|
% Change Since: -0.55%

Next Earnings Date:Jul 24, 2025
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The earnings call presented a mixed view with significant financial challenges due to asset impairments and operating losses, particularly in the Refining and Renewable Diesel segments. However, there were positive aspects such as strong shareholder returns, progress on key projects, and a resilient ethanol segment. The decision to close the Benicia refinery highlights ongoing regulatory challenges. While Valero remains committed to operational excellence and shareholder returns, the financial setbacks and regulatory issues present notable headwinds.
Company Guidance
During the Valero Energy Corporation's first quarter of 2025 earnings call, significant guidance was provided for the upcoming period. The company expects capital investments attributable to Valero for 2025 to be approximately $2 billion, with $1.6 billion allocated to sustaining the business and the rest to growth. For the second quarter, refining throughput volumes are anticipated in specific ranges across regions: Gulf Coast (1.75-1.8 million barrels per day), Mid Continent (385,000-405,000 barrels per day), West Coast (240,000-260,000 barrels per day), and North Atlantic (320,000-340,000 barrels per day). Refining cash operating expenses are expected to be $5.15 per barrel. In the renewable diesel segment, sales volumes are projected to be around 1.1 billion gallons for 2025, with operating expenses at $0.53 per gallon. The Ethanol segment is predicted to produce 4.6 million gallons per day in the second quarter, with operating expenses averaging $0.41 per gallon. Additionally, Valero plans to return $633 million to stockholders, including $356 million in dividends and $277 million in share buybacks, reflecting a payout ratio of 73% for the quarter.
Strong Shareholder Returns
Valero maintained a strong payout ratio of 73% in the first quarter and announced a 6% increase in the quarterly cash dividend.
Progress on SEC Unit Optimization Project
The SEC unit optimization project at St. Charles is estimated to cost $230 million and is expected to start up in 2026, aiming to increase the yield of high-value products.
Positive Ethanol Segment Performance
The Ethanol segment reported $20 million of operating income for Q1 2025, up from $10 million in Q1 2024.
Improved Refining Margins
Refining margins improved through the quarter with U.S. light product demand slightly higher than last year and product inventories below the same period last year.
Resumption of Mexican Import Permit
Valero's import permit in Mexico was reinstated after an initial suspension, allowing them to resume operations.
