The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation should be read in conjunction with the consolidated condensed financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere herein.
Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation (MIC) is a Delaware corporation formed on May 21, 2015. MICs predecessor, Macquarie Infrastructure Company LLC, was formed on April 13, 2004. Except as otherwise specified, all references in this Form 10-Q to MIC, we, us, and our refer to Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation and its subsidiaries.
MIC is externally managed by Macquarie Infrastructure Management (USA) Inc. (our Manager) pursuant to the terms of a Management Services Agreement that is subject to the oversight and supervision of our Board of Directors. The majority of the members of our Board of Directors have no affiliation with Macquarie. Our Manager is a member of the Macquarie Group of companies comprising the Macquarie Group Limited and its subsidiaries and affiliates worldwide. Macquarie Group Limited is headquartered in Australia and is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange.
We currently own and operate a diversified portfolio of businesses that provide services to other businesses, government agencies and individuals primarily in the U.S. The businesses we own and operate are organized into four segments:
| International-Matex Tank Terminals (IMTT): a marine terminals business providing bulk liquid storage, handling and other services to third parties at ten terminals in the U.S. and two in Canada; |
| Atlantic Aviation: a provider of fuel, terminal, aircraft hangaring and other services primarily to owners and operators of general aviation (GA) jet aircraft at 69 airports throughout the U.S.; |
| Contracted Power (CP): comprising a gas-fired facility and controlling interests in wind and solar facilities in the U.S.; and |
| MIC Hawaii: comprising an energy company that processes and distributes gas and provides related services (Hawaii Gas), and several smaller businesses collectively engaged in efforts to reduce the cost and improve the reliability and sustainability of energy, all based in Hawaii. |
Our businesses generally operate in sectors with barriers to entry including high initial development and construction costs, long-term contracts or the requirement to obtain government approvals and a lack of immediate cost-effective alternatives to the services provided. Overall they tend to generate sustainable, stable and growing cash flows over the long term.
In addition to our results under U.S. GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures to assess the performance and prospects of our businesses. In particular, we use EBITDA excluding non-cash items, Free Cash Flow and certain proportionately combined financial metrics. Proportionately combined financial metrics reflect MIC Corporate and our ownership interest in each of our businesses.
We measure EBITDA excluding non-cash items as it reflects our businesses ability to effectively manage the volume of products sold or services provided, the margin earned on those transactions and the management of operating expenses independent of the capitalization and tax attributes of those businesses.
In analyzing the financial performance of our businesses, we focus primarily on cash generation and Free Cash Flow in particular. We believe investors use Free Cash Flow as a measure of our ability to sustain and potentially increase our quarterly cash dividend and to fund a portion of our growth.

See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations Consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) excluding non-cash items, Free Cash Flow and Proportionately Combined Metrics for further information on our calculation of EBITDA excluding non-cash items, Free Cash Flow and our proportionately combined metrics and for reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures.
At IMTT, we focus on providing bulk liquid storage, handling and other services to customers who place a premium on ease of access and operational flexibility. The substantial majority of IMTTs revenue is generated pursuant to take-or-pay contracts providing access to storage tank capacity and ancillary services.
At Atlantic Aviation, our focus is on attracting and maintaining relationships with GA aircraft owners and pilots and encouraging them to purchase fuel and other services from our fixed based operations (FBOs). Atlantic Aviations gross margin is correlated with the number of GA flight movements in the U.S. and the business ability to service a portion of the aircraft involved in those operations.
The businesses that comprise our CP segment generate revenue by producing and selling electric power pursuant primarily to long-dated power purchase agreements (PPAs) or tolling agreements all with creditworthy off-takers.
MIC Hawaii comprises Hawaii Gas and several smaller businesses collectively engaged in efforts to reduce the cost and improve the reliability and sustainability of energy in Hawaii. The businesses of MIC Hawaii generate revenue primarily from the provision of gas services to commercial, residential and governmental customers, the generation of power and the design and construction of building mechanical systems.
Since January 1, 2016, MIC has paid or declared the following dividends:

Fourth quarter 2015 | 1.15 | March 3, 2016 | March 8, 2016 |
We currently intend to maintain, and where possible, increase our quarterly cash dividend to our shareholders. The MIC Board has authorized a quarterly cash dividend of $1.32 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, or a 0.8% increase over the dividend for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 and 10.0% increase over the dividend for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. In determining whether to adjust the amount of our quarterly dividend, our Board will take into account such matters as the state of the capital markets and general business conditions, the Companys financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, capital opportunities and any contractual, legal and regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends by the Company to its stockholders or by its subsidiaries to the Company, and any other factors that it deems relevant, subject to maintaining a prudent level of reserves and without creating undue volatility in the amount of such dividends where possible. Moreover, the Companys senior secured credit facility and the debt commitments at our businesses contain restrictions that may limit the Companys ability to pay dividends. Although historically we have declared cash dividends on our shares, any or all of these or other factors could result in the modification of our dividend policy, or the reduction, modification or elimination of our dividend in the future.

Consolidated revenue increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily as a result of an increase in volume of fuel sold and an increase in the wholesale cost of fuel at Atlantic Aviation and an increase in volume of gas sold and an increase in the wholesale cost of gas at our Hawaii Gas business. Consolidated revenue also increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 due to contributions from acquisitions within the MIC Hawaii segment.
3
Consolidated cost of services and product sales increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to an increase in the wholesale cost of fuel at Atlantic Aviation, unrealized losses on commodity hedges and increases in the wholesale cost of gas at the Hawaii Gas business and contributions from acquisitions within MIC Hawaii.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to $2.4 million of costs incurred in connection with the implementation of our shared services initiative and incremental costs associated with acquisitions in 2016. We expect to incur additional implementation costs during the balance of 2017, principally in relation to severance and consulting services, and to realize full year savings in connection with consolidating common back-office functions including Accounting, Human Resources, Tax, Information Technology and Risk Management support for each of MICs operating entities in 2018.
Our Manager is entitled to a monthly base management fee based primarily on our market capitalization and potentially a quarterly performance fee based on the total stockholder return relative to a U.S. utilities index. For the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we incurred base management fees of $18.2 million and $14.8 million, respectively. For the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, our Manager did not earn any performance fees. The unpaid portion of the base management fees and performance fees, if any, at the end of each reporting period is included in Due to Manager-related party in our consolidated condensed balance sheets.
In all of the periods shown below, our Manager elected to reinvest any fees to which it was entitled in additional shares. In accordance with the Third Amended and Restated Management Service Agreement, our Manager has currently elected to reinvest future base management fees and performance fees, if any, in additional shares.

