CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.    DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND OTHER DISCLOSURES

CST’s Merger Agreement

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Circle K Stores Inc. will, through its acquisition of CST, control CST’s interest in the General Partner and CST’s 19.6% limited partner interest in CrossAmerica as well as all of the IDRs. The transaction is subject to the approval of CST’s stockholders on November 16, 2016 and the receipt of regulatory approvals in the United States and Canada. The transaction is currently expected to close early calendar year 2017.

Description of Business

Our business consists of:

• the wholesale distribution of motor fuels;

• the retail distribution of motor fuels to end customers at sites operated by commission agents or us;

• the owning or leasing of sites used in the retail distribution of motor fuels and, in turn, generating rental income from the lease or sublease of the sites; and

• the operation of convenience stores.

The financial statements reflect the consolidated results of the Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Our primary operations are conducted by the following consolidated wholly owned subsidiaries:

• LGW, which distributes motor fuels on a wholesale basis and generates qualified income under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;

• LGPR, which functions as our real estate holding company and holds the assets that generate rental income that is qualifying under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and

• LGWS, which owns and leases (or leases and sub-leases) real estate and personal property used in the retail distribution of motor fuels, as well as provides maintenance and other services to its customers. In addition, LGWS distributes motor fuels on a retail basis and sells convenience merchandise items to end customers at company-operated retail sites and sells motor fuel on a retail basis at sites operated by commission agents. Income from LGWS generally is not qualifying income under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code.

CST owns 100% of the membership interest in the General Partner of the Partnership and 100% of our IDRs. The General Partner manages our operations and business activities. The General Partner is managed and operated by the executive officers of the General Partner, under the oversight of the Board. As a result of its ownership of all of the membership interests in the General Partner, CST has the right to appoint all members of the Board and therefore controls our operations even though CST does not own a majority of our common units.

As part of our business strategy with CST, we intend, when favorable market conditions exist and pending approval by the General Partner’s independent conflicts committee and the approval of the executive committee of the Board of Directors of CST and mutual agreement upon terms and other conditions, to purchase equity interests at fair market value in CST Fuel Supply, over time. As of September 30, 2016, our total equity interest in CST Fuel Supply was 17.5%. See Note 10 for discussion of the July 2016 refund of a portion of the purchase price paid in 2015 by the Partnership to CST Fuel Supply associated with the reduction in wholesale distribution volume resulting from CST’s sale of its California and Wyoming assets.

Additionally, we have previously issued common units as consideration in the purchase of equity interests in CST Fuel Supply and the real property associated with some of CST’s NTI convenience stores. We have previously issued, and may continue to issue, common units as payment for charges incurred under the Amended Omnibus Agreement. Pursuant to a unit purchase program announced in September 2015, CST has also acquired our common units through open market purchases. Through September 30, 2016, after giving effect to these transactions, CST owned 19.6% of our limited partner interests.

Interim Financial Statements

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and the Exchange Act. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments

CROSSAMERICA PARTNERS LP

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless disclosed otherwise. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to keep the information presented from being misleading. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K. Financial information as of September 30, 2016 and for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 included in the consolidated financial statements has been derived from our unaudited financial statements. Financial information as of December 31, 2015 has been derived from our audited financial statements and notes thereto as of that date.

Operating results for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. Our business exhibits seasonality due to our wholesale and retail sites being located in certain geographic areas that are affected by seasonal weather and temperature trends and associated changes in retail customer activity during different seasons. Historically, sales volumes have been highest in the second and third quarters (during the summer activity months) and lowest during the winter months in the first and fourth quarters.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation, as discussed further in Note 16. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income or total equity.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results and outcomes could differ from those estimates and assumptions. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances could result in revised estimates and assumptions.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies described in our Form 10-K.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842). This standard modifies existing guidance for reporting organizations that enter into leases to increase transparency by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09—Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This standard is issued as part of a simplification initiative involving several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. The approach to adoption is dependent upon which amendments are applicable. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15—Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This standard provides additional guidance on the classification of eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

Certain other new financial accounting pronouncements have become effective for our financial statements but the adoption of these pronouncements will not affect our financial position or results of operations, nor will they require any additional disclosures.

Concentration Risk

For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we distributed approximately 16% and 17% of our total wholesale distribution volumes to DMS and DMS accounted for approximately 25% and 27% of our rental income, respectively. For more information regarding transactions with DMS, see Note 10 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

CROSSAMERICA PARTNERS LP

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Valero supplied substantially all of the motor fuel purchased by CST Fuel Supply during all periods presented. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, CST Fuel Supply purchased approximately 0.5 billion and 1.4 billion gallons, respectively, of motor fuel from Valero.

For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we distributed 8% of our total wholesale distribution volume to CST convenience stores that are not supplied by CST Fuel Supply and received 21% and 22% of our rental income from CST, respectively.

For the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we received 10% of our rental income from a third party dealer that operates certain of the sites acquired through the PMI and One Stop acquisitions.

Note 2. ACQUISITIONS

Acquisition of State Oil Assets

On September 27, 2016, we closed on the acquisition of 57 controlled sites (56 fee sites and 1 leased site) and certain other assets of State Oil Company, being operated as 55 lessee dealer accounts and 2 non-fuel tenant locations, as well as 25 independent dealer accounts located in the greater Chicago market for approximately $41.8 million, including working capital.

The preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the date of acquisition were as follows (in thousands):

Current assets (excluding inventories)	$	914
Inventories	150
Property and equipment	35,291
Intangibles	6,530
Other noncurrent assets	2,720
Current liabilities	(1,261		)
Asset retirement obligations	(1,897		)
Other long-term liabilities	(623		)
Total consideration, net of cash acquired	$	41,824

The $3.4 million fair value of the notes receivable, which is included within current and other noncurrent assets, was based on an income approach using relevant market participant assumptions.

The fair value of property and equipment, which consisted of land, 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 5 to 10 years for equipment.

The $4.9 million fair value of the wholesale fuel distribution rights included in intangibles was based on an income approach and 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 approximately 10 years.

The $1.6 million fair value of the wholesale fuel supply agreements was based on an income approach, and management believes the level and timing of cash flows represent relevant market participant assumptions. The wholesale fuel supply agreements are being amortized over an estimated useful life of approximately 10 years.

Management is reviewing the valuation and confirming the result to determine the final purchase price allocation.

Acquisition of Franchised Holiday Stores

On March 29, 2016, we closed on the acquisition of 31 franchised Holiday stores and 3 liquor stores from S/S/G Corporation for approximately $52.4 million, including working capital. Of the 34 stores, 31 are located in Wisconsin and 3 are located in Minnesota. The acquisition was funded by borrowings under our credit facility.

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 property and equipment, which consisted of land, 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 5 to 10 years for equipment.

The $6.5 million fair value of the wholesale fuel distribution rights included in intangibles was based on an income approach and 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 approximately 10 years.

The $1.0 million fair value of the discount related to lease agreements with below average market value was based on an income approach, and management believes the level and timing of cash flows represent relevant market participant assumptions. These intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective lease agreements, with an estimated weighted average useful life of 5 years.

Goodwill recorded is primarily attributable to the end-customer relationships not eligible for recognition as an intangible asset. Of the goodwill recorded, $1.8 million was assigned to the Wholesale segment and $7.3 million was assigned to the Retail segment. Goodwill deductible for tax purposes amounted to $29.0 million.

Operating revenues since the date of acquisition were $28.8 million and $57.5 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, respectively.

Management is reviewing the valuation and confirming the result to determine the final purchase price allocation.

Finalization of Purchase Accounting associated with the Erickson Acquisition

In the first quarter of 2016, we recorded a $1.1 million receivable related to a working capital settlement as agreed to with the sellers, reducing net consideration and resulting goodwill. We finalized the purchase accounting for this acquisition with the receivable related to the working capital settlement being the only adjustment recorded in 2016.

Purchase of Wholesale Fuel Supply Contracts from CST

In February 2016, we purchased 21 independent dealer contracts and 11 subwholesaler contracts from CST for $2.9 million. This transaction was approved on behalf of the Partnership by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST.

Balance at September 30, 2016	$	68,609	$	20,500		$	89,109

Our business model includes the conversion of retail sites from company-operated sites to dealer-operated sites. As a result of these conversions, there is a reduction in future cash flows in the Retail segment and an expected increase in future cash flows that will be received by the Wholesale segment subsequent to the date of conversion. The effect of these conversions, for the period ended September 30, 2016, is a $5.3 million reassignment of goodwill originally assigned to the Retail segment to the Wholesale segment.

2017	57
2018	765
2019	454,500
Total	$	455,336

Our $550 million revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets. Letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 totaled $4.3 million and $16.0 million, respectively. The amount of availability at September 30, 2016 under the revolving credit facility, after taking into account debt covenant constraints, was $57.0 million. In connection with future acquisitions, the revolving credit facility requires, among other things, that we have, after giving effect to such acquisition, at least $20.0 million, in the aggregate, of borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility and unrestricted cash on the balance sheet on the date of such acquisition.

Renegotiation of Rocky Top Purchase Obligation

In connection with the Rocky Top acquisition completed in September 2013, we entered into a deferred seller financing arrangement, which obligated us to purchase certain sites over a 5-year period for an average of $5.2 million per year beginning in 2016 at an approximately 7.7% capitalization rate. In June 2016, we renegotiated the terms with the sellers, eliminating the deferred seller financing obligation and agreeing to terms of a new lease of the assets for an initial term of 15 years and 8 months with four renewal options of five years each. Under this triple net lease, annual rent is initially $1.8 million based on a 6.5% capitalization rate and increases 1.5% per year. However, because of the continuing involvement we have with the sites through the lease and sublease of the properties, we recorded the liability on our balance sheet at fair value on the date of the reclassification, which approximated its carrying value. During the second quarter of 2016, we reclassified the liability from debt and capital lease obligations to accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Financial Covenants and Interest Rate

Our revolving credit facility contains financial covenants consisting of a total leverage ratio (as defined in the credit facility) for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters of less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit facility) of greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2016, we were in compliance with these covenants. The total leverage ratio covenant is 5.00 to 1.00 for the two quarters following a material acquisition (as defined in the credit facility). As such, the total leverage ratio steps down to 4.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2016 assuming there are no material acquisitions for the remainder of 2016.

Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the LIBOR plus a margin of 3.00%. Our borrowings had an interest rate of 3.52% as of September 30, 2016.

