| Items 1. and 2. |
Business and Properties. |
General
Giant Industries, Inc., through our subsidiary Giant Industries
Arizona, Inc. and its subsidiaries, refines and sells petroleum
products. We do this:
|
|
|
| |
• |
on the East Coast — primarily in Virginia, Maryland,
and North Carolina; and |
| |
| |
• |
in the Southwest — primarily in New Mexico, Arizona,
and Colorado, with a concentration in the Four Corners area
where these states meet. |
In addition, our wholesale group distributes commercial
wholesale petroleum products primarily in Arizona and New Mexico.
We have three business units:
|
|
|
| |
• |
our refining group; |
| |
| |
• |
our retail group; and |
| |
| |
• |
our wholesale group. |
Refining Group
Our refining group operates our Ciniza and Bloomfield refineries
in the Four Corners area of New Mexico and the Yorktown refinery
in Virginia. It also operates a crude oil gathering pipeline
system in New Mexico, two finished products distribution
terminals, and a fleet of crude oil and finished product trucks.
Our three refineries make various grades of gasoline, diesel
fuel, and other products from crude oil, other feedstocks, and
blending components. We also acquire finished products through
exchange agreements and from various suppliers. We sell these
products through our service stations, independent wholesalers
and retailers, commercial accounts, and sales and exchanges with
major oil companies. We purchase crude oil, other feedstocks,
and blending components from various suppliers.
Retail Group
Our retail group operates service stations, which include
convenience stores or kiosks. Our service stations sell various
grades of gasoline, diesel fuel, general merchandise, including
tobacco and alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages, and food
products to the general public. Our refining group and our
wholesale group supply the gasoline and diesel fuel our retail
group sells. We purchase general merchandise and food products
from various suppliers. At December 31, 2005, our retail
group operated 123 service stations with convenience stores or
kiosks.
Wholesale Group
Our subsidiaries Phoenix Fuel Co., Inc. (“Phoenix
Fuel”) and Dial Oil Co. (“Dial Oil”) make up our
wholesale group. We acquired Dial Oil in July 2005. See
Note 19 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included
in Item 8 for further information about this acquisition.
Our wholesale group primarily distributes commercial wholesale
petroleum products. Our wholesale group includes several
lubricant and bulk petroleum distribution plants, cardlock
fueling locations, an unmanned fleet fueling operation, a bulk
lubricant terminal facility, a fleet of finished product and
lubricant delivery trucks, and 12 service stations acquired in
the Dial Oil acquisition. We purchase petroleum fuels and
lubricants from suppliers and our refining group.

Refining Group
Our Yorktown refinery is located on 570 acres of land known
as Goodwin’s Neck, which lies along the York River in York
County, Virginia. It has a crude oil throughput capacity of
61,900 barrels per day. The Yorktown refinery is situated
adjacent to its own deep-water port on the York River, close to
the Norfolk military complex and the Hampton Roads shipyards.
Our Yorktown refinery has a Solomon complexity rating of 11.0.
The Solomon complexity rating is a relative measure of a
refinery’s processing complexity based upon the number and
complexity of process units utilized for refining crude oil into
finished products. A refinery that has only crude oil
distillation capability would have a Solomon complexity rating
of 1.0. The most complex refineries have Solomon complexity
ratings in excess of 16.0. Our Yorktown refinery can process a
wide variety of crude oils, including certain lower quality
crude oils, into high-value finished products, including both
conventional and reformulated gasoline, as well as low- and
high-sulfur diesel fuel and heating oil. We also produce
liquefied petroleum gases (“LPG’s), fuel oil, and
anode grade petroleum coke.

Yorktown Refinery Fire Incident |
On November 25, 2005, a fire occurred at our Yorktown
refinery. Damage was primarily done to the gas plant that
supports the fluid catalytic converter (“FCC”), a unit
that alters the molecular composition of materials sent into the
unit in order to produce gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, heating
oil, and other products. Some
3
piping and instrumentation cables for other operating units in
the refinery were also damaged by the fire. All of the units at
the refinery were shut down to assess the scope of work needed
to return the refinery to safe and efficient operations. The
refinery is being brought back to operation in two stages.
Certain units, including the crude unit, began operations in
January 2006, and the refinery is currently operating at
approximately 40,000 barrels per day. The gas plant and the
FCC are currently targeted to return to operation in April 2006,
at which time the refinery should return to its normal operating
level of approximately 62,000 barrels per day. Although we
anticipate that the Yorktown refinery will return to full
operating levels in April, it is possible that construction
delays and other unanticipated problems could occur that would
prevent us from achieving this goal.
As a result of current market conditions, our refining margins
are weaker now than they were at the same time last year.
Additionally, we are selling feedstocks for the FCC rather than
processing them into higher valued gasoline and diesel because
we our not able to operate the FCC as a result of the fire.
We have property insurance coverage with a $1,000,000 deductible
that should cover a significant portion of the costs of
repairing the Yorktown refinery. We also have business
interruption insurance coverage for the financial impact of the
fire after the policies
45-day waiting period
is exceeded. We do not yet know exactly when we will be
receiving payments under these policies or ultimately how much
we will receive. The amounts that we will receive from our
business interruption coverage will necessarily reflect the
margin environment during the time we are not operating at
normal operating levels as a result of the fire, including the
current weaker margin environment. We also may receive amounts
under our business interruption coverage reflecting our sales of
FCC feedstocks during the period of time the unit is not
operational rather than the higher valued products that
otherwise would have been produced and sold.
For a further discussion of this matter, see the discussion in
our Risk Factors section in Item 1A regarding significant
interruptions to our operations, and in Note 17 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8.
The operating units at our refineries require regular
maintenance, as well as major repair and upgrade shutdowns
(known as “turnarounds”) during which they are not in
operation. Turnaround cycles vary for different units.
For turnaround purposes, we divide the operating units at our
Yorktown refinery into three major groups. Each of these groups
has a major turnaround approximately every five years that lasts
approximately three to four weeks. Certain groups are scheduled
for a major turnaround in 2007 and 2008. In addition, some
production units must be shut down approximately once a year,
for approximately 10 to 14 days at a time, for maintenance
that is necessary to improve the efficiency of the unit. During
these shutdowns, equipment inspections are made and maintenance
is performed. Unscheduled maintenance shutdowns also may occur
at the refinery from time to time.
We originally had planned a
30-day FCC turnaround
in April 2006. As a result of the November fire, we decided to
perform the turnaround while the unit is not operating and
eliminate the scheduled April turnaround. During the downtime,
we are also going to complete a project on the FCC, with an
anticipated cost of approximately $7,000,000, that should
increase our yield of higher value finished products.
Most of the feedstocks for our Yorktown refinery come from
Canada, the North Sea and West Africa. The refinery can process
a wide range of crude oils, including certain lower quality
crude oils. The ability to process a wide range of crude oils
allows our Yorktown refinery to vary crude oils in order to
maximize refinery margins. Lower quality crude oils can
generally be purchased at a lower cost, compared to higher
quality crude oils, and this can result in improved refinery
margins for us. At times, the Yorktown refinery also may
purchase some process unit feedstocks to supplement the
feedstocks going into various process units, and blendstocks, to
optimize refinery operations and blending operations.
4
In the first quarter of 2004, we entered into a long-term crude
oil supply agreement with Statoil Marketing and Trading (USA),
Inc., pursuant to which Statoil agreed to supply us and we
agreed to purchase acidic crude oil. We believe this arrangement
will satisfy a significant portion of our Yorktown
refinery’s crude oil needs. We began taking supplies of
this crude oil at our Yorktown refinery in February 2004.
Following various upgrades at the refinery, which took place in
the third quarter of 2004, the volumes processed have increased.
The term of this agreement expires when we have received the
total volumes of crude oil committed to be provided by Statoil,
which we believe will be in approximately 2009.
|
|
|
Marketing and Distribution |
The Yorktown Markets. The markets for our Yorktown
refinery are grouped into tiers, which represent varying
refining margin potential. Tier 1 areas generally have the
highest refining margin potential and include the Yorktown
region. Tier 2 markets include Salisbury, Maryland and
Norfolk, Virginia. North and South Carolina are considered
Tier 3 markets, and the New York Harbor area is designated
Tier 4. We focus on selling products within Tiers 1, 2
and 3, unless favorable refining margin opportunities arise
in the New York Harbor.
Most of our product is shipped out of the refinery by barge,
with the remaining amount being shipped out by truck or rail.
The CSX rail system, which serves the refinery, transports
shipments of mixed butane and anode coke from the refinery to
our customers.
Dock System and Storage. Our refinery’s dock system
is capable of handling 150,000-ton deadweight tankers and barges
up to 200,000 barrels. We handle all crude oil receipts and
the bulk of our finished product deliveries at the dock. The
refinery includes approximately 1,900,000 barrels of crude
oil tankage, including approximately 500,000 barrels of
storage capacity in a tank leased from the adjacent landowner.
We also own approximately 600,000 barrels of gasoline tank
storage, 800,000 barrels of gasoline blend stock tank
storage, and 300,000 barrels of distillate tank storage.
Our refined products, including products we acquire from other
sources, are sold through independent wholesalers and retailers,
commercial accounts, and sales and exchanges with large oil
companies. Refined products produced at the refinery were
distributed as follows:

Our Yorktown refinery’s strategic location on the York
River and its own deep-water port access allow it to receive
supply shipments from various regions of the world. Crude oil
tankers deliver all of the crude oil supplied to our Yorktown
refinery and most of the finished products sold by the refinery
are shipped out by barge. This flexibility gives us the
opportunity to purchase economically attractive crude oil and to
sell finished products in economically attractive markets.

Our Ciniza and Bloomfield Refineries |
Our refining group operates the only active refineries in the
Four Corners area. Our Ciniza refinery has a crude oil
throughput capacity of 20,800 barrels per day and a total
capacity including natural gas liquids of 26,000 barrels
per day. It is located on approximately 850 acres near
Gallup, New Mexico. Our Bloomfield refinery has a crude oil
throughput capacity of 16,000 barrels per day and a total
throughput capacity including natural gas liquids of
16,600 barrels per day. It is located on 285 acres
near Farmington, New Mexico. We
5
operate the two refineries in an integrated fashion. We achieve
efficiency gains and cost reductions by consolidating various
administrative and operating functions.
The Four Corners area is the primary market for the refined
products and is also the primary source of crude oil and natural
gas liquids supplies for both refineries.
We believe the technical capabilities of these two refineries,
together with the high quality of locally available feedstocks,
enable us to produce a high percentage of high value products.
We believe our Ciniza refinery has a Solomon complexity rating
of 7.9 and that our Bloomfield refinery has a Solomon complexity
rating of 6.7. Each barrel of raw materials processed by our
Four Corners refineries has resulted in 90% or more of
high-value finished products, including gasoline and diesel fuel
during the past five years.

Average barrels per day. |
In general, a major turnaround is scheduled for each of our Four
Corners refineries approximately every five years. A typical
major turnaround takes approximately 30 days. Our Ciniza
refinery completed a major turnaround in the second quarter of
2004 and is scheduled for a minor turnaround in the third
quarter of 2006. Our Bloomfield refinery had a major turnaround
in the fourth quarter of 2001 and is scheduled for its next
major turnaround in the first quarter of 2006. In addition, one
of the production units at each refinery must be shut down
approximately one or two times a year, for approximately
10 days at a time, for maintenance that is necessary to
improve the efficiency of the unit. During these short
shutdowns, equipment inspections are made and maintenance is
performed. Unscheduled maintenance shutdowns also may occur at
the refineries from time to time.
The primary feedstock for our Four Corners refineries is Four
Corners Sweet, a locally produced, high quality crude oil. We
supplement the crude oil used at our refineries with other
feedstocks. These other
6
feedstocks currently include locally produced natural gas
liquids and condensate as well as other feedstocks produced
outside of the Four Corners area. The most significant of these
other feedstocks are natural gas liquids, consisting of natural
gasoline, normal butane, and isobutane.
Our Ciniza refinery is capable of processing approximately
6,000 barrels per day of natural gas liquids. An adequate
supply of natural gas liquids is available for delivery to our
Ciniza refinery primarily through a pipeline we own that
connects the refinery to a natural gas liquids processing plant.
We currently acquire the majority of our natural gas liquids
feedstocks by a long-term agreement.
We purchase crude oil from a number of sources, including major
oil companies and independent producers, under arrangements that
contain market-responsive pricing provisions. Many of these
arrangements are subject to cancellation by either party or have
terms of one year or less. In addition, these arrangements are
subject to periodic renegotiation, which could result in our
paying higher or lower relative prices for crude oil.
Our Ciniza and Bloomfield refineries continue to be affected by
reduced crude oil production in the Four Corners area. For a
further discussion of this matter, including our plans to
transport crude oil through a pipeline acquired in 2005, see the
discussion in our Risk Factors section in Item 1A regarding
feedstocks at our Ciniza and Bloomfield refineries.

Marketing and Distribution |
The Four Corners Market. We group the markets for our
Four Corners refineries into two tiers, which represent varying
refining margin potential. Tier 1 has the highest refining
margin potential and is the Four Corners area. Tier 2
includes both the Albuquerque, New Mexico and Flagstaff, Arizona
areas, the largest markets in New Mexico and Northern Arizona,
respectively. The Tier 2 markets are primarily supplied
from our Ciniza refinery.
Terminal Operations. We own a finished products terminal
near Flagstaff, Arizona, with a daily capacity of
6,000 barrels per day. This terminal has approximately
65,000 barrels of finished product tankage and a truck
loading rack with three loading spots. Product deliveries to
this terminal are made by truck from our Four Corners refineries.
We also own a finished products terminal in Albuquerque, New
Mexico, with a daily capacity of 10,000 barrels per day.
This terminal has approximately 170,000 barrels of finished
product tankage and a truck loading rack with two loading spots.
Product deliveries to this terminal are made by truck or by
pipeline, including deliveries from our Ciniza refinery.
Our refined products, including products our refining group
acquires from other sources, are sold through independent
wholesalers and retailers, commercial accounts, our own retail
units, and sales and exchanges with large oil companies. Refined
products produced at the refineries were distributed as follows:

Crude oil supply for our Four Corners refineries comes primarily
from the Four Corners area and is either connected by pipelines,
including pipelines we own, or delivered by our trucks to
pipeline injection points or refinery tankage. Our pipeline
system reaches into the San Juan Basin, located in the Four
Corners area, and connects with local common carrier pipelines.
We currently own approximately 250 miles of pipeline for
7
gathering and delivering crude oil to the refineries. Our Ciniza
refinery receives natural gas liquids primarily through a
13-mile pipeline we own
that is connected to a natural gas liquids processing plant.
On August 1, 2005, we acquired an idle crude oil pipeline
running from Jal, New Mexico to Bisti, New Mexico and related
assets from Texas-New Mexico Pipe Line Company. This pipeline is
connected to our existing pipeline network that directly
supplies crude oil to the Bloomfield and Ciniza refineries. We
have begun testing the pipeline and taking other actions related
to placing it in service. Unless currently unanticipated
obstacles are encountered, we anticipate that the pipeline will
become operational before the end of 2006.
The majority of our Four Corners gasoline and diesel fuel
production is distributed in New Mexico and Arizona. Our
refining group operates a fleet of finished product trucks that
we use to deliver finished products as needed by our customers.
Retail Group
At December 31, 2005, our retail group operated 123 service
stations. These service stations are located in New Mexico,
Arizona, and Colorado. This represents a decrease of one unit
since December 31, 2004.
On December 31, 2005, our retail group had 47 units
branded Conoco pursuant to a strategic branding/licensing
agreement. In addition, 35 units were branded Giant,
37 units were branded Mustang, two units were branded
Thriftway, and two were unbranded.
Many of our service stations are modern, high-volume
self-service stations. Our service stations are augmented with
convenience stores at most locations, which provide items such
as general merchandise, tobacco products, alcoholic and
nonalcoholic beverages, fast food, and automotive products. In
addition, most locations offer services such as automated teller
machines and free air and water. These stores offer a mix of our
own branded food service/delicatessen items and some of the
stores offer nationally franchised products. Service stations
with kiosks offer limited merchandise, primarily tobacco
products, but also candy and other snacks, and some automotive
products.
Until June 19, 2003, when it was sold, we also owned and
operated a travel center adjacent to our Ciniza refinery near
Gallup, New Mexico. The travel center provided a direct market
for a portion of the Ciniza refinery’s production. In
connection with the sale, the refinery group entered into a
long-term product supply agreement with the purchaser.