Depreciation expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily as a result of assets placed in service at Atlantic Aviation during 2016 and from acquisitions.

Interest expense includes gains on derivative instruments of $954,000 and losses on derivative instruments of $31.8 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Gains and losses on derivatives recorded in interest expense are attributable to the change in fair value of interest rate hedging instruments. For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, interest expense also included the non-cash write-off of deferred financing costs at Hawaii Gas related to the February 2016 refinancing of its $80.0 million term loan debt and its $60.0 million revolving credit facility. Excluding the derivative adjustments and deferred financing cost write-offs, interest expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to an overall lower weighted average interest rate, partially offset by a higher average debt balance. Cash interest expense was $25.9 million and $27.4 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. See discussions of interest expense for each of our operating businesses below.
Other income, net, decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 as a result of the absence of insurance recoveries totaling $2.5 million from losses in connection with damaged docks at IMTT.
We file a consolidated federal income tax return that includes the financial results for IMTT, Atlantic Aviation, Bayonne Energy Center (BEC), MIC Hawaii and our allocable share of the taxable income (loss) from our solar and wind facilities, which are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. Pursuant to a tax sharing agreement, the businesses included in our consolidated federal income tax return pay MIC an amount equal to the federal income tax each would have paid on a standalone basis as if they were not part of the consolidated federal income tax return.
For the year ending December 31, 2017, we expect any consolidated federal income tax liability to be fully offset by net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards. Our federal NOL balance at December 31, 2016 was $398.1 million. We believe that we will be able to utilize all of our federal prior year NOLs and, together with planned tax strategies, we do not expect to make regular federal income tax payments any earlier than the second half of 2019.
At March 31, 2017, we expected that for the year ending December 31, 2017 we would report current year taxable income of approximately $130.0 million and pay approximately $1.5 million in Alternative Minimum Tax, net of available investment tax credits. In May 2017, we completed an investment in a renewable project that will, provided it has reached commercial operations prior to year-end, generate investment tax credits that would entirely offset the forecasted Alternative Minimum Tax. The project is expected to be in service in October 2017.
For the year ending December 31, 2017, we expect to pay state income taxes of approximately $15.0 million. In calculating our consolidated state income tax provision, we have provided a valuation allowance for certain state income tax NOLs, the use of which is uncertain.
The PATH Act retroactively extends several tax provisions applicable to corporations, including the extension of 50% bonus depreciation for certain assets placed in service in 2015, 2016 and 2017, 40% bonus depreciation for eligible property placed in service in 2018 and 30% bonus depreciation for eligible property placed in service in 2019. Other than the extension of the bonus depreciation provision, the Company does not expect the provisions of the PATH Act to have a material effect on its tax profile.
In addition to our results under U.S. GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures to assess the performance and prospects of our businesses. In particular, we use EBITDA excluding non-cash items, Free Cash Flow and certain proportionately combined financial metrics. Proportionately combined financial metrics reflect MIC Corporate and our ownership interest in each of our businesses.
5
We measure EBITDA excluding non-cash items as it reflects our businesses ability to effectively manage the volume of products sold or services provided, the operating margin earned on those transactions and the management of operating expenses independent of the capitalization and tax attributes of those businesses. We believe investors use EBITDA excluding non-cash items primarily as a measure of the operating performance of MICs businesses and to make comparisons with the operating performance of other businesses whose depreciation and amortization expense may vary widely from ours, particularly where acquisitions and other non-operating factors are involved. We define EBITDA excluding non-cash items as net income (loss) or earnings the most comparable GAAP measure before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and non-cash items including impairments, unrealized derivative gains and losses, adjustments for other non-cash items and pension expense reflected in the statements of operations. EBITDA excluding non-cash items also excludes base management fees and performance fees, if any, whether paid in cash or stock.
Given our varied ownership levels in our CP and MIC Hawaii segments, together with our obligations to report the results of these businesses on a consolidated basis, GAAP measures such as net income (loss) do not fully reflect all of the items we consider in assessing the amount of cash generated based on our ownership interest in our businesses. We note that the proportionately combined metrics used may be calculated in a different manner by other companies and may limit their usefulness as a comparative measure. Therefore, proportionately combined metrics should be used as a supplemental measure to help understand our financial performance and not in lieu of our financial results reported under GAAP.
Our businesses can be characterized as owners of high-value, long-lived assets capable of generating substantial Free Cash Flow. We define Free Cash Flow as cash from operating activities the most comparable GAAP measure which includes cash paid for interest, taxes and pension contributions, less maintenance capital expenditures, which includes principal repayments on capital lease obligations used to fund maintenance capital expenditures, and excludes changes in working capital.
We use Free Cash Flow as a measure of our ability to provide investors with an attractive risk-adjusted return by sustaining and potentially increasing our quarterly cash dividend and funding a portion of our growth. GAAP metrics such as net income (loss) do not provide us with the same level of visibility into the performance and prospects of the business as a result of: (i) the capital intensive nature of our businesses and the generation of non-cash depreciation and amortization; (ii) shares issued to our external Manager under the Management Services Agreement; (iii) our ability to defer all or a portion of current federal income taxes; (iv) non-cash unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments; (v) amortization of tolling liabilities; (vi) gains (losses) on disposal of assets; and (vii) pension expense. Pension expenses primarily consist of interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization of actuarial and performance gains and losses. Any cash contributions to pension plans are reflected as a reduction to Free Cash Flow. We believe that external consumers of our financial statements, including investors and research analysts, use Free Cash Flow both to assess MICs performance and as an indicator of its success in generating an attractive risk-adjusted return.
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have disclosed Free Cash Flow on a consolidated basis and for each of our operating segments and MIC Corporate. We believe that both EBITDA excluding non-cash items and Free Cash Flow support a more complete and accurate understanding of the financial and operating performance of our businesses than would otherwise be achieved using GAAP results alone.
Free Cash Flow does not take into consideration required payments on indebtedness and other fixed obligations or the other cash items that are excluded from our definition of Free Cash Flow. We note that Free Cash Flow may be calculated differently by other companies thereby limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Free Cash Flow should be used as a supplemental measure to help understand our financial performance and not in lieu of our financial results reported under GAAP.
6
We categorize capital expenditures as either maintenance capital expenditures or growth capital expenditures. As neither maintenance capital expenditure nor growth capital expenditure is a GAAP term, we have adopted a framework to categorize specific capital expenditures. In broad terms, maintenance capital expenditures primarily maintain our businesses at current levels of operations, capability, profitability or cash flow, while growth capital expenditures primarily provide new or enhanced levels of operations, capability, profitability or cash flow. We consider a number of factors in determining whether a specific capital expenditure will be classified as maintenance or growth.
In some cases, specific capital expenditures contain characteristics of both maintenance and growth capital expenditures. We do not bifurcate specific capital expenditures into maintenance and growth components. Each discrete capital expenditure is considered within the above framework and the entire capital expenditure is classified as either maintenance or growth.
A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA excluding non-cash items and a reconciliation from cash provided by operating activities to Free Cash Flow, on a consolidated basis, is provided below. Similar reconciliations for each of our operating businesses and MIC Corporate follow.

