1.Acquisitions and Significant Accounting Policies

Acquisitions

On September 1, 2015, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Pester Marketing Company (“Pester”), a leading distributor, transporter, and blender of branded motor fuels and lubricants to wholesale, industrial, commercial and agricultural customers. Pester is headquartered in Denver, Colorado and is also a leading operator of retail convenience stores in the Rocky Mountain region.

In addition to the above acquisition, in September 2015, we completed an acquisition in our aviation segment which was not significant.

The estimated aggregate purchase price for the 2015 acquisitions was $80.1 million, and is subject to change based on the final value of the net assets acquired. The following reconciles the estimated aggregate purchase price for the 2015 acquisitions to the cash paid for the acquisitions, net of cash acquired (in millions):

Estimated purchase price |  | $ | 80.1
Less: Cash acquired |  |  | 1.2
Estimated purchase price, net of cash acquired |  |  | 78.9
Less: Amounts due to sellers |  |  | 0.9
Cash paid for acquisition of businesses |  | $ | 78.0

The estimated purchase price of the 2015 acquisitions was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value as of the acquisition date. Since the valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the 2015 acquisitions have not been finalized, the allocation of the purchase price of these acquisitions may change. The estimated purchase price allocation for the 2015 acquisitions is as follows (in millions):

Assets acquired: |  |  |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 1.2
Accounts receivable |  |  | 5.8
Inventories |  |  | 7.4
Property and equipment |  |  | 39.7
Identifiable intangible assets |  |  | 16.6
Goodwill |  |  | 25.4
Other current and long-term assets |  |  | 5.1
Liabilities assumed: |  |  |
Short-term debt |  |  | (0.5)
Accounts payable |  |  | (9.9)
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities |  |  | (3.9)
Non-current income tax liabilities and other long term liabilities |  |  | (6.8)
Estimated purchase price |  | $ | 80.1

In connection with the 2015 acquisitions, we recorded goodwill of $25.4 million of which $2.7 million is anticipated to be deductible for tax purposes. The identifiable intangible assets consisted of $11.3 million of customer relationships and $4.4 million of other identifiable intangible assets with weighted average lives of 10 years and 9.4 years, respectively, as well as $0.9 million of indefinite-lived trademark/trade name rights.

The financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the 2015 acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates and did not have a significant impact on our revenue and net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

2014 Acquisitions

On July 29, 2014, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Colt International, L.L.C. (“Colt”) a leading provider of contract fuel and international trip planning services in the general aviation marketplace. Colt is headquartered in Houston, Texas and offers services at more than 3,000 locations.

On March 7, 2014, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Watson Petroleum Limited (now known as WFL (UK) Limited) (“Watson Petroleum”) a leading distributor of gasoline, diesel, heating oil, lubricants and other products and related services. Watson Petroleum is headquartered in Brinkworth, England and is one of the largest fuel distributors in the United Kingdom.

In addition to the above acquisitions, in June 2014, we completed an acquisition in our aviation segment which was not significant.

Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies we use for quarterly financial reporting are the same as those disclosed in Note 1 of the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our 2014 10‑K Report.

Goodwill

During the first nine months of 2015, we increased land segment goodwill by $1.0 million as a result of a reduction in identifiable intangible assets and an increase in property and equipment and reduced aviation segment goodwill by $3.8 million as a result of an increase in identifiable intangible assets, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, non-current income tax liabilities, net and a reduction in purchase price based on our ongoing fair value assessment of certain of our 2014 acquisitions. Additionally, we had goodwill decreases of $3.6 million, $1.9 million and $1.7 million as a result of foreign currency translation adjustments of our non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries in our land, aviation and marine segments, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Business Combinations: Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement – Period Adjustments. In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), to simplify the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination; the amendments eliminate the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments. The ASU will require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. It also requires that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year. We are currently evaluating whether the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. In July 2015, the FASB issued an ASU which simplifies the guidance on the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory within the scope of this update to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value rather than the lower of cost or market. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2017 fiscal year. We are currently evaluating whether the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Interest—Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. In April 2015, the FASB issued an ASU which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year. We do not believe the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. In February 2015, the FASB issued an ASU which is intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year. We do not believe the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items: Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. In January 2015, the FASB issued an ASU which eliminates from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States the concept of extraordinary items. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year. We do not believe the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Derivatives and Hedging: Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity. In November 2014, the FASB issued an ASU which clarifies how current generally accepted accounting principles in the United States should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year. We do not believe the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. In August 2014, the FASB issued an ASU which requires management of the Company to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2017 fiscal year. We do not believe the adoption of this new guidance will have an impact on our financial statement disclosures.

Compensation-Stock Compensation. Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. In June 2014, the FASB issued an ASU which includes guidance that requires a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period to be treated as a performance condition. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2016 fiscal year. We do not believe the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Transfers and Servicing: Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. In June 2014, the FASB issued an ASU which changes the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase financing arrangements. It also requires additional disclosures about repurchase agreements and other similar transactions. This update became effective at the beginning of our 2015 fiscal year. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued an ASU which provides guidance for revenue recognition for any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of non-financial assets. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in generally accepted accounting principles in the United States when it becomes effective. This update is effective at the beginning of our 2018 fiscal year. We are currently evaluating whether the adoption of this new guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. In April 2014, the FASB issued an ASU which changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhances disclosures in this area. It also addresses sources of confusion and inconsistent application related to financial reporting of discontinued operations guidance. This update became effective at the beginning of our 2015 fiscal year. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

2.Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value based on the short-term maturities of these instruments. Fair value for our debt and notes receivable is derived using a discounted cash flow valuation methodology. The carrying values of these instruments approximate fair value since these instruments bear interest either at variable rates or fixed rates which are not significantly different than market rates. Based on the fair value hierarchy, our debt of $884.4 million and $689.9 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 201 4, respectively, and our notes receivable of $6.4 million and $7.0 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 201 4, respectively, are categorized in Level 3.

The following table presents information about our financial assets and liabilities that are measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

The cash surrender value of life insurance is in connection with the non-qualified deferred compensation plan and was included in identifiable intangible and other non-current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements. In connection with the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Pester, we committed to a plan to sell certain assets and liabilities of Pester’s fuel retail business. The fair value of the assets and liabilities held for sale were measured using a discounted cash flow valuation methodology. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, the long-lived assets held for sale were recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the acquisition date. The carrying amounts of the current assets and liabilities held for sale approximate fair value based on the short-term maturities of these instruments. Based on the fair value hierarchy, as of September 30, 2015, the fair value of the asset disposal group (excluding inventories) of $34.1 million and the liability disposal group of $5.7 million were categorized as Level 3, as significant unobservable inputs were used in the valuation of such assets and liabilities. The inventories of $4.3 million as of September 30, 2015 were categorized as Level 2 as they were valued based on the price to retailers in a wholesale market.

For our derivative contracts, we may enter into master netting, collateral and offset agreements with counterparties. These agreements provide us the ability to offset a counterparty’s rights and obligations, request additional collateral when necessary or liquidate the collateral in the event of counterparty default. We net fair value of cash collateral paid or received against fair value amounts recognized for net derivative positions executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting or offset agreement.

