Phillips 66 Reports 1Q 2024 Financial Results, Highlights Strategic Priorities Progress

First-Quarter Results

  • First-quarter earnings of $748 million or $1.73 per share; adjusted earnings of $822 million or $1.90 per share
  • $1.6 billion returned to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases
  • Refining operated at 92% crude utilization
  • Recently announced 10% increase to the quarterly dividend to $1.15 per common share
  • Earned industry recognition for 2023 exemplary safety performance in Midstream, Refining and Chemicals

Strategic Priorities Highlights

  • Returned $9.9 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases since July 2022
  • On track to achieve $1.4 billion of business transformation cost and sustaining capital savings by year-end 2024
  • Launched process to divest retail marketing assets in Germany and Austria
  • Commenced operations at Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex

Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX), a leading diversified and integrated downstream energy company, announced first-quarter earnings of $748 million, compared with earnings of $1.3 billion in the fourth quarter. Excluding special items of $74 million, the company had adjusted earnings of $822 million in the first quarter, compared with fourth-quarter adjusted earnings of $1.4 billion.

“In the first quarter, we progressed our strategic priorities and returned $1.6 billion to shareholders,” said Mark Lashier, president and CEO of Phillips 66. “While our crude utilization rates were strong, our results were affected by maintenance that limited our ability to make higher-value products. We were also impacted by the renewable fuels conversion at Rodeo, as well as the effect of rising commodity prices on our inventory hedge positions. The maintenance is behind us, our assets are currently running near historical highs and we are ready to meet peak summer demand.

“We recently launched a process to sell our retail marketing business in Germany and Austria, consistent with our plan to divest non-core assets. A major milestone was achieved with the startup of our Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex, positioning Phillips 66 as a world leader in renewable fuels.

“We remain committed to delivering increased value to our shareholders. We have returned $9.9 billion to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends since July 2022, on pace to meet our target of $13 billion to $15 billion by year-end 2024. Our strategic priorities put us on a clear path to achieve our $14 billion mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA target by 2025 and return over 50% of operating cash flows to shareholders.”

Midstream first-quarter 2024 pre-tax income was $554 million, compared with $756 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Results in the first quarter included a $59 million asset impairment. Fourth-quarter results included a $2 million tax benefit.

Transportation first-quarter adjusted pre-tax income was $302 million, compared with adjusted pre-tax income of $334 million in the fourth quarter. The decline mainly reflects a decrease in throughput and deficiency revenues, partially offset by seasonally lower maintenance costs.

NGL and Other adjusted pre-tax income was $306 million in the first quarter, compared with adjusted pre-tax income of $423 million in the fourth quarter. The decrease was mainly due to a decline in margins, as well as lower volumes reflecting impacts from winter storms.

In the first quarter, the fair value of the company’s investment in NOVONIX, Ltd. increased by $5 million, compared with a $3 million decrease in the fourth quarter.

The Chemicals segment reflects Phillips 66’s equity investment in Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC (CPChem). Chemicals first-quarter 2024 reported and adjusted pre-tax income was $205 million, compared with fourth-quarter 2023 reported and adjusted pre-tax income of $106 million. The increase was mainly due to higher polyethylene margins driven by improved sales prices and a decline in feedstock costs, as well as lower turnaround costs.

Global olefins and polyolefins utilization was 96% for the quarter.

Results in the first quarter included a $104 million asset impairment and a $7 million benefit related to a legal settlement. Fourth-quarter results included a $17 million tax benefit.

Adjusted pre-tax income for Refining was $228 million in the first quarter, compared with adjusted pre-tax income of $797 million in the fourth quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in realized margins driven by less favorable commercial results, inventory hedging impacts and lower Gulf Coast clean product realizations.

Refining pre-tax turnaround expense for the first quarter was $160 million, including $36 million related to the Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex. The crude utilization rate was 92%, clean product yield was 84% and market capture was 69%.

Corporate and Other first-quarter 2024 pre-tax costs were $330 million, compared with pre-tax costs of $347 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Results in the fourth quarter included restructuring costs of $50 million.

Adjusted pre-tax costs were $330 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared with $297 million in the fourth quarter. Increased costs in the first quarter were mainly due to higher net interest expense.

Financial Position, Liquidity and Return of Capital

Cash used in operations was $236 million in the first quarter. Operating cash flow was $1.2 billion, excluding $1.4 billion of working capital impacts mainly due to inventory builds. The company had net debt issuances of $802 million.

