Delek US Holdings Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2013

  • El Dorado turnaround completed; Light crude capability increased
  • Declares $0.15 regular quarterly dividend

BRENTWOOD, Tenn.--()--Delek US Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: DK) (“Delek US”), a diversified energy company with assets in the petroleum refining, logistics and retail industries, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2013.

For the three months ended December 31, 2013, Delek US reported a fourth quarter net loss of $(4.7) million, or $(0.08) per basic share, versus net income of $64.3 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter 2012.

For the fourth quarter 2013, the decrease in earnings compared to the prior year period is primarily attributable to the refining segment. This segment faced less favorable market conditions as the benchmark Gulf Coast 5-3-2 crack spread declined year-over-year. Also, results were negatively impacted by approximately $6.8 million after tax of special items that consisted primarily of additional general and administrative expenses and turnaround related activity. For the fourth quarter 2013, the company incurred a higher income tax expense, which resulted in an annual effective tax rate of approximately 37.6%, when adjusted for minority interest.

For the full year 2013, Delek US reported net income of $117.7 million, or $1.96 per diluted share, versus net income of $272.8 million, or $4.57 per diluted share in 2012.

Uzi Yemin, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Delek US stated, “We faced a range of market conditions during 2013, from a strong first half of the year to a much more challenging second half. While markets have continued to change, our focus has remained on the execution of our strategy to increase flexibility as well as the continued growth of our company. As a result of this focus, we achieved record annual crude throughput at the Tyler refinery, unlocked additional value in and expanded our logistics assets, while returning a record amount of cash to our shareholders through increased dividends and share repurchases. During the fourth quarter, we completed a planned partial turnaround at our Tyler refinery, opened four large format stores and acquired a terminal in our logistics segment.”

As of December 31, 2013, Delek US had a cash balance of $400.0 million and total debt of $410.3 million, resulting in net debt of $10.3 million. This compares to $59.2 million of net cash at September 30, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, Delek US’ subsidiary, Delek Logistics Partners, LP (NYSE: DKL) (“Delek Logistics”), had a cash balance of approximately $0.9 million and $164.8 million of debt, which is included in the consolidated amounts on Delek US’ balance sheet. Excluding Delek Logistics, Delek US had $399.1 million in cash and $245.5 million of debt, or $153.6 million net cash position.

Capital Project Update

El Dorado Refinery

The El Dorado turnaround was completed during February 2014. In addition, the pre-flash tower project to increase light crude capability by 10,000 barrels per day was completed, along with the replacement of the fluid catalytic cracking reactor with state of the art technology. These projects are expected to improve operating efficiencies and crude flexibility at this refinery, allowing it to operate at a crude throughput of 80,000 barrels per day using either a light crude or heavier medium sour crude slate, depending on refined product and crude oil pricing.

Tyler Refinery

In December 2013, planned turnaround work was done on some units including the diesel hydrotreater and coker. This work was completed during a two week period and reduced crude throughput and production of light products, particularly ULSD. The final portion of Tyler’s planned turnaround will be completed during the first quarter 2015.

Regular Quarterly Dividend

Delek US announced today that its Board of Directors declared its regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share. Shareholders of record on March 11, 2014 will receive this cash dividend payable on March 25, 2014.

Yemin concluded, “We have started 2014 with steps that should create additional growth and value for the company. So far this year, the completion of the El Dorado turnaround increased the refinery’s light crude capability and the recent El Dorado drop down to Delek Logistics further unlocked the value of our logistics assets. As we move forward, we remain focused on investing in our business and returning value to our shareholders.”

Refining Segment

Refining segment contribution margin was $45.8 million in the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $149.7 million in the fourth quarter 2012. Contribution margin at the El Dorado refinery was $20.5 million in the fourth quarter 2013 compared to a contribution margin of $54.9 million in fourth quarter 2012. Contribution margin at Tyler was $23.6 million in the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $95.3 million in the same prior year period.

