Note 3. ACQUISITIONS

 

Acquisition of Assets from CSS

On November 9, 2022, we closed on the acquisition of assets from CSS for a purchase price of $27.5 million plus working capital. The assets consisted of wholesale fuel supply contracts to 38 dealer owned locations, 35 sub-wholesaler accounts and two commission locations (1 fee based and 1 lease). We funded this acquisition through borrowings on the CAPL Credit Facility and cash on hand.

 

We recorded the purchase as summarized in the table below (in thousands):

The fair value of inventory was estimated at retail selling price less estimated costs to sell and a reasonable profit allowance for the selling effort.

The fair value of land was based on a market approach. The value of buildings and equipment was based on a cost approach. The buildings and equipment are being depreciated on a straight-line basis, with estimated remaining useful lives of 20 years for the buildings and five to 30 years for equipment.

The fair value of the wholesale fuel distribution rights and supply contracts included in intangible assets was based on an income approach. Management believes the level and timing of cash flows represent relevant market participant assumptions. The wholesale fuel distribution rights are being amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 10 years. The wholesale fuel supply contracts are being amortized on an accelerated basis over an estimated useful life of 10 years.

Aggregate incremental revenues since the closing of the acquisition included in CrossAmerica's consolidated statement of income were $25.2 million for 2022.

Acquisition of Assets from 7-Eleven

On April 28, 2021, certain newly formed subsidiaries of CrossAmerica, including Joe’s Kwik Marts (collectively, “Buyer”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with 7-Eleven, Inc., a Texas corporation (“7-Eleven”), pursuant to which Buyer agreed to purchase certain assets related to the ownership and operations of 106 company operated sites (90 fee; 16 leased) located in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the U.S. (collectively, the “Properties”) for an aggregate purchase price of $263.0 million, excluding working capital and subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement. The assets sold by 7-Eleven were part of a divestiture process in connection with its previously announced acquisition of the Speedway business from Marathon Petroleum Corporation.

 

The assets purchased by Buyer include real property and leasehold rights to the Properties, and all inventory and other assets located at the Properties, other than specifically excluded assets, such as rights to intellectual property or rights with respect to “7-Eleven” or “Speedway” branding. Substantially all of the sites purchased were operated under the Speedway brand, and all sites were rebranded in connection with the closing of such site pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement. Buyer also assumed certain specified liabilities associated with the assets.

 

Starting in late June 2021, Buyer closed on the acquisition of the Properties on a rolling basis of generally ten sites per week. Through December 31, 2021, Buyer consummated the closing under the Asset Purchase Agreement of 103 Properties for a purchase price of $273.0 million, including inventory and other working capital.

 

In February 2022, we closed on the final three properties of our 106-site acquisition from 7-Eleven for a purchase price of $3.6 million, including inventory and other working capital, of which $1.8 million will be paid on or prior to February 8, 2027. During 2022, we recorded the purchase of these three properties and adjustments to our previous purchase accounting for the first 103 properties as summarized in the table below (in thousands):

The fair value of the wholesale fuel distribution rights included in intangible assets was based on an income approach.

The wholesale fuel distribution rights are being amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of approximately 10 years.

The fair value of goodwill represents expected synergies from combining operations, intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, and other factors. All goodwill is anticipated to be deductible for tax purposes.

Prior Year Acquisitions

We completed six tranches of the asset exchange with Circle K on May 21, 2019, September 5, 2019, February 25, 2020, April 7, 2020, May 5, 2020 and September 15, 2020. With the closing of the sixth tranche, the transactions contemplated under the Asset Exchange Agreement we entered into with Circle K on December 17, 2018 (“Asset Exchange Agreement”) were concluded. Through these transactions, we acquired 191 sites in exchange for the real property at 56 sites as well as 17 sites previously owned and operated by the Partnership. Although we no longer collect rent from the sites divested in these transactions, we continue to distribute fuel to them on a wholesale basis.

Effective March 25, 2020, we closed on the CST Fuel Supply Exchange. Through this transaction, we acquired 33 sites, wholesale fuel supply to 331 additional sites and $14.1 million in proceeds in exchange for our investment in CST Fuel Supply.

On April 14, 2020, we closed on the acquisition of retail and wholesale assets. Through these transactions, we expanded the retail operations of the Partnership by 169 sites (154 company operated sites and 15 commission sites) through a combination of (1) entering into new leasing arrangements with related parties as the lessee for 62 sites and (2) terminating contracts where we were previously the lessor and fuel supplier under dealer arrangements for 107 sites that then became company operated sites. As a result of closing on these transactions, we expanded our wholesale fuel distribution by 110 sites, including 53 third-party wholesale dealer contracts, and supply of the 62 newly leased sites.
