Delek Logistics Partners, LP
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
As used in this report, the terms "Delek Logistics Partners, LP," the "Partnership," "we," "us," or "our" may refer to Delek Logistics Partners, LP, one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries or all of them taken as a whole. The Partnership is a Delaware limited partnership formed in April 2012 by Delek US Holdings, Inc. ("Delek Holdings") and its subsidiary Delek Logistics GP, LLC, our general partner (our "general partner").
The Partnership provides gathering, pipeline and other transportation services primarily for crude oil and natural gas customers, storage, wholesale marketing and terminalling services primarily for intermediate and refined product customers, and water disposal and recycling services through its owned assets and joint ventures located primarily in the Permian Basin (including the Delaware sub-basin) and other select areas in the Gulf Coast region. A majority of our existing assets are both integral to and dependent upon the success of Delek Holdings' refining operations, as many of our assets are contracted exclusively to Delek Holdings in support of its Tyler, Texas (the "Tyler Refinery"), El Dorado, Arkansas (the "El Dorado Refinery") and Big Spring, Texas (the "Big Spring Refinery").
On August 2, 2024, Delek Logistics Partners, LP (the “Purchaser”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with H2O Midstream Holdings, LLC (the “Seller”) to purchase 100 % of the limited liability company interests in H2O Midstream Intermediate, LLC, H2O Midstream Permian LLC, and H2O Midstream LLC (the “Purchased Interests”), related to the Seller’s water disposal and recycling operations, in the Midland Basin in Texas (the “Purchase Agreement”). See Note 10 for further information.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted, although management believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the financial information presented not misleading. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis with those of the annual audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our "Annual Report on Form 10-K"), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 28, 2024 and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
All adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been included. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Such intercompany transactions do not include those with Delek Holdings or our general partner, which are presented as related parties in these accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the interim period should not be viewed as representative of results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the full year.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2024-02, Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements
In March 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-02 Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements ("ASU 2024-02"), which amends the Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification") to remove references to various concepts statements and impacts a variety of topics in the Codification. The ASU is intended to simplify the Codification and draw a distinction between authoritative and non-authoritative literature. ASU 2024-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and can be applied on either a prospective or retroactive basis. The Partnership does not expect this update to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporti ng (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). ASU 2023-07 expands reportable segment disclosure requirements by requiring disclosures of significant reportable segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief decision maker ("CODM") and included within each reported measure of a segment's profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets. The ASU also requires disclosure of the title and position of the individual or the group identified as the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of a segment's profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 should not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. See Note 8 for further information.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
ASU 2023-06, Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06 Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"). The main provision of ASU 2023-06 is to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of topics, which will allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC's existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the requirements, and align the requirements in the FASB accounting standard codification with the SEC's regulations. The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. The Partnership is currently evaluating the provisions of the amendments and the impact on its future condensed consolidated statements, but does not currently expect adopting this new guidance will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
2. Related Party Transactions
Commercial Agreements
The Partnership has a number of long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with Delek Holdings under which we provide various services, including crude oil gathering and crude oil, intermediate and refined products transportation and storage services, and marketing, terminalling and offloading services to Delek Holdings. Most of these agreements have an initial term ranging from five to ten years , which may be extended for various renewal terms at the option of Delek Holdings. The fees under each agreement are payable to us monthly by Delek Holdings or certain third parties to whom Delek Holdings has assigned certain of its rights and are generally subject to increase or decrease on July 1 of each year, by the amount of any change in various inflation-based indices, however, in no event will the fees be adjusted below the amount initially set forth in the applicable agreement. Under each of these agreements, we are required to maintain the capabilities of our pipelines and terminals, such that Delek Holdings may throughput and/or store, as the case may be, specified volumes of crude oil, intermediate and refined products.
See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more complete description of our material commercial agreements and other agreements with Delek Holdings.
