|
Gross margin increased by $55 million in the third quarter of 2019 to $228 million as compared to $173 million in the third quarter of 2018. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by a decrease in natural gas costs, partially offset by higher shipping and distribution costs and higher costs related to plant turnaround and maintenance activity.
|
•
|
In the third quarter of 2019, we recognized $27 million of additional income from insurance proceeds as compared to the third quarter of 2018. This is more fully described in the section above titled “Items Affecting Comparability of Results.”
|
•
|
In the three months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized a decrease of $16 million in our equity in earnings of operating affiliate, representing our 50% share of PLNL’s charge related to a tax withholding matter for tax years 2011 to the current period. This is more fully described in the section above titled “Items Affecting Comparability of Results.”
|
•
|
Our income tax provision increased by $7 million in the third quarter of 2019 to $19 million as compared to $12 million in the third quarter of 2018 due to higher earnings before income taxes.
