Current report
Our refining operations continue to be impacted by requirements to comply with RFS-2. In the third quarter of 2025, we were returned 2019-2023 RINs after being granted small refinery exemptions from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) related to the 2019-2024 compliance periods. While a majority of the RINs returned were expired and had no value, the small refinery exemptions allowed us to retain certain non-expired 2023 and 2024 RINs. Additionally, the exemptions resulted in a reduction of our Consolidated Net RINs obligation related to the unsettled 2024 obligation and a reduction within cost of materials and other in 2025.

Delek Logistics
Current report
On May 1, 2025, we transferred the Delek Permian Gathering purchasing and blending activities to Delek Logistics (the "DPG Dropdown”). In connection with the DPG Dropdown, Delek Logistics will assume all of the rights and obligations to purchase crude oil under certain contracts associated with Delek Logistics’ existing Midland Gathering System. Total consideration included the cancellation of $58.8 million in payables owed to Delek Logistics.
Current report
On May 1, 2025, we entered into a termination agreement with Delek Logistics to terminate, in its entirety, the East Texas Marketing Agreement effective as of January 1, 2026.
Current report
On May 1, 2025, in connection with the DPG Dropdown, we amended and restated a throughput agreement with Delek Logistics for the El Dorado rail facility (the “Throughput Agreement”), which includes a minimum volume commitment for refined products until the termination of the Throughput Agreement, which will occur at the closing of the El Dorado Purchase (as defined below). Additionally, on May 1, 2025, in connection with the DPG Dropdown, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Delek Logistics (the “El Dorado Purchase Agreement”), where we will purchase the related El Dorado rail facility assets from Delek Logistics for cash consideration of $25.0 million (the “El Dorado Purchase”). The El Dorado Purchase is currently set to close January 1, 2026, subject to certain closing conditions as set forth in the El Dorado Purchase Agreement.
Current report
We also entered into an amended and restated Omnibus Agreement with Delek Logistics that provides for an increase in the Administrative Fee (as defined therein) which will be phased in over two years beginning July 1, 2025 and a binding obligation for both parties to enter into transition services agreements in the event of a change in control.
Current report
On January 30, 2026, we entered into asset purchase agreements with Delek Logistics, (collectively referred to as “the Intercompany Agreements”), pursuant to which we agreed to acquire a Tyler refinery tank for total consideration of $19.0 million (the “Tyler Tank Purchase”) and El Dorado tank and terminal assets for total consideration of $66.0 million (the “El Dorado Terminal Purchase”). The Tyler Tank Purchase and the El Dorado Terminal Purchase are expected to close on April 1, 2026 and October 1, 2027, respectively, in each case subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Under the Intercompany Agreements, the consideration may be paid in a combination of cash and equity, with up to $20.0 million of the aggregate consideration payable through the return of Delek Logistics common units. In addition, pursuant to the Intercompany Agreements, Delek will waive Omnibus fees for an aggregate of $4.0 million during the first two quarters of 2026.
Current report
These transactions with Delek Logistics will be eliminated in consolidation.

