HF Sinclair Corporation (NYSE:DINO) (“HF Sinclair” or the “Company”) today reported fourth quarter net loss attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders of $(62.2) million, or $(0.34) per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, compared to net income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders of $587.0 million, or $2.92 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. Excluding the adjustments shown in the accompanying earnings release table, adjusted net income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $164.6 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, compared to $597.8 million, or $2.97 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2022.

HF Sinclair’s Chief Executive Officer, Tim Go, commented, “HF Sinclair’s strong fourth quarter and full year results reflect our continued commitment to executing our corporate strategy. In 2023, we completed maintenance turnarounds at all of our refineries during the year on schedule and on budget as we took another step towards improving reliability across our portfolio. In addition, in the fourth quarter we closed the transaction to buy-in our HEP business and furthered our efforts to integrate and optimize our asset base. During the year, we also returned over $1.3 billion in cash to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends, delivering on our cash return commitment to shareholders. Going forward, we remain focused on further executing our corporate strategy to maximize shareholder value. We believe the strength and diversification of our asset base, coupled with our disciplined approach to capital allocation, will position us for success.”

Refining segment loss before interest and income taxes was $(74.6) million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to income before interest and income taxes of $758.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The segment reported EBITDA of $57.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $863.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. Excluding the lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustment, the segment reported Adjusted EBITDA of $278.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily driven by lower refinery gross margins in both the West and Mid-Continent regions which resulted in lower Refining segment earnings in the quarter. Consolidated refinery gross margin was $13.88 per produced barrel, a 41% decrease compared to $23.47 for the fourth quarter of 2022. Crude oil charge averaged 614,160 barrels per day (“BPD”) for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to 628,160 BPD for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Renewables segment loss before interest and income taxes was $(75.9) million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $(34.7) million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The segment reported EBITDA of $(56.7) million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $(16.4) million for the fourth quarter of 2022. Excluding the lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustment, the segment reported Adjusted EBITDA of $(2.7) million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $(6.9) million for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Lubricants & Specialties segment income before interest and income taxes was $34.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $44.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The segment reported EBITDA of $57.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $66.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. This decrease was largely driven by a $29.9 million FIFO charge from consumption of higher priced feedstock inventory in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to a $7.3 million FIFO charge for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Midstream segment income before interest and income taxes was $81.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $68.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The segment reported EBITDA of $104.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $89.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and Adjusted EBITDA of $109.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $87.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Reconciliations to Amounts Reported Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

Reconciliations of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and EBITDA excluding special items (“Adjusted EBITDA”) to amounts reported under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in financial statements.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, referred to as EBITDA, is calculated as net (loss) income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders plus (i) interest expense, net of interest income, (ii) income tax provision and (iii) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA plus or minus (i) lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, (ii) decommissioning costs, (iii) HF Sinclair's pro-rata share of Osage environmental remediation costs, net of insurance recoveries and (iv) acquisition integration and regulatory costs.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not calculations provided for under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States; however, the amounts included in these calculations are derived from amounts included in our consolidated financial statements. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income or operating income as an indication of our operating performance or as an alternative to operating cash flow as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These are presented here because they are widely used financial indicators used by investors and analysts to measure performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by our management for internal analysis and as a basis for financial covenants.

Set forth below is our calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

Reconciliations of refinery operating information (non-GAAP performance measures) to amounts reported under generally accepted accounting principles in financial statements.

Refinery gross margin and net operating margin are non-GAAP performance measures that are used by our management and others to compare our refining performance to that of other companies in our industry. We believe these margin measures are helpful to investors in evaluating our refining performance on a relative and absolute basis. Refinery gross margin per produced barrel sold is total Refining segment revenues less total Refining segment cost of products sold, exclusive of lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, divided by sales volumes of produced refined products sold. Net operating margin per barrel sold is the difference between refinery gross margin and refinery operating expenses per produced barrel sold. These two margins do not include the non-cash effects of lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments or depreciation and amortization. Each of these component performance measures can be reconciled directly to our consolidated statements of operations. Other companies in our industry may not calculate these performance measures in the same manner.

Reconciliation of net income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders to adjusted net income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders

Adjusted net income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes non-cash lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, decommissioning costs, HEP's share of Osage environmental remediation costs, net of insurance recoveries and acquisition integration and regulatory costs. We believe this measure is helpful to investors and others in evaluating our financial performance and to compare our results to that of other companies in our industry. Similarly titled performance measures of other companies may not be calculated in the same manner.

Non-GAAP adjustment to income tax expense		$	72,474			$	2,487			$	74,634			$	22,142

(2)		Non-GAAP income tax expense is computed by (a) adjusting HF Sinclair’s consolidated estimated Annual Effective Tax Rate (“AETR”) for GAAP purposes for the effects of the above Non-GAAP adjustments, (b) applying the resulting Adjusted Non-GAAP AETR to Non-GAAP adjusted income before income taxes and (c) adjusting for discrete tax items applicable to the period.
(3)		Adjusted earnings per share - diluted is calculated as adjusted net income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders divided by the average number of shares of common stock outstanding assuming dilution, which is based on 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 calculated the same way as that used in GAAP diluted earnings per share calculation.