As of September 30, 2015, we had $20 8.1 million of cash collateral deposits held by financial counterparties, of which $154.8 million have been offset against the total amount of commodity fair value liabilities in the above table and the remaining $5 3.3 million is included in other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In addition, as of September 30, 2015, we have offset $20.0 million of cash collateral deposits received from customers against the total amount of commodity fair value assets in the above table. As of December 31, 2014, we had $301.0 million of cash collateral deposits held by financial counterparties, of which $274.3 million have been offset against the total amount of commodity fair value liabilities in the above table and the remaining $26.7 million is included in other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In addition, as of December 31, 2014, we have offset $46.7 million of cash collateral deposits received from customers against the total amount of commodity fair value assets in the above table.

The nature of inputs that are considered Level 3 are modeled inputs. Commodity contracts are categorized in Level 3due to the significance of the unobservable model inputs to their respective fair values. The unobservable model inputs, such as basis differentials, are based on the difference between the historical prices of our prior transactions and the underlying observable data as well as certain risk related to non-performance. The effect on our income before income taxes of a 10% change in the model input for non-performance risk would not be significant. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the periods presented. Transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 were due to the increased significance of basis adjustments which are Level 3 measurements.

3.Derivatives

We enter into financial derivative contracts in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in aviation, marine and land fuel, to offer our customers fuel pricing alternatives to meet their needs and to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We also enter into proprietary derivative transactions, primarily intended to capitalize on ar bitrage opportunities in basis or time spreads related to fuel products we sell. We have applied the normal purchase and normal sales exception (“NPNS”), as provided by accounting guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities, to certain of our physical forward sales and purchase contracts. While these contracts are considered derivative instruments under the guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities, they are not recorded at fair value, but rather are recorded in our consolidated financial statements when physical settlement of the contracts occurs. If it is determined that a transaction designated as NPNS no longer meets the scope of the exception, the fair value of the related contract is recorded as an asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheet and the difference between the fair value and the contract amount is immediately recognized through earnings.

The following describes our derivative classifications:

Cash Flow Hedges. Includes certain commodity contracts we enter into to mitigate the risk of price volatility in forecasted purchases and sales.

Fair Value Hedges. Includes derivatives we enter into in order to hedge price risk associated with our inventory and certain firm commitments relating to fixed price purchase and sale contracts.

Non-designated Derivatives. Includes derivatives we primarily enter into in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in aviation, marine and land fuel in the form of swaps or futures as well as certain fixed price purchase and sale contracts and proprietary trading. In addition, non-designated derivatives are entered into to hedge the risk of currency rate fluctuations.

We enter into derivative instrument contracts which may require us to periodically post collateral. Certain of these derivative contracts contain clauses that are similar to credit-risk-related contingent features, including material adverse change, general adequate assurance and internal credit review clauses that may require additional collateral to be posted and/or settlement of the instruments in the event an aforementioned clause is triggered. The triggering events are not a quantifiable measure; rather they are based on good faith and reasonable determination by the counterparty that the triggers have occurred. As of September 30, 2015, the net liability position for such contracts is $62.2 million, the collateral posted is $43.9 million and the amount of assets required to be posted and/or to settle the positions should a credit-risk contingent feature be triggered is $30.2 m illion. As of December 31, 2014, the net liability position for such contracts is $111.7 million, the collateral posted is $89.4 million and the amount of assets required to be posted and/or to settl e the positions should a credit-risk contingent feature be triggered is $22.3 million.

We had outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility totaling $525.0 million and $420.0 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Our issued letters of credit under the Credit Facility totaled $7.8 million and $14.8 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the unused portion of our Credit Facility was $727.2 million and $665.2 million, respectively.

5. Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

During the third quarter of 2015 and in connection with the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Pester, we committed to a plan to sell certain assets and liabilities of Pester’s fuel retail business. As all of the criteria for classification as held for sale were met, those assets and liabilities of the business were presented separately as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2015. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, the long-lived assets of the disposal group were recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the acquisition date. The current assets and liabilities within the disposal group approximate fair value based on the short maturities of these instruments. For operating segment reporting purposes, these net assets have been reported as part of the land segment.

The major classes of assets and liabilities held for sale included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows (in millions):

|  | As of
|  | September 30, 2015
Current assets held for sale: |  |  |

7.Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

Lac-Megantic, Quebec

As described in Part II — Item 1 of this 10-Q Report, various lawsuits have been filed against us and other third parties related to the July 2013 train derailment in Lac-Mégantic, Quebec (the “Derailment”). On June 8, 2015, we entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the Trustee (the “Trustee”) for the U.S. bankruptcy estate of Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway, Ltd., Montreal, Maine and Atlantic Canada Co. (“MMAC”), and the monitor (the “Monitor”) in MMAC’s Canadian bankruptcy (collectively, the “MMA Parties”) to resolve all claims arising out of the Derailment. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, we will contribute US$110 million (the “Settlement Payment”) to a compensation fund established to compensate parties who suffered losses as a result of the Derailment. As part of the settlement, we will also assign to the Trustee and MMAC certain claims we have against third parties arising out of the Derailment.

In consideration of the Settlement Payment and the assignment of claims to the Trustee and MMAC, we, as well as our former joint ventures, DPTS Marketing, LLC and Dakota Petroleum Transport Solutions, LLC and each of their affiliates (collectively, the “WFS Parties”), will receive the benefit of the global releases and injunctions set forth in the respective bankruptcy plans filed by the Trustee in the U.S. and by MMAC in Canada (the “U.S. Bankruptcy Plan” and the “CCAA Plan” respectively, each a “Plan” and collectively the “Plans”). The effect of these global releases and injunctions will be to bar all claims which may exist now or in the future against the WFS Parties arising out of the Derailment, other than criminal claims which by law may not be released.

Neither the releases and injunctions set forth in the Plans nor our obligation to make the Settlement Payment will be effective unless and until the Plans are approved by creditors in both the U.S. and Canadian bankruptcies, an order sanctioning the CCAA Plan is issued by the Canadian bankruptcy court, orders confirming the U.S. Bankruptcy Plan and recognizing the CCAA Plan are issued by the U.S. bankruptcy court, an order confirming the U.S. Approval Order (as defined below) is issued by the U.S. District Court and each such order becomes final and non-appealable (“Final Approval”).

The CCAA Plan was approved by creditors and the Canadian bankruptcy court entered an order sanctioning the CCAA Plan in July 2015 (the “Canadian Approval Order”). Canadian Pacific Railway (“CPR”) subsequently requested leave of court to appeal the Canadian Approval Order, which request remains pending. In October 2015, the Canadian bankruptcy court issued an order approving modifications to the Canadian Approval Order (the “Amended Canadian Approval Order”). Based on these modifications, and similar terms included in the U.S. Approval Order, CPR has agreed to withdraw, upon Final Approval, all of its objections and appeals relating to the Plans.

In August 2015, the CCAA Plan and the Canadian Approval Order were recognized under the U.S. bankruptcy code by an order of the U.S. bankruptcy court. CPR subsequently appealed the order recognizing the CCAA Plan but, as previously noted, has agreed to withdraw its appeal upon Final Approval. In October 2015, the U.S. bankruptcy court entered a supplemental order recognizing the Amended Canadian Approval Order.

