Management's Discussion and Analysis
Executive Summary: Management's View of Our Business and Strategic Overview
Management's View of Our Business
We are an integrated downstream energy business focused on petroleum refining and the transportation, storage and wholesale distribution of crude oil, intermediate and refined products as well as wastewater processing, disposal and recycling.
Business and Economic Environment Overview
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 first half of 2025, 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, provide a strong opportunity for integrated crude and water services to Delek Logistics customers. This acquisition 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. The Gravity Acquisition has become immediately accretive, delivering incremental contribution margin and cash flows. During the second quarter of 2025, 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"). Additionally, these transactions increased consolidated financial availability by approximately $250 million. Delek Logistics also sold $700.0 million of 7.325% Senior Notes due 2033, at par during the second quarter of 2025. Net proceeds were used to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the Delek Logistics Revolving Facility providing Delek Logistics with $1.1 billion of availability on the facility providing further financial flexibility.
During the second quarter of 2025, the Refining segment provided higher margins than the first quarter of 2025 and the prior year second quarter due to increased crack spreads. Crack spreads were higher during the second quarter of 2025 than the prior twelve months. Our disciplined approach to cost control, coupled with a focus on our enterprise optimization plan ("EOP") margin enhancements, 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 contracted favorably during the second quarter of 2025. The increased refining margins compared to the second quarter of 2024 continues to demonstrate that demand for refined products continues to be strong. Logistics continued to contribute strong results driven by incremental contributions from H2O Midstream and Gravity. 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.
The near term economic outlook still has uncertainty with the introduction of widespread tariffs by the U.S., geopolitical instability and commodity market volatility. The uncertainty surrounding trade negotiations and the potential for further expansion of tariffs have contributed to increased market and commodity volatility and potential economic downturns. As a result, we continue to progress our business transformation focused on enterprise-wide opportunities to improve the efficiency of our cost structure. We continued to advance our strategic initiatives aimed at long-term value creation. This includes the progress made on our EOP. During 2024, we announced a new 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. At the El Dorado Refinery our EOP is focused on margin improvement through enhanced logistics, reduced costs, higher quality product slate, and new products producing higher yields. 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 want to reward our shareholders with a disciplined and balanced capital allocation framework. As we strengthen our relative financial position, we believe a balanced approach between shareholder returns and balance sheet improvement is appropriate. As of June 30, 2025, we returned $75.8 million of capital in 2025 to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks and returned another $7.9 million through share buybacks in July of 2025.
Our near-term focus is centered around the following: (1) operations excellence, (2) financial strength and flexibility and (3) strategic initiatives which includes unlocking the "sum of the parts" value of our existing business while identifying growth opportunities to enhance the Company's scale and diversify revenue streams. See further discussion in the "Strategic Objectives" section below.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Other 2025 Developments
Acquisition of Gravity
On January 2, 2025, Delek Logistics acquired 100% of the limited liability company interests in Gravity Water Intermediate Holdings LLC from Gravity Water Holdings LLC (the "Gravity Purchase Agreement") related to water disposal and recycling operations in the Permian Basin and the Bakken for total consideration of $300.8 million, subject to customary adjustments for net working capital. The purchase price was comprised of $209.3 million in cash and 2,175,209 of Delek Logistics’ common units.
Inventory Intermediation Agreement Amendment
On February 21, 2025, DK Trading & Supply, LLC ("DKTS") amended the inventory intermediation agreement ("Inventory Intermediation Agreement") with Citigroup Energy Inc. ("Citi") to among other things, (i) extend the term of the Inventory Intermediation Agreement from January 31, 2026 to January 31, 2027 and (ii) include a mechanism for DKTS to nominate each month whether to include volumes related to the Krotz Springs refinery for funding under the Inventory Intermediation Agreement.
Delek Logistics
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.
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.
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.
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.
These transactions with Delek Logistics will be eliminated in consolidation.
Delek Logistics Debt Agreement
On June 30, 2025, Delek Logistics sold $700.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.325% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “Delek Logistics 2033 Notes”), at par. Net proceeds were used to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the Delek Logistics Revolving Facility.
Information About Our Segments
Prior to July 2024, we aggregated our operating segments into three reportable segments: refining, logistics, and retail. However, in July 2024, we entered into a definitive equity purchase agreement (the "Retail Purchase Agreement") with FEMSA. Under the terms of the Retail Purchase Agreement, Delek agreed to sell, and FEMSA has agreed to purchase, 100% of the equity interests in four of Delek’s wholly-owned subsidiaries that owned and operated 249 retail fuel and convenience stores; the Retail Stores (the "Retail Transaction"). On September 30, 2024, the Retail Transaction closed. As a result of the Retail Purchase Agreement, we met the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations ("ASC 205-20") and ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment ("ASC 360") to report the results of the Retail Stores as discontinued operations and to classify the Retail Stores as a group of discontinued operations assets.
During the second quarter of 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.
39 |
Management's Discussion and Analysis
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.
