    Our derivative instruments primarily consist of commodity and
    freight futures and forward contracts and, to a minor degree,
    may include foreign currency and interest rate swap contracts.
    These contracts are economic hedges of risk, but are not
    designated or accounted for as hedging instruments for
    accounting purposes with the exception of some derivative
    instruments included in our Energy segment as well as some
    interest rate swap contracts. Derivative instruments are
    recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair values as
    discussed in Note&#160;12, Fair Value Measurements.

    Certain financial contracts within our Energy segment were
    entered into for both the spread between heavy and light crude
    oil purchase prices, as well as the spread between crude oil
    purchase prices and gas and distillate selling prices, and have
    been designated and accounted for as hedging instruments (cash
    flow hedges). The unrealized gains or losses on these contracts
    are deferred to accumulated other comprehensive loss in the
    equity section of our Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be
    included in earnings upon settlement under the terms of the
    contracts.

    cash collateral under the same master netting arrangement, we
    have not elected to net our margin deposits.

    During our third quarter of 2011, we entered into interest rate
    swaps and treasury lock derivative agreements to secure the
    interest rates related to a portion of our private placement
    debt issued on June&#160;9, 2011, further discussed in
    Note&#160;7, Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt. These derivative
    instruments were designated as cash flow hedges for accounting
    purposes and, accordingly, the net loss on settlements of
    $6.3&#160;million was recorded as a component of other
    comprehensive loss in May 2011 and will be amortized into

    In our Energy segment, major maintenance activities
    (turnarounds) at our two refineries are accounted for under the
    deferral method. Turnarounds are the scheduled and required
    shutdowns of refinery processing units. The costs related to the
    significant overhaul and refurbishment activities include
    materials and direct labor costs. The costs of turnarounds are
    deferred when incurred and amortized on a straight-line basis
    over the period of time estimated to lapse until the next
    turnaround occurs, which is generally 2-4&#160;years. The
    amortization expense related to turnaround costs are included in
    cost of goods sold in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
    The selection of the deferral method, as opposed to expensing
    the turnaround costs when incurred, results in deferring
    recognition of the turnaround expenditures. The deferral method
    also results in the classification of the related cash flows as
    investing activities in our Consolidated Statements of Cash
    Flows, whereas expensing these costs as incurred, would result
    in classifying the cash outflows as operating activities.

    Expenditures for major repairs related to refinery turnarounds
    during the nine months ended May&#160;31, 2011 and 2010, were
    $88.0&#160;million and $5.1&#160;million, respectively. Both our
    Laurel, Montana refinery and the NCRA refinery in McPherson,

    Cofina Financial evaluates the collectability of both commercial
    and producer notes on a specific identification basis, based on
    the amount and quality of the collateral obtained, and records
    specific loan loss reserves when appropriate. A general reserve
    is also maintained based on historical loss experience and
    various qualitative factors. In total, our specific and general
    loan loss reserves related to Cofina Financial are not material
    to our consolidated financial statements, nor are the historical
    write-offs. The accrual of interest income is discontinued at
    the time the loan is 90&#160;days past due unless the credit is
    well-collateralized and in process of collection. The amount of
    Cofina Financial notes that were past due was not significant at
    any reporting date presented.

    On May&#160;6, 2011 we sold our 45% ownership interest in
    Multigrain AG (Multigrain) to one of our joint venture partners,
    Mitsui&#160;&#038; Co., Ltd., for $225.0&#160;million. Our Ag
    Business segment recognized a pre-tax gain of
    $119.7&#160;million from the sale in the third quarter of fiscal
    2011. Related to this transaction, during our second quarter of
    fiscal 2011, we reduced a valuation allowance related to the
    carryforward of certain capital losses that we now believe will
    be utilized. The capital loss carryforwards expire on
    August&#160;31, 2014, by $24.6&#160;million.

    We have a 50% ownership interest in Agriliance LLC (Agriliance),
    included in Corporate and Other, and account for our investment
    using the equity method. Prior to September&#160;1, 2007,
    Agriliance was a wholesale and retail crop nutrients and crop
    protection products company. In September 2007, Agriliance
    distributed the assets of the crop nutrients business to us, and
    the assets of the crop protection business to Land O&#146;Lakes,
    Inc., our joint venture partner. Agriliance has sold its retail
    operating facilities to various third parties, as well as to us
    and to Land O&#146;Lakes, and continues to exist as a
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">50-50</FONT> joint
    venture as the company winds down its business activity and
    primarily holds long-term liabilities. During the nine months
    ended May&#160;31, 2011 and 2010, we received $28.0&#160;million
    and $105.0&#160;million, respectively, in cash distributions
    from Agriliance as a return of capital, primarily from the sale
    of Agriliance retail facilities and the collection of

