Item 2.02    Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
As previously announced, beginning with the fourth quarter of 2017, HollyFrontier Corporation (“HollyFrontier”) operations are organized into three reportable segments, Refining, Lubricants and Specialty Products and HEP. The Refining segment includes the operations of HollyFrontier’s El Dorado, Tulsa, Navajo, Cheyenne and Woods Cross Refineries and HollyFrontier Asphalt. The Lubricants and Specialty Products segment includes the operations of HollyFrontier’s Petro-Canada Lubricants business in addition to specialty lubricant products produced at HollyFrontier’s Tulsa Refinery. The HEP segment involves all of the operations of Holly Energy Partners, L.P.
HollyFrontier revised the following refining segment operating data computations: refinery gross margin; net operating margin; and operating expenses to better align with similar measurements provided by other companies in its industry and to facilitate comparison of its refining performance relative to its peers. Effective with this change, these measurements are now inclusive of all refining segment activities, including HollyFrontier asphalt operations and revenues and costs related to products purchased for resale and excess crude oil sales.
In order to provide historical refining segment operating data on a basis consistent with its new measurement structure, HollyFrontier revised its refining segment operating data for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016 and the three months ended December 31, 2016 in HollyFrontier’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2017 and/or in HollyFrontier’s Earnings Release issued February 21, 2018, to conform to its new measurement structure. This revised data has no impact on HollyFrontier’s earnings or earnings per share in any period.
Furnished as Exhibit 99.1 is a supplemental schedule containing unaudited refining segment operating data for each of the three months ended March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017. The operating data contained in Exhibit 99.1 does not represent a restatement or reissuance of previously issued financial statements.
The information in this Item 2.02, including the exhibits in Item 9.01, should be read in conjunction with HollyFrontier’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and HollyFrontier’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017.
