Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1.	Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United Refining Company and its subsidiaries, United Refining Company of Pennsylvania and its subsidiaries, United Biofuels, Inc. and Kiantone Pipeline Corporation (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company is a petroleum refiner and marketer in its primary market area of Western New York and Northwestern Pennsylvania. Operations are organized into two business segments: wholesale and retail.

The wholesale segment is responsible for the acquisition of crude oil, petroleum refining, supplying petroleum products to the retail segment and the marketing of petroleum products to wholesale and industrial customers. The retail segment operates a network of Company operated retail units under the Red Apple Food Mart^® and Country Fair^® brand names selling petroleum products under the Kwik Fill^®, Citgo^® and Keystone^® brand names, as well as convenience and grocery items.

The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Refining, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Acquisition Corp., which in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Red Apple Group, Inc. (the “Parent”).

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending August 31, 2014. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013.

2.	Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined under the Last-in, First-out (LIFO) method for crude oil and petroleum product inventories and the First-in, First-out (FIFO) method for merchandise. Supply inventories are stated at either the lower of cost or market or replacement cost and include various parts for the refinery operations.

Inventories consist of the following:

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements that constitute “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward looking statements may include, among other things, United Refining Company and its subsidiaries current expectations with respect to future operating results, future performance of its refinery and retail operations, capital expenditures and other financial items. Words such as “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “projects”, “believes”, “estimates”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “shall”, “anticipates”, “predicts”, and similar expressions typically identify such forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

By their nature, all forward looking statements involve risk and uncertainties. All phases of the Company’s operations involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of the Company’s control, and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and whether the forward looking statements ultimately prove to be correct. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward looking statements for a number of reasons.

Although we believe our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge, investors and prospective investors are cautioned that such statements are only projections and that actual events or results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors described in greater detail in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K, current reports on Form 8-K, etc. In addition to the factors discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s actual consolidated quarterly or annual operating results have been affected in the past, or could be affected in the future, by additional factors, including, without limitation:

•

the demand for and supply of crude oil and refined products;

•

the spread between market prices for refined products and market prices for crude oil;

•

repayment of debt;

•

general economic, business and market conditions;

•

risks and uncertainties with respect to the actions of actual or potential competitive suppliers of refined petroleum products in our markets;

•

the possibility of inefficiencies or shutdowns in refinery operations or pipelines;

•

the availability and cost of financing to us;

•

environmental, tax and tobacco legislation or regulation;

•

volatility of gasoline prices, margins and supplies;

•

merchandising margins;

•

labor costs;

•

level of capital expenditures;

•

customer traffic;

•

weather conditions;

•

acts of terrorism and war;

•

business strategies;

•

expansion and growth of operations;

•

future projects and investments;

•

future exposure to currency devaluations or exchange rate fluctuations;

•

expected outcomes of legal and administrative proceedings and their expected effects on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows; and

•

future operating results and financial condition.

All subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing. We undertake no obligation to update any information contained herein or to publicly release the results of any revisions to any such forward looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances that occur, or which we become aware of, after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Recent Developments

Our scheduled maintenance turnaround for the refinery was successfully completed during the third fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2014. A refinery turnaround generally occurs every three to five years, during which time units are shut down for internal inspection and repair. The scheduled maintenance turnarounds result in an inventory build of petroleum products to meet minimum sales demand during the maintenance shutdown period. Our turnaround lasted approximately 33 days. This affected refinery production and runs resulting in crude throughput for the quarter averaging 39.7 thousand barrels per day (bpd) versus crude throughput averaging 61.9 bpd for the same period a year ago.

The Company continues to be impacted by the volatility in petroleum markets in fiscal 2014. The lagged 3-2-1 crackspread is measured by the difference between the prices of crude oil contracts traded on the NYMEX for the preceding month to the prices of NYMEX gasoline and heating oil contracts in the current trading month. The Company uses a lagged crackspread as a margin indicator as it reflects the margin during the time period between the purchase of crude oil and its delivery to the refinery for processing. The lagged crackspread for the third quarter of fiscal 2014 was $23.24. Through June 27, 2014 the indicated lagged crackspread for the fourth quarter ending August 31, 2014 was $23.75, a $.51 increase from the average for the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

Results of Operations

The wholesale segment is responsible for the acquisition of crude oil, petroleum refining, supplying petroleum products to the retail segment and the marketing of petroleum products to wholesale and industrial customers. The retail segment sells petroleum products under the Kwik Fill^®, Citgo^® and Keystone^® brand names through a network of Company-operated retail units and convenience and grocery items through Company-owned gasoline stations and convenience stores under the Red Apple Food Mart^® and Country Fair^® brand names.