The U.S. Bankruptcy Plan has been approved by creditors and the U.S. bankruptcy court entered an order confirming the U.S. Bankruptcy Plan in October 2015 (the “U.S. Approval Order”). The U.S. Approval Order remains subject to the review and approval of the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine.

Table of Contents

Allowable time periods for appeals of certain of the orders remain and any order issued by the U.S. District Court would not be final until expiration of an appeal period. As a result, Final Approval of both the U.S. Bankruptcy Plan and CCAA Plan and the related timing remain uncertain. For additional information regarding legal proceedings related to the Derailment, see Part II — Item 1 of this 10-Q Report.

Based on anticipated payments under the Settlement Agreement, the value of the tank cars involved in the incident, payments under settlement agreements with certain lessors as well as legal and other costs incurred in connection with the incident, which we believe are probable and for which a reasonable estimate can be made, we have recorded total liabilities of $158.9 million. We believe that a substantial portion of these liabilities is covered by insurance and have recorded total receivables of $155.1 million. As of September 30, 2015, the remaining unpaid liabilities of $124.9 million are included primarily in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and the remaining uncollected receivable of $137.5 million is included in other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Other Matters

In connection with a theft of fuel product valued at approximately $18.0 million, we recorded an insurance receivable for the full amount of the loss, which is included in other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. On July 31, 2014, our insurer, AGCS Marine Insurance Company (“AGCS”), filed a declaratory judgment action against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking a court ruling that the loss is not covered under our policy. During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, we filed an answer to the AGCS complaint and counterclaims against AGCS for declaratory judgment and breach of contract seeking a court ruling that the loss is covered under the policy, an award of damages equal to the full amount of our loss plus interest, as well as fees and costs. We believe AGCS’ position is without merit and we intend to vigorously pursue our rights. However, due to the complexities and uncertainties inherent in litigation, we can provide no assurance that we will recover the full amount of the loss.

We are a party to various claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business including, but not limited to, environmental claims, commercial and governmental contract claims, such as property damage, demurrage, personal injury, billing and fuel quality claims, as well as bankruptcy preference claims and tax and administrative claims. We have established loss provisions for these ordinary course claims as well as other matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. As of September 30, 2015, we had recorded certain reserves which were not significant. For those matters where a reserve has not been established and for which we believe a loss is reasonably possible, as well as for matters where a reserve has been recorded but for which an exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued is reasonably possible, we believe that such losses will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. However, any adverse resolution of one or more such claims, complaints or proceedings during a particular period could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures for that period.

Our estimates regarding potential losses and materiality are based on our judgment and assessment of the claims utilizing currently available information. Although we will continue to reassess our reserves and estimates based on future developments, our objective assessment of the legal merits of such claims may not always be predictive of the outcome and actual results may vary from our current estimates.

Termination of Employment Agreement

On March 13, 2015, we agreed with Mr. Michael S. Clementi that he would retire from his position as Aviation Segment President, effective March 16, 2015. In connection with the termination of his employment agreement, we recorded a charge totaling $3.8 million in March 2015, which included non-cash expenses of $0.8 million related to previously awarde d stock compensation. As of September 30, 2015, $0.5 million of the cash portion of the termination of the employment agreement charge was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $1.7 million was included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

8.Shareholders’ Equity

In June 2015, our Board of Directors renewed its existing common stock repurchase program by replacing the remainder of the existing program and authorizing the purchase of up to $100.0 million in common stock. The program does not require a minimum number of shares of common stock to be purchased, has no expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of September 30, 2015, we have $59.5 million available to repurchase shares under the share repurchase program.

Other Comprehensive Loss and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Our other comprehensive loss, consisting of foreign currency translation adjustments related to our subsidiaries that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar and cash flow hedges, was as follows (in millions):

|  | Foreign |  |  |  | Accumulated
|  | Currency |  | Cash |  | Other
|  | Translation Adjustments |  | Flow Hedges |  | Comprehensive Loss
Balance as of December 31, 2014 |  | $ | (60.2) |  | $ | — |  | $ | (60.2)
Other comprehensive loss |  |  | (42.8) |  |  | (1.1) |  |  | (43.9)
Less: Net other comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interest |  |  | 4.6 |  |  | — |  |  | 4.6
Balance as of September 30, 2015 |  | $ | (107.6) |  | $ | (1.1) |  | $ | (108.7)
Balance as of December 31, 2013 |  | $ | (29.3) |  | $ | — |  | $ | (29.3)

Balance as of September 30, 2014 |  | $ | (37.7) |  | $ | — |  | $ | (37.7)

The foreign currency translation adjustment losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar as compared to the Brazilian Real. The foreign currency translation adjustment losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S dollar as compared to the Brazilian Real and the British Pound.

9.Income Taxes

Our income tax provision for the periods presented and the respective effective income tax rates for such periods are as follows (in millions, except for income tax rates):

| For the Three Months ended |  | For the Nine Months ended |
| September 30, |  | September 30, |
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2015 |  | 2014 |
Income tax provision | $ | 11.8 |  | $ | 13.4 |  | $ | 26.8 |  | $ | 35.0 |
Effective income tax rate |  | 19.5 | % |  | 19.8 | % |  | 16.9 | % |  | 18.8 | %

Our provision for income taxes for each of the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 201 4 was calculated based on the estimated annual effective income tax rate for the full 2015 and 201 4 fiscal years. The actual effective income tax rate for the full 201 5 fiscal year may be materially different as a result of differences between estimated versus actual results and the geographic tax jurisdictions in which the results are earned.

We operated under a special income tax concession in Singapore which began January 1, 2008. Our current five year special income tax concession was effective January 1, 2013. The special income tax concession is conditional upon our meeting of certain employment and investment thresholds which, if not met in accordance with our agreement, may eliminate the benefit beginning with the first year in which the conditions are not satisfied. The income tax concession reduces the income tax rate on qualified sales and the impact of this income tax concession decreased foreign income taxes by $1.1 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and by $3.9 million and $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Item 2.Management’s Discussio n and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our 2014 10-K Report and the consolidated financial statements and related notes in “Item 1 — Financial Statements” appearing elsewhere in this 10-Q Report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ significantly from the results suggested by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that may cause our results to differ materially from the results and events anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements are described in “Item 1A — Risk Facto rs” of our 2014 10-K Report.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this report and the information incorporated by reference in it, or made by us in other reports, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), press releases, teleconferences, industry conferences or otherwise, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and may contain the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “could,” “would,” “will,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “plan,” or words or phrases of similar meaning.

Forward-looking statements are estimates and projections reflecting our best judgment and involve risks, uncertainties or other factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These statements are based on our management’s expectations, beliefs and assumptions concerning future events affecting us, which in turn are based on currently available information.

