DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
HollyFrontier Corporation (NYSE:HFC) (“HollyFrontier” or the “Company”)
today reported third quarter net income attributable to HollyFrontier
stockholders of $196.3 million or $1.04 per diluted share for the
quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to $175.0 million or $0.88
per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Included in
the current quarter results was a non-cash inventory valuation charge
that decreased after-tax earnings by $146.3 million, or $0.78 per share.
Excluding this inventory valuation charge, after-tax earnings was $342.6
million, or $1.82 per share.
For the third quarter, net income attributable to our stockholders,
excluding the lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustment,
increased by $167.6 million compared to the same period of 2014,
principally reflecting improved margins and strong refining operations
across our system. Crude oil charges averaged 460,000 barrels per day
("BPD"), a new quarterly record since the HollyFrontier merger in July
2011. Production levels averaged approximately 474,000 BPD. On a per
barrel basis, consolidated refinery gross margin was $19.85 per produced
barrel, a 27% increase compared to $15.59 for the third quarter of 2014.
Total operating expenses for the quarter were $265.4 million compared to
$281.0 million for the third quarter of last year, and refining
operating expenses averaged $5.46 per produced barrel sold compared to
$6.39 per barrel for the same period of 2014.
HollyFrontier’s President & CEO, Mike Jennings, commented, “Third
quarter earnings reflect solid refining margins and impressive
operational reliability across our refining system. We reported a second
consecutive quarterly record in terms of utilization rate, averaging
460,000 BPD of crude throughput. Strong refining operations, improved
margin realization and lower operating costs generated a greater than
100% increase in earnings per share, excluding the current quarter
inventory charge, when compared to the third quarter of 2014.
Furthermore, we continued to execute our capital allocation plan,
returning approximately $164.0 million to shareholders through dividends
and share repurchases during the quarter.”
For the third quarter of 2015, net cash provided by operations totaled
$333.4 million. We executed $102.0 million in share repurchases and
completed a $300.0 million accelerated share repurchase program
initiated in May. Our shares outstanding as of September 30, 2015 were
approximately 185.0 million, down from approximately 196.0 million at
December 31, 2014. Additionally, we declared and paid a $0.33 regular
dividend to shareholders in the third quarter totaling approximately
$62.0 million. At September 30, 2015, our combined balance of cash and
short-term investments totaled $626.8 million and our consolidated debt
was $982.8 million. Our debt, exclusive of Holly Energy Partners' debt,
which is nonrecourse to HollyFrontier, was $31.8 million at
September 30, 2015. We had no cash borrowings or outstanding principal
under our credit facility during the quarter.
The Company has scheduled a webcast conference call for today,
November 5, 2015, at 8:30 AM Eastern Time to discuss third quarter
financial results. This webcast may be accessed at: https://event.webcasts.com/starthere.jsp?ei=1079891.
An audio archive of this webcast will be available using the above noted

Segment Information
Our operations are organized into two reportable segments, Refining and
HEP. Our operations that are not included in the Refining and HEP
segments are included in Corporate and Other. Intersegment transactions
are eliminated in our consolidated financial statements and are included
in Consolidations and Eliminations. The Refining segment includes the
operations of our El Dorado, Tulsa, Navajo, Cheyenne and Woods Cross
refineries and NK Asphalt (aggregated as a reportable segment). Refining
activities involve the purchase and refining of crude oil and wholesale
and branded marketing of refined products, such as gasoline, diesel fuel
and jet fuel. These petroleum products are primarily marketed in the
Mid-Continent, Southwest and Rocky Mountain regions of the United
States. Additionally, the Refining segment includes specialty lubricant
products produced at our Tulsa refineries that are marketed throughout
North America and are distributed in Central and South America. NK
Asphalt operates various asphalt terminals in Arizona, New Mexico and
Oklahoma.
The HEP segment involves all of the operations of HEP, a consolidated
variable interest entity, which owns and operates logistics assets
consisting of petroleum product and crude oil pipelines and terminal,
tankage and loading rack facilities in the Mid-Continent, Southwest and
Rocky Mountain regions of the United States. The HEP segment also
includes a 75% interest in the UNEV Pipeline (a consolidated subsidiary
of HEP) and 50% and 25% ownership interests in Frontier Pipeline and SLC
Pipeline, respectively. Revenues from the HEP segment are earned through
transactions with unaffiliated parties for pipeline transportation,
rental and terminalling operations as well as revenues relating to
pipeline transportation services provided for our refining operations.
Due to certain basis differences, our reported amounts for the HEP
segment may not agree to amounts reported in HEP's periodic public
filings.

Reconciliations to Amounts Reported Under Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles
Reconciliations of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization (“EBITDA”) to amounts reported under generally accepted
accounting principles in financial statements.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which we
refer to as EBITDA, is calculated as net income attributable to
HollyFrontier stockholders plus (i) interest expense, net of interest
income, (ii) income tax provision, and (iii) depreciation and
amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation provided for under accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States; however, the amounts
included in the EBITDA calculation are derived from amounts included in
our consolidated financial statements. EBITDA should not be considered
as an alternative to net income or operating income as an indication of
our operating performance or as an alternative to operating cash flow as
a measure of liquidity. EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is presented here
because it is a widely used financial indicator used by investors and
analysts to measure performance. EBITDA is also used by our management
for internal analysis and as a basis for financial covenants.
Set forth below is our calculation of EBITDA.

$7.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014,
respectively.
Reconciliations of refinery operating information (non-GAAP
performance measures) to amounts reported under generally accepted
accounting principles in financial statements.
Refinery gross margin and net operating margin are non-GAAP performance
measures that are used by our management and others to compare our
refining performance to that of other companies in our industry. We
believe these margin measures are helpful to investors in evaluating our
refining performance on a relative and absolute basis.
Refinery gross margin per barrel is the difference between average net
sales price and average cost of products per barrel of produced refined
products. Net operating margin per barrel is the difference between
refinery gross margin and refinery operating expenses per barrel of
produced refined products. These two margins do not include the non-cash
effects of lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments or
depreciation and amortization. Each of these component performance
measures can be reconciled directly to our consolidated statements of
income.
Other companies in our industry may not calculate these performance
measures in the same manner.
Refinery Gross and Net Operating Margins
Below are reconciliations to our consolidated statements of income for
(i) net sales, cost of products (exclusive of lower of cost or market
inventory valuation adjustment) and operating expenses, in each case
averaged per produced barrel sold, and (ii) net operating margin and
refinery gross margin. Due to rounding of reported numbers, some amounts
may not calculate exactly.

We purchase finished products to facilitate delivery to certain
locations or to meet delivery commitments.

|
We purchase crude oil that at times exceeds the supply needs of
our refineries. Quantities in excess of our needs are sold at
market prices to purchasers of crude oil that are recorded on a
gross basis with the sales price recorded as revenues and the
corresponding acquisition cost as inventory and then upon sale as
cost of products sold. Additionally, at times we enter into
buy/sell exchanges of crude oil with certain parties to facilitate
the delivery of quantities to certain locations that are netted at
cost.
