Acquisition of Inergy Propane [Abstract] |
Acquisition of Inergy Propane | 3. Acquisition of Inergy Propane As described in Note 1, the Partnership completed the acquisition of Inergy Propane on August 1, 2012. The acquisition of Inergy Propane (the “Inergy Propane Acquisition”) was consummated pursuant to a definitive agreement dated April 25, 2012 with Inergy, Inergy GP, LLC and Inergy Sales, as amended (the “Contribution Agreement”). Prior to the Acquisition Date, Inergy Propane transferred its interest in certain subsidiaries, as well as all of its rights and interests in the assets and properties of its wholesale propane supply, marketing and distribution business, and its rights and interest in the assets and properties of its west coast natural gas liquids business, to Inergy. These assets were not included as part of the Inergy Propane business at the time of the transfer of the membership interests in Inergy Propane to the Partnership and were not part of the Inergy Propane Acquisition. The results of operations of Inergy Propane are included in the Partnership’s results of operations beginning on the Acquisition Date. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Partnership agreed to issue $600,000 in new Common Units in the aggregate to Inergy and Inergy Sales (the “Equity Consideration”). In accordance with the Contribution Agreement, the number of Common Units issued to Inergy and Inergy Sales in the aggregate was determined by dividing $600,000 by the average of the high and low sales prices of the Partnership’s Common Units for the twenty consecutive trading days ending on the day prior to the execution of the Contribution Agreement, which was determined to be $43.1885, resulting in 13,892,587 Common Units. Also pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiary Suburban Energy Finance Corp. commenced an offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offers”) any and all of the outstanding unsecured 7% senior notes due 2018 and 6.875% senior notes due 2021 issued by Inergy and Inergy Finance Corp., which had an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $1,200,000 (collectively, the “Inergy Notes”), for a combination of $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of new unsecured 7.5% senior notes due 2018 and 7.375% senior notes due 2021 (collectively, the “SPH Notes”) issued by the Partnership and Suburban Energy Finance Corp. and up to $200,000 in cash to tendering noteholders (the “Exchange Offer Cash Consideration”). Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Partnership was required to pay Inergy the difference, if any, between $200,000 and the actual Exchange Offer Cash Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offers (such payment, the “Inergy Cash Consideration”). The Contribution Agreement provided that the Partnership would offer $65,000 in aggregate cash consent payments in connection with the Exchange Offers and that Inergy would pay $36,500 to the Partnership in cash on the Acquisition Date. The Exchange Offers expired and settled on August 1, 2012 (the “Settlement Date”). On the Settlement Date, the Partnership had received tenders and consents from holders representing approximately 98.09% of the total outstanding principal amount of the 2018 Inergy Notes, and tenders and consents from holders representing approximately 99.74% of the total outstanding principal amount of the 2021 Inergy Notes. Based on the results of the Exchange Offers, the Exchange Offer Cash Consideration due to tendering Inergy noteholders was $184,761. The Inergy Cash Consideration was satisfied by the issuance of 307,835 Common Units to Inergy and therefore, when combined with the Equity Consideration, the Partnership issued 14,200,422 Common Units in the aggregate to Inergy and Inergy Sales on August 1, 2012. Inergy distributed 14,058,418 of such Common Units to its unitholders on September 14, 2012. On April 25, 2012, the Partnership received consents from the requisite lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 8) to enable it to incur additional indebtedness, make amendments to the Amended Credit Agreement to adjust certain covenants, and otherwise perform our obligations as contemplated by the Inergy Propane Acquisition. On August 1, 2012, the Operating Partnership executed an amendment to the Amended Credit Agreement to, among other things, provide for (i) a $250,000 senior secured 364-day incremental term loan facility (the “364-Day Facility”) and (ii) an increase in our revolving credit facility under the Amended Credit Agreement from $250,000 to $400,000. On the Acquisition Date, the Operating Partnership drew $225,000 on the 364-Day Facility, which, together with cash received from Inergy (pursuant