Examples of forward-looking statements in this 10-Q Report include, but are not limited to, our expectations regarding our business strategy, business prospects, operating results, effectiveness of internal controls to manage risk, working capital, liquidity, capital expenditure requirements and future acquisitions. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the cost, terms and availability of fuel from suppliers, pricing levels, the timing and cost of capital expenditures, outcome of pending litigation, competitive conditions, general economic conditions and synergies relating to acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our expectations may prove to be incorrect.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results and events anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

| · |  | customer and counterparty creditworthiness and our ability to collect accounts receivable and settle derivative contracts;

| · |  | changes in the market price of fuel;

| · |  | changes in the political, economic or regulatory conditions generally and in the markets in which we operate;

| · |  | our failure to effectively hedge certain financial risks and the use of derivatives;

| · |  | non-performance by counterparties or customers to derivative contracts;

| · |  | changes in credit terms extended to us from our suppliers;

| · |  | non-performance of suppliers on their sale commitments and customers on their purchase commitments;

| · |  | loss of, or reduced sales to a significant government customer;

| · |  | non-performance of third-party service providers;

| · |  | adverse conditions in the industries in which our customers operate, including a continuation of the global economic instability and its impact on the airline and shipping industries;

| · |  | other risks, including those described in “Ite m 1A - Risk Factors” in our 2014 10-K Report and those described from time to time in our other filings with the SEC.

We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for us to predict all of those risks, nor can we assess the impact of all of those risks on our business or the extent to which any factor may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements in this 10-Q Report are based on assumptions management believes are reasonable. However, due to the uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and unless required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to publicly update any of them in light of new information, future events, or otherwise.

For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act.

Overview

We are a global fuel logistics, transaction management and payment processing company, principally engaged in the distribution of fuel and related products and services in the aviation, marine and land transportation industries. We compete by providing our customers with value‑added benefits, including single‑supplier convenience, competitive pricing, the availability of trade credit, price risk management, logistical support, fuel quality control and fuel procurement outsourcing. We have three reportable operating business segments: aviation, marine, and land. We primarily contract with third parties for the delivery and storage of fuel products, however, in some cases we own storage and transportation assets for strategic purposes. In our aviation segment, we offer fuel and related products and services to major commercial airlines, second and third‑tier airlines, cargo carriers, regional and low cost carriers, airports, fixed based operators, corporate fleets, fractional operators, private aircraft, military fleets and to the U.S. and foreign governments. In our marine segment, we offer fuel, lubricants and related products and services to a broad base of marine customers, including international container and tanker fleets, commercial cruise lines, yachts and time‑charter operators, offshore rig owners and operators, the U.S. and foreign governments as well as other fuel suppliers. In our land segment, we offer fuel, lubricants, natural gas and related products and services to customers including petroleum distributors operating in the land transportation market, retail petroleum operators, and industrial, commercial, residential and government customers as well as engage in crude oil marketing activities. In addition, we offer transaction management services which consist of card payment solutions and merchant processing services to customers in the aviation, marine and land transportation industries.

In our aviation and land segments, we primarily purchase and resell fuel and other products, and we do not act as brokers. Profit from our aviation and land segments is primarily determined by the volume and the gross profit achieved on fuel resales and a percentage of card payment and processing revenue. In our marine segment, we primarily purchase and resell fuel and other products, and also act as brokers for others. Profit from our marine segment is determined primarily by the volume and gross profit achieved on fuel resales and by the volume and commission rate of the brokering business. Our profitability in our segments also depends on our operating expenses, which may be significantly affected to the extent that we are required to provide for potential bad debt.

Our revenue and cost of revenue are significantly impacted by world oil prices, as evidenced in part by our revenue and cost of revenue fluctuations in previous fiscal years, while our gross profit is not necessarily impacted by changes in world oil prices. However, significant movements in fuel prices during any given financial period can have a significant impact on our gross profit, either positively or negatively depending on the direction, volatility and timing of such price movements.

We may experience decreases in future sales volumes and margins as a result of the ongoing deterioration in the world economy, the decline of the transportation industry, natural disasters and continued conflicts and instability in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Asia and Latin America, as well as potential future terrorist activities and possible military retaliation. In addition, because fuel costs represent a significant part of our customers’ operating expenses, volatile and/or high fuel prices can adversely affect our customers’ businesses, and, consequently, the demand for our services and our results of operations. Our hedging activities may not be effective to mitigate volatile fuel prices and may expose us to counterparty risk. See “Item 1A — Risk Factors” of our 201 4 10-K Report.

Reportable Segments

We have three reportable operating segments: aviation, marine and land. Corporate expenses are allocated to each segment based on usage, where possible, or on other factors according to the nature of the activity. We evaluate and manage our business segments using the performance measurement of income from operations. Financial Information with respect to our business segments is provided in Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included in this 10-Q Report.

Results of Operations

Our results of operations include (i) the results of the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Watson Petroleum Limited (now known as WFL (UK) Limited) (“Watson Petroleum”) in our land segment commencing on March 7, 2014, its acquisition date, (ii) the results of the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Colt International, L.L.C (“Colt”) in our aviation segment commencing on July 29, 2014, its acquisition date and (iii) the results of the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Pester Marketin g Company (“Pester”) i n our land segment commencing on September 1, 2015, its acquisition date.

Our aviation segment revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $3.0 billion, a decrease of $1.7 billion, or 35.9%, as compared to the third quarter of 2014. Of the decrease in aviation segment revenue, $2.2 billion was due to a decrease in the average price per gallon sold as a result of lower average jet fuel prices in the third quarter of 2015 as compared to the third quarter of 2014, which was partially offset by $0.5 billion principally due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers.

Our marine segment revenue for the third quarter of 2015 was $2.4 billion, a decrease of $1.3 billion, or 35.9%, as compared to the third quarter of 2014. Of the decrease in marine segment revenue, $2.5 billion was due to a decrease in the average price per metric ton sold as a result of lower average marine fuel prices in the third quarter of 2015 as compared to the third quarter of 2014, which was partially offset by $1.2 billion due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers.

Our aviation segment gross profit for the third quarter of 2015 was $106.8 million, an increase of $10.6 million, or 11.1%, as compared to the third quarter of 2014. The increase in aviation segment gross profit was due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers.

Our marine segment gross profit for the third quarter of 2015 was $48.6 million, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 1.7%, as compared to the third quarter of 2014. Of the decrease in marine segment gross profit, $17.0 million was due to lower gross profit per metric ton sold in the third quarter of 2015 as compared to the third quarter of 2014, which was partially offset by $16.2 million in increased volume attributable to new and existing customers.

Our land segment gross profit for the third quarter of 2015 was $71.3 million, an increase of $2.3 million, or 3.3%, as compared to the third quarter of 2014.