Note 10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Transactions with CST

Fuel Sales and Rental Income

We sell wholesale motor fuel under a master fuel distribution agreement to 43 CST convenience stores and lease real property on 74 retail sites to CST under a master lease agreement each having initial 10-year terms. The fuel distribution agreement provides us with a fixed wholesale mark-up per gallon. The master lease agreement is a triple net lease.

Revenues from wholesale fuel sales and real property rental income from CST were as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015
Revenues from motor fuel sales to CST	$	31,738	$	37,242	$	87,819	$	106,916
Rental income from CST	$	4,207	$	4,317	$	12,841	$	7,104

Receivables from CST were $3.0 million and $2.3 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, related to these transactions.

CST Fuel Supply Equity Interests

CST Fuel Supply provides wholesale motor fuel distribution to the majority of CST’s U.S. Retail convenience stores on a fixed markup per gallon. We owned a 17.5% total interest in CST Fuel Supply at September 30, 2016 and 2015. We account for the income derived from our equity interest of CST Fuel Supply as “Income from CST Fuel Supply equity” on our statement of operations, which amounted to $4.0 million and $4.2 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $12.3 million and $6.5 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Purchase of Wholesale Fuel Supply Contracts from CST

In February 2016, we purchased 21 independent dealer contracts and 11 subwholesaler contracts from CST for $2.9 million with historic annual volumes of approximately 20 million gallons. This transaction was approved on our behalf by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST. Since this was a transaction between entities under common control, the $2.9 million purchase price was accounted for as a distribution recorded in partners’ capital.

We purchase the fuel supplied to these 32 sites from CST Fuel Supply, of which we own a 17.5% interest, and resell the wholesale motor fuel to the independent dealers and subwholesalers. We purchased $5.7 million and $14.7 million of motor fuel from CST Fuel Supply for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, respectively, in connection with these 32 sites.

Refund payment related to CST sale of California and Wyoming Assets

In July 2016, CST provided a refund payment to us related to our 17.5% interest in CST Fuel Supply resulting from the sale by CST of 79 retail sites in California and Wyoming to 7-Eleven, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, SEI Fuel Services, Inc., to which CST Fuel Supply no longer supplies motor fuel. The purpose of the refund payment was to make us whole for the decrease in the value of our interest in CST Fuel Supply arising from sales volume decreases. The total refund payment received by the Partnership, as approved by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST, was approximately $18.2 million ($17.5 million in cash with the remainder in CrossAmerica common units owned by CST) and was accounted for as a contribution to equity.

IDR and Common Unit Distributions

We distributed $2.5 million to CST related to its ownership of our IDRs and $11.5 million related to its ownership of our common units during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. CST received cash distributions of $0.8 million related to its investment in our IDRs and $4.6 million related to its ownership of our common units during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015.

Revenues from rental income from Topstar was $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, and $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

We lease real estate from certain entities affiliated with Joseph V. Topper, Jr. Rent expense paid to these entities was $0.2 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $0.6 million and $0.7 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Amended Omnibus Agreement and Management Fees

We incurred $3.9 million and $3.6 million in charges for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $12.1 million and $10.7 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, including incentive compensation costs and non-cash stock-based compensation expense under the Amended Omnibus Agreement, which are recorded as a component of operating expenses and general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations. Effective January 1, 2016, the fixed billing component of the management fee under the Amended Omnibus Agreement was increased to $856,000 per month, which was approved on our behalf by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST. CST and the Partnership have the right to negotiate the amount of the management fee on an annual basis, or more often as circumstances require. Amounts payable to CST related to these transactions were $8.3 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. See Note 13 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the settlement of amounts due under the Amended Omnibus Agreement that were settled in our common units.

Maintenance and Environmental Costs

Certain maintenance and environmental monitoring and remediation activities are performed by a related party of Joseph V. Topper, Jr. as approved by the independent conflicts committee of the Board. We incurred charges with this related party of $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $1.2 million and $1.1 million in charges with this related party for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Aircraft Usage Costs

From time to time, we lease, on a non-exclusive basis, aircraft owned by a group of individuals that includes Joseph V. Topper, Jr. and John B. Reilly, III, members of our Board, as previously approved in August 2013 by the independent conflicts committee of the Board. Lease costs incurred by us for use of these aircraft were insignificant for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015.

Principal Executive Offices

The principal executive offices of the Partnership are in Allentown, Pennsylvania in an office space leased by CST from a related party of Joseph V. Topper, Jr. and John B. Reilly, III. Rent expense charged by CST to the Partnership was $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Note 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation Matters

We are from time to time party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract and/or property damages, environmental damages, employment-related claims and damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief. With respect to all such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, we record a reserve when it is probable

CROSSAMERICA PARTNERS LP

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, we disclose matters for which management believes a material loss is at least reasonably possible. None of these proceedings, separately or in the aggregate, are expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In all instances, management has assessed the matter based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, giving due consideration to the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. Management’s judgment may prove materially inaccurate, and such judgment is made subject to the known uncertainties of litigation.

We are a co-defendant, together with our General Partner, CST and CST Services LLC, in a lawsuit brought by Charles Nifong, a former employee of CST Services LLC who previously provided services to the Partnership as Chief Investment Officer and Vice President of Finance (Court of Common Pleas,  Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, case number 2015-1003). On February 16, 2016 the United States District Court Eastern District of Pennsylvania (Allentown) remanded the case to the Court of Common Pleas, Lehigh County. The plaintiff alleges breach of contract and associated claims relating to his termination of employment and claimed severance benefits under the Partnership’s Executive Income Continuity Plan (the “EICP”) totaling approximately $1.6 million.  We intend to contest the action vigorously. Under the EICP, we are obligated to pay reasonable legal expenses incurred by the plaintiff in connection with this dispute whether we are successful in our defense or not.

Environmental Matters

Environmental liabilities related to the sites contributed to the Partnership in connection with our IPO have not been assigned to us, and are still the responsibility of the Predecessor Entity. Under the Amended Omnibus Agreement, the Predecessor Entity must indemnify us for any costs or expenses that it incurs for environmental liabilities and third-party claims, regardless of when a claim is made, that are based on environmental conditions in existence prior to the closing of the IPO for contributed sites. The Predecessor Entity’s environmental liabilities and indemnification assets associated with contributed sites amounted to $6.5 million and $4.8 million at September 30, 2016 and $7.0 million and $5.0 million at December 31, 2015, respectively.

Note 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

General

We measure and report certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). U.S. GAAP specifies a three-level hierarchy that is used when measuring and disclosing fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices available in active markets (i.e., observable inputs) and the lowest priority to data lacking transparency (i.e., unobservable inputs). An instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. The following is a description of the three hierarchy levels.

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Active markets are considered to be those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2—Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs are not corroborated by market data. This category is comprised of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is estimated based on internally developed models or methodologies using significant inputs that are generally less readily observable from objective sources.

Transfers into or out of any hierarchy level are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which the transfers occurred. There were no transfers between any levels in 2016 or 2015.

As further discussed in Note 14 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, we have accrued for unvested phantom units and vested and unvested profits interests as a liability and adjust that liability on a recurring basis based on the market price of our common units each balance sheet date. Such fair value measurements are deemed Level 1 measurements.

Financial Instruments

The fair value of our accounts receivable, notes receivable, and accounts payable approximated their carrying values as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the revolving credit facility approximated its carrying values of $454.5 million as of September 30, 2016 and $358.4 million as of December 31,

CROSSAMERICA PARTNERS LP

2015, due to the frequency with which interest rates are reset and the consistency of the market spread. The fair value of debt, classified as a Level 2 measurement, was estimated using an income approach by discounting future cash flows at estimated current cost of funding rates.

Note 13. PARTNERS’ CAPITAL

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, on February 25, 2016, the first business day after the payment of the fourth quarter of 2015 distribution of $0.5925 per unit, the subordination period under the Partnership Agreement ended. At that time, each of the 7,525,000 outstanding subordinated units converted into one common unit and now participate in distributions pro rata with other common units.

For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we issued 1,150 and 95,751 common units (net of units withheld for income taxes) as a result of the vesting of phantom units and conversion of profit interests previously issued primarily to CST employees who provide services principally to the Partnership. See Note 14 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Common Units Issued to CST as Consideration for Amounts Due Under the Terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement

As approved by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and the executive committee of CST’s board of directors, the Partnership and CST mutually agreed to settle, from time to time, the amounts due under the terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement in newly issued common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership. We issued the following common units to CST as consideration for amounts due under the terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement:

Period	Date of Issuance	Number of Units Issued
Quarter ended December 31, 2015	March 31, 2016	145,137
Quarter ended March 31, 2016	May 9, 2016	83,218
Quarter ended June 30, 2016	August 2, 2016	101,087
Quarter ended September 30, 2016	October 27, 2016	110,824

Common Unit Repurchase Program

In November 2015, the Board approved a common unit repurchase program under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act authorizing us to repurchase up to an aggregate of $25.0 million of the common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership. Under the program, we may make purchases in the open market in accordance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act or otherwise. Any purchases will be funded from available cash on hand. The common unit repurchase program does not require us to acquire any specific number of common units and may be suspended or terminated by us at any time without prior notice. The purchases will not be made from any officer, director or control person of the Partnership or CST. The following table shows the purchases during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016:

Period	Total Number of Units Purchased	Average Price Paid per Unit		Total Cost of Units Purchased		Amount Remaining under the Program

CST Purchases of CrossAmerica Common Units

On September 21, 2015, CST announced that the independent executive committee of its Board of Directors approved a unit purchase program under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, authorizing CST to purchase up to an aggregate of $50 million of the common units representing limited partner interests in CrossAmerica. The unit purchase program does not have a fixed expiration date and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at CST’s discretion.

CST made no purchases under the unit purchase program during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. From inception until September 30, 2016, CST had purchased $19.8 million, or 804,667 common units, at an average price of $24.64 per common unit,

On October 24, 2016, the Board approved a quarterly distribution of $0.6075 per unit attributable to the third quarter of 2016. The distribution is payable on November 15, 2016 to all unitholders of record on November 4, 2016.

Distributions to CST as holder of the IDRs were $0.9 million and $2.5 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, respectively and $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015. Payments on the IDRs increased due to an increase in the distribution paid per unit and an increase in the number of units outstanding on which the distribution is based.

