FINDLAY, Ohio, Aug. 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --

  • Reported second-quarter income of $1.1 billion, or earnings per diluted share of $1.66; adjusted income of $1.1 billion, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.73
  • Generated $2.6 billion of operating cash flow and returned $852 million of capital to shareholders, including $500 million in share repurchases
  • Realized synergies of $270 million in the second quarter
  • Strong retail results driven by exceptional execution across Speedway system
  • Successfully combined MPLX and ANDX into one public midstream company
  • Continued focus on portfolio optimization, which could include asset divestitures

Marathon Petroleum Corp. (NYSE: MPC) today reported net income of $1.1 billion, or $1.66 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2019 compared to $1.1 billion, or $2.27 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2018. Excluding adjustments shown in the accompanying earnings release tables, second quarter 2019 adjusted net income was $1.1 billion, or $1.73 per diluted share, compared to $1.1 billion, or $2.29 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2018.

MPC returned $852 million of capital to shareholders during the second quarter of 2019, including $500 million in share repurchases.

"This quarter we executed across our integrated business and progressed many strategic initiatives," said Gary R. Heminger, chairman and chief executive officer. "Our retail business, comprised of Speedway and our direct dealer network, had an exceptional quarter and demonstrated its ability to capture value. We simplified our midstream structure into one public company to high-grade commercial opportunities and progressed an impressive slate of high-return projects that are expected to enhance integration across our system. Lastly, today we also highlighted our continued focus on portfolio optimization, which could include asset divestitures to strategically streamline our integrated asset base.

"We are confident that strengthening business fundamentals throughout the year and the competitive advantages of our integrated business model will both support a growing cash flow profile," said Heminger.

Synergies

MPC realized $270 million of synergies in the second quarter. Some examples of realized synergies include: approximately $60 million of turnaround savings related to lower spending and incremental earnings from completing maintenance under budget and ahead of schedule, approximately $35 million from leveraging scale and logistics assets to optimize Canadian and Bakken supply sources, and approximately $10 million from improved catcracker yields at the company's Los Angeles refinery.

"Our team's impressive execution this quarter led to strong realized synergies," said Heminger. "Combined with our first quarter results, we have realized $403 million of synergies year to date. Our progress gives us great confidence in achieving our target of up to $600 million of annual gross run-rate synergies by year-end 2019 and $1.4 billion by the end of 2021."

Segment Results

In the second quarter of 2019, total income from operations was $2.0 billion compared to $1.7 billion for the second quarter of 2018. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) was $3.2 billion in the second quarter of 2019 compared to $2.3 billion for the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA excludes refining planned turnaround costs of $237 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $62 million in the second quarter of 2018.

Midstream

Midstream segment income from operations, which primarily reflects the results of MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX) and Andeavor Logistics (ANDX), was $878 million in the second quarter of 2019, compared with $617 million for the second quarter of 2018. The increase was due to contributions of $223 million from ANDX and a $38 million increase driven primarily by growth across MPLX's businesses. Segment EBITDA was $1.2 billion in the second quarter 2019 versus $808 million for the same quarter last year.

Retail

Retail segment income from operations was $493 million in the second quarter of 2019, compared with $159 million in the second quarter of 2018. The increase in earnings was largely related to the addition of the legacy Andeavor retail operations and higher fuel and merchandise margin contributions across the legacy Speedway system. Segment EBITDA was $623 million in the second quarter 2019 versus $232 million for the same quarter last year.

Retail fuel margin increased to 26.7 cents per gallon in the second quarter of 2019 from 16.5 cents per gallon in the second quarter of 2018. Same-store merchandise sales increased by 6.3 percent year-over-year and same-store gasoline sales volume decreased by 2.4 percent year-over-year.

Refining & Marketing (R&M)

R&M segment income from operations was $906 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared with $1.0 billion in the same quarter of 2018. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by narrower crude differentials and lower product realizations. R&M margin was $15.24 per barrel for the quarter with a clean product yield of 82 percent.