    Related to the Agri Point Ltd. (Agri Point) acquisition, further
    discussed in Note&#160;12, we signed a term loan agreement with
    the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the
    proceeds of which were to be used solely to finance up to
    one-half of the purchase price of the shares of stock of Agri
    Point. In March 2011, we received a draw of $31.9&#160;million
    under the agreement. The loan is for a term of seven years and
    bears interest at a variable rate based on the three-month LIBOR
    plus 2.1%. We have the option to fix the interest for periods of
    no less than one year on any interest payment date. We also
    signed a three-year revolving agreement for up to
    $40.0&#160;million to be used for up to 35% of the working
    capital needs of the Agri Point operations. We have the right to
    increase the capacity under the revolving credit agreement to
    $120.0&#160;million. Draws under the revolving credit agreement
    bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR plus 1.25%, and

    In June 2011, we entered into a private placement with certain
    accredited investors for long-term debt in the amount of
    $500.0&#160;million, which was layered into four series. The
    first series of $130.0&#160;million has an interest rate of

    $160.0&#160;million has an interest rate of 4.52% and is due in
    June 2021. The third series of $130.0&#160;million has an

    series of $80.0&#160;million has an interest rate of 4.82% and

    We have aligned our segments based on an assessment of how our
    businesses are managed and operated, as well as the products and
    services they sell. During our second quarter of fiscal 2011,
    there were several changes in our senior leadership team which
    resulted in the realignment of our segments. One of these
    changes is that we no longer have a chief operating officer of
    Processing, resulting in a change in the way we manage our
    business and the elimination of that segment. The revenues
    previously reported in our Processing segment were entirely from
    our oilseed processing operations and, since those operations
    have grain-based commodity inputs and similar commodity risk
    management requirements as other operations in our Ag Business
    segment, we have included oilseed processing in that segment.
    Our wheat milling and packaged food operations previously
    included in our Processing segment are now included in Corporate
    and Other, as those businesses are conducted through
    non-consolidated joint ventures. In addition, our
    non-consolidated agronomy joint venture is winding down its
    business activity and is included in Corporate and Other, rather
    than in our Ag Business segment, where it was previously
    reported. There was no change to our Energy segment. For
    comparative purposes, segment information for the three and nine
    month periods ended May&#160;31, 2010, have been retrospectively
    revised to reflect these changes. This revision had no impact on
    consolidated net income or net income attributable to CHS Inc.

    Many of our business activities are highly seasonal and
    operating results will vary throughout the year. Historically,
    our income is generally lowest during the second fiscal quarter
    and highest during the third fiscal quarter. For example, in our
    Ag Business segment, agronomy and country operations businesses
    experience higher volumes and income during the spring planting
    season and in the fall, which corresponds to harvest. Also in
    our Ag Business segment, our grain marketing operations are
    subject to fluctuations in volumes and earnings based on
    producer harvests, world grain prices and demand. Our Energy
    segment generally experiences higher volumes and profitability
    in certain operating areas, such as refined products, in the
    summer and early fall when gasoline and diesel fuel usage is
    highest and is subject to global supply and demand forces. Other
    energy products, such as propane, may experience higher volumes
    and profitability during the winter heating and crop drying
    seasons.

    Our revenues, assets and cash flows can be significantly
    affected by global market prices for commodities such as
    petroleum products, natural gas, grains, oilseeds, crop
    nutrients and flour. Changes in market prices for commodities
    that we purchase without a corresponding change in the selling
    prices of those products can affect revenues and operating
    earnings. Commodity prices are affected by a wide range of
    factors beyond our control, including the weather, crop damage
    due to disease or insects, drought, the availability and
    adequacy of supply, government regulations and policies, world
    events, and general political and economic conditions.

    While our revenues and operating results are derived from
    businesses and operations which are wholly-owned and
    majority-owned, a portion of our business operations are
    conducted through companies in which we hold ownership interests
    of 50% or less and do not control the operations. We account for
    these investments primarily using the equity method of
    accounting, wherein we record our proportionate share of income
    or loss reported by the entity as equity income from
    investments, without consolidating the revenues and expenses of
    the entity in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In our
    Ag Business segment, this principally includes our 50% ownership
    in TEMCO, LLC (TEMCO). In Corporate and Other, these investments
    principally include our 50% ownership in Ventura Foods, LLC
    (Ventura Foods) and Agriliance, LLC (Agriliance), as well as our
    24% ownership in Horizon Milling, LLC (Horizon Milling) and
    Horizon Milling G.P.