Note 14. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

Overview

We record equity-based compensation as a component of general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations. Compensation expense was $0.7 million and $0.4 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, and $2.6 million and $3.8 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Partnership Equity-Based Awards

We grant Partnership equity-based awards to certain employees of CST who perform services for the Partnership pursuant to the Amended Omnibus Agreement. As these grants may be settled in cash, the equity-based awards receive fair value variable accounting treatment. As such, they are measured at fair value at each balance sheet reporting date and the cumulative compensation

cost recognized is classified as a liability, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The balance of the accrual at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 totaled $1.5 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

CST Awards

In addition to Partnership equity-based awards previously discussed, CST also granted equity-based awards of approximately 102,000 and 155,000 for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which were granted to certain employees of CST for services rendered on behalf of the Partnership. Expense associated with these awards that was charged to us under the Amended Omnibus Agreement was $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $1.3 million and $2.0 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Awards to Members of the Board

In December 2015, the Partnership issued 11,476 non-vested phantom units to non-employee directors of the Board as a portion of director compensation. Such awards vest in December 2016.

The liability for these awards at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The associated compensation expense was not significant for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015.

Note 15. NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNER UNIT

A subsidiary of CST, as the holder of our IDRs, has a contractual interest in distributions from the Partnership that are increasing percentages starting at 15% of quarterly distributions out of the operating surplus (as defined in our Partnership Agreement) in excess of $0.5031 per limited partner unit.

In addition to the common units, we have identified the IDRs as participating securities and compute income per unit using the two-class method under which any excess of distributions declared over net income shall be allocated to the partners based on their respective sharing of income as specified in the Partnership Agreement. Net income per unit applicable to limited partners (including common and subordinated unitholders) is computed by dividing the limited partners’ interest in net income (loss), after deducting the IDRs, by the weighted-average number of outstanding common units.

(a) Distributions paid per unit were $0.6025 and $0.5625 during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Distributions paid per unit were $1.7925 and $1.6525 during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

(b) Allocation of distributions in excess of net income is based on a pro rata proportion to the common and subordinated units as outlined in the Partnership Agreement.

Note 16. INCOME TAXES

As a limited partnership, we are not subject to federal and state income taxes, however our corporate subsidiaries are subject to income taxes. Income tax attributable to our taxable income, which may differ significantly from income for financial statement purposes, is assessed at the individual limited partner unit holder level. We are subject to a statutory requirement that non-qualifying income, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, cannot exceed 10% of total gross income for the calendar year. If non-qualifying income exceeds this statutory limit, we would be taxed as a corporation. The non-qualifying income did not exceed the statutory limit in any period presented.

Certain activities that generate non-qualifying income are conducted through LGWS. LGWS is a tax paying corporate subsidiary of ours that is subject to federal and state income taxes. Current and deferred income taxes are recognized on the earnings of LGWS. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted tax rates.

We recorded income tax expense of $1.3 million and $0.9 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and income tax benefits of $0.1 million and $2.7 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, respectively, as a result of earnings generated and losses incurred by its corporate subsidiaries. The effective tax rate differs from the combined federal and state statutory rate because only LGWS is subject to income tax.

The tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 included a $0.1 million increase and a $0.3 million decrease, respectively, in the valuation allowance.

Note 17. SEGMENT REPORTING

We conduct our business in two segments: 1) the Wholesale segment and 2) the Retail segment. The wholesale segment includes the wholesale distribution of motor fuel to the lessee dealer, independent dealer, DMS and CST customer groups. We have exclusive motor fuel distribution contracts with lessee dealers who lease the property from us. We also have exclusive distribution contracts with independent dealers to distribute motor fuel but do not collect rent from the independent dealers. Similar to lessee dealers, we have motor fuel distribution agreements with DMS and CST and collect rent from both. The Retail segment includes the sale of convenience merchandise items, the retail sale of motor fuel at company-operated sites and the retail sale of motor fuel at sites operated by commission agents. A commission agent is a retail site where we retain title to the motor fuel inventory and sell it directly to our end user customers. At commission agent sites, we manage motor fuel inventory pricing and retain the gross profit on motor fuel sales, less a commission to the agent who operates the retail site.

As part of our evaluation of the economic performance of our retail sites, we will from time to time convert company-owned convenience stores from our Retail segment to our lessee dealer customer group in our Wholesale segment. During the first nine months of 2016, we converted 72 company-operated convenience stores from our Retail segment to our lessee dealer customer group in our Wholesale segment. As such, we no longer generate revenues from the retail sale of motor fuel or merchandise at these stores subsequent to the date of conversion and we no longer incur retail operating expenses related to these sites. However, we continue to supply these sites with motor fuel on a wholesale basis pursuant to the fuel supply contract with the lessee dealer. Further, we continue to own/lease the property and earn rental income under lease/sublease agreements with the lessee dealers under triple net leases. The lessee dealer owns all motor fuel and convenience merchandise and retains all gross profit on such operating activities.

Prior to 2016, we netted lease executory costs such as real estate taxes, maintenance, and utilities that we paid and re-billed to customers against rental income on our statement of operations. During the first quarter of 2016, we began accounting for such amounts as rent income and operating expenses and reflected this change in presentation retrospectively. This change resulted in a $2.9 million and $7.9 million increase in rent and other income and operating expenses for the wholesale segment for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, respectively.

Unallocated items consist primarily of general and administrative expenses, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, gains on sales of assets, net, and the elimination of the Retail segment’s intersegment cost of revenues from motor fuel sales against the Wholesale segment’s intersegment revenues from motor fuel sales. The profit in ending inventory generated by the intersegment

The transaction is currently expected to close early calendar year 2017. Refer to CST’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on October 11, 2016.

Significant Factors Affecting our Profitability

The Significance of Crude Oil and Wholesale Motor Fuel Prices on Our Revenues, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Wholesale segment

The prices paid to our motor fuel suppliers for wholesale motor fuel (which affects our cost of sales) are highly correlated to the price of crude oil. The crude oil commodity markets are highly volatile, and the market prices of crude oil, and, correspondingly, the market prices of wholesale motor fuel, experience significant and rapid fluctuations. We receive a fixed mark-up per gallon on approximately 87% of gallons sold to our customers. The remaining gallons are primarily DTW priced contracts with our customers. These contracts provide for variable, market based pricing that results in motor fuel gross profit effects similar to retail motor fuel gross profits (as crude oil prices decline, motor fuel gross profit generally increases, as discussed in our Retail segment below). The increase in DTW gross profit results from the acquisition cost of wholesale motor fuel declining at a faster rate as compared to the rate retail motor fuel prices decline. Alternatively, our DTW motor fuel gross profit declines when the cost of wholesale motor fuel increases at a faster rate as compared to the rate retail motor fuel prices increase.

Regarding our supplier relationships, a majority of our total gallons purchased are subject to discounts for prompt payment and other rebates and incentives, which are recorded within cost of sales. Prompt payment discounts are based on a percentage of the purchase price of motor fuel. As such, the dollar value of these discounts increase and decrease corresponding with motor fuel prices. Therefore, in periods of lower wholesale motor fuel prices, our gross profit is negatively affected and, in periods of higher wholesale motor fuel prices, our gross profit is positively affected (as it relates to these discounts).  Based on our current volumes,

29

we estimate a $10 per barrel change in the price of crude oil would impact our overall annual wholesale motor fuel gross profit by approximately $2.2 million related to these payment discounts.

Retail segment

The prices we pay for wholesale motor fuel are closely correlated to the price of crude oil. The crude oil commodity markets are highly volatile, and the market prices of crude oil and wholesale motor fuel experience significant and rapid fluctuations. We attempt to pass along wholesale motor fuel price changes to our retail customers through “at the pump” retail price changes; however, market conditions do not always allow us to do so immediately. The timing of any related increase or decrease in “at the pump” retail prices is affected by competitive conditions in each geographic market in which we operate. As such, the prices we charge our customers for motor fuel and the gross profit we receive on our motor fuel sales can increase or decrease significantly and rapidly over short periods of time.

Changes in our average motor fuel selling price per gallon and gross margin for the periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 are directly related to the changes in crude oil and wholesale motor fuel prices over the same period. Variations in our reported revenues and cost of sales are, therefore, primarily related to the price of crude oil and wholesale motor fuel prices and generally not as a result of changes in motor fuel sales volumes, unless otherwise indicated and discussed below.

We typically experience lower retail motor fuel gross profits in periods when the wholesale cost of motor fuel increases, and higher retail motor fuel gross profits in periods when the wholesale cost of motor fuel declines rapidly.

Seasonality Effects on Volumes

Our business is subject to seasonality due to our wholesale and retail sites being located in certain geographic areas that are affected by seasonal weather and temperature trends and associated changes in retail customer activity during different seasons. Historically, sales volumes have been highest in the second and third quarters (during the summer months) and lowest during the winter months in the first and fourth quarters.

Impact of Inflation

Inflation affects our financial performance by increasing certain of our operating expenses and cost of goods sold. Operating expenses include labor costs, leases, and general and administrative expenses. While our Wholesale segment benefits from higher terms discount as a result of higher fuel costs, inflation could negatively impact our Retail segment as a result of higher motor fuel, merchandise and operating costs. Although we have historically been able to pass on increased costs through price increases, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future.

Acquisition and Financing Activity

Our results of operations and financial condition are also impacted by our acquisition and financing activities as summarized below.

Three Months EndedSeptember 30,2016 Compared to Three Months EndedSeptember 30,2015

Consolidated Results

Operating revenues declined $139.9 million, or 22%, while gross profit declined $11.8 million, or 23%.

Operating revenues

Significant items impacting these results prior to the elimination of intercompany revenues were:

• A $101.3 million, or 19%, decline in our Wholesale segment revenues primarily attributable to:

◦ A $73.2 million decline attributable to a decrease in the wholesale price of our motor fuel. The average daily spot price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil decreased 4% to $44.85 per barrel in 2016, compared to $46.49 for the same period of the prior year. The wholesale price of motor fuel is highly correlated to the price of crude oil.

◦ A $30.8 million decrease as a result of the divestiture of low margin wholesale fuel supply contracts and other assets acquired in the PMI acquisition, partially offset by the impact of the Franchised Holiday Stores.

◦ Partially offsetting these declines was an increase in other revenue of $2.4 million from an increase in rental income associated with converting company-operated sites to the dealer customer group.

• An $88.7 million, or 42%, decline in our Retail segment revenues primarily attributable to:

◦ A decline of $10.7 million primarily attributable to a decrease in the retail price of our motor fuel driven by a decline in wholesale motor fuel prices as noted above.

◦ A decrease of $57.9 million from a 37% decrease in motor fuel volumes sold related to the conversion of company-operated retail sites to the dealer customer group during 2015 and 2016.

