"Our performance this quarter reflects in large part the strategic expansion and
optimization of our refining system along with favorable market conditions,"
said MPC President and Chief Executive Officer Gary R. Heminger. The first
quarter of 2013 marks the first full quarter since completion of MPC's Detroit
Heavy Oil Upgrade Project (DHOUP). In addition, MPC finalized the acquisition of
the Galveston Bay refinery and related assets on Feb. 1.
Heminger highlighted the performance of the Detroit refinery, saying, "Since
bringing the new units online and quickly reaching the design capacity, the
DHOUP expansion has provided our system with greater flexibility to refine
larger volumes of price-advantaged crudes, including Canadian heavy."
"Our Galveston Bay refinery is well positioned on the Texas Gulf Coast to
process growing supplies of North American crude oil," Heminger added. "With its
array of complex processing units, we continue to be enthusiastic about our
prospects to enhance margins and further leverage dynamic market trends through
this strategic acquisition."
Heminger also noted that Speedway had a strong quarter, primarily due to higher
fuel margins and additional revenue from stores acquired last year.
MPC continues to balance investments in the business with returning capital to
shareholders. During the first quarter, the company returned $547 million to
shareholders through share repurchases and the payment of $116 million of
dividends. At the end of the first quarter, a total of $2.2 billion remained
under an existing share repurchase authorization.
As MPLX LP (MPLX) announced today, it will acquire an additional 5 percent
interest in MPLX Pipe Line Holdings LP from a subsidiary of MPC for $100 million
on May 1. This will bring MPLX's interest to 56 percent from the 51 percent
interest it held since its initial public offering (IPO) in October 2012.
Heminger noted this is the first drop-down following the IPO and said this
transaction, and the increase in MPLX's quarterly distribution announced earlier
today, demonstrate MPC's commitment to support the growth of MPLX.
Segment Results
Total income from operations was $1.16 billion in the first quarter of 2013,
compared with $956 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Income from operations $ 1,156 $ 956
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Refining & Marketing
Refining & Marketing segment income from operations was $1.11 billion in the
first quarter of 2013, compared with $943 million in the first quarter of 2012.
The increase was primarily due to higher refined product production and sales
volumes, attributable in large part to the acquisition of the Galveston Bay
refinery on Feb. 1, 2013. Refining & Marketing's refined product sales volumes
were 1.88 million barrels per day (bpd) in the first quarter of 2013, compared
with 1.53 million bpd in the first quarter of 2012. The favorable production and
sales volumes impact was partially offset by a slight decrease in the Refining &
Marketing gross margin, which was $7.92 per barrel in the first quarter of
2013, compared with $8.36 per barrel in the first quarter of 2012. MPC's
benchmark Light Louisiana Sweet (LLS) crack spread was higher in the first
quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012. However, MPC experienced
higher operating and turnaround costs in the first quarter of 2013 compared to
the first quarter of 2012. In addition, MPC's average crude oil acquisition
discount narrowed compared to LLS in the first quarter of 2013.

Speedway
Speedway segment income from operations was $67 million in the first quarter of
2013, compared with $50 million in the first quarter of 2012. The $17 million
increase was primarily the result of a higher gasoline and distillates gross
margin and a higher merchandise gross margin, partially offset by higher
expenses associated with the increase in the number of stores operated. Speedway
gasoline and distillates gross margin per gallon averaged 13.01 cents in the
first quarter of 2013, compared with 10.96 cents in the first quarter of 2012.

Pipeline Transportation
Pipeline Transportation segment income from operations, including 100 percent of
MPLX's operations, was $51 million in the first quarter of 2013, compared with
$42 million in the first quarter of 2012. The increase in segment income was
primarily due to an increase in transportation revenue and pipeline affiliate
income, partially offset by an increase in mechanical integrity and depreciation
expenses.

Corporate Items
Corporate and other unallocated expenses of $67 million in the first quarter of
2013 were $12 million lower than in the first quarter of 2012. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in pension expenses resulting from a pension plan
amendment adopted in the second quarter of 2012.
Strong Financial Position and Liquidity
On March 31, 2013, the company had $4.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents, an
unused $2.5 billion revolving credit agreement and a $1 billion unused trade
receivables securitization facility. The company's credit facilities and cash
position should provide it with sufficient flexibility to meet its day-to-day
operational needs and continue its balanced approach to investing in the
business and returning capital to shareholders. As of March 31, 2013, the
company's strong financial position was further reflected by its debt-to-total-
capital ratio of 22 percent.
