Rhea-AI Filing Summary
HF Sinclair Corporation reported much stronger 2025 results while announcing leadership and reporting-process changes. For Q4 2025, the company posted a net loss attributable to stockholders of $28 million (vs. $214 million a year earlier) but delivered adjusted net income of $221 million, or $1.20 per diluted share. Full-year 2025 net income was $579 million, with adjusted net income of $951 million and adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 billion. HF Sinclair returned $724 million to shareholders through dividends and buybacks and declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share.
Operationally, refining margins improved sharply, supported by higher adjusted refinery gross margins and benefits from small refinery RINs waivers, while Midstream and Marketing achieved record earnings. At the same time, CEO and President Tim Go requested a voluntary leave of absence, and Board Chair Franklin Myers was appointed temporary CEO and President. The Audit Committee is assessing matters related to the company’s disclosure processes, so 2025 results are currently unaudited. The committee has determined these matters do not affect the announced 2025 results, and the company currently expects to file its Form 10-K on time.
Positive
- Strong full-year recovery: 2025 net income attributable to stockholders rose to $579 million from $177 million, with adjusted net income of $951 million and adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 billion, indicating a substantial improvement in profitability.
- Refining margin expansion: Adjusted refinery gross margin per produced barrel sold increased to $15.37 in 2025 from $10.43 in 2024, supported by higher margins in both Mid-Continent and West regions and benefits from small refinery RINs waivers.
- Robust shareholder returns and liquidity: The company returned $724 million through dividends and buybacks, maintained a $2.00 per-share annual dividend, and increased cash and cash equivalents to $978 million while keeping total debt at $2,769 million.
Negative
- Leadership uncertainty: CEO and President Tim Go has taken a voluntary leave of absence, with Board Chair Franklin Myers assuming the roles on a temporary basis while the Board evaluates longer-term leadership actions.
- Disclosure-process review and unaudited results: The Audit Committee is assessing matters related to the company’s disclosure processes, delaying completion of the 2025 audit and leaving reported results unaudited, even though the committee states these matters do not affect the announced figures.

Counterbalancing this, CEO Tim Go has taken a voluntary leave of absence, with Chair Franklin Myers stepping in temporarily. Separately, the Audit Committee is reviewing matters related to disclosure processes, leaving the 2025 financials unaudited for now.

•Reported EBITDA of $1.8 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 billion
•Returned $724 million to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases
•The audit of the Company’s financial statements for 2025 is not yet complete, as the Company’s Audit Committee is engaged (as discussed below) in assessing certain matters relating to the Company’s disclosure processes. Accordingly, all results discussed in this release are unaudited. The Audit Committee has determined that these matters under review do not affect the results for the fourth quarter of 2025 or for full-year 2025 announced in this release.
Dallas, Texas, February 18, 2026 ‑ HF Sinclair Corporation (NYSE and NYSE Texas, Inc.: DINO) (“HF Sinclair” or the “Company”) today reported fourth quarter Net loss attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders of $28 million, or $(0.16) per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, compared to Net loss attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders of $214 million, or $(1.14) per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. Excluding the adjustments shown in the accompanying earnings release table, adjusted net income attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $221 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders of $191 million, or $(1.02) per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024.
As separately announced this morning, HF Sinclair’s Chief Executive Officer and President, Tim Go, is taking a voluntary leave of absence from his duties, and the Board of Directors (the “Board”) has appointed Mr. Franklin Myers as Chief Executive Officer and President on a temporary basis. Mr. Myers also continues to serve as Chairperson of the Board.
The Company’s fourth quarter results reflect seasonal weakness in refining cracks, along with the Puget Sound Refinery turnaround and the unplanned Artesia refinery event. For full-year 2025, the Company achieved record earnings in both its Midstream and Marketing businesses and achieved the Company’s lowest annual refining operating expense per barrel. During the year, the Company also returned over $724 million in cash to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends, and today, the Company announced a $0.50 regular quarterly dividend. Looking forward, the Company remains focused on safe and reliable operations, continued growth in its Midstream, Lubricants and Marketing segments and returning excess cash to the Company’s shareholders.