    The following table presents assets and liabilities included in
    our Consolidated Balance Sheets that are recognized at fair
    value on a recurring basis, and indicates the fair value
    hierarchy utilized to determine such fair value. As required by
    accounting standards, assets and liabilities are classified, in
    their entirety, based on the lowest level of input that is a
    significant component of the fair value measurement. The lowest
    level of input is considered Level&#160;3. Our assessment of the
    significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement
    requires judgment, and may affect the classification of fair
    value assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy
    levels. Fair value measurements at May&#160;31, 2011,
    August&#160;31, 2010 and May&#160;31, 2010 were as follows:

    Business acquisitions during the nine months ended May&#160;31,
    2011 resulted in fair value measurements that are not on a
    recurring basis. In January 2011, our wholly owned subsidiary,
    CHS Europe, S.A., purchased all of the outstanding shares of
    stock of Agri Point Ltd. (Agri Point), a Cyprus company, for
    $62.4&#160;million, net of cash acquired. The fair market value
    of net assets acquired was $66.8&#160;million and was determined
    by market valuation reports using Level&#160;3 inputs. The
    transaction resulted in a bargain purchase gain of
    $4.4&#160;million, primarily due to market conditions. The
    $4.4&#160;million gain was recorded in Marketing, general, and
    administrative in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for
    the three and nine months ending May&#160;31, 2011. Proforma
    results of operations are not presented due to materiality. The
    acquisition is included in our Ag Business segment, and was
    completed with the purpose of expanding our global grain
    origination. Agri Point and its subsidiaries operate in the
    countries of Romania, Hungary and Bulgaria, with a deep water
    port facility in Constanza, Romania, a barge loading facility on
    the Danube River in Romania and an inland grain terminal in
    Hungary. Values assigned to the net assets acquired were:

    We have aligned our segments based on an assessment of how our
    businesses operate and the products and services they sell.
    During our second quarter of fiscal 2011, there were several
    changes in our senior leadership team which resulted in the
    realignment of our segments based on an assessment of how our
    businesses operate and the products and services they sell. One
    of these changes is that we no longer have a chief operating
    officer of Processing, resulting in the elimination of that
    segment. The revenues previously reported in our Processing
    segment were entirely from our oilseed processing operations
    and, those operations have grain-based commodity inputs and
    similar commodity risk management requirements and are managed
    along with other operations in our Ag Business segment.
    Accordingly, we have included oilseed processing in that
    segment. Our wheat milling and packaged food operations
    previously included in our Processing segment are now included
    in Corporate and Other, as those businesses are conducted
    through non-consolidated joint ventures. In addition, our
    non-consolidated agronomy joint venture is winding down its
    business activity and is included in Corporate and Other, rather
    than in our Ag Business segment, where it was previously
    reported. There was no change to our Energy segment. For
    comparative purposes, segment information for the three and nine
    month periods ended May&#160;31, 2010, have been retrospectively
    revised to reflect these changes. This revision had no impact on
    consolidated net income or net income attributable to CHS Inc.

    Many of our business activities are highly seasonal and
    operating results vary throughout the year. Our income is
    generally lowest during the second fiscal quarter and highest
    during the third fiscal quarter. For example, in our Ag Business
    segment, our retail agronomy, crop nutrients and country
    operations businesses generally experience higher volumes and
    income during the spring planting season and in the fall, which
    corresponds to harvest. Our grain marketing operations are also
    subject to fluctuations in volume and earnings based on producer
    harvests, world grain prices and demand. Our Energy segment
    generally experiences higher volumes and profitability in
    certain operating areas, such as refined products, in the summer
    and early fall when gasoline and diesel fuel usage is highest
    and is subject to global supply and demand forces. Other energy
    products, such as propane, may experience higher volumes and

    Our Energy segment revenues of $7.7&#160;billion, after
    elimination of intersegment revenues, increased by
    $1.5&#160;billion (24%) during the nine months ended
    May&#160;31, 2011 compared to the nine months ended May&#160;31,
    2010. During the nine months ended May&#160;31, 2011 and 2010,
    our Energy segment recorded revenues from sales to our Ag
    Business segment of $264.6&#160;million and $221.7&#160;million,
    respectively. The net increase in revenues of $1.5&#160;billion
    is comprised of a net increase of $1.7&#160;billion related to
    higher prices, partially offset by $238.4&#160;million related
    to a net decrease in sales volume. Refined fuels revenues
    increased $1.1&#160;billion (26%), of which $1.4&#160;billion
    was related to a net average selling price increase, partially
    offset by $224.1&#160;million, which was attributable to
    decreased volumes, compared to the same period in the previous
    year. The sales price of refined fuels increased $0.69 per
    gallon (33%), while volumes decreased 5%. The volume decrease
    was mainly from the reduced volumes to the minority owners of
    NCRA due to NCRA&#146;s required major maintenance, in addition
    to the impact of the global economy with less transport diesel
    usage, when comparing the nine months ended May&#160;31, 2011
    with the same period a year ago. Propane revenues decreased
    $12.4&#160;million (2%), of which $97.9&#160;million was due to
    a decrease in volume, partially offset by $85.6&#160;million
    related to an increase in the net average selling price, when
    compared to the same period in the previous year. The average
    selling price of propane increased $0.18 per gallon (16%), while
    sales volume decreased 15% in comparison to the same period of
    the prior year. The decrease in propane volumes primarily
    reflects decreased demand, primarily from a greatly reduced crop
    drying season in the fall of fiscal 2011 as compared to the fall
    of fiscal 2010. Renewable fuels marketing revenues increased
    $307.0&#160;million (38%), primarily from an increase in the
    average selling price of $0.62 per gallon (34%), coupled with a
    3% increase in volumes, when compared with the same nine-month
    period in the previous year.

