Fuel inventories included balances stated at the lower of cost or market using the LIFO method. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Partnership’s fuel inventory balance included lower of cost or market reserves of $1 million and $472 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Partnership's cost of sales included favorable LIFO inventory valuation adjustments of $444 million and $61 million, respectively, which increased net income.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Partnership reduced its overall fuel inventories, resulting in a LIFO liquidation. Based on the assumed impact to cost of sales if the liquidated inventories had been replaced, the effect of the LIFO liquidation was an increase of $102 million to pre-tax income, or $0.54 per common unit (excluding any income tax impact or any assumed changes to distributions). Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs; consequently, these interim estimates are subject to changes during the remainder of the year that could impact the final year-end inventory levels or valuation.
