Valero Energy Corporation (NYSE: VLO, “Valero”) today reported net income attributable to Valero stockholders of $1.3 billion, or $3.07 per share, for the second quarter of 2020 compared to net income of $612 million, or $1.47 per share, for the second quarter of 2019. Excluding the adjustments shown in the accompanying earnings release tables, adjusted net loss attributable to Valero stockholders was $504 million, or $1.25 per share, for the second quarter of 2020, compared to second quarter 2019 adjusted net income attributable to Valero stockholders of $665 million, or $1.60 per share. Second quarter 2020 adjusted results exclude the benefit from an after-tax lower of cost or market, or LCM, inventory valuation adjustment of $1.8 billion.
Refining
The refining segment reported $1.8 billion of operating income for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $1.0 billion for the second quarter of 2019. Excluding the LCM inventory valuation adjustment, the second quarter 2020 adjusted operating loss was $383 million. Refinery throughput volumes averaged 2.3 million barrels per day in the second quarter of 2020, which was 647 thousand barrels per day lower than the second quarter of 2019.
“While the impact of the pandemic and the ensuing global economic downturn so far this year has been significant, we saw a rapid recovery in demand for refined products as we moved through the quarter,” said Joe Gorder, Valero Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Renewable Diesel
The renewable diesel segment reported $129 million of operating income for the second quarter of 2020 compared to $77 million for the second quarter of 2019. After adjusting for the retroactive blender’s tax credit, renewable diesel operating income was $145 million for the second quarter of 2019. Renewable diesel sales volumes averaged 795 thousand gallons per day in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 26 thousand gallons per day versus the second quarter of 2019.
Ethanol
The ethanol segment reported $91 million of operating income for the second quarter of 2020, compared to $7 million for the second quarter of 2019. Excluding the LCM inventory valuation adjustment, the second quarter 2020 adjusted operating loss was $20 million. Ethanol production volumes averaged 2.3 million gallons per day in the second quarter of 2020, which was 2.2 million gallons per day lower than the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in adjusted operating income was attributed primarily to lower margins resulting from lower ethanol prices and lower throughput.
Corporate and Other
General and administrative expenses were $169 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $199 million in the second quarter of 2019. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2020 was 20 percent, which was affected by the results of certain of our international operations that are taxed at rates that are lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate.
Investing and Financing Activities
Capital investments totaled $503 million in the second quarter of 2020, of which $240 million was for sustaining the business, including costs for turnarounds, catalysts and regulatory compliance. Excluding our partner’s 50 percent share of Diamond Green Diesel’s (DGD) capital investments, Valero’s capital investments were approximately $448 million.
Valero returned $400 million to stockholders through dividends in the second quarter of 2020, resulting in a year-to-date payout of 96 percent of adjusted net cash provided by operating activities.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $736 million in the second quarter of 2020. Included in this amount was a $629 million favorable impact from working capital, as well as our joint venture partner’s share of DGD’s net cash provided by operating activities, excluding changes in its working capital. Excluding these items, adjusted net cash provided by operating activities was $38 million.
Valero continues to target a long-term total payout ratio between 40 and 50 percent of adjusted net cash provided by operating activities. Valero defines total payout ratio as the sum of dividends and stock buybacks divided by net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for changes in working capital and DGD’s net cash provided by operating activities, excluding changes in its working capital, attributable to our joint venture partner’s ownership interest in DGD.
Liquidity and Financial Position
Valero ended the second quarter of 2020 with $12.7 billion of total debt and finance lease obligations and $2.3 billion of cash and cash equivalents. The debt to capitalization ratio, net of cash and cash equivalents, was 33 percent as of June 30, 2020.
Strategic Update
Valero expects to invest approximately $2.1 billion of capital in 2020, of which approximately 60 percent is for sustaining the business and approximately 40 percent is for growth projects. Approximately 30 percent of Valero’s 2020 growth capital is allocated to expanding the renewables business.