Refining Overview
The refining segment processes crude oil and other feedstocks for the manufacture of transportation motor fuels, including various grades of gasoline, diesel fuel, aviation fuel, asphalt and other petroleum-based products that are distributed through owned and third-party product terminals. The refining segment has a combined nameplate capacity of 302,000 bpd as of June 30, 2025. A high-level summary of the refinery activities is presented below:
Tyler, Texas refinery
(the "Tyler refinery") El Dorado, Arkansas refinery
(the "El Dorado refinery") Big Spring, Texas refinery (the "Big Spring refinery") Krotz Springs, Louisiana refinery
(the "Krotz Springs refinery")
Total Nameplate Capacity (bpd) 75,000 80,000 73,000 74,000
Primary Products Gasoline, jet fuel, ultra-low-sulfur diesel, liquefied petroleum gases, propylene, petroleum coke and sulfur Gasoline, jet fuel, ultra-low-sulfur diesel, liquefied petroleum gases, propylene, asphalt and sulfur Gasoline, jet fuel, ultra-low-sulfur diesel, liquefied petroleum gases, propylene, aromatics and sulfur Gasoline, jet fuel, high-sulfur diesel, light cycle oil, liquefied petroleum gases, propylene and ammonium thiosulfate
Relevant Crack Spread Benchmark Gulf Coast 5-3-2
Gulf Coast 5-3-2 (1)
Gulf Coast 3-2-1 (2)
Gulf Coast 2-1-1 (3)
Marketing and Distribution The refining segment's petroleum-based products are marketed primarily in the south central and southwestern regions of the United States, and the refining segment also ships and sells gasoline into wholesale markets in the southern and eastern United States. In addition, we sell motor fuels through our wholesale distribution network on an unbranded basis.
(1) While there is variability in the crude slate and the product output at the El Dorado refinery, we compare our per barrel refined product margin to the U.S. Gulf Coast ("Gulf Coast") 5-3-2 crack spread because we believe it to be the most closely aligned benchmark.
(2) Our Big Spring refinery is capable of processing substantial volumes of sour crude oil, which has historically cost less than intermediate, and/or substantial volumes of sweet crude oil, and therefore the WTI Cushing/ West Texas Sour ("WTS") price differential, taking into account differences in production yield, is an important measure for helping us make strategic, market-respondent production decisions.
(3) The Krotz Springs refinery has the capability to process substantial volumes of light sweet crude oil to produce a high percentage of refined light products.
Our refining segment also owns three biodiesel facilities involved in the production of biodiesel fuels and related activities, located in Crossett, Arkansas, Cleburne, Texas, and New Albany, Mississippi. During the second quarter of 2024, we made the decision to idle the biodiesel facilities, while exploring viable and sustainable alternatives. In addition, the refining segment includes our wholesale crude operations and our 50% interest in a joint venture that owns asphalt terminals located in the southwestern region of the U.S.
Logistics Overview
Our logistics segment gathers, transports and stores crude oil and natural gas; markets, distributes, transports and stores refined products; and disposes and recycles water in select regions of the southeastern United States, West Texas, New Mexico and North Dakota for our refining segment and third parties. It is comprised of the consolidated balance sheet and results of operations of Delek Logistics (NYSE: DKL), where we owned a 63.3% interest at June 30, 2025. Delek Logistics was formed by Delek in 2012 to own, operate, acquire and construct crude oil and refined products logistics and marketing assets. Majority of Delek Logistics' assets are currently integral to our refining and marketing operations. The logistics segment's gathering and processing business owns or leases capacity on approximately 398 miles of crude oil transportation pipelines, approximately 406 miles of refined product pipelines, and an approximately 1,400-mile crude oil gathering system of which 489 miles is decommissioned. In addition, this segment also includes water disposal and recycling operations, located in the Delaware Basin of New Mexico, the Midland Basin of Texas and the Bakken Basin of North Dakota. The storage and transportation business owns or leases associated crude oil storage tanks. The logistics segment has an aggregate of approximately 11.2 million barrels of active shell capacity. It also owns and operates nine light product terminals and markets light products using third-party terminals. Logistics has strategic investments in pipeline joint ventures that provide access to pipeline capacity as well as the potential for earnings from joint venture operations. The logistics segment owns or leases approximately 161 tractors and 306 trailers used to haul primarily crude oil and other products for related and third parties.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Strategic Objectives
It is vitally important that our strategic objectives, especially in view of the evolutionary direction of our macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, involve a process of continuous evaluation of our business model in terms of cost structure, as well as long-term economic and operational sustainability. More consolidation in our industry is expected from increased cost pressures due in part to the regulatory environment continuing to move towards reducing carbon emissions and transitioning to renewable energy in the long-term. However, we believe we are uniquely positioned as a leader in operating and excelling in niche markets and could continue capitalizing on our niche position by being the supplier of choice in our markets.
Key Objectives
Certain fundamental principles are foundational to our long-term strategy and direct us as we develop our strategic objectives. With that in mind, we have identified the following overarching key objectives:
I. Operational Excellence
II. Financial Strength and Flexibility
III. Strategic Initiatives
Operational Excellence
We are committed to operational excellence which includes maintaining safe, reliable, and environmentally responsible operations. It also encompasses the dedication and drive for constant improvement across our operations in reliability, safety, and efficiency. Delek prioritizes stewardship of the environment, and we focus on how to positively impact our shareholders, employees, customers, and the communities where we operate. We believe that focusing on people, processes and equipment will lead to improved utilization and yields and ultimately better employee retention and lower costs, which translates to improved returns for our shareholders. For 2025, we are focused on the following:
• Prioritize safety and environmental compliance by the continued implementation of foundational best practices to increase operations ability to provide safe, compliant, and reliable operations.
• Focus on operational excellence by building out our operations centric area business teams, as well as other key competency training.
• Identify and execute on low-capital organic growth projects that improve yield and increase utilization.
• Continue our progression of digital system implementations that will do the following:
◦ improve our ability to understand all aspects of our business as well as our ability to make real-time and forward-looking operational decisions; and
◦ automate processes and shift operational roles to higher value-added activities.
Financial Strength and Flexibility
In our industry, as with many volatile businesses, it is very important to make capital investments with accretive returns and maintain a strong balance sheet. We want to reward our shareholders and investors with a disciplined and balanced capital allocation framework, which we believe will strengthen shareholder value by, among other things, a stable dividend complemented by opportunistic share repurchases. We are also committed to lowering costs and improving the efficiency of our cost structure in all aspects of our business. For 2025, we are focused on the following:
• Reward our shareholders and investors with a disciplined and balanced capital allocation framework, including opportunities to strengthen our balance sheet by reducing debt or opportunistically repurchasing shares with excess cash.
