Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Financial Instruments and Risk Management | 13. Financial Instruments and Risk Management Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash. The Partnership considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash was included within other current assets (or other assets, as applicable) and is a function of the Green Bonds; refer also to Note 10 (“Long-Term Borrowings”). The balance classified as short-term included accounts for which the cash will be used within one year and are related to interest payments as well as operating and maintenance activities for the RNG facility in Arizona. The balance classified as long-term represented cash held in a debt service fund for future debt repayments on the Green Bonds for the RNG facility in Arizona for which the first debt redemption payment is due on October 1, 2028. Refer to Note 6, “Selected Balance Sheet Information” for a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Partnership measures the fair value of its exchange-traded commodity-related options and futures contracts using Level 1 inputs, the fair value of its commodity-related swap contracts and interest rate swaps using Level 2 inputs and the fair value of its over-the-counter commodity-related options contracts using Level 3 inputs. The Partnership’s over-the-counter options contracts are valued based on an internal option model. The inputs utilized in the model are based on publicly available information, as well as broker quotes. The following summarizes the fair value of the Partnership’s derivative instruments and their location in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and September 24, 2022, respectively:

The Partnership had $-0- posted cash collateral as of September 30, 2023 and September 24, 2022, respectively, with its brokers for outstanding commodity-related derivatives. Concentrations. The Partnership’s principal customers are residential and commercial end users of propane and fuel oil and refined fuels served by approximately 700 locations in 42 states. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of revenues during fiscal 2023, 2022 or 2021 and no concentration of receivables exists as of September 30, 2023 or September 24, 2022. During fiscal 2023, Crestwood Equity Partners L.P. and Targa Liquids Marketing, provided approximately 30% and 16% of the Partnership’s total propane purchases, respectively. No other single supplier accounted for more than 10% of the Partnership’s propane purchases in fiscal 2023. The Partnership believes that, if supplies from any of these suppliers were interrupted, it would be able to secure adequate propane supplies from other sources without a material disruption of its operations. Credit Risk. Exchange-traded futures and options contracts are traded on and guaranteed by the NYMEX and as a result, have minimal credit risk. Futures contracts traded with brokers of the NYMEX require daily cash settlements in margin accounts. The Partnership is subject to credit risk with over-the-counter swaps and options contracts entered into with various third parties to the extent the counterparties do not perform. The Partnership evaluates the financial condition of each counterparty with which it conducts business and establishes credit limits to reduce exposure to credit risk based on non-performance. The Partnership does not require collateral to support the contracts. Bank Debt, Senior Notes and Green Bonds. The fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility approximates the carrying value since the interest rates are adjusted quarterly to reflect market conditions. Based upon quoted market prices, the fair value of the Partnership’s 2027 Senior Notes and 2031 Senior Notes was $334,250 and $541,658, respectively, as of September 30, 2023. The fair value of the Green Bonds is based upon a valuation model (a Level 3 input), which was $63,031 as of September 30, 2023.
