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 is the successor to Macquarie Infrastructure Company LLC (MIC LLC) pursuant to the conversion (the Conversion) of MIC LLC from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware corporation on May 21, 2015. MIC 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 (i) from and after the time of the Conversion, to Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation and its subsidiaries and (ii) prior to the Conversion, to our predecessor MIC LLC and its subsidiaries. Except as otherwise specified, all references in this Form 10-Q to common stock or shares refer (i) from and after the time of the Conversion, to common stock and (ii) prior to the Conversion, LLC interests. Macquarie Infrastructure Management (USA) Inc., which we refer to as our Manager, is part of the Macquarie Group, comprised of Macquarie Group Limited and its subsidiaries and affiliates worldwide.
We own, operate and invest in a diversified group of businesses that provide services to other businesses, government agencies and individuals primarily in the U.S. The businesses we own and operate include:
| International-Matex Tank Terminals (IMTT): a bulk liquid terminals business which provides bulk liquid storage, handling and other services to third parties at ten marine 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) aircraft on 68 airports in the U.S.; |
| Contracted Power and Energy (CP&E) Segment: controlling interests in gas-fired, wind and solar power facilities in the U.S.; and |
| Hawaii Gas: a gas energy company processing and distributing gas and providing related services 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 analyzing the financial condition and results of operations of our businesses, we focus primarily on cash generation and our ability to distribute cash to shareholders in particular. The ability of our businesses to generate cash, broadly, is tied to their ability to effectively manage the volume of products sold or services provided and the margin earned on those transactions. Offsetting that cash generation capability are required payments on debt facilities, cash taxes, capital expenditures necessary to maintain the productivity of the fixed assets of the businesses and pension contributions, among other items.
At IMTT, we focus on providing bulk liquid storage for 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 refueling and other services from our fixed base operations (FBOs). Atlantic Aviations revenue 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&E segment generate revenue pursuant primarily to long-dated power purchase agreements (PPAs) and tolling agreements with creditworthy power off-takers.
1
At Hawaii Gas, we focus on the provision of gas services to commercial, residential and governmental customers throughout the islands of Hawaii and seek to grow by increasing the number of customers served, the volume of gas sold and the margins achieved on gas sales. Hawaii Gas actively markets its products and services in an effort to develop new customers throughout Hawaii.
Since January 1, 2015, MIC has paid or declared the following dividends:

Fourth quarter 2014 | $ | 1.02 | March 2, 2015 | March 5, 2015 |
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 $1.20 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, or a 4.3% increase over the dividend for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 and 12.1% increase over the dividend for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. 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 shareholders 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.
The payment of a dividend is supported by the Free Cash Flow generated by our businesses. We define Free Cash Flow as cash from operating activities, which reflects 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. For the avoidance of doubt, base management fees and performance fees, if any, are excluded from the calculation of Free Cash Flow whether paid in cash or stock. Over the long term, we believe we will distribute between 75% and 85% of the Free Cash Flow generated by our businesses as a cash dividend.
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 and Free Cash Flow and Summary of Our Proportionately Combined Results for further information on our calculation of Free Cash Flow and our proportionately combined financial measures in Part I of this Form 10-Q.

(1) | Interest expense includes losses on derivative instruments of $32.2 million and $12.9 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. |
Consolidated gross profit increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily reflecting the contribution from the acquisition of BEC and improved results at Atlantic Aviation, the renewable portion of our CP&E business and Hawaii Gas.
3
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily as a result of the BEC acquisition and increases at Atlantic Aviation and IMTT, partially offset by a reduction of costs at MIC Corporate, primarily due to the Conversion costs incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, and the renewable portion of our CP&E business.
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 shareholder return relative to a U.S. utilities index. For the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we incurred base management fees of $14.8 million and $16.5 million, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, we also incurred a performance fee of $148.7 million as compared with no performance fee for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. In accordance with the Third Amended and Restated Management Service Agreement, unless our Manager changes its current election, base management fees and performance fees, if any, are reinvested in additional shares of MIC.
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 the consolidated condensed balance sheets. The following table shows our Managers reinvestment of its base management fees and performance fees, if any, in shares, except as noted:

(1) | Our Manager elected to reinvest all of the monthly base management fees for the first quarter of 2016 in shares. We issued 234,179 shares for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, including 78,015 shares that were issued in April 2016 for the March 2016 monthly base management fee. |
(2) | In July 2015, our Board requested, and our Manager agreed, that $67.8 million of the performance fee for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 be settled in cash in July 2015 to minimize dilution. The remaining $67.8 million obligation was deferred until July 2016. |
Depreciation expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily as a result of the absence of non-cash impairments at Atlantic Aviation, partially offset by the depreciation associated with BEC and FBOs acquired at Atlantic Aviation.
Amortization of intangibles decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily as a result of the absence of non-cash impairments at Atlantic Aviation, partially offset by the amortization of intangibles associated with BEC.
4
Interest expense includes losses on derivative instruments of $32.2 million and $12.9 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. 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 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 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 increased primarily due to the debt associated with BEC and higher average debt balance at both IMTT and MIC Corporate, partially offset by lower average debt balance at both the renewable portion of our CP&E business and Atlantic Aviation due to the scheduled amortization of these facilities.
We file a consolidated federal income tax return that includes the financial results for IMTT, Atlantic Aviation, BEC, Hawaii Gas and our allocable share of the taxable income (loss) from our solar and wind power facilities, which are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. Pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, the individual businesses included in our consolidated federal income tax return pay MIC an amount equal to the federal income taxes each would have paid on a standalone basis as if they were not part of the MIC consolidated federal income tax return.
The change from income tax benefit for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 to income tax expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 is primarily due to the expense associated with the performance fee incurred during the first quarter of 2015.
For 2016, we expect any consolidated federal income tax liability to be fully offset by our net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards. We believe that we will be able to utilize all of our federal prior year NOLs. Our federal NOL balance at December 31, 2015 was $426.2 million. As a result of having federal NOL carryforwards, together with planned tax strategies, we do not expect to make regular federal tax payments until the second half of 2019. For the year ending December 31, 2016, we expect to report a current year taxable income of approximately $100.0 million and pay approximately $2.0 million in Alternative Minimum Tax.
Absent acquisitions and/or divestitures, we expect that our effective tax rate would be higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily because of state and local income taxes. For 2016, we expect to pay state income taxes of approximately $10.2 million. In calculating our consolidated state income tax provision, we have provided a valuation allowance for certain state income tax NOL carryforwards, the utilization of which is not more likely than not.
On December 18, 2015, President Obama signed bill HR 2029, the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act (PATH Act), into law. 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 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.
5
We have disclosed EBITDA excluding non-cash items for our Company and each of our operating segments in Note 9, Reportable Segments, in our consolidated condensed financial statements, as a key performance metric relied on by management in evaluating our performance. EBITDA excluding non-cash items is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and non-cash items, which includes impairments, derivative gains and losses and adjustments for other non-cash items 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. We believe EBITDA excluding non-cash items provides additional insight into the performance of our operating businesses relative to each other and to similar businesses without regard to their capital structure, and to their ability to service or reduce debt, fund capital expenditures and/or support distributions to the holding company.
We also disclose Free Cash Flow, as defined by us, as a means of assessing the amount of cash generated by our businesses and supplementing other information provided in accordance with GAAP. We define Free Cash Flow as cash from operating activities, 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 believe that reporting Free Cash Flow will provide our investors with additional insight into our future ability to deploy cash, as GAAP metrics such as net income and cash from operating activities do not reflect all of the items that our management considers in determining the amount of cash generated by our operating entities. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have disclosed Free Cash Flow for our consolidated results and for each of our operating segments.
We note that Free Cash Flow does not fully reflect our ability to freely deploy generated cash, as it does not reflect required payments to be made on our indebtedness and other fixed obligations or the other cash items excluded when calculating Free Cash Flow. We also note that Free Cash Flow may be calculated in a different manner by other companies, which limits its usefulness as a comparative measure. Therefore, our Free Cash Flow should be used as a supplemental measure and not in lieu of our financial results reported under GAAP.