• Build on the “zero-based budget” cost saving plan completed in 2024, with a comprehensive margin enhancement plan included within the EOP. The EOP initiatives are focused on improving our financial health and ability to generate free cash flow. The EOP includes leaner costs including lower general and administrative expenses, lower operating expenses specifically at our refineries and lowering interest expense. The EOP also includes margin initiatives including accretive, minimal capital projects in our refining segment and commercial improvements through market optionality, improved Delek Logistics and product slate optimization.
Strategic Initiatives
For 2025, we will continue to focus on furthering our "sum of the parts" efforts, focusing on the following:
• Execute on our strategic initiatives, which may include opportunities to monetize our investment in Delek Logistics. The goal being to help unlock value embedded in the Delek valuation, along with deconsolidating Delek Logistics by reducing Delek's ownership in Delek Logistics.
• Identify and evaluate investment opportunities that fit our sustainability view and integrate into our current asset footprint, including strategic investments or joint ventures in renewables or carbon capture and incubator investments in new technologies.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
2025 Strategic Developments
The following table highlights our 2025 Strategic Developments:
2025 Key Initiatives
2025 Strategic Developments
Operational Excellence Financial Strength & Flexibility Strategic Initiatives
Executing Strategic Midstream Acquisition:
On January 2, 2025, Delek Logistics acquired 100% of Gravity from Gravity Water Holdings LLC related to water disposal and recycling operations in the Permian Basin and the Bakken for total consideration of $300.8 million, subject to customary adjustments for net working capital. The purchase price was comprised of $209.3 million in cash and 2,175,209 of Delek Logistics’ common units. This transaction further enhances Delek Logistics' position as full service (crude, natural gas and water) provider in the Permian basin. The acquisition is synergistic to Delek Logistics' recent acquisition of H2O Midstream and supplements Delek Logistics' integrated crude and produced water gathering and disposal offering in the Midland Basin.
ü
Adding Flexibility to the Inventory Intermediation Agreement:
On February 21, 2025, DKTS amended the Inventory Intermediation Agreement to, among other things, (i) extend the term of the Inventory Intermediation Agreement from January 31, 2026 to January 31, 2027 and (ii) include a mechanism for DKTS to nominate each month whether to include volumes related to the Krotz Springs refinery for funding under the Inventory Intermediation Agreement. This amendment reduces interest expense and other associated fees while increasing our flexibility on liquidity and inventory financing options.
ü
Increasing Shareholder Value by Executing Buybacks:
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, 2,694,470 shares of our common stock were repurchased and cancelled at the time of the transaction for a total of $44.4 million. As of June 30, 2025, there was $499.1 million of authorization remaining under Delek's aggregate stock repurchase program.
ü
Monetizing Our Investment in Delek Logistics:
On February 24, 2025, we entered into a Common Unit Purchase Agreement with Delek Logistics (the “Common Unit Purchase Agreement”) whereby Delek Logistics may repurchase common units from time to time from us in one or more transactions for an aggregate purchase price of up to $150.0 million through December 31, 2026. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, 243,075 common units were repurchased from us and cancelled at the time of the transaction for a total of $10.0 million. As of June 30, 2025, there was $140.0 million of authorization remaining under the Common Unit Repurchase Agreement.
ü ü
Expanding Delek Logistics' Natural Gas Processing Capability:
In April 2025, Delek Logistics began commissioning its new natural gas processing plant adjacent to its plant in the Permian Basin. The new plant has a capacity of approximately 110 MMcf/d and aims to meet the rising demand for natural gas in the region. This expansion project will also increase Delek Logistics' third party revenue. Expected annual EBITDA is estimated to be approximately $40.0 million attributable to Delek Logistics.
ü
Executing Strategic Transactions with Delek Logistics:
On May 1, 2025, we entered into additional agreements with Delek Logistics, which among other things, transfers the Delek Permian Gathering purchasing and blending activities to Delek Logistics including all of our rights and obligations to purchase crude oil under certain contracts associated with Delek Logistics’ existing Midland Gathering System and brings back the El Dorado rail facility assets to the Refining Segment on January 1, 2026, subject to certain closing conditions as set forth in the El Dorado Purchase Agreement. These transactions put additional midstream commercial activities in Delek Logistics and bring refining related activities and assets back to the Refining Segment. Additionally, these transactions increase consolidated financial availability by approximately $250 million.
ü ü
Extending Long Term Debt Maturities:
On June 30, 2025, Delek Logistics and its wholly owned subsidiary Delek Logistics Finance Corp. (“Finance Corp.” and together with Delek Logistics, the “Co-issuers”), sold $700.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Co-issuers 7.325% Senior Notes due 2033, at par. Net proceeds were used to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the Delek Logistics Revolving Facility providing Delek Logistics with $1.1 billion of availability on the facility as of June 30, 2025.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Market Trends
Our results of operations are significantly affected by fluctuations in the prices of certain commodities, including, but not limited to, crude oil, gasoline, distillate fuel, biofuels, natural gas and electricity, among others. Historically, the impact of commodity price volatility on our refining margins (as defined in our "Non-GAAP Measures" in MD&A Item 2), specifically as it relates to the price of crude oil as compared to the price of refined products and timing differences in the movements of those prices (subject to our inventory costing methodology), as well as location differentials, may be favorable or unfavorable compared to peers. Additionally, our refining margin profitability is impacted by regulatory factors, including the cost of renewable identification numbers ("RINs").
We have positioned the Company to continue to run safely, reliably and environmentally responsibly while leveraging our Delek Logistics business. Crack spreads have increased two consecutive quarters since Q4 2024 providing the highest crack spreads since the first quarter of 2024. 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 rationalization to 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. 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.