Small Refinery Exemptions
Current report
On August 22, 2025, the EPA announced its decisions on multiple outstanding small refinery exemption (SRE) petitions from refineries seeking an exemption from their Renewable Fuel Standard obligations for the 2016–2024 compliance years. As part of the exemption review, Delek was granted full and partial exemptions for multiple refineries related to obligations for the 2019-2024 calendar years.
Current report
The exemptions granted resulted in Delek being returned 2019-2023 RINs used to satisfy some of our Consolidated Net RINs obligation for previous compliance periods. A majority of these RINs were expired at the point in time the EPA returned them and lacked value. In addition, the exemptions granted for 2024 relieved or partially relieved Delek of its RIN obligations for certain refineries for the 2024 compliance year, allowing the company to retain or monetize the valid RINs that would have otherwise been required for compliance.
Current report
The SREs resulted in a reduction of our Consolidated Net RINs Obligation and therefore a reduction within cost of materials and other of approximately $356.1 million in 2025.
Current report
Operations that are not specifically included in the reportable segments are included in Corporate, Other and Eliminations, which consist of our corporate activities, results of certain immaterial operating segments, including our Canadian crude trading operations and intercompany eliminations.
Current report
II. Financial Strength and Flexibility - EOP
Current report
III. Strategic Initiatives - "sum of the parts"
Current report
Delek is an obligated party under the RFS, which requires us to obtain RINs to satisfy our annual Renewable Volume Obligation (“RVO”). While we are able to obtain a portion of the RINs required for compliance by blending renewable fuels manufactured by third parties, we must also purchase RINs on the open market in order to comply with the quantity of renewable fuels we are required to blend under the RFS. The price and number of RINs an obligated party must acquire are impacted by government regulation requiring such credits, and also may be impacted by small refiner exemptions (“SREs”) granted by the EPA. In past years, the price of RINs has been highly volatile and the EPA’s decisions on SRE hardship petitions have been unduly delayed. Increasing RINs prices, inconsistent administration of the RFS by the EPA, and Delek’s market position has prevented us from passing through compliance costs of the program in the past and will likely continue in the future. While we cannot predict the future prices of RINs, the costs to obtain the necessary number of RINs could be material. Our future operating results are significantly dependent on the EPAs granting of SREs on a timely basis. If we are unable to pass the costs of compliance with the RFS on to our customers, if sufficient RINs are unavailable for purchase, if we have to pay a significantly higher price for RINs or if we are otherwise unable to meet the RFS mandates, our refinery operations, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Current report
In the past, we have received SREs under the RFS program for certain of our refineries. In August 2025, the EPA granted full and partial exemptions for certain of our refineries related to obligations for the 2019-2024 calendar years. We were able to use some of these RINs to satisfy our obligation for previous compliance periods. However, because RINs are valid for a one-year period, a majority of the refunded RINs had expired and therefore cannot be used or sold for value to offset future compliance obligations. The relief received also was not sufficient to offset our 2025 compliance obligation and thus Delek’s refineries will need to seek relief from the EPA for the hardship imposed by the RFS for the 2025 compliance year.

Previous report
During 2024, the Refining segment navigated a complex landscape characterized by strong U.S. utilization, volatile crude oil prices, resilient demand and fluctuating inventories. We had a safe and reliable 2024 from an operational perspective; however, the current refining margin environment is challenging as crack spreads narrowed in 2024. The domestic West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") differentials compared to Brent continued to be favorable, and the WTI Midland to Cushing differential narrowed favorably during 2023. Though refining margins softened, demand for refined products continues to be strong. Logistics continued to contribute strong results driven by increased volumes from the Delaware Basin and rate increases. Additionally, Logistics also continues to benefit from strong performance amongst our pipeline joint venture investments. We will continue to execute on our priorities of running safe and reliable operations, making further progress on our "sum of the parts" efforts, and delivering shareholder value while maintaining our financial strength and flexibility.
Previous report
Our focus on reduction of GHG is a key objective as we strive to be a leader in the transition to a carbon neutral future. Gulf coast industries should be well positioned for growth, particularly if global trade becomes tied to environmental attributes. Following the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA"), Delek is investing in carbon capture technology. We were selected by the Department of Energy's ("DOE") Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations to negotiate a cost-sharing agreement in support of a carbon capture pilot project at the Big Spring, Texas refinery. The DOE Carbon Capture Large-Scale Pilot Project program provides 70% cost-share for up to $95 million of federal funding to support project development. The project will deploy carbon capture technology at the Big Spring refinery's Fluid Catalytic Cracking unit, while maintaining existing production capabilities and turnaround schedule. Expectations for the project are to capture 145,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year, as well as reduce health-harming pollutants, such as sulfur oxide and particulate matter. Carbon dioxide is expected to be transported by existing pipelines for permanent storage or utilization. Delek prioritizes stewardship of the environment, and we focus on how to positively impact our shareholders, employees, customers, and the communities where we operate.
Previous report
us to further execute on our "sum of the parts" plan by facilitating Delek Logistics' acquisition of H2O Midstream and Gravity, dropdown of the Wink to Webster Pipeline joint venture and planned expansion of its natural gas processing plant. These Delek Logistics transactions will enhance Delek Logistics position as a full service (crude, natural gas and water) provider in the most prolific areas of the Permian basin while increasing third party revenue. In addition, the Retail Transaction will allow us to strengthen our balance sheet. We believe each of these steps is consistent with our focus on strategic initiatives which includes unlocking the "sum of the parts". See further discussion in the "Strategic Objectives" section below.