IMTT generates the majority of its revenue from contracts typically comprising a fixed monthly charge (that escalates annually with inflation) for access to or use of its infrastructure. We refer to revenue generated from such contracts or fixed charges as firm commitments. Firm commitments are generally of medium term duration and at March 31, 2017, had a revenue weighted average remaining life of 2.2 years. Revenue from firm commitments comprised 80.1% of total revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2017, total revenue increased by $3.4 million compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to an increase in the level of spill response activity on the part of IMTTs subsidiary, OMI, and an increase in revenue from firm commitments. The increase in revenue was partially offset by an absence in rail services revenue principally in connection with the reduced demand for Canadian crude oil in the U.S.
Consistent with strong demand for liquid product storage generally, capacity utilization was higher than historically normal levels at 96.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and higher than the 96.1% recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The business views historically normal utilization levels as in a range of 94% to 96%.
Cost of services and selling, general and administrative expenses combined increased in the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily the result of higher costs associated with OMI as a result of increased spill related activity, costs associated with the implementation of our shared services initiative and franchise taxes associated with newly enacted legislation in Louisiana, partially offset by savings from ongoing cost control initiatives.
Interest expense includes gains on derivative instruments of $521,000 and losses on derivative instruments of $10.8 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Excluding the derivative adjustments, interest expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 due to lower average interest rates partially offset by a higher average debt balance. Cash interest expense was $9.7 million and $9.8 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Other income, net, included insurance recoveries totaling $2.5 million during the first quarter of 2016 from losses in connection with damaged docks.
The federal taxable income generated by IMTT is reported as part of our consolidated federal tax return. The business files state income tax returns in the states in which it operates. For the year ending December 31, 2017, the business expects to pay state income taxes of approximately $6.0 million. The Provision for income taxes, net of changes in deferred taxes of $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 in the above table includes $1.9 million of state income tax expense and $352,000 of federal income tax expense. Any current federal income tax payable is expected to be offset in consolidation with the application of NOLs at the MIC holding company level.
The difference between IMTTs book and federal taxable income relates to depreciation of terminal fixed assets. For book purposes, these fixed assets are depreciated primarily over 15 to 30 years using the straight-line method of depreciation. For federal income tax purposes, these fixed assets are depreciated primarily over 5 to 15 years using accelerated methods. Most terminal fixed assets placed in service between 2012 through 2016 qualified for the federal 50% bonus tax depreciation. A significant portion of Louisiana terminal fixed assets constructed after Hurricane Katrina were financed with Gulf Opportunity Zone Bonds (GO Zone Bonds). GO Zone Bond financed assets are depreciated, for tax purposes, primarily over 9 to 20 years using the straight-line depreciation method. Most of the states in which the business operates do not allow the use of 50% bonus tax depreciation. However, Louisiana allows the use of 50% bonus depreciation except for assets financed with GO Zone Bonds.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, IMTT incurred maintenance capital expenditures of $2.5 million and $5.3 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, compared with $6.3 million and $8.7 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The decrease in maintenance capital expenditures for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was the result of high tank utilization levels and the timing of planned maintenance for the year. IMTT anticipates making between $30.0 million and $35.0 million of maintenance capital expenditures in 2017.
Atlantic Aviation generates a significant portion of its revenue from sales of jet fuel. Accordingly, revenue can fluctuate significantly based on the cost of the commodity and reported revenue may not reflect the business ability to effectively manage volume and price. For example, an increase in revenue may be attributable to an increase in the cost of the jet fuel and not an increase in the volume sold or price per gallon. Conversely, a decline in revenue may be attributable to a decrease in the cost of jet fuel and not a reduction in the volume sold or price.
Gross margin, which we define as revenue less cost of services, excluding depreciation and amortization, is the effective top line for Atlantic Aviation as it is reflective of the business ability to drive growth in the volume of products and services sold and the margins earned on those sales over time. We similarly believe that our investors view gross margin as reflective of managements performance in managing volume and price throughout the commodity cycle. Gross margin can be reconciled to operating income the most comparable GAAP measure by subtracting selling, general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization in the table below.
| an increase in gross margin; partially offset by |
| higher selling, general and administrative expenses. |

