Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivatives | Derivatives Commodity Derivatives We utilize crude oil commodity derivative contracts to manage our price exposure in our inventory positions, future purchases of crude oil, future sales of refined products, and crude oil consumption in our refining process. The derivative contracts that we execute to manage our price risk include exchange traded futures, options, and over-the-counter (“OTC”) swaps. Our futures, options, and OTC swaps are marked-to-market and changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized within Cost of revenues (excluding depreciation) on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We are obligated to repurchase the crude oil and refined products from J. Aron at the termination of the Supply and Offtake Agreements. We have determined that this obligation contains an embedded derivative, similar to forward purchase contracts of crude oil and refined products. As such, we have accounted for this embedded derivative at fair value with changes in the fair value recorded in Cost of revenues (excluding depreciation) on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We are required under the Supply and Offtake Agreements to hedge the time spread between the period of crude oil cargo pricing and the month of delivery. We utilize OTC swaps to accomplish this. We have entered into forward purchase contracts for crude oil and forward sales contracts of refined products. We elect the normal purchases normal sales (“NPNS”) exception for all forward contracts that meet the definition of a derivative and are not expected to net settle. Any gains and losses with respect to these forward contracts designated as NPNS are not reflected in earnings until the delivery occurs. We elect to offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement. Our condensed consolidated balance sheets present derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis. Please read Note 11—Fair Value Measurements for the gross fair value and net carrying value of our derivative instruments. Our cash margin that is required as collateral deposits cannot be offset against the fair value of open contracts except in the event of default. At March 31, 2018, our open commodity derivative contracts represented:
• | OTC swap purchases of 210 thousand barrels that economically hedge our crude oil and refined products month-end target volumes related to our Supply and Offtake Agreements;
• | futures and OTC swap contracts of 30 thousand barrels that economically hedge our purchases of ethanol;
• | futures purchases contracts of 305 thousand barrels that economically hedge our sales of refined products; and
• | option collars of 60 thousand barrels per month and OTC swaps of 15 thousand barrels per month, both through December 2018, that economically hedge our internally consumed fuel.
Interest Rate Derivatives We are exposed to interest rate volatility in our outstanding debt and in the Supply and Offtake Agreements. We utilize interest rate swaps to manage our interest rate risk. As of March 31, 2018, we had locked in an average fixed rate of 0.97% in exchange for a floating interest rate indexed to the three-month LIBOR on an aggregate notional amount of $100 million. The interest rate swaps mature in February 2019. In February 2018, we terminated a separate $100 million floating interest rate swap originally maturing in March 2021, which resulted in a realized gain of $3.7 million. Our 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes include a redemption option and a related make-whole premium which represent an embedded derivative that is not clearly and closely related to the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes. As such, we have accounted for this embedded derivative at fair value with changes in the fair value recorded in Interest expense and financing costs, net, on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2018, this embedded derivative was deemed to have a de minimis fair value. The following table provides information on the fair value amounts (in thousands) of these derivatives as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and their placement within our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
