Global Partners Reports Third-Quarter 2020 Financial Results
WALTHAM, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Global Partners LP (NYSE: GLP) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
“Global continues to perform well despite near-term uncertainties associated with COVID-19,” said Eric Slifka, the Partnership’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our vertically integrated portfolio of supply, terminaling storage and retail assets are part of the basic infrastructure necessary to power everyday life and the movement of goods, services and people across all of the markets we serve.
“While the pandemic in the short-term has reduced fuel and in-store demand, our strong network and adaptability enables us to continue executing on our strategy while remaining focused on taking advantage of opportunities in the market to grow our business organically and through acquisitions. Throughout our network we are taking steps to increase our flexibility to move renewable fuels and diversify our offerings to serve increasing demand for those products,” said Slifka.
Financial Highlights
Net income attributable to the Partnership was $18.2 million, or $0.47 per diluted common limited partner unit, for the third quarter of 2020 compared with net income attributable to the Partnership of $15.1 million, or $0.38 per diluted common limited partner unit, for the same period of 2019.
Net income attributable to the Partnership, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and DCF in the third quarter of 2019 included a $13.1 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt related to the Partnership’s July 2019 repurchase of its 6.25% senior notes.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) was $65.0 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $65.1 million in the comparable period of 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA was $65.9 million in the third quarter of 2020 versus $66.1 million in the year-earlier period.
Distributable cash flow (DCF) was $31.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $30.4 million in the same period of 2019.
Gross profit in the third quarter of 2020 was $169.2 million compared with $187.8 million in the third quarter of 2019, due to lower product margins in all three segments. Combined product margin, which is gross profit adjusted for depreciation allocated to cost of sales, was $189.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $210.2 million in the third quarter of 2019.
Combined product margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and DCF are non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures, which are explained in greater detail below under “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Please refer to Financial Reconciliations included in this news release for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.
GDSO segment product margin was $158.9 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $168.7 million in the same period of 2019. This result primarily reflected lower fuel volume and reduced convenience store activity due to COVID-19, partly offset by higher fuel margins.
Wholesale segment product margin was $27.6 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $34.2 million in the same period of 2019. This result primarily reflected less favorable market conditions in gasoline and gasoline blendstocks and other oils and related products.
Commercial segment product margin was $2.8 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $7.2 million in the third quarter of 2019, primarily reflecting a decrease in bunkering activity.
Sales were $2.0 billion in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $3.2 billion in the third quarter of 2019, due to decreases in prices and volume. Wholesale segment sales were $1.1 billion in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $1.8 billion in the third quarter of 2019. GDSO segment sales were $0.8 billion in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $1.1 billion in the third quarter of 2019. Commercial segment sales were $181.9 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared with $313.8 million in the third quarter of 2019.
Volume in the third quarter of 2020 was 1.4 billion gallons compared with 1.6 billion gallons in the same period of 2019. Wholesale segment volume was 837.8 million gallons in the third quarter of 2020 compared with 995.6 million gallons in the same period of 2019. GDSO volume was 376.3 million gallons in the third quarter of 2020 compared with 423.3 million gallons in the third quarter of 2019. Commercial segment volume was 139.9 million gallons in the third quarter of 2020 compared with 171.5 million gallons in the third quarter of 2019.
Recent Developments
- Global announced a quarterly cash distribution of $0.50 per unit, or $2.00 per unit on an annualized basis, on all of its outstanding common units for the period from July 1 to September 30, 2020. The distribution will be paid November 13, 2020 to unitholders of record as of the close of business on November 9, 2020.
- Robert W. Owens, retired President and Chief Executive Officer of Sunoco LP, was elected to serve as a member of the Board of Directors of the Partnership’s general partner, Global GP LLC, effective October 1, 2020. He brings a deep history of entrepreneurialism, innovation and success in leading and growing energy sector businesses.
- Global completed the sale of its previously announced private offering of $350 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior unsecured notes due 2029. Global used the net proceeds from the offering to fund the redemption of its 7.00% senior notes due 2023 and to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under its credit agreement.