The majority of the revenue and gross margin earned by Atlantic Aviation is generated through fueling GA aircraft at facilities located at the 69 U.S. airports at which Atlantic Aviation operates. The business pursues a strategy of maintaining and, where appropriate, increasing dollar-based margins on fuel sales. Generally, fluctuations in the cost of jet fuel are passed through to the customer.
Revenue and gross margin are driven, in part, by the volume of fuel sold and the dollar-based margin/fee per gallon on those sales. Revenue increased 19.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 as a result of an increase in the volume of fuel sold, a higher wholesale cost of fuel and higher rental and ancillary services revenue. The increase in the wholesale cost of fuel was largely offset by a corresponding increase in cost of services, resulting in an increase in gross margin of 6.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016.
Atlantic Aviation seeks to extend FBO leases prior to their maturity to improve our visibility into the cash generating capacity of these assets. Atlantic Aviation calculates the weighted average lease life based on EBITDA excluding non-cash items in the prior calendar year adjusted for the impact of acquisitions/dispositions. The weighted average lease life was 19.4 years at March 31, 2017 compared with 19.5 years at March 31, 2016, notwithstanding the passage of one year, as a result of successful extensions and acquisition of leaseholds.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 2.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to higher salaries and benefits.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily as a result of assets placed in service during 2016.
Operating income increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 due to the increase in gross margin, partially offset by the increase in depreciation and amortization and selling, general and administrative expenses.
Interest expense includes losses on derivative instruments of $133,000 and $7.7 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Excluding the derivative adjustments, interest expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 due to lower interest rates attributable to the October 2016 refinancing.
Cash interest expense was $4.7 million and $6.9 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 is inclusive of the interest expense related to the $402.5 million of 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due October 2023, proceeds of which were used in part to reduce the drawn balance of Atlantic Aviations revolving credit facility.
The federal taxable income generated by Atlantic Aviation is reported as part of our consolidated federal income tax return. The business files state income tax returns in the states in which it operates. The tax expense in the table above includes both state taxes and the portion of the consolidated federal tax liability attributable to the business.
For the year ending December 31, 2017, the business expects to pay state income taxes of approximately $7.0 million. The Provision for income taxes, net of changes in deferred taxes of $2.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 in the above table includes $1.7 million of state income tax expense and $1.2 million of federal income tax expense. Any current federal income tax payable is expected to be offset in consolidation with the application of NOLs at the MIC holding company level.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2017, Atlantic Aviation incurred maintenance capital expenditures of $925,000 and $1.7 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, compared with $2.3 million both on an accrual basis and cash basis for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Revenue generated by CP decreased by $2.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016. At BEC, revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was lower than the quarter ended March 31, 2016 as a result of lower capacity prices and energy margins. Capacity prices impact only the 37.5% untolled portion of BECs revenue and were lower than in the prior comparable period due to the regional system operators updated capacity requirements. Energy margins for the 37.5% untolled portion were lower as a result of the milder than average weather in January and February 2017. BEC also underwent a required five-year stack emissions test during the first quarter of 2017. The test required the plant to run on fuel oil during specified periods even when uneconomical. The 62.5% of BECs revenue is generated pursuant to a fixed price tolling agreement with a creditworthy off-taker.
Solar and wind output decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to lower wind and solar resources in the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016. For the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, solar resources were approximately 90% and 106%, respectively, of long-term historical average and wind resources were approximately 88% and 94%, respectively, of long-term historical average. The decrease in revenue was partially offset by contributions from an acquisition.
Cost of product sales increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to incremental costs associated with an acquisition completed in December 2016.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to decreases in professional fees, property taxes and salaries and benefits. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses are partially offset by incremental costs associated with an acquisition completed in December 2016.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to incremental expenses associated with an acquisition completed in December 2016.
Other income, net, increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to financing income earned from a third party renewables developer on a revolving credit facility provided by the business.
Interest expense includes gains on derivative instruments of $410,000 and losses on derivative instruments of $13.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Excluding the derivative adjustments, interest expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to debt assumed in an acquisition completed in December 2016, partially offset by lower average debt balances on all other existing facilities. Cash interest expense was $6.8 million and $6.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Our solar and wind facilities are held in limited liability companies that are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. As such, these entities do not pay federal or state income taxes on a standalone basis, but each partner pays federal and state income taxes based on their allocated share of taxable income. For the year ending December 31, 2017, MIC expects its allocated share of the federal taxable income from these facilities to be a loss of approximately $10.0 million. For 2016, MICs allocated share of the federal taxable income from these facilities was a loss of approximately $23.0 million.
The federal taxable income generated by BEC is reported as part of our consolidated federal income tax return and is subject to New York state income tax as part of a combined return. For the year ending December 31, 2017, the business does not expect to have a federal or a state income tax liability. Future current federal taxable income attributable to BEC may be offset in consolidation with the application of NOLs at the MIC holding company level.
CP relies on a small number of suppliers to provide long term operations and maintenance (O&M) and other services for its facilities. One of those O&M providers, SunEdison, Inc. (SunEdison), filed for bankruptcy in April 2016. SunEdison has continued to perform its obligations as an O&M provider, and we expect it to continue to do so. CP has implemented contingency plans to mitigate any potential operational issues that might arise as a result of the inability of SunEdison to provide agreed upon services.
MIC Hawaii comprises Hawaii Gas and several smaller businesses collectively engaged in efforts to reduce the cost and improve the reliability and sustainability of energy in Hawaii. The businesses of MIC Hawaii generate revenue primarily from the provision of gas services to commercial, residential and governmental customers, the generation of power and the design and construction of building mechanical systems.
Hawaii Gas generates a significant portion of its revenue from sales of gas. Accordingly, revenue can fluctuate significantly based on the cost of the commodity and may not reflect the business ability to effectively manage volume and price. For example, an increase in revenue may be attributable to an increase in the cost of gas and not an increase in the volume sold or price per therm. Conversely, a decline in revenue may be attributable to a decrease in the cost of gas and not a reduction in volume sold or price per therm.
Gross margin, which we define as revenue less cost of product sales and services, excluding depreciation and amortization, is the effective top line for Hawaii Gas as it is reflective of the business ability to drive growth in the volume of products and services and the margins earned on those sales over time. We similarly believe that investors utilize gross margin as it is reflective of our performance in managing volume and price throughout the commodity cycle. Gross margin is reconciled to operating income the most comparable GAAP measure by subtracting selling, general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization in the table below.
| contributions from acquisitions; and |
| an increase in the volume of gas sold; partially offset by |
| unrealized losses from commodity hedges; and |
| an increase in selling, general and administrative costs. |

