts API enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its receivables and payables denominated in other currencies. In addition, API enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the value of its future sales denominated in Euros and the value of its future purchases denominated in USD. These hedges have settlement dates ranging through December 2017. The forward contracts that are used to hedge the risk of foreign exchange movement on its receivables and payables and are accounted for as fair value hedges under ASC 815. The fair values of these derivatives are recognized as derivative assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The net change in fair value of the derivative assets and liabilities are recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The forward contracts that are used to hedge the value of API's future sales and purchases are accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815. These hedges are fully effective and accordingly, the changes in fair value are recorded in AOCI and, at maturity, any gain or loss on the forward contract is reclassified from AOCI into the Company's consolidated statements of operations. |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net / Long-Lived Asset Testing | Property, Plant and Equipment, Net Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recorded principally on the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range is as follows: machinery & equipment 3 to 15 years and buildings and improvements 10 to 30 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the terms of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Interest cost is capitalized for qualifying assets during the assets' acquisition period. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense and renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gain or loss on dispositions is recorded in other income. Long-Lived Asset Testing The Company estimates the depreciable lives of property, plant and equipment, and reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events, or changes in circumstances, indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If the carrying values of the long-lived assets exceed the sum of the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying values exceeds their fair values. The Company performs such assessments at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities, which is generally at the plant level, operating company level or the reporting unit level, dependent on the level of interdependencies in the Company's operations. Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. The Company considers various factors in determining whether an impairment test is necessary, including among other things: a significant or prolonged deterioration in operating results and projected cash flows; significant changes in the extent or manner in which assets are used; technological advances with respect to assets which would potentially render them obsolete; the Company's strategy and capital planning; and the economic climate in the markets it serves. When estimating future cash flows and if necessary, fair value, the Company makes judgments as to the expected utilization of assets and estimated future cash flows related to those assets. The Company considers historical and anticipated future results, general economic and market conditions, the impact of planned business and operational strategies and other information available at the time the estimates are made. The Company believes these estimates are reasonable; however, changes in circumstances or conditions could have a significant impact on its estimates, which might result in material impairment charges in the future. |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations When the Company acquires a business, it allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interests based on their fair values at the acquisition date. Significant judgment may be used to determine these fair values including the use of appraisals, discounted cash flow models, market value for similar purchases, or other methods applicable to the circumstances. The assumptions and judgments made by the Company when recording business combinations will have an impact on reported results of operations in the future. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Diversified Industrial and Energy Segments Revenue in our Diversified Industrial and Energy segments is recognized when the title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, the service has been provided to the customer, the price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. This condition is normally met when product has been shipped or the service performed. An allowance is provided for estimated returns and discounts based on experience. Revenue is reported net of any sales tax collected. Cash received from customers prior to shipment of goods, or otherwise not yet earned, is recorded as deferred revenue. Rental revenues are derived from the rental of certain equipment to the food industry where customers prepay for the rental period - usually 3 to 6 month periods. For prepaid rental contracts, sales revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. Service revenues are generated primarily by Steel Excel's energy and sports businesses and HNH's repair and maintenance work performed on equipment used at mass merchants, supermarkets and restaurants. HNH records all shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenue, and related costs are charged principally to cost of goods sold, when incurred. Our HNH subsidiary has also entered into rebate agreements with certain customers. These programs are typically structured to incentivize the customers to increase their annual purchases from HNH. The rebates are usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase amount, and such percentages may increase as the customer's level of purchases rise. Rebates are recorded as a reduction of net sales in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and are accounted for on an accrual basis. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015 , accrued rebates payable totaled $7,400 and $7,600 , respectively, and are included in Accrued liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Financial Services Segment WebBank generates revenue through a combination of interest income and non-interest income. Interest income is derived from interest and fees earned on loans and investments. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance, including amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the estimated life of the loan. Non-interest income is primarily derived from origination fees earned on loans, fee income on contractual lending arrangements, premiums on the sale of loans, and loan servicing fees. |