The new St. Charles Alkylation Unit, which is designed to convert low-value feedstocks into a premium alkylate product, is on track to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year. The Diamond Pipeline expansion and the Pembroke Cogen project are expected to be completed in 2021 and the Port Arthur Coker project is expected to be completed in 2023.
Valero and its joint venture partner in DGD continue to pursue growth in the low-carbon renewable fuel business. The DGD plant expansion is expected to be completed in 2021, subject to COVID-19 related delays, and as previously announced, DGD continues to make progress on the advanced engineering and development cost review for a potential new 400 million gallons per day renewable diesel plant at Valero’s Port Arthur, Texas facility. If the project is approved, operations are expected to commence in 2024, increasing DGD production capacity to over 1.1 billion gallons annually.
“As we focus on the path to recovery with improving product demand, we remain steadfast in the execution of our strategy, pursuing excellence in our operations, investing for earnings growth with lower volatility and honoring our commitment to stockholder returns,” said Gorder. “This uncompromising focus on capital discipline and execution has served us well in the current pandemic-imposed downturn, and it should continue to position Valero well through the recovery and beyond.”
Conference Call
Valero’s senior management will hold a conference call at 10 a.m. ET today to discuss this earnings release and to provide an update on operations and strategy.

Safe-Harbor Statement
Statements contained in this release that state the company’s or management’s expectations or predictions of the future are forward-looking statements intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words “believe,” “expect,” “should,” “estimates,” “intend,” “target,” “will,” “plans,” and other similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. It is important to note that actual results could differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements based on numerous factors, including those outside of the company’s control, such as delays in construction timing and other factors, including but not limited to the impacts of COVID-19. For more information concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed or forecasted, see Valero’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available on Valero’s website at www.valero.com.
COVID-19 Disclosure
The global pandemic has significantly reduced global economic activity and resulted in airlines dramatically cutting back on flights and a decrease in motor vehicle use at a time when seasonal driving patterns typically result in an increase of consumer demand for gasoline. As a result, there has also been a decline in the demand for, and thus also the market prices of, crude oil and certain of our products, particularly our refined petroleum products. Many uncertainties remain with respect to COVID-19, including its resulting economic effects and any future recovery, and we are unable to predict the ultimate economic impacts from COVID-19, how quickly national economies can recover once the pandemic subsides, or whether any recovery will ultimately experience a reversal or other setbacks. However, the adverse impact of the economic effects on us has been and will likely continue to be significant. We believe we have proactively addressed many of the known impacts of COVID-19 to the extent possible and will strive to continue to do so, but there can be no guarantee that these measures will be fully effective. For more information, see our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTES TO EARNINGS RELEASE TABLES | |
(a) | Cost of materials and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 includes a benefit of $76 million and $155 million, respectively, related to the blender’s tax credit attributable to volumes blended during those periods. The legislation authorizing the credit through December 31, 2022 was passed and signed into law in December 2019, and that legislation also applied retroactively to volumes blended during 2019 (2019 blender’s tax credit). The entire 2019 blender’s tax credit was recognized by us in December 2019 because the law was enacted in that month, but the benefit attributable to volumes blended during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $72 million and $149 million, respectively. |
The above-mentioned pre-tax benefits are attributable to our reportable segments and stockholders as follows: | |

(b) | The market value of our inventories accounted for under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method fell below their historical cost on an aggregate basis as of March 31, 2020. As a result, we recorded an LCM inventory valuation adjustment of $2.5 billion in March 2020. The market value of our LIFO inventories improved as of June 30, 2020 due to an increase in market prices, which resulted in a reversal of $2.2 billion of the $2.5 billion LCM adjustment recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2020. Consequently, our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 reflect a net LCM inventory valuation adjustment of $294 million. | ||
| Of the $2.2 billion benefit recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2020, $2.1 billion and $111 million is attributable to our refining and ethanol segments, respectively. Of the $294 million adjustment recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2020, $277 million and $17 million is attributable to our refining and ethanol segments, respectively. | |||