Other Matters
We operate in a highly competitive industry. Many of our
competitors are large, integrated oil companies which, because
of their more diverse operations, stronger capitalization and
better brand name recognition, are better able to withstand
volatile industry conditions than we are, including shortages or
excesses of crude oil or refined products, or intense price
competition. The refineries operated by our competitors are
typically larger and more efficient than our refineries. As a
result, these refineries may have lower per barrel processing
costs. Furthermore, mergers between large integrated oil
companies, upgrades to competitors’ refineries, and
pipeline projects have resulted and, in the future, may result
in increased competition for our refineries.
The principal competitive factors affecting our refining
operations are:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the quality, quantity and delivered costs of crude oil, natural
gas liquids, and other refinery feedstocks and blendstocks; |
| |
| |
• |
refinery throughput and processing efficiencies; |
| |
| |
• |
refined product mix; |
| |
| |
• |
refined product selling prices; |
| |
| |
• |
refinery processing costs per barrel; |
| |
| |
• |
the cost of delivering refined products to markets; and |
| |
| |
• |
the ability of competitors to deliver refined products into our
market areas by pipeline or other means. |
The principal competitive factors affecting our retail marketing
business are:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the level of customer service provided; |
| |
| |
• |
the location of our service stations; |
| |
| |
• |
product selling prices; |
| |
| |
• |
product availability and cost, including prices being offered
for refined products by major oil companies to our competitors
in certain markets; |
| |
| |
• |
the appearance and cleanliness of our service stations; |
| |
| |
• |
brand acceptance; and |
| |
| |
• |
the development of gasoline retail operations by non-traditional
marketers, such as supermarkets and club membership warehouses. |
The principal competitive factors affecting our wholesale
operations are:
|
|
|
| |
• |
product availability and cost, including prices being offered
for refined products by major oil companies to our competitors
in certain markets; |
| |
| |
• |
the level of customer service provided; |
| |
| |
• |
product selling prices; and |
| |
| |
• |
business integration of new technology. |
|
|
|
Competitors in the Yorktown Refinery’s Market |
We compete with major and larger integrated oil companies as
well as independent refiners. Among others, we compete with
refineries in the Gulf Coast via the Colonial Pipeline, which
runs from the Gulf Coast area to New Jersey. We also compete
with offshore refiners that deliver product by water transport.
10
|
|
|
Competitors in the Four Corners Refineries’ Market |
We compete with major and larger integrated oil companies and
with independent refiners that have refineries located outside
the Four Corners area. Refined products can be shipped to
Albuquerque, New Mexico through pipelines originating in
El Paso, Texas; Amarillo, Texas; and southeastern New
Mexico. Furthermore, the pipeline originating in southeastern
New Mexico also can deliver refined products to the Four Corners
area.
For a further discussion of competitive risks, see the
discussions in Risk Factors in Item 1A regarding pipeline
projects and refinery improvements.
|
|
|
Regulatory and Environmental Matters |
Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and
local environmental laws. These laws apply to, among other
things:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the discharge of pollutants into the soil, air and water; |
| |
| |
• |
product specifications; |
| |
| |
• |
the generation, treatment, storage, transportation, and disposal
of solid and hazardous wastes; and |
| |
| |
• |
employee health and safety. |
We believe that all of our business units are operating in
substantial compliance with current environmental, health and
safety laws. Despite our efforts, actual or potential claims and
lawsuits involving alleged violations of law have been asserted
against us from time to time and, despite our efforts to comply
with applicable laws, may be asserted in the future.
We spend amounts each year to comply with environmental laws,
including laws regulating the discharge of materials into the
environment. We have set out below those environmental
compliance matters that we believe are the most significant to
our operations, either because of the potential size of
associated capital or operating expenditures or the potential
impact on our competitive position. Our earnings are affected to
the extent that we must make expenditures for environmental
compliance purposes.
In budgeting for capital expenditures, we do not specifically
differentiate between environmental projects and
non-environmental projects, as environmental projects may be
integrally related to our operations or to operationally
required projects. Nevertheless, capital projects with a
significant environmental component that we will either
undertake this year or are planning to take in the future are
referenced below. Certain projects are more fully identified and
described in our discussion of Capital Expenditures in our
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations section in Item 7, and in
Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 8.
We anticipate that, like us, our competitors also are spending
amounts for environmental compliance purposes. The financial
impact of certain regulatory programs, however, may not be as
significant for certain of our competitors as a result of
economies of scale, differences in compliance strategies,
differences in laws applicable to market areas in which they or
we compete, and other factors. Additionally, our competitive
position may be affected by the potential impact of
company-specific litigation and enforcement actions.
Motor Fuel Programs. Various federal and state programs
relating to the composition of motor fuels apply to our
operations. Significant programs affecting the composition of
our motor fuels are described below. It is possible that
additional laws affecting motor fuel specifications may be
adopted that would impact geographic areas in which we sell our
products.
|
|
|
| |
• |
Low Sulfur Fuels. Rules issued by the federal
Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) require
refiners to reduce the sulfur content in gasoline and diesel
fuels. Some refiners began producing gasoline that satisfies low
sulfur gasoline standards in 2004, with most refiners required
to be in full |
11
|
|
|
| |
|
compliance for all production in 2006. Most refiners also must
begin producing highway diesel fuel that satisfies low sulfur
diesel standards by June 2006. All refiners and importers must
be in full compliance with the new gasoline and diesel standards
by the end of 2010 without exception. |
|
|
| |
For a discussion of how these low sulfur fuels rules affect our
operations, see the discussion in our Risk Factors section in
Item 1A regarding compliance with various regulatory and
environmental laws and regulations, and the discussion in our
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations in Item 7 captioned Capital
Expenditures. |
|
|
|
| |
• |
Reformulated Gasoline. Federal law requires the sale of
specially formulated gasoline in designated areas of the
country, including some market areas serviced by the Yorktown
refinery. The Yorktown refinery manufactures gasoline that
satisfies the requirements of its markets. Motor fuels produced
by our Four Corners refineries are not sold in any areas where
the applicable law requires specially formulated gasoline.
Arizona, however, has adopted a cleaner burning gasoline program
that is applicable to gasolines sold or used in Maricopa County,
Arizona, which includes the Phoenix metropolitan area. We do not
presently manufacture gasolines that satisfy the Maricopa
County, Arizona specifications, but we do produce gasolines that
meet the specifications applicable to other areas of Arizona. We
are able to purchase or exchange for cleaner burning gasolines
to supply our needs in the Maricopa County area. |
| |
| |
• |
MTBE. Methyl tertiary butyl ether (“MTBE”) is a
gasoline blending component used by many refiners in producing
specially formulated gasoline. Some refiners have said they plan
to discontinue the use of MTBE as a blending component in 2006,
and we also anticipate discontinuing the use of MTBE at our
refineries in 2006. We do not expect that discontinuing the use
of MTBE will have a material impact on our results of operations. |
| |
| |
• |
Oxygenates. The use of gasoline containing oxygenates has
been government-mandated in some areas in which we sell motor
vehicle fuel. Oxygenates are oxygen-containing compounds that
can be used as a supplement to reduce carbon monoxide emissions.
Beginning in May 2006, federal law no longer requires a minimum
oxygen content in reformulated fuels. Some states and localities
may continue to require that gasoline contain oxygenates. We
anticipate that we will be able to purchase sufficient
quantities of oxygenates at acceptable prices for the
foreseeable future. |
MTBE Litigation. Lawsuits have been filed in numerous
states alleging that MTBE has contaminated, or threatens to
contaminate, water supplies. We are a defendant, along with
numerous other refiners and suppliers of gasoline containing
MTBE, in approximately 30 MTBE lawsuits pending in Virginia,
Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey,
and Pennsylvania. For a further discussion of this matter, see
the discussion in our Risk Factors section in Item 1A
regarding discharges or other releases, and Note 17 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
Alleged Regulatory Violations. Governmental authorities
issue notices of violations, compliance orders, and similar
notices that allege, among other things, violations of
environmental requirements. They also may attempt to assess
fines or require corrective action for the alleged violations.
We enter into various settlements, consent decrees and other
agreements with government authorities to resolve allegations of
non-compliance with environmental laws and obligations. We
currently are engaged in negotiations with the Environmental
Protection Agency concerning a compliance order that alleges
violations of hazardous waste regulations at our Bloomfield
refinery. We also are engaged in negotiations with the New
Mexico Environment Department concerning a compliance order that
alleges violations of groundwater regulations at our Bloomfield
refinery. For a discussion of these matters as well as actions
we are taking in connection with the resolution of other alleged
regulatory violations, including obligations we have assumed
under agreements entered into by others, see Note 17 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, captioned
“Commitments and Contingencies.”
We have received other allegations of environmental and other
regulatory violations from governmental authorities from time to
time. We have responded or intend to respond in a timely manner
to all such matters.
12
Despite our ongoing efforts to comply with environmental laws
and regulations, we may receive allegations of violations from
governmental authorities in the future.
Discharges, Releases and Cleanup Activities. By their
very nature, our operations are inherently subject to accidental
spills, discharges or other releases of petroleum or hazardous
substances. These events may give rise to liability for us.
Accidental discharges of contaminants have occurred from time to
time during the normal course of our operations. We have
undertaken, intend to undertake, or have completed all
investigative or remedial work thus far required by governmental
agencies to address potential contamination by us. For a
discussion of significant cleanup activities in which we are
involved, see Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 8, captioned “Commitments and
Contingencies.”
We are incurring, and anticipate that we will continue to incur
from time to time, remedial costs in connection with current and
former gasoline service stations operated by us. Our experience
has been that these costs generally do not exceed
$100,000 per incident, and some of these costs may be
reimbursed from state environmental funds.
Although we have invested substantial resources to prevent and
minimize future accidental discharges and to remedy
contamination resulting from prior discharges, any of the
following may occur in the future:
|
|
|
| |
• |
new accidental discharges; |
| |
| |
• |
we may fail to adequately remedy past discharges; |
| |
| |
• |
governmental agencies may impose fines for past or future
contamination; |
| |
| |
• |
we may not receive anticipated levels of reimbursement from
third parties, including state environmental agencies; or |
| |
| |
• |
third parties may assert claims against us for damages allegedly
arising out of past or future contamination. |
Our operations also are subject to a variety of federal, state,
and local laws relating to occupational health and safety. We
have ongoing safety and training programs to assist us in
complying with health and safety requirements. Our goal is to
achieve compliance and to protect our employees and the public.
Despite our efforts to comply with health and safety
requirements, there can be no assurance that governmental
authorities will not allege in the future that violations of law
have occurred.
|
|
|
Changes in Environmental, Health and Safety Laws |
We cannot predict what new environmental, health and safety laws
will be enacted or become effective in the future. We also
cannot predict how existing or future laws will be administered
or interpreted with respect to products or activities to which
they have not been previously applied. In addition,
environmental, health and safety laws are becoming increasingly
stringent. Compliance with more stringent laws, as well as more
vigorous enforcement by regulatory agencies, could have an
adverse effect on our financial position and the results of our
operations and could require substantial expenditures by us for,
among other things:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the installation and operation of refinery equipment, pollution
control systems, and equipment we currently do not possess; |
| |
| |
• |
the acquisition or modification of permits applicable to our
activities; and |
| |
| |
• |
the initiation or modification of cleanup activities. |
In connection with our crude oil pipeline system, we have
obtained various
rights-of-way from
various third parties. Irregularities in title may exist with
respect to a limited number of these
rights-of-way. We have,
however, continued our use of the entirety of our pipeline
system. As of this date, no claim stemming from any
13
right-of-way matter has
been brought against us. We do not believe that any
right-of-way matters or
irregularities in title will adversely affect our use of our
pipeline system.
Certain rights-of-way
for our crude oil pipeline system must be renewed periodically.
A portion of the system, consisting of eight miles, must be
renewed in 2006. We have started the work necessary to renew
this portion of our system. Additional
rights-of-way for
pipeline sections consisting of 174 miles must be renewed
in 2009. We expect that substantial lead time will be required
to negotiate and complete renewal of these
rights-of-way.
Certain obligations may arise from the non-renewal of these
rights-of-way. See
Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 8 related to crude pipeline asset retirement
obligations.
In February 2003, we filed a complaint against the United States
in the United States Court of Federal Claims in connection with
military jet fuel that we sold to the Defense Energy Support
Center from 1983 through 1994. We asserted that the federal
government underpaid us for jet fuel. Action in our case has
been halted by the Court, at our request, pending resolution of
other jet fuel cases in the same Court. For a discussion of this
matter, see Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 8, captioned “Commitments and
Contingencies.”
In 2005, our chief executive officer submitted to the New York
Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) the required CEO
certification regarding compliance with the NYSE corporate
governance listing standards. In addition, attached as
Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this
Form 10-K are the
certifications required by Sarbanes-Oxley Section 302.
Our annual report on
Form 10-K,
quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q, current
reports on
Form 8-K, and
amendments to those reports are available on our website at
www.Giant.com and the SEC website at www.sec.gov
as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically
filed or furnished to the SEC. Additional copies of these
reports are available without charge to stockholders by calling
(480) 585-8888 or by writing to: Mark Cox, Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer, at our corporate
headquarters.
An investment in our common shares involves risk. You should
carefully consider the specific factors described below,
together with the cautionary statements under the caption
“Forward — Looking Statements” in
Item 7 of this Report and the other information included in
this report, before purchasing our common shares. The risks
described below are not the only ones that we face. Additional
risks that are not yet known to us or that we currently think
are immaterial could also impair our business, financial
condition, or results of operations. If any of the following
risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, or
results of operations could be adversely affected. In such case,
the trading price of our common shares could decline, and you
may lose all or part of your investment.
|
|
|
We have debt that could adversely affect our
operations. |
As of December 31, 2005, our total debt was approximately
$275 million and our stockholders’ equity was
approximately $400 million. We currently have a
$175 million revolving credit facility. At
December 31, 2005, we had approximately $67 million of
letters of credit outstanding and $108 million of
availability (net of the $67 million of letters of credit
outstanding), subject to borrowing base limitations. Our level
of debt may have important consequences to you. Among other
things, it may:
|
|
|
| |
• |
limit our ability to use our cash flow, or obtain additional
financing, for future working capital, capital expenditures,
acquisitions or other general corporate purposes; |
14
|
|
|
| |
• |
restrict our ability to pay dividends; |
| |
| |
• |
require a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations
to make debt service payments; |
| |
| |
• |
limit our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our
business and industry conditions; |
| |
| |
• |
place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our less
leveraged competitors; and |
| |
| |
• |
increase our vulnerability to the impact of adverse economic and
industry conditions and, to the extent of our outstanding debt
under our floating rate debt facilities, the impact of increases
in interest rates. |
We cannot assure you that we will continue to generate
sufficient cash flow or that we will be able to borrow funds
under our senior secured revolving credit facility in amounts
sufficient to enable us to service our debt or meet our working
capital and capital expenditure requirements. If we cannot do
so, due to borrowing base restrictions or otherwise, we may be
required to sell additional assets, reduce capital expenditures,
refinance all or a portion of our existing debt or obtain
additional financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able
to refinance our debt, sell assets or borrow more money on terms
acceptable to us, if at all. In addition, our ability to incur
additional debt will be restricted under the covenants contained
in our senior credit facilities and our senior subordinated note
indentures.
|
|
|
Our debt instruments impose restrictions on us that may
adversely affect our ability to operate our business. |
The indentures governing our existing debt securities contain
covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
create liens; |
| |
| |
• |
incur or guarantee debt; |
| |
| |
• |
pay dividends; |
| |
| |
• |
repurchase shares of our common stock; |
| |
| |
• |
sell certain assets or subsidiary stock; |
| |
| |
• |
engage in certain mergers; |
| |
| |
• |
engage in certain transactions with affiliates; or |
| |
| |
• |
alter our current line of business. |
In addition, our senior secured credit facility contains other
and more restrictive covenants. We also must comply with
specified financial covenants in our senior secured credit
facility, including maintaining a minimum consolidated net
worth, a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio, and a
maximum consolidated funded indebtedness to total capitalization
percentage. Our ability to comply with these covenants may be
affected by many events beyond our control, and we cannot assure
you that our future operating results will be sufficient to
comply with the covenants. Our failure to comply with the
financial covenants or the other restrictions contained in our
senior credit facility could result in a default, which could
cause that debt (and by reason of cross-default provisions, debt
under our indentures) to become immediately due and payable. If
we cannot repay those amounts, the lenders under our senior
secured credit facility could proceed against the collateral
granted to them to secure that debt. If those lenders accelerate
the payment of the senior secured credit facility, we cannot
assure you that our assets would be sufficient to pay that debt
and our debt under our indentures.

|
We assumed liabilities in connection with the acquisition
of our Yorktown refinery. |
We assumed certain liabilities and obligations in connection
with our purchase of the Yorktown refinery in 2002. Among other
things, and subject to certain exceptions, we assumed
responsibility for all costs, expenses, liabilities and
obligations under environmental, health and safety laws caused
by, arising from, incurred in connection with or relating to the
ownership of the Yorktown refinery or its operation. We agreed
15
to indemnify the sellers for losses incurred in connection with
or related to the liabilities and obligations we have assumed.
We only have limited indemnification rights against the sellers.
Environmental obligations assumed by us include the
seller’s Yorktown refinery responsibilities under a consent
decree among various parties covering many locations (the
“Consent Decree”). Parties to the Consent Decree
include the United States, BP Exploration and Oil Co., Amoco Oil
Company, and Atlantic Richfield Company. As applicable to the
Yorktown refinery, the Consent Decree requires, among other
things, a reduction of nitrous oxides, sulfur dioxide, and
particulate matter emissions and upgrades to the refinery’s
leak detection and repair program. We estimate that we will
incur capital expenditures of between $20,000,000 and
$27,000,000 to comply with the Consent Decree through 2006, and
have expended approximately $8,500,000 of this amount through
the end of 2005. We do not anticipate any significant increase
in current operating expenses when all equipment modifications
required by the Consent Decree are completed.
In connection with the Yorktown acquisition, we also assumed the
seller’s obligations under an administrative order issued
in 1991 by EPA under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
The order requires an investigation of certain areas of the
refinery and the development of measures to correct any releases
of contaminants or hazardous substances found in these areas. A
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Facility Investigation
was conducted and approved conditionally by EPA in 2002.
Following the investigation, a Risk Assessment/ Corrective
Measures Study (“RA/CMS”) was finalized in 2003, which
summarized the remediation measures agreed upon by us, EPA, and
the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality
(“VDEQ”). The RA/CMS proposes investigation, sampling,
monitoring, and cleanup measures, including the construction of
an on-site corrective
action management unit that would be used to consolidate
hazardous solid materials associated with these measures. These
proposed actions relate to soil, sludge, and remediation wastes
relating to solid waste management units. Groundwater in the
aquifers underlying the refinery, and surface water and sediment
in a small pond and tidal salt marsh on the refinery property
also are addressed in the RA/CMS.
Based on the RA/CMS, EPA issued a proposed cleanup plan for
public comment in December 2003 setting forth preferred
corrective measures for remediating soil, groundwater, sediment,
and surface water contamination at the refinery. Following the
public comment period, EPA issued its final remedy decision and
response to comments in April 2004. EPA currently is developing
the administrative consent order pursuant to which we will
implement our cleanup plan.
Our most current estimate of expenses associated with the order
is between $25,000,000 ($17,500,000 of which we believe is
subject to reimbursement by BP) and $27,000,000 ($19,500,000 of
which we believe is subject to reimbursement by BP). We
anticipate that these expenses will be incurred over a period of
approximately 35 years after EPA approves our cleanup plan.
We believe that between approximately $9,600,000 and $10,600,000
of this amount will be incurred over an initial four-year
period, and additional expenditures of approximately $7,600,000
will be incurred over the following four-year period, with the
remainder thereafter. We may, however, be able to receive
reimbursement for some of the expenditures associated with the
plan due to the environmental reimbursement provisions included
in the purchase agreement for the refinery. EPA may require
financial assurance of our ability to perform the plan, such as
depositing funds into a trust or posting a letter of credit or
performance bond. If we cannot agree with EPA regarding
financial assurance, and as a result do not sign the consent
order being developed by EPA, EPA has indicated that it will
consider its other options for enforcement.
As part of the clean-up
plan, the facility’s underground sewer system will be
cleaned, inspected and repaired as needed. A portion of this
sewer work is scheduled to begin during the construction of the
corrective action management unit and related remediation work
and is included in our associated cost estimate. We anticipate
that the balance of the sewer work will cost between
approximately $1,500,000 and $3,500,000 over a period of three
to five years, beginning around the time the construction of the
corrective action management unit and related remediation work
is nearing completion. We anticipate that construction of the
corrective action, management unit and related remediation work
will be completed approximately seven to eight years after EPA
approves our clean-up
plan and authorizes its implementation.