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 had at the end of the first quarter in 2016 a weighted average remaining life of approximately two and half years.
In the first half of 2015, customers within the petroleum product category sought to enter into contracts with shorter durations than had been the case historically. That trend reversed in the second half of the year when customers entered into contracts with durations that were slightly longer, on average, than those that had been entered into in the first half. Contracts entered into in the first quarter of 2016 included, on average, durations largely the same as those entered into in the second half of 2015.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, total revenue decreased by $2.6 million compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2015, primarily as a result of: a reduction in heating revenue attributable to the warmer winter weather in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015; a reduced level of spill response activity on the part of IMTTs subsidiary OMI Environmental Solutions (OMI); a decrease in rail services revenue principally in connection with the reduction in demand for Canadian crude oil in the U.S.; and the weakening of the Canadian Dollar relative to the U.S. Dollar and its impact on contributions from IMTTs interests in two terminals in Canada. These reductions in total revenue were partially offset by an increase in revenue from firm commitments attributable to higher utilization rates. Revenue from firm commitments comprised approximately 81.3% of total revenue in the first quarter of 2016.
Capacity utilization was higher than historically normal levels at 96.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with 95.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The business expects utilization rates to revert to historical levels of 94% to 96% in the medium term.
The financial performance of OMI is variable based on the number and size of oil clean-up activities in which the business is involved. The contribution from OMI to IMTTs annual financial results has been as much as approximately $60.0 million in 2010, as a result of the firms involvement in the clean-up of the Macondo oil spill on the Gulf Coast. Excluding 2010, it has averaged less than a few million dollars per year during the period of our involvement in the business going back to 2006. In the first quarter of 2016, OMI generated negative earnings in an amount larger than the average annual contribution from the business.
Costs were 4.6% lower in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The reduction in costs was primarily the result of lower fuel costs; lower costs associated with OMI, as a result of lower level of spill related activity; and improved cost controls and the realization of efficiencies following the IMTT Acquisition.
IMTT and its customers maintain insurance against the loss of use or damage to IMTTs facilities. The business incurred losses in connection with damage done to various docks, at both the Gretna and Bayonne facilities, among other matters, in part as a result of the high level and flow of the Mississippi River in late 2015 and early 2016. Insurance recoveries of approximately $2.5 million were recorded during the first quarter of 2016.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily due to additional depreciation recorded in 2015 related to the fair value step up of assets resulting from the IMTT Acquisition.
Interest expense includes losses on derivative instruments of $10.8 million and $2.1 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Excluding the derivative adjustments, interest expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 due to a higher average debt balance partially offset by lower interest rates. The weighted average interest rate on all outstanding debt facilities, including any interest rate swaps, was 3.39% at March 31, 2016.
Cash interest paid totaled $3.5 million and $9.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Cash interest paid was lower in 2016 compared with 2015 primarily due to the timing of interest payments on the senior notes, which are paid semiannually.
For 2016, the business expects to pay state income taxes of approximately $5.0 million. The Provision for income taxes, net of changes in deferred taxes of $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 in the above table includes $1.0 million of state income taxes and $213,000 of federal income taxes payable to MIC. Any current federal income taxes payable is expected to be offset in consolidation with the application of MICs NOLs.
A significant difference between IMTTs book and federal taxable income relates to depreciation of terminalling 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 terminalling fixed assets placed in service between 2012 through 2015 did or should qualify for the federal 50% bonus tax depreciation. A significant portion of Louisiana terminalling fixed assets constructed after Hurricane Katrina was 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, and do not qualify for bonus depreciation. 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.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, IMTT incurred maintenance capital expenditures of $6.3 million and $8.7 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, compared with $2.5 million and $5.0 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The increase in maintenance capital expenditures for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was a result of lower spending in the first quarter of 2015 as IMTT was implementing processes and procedures around cost controls and maintenance capital expenditure planning. IMTT anticipates deploying between $30.0 million and $35.0 million in maintenance capital expenditures for 2016, which is expected to be more evenly spent throughout the year.

The majority of the revenue and gross profit earned by Atlantic Aviation is generated through fueling GA aircraft at facilities located on 68 U.S. airports at which Atlantic Aviation operates. The business generally pursues a strategy of maintaining and, where appropriate, increasing dollar-based margins. Generally, fluctuations in the cost of fuel are passed through to the customer.
Revenue and gross profit are driven by the volume of fuel sold and the dollar-based margin/fee per gallon on those sales. Despite an increase in the volume of fuel sold, primarily as a result of increased flight activity, revenues decreased in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 as a result of a significant decline in the wholesale cost of fuel charged to customers. However, the decline in cost more than offsets the decline in the price to customers. On a same store basis, gross profit increased 2.8% in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 driven by an increase in fuel gross profit and hangar rentals, partially offset by lower deicing gross profit due to relatively warmer winter weather.
Atlantic Aviation seeks to extend FBO leases prior to their maturity and to increase the portfolios weighted average lease life. The weighted average lease life increased to 19.5 years at March 31, 2016 compared with 18.7 years at March 31, 2015, notwithstanding the passage of one year, as a result of successful extension and acquisition of leaseholds.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily due to higher professional fees and higher salaries and benefit costs. On a same store basis, costs were 1.1% higher in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily as a result of the absence of non-cash impairments, partially offset by the depreciation associated with FBOs acquired at Atlantic Aviation.
Interest expense includes losses on derivative instruments of $7.7 million and $7.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Excluding the derivative adjustments, interest expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 due to lower average debt balances. The weighted average interest rate on all outstanding debt facilities, including any interest rate swaps, was 4.63% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid was $6.9 million and $7.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The federal taxable income generated by Atlantic Aviation is filed 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 2016, the business expects to pay state income taxes of approximately $3.5 million. The Provision/benefit for income taxes, net of changes in deferred taxes of $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 in the above table includes $872,000 of state income taxes and $580,000 of federal income taxes payable to MIC. Any current federal income taxes payable is expected to be offset in consolidation with the application of MICs NOLs.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, Atlantic Aviation incurred maintenance capital expenditures of $2.3 million both on an accrual basis and cash basis compared with $2.6 million and $2.9 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Maintenance capital expenditures for the periods presented were primarily to fund replacement of equipment at existing locations.