Business Outlook
“Our 2020 performance remains largely dependent on the extent and duration of COVID-19,” Slifka said. “While we continue to see our integrated business model and diversified product portfolio as long-term strategic assets for the Partnership, ongoing uncertainty about the economic effects of COVID-19 continues to limit near-term visibility.”
Any COVID-19 related events or conditions, or other unforeseen consequences of COVID-19 could significantly adversely affect our business and financial condition and the business and financial condition of our customers, suppliers and counterparties. The ultimate extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition and results of operations depends in large part on future developments which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. That uncertainty includes the duration (including its potential return) of the COVID-19 pandemic, the geographic regions so impacted, the extent of said impact within specific boundaries of those areas and, lastly, the impact to the local, state and national economies.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Product Margin
Global Partners views product margin as an important performance measure of the core profitability of its operations. The Partnership reviews product margin monthly for consistency and trend analysis. Global Partners defines product margin as product sales minus product costs. Product sales primarily include sales of unbranded and branded gasoline, distillates, residual oil, renewable fuels, crude oil and propane, as well as convenience store sales, gasoline station rental income and revenue generated from logistics activities when the Partnership engages in the storage, transloading and shipment of products owned by others. Product costs include the cost of acquiring products and all associated costs including shipping and handling costs to bring such products to the point of sale as well as product costs related to convenience store items and costs associated with logistics activities. The Partnership also looks at product margin on a per unit basis (product margin divided by volume). Product margin is a non‑GAAP financial measure used by management and external users of the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements to assess its business. Product margin should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flow from operations, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, product margin may not be comparable to product margin or a similarly titled measure of other companies.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures used as supplemental financial measures by management and may be used by external users of Global Partners’ consolidated financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to assess the Partnership’s:
- compliance with certain financial covenants included in its debt agreements;
- financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or historical cost basis;
- ability to generate cash sufficient to pay interest on its indebtedness and to make distributions to its partners;
- operating performance and return on invested capital as compared to those of other companies in the wholesale, marketing, storing and distribution of refined petroleum products, gasoline blendstocks, renewable fuels, crude oil and propane, and in the gasoline stations and convenience stores business, without regard to financing methods and capital structure; and
- viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return of alternative investment opportunities.
Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA further adjusted for gains or losses on the sale and disposition of assets and goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income, and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Distributable Cash Flow
Distributable cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for the Partnership’s limited partners since it serves as an indicator of success in providing a cash return on their investment. Distributable cash flow as defined by the Partnership’s partnership agreement is net income plus depreciation and amortization minus maintenance capital expenditures, as well as adjustments to eliminate items approved by the audit committee of the board of directors of the Partnership’s general partner that are extraordinary or non-recurring in nature and that would otherwise increase distributable cash flow.
Distributable cash flow as used in our partnership agreement also determines our ability to make cash distributions on our incentive distribution rights. The investment community also uses a distributable cash flow metric similar to the metric used in our partnership agreement with respect to publicly traded partnerships to indicate whether or not such partnerships have generated sufficient earnings on a current or historic level that can sustain distributions on preferred or common units or support an increase in quarterly cash distributions on common units. Our partnership agreement does not permit adjustments for certain non-cash items, such as net losses on the sale and disposition of assets and goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges.
Distributable cash flow should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flow from operations, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, distributable cash flow may not be comparable to distributable cash flow or similarly titled measures of other companies.

(1) Under the Partnership’s partnership agreement, for any quarterly period, the incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) participate in net income only to the extent of the amount of cash distributions actually declared, thereby excluding the IDRs from participating in the Partnership’s undistributed net income or losses. Accordingly, the Partnership’s undistributed net income or losses is assumed to be allocated to the common unitholders and to the General Partner’s general partner interest. Net income attributable to common limited partners is divided by the weighted average common units outstanding in computing the net income per limited partner unit. |
