Reworded paragraphs (64)
Previous wording
Our Refining & Marketing segment results for the first quarter of 2026 versus the first quarter of 2025 reflect higher realized refining margins supported by stable demand and higher global product prices, partially offset by derivative losses related to our economic hedging program. Longer term, global demand growth is expected to outpace the net impact of refining capacity additions and rationalizations through the end of the decade. We anticipate these fundamentals, as well as the U.S. refining industry’s current structural advantages over the rest of the world, will support a constructive environment for U.S. refiners.
Current wording
Our Refining & Marketing segment results for the second quarter of 2026 versus the second quarter of 2025 reflect higher realized refining margins supported by stable demand and higher product prices driven by global crude oil supply disruptions as a result of increasing regional conflicts, particularly in the Middle East. Longer term, global demand growth is expected to outpace the net impact of refining capacity additions and rationalizations through the end of the decade. We anticipate these fundamentals, as well as the U.S. refining industry’s current structural advantages over the rest of the world, will support a constructive environment for U.S. refiners.
Previous wording
Our Midstream segment results for the first quarter of 2026 versus the first quarter of 2025 were impacted by derivative losses resulting from increased market volatility as well as previously announced acquisition and divestiture activity as we continue to optimize our assets and execute on progressing our growth strategies in the Permian and Northeast. We believe our Midstream business is well positioned and has significant opportunities to support the development plans of its producer customers.

Previous wording
Our Midstream segment gathers, transports, stores and distributes crude oil, refined products, including renewable diesel, and other hydrocarbon-based products, principally for our Refining & Marketing segment. Additionally, the segment markets refined products. The profitability of our pipeline transportation operations primarily depends on tariff rates and the volumes shipped through the pipelines. The profitability of our marine operations primarily depends on the quantity and availability of our vessels and barges. The profitability of our light product terminal operations primarily depends on the throughput volumes at these terminals. The profitability of our fuels distribution services primarily depends on the sales volumes of certain refined products. The profitability of our refining logistics operations depends on the quantity and availability of our refining logistics assets. A majority of the crude oil and refined product shipments on our pipelines and marine vessels and the refined product throughput at our terminals serve our Refining & Marketing segment and our refining logistics assets and fuels distribution services are used solely by our Refining & Marketing segment. As discussed above in the Refining & Marketing section, MPLX, which is reported in our Midstream segment, has various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements related to services provided to our Refining & Marketing segment. Under these agreements, MPLX has received various commitments of minimum throughput, storage and distribution volumes as well as commitments to pay for all available capacity of certain assets. The volume of crude oil that we transport is directly affected by the supply of, and refiner demand for, crude oil in the markets served directly by our crude oil pipelines, terminals and marine operations. Key factors in this supply and demand balance are the production levels of crude oil by producers in various regions or fields, the availability and cost of alternative modes of transportation, the volumes of crude oil processed at refineries and refinery and transportation system maintenance levels. The volume of refined products that we transport, store, distribute and market is directly affected by the production levels of, and user demand for, refined products in the markets served by our refined product pipelines and marine operations. In most of our markets, demand for gasoline and distillate peaks during the summer driving season, which extends from May through September of each year, and declines during the fall and winter months. As with crude oil, other transportation alternatives and system maintenance levels influence refined product movements.

Current wording
Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA increased $4.77 billion mainly due to increased per barrel margins. Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA was $24.84 per barrel for the second quarter of 2026, versus $6.79 per barrel for the second quarter of 2025.
Previous wording
Refining & Marketing margin was $17.74 per barrel for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $13.38 per barrel for the first quarter of 2025. Results benefited from higher crack spreads, partially offset by unrealized derivative losses related to our economic hedging program. Refining & Marketing margin is affected by our performance against the market indicators shown earlier, which use spot market values and an estimated mix of crude purchases and product sales. Based on the market indicators and our crude oil throughput, we estimate a net positive impact of approximately $1.3 billion on Refining & Marketing margin for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. Our reported Refining & Marketing margin differs from market indicators due to the mix of crudes purchased and their costs, the effect of market structure on our crude oil acquisition prices, the effect of RIN prices on the crack spread, and other items like refinery yields, other feedstock variances and fuel margin from sales to direct dealers. These factors had an estimated net negative effect of approximately $200 million on Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.
Current wording
Refining & Marketing margin was $36.33 per barrel for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $17.58 per barrel for the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher crack spreads.

Based on the market indicators and our crude oil throughput, we estimate a net positive impact of approximately $4 billion on Refining & Marketing margin for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025. Our reported Refining & Marketing margin differs from market indicators due to the mix of crudes purchased and their costs, the effect of market structure on our crude oil acquisition prices, the effect of RIN prices on the crack spread, and other items like refinery yields, other feedstock variances and fuel margin from sales to direct dealers. These factors had an estimated net positive effect of approximately $800 million on Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025.

We purchase RINs to satisfy a portion of our RFS compliance. Our expenses associated with purchased RINs and included in Refining & Marketing margin were $593 million and $354 million in the first quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in the first quarter of 2026 was mainly due to increased RIN obligations, lower RINs generated and acquired from our Martinez Renewables JV due to turnaround activity and higher RIN costs.

This measure should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, Renewable Diesel gross margin or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our calculation thereof may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Refining & Marketing margin was $27.24 per barrel for the first six months of 2026 compared to $15.57 per barrel for the first six months of 2025, primarily due to higher crack spreads. Refining & Marketing margin is affected by our performance against the market indicators shown earlier, which use spot market values and an estimated mix of crude purchases and product sales. Based on the market indicators and our crude oil throughput, we estimate a net positive impact of approximately $5.5 billion on Refining & Marketing margin for the first six months of 2026 compared to the first six months of 2025. Our reported Refining & Marketing margin differs from market indicators due to the mix of crudes purchased and their costs, the effect of market structure on our crude oil acquisition prices, the effect of RIN prices on the crack spread, and other items like refinery yields, other feedstock variances and fuel margin from sales to direct dealers. These factors had an estimated net positive effect of approximately $400 million on Refining & Marketing segment income in the first six months of 2026 compared to the first six months of 2025.