A discussion and analysis of the factors contributing to the Company’s results of operations are presented below. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes, together with the following information, are intended to supply investors with a reasonable basis for evaluating the Company’s operations, but does not serve to predict the Company’s future performance.

Comparison of Fiscal Quarters Ended May 31, 2014 and 2013

A scheduled maintenance turnaround for the refinery was successfully completed during the third fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2014 for approximately 33 days. This affected refinery production and runs resulting in crude throughput for the quarter averaging 39.7 bpd versus crude throughput averaging 61.9 bpd for the same comparable period in fiscal 2013.

Net Sales

Wholesale sales decreased during the three months ended May 31, 2014 by $99.1 million or 22.2% from the comparable period in fiscal 2013 from $446.8 million to $347.7 million. The decrease was due to a 25.0% decrease in wholesale volumes offset by a 3.8% increase in wholesale prices. The decrease in sales volume was the result of reducing incremental sales volume during the turnaround.

Costs of Goods Sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization and losses on derivative contracts)

Wholesale costs of goods sold decreased during the three months ended May 31, 2014 by $28.5 million or 8.0% from the comparable period in fiscal 2013 from $354.8 million to $326.3 million. The decrease in wholesale costs of goods sold during this period was primarily due to a decrease in cost and volume of raw materials.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Wholesale SG&A expenses remained relatively constant during the three months ended May 31, 2014 and fiscal 2013.

Comparison of Nine Months Ended May 31, 2014 and 2013

Net Sales

Wholesale sales decreased during the nine months ended May 31, 2014 by $234.8 million or 16.3% from the comparable period in fiscal 2013 from $1,441.4 million to $1,206.6 million. The decrease was due to a 2.8% decrease in wholesale prices and 13.9% decrease in wholesale volume.

Costs of Goods Sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization and losses on derivative contracts)

Wholesale costs of goods sold decreased during the nine months ended May 31, 2014 by $47.3 million or 4.3% for the comparable period in fiscal 2013 from $1,096.5 million to $1,049.2 million. The decrease in wholesale costs of goods sold was primarily due to a decrease in the cost and volume of raw materials.

Losses on Derivative Contracts

For the nine months ended May 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized $0 and $2.3 million of losses in its Consolidated Statement of Operations, respectively. There has been no such activity in fiscal 2014. All derivatives were settled by December 31, 2012.

Wholesale SG&A expenses remained relatively constant during the nine months ended May 31, 2014 and fiscal 2013.

Consolidated Expenses:

Interest Expense, net

Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) decreased during the three months ended May 31, 2014 by $3.3 million for the comparable period for fiscal 2013 from $9.9 million to $6.6 million. The decrease was due to the partial redemption in August 2013 of $127.8 million of 10.500% First Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (“Senior Notes”).

Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) decreased during the nine months ended May 31, 2014 by $9.3 million for the comparable period for fiscal 2013 from $29.0 million to $19.7 million. The decrease was due to the partial redemption in August 2013 of $127.8 million of Senior Notes.

Income Tax Expense

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months and nine months ended May 31, 2014 and 2013 remained approximately 39%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We operate in an environment where our liquidity and capital resources are impacted by changes in the price of crude oil and refined petroleum products, availability of credit, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors beyond our control. Included in such factors are, among others, the level of customer product demand, weather conditions, governmental regulations, worldwide political conditions and overall market and economic conditions.

The following table summarizes selected measures of liquidity and capital sources (in thousands):


	May 31, 2014
Cash and cash equivalents	$	46,033
Working capital	$	349,425
Current ratio		4.0
Debt	$	239,697

Primary sources of liquidity have been cash and cash equivalents, and borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility (the “Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, N.A. as Administrator (the “Agent Bank”). We believe available capital resources are adequate to meet our working capital, debt service, and capital expenditure requirements for existing operations.

Our cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances and investments in money market funds. These investments have staggered maturity dates, none of which exceed three months. They have a high degree of liquidity since the securities are traded in public markets.

Significant Uses of Cash

The changes in cash for the nine months ended May 31, 2014 are described below.

