Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of the Business

We are a leading, integrated, downstream energy company headquartered in Findlay, Ohio. We operate the nation's largest refining system. We sell refined products to wholesale marketing customers domestically and internationally, to buyers on the spot market and to independent entrepreneurs who operate branded outlets. We also sell transportation fuel to consumers through direct dealer locations under long-term supply contracts. MPC’s midstream operations are primarily conducted through MPLX LP (“MPLX”), which owns and operates crude oil and light product transportation and logistics infrastructure as well as gathering, processing and fractionation assets. We own the general partner and a majority limited partner interest in MPLX. See Note 4.

Basis of Presentation

These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of our management, these statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. These interim consolidated financial statements, including the notes, have been prepared in accordance with the rules of the SEC applicable to interim period financial statements and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain information and disclosures derived from our audited annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements.

These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our majority-owned, controlled subsidiaries, including MPLX. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Due to our ownership of the general partner interest of MPLX, we have determined that we control MPLX and therefore we consolidate MPLX and record a noncontrolling interest for the interest owned by the public. Changes in ownership interest in consolidated subsidiaries that do not result in a change in control are recorded as equity transactions. Investments in entities over which we have significant influence, but not control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. This includes entities in which we hold majority ownership but the minority shareholders have substantive participating rights.

Certain prior period financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

2. Accounting Standards and Disclosure Rules

Recently Adopted

During the first quarter of 2024, we adopted ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements or disclosures.

Not Yet Adopted

SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors

In March 2024, the SEC adopted rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, which requires registrants to provide certain climate-related information in their annual reports. As part of the disclosures, material impacts from severe weather events and other natural conditions will be required in the audited financial statements. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed the rules pending judicial review. Pending the results of the judicial review, the disclosure requirements are effective for the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. We are evaluating the impact these rules will have on our disclosures and monitoring the status of the judicial review.

ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, the FASB issued an ASU to update income tax disclosure requirements to provide consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and to disaggregate income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures.

Table of Contents

ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, the FASB issued an ASU to update reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily by requiring enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures.

3. Short-Term Investments

Our investment policy includes concentration limits and credit rating requirements which limit our investments to high quality, short term and highly liquid securities.

Realized gains/losses were not material. All of our available-for-sale debt securities held as of March 31, 2024 mature within one year or less or are readily available for use.

4. Master Limited Partnership

We own the general partner and a majority limited partner interest in MPLX, which owns and operates crude oil and light product transportation and logistics infrastructure as well as gathering, processing and fractionation assets. We control MPLX through our ownership of the general partner interest and, as of March 31, 2024, we owned approximately 64 percent of the outstanding MPLX common units compared to 65 percent as of December 31, 2023. Our ownership was impacted by changes in the redeemable non-controlling interest.

Unit Repurchase Program

On August 2, 2022, MPLX announced its board of directors approved a $1.0 billion unit repurchase authorization. This unit repurchase authorization has no expiration date. MPLX may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market repurchases, negotiated block transactions, accelerated unit repurchases, tender offers or open market solicitations for units, some of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and amount of future repurchases, if

Table of Contents

any, will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and such repurchases may be suspended, discontinued or restarted at any time.

Total unit repurchases were as follows for the respective periods:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions, except per unit data)	2024		2023
Number of common units repurchased	2		—
Cash paid for common units repurchased	$	75	$	—
Average cost per unit	$	40.04	$	—

As of March 31, 2024, MPLX had approximately $771 million remaining under its unit repurchase authorization.

Redemption of the Series B Preferred Units

On February 15, 2023, MPLX exercised its right to redeem all of its 600,000 outstanding preferred units (the “Series B preferred units”). MPLX paid unitholders the Series B preferred unit redemption price of $1,000 per unit. The final semi-annual distribution on the Series B preferred units was paid on February 15, 2023 in the usual manner.