Total revenue and gross profit increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 due to the acquisition of BEC and improved solar and wind output. During the first quarter of 2016, our solar resource was approximately 106% of long term average and wind resource was approximately 94% of long term average.
Unseasonably warm weather in the first quarter of 2016 compared with the first quarter in 2015 had a negative impact on our BEC business in the Northeast, but had a positive impact on our solar and wind facilities in the Northwest and Southwest. The relatively mild weather in the Northeast reduced revenue from the untolled portion of BEC relative to our expectations as the peaking power generating capacity of the facility was dispatched less frequently. A year over year increase in both wind and solar resources in the West resulted in improved performance by our renewable power facilities.
The capacity prices that cleared the New York Independent System Operators (NYISO) Summer 2016 seasonal Strip Auction for Zone J for the six months from May 2016 through October 2016 were lower relative to the comparable period in 2015. The monthly Spot Auction price that cleared for May 2016 was also lower relative to the comparable period in 2015, but higher than the price that cleared for the full six-month Summer 2016 strip. The reduction will result in lower potential earnings from the untolled portion of BECs revenue. We believe that the reduction in prices was largely the result of the NYISO changing assumptions related to the required proportion of in-market generation in its reliability and pricing formula as well as a revised lower forecast for peak power demand in the summer of 2016. Such changes in input assumptions by the NYISO have generated volatility in capacity prices historically and we expect additional changes, both favorable and unfavorable, will do so in the future.
The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was driven primarily by incremental selling, general and administrative expenses associated with BEC.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily as a result of depreciation and amortization associated with BEC.
Interest expense includes losses on derivative instruments of $13.2 million and $2.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Excluding the derivative adjustments, interest expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 due to incremental interest expense associated with BECs credit facility offset by lower average debt balance and interest rate at the renewable portion of this business. The weighted average interest rate on all outstanding debt facilities, including any interest rate swaps, was 4.32% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid totaled $6.2 million and $2.3 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Our solar and wind power facilities are held in LLCs 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 2016, MIC expects its allocated share of the federal taxable income from these facilities to be a loss of approximately $25.0 million. For 2015, MICs allocated share of the taxable income from the solar and wind power facilities was a loss of approximately $36.0 million.
On April 1, 2015, we acquired 100% of BEC. The federal taxable income generated by BEC is filed as part of our consolidated federal income tax return and is subject to New York state income taxes on a stand-alone basis. For 2016, the business does not expect to have a state income tax liability. We do not believe that the business will generate a current federal income tax liability in 2016. Future current federal taxable income attributable to BEC may be offset in consolidation with the application of MICs NOLs.

Volume of gas sold increased by 1.3% in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015. On an underlying basis, adjusting for changes in customer inventory, volume of gas sold increased by 4.5%. Excluding the impact of unrealized gains and losses on commodity hedges, gross profit increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015, primarily due to the increase in the volume of gas sold and decrease in costs.
Hawaii Gas continues to implement strategies to mitigate the volatility and price of its fuel supply, including hedging, storage expansion and the diversification of the supply base. The business currently sources feedstock for its synthetic natural gas (SNG) plant from Hawaii Independent Energy under a contract that expires September 28, 2016. On April 4, 2016, Hawaii Gas received Hawaii Public Utilities Commission (HPUC) approval to utilize liquefied natural gas as a replacement for up to 30% of SNG production. In its Order, the HPUC noted that, Fuel diversity can both insulate customers from volatility in oil prices and ensure continued service in the event of a local naphtha shortage. Also during the first quarter, the business completed the acquisition of the land under its SNG plant which removes uncertainty with regards to site control and provides flexibility with regards to future operations.
Interest expense includes losses on derivative instruments of $563,000 and $720,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Excluding the derivative adjustments and the write-off of the deferred financing costs related to the February 2016 refinancing, interest expense decreased for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The decrease is due to the refinancing of the businesss $80.0 million term loan and $60.0 million revolving credit facility. The new facilities include a reduction in interest rates on the term loan and revolving credit facilities of 0.50% and 0.25%, respectively, compared with the prior facilities. The weighted average interest rate on all outstanding debt facilities, including any interest rate swaps, was 3.41% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid totaled $2.6 million and $2.7 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The federal taxable income generated by Hawaii Gas is filed as part of our consolidated federal income tax return and is subject to Hawaii state income taxes on a stand-alone basis. 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, 2016, the business expects to pay state income taxes of approximately $1.7 million. The Provision for income taxes, net of changes in deferred taxes of $3.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 in the above table, includes $2.4 million of federal income taxes payable to MIC and $593,000 of state income taxes. Any current federal income taxes payable is expected to be offset in consolidation with the application of MICs NOLs.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, Hawaii Gas incurred maintenance capital expenditures of $1.8 million and $2.6 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, compared with $1.0 million and $3.4 million on an accrual basis and cash basis, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Maintenance capital expenditures for the periods presented were primarily for transmission line modifications and vehicle replacements. For 2016, the business expects maintenance capital expenditures, net of customer reimbursements, to be weighted more to the first half of the year compared with 2015.

The proportionately combined financial measures below are those attributable to MICs ownership interest in each of our operating businesses and MIC Corporate. Given the nature of the businesses we own and our varied ownership levels of these businesses, management believes that GAAP measures such as net income and cash from operating activities do not fully reflect all of the items that our management considers in assessing the amount of cash generated by our ownership interest in our businesses. We note that proportionately combined metrics used by us may be calculated in a different manner by other companies, which may limit their usefulness as a comparative measure. Therefore, our proportionately combined metrics should be used as a supplement to, and not in lieu of, our financial results reported under GAAP. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for a reconciliation of EBITDA excluding non-cash items to net income (loss), and a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to cash provided by (used in) operating activities for each of our operating businesses and MIC Corporate ($ in thousands) (unaudited).

