INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the Board of Directors

Erickson Oil Products, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Hudson, Wisconsin

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Erickson Oil Products, Inc. and Subsidiaries which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2014 and 2013 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Erickson Oil Products, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

ERICKSON OIL PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For The Years Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Erickson Oil Products, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) operates 66 retail gas station/convenience stores and 1 liquor store in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan and South Dakota. Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the time of sale. The Company grants credit to individuals through credit card arrangements in each of these trade areas.

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Estimates

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

Principles of Consolidation

At September 30, 2014 and 2013, the consolidated financial statements included the accounts of Erickson Oil Products, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Freedom Valu Centers, Inc., Erickson Transport Corporation of Wisconsin, and Village Wine & Spirits, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash Balances

Throughout the year the Company may have cash balances in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses as a result of such excess accumulations and believes it is not exposed to any significant cash credit risk.

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments, commodity future contracts and options purchased with original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of petroleum products and merchandise sold in the convenience stores. The Company uses the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of determining inventory cost, which is not in excess of market. If valued under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, inventories would have been approximately $4,821,300 and $4,880,400 higher than those reported by the Company as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.


Table of Contents

Depreciation

Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment using principally the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives range from 8 to 20 years for building and rental properties and from 3 to 10 years for equipment and fixtures.

Goodwill

The Company follows FASB’s authoritative guidance, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, which states that goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives will not be subject to amortization, but rather will be tested at least annually for impairment. In addition, it provides specific guidance on how to determine and measure goodwill impairment. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has evaluated the realizability of its goodwill, and based upon this analysis, the Company believes that no material impairment exists.

Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and separate state income tax returns.

Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carry forwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The Company follows the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) interpretation on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements in accordance with ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes.” The interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statement uncertain tax positions that the company expects to take on its tax returns. The Company has analyzed its filing positions with the Internal Revenue Service and all state tax jurisdictions where it files tax returns. The Company believes its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Pursuant to the FASB authoritative guidance regarding accounting for uncertainty in income tax, no liability has been recorded for uncertain tax positions. As allowed under this guidance, the Company would accrue if applicable income tax related interest and penalties in income tax expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010. The Company is currently under examination by the internal revenue service for the year ended September 30, 2013.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The consolidated financial statements include the following financial instruments and methods and assumptions used in estimating their fair values: for cash and cash equivalents, the carrying amount is fair value, and for trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and revolving credit agreements, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to either the short-term nature of these instruments or the variable nature of the interest rates. Management believes the carrying amounts of fixed-rate notes receivable and long-term debt approximate their fair values because the fixed rates are based on current rates offered to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities or on current rates of return on similar investments.


Table of Contents

The Company follows the provisions of FASB’s authoritative guidance regarding Fair Value Measurements. This guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a fair value hierarchy categorized into three levels based on the inputs used. Generally, the three levels are as follows:

 

    Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

 

    Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs.

 

    Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs.

The Company does not have any significant fair value measurements on a recurring or non recurring basis as of September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Asset Retirement Obligation

In connection with the Company’s underground fuel storage tanks, the Company is required to record a liability for the fair value of an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation (or future obligation) associated with the removal of underground storage tanks. A corresponding asset, which is depreciated over the life of the underground storage tank is also recorded. Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation.

The estimated liability is based on historical experience in removing these tanks, estimated tank useful lives, external estimates as to the cost to remove the tanks in the future, and federal and state regulatory requirements. The liability has been discounted using a rate of approximately 7.5 percent. Revisions to the liability could occur due to changes in tank removal costs or tank useful lives, or if federal or state regulators enact new requirements on the removal of such tanks.

A reconciliation of the Company’s liability for the removal of its underground gasoline storage tanks for the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

 

     2014      2013  

Balance, beginning

   $ 226,000      $ 210,200  

Accretion expense

     11,300        15,800  
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Balance, ending

$ 237,300   $ 226,000  
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Accounting for Long-lived Assets

The Company periodically reviews its property and equipment, rental properties, and land held for sale to determine potential impairment by comparing the carrying value of the assets with estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets, including cash flows from disposition. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value, the Company would record an impairment loss, which would be measured by comparing the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value would be determined based on estimated future discounted cash flows or appraised market value. To date, management has determined that no impairment of assets exists.

Note 8 Deferred Compensation

The Company has adopted an unfunded long-term executive benefit plan for certain key employees.

Note 9 Prior Period Adjustment

During the year ended September 30, 2014, an error was discovered in which the Company did not have proper title over certain inventory. The removal of inventory resulted in the liquidation of a LIFO layer. The effect of this error understated inventory by $2,808,400, income taxes payable by $1,123,400, retained earnings by $1,685,000 and overstated net income by $262,000, net of income tax of $174,600 in 2013. This error was corrected by increasing retained earnings by $1,947,000, net of income tax of $1,123,400, as of October 1, 2012. The following amounts were restated for 2013: inventory increased $2,808,400, income taxes payable increased by $1,123,400, retained earnings increased $1,685,000 and net income decreased $262,000.

Note 10 Subsequent Events

ERICKSON OIL PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For The Three Months Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Erickson Oil Products, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) operates 66 retail gas station/convenience stores and 1 liquor store in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan and South Dakota. Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the time of sale. The Company grants credit to individuals through credit card arrangements in each of these trade areas.

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Estimates

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

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements included the accounts of Erickson Oil Products, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Freedom Valu Centers, Inc., Erickson Transport Corporation of Wisconsin, and Village Wine & Spirits, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) on the same basis as the corresponding audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2014, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2014, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2015, or any other future periods. The balance sheet as of September 30, 2014, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2014. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the corresponding audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended September 30, 2014.