◦ A $20.1 million decrease in our merchandise revenues attributable to the conversion of company-operated retail sites to the dealer customer group during 2015 and 2016.

Intersegment revenues

We present the results of operations of our segments consistently with how our management views the business. Therefore, our segments are presented before intersegment eliminations (which consists of motor fuel sold by our Wholesale segment to our Retail segment). As a result, in order to reconcile to our consolidated change in operating revenues, a discussion of the change in intersegment revenues is included in our consolidated MD&A discussion.

• Our intersegment revenues decreased $50.1 million, primarily attributable to the conversion of company-operated retail sites to the dealer customer group during 2015 and 2016.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales declined $128.0 million, as a result of the decline in the wholesale price and gallons sold of motor fuel as noted above. See “Results of Operations—Segment Results” for additional gross profit analyses.

Income from CST Fuel Supply equity

See “Results of Operations—Segment Results—Wholesale” for discussion.

Operating expenses

See “Results of Operations—Segment Results” for additional operating expenses analyses.

33

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses declined $2.3 million primarily attributable to the integration of prior year acquisitions resulting in the elimination and reduction in duplicative administration costs.

Gain on sales of assets, net

The $1.9 million gain recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2015 was driven by the divestiture of one site as well as the divestiture of certain terminal assets acquired through the PMI acquisition.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased $0.8 million due primarily to the March 2016 borrowing to fund the acquisition of the Franchised Holiday Stores.

Income tax expense/benefit

We recorded income tax expense of $1.3 million and a benefit of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in the provision was primarily due to an increase in income at our corporate subsidiaries.

34

Nine Months EndedSeptember 30,2016 Compared to Nine Months EndedSeptember 30,2015

Consolidated Results

Operating revenues declined$390.1 million, while gross profit declined$13.0 million.

Operating revenues

Significant items impacting these results prior to the elimination of intercompany revenues were:

• A $317.2 million, or 21%, decline in our Wholesale segment revenues primarily attributable to:

◦ A $283.3 million decline attributable to a decrease in the wholesale price of our motor fuel. The average daily spot price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil decreased 19% to $41.35 per barrel during the first nine months 2016, compared to $50.94 for the same period of the prior year. The wholesale price of motor fuel is highly correlated to the price of crude oil.

◦ A $46.7 million decrease as a result of the divestiture of low margin wholesale fuel supply contracts and other assets acquired in the PMI acquisition, partially offset by the impact of the Erickson, One Stop and Franchised Holiday Stores acquisitions.

◦ Partially offsetting this decline was a $12.8 million increase primarily related to rental income associated with the acquisition from CST of NTI convenience stores in July 2015 as well as converting company-operated retail sites to the dealer customer group.

• A $183.8 million, or 34%, decline in our Retail segment revenues primarily attributable to:

◦ A decline of $44.5 million primarily attributable to a decrease in the retail price of our motor fuel driven by a decline in wholesale motor fuel prices as noted above.

◦ A decrease of $111.9 million from a 27% decrease in motor fuel volumes sold related to the conversion of company-operated retail sites to dealer-operated sites during 2015 and 2016.

◦ A $27.4 million decrease in our merchandise revenues attributable to the conversion of company-operated retail sites to the dealer customer group during 2015 and 2016.

Intersegment revenues

We present the results of operations of our segments consistently with how our management views the business. Therefore, our segments are presented before intersegment eliminations (which consists of motor fuel sold by our Wholesale segment to our Retail segment). As a result, in order to reconcile to our consolidated change in operating revenues, a discussion of the change in intersegment revenues is included in our consolidated MD&A discussion.

• Our intersegment revenues decreased $111.0 million, primarily attributable to the conversion of PMI, Erickson and One Stop company-operated sites to dealer-operated sites during 2015 and 2016.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales declined$377.0 million, as a result of the decline in the wholesale price and gallons sold of motor fuel as noted above. See “Results of Operations—Segment Results” for additional gross profit analyses.

Income from CST Fuel Supply equity

See “Results of Operations—Segment Results—Wholesale” for discussion.

Operating expenses

See “Results of Operations—Segment Results” for additional operating expenses analyses.

35

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses declined$8.4 million primarily attributable to a $6.7 million decrease related to the integration of prior year acquisitions.

Depreciation, amortization and accretion expense

Depreciation, amortization and accretion expense increased$4.3 million primarily driven by our 2015 and 2016 acquisitions.

Gain on sales of assets, net

The $2.4 million gain recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was driven by the divestiture of one site as well as certain terminal and transportation assets acquired through the PMI acquisition.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased $2.5 million due to additional borrowings during 2015 and 2016 to fund acquisitions.

Income tax benefit

We recorded income tax expense of $0.9 million and a benefit of $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in tax was primarily due to an increase in income at our corporate subsidiaries. In addition, we recorded a reduction in the valuation allowance of $0.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

(a) Prior to 2016, we netted lease executory costs such as real estate taxes, maintenance, and utilities that we paid and re-billed to customers on our statement of operations. During the first quarter of 2016, we began accounting for such amounts as rent income and operating expenses and reflected this change in presentation retrospectively. This change resulted in a $2.9 million and $7.9 million increase in rent and other income and operating expenses for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015.

(b) Represents income from our equity interest in CST Fuel Supply.

(c) Please see the reconciliation of our segment’s Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net income under the heading “Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

(d) In addition, as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, we distributed motor fuel to 14 sub-wholesalers who distribute to additional sites.

(e) The increase in the independent dealer site count was primarily attributable to 21 independent dealer contracts assigned to us by CST and 25 wholesale fuel supply contracts acquired in the State Oil acquisition, partially offset by 16 terminated motor fuel supply contracts that were not renewed.

(f) The increase in the lessee dealer site count was primarily attributable to converting 79 company-operated convenience stores in our Retail segment to the lessee dealer customer group in our Wholesale segment between September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2016 and the 52 sites acquired in the September 2016 State Oil acquisition.

(g) The decrease in the affiliated dealers site count was primarily due to sites converted to a third party lessee dealer customer group or severed from an affiliated lease.

(h) The decrease in the company-operated retail site count was primarily attributable to 79 company-operated convenience stores being converted to dealer sites between September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2016, partially offset by the 31 Franchised Holiday Stores.

(i) Does not include the motor fuel gallons distributed to sub-wholesalers.

(j) Includes the wholesale gross margin for motor fuel distributed to sub-wholesalers.

38

Three Months EndedSeptember 30,2016 Compared to Three Months EndedSeptember 30,2015

The results were driven by:

Motor Fuel Gross profit

A decline of $2.0 million primarily as a result of a decline in our cent per gallon gross margin as a result of crude oil prices being more volatile during the third quarter of 2015 than the third quarter of 2016 and the resulting impact on our motor fuel gross margin. The daily spot price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil decreased approximately 20% during the third quarter of 2015 compared to approximately 3% during the third quarter of 2016. See “Significant Factors Affecting our Profitability—The Significance of Crude Oil and Wholesale Motor Fuel Prices on Our Revenues, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit.” The remaining decline was primarily a result of fewer motor fuel gallons sold associated with terminating low margin wholesale fuel supply contracts and disposing other assets acquired in the PMI acquisition, partially offset by the impact of the Franchised Holiday Stores.

Rent and other gross profit

Rent and other margin increased $1.6 million primarily as a result of converting company-operated convenience stores to lessee dealer sites.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses declined $0.6 million primarily from disposing of certain transportation and terminal assets acquired in the PMI acquisition.

Nine Months EndedSeptember 30,2016 Compared to Nine Months EndedSeptember 30,2015

The results were driven by:

Motor Fuel Gross profit

The $4.8 million decrease in motor fuel gross profit was due to a $3.8 million decline primarily from decreased payment discounts and incentives due to the decline in motor fuel prices as a result of the decrease in crude oil and the remaining decline was primarily due to motor fuel gallons sold due to the termination of wholesale fuel supply contracts and disposing certain terminal assets acquired in the PMI acquisition, partially offset by the impact of the Erickson, One Stop and Franchised Holiday Stores acquisitions. The average daily spot price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil decreased 19% to $41.35 per barrel during the first nine months 2016, compared to $50.94 for the same period of the prior year. See “Significant Factors Affecting our Profitability—The Significance of Crude Oil and Wholesale Motor Fuel Prices on Our Revenues, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit.”

Rent and other margin

Rent and other margin increased $10.6 million primarily as a result of our acquisition from CST of NTI convenience stores in July 2015, as well as converting company-operated convenience stores to lessee dealer sites.

Income from CST Fuel Supply equity

Income from our investment in CST Fuel Supply increased $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in the prior year, as a result of the additional 12.5% equity interest we acquired in July 2015.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses decreased $2.0 million primarily from disposing of certain transportation and terminal assets acquired in the PMI acquisition, partially offset by an increase in management fees allocated by CST.

Three Months EndedSeptember 30,2016 Compared to Three Months EndedSeptember 30,2015

Gross profit declined $10.3 million, while operating expenses declined $5.5 million.

These results were impacted by:

Gross profit

• Our motor fuel gross profit decreased $5.4 million attributable to a 37% decrease in volume driven by the conversion of sites acquired in prior acquisitions to the lessee dealer customer group during 2015 and 2016 and a 58% decrease in margin per gallon. See “Significant Factors Affecting our Profitability—The Significance of Crude Oil and Wholesale Motor Fuel Prices on Our Revenues, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit.”

• Our merchandise and services gross profit declined $5.0 million as a result of the conversion of company-operated sites to lessee dealer sites in 2015 and 2016, partially offset by the Franchised Holiday Stores acquisition.

Operating expenses

A $5.5 million decline in operating expenses attributable to the conversion of company-operated sites to the dealer customer group, partially offset by the Franchised Holiday Stores acquisition.

Nine Months EndedSeptember 30,2016 Compared to Nine Months EndedSeptember 30,2015

Gross profit declined$19.0 million, while operating expenses declined$10.0 million.

These results were impacted by:

Gross profit

• Our motor fuel gross profit decreased $9.9 million attributable to a 27% decrease in volume driven by the conversion of sites acquired in prior acquisitions to the dealer customer group during 2015 and 2016 and a 44% decrease in margin per gallon. See “Significant Factors Affecting our Profitability—The Significance of Crude Oil and Wholesale Motor Fuel Prices on Our Revenues, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit.”