|
If we cannot maintain an adequate supply of feedstocks at
our Ciniza and Bloomfield refineries, our operating results may
be adversely affected. |
The primary feedstock for our Four Corners refineries is Four
Corners Sweet, a locally produced, high quality crude oil. We
supplement the crude oil used at our refineries with other
feedstocks. These other feedstocks currently include locally
produced natural gas liquids and condensate as well as other
feedstocks produced outside of the Four Corners area. The most
significant of these other feedstocks are the natural gas
liquids, consisting of natural gasoline, normal butane and
isobutane.
These refineries continue to be affected by reduced crude oil
production in the Four Corners area. The Four Corners basin is a
mature production area and as a result is subject to a natural
decline in production over time. This natural decline is being
partially offset by new drilling, field workovers, and secondary
recovery projects, which have resulted in additional production
from existing reserves.
As a result of the declining production of crude oil in the Four
Corners area in recent years, we have not been able to
cost-effectively obtain sufficient amounts of crude oil to
operate our Four Corners refineries at full capacity. Crude oil
utilization rates for our Four Corners refineries declined from
approximately 67% in 2003 to approximately 62% in 2005. Our
current projections of Four Corners crude oil production
indicate that our crude oil demand will exceed the crude oil
supply that is available from local sources for the foreseeable
future and that our crude oil capacity utilization rates at our
Four Corners refineries will continue to decline unless
circumstances change.
On August 1, 2005, we acquired an idle crude oil pipeline
system that originates near Jal, New Mexico and is connected to
a company-owned pipeline network that directly supplies crude
oil to the Bloomfield and Ciniza refineries. When operational,
the pipeline will have sufficient crude oil transportation
capacity to allow us to again operate both refineries at maximum
rates. We have begun testing the pipeline and taking other
actions related to placing it in service. Unless currently
unanticipated obstacles are encountered, we anticipate that the
pipeline will become operational before the end of 2006.
If additional crude oil or other refinery feedstocks become
available in the future via the new pipeline or otherwise, we
may increase production runs at our Four Corners refineries
depending on the demand for finished products and the refining
margins attainable. We continue to assess short-term and
long-term options to address the continuing decline in Four
Corners crude oil production. The options being considered
include:
|
|
|
| |
• |
evaluating potentially economic sources of crude oil produced
outside the Four Corners area, including ways to reduce raw
material transportation costs to our refineries; |
| |
| |
• |
evaluating ways to encourage further production in the Four
Corners area; |
| |
| |
• |
changes in operation/configuration of equipment at one or both
refineries to further the integration of the two refineries, and
reduce fixed costs; and |
| |
| |
• |
with sufficient further decline in raw material supply, the
temporary, partial or permanent discontinuance of operations at
one or both refineries. |
None of these options, however, may prove to be economically
viable. We cannot assure you that the Four Corners crude oil
supply for our Ciniza and Bloomfield refineries will continue to
be available at all or on acceptable terms for the long term,
that the new pipeline will become operational, or that the
additional crude oil supplies accessible via the new pipeline
will be available on acceptable terms. Because large portions of
the refineries’ costs are fixed, any significant
interruption or decline in the supply of crude oil or other
feedstocks would have an adverse effect on our Four Corners
refinery operations and on our overall operations.
We have pipeline systems for gathering and delivering crude oil
to our refineries and for natural gas liquids. If we cannot use
either the crude oil pipeline system or the natural gas liquids
pipeline, this could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition or results of operation. Certain
rights-of-way for our
crude oil pipeline system must be renewed periodically. A
portion of the system, consisting of eight miles, must be
renewed in 2006. Additional
rights-of-way for
pipeline sections consisting of 174 miles must be renewed
in 2009. We expect that substantial lead time will be required
to negotiate and complete renewal of
17
these rights-of-way.
Our inability to successfully renew these rights of way would
negatively impact our ability to use the crude oil pipeline
system, which could have a material adverse effect on our
business.
|
|
|
The volatility of crude oil prices and refined product
prices may adversely affect our business, financial condition
and operating results. |
Our cash flow from operations depends primarily on producing and
selling quantities of refined products at refinery margins
sufficient to cover fixed and variable expenses. In recent
years, crude oil costs and prices of refined products have
fluctuated substantially. These costs and prices depend on
numerous factors beyond our control, including:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the supply of and demand for crude oil, gasoline and other
refined products; |
| |
| |
• |
changes in the economy; |
| |
| |
• |
changes in the level of foreign and domestic production of crude
oil and refined products; |
| |
| |
• |
worldwide political conditions; |
| |
| |
• |
the extent of government regulations; and |
| |
| |
• |
local factors, including market conditions, pipeline capacity,
and the level of operations of other refineries in our markets. |
Our crude oil requirements are supplied from sources that
include major oil companies, large independent producers, and
smaller local producers. In February 2004, we entered into a
long-term crude oil supply agreement with Statoil Marketing and
Trading (USA), Inc., which we believe will provide a significant
proportion of our Yorktown refinery’s crude oil needs. We
began taking supplies of acidic crude oil at our Yorktown
refinery beginning in February 2004. Following various upgrades
at the refinery, which took place in the third quarter of 2004,
the volumes processed have increased. The term of this agreement
expires when we have received the total volumes of crude oil
committed to be provided by Statoil, which we believe will be in
approximately 2009. Except for this long-term supply agreement
with Statoil, our crude oil supply contracts are generally
relatively short-term contracts with market-responsive pricing
provisions. An increase in crude oil prices would adversely
affect our operating margins if we cannot pass along the
increased cost of raw materials to our customers.
Our sale prices for refined products are influenced by the
commodity price of crude oil. Generally, an increase or decrease
in the price of crude oil results in a corresponding increase or
decrease in the price of gasoline and other refined products.
The timing of the relative movement of the prices, however, as
well as the overall change in product prices, could reduce
profit margins and could have a significant impact on our
refining and marketing operations, earnings and cash flows. In
addition, we maintain inventories of crude oil, intermediate
products, and refined products, the values of which are subject
to rapid fluctuation in market prices. Price level changes
during the period between purchasing feedstocks and selling the
manufactured refined products could have a significant effect on
our operating results. Any long-term adverse relationships
between costs and prices could impact our ability to generate
sufficient operating cash flows to meet our working capital
needs. Furthermore, because of the significantly greater volume
of products produced and sold by our Yorktown refinery, as
compared to our other operations, we have a much larger exposure
to volatile refining margins than we had in the past.
|
|
|
Our industry is highly competitive, and we may not be able
to compete effectively against larger competitors with greater
resources. |
We operate in a highly competitive industry. Many of our
competitors are large, integrated oil companies that, because of
their more diverse operations, larger refineries, stronger
capitalization and better brand name recognition, are better
able to withstand volatile industry conditions than we are,
including shortages or excesses of crude oil or refined products
or intense price competition. The refineries operated by our
competitors are typically larger and more efficient than our
refineries. As a result, these refineries may have
18
lower per barrel processing costs. Mergers between large
integrated oil companies, and upgrades to competitors’
refineries have, and in the future may, result in increased
competition for our refineries.
|
|
|
The completion of certain pipeline projects could result
in increased competition by increasing the amount of refined
products available in the Albuquerque, El Paso, Tucson, and
Phoenix market areas and other market areas. |
We are aware of a number of actions, proposals or industry
discussions regarding product pipeline projects that could
impact portions of our marketing areas. The Longhorn pipeline,
which began operations in August 2004, runs from Houston, Texas
to El Paso, Texas. In El Paso, the Longhorn pipeline
connects to a Chevron pipeline that delivers to the Albuquerque
area and to a Kinder-Morgan pipeline that delivers to the
Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona markets. In addition, there are
plans to increase the volume of product that can be transported
by pipeline from El Paso to the Phoenix and Tucson markets,
and the volume of product that can be transported by pipeline
from Amarillo, Texas to the Albuquerque market. The Longhorn
pipeline and the completion of some or all of these other
projects could result in increased competition by increasing the
amount of refined products potentially available in these
markets, as well as improving competitor access to these areas.
It also could result in new opportunities for us, as we are a
net purchaser of refined products in some of these areas.
|
|
|
The completion of certain projects and refinery
improvements could result in increased competition in the Four
Corners area. |
Portions of our marketing area may be impacted by
competitors’ plans, as well as plans of our own, for
expansion projects and refinery improvements that could increase
the production of refined products in New Mexico. In addition,
we anticipate that lower quality crude oils, which are typically
less expensive to acquire, can and will be processed by our
competitors as a result of refinery improvements. These
developments could result in increased competition in our market
areas.
|
|
|
Any significant interruptions in the operations of any of
our refineries could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition and operating results. |
Our refining activities are conducted at our two refinery
locations in New Mexico and the Yorktown refinery in Virginia.
The refineries constitute a significant portion of our operating
assets, and our two New Mexico refineries supply a significant
portion of our retail operations. As a result, our operations
would be subject to significant interruption if any of the
refineries were to experience a major accident, be damaged by
severe weather or other natural disaster, or otherwise be forced
to shut down. If any of the refineries were to experience an
interruption in supply or operations, our business, financial
condition and operating results could be materially and
adversely affected.
On November 25, 2005, a fire occurred at our Yorktown
refinery. Damage was primarily done to the gas plant that
supports the fluid catalytic converter (“FCC”), a unit
that alters the molecular composition of materials sent into the
unit in order to produce gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, heating
oil, and other products. Some piping and instrumentation cables
for other operating units in the refinery were also damaged by
the fire. All of the units at the refinery were shut down to
assess the scope of work needed to return the refinery to safe
and efficient operations. The refinery is being brought back to
operation in two stages. Certain units, including the crude
unit, began operations in January 2006, and the refinery is
currently operating at approximately 40,000 barrels per
day. The gas plant and the FCC are currently targeted to return
to operation in April 2006, at which time the refinery should
return to its normal operating level of approximately
62,000 barrels per day. Although we anticipate that the
Yorktown refinery will return to full operating levels in April,
it is possible that construction delays and other unanticipated
problems could occur that would prevent us from achieving this
goal.
As a result of current market conditions, our refining margins
are weaker now than they were at the same time last year.
Additionally, we are selling feedstocks for the FCC rather than
processing them into higher valued gasoline and diesel because
we our not able to operate the FCC as a result of the fire.
19
We have property insurance coverage with a $1,000,000 deductible
that should cover a significant portion of the costs of
repairing the Yorktown refinery. We also have business
interruption insurance coverage for the financial impact of the
fire after the policies
45-day waiting period
is exceeded. We do not yet know exactly when we will be
receiving payments under these policies or ultimately how much
we will receive. The amounts that we will receive from our
business interruption coverage will necessarily reflect the
margin environment during the time we are not operating at
normal operating levels as a result of the fire, including the
current weaker margin environment. We also may receive amounts
under our business interruption coverage reflecting our sales of
FCC feedstocks during the period of time the unit is not
operational rather than the higher valued products that
otherwise would have been produced and sold.
|
|
|
Our operations are subject to various hazards that are not
fully insured, and our insurance premiums could increase. |
Our operations are subject to normal hazards of operations,
including fire, explosion and weather-related perils. We
maintain various insurance coverages, including business
interruption insurance, subject to certain deductibles and
consistent with standard practices for comparable companies. We
are not fully insured against certain risks because such risks
are not fully insurable, coverage is unavailable or premium
costs, in our judgment, do not justify the expenditures. Any
such event that causes a loss for which we are not fully insured
could have a material and adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and operating results.
As a result of the insurance claims that we have submitted in
connection with the fire at our Yorktown refinery in November
2005, current insurance market conditions, and other factors,
our annual insurance premiums for property damage, business
interruption, and other types of insurance could increase. Such
increases could have a material and adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and operating results.
|
|
|
Compliance with various regulatory and environmental laws
and regulations will increase the cost of operating our
business. |
Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and
local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations
governing the discharge of pollutants into the soil, air and
water, product specifications, the generation, treatment,
storage, transportation and disposal of solid and hazardous
waste and materials and employee health and safety. Violations
of such laws and regulations can lead to substantial fines and
penalties. Also, these laws and regulations have become, and are
becoming, increasingly stringent. Moreover, we cannot predict
the nature, scope or effect of legislation or regulatory
requirements that could be imposed, or how existing or future
laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted, with
respect to products or activities to which they have not been
previously applied. Compliance with more stringent laws or
regulations, as well as more vigorous enforcement policies of
the regulatory agencies, could require us to make substantial
expenditures for, among other things, the installation and
operation of refinery equipment, pollution control systems and
other equipment we do not currently possess, or the acquisition
or modification of permits applicable to our activities.
The EPA has issued a rule pursuant to the Clean Air Act that
requires refiners to reduce the sulfur content of gasoline and
diesel fuel. Some refiners began producing gasoline that
satisfies low sulfur gasoline standards in 2004, with most
refiners required to be in full compliance for all production in
2006. Most refiners also must begin producing highway diesel
fuel that satisfies low sulfur diesel standards by June 2006.
All refiners and importers must be in full compliance with the
new standards by the end of 2010 without exception.
We applied for temporary relief from the low sulfur gasoline
standards at the Yorktown refinery. In March 2003, the EPA
approved our application and issued a compliance plan. This
compliance plan allowed us to postpone certain capital
expenditures for up to three years from the date we would
otherwise have begun these expenditures. We must be in full
compliance with the diesel sulfur standards by June 1,
2006, and the gasoline sulfur standards by January 1, 2008.
The compliance plan requires us to provide the EPA with an
annual report on our adherence to the compliance plan and on our
progress in meeting the low sulfur standards. If we fail to
comply with the conditions set by the EPA, the compliance plan
could be modified or
20
revoked. Further, the EPA reserved the right to modify or revoke
the compliance plan for other reasons. The EPA must, however,
provide us with reasonable notice of any anticipated changes in
the plan and reasonable lead time to implement any modifications
due to changes in the compliance plan. Modifications to or
revocation of the compliance plan could increase the quantity of
high-sulfur products, including product components, that do not
meet the new standards. This would likely reduce our Yorktown
refining earnings.
With respect to the Ciniza and Bloomfield refineries, we believe
that we qualify under existing regulations for an extension of
the low sulfur gasoline standards until 2007, the date when the
annual average sulfur content of our Four Corners gasoline must
begin to be reduced. Full compliance is, however, required by
2008.
We are currently installing the equipment necessary to produce
low sulfur gasoline and diesel fuel at our refineries. For a
discussion of the costs associated with this equipment, see our
discussion of Capital Expenditures in our Management’s
Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations section in Item 7.
There are a number of factors that could affect our cost of
compliance with the low sulfur standards. In particular, because
these standards affect the entire industry and because of the
damage to refineries caused by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita,
engineering and construction companies are busy and may charge a
premium for their services. The relatively short time left to
comply also might result in increased costs to expedite ordering
for otherwise long delivery items or added overtime by
contractors to meet the implementation schedule. Increases in
metal and concrete prices could further impact costs.
It is possible that our Yorktown and Ciniza refineries will not
be able to meet the June 2006 start date for the low sulfur
diesel standards as a result of the combined effects of
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita on the availability of contractors
and other similar effects and the time and effort required to
repair damage resulting from the 2005 fire at the Yorktown
refinery. We are continuing to assess the timeline for low
sulfur diesel production at both refineries and, at this time,
do not know if the modifications necessary to produce low sulfur
diesel will be completed on time. We have been in communication
with EPA concerning the possibility that we will not be able to
meet the June start date. Any failure to complete these projects
by the applicable deadline could result in a reduction of the
quantity of gasoline and diesel fuel that we would have
available for sale, and an increase in the quantity of refinery
products available for sale that are not subject to the low
sulfur diesel standards, such as heating oil. Such circumstances
would likely reduce refining earnings.
In addition, applicable laws and regulations govern the
investigation and remediation of contamination at our current
and former properties, as well as at third-party sites to which
we sent wastes for disposal. We may be held liable for
contamination existing at current or former properties,
notwithstanding that a prior operator of the site, or other
third party, caused the contamination. We may be held
responsible for costs associated with cleaning up contamination
at third-party disposal sites, notwithstanding that the original
disposal activities accorded with all then applicable regulatory
requirements. We are currently engaged in several such
remediation projects.
Moreover, we face significant exposure from actual or potential
claims and lawsuits, brought by either governmental authorities
or private parties, alleging non-compliance with environmental,
health and safety laws and regulations, or property damage or
personal injury caused by the environmental, health or safety
impacts of our operations or of historic contamination.
Governmental authorities may also impose penalties and fines for
alleged violations of environmental laws and regulations. We
enter into various settlements, consent decrees, and other
agreements with governmental authorities to resolve allegations
of non-compliance with environmental laws and regulations,
including, for example, the 2005 settlement agreements entered
into with the EPA and the New Mexico Environmental Department
applicable to our Four Corners refineries. For a discussion of
these settlement agreements, as well as other agreements with
governmental authorities, see our related discussion in
Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 8.
Future expenditures related to compliance with environmental,
health and safety laws and regulations, the investigation and
remediation of contamination, and the defense or settlement of
governmental enforcement actions or private-party claims cannot
be reasonably quantified in many circumstances for various
21
reasons, including the speculative nature of remediation and
clean-up cost estimates
and methods, imprecise and conflicting data regarding the
hazardous nature of various types of substances, the number of
other potentially responsible parties involved, various defenses
which may be available to us, and changing environmental laws,
regulations and their respective interpretations. We cannot
assure you that compliance with such laws or regulations, such
investigations or cleanups, or such enforcement proceedings or
private-party claims will not have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition or results of operation.

|
|
Our operations are inherently subject to discharges or
other releases of petroleum or hazardous substances for which we
may face significant liabilities. |
Our operations, as with others in the businesses in which we
operate, are inherently subject to spills, discharges or other
releases of petroleum or hazardous substances that may give rise
to liability to governmental entities or private parties under
federal, state or local environmental laws, as well as under
common law. Spills, discharges or other releases of contaminants
have occurred from time to time during the normal course of our
operations, including releases associated with our refineries,
pipeline and trucking operations, as well as releases at
gasoline service stations and other petroleum product
distribution facilities we have operated and are operating. We
cannot assure you that additional spills, discharges and other
releases will not occur in the future, that future action will
not be taken in connection with past incidents (including at the
Yorktown refinery), that governmental agencies will not assess
penalties against us in connection with any past or future
discharges or incidents, or that third parties will not assert
claims against us for damages allegedly arising out of any such
past or future discharges or incidents.
Lawsuits have been filed in numerous states alleging that MTBE,
a blendstock used by many refiners in producing specially
formulated gasoline, has contaminated water supplies. MTBE
contamination primarily results from leaking underground or
aboveground storage tanks. The suits allege MTBE contamination
of water supplies owned and operated by the plaintiffs, who are
generally water providers or governmental entities. The
plaintiffs assert that numerous refiners, distributors, or
sellers of MTBE and/or gasoline containing MTBE are responsible
for the contamination. The plaintiffs also claim that the
defendants are jointly and severally liable for compensatory and
punitive damages, costs, and interest. Joint and several
liability means that each defendant may be liable for all of the
damages even though that party was responsible for only a small
part of the damages. We are a defendant in approximately 30 of
these MTBE lawsuits pending in Virginia, Connecticut,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, and
Pennsylvania. We intend to vigorously defend these lawsuits. We
cannot yet predict whether these lawsuits will materially impact
us.

We currently do not pay dividends on our common stock. The board
of directors will periodically review our policy regarding the
payment of dividends. Any future dividends are subject to the
results of our operations, declaration by the board of
directors, and existing debt covenants, as described below.
24
We have issued 8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the
“8% Notes”) and 11% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2012 (the “11% Notes”). The
8% Notes were issued under an Indenture dated May 3,
2004 (the “8% Indenture”) and the 11% Notes were
issued under an Indenture dated May 14, 2002 (the “11%
Indenture”, and collectively with the 8% Indenture, the
“Indentures”). Both Indentures are among the Company,
its subsidiaries, as guarantors, and The Bank of New York, as
trustee. The Indentures contain a number of covenants, one of
which governs our ability to pay dividends and to purchase our
common stock.
Also see the Capital Structure discussion in Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations included in Item 7.
On February 24, 2006, there were 230 stockholders of record

Our refining margin per barrel is calculated by subtracting cost
of products from net sales and dividing the result by the number
of barrels sold for the period. Our fuel margin per gallon is
calculated by subtracting cost of fuel sold from fuel sales and
dividing the result by the number of gallons sold for the
period. We use refining margin per barrel and fuel margin per
gallon to evaluate performance and allocate resources. These
measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used
by other companies. Investors and analysts use these financial
measures to help analyze and compare companies in the industry
on the basis of operating performance. These financial measures
should not be considered as alternatives to segment operating
income, revenues, costs of sales and operating expenses or any
other measure of financial performance presented in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

| Item 7. |
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations |
Company Overview
We refine and sell petroleum products and operate service
stations and convenience stores. Our operations are divided into
three strategic business units, the refining group, the retail
group and the wholesale group. Our refining group operates two
refineries in the Four Corners area of New Mexico and one
refinery in Yorktown, Virginia. Our refining group sells its
products to numerous wholesale distributors and retail chains.
Our retail group operated 123 service stations at
December 31, 2005. Our retail group sells petroleum
products and merchandise in New Mexico, Arizona, and southern
Colorado. Our wholesale group distributes commercial wholesale
petroleum products primarily in Arizona and New Mexico.
33
In order to maintain and improve our financial performance, we
are focused on several critical and challenging objectives. We
will be addressing these objectives in the short-term as well as
over the next three to five years. In our view, the most
important of these objectives are:
|
|
|
| |
• |
increasing margins through management of inventories and taking
advantage of sales and purchasing opportunities; |
| |
| |
• |
minimizing operating expenses and capital expenditures; |
| |
| |
• |
increasing the available crude oil supply for our Four Corners
refineries; |
| |
| |
• |
cost effectively complying with current environmental
regulations as they apply to our refineries, including future
clean air standards; |
| |
| |
• |
improving our overall financial health and flexibility by, among
other things, reducing our debt and overall costs of capital,
including our interest and financing costs, and maximizing our
return on capital employed; and |
| |
| |
• |
evaluating opportunities for internal growth and growth by
acquisition. |
Critical Accounting Policies
A critical step in the preparation of our financial statements
is the selection and application of accounting principles,
policies, and procedures that affect the amounts that are
reported. In order to apply these principles, policies, and
procedures, we must make judgments, assumptions, and estimates
based on the best available information at the time. Actual
results may differ based on the accuracy of the information
utilized and subsequent events, some of which we may have little
or no control over. In addition, the methods used in applying
the above may result in amounts that differ considerably from
those that would result from the application of other acceptable
methods. The development and selection of these critical
accounting policies, and the related disclosure below, have been
reviewed with the audit committee of our board of directors.
Our significant accounting policies, including revenue
recognition, inventory valuation, and maintenance costs, are
described in Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Item 8. The following accounting
policies are considered critical due to the uncertainties,
judgments, assumptions and estimates involved:
|
|
|
| |
• |
accounting for contingencies, including environmental
remediation and litigation liabilities (see Note 17); |
| |
| |
• |
assessing the possible impairment of long-lived assets (see
Notes 4 and 5); |
| |
| |
• |
accounting for asset retirement obligations (see Note 7); |
| |
| |
• |
accounting for our pension and post-retirement benefit plans
(see Note 13); and |
| |
| |
• |
accounting for inventories (see Note 2). |
Contingencies, Including Environmental Remediation and
Litigation Liabilities
We have recorded various environmental remediation liabilities
described in more detail in Note 17 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8. For the most part, these
liabilities result from:
|
|
|
| |
• |
past operations, including liabilities arising out of changes in
environmental laws; and |
| |
| |
• |
liabilities assumed in connection with acquired assets. |
We are remediating these matters. We record liabilities if
environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable
and the costs can be reasonably estimated. We do not discount
environmental liabilities to their present value. In general, we
record environmental liabilities without consideration of
potential recoveries from third parties, although we do take
into account amounts that others are contractually obligated to
pay us. We employ independent consultants or our internal
environmental personnel to investigate and assemble
34
pertinent facts, recommend an appropriate remediation plan in
light of regulatory standards, assist in estimating remediation
costs based on existing technologies, and complete remediation
according to approved plans. If we do not use consultants, we
estimate remediation costs based on the knowledge and experience
of our employees having responsibility for the remediation
project. Because of the uncertainty involved in our various
remediation efforts and the period of time our efforts may take
to complete, estimates are based on current regulatory
standards. We update our estimates as needed to reflect changes
in the facts known to us, available technology, or applicable
laws. We often make subsequent adjustments to estimates, which
may be significant, as more information becomes available to us,
as the requirements of government agencies are changed or
clarified, or as other circumstances change.
We record liabilities for litigation matters when it is probable
that the outcome of litigation will be adverse and the costs and
damages can be reasonably estimated. We estimate these costs and
damages based on the facts and circumstances of each case, our
knowledge and experience, and the knowledge and experience of
others with whom we may consult.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We review the carrying values of our long-lived assets,
including goodwill and other intangibles, for possible
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.
For assets held for sale, we report long-lived assets at the
lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
For assets held and used, we use an undiscounted cash flow
methodology to assess their recoverability. If the sum of the
expected future cash flows for these assets is less than their
carrying value, we record impairment losses. Goodwill and
certain intangible assets with indefinite lives are also subject
to an annual impairment test. Changes in current economic
conditions, assumptions regarding the timing and amounts of cash
flows, or fair market value estimates could result in additional
write-downs of these assets in the future. For a discussion of
our impairment of long-lived assets, see Notes 4 and 5 to
our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
Asset Retirement Obligations
We have legal obligations associated with the retirement of some
of our long-lived assets. These obligations are related to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
some of our solid waste management facilities; |
| |
| |
• |
some of our crude pipeline
right-of-way agreements; |
| |
| |
• |
some of our underground and above-ground storage tanks; and |
| |
| |
• |
some of our refinery piping and heaters, that are wrapped in
material containing asbestos. |
We use a discounted cash flow model to calculate the fair value
of the asset retirement obligations. Key assumptions we use in
estimating the fair value of these obligations are:
|
|
|
| |
• |
settlement date occurs at the end of the economic useful
life; and |
| |
| |
• |
settlement prices are estimated using consultant proposals and
third-party contractor invoices for substantially equivalent
work and a market risk premium to cover uncertainties and
unforeseeable circumstances. |
Changes in current economic conditions, assumptions regarding
the timing and amounts of cash flows, or fair market value
estimates could result in a change in the obligation in the
future.
For a discussion of our asset retirement obligations, see
Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 8.
35
Pension and Post-Retirement Plans
We have a defined benefit retirement plan (“Cash Balance
Plan”) and a post-retirement medical plan (“Retiree
Medical Plan”) for our Yorktown employees.
The plan obligations and related assets of our pension and
post-retirement plans are presented in Note 13 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements. Plan assets, which consist of
equity and debt securities, are valued using market prices. Plan
obligations and the annual pension and post-retirement medical
expense are determined by independent actuaries and are based on
a number of assumptions. The key assumptions used in measuring
the plan obligations include:
|
|
|
| |
• |
discount rate; |
| |
| |
• |
long-term rate of return on plan assets; and |
| |
| |
• |
healthcare cost trend rates. |
Changes in our actuarial assumptions used in calculating our
pension and other postretirement benefit liability and expense
can have a significant impact on our earnings and financial
position. We review these assumptions on an annual basis and
adjust them as necessary.
The following chart reflects the sensitivities that a change in
certain actuarial assumptions for our Cash Balance Plan would
have had on the 2005 projected benefit obligation, our 2005
reported pension liability on our Consolidated Balance Sheet,
and our 2005 reported pension expense on our Consolidated
Statement of Operations:

Inventories
Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Costs
for crude oil and refined products produced by the refineries
are determined by the
last-in, first-out
(“LIFO”) method. Under this method, the most recent
acquisition costs are charged to cost of sales, and inventories
are valued at the earliest acquisition costs. We selected this
method because we believed it more accurately reflects the cost
of our current sales. The use of this method results in reported
earnings that can differ significantly from those that might be
reported under a different inventory method such as the
first-in, first-out
(“FIFO”) method. Under the FIFO method, the earliest
acquisition costs are charged to cost of sales and inventories
are valued at the latest acquisition costs. In addition, the use
of the LIFO inventory method may result in increases or
decreases to cost of sales in years that inventory volumes
decline as the result of charging cost of sales with LIFO
inventory costs generated in prior periods. In periods of
rapidly declining prices, LIFO inventories may have to be
written down to market value due to the higher costs assigned to
LIFO volumes in prior periods. Market value is determined based
on estimated selling prices less applicable refining,
transportation and other selling costs, generally for the month
subsequent to the end of the reporting period. This topic is
further discussed in Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Item 8.
The Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), under Issue
No. 04-13,
Accounting for Purchases and Sales of Inventory with the Same
Counterparty, reached a consensus in September 2005 that some or
all of such buy/sell arrangements should be accounted for at
historical cost pursuant to the guidance in paragraph 21(a)
of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion
No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary
Transactions”. Our buy/sell arrangements with a single
counterparty are reported on a net basis and, accordingly, we
believe we are in compliance with this EITF. The net proceeds
for these type of transactions were approximately
$11 million, $7 million and $5 million in 2005,
2004, and 2003, respectively.
In November 2004, FASB issued SFAS 151, “Inventory
Costs — An Amendment of ARB No. 43,
Chapter 4”, which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2005. This Statement requires that
idle capacity expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted
materials (spoilage), regardless of whether these costs are
considered abnormal, be treated as current period charges. In
addition, this statement requires that allocation of fixed
overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal
capacity of the production facilities. We have not yet
determined the impact of this pronouncement on our financial
statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 153, “Exchanges
of Nonmonetary Assets — An Amendment of APB Opinion
29”. The basic principle in Opinion 29 provides that
nonmonetary exchanges should be measured based on the fair value
of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that opinion, however,
provides an exception to this principle if the exchange involves
similar productive assets. This statement amends Opinion 29
to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar
productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for
exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial
substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if
the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change
significantly as a result of the exchange. We do not expect this
pronouncement to have a material impact on our financial
statements.