Other Agreements with Delek Holdings
In addition to the commercial agreements described above, the Partnership has entered into the following agreements with Delek Holdings:
Omnibus Agreement
The Partnership entered into an omnibus agreement with Delek Holdings, our general partner, Delek Logistics Operating, LLC, Lion Oil Company, LLC and certain of the Partnership’s and Delek Holdings' other subsidiaries on November 7, 2012, which has been amended and restated from time to time in connection with acquisitions from Delek Holdings (collectively, as amended and restated, the "Omnibus Agreement"). See Note 10 for a description of recent amendments to the Omnibus Agreement. The Omnibus Agreement governs the provision of certain operational services and reimbursement obligations, among other matters, between the Partnership and Delek Holdings, and obligates us to pay an annual fee of $ 4.4 million to Delek Holdings for its provision of centralized corporate services to the Partnership.
Pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Agreement, we are reimbursed by Delek Holdings for certain capital expenditures. These amounts are recorded in other long-term liabilities and are amortized to revenue over the life of the underlying revenue agreement corresponding to the asset. There were no reimbursements by Delek Holdings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. There were no reimbursements by Delek Holdings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Additionally, we are reimbursed or indemnified, as the case may be, for costs incurred in excess of certain amounts related to certain asset failures, pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Agreement. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was no receivable from related parties for these matters. These reimbursements are recorded as reductions to operating expense. There were no reimbursements for these matters in each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 or the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023.
Other Transactions
The Partnership manages long-term capital projects on behalf of Delek Holdings pursuant to a construction management and operating agreement (the "DPG Management Agreement") for the construction of gathering systems in the Permian Basin. The majority of the gathering systems have been constructed, however, additional costs pertaining to a pipeline connection that was not acquired by the Partnership continue to be incurred and are still subject to the terms of the DPG Management Agreement. The Partnership is also considered the operator for the project and is responsible for oversight of the project design, procurement and construction of project segments and provides other related services. Pursuant to the terms of the DPG Management Agreement, the Partnership receives a monthly operating services fee and a construction services fee, which includes the Partnership's direct costs of managing the project plus an additional percentage fee of the construction costs of each project segment. The agreement extends through December 2024. Total fees paid to the Partnership were $ 0.4 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and $ 0.8 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, which are recorded in affiliate revenue in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Additionally, the Partnership incurs the costs in connection with the construction of the assets and is subsequently reimbursed by Delek Holdings. Amounts reimbursable by Delek Holdings are recorded in accounts receivable from related parties.

DKL Credit Facility
On October 13, 2022, the Partnership entered into a senior secured term loan with an original principal of $ 300.0 million (the "DKL Term Loan Facility"). On November 6, 2023, the Partnership entered into a First Amendment, a Second Amendment and a Third Amendment to the DKL Credit Facility (together, the “Amendments”) which among other things, extended the maturity of the DKL Term Loan Facility to April 15, 2025. The outstanding principal balance of $ 281.3 million was paid on March 13, 2024 from a portion of the proceeds received with the issuance of the 2029 Notes as indicated below. At the Partnership's option, borrowings bore interest at either the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate benchmark (“SOFR”) or U.S. dollar prime rate, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin was 2.50 % for the first year of the DKL Term Loan Facility and 3.00 % for the second year for U.S. dollar prime rate borrowings. SOFR rate borrowings included a credit spread adjustment of 0.10 % to 0.25 % plus an applicable margin of 3.50 % for the first year and 4.00 % for the second year. At December 31, 2023, the weighted average borrowing rate was approximately 9.46 %. Debt extinguishment costs were $ 2.1 million and are recorded in interest expense, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
On March 29, 2024, the Partnership entered into a Fourth Amendment to the amended and restated senior secured revolving credit agreement (the "DKL Revolving Facility") which among other things increased the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments (as defined in the DKL Credit Facility) by an amount equal to $ 100.0 million resulting in aggregate lender commitments under the Delek Logistics Revolving Credit Facility in an amount of $ 1,150.0 million, including up to $ 146.9 million for letters of credit and $ 31.9 million in swing line loans. This facility has a maturity date of October 13, 2027.
The DKL Revolving Facility requires a quarterly unused commitment fee based on average commitment usage, currently at 0.40 % per annum. Interest is measured at either the U.S. dollar prime rate plus an applicable margin of 1.00 % to 2.00 % depending on the Partnership’s Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the DKL Credit Agreement), or a SOFR rate plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10 % or 0.25 % and an applicable margin ranging from 2.00 % to 3.00 % depending on the Partnership’s Total Leverage Ratio. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the weighted average interest rate was 8.00 % and 8.46 %, respectively. There were no letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.