• Our merchandise and services gross profit declined$9.1 million as a result of the conversion of company-operated sites to lessee dealer sites in 2015 and 2016. The decline in our merchandise gross profit percentage was the result of low gross margin items, such as cigarettes, comprising a higher percentage of our merchandise sales as a result of the change in product mix of our stores following our 2015 acquisitions and conversion of company-operated sites to the dealer customer group.

Operating expenses

• A $10.0 milliondecline in operating expenses attributable to the conversion of company-operated sites to the dealer customer group, partially offset by the impact of the Erickson, One Stop and Franchised Holiday Stores acquisitions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio. EBITDA represents net income available to CrossAmerica limited partners before deducting interest expense, income taxes and depreciation, amortization and accretion. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude equity funded expenses related to incentive compensation and the Amended Omnibus Agreement, gains or losses on sales of assets, certain discrete acquisition related costs, such as legal and other professional fees and severance expenses associated with recently acquired companies, and certain other discrete non-cash items arising from purchase accounting. Distributable Cash Flow represents Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, sustaining capital expenditures and current income tax expense. Distribution Coverage Ratio is computed by dividing Distributable Cash Flow by the weighted average diluted common and subordinated units and then dividing that result by the distributions paid per limited partner unit.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio are used as supplemental financial measures by management and by external users of CrossAmerica’s financial statements, such as investors and lenders. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used to assess the Partnership’s financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structure or income taxes and the ability to incur and service debt and to fund capital expenditures. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is used to assess the operating performance of CrossAmerica’s business on a consistent basis by excluding the impact of items which do not result directly from the wholesale distribution of motor fuel, the leasing of real property, or the day to day operations of the Partnership’s retail convenience store activities. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio are also used to assess the ability to generate cash sufficient to make distributions to CrossAmerica’s unit-holders.

We believe the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio provides useful information to investors in assessing the financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio should not be considered alternatives to net income or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income. Additionally, because EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio may be defined differently by other companies in CrossAmerica’s industry, our definitions may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our principal liquidity requirements are to finance our operations, fund acquisitions, service our debt and pay distributions to our unitholders and IDR distributions. We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated by our operations and borrowings under the revolving credit facility and, if available to us on acceptable terms, issuances of equity and debt securities. We regularly evaluate alternate sources of capital, including sale-leaseback financing of real property with third parties, to support our liquidity requirements.

Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and other capital requirements, including capital expenditures, acquisitions, and partnership distributions will depend on our future operating performance, which, in turn, will be subject to general economic, financial, business, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, many of which are beyond our control. As a normal part of our business, depending on market conditions, we will, from time to time, consider opportunities to repay, redeem, repurchase or refinance our indebtedness. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions or other events may cause us to seek additional debt or equity financing in future periods.

We believe that we will have sufficient cash flow from operations, borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility and access to capital markets and alternate sources of funding to meet our financial commitments, debt service obligations, contingencies, anticipated capital expenditures, and partnership distributions. However, we are subject to business and operational risks that could adversely affect our cash flow. A material decrease in our cash flows would likely produce an adverse effect on our borrowing capacity as well as our ability to issue additional equity and/or debt securities.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes cash flow activity (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2016			2015
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	$	63,698		$	48,900
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities	$	(90,288	)	$	(310,941	)
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities	$	28,295		$	248,731

Operating Activities

The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was driven primarily as a result of our acquisitions. See Note 18 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for supplemental cash flow information.

Investing Activities

During 2016, we spent $52.4 million on the Franchised Holiday Stores acquisition, $41.8 million on the State Oil acquisition and $2.9 million for the contracts assigned by CST to us, and in 2015, we spent $167.8 million on the Landmark, Erickson and One Stop acquisitions and $141.9 million on NTIs and CST Fuel Supply equity interests, which were the primary components of net cash used in investing activities.

Financing Activities

Our net borrowings under our credit facility totaled $96.1 million during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, which were primarily used to fund the Franchised Holiday Stores and State Oil acquisitions. Also, we paid $62.2 million in total distributions and repurchased $3.3 million of common units during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. During 2015, we borrowed $149.6 million primarily to finance the Landmark, Erickson and One Stop acquisitions. Additionally, we issued 4.8 million common units in exchange for net cash proceeds of $144.9 million and used the net proceeds of this offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under our revolving credit facility. We also paid $46.2 million in total distributions during 2015.

Refund payment related to CST sale of California and Wyoming assets

On July 7, 2016, CST provided a refund payment to the purchase price paid by the Partnership for our 17.5% interest in CST Fuel Supply. The total refund payment received by the Partnership was approximately $18.2 million. See Note 10 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

45

Distributions

Distribution activity for 2016 was as follows:

Quarter Ended	Record Date	Payment Date	Cash Distribution (per unit)		Cash Distribution (in thousands)
December 31, 2015	February 12, 2016	February 24, 2016	$	0.5925	$	19,618
March 31, 2016	May 19, 2016	May 31, 2016	$	0.5975	$	19,910
June 30, 2016	August 8, 2016	August 15, 2016	$	0.6025	$	20,125

On October 24, 2016, the Board approved a quarterly distribution of $0.6075 per unit attributable to the third quarter of 2016. The distribution is payable on November 15, 2016 to all unitholders of record on November 4, 2016.

IDRs

During 2016, we distributed $2.5 million to CST with respect to the IDRs.

Expiration of the Subordination Period

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, on February 25, 2016, the first business day after the payment of the fourth quarter of 2015 distribution of $0.5925 per unit, the subordination period under the Partnership Agreement ended. At that time, each of the 7,525,000 outstanding subordinated units converted into one common unit and now participate in distributions pro rata with other common units.

Debt

As of September 30, 2016, our consolidated debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

$550 million revolving credit facility	$	454,500
Note payable	836
Lease financing obligations	57,792
Total debt and lease financing obligations	513,128
Current portion	2,852
Noncurrent portion	510,276
Deferred financing fees	(4,300		)
Total	$	505,976

Our revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets. Our borrowings under the revolving credit facility had an interest rate of 3.52% (LIBOR plus 3.00%) as of September 30, 2016. Letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2016 totaled $4.3 million. As of November 4, 2016, after taking into consideration debt covenant constraints, approximately $53.0 million was available for future borrowings. In connection with future acquisitions, the revolving credit facility requires, among other things, that we have, after giving effect to such acquisition, at least, in the aggregate, $20 million of borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility and unrestricted cash on the balance sheet on the date of such acquisition. We are required to maintain a total leverage ratio (as defined in the revolving credit facility) for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters of less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the revolving credit facility) of greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2016, we were in compliance with these financial covenant ratios. The computation of our total leverage ratio allows for a pro forma application of the EBITDA (as defined in the revolving credit facility) of acquired entities and was 4.50x as of September 30, 2016. The total leverage ratio covenant is 5.00 to 1.00 for the two quarters following a material acquisition (as defined in the revolving credit facility). As such, the total leverage ratio steps down to 4.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2016 assuming there are no material acquisitions for the remainder of 2016.

46

Renegotiation of Rocky Top Purchase Obligation

In connection with the Rocky Top acquisition that we completed in September 2013, we entered into a deferred seller financing arrangement, which obligated us to purchase certain sites over a 5-year period for an average $5.2 million per year beginning in 2016 at an approximately 7.7% capitalization rate. In June 2016, we renegotiated the terms with the sellers, eliminating the deferred seller financing obligation and agreeing to terms of a new lease of the assets for an initial term of 15 years and 8 months with four renewal options of five years each. Under this triple net lease, annual rent is initially $1.8 million based on a 6.5% capitalization rate and increases 1.5% per year. However, because of the continuing involvement we have with the sites through the lease and sublease of the properties, we recorded the liability on our balance sheet at fair value on the date of the reclassification, which approximated its carrying value. During the second quarter of 2016, we reclassified the liability from debt and capital lease obligations to accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities on the balance sheet.

Capital Expenditures

We make investments to expand, upgrade and enhance existing assets. We categorize our capital requirements as either sustaining capital expenditures, growth capital expenditures or acquisition capital expenditures. Sustaining capital expenditures are those capital expenditures required to maintain our long-term operating income or operating capacity. Acquisition and growth capital expenditures are those capital expenditures that we expect will increase our operating income or operating capacity over the long term. We have the ability to fund our capital expenditures by additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility or, if available to us on acceptable terms, issuing additional equity, debt securities or other options, such as the sale of assets. With the significant decline in energy prices since 2014, access to the capital markets has tightened for the energy and MLP industries as a whole, which has impacted our cost of capital and our ability to raise equity and debt financing at favorable terms. Our ability to access the capital markets may have an impact on our ability to fund acquisitions. We may not be able to complete any offering of securities or other options on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

The following table outlines our consolidated capital expenditures and acquisitions for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2016		2015
Sustaining capital	$	723	$	1,035
Growth	10,844		6,570
Acquisitions	97,073		309,703
Total consolidated capital expenditures and acquisitions	$	108,640	$	317,308

Other Matters Impacting Liquidity and Capital Resources

Concentration of Customers

For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we distributed approximately 16% and 17% of our total wholesale distribution volumes to DMS and received 25% and 27% of our rent income from DMS. For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we distributed 8% of our total wholesale distribution volumes to CST and received 21% and 22% of our rent income from CST, respectively. For the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we received 10% of our rent income from a third-party dealer that operates many of the sites acquired through the PMI and One Stop acquisitions. See Note 10 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Partnership Common Unit Purchases by CST

On September 21, 2015, CST announced that the independent executive committee of its board of directors approved a unit purchase program under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, authorizing CST to purchase up to an aggregate of $50 million of the common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership. The unit purchase program does not have a fixed expiration date and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at CST’s discretion.

CST made no purchases under the unit purchase program during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. From inception until September 30, 2016, CST had purchased $19.8 million, or 804,667 common units, at an average price of $24.64 per common unit, which units cannot be transferred absent registration with the SEC or an available exemption from the SEC’s registration requirements.

47

Common Unit Repurchase Program

In November 2015, the Board approved a common unit repurchase program under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act authorizing the Partnership to repurchase up to an aggregate of $25 million of the common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership. Under the program, we may make purchases in the open market in accordance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act or otherwise. Any purchases will be funded from available cash on hand. The common unit repurchase program does not require us to acquire any specific number of common units and may be suspended or terminated by us at any time without prior notice. The purchases will not be made from any officer, director or control person of the Partnership or CST. The following table shows the purchases during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016:

Period	Total Number of Units Purchased	Average Price Paid per Unit		Total Cost of Units Purchased		Amount Remaining under the Program
January 1 - March 31, 2016	112,492	$	24.47	$	2,752,240	$	18,644,689
April 1 - June 30, 2016	20,971	$	23.86	$	500,413	$	18,144,276
July 1 - September 30, 2016	—	$	—	$	—	$	18,144,276
January 1 - September 30, 2016	133,463	$	24.37	$	3,252,653	$	18,144,276

Through November 4, 2016, we had repurchased 287,621 units for $6.9 million under the plan.

