Valero Energy Corporation (NYSE: VLO, “Valero”) today reported a net loss attributable to Valero stockholders of $704 million, or $1.73 per share, for the first quarter of 2021, compared to a net loss of $1.9 billion, or $4.54 per share, for the first quarter of 2020. The operating loss in the first quarter of 2021 includes estimated excess energy costs of $579 million, or $1.15 per share, related to impacts from Winter Storm Uri. Excluding the adjustments shown in the accompanying earnings release tables, adjusted net income attributable to Valero stockholders for the first quarter of 2020 was $140 million, or $0.34 per share. First quarter 2020 adjusted results exclude an after-tax lower of cost or market, or LCM, inventory valuation adjustment of approximately $2.0 billion.
“Winter Storm Uri impacted operations and operating costs of many facilities in the U.S. Gulf Coast and U.S. Mid-Continent regions, including our facilities,” said Joe Gorder, Valero Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “I am very proud of our team for safely managing the utilities curtailments and the freeze by idling or shutting down the affected facilities and resuming operations without incident.”
Refining
The refining segment reported a $592 million operating loss for the first quarter of 2021, compared to an operating loss of $2.1 billion for the first quarter of 2020. The first quarter 2021 adjusted operating loss was $554 million, compared to adjusted operating income of $329 million in the first quarter of 2020, which excludes the LCM inventory valuation adjustment. The operating loss for the first quarter of 2021 includes estimated excess energy costs of $525 million related to impacts from Winter Storm Uri. Refinery throughput volumes averaged 2.4 million barrels per day in the first quarter of 2021, which was 414 thousand barrels per day lower than the first quarter of 2020.
“We are encouraged by the substantial increase in products demand and refining margins in the last three months,” said Gorder. “In fact, we achieved positive operating income and operating cash flow in March.”
Renewable Diesel
The renewable diesel segment, which consists of the Diamond Green Diesel (DGD) joint venture, reported $203 million of operating income for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $198 million for the first quarter of 2020. Renewable diesel sales volumes averaged 867 thousand gallons per day in the first quarter of 2021.
“We are leveraging our global liquid fuels platform to continue expanding our long-term competitive advantage in renewables,” said Gorder. “Valero’s operational expertise and commercial strength are demonstrated by the record operating income and renewable diesel margin by this segment in the first quarter of 2021.”
Ethanol
The ethanol segment reported a $56 million operating loss for the first quarter of 2021, compared to an operating loss of $197 million for the first quarter of 2020. The operating loss for the first quarter of 2021 includes estimated excess energy costs of $54 million related to impacts from Winter Storm Uri. First quarter 2020 adjusted operating loss was $69 million, which excludes the LCM inventory valuation adjustment. Ethanol production volumes averaged 3.6 million gallons per day in the first quarter of 2021, which was 541 thousand gallons per day lower than the first quarter of 2020.
Corporate and Other
General and administrative expenses were $208 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $177 million in the first quarter of 2020. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was 19 percent.
Investing and Financing Activities
Capital investments totaled $582 million in the first quarter of 2021, of which $333 million was for sustaining the business, including costs for turnarounds, catalysts and regulatory compliance. Excluding capital investments attributable to our partner’s 50 percent share of DGD and those related to other variable interest entities, capital investments attributable to Valero were $479 million.
Net cash used in operating activities was $52 million in the first quarter of 2021. Included in this amount was a $184 million favorable impact from working capital and $108 million associated with our joint venture partner’s share of DGD’s net cash provided by operating activities, excluding changes in DGD’s working capital. Excluding these items, adjusted net cash used in operating activities was $344 million.
Valero returned $400 million to stockholders through dividends in the first quarter of 2021.
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 first quarter of 2021 with $14.7 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 40 percent as of March 31, 2021.
Strategic Update
Valero continues to evaluate and pursue economic projects that lower the carbon intensity of its products. Valero announced that it is partnering with BlackRock and Navigator for a large-scale carbon capture and storage system in the U.S. Midwest that would capture and store carbon dioxide (CO2) from eight of Valero’s ethanol plants, making a lower carbon intensity ethanol product to be marketed in low carbon fuel markets. The system is expected to be capable of storing 5 million metric tonnes of CO2 per year.
In addition, Valero and its joint venture partner continue to steadily expand DGD’s capacity to produce low carbon intensity renewable diesel. The DGD plant expansion at St. Charles (DGD 2), which is expected to increase renewable diesel production by 400 million gallons per year, is on track to be completed and operational in the middle of the fourth quarter of 2021. The St. Charles expansion will also provide the capability to market 30 million gallons per year of renewable naphtha into low carbon fuel markets. The new DGD plant at Port Arthur (DGD 3), which is expected to produce 470 million gallons per year of renewable diesel, is expected to commence operations in the second half of 2023, increasing DGD’s total annual production capacity to approximately 1.2 billion gallons of renewable diesel and 50 million gallons of renewable naphtha.
Refinery optimization projects that are expected to reduce cost and improve margin capture, are progressing on schedule. The Pembroke Cogen project is on track to be completed in the third quarter of 2021 and the Port Arthur Coker project is expected to be completed in 2023.
On April 19, Valero sold a 24.99 percent membership interest in its Pasadena marine terminal joint venture for $270 million. Valero will retain a 25.01 percent interest in the joint venture.
Capital investments attributable to Valero are forecasted to be $2.0 billion in 2021, of which approximately 60 percent is for sustaining the business and approximately 40 percent is for growth projects. Over half of Valero’s 2021 growth capital is allocated to expanding the renewable diesel business.
“Continued improvement in product demand and refining margins supports a positive outlook for our refining business,” said Gorder. “Those improvements coupled with our growth strategy and operational expertise in low carbon renewable fuels, further strengthens Valero’s long-term competitive advantage.”
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,” “forecast,” 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 report 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. 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, the timing or effectiveness of the vaccine distribution, 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 annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This earnings release and the accompanying earnings release tables include references to financial measures that are not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