The obligations under the DKL Revolving Facility are secured by first priority liens on substantially all of the Partnership’s and its subsidiaries’ tangible and intangible assets. The carrying value of outstanding borrowings under the DKL Revolving Facility as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 approximate their fair values. Our debt facilities contain affirmative and negative covenants and events of default the Partnership considers usual and customary. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with covenants on all of our debt instruments.
Related Party Revolving Credit Facility
On November 6, 2023, the Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into a certain Promissory Note (the “Related Party Revolving Credit Facility”) with Delek Holdings. The Related Party Revolving Credit Facility provided for revolving borrowings with aggregate commitments of $ 70.0 million comprised of a (i) $ 55.0 million senior tranche and a (ii) $ 15.0 million subordinated tranche (the “Subordinated Tranche”), with the initial borrowings under the Subordinated Tranche conditioned upon the Partnership and Delek Holdings reaching an agreement with Fifth Third Bank, National Association, as administrative agent under the DKL Credit Facility, on subordination provisions and other material terms related to the Subordinated Tranche. The Related Party Revolving Credit Facility bore interest at Term SOFR (as defined in the Related Party Revolving Credit Facility) plus 3.00 %. The Related Party Revolving Credit Facility proceeds were available for the Partnership’s working capital purposes and other general corporate purposes. On May 2, 2024, the Boards of Directors of Delek Holdings and our general partner authorized the termination of the intercompany loan agreement between Delek Holdings and the Partnership, which was effective on May 31, 2024.
2029 Notes
On March 13, 2024, the Partnership and our wholly owned subsidiary Delek Logistics Finance Corp. ("Finance Corp." and together with the Partnership, the "Issuers") sold $ 650.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.625 % senior notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes") at par, pursuant to an indenture with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association as trustee. Net proceeds were used to redeem the 2025 Notes including accrued interest, pay off the DKL Term Facility including accrued interest and to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the DKL Revolving Facility.
On April 17, 2024, the Issuers sold $ 200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of additional 8.625 % senior notes due 2029 (the “Additional 2029 Notes”), at 101.25 %. The Additional 2029 Notes were issued under the same indenture as the 2029 Notes and formed a part of the same series of notes as the 2029 Notes. The net proceeds were used to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the DKL Revolving Facility.
The 2029 Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of the Issuers and are unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by the Partnership's subsidiaries other than Finance Corp., and will be unconditionally guaranteed on the same basis by certain of the Partnership’s future subsidiaries. The 2029 Notes rank equal in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Issuers, and senior in right payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of the Issuers. The 2029 Notes will mature on March 15, 2029, and interest on the 2029 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on each March 15 and September 15, commencing September 15, 2024.

We aggregate our operating segments into four reportable segments: (i) gathering and processing; (ii) wholesale marketing and terminalling; (iii) storage and transportation; and (iv) investment in pipeline joint ventures. Operations that are not specifically included in the reportable segments are included in Corporate and other segment.
The CODM evaluates performance based on EBITDA for planning and forecasting purposes. EBITDA is an important measure used by management to evaluate the financial performance of our core operations. EBITDA is not a GAAP measure, but the components of EBITDA are computed using amounts that are determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of EBITDA to Net Income is included in the tables below. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, including amortization of marketing contract intangible, which is included as a component of net revenues in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
Assets by segment are not a measure used to assess the performance of the Partnership by the CODM and thus is not disclosed.
The following is a summary of business segment operating performance as measured by EBITDA for the periods indicated (in thousands):

9. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
In the ordinary conduct of our business, we are from time to time subject to lawsuits, investigations and claims, including environmental claims and employee-related matters. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits, investigations and claims asserted against us, including civil penalties or other enforcement actions, we do not believe that any currently pending legal proceeding or proceedings to which we are a party will have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.