The comparability of our continuing results of operations for
the year ended December 31, 2005 with the year ended
December 31, 2004 is affected by, among others, the
following factors:
|
|
|
| |
• |
stronger combined net refining margins for our refineries in
2005, due to, among other things: |
|
|
|
| |
• |
increased finished product demand; |
| |
| |
• |
increased sales in our Tier 1 markets; |
| |
| |
• |
reduced imports of foreign gasoline, due to a reduction in
gasoline sulfur limits; |
38
|
|
|
| |
• |
elimination of MTBE in Connecticut, New York, and
California; and |
| |
| |
• |
tight finished product supply in certain of our market areas. |
| |
| |
• |
the processing of lower priced acidic crude oils at our Yorktown
refinery, including crude oil purchased under our supply
agreement with Statoil that began deliveries in late February
2004; |
|
|
|
| |
• |
stronger finished product margins for our Phoenix Fuel
operations in 2005, due to, among other things: |
|
|
|
| |
• |
increased finished product demand; and |
| |
| |
• |
tight finished product supplies in our Phoenix market. |
|
|
|
| |
• |
the acquisition of Dial Oil in July 2005; |
| |
| |
• |
the shutdown of the alkylation unit at our Ciniza refinery as a
result of the fire that occurred on April 8, 2004, which
resulted in the alkylation unit being out of operation from
April 8, 2004 to September 1, 2004; |
| |
| |
• |
a scheduled turnaround, which started early as a result of the
fire discussed above, at the Ciniza refinery, which resulted in
the refinery being out of operation from April 8, 2004 to
May 9, 2004 (except the alkylation unit, which was not
repaired and restarted until September 1, 2004); |
| |
| |
• |
an unplanned shutdown at the Yorktown refinery as a result of a
fire that occurred at the plant in November 2005; and |
| |
| |
• |
higher throughput volumes at the Yorktown refinery due to the
delayed completion of refinery upgrades toward the end of 2004
to process additional higher-acid crude oil and unrelated
operating problems with two units that were resolved by early
January 2005. |
Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2005 and
December 31, 2004
|
|
|
Earnings (Loss) From Continuing Operations Before Income
Taxes |
Our earnings from continuing operations before income taxes
increased $146,055,000 for the year ended December 31,
2005. This increase was primarily due to the following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
an increase in operating earnings before corporate allocations
from our refinery operations of $111,634,000 primarily due to
higher margins; |
| |
| |
• |
a $8,422,000 decrease in interest expense due to our refinancing
transactions in 2005; |
| |
| |
• |
a decrease of $8,482,000 in costs associated with early debt
extinguishment; and |
| |
| |
• |
an increase in our retail and wholesale operations fuel volumes
and margin as a result of improved market conditions. |
This increase was partially offset by the following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
a $29,793,000 increase in operating expenses primarily due to
higher purchased fuel costs and increased repairs and
maintenance expenditures at our refineries. |
Our Yorktown refinery operated at an average throughput rate of
approximately 61,000 barrels per day in 2005, compared to
58,900 barrels per day in 2004.
Revenues for our Yorktown refinery increased in 2005 primarily
due to higher finished product prices as a result of favorable
market conditions and an increase in volumes sold.
Refining margins for 2005 were $8.72 per barrel as compared
to $5.60 per barrel for the same period in 2004. This
increase was primarily due to increased demand, lower imports of
finished products into the East
39
Coast, lower nationwide production due to the damage to
refineries done by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and limited
refining capacity in the United States.
Operating expenses increased in 2005 primarily due to the
following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
increased maintenance costs primarily related to tank
inspections and repairs and coker unit repairs; |
| |
| |
• |
increased operating costs due to higher volumes, higher
electrical costs, and higher purchased costs of natural
gas; and |
| |
| |
• |
increased chemical and catalyst costs, primarily related to
higher cost catalyst required to meet more stringent sulfur
reduction requirements. |
Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 2005
primarily due to the amortization of certain refinery turnaround
costs and depreciation of additional capitalized costs incurred
in 2004.
As discussed more fully under the heading Raw Material Supply in
Items 1 and 2 of Part I, in February 2004, we entered
into a long-term crude oil supply agreement with Statoil. We
believe our ability to process this higher acid crude oil will
reduce our crude oil costs, improve our high-value product
output, and contribute significantly to higher earnings. We
believe this agreement will improve our competitiveness and
reduce the impact of pricing volatility on our refinery margins.
Our Four Corners refineries operated at an average throughput
rate of approximately 29,400 barrels per day in 2005 and
28,300 barrels per day in 2004.
Revenues increased in 2005 primarily due to significantly higher
finished product prices as a result of favorable market
conditions and an increase in volumes sold.
Refining margins in 2005 were $14.03 per barrel as compared
to $8.96 per barrel for the same period in 2004. The
increase in 2005 was primarily due to increased demand, lower
imports of finished products into the West Coast, lower
nationwide production due to the damage to refineries done by
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and limited refining capacity in
the United States.
Operating expenses increased in 2005 primarily due to increased
employee costs, higher purchased fuel costs, and increased
repairs and maintenance expenditures.
Depreciation and amortization expense for our Four Corners
refineries increased in 2005 primarily due to additional
depreciable assets that were placed in service during the fourth
quarter of 2004.
Revenues for our retail group increased in 2005 primarily due to
an increase in finished product selling prices and an increase
in fuel volumes sold.
Average fuel margin was $0.19 per gallon in 2005 as
compared to $0.18 per gallon for the same period in 2004
primarily due to improved market conditions. Fuel volumes sold
in 2005 increased by 4% as compared to the same period a year
ago due to improved market conditions.
Average merchandise margin was 27% in 2005 as compared to 24% in
2004. The increase in merchandise margins was primarily due to,
among other factors, lower rebates in 2004.
Operating expenses for our retail group increased in 2005
primarily due to an increase in higher employee costs, bank
charges and additional rent expenses incurred in our operations.
Depreciation and amortization expense for our retail group
increased in 2005 primarily due to additional amortization of
our leasehold improvements.
40
Gasoline and diesel fuel volumes sold by Phoenix Fuel remained
flat in 2005. Average gasoline and diesel fuel margins for
Phoenix Fuel were $0.07 per gallon for 2005 and were
$0.05 per gallon for 2004 due to favorable market
conditions.
Revenues for Phoenix Fuel increased in 2005 primarily due to a
26% increase in finished product selling prices as a result of
improved market conditions.
Our Phoenix Fuel finished product margins increased in 2005 as
compared to 2004 primarily due to improved market conditions.
Operating expenses for Phoenix Fuel increased in 2005 as
compared to 2004 primarily as a result of higher transportation
costs.
No comparative analysis is presented for Dial Oil because it was
acquired in the third quarter of 2005 and no prior period
statistics are included above.
|
|
|
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
(SG&A) |
For the year ended December 31, 2005, SG&A expenses
increased approximately $7,339,000 or 19% to $45,173,000 from
$37,834,000 in the comparable 2004 period. The increase was
primarily due to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
higher management incentive bonuses associated with improved
company financial performance; and |
| |
| |
• |
additional expenses incurred in relation to our 401(k) plan. |
These increases were partially offset by:
|
|
|
| |
• |
a reduction in costs related to our self-insured health plan due
to improved claims experience; and |
| |
| |
• |
lower legal costs as a result of legal expense reimbursements
from our insurance carriers. |
For the year ended December 31, 2005, interest expense
decreased approximately $8,422,000 or 26% to $24,485,000 from
$32,907,000 in the comparable 2004 period as a result of our
refinancing transactions in 2005. See Note 8 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 for a
further description of these transactions.
|
|
|
Net Loss on the Disposal/ Write-Down of Assets |
For the year ended December 31, 2005, we recorded a net
loss of $1,009,000 on the disposal of assets. This loss was
primarily due to a write-down of $1,284,000 relating to our
secondary crude tower at Ciniza, partially offset by gains of
$275,000 on sales of assets in the ordinary course of business.
For the year ended December 31, 2004, we recorded a net
loss of $161,000 on the disposal of assets. This included losses
totaling $65,000 on the sale of vacant land and losses totaling
$96,000 incurred as a result of sales and write-downs of other
assets in the ordinary course of business.
|
|
|
Income Taxes from Continuing Operations |
The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2005
was approximately 39.9%. The effective tax rate for the year
ended December 31, 2004 was approximately 39.5%.
41
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations include the operations of some of our
retail service station/convenience stores. See Note 5 to
our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8
for additional information relating to these operations.
Outlook
Due to market conditions, our current refining margins at
Yorktown are weaker than at the same time last year and refining
margins at our Four Corners refineries are currently higher than
the same time last year. As a result of the November 25,
2005 fire at our Yorktown refinery, the refinery has not
returned to full production. For further information regarding
the Yorktown refinery fire, its impact on our operations, and
possible related insurance recoveries, see the discussion of the
Yorktown Refinery Fire Incident in Items 1 and 2, the
discussion contained in Item 1A, and the information
regarding commitments and contingencies in Note 17.
Our wholesale group continues to experience growth in fuel
volumes, but is experiencing lower margins as compared to the
same time last year.
Our retail operations are continuing to experience growth in
both merchandise and fuel sales on a comparable store basis.
Recently, fuel margins within our retail operations have
improved in comparison to the same time last year, while
merchandise margins have remained stable.
Our businesses are very volatile and there can be no assurance
that currently existing conditions will continue for any of our
business segments.

Earnings (Loss) From Continuing Operations Before Income
Taxes |
Our earnings from continuing operations before income taxes
increased $6,690,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004.
This increase was, among other things, primarily due to the
following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
an increase in operating earnings before corporate allocations
from our refinery operations of $19,695,000 primarily due to
higher margins; |
| |
| |
• |
a 10% increase in fuel volumes sold by Phoenix Fuel and slightly
higher margins; |
| |
| |
• |
a $6,086,000 decrease in interest expense due to our refinancing
transactions in 2004; and, |
| |
| |
• |
a $3,907,000 gain from an insurance settlement due to a fire
incident. |
This increase was partially offset by the following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
an $11,811,000 increase in operating expenses; |
| |
| |
• |
a 8.5% decline in fuel volumes sold from our Four Corners
refineries; |
| |
| |
• |
$10,564,000 of costs incurred and write-offs of $4,885,000 of
previously deferred financing costs and original issue discount
that were related to early extinguishment of part of our
long-term debt as a result of the refinancing transactions in
2004; and |
| |
| |
• |
a 17% decline in our retail group’s merchandise margin due
to, among other things, an inventory reduction and lower rebates. |
Our Yorktown refinery operated at an average throughput rate of
approximately 58,900 barrels per day in 2004, compared to
57,700 barrels per day in 2003. This increase was primarily
due to the shutdowns that occurred in 2003, which reduced our
throughput rates in 2003.
Revenues for our Yorktown refinery increased in 2004 primarily
due to increases in volume and price per barrel sold.
42
Refining margins for 2004 were $5.60 per barrel as compared
to $4.07 per barrel for the same period in 2003. This
increase was primarily due to increased demand, lower imports
into the East Coast of finished products, lower nationwide
production due to a number of turnarounds performed at
refineries operated by others, and limited refining capacity in
the United States.
Operating expenses increased in 2004 primarily due to the
following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
higher maintenance costs primarily related to tank inspections
and repairs and coker unit repairs; |
| |
| |
• |
higher operating costs due to higher volumes, higher electrical
costs and higher purchased costs of natural gas; |
| |
| |
• |
higher chemical and catalyst costs, primarily related to higher
cost catalyst required to meet more stringent sulfur reduction
requirements; and |
| |
| |
• |
higher payroll and related costs, due in part to the
capitalization of certain wages in the first half of 2003
(primarily due to turnaround activity) and increased group
medical insurance premiums and worker’s compensation costs. |
Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 2004
primarily due to the amortization of certain refinery turnaround
costs incurred in 2003.
As discussed more fully under the heading “Raw Material
Supply” in Items 1 and 2 of Part I, in February
2004, we entered into a long-term crude oil supply agreement
with Statoil. We believe our ability to process this higher acid
crude oil will reduce our crude oil costs, improve our
high-value product output, and contribute significantly to
higher earnings. We believe this agreement will improve our
competitiveness and reduce the impact of pricing volatility on
our refining margins.
Our Four Corners refineries operated at an average throughput
rate of approximately 28,300 barrels per day in 2004 and
30,600 barrels per day in 2003. The decrease was primarily
due to the reduced availability of crude oil.
Revenues increased in 2004 primarily due to significantly higher
prices, partially offset by lower volume. Sales volumes were
reduced in 2004 because of lower crude oil supplies, the Ciniza
fire that occurred on April 8, 2004, and a turnaround at
Ciniza.
Refining margins in 2004 were $8.96 per barrel as compared
to $8.81 per barrel for the same period in 2003. The
increase in 2004 was primarily due to increased demand, lower
imports into the West Coast of finished products, lower
nationwide production due to the number of turnarounds performed
at refineries operated by others, and limited refining capacity
in the United States.
Operating expenses increased in 2004 primarily due to increased
maintenance required for the Bloomfield refinery.
Depreciation and amortization expense for our Four Corners
refineries increased slightly in 2004 primarily due to
additional depreciable assets that were placed in service.
Revenues for our retail group increased in 2004 primarily due to
an increase in finished product selling prices. Similarly, cost
of products sold for our retail group increased in 2004
primarily due to an increase in finished product purchase prices.
Average fuel margin was $0.18 per gallon in 2004 as
compared to $0.20 per gallon for the same period in 2003
primarily due to market conditions and higher cost of finished
products. Fuel volumes sold in 2004 increased by 6% as compared
to the same period a year ago due to market conditions.
43
Average merchandise margin was 24% in 2004 as compared to 29% in
2003. This decrease was due to an inventory reduction and lower
rebates from suppliers during 2004 as compared to 2003.
Operating expenses for our retail group decreased in 2004
primarily due to a reduction in payroll and related costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense for our retail group
decreased in 2004 primarily due to some retail assets becoming
fully depreciated.
Gasoline and diesel fuel volumes sold by Phoenix Fuel increased
by 10% in 2004. Average gasoline and diesel fuel margins for
Phoenix Fuel were $0.05 per gallon for 2004 and 2003.
Revenues for Phoenix Fuel increased in 2004 primarily due to a
25% increase in finished product selling prices and a 10%
increase in finished product volumes sold. Finished product
sales volumes increased primarily due to marketing efforts to
attract new customers and increased sales to existing customers
because of increased demand and expanded customer operations.
Our Phoenix Fuel finished product margins increased slightly in
2004.
Operating expenses for Phoenix Fuel increased in 2004 primarily
as a result of higher payroll and related costs due to higher
sales volumes, and higher transportation costs due to expanded
fleet expenses, which were also related to higher sales volumes.

|
|
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
from Continuing Operations |
For the year ended December 31, 2004, SG&A expenses
increased approximately $7,217,000 or 24% to $37,834,000 from
$30,617,000 in the comparable 2003 period. The increase was
primarily due to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
higher management incentive bonuses associated with improved
company financial performance; |
| |
| |
• |
higher litigation reserves; and |
| |
| |
• |
increased costs associated with complying with the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. |
These increases were partially offset by a reduction in costs
related to our self-insured health plan due to improved claims
experience.
For the year ended December 31, 2004, interest expense
decreased approximately $6,086,000 or 16% to $32,907,000 from
$38,993,000 in the comparable 2003 period as a result of our
refinancing transactions in 2004. See Note 8 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 for a
further description of these transactions.
|
|
|
Net (Gain) Loss on the Disposal/ Write-Down of
Assets |
For the year ended December 31, 2004, we recorded a net
loss of $161,000 on the disposal of assets. This included losses
totaling $65,000 on the sale of vacant land and losses totaling
$96,000 incurred as a result of sales and write-downs of other
assets in the ordinary course of business. For the year ended
December 31, 2003, we recorded net losses on the
disposal/write-down of assets of $1,837,000. This amount
includes the write-off of $901,000 of capitalized costs relating
to a capital project associated with our Four Corners refinery
operations, which management determined was no longer viable

Income Taxes from Continuing Operations |
The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2004
was approximately 39.5%. The effective tax rate for the year
ended December 31, 2003 was approximately 39.2%.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations include the operations of some of our
retail service station/convenience stores and our travel center,
which was sold on June 19, 2003. See Note 5 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 for
additional information relating to these operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2005 we had long-term debt of $274,864,000.
At December 31, 2004 our long-term debt was $292,759,000.
The amount at December 31, 2005 includes:
|
|
|
| |
• |
$150,000,000 before discount, of 8% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2014; and |
| |
| |
• |
$130,001,000 before discount, of 11% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2012. |
The amount at December 31, 2004 includes:
|
|
|
| |
• |
$150,000,000 before discount, of 8% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2014; and |
| |
| |
• |
$148,829,000 before discount, of 11% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2012. |
As discussed in more detail in Note 8 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Item 8, we completed the
refinancing of a portion of our long-term debt in the second
quarter of 2005. As part of the refinancing, we completed the
following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the sale of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock; and |
| |
| |
• |
a redemption of approximately $18,828,000 of our 11% senior
subordinated notes. |
In connection with these transactions, we incurred and expensed
$2,082,000 of costs associated with early debt extinguishment,
and we wrote off $1,009,000 of previously deferred financing
costs and original issue discount.
At December 31, 2005, our long-term debt was 40.7% of total
capital. At December 31, 2004, it was 57.5%. Our net debt
(long-term debt, net of current portion less cash and cash
equivalents) to total capitalization (long-term debt, net of
current portion less cash and cash equivalents plus total
stockholders’ equity) percentage at December 31, 2005,
was 21.7%. At December 31, 2004, this percentage was 55.4%.
The decrease in each percentage is primarily related to an
increase in cash provided by operating activities during 2005,
the reduction in long-term debt during 2005 and the issuance of
additional shares of our stock as discussed in more detail in
Note 8 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Item 8.
At December 31, 2005, we also had a $175,000,000 revolving
credit facility that we entered into on June 27, 2005. The
credit facility amended and restated a similar credit facility.
This amendment, among other things, extends the maturity of the
facility for an additional three years and increased the maximum
amount that we may borrow from $100,000,000 to $175,000,000.
This amendment also reduces our existing borrowing and letter of
credit costs and relaxes some of the covenants in the credit
facility. Due to this amendment, we also incurred financing
costs in connection with our credit facility that have been
deferred and are being amortized over the term of the facility.
We also expanded the size of our bank group to accommodate a
much larger credit facility should it become useful. For a
further discussion of this matter, see Note 8 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8.
45
The credit facility is primarily a working capital and letter of
credit facility. At December 31, 2005, we had no direct
borrowings outstanding under the facility and $66,771,000 of
letters of credit outstanding. At December 31, 2004, we had
no direct borrowings outstanding under the previous facility and
$12,068,000 of letters of credit outstanding.
As described in more detail in Note 8 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Item 8, the indentures
governing our notes and our credit facility contain restrictive
covenants and other terms and conditions that if not maintained,
if violated, or if certain conditions are met, could result in
default, affect our ability to borrow funds, make certain
payments, or engage in certain activities. A default under any
of the notes or the credit facility could cause such debt, and
by reason of cross-default provisions, our other debt to become
immediately due and payable. If we are unable to repay such
amounts, the lenders under our credit facility could proceed
against the collateral granted to them to secure that debt. If
our lenders accelerate the payment of the credit facility, we
cannot provide assurance that our assets would be sufficient to
pay that debt and other debt or that we would be able to
refinance such debt or borrow more money on terms acceptable to
us, if at all. Our ability to comply with the covenants, and
other terms and conditions, of the indentures and the credit
facility may be affected by many events beyond our control. For
example, higher than anticipated capital expenditures or a
prolonged period of low refining margins could have a negative
impact on our ability to borrow funds and to make expenditures
and could have an adverse impact on compliance with our
covenants. We cannot provide assurance that our operating
results will be sufficient to allow us to comply with the
covenants.
Our level of debt and these covenants may, among other things:
|
|
|
| |
• |
limit our ability to use cash flow, or obtain additional
financing, for future working capital needs, capital
expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate purposes; |
| |
| |
• |
restrict our ability to pay dividends or purchase shares of our
common stock; |
| |
| |
• |
require a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations
to make interest payments; |
| |
| |
• |
limit our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in
business and industry conditions; |
| |
| |
• |
place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to less
leveraged competitors; and |
| |
| |
• |
increase our vulnerability to the impact of adverse economic and
industry conditions and, to the extent of our outstanding debt
under our floating rate debt facilities, the impact of increases
in interest rates. |
If we are unable to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
generate sufficient cash flow from operations; |
| |
| |
• |
borrow sufficient funds to service our debt; or |
| |
| |
• |
meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, |
then, due to borrowing base restrictions, increased letter of
credit requirements, or otherwise, we may be required to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
sell additional assets; |
| |
| |
• |
reduce capital expenditures; |
| |
| |
• |
refinance all or a portion of our existing debt; or |
| |
| |
• |
obtain additional financing. |
We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to do any of
these things on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
We presently have senior subordinated ratings of “B3”
from Moody’s Investor Services and “B-” from
Standard & Poor’s.