Acquisition of Franchised Holiday Stores

On March 29, 2016, we closed on the acquisition of 31 franchise Holiday stores and 3 company-operated liquor stores from S/S/G Corporation for approximately $52.4 million. Of the 34 company-operated stores, 31 are located in Wisconsin and 3 are located in Minnesota. The acquisition was funded by borrowings under our credit facility.

See Note 2 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Finalization of Purchase Accounting associated with the Erickson Acquisition

We recorded a $1.1 million receivable for a working capital settlement as tentatively agreed to with the sellers.

See Note 2 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Purchase of Wholesale Fuel Supply Contracts from CST

In February 2016, CST sold 21 independent dealer contracts and 11 subwholesaler contracts to us for $2.9 million.

See Note 2 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Acquisition of State Oil Assets

On September 27, 2016, we acquired certain assets of State Oil Company located in the greater Chicago market for approximately $41.8 million, including working capital.

See Note 2 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Outlook

This outlook section does not take into account or give any effect to the impact of CST’s proposed Merger on our business. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—The pending Merger could adversely impact our business and strategic plans for growth.”

As a result of our recent acquisitions, we expect our total fuel volume sold for the remainder of 2016 to be higher compared to 2015 volumes. While the U.S. energy markets, including wholesale and retail motor fuel prices, are likely to continue to be volatile in the coming year, we have seen modest increases in wholesale fuel margins in the second and third quarters compared to the first quarter of 2016 as a result of increases in our commodity prices and the resulting discounts we receive from our motor fuel suppliers.

We expect our rent income to increase in 2016 based on our recent acquisitions and our expectation that we will continue to convert recently acquired company-operated sites to lessee dealers. We will continue to evaluate acquisitions on an opportunistic basis. Additionally, we will pursue acquisition targets that fit into our strategy. Whether we will be able to execute acquisitions will depend on market conditions, availability of suitable acquisition targets at attractive terms, which are expected to be accretive to our unitholders, and our ability to finance such acquisitions on favorable terms.

49

New Accounting Policies

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842). This standard modifies existing guidance for reporting organizations that enter into leases to increase transparency by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09—Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This standard is issued as part of a simplification initiative involving several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. The approach to adoption is dependent upon which amendments are applicable. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15—Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This standard provides additional guidance on the classification of eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

Certain other new financial accounting pronouncements have become effective for our financial statements but the adoption of these pronouncements is not expected to materially impact our financial position or results of operations, nor will they require any additional disclosures.

50

Critical Accounting Policies Involving Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies described in our Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk

We purchase gasoline and diesel fuel from several suppliers at costs that are subject to market volatility. These purchases are generally made pursuant to contracts or at market prices established with the supplier. We do not currently engage in hedging activities for these purchases due to our pricing structure which allows us to generally pass on price changes to our customers and related parties.

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2016, we had $454.5 million outstanding on our revolving credit facility. Our outstanding borrowings bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 3.00%. These borrowings had an interest rate of 3.52%. A one percentage point change in our average rate would impact annual interest expense by approximately $4.5 million.

Commodity Price Risk

We have not historically hedged or managed our price risk with respect to our commodity inventories (gasoline and diesel fuel), as the time period between the purchases of our motor fuel inventory and the sales to our customers is very short.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our operations are located in the U.S., and therefore are not subject to foreign currency risk.

51

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report, and has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2016.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

52

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We hereby incorporate by reference into this Item our disclosures made in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report included in Note 11 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as set forth below, there were no material changes in risk factors for the company in the period covered by this report. See the risk factors disclosed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

The pending Merger could adversely impact our business and strategic plans for growth.

The pending Merger will require the time and attention of CST’s management, and may increase the challenge of recruiting and retaining talented and skilled personnel, which in turn could impact the level of services CST is able to provide to us. The Merger Agreement contains certain restrictions on our operations and, as a result, our revenue, operating results, growth in distributable cash flow and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

Upon closing of the Merger, we could incur significant severance costs.

Under the Partnership’s Executive Income Continuity Plan (“EICP”), following consummation of the merger, any participants who have a termination event under the EICP would be entitled to certain payments from the Partnership thereunder, and depending on the timing and amount, such severance benefits could be material to us. 

Upon the closing of the Merger, Couche-Tard will control us, and may have conflicts of interest with us.

Upon the closing of the Merger, Couche-Tard will indirectly own and control our General Partner, including the election of directors and appointment of officers; decisions regarding mergers, consolidations or acquisitions, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets and other matters affecting our capital structure; and other significant decisions that could impact our financial results and the amount of cash available for distribution.

53

Item 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Management Fee Issuance

As discussed in Note 12 to Item 1 in Part I above, on March 31, May 9, August 2 and October 27, 2016, we issued 145,137, 83,218, 101,087 and 110,824 common units to a subsidiary of CST as partial payment for the amounts incurred for the fourth quarter of 2015, the first quarter of 2016, the second quarter of 2016 and the third quarter of 2016, respectively, under the terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement. This issuance of the common units was made in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Common Unit Repurchase Program

In November 2015, the Board approved a common unit repurchase program under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act authorizing the Partnership to repurchase up to an aggregate of $25 million of the common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership. Under the program, we may make purchases in the open market in accordance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act or otherwise. Any purchases will be funded from available cash on hand. The common unit repurchase program does not require us to acquire any specific number of common units and may be suspended or terminated by us at any time without prior notice. The purchases will not be made from any officer, director or control person of the Partnership or CST. There were no purchases during the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Description of Business, Concentration Risk and Other Disclosures

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND OTHER DISCLOSURES

CST’s Merger Agreement

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Circle K Stores Inc. will, through its acquisition of CST, control CST’s interest in the General Partner and CST’s 19.6% limited partner interest in CrossAmerica as well as all of the IDRs. The transaction is subject to the approval of CST’s stockholders on November 16, 2016 and the receipt of regulatory approvals in the United States and Canada. The transaction is currently expected to close early calendar year 2017.

Description of Business

Our business consists of:

• the wholesale distribution of motor fuels;

• the retail distribution of motor fuels to end customers at sites operated by commission agents or us;

• the owning or leasing of sites used in the retail distribution of motor fuels and, in turn, generating rental income from the lease or sublease of the sites; and

• the operation of convenience stores.

The financial statements reflect the consolidated results of the Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Our primary operations are conducted by the following consolidated wholly owned subsidiaries:

• LGW, which distributes motor fuels on a wholesale basis and generates qualified income under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;

• LGPR, which functions as our real estate holding company and holds the assets that generate rental income that is qualifying under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and

• LGWS, which owns and leases (or leases and sub-leases) real estate and personal property used in the retail distribution of motor fuels, as well as provides maintenance and other services to its customers. In addition, LGWS distributes motor fuels on a retail basis and sells convenience merchandise items to end customers at company-operated retail sites and sells motor fuel on a retail basis at sites operated by commission agents. Income from LGWS generally is not qualifying income under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code.

CST owns 100% of the membership interest in the General Partner of the Partnership and 100% of our IDRs. The General Partner manages our operations and business activities. The General Partner is managed and operated by the executive officers of the General Partner, under the oversight of the Board. As a result of its ownership of all of the membership interests in the General Partner, CST has the right to appoint all members of the Board and therefore controls our operations even though CST does not own a majority of our common units.

As part of our business strategy with CST, we intend, when favorable market conditions exist and pending approval by the General Partner’s independent conflicts committee and the approval of the executive committee of the Board of Directors of CST and mutual agreement upon terms and other conditions, to purchase equity interests at fair market value in CST Fuel Supply, over time. As of September 30, 2016, our total equity interest in CST Fuel Supply was 17.5%. See Note 10 for discussion of the July 2016 refund of a portion of the purchase price paid in 2015 by the Partnership to CST Fuel Supply associated with the reduction in wholesale distribution volume resulting from CST’s sale of its California and Wyoming assets.

Additionally, we have previously issued common units as consideration in the purchase of equity interests in CST Fuel Supply and the real property associated with some of CST’s NTI convenience stores. We have previously issued, and may continue to issue, common units as payment for charges incurred under the Amended Omnibus Agreement. Pursuant to a unit purchase program announced in September 2015, CST has also acquired our common units through open market purchases. Through September 30, 2016, after giving effect to these transactions, CST owned 19.6% of our limited partner interests.

Interim Financial Statements

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and the Exchange Act. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless disclosed otherwise. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to keep the information presented from being misleading. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K. Financial information as of September 30, 2016 and for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 included in the consolidated financial statements has been derived from our unaudited financial statements. Financial information as of December 31, 2015 has been derived from our audited financial statements and notes thereto as of that date.

Operating results for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. Our business exhibits seasonality due to our wholesale and retail sites being located in certain geographic areas that are affected by seasonal weather and temperature trends and associated changes in retail customer activity during different seasons. Historically, sales volumes have been highest in the second and third quarters (during the summer activity months) and lowest during the winter months in the first and fourth quarters.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation, as discussed further in Note 16. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income or total equity.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results and outcomes could differ from those estimates and assumptions. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances could result in revised estimates and assumptions.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies described in our Form 10-K.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842). This standard modifies existing guidance for reporting organizations that enter into leases to increase transparency by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09—Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This standard is issued as part of a simplification initiative involving several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. The approach to adoption is dependent upon which amendments are applicable. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15—Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This standard provides additional guidance on the classification of eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance in addition to the timing of adoption.

Certain other new financial accounting pronouncements have become effective for our financial statements but the adoption of these pronouncements will not affect our financial position or results of operations, nor will they require any additional disclosures.

Concentration Risk

For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we distributed approximately 16% and 17% of our total wholesale distribution volumes to DMS and DMS accounted for approximately 25% and 27% of our rental income, respectively.

Valero supplied substantially all of the motor fuel purchased by CST Fuel Supply during all periods presented. During the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, CST Fuel Supply purchased approximately 0.5 billion and 1.4 billion gallons, respectively, of motor fuel from Valero.

