−Removed: The Partnership determined that goodwill was not impaired based on both its interim and annual evaluations.
−Removed: We identified the evaluation of the goodwill impairment assessments for the terminalling and storage reporting unit as a critical audit matter.
−Removed: Significant auditor judgment was required to evaluate the discounted cash flow projections used in the determinations of fair value, specifically assumptions related to forecasted revenues, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), and the discount rates.
−Removed: These assumptions were challenging to test as the estimated fair values of the terminalling and storage reporting unit were sensitive to possible changes to such assumptions.

+Added: Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.
+Added: If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, the Partnership measures the amount of the impairment by comparing the carrying amount to its estimated fair value.
+Added: The carrying value of property, plant and equipment at December 31, 2021 was $345,470 thousand.
+Added: We identified the evaluation of the recoverability of a certain long-lived asset group in the transportation segment as a critical audit matter.

+Added: Specifically, the forecasted revenue was challenging to evaluate as the
+Added: future undiscounted cash flows were sensitive to minor changes in certain assumptions in the development of forecasted revenue that could have a significant effect on the Partnership’s assessment of the recoverability of the long-lived asset group.
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter.
−Removed: We evaluated the Partnership’s forecasted revenues and EBITDA by comparing them to historical results and analyst reports, considering the portion of revenues and EBITDA projections supported by long-term, fixed fee contracts and the portion impacted by current market conditions.
−Removed: We compared historical forecasts of revenues and EBITDA to actual results to assess the Company’s ability to estimate such amounts.
−Removed: We performed sensitivity analyses over forecasted revenues and EBITDA and the discount rates to assess their impact on the Partnership’s determinations of the fair value of the reporting unit.
−Removed: In addition, we involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in:
−Removed: – evaluating the discount rates used in the terminalling and storage reporting unit’s discounted cash flow models, by comparing them against discount rate ranges that were independently developed using publicly available market data for comparable entities
−Removed: – evaluating the market multiples used within the guideline public company methods, by developing independent calculations of the guideline comparable companies’ multiples using publicly available market data
−Removed: – evaluating the market multiples used within the guideline transaction methods, by comparing against independent transaction searches of publicly available market data from the previous two years
−Removed: – evaluating the control premiums implied in reconciling the sum of the fair values of the individual reporting units with the Partnership’s market capitalizations, by comparing against implied control premiums based on publicly available market data.
+Added: We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Partnership’s long-lived asset impairment assessment process.
+Added: This included controls related to the development of the certain asset group’s future undiscounted cash flows, including the development of forecasted revenue.

+Added: For hedged transactions that are still expected to occur as originally forecasted, the closure results in the realized gain or loss being deferred until the hedged transaction affects earnings.