Renewables
Previous report
During the second quarter of 2024, we made the decision to idle the Crossett, Arkansas, Cleburne, Texas and New Albany, Mississippi biodiesel facilities, while exploring viable and sustainable alternatives. Those alternatives could include restarting if market conditions improve, marketing for sale or permanently closing any of the facilities. Our decision to idle these facilities was driven by the decline in the overall biodiesel market and aligns with our continued operational and cost optimization efforts. As a result, we conducted an evaluation of impairment and based on our review we recorded a $22.1 million impairment which included property, plant and equipment and right of use assets. In addition, $0.4 million of severance and benefit expenses were recognized in the year ended December 31, 2024.

Property Settlement
Previous report
On June 27, 2024, we settled a dispute that was in litigation related to a property that we historically operated as an asphalt and marine fuel terminal both as an owner and, subsequently, as a lessee under an in-substance lease agreement (the “License Agreement”). The settlement included the purchase of the property for $10.0 million and $42.0 million for settlement of the litigation for a total of $52.0 million. The total settlement was comprised of $24.0 million of cash paid at closing and a promissory note for $28.0 million to be paid in three equal installments of $9.3 million on each of April 1, 2025, April 1, 2026 and April 1, 2027, plus accrued interest.
Previous report
As a result of the termination of the License Agreement, we are no longer obligated to remove equipment from the property for certain development activities and as a result we reversed the $17.9 million asset retirement obligation since we intend to operate the property as an asphalt and marine fuel terminal. Additionally, as a result of the settlement, we reduced the non-contingent guarantee and environmental liability

Delek Logistics Gas Plant Expansion
Previous report
In the second quarter of 2024, Delek Logistics made the final investment decision to build a new natural gas processing plant adjacent to its plant in the Permian Basin. The plant is expected to have a capacity of approximately 110 MMcf/d and aims to meet the rising demand for natural gas in the region. Total estimated cost is between $160.0 and $165.0 million with an anticipated start-up in the first half 2025. This expansion project will also increase Delek Logistics' third party revenue. Expected annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") is estimated to be approximately $40.0 million attributable to Delek Logistics.
Previous report
Additionally, in December 2024, Delek Logistics announced the development of permitted acid gas injection ("AGI") capabilities at the new plant with an anticipated start-up in the first half 2025.

Other 2025 Developments
Previous report
During the second quarter 2024, we realigned our reportable segments for financial reporting purposes to reflect changes in the manner in which our chief operating decision maker, or CODM, assesses financial information for decision-making purposes. The change represents reporting the operating results of our 50% interest in a joint venture that owns asphalt terminals located in the southwestern region of the U.S. within the refining segment. Prior to this change, these operating results were reported as part of corporate, other and eliminations. While this reporting change did not change our consolidated results, segment data for previous years has been restated and is consistent with the current year presentation.

Strategic Initiatives
Previous report
In June 2022, the EPA finalized volumes for compliance years 2020, 2021 and 2022 under the RFS program (as defined in our accounting policies in Note 2 to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K), announced supplemental volume obligations for compliance years 2022 and 2023 and established new provisions of the RFS which addressed bio-intermediates. Additionally, the EPA denied the petitions for small refinery exemptions for prior period compliance years. In June 2023, the EPA released final volumes for compliance years 2023, 2024 and 2025. The cost of RINs continues to negatively impact our results of operations. Also of note, movements in crack spreads behave independently from movements in RFS regulatory requirements and RINs prices and thus can disproportionately impact small refiners. For example, in periods of low crack spreads and high RIN costs (which are a function of both regulatory volumetric requirements and market RINs prices), small refineries may experience negative operating results where other, larger refineries with better economies of scale and other competitive advantages may fare better. Even when increases in crack spreads coincide with the independent increases in RIN prices, small refiners may continue to see a larger burden of such costs on crack spread capture in earnings than many larger refineries experience.

Climate Change
Previous report
Increasingly unstable environmental conditions and spontaneous extreme weather events are making it costlier and more difficult for oil and gas companies to operate in certain environments. Consequently, climate-change, and related current and proposed regulations, are directly and indirectly impacting industry bottom lines globally and in specific geographic areas where we operate. Current and proposed climate-change and environmental regulations, laws and government policies affect where and how companies invest, conduct their operations and formulate their products and, in some cases, limit their profits directly. There continues to be significant uncertainty around coming regulatory requirements, not just from an operational perspective, but also around what reporting requirements may be, as well as the associated cost.
Previous report
We remain committed to complying with all regulations, laws and government policies designed to curb the growing climate-change crisis. In 2024, Delek updated its GHG reduction target to include application of a 2022 “baseline” year that is more reflective of the current operational boundaries and application of a 25% Scope 1 and 2 emission reduction target, measured on an intensity basis, by 2030. We plan to pursue the reductions via a combination of steps including, but not limited to: innovative technology investment, carbon capture, operational energy efficiencies, increased application of renewable power and refinery fuel gas optimization. We were selected by the DOE Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations to negotiate a cost-sharing agreement in support of a carbon capture pilot project at the Big Spring refinery. The DOE Carbon Capture Large-Scale Pilot Project program provides 70% cost-share for up to $95 million of federal funding to support project development.