Our aviation segment income from operations for the third quarter of 2015 was $47.0 million, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 0.7%, as compared to the third quarter of 2014. This decrease resulted from a $10.9 million increase in operating expenses, which was partially offset by $10.6 million in higher gross profit. Of the increase in operating expenses, $5.8 million was principally due to increased operating expenses to support our growing global business and $5.1 million was related to the inclusion of acquired businesses.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation between our diluted earnings per common share and non-GAAP diluted earning s per common share for the third quarter of 2015 and 2014:

|  | For the Three Months ended
|  | September 30,
|  | 2015 |  | 2014
Diluted earnings per common share |  | $ | 0.71 |  | $ | 0.78
Share-based compensation expense, net of income taxes |  |  | 0.05 |  |  | 0.04
Intangible asset amortization expense, net of income taxes |  |  | 0.07 |  |  | 0.08
Expenses related to acquisitions, net of income taxes |  |  | 0.03 |  |  | 0.01
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share |  | $ | 0.86 |  | $ | 0.91

The non-GAAP financial measures exclude costs associated with share-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets and the expenses related to acquisitions primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the Company’s core operating results. We believe the exclusion of share-based compensation from operating expenses is useful given the variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair value of our common stock, the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our operating costs. Also, we believe the exclusion of the amortization of acquired intangible assets and the expenses related to acquisitions are useful for purposes of evaluating operating performance of our core operating results and comparing them period over period. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, are useful to investors to further aid in evaluating the ongoing financial performance of the Company and to provide greater transparency as supplemental information to our GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to World Fuel and available to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock, stock units, restricted stock entitled to dividends not subject to forfeiture and vested RSUs outstanding during the period and the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if our outstanding potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 201 4

Revenue. Our revenue for the fir st nine months of 2015 was $23.6 billion, a decrease of $10.0 billion, or 29.6%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Our revenue during these periods was attributable to the following segments (in millions):

|  | For the Nine Months ended |  |  |
|  | September 30, |  |  |
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | $ Change
Aviation segment |  | $ | 9,077.6 |  | $ | 13,361.8 |  | $ | (4,284.2)
Marine segment |  |  | 7,514.3 |  |  | 10,738.6 |  |  | (3,224.3)
Land segment |  |  | 7,055.9 |  |  | 9,506.4 |  |  | (2,450.5)
|  | $ | 23,647.8 |  | $ | 33,606.8 |  | $ | (9,959.0)

Our aviation segment revenue for the first nine months of 2015 was $9.1 billion, a decrease of $4.3 billion, or 32.1%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Of the decrease in aviation segment revenue, $5.8 billion was due to a decrease in the average price per gallon sold as a result of lower average jet fuel prices in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014, which was partially offset by $1.5 billion principally due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers.

Our marine segment revenue for the first nine months of 2015 was $7.5 billion, a decrease of $3.2 billion, or 30.0%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Of the decrease in marine segment revenue, $6.7 billion was due to a decrease in the average price per metric ton sold as a result of lower average marine fuel prices in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014, which was partially offset by $3.5 billion due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers.

Our land segment revenue for the first nine months of 2015 was $7.1 billion, a decrease of $2.4 billion, or 25.8%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Of the decrease in land segment revenue, $3.7 billion was due to a decrease in the average price per gallon sold as a result of lower average land fuel prices in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014, which was partially offset by $0.9 billion due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers and $0.4 billion due to revenue from acquired businesses.

Gross Profit. Our gross profit for the first nine months of 2015 was $632.6 million, an increase of $38.5 million, or 6.5%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Our gross profit during these periods was attributable to the following segments (in millions):

|  | For the Nine Months ended |  |  |
|  | September 30, |  |  |
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | $ Change
Aviation segment |  | $ | 274.8 |  | $ | 246.9 |  | $ | 27.9
Marine segment |  |  | 144.3 |  |  | 146.1 |  |  | (1.8)
Land segment |  |  | 213.5 |  |  | 201.1 |  |  | 12.4
|  | $ | 632.6 |  | $ | 594.1 |  | $ | 38.5

Our aviation segment gross profit for the first nine months of 2015 was $274.8 million, an increase of $27.9 million, or 11.3%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Of the increase in aviation segment gross profit, $22.8 million was due to gross profit from acquired businesses and $22.7 million was due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers. These increases were partially offset by $17.7 million in lower gross profit per gallon sold due to fluctuations in customer mix.

Our marine segment gross profit for the first nine months of 2015 was $144.3 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 1.2%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Of the decrease in marine segment gross profit, $49.8 million was due to lower gross pr ofit per metric ton sold in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014, which was partially offset by $48.1 million in increased volume attributable to new and existing customers.

Our land segment gross profit for the first nine months of 2015 was $213.5 million, an increase of $12.4 million, or 6.2%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Of the increase in land segment gross profit, $1 9.7 million was due to gross profit from acquired businesses and $15.7 million was due to increased volume attributable to new and existing customers. These increase s were partially offset by $2 3.0 million in lower gross profit per gallon sold due to fluctuations in customer mix.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the first nine months of 2015 were $45 3.3 million, an increas e of $57.4 million, or 14.5%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. The following table sets forth our expense categories (in millions):

|  | For the Nine Months ended |  |  |
|  | September 30, |  |  |
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | $ Change
Compensation and employee benefits |  | $ | 270.5 |  | $ | 233.6 |  | $ | 36.9

|  | $ | 453.3 |  | $ | 395.9 |  | $ | 57.4

Of the $36.9 million increase in compensation and employee benefits, $19.6 million was due to the inclusion of expenses from acquired businesses and $17.3 million was principally due to compensation for new hires to support our growing global business. Of the $18.8 million increase in general and administrative expenses, $11.3 million was due to the inclusion of expenses from acquired businesses and $7.5 million was due to increased general and administrative expenses to support our growing global business.

Income from Operations. Our income from operations for the first nine months of 2015 was $17 9.3 million, a decrease of $18.9 million, or 9.5%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Income from operations during these periods was attributable to the following segments (in millions):

|  | For the Nine Months ended |  |  |
|  | September 30, |  |  |
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | $ Change
Aviation segment |  | $ | 100.8 |  | $ | 114.5 |  | $ | (13.7)
Marine segment |  |  | 57.3 |  |  | 62.9 |  |  | (5.6)

|  | $ | 179.3 |  | $ | 198.2 |  | $ | (18.9)

Our aviation segment income from operations for the first nine months of 2015 was $100.8 million, a decrease of $13.7 million, or 12.0%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. This decrease resulted from a $41.6 million increase in operating expenses, which was partially offset by $27.9 million in higher gross profit. Of the increase in operating expenses, $23.7 million was related to the inclusion of acquired businesses, $3.8 million was related to the termination of the employment agreement of our former Aviation Segment President and $14.1 million was due to increased operating expenses to support our growing global business.

Our marine segment income from operations for the first nine months of 2015 was $57.3 million, a decrease of $5.6 million, or 8.9%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. This decrease resulted from a $3.8 million increase in operating expenses and $1.8 million in lower gross profit.

Our land segment income from operations for the first nine months of 2015 was $67.3 million, an increase of $7.3 million, or 12.2%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. This increase resulted from $12.4 million in higher gross profit, which was partially offset by a $5.1 million increase in operating expenses. The increase in operating expenses was principally due to expenses related to acquired businesses.

Corporate overhead costs not charged to the business segments for the first nine months of 2015 were $46.1 million, an increase of $6.9 million, or 17.6%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014 principally due to increased expenses to support our growing global business.

Non-Operating Expenses, net. For the first nine months of 2015, we had non-operating expenses, net of $21.0 million, an increase of $9.1 million as compared to the first nine months of 2014. This increase was principally due to a $5.8 million reduction of equity earnings in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014 and a $3.7 million increase in interest expense and other financing costs, net, as a result of higher average borrowings in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014.