See below for further discussion on how certain key market trends impact our operating results.
Crude Prices
WTI crude oil represents the largest component of our crude slate at all of our refineries and can be sourced through our gathering channels or optimization efforts from Midland, Texas, Cushing, Oklahoma or other locations. We manage our supply chain risk to ensure that we have the barrels to meet our crude slate consumption plan for each month through gathering supply contracts and throughput agreements on various strategic pipelines, some of which include those where we hold equity method investments. We manage market price risk on crude oil through financial derivative hedges, in accordance with our risk management strategies.
The table below reflects the quarterly average prices of WTI Midland and WTI Cushing crude oil for each of the quarterly periods in 2024 and for the two quarterly periods in 2025.
Crude Pricing Differentials
Historically, domestic refiners have benefited from the discount for WTI Cushing compared to Brent, a global benchmark crude. This generally leads to higher margins in our refineries, as refined product prices are influenced by Brent crude prices and the majority of our crude supply is WTI-linked. Because of our positioning in the Permian basin, including our access to significant sources of WTI Midland crude through our gathering system, we are even further benefited by discounts for WTI Midland/WTI Cushing differentials. When these discounts shrink or become premiums, our reliance on WTI-linked crude pricing, and specifically WTI Midland crude, can negatively impact our refining margins. Conversely, as these price discounts widen, so does our competitive advantage, created specifically by our access to WTI Midland crude sourced through our gathering systems.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
The chart below illustrates the key differentials impacting our refining operations, including WTI Cushing to Brent, WTI Midland to WTI Cushing, and Louisiana Light Sweet crude oil ("LLS") to WTI Cushing for each of the quarterly periods in 2024 and for the two quarterly periods in 2025.
Refined Product Prices
We are impacted by refined product prices in two ways: (1) in terms of the prices we are able to sell our refined product for in our refining segment, and (2) in terms of the cost to acquire the refined products to meet refining production shortfalls (e.g., when we have outages), or to acquire refined fuel products we sell to our wholesale customers in our logistics segment. These prices largely depend on numerous factors beyond our control, including the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, gasoline and other refined petroleum products which, in turn, depend on, among other factors, changes in domestic and foreign economies, weather conditions, domestic and foreign political affairs, production levels, the availability of imports, the marketing of competitive fuels and government regulation.
Our refineries produce the following products:

Management's Discussion and Analysis
The charts below illustrate the quarterly average prices of Gulf Coast Gasoline ("CBOB"), U.S. High Sulfur Diesel ("HSD") and U.S. Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel ("ULSD") for each of the quarterly periods in 2024 and for the two quarterly periods in 2025.
Crack Spreads
Crack spreads are used as benchmarks for predicting and evaluating a refinery's product margins by measuring the difference between the market price of feedstocks/crude oil and the resultant refined products. Generally, a crack spread represents the approximate refining margin resulting from processing one barrel of crude oil into its outputs, generally gasoline and diesel fuel.
The table below reflects the quarterly average Gulf Coast 5-3-2 ULSD, 3-2-1 ULSD and 2-1-1 HSD/LLS crack spreads for each of the quarterly periods in 2024 and for the two quarterly periods in 2025.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
RIN Volatility
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 the costs of our credits for commitments required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to blend biofuels into fuel products ("RINs Obligation"). 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.
The chart below illustrates the volatility in RINs for each of the quarterly periods in 2024 and for the two quarterly periods in 2025.
Energy Costs
Energy costs are a significant element of our refining segment's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("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 the 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 makes 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.
The chart below illustrates the quarterly average prices of Waha (Permian Basin) and Henry Hub (Gulf Coast) per million British Thermal Units ("MMBtu") for each of the quarterly periods in 2024 and for the two quarterly periods in 2025.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Non-GAAP Measures
Our management uses certain non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“non-GAAP”) operational measures to evaluate our operating segment performance and non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate past performance and prospects for the future to supplement our GAAP financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These financial and operational non-GAAP measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include:
• EBITDA - calculated as net income (loss) attributable to Delek adjusted to add back interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization; and
• Refining margin - calculated as gross margin (which we define as sales minus cost of sales) adjusted for operating expenses and depreciation and amortization included in cost of sales.
We believe these non-GAAP operational and financial measures are useful to investors, lenders, ratings agencies and analysts to assess our ongoing performance because, when reconciled to their most comparable GAAP financial measure, they provide improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance and they may obscure our underlying results and trends.
Non-GAAP measures have important limitations as analytical tools, because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect net earnings and operating income. These measures should not be considered substitutes for their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.

• an increase in pre-tax net loss of $60.8 million; and
• our effective tax rates were 13.6% and 20.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, due to the impact of fixed dollar permanent differences on the tax rate and changes to valuation allowances on certain attributes.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded an income tax benefit of $50.9 million from continuing operations compared to an income tax benefit of $16.4 million from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily driven by the following:
• an increase in pre-tax net loss of $219.8 million; and
• our effective tax rates were 17.1% and 20.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, due to the impact of fixed dollar favorable permanent differences and changes in valuation allowance on certain attributes when calculating an estimated annual effective tax rate.

Refining segment EBITDA $ 95.1 $ 17.3 $ 78.9 $ 122.4
Factors Impacting Refining Profitability
Our profitability in the refining segment is substantially determined by the difference between the cost of the crude oil feedstocks we purchase and the price of the refined products we sell, referred to as the "crack spread", "refining margin" or "refined product margin". Refining margin is used as a metric to assess a refinery's product margins against market crack spread trends, where "crack spread" is a measure of the difference between market prices for crude oil and refined products and is a commonly used proxy within the industry to estimate or identify trends in refining margins.
