DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
HollyFrontier Corporation (NYSE:HFC) (“HollyFrontier” or the “Company”)
today reported first quarter net income attributable to HollyFrontier
stockholders of $21.3 million or $0.12 per diluted share for the quarter
ended March 31, 2016, compared to $226.9 million or $1.16 per diluted
share for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Included in the current
quarter results was a non-cash inventory valuation adjustment that
increased after-tax earnings by $37.0 million, or $0.21 per share.
For the first quarter, net income attributable to our stockholders,
excluding the lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustment,
decreased by $238.0 million compared to the same period of 2015,
principally reflecting lower refining margins. Production levels
averaged approximately 416,000 barrels per day ("BPD") and crude oil
charges averaged 391,000 BPD for the current quarter. On a per barrel
basis, consolidated refinery gross margin was $7.59 per produced barrel,
a 55% decrease compared to $16.69 for the first quarter of 2015. Total
operating expenses for the quarter were $252.6 million compared to
$263.6 million for the first quarter of last year, and refining
operating expenses averaged $5.77 per produced barrel sold compared to
$5.87 per barrel for the same period of 2015.
HollyFrontier’s President & CEO, George Damiris, commented, “First
quarter earnings reflect seasonally weak industry refining margins,
which were 40% below the levels for the comparable period last year.
Gasoline margins continue to strengthen, up between 40% and 70% versus
first quarter levels. I expect gasoline margins to strengthen further
and remain encouraged by the strong vehicle miles traveled data. We
remain competitively positioned within the refining landscape given our
gasoline weighting, crude slate flexibility and continued progress on
the execution of our business improvement plan."
For the first quarter of 2016, net cash provided by operations totaled
$6.6 million. During the period, we declared a dividend of $0.33 per
share to shareholders totaling $58.6 million and spent $133.4 million in
stock repurchases. At March 31, 2016, our combined balance of cash and
short-term investments totaled $111.0 million and our consolidated debt
was $1,308.2 million. Our debt, exclusive of Holly Energy Partners'
debt, which is nonrecourse to HollyFrontier, was $246.2 million at
March 31, 2016.
The Company has scheduled a webcast conference call for today, May 4,
2016, at 8:30 AM Eastern Time to discuss first quarter financial
results. This webcast may be accessed at: https://event.webcasts.com/starthere.jsp?ei=1098799.
An audio archive of this webcast will be available using the above noted
link through May 18, 2016.

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 HFC 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. HFC 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, terminals,
tankage, loading rack facilities and refinery process units 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 (an HEP consolidated subsidiary), 50% ownership interests in
Frontier Pipeline and Osage Pipeline and a 25% ownership interest in SLC
Pipeline. 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.

Crude charge represents the barrels per day of crude oil processed
at our refineries.
|
(2)
|
|
Refinery throughput represents the barrels per day of crude and
other refinery feedstocks input to the crude units and other
conversion units at our refineries.
|

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.

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 sold (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.
|
(2)
|
|
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.
