FINDLAY, Ohio, Feb. 3, 2016 - Marathon Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: MPC) today
reported 2015 fourth-quarter earnings of $187 million, or $0.35 per diluted
share, compared with $798 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, in the fourth
quarter of 2014. Fourth-quarter 2015 earnings include a pretax charge of $370
million, or $0.44 per diluted share, to value inventories at lower of cost or
market (LCM). The results of MarkWest are included from the Dec. 4, 2015, merger
date.
Earnings were $2.85 billion, or $5.26 per diluted share, for the full-year
2015, compared with $2.52 billion, or $4.39 per diluted share, in 2014.
"In addition to our strong financial and operational results, we also made
tremendous progress on our strategic objectives of growing the more stable cash-
flow segments of our business and enhancing our refining margins," said MPC
President and Chief Executive Officer Gary R. Heminger. "Product price
realizations and continued strong gasoline demand supported crack spreads in the
fourth quarter. In addition, Speedway continued its strong performance during
the fourth quarter, finishing the year with segment income of $673 million and
nearly $1 billion of EBITDA [earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization]," Heminger said. He also added that Speedway LLC, MPC's retail
division, has substantially completed the planned conversions of its new East
Coast and Southeast retail locations to the Speedway brand well ahead of
schedule. "The acquisition of these retail locations has exceeded our
expectations and has been a tremendous value driver for MPC."
The merger of MarkWest Energy Partners, L.P., and MPC's sponsored master limited
partnership (MLP) MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX) on Dec. 4, 2015, was a significant
accomplishment in the company's strategy, highlighted Heminger. "This
combination creates a diversified, large-cap MLP with compelling long-term
growth opportunities. MPLX creates substantial value to MPC shareholders through
its general partner interest." He noted that MPC has offered to contribute its
inland marine business to MPLX at a supportive valuation in exchange for MPLX
equity. "This drop-down of additional logistics assets to the partnership
further diversifies its high-quality earnings stream. While MPC takes into
consideration the capital allocation needs of both companies in determining
sponsor support, the marine transaction demonstrates the flexible ways in which
MPC can provide support to MPLX." The transaction is expected to close in the
second quarter of 2016, pending requisite approvals.
Heminger noted that the continued decline in commodity prices, and the market's
increasing belief that these conditions will persist for some period of time,
has resulted in a challenging valuation and a higher yield environment within
the MLP space. "Given current market conditions, more modest growth in volumes
of natural gas and natural gas liquids, the increase in MPLX's yield and the
impacts to its valuation, MPLX is now forecasting distribution growth of 12 to
15 percent for 2016, which is among the highest for large-cap, diversified
MLPs," Heminger said, also noting that MPLX expects to provide 2017 distribution
growth guidance later this year.
MPC is focused on strengthening the earnings power of all aspects of its
business, with expanded, margin-enhancing investments across the enterprise. MPC
recently announced plans to invest $2 billion in the Galveston Bay refinery over
the next five years, an investment program collectively referred to as the South
Texas Asset Repositioning (STAR) program. "The investments planned as part of
the STAR program are intended to increase production of higher-value products
and improve the facility's reliability, as well as increase processing capacity.
These high-return investments will also fully integrate our Galveston Bay
refinery with our Texas City refinery, making it the second-largest refinery in
the U.S.," said Heminger. "We expect a rapid payback on the staged investments
planned for the STAR program."
Heminger stated that MPC's investments in the business are balanced with
returning capital to shareholders. Through share buyback programs and dividends,
MPC returned a total of $1.6 billion of capital to shareholders in 2015,
including $362 million during the fourth quarter. "Returning capital to our
shareholders continues to be an instrumental part of our strategy," he said,
noting that MPC has repurchased approximately 28 percent of the shares that were
outstanding when it became a standalone company. "Through disciplined, strategic
investments in our business and returning capital to shareholders, we remain
focused on the long-term value proposition for our investors."
"By optimizing our logistics and transportation network, and using the
flexibility inherent in our refining system, we continue to meet market needs
quickly and efficiently as margin opportunities present themselves," said
Heminger. "As our earnings demonstrate, our business produces strong results in
a wide variety of market conditions."
Segment Results
Following the merger of MPLX and MarkWest, the name of MPC's Pipeline
Transportation segment, which includes the operations of MPLX, was changed to
Midstream to reflect its expanded business activities. The results of MarkWest
are included from the Dec. 4, 2015, merger date.

Income from operations $ 338 $ 1,259 $ 4,692 $ 4,051
--------- ----------- ----------------------
Fourth-quarter and full-year 2015 segment results include a non-cash charge of
$370 million to value inventory at lower of cost or market. The charge reduced
our Refining & Marketing segment and Speedway segment results by $345 million
and $25 million, respectively. MPC assesses its inventory quarterly for a
potential LCM adjustment. Based on movements of refined product prices, future
adjustments could have a positive or negative effect to MPC's segment results
and earnings.