Refining segment loss before interest and income taxes was $49 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a loss of $332 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. Excluding the Lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustment charge of $313 million and certain items, the segment reported Adjusted EBITDA of $403 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $(169) million for the fourth quarter of 2024. This increase was principally driven by higher adjusted refinery gross margins in both the West and Mid-Continent regions, partially offset by the Puget Sound refinery planned turnaround and the unplanned Artesia refinery event. Small refinery RINs waivers granted by the EPA increased adjusted refinery gross margins by $313 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, which includes $43 million of benefits related to the small refinery RINs waivers received in the third quarter but recognized in the fourth quarter of 2025. Adjusted refinery gross margin was $16.28 per produced barrel sold, a 144% increase compared to $6.68 for the fourth quarter of 2024. Crude oil charge averaged 556,460 barrels per day (“BPD”) for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 562,020 BPD for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Renewables segment loss before interest and income taxes was $35 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a loss of $13 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. Excluding the Lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustment charge of $7 million, the segment reported Adjusted EBITDA of $(6) million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $(9) million in the fourth quarter of 2024. In the fourth quarter of 2025 we recognized incrementally more in value from the Producer’s Tax Credit. Total sales volumes were 57 million gallons for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 62 million gallons for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Marketing segment income before interest and income taxes was $14 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $13 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The segment reported EBITDA of $22 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $21 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily driven by higher margins and high-grading our mix of stores throughout 2025. Total branded fuel sales volumes were 337 million gallons for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 333 million gallons for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Lubricants & Specialties segment income before interest and income taxes was $19 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $46 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The segment reported EBITDA of $43 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $70 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower finished and specialty product sales volumes, lower base oil margins and higher operating expenses.
Midstream segment income before interest and income taxes was $96 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $97 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The segment reported EBITDA of $114 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, consistent with the fourth quarter of 2024.
For the fourth quarter of 2025, net cash provided by operations totaled $8 million. At December 31, 2025, the Company’s Cash and cash equivalents totaled $978 million, a $178 million increase compared to Cash and cash equivalents of $800 million at December 31, 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company announced and paid a regular dividend of $0.50 per share to stockholders totaling $92 million and spent $138 million on share repurchases. Additionally, at December 31, 2025, the Company’s consolidated debt was $2,769 million.
HF Sinclair also announced today that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.50 per share. The dividend is payable on March 12, 2026 to holders of record of common stock on March 2, 2026.
The Company has scheduled a webcast conference call for today, February 18, 2026, at 8:30 AM Eastern Time to discuss fourth quarter financial results. This webcast may be accessed at: https://events.q4inc.com/attendee/560135108. An audio archive of this webcast will be available using the above noted link through March 4, 2026.
The Company will not be filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”) today, given that the Audit Committee of the Board is in the process of assessing certain matters relating to the Company’s disclosure processes. The Audit Committee has determined that these matters do not affect the results for the fourth quarter of 2025 or for full-year 2025 announced in this release. The Audit Committee and all other parties are working diligently to complete this review as soon as possible. The Company will file its Form 10-K following completion of the audit process.

