Highlight of Business Operations: We own, control or have access to one of the largest terminal networks of refined petroleum products in Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Northeast”). We are one of the largest wholesale distributors of gasoline, distillates (such as home heating oil, diesel and kerosene) and residual oil to wholesalers, retailers and commercial customers in the New England states and New York. In addition, we own and supply fuel to 190 Mobil branded retail gas stations in New England and supply Mobil branded fuel to 31 independently-owned stations in New England. We also receive revenue from retail sales of gasoline, convenience stores sales and rental income from gasoline stations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, we sold approximately $1.5 billion and $5.0 billion, respectively, of refined petroleum products and small amounts of natural gas.
Assuming we exercise available renewal terms, the leases for the 24 Dealer Leased Sites leased by us expire between 2011 and 2033, with an average remaining lease term of approximately 12 years. The base rent paid in 2009 for the 24 leased Dealer Leased Sites was approximately $1.6 million and approximately $360,000 was paid for real estate taxes.

The Strategy of Ben Graham – Warren Buffett’s Mentor

From 1923 to 1957 Warren Buffett’s mentor, Ben Graham, followed a strategy of investing in net-nets. He said: “It always seemed, and still seems ridiculously simple to say that if one can acquire a diversified group of common stocks at a price less than the...net current assets alone…the results should be quite satisfactory. They were so in our experience, for more than 30 years.”
Today net-nets are rare. They are collected under GuruFocus’ Net-Net Screener. GuruFocus also publishes a monthly newsletter which recommends the safest net-nets. All of these are included in GuruFocus Premium Membership.
