Valero Energy Reports Second Quarter 2011 Results
SAN ANTONIO, July 26, 2011 - Valero Energy Corporation (“Valero”, NYSE: VLO) today reported net income attributable to Valero stockholders from continuing operations of $745 million, or $1.30 per share, for the second quarter of 2011, versus $520 million, or $0.92 per share, for the second quarter of 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net income attributable to Valero stockholders from continuing operations was $849 million, or $1.48 per share, versus $440 million, or $0.78 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Second quarter 2011 operating income was $1.3 billion versus second quarter 2010 operating income of $904 million. The increase in operating income was mainly due to an increase of $1.84 per barrel in refining throughput margin combined with an increase of 136,000 barrels per day in refining throughput volumes. The increase in throughput margin was primarily due to higher margins for gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel plus wider discounts for heavy-sour feedstocks on the Gulf Coast and light-sweet crude oil in the Mid-Continent. The increase in throughput volumes was mainly due to operating the Aruba refinery, which was not in operation during the second quarter of 2010.
“Our earnings momentum continues to build,” said Valero Chairman and CEO Bill Klesse. “In the second quarter, refining industry margins and feedstock discounts in our markets expanded from the strong first-quarter levels as global refined product demand continued to grow. To take advantage of this demand growth, we increased refining throughput volumes to our highest utilization rate in three years - despite the impact of an apparent lightning strike to a critical motor at our Port Arthur Refinery in early June. Our entire organization is proud of our employees' efforts to quickly mobilize and mitigate the negative impact at Port Arthur to only two weeks.”
Klesse continued, “Our McKee, Ardmore, and Three Rivers refineries continued to benefit from processing WTI-type and Eagle Ford crude oils, which have been pricing at a significant discount to waterborne light-sweet crude oils such as Brent and LLS. We continued to increase our processing of discounted Eagle Ford crude oil at our Three Rivers refinery, and we plan to process additional volume there and at our Corpus Christi refinery in the third quarter.
“Also in the second quarter, we progressed on key investments to enhance our long-term profitability. We completed the cat-cracker revamp at our St. Charles Refinery and are already seeing yield improvements. At our Memphis Refinery, a third-party oxygen line was completed. As oxygen volumes increase in August, we expect additional improvements to be realized from the Memphis cat-cracker revamp completed last year. We expect both of these projects will significantly improve our reliability performance.”
Commenting on the industry outlook, Klesse said, “With crude oil prices holding in a range and global economic growth continuing, refined product demand will grow. Benchmark margins in the third quarter have increased from second-quarter levels, and the forward curve shows margins are strong into 2012. We continue to see attractive opportunities to export products from our Gulf Coast refineries.”

Valero's retail segment continued its record-setting performance with $135 million in operating income, which was the best second quarter in Valero's history. The increase in operating income was mainly due to higher retail fuel margins plus the Canadian retail division achieved its highest quarterly operating income on record with $48 million.
Valero's ethanol segment operating income was $64 million in the second quarter of 2011 versus $35 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase in operating income was mainly due to an increase in production volumes to 3.4 million gallons per day, the highest quarterly production volume in company history, combined with higher gross margins.
Regarding cash flows in the second quarter of 2011, capital spending was $664 million, of which $133 million was for turnaround and catalyst expenditures. Valero paid $29 million in dividends on its common stock and paid $208 million to redeem long-term debt. Valero also spent $37 million to acquire a terminal and pipelines in eastern Kentucky, which will enable the company to expand its wholesale fuels business. Valero ended the second quarter with $4.1 billion in cash and temporary cash investments as well as $7.6 billion of total debt. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, Valero has reduced debt by approximately $700 million.
Klesse concluded, “Valero has an excellent growth story over the next few years, starting with the solid margin outlook. On August 1st, we plan to close on our acquisition of the Pembroke refinery, marketing, and logistics assets in the U.K. and Ireland. Our major growth projects are on-budget and on-schedule for completion in 2012, including the two hydrocrackers and hydrogen plants that are expected to contribute significant earnings and cash flow when in operation. Those projects benefit from high crude oil and low natural gas prices plus growing global demand for diesel and gasoline, and do not depend on wide discounts for WTI-priced crude oil.”

In addition, the refining segment and Northeast region operating highlights for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 exclude the Delaware City Refinery. |
(c) | Valero acquired three ethanol plants in the first quarter of 2010. The Statement of Income Data includes the results of operations of those plants commencing on their respective acquisition dates. Two plants were acquired from ASA Ethanol Holdings, LLC and the third plant was acquired from Renew Energy LLC. Ethanol production volumes reflected herein are based on total production during each period divided by actual calendar days per period. |
(d) | Credit card transaction processing fees incurred by Valero’s Retail business segment of $24 million and $45 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, were reclassified from Retail operating expenses to cost of sales to conform to the current period classification. In addition, the Retail-U.S. and Retail-Canada operating highlights for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 have been restated to reflect this reclassification. |
(e) | Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes a loss of $542 million ($352 million after tax) on derivative contracts related to forward sales of refined products. These contracts were closed and realized during the first quarter of 2011. The $542 million loss is reflected in refining segment operating income, resulting in a $1.35 reduction in refining throughput margin per barrel for the six months ended June 30, 2011, and is allocated to refining operating income by region, excluding Northeast, based on relative throughput volumes for each region as follows: Gulf Coast- $372 million, or $1.51 per barrel; Mid-Continent- $122 million, or $1.68 per barrel; and West Coast- $48 million, or $1.11 per barrel. |
(f) | General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 includes the recognition of a favorable settlement with one of Valero’s third-party insurers for $40 million. The settlement relates to Valero’s claim of insurance coverage in connection with losses incurred in prior periods. |
(g) | Valero owns a 50 percent member interest in Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC (DGD) and consolidates the financial statements of DGD due to its controlling financial interest in DGD. The loss incurred by DGD that is attributable to the owner of the other 50 percent member interest has been added back to net income to arrive at net income attributable to Valero. DGD is currently building a plant that will process animal fats, used cooking oils, and other vegetable oils into renewable green diesel. The plant will be located next to Valero’s St. Charles Refinery in Norco, Louisiana. |
(h) | Primarily includes petrochemicals, gas oils, No. 6 fuel oil, petroleum coke, and asphalt. |
(i) | The regions reflected herein contain the following refineries: Gulf Coast- Corpus Christi East, Corpus Christi West, Texas City, Houston, Three Rivers, St. Charles, Aruba, and Port Arthur Refineries; Mid-Continent- McKee, Ardmore, and Memphis Refineries; Northeast- Quebec City; and West Coast- Benicia and Wilmington Refineries. |
(j) | Average market reference prices for Louisiana Light Sweet (LLS) crude oil, along with price differentials between the price of LLS crude oil and other types of crude oil, have been included in the table of Average Market Reference Prices and Differentials. The table also includes price differentials by region between the prices of certain products and the benchmark crude oil that provides the best indicator of product margins for each region. Prior to the first quarter of 2011, feedstock and product differentials presented herein were based on the price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil. However, the price of WTI crude oil no longer provides a reasonable benchmark price of crude oil for all regions. Beginning in late 2010, WTI light-sweet crude oil began to price at a discount to waterborne light-sweet crude oils, such as LLS and Brent, because of increased WTI supplies resulting from greater domestic production and increased deliveries of crude oil from Canada into the Mid-Continent region. Therefore, the use of the price of WTI crude oil as a benchmark price for regions that do not process WTI crude oil is no longer reasonable. |
