Alon USA Reports Third Quarter Results

Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend
Company schedules conference call for November 7, 2012 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern
DALLAS, TEXAS, November 5, 2012 - Alon USA Energy, Inc. (NYSE: ALJ) (“Alon”) today announced results for the third quarter of 2012. Net income for the third quarter of 2012 was $43.2 million, or $0.76 per share, compared to net income of $28.6 million, or $0.51 per share, for the same period last year. Excluding special items, Alon recorded net income of $47.6 million, or $0.84 per share, for the third quarter of 2012, compared to net income of $39.0 million, or $0.70 per share, for the same period last year.
Net income for the first nine months of 2012 was $56.9 million, or $1.01 per share, compared to net income of $55.4 million, or $1.00 per share, for the same period last year. Excluding special items, Alon recorded net income of $91.3 million, or $1.62 per share, for the first nine months of 2012, compared to net income of $74.5 million, or $1.35 per share, for the same period last year.
Paul Eisman, CEO and President, commented, “We are pleased with our third quarter results, and the positive impact these results are having on our balance sheet. The Company continues to benefit from good operations in a positive margin environment. During the third quarter, we increased throughput at each of our refineries versus the second quarter, and also realized increased sales in both Asphalt Marketing and Alon Brands. We generated very favorable operating margins of $28.19 per barrel at our Big Spring Refinery and $11.28 per barrel at our Krotz Springs Refinery. In Krotz Springs we processed on average a record of over 23,000 barrels per day of WTI.
“During the third quarter, we generated over $100 million of cash flow from operating activities, which was used to reduce total debt by $75 million. We were able to achieve this even though our reported results for the quarter were negatively impacted by $39 million of losses on commodity swap hedge positions comprised of $34 million of realized losses and $5 million of unrealized losses.
“We filed an amendment to the Form S-1 of Alon USA Partners, LP. We intend to use the net proceeds of the offering to reduce our outstanding indebtedness.
“California remains challenging from an asphalt refining perspective, as low demand and value for produced asphalt in a high cost West Coast crude environment led to disappointing financial results. We are currently evaluating alternatives to improve the short and long term profitability of our California refining operations. With the end of the asphalt season, we are suspending refining operations in California. As mentioned last quarter, we have submitted permit applications to ship via rail lighter mid-continent crudes to replace the heavier West Coast crudes currently used in the California system. We expect to receive these permits, as well as to complete required infrastructure build out and to enter into the required supply arrangements, by the fourth quarter of 2013.
“For the fourth quarter of 2012, we expect the average throughput at the Big Spring refinery to be approximately 71,000 barrels per day and 74,000 barrels per day at the Krotz Springs refinery. At Krotz Springs, we expect to process 25,000 barrels per day of WTI increasing to 30,000 barrels per day of WTI by year end.”