Our focus on safe and reliable operations is a pillar which underlines all of our business activities. We continue to identify opportunities to mitigate market risk and focus on efforts that improve our overall cost structure while not compromising operational excellence. During 2024, we made steady progress on our "sum of the parts" efforts. We completed the sale of our Retail Stores during the third quarter 2024 for proceeds of $390.2 million and also entered into a 10 year fuel supply agreement whereby Delek will sell to FEMSA certain motor fuel products for use at the Retail Stores. The completion of the Retail Transaction was an important step in our value creation journey and strengthened our balance sheet. Our logistics segment (or "Logistics") successfully closed the H2O Midstream Acquisition which expands our gathering footprint in the Midland sub-basin of the Permian, and extended our product offering of wastewater processing and disposal. In addition, in January 2025, the Logistics segment successfully closed the Gravity Acquisition which includes integrated full-cycle water systems in the Permian Basin, in addition to produced water gathering, and transportation assets in the Bakken, and along with the H2O Midstream Acquisition, provide a strong opportunity for integrated crude and water services to Delek Logistics customers. These acquisitions represent another significant step in Delek Logistics' commitment of being a full suite crude, gas and water midstream services provider in the Permian Basin in addition to diversifying our logistics customer base to include more third-party customers. We expect that these acquisitions will be immediately accretive, delivering incremental contribution margin and cash flows. We also completed strategic transactions with Delek Logistics including the dropdown of W2W Holdings LLC ("HoldCo") which includes our 15.6% indirect interest in the Wink to Webster Pipeline LLC joint venture as well as amended and extended certain commercial agreements. These transactions are expected to make both Delek and Delek Logistics stronger companies.

Our focus on safe and reliable operations is a pillar which underlines all of our business activities. We continue to identify opportunities to mitigate market risk and focus on efforts that improve our overall cost structure while not compromising operational excellence. During the year we continued to make progress on our "sum of the parts" efforts. Our logistics segment (or "Logistics") successfully closed the Gravity Acquisition which includes integrated full-cycle water systems in the Permian Basin, in addition to produced water gathering, and transportation assets in the Bakken, and along with the H2O Midstream Acquisition acquired in the third quarter of 2024, provide a strong opportunity for integrated crude and water services to Delek Logistics customers. These acquisitions represents another significant step in Delek Logistics' commitment of being a full suite crude, gas and water midstream services provider in the Permian Basin in addition to diversifying our logistics customer base to include more third-party customers. Also during 2025 and 2026, we entered into additional agreements with Delek Logistics which put additional midstream commercial activities in Delek Logistics and will bring refining related activities and assets back to our refining segment (or "Refining"). These transactions increased consolidated financial availability by approximately $250 million and continue to grow Delek Logistics third-party earnings while decreasing dependence on Delek. During 2025, the Refining segment provided higher margins than 2024 due to increased crack spreads and the impact of small refinery exemptions. Crack spreads were higher during 2025 than 2024 but still lower than historic highs in 2023. Our disciplined approach to cost control, coupled with a focus on our enterprise optimization plan ("EOP") margin enhancements, as well as the impact related to the small refinery exemptions granted supported earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") growth and improved cash flow, while our capital deployment remained aligned with our strategic priorities. The domestic West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") differentials compared to Brent continued to be favorable, and the WTI Midland to Cushing differential narrowed favorably compared to 2024. The increased refining margins compared to the 2024 continues to demonstrate that demand for refined products continues to be stable. We will continue to execute on our priorities of running safe and reliable operations, making further progress on our "sum of the parts" and EOP efforts, and delivering shareholder value while maintaining our financial strength and flexibility.