(1) | On March 31, 2016, IMTT acquired the remaining 33.3% interest in its Quebec terminal that it did not previously own. IMTT was previously providing management services to this terminal and no operational changes are expected. Prior to the acquisition, IMTT consolidated the results of the Quebec terminal in its financial statements and adjusted for the portion that it did not own through noncontrolling interests. Since the IMTT Acquisition in July 2014 and prior to the acquisition of the noncontrolling interest, MIC reported IMTTs EBITDA excluding non-cash items and Free Cash Flow including the 33.3% portion of the Quebec terminal. The contribution from the minority interest was not significant. Therefore, there are no changes to our historical EBITDA excluding non-cash items, Free Cash Flow or results generally as a function of acquiring this noncontrolling interest. |
(2) | Proportionately combined Free Cash Flow for Contracted Power and Energy is equal to MICs controlling ownership interest in its solar and wind power facilities. As of April 1, 2015, Contracted Power and Energy also includes 100% of BEC, a gas-fired power facility. |
(3) | Proportionately combined Free Cash Flow is equal to the sum of Free Cash Flow attributable to MICs ownership interest in each of its operating businesses and MIC Corporate. |
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, issue additional shares or sell assets to generate cash.
At March 31, 2016, our consolidated debt outstanding totaled $2,849.6 million, our consolidated cash balances totaled $22.5 million and total available capacity under our revolving credit facilities totaled $1,125.0 million. In April 2016, we paid down $10.0 million on the senior secured revolving credit facility at MIC Corporate resulting in an increase to total available capacity under our revolving credit facilities to $1,135.0 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.
20
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 are capitalized in part using floating rate bank debt with a medium-term maturity of between five and seven years. We hedge a portion of 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 bank, 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.
Six of our solar and wind facilities are financed through standalone fully amortizing non-recourse project finance structures which have maturities prior to or coterminous with the expiration of the underlying PPAs for each of those facilities. On a multiple of EBITDA basis, we use a higher initial level of leverage in these projects than at BEC or 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 tables as these transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