During the first quarter, Phillips 66 funded $1.2 billion of share repurchases, $448 million in dividends and $628 million of capital expenditures and investments.

As of March 31, 2024, the company had $1.6 billion of cash and cash equivalents and $3.5 billion of committed capacity available under its credit facility. The company’s consolidated debt-to-capital ratio was 40% and its net debt-to-capital ratio was 38%. The company ended the quarter with 424 million shares outstanding.

Strategic Priorities and Business Update

Phillips 66 is executing its strategic priorities to increase mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA to $14 billion by 2025 and return over 50% of operating cash flow to shareholders. Since July 2022, the company has distributed $9.9 billion through share repurchases and dividends and is on pace to achieve its $13 billion to $15 billion target by year-end 2024.

Phillips 66 plans to monetize assets that no longer fit its long-term strategy. The company is progressing the potential divestiture of its retail marketing business in Germany and Austria. Completion of dispositions is subject to market and other conditions, including customary approvals.

The company achieved $1.24 billion in run-rate cost and sustaining capital savings through business transformation as of March 31, 2024. The company is targeting $1.4 billion in run-rate savings by the end of 2024.

Phillips 66 is capturing value from its Midstream NGL wellhead-to-market strategy. The company’s increased ownership of DCP Midstream has provided an incremental $1.25 billion toward its 2025 mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA target, including approximately $250 million of synergies. The company remains focused on capturing over $400 million of run-rate commercial and operating synergies by the end of 2024.

In Chemicals, CPChem is building world-scale petrochemical facilities with a joint-venture partner on the U.S. Gulf Coast and in Ras Laffan, Qatar. Both projects are expected to start up in 2026.

In Refining, the company continues to invest in high-return, low-capital projects to improve asset reliability and market capture. Since 2022, completed projects have added over 3% to market capture based on mid-cycle pricing.

During the first quarter, Phillips 66 achieved a significant milestone with the startup of the Rodeo Renewed project. The Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex is now producing 30,000 barrels per day of renewable fuels. The facility is on track to produce approximately 50,000 barrels per day (800 million gallons per year) of renewable fuels by the end of the second quarter, positioning Phillips 66 as a leader in renewable fuels.

The American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) recognized four Phillips 66 refineries and two CPChem facilities for exemplary safety performance in 2023. The Rodeo and Sweeny facilities both received the Distinguished Safety Award, the highest annual safety award in the industry. This was Sweeny Refinery’s third consecutive year to receive the honor. The Ponca City Refinery earned the Elite Platinum Award, and the Lake Charles Refinery secured the Elite Gold Award. In Midstream, the company received the first-place Division I 2023 GPA Midstream Safety Award for its gathering and processing operations.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS

OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Words such as “adjusted EBITDA,” “anticipated,” “estimated,” “expected,” “planned,” “scheduled,” “targeted,” “believe,” “continue,” “intend,” “will,” “would,” “objective,” “goal,” “project,” “efforts,” “strategies” and similar expressions that convey the prospective nature of events or outcomes generally indicate forward-looking statements. However, the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements included in this news release are based on management’s expectations, estimates and projections as of the date they are made. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and you should not unduly rely on them as they involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecast in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements include: fluctuations in NGL, crude oil, refined petroleum product and natural gas prices, and refining, marketing and petrochemical margins; changes in governmental policies or laws that relate to NGL, crude oil, natural gas, refined petroleum products, or renewable fuels that regulate profits, pricing, or taxation, or other regulations that limit or restrict refining, marketing and midstream operations or restrict exports; the effects of any widespread public health crisis and its negative impact on commercial activity and demand for refined petroleum products; our ability to timely obtain or maintain permits necessary for capital projects; changes to worldwide government policies relating to renewable fuels and greenhouse gas emissions that adversely affect programs including the renewable fuel standards program, low carbon fuel standards and tax credits for biofuels; our ability to achieve the expected benefits of the integration of DCP Midstream, LP, including the realization of synergies; the success of the company’s business transformation initiatives and the realization of savings and cost reductions from actions taken in connection therewith; unexpected changes in costs for constructing, modifying or operating our facilities; our ability to successfully complete, or any material delay in the completion of, asset dispositions or acquisitions that we may pursue; unexpected difficulties in manufacturing, refining or transporting our products; the level and success of drilling and production volumes around our midstream assets; risks and uncertainties with respect to the actions of actual or potential competitive suppliers and transporters of refined petroleum products, renewable fuels or specialty products; lack of, or disruptions in, adequate and reliable transportation for our NGL, crude oil, natural gas, and refined products; potential liability from litigation or for remedial actions, including removal and reclamation obligations under environmental regulations; failure to complete construction of capital projects on time and within budget; our ability to comply with governmental regulations or make capital expenditures to maintain compliance with laws; limited access to capital or significantly higher cost of capital related to illiquidity or uncertainty in the domestic or international financial markets, which may also impact our ability to repurchase shares and declare and pay dividends; potential disruption of our operations due to accidents, weather events, including as a result of climate change, acts of terrorism or cyberattacks; general domestic and international economic and political developments, including armed hostilities (such as the Russia-Ukraine war), expropriation of assets, and other political, economic or diplomatic developments; international monetary conditions and exchange controls; changes in estimates or projections used to assess fair value of intangible assets, goodwill and property and equipment and/or strategic decisions with respect to our asset portfolio that cause impairment charges; investments required, or reduced demand for products, as a result of environmental rules and regulations; changes in tax, environmental and other laws and regulations (including alternative energy mandates); political and societal concerns about climate change that could result in changes to our business or increase expenditures, including litigation-related expenses; the operation, financing and distribution decisions of equity affiliates we do not control; and other economic, business, competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting Phillips 66’s businesses generally as set forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Phillips 66 is under no obligation (and expressly disclaims any such obligation) to update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information—This news release includes the terms “adjusted earnings,” “adjusted pre-tax income (loss),” “adjusted pre-tax costs,” “adjusted earnings per share,” “operating cash flow, excluding working capital,” and “net debt-to-capital ratio.” These are non-GAAP financial measures that are included to help facilitate comparisons of operating performance across periods and to help facilitate comparisons with other companies in our industry. Where applicable, these measures exclude items that do not reflect the core operating results of our businesses in the current period or other adjustments to reflect how management analyzes results. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure are included within this release.

This news release also includes the term “mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA,” which is a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as estimated net income plus estimated net interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as estimated EBITDA plus the proportional share of selected equity affiliates’ estimated net interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization less the portion of estimated adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests. Net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the consolidated company and income before income taxes is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for operating segments. Mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA is defined as the average adjusted EBITDA generated over a complete economic cycle. Mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA estimates or targets depend on future levels of revenues and expenses, including amounts that will be attributable to noncontrolling interests, which are not reasonably estimable at this time. Accordingly, we cannot provide a reconciliation of projected mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net income or segment income before income taxes without unreasonable effort.

References in the release to earnings refer to net income attributable to Phillips 66. References in the release to shareholder distributions refers to the sum of dividends paid to Phillips 66 stockholders and proceeds used by Phillips 66 to repurchase shares of its common stock. References to run-rate cost savings includes cost savings and references to run-rate synergies include costs savings and other benefits that will be reflected in the sales and other operating revenues, purchased crude oil and products costs, operating expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses and equity in earnings of affiliates lines on our consolidated statement of income when realized. References to run-rate sustaining capital savings includes savings that will be reflected in the capital expenditures and investments on our consolidated statement of cash flows when realized. References to run-rate savings represent the sum of run-rate cost savings and run-rate sustaining capital savings.

1 Restructuring costs, related to Phillips 66’s multi-year business transformation efforts, are primarily due to consulting fees and severance costs.

2 Restructuring costs, related to the integration of DCP Midstream, primarily reflect severance costs and consulting fees. A portion of these costs are attributable to noncontrolling interests.

3 We generally tax effect taxable U.S.-based special items using a combined federal and state statutory income tax rate of approximately 24%. Taxable special items attributable to foreign locations likewise use a local statutory income tax rate. Nontaxable events reflect zero income tax. These events include, but are not limited to, most goodwill impairments, transactions legislatively exempt from income tax, transactions related to entities for which we have made an assertion that the undistributed earnings are permanently reinvested, or transactions occurring in jurisdictions with a valuation allowance.

4 Q1 2024 and Q4 2023 are based on adjusted weighted-average diluted shares of 432,158 thousand and 440,582 thousand, respectively. Other periods are based on the same weighted-average diluted shares outstanding as that used in the GAAP diluted earnings per share calculation. Income allocated to participating securities, if applicable, in the adjusted earnings per share calculation is the same as that used in the GAAP diluted earnings per share calculation.