The near term economic outlook still has some uncertainty with geopolitical instability and commodity market volatility, and as a result we continue to progress our business transformation focused on enterprise-wide opportunities to improve the efficiency of our cost structure. During 2024, we implemented additional cost reduction measures across the organization, including reducing contract services and reducing or eliminating non-critical travel. We completed our zero based budget action plans and announced a new enterprise optimization plan ("EOP") which includes initiatives that are focused on improving our financial health and ability to generate cash flows. The EOP includes leaner costs including lower general and administrative expenses, lower operating expenses specifically at the Big Spring Refinery and Krotz Springs Refinery and lowering interest expense. The EOP also includes stronger margins including accretive minimal capital projects in our Refining segment and commercial improvements including market optionality, improved product slate and optimization. By executing on our initiatives to optimize our cost structure, we are positioning the Company in the event of lower crack spreads and volatility in the commodity markets.

We have positioned the Company to continue to run safely, reliably and environmentally responsibly while leveraging our Delek Logistics business with an eye towards the One Delek vision. Many uncertainties remain in 2025 with respect to the global supply and demand of the crude oil and refined products markets and it is difficult to predict the ultimate economic impacts this may have on our operations. We expect refining capacity to shut down, lower refined products inventory and crude oil demand to continue to rise. These factors will help absorb the recent additions in global supply and balance the market over the next 6 to 12 months. We expect crack spreads to be relatively consistent with 2024. However, U.S. policy changes and escalating conflicts in the Middle East could potentially result in supply disruptions or further volatility in crude oil prices.

Environmental regulations and the political environment continue to affect our refining margins in the form of volatility in the price of RINs. We enter into future commitments to purchase or sell RINs at fixed prices and quantities, which are used to manage our RINs Obligations. On a consolidated basis, we work to balance our RINs Obligation in order to minimize the effect of RINs prices on our results. While we obtain RINs in our refining and logistics segments through our ethanol blending, our refining segment still must purchase additional RINs to satisfy its obligations. Prior to the idling of the biodiesel facilities in 2024, we obtained RINs through biodiesel blending and generated RINs through biodiesel production. Additionally, our ability to obtain RINs through blending is limited by our refined product slate, blending capabilities and market constraints. The cost to purchase these additional RINs is a significant cash outflow for our business. Increases in the market prices of RINs generally adversely affect our results of operations through changes in fair value to our existing RINs Obligation, to the extent we do not have offsetting RINs inventory on hand or effective economic hedges through net forward purchase commitments. RINs prices are highly sensitive to regulatory and political influence and conditions, and therefore often do not correlate to movements in crude oil prices, refined product prices or crack spreads. Because of the volatility in RINs prices, it is not possible to predict future RINs cost with certainty, and movements in RINs prices can have significant and unanticipated adverse effects on our refining margins that are outside of our control.

Energy costs are a significant element of our Refining EBITDA and can significantly impact our ability to capture crack spreads, with natural gas representing the largest component. Natural gas prices are driven by supply-side factors such as amount of natural gas production, level of natural gas in storage and import and export activity, while demand-side factors include variability of weather, economic growth and the availability and price of other fuels. Refiners and other large-volume fuel consumers may be more or less susceptible to volatility in natural gas prices depending on their consumption levels as well as their capabilities to switch to more economical sources of fuel/energy. Additionally, geographic location of facilities make consumers vulnerable to price differentials of natural gas available at different supply hubs. Within Delek’s geographic footprint, we source the majority of our natural gas from the Gulf Coast, and secondarily from the Permian, coinciding with the physical locations of our refineries. We manage our risk around natural gas prices by entering into variable and fixed-price supply contracts in both the Gulf and Permian Basin or by entering into derivative hedges based on forecasted consumption and forward curve prices, as appropriate, in accordance with our risk policy.

Our refining segment purchases finished product from our logistics segment and has multiple service agreements with our logistics segment which, among other things, require the refining segment to pay terminalling and storage fees based on the throughput volume of crude and finished product in the logistics segment pipelines and the volume of crude and finished product stored in the logistics segment storage tanks, subject to MVCs. These costs and fees were $562.2 million and $477.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We eliminate these intercompany fees in consolidation.

EBITDA decreased by $20.3 million, or 5.6%, in the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily driven by recording certain throughput and storage fees in interest income due to sales-type lease accounting that were previously recorded as revenue in prior year period, partially offset by higher terminalling and marketing fees due to rate increases as well as higher throughput volumes. These sales-type leases have no impact to the Delek US consolidated results as these amounts eliminate in consolidation.