    increased per unit costs for refined fuels products.
    Specifically, refined fuels cost of goods sold increased
    $808.5&#160;million (19%) which reflects an increase in the

    refinery and 85,000&#160;barrels of crude oil per day at
    NCRA&#146;s McPherson, Kansas refinery. The average cost
    increase is primarily related to higher input costs at our two
    crude oil refineries and higher average prices on the refined
    products that we purchased for resale compared to the nine
    months ended May&#160;31, 2010. The aggregate average per unit

    committed line of credit is a $1.3&#160;billion,
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">364-day</FONT>
    revolving facility that expires in November 2011. The

    revolving facility had $340.0&#160;million outstanding on

    $700&#160;million revolving facility that we terminated in
    November 2010. The major financial covenants for both revolving
    facilities require us to maintain a minimum consolidated net
    worth, adjusted as defined in the credit agreements, of
    $2.5&#160;billion and a consolidated funded debt to consolidated
    cash flow ratio of no greater than 3.00 to 1.00. The term
    consolidated cash flow is principally our earnings before
    interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) with
    adjustments as defined in the credit agreements. A third
    financial ratio does not allow our adjusted consolidated funded
    debt to adjusted consolidated equity to exceed .80 to 1.00 at

    We finance our working capital needs through short-term lines of
    credit with a syndication of domestic and international banks.
    On May&#160;31, 2011, we had two primary committed lines of
    credit. One of these lines of credit is a $900.0&#160;million
    committed five-year revolving facility that we entered into in
    June 2010, which expires in June 2015. In November 2010, we
    terminated our $700.0&#160;million revolving facility that had a
    May 2011 expiration date and entered into a new
    $1.3&#160;billion committed

    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">364-day</FONT>
    revolving facility in the amount of $40.0&#160;million committed

    In accordance with the bylaws and by action of the Board of
    Directors, annual net earnings from patronage sources are
    distributed to consenting patrons following the close of each
    fiscal year. Patronage refunds are calculated based on amounts
    using financial statement earnings. The cash portion of the
    patronage distribution is determined annually by the Board of
    Directors, with the balance issued in the form of capital equity
    certificates. Consenting patrons have agreed to take both the
    cash and the capital equity certificate portion allocated to
    them from our previous fiscal year&#146;s income into their
    taxable income, and as a result, we are allowed a deduction from
    our taxable income for both the cash distribution and the
    allocated capital equity certificates as long as the cash
    distribution is at least 20% of the total patronage
    distribution. The patronage earnings from the fiscal year ended
    August&#160;31, 2010, were distributed during the nine months
    ended May&#160;31, 2011. The cash portion of this distribution,
    deemed by the Board of Directors to be 35%, was
    $141.5&#160;million. During the nine months ended May&#160;31,
    2010, we distributed cash patronage of $153.9&#160;million.

    Redemptions of capital equity certificates, approved by the
    Board of Directors, are divided into two pools, one for
    non-individuals (primarily member cooperatives) who may
    participate in an annual pro-rata program for equities held by
    them, and another for individuals who are eligible for equity
    redemptions at age&#160;70 or upon death. The amount that each
    non-individual receives under the pro-rata program in any year
    is determined by multiplying the dollars available for pro-rata
    redemptions, if any that year, as determined by the Board of
    Directors, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount
    of patronage certificates eligible for redemption held by them,
    and the denominator of which is the sum of the patronage
    certificates eligible for redemption held by all eligible
    holders of patronage certificates that are not individuals. In
    accordance with authorization from the Board of Directors, we
    expect total redemptions related to the year ended
    August&#160;31, 2010, that will be distributed in cash in fiscal
    2011, to be approximately $67.6&#160;million, of which
    $56.6&#160;million was redeemed in cash during the nine months
    ended May&#160;31, 2011, compared to $17.0&#160;million
    distributed in cash during the nine months ended May&#160;31,
    2010. We also redeemed $36.7 million of capital equity
    certificates during the nine months ended May 31, 2010, by
    issuing shares of our 8% Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock
    (Preferred Stock) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form
    S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