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.
21
The increase in consolidated cash provided by operating activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to:
| improved EBITDA excluding non-cash items; |
| contribution from the BEC acquisition; and |
| favorable working capital change due to lower cost of fuel; partially offset by |
| increase in current state taxes; and |
| increase in cash interest expense. |
The drivers of cash provided by investing activities primarily include proceeds from divestitures of businesses and fixed assets. The drivers of cash used in investing activities primarily 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.
Maintenance capital expenditures are generally funded by cash from operating activities and growth capital expenditures are generally funded by drawing on our available credit facilities or with equity capital. We may fund maintenance capital expenditures from credit facilities or equity capital and growth capital expenditures from operating activities from time to time. 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, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to the increased capital expenditures at all of our businesses, partially offset by a larger FBO acquisition in the prior comparable period.
We invested $49.4 million and $15.0 million of growth capital expenditures in our existing businesses during the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
We continuously evaluate opportunities to deploy capital in both growth projects and in acquisitions of additional businesses, whether through 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 incremental and not individually significant, such as our acquisitions of BEC and three FBOs in 2015. In aggregate, we currently anticipate deploying between $225.0 million and $250.0 million in these types of activities in 2016.
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. As of March 31, 2016, our backlog includes, and we anticipate deploying, approximately $200.0 million of growth capital in 2016 and 2017.
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. As of this date, we have not secured all of the requisite regulatory approvals, although these may be received during 2016. If approved, the construction of an additional 130 megawatt (MW) of electricity generating capacity on land adjacent to BEC would involve the deployment of approximately $130.0 million in growth capital not included in the current backlog. The majority of this deployment would likely occur in 2017.
22
IMTT currently leases land to a third party on which the third party operates a 171 MW power plant. The lease expires in 2018, and we have notified the third party that we will not be renewing the lease. Following reversion of control of the site to IMTT, MIC anticipates investing substantial capital over the medium term to develop or redevelop the site in a manner that could be an important growth component of the CP&E segment. The majority of any capital deployment in relation to this project(s) would likely occur in 2018 or later.
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 shareholders.
The increase in cash used in financing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to:
| absence of an equity offering during 2016, net of offering costs paid; |
| increase in dividends paid to shareholders; and |
| the purchase of the remaining 33.3% interest in IMTTs Quebec marine terminal that it did not previously own; partially offset by |
| net repayments on debt for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, primarily at IMTT on its revolving credit facility, compared with net borrowings during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 primarily for growth capital expenditures. |
On May 21, 2015, IMTT refinanced its existing debt, in part, with new senior notes, new revolving credit facilities and redeemed and reissued its portfolio of tax-exempt bonds. In conjunction with the refinancing, Standard and Poors and Fitch assigned IMTT an investment grade rating of BBB- with a stable outlook to the notes and the issuer. Concurrent with entering into these new facilities, the business paid $31.4 million in interest rate swap breakage fees associated with the termination of out-of-the-money interest rate swap contracts related to the prior debt facilities.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, IMTT borrowed $76.0 million on its revolving credit facility and subsequently repaid $56.0 million in March 2016. At March 31, 2016, IMTT had $1.1 billion of debt outstanding consisting of $600.0 million of senior notes, $509.0 million of tax-exempt bonds, $20.0 million drawn on revolving credit facility and $17.6 million of loans from prior owners. The $20.0 million drawn on the revolving credit facility was used primarily to fund $24.6 million of growth capital expenditures, including an acquisition completed by IMTT during the first quarter of 2016. IMTT has access to $600.0 million of revolving credit facilities, $580.0 million of which remained undrawn at March 31, 2016.
The weighted average interest rate, including interest rate swaps, was 3.39% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid during the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $3.5 million and $9.2 million, respectively.
At March 31, 2016, IMTT was in compliance with its financial covenants.
At March 31, 2016, Atlantic Aviation had total debt outstanding of $602.9 million comprising $599.0 million of senior secured, first lien term loan facilities and $3.9 million of stand-alone debt facilities used to fund construction of certain FBOs. Atlantic Aviation also has access to a $70.0 million senior secured, first lien revolving credit facility which is currently undrawn. The weighted average interest rate on all outstanding debt facilities, including interest rate swaps, was 4.63% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid was $6.9 million and $7.2 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
At March 31, 2016, Atlantic Aviation was in compliance with its financial covenants.
23
At March 31, 2016, the CP&E segment had $550.1 million in term loan debt outstanding. The weighted average interest rate on the term loan debt, including interest rate swaps, was 4.323% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid during the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $6.2 million and $2.3 million, respectively.
At March 31, 2016, all of the CP&E businesses were in compliance with their respective financial covenants.
In connection with the BEC acquisition, the business assumed $509.1 million of debt facilities that were fully repaid in July 2015. As part of the repayment, BEC paid $19.2 million in interest rate swap breakage fees associated with the termination of out-of-the-money interest rate swap contracts. In August 2015, BEC entered into new debt agreements and at March 31, 2016, had $268.5 million of term debt outstanding. The interest rate on the term loan facility was LIBOR plus 2.125% at March 31, 2016. The floating rate has been fixed at 1.786% for six years using interest rate swap contracts. BEC also entered into a $25.0 million revolving credit facility that bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.125%. The revolving credit facility remained undrawn at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $2.8 million.
On June 3, 2015, the wind power business located in Idaho amended its term loan facility to reduce its cost of borrowings. The margin on the floating interest rate decreased from 2.75% to 1.625% with all other terms remaining substantially unchanged.
At March 31, 2016, the solar and wind power businesses had total debt outstanding of $281.6 million in term loan debt. The weighted average interest rate on these term loan facilities, including interest rate swaps, was 4.717% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid during the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $3.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively.
On February 10, 2016, Hawaii Gas completed the refinancing of its existing $80.0 million term loan and $60.0 million revolving credit facility. The new, five-year facilities include a reduction in interest rates on the term loan and revolving credit facilities of 0.50% and 0.25%, respectively, compared with the prior facilities. The $80.0 million term loan bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 1.0% to 1.75% and initially set at 1.75%. The variable rate component of the debt is fixed at 0.64% at March 31, 2016 using an existing interest rate swap contract through August 2016 and will be fixed at 0.99% using a new interest rate swap contract for four years thereafter. The revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 1.0% to 1.75% and initially set at 1.25% and will remain unhedged.
At March 31, 2016, Hawaii Gas had total debt outstanding of $180.0 million in term loan and senior secured note borrowings and a revolving credit facility of $60.0 million that remained undrawn. The weighted average interest rate on the outstanding debt facilities, including the interest rate swap, was 3.41% at March 31, 2016. Cash interest paid was $2.6 million and $2.7 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
At March 31, 2016, Hawaii Gas was in compliance with its financial covenants.
In January 2016, MIC repaid $7.0 million on the outstanding balance of senior secured revolving credit facility and repaid the remaining balance of $9.0 million in February 2016. On March 30, 2016, MIC borrowed $20.0 million on its senior secured revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes and subsequently repaid $10.0 million in April 2016. The amount drawn bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.75%. The undrawn balance on the senior secured revolving credit facility at March 31, 2016 was $390.0 million. At March 31, 2016, MIC also had $350.0 million in convertible senior notes outstanding that bear interest at 2.875%.