The cost to acquire feedstocks and the price of the refined petroleum products we ultimately sell from our refineries depend on numerous factors beyond our control, including the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, gasoline and other refined petroleum products which, in turn, depend on, among other factors, changes in domestic and foreign economies, weather conditions such as hurricanes or tornadoes, local, domestic and foreign political affairs, global conflict, production levels, the availability of imports, the marketing of competitive fuels and government regulation. Other significant factors that influence our results in the refining segment include operating costs (particularly the cost of natural gas used for fuel and the cost of electricity), seasonal factors, refinery utilization rates and planned or unplanned maintenance activities or turnarounds. Moreover, while the fluctuations in the cost of crude oil are typically reflected in the prices of light refined products, such as gasoline and diesel fuel, the price of other residual products, such as asphalt, coke, carbon black oil and liquefied petroleum gas ("LPG") are less likely to move in parallel with crude cost. This could cause additional pressure on our realized margin during periods of rising or falling crude oil prices.
Additionally, our margins are impacted by the pricing differentials of the various types and sources of crude oil we use at our refineries and their relation to product pricing. Our crude slate is predominantly comprised of WTI crude oil. Therefore, favorable differentials of WTI compared to other crude will favorably impact our operating results, and vice versa. Additionally, because of our gathering system presence in the Midland area and the significant source of crude specifically from that region into our network, a widening of the WTI Cushing less WTI Midland spread will favorably influence the operating margin for our refineries. Alternatively, a narrowing of this differential will have an adverse effect on our operating margins. Global product prices are influenced by the price of Brent, which is a global benchmark crude. Global product prices influence product prices in the U.S. As a result, our refineries are influenced by the spread between Brent and WTI Midland. The Brent less WTI Midland spread represents the differential between the average per barrel price of Brent crude oil and the average per barrel price of WTI Midland crude oil. A widening of the spread between Brent and WTI Midland will favorably influence our refineries' operating margins. Also, the Krotz Springs refinery is influenced by the spread between Brent and LLS. The Brent less LLS spread represents the differential between the average per barrel price of Brent and the average per barrel price of LLS crude oil. A discount in LLS relative to Brent will favorably influence the Krotz Springs refinery operating margin.
Finally, Refining EBITDA is impacted by regulatory costs associated with the cost of RINs as well as energy costs, including the cost of natural gas. In periods of unfavorable regulatory sentiment, RINs prices can increase at higher rates than crack spreads, or even when crack spreads are declining. This can be particularly impactful on smaller refineries, where the operating cost structure does not have as much scalability as larger refineries. Additionally, volatility in energy costs, which are captured in our operating expenses and impact our Refining EBITDA, can significantly impact our ability to capture crack spreads, with natural gas representing the most significant component. Within Delek’s geographic footprint, we source the majority of our natural gas from the Gulf Coast, and secondarily from the Permian, and we do not currently have the capability at our refineries to switch our energy consumption to utilize alternative sources of fuel. For this reason, unfavorable Gulf Coast (Henry Hub) differentials can impact our crack spread capture.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
The cost to acquire the refined fuel products we sell to our wholesale customers in our logistics segment largely depends on numerous factors beyond our control, including the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, gasoline and other refined petroleum products which, in turn, depend on, among other factors, changes in domestic and foreign economies, weather conditions, domestic and foreign political affairs, production levels, the availability of imports, the marketing of competitive fuels and government regulation.
In addition to the above, it continues to be a strategic and operational objective to manage price and supply risk related to crude oil that is used in refinery production, and to develop strategic sourcing relationships. For that purpose, from a pricing perspective, we enter into commodity derivative contracts to manage our price exposure to our inventory positions, future purchases of crude oil and ethanol, future sales of refined products or to fix margins on future production. We also enter into future commitments to purchase or sell RINs at fixed prices and quantities, which are used to manage our RINs Obligation. Additionally, from a sourcing perspective, we often enter into purchase and sale contracts with vendors and customers or take physical or financial commodity positions for crude oil that may not be used immediately in production, but that may be used to manage the overall supply and availability of crude expected to ultimately be needed for production and/or to meet minimum requirements under strategic pipeline arrangements, and also to optimize and hedge availability risks associated with crude that we ultimately expect to use in production. Such transactions are inherently based on certain assumptions and judgments made about the current and possible future availability of crude. Therefore, when we take physical or financial positions for optimization purposes, our intent is generally to take offsetting positions in quantities and at prices that will advance these objectives while minimizing our positional and financial statement risk. However, because of the volatility of the market in terms of pricing and availability, it is possible that we may have material positions with timing differences or, more rarely, that we are unable to cover a position with an offsetting position as intended. Such differences could have a material impact on the classification of resulting gains/losses, assets or liabilities, and could also significantly impact Refining EBITDA.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Refining Segment Operational Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 versus the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
Revenues
Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Revenues for the refining segment decreased by $590.4 million, or 17.9%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the following:
• a decrease in the average price of U.S. Gulf Coast gasoline of 15.2%, ULSD of 14.8% and U.S. Gulf Coast HSD of 2.1%; and
• a decrease in sales volumes (including purchased products).
Net revenues included sales to our logistics segment of $84.4 million and $106.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. We eliminate this intercompany revenue in consolidation.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Revenues for the refining segment decreased $1,090.4 million, or 17.0%, in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the following:
• a decrease in the average price of U.S. Gulf Coast gasoline of 13.3% and ULSD of 13.4%; and
• a decrease in sales volumes (including purchased products).
These decreases were partially offset by the following:
• an increase in the average price of U.S. Gulf Coast HSD of 3.1%.
Revenues included sales to our logistics segment of $174.4 million and $199.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We eliminate this intercompany revenue in consolidation.
