Marathon Petroleum Corp. reports first-quarter 2018 results
The previously scheduled conference call and webcast have been cancelled; MPC will hold a conference call and webcast at 8:30 a.m. today. See details below.
• | Reported first-quarter earnings of $37 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, and income from operations of $440 million |
• | Reported record Midstream segment income from operations of $567 million, largely driven by MPLX |
• | Completed significant Galveston Bay refinery turnaround activity ahead of schedule and under budget |
• | Returned $1.55 billion of capital to shareholders, including $1.33 billion of share repurchases |
FINDLAY, Ohio, April 30, 2018 – Marathon Petroleum Corp. (NYSE: MPC) today reported 2018 first-quarter earnings of $37 million, or $0.08 per diluted share. This compares with $30 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2017.
“So far in 2018, we have accomplished many significant milestones,” said Gary R. Heminger, chairman and chief executive officer. "We successfully completed a major turnaround at our Galveston Bay refinery, organically grew our midstream footprint in the Northeast and Permian, announced a definitive agreement to acquire store locations that will expand Speedway into key growth markets, and returned over $1.5 billion of capital to our shareholders.
“As we continue to focus on operational excellence and maximizing our shareholders’ long-term returns, we also are pleased to announce that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has named MPC a 2018 Energy Star Partner of the Year for Energy Management, recognizing our leadership in energy efficiency. We are proud to manufacture, transport and market cost-efficient energy that makes millions of people’s lives better every day, never losing sight of our responsibility to operate safely and efficiently.”
MPC’s first-quarter 2018 income from operations was $440 million, an increase of $149 million over the first quarter of 2017. The year-over-year increase in first-quarter income from operations was partially offset by higher net interest and other financial costs, as well as the increased amount of net income allocated to noncontrolling interests in MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX) resulting from the Feb. 1 dropdown and general partner/IDR exchange transactions. In addition, the effective tax rate for the quarter reflects deferred tax benefits of approximately $20 million, primarily resulting from effects of these strategic transactions.
The Refining and Marketing (R&M) segment reported a loss from operations of $133 million, compared with a loss from operations of $70 million in the first quarter of 2017, largely as a result of the February dropdown. This quarter, activities associated with these businesses
1
reduced R&M segment income from operations by approximately $181 million and increased Midstream segment income from operations by a like amount. Excluding these effects, R&M results improved, driven by higher throughputs and lower direct operating costs from decreased turnaround activity, partially offset by lower product-price realizations.
MPC remains focused on realizing the substantial advantages of its flexible and integrated refining system and enhancing margins through further investments and process improvements. During the quarter, the Garyville refinery completed the final phase of its diesel maximization project. This investment further enhances MPC’s ability to benefit from the adoption of the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) low-sulfur-fuels requirements, scheduled to take effect in 2020, by increasing ultra-low-sulfur-distillate production by 5,000 barrels per day.
The Midstream segment, which largely reflects MPLX, reported record income from operations of $567 million, up from $309 million in the first quarter last year, driven by a strong underlying base business and the February dropdown. The partnership continues to execute on its significant organic growth plan, commissioning three new processing plants during the quarter, further expanding the partnership's earnings base.
Speedway contributed $95 million in segment income from operations, compared with $135 million in the same quarter last year. Results were affected by increased operating expenses, accelerated depreciation arising from technology investments, and adverse weather. In April, consistent with its growth strategy, Speedway announced its agreement to purchase 78 store locations in Syracuse, Rochester and Buffalo, New York. These stores will enhance the existing network and expand Speedway’s brand presence in key growth markets.
During the quarter, MPC returned $1.55 billion to MPC shareholders, including $1.33 billion in share repurchases funded primarily by after-tax cash proceeds from the February dropdown.
“Looking forward, we are very optimistic about the opportunities for our business," Heminger said. "The solid demand backdrop, favorable crude differentials, and changing dynamics of the low-sulfur-fuel market all set the stage to create meaningful benefits across MPC’s integrated and diversified business model.
“Additionally, this morning we were excited to announce that MPC entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Andeavor (NYSE: ANDV). This transaction combines two strong, complementary companies to create a leading U.S. refining, marketing, and midstream company, building a platform that is well-positioned for long-term growth and shareholder value creation."
MPC and Andeavor will hold a conference call and webcast today at 8:30 a.m. to discuss the transaction and related materials can be found on our website.