to the Contribution Agreement) and cash on hand, was used to pay: (i) the consent fees and the Exchange Offer Cash Consideration, (ii) costs and fees related to the Exchange Offers, and (iii) costs and expenses related to the Inergy Propane Acquisition. On August 14, 2012 the Partnership repaid its borrowings of $225,000 under its 364-Day Facility with the proceeds from a public sale of 6,300,000 Common Units that closed on that date. The fair value of the purchase price for Inergy Propane as determined on the Acquisition Date was $1,890,915, consisting of: (i) $1,075,043 of newly issued senior notes (with an aggregate par value of $1,000,000) and $184,761 in cash to tendering Inergy noteholders pursuant to the Exchange Offers; (ii) $65,000 in cash paid to the Inergy noteholders for the consent payments pursuant to the consent solicitations; (iii) $590,027 of new Suburban Common Units (consisting of 14,200,422 Common Units), which were issued to Inergy and Inergy Sales, all but $5,942 (consisting of 142,004 Common Units) of which were subsequently distributed by Inergy to its unitholders; reduced by (iv) $23,916 of cash received from Inergy pursuant to the Contribution Agreement (the cash consideration from Inergy includes the $36,500 discussed above and is net of amounts owed to Inergy by the Partnership at the Acquisition Date). The fair value of the newly issued senior notes was determined using Level 2 inputs and the fair value of the equity issued to Inergy and Inergy Sales was determined using Level 1 inputs. During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, the Partnership finalized the third party valuations of the Acquisition Date fair value of certain assets acquired in the Inergy Propane Acquisition, principally property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets. The consolidated balance sheets since September 29, 2012 reflect the final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination. The table provides the final purchase price allocation:
Assets acquired: |  |  |  |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 7,964 |
Accounts receivable |  |  | 36,076 |
Inventories |  |  | 30,457 |
Other current assets |  |  | 2,067 |
Current assets acquired |  |  | 76,564 |
Property, plant & equipment |  |  | 617,854 |
Customer relationships (estimated useful life of 9 years) |  |  | 445,500 |
Non-compete agreements (estimated useful life of 6 years) |  |  | 23,059 |
Other intangible assets (estimated useful life of 4 years) |  |  | 1,983 |
Goodwill |  |  | 809,778 |
Other assets |  |  | 2,151 |
Total assets acquired |  | $ | 1,976,889 |
Liabilities assumed: |  |  |  |
Accounts payable |  | $ | 16 |
Accrued employment and benefit costs |  |  | 2,149 |
Customer deposits and advances |  |  | 48,469 |
Other current liabilities |  |  | 18,613 |
Other noncurrent liabilities |  |  | 16,727 |
Total liabilities assumed |  |  | 85,974 |
Total |  | $ | 1,890,915 |
The final purchase price allocation resulted in the following adjustments to the provisional fair value estimates: property, plant and equipment decreased $33,302, intangible assets (principally customer relationships) increased $39,583, other current assets decreased $765 and other noncurrent liabilities increased $646. The net effect of these adjustments resulted in a $4,870 decrease to goodwill as of the Acquisition Date. As a result, results of operations for fiscal 2012 have been revised for a $205 decrease to depreciation expense and a $1,449 increase to amortization expense. The following presents unaudited pro forma combined financial information as if the Inergy Propane Acquisition had occurred on September 25, 2011, the first day of the Partnership’s 2012 fiscal year, as adjusted for the final purchase price allocation. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information was prepared under the assumption that the net proceeds from the issuance of the 6,300,000 Common Units on August 14, 2012 were used to fund the portion of the Inergy Propane Acquisition that was originally financed through the 364-Day Facility (which was repaid two weeks after the Acquisition Date). As a result, the Common Units were assumed to have been issued on September 30, 2011, and, in turn, the pro forma results for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2012 do not include any interest costs associated with the 364-Day Facility.
|  | Year Ended September 29, 2012 |
Revenues |  | $ | 1,842,698 |
Net income |  | $ | 12,824 |
Income per common unit |  |  |  |
Basic |  | $ | 0.23 |
Diluted |  | $ | 0.23 |
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the Inergy Propane Acquisition occurred on the date indicated nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results.