For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we distributed 8% of our total wholesale distribution volume to CST convenience stores that are not supplied by CST Fuel Supply and received 21% and 22% of our rental income from CST, respectively.

For the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we received 10% of our rental income from a third party dealer that operates certain of the sites acquired through the PMI and One Stop acquisitions.

ACQUISITIONS

Acquisition of State Oil Assets

On September 27, 2016, we closed on the acquisition of 57 controlled sites (56 fee sites and 1 leased site) and certain other assets of State Oil Company, being operated as 55 lessee dealer accounts and 2 non-fuel tenant locations, as well as 25 independent dealer accounts located in the greater Chicago market for approximately $41.8 million, including working capital.

The preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the date of acquisition were as follows (in thousands):

Current assets (excluding inventories)	$	914
Inventories	150
Property and equipment	35,291
Intangibles	6,530
Other noncurrent assets	2,720
Current liabilities	(1,261		)
Asset retirement obligations	(1,897		)
Other long-term liabilities	(623		)
Total consideration, net of cash acquired	$	41,824

The $3.4 million fair value of the notes receivable, which is included within current and other noncurrent assets, was based on an income approach using relevant market participant assumptions.

The fair value of property and equipment, which consisted of land, 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 5 to 10 years for equipment.

The $4.9 million fair value of the wholesale fuel distribution rights included in intangibles was based on an income approach and 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 approximately 10 years.

The $1.6 million fair value of the wholesale fuel supply agreements was based on an income approach, and management believes the level and timing of cash flows represent relevant market participant assumptions. The wholesale fuel supply agreements are being amortized over an estimated useful life of approximately 10 years.

Management is reviewing the valuation and confirming the result to determine the final purchase price allocation.

Acquisition of Franchised Holiday Stores

On March 29, 2016, we closed on the acquisition of 31 franchised Holiday stores and 3 liquor stores from S/S/G Corporation for approximately $52.4 million, including working capital. Of the 34 stores, 31 are located in Wisconsin and 3 are located in Minnesota. The acquisition was funded by borrowings under our credit facility.

The preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the date of acquisition were as follows (in thousands):

Current assets (excluding inventories)	$	41
Inventories	3,536
Property and equipment	33,055
Intangibles	7,710
Goodwill	9,126
Current liabilities	(56		)
Asset retirement obligations	(1,062		)
Total consideration, net of cash acquired	$	52,350

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 property and equipment, which consisted of land, 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 5 to 10 years for equipment.

The $6.5 million fair value of the wholesale fuel distribution rights included in intangibles was based on an income approach and 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 approximately 10 years.

The $1.0 million fair value of the discount related to lease agreements with below average market value was based on an income approach, and management believes the level and timing of cash flows represent relevant market participant assumptions. These intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective lease agreements, with an estimated weighted average useful life of 5 years.

Goodwill recorded is primarily attributable to the end-customer relationships not eligible for recognition as an intangible asset. Of the goodwill recorded, $1.8 million was assigned to the Wholesale segment and $7.3 million was assigned to the Retail segment. Goodwill deductible for tax purposes amounted to $29.0 million.

Operating revenues since the date of acquisition were $28.8 million and $57.5 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, respectively.

Management is reviewing the valuation and confirming the result to determine the final purchase price allocation.

Finalization of Purchase Accounting associated with the Erickson Acquisition

In the first quarter of 2016, we recorded a $1.1 million receivable related to a working capital settlement as agreed to with the sellers, reducing net consideration and resulting goodwill. We finalized the purchase accounting for this acquisition with the receivable related to the working capital settlement being the only adjustment recorded in 2016.

Purchase of Wholesale Fuel Supply Contracts from CST

In February 2016, we purchased 21 independent dealer contracts and 11 subwholesaler contracts from CST for $2.9 million. This transaction was approved on behalf of the Partnership by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST. See Note 10 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Our business model includes the conversion of retail sites from company-operated sites to dealer-operated sites. As a result of these conversions, there is a reduction in future cash flows in the Retail segment and an expected increase in future cash flows that will be received by the Wholesale segment subsequent to the date of conversion. The effect of these conversions, for the period ended September 30, 2016, is a $5.3 million reassignment of goodwill originally assigned to the Retail segment to the Wholesale segment.

2017	57
2018	765
2019	454,500
Total	$	455,336

Our $550 million revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets. Letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 totaled $4.3 million and $16.0 million, respectively. The amount of availability at September 30, 2016 under the revolving credit facility, after taking into account debt covenant constraints, was $57.0 million. In connection with future acquisitions, the revolving credit facility requires, among other things, that we have, after giving effect to such acquisition, at least $20.0 million, in the aggregate, of borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility and unrestricted cash on the balance sheet on the date of such acquisition.

Renegotiation of Rocky Top Purchase Obligation

In connection with the Rocky Top acquisition completed in September 2013, we entered into a deferred seller financing arrangement, which obligated us to purchase certain sites over a 5-year period for an average of $5.2 million per year beginning in 2016 at an approximately 7.7% capitalization rate. In June 2016, we renegotiated the terms with the sellers, eliminating the deferred seller financing obligation and agreeing to terms of a new lease of the assets for an initial term of 15 years and 8 months with four renewal options of five years each. Under this triple net lease, annual rent is initially $1.8 million based on a 6.5% capitalization rate and increases 1.5% per year. However, because of the continuing involvement we have with the sites through the lease and sublease of the properties, we recorded the liability on our balance sheet at fair value on the date of the reclassification, which approximated its carrying value. During the second quarter of 2016, we reclassified the liability from debt and capital lease obligations to accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Financial Covenants and Interest Rate

Our revolving credit facility contains financial covenants consisting of a total leverage ratio (as defined in the credit facility) for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters of less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit facility) of greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2016, we were in compliance with these covenants. The total leverage ratio covenant is 5.00 to 1.00 for the two quarters following a material acquisition (as defined in the credit facility). As such, the total leverage ratio steps down to 4.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2016 assuming there are no material acquisitions for the remainder of 2016.

Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the LIBOR plus a margin of 3.00%. Our borrowings had an interest rate of 3.52% as of September 30, 2016.

Transactions with CST

Fuel Sales and Rental Income

We sell wholesale motor fuel under a master fuel distribution agreement to 43 CST convenience stores and lease real property on 74 retail sites to CST under a master lease agreement each having initial 10-year terms. The fuel distribution agreement provides us with a fixed wholesale mark-up per gallon. The master lease agreement is a triple net lease.

Revenues from wholesale fuel sales and real property rental income from CST were as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015

Rental income from CST	$	4,207	$	4,317	$	12,841	$	7,104

Receivables from CST were $3.0 million and $2.3 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, related to these transactions.

CST Fuel Supply Equity Interests

CST Fuel Supply provides wholesale motor fuel distribution to the majority of CST’s U.S. Retail convenience stores on a fixed markup per gallon. We owned a 17.5% total interest in CST Fuel Supply at September 30, 2016 and 2015. We account for the income derived from our equity interest of CST Fuel Supply as “Income from CST Fuel Supply equity” on our statement of operations, which amounted to $4.0 million and $4.2 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $12.3 million and $6.5 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Purchase of Wholesale Fuel Supply Contracts from CST

In February 2016, we purchased 21 independent dealer contracts and 11 subwholesaler contracts from CST for $2.9 million with historic annual volumes of approximately 20 million gallons. This transaction was approved on our behalf by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST. Since this was a transaction between entities under common control, the $2.9 million purchase price was accounted for as a distribution recorded in partners’ capital.

We purchase the fuel supplied to these 32 sites from CST Fuel Supply, of which we own a 17.5% interest, and resell the wholesale motor fuel to the independent dealers and subwholesalers. We purchased $5.7 million and $14.7 million of motor fuel from CST Fuel Supply for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, respectively, in connection with these 32 sites.

Refund payment related to CST sale of California and Wyoming Assets

In July 2016, CST provided a refund payment to us related to our 17.5% interest in CST Fuel Supply resulting from the sale by CST of 79 retail sites in California and Wyoming to 7-Eleven, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, SEI Fuel Services, Inc., to which CST Fuel Supply no longer supplies motor fuel. The purpose of the refund payment was to make us whole for the decrease in the value of our interest in CST Fuel Supply arising from sales volume decreases. The total refund payment received by the Partnership, as approved by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST, was approximately $18.2 million ($17.5 million in cash with the remainder in CrossAmerica common units owned by CST) and was accounted for as a contribution to equity.

IDR and Common Unit Distributions

We distributed $2.5 million to CST related to its ownership of our IDRs and $11.5 million related to its ownership of our common units during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. CST received cash distributions of $0.8 million related to its investment in our IDRs and $4.6 million related to its ownership of our common units during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015.

We lease real estate from certain entities affiliated with Joseph V. Topper, Jr. Rent expense paid to these entities was $0.2 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $0.6 million and $0.7 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Amended Omnibus Agreement and Management Fees

We incurred $3.9 million and $3.6 million in charges for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $12.1 million and $10.7 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, including incentive compensation costs and non-cash stock-based compensation expense under the Amended Omnibus Agreement, which are recorded as a component of operating expenses and general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations. Effective January 1, 2016, the fixed billing component of the management fee under the Amended Omnibus Agreement was increased to $856,000 per month, which was approved on our behalf by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and by the executive committee of the board of directors of CST. CST and the Partnership have the right to negotiate the amount of the management fee on an annual basis, or more often as circumstances require. Amounts payable to CST related to these transactions were $8.3 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. See Note 13 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the settlement of amounts due under the Amended Omnibus Agreement that were settled in our common units.

Maintenance and Environmental Costs

Certain maintenance and environmental monitoring and remediation activities are performed by a related party of Joseph V. Topper, Jr. as approved by the independent conflicts committee of the Board. We incurred charges with this related party of $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $1.2 million and $1.1 million in charges with this related party for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Aircraft Usage Costs

From time to time, we lease, on a non-exclusive basis, aircraft owned by a group of individuals that includes Joseph V. Topper, Jr. and John B. Reilly, III, members of our Board, as previously approved in August 2013 by the independent conflicts committee of the Board. Lease costs incurred by us for use of these aircraft were insignificant for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015.

Principal Executive Offices

The principal executive offices of the Partnership are in Allentown, Pennsylvania in an office space leased by CST from a related party of Joseph V. Topper, Jr. and John B. Reilly, III. Rent expense charged by CST to the Partnership was $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation Matters

We are from time to time party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract and/or property damages, environmental damages, employment-related claims and damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief. With respect to all such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, we record a reserve when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, we disclose matters for which management believes a material loss is at least reasonably possible. None of these proceedings, separately or in the aggregate, are expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In all instances, management has assessed the matter based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, giving due consideration to the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. Management’s judgment may prove materially inaccurate, and such judgment is made subject to the known uncertainties of litigation.