Cost of Materials and Other
Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Cost of materials and other decreased by $671.9 million, or 21.3%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the following:
• decreases in the cost of WTI Cushing crude oil, from an average of $80.83 per barrel to an average of $63.81, or 21.1%, and decreases in the cost of WTI Midland crude oil, from an average of $81.73 per barrel to an average of $64.42, or 21.2%;
• a decrease in sales volume (including purchased products); and
• a decrease in lease expense as a result of reclassification of certain fees with Delek Logistics from lease expense to interest expense under finance lease accounting. These finance leases have no impact to the Delek US consolidated results as these amounts eliminate in consolidation.
These decreases were partially offset by the following:
• an increase in RINs pricing.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Cost of materials and other decreased $1,040.9 million, or 17.4%, in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by the following:
• decreases in the cost of WTI Cushing crude oil, from an average of $78.95 per barrel to an average of $67.61, or 14.4%; and decreases in the cost of WTI Midland crude oil, from an average of $80.17 per barrel to an average of $68.44, or 14.6%;
• a decrease in sales volumes (including purchased products); and
• a decrease in lease expense as a result of reclassification of certain fees with Delek Logistics from lease expense to interest expense under finance lease accounting. These finance leases have no impact to the Delek US consolidated results as these amounts eliminate in consolidation.
These decreases were partially offset by the following:
• an increase in RINs pricing.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
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 minimum volume commitments. These costs and fees were $114.0 million and $156.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These costs and fees were $239.9 million and $295.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We eliminate these intercompany fees in consolidation.
Operating Expenses
Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Operating expenses increased by $1.9 million, or 1.3%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, driven by the following:
• higher natural gas prices in 2025; and
• an increased outside services.
These increases were partially offset by the following:
• a decrease in insurance costs and lease and rental costs.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Operating expenses decreased $5.8 million, or 1.8%, in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily driven by the following:
• a decrease in employee costs, insurance costs, and lease and rental costs.
These decreases were partially offset by the following:
• higher natural gas prices; and
• an increase in outside services.
Refining Margin
Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Refining segment margin increased by $81.5 million, or 52.0%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, with a refining margin percentage of 8.8% as compared to 4.7% for the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily driven by the following:
• a 11.4% increase in the 5-3-2 crack spread (the primary measure for the Tyler refinery and El Dorado refinery), a 11.8% increase in the average Gulf Coast 3-2-1 crack spread (the primary measure for the Big Spring refinery) and a 10.8% increase in the average Gulf Coast 2-1-1 crack spread (the primary measure for the Krotz Springs refinery); and
• a decrease in lease expense as a result of reclassification of certain fees with Delek Logistics from lease expense to interest expense under finance lease accounting. These finance leases have no impact to the Delek US consolidated results as these amounts eliminate in consolidation.
These increases were partially offset by the following:
• a decrease in sales volume; and
• an increase in RINs pricing.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Refining margin decreased by $49.5 million, or 11.6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, with a refining margin percentage of 7.1% as compared to 6.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily driven by the following:
• a 9.5% decrease in the 5-3-2 crack spread (the primary measure for the Tyler refinery and El Dorado refinery), a 9.2% decrease in the average Gulf Coast 3-2-1 crack spread (the primary measure for the Big Spring refinery) and a 17.3% decrease in the average Gulf Coast 2-1-1 crack spread (the primary measure for the Krotz Springs refinery);
• a decrease in sales volumes (including purchased products); and
• an increase in RINs pricing.

Logistics revenue is largely based on fixed-fee or tariff rates charged for throughput volumes running through our logistics network, where many of those volumes are contractually protected by minimum volume commitments ("MVCs"). To the extent that our logistics volumes are not subject to MVCs, our Logistics revenue may be negatively impacted in periods where our customers are experiencing economic pressures or reductions in demand for their products. Additionally, certain of our throughput arrangements contain deficiency credit provisions that may require us to defer excess MVC fees collected over actual throughputs to apply toward MVC deficiencies in future periods. With respect to our equity method investments in pipeline joint ventures, our earnings from those investments (which is based on our pro rata ownership percentage of the joint venture's recognized net income or loss) are directly impacted by the operations of those joint ventures. Items impacting the joint venture net income (loss) may include (but are not limited to) the following: long-term throughput contractual arrangements and related MVCs and, in some cases, deficiency credit provisions; the demand for walk-up nominations; applicable rates or tariffs; long-lived asset or other impairments assessed at the joint venture level; and pipeline releases or other contingent liabilities. With respect to our West Texas marketing activities, our profitability is dependent upon the cost of landed product versus the rack price of refined product sold. Our logistics segment is generally protected from commodity price risk because inventory is purchased and then immediately sold at the rack.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Logistics Segment Operational Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 versus the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
Revenues
Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Net revenues decreased by $18.2 million, or 6.9%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by:
• decreased revenue of $18.4 million in our West Texas marketing operations driven by decreases in average sales prices per gallon, a net decrease in volumes sold, partially offset by an increase in RINs revenue:
◦ the average sales prices per gallon of gasoline and diesel sold decreased by $0.34 and $0.33 per gallon, respectively;
◦ the volumes of gasoline sold decreased by 2.7 million and the volumes of diesel sold increased by 0.3 million gallons;
◦ RINs revenue increased from $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2024 to $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2025, due to increases in RINs prices; and
• decrease of $7.4 million due to the assignment of the Big Spring refinery marketing agreement to Delek Holdings in the third quarter of 2024;
• decrease due to recording certain throughput fees as interest income under sales-type lease accounting that were previously recorded as revenue in the prior year period; and
• partially offset by incremental revenue associated with Gravity and H2O Midstream acquisitions of $15.3 million and $24.0 million, respectively.