Texas Department of Transportation Settlement
Beginning in August 2023, the Partnership was involved in litigation with the State of Texas Department of Transportation. The subject of the litigation was the expansion of the highway where the Partnership's Nettleton Station is situated. As a result of this expansion, four tanks owned by the Partnership were impacted. This litigation was settled in the second quarter of 2024 and resulted in the Partnership recovering $ 8.3 million in condemnation proceeds, which are recorded in other operating income, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
Environmental, Health and Safety
We are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental and safety laws and regulations enforced by various agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA"), the United States Department of Transportation, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, as well as numerous state, regional and local environmental, safety and pipeline agencies. These laws and regulations govern the discharge of materials into the environment, waste management practices and pollution prevention measures, as well as the safe operation of our pipelines and the safety of our workers and the public. Numerous permits or other authorizations are required under these laws and regulations for the operation of our terminals, pipelines, saltwells, trucks and related operations, and may be subject to revocation, modification and renewal.
These laws and permits raise potential exposure to future claims and lawsuits involving environmental and safety matters, which could include soil, surface water and groundwater contamination, air pollution, personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by substances which we may have handled, used, released or disposed of, transported, or that relate to pre-existing conditions for which we may have assumed responsibility. We believe that our current operations are in substantial compliance with existing environmental and safety requirements. However, there have been and we expect that there will continue to be ongoing discussions about environmental and safety matters between us and federal and state authorities, including the receipt and response to notices of violations, citations and other enforcement actions, some of which have resulted or may result in changes to operating procedures and in capital expenditures. While it is often difficult to quantify future environmental or safety related expenditures, we anticipate that continuing capital investments and changes in operating procedures will be required to comply with existing and new requirements, as well as evolving interpretations and enforcement of existing laws and regulations.
Releases of hydrocarbons or hazardous substances into the environment could, to the extent the event is not insured, or is not a reimbursable event under the Omnibus Agreement, subject us to substantial expenses, including costs to respond to, contain and remediate a release, to comply with applicable laws and regulations and to resolve claims by governmental agencies or other persons for personal injury, property damage, response costs, or natural resources damages.
10. Subsequent Events
Distribution Declaration
On July 30, 2024, our general partner's board of directors declared a quarterly cash distribution of $ 1.090 per unit, payable on August 14, 2024, to unitholders of record on August 9, 2024.

Planned H2O Midstream Acquisition
On August 2, 2024, the Partnership entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with H2O Midstream Holdings, LLC (the “Seller”) to purchase 100 % of the limited liability company interests in H2O Midstream Intermediate, LLC, H2O Midstream Permian LLC, and H2O Midstream LLC (the “Purchased Interests” or "H2O Midstream"), related to the Seller’s water disposal and recycling operations, in the Midland Basin in Texas (the “Purchase Agreement”) for total consideration of $ 230.0 million, subject to customary adjustments under the Purchase Agreement for net working capital and indebtedness (the "H2O Transaction"). The purchase price is comprised of $ 160.0 million in cash and $ 70.0 million of preferred equity. We paid a deposit under the Purchase Agreement of $ 23.0 million. The deposit may be retained by the Seller upon certain termination events described in the Purchase Agreement. At closing, the deposit will be applied to the purchase price to be paid under the Purchase Agreement. The closing of the H2O Transaction is currently anticipated to occur by the end of 2024.
Wink to Webster Pipeline Investment Acquisition
On August 5, 2024, the Partnership acquired a 50 % investment in W2W Holdings LLC which includes a 15.6 % indirect interest in the Wink to Webster Pipeline, LLC joint venture ("Wink to Webster"), and related joint venture indebtedness, from a wholly owned subsidiary of Delek Holdings. W2W Holdings LLC was originally formed by Delek Holdings and MPLX Operations LLC to obtain financing and fund capital calls associated with its collective and contributed interests in Wink to Webster. Wink to Webster owns and operates a long-haul crude oil pipeline system with origin points at Wink and Midland in the Permian Basin and delivery points at multiple Houston area locations. Total consideration was comprised of $ 86.6 million in cash, forgiveness of an approximately $ 60 million receivable from Delek Holdings and 2,300,000 of common units representing limited partnership interest in us.
Commercial Agreements