Refining & Marketing
Refining & Marketing (R&M) segment loss from operations was $133 million in the first quarter of 2018, compared with a loss from operations of $70 million in the same quarter of 2017. The decrease in segment results was primarily due to the Feb. 1, 2018, dropdown of refining logistics assets and fuels distribution services to MPLX. These businesses were reported in the Midstream segment prospectively from Feb. 1, resulting in a net reduction of $181 million to R&M segment results and a net increase to Midstream segment results of the same amount. Prior period segment results do not reflect these new businesses.
The change in segment results also reflects the benefits of increased refinery throughputs, lower direct operating costs and the retroactive enactment of a biodiesel blending tax credit for 2017, offset by lower product price realizations as compared with spot market reference prices. Refinery throughputs totaled 1.9 million barrels per day in first quarter 2018, an increase of almost 12 percent from the first quarter of 2017. The U.S. Gulf Coast (USGC) and Chicago LLS blended 6-3-2-1 crack spread was $7.70 per barrel in the first quarter of 2018 as compared to $7.72 per barrel in the first quarter of 2017.

Speedway
Speedway segment income from operations was $95 million in the first quarter of 2018, compared with $135 million in the first quarter of 2017. Speedway’s light product margin was 15.61 cents per gallon in the first quarter of 2018 compared with 15.66 cents per gallon in the first quarter of 2017. The decrease in segment results was primarily due to higher operating expense, largely related to labor costs, and accelerated depreciation. The accelerated depreciation resulted from Speedway’s upgrade of dispenser technology to provide marketing earnings enhancements and strengthen customer bank card security in advance of the required timeframe. In addition, during the quarter, multiple storms in the Northeast and Midwest markets resulted in reduced traffic at Speedway stores.
Midstream
Midstream segment income from operations, which primarily reflects the results of MPLX, was $567 million in the first quarter of 2018, compared with $309 million for the first quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily due to the Feb. 1 dropdown of refining logistics assets and fuels distribution services to MPLX. Additionally, the Midstream segment benefited from higher gathered, processed and fractionated volumes resulting from new processing facilities.
Items Not Allocated to Segments
Corporate and other unallocated expenses were $88 million in the first quarter of 2018, compared with $83 million in the first quarter of 2017.
Strong Financial Position and Liquidity
On March 31, 2018, the company had $4.7 billion of cash and cash equivalents, excluding MPLX’s cash and cash equivalents of $2 million; $2.5 billion available under a revolving credit agreement; $1 billion available under a 364-day bank revolving credit facility; and full availability under its $750 million trade receivables securitization facility. During the quarter, the company completed the redemption of all of the $600 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of its 2.700% senior notes due in December 2018. The company’s liquidity should provide it with sufficient flexibility to meet its day-to-day operational needs and continue its balanced approach to investing in the business and returning capital to shareholders while maintaining an investment-grade credit profile.

(a) | Segment EBITDA represents segment earnings before interest and financing costs, interest income, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense. Segment EBITDA is used by some investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. Segment EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to MPC, income before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities. |
(b) | On Feb. 1, 2018, we contributed certain refining logistics assets and fuels distribution services to MPLX. The results of these new businesses are reported in the Midstream segment prospectively from Feb. 1, resulting in a net increase of $181 million to Midstream segment results and a net decrease to Refining & Marketing segment results of the same amount in the first quarter of 2018. No effect was given to prior periods as these entities were not considered businesses prior to Feb. 1, 2018. |

We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors and analysts to assess our ongoing financial performance because, when reconciled to its most comparable GAAP measure, it provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance and that may obscure our underlying business results and trends. This measure should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. |