Refining & Marketing
Refining & Marketing segment income from operations was $207 million in the
fourth quarter of 2015 and $4.19 billion for full-year 2015, compared with $1.02
billion and $3.61 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014 and full-year 2014,
respectively.
The decrease in quarter-over-quarter results was primarily due to the effects of
the $345 million LCM charge and a last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory accounting
charge of approximately $45 million in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to a
LIFO benefit of approximately $240 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. In
addition, segment results were negatively impacted by the effect of lower
overall commodity prices on volumetric gains and unfavorable crude oil and
feedstock acquisition costs relative to benchmark Light Louisiana Sweet (LLS)
crude oil. These negative impacts were partially offset by higher crack spreads
and the favorable effects of changes in market structure on crude oil
acquisition prices.
The U.S. Gulf Coast (USGC) and Chicago LLS blended 6-3-2-1 crack spread
increased from $5.43 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2014 to $6.65 per
barrel in the fourth quarter of 2015, primarily due to an increase in the USGC
crack spread.
The increase in Refining & Marketing segment income from operations for full-
year 2015 compared to full-year 2014 was primarily due to higher crack spreads,
favorable effects of changes in market structure on crude oil acquisition
prices, more favorable net product price realizations compared to spot market
reference prices and lower direct operating costs. These positive impacts were
partially offset by unfavorable crude oil and feedstock acquisition costs
relative to benchmark LLS crude oil, the unfavorable effect of lower commodity
prices on volumetric gains and the LCM inventory valuation charge.
The blended 6-3-2-1 crack spread for the full year increased from $8.11 per
barrel in 2014 to $9.70 per barrel in 2015.
Speedway
Speedway segment income from operations was $135 million in the fourth quarter
of 2015 and $673 million for full-year 2015, compared with $273 million in the
fourth quarter of 2014 and $544 million for full-year 2014. The decrease in
segment income for the fourth quarter is primarily due to a lower light product
gross margin, a $25 million non-cash LCM charge and an increase in operating
expenses, partially offset by an increase in merchandise margin. Speedway's
light product margin decreased to 18.23 cents per gallon in the fourth quarter
of 2015 from 24.51 cents per gallon in the fourth quarter of 2014, which was a
record quarter.
The increase for the full-year 2015 was primarily due to the full-year benefit
from the locations acquired along the East Coast and Southeast on Sept.
30, 2014, as well as higher light product margins. Speedway's light product
margin increased to 18.23 cents per gallon in 2015 from 17.75 cents per gallon
in 2014.
Midstream
Midstream segment income from operations, which includes 100 percent of MPLX's
operations as well as other related operations, was $71 million in the fourth
quarter of 2015 and $289 million for full-year 2015, compared with $58 million
and $280 million for the fourth quarter and full-year 2014, respectively. The
increase in Midstream segment income for the fourth quarter and full-year of
2015 compared to 2014 was primarily due to the inclusion of MarkWest from the
Dec. 4, 2015, merger date, partially offset by approximately $26 million and $30
million of merger transaction costs for the fourth-quarter and full-year 2015,
respectively.
Items Not Allocated to Segments
Corporate and other unallocated expenses of $75 million in the fourth quarter of
2015 and $308 million for full-year 2015 were $7 million lower than the fourth
quarter of 2014 and $22 million higher than full-year 2014. The reduction for
the fourth quarter was primarily due to various lower corporate expenses while
the increase for the full year is largely due to a lower allocation of employee
benefit costs to the segments.
For full-year 2015, MPC recorded pretax pension settlement expenses of $4
million compared with $96 million of pretax pension settlement expenses in 2014.
Full-year 2015 unallocated expenses also included the $144 million impairment
charge recorded in the third quarter of 2015 related to the cancellation of the
ROUX project at our refinery in Garyville, La. The charge reflects the write-off
of costs capitalized on the project through Sept. 30, 2015, including front-end
engineering and long lead-time equipment.
Strong Financial Position and Liquidity
On Dec. 31, 2015, the company had $1.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, an
unused $2.5 billion revolving credit agreement and a $0.7 billion unused trade
receivables securitization facility. Availability under the trade receivables
securitization facility is a function of refined product selling prices, which
will be lower in a sustained lower price environment. The company's liquidity
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.
On Dec. 14, 2015, we completed a public offering of $1.5 billion in aggregate
principal amount of unsecured senior notes. On Dec. 21, we used approximately
$763 million of the net proceeds from this offering to fund the extinguishment
of our obligation for the $750 million aggregate principal amount of 3.5 percent
senior notes due in March of 2016, including remaining interest to maturity. As
a result, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $5 million, which is
reflected in net interest and other financial income (costs).

before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure
of financial performance presented in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other entities.
