Last update: 19/02/2015 8:30:23 am CVR Refining Reports 2014 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results And Announces Cash Distribution of 37 Cents PR Newswire SUGAR LAND, Texas, Feb. 19, 2015 SUGAR LAND, Texas, Feb. 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CVR Refining, LP (NYSE: CVRR), a refiner and marketer of petroleum fuels, today announced net income of $358.7 million on net sales of $8,829.7 million for full year 2014, compared to net income of $590.4 million on net sales of $8,683.5 million for full year 2013. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, for full year 2014 was $621.6 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $712.0 million for the previous year. For the fourth quarter 2014, the company reported a net loss of $108.5 million on net sales of $1,772.8 million, compared to a net loss of $110.2 million on net sales of $2,360.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. Net income for the 2014 fourth quarter was negatively affected by an unfavorable first-in, first-out (FIFO) accounting impact of $154.6 million. Fourth quarter 2014 adjusted EBITDA was $104.6 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $117.5 million for the 2013 fourth quarter. "Our fourth quarter results were significantly impacted by volatile crude and product markets, which resulted in low refining margins in December," said Jack Lipinski, chief executive officer. "Our results were further impacted by a 16-day outage of the Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit at the Wynnewood refinery. "Refining margins have significantly improved since mid-January," Lipinski continued. "In addition, our refineries have operated well year to date." Consolidated Operations Fourth quarter 2014 throughputs of crude oil and all other feedstocks and blendstocks totaled 212,263 barrels per day (bpd). Throughputs of crude oil and all other feedstocks and blendstocks for both refineries totaled 216,876 bpd for the same period in 2013. Refining margin adjusted for FIFO impact per crude oil throughput barrel, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $11.28 in the 2014 fourth quarter, compared to $11.48 during the same period in 2013. Direct operating expenses, including major scheduled turnaround expenses, per barrel sold, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, for the 2014 fourth quarter was $5.76, compared to $4.27 in the fourth quarter of 2013. Distributions CVR Refining also announced today a fourth quarter 2014 distribution of 37 cents per common unit. The distribution, as set by the board of CVR Refining GP, LLC, the general partner of CVR Refining, will be paid on March 9, 2015, to unitholders of record on March 2, 2015. CVR Refining's fourth quarter cash distribution brings the cumulative cash distributions paid or declared for 2014 to $2.85 per common unit. CVR Refining, LP is a variable distribution master limited partnership. As a result, its quarterly distributions, if any, will vary from quarter to quarter due to several factors, including, but not limited to, its operating performance, fluctuations in the prices paid for crude oil and other feedstocks, as well as the prices received for finished products, and other cash reserves deemed necessary or appropriate by the board of directors of its general partner.