Revenue increased by $19.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to contribution from acquisitions, an increase in the cost of gas and an increase of 4.2% in the volume of gas sold by Hawaii Gas. On an underlying basis, adjusting for changes in customer inventory, the volume of gas sold increased by 1.2% in the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016.
Gross margin decreased by $5.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The decrease is primarily attributable to unrealized losses on commodity hedges of $5.2 million at Hawaii Gas for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with unrealized gains on commodity hedges of $3.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. Gross margin, excluding the impact of unrealized gains and losses on commodity hedges, increased by $3.0 million, or 13.7%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily as a result of acquisitions.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to incremental costs from acquisitions.
Operating income decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 due to the decrease in gross margin, an increase in depreciation and amortization expense and an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Interest expense includes gains on derivative instruments of $156,000 and losses on derivative instruments of $165,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, interest expense also included the non-cash write-off of deferred financing costs at Hawaii Gas related to the refinancing of its $80.0 million term loan and its $60.0 million revolving credit facility. Excluding the derivative adjustments and the write-off of the deferred financing costs, interest expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily attributable to debt assumed from acquisitions and the financing of solar facilities. Cash interest expense was $1.8 million and $1.6 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
The federal taxable income generated by the MIC Hawaii businesses is reported as part of our consolidated federal income tax return and is subject to Hawaii state income tax on a stand-alone basis. The tax expense in the table above includes both state tax and the portion of the consolidated federal tax liability attributable to the businesses. For the year ending December 31, 2017, the business expects to pay state income taxes of approximately $1.5 million. The Provision for income taxes, net of changes in deferred taxes of $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 in the above table, includes $1.2 million of federal income tax expense and $267,000 of state income tax expense. Any current federal income tax payable is expected to be offset in consolidation with the application of NOLs at the MIC holding company level.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2017, MIC Hawaii incurred maintenance capital expenditures of $1.1 million and $1.5 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, compared with $1.8 million and $2.6 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Our primary cash requirements include normal operating expenses, debt service, debt principal payments, payments of dividends and capital expenditures. Our primary source of cash is operating activities, although we may draw on credit facilities for capital expenditures, raise new equity or debt or sell assets to generate cash.
At March 31, 2017, our consolidated debt outstanding totaled $3,180.1 million (excluding adjustments for unamortized debt discounts), our consolidated cash balance totaled $29.6 million and consolidated available capacity under our revolving credit facilities totaled $1,345.0 million.

We will, in general, apply available cash to the repayment of revolving debt balances as a means of minimizing interest expense and draw on those facilities to fund growth projects and for general corporate purposes.
We use revolving credit facilities at each of our operating companies and the holding company as a means of maintaining access to sufficient liquidity to meet future requirements, managing interest expense and funding growth projects. We base our assessment of the sufficiency of our liquidity and capital resources on the assumptions that:
| our businesses overall generate, and are expected to continue to generate, significant operating cash flow; |
| the ongoing capital expenditures associated with our businesses are readily funded from their respective operating cash flow or available debt facilities; and |
| we will be able to refinance, extend and/or repay the principal amount of maturing long-term debt on terms that can be supported by our businesses. |
We capitalize our businesses in part using floating rate bank debt with medium-term maturities between five and seven years. In general, we hedge the floating rate exposure for the majority of the term of these facilities using interest rate derivative instruments. We also use longer dated private placement debt and other forms of capital including bond or hybrid debt instruments to capitalize our businesses. In general, the debt facilities at our businesses are non-recourse to the holding company and there are no cross-collateralization or cross-guarantee provisions in these facilities.
Our solar and wind facilities are financed primarily with fully amortizing non-recourse project finance style debt with maturities prior to or coterminous with the expiration of the underlying PPAs. On a multiple of EBITDA basis, we use a higher initial level of leverage in these projects than our other business segments because of the long-term, wholly contracted nature of the revenue stream and the creditworthiness of the PPA counterparties.
The following section discusses our sources and uses of cash on a consolidated basis. All intercompany activities such as corporate allocations, capital contributions to our businesses and distributions from our businesses have been excluded from the table as these transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

Consolidated cash provided by (used in) operating activities is generally comprised of EBITDA excluding non-cash items (as defined by us), less cash interest, tax and pension payments, and changes in working capital. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations for discussions around the components of EBITDA excluding non-cash items on a consolidated basis and for each of our businesses above.
The decrease in consolidated cash provided by operating activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to:
| absence of insurance recoveries for losses in connection with damaged docks at IMTT; |
| timing of payment of insurance premiums; |
| timing and increased cost of inventory purchases at MIC Hawaii and Atlantic Aviation; and |
21
| an increase in current state taxes; partially offset by |
| an increase in EBITDA excluding non-cash items. |
The drivers of consolidated cash provided by investing activities include proceeds from divestitures of businesses and fixed assets. The drivers of consolidated cash used in investing activities include acquisitions of businesses in new and existing segments and capital expenditures. Acquisitions of businesses are generally funded by raising additional equity and/or drawings on credit facilities.
In general, maintenance capital expenditures are funded by cash from operating activities and growth capital expenditures are funded by drawing on our available credit facilities or with equity capital. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations for maintenance capital expenditures for each of our businesses.
The increase in consolidated cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to drawings from a third party renewables developer on a revolving credit facility provided by our CP business, partially offset by a decrease in capital expenditures.
We invested $51.4 million and $49.4 million of growth capital expenditures in our existing businesses during the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
We continuously evaluate opportunities to deploy capital in both growth projects and in acquisitions of additional businesses, whether as part of our existing businesses or in new lines of business. These opportunities may be significant, such as our acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in IMTT, or they may be ordinary course bolt-on acquisitions, such as an acquisition of an FBO. In aggregate, we currently anticipate deploying approximately $350.0 million in these types of activities in 2017.
In addition, we maintain a backlog of projects that we expect to complete in subsequent periods. We consider projects to be a part of our backlog when we have committed to the deployment of capital for the underlying project, and have, where relevant, received all requisite approvals/authorizations for the deployment of such capital. The inclusion of a project in our backlog does not guarantee that the project will commence, be completed or ultimately generate revenue.
We are actively pursuing an expansion of BEC and have entered into certain agreements, including for the acquisition of generating sets, related to that project. The construction of the additional 130 MW of power generating capacity on land adjacent to BEC is expected to require the deployment of approximately $130.0 million in growth capital, the majority of which is likely to be deployed in 2017. We are also in the process of connecting the BEC facility to a second gas pipeline that runs beneath our IMTT-Bayonne property, which we expect to complete in the second quarter of 2017.
Through May 2, 2017, our backlog of approved growth capital projects was valued at approximately $280.0 million and we have deployed approximately $117.0 million into growth projects and smaller acquisitions by our existing businesses. The amount of capital deployed to date is consistent with our expectation that we will deploy a total of approximately $350.0 million for the full year.
The drivers of cash provided by financing activities primarily include new equity issuance and debt issuance related to acquisitions and capital expenditures. The drivers of cash used in financing activities primarily include repayment of debt principal balances on maturing debt and dividends to our stockholders.
22
The decrease in consolidated cash used in financing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to the increase in net borrowing during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and the absence of the purchase of the remaining 33.3% interest in IMTTs Quebec marine terminal that it did not previously own in March 2016. The decrease in consolidated cash used in financing activities are partially offset by an increase in dividends paid to stockholders during the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, IMTT borrowed $104.0 million and repaid $46.0 million on its revolving credit facility primarily for general corporate purposes. At March 31, 2017, IMTT had $1.2 billion of debt outstanding consisting of $600.0 million of senior notes and $509.0 million of tax-exempt bonds. IMTT has access to $600.0 million of revolving credit facilities, of which $90.0 million was drawn at March 31, 2017. Cash interest expense was $9.7 million and $9.8 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. At March 31, 2017, IMTT was in compliance with its financial covenants.
At March 31, 2017, Atlantic Aviation had total debt outstanding of $429.1 million comprising $397.5 million senior secured, first lien term loan facility and a $1.6 million stand-alone debt facility used to fund construction at a certain FBO. Atlantic Aviation also has access to a $350.0 million senior secured, first lien revolving credit facility, of which $30.0 million was drawn at March 31, 2017. From April 1, 2017, the business drew down an additional $69.5 million to fund an FBO acquisition and for general corporate purposes.
Cash interest expense was $4.7 million and $6.9 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 is inclusive of the interest expense related to the $402.5 million of 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due October 2023, the proceeds of which were used in part to reduce the drawn balance of Atlantic Aviations revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2017, Atlantic Aviation was in compliance with its financial covenants.
At March 31, 2017, the CP segment had $599.2 million in term loans outstanding. Cash interest expense was $6.8 million and $6.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
BEC had $258.5 million of an amortizing term loan facility outstanding and a revolving credit facility of $25.0 million that remained undrawn. Cash interest expense was $2.7 million for both the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. BEC was in compliance with its financial covenants.
The solar and wind facilities had $340.7 million in term loan debt outstanding. Cash interest expense was $4.1 million and $3.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. All of the solar and wind facilities were in compliance with their respective financial covenants.
At March 31, 2017, MIC Hawaii had total debt outstanding of $200.4 million in term loans and senior secured note borrowings and a revolving credit facility of $60.0 million that remained undrawn.