VALERO ENERGY CORPORATION NOTES TO EARNINGS RELEASE TABLES |
|
(a) |
In mid-February 2021, many of our refineries and plants were impacted to varying extents by the severe cold, utility disruptions, and higher energy costs resulting from Winter Storm Uri. The higher energy costs were driven by an increase in the prices of natural gas and electricity that significantly exceeded rates that we consider normal, such as the average rates we incurred the month preceding the storm. As a result, our operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 includes estimated excess energy costs of $579 million ($1.15 per share). |
|
|
The above-mentioned pre-tax estimated excess energy charge is reflected in our statement of income line items and attributable to our reportable segments as follows (in millions): |

The estimated excess energy costs attributable to our ethanol segment affected that segment’s operating statistics of “operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization expenses) per gallon of production” and “adjusted operating loss per gallon of production” by $0.16 (see note (d) below). |
|
|
|
(b) | The market value of our inventories accounted for under the last-in, first-out 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. Of the $2.5 billion adjustment, $2.4 billion and $128 million are attributable to our refining and ethanol segments, respectively. |
|
|
(c) | Common equivalent shares have been excluded from the computation of loss per common share – assuming dilution for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, and adjusted loss per common share – assuming dilution for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as the effect of including such shares would be antidilutive. |
|
|
Common equivalent shares have been included in the computation of adjusted earnings per common share – assuming dilution for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as the effect of including such shares is dilutive. Weighted-average shares outstanding – assuming dilution used to calculate adjusted earnings per common share – assuming dilution is 409 million shares. |
(d) |
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: |

– 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 Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC (DGD) and we consolidate DGD’s financial statements. Our renewable diesel segment includes the operations of DGD and the associated activities to market renewable diesel. Because we consolidate DGD’s financial statements, 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): |

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. Because DGD’s operating cash flow is effectively attributable to each partner, only 50 percent of DGD’s capital investments should be attributed to our net share of total capital investments. We also exclude the capital expenditures of our other consolidated VIEs because we do not operate those VIEs. We believe capital investments attributable to Valero is an important measure because it more accurately reflects our capital investments. |

|
(e) | 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. |
(f) | Primarily includes petrochemicals, gas oils, No. 6 fuel oil, petroleum coke, sulfur, and asphalt. |
|
|
(g) | 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. |