The excess of the total redemption price of $600 million paid to Series B preferred unitholders over the carrying value of the Series B preferred units on the redemption date resulted in a $2 million net reduction to retained earnings.

Agreements

We have various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with MPLX. Under these agreements, MPLX provides transportation, storage, distribution and marketing services to us. With certain exceptions, these agreements generally contain minimum volume commitments. These transactions are eliminated in consolidation but are reflected as intersegment transactions between our Refining & Marketing and Midstream segments. We also have agreements with MPLX that establish fees for operational and management services provided between us and MPLX and for executive management services and certain general and administrative services provided by us to MPLX. These transactions are eliminated in consolidation but are reflected as intersegment transactions between corporate and our Midstream segment.

Noncontrolling Interest

As a result of equity transactions of MPLX, we are required to adjust non-controlling interest and additional paid-in capital. Changes in MPC’s additional paid-in capital resulting from changes in its ownership interests in MPLX were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Millions of dollars)	2024		2023
Increase due to change in ownership	$	108	$	1
Tax impact	(36)		2
Increase in MPC's additional paid-in capital, net of tax	$	72	$	3

5. Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIE

We control MPLX through our ownership of its general partner. MPLX is a VIE because the limited partners do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights over the general partner. We are the primary beneficiary of MPLX because in addition to our significant economic interest, we also have the ability, through our ownership of the general partner, to control the decisions that most significantly impact MPLX. We therefore consolidate MPLX and record a noncontrolling interest for the interest owned by the public. We also record a redeemable noncontrolling interest related to MPLX’s Series A preferred units.

The creditors of MPLX do not have recourse to MPC’s general credit through guarantees or other financial arrangements, except as noted. MPC has effectively guaranteed certain indebtedness of LOOP LLC (“LOOP”) and LOCAP LLC (“LOCAP”), in which MPLX holds an interest. See Note 23 for more information. The assets of MPLX can only be used to settle its own obligations and its creditors have no recourse to our assets, except as noted earlier.

7. Earnings Per Share

We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income attributable to MPC less income allocated to participating securities by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Since MPC grants certain incentive compensation awards to employees and non-employee directors that are considered to be participating securities, we have calculated our earnings per share using the two-class method. Diluted income per share assumes exercise of certain share-based compensation awards, provided the effect is not anti-dilutive.

8. Equity

On October 25, 2023, MPC announced that our board of directors approved a $5.0 billion share repurchase authorization in addition to the $5.0 billion share repurchase authorizations announced on January 31, 2023 and May 2, 2023. As of March 31, 2024, $4.63 billion remained available for repurchase under these share repurchase authorizations. These share repurchase authorizations have no expiration date.

We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market repurchases, negotiated block transactions, accelerated share repurchases, tender offers or open market solicitations for shares, some of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and amount of future repurchases, if any, will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and such repurchases may be suspended, discontinued or restarted at any time.

Table of Contents

Total share repurchases were as follows for the respective periods:

(a) The average cost per share includes excise tax on share repurchases resulting from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, but does not reduce the share repurchase authorization.

9. Segment Information

We have two reportable segments: Refining & Marketing and Midstream. Each of these segments is organized and managed based upon the nature of the products and services it offers.

•Refining & Marketing – refines crude oil and other feedstocks, including renewable feedstocks, at our refineries in the Gulf Coast, Mid-Continent and West Coast regions of the United States, purchases refined products and ethanol for resale and distributes refined products, including renewable diesel, through transportation, storage, distribution and marketing services provided largely by our Midstream segment. We sell refined products to wholesale marketing customers domestically and internationally, to buyers on the spot market, to independent entrepreneurs who operate primarily Marathon® branded outlets and through long-term fuel supply contracts with direct dealers who operate locations mainly under the ARCO® brand.

•Midstream – gathers, transports, stores and distributes crude oil, refined products, including renewable diesel, and other hydrocarbon-based products principally for the Refining & Marketing segment via refining logistics assets, pipelines, terminals, towboats and barges; gathers, processes and transports natural gas; and transports, fractionates, stores and markets NGLs. The Midstream segment primarily reflects the results of MPLX.