Net revenues included sales to our refining segment of $114.0 million and $156.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively, and sales to corporate and other of $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the three months June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We eliminate this intercompany revenue in consolidation.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Net revenues decreased by $20.4 million, or 3.9%, in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily driven by the following:
• decreased revenue of $21.1 million in our West Texas marketing operations primarily driven by decreases in average sales prices per gallon, partially offset by net increases in volumes sold and an increase in RINs revenue:
◦ the average sales prices per gallon of gasoline and diesel sold decreased by $0.28 and $0.32 per gallon, respectively;
◦ the volumes of diesel sold increased by 2.0 million and the average volumes of gasoline sold decreased by 1.6 million gallons; and
◦ RINs revenue increased from $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 to $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, due to increased RINs prices.
• decrease due to recording certain throughput fees as interest income under sales-type lease accounting that were previously recorded as revenue in the prior year period;
• decrease of $14.2 million due to the assignment of the Big Spring Refinery marketing agreement to Delek Holdings in the third quarter of 2024; and
• partially offset by incremental revenue associated with the Gravity and H2O Midstream Acquisitions of $46.8 million and $31.8 million, respectively.
Revenues included sales to our refining segment of $239.9 million and $295.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and sales to corporate and other of $0.5 million and $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We eliminate this intercompany revenue in consolidation.
Cost of Materials and Other
Q2 2025 vs. Q2 2024
Cost of materials and other for the logistics segment decreased by $18.8 million, or 13.6%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the following:
• decreased costs of materials and other of $19.3 million in our West Texas marketing operations primarily driven by decreases in average cost per gallon of gasoline and diesel sold and net decrease in volumes sold:
◦ the average cost per gallon of gasoline and diesel sold decreased by $0.31 per gallon and $0.36 per gallon, respectively; and
64 |
Management's Discussion and Analysis
◦ the volumes of gasoline sold decreased by 2.7 million and the volumes of diesel sold increased by 0.3 million gallons.
• incremental costs associated with the H2O Midstream and Gravity Acquisitions of $0.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
Our logistics segment purchased product from our refining segment of $84.4 million and $106.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. We eliminate these intercompany costs in consolidation.
YTD 2025 vs. YTD 2024
Cost of materials and other for the logistics segment decreased by $13.4 million, or 5.1%, in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by the following:
• decreased costs of materials and other of $21.7 million in our West Texas marketing operations was primarily driven by decrease in average cost per gallon, partially offset by net increase in volumes sold:
◦ the average cost per gallon of gasoline and diesel sold decreased by $0.24 per gallon and $0.33 per gallon, respectively;
◦ the volumes of diesel sold increased by 2.0 million gallons, and the volumes of gasoline sold decreased by 1.6 million; and
• incremental costs associated with the H2O Midstream and Gravity Acquisitions of $1.7 million and $4.7 million, respectively.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Capital
Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are
• cash generated from our operating activities;
• borrowings under our debt facilities; and
• potential issuances of additional equity and debt securities.
At June 30, 2025, our total liquidity amounted to $2,385.2 million comprised primarily of $1,769.7 million in unused credit commitments under our revolving credit facilities (as discussed in Note 10 of our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1. Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) and $615.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. Historically, we have generated adequate cash from operations to fund ongoing working capital requirements, pay quarterly cash dividends, repurchase common stock and fund operational capital expenditures. On July 30, 2025, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.255 per share of our common stock. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, 685,050 and 2,694,470, respectively, shares of our common stock were repurchased and cancelled at the time of the transaction for a total of $12.9 million and $44.4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, there was $499.1 million of authorization remaining under Delek's aggregate stock repurchase program.
Other funding sources including borrowings under existing credit agreements, and issuance of equity and debt securities have been utilized to meet our funding requirements and support our growth capital projects and acquisitions. In addition, we have historically been able to source funding at terms that reflect market conditions, our financial position and our credit ratings and expect future funding sources to be at terms that are sustainable and profitable for the Company. However, there can be no assurances regarding the availability of future debt or equity financings or whether such financings can be made available on terms that are acceptable to us; any execution of such financing activities will be dependent on the contemporaneous availability of functioning debt or equity markets. Additionally, new debt financing activities will be subject to the satisfaction of any debt incurrence limitation covenants in our existing financing agreements. Our debt limitation covenants in our existing financing documents are usual and customary for credit agreements of our type and reflective of market conditions at the time of their execution. Additionally, our ability to satisfy working capital requirements, to service our debt obligations, to fund planned capital expenditures, to pay dividends and repurchase common stock will depend upon future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in the oil industry and other financial and business factors, including oil prices, some of which are beyond our control.
As of June 30, 2025, we believe we were in compliance with all of our debt maintenance covenants, where the most significant long-term obligation subject to such covenants was the Delek Term Loan Credit Facility (see further discussion in Note 10 of our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1. Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Additionally, we were in compliance with covenants during the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Failure to meet the incurrence covenants could impose certain incremental restrictions on our ability to incur new debt and also may limit whether and the extent to which we may pay dividends, as well as impose additional restrictions on our ability to repurchase our stock, make new investments and incur new liens (among others). Such restrictions would generally remain in place until such a quarter that we return to compliance under the applicable incurrence based covenants. In the event that we are subject to these incremental restrictions, we believe that we have sufficient current and alternative sources of liquidity, including (but not limited to): available borrowings under our existing Delek Revolving Credit Facility, and for Delek Logistics, under its Delek Logistics Revolving Facility; the allowance to incur an additional $400.0 million of secured debt under the Delek Term Loan Credit Facility (see further discussion of these facilities in Note 10 of our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1. Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q); as well as the possibility of obtaining other secured and unsecured debt, raising capital through equity issuance, or taking advantage of transactional financing opportunities such as sale-leasebacks or joint ventures, as otherwise contemplated and allowed under our incurrence covenants.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Continuing Operations
Net cash used by operating activities from continuing operations was $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net cash provided by of $101.0 million for the comparable period of 2024. The decreases were a result of cash receipts from customers and cash payments to suppliers and for salaries resulting in a net $90.2 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities and an increase in cash paid for debt interest of $18.4 million.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Continuing Operations
Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $477.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $89.0 million in the comparable period of 2024. The increase in cash flows used in investing activities was primarily due to the $300.8 million acquisition of Gravity of which $186.5 million was paid in cash, $183.3 million increase in purchases of property, plant and equipment and a reduction in insurance and settlement proceeds of $11.8 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Continuing Operations
Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations was $368.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to cash used of $178.5 million in the comparable 2024 period. The decrease in cash used was primarily due to net payments on long-term revolvers of $354.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to net payments of $450.3 million in the comparable 2024 period, net proceeds on product and other financing arrangements of $162.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to net payments of $102.1 million in the comparable 2024 period and net proceeds of term debt of $695.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to net proceeds on term debt of $316.4 million in the comparable 2024 period, primarily related to the issuance of the Delek Logistics 2033 Notes and the related repayment on the Delek Logistics Revolving Facility.