Income Taxes. For the first nine months of 2015, our effective income tax rate was 16.9% and our income tax provision was $2 6.8 million, as compared to an e ffective income tax rate of 18.8% a nd an income tax provision of $35.0 million for the first nine months of 2014. The lower effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2015 resulted principally from differences in the results of our subsidiaries in tax jurisdictions with different income tax rates as compared to the first nine months of 2014.

Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Common Share. Our net income for the first nine months of 2015 was $135.1 m illion, a decrease of $19.5 million, or 12.6%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014. Diluted earnings per common share for the first nine months of 2015 was $1.9 0 per common share, a decrease of $0.2 7 per common share, or 12.4%, as compared to the first nine months of 2014.

Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings per Common Share.

The non-GAAP financial measures exclude costs associated with share-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments, expenses related to the acquisition s, the termination of an employment agreement and the executive non-renewal charge primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the Company’s core operating

results. We believe the exclusion of share-based compensation from operating expenses is useful given the variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair value of our common stock, the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our operating costs. Also, we believe the exclusion of the amortization of acquired intangible assets, the expenses related to the acq uisition s, the termination of an employment agreement and the executive non-renewal charge are useful for purposes of evaluating operating performance of our core operating results and comparing them period over period. In accordance with the fair value provisions applicable to the accounting for business combinations, acquired deferred revenue is often recorded on the opening balance sheet at an amount that is lower than the historical carrying value. Although this acquisition accounting requirement has no impact on our business or cash flows, it adversely impacts our reported GAAP revenue in the reporting periods following an acquisition. We believe that the exclusion of the deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustment is useful to investors as an additional means to reflect trends of our business and provides investors with financial information that facilitates comparison of both historical and future results. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, are useful to investors to further aid in evaluating the ongoing financial performance of the Company and to provide greater transparency as supplemental information to our GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to World Fuel and available to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock, stock units, restricted stock entitled to dividends not subject to forfeiture and vested RSUs outstanding during the period and the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if our outstanding potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

The following table reflects the major categ ories of cash flows for the nine months ended September 3 0, 2015 and 2014 (in millions). For additional details, please see the consolidated statements of cash flows.

|  | For the Nine Months ended
|  | September 30,
|  | 2015 |  | 2014
Net cash provided by operating activities |  | $ | 325.2 |  | $ | 129.1
Net cash used in investing activities |  |  | (114.0) |  |  | (290.2)
Net cash provided by financing activities |  |  | 99.9 |  |  | 259.9

Operating Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net cash provided by operating activities was $325.2 million as compared to $1 2 9.1 million for the first nine months of 2014. The $196.1 million increase in operating cash flows was primarily due to year-over-year changes in assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions.

Investing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net cash used in investing activities was $114.0 million as compared to $290.2 million for the first nine months of 2014. The $17 6.2 million decrease in cash used in investing activities was principally due to a decrease in cash used for the acquisition of businesses in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014.

Financing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net cash provided by financing activities was $99.9 million as compared to $259.9 million fo r the first nine months of 2014. The $160.0 million decrease in cash provided by financing activities was principally due to a $91.1 million decrease in net borrowings in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014 and $60.5 million increase of common stock repurchases in the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the first nine months of 2014.

Other Liquidity Measures

Cash and Cash Equivalents. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalen ts of $609.6 million and $3 02.3 million, respectively. Our primary uses of cash and cash equivalents are to fund accounts receivable, purchase inventory and make strategic investments, primarily acquisitions. We are usually extended unsecured trade credit from our suppliers for our fuel purchases; however, certain suppliers require us to either prepay or provide a letter of credit. Increases in oil prices can negatively affect

32

Table of Contents

liquidity by increasing the amount of cash needed to fund fuel purchases as well as reducing the amount of fuel which we can purchase on an unsecured basis from our suppliers.

Credit Facility and Term Loans. We have a Credit Facility which permits borrowings up to $1.26 billion. Under the Credit Facility, we have the right to request increases in available borrowings up to an additional $150.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Additionally, the Credit Facility has a sublimit of $400.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances and matures in October 2018. We had outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility totaling $525.0 million a nd $420.0 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Our issued letters of credit under the Credit Facility totaled $7.8 million and $14.8 million as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. We also had $336.2 million and $241.3 million in Te rm Loans outstanding as of September 3 0, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. As of September 3 0, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the unused portion of our C redit Facility was $727.2 million and $665.2 million, respectively.

Our liquidity, consisting of cash and cash equivalents and availability under the Credit Facility fluctuates based on a number of factors, including the timing of receipts from our customers and payments to our suppliers as well as commodity prices. Our Credit Facility and our Term Loans contain certain financial and other covenants with which we are required to comply. Our failure to comply with the covenants contained in our Credit Facility and our Term Loans could result in an event of default. An event of default, if not cured or waived, would permit acceleration of any outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility and our Term Loans, trigger cross‑defaults under certain other agreements to which we are a party and impair our ability to obtain working capital advances and issue letters of credit, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operation s and cash flows. As of September 3 0, 2 015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants contained in our Credit Facility and our Term Loans.

Other Credit Lines and Receivables Purchase Agreements. Additionally, we have other uncommitted credit lines primarily for the issuance of letters of credit, bank guarantees and bankers’ acceptances. These credit lines are renewable on an annual basis and are subject to fees at market rates. As of September 30, 201 5 and December 31, 2014, our outstanding letters of credit and bank guarantees under thes e credit lines totaled $218.6 million and $211.4 million, respectively. We also have Receivables Purchase Agreements (“RPAs”) that allow for the sale of up to an aggregate of $375.0 million of our accounts rece ivable. As of September 30, 2015, we had sold accounts receivable of $129.6 million under the RPAs.

Short-Term Debt. As of September 30, 201 5, our short-term debt of $23.2 million primarily represents the current maturities (wi thin the next twelve months) of Term Loan borrowings, certain promissor y notes related to acquisitions and capital lease obligations.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents as of September 3 0, 2015 (of which $105.1 million was available for use by our U.S. subsidiaries without incurring additional costs) and available funds from our Credit Facility, together with cash flows generated by operations, remain sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. In addition, to further enhance our liquidity profile, we may choose to raise additional funds which may or may not be needed for additional working capital, capital expenditures or other strategic investments. Our opinions concerning liquidity are based on currently available information. To the extent this information proves to be inaccurate, or if circumstances change, future availability of trade credit or other sources of financing may be reduced and our liquidity would be adversely affected. Factors that may affect the availability of trade credit or other forms of financing include our financial performance (as measured by various factors, including cash provided by operating activities), the state of worldwide credit markets, and our levels of outstanding debt. Depending on the severity and direct impact of these factors on us, financing may be limited or unavailable on terms favorable to us.

In June 2015, our Board of Directors renewed its existing common stock repurchase program by replacing the remainder of the existing program and authorizing the purchase of up to $100.0 million in common stock. The program does not require a minimum number of shares of common stock to be purchased, has no expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of September 30, 2015, we have $59.5 million available to repurchase shares under the share repurchase program. The timing and amount of shares of common stock to be repurchased under the program will depend on market conditions, share price, securities law and other legal requirements and factors.