Concentration of Revenue | Concentration of Revenue No single customer accounted for 5% or more of the Company's consolidated revenues in 2016 , 2015 or 2014 |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value (see Note 17 - "Fair Value Measurements"). Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair values of assets and liabilities are determined based on a three-level measurement input hierarchy. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are other than quoted market prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for an asset or liability. Level 2 inputs can include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in a market that is not active for identical assets or liabilities, or other inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are based on the best information available, and may include data developed by the Company. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees and non-employee directors as compensation expense, which is recognized in exchange for the services received. The compensation expense is based on the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant-date and is recognized as an expense over the service period of the recipients. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes SPLP and certain of its subsidiaries, as limited partnerships, are generally not responsible for federal and state income taxes and their profits and losses are passed directly to their partners for inclusion in their respective income tax returns. SPLP's subsidiaries that are corporate entities are subject to federal and state income taxes and file corporate income tax returns. SPLP's subsidiaries that are subject to income taxes use the liability method of accounting for such taxes. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Such subsidiaries evaluate the recoverability of deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that most positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is provided for and reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. SPLP's policy is to record estimated interest and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes as income tax expense in its consolidated statements of operations. |
Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation Assets and liabilities of SPLP's foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates and related revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the year. Resulting cumulative translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the reporting entity are included in earnings. |
Legal Contingencies | Legal Contingencies The Company provides for legal contingencies when the liability is probable and the amount of the associated loss is reasonably estimable. The Company regularly monitors the progress of legal contingencies and revises the amounts recorded in the period in which a change in estimate occurs. |
Environmental Liabilities | Environmental Liabilities The Company accrues for losses associated with environmental remediation obligations when such losses are probable and reasonably estimable. Accruals for estimated losses from environmental remediation obligations generally are recognized no later than completion of the remedial feasibility study. Such accruals are adjusted as further information develops or circumstances change. Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation obligations are not discounted to their present value. Recoveries of environmental remediation costs from other parties are recorded as assets when their receipt is deemed probable. |
New or Recently Adopted Accounting Standards | New or Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, and the guidance defines a five step process to achieve this core principle. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. The ASU, as amended, is effective for the Company's 2018 fiscal year and may be applied either (i) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with an election for certain specified practical expedients, or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized at the date of initial application, with additional disclosure requirements. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of this guidance and the transition alternatives on its consolidated financial statements and, therefore, cannot reasonably estimate the impact that adoption will have on its financial condition, results of operations or its cash flows. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The amendments do not apply to inventory that is measured using the LIFO cost method. On January 1, 2017, the Company began applying the inventory measurement provisions of the new ASU and such provisions did not have and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments , which eliminates the requirement to restate prior-period financial statements for measurement-period adjustments following a business combination. The new guidance requires that the cumulative impact of a measurement-period adjustment (including the impact on prior periods) be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustment is identified. The prior-period impact of the adjustment should either be presented separately on the face of the statement of operations or disclosed in the notes. This new guidance was effective for the Company's 2016 fiscal year. The amendments in this ASU will be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this ASU. The adoption of ASU No. 2015-16 did not have any impact on the Company's 2016 financial statements. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10) , which eliminates the requirement to classify equity securities with readily determinable market values as either available-for-sale securities and trading securities, and requires that equity investments, other than those accounted for under the traditional equity method of accounting, be measured at their fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Equity investments that do not have readily determinable market values may be measured at cost, subject to an assessment for impairment. ASU No. 2016-01 also requires enhanced disclosures about such equity investments. ASU No. 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption prohibited. Upon adoption, a reporting entity should apply the provisions of ASU No. 2016-01 by means of a cumulative effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company is evaluating the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements of adopting ASU No. 2016-01. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-2, Leases (Topic 842) . The new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability, measured on a discounted basis, on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statements of operations. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for capital and operating leases existing at the date of adoption, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance, which is effective for the Company's 2019 fiscal year. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This new standard simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification in the statements of cash flows, among other things. The new standard is effective for the Company's 2017 fiscal year and the Company has adopted its provisions as of January 1, 2017. The impacts of certain amendments in ASU 2016-09, such as those related to the treatment of tax windfalls from stock-based compensation that are included in net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") and elections made for accounting for forfeitures, are required to be adopted on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to partners' capital. Upon adoption, on January 1, 2017, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of approximately $4,600 and a corresponding valuation allowance resulting in no net impact on Partners' capital. In addition, the Company elected to continue to estimate forfeitures under its current policy therefore there was no modified retrospective adjustment required for accounting for forfeitures upon adoption. The other provisions of ASU 2016-09, such as classification of certain items in the statements of cash flows, will be applied in 2017, with reclassification of prior period amounts where applicable. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The new standard changes the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade receivables, from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model and adds certain new required disclosures. Under the expected loss model, entities will recognize estimated credit losses to be incurred over the entire contractual term of the instrument rather than delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable the loss has been incurred. The new standard is effective for the Company's 2020 fiscal year with early adoption permitted for all entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This new standard provides guidance to help decrease diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statements of cash flows. