For the three months ended February 28, 2018

Freight derivatives and related misstatements
(a) The correction of freight derivatives and related misstatements resulted in a $22.5 million reduction of income before income taxes and a $22.6 million reduction of net income. These adjustments related to a $22.5 million increase of cost of goods sold and a $0.1 million increase of income tax expense related to the tax effect of the freight derivatives and related misstatements.

Intercompany misstatements
(b) The correction of intercompany misstatements had no impact on income (loss) before income taxes or net income (loss); however, the correction resulted in a $161.5 million increase of both revenues and cost of goods sold due to different practices of eliminating intercompany sales between CHS businesses that existed in previous periods.

Other misstatements
(c) The correction of other misstatements resulted in a $15.3 million increase of income before income taxes and a $21.9 million increase of net income. The $15.3 million increase of income before income taxes relates primarily to a $13.7 million decrease of cost of goods sold arising from the use of a unit of measure assumption in the calculation of an excise tax credit that was changed during fiscal 2018. The remaining increase relates to a $1.6 million decrease of cost of goods sold as a result of the valuation of crack spread derivatives. In addition to the increase of income before income taxes, an income tax benefit of $6.6 million was recorded to adjust for the impact of other identified misstatements, as well as income tax items that had previously been identified and recorded as out of period adjustments in subsequent periods.

Additionally, certain misclassification and offsetting adjustments were made between line items included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, primarily due to the application of differing accounting policies between businesses. These misclassification adjustments resulted in a $27.7 million decrease of revenues and cost of goods sold.

For the six months ended February 28, 2018

Freight derivatives and related misstatements
(a) The correction of freight derivatives and related misstatements resulted in a $23.0 million reduction of income before income taxes and a $23.8 million reduction of net income. These adjustments related to a $23.0 million increase of cost of goods sold and a $0.8 million increase of income tax expense related to the tax effect of the freight derivatives and related misstatements.

Intercompany misstatements
(b) The correction of intercompany misstatements had no impact on income (loss) before income taxes or net income (loss); however, the correction resulted in a $150.2 million increase of both revenues and cost of goods sold due to different practices of eliminating intercompany sales between CHS businesses that existed in previous periods.

Other misstatements
(c) The correction of other misstatements resulted in a $24.1 million increase of income before income taxes and a $30.7 million increase of net income. The $24.1 million increase of income before income taxes relates primarily to a $13.7 million decrease of cost of goods sold that arose from a unit of measure assumption in the calculation of an excise tax credit that was changed during fiscal 2018. The remaining increase relates to a $7.9 million decrease of cost of goods sold related to the valuation of crack spread derivatives and a $2.6 million increase to expense related to postretirement benefit plan activity that resulted from a timing difference associated with the recording of certain benefit plan expenses (included in cost of goods sold and marketing, general and administrative expenses). In addition to the increase of income before income taxes, an income tax benefit of $6.6 million was recorded to adjust for the impact of other identified misstatements, as well as income tax items that had previously been identified and recorded as out of period adjustments in subsequent periods.

Additionally, certain misclassification and offsetting adjustments were made between line items included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, primarily due to the application of differing accounting policies between businesses. These misclassification adjustments resulted in a $33.4 million decrease of revenues and cost of goods sold.

Freight derivatives and related misstatements
(a) The correction of freight derivatives and related misstatements resulted in a $23.8 million reduction of net income for the six months ended February 28, 2018. Refer to descriptions of the adjustments and their impact on net income (loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations section for the three and six months ended February 28, 2018, above. The impact of the adjustments to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 31, 2017, and February 28, 2018, resulted in certain misclassifications of less than $13.0 million between operating activity line items in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows; however, none of the freight derivatives and related misstatements impacted the classifications between operating, investing or financing activities.

Intercompany misstatements
(b) The correction of intercompany misstatements did not impact net income for the six months ended February 28, 2018; however, the impact of adjustments to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 31, 2017, and February 28, 2018, resulted in certain misclassification adjustments of less than $6.0 million between line items in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. None of the intercompany misstatements impacted the classifications between operating, investing or financing activities within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
    
Other misstatements
(c) The correction of other misstatements resulted in a $30.7 million increase of net income for the six months ended February 28, 2018. Refer to further details of the adjustments and their impact on net income (loss) in the Consolidated Statement of Operations section for the three and six months ended February 28, 2018, above. The impact of the adjustments to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 31, 2017, and February 28, 2018, resulted in certain misclassification adjustments between line items in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As a result, two misclassification adjustments were made between operating and financing activities, including a $3.1 million reduction of notes payable resulting from a duplicative entry and the misclassification of $6.0 million of cash associated with a timing difference for the application of in-transit cash. In addition, various misclassification adjustments were made between operating activity lines, the most significant of which related to (1) a $24.1 million decrease of inventory and increase in accounts receivable as of August 31, 2017, due to a timing difference related to the settlement of a single ocean vessel and (2) the $21.2 million net impact associated with the decrease of inventory and increase of accounts payable that resulted from the misclassification adjustment for certain items previously included within a contra-inventory account to accounts payable as of August 31, 2017, and February 28, 2018.