Item 4.Controls and Procedure s

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this 10-Q Report, we evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 201 5.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 3 0, 2015.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only the reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.

Part II — Other Informatio n

Item 1.Legal Proceeding s.

Lac-Mégantic, Quebec

We, on behalf of DPTS Marketing, LLC (“DPM”), a crude oil marketing joint venture in which we previously owned a 50% membership interest, purchased crude oil from various producers in the Bakken region of North Dakota. Dakota Petroleum Transport Solutions, LLC (“DPTS”), a crude oil transloading joint venture in which we also previously owned a 50% membership interest, arranged for the transloading of the crude oil for DPM into tank cars at its facility in New Town, North Dakota. We leased the tank cars used in the transloading from a number of third party lessors and subleased these tank cars to DPM. We, on behalf of DPM, contracted with Canadian Pacific Railway (“CPR”) for the transportation of the tank cars and the crude oil from New Town, North Dakota to a customer in New Brunswick, Canada. CPR subcontracted a portion of that route to Montreal, Maine and Atlantic Railway (“MMA”). On July 6, 2013, the freight train operated by MMA with tank cars carrying approximately 50,000 barrels of crude oil derailed in Lac-Mégantic, Quebec (the “Derailment”). The Derailment resulted in significant loss of life, damage to the environment from spilled crude oil and extensive property damage.

In 2013, we, certain of our subsidiaries, DPM and DPTS, along with a number of third parties, including MMA and certain of its affiliates, as well as several manufacturers and lessors of tank cars, were named as defendants in twenty complaints filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. The complaints generally allege wrongful death and negligence in the failure to provide for the proper and safe transportation of crude oil and seek economic and compensatory damages, as well as costs. The actions were removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the “IL District Court”) and subsequently reassigned to a single judge in the IL District Court (other than one action that was remanded to state court prior to reassignment and another that was voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiffs).

The plaintiffs subsequently filed a motion to have these actions remanded to state court. We filed a motion in the United States District Court for the District of Maine (the “ME District Court”), where MMA’s bankruptcy is pending, to transfer all of these actions to that court. On March 21, 2014, the ME District Court granted the transfer motion. On April 4, 2014, the plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration of the order granting the transfer motion and a motion requesting the ME District Court abstain from exercising jurisdiction over the transferred cases. The motion for reconsideration was denied and the motion for abstention remains pending. On May 1, 2014, the plaintiffs filed a notice stating their intention to appeal the order granting the transfer motion to the First Circuit Court of Appeals. On June 17, 2014, the ME District Court entered a consent order staying proceedings in the transferred cases pending the appeal. On March 23, 2015, the ME District Court entered an amended consent order staying proceedings in the transferred cases pending the appeal but allowing plaintiffs to file additional cases. As a result, in June 2015, we, certain of our subsidiaries, DPM and DPTS, along with numerous third parties were named as defendants in thirty-five new complaints filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. The allegations, claims and damages sought against us in these new actions are substantially the same as in the transferred cases. On September 22, 2015, the plaintiffs in these cases moved to stay the claims against us and on October 1 and 2, 2015, CPR removed the cases to the IL District Court, where they remain pending. Additionally, in June 2015, we, certain of our subsidiaries, DPM and DPTS, along with numerous third parties were named as defendants in two class actions filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas. The class action complaints generally allege wrongful death and negligence in the failure to provide for the proper and safe transportation of crude oil and seek economic, compensatory and punitive damages, as well as costs. On August 14 and September 17, 2015, these actions were removed by CPR to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. In both actions, plaintiffs have filed motions to stay the claims against us. As discussed in greater detail below, we expect all of these new actions will be stayed in conjunction with the Settlement Agreement (as defined below).

In 2013, we, certain of our subsidiaries, DPM and DPTS, along with a number of other third parties, including CPR, MMA and certain of its affiliates, several manufacturers and lessors of tank cars, as well as the intended purchaser and certain suppliers of the crude oil, were named as defendants in a motion filed in Quebec Superior Court to authorize the bringing of a class-action lawsuit seeking economic, compensatory and punitive damages, as well as costs (the “Quebec Class Action”). The motion generally alleges wrongful death and negligence in the failure to provide for the proper and safe transportation of crude oil. On February 24, 2015, the Superior Court of Quebec issued an order staying the class action proceedings in light of settlement agreements reached by several other defendants with the Trustee and the monitor in MMA’s Canadian bankruptcy (the “Monitor”). On March 20, 2015, by terms of the order dated February 24, 2015, the stay was lifted in respect of all non-settling defendants, including us.

In 2013, the Quebec Minister for Sustainable Development, Environment, Wildlife and Parks (the “Minister”) issued an order requiring MMA and us to recover the spilled crude oil caused by the incident and to otherwise fully remediate the impact of the incident on the environment. The Minister subsequently issued a modified order, to which CPR was added as a party. The requirements of the modified order with respect to us are not materially different from the initial order (the initial order and modified order are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Order”). We have filed a contestation of the Order before the Tribunal administratif du Québec, an administrative body responsible for hearing such contestations, that challenges the legality and validity of the Order on various grounds. In July and September of 2014, we voluntarily entered into agreements with the government of Quebec to perform sediment characterization work in Lake Mégantic and the Chaudière River and certain remediation work in the Chaudière River. The associated cost of these activities was not significant and was covered by insurance. These agreements were made without admission of liability and under full reservation of rights.

On January 30, 2014, the Trustee filed an adversary proceeding against us, and certain of our subsidiaries, in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maine alleging negligence in the failure to provide the proper and safe transportation of crude oil, and seeking economic damages, as well as costs and expenses associated with MMA’s lawsuits arising from the incident. On May 29, 2014, we and our named subsidiaries filed an answer to the Trustee’s complaint. On January 9, 2015, the Trustee filed an amended complaint in the adversary proceeding naming CPR and Irving Oil Limited as defendants, and on May 18, 2015, the Trustee filed a second amended complaint naming SMBC Rail Services, LLC as a defendant. Discovery in the case has commenced.

In addition to these proceedings, we have received demands for defense and/or indemnification from certain tank car lessors pursuant to our lease agreements with such parties. In connection with these demands, three of our tank car lessors have filed actions against us seeking a declaratory judgment on their indemnification claims and reimbursement for the value of certain leased tank cars that were lost or destroyed in the Derailment. Specifically, on July 28, 2014, The CIT Group/Equipment Financing, Inc. and CIT Group Inc. filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota alleging breach of contract and seeking declaratory relief and economic damages, as well as costs. On September 19, 2014, we filed a motion to dismiss certain counts of the complaint. On October 10, 2014, CIT filed a motion for partial summary judgment. On July 9, 2015, we entered into a settlement agreement with CIT resolving all claims between the parties arising out of the Derailment. The settlement is conditioned on Final Approval of the Settlement Agreement (as each term is defined and discussed in greater detail below). As a result of our settlement with CIT, on July 21, 2015, CIT filed a motion to dismiss its complaint. On August 4, 2015, the Court dismissed the case and judgment was entered.