(c) | “Other income, net” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 includes a $22 million charge from the early redemption of $850 million of our 6.125 percent senior notes due February 1, 2020. | ||
(d) | Common equivalent shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as the effect of including such shares would be antidilutive. | ||
(e) | Common equivalent shares have been excluded in the computation of adjusted loss per common share – assuming dilution for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as the effect of including such shares is antidilutive. Weighted-average shares outstanding – assuming dilution used to calculate adjusted loss per common share – assuming dilution is 406 million shares. | ||
(f) | We use certain financial measures (as noted below) in the earnings release tables and accompanying earnings release that are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are considered to be non-GAAP measures. | ||
| We have defined these non-GAAP measures and believe they are useful to the external users of our financial statements, including industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies. We believe these measures are useful to assess our ongoing financial performance because, when reconciled to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measures, they provide improved comparability between periods after adjusting for certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance and that may obscure our underlying business results and trends. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measures nor should they be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies because we may define them differently, which diminishes their utility. | |||
| Non-GAAP measures are as follows: | |||
◦ | Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Valero Energy Corporation stockholders is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Valero Energy Corporation stockholders adjusted to reflect the items noted below, along with their related income tax effect. We have adjusted for these items because we believe that they are not indicative of our core operating performance and that their adjustment results in an important measure of our ongoing financial performance to better assess our underlying business results and trends. The basis for our belief with respect to each adjustment is provided below. | ||
– | LCM inventory valuation adjustment – The LCM inventory valuation adjustment, which is described in note (b), is the result of the market value of our inventories as of June 30, 2020 falling below their historical cost, with the decline in market value resulting from the decline in crude oil and product market prices associated with the negative economic impacts from COVID-19. The adjustment obscures our financial performance because it does not result from decisions made by us; therefore, we have excluded the adjustment from adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Valero Energy Corporation stockholders. | ||
– | 2019 blender’s tax credit attributable to Valero Energy Corporation stockholders – The 2019 blender’s tax credit was recognized by us in December 2019, but it is attributable to volumes blended throughout 2019. Therefore, the adjustment reflects the portion of the 2019 blender’s tax credit that is associated with volumes blended during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. See note (a) for additional details. | ||
– | Loss on early redemption of debt – The penalty and other expenses incurred in connection with the early redemption of our 6.125 percent senior notes due February 1, 2020 (see note (c)) are not associated with the ongoing costs of our borrowing and financing activities. | ||
◦ | Adjusted earnings (loss) per common share – assuming dilution is defined as adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Valero Energy Corporation stockholders divided by the number of weighted-average shares outstanding in the applicable period, assuming dilution (see note (e)). | ||
◦ | Refining margin is defined as refining operating income (loss) adjusted to reflect the 2019 blender’s tax credit (see note (a)), and excluding the LCM inventory valuation adjustment (see note (b)), operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization expense), depreciation and amortization expense, and other operating expenses. We believe refining margin is an important measure of our refining segment’s operating and financial performance as it is the most comparable measure to the industry’s market reference product margins, which are used by industry analysts, investors, and others to evaluate our performance. | ||
◦ | Renewable diesel margin is defined as renewable diesel operating income adjusted to reflect the 2019 blender’s tax credit (see note (a)), and excluding operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization expense) and depreciation and amortization expense. We believe renewable diesel margin is an important measure of our renewable diesel segment’s operating and financial performance as it is the most comparable measure to the industry’s market reference product margins, which are used by industry analysts, investors, and others to evaluate our performance. | ||