In February 2017, Hawaii Gas exercised the first of two one-year extensions related to its $80.0 million secured term loan facility and its $60.0 million revolving credit facility. The maturities have been extended to February 2022 and no changes were made to any other terms.
The other businesses within MIC Hawaii has $20.4 million in outstanding debt, consisting primarily of $17.4 million term loan debt related to our solar facilities. These businesses were in compliance with their financial covenants.
At March 31, 2017, MIC had $350.0 million and $402.5 million in convertible senior notes outstanding that bear interest at 2.875% and 2.00%, respectively. MIC also had a senior secured revolving credit facility of $410.0 million that remained undrawn. Cash interest expense was $2.8 million for both the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Cash interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 excludes the cash interest expense related to the $402.5 million of 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due October 2023, proceeds of which were used in part to reduce the drawn balance of Atlantic Aviations revolving credit facility. See Atlantic Aviation above. MIC Corporate was in compliance with its financial covenants.

Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed materially from the description contained in our Annual Report.

Our acquisitions of businesses that we control are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The amounts assigned to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with acquisitions are based on estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition, with the remainder, if any, recorded as goodwill. The fair values are determined by our management, taking into consideration information supplied by the management of acquired entities and other relevant information. Such information includes valuations supplied by independent appraisal experts for significant business combinations. The valuations are generally based upon future cash flow projections for the acquired assets, discounted to present value. The determination of fair values require significant judgment both by management and outside experts engaged to assist in this process.
Significant assets acquired in connection with our acquisition of businesses include contract rights, customer relationships, non-compete agreements, trademarks, property and equipment and goodwill.
Trademarks are generally considered to be indefinite life intangibles. Trademarks and goodwill are not amortized in most circumstances. It may be appropriate to amortize some trademarks. However, for unamortized intangible assets, we are required to perform annual impairment reviews and more frequently in certain circumstances.
ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting units fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test, as discussed below. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform the two-step impairment test.
If an entity concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it needs to perform the two-step impairment test. This requires management to make judgments in determining what assumptions to use in the calculation. The first step of the process consists of estimating the fair value of each reporting unit based on a discounted cash flow model using revenue and profit forecasts and comparing those estimated fair values with the carrying values, which includes the allocated goodwill. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to compute the amount of the impairment by determining an implied fair value of goodwill. The determination of a reporting units implied fair value of goodwill requires the allocation of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. Any unallocated fair value represents the implied fair value of goodwill, which is compared with its corresponding carrying value. IMTT, Atlantic Aviation, CP and the MIC Hawaii businesses are separate reporting units for purposes of this analysis. The impairment test for trademarks, which are not amortized, requires the determination of the fair value of such assets. If the fair value of the trademarks is less than their carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the difference. We cannot predict the occurrence of certain future events that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill and/or intangible assets. Such events include, but are not limited to, strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions, the impact of the economic environment on our customer base, or material negative change in relationship with significant customers.
Property and equipment is initially stated at cost. Depreciation on property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment after consideration of historical results and anticipated results based on our current plans. Our estimated useful lives represent the period the asset remains in service assuming normal routine maintenance. We review the estimated useful lives assigned to property and equipment when our business experience suggests that they do not properly reflect the consumption of economic benefits embodied in the property and equipment nor result in the appropriate matching of cost against revenue. Factors that lead to such a conclusion may include physical observation of asset usage, examination of realized gains and losses on asset disposals and consideration of market trends such as technological obsolescence or change in market demand.
25
Significant intangibles, including contract rights, customer relationships, non-compete agreements and technology are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the intangible asset after consideration of historical results and anticipated results based on our current plans. With respect to contractual rights at Atlantic Aviation, the useful lives will generally match the remaining lease terms plus extensions under the business control.
We perform impairment reviews of property and equipment and intangibles subject to amortization, when events or circumstances indicate that assets are less than their carrying amount and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount of those assets. In this circumstance, the impairment charge is determined based upon the amount by which the net book value of the assets exceeds their fair market value. Any impairment is measured by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying value.
The implied fair value of reporting units and fair value of property and equipment and intangible assets is determined by our management and is generally based upon future cash flow projections for the acquired assets, discounted to present value. We use outside valuation experts when management considers that it is appropriate to do so.
We test for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually as of October 1st or when there is an indicator of impairment.
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Part II, Item 7A Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since February 21, 2017, the filing date for our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Under the direction and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The purpose of disclosure controls is to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2017.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation is a Delaware corporation formed on May 21, 2015. MICs predecessor, Macquarie Infrastructure Company LLC, was formed on April 13, 2004. Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation, both on an individual entity basis and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, is referred to in these financial statements as the Company or MIC.
MIC is externally managed by Macquarie Infrastructure Management (USA) Inc. (the Manager) pursuant to the terms of a Management Services Agreement that is subject to the oversight and supervision of the Board of Directors. The majority of the members of the Board of Directors have no affiliation with Macquarie. The Manager is a member of the Macquarie Group of companies comprising the Macquarie Group Limited and its subsidiaries and affiliates worldwide. Macquarie Group Limited is headquartered in Australia and is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange.
The Company owns its businesses through its direct wholly-owned subsidiary MIC Ohana Corporation, the successor to Macquarie Infrastructure Company Inc. The Company owns and operates a diversified portfolio of businesses that provide services to other businesses, government agencies and individuals primarily in the U.S. The businesses it owns and operates are organized into four segments:
| International-Matex Tank Terminals (IMTT): a marine terminals business providing bulk liquid storage, handling and other services to third parties at ten terminals in the United States and two in Canada; |