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-15 provide guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. The new standard is effective for the Company's 2018 fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 320): Restricted Cash. This new standard provides guidance on the classification of restricted cash in the statements of cash flows. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-18 are effective for the Company's 2018 fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This new standard provides guidance to help determine more clearly what is a business acquisition, as opposed to an asset acquisition. The amendments provide a screen to help determine when a set of components is a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be evaluated. The new standard states that to classify the acquisition of assets as a business, there must be an input and a substantive process that jointly contribute to the ability to create outputs, with outputs being defined as the key elements of the business. If all of the fair value of the assets acquired are concentrated in a single asset group, this would not qualify as a business. The amendments in ASU No. 2017-01 are effective for the Company's 2018 fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . This new standard simplifies subsequent measurements of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, entities will perform their interim or annual goodwill impairment testing by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognize an impairment charge based on the amount that the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. The loss recognized should not exceed the total goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The amendments in ASU No. 2017-04 are effective for the Company's 2020 fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this new guidance. |

Schedule of Allocation of Plan Assets | The fair value of pension investments is defined by reference to one of three categories (Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3) based on the reliability of inputs, as such terms are defined in Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." HNH's pension plans assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015 , by asset category, are as follows: Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2016: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2016 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Equity securities: U.S. mid-cap blend $ 22,560 $ — $ — $ 22,560 U.S. large-cap 34,256 — — 34,256 Convertible promissory notes — — 3,500 3,500 Stock warrants — — 875 875 Subtotal $ 56,816 $ — $ 4,375 61,191 Pension assets measured at net asset value (1) Hedge funds: (2) Equity long/short 6,832 Event driven 47,771 Value driven 17,648 Funds of funds - long-term capital growth (3) 8,325 Common trust funds: (2) Other 78 Insurance separate account (4) 14,391 Total pension assets measured at net asset value 95,045 Cash and cash equivalents 175,435 Net receivables 201 Total pension assets $ 331,872 Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2015: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2015 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Fixed income security: Credit contract $ — $ 3,100 $ — $ 3,100 Subtotal $ — $ 3,100 $ — 3,100 Pension assets measured at net asset value (1) Hedge funds: (2) Equity long/short 2,706 Event driven 45,660 Funds of funds - international large cap growth (5) 4,531 Common trust funds: (2) Large-cap equity 35,081 Mid-cap equity 9,040 Small-cap equity 5,158 International equity 4,664 Intermediate bond fund 6,492 Other 662 Insurance separate account (4) 15,013 Total pension assets measured at net asset value 129,007 Cash and cash equivalents 166,503 Net receivables 49,311 Total pension assets $ 347,921 (1) Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. (2) Hedge funds and common trust funds are comprised of shares or units in commingled funds that may not be publicly traded. The underlying assets in these funds are primarily publicly traded equity securities and fixed income securities. (3) The limited partnership operates as a fund of funds. The underlying assets in this fund are generally expected to be illiquid. The limited partnership's investment strategy is to seek above-average rates of return and long-term capital growth by investing in a broad range of investments, including, but not limited to, global distressed corporate securities, activist equities, value equities, post-reorganizational equities, municipal bonds, high yield bonds, leveraged loans, unsecured debt, collateralized debt obligations, mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, direct lending and sovereign debt. (4) The JPS Pension Plan holds a deposit administration group annuity contract with an immediate participation guarantee from Transamerica Life Insurance Company ("TFLIC"). The TFLIC contract unconditionally guarantees benefits to certain salaried JPS Pension Plan participants earned through June 30, 1984 in the plan of a predecessor employer. The assets deposited under the contract are held in a separate custodial account ("TFLIC Assets"). If the TFLIC Assets decrease to the level of the trigger point (as defined in the contract), which represents the guaranteed benefit obligation representing the accumulated plan benefits as of June 30, 1984, TFLIC has the right to cause annuities to be purchased for the individuals covered by these contract agreements. Since the TFLIC Assets have remained in excess of the trigger point, no annuities have been purchased for the individuals covered by these contract arrangements. (5) Fund of funds consist of fund-of-fund LLC or commingled fund structures. The underlying assets in these funds are primarily publicly traded equity securities, fixed income securities and commodity-related securities. The LLCs are valued based on net asset values calculated by the fund and are not publicly available. API's pension plans' assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015 by asset category, are as follows: Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2016: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2016 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Equities $ 55,889 $ — $ — $ 55,889 Bonds — 12,805 — 12,805 Property — 15,087 — 15,087 Liability-driven instrument (1) — 27,016 — 27,016 Hedge funds (2) — 7,460 — 7,460 Cash and cash equivalents 70 — — 70 Total pension assets $ 55,959 $ 62,368 $ — $ 118,327 Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2015: Assets at Fair Value as of December 31, 2015 Asset Class Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Equities $ 62,549 $ — $ — $ 62,549 Bonds — 29,661 — 29,661 Index-linked government bonds — 8,721 — 8,721 Property — 12,795 — 12,795 Hedge funds (2) — 15,035 — 15,035 Cash and cash equivalents 474 — — 474 Total pension assets $ 63,023 $ 66,212 $ — $ 129,235 (1) Represents investments in pooled funds. This is a method of investing whereby a portfolio of assets is built with the objective of moving in-line with liabilities. The assets are typically derivative instruments based on government bonds or instruments called swaps which are exposed to the same liability sensitivities (interest rates and inflation) as the pension liabilities. (2) Hedge Funds are pooled investment vehicles that may invest in a wide-range of underlying asset classes, including but not limited to equities and various fixed-income securities as well as alternative investments. These funds have an objective to produce positive returns in all market conditions. Hedge Funds will typically make extensive use of derivatives and may employ leverage to achieve their objective . |
