FINDLAY, Ohio, May 5, 2020 – Marathon Petroleum Corp. (NYSE: MPC) today reported a net loss of $9.2 billion, or $(14.25) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2020, compared to a loss of $7 million, or $(0.01) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2019.
First-quarter 2020 results include pre-tax charges of $12.4 billion primarily related to non-cash impairments. Details on these and other adjustments are shown in the accompanying release tables. Adjusted net loss was $106 million, or $(0.16) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2020, compared to an adjusted net loss of $59 million, or $(0.09) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2019.
“Recent global events, including the COVID-19 pandemic and oil price tensions, have been disruptive to the personal and professional lives of many and significantly impacted demand for the transportation fuels we manufacture,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Michael J. Hennigan. “In addressing these challenges, first and foremost, we are focused on the health and safety of our employees, our customers, and the communities where we operate. We are grateful for everyone working on the front lines of this pandemic and are proud to do our part by contributing supplies to those affected by this crisis. These are unprecedented times, leading us to make prudent tactical changes for 2020. We believe these proactive steps will help maintain our financial strength, support our investment-grade credit rating, and enhance the through-cycle resiliency of our business.”
The company announced the following actions in response to the COVID-19 environment:
Consolidated capital spending reductions of $1.4 billion, or approximately 30%, which takes expected spending levels down to $3.0 billion for 2020. The reductions are planned across all segments of the business, including: $250 million in refining; $770 million in midstream, which includes MPLX; $250 million in retail; and $80 million in corporate. Remaining capital spend primarily relates to growth projects that are already in progress or spending that supports the safe and reliable operation of our facilities.

Refining & Marketing (R&M)
R&M segment loss from operations was $622 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared to a loss from operations of $334 million for the first quarter of 2019. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in R&M earnings was primarily due to lower blended crack spreads, lower sweet differentials, and higher planned turnaround expenses.
Segment adjusted EBITDA was $154 million in the first quarter of 2020, versus $279 million for the first quarter of 2019. Segment adjusted EBITDA excludes refinery planned turnaround costs, which totaled $329 million in the first quarter of 2020 and $186 million in the first quarter of 2019.
R&M margin was $11.30 per barrel for the first quarter of 2020. Crude capacity utilization was 91%, resulting in total throughputs of 3.0 million barrels per day, and clean product yield was 83%.
Retail
Retail segment income from operations was $519 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared with $170 million for the first quarter of 2019. Segment EBITDA was $644 million in the first quarter of 2020, versus $296 million for the first quarter of 2019. The increase in quarterly results was primarily due to higher fuel margins, partially offset by lower fuel volume.
Retail fuel margin increased to 32.91 cents per gallon in the first quarter of 2020, from 17.15 cents per gallon in the first quarter of 2019. Same-store merchandise sales increased by 0.7% year-over-year and same-store gasoline sales volume decreased by 8.3% year-over-year.
Midstream
Midstream segment income from operations, which primarily reflects the results of MPLX, was $905 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared with $908 million for the first quarter of 2019.
Segment EBITDA was $1.3 billion in the first quarter of 2020, versus $1.2 billion for the first quarter of 2019. Strong performance in the midstream business was driven by stable, fee-based earnings as well as contributions from organic growth projects.
Items Not Allocated to Segments and Other
Items not allocated to segments totaled $12.6 billion of expense in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $75 million in the first quarter of 2019. First quarter 2020 results include a $3.2 billion lower of cost or market inventory charge; $9.1 billion of impairment expense related to goodwill, equity method investments, and long-lived assets; as well as $35 million of costs incurred in connection with the Speedway separation, midstream strategic review, and other related activities.
The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 was 16%, primarily due to the effect of non-tax deductible goodwill impairments.

Financial Position and Liquidity
As of March 31, 2020, the company had $1.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents (excluding MPLX’s cash and cash equivalents of $57 million), $3 billion available under a five-year bank revolving credit facility, $1 billion available under a 364-day bank revolving credit facility, and $750 million available under its trade receivables securitization facility. MPC drew $2 billion on the five-year bank revolving credit facility in the first quarter of 2020. This borrowing was undertaken to provide financial flexibility given the recent commodity price downturn and the significant working capital impact associated with the decline in crude oil prices. The company has made borrowings to manage the impact of working capital in the past and expects to do so from time to time in the future.
In mid-April, the company borrowed an incremental $1.5 billion on the five-year bank revolving credit facility. In late April, the company issued $2.5 billion of senior notes. Net proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding on the five-year revolving credit facility. Also in late April, the company added an additional $1 billion 364-day revolver.
As of May 5, 2020, the company had total credit capacity, excluding MPLX, of $7.5 billion, comprised of $5 billion on the five-year bank revolving credit facility, $2 billion under two 364-day bank revolving credit facilities, and $517 million under a trade receivables securitization facility. Of this amount, $6.75 billion is undrawn and available.

Strategic and Operations Update
During the quarter, the company announced the unanimous decision of its Board of Directors to maintain MPC's current midstream structure, with the company remaining the general partner of MPLX. MPC continues to target fourth quarter 2020 for the completion of the separation of Speedway, however timing could change given the COVID-19 related impacts to the business environment and access to capital markets.
Consistent with MPC’s midstream strategy of developing long-haul pipelines and other logistics solutions, the company progressed several projects during the quarter, including the Wink-to-Webster crude oil pipeline, the Whistler natural gas pipeline, and the reversal of the Capline crude pipeline. Each of these projects is backed by minimum volume commitments from customers.
In addition, the Gray Oak pipeline began full service on April 1, 2020. The Gray Oak pipeline connects to multiple terminals, including the South Texas Gateway terminal, which is expected to start up in the third quarter of 2020. MPC owns a 25% interest in both the Gray Oak pipeline and the South Texas Gateway terminal.
In keeping with the company’s retail strategy of driving merchandise growth and operating cost efficiencies, Speedway continues to expand its brand through store conversions, completing 39 store conversions in the quarter prior to suspending activities due to impacts from COVID-19.
In refining, growth capital spend is primarily focused on high-return projects that are in progress or spending that supports the safe and reliable operation of our facilities. At Garyville, the second phase of the coker project was completed in the first quarter of 2020. Construction continues on the Dickinson Renewable Diesel project, which remains on schedule for planned completion in late 2020. The project will convert the Dickinson refinery into a 12,000 barrel per day biorefinery capable of producing renewable diesel from corn and soybean oil. MPC intends to sell the renewable diesel into the California market to comply with the California Low Carbon Fuel Standard.

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) 
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we adjusted our income (loss) before income taxes to exclude the adjustments listed above and applied a federal and state statutory income tax rate of 24%. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we generally applied a combined federal and state statutory income tax rate of 24% to the adjustments to net income (loss) attributable to MPC.
(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.

Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital
Operating cash flow before changes in working capital is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operations less changes in current receivables, inventories, current accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the fair value of derivative instruments and right of use assets and operating lease liabilities. We believe operating cash flow before changes in working capital is useful as it is indicative of cash received or used for operations based on current operating conditions without the effects of working capital account fluctuations that result from commodity price changes, timing of cash collections, inventory purchases or accounts payable payments as compared to the prior year end reporting period.

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, items not allocated to segment results and other items shown in the table below. 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.