| Atlantic Aviation: a provider of fuel, terminal, aircraft hangaring and other services primarily to owners and operators of general aviation (GA) jet aircraft at 69 airports throughout the U.S.; |
| Contracted Power (CP): comprising a gas-fired facility and controlling interests in wind and solar facilities in the U.S.; and |
| MIC Hawaii: comprising an energy company that processes and distributes gas and provides related services (Hawaii Gas), and several smaller businesses collectively engaged in efforts to reduce the cost and improve the reliability and sustainability of energy, all based in Hawaii. |
The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been derived from audited financial statements but does not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain reclassifications were made to the financial statements for the prior period to conform to current period presentation.
The interim financial information contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 21, 2017. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or for any future interim periods.
33
The preparation of unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure related thereto at the date of the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from estimates.
On January 26, 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the measurement of goodwill subsequent to a business combination, and no longer requires an entity to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation when computing implied fair value to measure goodwill impairment. Instead, impairment will be assessed by quantifying the difference between the fair value of a reporting unit and its carrying amount. An impairment charge would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting units fair value, on condition that the charge doesnt exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 for public issuers and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will evaluate this ASU prospectively as part of its goodwill impairment testing when it adopts the provisions of this ASU.
On January 5, 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides a restrictive framework for determining whether business transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Determining whether a Company acquires a set of assets or a business will impact the initial measurement, the accounting treatment of direct acquisition related costs, contingent considerations and the bargain purchase price. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017 for public issuers and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will evaluate this ASU prospectively on asset acquisitions and business combinations when it adopts the provisions of this ASU.
On November 17, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires companies to show the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. This reconciliation can be presented either on the face of the statement of cash flows or in the notes to the financial statements. The guidance will be applied retrospectively and is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will include appropriate disclosures related to restricted cash in accordance with the standard when it adopts the provisions of this ASU.
On February 25, 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, ASU 2016-02 will require all leases with an initial term greater than one year to be recognized on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability.
34
The Company also serves as a lessor primarily through operating leases. The accounting for lessors is not expected to fundamentally change except for changes to conform and align existing guidance to the lessee guidance under ASU 2016-02, as well as to the new revenue recognition guidance in ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is allowed. The standard is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company has begun evaluating and planning for the adoption and implementation of ASU 2016-02, including assessing the overall impact. ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated balance sheets; however, the full impact to the overall financial statements has not yet been determined. The impact on the Companys results of operations is being evaluated. The impact of this ASU is non-cash in nature and will not affect the Companys cash position.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The new guidance sets forth a five-step revenue recognition model which replaces the current revenue recognition guidance in its entirety and is intended to eliminate numerous industry-specific pieces of revenue recognition guidance and requires more detailed disclosures. To further assist with adoption and implementation of ASU 2014-09, the FASB issued the following ASUs:
| ASU 2015-14 (Issued August 2015) Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date; |
| ASU 2016-08 (Issued March 2016) Principal versus Agent Consideration (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net); |
| ASU 2016-10 (Issued April 2016) Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing; |
| ASU 2016-12 (Issued May 2016) Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients; and |
| ASU 2016-20 (Issued December 2016) Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. |
With the deferral, the new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2018.
There are two adoption methods available for implementation of the standard related to the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. Under one method, the new guidance is applied retrospectively to contracts for each reporting period presented, subject to allowable practical expedients. Under the other method, the new guidance is applied only to the most current period presented, recognizing the cumulative effect of the change as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings, and also requires additional disclosures comparing the results to the previous guidance. The Company is going to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method and is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on the Companys consolidated financial statements, and the changes to its systems, processes and internal controls to meet the reporting and disclosure requirements.
Upon initial evaluation, the Company believes key changes in the standard that impact the Companys revenue recognition relate to the allocation of contract revenue between various services and equipment, and the timing of when those revenue are recognized. The Company is still in the process of evaluating these impacts and other areas of the standard and its effect on the Companys financial statements and related disclosures. The Company currently includes sales, excise and value-added taxes related to sales transactions within revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. Upon adoption of ASU 2014-09, the Company will exclude sales-based taxes collected on behalf of third parties from service and product revenue and include these amounts in cost of services and product sales. The result will be a reclassification on the consolidated statements of operations.
35
ASU 2014-09 also introduces new qualitative and quantitative disclosure requirements about contracts with customers including revenue and impairments recognized, disaggregation of revenue and information about contract balance and performance obligations. Information is required about significant judgments and changes in judgments in determining the timing of satisfaction of performance obligations. Additionally, the Company is in the process of evaluating what additional information will be disclosed, but expects the overall level of disclosures related to revenue recognition to increase.
On July 22, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. The ASU defines net realizable value as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The ASU will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or the retail inventory method. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has adopted this ASU and determined that it had an immaterial impact to the Companys financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The effect of potentially dilutive shares for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 is calculated assuming that the restricted stock unit grants totaling 8,604 (net of forfeitures of 2,151 restricted stock unit grants forfeited on September 30, 2016) provided to the independent directors on May 18, 2016 and restricted stock units grants of 991 provided to a new independent director on November 1, 2016, which will all vest during the second quarter of 2017, had been fully converted to shares on those grant dates. The 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes due July 2019 and the 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due October 2023 were anti-dilutive for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