The new, five-year facilities include a reduction in interest rates on the term loan and revolving credit facilities of 0.50% and 0.25%, respectively, compared with the prior facilities. The $80.0 million term loan bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 1.0% to 1.75% and initially set at 1.75%. The variable rate component of the debt is fixed at 0.64% at March 31, 2016 using an existing interest rate swap contract through August 2016 and will be fixed at 0.99% using a new interest rate swap contract for four years thereafter. The revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 1.0% to 1.75% and initially set at 1.25% and will remain unhedged.
Except as noted above, at March 31, 2016, there had been no material changes in our commitments and contingencies compared with our commitments and contingencies at December 31, 2015. At March 31, 2016, we did not have any material purchase obligations. For a discussion of our other future obligations, due by period, under the various contractual obligations, off-balance sheet arrangements and commitments, please see Liquidity and Capital Resources Commitments and Contingencies in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2016.
At March 31, 2016, we did not have any material reserves for contingencies. We have other contingencies occurring in the normal course of business, including pending legal and administrative proceedings that are not reflected at this time as they are not ascertainable.
Our sources of cash to meet these obligations include:
| cash generated from our operations (see Operating Activities in Liquidity and Capital Resources); |
| issuance of shares or debt securities (see Financing Activities in Liquidity and Capital Resources); |
| refinancing of our current credit facilities on or before maturity (see Financing Activities in Liquidity and Capital Resources); |
| cash available from our undrawn credit facilities (see Financing Activities in Liquidity and Capital Resources); and |
| if advantageous, sale of all or part of any of our businesses (see Investing Activities in Liquidity and Capital Resources). |

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.
Accounting Standards Update (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&E and Hawaii Gas 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 changes in relationships 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.

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, 2015. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since February 23, 2016, 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, 2016.
On April 1, 2015, we completed the acquisition of the 100% interest in BEC within the CP&E segment. The Company is evaluating changes to processes and other components of internal controls over financial reporting of BEC as part of its ongoing integration activities, and as a result, controls will be periodically changed. See Part II, Item 7 Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 4, Acquisitions, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. There have not been any other 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, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

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, 2015 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, 2015 included in the Companys
34
Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2016. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 or for any future interim periods.
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 revenues 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 February 25, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (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 (similar to current capital leases) 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 to be recognized on the balance sheet. The guidance in the ASU 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 will evaluate the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated condensed financial statements and related disclosures.
On November 20, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which modifies the disclosure requirements of deferred tax assets and liabilities on an entitys statement of financial position. Under this ASU, an entity will classify deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as any related valuation allowances, as single noncurrent amounts provided that each tax-paying component of the entity is consistent. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016 for public issuers. Early adoption is allowed. The Company has early adopted this ASU retrospectively and reclassified the deferred income taxes of $23.4 million from current assets to noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2015. Adoption of this standard did not impact the Companys financial results of operations or cash flows in the current or previous interim and annual reporting periods.
On September 25, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement Period Adjustments, which requires an acquirer to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The ASU also requires an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The standard must be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this ASU. The Company has adopted this ASU and determined that it did not impact the Companys financial condition, financial results of operations or cash flows.
35
On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers the adoption date of ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, by one calendar year. ASU No. 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. With the deferral, the new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. Early application is permitted to the original effective date of January 1, 2017. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated condensed financial statements and related disclosures.
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. Early adoption is allowed. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-11 will have a significant impact to its consolidated condensed financial statements.
On April 7, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The standard must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The Company has adopted this ASU retrospectively and reclassified the unamortized deferred financing costs from noncurrent assets to noncurrent liabilities as a reduction to long-term debt, net of current portion, on the consolidated condensed balance sheets. See Note 6, Long-Term Debt, for the adoption of this standard. Adoption of this standard did not impact the Companys financial results of operations or cash flows in the current or previous interim and annual reporting periods.
On February 18, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which changes the way reporting enterprises evaluate whether (a) they should consolidate limited partnerships and similar entities, (b) fees paid to a decision maker or service provider are variable interests in a variable interest entity (VIE), and (c) variable interests in a VIE held by related parties of the reporting enterprise require the reporting enterprise to consolidate the VIE. The ASU significantly changes how to evaluate voting rights for entities that are not similar to limited partnerships when determining whether the entity is a VIE, which may affect entities for which the decision making rights are conveyed through a contractual arrangement. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has adopted this ASU and determined that it did not impact the Companys financial condition, financial results of operations or cash flows.

On February 10, 2016, Hawaii Gas completed the refinancing of its existing $80.0 million term loan and $60.0 million revolving credit facility. The new, five-year facilities include a reduction in interest rates on the term loan and revolving credit facility of 0.50% and 0.25%, respectively, compared with the prior facilities. The $80.0 million term loan bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 1.0% to 1.75% and initially set at 1.75%. The variable rate component of the debt is fixed at 0.64% at March 31, 2016 using an existing interest rate swap contract through August 2016 and will be fixed at 0.99% using a new interest rate swap contract for four years thereafter. The revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 1.0% to 1.75% and initially set at 1.25% and will remain unhedged.
The key terms of the term loan and the revolving credit facility at March 31, 2016 are summarized in the table below.