Segment Information
Our operations are organized into five reportable segments: Refining, Renewables, Marketing, Lubricants & Specialties and Midstream. Our operations that are not included in one of these five reportable segments are included in Corporate and Other. Intersegment transactions are eliminated in our consolidated financial statements and are included in Eliminations. Corporate and Other and Eliminations are aggregated and presented under the Corporate, Other and Eliminations column.
The Refining segment represents the operations of our El Dorado, Tulsa, Navajo, Woods Cross, Puget Sound, Parco and Casper refineries and HF Sinclair Asphalt Company LLC (“Asphalt”). Refining activities involve the purchase and refining of crude oil and wholesale marketing of refined products, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel. These petroleum products are primarily marketed in the Mid-Continent, Southwest and Rocky Mountains extending into the Pacific Northwest geographic regions of the United States. Asphalt operates various asphalt terminals in Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma.
The Renewables segment represents the operations of our Cheyenne renewable diesel unit (“RDU”), Artesia RDU, Sinclair RDU and the pre-treatment unit at our Artesia, New Mexico facility.
The Marketing segment represents branded fuel sales to Sinclair branded sites in the United States and licensing fees for the use of the Sinclair brand at additional locations throughout the country. The Marketing segment also includes branded fuel sales to non-Sinclair branded sites and revenues from other marketing activities. Our branded sites are located in several states across the United States with the highest concentration of the sites located in our West and Mid-Continent regions.
The Lubricants & Specialties segment includes Petro-Canada Lubricants’ production operations, located in Mississauga, Ontario, which produces lubricant products such as base oils, white oils, specialty products and finished lubricants, and the operations of our Petro-Canada Lubricants business that includes the marketing of products to both retail and wholesale outlets through a global sales network with locations in Canada, the United States and Europe. Additionally, the Lubricants & Specialties segment includes specialty lubricant products produced at our Tulsa refineries that are marketed throughout North America and are distributed in Central and South America, and the operations of Red Giant Oil, one of the leading suppliers of locomotive engine oil in North America. Also, the Lubricants & Specialties segment includes Sonneborn, a producer of specialty hydrocarbon chemicals such as white oils, petrolatums and waxes with manufacturing facilities in the United States and Europe.
The Midstream segment includes all of the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary Holly Energy Partners, L.P., which owns and operates logistics and refinery assets consisting of petroleum product and crude oil pipelines, terminals, tankage and loading rack facilities in the Mid-Continent, Southwest and Rocky Mountains geographic regions of the United States. The Midstream segment also includes 50% ownership interests in each of Osage Pipeline Company, LLC, the owner of a pipeline running from Cushing, Oklahoma to El Dorado, Kansas, and Cushing Connect Pipeline & Terminal LLC, the owner of a pipeline running from Cushing, Oklahoma to Tulsa, Oklahoma, a 26.08% ownership interest in Saddle Butte Pipeline III, LLC, the owner of a pipeline running from the Powder River Basin to Casper, Wyoming, and a 49.995% ownership interest in Pioneer Investments Corp., the owner of a pipeline running from Sinclair, Wyoming to the North Salt Lake City, Utah terminal.

Refining Segment Operating Data
The following tables set forth information, including non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) performance measures, about our consolidated refinery operations. Adjusted refinery gross margin per produced barrel sold is total Refining segment gross margin plus Lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, Depreciation and amortization and Operating expenses, divided by sales volumes of produced refined products. This margin measure does not include the non-cash effects of Lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, which relate to inventory held at the end of the period. Reconciliations to amounts reported under GAAP are provided under “Reconciliations to Amounts Reported Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” below.
The disaggregation of our refining geographic operating data is presented in two regions, Mid-Continent and West, to best reflect the economic drivers of our refining operations. The Mid-Continent region is comprised of the El Dorado and Tulsa refineries. The West region is comprised of the Puget Sound, Navajo, Woods Cross, Parco and Casper refineries.

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 the financial statements.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, referred to as EBITDA, is calculated as Net income (loss) attributable to HF Sinclair stockholders plus (i) Interest expense, net of Interest income, (ii) Income tax expense (benefit) and (iii) Depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA plus or minus (i) Lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, (ii) loss on sale of equity method investment, (iii) loss on early extinguishment of debt, (iv) decommissioning and closure costs, (v) asset impairments, (vi) regulatory charges and (vii) acquisition integration 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 (loss) or Income (loss) from operations 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 financial indicators widely used by investors and analysts to measure our operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by our management for internal analysis and as a basis for financial covenants.
The Company cannot reliably predict or estimate certain items or expenses, or their impact on financial statements in future periods. Accordingly, the Company believes that a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the equivalent GAAP financial measures for projected results is not meaningful or available without unreasonable effort.
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 the financial statements.
Adjusted refinery gross margin is a non-GAAP performance measure that is used by our management and others to compare our refining performance to that of other companies in our industry. We believe this margin measure is helpful to investors in evaluating our refining performance on a relative and absolute basis, including against publicly available crack spread data. Adjusted refinery gross margin per produced barrel sold is total Refining segment gross margin plus Lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, Operating expenses and Depreciation and amortization, divided by sales volumes of produced refined products. This margin measure excludes the non-cash effects of Lower of cost or market inventory valuation adjustments, which relate to inventory held at the end of the period. Adjusted refinery gross margin is a non-GAAP performance measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Refining segment gross margin. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted refinery gross margin is Refining segment gross margin. Other companies in our industry may not calculate these performance measures in the same manner. Due to rounding of reported numbers, some amounts may not calculate exactly.

Reconciliation of Net income (loss) 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, loss on sale of equity method investment, loss on early extinguishment of debt, decommissioning and closure costs, asset impairments, regulatory charges and acquisition integration 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.