The effect of potentially dilutive shares for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 is calculated assuming that (i) the restricted stock unit grants totaling 8,660 provided to the independent directors on June 18, 2015, which vested during the second quarter of 2016, had been fully converted to shares on the grant date and (ii) the $67.8 million of the performance fee for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, which was reinvested in shares by the Manager on August 1, 2016, had been reinvested in shares by the Manager in July 2015. The 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes due July 2019 that were issued on July 15, 2014 were anti-dilutive for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

The Company and certain of its businesses have in place variable-rate debt. Management believes that it is prudent to limit the variability of a portion of the business interest payments. To meet this objective, the Company enters into interest rate agreements, primarily using interest rate swaps and from time to time using interest rate caps, to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk on a portion of its debt with a variable-rate component. Interest rate swaps change the variable-rate cash flow exposure on the debt obligations to fixed cash flows. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps, the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments, thereby creating the equivalent of fixed-rate debt for the portion of the debt that is swapped.
At March 31, 2017, the Company had $3.2 billion of current and long-term debt, of which $1.4 billion was economically hedged with interest rate contracts, $1.6 billion was fixed rate debt and $128.2 million was unhedged. The Company does not use hedge accounting. All movements in the fair value of the interest rate derivatives are recorded directly through earnings.
The risk associated with fluctuations in the prices at Hawaii Gas, a business within the MIC Hawaii reportable segment, pays for propane is principally a result of market forces reflecting changes in supply and demand for propane and other energy commodities. Hawaii Gas gross margin (revenue less cost of product sales excluding depreciation and amortization) is sensitive to changes in propane supply costs and Hawaii Gas may not always be able to pass through product cost increases fully or on a timely basis, particularly when product costs rise rapidly. In order to reduce the volatility of the business propane market price risk, Hawaii Gas has used and expects to continue to use over-the-counter commodity derivative instruments including price swaps. Hawaii Gas does not use commodity derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Over-the-counter derivative commodity instruments used by Hawaii Gas to hedge forecasted purchases of propane are generally settled at expiration of the contract.
The Company measures derivative instruments at fair value using the income approach which discounts the future net cash settlements expected under the derivative contracts to a present value. These valuations utilize primarily observable (level 2) inputs, including contractual terms, interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals.
The Companys fair value measurements of its derivative instruments and the related location of the assets and liabilities within the consolidated condensed balance sheets at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were ($ in thousands):

At March 31, 2017, the Companys businesses consist of four reportable segments: IMTT, Atlantic Aviation, CP and MIC Hawaii.
IMTT provides bulk liquid storage, handling and other services in North America through ten terminals located in the United States, one terminal in Quebec, Canada and one partially owned terminal in Newfoundland, Canada. IMTT derives the majority of its revenue from storage and handling of petroleum products, various chemicals, renewable fuels, and vegetable and animal oils. Based on storage capacity, IMTT operates one of the largest third-party bulk liquid terminals businesses in the United States. Revenue from IMTT is included in service revenue.
Atlantic Aviation derives the majority of its revenue from fuel delivery services and from other airport services, including de-icing and aircraft hangar rental. All of the revenue of Atlantic Aviation is generated at airports in the U.S. At March 31, 2017, the business operates at 69 airports. Revenue from Atlantic Aviation is included in service revenue.
The CP business segment derives revenue from solar, wind and gas-fired power facilities. Revenue from the solar, wind and gas-fired power facilities are included in product revenue. As of March 31, 2017, the Company has controlling interests in six utility-scale solar photovoltaic facilities, two wind facilities and 100% ownership of a gas-fired facility that are located in the United States.
42
The solar and wind facilities that are operational at March 31, 2017 have an aggregate generating capacity of 340 megawatt (MW) of wholesale electricity to utilities. These facilities sell substantially all of the electricity generated, subject to agreed upon pricing formulas, to electric utilities pursuant to long-term (typically 20 25 years) power purchase agreements (PPAs). These projects are held in LLCs, and are treated as partnerships for income tax purposes, with co-investors. The acquisition price on these projects can vary depending on, among other things, factors such as the size of the project, PPA terms, eligibility for tax incentives, debt package, operating cost structure and development stage. A completed project takes out all of the construction risk, testing and costs associated with construction contracts.
The Company has certain rights to make decisions over the management and operations of these solar and wind facilities. The Company has determined that it is appropriate to consolidate these projects, with the co-investors interest reflected as noncontrolling interests in the consolidated condensed financial statements.
The Company owns 100% of Bayonne Energy Center (BEC), a 512 MW gas-fired facility located in Bayonne, New Jersey, adjacent to IMTTs Bayonne facility. BEC has tolling agreements with a creditworthy off-taker for 62.5% of its power generating capacity and power produced is delivered to New York City via a dedicated transmission cable under New York Harbor. The tolling agreements generate revenue whether or not the facility is in use for power production. In addition to revenue related to the tolling agreement and capacity payments from the grid operator, BEC generates an energy margin when the facility is dispatched.
MIC Hawaii comprises: Hawaii Gas, Hawaiis only government-franchised gas utility and an unregulated liquefied petroleum gas distribution business providing gas and related services to commercial, residential and governmental customers; a mechanical contractor focused on designing and constructing energy efficient and related building infrastructure; and controlling interests in renewable and distributed power facilities including two facilities on Oahu. Revenue from Hawaii Gas and the renewable power facilities are recorded in product revenue. Revenue from the mechanical contractor business is recorded in service revenue.
Revenue from the Hawaii Gas business is generated from the distribution and sales of synthetic natural gas (SNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG). Revenue is primarily a function of the volume of SNG, LPG and LNG consumed by customers and the price per thermal unit or gallon charged to customers. Revenue levels, without organic growth, will generally track global commodity prices, namely petroleum and natural gas, as its products are derived from these commodities.
All of the MIC business segments are managed separately and management has chosen to organize the Company around the distinct products and services offered. Selected information by segment is presented in the following tables.