◦ | Ethanol margin is defined as ethanol operating income (loss) excluding the LCM inventory valuation adjustment (see note (b)), operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization expense), depreciation and amortization expense, and other operating expenses. We believe ethanol margin is an important measure of our ethanol segment’s operating and financial performance as it is the most comparable measure to the industry’s market reference product margins, which are used by industry analysts, investors, and others to evaluate our performance. | ||
◦ | Adjusted refining operating income (loss) is defined as refining segment operating income (loss) adjusted to reflect the 2019 blender’s tax credit (see note (a)), and excluding the LCM inventory valuation adjustment (see note (b)) and other operating expenses. We believe adjusted refining operating income (loss) is an important measure of our refining segment’s operating and financial performance because it excludes items that are not indicative of that segment’s core operating performance. | ||
◦ | Adjusted renewable diesel operating income is defined as renewable diesel segment operating income adjusted to reflect the 2019 blender’s tax credit (see note (a)). We believe this is an important measure of our renewable diesel segment’s operating and financial performance because it excludes items that are not indicative of that segment’s core operating performance. | ||
◦ | Adjusted ethanol operating income (loss) is defined as ethanol segment operating income (loss) excluding the LCM inventory valuation adjustment (see note (b)) and other operating expenses. We believe this is an important measure of our ethanol segment’s operating and financial performance because it excludes items that are not indicative of that segment’s core operating performance. | ||
◦ | Adjusted net cash provided by operating activities is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities excluding the items noted below. We believe adjusted net cash provided by operating activities is an important measure of our ongoing financial performance to better assess our ability to generate cash to fund our investing and financing activities. The basis for our belief with respect to each excluded item is provided below. | ||
– | Changes in current assets and current liabilities – Current assets net of current liabilities represents our operating liquidity. We believe that the change in our operating liquidity from period to period does not represent cash generated by our operations that is available to fund our investing and financing activities. | ||
– | DGD’s adjusted net cash provided by operating activities attributable to our joint venture partner’s ownership interest in DGD – We are a 50/50 joint venture partner in DGD and consolidate DGD’s financial statements; as a result, all of DGD’s net cash provided by operating activities (or operating cash flow) is included in our consolidated net cash provided by operating activities. | ||
DGD’s partners use DGD’s operating cash flow (excluding changes in its current assets and current liabilities) to fund its capital investments rather than distribute all of that cash to themselves. Nevertheless, DGD’s operating cash flow is effectively attributable to each partner and only 50 percent of DGD’s operating cash flow should be attributed to our net cash provided by operating activities. Therefore, we have adjusted our net cash provided by operating activities for the portion of DGD’s operating cash flow attributable to our joint venture partner’s ownership interest because we believe that it more accurately reflects the operating cash flow available to us to fund our investing and financing activities. The adjustment is calculated as follows (in millions): | |||

(g) | The refining segment regions reflected herein contain the following refineries: U.S. Gulf Coast- Corpus Christi East, Corpus Christi West, Houston, Meraux, Port Arthur, St. Charles, Texas City, and Three Rivers Refineries; U.S. Mid-Continent- Ardmore, McKee, and Memphis Refineries; North Atlantic- Pembroke and Quebec City Refineries; and U.S. West Coast- Benicia and Wilmington Refineries. |
(h) | Primarily includes petrochemicals, gas oils, No. 6 fuel oil, petroleum coke, sulfur, and asphalt. |
(i) | Valero uses certain operating statistics (as noted below) in the earnings release tables and the accompanying earnings release to evaluate performance between comparable periods. Different companies may calculate them in different ways. |
All per barrel of throughput, per gallon of sales, and per gallon of production amounts are calculated by dividing the associated dollar amount by the throughput volumes, sales volumes, and production volumes for the period, as applicable. | |
Throughput volumes, sales volumes, and production volumes are calculated by multiplying throughput volumes per day, sales volumes per day, and production volumes per day (as provided in the accompanying tables), respectively, by the number of days in the applicable period. We use throughput volumes, sales volumes, and production volumes for the refining segment, renewable diesel segment, and ethanol segment, respectively, due to their general use by others who operate facilities similar to those included in our segments. We believe the use of such volumes results in per unit amounts that are most representative of the product margins generated and the operating costs incurred as a result of our operation of those facilities. |