Cash Flow From Operations |
Our cash flow from operations depends primarily on producing and
selling quantities of refined products at margins sufficient to
cover fixed and variable expenses. In recent years, crude oil
costs and prices of refined products have fluctuated
substantially. These costs and prices depend on numerous
factors, including:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the supply of and demand for crude oil, gasoline and other
refined products; |
| |
| |
• |
changes in the U.S. economy; |
| |
| |
• |
changes in the level of foreign and domestic production of crude
oil and refined products; |
| |
| |
• |
worldwide political conditions; |
| |
| |
• |
the extent of government laws; and |
| |
| |
• |
local factors, including market conditions, pipeline capacity,
and the level of operations of other refineries in our markets. |
Our crude oil requirements are supplied from sources that
include major oil companies, large independent producers, and
smaller local producers. Except for our long-term supply
agreement with Statoil, our crude oil supply contracts are
generally relatively short-term contracts. These contracts
generally contain market-responsive pricing provisions. An
increase in crude oil prices could adversely affect our
operating margins if we are unable to pass along the increased
cost of raw materials to our customers.
Our sale prices for refined products are influenced by the
commodity price of crude oil. Generally, an increase or decrease
in the price of crude oil results in a corresponding increase or
decrease in the price of gasoline and other refined products.
The timing of the relative movement of the prices, however, as
well as the overall change in product prices, could reduce
profit margins and could have a significant impact on our
refining and marketing operations, earnings, and cash flows. In
addition, we maintain inventories of crude oil, intermediate
products, and refined products, the values of which are subject
to rapid fluctuation in market prices. Price level changes
during the period between purchasing feedstocks and selling the
manufactured refined products could have a significant effect on
our operating results. Any long-term adverse relationships
between costs and prices could impact our ability to generate
sufficient operating cash flows to meet our working capital
needs.
Moreover, the industry is highly competitive. Many of our
competitors are large, integrated oil companies which, because
of their more diverse operations, larger refineries, stronger
capitalization and better brand name recognition, may be better
able than we are to withstand volatile industry conditions,
including shortages or excesses of crude oil or refined products
or intense price competition at the wholesale and retail levels.
Because some of our competitors’ refineries are larger and
more efficient than our refineries, these refineries may have
lower per barrel crude oil refinery processing costs.
Our ability to borrow funds under our current revolving credit
facility could be adversely impacted by low product prices that
could reduce our borrowing base related to eligible accounts
receivable and inventories. In addition, the structuring of the
Statoil supply agreement results in a lower availability of
funds under the borrowing base calculation of our credit
facility, however, because of the terms of the Statoil
agreement, our borrowing needs have been reduced. Our debt
instruments also contain restrictive covenants that limit our
ability to borrow funds if certain thresholds are not
maintained. See the discussion above in Capital Structure for
further information relating to these loan covenants.
We anticipate that working capital, including that necessary for
capital expenditures and debt service, will be funded through
existing cash balances, cash generated from operating
activities, existing credit facilities, and, if necessary,
future financing arrangements. Future liquidity, both short and
long-term, will continue to be primarily dependent on producing
or purchasing, and selling, sufficient quantities of refined
products at margins sufficient to cover fixed and variable
expenses. Based on the current operating environment for all of
our operations and our anticipated borrowing capacity, we
believe that we will have sufficient working capital to meet our
needs over the next
12-month period.
47
Working capital at December 31, 2005 consisted of current
assets of $442,355,000 and current liabilities of $208,508,000,
or a current ratio of 2.12:1. At December 31, 2004, the
current ratio was 1.80:1, with current assets of $232,005,000
and current liabilities of $128,833,000.
|
|
|
Capital Expenditures and Resources |
Cash used for capital expenditures totaled approximately
$70,659,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and
$58,671,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Expenditures for 2005 were primarily for building and revamping
our refinery units to comply with the low sulfur fuel regulatory
requirements and the Yorktown consent decree. For a further
discussion of these matters, see the related discussions in Risk
Factors in Item 1A and in Note 17 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8. Expenditures for 2004 were
primarily for rebuilding the alkylation unit that was damaged by
the fire at our Ciniza refinery on April 8, 2004, upgrades
at our Yorktown refinery required to process additional volumes
of higher acid crude oil, a turnaround at our Ciniza refinery,
and the purchase of a hydrogen plant for our Yorktown refinery.
We received proceeds of approximately $4,526,000 from the sale
of property, plant and equipment and other assets in 2005 and
$11,823,000 in 2004. Proceeds received in 2005 primarily were
from the sale of a property in the ordinary course of business
and one store that was classified as asset held for sale. We
also received approximately $3,688,000 and $6,612,000 of
insurance proceeds due to the fire incident at Ciniza in 2005
and 2004, respectively.
On August 1, 2005, we acquired an idle crude oil pipeline
running from Jal, New Mexico to Bisti, New Mexico and related
assets from Texas-New Mexico Pipe Line Company. This pipeline is
connected to our existing pipeline network that directly
supplies crude oil to the Bloomfield and Ciniza refineries. We
have begun testing the pipeline and taking other actions related
to placing it in service. Unless currently unanticipated
obstacles are encountered, we anticipate the pipeline will
become operational before the end of 2006.
On July 12, 2005, we acquired 100% of the common shares of
Dial Oil Co. (“Dial Oil”). We funded this acquisition
with cash on hand. Dial Oil is a wholesale distributor of
gasoline, diesel and lubricants in the Four Corners area of the
Southwest. Dial Oil also owns and operates 12 service
stations/ convenience stores. Dial Oil’s assets include
bulk petroleum distribution plants, cardlock fueling locations,
and a fleet of truck transports.
We continue to monitor and evaluate our assets and may sell
additional non-strategic or underperforming assets that we
identify as circumstances allow. We also continue to evaluate
potential acquisitions in our strategic markets, including
retail lease arrangements.
As part of the Yorktown refinery acquisition in 2002, we agreed
to pay to the sellers earn-out payments based on certain market
value factors up to a maximum of $25,000,000. This requirement
was satisfied in the third quarter of 2004. For a further
discussion of these earn-out payments see Note 4 to our
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
In prior years, we initiated two capital projects relating to
our Four Corners refinery operations, and capitalized
approximately $2,900,000 of costs associated with these
projects. In the third quarter of 2003, we completed an ongoing
evaluation of these projects and wrote off $901,000 of
capitalized costs relating to one capital project after
determining that it was no longer viable. In the third quarter
of 2005, we wrote off $1,300,000 of capitalized costs of certain
refinery assets relating to one of these capital projects as we
significantly changed the extent to which these assets were to
be used. We currently anticipate that the other capital project
in the approximate amount of $1,600,000 will be completed in the
third quarter of 2006. The project is intended to enhance
operations at the Ciniza refinery.
We have budgeted to spend up to approximately $201,000,000 for
capital expenditures in 2006 excluding any potential
acquisitions. Of this amount, approximately $116,000,000 is for
the completion of projects that were started in 2005.
Approximately $122,000,000 is budgeted for capital projects to
produce motor fuel that
48
will comply with low sulfur standards. Approximately $23,000,000
is budgeted for capital projects due to the Yorktown refinery
fire incident. We believe a significant amount of these
expenditures will be reimbursed by insurance. In addition,
approximately $40,000,000 is budgeted for non-discretionary
projects that are required by law or regulation or to maintain
the physical integrity of existing assets. Another $19,000,000
is budgeted for discretionary projects to sustain or enhance the
current level of operations, increase earnings associated with
existing or new businesses, and to expand existing operations.
Our budget also includes $6,000,000 for capital expenditure
contingencies.
Much of the capital currently budgeted for environmental
compliance is integrally related to operations or to
operationally required projects. We do not specifically identify
capital expenditures related to such projects on the basis of
whether they are for environmental as opposed to economic
purposes. With respect to our operating expenses for
environmental compliance, while records are not kept
specifically identifying or allocating such expenditures, we
believe that we incur significant operating expense for such
purposes. For further discussion of projects that we will be
undertaking in order to comply with environmental requirements
and associated capital expenditures, including our plans to
comply with the previously discussed low sulfur standards, see
the related discussions under the caption Regulatory and
Environmental Matters included in Items 1 and 2, in
Risk Factors in Item 1A, below under the caption Clean
Fuels and Settlement Agreements Expenditures, and in
Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 8.
We continue to investigate other capital improvements to our
existing facilities. The amount of capital projects that are
actually undertaken in 2006 will depend on, among other things,
general business conditions and results of operations.
Changes in the tax laws and changes in federal and state
environmental laws also may increase future capital and
operating expenditure levels.
We intend to fund the projects described above through our
operating cash flows, cash on hand, and if necessary, our
revolving credit facility. If these sources are insufficient, we
may need to secure additional financing, access the public debt
and equity markets, or sell assets. We cannot assure you that
these sources will be available.
Included in the table below is a list of our obligations to make
future payments under contracts and other agreements, as well as
certain other contingent commitments.

49
The amounts set out in the table, including payment dates, are
our best estimates at this time, but may vary as circumstances
change or we become aware of additional facts.
Raw material and finished product purchases were determined by
multiplying contract volumes by the price determined under the
contract as of December 31, 2005. The contracts underlying
these calculations all have variable pricing arrangements.
The above table does not include amounts for outstanding
purchase orders at December 31, 2005, amounts under
contracts that are cancelable by either party upon giving
notice, and amounts under agreements that are based on a
percentage of sales, such as credit card processing fees.
We cannot determine our future pension expenditures beyond 2006.
We are obligated to make a lump-sum payment to the pension
retirement plan each year. Not included in the table are certain
retiree medical and asset retirement obligations for which
annual funding is not required. Our asset retirement obligations
are discussed in more detail in Note 7 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8 and our pension plan and
retiree medical plan obligations are described in more detail in
Note 13.
The indentures governing our notes and our credit facility
contain restrictive covenants and other terms and conditions
that if not maintained, if violated, or if certain conditions
are met, could result in default, early redemption of the notes,
affect our ability to borrow funds, make certain payments, or
engage in certain activities. A default under any of the notes
or the credit facility could cause such debt, and by reason of
cross-default provisions, our other debt to become immediately
due and payable.

Standby letters of credit reduce the availability of funds for
direct borrowings under the line of credit. At December 31,
2005 there were no direct borrowings under the line of credit. |
The availability of letters of credit under our credit facility
is $100,000,000. Our inability to post satisfactory letters of
credit could constrain our ability to purchase feedstocks on the
most beneficial terms.

Clean Fuels and Settlement Agreements Expenditures |
The following table shows amounts we anticipate spending to
meet, among other things, certain clean fuel regulations and to
comply with environmental settlements, consent decrees, and
other agreements with government authorities that require
certain actions to be taken at our Yorktown and Four Corners
refineries. The table does not include amounts for which
environmental accruals have been established, which are instead
included in the long-term commitments table above. For a further
discussion of these environmental
50
accruals, see Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 8. These amounts are our best estimates
at this time, but may vary as circumstances change or we become
aware of additional facts.

Excluding accrued amounts. |
The amounts shown in the above table are the high end of our
estimated costs for these projects. We anticipate that the costs
could be between the following ranges:
|
|
|
| |
• |
Yorktown — Clean Fuels — $115,000,000 to
$130,000,000 of which $35,100,000 was spent in 2005; |
| |
| |
• |
Four Corners — Clean Fuels — $30,000,000 to
$40,000,000 of which $8,100,000 was spent in 2005; |
| |
| |
• |
Yorktown — Sewer System — $1,500,000 to
$3,500,000, none of which has been spent yet; |
| |
| |
• |
Yorktown Consent Decree — $20,000,000 to $27,000,000
of which $8,500,000 was spent in 2005; and |
| |
| |
• |
Four Corners Settlement Agreements — $10,000,000 to
$18,000,000, none of which has been spent yet. |
During 2005, our estimate of the costs associated with the clean
fuels projects increased primarily as a result of the following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
increased costs for contractors and manufactured products as a
result of increased demand arising from, among other things, the
fact that the clean fuels regulations apply to the entire
industry, and the need to repair damage in the Gulf Coast caused
by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita; |
| |
| |
• |
the scope of the projects at each of the refineries increasing,
including the decision to use a higher capacity gasoline
treating unit with a higher sulfur removal capability at our
Yorktown refinery; and |
| |
| |
• |
an increase in the cost of steel and concrete. |
For a more detailed description of these matters, including the
anticipated timing of the expenditures, please see the related
discussions under the caption Regulatory, Environmental and
Other Matters included in Items 1 and 2, in Risk
Factors in Item 1A, and in Note 17 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8.
We believe we will have sufficient resources to meet our working
capital requirements, including that necessary for capital
expenditures and debt service, over the next
12-month period because
of:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the current operating environment for all of our operations; |
| |
| |
• |
current cash balances; and |
| |
| |
• |
availability of funds under our revolving credit facility. |
51
We currently do not pay dividends on our common stock. The board
of directors will periodically review our policy regarding the
payment of dividends. Any future dividends are subject to the
results of our operations, declaration by the board of
directors, and existing debt covenants.
We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in
certain commodity prices and interest rates. To manage the
volatility relating to these normal business exposures, we may,
from time to time, use commodity futures and options contracts
to reduce price volatility, to fix margins in our refining and
marketing operations, and to protect against price declines
associated with our crude oil and finished products inventories.
Our policies for the use of derivative financial instruments set
limits on quantities, require various levels of approval and
require review and reporting procedures.
In 2003, we entered into various crude oil and gasoline futures
contracts to economically hedge crude oil and other inventories
and purchases for our Yorktown refinery operations. For the year
ended December 31, 2003, we recognized losses on these
contracts of approximately $1,594,000 in cost of products sold.
These transactions did not qualify for hedge accounting in
accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended,
and accordingly were marked to market each month. There were no
open crude oil futures contracts or other commodity derivative
contracts at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.
Our credit facility is floating-rate debt tied to various
short-term indices. As a result, our annual interest costs
associated with this debt may fluctuate. At December 31,
2005, there were no direct borrowings outstanding under this
facility.
Our operations are subject to the normal hazards, including
fire, explosion and weather-related perils. We maintain various
insurance coverages, including business interruption insurance,
subject to certain deductibles. We are not fully insured against
some risks because some risks are not fully insurable, coverage
is unavailable, or premium costs, in our judgment, do not
justify such expenditures.
Credit risk with respect to customer receivables is concentrated
in the geographic areas in which we operate and relates
primarily to customers in the oil and gas industry. To minimize
this risk, we perform ongoing credit evaluations of our
customers’ financial position and require collateral, such
as letters of credit, in certain circumstances.
|
|
|
Environmental, Health and Safety |
Federal, state and local laws relating to the environment,
health and safety affect nearly all of our operations. As is the
case with other companies engaged in similar industries, we face
significant exposure from actual or potential claims and
lawsuits involving environmental, health and safety matters.
These matters include soil and water contamination, air
pollution and personal injuries or property damage allegedly
caused by substances made, handled, used, released or disposed
of by us or by our predecessors.
Various laws govern the investigation and remediation of
contamination at our current and former properties, as well as
at third-party sites to which we sent wastes for disposal. We
may be held liable for contamination existing at our current or
former properties even though a prior operator of the site, or
other third party, caused the contamination. We also may be held
responsible for costs associated with contamination cleanup at
third-party disposal sites even if the original disposal
activities met all applicable regulatory requirements at the
time. We are now engaged in a number of these remediation
projects.
Our future expenditures for compliance with environmental,
health and safety matters cannot be reasonably quantified for
various reasons. These reasons include:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the uncertain nature of remediation and cleanup cost estimates
and methods; |
| |
| |
• |
imprecise and conflicting data regarding the hazardous nature of
various substances; |
52
|
|
|
| |
• |
the number of other potentially responsible parties involved; |
| |
| |
• |
defenses that may be available to us; and |
| |
| |
• |
changing environmental, health and safety laws, including
changing interpretations of these laws. |
We cannot give assurance that compliance with laws,
investigations, enforcement proceedings, private-party claims,
or cleanup requirements will not have a material adverse effect
on our business, financial condition or operating results. For a
further discussion of environmental, health and safety matters
affecting our operations, see the discussion of these matters
contained in Items 1 and 2 under the heading Regulatory and
Environmental Matters, in Risk Factors in Item 1A, and in
Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Rules and regulations implementing federal, state and local laws
relating to the environment, health and safety will continue to
affect our operations. We cannot predict what new environmental,
health or safety legislation or regulations will be enacted or
become effective in the future or how existing or future laws or
regulations will be administered or enforced with respect to our
products or activities. Compliance with more stringent laws or
regulations, as well as more vigorous enforcement policies of
the regulatory agencies, could have an adverse effect on our
financial position and operating results and could require
substantial expenditures by us for, among other things:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the installation and operation of refinery equipment, pollution
control systems and other equipment not currently possessed by
us; |
| |
| |
• |
the acquisition or modification of permits applicable to our
activities; and |
| |
| |
• |
the initiation or modification of cleanup activities. |
As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, we had environmental
liability accruals of approximately $4,941,000 and $6,156,000,
respectively, and litigation accruals in the aggregate of
approximately $990,000 and $525,000, respectively. The
environmental liability accruals summarized in the table below
are recorded in the current and long-term sections of our
Consolidated Balance Sheets. Environmental accruals are recorded
in the current and long-term sections of our Consolidated
Balance Sheets. See Note 17 to our Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 8 for a more detailed discussion of the
more significant of these projects, as well as of other
significant environmental commitments and contingencies.

In October 2004, the President of the United States signed the
American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the “Act”), which
includes energy related tax provisions that are available to
small refiners, including us. Under the Act, small refiners are
allowed to deduct for tax purposes up to 75% of capital
expenditures incurred to comply with the highway diesel low
sulfur regulations adopted by the Environmental Protection
Agency. The
53
deduction is taken in the year the capital expenditure is made.
Small refiners also are allowed to claim a credit against income
tax of five cents on each gallon of low sulfur diesel fuel they
produce, up to a maximum of 25% of the capital costs incurred to
comply with the regulations. We may be able to use this credit
in 2006.
In August 2005, the President signed the Energy Policy Act of
2005 (the “Energy Act”). Under the Energy Act,
refiners are allowed to deduct for tax purposes 50% of the cost
of capital expenditures that increase the capacity of an
existing refinery by at least 5%. The deduction is taken in the
year the capital expenditure is made. We may be able to use this
deduction in future years, if we have refinery projects that
increase capacity. The Energy Act also requires that most
refiners, blenders, and importers use more ethanol in their
fuels, with an industry-wide target of 4 billion gallons in
2006 that increases to 7.5 billion gallons in 2012. Each
refinery that has less than 75,000 barrels per day of crude
oil capacity, however, is exempted from participation in this
requirement until 2011. All of our refineries qualify for the
exemption.

Forward-Looking Statements |
This report contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and
Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These statements are
included throughout this report. These forward-looking
statements are not historical facts, but only predictions, and
generally can be identified by use of statements that include
phrases such as “believe,” “expect,”
“anticipate,” “estimate,” “could,”
“plan,” “intend,” “may,”
“project,” “predict,” “will” and
terms and phrases of similar import.
Although we believe the assumptions upon which these
forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of
these assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and the
forward-looking statements based on these assumptions could be
incorrect. While we have made these forward-looking statements
in good faith and they reflect our current judgment regarding
such matters, actual results could vary materially from the
forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements
included in this report are made only as of their respective
dates and we undertake no obligation to publicly update these
forward-looking statements to reflect new information, future
events or otherwise. In light of these risks, uncertainties and
assumptions, the forward-looking events might or might not
occur. Actual results and trends in the future may differ
materially depending on a variety of important factors.
These important factors include the following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the availability of crude oil and the adequacy and costs of raw
material supplies generally; |
| |
| |
• |
our ability to negotiate new crude oil supply contracts; |
| |
| |
• |
our ability to successfully manage the liabilities, including
environmental liabilities, that we assumed in the Yorktown, Dial
Oil and Tex-New Mexico pipeline acquisitions; |
| |
| |
• |
our ability to obtain anticipated levels of indemnification
associated with prior acquisitions and sales of assets; |
| |
| |
• |
competitive pressures from existing competitors and new
entrants, including the potential effects of various pipeline
projects, competitors’ plans, as well as plans of our own,
for expansion projects and refinery improvements that could
increase the production of refined products in New Mexico,
refinery improvements made, or being made, by competitors that
will enable them to process lower quality crude oils which are
typically less expensive to acquire, and other actions that may
impact our markets; |
| |
| |
• |
volatility in the difference, or spread, between market prices
for refined products and crude oil and other feedstocks; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that our operations will not remain competitive and
realize acceptable sales volumes and margins in those markets
where they currently do so; |
| |
| |
• |
our ability to adequately control capital and operating expenses; |
54
|
|
|
| |
• |
the risk that we will be unable to draw on our lines of credit,
secure additional financing, access the public debt or equity
markets or sell sufficient assets if we are unable to fund
anticipated capital expenditures from cash flow generated by
operations; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk of increased costs resulting from employee matters,
including increased employee benefit costs; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that our insurance costs will increase as a result of
claims we have submitted, market conditions, or other factors; |
| |
| |
• |
the adoption of new state, federal or tribal legislation or
regulations; changes to existing legislation (including the
scheduled elimination of the Arizona underground storage tank
fund in 2005) or regulations or their interpretation by
regulators or the courts; regulatory or judicial findings,
including penalties; as well as other future governmental
actions that may affect our operations, including the impact of
any further changes to government-mandated specifications for
gasoline, diesel fuel and other petroleum products; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that disagreements will arise between regulatory
agencies and us regarding our obligations under settlements,
consent decrees and other agreements; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that we will not be able to be able to reach an
agreement with EPA regarding financial assurance in connection
with the administrative consent order being developed by EPA
under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act for our
Yorktown refinery; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that we will not continue to qualify for an extension
of the low sulfur gasoline standards applicable to our Ciniza
and Bloomfield refineries if we are unable to produce the
necessary quantity of low sulfur diesel at the required time as
a result of, among other things, demands placed on engineering
firms and other consultants as a result of hurricane damage to
Gulf Coast refineries; |
| |
| |
• |
unplanned or extended shutdowns in refinery operations; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that future changes in operations to address issues
raised by threatened or pending litigation, customer
preferences, or other factors, including those related to our
discontinuing the use of MTBE as a motor fuel additive, may have
an adverse impact on our results of operations; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that we will not remain in compliance with covenants,
and other terms and conditions, contained in our notes and
credit facility; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that we will not be able to post satisfactory letters
of credit; |
| |
| |
• |
general economic factors affecting our operations, markets,
products, services and prices, including the potential impact of
additional quantities of Canadian crude oil that may enter the
U.S. market in the near future; |
| |
| |
• |
unexpected environmental remediation costs; |
| |
| |
• |
weather conditions affecting our operations or the areas in
which our products are refined or marketed; |
| |
| |
• |
that risk that we will not be able to complete regulatory
compliance projects, including motor fuel sulfur reduction
projects, by applicable deadlines as a result of, among other
things, demands placed on engineering firms and other
consultants as a result of hurricane damage to Gulf Coast
refineries, and the time and commitment required for us to
address the November fire at our Yorktown refinery; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that the repairs to our Yorktown refinery could take
longer or cost more than we expect; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that insurance coverage will not be available as we
expect in connection with the November 2005 at our Yorktown
refinery; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that the Yorktown refinery will not be able to continue
to operate at approximately 40,000 barrels per day while
repairs are being completed |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that additional turnaround time will be required in
2006 at the Yorktown refinery in spite of the work currently
being undertaken; |
55
|
|
|
| |
• |
the risk that the high return project on the fluid catalytic
cracker at the Yorktown refinery that we are currently
undertaking will cost more than we anticipate or not be as
successful in increasing our yield of higher value finished
products as we anticipate; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that the capital project in progress at our Ciniza
refinery will not enhance the operations of the refinery; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk we will be found to have substantial liability in
connection with existing or pending litigation; |
| |
| |
• |
the occurrence of events that cause losses for which we are not
fully insured; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that costs associated with environmental projects will
be higher than currently estimated (including costs associated
with the resolution of outstanding environmental matters and
costs associated with reducing the sulfur content of motor fuel)
or that we will be unable to complete such projects (including
motor fuel sulfur reduction projects) by applicable regulatory
compliance deadlines; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that we will be added as a defendant in additional MTBE
lawsuits, and that we will incur substantial liabilities and
substantial defense costs in connection with these suits; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that tax authorities will challenge the positions we
have taken in preparing our tax returns; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that changes in manufacturer promotional programs may
adversely impact our retail operations; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that the cost of testing the crude oil pipeline that we
purchased from Texas-New Mexico Pipe Line Company during the
third quarter of 2005, and the cost of placing it in service,
will be considerably more than our current estimates; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that the timetable for placing the crude oil pipeline
that we purchased in the third quarter of 2005 will be different
than anticipated, or that it will not be possible to place the
pipeline in service at all; |
| |
| |
• |
the risk that it will not be possible to obtain additional crude
oil at cost effective prices to either fill the crude oil
pipeline that we purchased in the third quarter of 2005 or
transport through the pipeline for processing at our Bloomfield
and Ciniza refineries; and |
| |
| |
• |
other risks described elsewhere in this report or described from
time to time in our other filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. |
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements
attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly
qualified in their entity by the previous statements.
Forward-looking statements we make represent our judgment on the
dates such statements are made. We assume no obligation to
update any information contained in this report or to publicly
release the results of any revisions to any forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur, or
that we become aware of, after the date of this report.