Performance in the refining segment was lower on a year-over-year basis due to several factors. The fourth quarter 2013 benchmark Gulf Coast 5-3-2 crack spread averaged $13.11 per barrel compared with a 5-3-2 crack spread of $26.71 during fourth quarter 2012. In addition, the crude oil futures market was backwardated during the fourth quarter 2013, compared to a market that was in contango during the fourth quarter 2012, further increasing the average crude oil price on a year-over-year basis at the refineries. Finally, WTI Midland crude discount to WTI Cushing, which averaged $2.32 per barrel in fourth quarter 2013 compared to an average of $3.55 per barrel in the prior-year-period, was also a contributing factor to lower refining margins. Since the end of the fourth quarter 2013, this differential has widened during the first quarter to approximately $3.36 per barrel on average, which reduces the cost on 87,000 barrels per day of crude received from Midland in the refining system.

Tyler, Texas Refinery

Total throughput at the Tyler refinery was 58,531 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2013, versus 66,581 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2012. Total sales volumes were 59,693 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2013, compared to 67,617 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2012. Throughput and sales volumes were reduced on a year-over-year basis during the fourth quarter 2013, primarily as a result of planned turnaround work completed on several units in December 2013.

Direct operating expense was $26.6 million, or $4.85 per barrel sold, in the fourth quarter 2013, versus $26.4 million, or $4.25 per barrel sold, in the fourth quarter 2012. This increase per barrel was primarily due to lower throughputs associated with planned turnaround work during December 2013.

Tyler refining margin was $9.15 per barrel sold in the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $19.57 per barrel sold for the same quarter last year. This decrease was primarily due to less favorable market conditions and the factors discussed above.

El Dorado, Arkansas Refinery

Total throughput at the El Dorado refinery was 73,497 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2013 compared to 74,765 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2012. Net barrels sold, which exclude buy/sell activity, was 70,000 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2013 compared to 70,133 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2012. On a sequential basis, sales volume declined from 79,804 barrels per day in the third quarter 2013 primarily due to preparation for the January 2014 turnaround as light product inventory was increased to meet expected product demand during the turnaround period.

The El Dorado refinery operated at 64,837 barrels per day of crude throughput during the quarter compared to 63,199 barrels per day in the fourth quarter 2012. The refinery processed approximately 1,477 barrels per day of intermediate products from Tyler during the fourth quarter 2013. In addition, approximately 8,100 barrels per day of crude supplied by rail, including 2,900 barrels per day of heavy Canadian, were purchased during the fourth quarter 2013.

Direct operating expense was $28.6 million, or $4.45 per net barrel sold in the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $27.7 million, or $4.30 per net barrel sold, during the fourth quarter of 2012. This increase was primarily due to outside services.

El Dorado refining margin was $7.62 per net barrel sold in the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $12.80 per net barrel sold during the fourth quarter of 2012. This decrease was due to market conditions and other factors discussed above.

Logistics Segment

Delek US and its affiliates beneficially own approximately 62 percent (including the 2 percent general partner interest) of all outstanding Delek Logistics units. While the logistics segment results include 100 percent of the performance of Delek Logistics, adjustments for the minority interests are made on a consolidated basis.

The logistics segment’s contribution margin in the fourth quarter 2013 was $18.6 million. Year-over-year results benefited from a combination of higher volumes in the Lion pipeline and SALA gathering systems, the sale of renewable identification numbers (RINs) related to blending ethanol, a full quarter of contribution from contracts associated with services provided to Delek US’ refineries and fees generated from the Paline pipeline. The segment’s results also benefited from Delek Logistics’ acquisition of the product terminal and substantially all of the storage tanks at the Tyler, Texas refinery from a subsidiary of Delek US in July 2013.

On February 10, 2014, Delek US completed a drop down of logistics assets to Delek Logistics with the sale of certain storage tanks and the products terminal located at the El Dorado refinery for $95.9 million in cash.

Retail Segment

Retail segment contribution margin was $7.1 million in the fourth quarter 2013. This compares with fourth quarter 2012 results of $8.7 million. Higher fuel margins were offset by lower merchandising margins and higher operating costs on a year-over-year basis. Merchandising margin decreased to 28.0% in fourth quarter 2013, compared to 29.6% in the same prior year period. Fuel margin increased to 14.2 cents per gallon in the fourth quarter 2013 from 13.8 cents per gallon in the prior year period. Operating expenses were $33.6 million compared to $32.0 million in the fourth quarter 2012.

At the conclusion of the fourth quarter 2013, the retail segment operated 361 locations, versus 373 locations at the end of the fourth quarter 2012. Ten new large-format stores were opened during 2013 including four during the fourth quarter. An additional 10 to 15 large-format stores are expected to be opened during 2014.