Furthermore, on September 5, 2014, General Electric Railcar Services Corporation (“GE”) filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleging breach of contract and seeking declaratory relief and economic damages, as well as costs. On December 5, 2014, GE amended its complaint and on December 22, 2014, we filed a motion to dismiss certain counts of the amended complaint. On August 27, 2015, we entered into a settlement agreement with GE resolving all claims between the parties arising out of the Derailment. The settlement is conditioned on Final Approval of the Settlement Agreement. As a result of our settlement with GE, the parties filed a joint stipulation of dismissal on September 16, 2015 and the Court entered an order dismissing the case.

Finally, on November 11, 2014, SMBC Rail Services (“SMBC”) filed a complaint against us in the Northern District of Texas alleging breach of contract and seeking declaratory relief and economic damages, costs, and injunctive relief prohibiting us from entering into any settlement agreement that would impair the obligations owed to SMBC under the lease agreement. On November 18, 2014, SMBC filed a motion for a preliminary injunction that sought to prohibit us from continuing settlement negotiations with the Trustee, the Monitor or other parties. We filed an opposition to the preliminary injunction on December 2, 2014, and a motion to dismiss certain counts of the complaint the following day. On December 29, 2014, the court denied SMBC’s motion for a preliminary injunction. On June 18, 2015, the court granted our motion to dismiss and dismissed SMBC’s claims without prejudice.

On June 8, 2015, we entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the Trustee, Montreal, Maine and Atlantic Canada Co. (“MMAC”), and the monitor (the “Monitor”) in MMAC’s Canadian bankruptcy (collectively, the “MMA Parties”) to resolve all claims arising out of the Derailment. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, we will contribute US$110 million (the “Settlement Payment”) to a compensation fund established to compensate parties who suffered losses as a result of the Derailment. As part of the settlement, we will also assign to the Trustee and MMAC certain claims we have against third parties arising out of the Derailment.

Table of Contents

In consideration of the Settlement Payment and the assignment of claims to the Trustee and MMAC, we, as well as our former joint ventures, DPM and DPTS and each of their affiliates (collectively, the “WFS Parties”), will receive the benefit of the global releases and injunctions set forth in the respective bankruptcy plans filed by the Trustee in the U.S. and by MMAC in Canada (the “U.S. Bankruptcy Plan” and the “CCAA Plan” respectively, each a “Plan” and collectively the “Plans”). The effect of these global releases and injunctions will be to bar all claims which may exist now or in the future against the WFS Parties arising out of the Derailment, other than criminal claims which by law may not be released.

Neither the releases and injunctions set forth in the Plans nor our obligation to make the Settlement Payment will be effective unless and until the Plans are approved by creditors in both the U.S. and Canadian bankruptcies, an order sanctioning the CCAA Plan is issued by the Canadian bankruptcy court, orders confirming the U.S. Bankruptcy Plan and recognizing the CCAA Plan are issued by the U.S. bankruptcy court, an order confirming the U.S. Approval Order (as defined below) is issued by the U.S. District Court and each such order becomes final and non-appealable (“Final Approval”).

On June 9, 2015, MMAC’s creditors voted to approve the CCAA Plan and on July 13, 2015, the Canadian bankruptcy court issued an order sanctioning the CCAA Plan (the “Canadian Approval Order”). On July 28, 2015, CPR requested leave of court to appeal the Canadian Approval Order, which request remains pending. On October 9, 2015, the Canadian bankruptcy court issued an order approving modifications to the Canadian Approval Order (the “Amended Canadian Approval Order”). Based on these modifications, and similar terms included in the U.S. Approval Order, CPR has agreed to withdraw, upon Final Approval, all of its objections and appeals relating to the Plans.

On August 26, 2015, the CCAA Plan and the Canadian Approval Order were recognized under the U.S. bankruptcy code by an order of the U.S. bankruptcy court. CPR subsequently appealed the order recognizing the CCAA Plan, but, as previously noted, has agreed to withdraw its appeal upon Final Approval. On October 21, 2015, the U.S. bankruptcy court entered a supplemental order recognizing the Amended Canadian Approval Order.

The U.S. Bankruptcy Plan has been approved by creditors and on October 9, 2015, the U.S. bankruptcy court entered an order confirming the U.S. Bankruptcy Plan (the “U.S. Approval Order”). The U.S. Approval Order remains subject to the review and approval of the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine. We expect the U.S. District Court to enter an order confirming the U.S. Approval Order, which matter is currently uncontested.

While, allowable time periods for appeals of certain of the orders remain and any order issued by the U.S. District Court will not be final until expiration of an appeal period, we expect Final Approval to occur in the fourth quarter of 2015. At such time, the releases and injunctions set forth in the Plans will become effective and we will thereafter make the Settlement Payment.

Pending Final Approval of the Plans, under the terms of Settlement Agreement, the Trustee and MMAC agreed to move to stay any and all claims or proceedings that are currently pending or subsequently filed against the WFS Parties. Consequently, on June 26, 2015, upon motion of the Trustee, the U.S. bankruptcy court entered an order staying the Trustee’s adversary proceeding against us. In conjunction with the Settlement Agreement, plaintiffs’ counsel in the Quebec Class Action, plaintiffs’ counsel in the U.S. personal injury cases and counsel for the Province of Quebec agreed, upon execution of the Settlement Agreement by the WFS Parties, to stay the Quebec Class Action, the U.S. personal injury cases and the Order respectively. Consistent with the Settlement Agreement, we expect that the actions pending against us in Maine, Illinois and Texas, the Quebec Class Action, as well as the Order (and related contestation before the TAQ) will all be stayed as to the WFS Parties in due course. However, additional claims, lawsuits, proceedings, investigations and orders may be filed, commenced or issued with respect to the incident, which may involve civil claims for damages or governmental investigative, regulatory or enforcement actions against us.

We believe the claims against us in the Quebec Class Action, the Adversary Proceeding, the cases pending against us in Maine, Illinois and Texas and the claims filed by lessors are without merit. To the extent these actions are not stayed, or if the Plans do not receive Final Approval, we intend to vigorously defend against such claims and pursue any and all defenses available. Similarly, to the extent the Order and related contestation before the TAQ is not stayed or if the Plans do not receive Final Approval, we will continue to challenge both the legality and validity of the Order. If and when the Plans receive Final Approval, the global releases and injunctions set forth in the Plans will act to bar all of these claims.

In December 2014, we sold our 50% interest in DPM and DPTS to certain subsidiaries of Dakota Plains Holdings, Inc. (“DAKP”), our partner in the joint ventures. In connection with the sale transaction, we agreed to indemnify DAKP and certain of its affiliates, including DPM and DPTS, for third party claims for bodily injury or property damage arising from the Derailment. Pursuant to the agreement, we will control the defense of DAKP and the joint ventures for claims associated with the Derailment. In addition, DAKP assigned to us all recoveries from third parties and under applicable insurance policies held by DAKP and the joint ventures for claims arising out of the Derailment. Finally, DAKP also agreed to indemnify us for certain costs and expenses arising out of the Derailment up to $10.0 million. As noted above, under the Settlement Agreement, DAKP and its affiliates are entitled to receive the benefit of the releases and injunctions set forth in the Plans.