Financial Statements and Supplementary Data |
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Giant Industries, Inc.
Scottsdale, Arizona
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Giant Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and
the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Giant Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31,
2005 and 2004 and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended

Significant Noncash Investing and Financing Activities by
year. In the first quarter of 2005, we transferred $118,000
of property, plant and equipment to other assets. In the second
quarter of 2005, we contributed 34,196 newly issued shares of
our common stock, valued at $971,000, to our 401(k) plan as a
discretionary contribution for the year 2004. In connection with
our acquisition activity, we assumed approximately $18,377,000
of liabilities. In the fourth quarter of 2005, we granted
41,000 shares of restricted stock to our employees. These
awards are recorded as unearned compensation in
stockholders’ equity. See Note 10 for further
information. At December 31, 2005, approximately
$10,636,000 of purchases of property, plant and equipment had
not been paid and, accordingly, were accrued in accounts payable
and accrued liabilities. In accordance with Financial
Interpretation 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset
Retirement Obligations”, we recorded an ARO liability of
$147,000, and assets of $64,000 and related accumulated
depreciation of $30,000. We also recorded a cumulative
adjustment of $68,000, net of tax. During 2005, we also
capitalized approximately $3,261,000 of interest as part of
construction in progress.
In the first quarter of 2004, we contributed 49,046 newly issued
shares of our common stock, valued at $900,000, to our 401(k)
plan as a discretionary contribution for the year 2003. During
2004, we reclassed approximately $2,774,000 from assets held for
sale to inventory and property, plant and equipment. We also
capitalized approximately $161,000 of interest as part of
construction in progress in 2004. In the second quarter of 2004,
we issued $150,000,000 of 8% Senior Subordinated Notes at a
discount of $2,435,000.
On January 1, 2003, in accordance with
SFAS No. 143, we recorded an asset retirement
obligation of $2,198,000, asset retirement costs of $1,580,000
and related accumulated depreciation of $674,000. We also
reversed a previously recorded asset retirement obligation for
$120,000, and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of
$1,172,000 ($704,000 net of taxes). See Note 7. In the
third quarter of 2003, we contributed 213,776 newly issued
shares of our common stock, valued at $900,000, to our 401(k)
plan as a discretionary contribution for the year 2002. On
September 30, 2003, we paid off certain capital lease
obligations by paying approximately $4,703,000 in cash and by
applying a $2,000,000 deposit that had been included in
“Other Assets”. In the fourth quarter of 2004, we sold
our corporate headquarters building and approximately eight
acres of surrounding land. In connection with the sale, we
entered into a ten-year agreement to lease back our corporate
headquarters building. The gain on the sale of the property of
approximately $924,000 has been deferred and is being amortized
over the original lease term.

GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Organization and Significant
Accounting Policies:
Giant Industries, Inc., through our subsidiary Giant Industries
Arizona, Inc. and its subsidiaries, refines and sells petroleum
products. We do this:
|
|
|
| |
• |
on the East Coast — primarily in Virginia, Maryland,
and North Carolina; and |
| |
| |
• |
in the Southwest — primarily in New Mexico, Arizona,
and Colorado, with a concentration in the Four Corners area
where these states meet. |
In addition, our wholesale group distributes commercial
wholesale petroleum products primarily in Arizona and New Mexico.
We have three business units:
|
|
|
| |
• |
our refining group; |
| |
| |
• |
our retail group; and |
| |
| |
• |
our wholesale group. |
See Note 16 for a further discussion of business segments
and Notes 5 and 19 for recent dispositions and acquisitions.
|
|
|
Principles of Consolidation |
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Giant Industries, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated.
|
|
|
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial
Statements |
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Our business units recognize revenues when realized and earned
with all of the following criteria being met:
|
|
|
| |
• |
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; |
| |
| |
• |
delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; |
| |
| |
• |
the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or
determinable; and |
| |
| |
• |
collectibility is reasonably assured. |
Excise and other similar taxes are excluded from net revenues.
The Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (’FASB”), under Issue
No. 04-13, Accounting for Purchases and Sales of Inventory
with the Same Counterparty, reached a consensus in September
2005 that some or all of such buy/sell arrangements should be
accounted for at historical cost pursuant to the guidance in
paragraph 21(a) of Accounting Principles Board
(“APB”) Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for
Nonmonetary Transactions”. Our buy/sell arrangements with a
single
63
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
counterparty are reported on a net basis and, accordingly, we
believe we are in compliance with this EITF. The net proceeds
for these type of transactions were approximately
$11 million, $7 million and $5 million in 2005,
2004, and 2003, respectively.
We consider all highly liquid instruments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Our policies for the use of derivative financial instruments set
limits on quantities, require various levels of approval, and
require review and reporting procedures.
We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in
certain commodity prices and interest rates. To manage the
volatility relating to these normal business exposures, from
time to time, we use commodity futures and options contracts to
reduce price volatility, to fix margins in our refining and
marketing operations, and to protect against price declines
associated with our crude oil and finished products inventories.
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, such transactions
are considered to be operating activities.
Gains and losses on all transactions that do not qualify for
hedge accounting are reflected in earnings in the period that
they occur.
We had no open commodity futures or options contracts at
December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.
We have entered into purchase and supply arrangements which
qualify as normal purchases and sales and are exempt from fair
value recognition in the financial statements.
|
|
|
Concentration of Credit Risk |
Our credit risk with respect to customer receivables is
concentrated in the geographic areas in which we operate and
relates primarily to customers in the oil and gas industry. To
minimize this risk, we perform ongoing credit evaluations of our
customers’ financial position and require collateral, such
as letters of credit, in certain circumstances. We maintain our
cash and cash equivalents with federally insured banking
institutions or other financial service providers. From time to
time, balances maintained in these institutions may exceed
amounts that are federally insured. All of the financial
institutions we use are major banking institutions and reputable
financial service providers.
Our trade receivables result primarily from the sale of refined
products, various grades of gasoline and diesel fuel,
lubricants, and merchandise from our three refineries, Phoenix
Fuel Co., Inc. (“Phoenix Fuel”) and Dial Oil Co.
(“Dial Oil”). These sales are made to independent
wholesalers and retailers, industrial/commercial accounts and
major oil companies. In addition, our service
station/convenience stores sell refined products, merchandise,
and food products, some of which are purchased by the customer
by use of a credit card.
We extend credit to our refining, Phoenix Fuel and Dial Oil
customers based on criteria established by our management,
including ongoing credit evaluations. We usually extend credit
on an unsecured basis, but we may require collateral, such as
letters of credit, in some circumstances. An allowance for
doubtful accounts is provided based on a number of factors that
include, but are not limited to, the current evaluation of each
customer’s credit risk; the delinquent status of a
customer’s account; collection efforts made; current
economic conditions; past experience and other available
information. Uncollectible trade receivables are charged against
the allowance for doubtful accounts when we have exhausted all
reasonable efforts to collect the
64
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
amounts due, including litigation if the amounts and
circumstances warrant such action. The allowance for doubtful
accounts is reflected in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a
reduction of trade receivables.
Our trade receivables are pledged as collateral for borrowings
under our revolving credit facility. At December 31, 2005
and 2004, we had no direct borrowings outstanding under the
facility in place at that time.
Our major categories of trade receivables are as follows:

Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Costs
for crude oil and refined products produced by our refineries
are determined by the
last-in, first-out
(“LIFO”) method. Costs for our retail, wholesale,
exchange and terminal refined products inventories and shop
supplies are determined by the
first-in, first-out
(“FIFO”) method. Costs for merchandise inventories at
our retail locations are determined by the retail inventory
method. See Note 2 for additional information.
|
|
|

Our property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and are
depreciated on the straight-line method over the following

Our leasehold improvements are depreciated on the straight-line
method over the shorter of the contractual lease terms or the
estimated useful lives.
Routine maintenance, repairs and replacement costs are charged
against earnings as incurred. Turnaround costs, which consist of
complete shutdown and inspection of significant units of the
refineries at intervals of two or more years for necessary
repairs and replacements, are deferred and amortized over the
period until the next expected shutdown, which generally ranges
from 24 to 60 months depending on the type of shutdown and
the unit involved. For turnaround purposes, we divide the
operating units at our Yorktown refinery into three major
groups. Each of these major groups has a major turnaround
approximately every five years. For our Four Corners refineries,
major turnarounds are generally scheduled approximately every
five years, but may be more frequent for some units. Unscheduled
maintenance shutdowns also may occur at the refineries from time
to time. Expenditures that materially increase values, expand
capacities, or extend useful lives are capitalized. Interest
expense is capitalized as part of the cost of constructing major
facilities and equipment.

SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets” requires, among other things, that goodwill not be
amortized, but be tested for impairment annually, or as events
and circumstances indicate. See Note 4 for applicable
disclosures.
Goodwill, which results from business acquisitions, represents
the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net
assets acquired and is carried at cost less accumulated
amortization and write-offs.
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, we review
the carrying values of our long-lived assets for possible
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of assets to be held and used may not
be recoverable. For assets to be disposed of, we report
long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles at the
lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. See
Note 5 for information relating to the impairment of
certain assets.

Asset Retirement Obligations |
SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations” (“SFAS No. 143”) requires
that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement
obligation (“ARO”) be recognized in the period in
which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can
be made. The associated asset retirement costs (“ARC”)
are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived
asset. In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation 47,
“Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement
Obligations” (FIN 47). This interpretation clarifies
the term conditional asset retirement obligation as used in
SFAS No. 143. Conditional asset retirement obligation
refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement
activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are
conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the
control of the entity. Accordingly, an entity is required to
recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset
retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be
reasonably estimated. Clarity is also provided regarding when an
entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate
the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is
to be applied no later than the end of fiscal years ending after
December 15, 2005. In conjunction with FIN 47, we
reviewed our operations in the fourth quarter of 2005 and
recorded an ARO liability of $147,000, ARC assets of $64,000 and
related accumulated depreciation of $30,000. We also recorded a
cumulative adjustment of $114,000 ($68,000 net of tax). See
Note 7 for additional disclosures.
We have 3,751,980 shares of our common stock classified as
treasury stock. These shares were acquired under a stock
repurchase program and an issuer tender offer at a weighted
average cost of approximately $9.72 per share. These shares
are available for a number of corporate purposes including,
among others, for options, bonuses, and other employee stock
benefit plans.

|
Environmental Expenditures |
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are
expensed or capitalized depending on the circumstances.
Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past
operations, and which do not result in an asset with an economic
life greater than one year, are expensed. Liabilities are
recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts
are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated.
Environmental liabilities are not discounted to their present
value and are recorded without consideration of potential
recoveries from third parties, although we do take into account
amounts that others are contractually obligated to pay us.
Subsequent adjustments to estimates, which may be significant,
may be made as more

information becomes available or as circumstances change. See
Note 17 for disclosures relating to environmental
expenditures.
The provision for income taxes is based on earnings reported in
the financial statements. Deferred income taxes are provided to
reflect temporary differences between the basis of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and income tax
purposes, as well as the effects of tax credits. We file
consolidated federal and state income tax returns for the states
in which we operate, except in states that are not unitary. See
Note 14 for disclosures relating to income taxes.

|
|
Earnings Per Common Share |
Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with
SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic
earnings per common share are computed by dividing consolidated
net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during each period. Earnings per common share
assuming dilution are computed by dividing consolidated net
earnings by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding plus additional shares representing the
exercise of outstanding common stock options and restricted
stock awards issued using the treasury stock method, unless such
calculation is antidilutive. See Note 15 for disclosures
relating to earnings per share.

|
|
Other Comprehensive Income |
We do not have any component of other comprehensive income for
the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003,
respectively.
We have analyzed the guarantee provided in certain of our lease
arrangements under the provisions of FASB Interpretation
No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure
Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others” (“Interpretation
No. 45”). As of December 31, 2005 the liability
of the guarantee obligation undertaken under these arrangements
was not material.

Stock-based Employee Compensation |
We have a stock-based employee compensation plan that is more
fully described in Note 10. We account for this plan under
the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25,
“Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and
related Interpretations. We use the intrinsic value method to
account for stock-based employee compensation. The following
table illustrates the

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R,
“Share-Based Payment” that revised
SFAS No. 123. This revision requires us to measure the
cost of employee services received in exchange for stock options
granted using the fair value method as of the beginning of 2006.
We will adopt this statement beginning January 1, 2006. We
do not expect this statement to have a material impact on our
financial statements.
On December 6, 2005, 41,000 shares of restricted stock
were granted to 39 employees. These awards vest ratably over
five years. In accordance with APB 25, “Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees”, we recorded these awards as
deferred compensation to stockholders’ equity and we will
amortize the deferred compensation balance over five years using
the straight-line method. See Note 10 for further
information.

New Accounting Pronouncements |
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 151, “Inventory
Costs — An Amendment of ARB No. 43,
Chapter 4”, which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2005. This Statement requires that
idle capacity expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted
materials (spoilage), regardless of whether these costs are
considered abnormal, be treated as current period charges. In
addition, this statement requires that allocation of fixed
overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal
capacity of the production facilities. We have not yet
determined the impact of this pronouncement on our financial
statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 153, “Exchanges
of Nonmonetary Assets — An Amendment of APB Opinion
29”. The basic principle in Opinion 29 provides that
nonmonetary exchanges should be measured based on the fair value
of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that opinion, however,
provides an exception to this principle if the exchange involves
similar productive assets. This statement amends Opinion 29 to
eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar
productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for
exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial
substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if
the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change
significantly as a result of the exchange. We do not expect this
pronouncement to have a material impact on our financial
statements.

Note 4 — Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets:
SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets,” addresses financial accounting and reporting for
intangible assets acquired individually or with a group of other
assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) at
acquisition. This statement also addresses financial accounting
and reporting for goodwill and other intangible assets
subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS No. 142, among
other things, specifies that goodwill and certain intangible
assets with indefinite lives should no longer be amortized, but
instead be subject to periodic impairment testing.
We elected to conduct our annual goodwill impairment test as of
the first day of each fourth fiscal quarter (October 1). For
2005, we identified four reporting units for the purpose of the
annual impairment test. The reporting units consisted of the
Yorktown Refinery Unit, Four Corners Refinery Unit, the Retail
Unit, and the Wholesale Unit. The fair value of each reporting
unit was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on
assumptions applicable to each reporting unit. The fair value of
the reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts,
including goodwill. As a result, the goodwill of each reporting
unit was considered not impaired.
In addition to the annual goodwill impairment test, if events
and circumstances indicate that goodwill of a reporting unit
might be impaired, then goodwill also will be tested for
impairment when the impairment indicator arises.

Certain of our retail units classified as held for sale or held
and used are tested for impairment when circumstances change. No
impairments were recorded in 2005 as a result of these tests. In
2004, offers were received for certain retail units, while
others continued to be marketed for sale, and these units were
tested for impairment. This resulted in a goodwill impairment
write-down for one unit of $11,000. Also, goodwill of $38,000
relating to retail units sold was written off and is included in
the net gain on the disposal of these units reported as a part
of discontinued operations. See Note 5 for additional
information on discontinued operations.
Liquor licenses, which are our only indefinite life intangible
assets, were evaluated for impairment as required by
SFAS No. 142. We believe that there are no legal,
regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors
limiting the useful life of our liquor licenses. If events and
circumstances indicate that our liquor licenses might not be
recoverable, then an impairment loss would be recognized if the
carrying amount of the liquor licenses exceeds their fair value.
Intangible assets with finite lives will continue to be
amortized over their respective useful lives and will be tested
for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144,
“Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets.”

respectively. In 2004, certain retail properties and a vacant
land-industrial site were reclassified to inventory and
property, plant and equipment because we were unable to dispose
of these properties within twelve months. We do not have assets
held for sale at December 31, 2005 and December 31,
2004.
We received proceeds of $149,000, $9,977,000 and $9,653,000 in
2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, from the sale of our assets
held for sale and retail units that were classified as

Note 7 — Asset Retirement Obligations:
SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations”, addresses financial accounting and reporting
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible
long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.
This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for
an Asset Retirement Obligation (“ARO”) be recognized
in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate
of fair value can be made. The associated Asset Retirement Cost
(“ARC”) is capitalized as part of the carrying amount
of the long-lived asset.
To initially recognize our ARO liability, we capitalized the
fair value of all ARO’s that we identified, calculated as
of the date the liability would have been recognized were
SFAS No. 143 in effect at that time. In accordance
with SFAS No. 143, we also recognized the cumulative
accretion and accumulated depreciation from the date the
liability would have been recognized had the provisions of
SFAS No. 143 been in effect, to January 1, 2003,
the date we adopted SFAS No. 143. As a result, on
January 1, 2003, we recorded an ARO liability of
$2,198,000, ARC assets of $1,580,000 and related accumulated
depreciation of $674,000. We also reversed a previously recorded
asset retirement obligation of $120,000, and recorded a
cumulative effect adjustment of $1,172,000 ($704,000 net of
taxes). At December 31, 2005, our legally restricted assets
that are set aside for purposes of settling ARO liabilities are
approximately $358,000. These assets are set aside to fund costs
associated with the closure of certain solid waste management
facilities.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation 47,
“Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement
Obligations” (FIN 47). This interpretation clarifies
the term conditional asset retirement obligation as used in
SFAS No. 143. Conditional asset retirement obligation
refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement
activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are
conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the
control of the entity. Accordingly, an entity is required to
recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset
retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be
reasonably estimated. Clarity is also provided regarding when an
entity would have sufficient information to reasonably
73
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation.
FIN 47 is to be applied no later than the end of fiscal
years ending after December 15, 2005. In conjunction with
FIN 47, we reviewed our operations in the fourth quarter of
2005 and recorded an ARO liability of $147,000, ARC assets of
$64,000 and related accumulated depreciation of $30,000. We also
recorded a cumulative adjustment of $114,000 ($68,000 net
of tax).
We identified the following ARO’s:
|
|
| |
1. Landfills — pursuant to Virginia law, the two
solid waste management facilities at our Yorktown refinery must
satisfy closure and post-closure care and financial
responsibility requirements. |
| |
| |
2. Crude Pipelines — our
right-of-way agreements
generally require that pipeline properties be returned to their
original condition when the agreements are no longer in effect.
This means that the pipeline surface facilities must be
dismantled and removed and certain site reclamation performed.
We do not believe these
right-of-way agreements
will require us to remove the underground pipe upon taking the
pipeline permanently out of service. Regulatory requirements,
however, may mandate that such
out-of-service
underground pipe be purged. |
| |
| |
3. Storage Tanks — we have a legal obligation
under applicable law to remove or close in place certain
underground and aboveground storage tanks, both on owned
property and leased property, once they are taken out of
service. Under some lease arrangements, we also have committed
to restore the leased property to its original condition. |
We identified the following conditional ARO:
|
|
| |
1. Refinery Piping and Heaters — we have a legal
obligation to properly remove or dispose of materials that
contain asbestos which surround certain refinery piping and
heaters. |
The following table reconciles the beginning and ending
aggregate carrying amount of our ARO’s for the years ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004.

GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
In March 2005, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our common
stock and received approximately $22,349,000, net of expenses.
On May 5, 2005, we used $21,888,000 of these proceeds to
redeem approximately $18,828,000 of our outstanding
11% senior subordinated notes. The amount paid to redeem
the notes included interest of $978,000 to the date of
redemption and redemption costs of $2,082,000. In conjunction
with this transaction, we also wrote off $563,000 of deferred
financing costs and $446,000 of unamortized original issue
discount.
Repayment of both the 11% and 8% senior subordinated notes
(collectively, the “Notes”) is jointly and severally
guaranteed on an unconditional basis by our subsidiaries,
subject to a limitation designed to ensure that such guarantees
do not constitute a fraudulent conveyance. Except as otherwise
specified in the indentures pursuant to which the Notes were
issued, there are no restrictions on the ability of our
subsidiaries to transfer funds to us in the form of cash
dividends, loans or advances. General provisions of applicable
state law, however, may limit the ability of any subsidiary to
pay dividends or make distributions to us in certain
circumstances.
The indentures governing the notes contain restrictive covenants
that, among other things, restrict our ability to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
create liens; |
| |
| |
• |
incur or guarantee debt; |
| |
| |
• |
pay dividends; |
| |
| |
• |
repurchase shares of our common stock; |
| |
| |
• |
sell certain assets or subsidiary stock; |
| |
| |
• |
engage in certain mergers; |
| |
| |
• |
engage in certain transactions with affiliates; or |
| |
| |
• |
alter our current line of business. |
In addition, subject to certain conditions, we are obligated to
offer to repurchase a portion of the notes at a price equal to
100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, with the net cash
proceeds of certain sales or other dispositions of assets. Upon
a change of control, we would be required to offer to repurchase
all of the notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued interest, if any, to the date of purchase. At
December 31, 2005, retained earnings available for
dividends under the most restrictive terms of the indentures
were approximately $78,452,000.
On June 27, 2005, we amended and restated our revolving
credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit
Facility is a $175,000,000 revolving credit facility and is for,
among other things, working capital, acquisitions, and other
general corporate purposes.
Under the new Credit Facility, our existing borrowing costs are
reduced, certain of the covenants have been eased, and the term
was extended to 2010. The availability of funds under this
facility is the lesser of (i) $175,000,000, or
(ii) the amount determined under a borrowing base
calculation tied to eligible accounts receivables and inventory.
We also have options to increase the size of the facility to up
to $250,000,000. At December 31, 2005, the availability of
funds under the Credit Facility was $108,229,000, net of
$66,771,000 of irrevocable letters of credit outstanding.
The interest rate applicable to the Credit Facility is based on
various short-term indices. At December 31, 2005, this rate
was approximately 5.76% per annum. We are required to pay a
quarterly commitment fee of 0.25% per annum of the unused
amount of the facility.
75
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
At December 31, 2005, there were no direct borrowings
outstanding under the Credit Facility. At December 31,
2005, there were, however, $66,771,000 of irrevocable letters of
credit outstanding, primarily to crude oil suppliers, insurance
companies, and regulatory agencies. At December 31, 2004,
there were no direct borrowings and $12,068,000 of irrevocable
letters of credit outstanding primarily to crude oil suppliers,
The obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by each
of our principal subsidiaries and secured by a security interest
in our personal property, including:
|
|
|
| |
• |
accounts receivable; |
| |
| |
• |
inventory; |
| |
| |
• |

| |
| |
• |
license rights; |
| |
| |
• |
deposits; and |
| |
| |
• |
investment accounts and general intangibles. |
The Credit Facility contains negative covenants limiting, among
other things, our ability to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
incur additional indebtedness; |
| |
| |
• |
create liens; |
| |
| |
• |
dispose of assets; |
| |
| |
• |
consolidate or merge; |
| |
| |
• |
make loans and investments; |
| |
| |
• |
enter into transactions with affiliates; |
| |
| |
• |
use loan proceeds for certain purposes; |
| |
| |
• |
guarantee obligations and incur contingent obligations; |
| |
| |
• |
enter into agreements restricting the ability of subsidiaries to
pay dividends to us; |
| |
| |
• |
make distributions or stock repurchases; |
| |
| |
• |
make significant changes in accounting practices or change our
fiscal year; and |
| |
| |
• |
prepay or modify subordinated indebtedness. |
The Credit Facility also requires us to meet certain financial
covenants, including maintaining a minimum consolidated net
worth, a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio, and a
maximum consolidated funded indebtedness to total capitalization
percentage, each as defined in the Credit Facility.
Our failure to satisfy any of the covenants in the Credit
Facility is an event of default under the Credit Facility. The
Credit Facility also includes other customary events of default,
including, among other things, a cross-default to our other
material indebtedness and certain changes of control.

GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Separate financial statements of our subsidiaries are not
included herein because the aggregate assets, liabilities,
earnings, and equity of the subsidiaries are substantially
equivalent to our assets, liabilities, earnings, and equity on a
consolidated basis; the subsidiaries are jointly and severally
liable for the repayment of the Notes; and the separate
financial statements and other disclosures concerning the
subsidiaries are not deemed by us to be material to investors.
Note 9 — Financial Instruments and Hedging
Activity:
The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of
financial instruments is made in accordance with the
requirements of SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about
Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. Using available
market information and the valuation methodologies described
below, we determined the estimated fair value amounts.
Considerable judgment is required, however, in interpreting
market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly,
the estimates presented herein may not be indicative of the
amounts that we could realize in a current market exchange. The
use of different market assumptions or valuation methodologies
may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial
instruments are as follows:

We determined the fair value of fixed rate long-term debt by
using quoted market prices, where applicable, or by discounting
future cash flows using rates estimated to be currently
available for debt of similar terms and remaining maturities.
We believe the carrying values of our cash and cash equivalents,
receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate
fair values due to the short-term maturities of these
instruments.
We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in
commodity prices and interest rates. To manage the volatility
relating to these normal business exposures, from time to time,
we use commodity futures and options contracts to reduce price
volatility, to fix margins in our refining and marketing
operations, and to protect against price declines associated
with our crude oil and finished products inventories.
In 2003, we entered into various crude oil futures contracts in
order to economically hedge crude oil inventories and crude oil
purchases for the Yorktown refinery operations. For the year
ended December 31, 2003, we recognized a loss on these
contracts of approximately $1,594,000 in cost of products sold.
These transactions did not qualify for hedge accounting in
accordance with SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended,
and accordingly were marked to market each month.
At December 31, 2005 and 2004, we had no open crude oil
futures contracts or other commodity derivatives.
Note 10 — Stock Incentive Plans:
Under our 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1998 Plan”),
shares of our common stock are authorized to be issued to
deserving employees in connection with awards of options,
appreciation rights, restricted shares,
77
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
performance shares or performance units, all as defined in the
1998 Plan. Appreciation rights, performance shares and
performance units may be settled in cash, our common shares or
any combination thereof.
The total number of shares available for grant under the 1998
Plan is 2% of the total number of common shares outstanding as
of the first day of each calendar year, which amount was
292,282 shares for 2006, 246,673 shares for 2005,
175,711 shares for 2004, and 171,435 shares for 2003.
Grants also are subject to a 400,000 share annual
limitation on the number of common shares available for the
grant of options that are intended to qualify as “incentive
stock options” under Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code. Common shares available for grant in any
particular calendar year that are not, in fact, granted in such
year cannot be added to the common shares available for grant in
any subsequent calendar year.
On December 6, 2005, 41,000 shares of restricted stock
were granted to 39 employees. These awards vest ratably over a
five year period. In accordance with APB 25,
“Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, we
recorded unearned compensation in stockholders’ equity on
the balance sheet. This balance was computed using an assumed
forfeiture rate of one employee per year, and is amortized using
the straight-line method over the vesting period. In 2005, the
amount amortized to expense was $30,000.
On May 9, 2003, 140,500 incentive stock options were
granted to 15 employees under the 1998 Plan. The exercise price
for all of the options was $5.24, which was the closing price of
our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of
grant. One-half of each grant vested on May 9, 2004 and the
remaining one-half vested on May 9, 2005. All of the
options expire on May 8, 2013.
The 1998 Plan provides that all grants are subject to
restrictions, conditions and terms more specifically described
in the 1998 Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise
price for stock options and appreciation rights and time vesting
requirements for all awards. In general, the 1998 Plan provides
that grants of stock options and appreciation rights must expire
no more than 10 years from the date of grant. In addition,
all grants under the 1998 Plan are subject to forfeiture under
certain circumstances, and all unvested awards may vest
immediately under various circumstances defined in the 1998 Plan.
Under our 1989 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1989 Plan”),
500,000 shares of our common stock were authorized to be
issued to deserving employees in the form of options and/or
restricted stock. At December 31, 2005, no shares were
available for future grants under the 1989 Plan because, by its
terms, no new awards may be made after December 11, 1999.
All of the remaining options or restricted stock granted under
the 1989 Plan expired in 2003.

In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123,
“Accounting for Stock Based Compensation.” At that
time, we determined that we would not change to the fair value
method and would continue to use the intrinsic value method to
account for stock-based employee compensation. In December 2002,
FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and
Disclosure,” an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.
SFAS 148 amended SFAS 123 to permit alternative
methods of transition for adopting a fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation. We have
adopted only the disclosure provisions of
SFAS No. 148. In December 2004, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” that
revised SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation”. This revision requires us to measure the
cost of employee services received in exchange for stock options
granted using the fair value method for reporting periods that
begin after December 31, 2005.

Note 11 — Interest, Operating Leases and Rent
Expense:
We paid interest of $27,278,000, $35,285,000, and $38,645,000 in
2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. In accordance with
SFAS 34 “Capitalization of Interest Cost”, we
capitalized approximately $3,261,000 and $161,000 of interest as
part of construction in progress in 2005 and 2004, respectively.
In connection with the sale of approximately
8.5-acres of land in
North Scottsdale, Arizona that included our corporate
headquarters building, we entered into a ten-year agreement to
lease back our corporate headquarters building in 2003.
We are committed to annual minimum rentals under noncancelable
operating leases that have initial or remaining lease terms in
excess of one year as of December 31, 2005 as follows:

$6,760,000 for 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.
Our operating leases are for buildings, warehouses, cardlocks
and facilities, and can contain one of the following options:
(a) we can, after the initial lease term, purchase the
property at the then fair value of the property or (b) we
can, at the end of the initial lease term, renew its lease at
the then fair rental value for periods of 5 to 15 years.
These options enable the Company to retain use of facilities in
desirable operating areas. Certain of our leases contain
escalation clauses that are accounted for on a straight-line
basis.

401(k) and Deferred Compensation Plans: |
The Company sponsors the Giant Industries, Inc. and Affiliated
Companies 401(k) Plan (the “Giant 401(k)”) for the
benefit of our employees. In connection with the acquisition of
the Yorktown refinery, on May 14, 2002, we adopted the
Giant Yorktown 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (“Yorktown
401(k)”) for our Yorktown employees who met plan
eligibility requirements. For purposes of eligibility and
vesting, anyone who was employed by the Yorktown refinery on or
before December 31, 2002, received credit for time worked
80
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
for the refinery’s previous owners and certain other prior
employers. In March 2004, the assets in the Yorktown 401(k) were
transferred into the Giant 401(k) and the plans were combined
into the Giant 401(k) for administrative convenience and to
reduce costs. The benefits available to Yorktown and
non-Yorktown employees did not materially change as a result of
this combination.
Subject to approval from our board of directors each year, we
match the Yorktown employee’s contributions to the Giant
401(k), subject to certain limitations and a per participant
maximum contribution amount. For the years ended
December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, we expensed $1,128,000,
$1,031,000 and $985,000, respectively, for matching
contributions to the Yorktown participants.
Subject to approval from our board of directors each year and
beginning in 2005, we also match the non-Yorktown
employee’s contributions to the Giant 401(k), subject to
certain limitations and a per participant maximum contribution
amount. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and
2003, we expensed $2,848,000, $1,675,000, and $1,231,000,
respectively, for matching contributions to the non-Yorktown
participants.
Our matching contribution can be invested in available
investment choices at the discretion of the participant.
Supplemental contributions to the Giant 401(k) on behalf of
non-Yorktown employees are made at the discretion of our board
of directors. For the year ended December 31, 2005, our
board of directors changed the supplemental contribution from a
discretionary contribution in an amount to be determined each
year to a fixed contribution equal to 3% of eligible wages.
Yorktown employees currently do not receive this supplemental
contribution. The amount accrued for the 2005 supplemental
contribution is $1,622,000. This discretionary contribution will
be funded with newly issued shares of our common stock in 2006.
For the year ended December 31, 2004, we accrued $900,000
for a discretionary contribution to the Giant 401(k), which was
funded in 2005 with 34,196 newly issued shares of our common
stock. For the year ended December 31, 2003, we accrued
$900,000 for a discretionary contribution to the Giant 401(k),
which was funded in 2004 with 49,046 newly issued shares of our
common stock. All shares are allocated to eligible
employees’ accounts in the manner set forth in the Giant
401(k).
At December 31, 2005, the assets of the Giant 401(k)
include 620,365 shares of our common stock valued at
approximately $32,234,000 on December 31, 2005.
In July 2005, we acquired Dial Oil Co. (“Dial”) and
Dial employees immediately became eligible to participate in the
Giant 401(k). Dial employees were permitted to carry over their
prior years of service with Dial for eligibility and vesting
purposes. The 401(k) plan sponsored by Dial was terminated prior
to the acquisition. Giant is responsible for administration of
the terminated Dial 401(k) plan until IRS approves the
termination and the assets are distributed to the participants.
On October 31, 2005, we adopted a deferred compensation
plan. The plan is an unfunded retirement restoration plan that
provides for additional payments from us so that total
retirement benefits for certain executives will be maintained at
the levels provided in the 401(k) plan before the application of
Internal Revenue Code limitations. Directors are also eligible
for the plan. We expensed $264,000 in 2005 in connection with
this plan. At December 31, 2005, the accrued liability was
$621,000 and is recorded in “Other liabilities and deferred
income” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
|
|
| Note 13 — |
Pension and Post-Retirement Benefits: |
In connection with the acquisition of the Yorktown refinery, in
2002, we established the Giant Yorktown Cash Balance Plan
(“CB Plan”). The CB Plan is a defined benefit plan for
our Yorktown employees. The CB Plan is a “cash
balance” retirement plan fully funded by us without
employee contributions. All Yorktown employees meeting the
eligibility requirements are automatically included in the CB
Plan. Under the CB Plan,
81
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
an account is established for each eligible employee that in
general reflects pay credits, based on a percentage of eligible
pay determined by age or years of service, whichever yields the
greater percentage, plus regular interest credits. Interest
credits are generally equal to the greater of 5% or the
12-month average of the
one-year U.S. Treasury constant maturity rates plus 1%.
Yorktown employees who were covered by the BP retirement plan on
July 1, 2000, are generally eligible for a grandfather
provision that affects the calculation of the benefit under the
plan.
We have established an investment strategy for the CB Plan that
targets allocation percentages among various asset classes. This
investment strategy is designed to reach long-term return goals,
while mitigating against downside risk and considering expected
cash flows. The current weighted average target for asset
allocation is:
|
|
|
| |
• |
equity securities: 50-70%; and |
| |
| |
• |
debt securities: 30-50% |
Our investment strategy is reviewed from time to time to ensure
consistency with our objectives. Equity securities do not
include any of our common stock.
We must make a lump-sum payment to the CB Plan each year. The
amount of our annual payment is based on various factors,
including actuarial calculations linked to the potential
retirement ages of Yorktown employees. Our payment to the CB
Plan for the plan year ending December 31, 2004 was
$2,039,000 and was made in September 2005. We expect to
contribute approximately $3,375,000 to the CB Plan in 2006.
In connection with the acquisition of the Yorktown refinery, in
2002, we established the Giant Yorktown Retiree Medical Plan
(the “RM Plan”), which is a post-retirement benefit
plan for Yorktown employees. The RM Plan will pay a percentage
of the medical premium for coverage under the plan. Coverage is
generally available to full-time employees who are age 50
or older with 10 or more years of service. We will pay from 50%
to 80% of the premium cost, depending on age and years of
service. Unlike the CB Plan, we are not required to fund the RM
Plan annually, and currently we do not plan to do so.

and RM Plan for 2005 and 2004:

Salary increases are assumed to increase at a rate of 3.7% for
determining benefit obligations at December 31, 2005 and 4%
for determining net periodic benefit cost for 2005. An
additional 5% increase is added to the ultimate rate for those
with less than one year of service grading down to 0% once a
participant has five years of service. |
We based our expected long-term rate of return on a review of
the anticipated long-term performance of individual asset
classes and consideration of the appropriate asset allocation
strategy, given the anticipated requirements of the CB Plan, to
determine the average rate of earnings expected on the funds
invested to provide benefits. Although we consider recent fund
performance and historical returns, the assumption is

primarily a long-term, prospective rate. We expect the long-term
return assumption for the CB Plan will remain at 8.5% per
year.
On December 8, 2003, the President signed the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003
(The “Act”). The Act provides a federal subsidy to
employers whose prescription drug benefits are actuarially
equivalent to certain benefits provided by Medicare. We have not
reflected any expected subsidy in these financial statements and
accompanying notes because we are unable to determine whether
the benefits provided by our medical plan are actuarially
equivalent to the relevant Medicare benefits.

At December 31, 2005, we had an alternative minimum tax
credit carryforward of $5,960,000 and a state tax credit
carryover of $53,000. General business credit carryforwards were
fully utilized in 2005. Our alternative minimum tax credits can
be carried forward indefinitely to offset future regular tax
liabilities.
Federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryovers were
fully utilized in 2005. However, there remains $162,000 of state
net operating loss carryforwards that begin to expire in the
year 2022.
As a result of the Dial Oil acquisition, we recorded a net
deferred tax liability offset by goodwill of approximately
$3,692,000 related to purchase accounting.
In accordance with SFAS 109, deferred tax assets should be
reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not
that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. In making the determination of whether or not a
valuation allowance was required, we considered all available
positive and negative evidence and made certain assumptions. We
considered the overall business environment, historical
earnings, and the outlook for future years. We performed this
analysis as of December 31, 2005 and determined that there
was sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more
likely than not that our net deferred tax assets will be
realized. We will assess the need for a deferred tax asset
valuation allowance on an ongoing basis.

At December 31, 2005 and 2004, there were 14,614,097 and
12,333,651 shares, respectively, of our common stock
outstanding.
In 2006, we will contribute newly issued shares of our common
stock to fund our 401(k) plan discretionary contribution for the
year ended December 31, 2005. We have not yet determined
the number of shares to contribute. In April 2005, we
contributed 34,196 newly issued shares of our common stock to
fund our 401(k) plan discretionary contribution for the year
ended December 31, 2004.
As discussed in Note 8, we issued 1,000,000 shares in
the first quarter of 2005 to redeem a portion of our outstanding
debt. We also issued 1,000,000 shares in September 2005.
The proceeds from these shares are being used for general
corporate purposes, including to test and take other actions
required to place our newly acquired crude oil pipeline in
service, and may be used for possible future acquisitions.

GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
On December 6, 2005, we awarded 41,000 restricted shares to
39 employees. See Note 10 for further information.
There were no transactions subsequent to December 31, 2005,
except as noted above, that if the transactions had occurred
before December 31, 2005, would materially change the
number of common shares or potential common shares outstanding
as of December 31, 2005.
Note 16 — Business Segments:
We are organized into three operating segments based on
manufacturing and marketing criteria. These segments are the
refining group, the retail group, and the wholesale group. A
description of each segment and its principal products follows:
Our refining group operates our Ciniza and Bloomfield refineries
in the Four Corners area of New Mexico and the Yorktown refinery
in Virginia. It also operates a crude oil gathering pipeline
system in New Mexico, two finished products distribution
terminals, and a fleet of crude oil and finished product trucks.
Our three refineries make various grades of gasoline, diesel
fuel, and other products from crude oil, other feedstocks, and
blending components. We also acquire finished products through
exchange agreements and from various suppliers. We sell these
products through our service stations, independent wholesalers
and retailers, commercial accounts, and sales and exchanges with
major oil companies. We purchase crude oil, other feedstocks and
blending components from various suppliers.
Our retail group operates service stations, which include
convenience stores or kiosks. We also operated a travel center
in New Mexico until June 19, 2003, when the travel center
was sold. Our service stations sell various grades of gasoline,
diesel fuel, general merchandise, including tobacco and
alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages, and food products to the
general public. Our refining group or our wholesale group
supplies the gasoline and diesel fuel our retail group sells. We
purchase general merchandise and food products from various
suppliers. At December 31, 2005, our retail group operated
123 service stations with convenience stores or kiosks.
Our wholesale group consists of Phoenix Fuel and Dial Oil (See
Note 19 for further information). Our wholesale group
primarily distributes commercial wholesale petroleum products.
Our wholesale group includes several lubricant and bulk
petroleum distribution plants, cardlock fueling locations, an
unmanned fleet fueling operation, a bulk lubricant terminal
facility, a fleet of finished product and lubricant delivery
trucks, and 12 service stations acquired in the Dial Oil
acquisition. We purchase petroleum fuels and lubricants from
suppliers and from our refining group.

GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Our operations that are not included in any of the three
segments are included in the category “Other.” These
operations consist primarily of corporate staff operations.
Operating income for each segment consists of net revenues less
cost of products sold, operating expenses, depreciation and
amortization, and the segment’s SG&A expenses. Cost of
products sold reflects current costs adjusted, where
appropriate, for LIFO and lower of cost or market inventory
adjustments.
The total assets of each segment consist primarily of net
property, plant and equipment, inventories, accounts receivable
and other assets directly associated with the segment’s
operations. Included in the total assets of the corporate staff
operations are a majority of our cash and cash equivalents, and
various accounts receivable, net property, plant and equipment,
and other long-term assets.
Disclosures regarding our reportable segments with
reconciliations to consolidated totals are presented below.

GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Note 17 — Commitments and Contingencies:
We have various legal actions, claims, assessments and other
contingencies arising in the normal course of our business,
including those matters described below, pending against us.
Some of these matters involve or may involve significant claims
for compensatory, punitive, or other damages. These matters are
subject to many uncertainties, and it is possible that some of
these matters could be ultimately decided, resolved or settled
adversely. As explained more fully below, we have recorded
accruals for losses related to those matters that we consider to
be probable and that can be reasonably estimated. We currently
believe that any amounts exceeding our recorded accruals should
not materially affect our financial condition or liquidity. It
is possible, however, that the ultimate resolution of these
matters could result in a material adverse effect on our results
of operations.
Federal, state and local laws relating to the environment,
health and safety affect nearly all of our operations. As is the
case with all companies engaged in similar industries, we face
significant exposure from actual or potential claims and
lawsuits involving environmental, health and safety matters.
These matters include soil and water contamination, air
pollution and personal injuries or property damage allegedly
caused by substances made, handled, used, released or disposed
of by us or by our predecessors.
Future expenditures related to environmental, health and safety
matters cannot be reasonably quantified in many circumstances
for various reasons. These reasons include the uncertain nature
of remediation and cleanup cost estimates and methods, imprecise
and conflicting data regarding the hazardous nature of various
types of substances, the number of other potentially responsible
parties involved, defenses that may be available to us, and
changing environmental, health and safety laws, including
changing interpretations of these laws.
|
|
|
Environmental and Litigation Accruals |
We expense or capitalize environmental expenditures depending on
the circumstances.
|
|
|
| |
• |
Expenditures that relate to an existing environmental condition
caused by past operations, and which do not result in an asset
with an economic life greater than one year, are expensed. |
| |
| |
• |
Expenditures that relate to an existing environmental condition
caused by past operations, and which result in an asset with an
economic life greater than one year, are capitalized in the
period incurred and depreciated over their useful life. |
In those circumstances where environmental expenditures, or
losses associated with litigation, are anticipated or related to
past events, we accrue for the liability if clean up
expenditures, administrative penalties, adverse judgments, or
other liabilities are probable and the costs can be reasonably
estimated.
We do not accrue for future expenditures associated with:
|
|
|
| |
• |
our compliance with clean air, clean water, and similar
regulatory programs, including programs relating to the
composition of motor fuels, that do not require us to undertake
soil removal or similar clean up activities; |
| |
| |
• |
our compliance with settlements, consent decrees, and other
agreements with governmental authorities that do not require us
to undertake soil removal or similar cleanup activities; |
| |
| |
• |
groundwater monitoring; or |
| |
| |
• |
capital projects. |
Expenditures for these matters are capitalized or expensed when
incurred.

GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
We do not discount our environmental and litigation liabilities,
and record these liabilities without consideration of potential
recoveries from third parties, except that we do take into
account amounts that others are contractually obligated to pay
us. Subsequent adjustments to estimates, which may be
significant, may be made as more information becomes available
or as circumstances change.
As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, we had environmental
liability accruals of approximately $4,941,000 and $6,156,000,
respectively, which are summarized below, and litigation
accruals in the aggregate of approximately $990,000 and
$525,000, respectively. Environmental accruals are recorded in
the current and long-term sections of our Consolidated Balance
Sheets. Litigation accruals are recorded in the current section
of our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Approximately $4,427,000 of the December 31, 2005 accrual
is for the following projects discussed below:
|
|
|
| |
• |
$3,540,000 and $229,000, respectively, for environmental
obligations assumed in connection with our acquisitions of the
Yorktown refinery and the Bloomfield refinery; |
| |
| |
• |
$570,000 for the remediation of the hydrocarbon plume that
appears to extend no more than 1,800 feet south of our
inactive Farmington refinery; |
| |
| |
• |
$46,000 for remediation in the river terrace area of the
Bloomfield refinery; and |
| |
| |
• |
$42,000 for remediation of hydrocarbon contamination on and
adjacent to the 5.5 acres that we own in Bloomfield, New
Mexico. |
The remaining $514,000 of the accrual relates to:
|
|
|
| |
• |
the closure of certain solid waste management units at the
Ciniza refinery; |
| |
| |
• |
closure of the Ciniza refinery land treatment facility including
post-closure expenses; and |
| |
| |
• |
amounts for smaller remediation projects. |
|
|
|
Yorktown Environmental Liabilities |
We assumed certain liabilities and obligations in connection
with our purchase of the Yorktown refinery from BP Corporation
North America Inc. and BP Products North America Inc.
(collectively “BP”). BP agreed to reimburse us in
specified amounts for some matters. Among other things, and
subject to certain exceptions, we assumed responsibility for all
costs, expenses, liabilities, and obligations under
environmental, health and safety laws caused by, arising from,
incurred in connection with or relating to the ownership of the
94
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
refinery or its operation. We agreed to reimburse BP for losses
incurred in connection with or related to liabilities and
obligations assumed by us. Certain environmental matters
relating to the Yorktown refinery are discussed below.
BP agreed to reimburse us for all losses that are caused by or
relate to property damage caused by, or any environmental
remediation required due to, a violation of environmental
health, and safety laws during BP’s operation of the
refinery. In order to have a claim against BP, however, the
total of all our losses must exceed $5,000,000, in which event
our claim only relates to the amount exceeding $5,000,000. After
$5,000,000 is reached, our claim is limited to 50% of the amount
by which our losses exceed $5,000,000 until the total of all our
losses exceeds $10,000,000. After $10,000,000 is reached, our
claim would be for 100% of the amount by which our losses exceed
$10,000,000. In applying these provisions, losses amounting to a
total of less than $250,000 arising out of the same event are
not added to any other losses for purposes of determining
whether and when the $5,000,000 or $10,000,000 has been reached.
After the $5,000,000 or $10,000,000 thresholds have been
reached, BP has no obligation to reimburse us for any losses
amounting to a total of less than $250,000 arising out of the
same event. Except as specified in the refinery purchase
agreement, in order to seek reimbursement from BP, we were
required to notify BP of a claim within two years following the
closing date. Further, BP’s total liability for
reimbursement under the refinery purchase agreement, including
liability for environmental claims, is limited to $35,000,000.
In connection with the Yorktown acquisition, we assumed
BP’s obligations under an administrative order issued in
1991 by EPA under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
The order requires an investigation of certain areas of the
refinery and the development of measures to correct any releases
of contaminants or hazardous substances found in these areas. A
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Facility Investigation
was conducted and approved conditionally by EPA in 2002.
Following the investigation, a Risk Assessment/ Corrective
Measures Study (“RA/ CMS”) was finalized in 2003,
which summarized the remediation measured agreed upon by us,
EPA, and the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality
(“VDEQ”). The RA/ CMS proposes investigation,
sampling, monitoring, and cleanup measures, including the
construction of an
on-site corrective
action management unit that would be used to consolidate
hazardous solid materials associated with these measures. These
proposed actions relate to soil, sludge, and remediation wastes
relating to solid waste management units. Groundwater in the
aquifers underlying the refinery, and surface water and sediment
in a small pond and tidal salt marsh on the refinery property
also are addressed in the RA/ CMS.
Based on the RA/ CMS, EPA issued a proposed cleanup plan for
public comment in December 2003 setting forth preferred
corrective measures for remediating soil, groundwater, sediment,
and surface water contamination at the refinery. Following the
public comment period, EPA issued its final remedy decision and
response to comments in April 2004. EPA currently is developing
the administrative consent order pursuant to which we will
implement our cleanup plan.
Our most current estimate of expenditures associated with the
order is between $25,000,000 ($17,500,000 of which we believe is
subject to reimbursement by BP) and $27,000,000 ($19,500,000 of
which we believe is subject to reimbursement by BP). We
anticipate that these expenditures will be incurred over a
period of approximately 35 years after EPA approves our
cleanup plan. We believe that between approximately $9,600,000
and $10,600,000 of this amount will be incurred over an initial
four-year period, and additional expenditures of approximately
$7,600,000 will be incurred over the following four-year period,
with the remainder thereafter. We currently have $3,540,000
recorded as an environmental liability for this project, which
reflects our belief that BP is responsible for reimbursing us
for expenditures on this project that exceed this amount.
95
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
As part of the clean-up
plan, the facility’s underground sewer system will be
cleaned, inspected and repaired as needed. A portion of this
sewer work is scheduled to begin during the construction of the
corrective action management unit and related remediation work
and is included in our associated cost estimate. We anticipate
that construction of the corrective action, management unit and
related remediation work will be completed approximately seven
to eight years after EPA approves our
clean-up plan and
authorizes its implementation. We have preliminarily estimated
that the balance of the sewer work will cost between
approximately $1,500,000 and $3,500,000 over a period of three
to five years, beginning around the time the construction of the
corrective action management unit and related remediation work
is nearing completion. We do not know whether any clean up will
be required in connection with this capital project and,
accordingly have not recorded a liability for this matter.
|
|
|
Bloomfield Refinery Environmental Obligations |
In connection with the acquisition of the Bloomfield refinery,
we assumed certain environmental obligations including the
seller’s obligations under an administrative order issued
by EPA in 1992 pursuant to the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act. The order required the seller to investigate and
propose measures for correcting any releases of hazardous waste
or hazardous constituents at or from the Bloomfield refinery.
EPA has delegated its oversight authority over the order to
NMED’s Hazardous Waste Bureau (“HWB”). In
December 2002, HWB and OCD approved a cleanup plan for the
refinery, subject to various actions to be taken by us to
implement the plan. We estimate that remaining remediation
expenses associated with the cleanup plan will be approximately
$229,000, and that these expenses will be incurred through
approximately 2018. As of December 31, 2005, we had
$229,000 recorded as an environmental liability for this project.
|
|
|
Farmington Refinery Matters |
In 1973, we constructed the Farmington refinery that we operated
until 1982. In 1985, we became aware of soil and shallow
groundwater contamination at this property. Our environmental
consulting firms identified several areas of contamination in
the soils and shallow groundwater underlying the Farmington
property. One of our consultants indicated that contamination
attributable to past operations at the Farmington property has
migrated off the refinery property, including a hydrocarbon
plume that appears to extend no more than 1,800 feet south
of the refinery property. Our remediation activities are ongoing
under the supervision of the New Mexico Oil Conservation
Division (“OCD”), although OCD has not issued a
cleanup order. As of December 31, 2005, we had $570,000
recorded as an environmental liability for this project.
|
|
|
Bloomfield Refinery — West Outfall and River
Terrace |
In August 2004, hydrocarbon discharges were discovered seeping
into two small gullies, or draws, in an area of the Bloomfield
refinery site known as the west outfall. We took immediate
containment and other corrective actions, including removal of
contaminated soils, construction of lined collection sumps, and
further investigation and monitoring. To further remediate these
discharges and prevent additional migration of contamination, we
completed construction of an underground barrier with a
pollutant extraction and collection system in the second quarter
of 2005 at a cost of approximately $790,000.
In connection with the underground barrier at the west outfall,
OCD required more investigation of elevated hydrocarbon levels
in an area of the Bloomfield refinery site known as the river
terrace. With the approval of OCD, we installed sheet piling in
this area in 1999 to block migration of groundwater
contaminants. Monitoring wells were also installed, with annual
sampling results submitted to OCD. In August 2005, OCD approved
a bioventing plan to reduce hydrocarbon levels in this area.
Bioventing involves pumping air into the soil to stimulate
bacterial activity, which in turn consumes hydrocarbons.
Construction of the bioventing system was completed in January
2006. We expended approximately $213,000 on this project
96
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
through the end of 2005. As of December 31, 2005 we had
$46,000 recorded as an environmental liability for this project.
|
|
|
Bloomfield Tank Farm (Old Terminal) |
We have discovered hydrocarbon contamination adjacent to a
55,000 barrel crude oil storage tank that was located in
Bloomfield, New Mexico. We believe that all or a portion of the
tank and the 5.5 acres we own on which the tank was located
may have been a part of a refinery, owned by various other
parties, that, to our knowledge, ceased operations in the early
1960s. We received approval to conduct a pilot bioventing
project to address remaining contamination at the site, which
was completed in 2001. Bioventing involves pumping air into the
soil to stimulate bacterial activity which in turn consumes
hydrocarbons. Based on the results of the pilot project, we
submitted a remediation plan to OCD proposing the use of
bioventing to address the remaining contamination. This
remediation plan was approved by OCD in 2002. We anticipate that
we will incur about $20,000 in expenditures from 2006 through
2007 to continue remediation, including groundwater monitoring
and testing, until natural attenuation has completed the process
of groundwater remediation. We had $42,000 recorded as an
environmental liability for this project at December 31,
2005.
In addition to the obligations discussed above, in connection
with the acquisition of the Yorktown refinery, we also assumed
BP’s Yorktown refinery responsibilities under a consent
decree among various parties covering many locations (the
“Consent Decree”). Parties to the Consent Decree
include the United States, BP Exploration and Oil Co., Amoco Oil
Company, and Atlantic Richfield Company. As applicable to the
Yorktown refinery, the Consent Decree requires, among other
things, reduction of nitrous oxides, sulfur dioxide, and
particulate matter emissions and upgrades to the refinery’s
leak detection and repair program. We estimate that we will
incur capital expenditures of between $20,000,000 and
$27,000,000 to comply with the Consent Decree through 2006, and
have expended approximately $8,500,000 of this amount through
the end of 2005. We do not anticipated any significant increase
in current operating expenses when all equipment modifications
required by the Consent Decree are completed. Since our
expenditures for this matter do not involve soil removal or
similar cleanup activities, we have not recorded an
environmental liability for this project and will capitalize or
expense expenditures when incurred.
|
|
|
Bloomfield Refinery — OCD Compliance
Order |
On September 19, 2005, we received an Administrative
Compliance Order from OCD alleging that: (1) we had failed
to notify OCD of the west outfall discharges at our Bloomfield
refinery; (2) we had allowed contaminants to enter the
San Juan River from the refinery’s river terrace area;
and (3) we had failed to comply with certain conditions of
the refinery’s groundwater discharge permit. The Order
seeks a civil penalty of $120,000, and also specifies that we
apply for a discharge permit modification. We have already
applied for and received the permit modification, which requires
us to prepare a comprehensive action plan for the investigation
and remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater at the
refinery. Until this plan is completed and approved by the two
agencies with regulatory oversight (OCD and HWB), we cannot
reasonably estimate the cost of any associated cleanup
activities and, accordingly, have not accrued an environmental
liability for this matter. We are continuing settlement
discussions with OCD in connection with the order. As part of
any settlement, we may be required to make further modifications
to our discharge permit.

Four Corners Refineries — Settlement
Agreements |
In June 2002, we received a draft compliance order from the New
Mexico Environment Department (“NMED”) in connection
with alleged violations of air quality regulations at the Ciniza
refinery. These alleged violations relate to an inspection
completed in April 2001.
In August 2002, we received a compliance order from NMED in
connection with alleged violations of air quality regulations at
the Bloomfield refinery. These alleged violations relate to an
inspection completed in September 2001.
In the second quarter of 2003, the EPA informally told us that
it also intended to allege air quality violations in connection
with the 2001 inspections at both refineries. In July 2005, we
reached an administrative settlement with NMED and EPA in the
form of consent agreements.
The administrative settlement resolves all alleged violations
related to the 2001 inspections. In August 2005, we paid fines
of $100,000 to EPA and $150,000 to NMED. We also agreed to
undertake certain environmentally beneficial projects known as
supplemental environmental projects at a cost of up to $600,000.
In addition, the administrative settlement is similar to the
judicial consent decrees EPA has entered with other refiners as
part of its national refinery enforcement program and requires
that we do the following:
|
|
|
| |
• |
implement controls to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxide, sulfur
dioxide, and particulate matter from the largest emitting
process units; |
| |
| |
• |
upgrade leak detection and repair practices; |
| |
| |
• |
minimize the number and severity of flaring events; and |
| |
| |
• |
adopt strategies to ensure compliance with benzene waste
requirements. |
We currently believe that we can satisfy the requirements of the
settlement by making equipment modifications to our Four Corners
refineries, which we estimate could cost between approximately
$10,000,000 and $18,000,000, spread over a period of four to
seven years following the date of the settlement. We currently
anticipate that the majority of these costs will be incurred in
the latter portion of the four to seven year phase-in period. In
addition, we estimate that on-going annual operating costs
associated with these modifications could cost approximately
$4,000,000 per year. These amounts are the currently
estimated upper limits for both capital expenditures and annual
operating costs. Undertaking the upper limit for one type of
expenditure could result in our having to spend less than the
upper limit for the other. The costs associated with our
settlement also could be subject to reduction in the event of
the temporary, partial or permanent discontinuance of operations
at one or both facilities. Since our settlement does not require
us to undertake soil removal or similar cleanup activities, we
have not recorded an environmental liability for this matter.

Bloomfield Refinery — EPA Compliance
Order |
On October 12, 2005, we received an Administrative
Compliance Order from EPA in connection with a Bloomfield
refinery compliance evaluation inspection in 2000 and a
follow-up inspection in
early 2001. We send waste water from the refinery’s process
units through an oil-water separator, a series of multiple-lined
aeration ponds that continue the treatment and processing of
oily water, and a series of evaporation ponds, before the water
is injected into a permitted deep well. EPA alleges that benzene
levels in the aeration ponds exceed permissible RCRA levels. EPA
also alleges that we failed to make a RCRA hazardous waste
determination in connection with wastewater going into the
aeration ponds. The Order seeks a civil penalty of $890,000 in
connection with this matter, but EPA has indicated it would
consider settling for a lesser amount if we commit to
operational changes that would reduce benzene levels in the
aeration ponds. As part of any settlement, we may be required to
undertake one or more environmentally beneficial projects known
as supplemental environmental projects. We are continuing
settlement discussions with EPA. Since we do not

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
anticipate incurring any cleanup costs in connection with this
matter, we have not recorded an environmental liability for this
project.
Lawsuits have been filed in numerous states alleging that MTBE,
a blendstock used by many refiners in producing specially
formulated gasoline, has contaminated water supplies. MTBE
contamination primarily results from leaking underground or
aboveground storage tanks. The suits allege MTBE contamination
of water supplies owned and operated by the plaintiffs, who are
generally water providers or governmental entities. The
plaintiffs assert that numerous refiners, distributors, or
sellers of MTBE and/or gasoline containing MTBE are responsible
for the contamination. The plaintiffs also claim that the
defendants are jointly and severally liable for compensatory and
punitive damages, costs, and interest. Joint and several
liability means that each defendant may be liable for all of the
damages even though that party was responsible for only a small
part of the damages. We are a defendant in approximately 30 of
these MTBE lawsuits pending in Virginia, Connecticut,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, and
Pennsylvania. We intend to vigorously defend these lawsuits.
Since we have yet to determine if a liability is probable, and
we cannot reasonably estimate the amount of any loss associated
with this matter, we have not recorded a liability for these
lawsuits.
In February 2003, we filed a complaint against the United States
in the United States Court of Federal Claims related to military
jet fuel that we sold to the Defense Energy Support Center
(“DESC”) from 1983 through 1994. We asserted that the
federal government underpaid for the jet fuel by about
$17,000,000. We requested that we be made whole in connection
with payments that were less than the fair market value of the
fuel, that we be reimbursed for the value of transporting the
fuel in some contracts, and that we be reimbursed for certain
additional costs of complying with the government’s special
requirements. The U.S. has said that it may counterclaim
and assert, based on its interpretation of the contracts, that
we owe additional amounts of between $2,100,000 and $4,900,000.
In the first quarter of 2004, the United States Court of Appeals
for the Federal Circuit agreed to hear appeals in other jet fuel
cases. In April 2005, a three judge panel of the Court of
Appeals ruled in favor of the U.S. The judge in our case is
proceeding with two other jet fuel cases, but at our request has
halted any further action in our case pending a decision in
those cases. Due to the preliminary nature of this matter, there
can be no assurance that we, or the U.S. in the case of the
possible counterclaim, will ultimately prevail, nor is it
possible to predict when any payment will be received if we are
successful. Accordingly, we have not recorded a receivable for
our claim or a liability for any potential counterclaim.

Yorktown Refinery Incident |
On November 25, 2005, a fire occurred at our Yorktown
refinery. Damage was primarily done to the gas plant that
supports the fluid catalytic converter (“FCC”), a unit
that alters the molecular composition of materials sent into the
unit in order to produce gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, heating
oil, and other products. Some piping and instrumentation cables
for other operating units in the refinery were also damaged by
the fire. All of the units at the refinery were shut down to
assess the scope of work needed to return the refinery to safe
and efficient operations. The refinery is being brought back to
operation in two stages. Certain units, including the crude
unit, began operations in January 2006, and the refinery is
currently operating at approximately 40,000 barrels per
day. The gas plant and the FCC are currently targeted to return
to operation in April 2006, at which time the refinery should
return to its normal operating level of approximately
62,000 barrels per day. Although we anticipate that the
Yorktown refinery will return to full operating levels in April,
it is possible that construction delays and other unanticipated
problems could occur that would prevent us from achieving this
goal.
99
GIANT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
As a result of current market conditions, our refining margins
are weaker now than they were at the same time last year.
Additionally, we are selling feedstocks for the FCC rather than
processing them into higher valued gasoline and diesel because
we our not able to operate the FCC as a result of the fire.
We have property insurance coverage with a $1,000,000 deductible
that should cover a significant portion of the costs of
repairing the Yorktown refinery. We also have business
interruption insurance coverage for the financial impact of the
fire after the policies
45-day waiting period
is exceeded. We do not yet know exactly when we will be
receiving payments under these policies or ultimately how much
we will receive. The amounts that we will receive from our
business interruption coverage will necessarily reflect the
margin environment during the time we are not operating at
normal operating levels as a result of the fire, including the
current weaker margin environment. We also may receive amounts
under our business interruption coverage reflecting our sales of
FCC feedstocks during the period of time the unit is not
operational rather than the higher valued products that
otherwise would have been produced and sold.
Note 18 — Related Party Matter
Our board of directors terminated James E. Acridge as our
President and Chief Executive Officer on March 29, 2002,
and replaced him as our Chairman of the Board.
Mr. Acridge’s term of office as a director
subsequently expired on April 29, 2004. Mr. Acridge
subsequently commenced a personal Chapter 11 bankruptcy
proceeding. In 2004, we entered into a settlement agreement with
the trustee in Mr. Acridge’s personal bankruptcy
proceeding that we believe releases us from, among other things,
any claims that either Mr. Acridge or his estate may have
alleged arising out of Mr. Acridge’s termination, as
well as other potential pre-bankruptcy claims that the trustee
might have pursued against us. Pursuant to the settlement, we
made a payment for the benefit of the Acridge estate in the
fourth quarter of 2004, and gave up our right to receive certain
distributions from the Acridge estate as well as from the
bankruptcy estates of certain entities originally controlled by
Mr. Acridge.
We also filed a complaint in the Acridge bankruptcy proceeding
seeking a determination that certain amounts that we believe are
owed to us by Mr. Acridge are not dischargeable in
bankruptcy, including a loan to Mr. Acridge in the
principal amount of $5,000,000, which we wrote off in 2003. In
December 2005, the bankruptcy court entered a judgment for
approximately $7,518,000 in our favor, and excepted this amount
from discharge in the bankruptcy proceeding. We do not know,
however, whether we will actually be able to recover any of this
amount from Mr. Acridge. As a result, we have not recorded
a receivable for the judgment.
Note 19 — Acquisitions:
On August 1, 2005, we acquired an idle crude oil pipeline
running from Jal, New Mexico to Bisti, New Mexico and related
assets from Texas-New Mexico Pipe Line Company. This pipeline is
connected to our existing pipeline network that directly
supplies crude oil to the Bloomfield and Ciniza refineries. We
have begun testing the pipeline and taking other actions related
to placing it in service. Unless currently unanticipated
obstacles are encountered, we anticipate the pipeline will
become operational before the end of 2006.
On July 12, 2005, we acquired 100% of the common shares of
Dial Oil Co. (“Dial Oil”). We funded this acquisition
with cash on hand. Dial Oil is a wholesale distributor of
gasoline, diesel and lubricants in the Four Corners area of the
Southwest. Dial Oil also owns and operates 12 service
stations/convenience stores. Dial Oil’s assets include bulk
petroleum distribution plants, cardlock fueling locations, and a
fleet of truck transports. The acquisition has been accounted
for using the purchase method of accounting whereby the total
purchase price has been allocated to tangible and intangible
assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the fair market
values on the date of acquisition, and goodwill of $10,304,000
was recorded as a result of this acquisition. The pro forma
effect of the acquisition on Giant’s results of operations
is immaterial.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures |
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness

Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting |
No change in our internal control over financial reporting
occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| (c) |
Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial
Reporting |
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal
control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to
our management and board of directors regarding the preparation
and fair presentation of published financial statements.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have
inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined
to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with
respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005.
In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of
December 31, 2005, our internal control over financial
reporting is effective based on those criteria.
On July 12, 2005, we completed the acquisition of Dial Oil
Co. (“Dial Oil”), as discussed elsewhere in this
report. In making management’s assessment of the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting,
we have excluded Dial Oil from our report on internal control
over financial reporting as management did not have sufficient
time to make an assessment of Dial Oil’s internal controls
using the COSO criteria in accordance with Section 404 of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Report Of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Giant Industries, Inc.
Scottsdale, Arizona
We have audited management’s assessment, included in the
accompanying Management Report on Internal Control over
Financial Reporting, that Giant Industries, Inc. and
subsidiaries (the “Company”) maintained effective
internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission. The Company’s management is responsible for
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting
and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control
over financial
103
reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness
of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
based on our audit. As described in the Management Report on
Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded
from their assessment the internal control over financial
reporting at Dial Oil Company, which was acquired on
July 12, 2005 and whose financial statements constitute
10.5 percent and 5.5 percent of net and total assets,
respectively, 3.1 percent of revenues, and 1.8 percent of
operating income from continuing operations of the consolidated
financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2005. Accordingly, our audit did not include
the internal control over financial reporting of Dial Oil
Company.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material
respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, evaluating
management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design
and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing
such other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinions.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed by, or under the supervision of, the
company’s principal executive and principal financial
officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected
by the company’s board of directors, management, and other
personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s
internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
company’s assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over
financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements
due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a
timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the
effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting
to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may
become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
In our opinion, management’s assessment that the Company
maintained effective internal control over financial reporting
as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material
respects, based on the criteria established in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Also in our
opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects,
effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2005, based on the criteria established in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
104
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 of
the Company and our reports dated March 1, 2006 expressed
an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and
financial statement schedule and included an explanatory
paragraph regarding the Company’s 2003 change in its method
of accounting for asset retirement obligations to comply with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143,
“Asset Retirement Obligations” and the Company’s
2005 change in its method of accounting for conditional asset
retirement obligations to comply with Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation 47, “Accounting for
Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations”.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Giant Industries, Inc.
Scottsdale, Arizona
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Giant

in the period ended December 31, 2005, management’s
assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005,
and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, and have
issued our reports thereon dated March 1, 2006 which
express unqualified opinions and the financial statement opinion
includes an explanatory paragraph relating to a change in
accounting method for the adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 143, “Asset Retirement
Obligations” in 2003 and a change in accounting method for
the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board
Interpretation 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset
Retirement Obligations” in 2005; such financial statements
and reports are included elsewhere in this Annual Report on