We are a co-defendant, together with our General Partner, CST and CST Services LLC, in a lawsuit brought by Charles Nifong, a former employee of CST Services LLC who previously provided services to the Partnership as Chief Investment Officer and Vice President of Finance (Court of Common Pleas,  Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, case number 2015-1003). On February 16, 2016 the United States District Court Eastern District of Pennsylvania (Allentown) remanded the case to the Court of Common Pleas, Lehigh County. The plaintiff alleges breach of contract and associated claims relating to his termination of employment and claimed severance benefits under the Partnership’s Executive Income Continuity Plan (the “EICP”) totaling approximately $1.6 million.  We intend to contest the action vigorously. Under the EICP, we are obligated to pay reasonable legal expenses incurred by the plaintiff in connection with this dispute whether we are successful in our defense or not.

Environmental Matters

Environmental liabilities related to the sites contributed to the Partnership in connection with our IPO have not been assigned to us, and are still the responsibility of the Predecessor Entity. Under the Amended Omnibus Agreement, the Predecessor Entity must indemnify us for any costs or expenses that it incurs for environmental liabilities and third-party claims, regardless of when a claim is made, that are based on environmental conditions in existence prior to the closing of the IPO for contributed sites. The Predecessor Entity’s environmental liabilities and indemnification assets associated with contributed sites amounted to $6.5 million and $4.8 million at September 30, 2016 and $7.0 million and $5.0 million at December 31, 2015, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

General

We measure and report certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). U.S. GAAP specifies a three-level hierarchy that is used when measuring and disclosing fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices available in active markets (i.e., observable inputs) and the lowest priority to data lacking transparency (i.e., unobservable inputs). An instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. The following is a description of the three hierarchy levels.

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Active markets are considered to be those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2—Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs are not corroborated by market data. This category is comprised of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is estimated based on internally developed models or methodologies using significant inputs that are generally less readily observable from objective sources.

Transfers into or out of any hierarchy level are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which the transfers occurred. There were no transfers between any levels in 2016 or 2015.

As further discussed in Note 14 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, we have accrued for unvested phantom units and vested and unvested profits interests as a liability and adjust that liability on a recurring basis based on the market price of our common units each balance sheet date. Such fair value measurements are deemed Level 1 measurements.

Financial Instruments

The fair value of our accounts receivable, notes receivable, and accounts payable approximated their carrying values as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the revolving credit facility approximated its carrying values of $454.5 million as of September 30, 2016 and $358.4 million as of December 31, 2015, due to the frequency with which interest rates are reset and the consistency of the market spread. The fair value of debt, classified as a Level 2 measurement, was estimated using an income approach by discounting future cash flows at estimated current cost of funding rates.

Partners' Capital

PARTNERS’ CAPITAL

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, on February 25, 2016, the first business day after the payment of the fourth quarter of 2015 distribution of $0.5925 per unit, the subordination period under the Partnership Agreement ended. At that time, each of the 7,525,000 outstanding subordinated units converted into one common unit and now participate in distributions pro rata with other common units.

For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, we issued 1,150 and 95,751 common units (net of units withheld for income taxes) as a result of the vesting of phantom units and conversion of profit interests previously issued primarily to CST employees who provide services principally to the Partnership. See Note 14 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Common Units Issued to CST as Consideration for Amounts Due Under the Terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement

As approved by the independent conflicts committee of the Board and the executive committee of CST’s board of directors, the Partnership and CST mutually agreed to settle, from time to time, the amounts due under the terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement in newly issued common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership. We issued the following common units to CST as consideration for amounts due under the terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement:

Common Unit Repurchase Program

In November 2015, the Board approved a common unit repurchase program under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act authorizing us to repurchase up to an aggregate of $25.0 million of the common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership. Under the program, we may make purchases in the open market in accordance with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, or in privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act or otherwise. Any purchases will be funded from available cash on hand. The common unit repurchase program does not require us to acquire any specific number of common units and may be suspended or terminated by us at any time without prior notice. The purchases will not be made from any officer, director or control person of the Partnership or CST. The following table shows the purchases during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016:

CST Purchases of CrossAmerica Common Units

On September 21, 2015, CST announced that the independent executive committee of its Board of Directors approved a unit purchase program under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, authorizing CST to purchase up to an aggregate of $50 million of the common units representing limited partner interests in CrossAmerica. The unit purchase program does not have a fixed expiration date and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at CST’s discretion.

CST made no purchases under the unit purchase program during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. From inception until September 30, 2016, CST had purchased $19.8 million, or 804,667 common units, at an average price of $24.64 per common unit, which units cannot be transferred absent registration with the SEC or an available exemption from the SEC’s registration requirements.

EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

Overview

We record equity-based compensation as a component of general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations. Compensation expense was $0.7 million and $0.4 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, and $2.6 million and $3.8 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Partnership Equity-Based Awards

We grant Partnership equity-based awards to certain employees of CST who perform services for the Partnership pursuant to the Amended Omnibus Agreement. As these grants may be settled in cash, the equity-based awards receive fair value variable accounting treatment. As such, they are measured at fair value at each balance sheet reporting date and the cumulative compensation cost recognized is classified as a liability, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The balance of the accrual at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 totaled $1.5 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

CST Awards

In addition to Partnership equity-based awards previously discussed, CST also granted equity-based awards of approximately 102,000 and 155,000 for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which were granted to certain employees of CST for services rendered on behalf of the Partnership. Expense associated with these awards that was charged to us under the Amended Omnibus Agreement was $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the three months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015 and $1.3 million and $2.0 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Awards to Members of the Board

In December 2015, the Partnership issued 11,476 non-vested phantom units to non-employee directors of the Board as a portion of director compensation. Such awards vest in December 2016.

The liability for these awards at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The associated compensation expense was not significant for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and 2015.

Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit Disclosure

NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNER UNIT

A subsidiary of CST, as the holder of our IDRs, has a contractual interest in distributions from the Partnership that are increasing percentages starting at 15% of quarterly distributions out of the operating surplus (as defined in our Partnership Agreement) in excess of $0.5031 per limited partner unit.

In addition to the common units, we have identified the IDRs as participating securities and compute income per unit using the two-class method under which any excess of distributions declared over net income shall be allocated to the partners based on their respective sharing of income as specified in the Partnership Agreement. Net income per unit applicable to limited partners (including common and subordinated unitholders) is computed by dividing the limited partners’ interest in net income (loss), after deducting the IDRs, by the weighted-average number of outstanding common units.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of net income (loss) and weighted-average units used in computing basic and diluted net income (loss) per limited partner unit for the following periods (in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts):

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]

INCOME TAXES

As a limited partnership, we are not subject to federal and state income taxes, however our corporate subsidiaries are subject to income taxes. Income tax attributable to our taxable income, which may differ significantly from income for financial statement purposes, is assessed at the individual limited partner unit holder level. We are subject to a statutory requirement that non-qualifying income, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, cannot exceed 10% of total gross income for the calendar year. If non-qualifying income exceeds this statutory limit, we would be taxed as a corporation. The non-qualifying income did not exceed the statutory limit in any period presented.

Certain activities that generate non-qualifying income are conducted through LGWS. LGWS is a tax paying corporate subsidiary of ours that is subject to federal and state income taxes. Current and deferred income taxes are recognized on the earnings of LGWS. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted tax rates.

We recorded income tax expense of $1.3 million and $0.9 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 and income tax benefits of $0.1 million and $2.7 million for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, respectively, as a result of earnings generated and losses incurred by its corporate subsidiaries. The effective tax rate differs from the combined federal and state statutory rate because only LGWS is subject to income tax.

The tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 included a $0.1 million increase and a $0.3 million decrease, respectively, in the valuation allowance.

Segment Reporting (Notes)

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information Disclosure

SEGMENT REPORTING

We conduct our business in two segments: 1) the Wholesale segment and 2) the Retail segment. The wholesale segment includes the wholesale distribution of motor fuel to the lessee dealer, independent dealer, DMS and CST customer groups. We have exclusive motor fuel distribution contracts with lessee dealers who lease the property from us. We also have exclusive distribution contracts with independent dealers to distribute motor fuel but do not collect rent from the independent dealers. Similar to lessee dealers, we have motor fuel distribution agreements with DMS and CST and collect rent from both. The Retail segment includes the sale of convenience merchandise items, the retail sale of motor fuel at company-operated sites and the retail sale of motor fuel at sites operated by commission agents. A commission agent is a retail site where we retain title to the motor fuel inventory and sell it directly to our end user customers. At commission agent sites, we manage motor fuel inventory pricing and retain the gross profit on motor fuel sales, less a commission to the agent who operates the retail site.

As part of our evaluation of the economic performance of our retail sites, we will from time to time convert company-owned convenience stores from our Retail segment to our lessee dealer customer group in our Wholesale segment. During the first nine months of 2016, we converted 72 company-operated convenience stores from our Retail segment to our lessee dealer customer group in our Wholesale segment. As such, we no longer generate revenues from the retail sale of motor fuel or merchandise at these stores subsequent to the date of conversion and we no longer incur retail operating expenses related to these sites. However, we continue to supply these sites with motor fuel on a wholesale basis pursuant to the fuel supply contract with the lessee dealer. Further, we continue to own/lease the property and earn rental income under lease/sublease agreements with the lessee dealers under triple net leases. The lessee dealer owns all motor fuel and convenience merchandise and retains all gross profit on such operating activities.

Prior to 2016, we netted lease executory costs such as real estate taxes, maintenance, and utilities that we paid and re-billed to customers against rental income on our statement of operations. During the first quarter of 2016, we began accounting for such amounts as rent income and operating expenses and reflected this change in presentation retrospectively. This change resulted in a $2.9 million and $7.9 million increase in rent and other income and operating expenses for the wholesale segment for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015, respectively.

Unallocated items consist primarily of general and administrative expenses, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, gains on sales of assets, net, and the elimination of the Retail segment’s intersegment cost of revenues from motor fuel sales against the Wholesale segment’s intersegment revenues from motor fuel sales. The profit in ending inventory generated by the intersegment motor fuel sales is also eliminated. Total assets by segment are not presented as management does not currently assess performance or allocate resources based on that data.