The Company had outstanding notes receivable from related parties totaling $6,950,300 and $6,738,000 as of December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014, respectively.

Exhibit 99.3

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information of CrossAmerica Partners LP

Effective February 12, 2015, CrossAmerica Partners LP (“the Partnership”) completed its acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Erickson Oil Products, Inc. (“Erickson”) and certain related assets from GST Non-Exempt Family Trust Created Under the David B. Erickson Revocable Trust UAD May 12, 2010 and GST Exempt Family Trust Created Under the David B. Erickson Revocable Trust UAD May 12, 2010, and certain real estate from Team Investments, LLC, that exclude properties that are Excluded Assets as defined therein in the Stock Purchase Agreement. In addition, as a condition precedent, certain liabilities were required to be repaid upon closing. The purchase price was $85 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments and indemnification and environmental remediation escrows, and was funded by borrowings under the Partnership’s Credit Facility.

Erickson operates 64 convenience store sites located in Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin and South Dakota, with a concentration in the Minneapolis / St. Paul region, of which 59 are owned in fee simple and five are leased under long term leases.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2014 gives effect to the Erickson acquisition as if it had been consummated on December 31, 2014, and includes historical data as reported by the separate companies as well as adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the Erickson acquisition, adjusted for the impact of the Excluded Assets and the repayment of certain liabilities. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 gives effect to the Erickson acquisition, as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2014, and includes historical data as reported by the separate companies as well as adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the Erickson acquisition, adjusted for the impact of the Excluded Assets and the repayment of certain liabilities, and that are expected to have a continuing impact, and that are factually supportable. As permitted under existing guidance in Regulation S-X, the “Historical Erickson Oil Products, Inc.” column included in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations are as of, and for the year ended September 30, 2014, respectively, which is within 93 days of the Partnership’s year end of December 31, 2014. Certain line items of the Erickson historical consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the Partnership’s presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net (loss) income after income taxes or Partners’ capital/Stockholders’ equity.

The pro forma adjustments included within the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information of the Partnership reflecting the consummation of the Erickson acquisition, adjusted for the Excluded Assets and repayment of certain liabilities, are based upon the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations” and upon the assumptions set forth in the notes included in this section. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information has been prepared based on available information, using estimates and assumptions that management believes are reasonable. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are preliminary and have been made solely for purposes of developing this Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been adjusted to reflect the allocation of the purchase price to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the excess purchase price has been allocated to goodwill.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information is for informational purposes and does not purport to represent the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had taken place on the date specified. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved in the future. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information does not reflect any adjustments for the effect of non-recurring items or operating synergies that we may realize as a result of the acquisition. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information includes certain reclassifications to conform the historical consolidated financial information of Erickson to our presentation.


The assumptions used and adjustments made in preparing the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information are described in the Notes thereto, which should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information and related Notes contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K on February 27, 2015.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANICAL INFORMATION

Note 1. Notes to Pro Forma Financial Information

 

(a) Represents the historical consolidated balances of Erickson derived from historical financial statements as reclassified to conform to the Partnership’s presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net (loss) income after income taxes or equity.
(b) Represents the historical book carrying value of the assets and liabilities excluded from the acquisition. Such estimates are preliminary, are subject to change and such change could be material.
(c) Adjustment of $4.8 million to reflect the change in methodology for valuing inventory from LIFO to FIFO and an adjustment of $0.7 million to step-up inventories to estimated fair value, which is determined as the selling price less cost to sell and normal profit margin based on management’s preliminary estimates. These adjustments for the change in methodology and estimated step-up were charged to cost of goods sold in the first quarter after the close as the acquired inventories have been sold. These management estimates are subject to change and such change could be material.
(d) The pro forma balance sheet includes management’s preliminary fair value adjustment relating to property and equipment based on management’s current knowledge of Erickson and other industry knowledge. Since the appraisal process for these assets is not yet complete, the portion of the purchase price ultimately allocated to property and equipment may be different and such difference may be material.
(e) Represents the adjustment to record the fair value of intangible assets based on management’s preliminary estimates.
(f) Remaining purchase price that has not been allocated reflects unidentifiable intangible assets acquired, or goodwill. This purchase price allocation is preliminary. The final determination of the purchase price allocation will be based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the closing. The purchase price allocation will remain preliminary until management determines these fair values. The final amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed could differ materially from the preliminary amounts presented herein.
(g) Represents a cash deposit used to fund the purchase price and certain non-recurring acquisition costs.
(h) Represents borrowings used to fund the purchase price and certain non-recurring acquisition costs.
(i) Primarily represents the recognition of a net deferred tax liability associated with the preliminary book-tax basis difference of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the acquisition.
(j) Represents the adjustment to record the fair value of above market leases based on management’s preliminary estimates.
(k) Represents the elimination of Erickson’s historical equity and the payment of certain acquisition costs.
(l) Represents the results of operations of the assets and liabilities excluded from the acquisition.
(m) Represents an adjustment to inventory cost as a result of the change in methodology for valuing inventory from LIFO to FIFO.
(n) Represents the estimated incremental depreciation and amortization of the step-up in value of property and equipment and intangible assets based on management’s current knowledge of Erickson, their customers and industry knowledge. Management expects that these estimates may change as more in-depth valuation analysis is completed, and such changes may be material.
(o) Represents the estimated incremental interest expense based on $83.0 million of borrowings under our credit facility, at an assumed rate of 2.68%. A 1.25% change in the rate would impact incremental interest expense by $1.0 million.
(p) Reflects the estimated income tax effects of the total pro forma adjustments described above using an assumed pro forma blended rate of approximately 39%.