The cash used in working capital is shown below:


	Nine Months Ended May 31, 2014
	(in millions)
Cash used in working capital items:
Refundable income tax decrease	$	20.9
Accounts receivable decrease		17.2
Accounts payable increase		11.1
Accrued liabilities increase		6.0
Sales, use and fuel taxes payable increase		4.4
Amounts due from affiliated companies, net		.4
Inventory increase		(117.3	)
Prepaid expense increase		(15.0	)
Income taxes payable decrease		(8.6	)
Prepaid income taxes increase		(6.5	)

Total change	$	(87.4	)

The decrease of available cash on hand of $112.5 million includes $1.4 million of net cash received from capital lease proceeds. Other cash uses included:

•

Fund operating activities used in working capital items of $87.4 million

•

Fund capital expenditures and deferred turnaround costs of $68.8 million

•

Distribution to parent under tax sharing agreement of $2.6 million

•

Dividends to preferred stockholder and common stockholder of $35.2 million

•

Scheduled long-term debt repayments of $1.5 million

We require a substantial investment in working capital which is susceptible to large variations during the year resulting from purchases of inventory and seasonal demands. Inventory purchasing activity is a function of sales activity and turnaround cycles for the different refinery units.

Maintenance and non-discretionary capital expenditures have averaged approximately $6.0 million annually over the last three years for the refining and marketing operations. Management does not foresee any increase in these maintenance and non-discretionary capital expenditures during fiscal year 2014 at this time.

Future liquidity, both short and long-term, will continue to be primarily dependent on realizing a refinery margin sufficient to cover fixed and variable expenses, including planned capital expenditures. We expect to be able to meet our working capital, capital expenditure, contractual obligations, letter of credit and debt service requirements out of cash flow from operations, cash on hand and borrowings under our Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility of $175,000,000. This provides the Company with flexibility relative to its cash flow requirements in light of market fluctuations, particularly involving crude oil prices and seasonal business cycles and will assist the Company in meeting its working capital, ongoing capital expenditure needs and for general corporate purposes. The agreement expires on May 18, 2016. Under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility, the applicable margin is calculated on the average unused availability as follows: (a) for base rate borrowing, at the greater of the Agent Bank’s prime rate or the Federal Funds Open Rate plus 1.5%; or the Daily LIBOR rate plus 3%; plus an applicable margin of 0% to .5%; (b) for euro-rate based borrowings, at the LIBOR Rate plus an applicable margin of 2.75% to 3.25%. The Agent Bank’s prime rate at May 31, 2014 was 3.25%.

The Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility is secured primarily by certain cash accounts, accounts receivable and inventory. Until maturity, we may borrow on a borrowing base formula as set forth in the facility. We had standby letters of credit of $8.8 million as of May 31, 2014 and there were no outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility resulting in net availability of $166.2 million. As of July 15, 2014, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility and there were standby letters of credit in the amount of $8.8 million, resulting in a net availability of $166.2 million and the Company had full access to it. The Company’s working capital ratio was 4.0 as of May 31, 2014.

Although we are not aware of any pending circumstances which would change our expectation, changes in the tax laws, the imposition of and changes in federal and state clean air and clean fuel requirements and other changes in environmental laws and regulations may also increase future capital expenditure levels. Future capital expenditures are also subject to business conditions affecting the industry. We continue to investigate strategic acquisitions and capital improvements to our existing facilities.

Federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment affect nearly all of our operations. As is the case with all the companies engaged in similar industries, we face significant exposure from actual or potential claims and lawsuits involving environmental matters. Future expenditures related to environmental matters cannot be reasonably quantified in many circumstances due to the uncertainties as to required remediation methods and related clean-up cost estimates. We cannot predict what additional environmental legislation or regulations will be enacted or become effective in the future or how existing or future laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted with respect to products or activities to which they have not been previously applied.

Seasonal Factors

Seasonal factors affecting the Company’s business may cause variation in the prices and margins of some of the Company’s products. For example, demand for gasoline tends to be highest in spring and summer months, while demand for home heating oil and kerosene tends to be highest in winter months.

As a result, the margin on gasoline prices versus crude oil costs generally tends to increase in the spring and summer, while margins on home heating oil and kerosene tend to increase in the winter.

Inflation

The effect of inflation on the Company has not been significant during the last five fiscal years.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

The Company uses its Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility to finance a portion of its operations. This on-balance sheet financial instrument, to the extent it provides for variable rates, exposes the Company to interest rate risk resulting from changes in the Agent Bank’s Prime rate, the Federal Funds or LIBOR rate. As of July 15, 2014, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility.

From time to time, the Company uses derivatives to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in crude oil purchase costs and refining margins. Derivative products, specifically crude oil option contracts and crack spread option contracts are used to hedge the volatility of these items. The Company accounts for changes in the fair value of its contracts by marking them to market and recognizing any resulting gains or losses in its Consolidated Statement of Operations. There has been no derivative activity in fiscal 2014.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2014. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2014, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