Segment adjusted EBITDA was $1.6 billion in the second quarter of 2019 versus $1.3 billion for the same quarter last year. Segment adjusted EBITDA excludes refinery planned turnaround costs which totaled $237 million in the second quarter of 2019, as the company completed maintenance work at its Garyville, Los Angeles, and Martinez refineries. This compares to $62 million of turnaround related work in the second quarter of 2018.

Refinery capacity utilization was 97 percent, resulting in total throughputs of 3.1 million barrels per day for the second quarter, which was 1.1 million barrels per day higher than the throughput for the second quarter of last year. The increase was primarily due to the addition of the Andeavor refineries.

Items Not Allocated to Segments and Other

Items not allocated to segments totaled $235 million of expenses in the second quarter of 2019 compared to $90 million in the second quarter of 2018. Second quarter 2019 results include $34 million of transaction-related expenses, $22 million of litigation charges, and the inclusion of legacy Andeavor corporate costs.

Strong Financial Position and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2019, the company had $1.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents (excluding MPLX and ANDX's cash and cash equivalents of $7 million and $25 million, respectively), approximately $5 billion available under a revolving credit agreement, $1 billion available under a 364-day bank revolving credit facility and $750 million available under its trade receivables securitization facility.

Strategic Update

"This quarter saw significant advancement of strategic initiatives that we expect to enhance the strength and cash generation of our integrated model," said Heminger.

MPC combined its two midstream businesses, MPLX and ANDX, to simplify its midstream structure into one public company to high-grade commercial opportunities. At the same time, the company progressed numerous high-return projects that are expected to advance its strategy of creating integrated crude oil and natural gas systems from the Permian Basin to the U.S. Gulf Coast.

During the quarter, MPLX announced a final investment decision on the Whistler natural gas pipeline. MPLX also signed definitive agreements on the Wink-to-Webster crude oil pipeline, in which it is expected to have an equity interest. The Gray Oak Pipeline, in which MPC has a 25 percent equity interest, remains on schedule and is expected to be placed in service in the fourth quarter of 2019. These pipelines will help connect growing domestic production with global demand while also providing refining value to MPC's integrated business.

In the retail segment, Speedway continues to expand its brand through store conversions. As of June 30, 2019, Speedway had completed 237 store conversions in 2019, bringing the total number of conversions since the combination with Andeavor to 407. The company remains on track to complete 700 total cumulative store conversions by the end of 2019 including locations in the Southwest and on the West Coast. In July 2019, Speedway closed on its acquisition of 33 NOCO Express convenience stores in the Buffalo, New York area. The acquisition further expands Speedway's brand presence in this region while supporting MPC's Midwest product placement strategy and builds upon prior investments to maximize refinery utilization.

MPC also continues to expand its presence in Mexico. In addition to expanding its refined product distribution into this region, the company now has 155 ARCO stations in Mexico as of June 30, 2019, with plans to continue growing its brand. These stores provide additional product outlets and enhanced integration with the refining business.

In anticipation of the expected favorable uplift from the International Maritime Organization low-sulfur marine fuel rule, MPC has positioned its integrated business to optimize around changing market dynamics associated with the bunker fuel regulation change in 2020. The company's preparations have included resid destruction strategies and bunker blending logistics capabilities.

During the quarter, the company progressed the completion of its Garyville crude revamp and coker drum replacement projects. The crude project is expected to be completed by the end of 2019. The coker project is expected to increase unit capacity by approximately 14 percent and remains on track to be completed in two phases, fourth quarter of 2019 and first quarter of 2020. On the logistics side, the company finalized plans to optimize its coker feed and resid processing capabilities between refineries and ensured readiness of its blending and storage capabilities near its key coastal export facilities.

Lastly, the company highlighted its continued focus on portfolio optimization, which could include asset divestitures. Proceeds from any divestitures would be used for general purposes, such as investments in high-return projects as well as debt reduction.