These increases in cash flows were partially offset by the receipt of net proceeds of $132.2 million from the Delek Logistics' public offerings of common units in the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $44.4 million in share buybacks and a $19.7 million increase in distributions to non-controlling interests.
Cash Position and Indebtedness
As of June 30, 2025, our total cash and cash equivalents were $615.5 million, and we had total long-term indebtedness of approximately $3,100.7 million. The total long-term indebtedness is net of deferred financing costs and debt discount of $56.4 million. Additionally, we had letters of credit issued of approximately $424.4 million. Total unused credit commitments or borrowing base availability, as applicable, under our revolving credit facilities was approximately $1,769.7 million. The increase of $340.7 million in total long-term principal indebtedness as of June 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024 resulted primarily from the issuance of the Delek Logistics 2033 Notes and a decrease in net borrowings under the Delek Logistics Revolving Facility. As of June 30, 2025, our total long-term indebtedness (as defined in Note 10 of the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1. Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) consisted of the following:
• the Delek Revolving Credit Facility with no outstanding borrowings (maturity of October 26, 2027);
• aggregate principal of $926.2 million under the Delek Term Loan Credit Facility (maturity of November 19, 2029 and effective interest of 8.43%);
68 |
Management's Discussion and Analysis
• aggregate principal of $80.9 million under the Delek Logistics Revolving Facility (maturity of October 13, 2027 and average borrowing rate of 7.72%);
• aggregate principal of $400.0 million under the Delek Logistics 2028 Notes (due in 2028, with effective interest rate of 7.38%);
• aggregate principal of $1,050.0 million under the Delek Logistics 2029 Notes (due in 2029, with effective interest rate of 8.80%);
• aggregate principal of $700.0 million under the Delek Logistics 2033 Notes (due in 2033, with effective interest rate of 7.64%);and
• the United Community Bank Revolver with no outstanding borrowings (maturity of June 30, 2026).
Additionally, we utilize other financing arrangements to finance operating assets and/or, from time to time, to monetize other assets that may not be needed in the near term, when internal cost of capital and other criteria are met. Such arrangements include our inventory intermediation arrangement, which finances a significant portion of our first-in, first-out inventory at the refineries and, from time to time, RINs or other non-inventory product financing liabilities and funded letters of credit. Our inventory intermediation obligation with Citi was $388.4 million at June 30, 2025. See Note 9 of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1. Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information about our inventory intermediation agreement. Our product financing liabilities consisted primarily of RIN financings as of June 30, 2025, and totaled $335.0 million, all of which is due in the next 12 months. See further description of these types of arrangements in the Environmental Credits and Related Regulatory Obligations accounting policy disclosed in Note 2 to our accompanying consolidated financial statements included in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of our December 31, 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For both arrangements and the related commitments, see also our "Cash Requirements" section below.
Debt Ratings
We receive debt ratings from the major ratings agencies in the U.S. In determining our debt ratings, the agencies consider a number of qualitative and quantitative items including, but not limited to, commodity pricing levels, our liquidity, asset quality, reserve mix, debt levels and seniorities, cost structure, planned asset sales and production growth opportunities.
There are no "rating triggers" in any of our contractual debt obligations that would accelerate scheduled maturities should our debt rating fall below a specified level. However, a downgrade could adversely impact our interest rate on new credit facility borrowings and the ability to economically access debt markets in the future. Additionally, any rating downgrades may increase the likelihood of us having to post additional letters of credit or cash collateral under certain contractual arrangements.
Capital Spending
A key component of our long-term strategy is our capital expenditure program. The following table summarizes our actual capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2025, by operating segment and major category (in millions):
2025 Forecast Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Actual

For additional information, see our consolidated financial statements in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of our December 31, 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Other Cash Requirements
Our material short-term cash requirements under contractual obligations are presented above, and we expect to fund the majority of those requirements with cash flows from operations. Our other cash requirements consisted of operating activities and capital expenditures. Operating activities include cash outflows related to payments to suppliers for crude and other inventories (which are largely reflected in our contractual purchase commitments in the table above) and payments for salaries and other employee related costs. Cash outlays in 2026 are planned to include incentive compensation payments that were earned and accrued in 2025. In line with our long-term sustainable strategy, future cash requirements will include initiatives to build on our long-term sustainable business model, Environmental, Social and Governance initiatives and sum of the parts initiatives.
Refer to the cash flow section for our operating activities spend during the six months ended June 30, 2025. While many of the expenses related to the operating activities are variable in nature, some of the expenditures can be somewhat fixed in the short-term due to forward planning on our level of activity.
Refer to the 'Capital Spending' section for our capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and our anticipated cash requirements for planned capital expenditures for the full year 2025.