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 swap agreements to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk on a portion of its debt with a variable-rate component. These 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, 2016, the Company had $2.8 billion of current and long-term debt, of which $1.6 billion was economically hedged with interest rate contracts, $1.2 billion was fixed rate debt and $40.0 million was unhedged. The Company does not use hedge accounting. All movements in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are recorded directly through earnings.
40
In February 2016, in conjunction with the refinancing, as discussed in Note 6, Long-Term Debt, Hawaii Gas entered into a new interest rate swap contract for an $80.0 million notional that will take effect on August 8, 2016, upon the maturity of the existing interest rate swap, and expire on February 8, 2020. This new interest rate swap will fix the interest rate on the $80.0 million term loan at 2.74%. At March 31, 2016, the interest rate on the $80.0 million term loan was fixed at 2.39%.
The risk associated with fluctuations in the prices Hawaii Gas pays for propane is principally a result of market forces reflecting changes in supply and demand for propane and other energy commodities. Hawaii Gass gross profit is sensitive to changes in propane supply costs and Hawaii Gas may not always be able to pass through product cost increases fully or on a timely basis, particularly when product costs rise rapidly. In order to reduce the volatility of the business propane market price risk, Hawaii Gas had used and expects to continue to use over-the-counter commodity derivative instruments including price swaps. Hawaii Gas does not use commodity derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Over-the-counter derivative commodity instruments utilized by Hawaii Gas to hedge forecasted purchases of propane are generally settled at expiration of the contract.
The Company measures derivative instruments at fair value using the income approach which discounts the future net cash settlements expected under the derivative contracts to a present value. These valuations utilize primarily observable (level 2) inputs, including contractual terms, interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals.
The Companys fair value measurements of its derivative instruments and the related location of the assets and liabilities within the consolidated condensed balance sheets at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were as follows ($ in thousands):

Upon consummation of the Conversion on May 21, 2015, each issued and outstanding LLC interest of MIC LLC was converted into one share of common stock of the Company. The Company also issued to its Manager 100 shares of special stock. The sole purpose for the issuance of special stock to the Manager was to preserve the Managers previously-existing right to appoint one director to serve as the chairman of the board of directors, which right would otherwise have been lost upon the Conversion. The special stock is not listed on any stock exchange and is non-transferable. Holders of special stock are not entitled to any dividends or to share in any distribution of assets upon the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
At May 21, 2015, upon consummation of the Conversion, the Company made a non-cash reclassification of $79,000 from LLC interests to common stock, par value $0.001 per share, with the remaining balance of LLC interests reclassified to additional paid in capital for the presentation of the consolidated condensed balance sheet.

Through March 31, 2016, the Company sold 37,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the agreement for net proceeds of $3.0 million (after commissions and fees).
42
The Company maintains a dividend reinvestment/direct stock purchase program, named MIC Direct, that allows for the issuance of up to 1.0 million additional shares to participants in this program. At March 31, 2016, 958,436 shares remained unissued under MIC Direct. The Company may also choose to fill requests for reinvestment of dividends or share purchases through MIC Direct via open market purchases.
On March 2, 2015, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 5,312,500 shares. On March 12, 2015, an additional 796,875 shares were sold pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option.

At March 31, 2016, the Companys businesses consist of four reportable segments: IMTT, Atlantic Aviation, CP&E and Hawaii Gas.
IMTT provides bulk liquid terminal and handling 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.
43
Atlantic Aviation derives the majority of its revenues from fuel delivery services and from other airport services, including de-icing and aircraft hanger rental. All of the revenue of Atlantic Aviation is generated at airports in the U.S. At March 31, 2016, the business operates on 68 airports. Revenue from Atlantic Aviation is included in service revenue.
The CP&E business segment derives revenue from solar, wind and gas-fired power facilities. Revenues from the solar, wind and gas-fired power facilities are included in product revenue. As of March 31, 2016, the Company has controlling interests in six utility-scale solar photovoltaic power facilities, two wind power facilities and a gas-fired power facility that are located in the United States.
The solar and wind power facilities that are operational at March 31, 2016 have an aggregate generating capacity of 260 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 power 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.
On April 1, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of BEC. As a result of this transaction, the financial results of BEC have been consolidated as part of CP&E segment since the acquisition date. BEC is a 512 MW gas-fired power 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.
Revenue 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. Because both SNG and LPG are derived from petroleum, revenue levels, without organic growth, will generally track global oil prices. Revenue from Hawaii Gas is included in product revenue.

All of the 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.

In accordance with FASB ASC 280 Segment Reporting, the Company has disclosed earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding non-cash items as a key performance metric relied on by management in the evaluation of the Companys performance. Non-cash items include impairments, base management and performance fees, if any, derivative gains and losses and adjustments for other non-cash items reflected in the statements of operations. The Company believes EBITDA excluding non-cash items provides additional insight into the performance of the operating businesses relative to each other and similar businesses without regard to their capital structure, and their ability to service or reduce debt, fund capital expenditures and/or support distributions to the holding company. EBITDA excluding non-cash items is reconciled to net income or loss.
EBITDA excluding non-cash items for the Companys consolidated reportable segments is shown in the tables below ($ in thousands). Allocations of corporate expenses, intercompany fees and the tax effect have been excluded as they are eliminated on consolidation.