Factors that could cause MPC's actual results to differ materially from those implied in the forward-looking statements include: the risk that the cost savings and any other synergies from the Andeavor transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; disruption from the Andeavor transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees or suppliers; risks relating to any unforeseen liabilities of Andeavor; risks related to the acquisition of Andeavor Logistics LP by MPLX LP (MPLX), including the risk that anticipated opportunities and any other synergies from or anticipated benefits of the transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected, including whether the transaction will be accretive within the expected timeframe or at all, or disruption from the transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees or suppliers; the ability to complete any divestitures on commercially reasonable terms and/or within the expected timeframe, and the effects of any such divestitures on the business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows; future levels of revenues, refining and marketing margins, operating costs, retail gasoline and distillate margins, merchandise margins, income from operations, net income or earnings per share; the regional, national and worldwide availability and pricing of refined products, crude oil, natural gas, NGLs and other feedstocks; consumer demand for refined products; the ability to manage disruptions in credit markets or changes to credit ratings; future levels of capital, environmental or maintenance expenditures, general and administrative and other expenses; the success or timing of completion of ongoing or anticipated capital or maintenance projects; the reliability of processing units and other equipment; business strategies, growth opportunities and expected investment; share repurchase authorizations, including the timing and amounts of any common stock repurchases; the adequacy of capital resources and liquidity, including but not limited to, availability of sufficient cash flow to execute business plans and to effect any share repurchases or dividend increases, including within the expected timeframe; the effect of restructuring or reorganization of business components; the potential effects of judicial or other proceedings on the business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows; continued or further volatility in and/or degradation of general economic, market, industry or business conditions; compliance with federal and state environmental, economic, health and safety, energy and other policies and regulations, including the cost of compliance with the Renewable Fuel Standard, and/or enforcement actions initiated thereunder; the anticipated effects of actions of third parties such as competitors, activist investors or federal, foreign, state or local regulatory authorities or plaintiffs in litigation; the impact of adverse market conditions or other similar risks to those identified herein affecting MPLX; and the factors set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" in MPC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2018, filed with the SEC. Copies of MPC's Form 10-K are available on the SEC website, MPC's website at https://www.marathonpetroleum.com/Investors/ or by contacting MPC's Investor Relations office. Copies of MPLX's Form 10-K are available on the SEC website, MPLX's website at http://ir.mplx.com or by contacting MPLX's Investor Relations office.

We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry. We caution that these statements are not guarantees of future performance and you should not rely unduly on them, as they involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that we cannot predict. In addition, we have based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. While our management considers these assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the future performance that we have expressed or forecast in our forward-looking statements.  We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements except to the extent required by applicable law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses certain financial measures to evaluate our operating performance that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and analysts to assess our ongoing financial performance because, when reconciled to their most comparable GAAP financial measures, they provide 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. These measures 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. The non-GAAP financial measures we use are as follows:

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to MPC
Adjusted net income attributable to MPC is defined as net income attributable to MPC excluding the items in the table below, along with their related income tax effect. We have excluded these items because we believe that they are not indicative of our core operating performance and that their exclusion results in an important measure of our ongoing financial performance to better assess our underlying business results and trends.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share
Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as adjusted net income attributable to MPC divided by the number of weighted-average shares outstanding in the applicable period, assuming dilution.

(a)

We generally tax effect taxable adjustments to reported earnings using a combined federal and state statutory rate of approximately 24 percent.

(b)

Weighted-average diluted shares outstanding and income allocated to participating securities, if applicable, in the adjusted earnings per share calculation are the same as those used in the GAAP diluted earnings per share calculation.

Adjusted EBITDA & Segment Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA represent earnings before net interest and other financial costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense as well as adjustments to exclude refining turnaround costs and items not allocated to segment results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and analysts to analyze and compare our operating performance between periods by excluding items that do not reflect the core operating results of our business or in the case of turnarounds, which provide benefits over multiple years. We also believe that excluding turnaround costs from this metric is useful for comparability to other companies as certain of our competitors defer these costs and amortize them between turnarounds. Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to segment income (loss) from operations, 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 GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