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) evaluates the performance of our segments using segment adjusted EBITDA. Our CODM is the chief executive officer. Amounts included in income before income taxes and excluded from segment adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) turnaround expenses and (iv) other adjustments as deemed necessary. These items are either: (i) believed to be non-recurring in nature; (ii) not believed to be allocable or controlled by the segment; or (iii) not tied to the operational performance of the segment. Assets by segment are not a measure used to assess the performance of the company by the CODM and thus are not reported in our disclosures.

11. Income Taxes

We recorded a combined federal, state and foreign income tax provision of $823 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, which was higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state taxes offset by permanent tax benefits related to net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.

13. Equity Method Investments

Midstream Acquisition

On March 22, 2024, MPLX used $625 million of cash on hand to purchase additional ownership interest in existing joint ventures and gathering assets which will enhance our position in the Utica basin. Prior to the acquisition, MPLX owned an indirect interest in Ohio Gathering Company, L.L.C. (“OGC”) and a direct interest in Ohio Condensate Company, L.L.C. (“OCC”) and now owns a combined 73 percent interest in OGC and a 100 percent interest in OCC, and a dry gas gathering system in the Utica basin. OGC continues to be accounted for as an equity method investment as MPLX did not obtain control of OGC as a result of the transaction. OGC is considered a VIE as MPLX is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary due to voting rights on significant matters. The acquisition date fair value of our investment in OGC exceeded our portion of the underlying net assets of the joint venture by approximately $86 million. OCC was previously accounted for as an equity method investment, and it is now consolidated and included in our consolidated financial results.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination requiring all the acquired assets and liabilities to be remeasured to fair value resulting in a consolidated fair value of net assets and liabilities of $625 million. The preliminary determination of the fair value includes $518 million related to acquired interests in the joint ventures and the remaining balance related to other acquired assets and liabilities. The revaluation of MPLX’s existing 62 percent equity method investment in OCC resulted in a

Table of Contents

$20 million gain, which is included in the net gain on disposal of assets line of the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The fair value of equity method investments was based on a discounted cash flow model.

LF Bioenergy Acquisition

On March 8, 2023, MPC announced the acquisition of a 49.9 percent interest in LF Bioenergy, an emerging producer of renewable natural gas (“RNG”) in the U.S., for approximately $56 million, which included funding for on-going operations and project development. LF Bioenergy has been focused on developing and growing a portfolio of dairy farm-based, low carbon intensity RNG projects.

LF Bioenergy is a VIE since it is unable to fund its operations without financial support from its equity owners. We are not the primary beneficiary of this VIE because we do not have the ability to control the activities that significantly influence the economic outcomes of the entity and, therefore, do not consolidate the entity. MPC accounts for our ownership interest in LF Bioenergy as an equity method investment.

15. Fair Value Measurements

Fair Values—Recurring

The following tables present assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 by fair value hierarchy level. We have elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty, including any related cash collateral as shown below; however, fair value amounts by hierarchy level are presented on a gross basis in the following tables.

As of March 31, 2024, cash collateral of $34 million was netted with mark-to-market derivative liabilities. As of December 31, 2023, cash collateral of $29 million was netted with mark-to-market derivative liabilities.

(b)We have no derivative contracts which are subject to master netting arrangements reflected gross on the balance sheet.

Table of Contents

Level 3 instruments relate to an embedded derivative liability for a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep‑whole processing agreement. The fair value calculation for these Level 3 instruments at March 31, 2024 used significant unobservable inputs including: (1) NGL prices interpolated and extrapolated due to inactive markets ranging from $0.66 to $1.61 per gallon with a weighted average of $0.83 per gallon and (2) the probability of renewal of 100 percent for the five-year term of the natural gas purchase commitment and related keep-whole processing agreement. Increases or decreases in the fractionation spread result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the embedded derivative liability.

The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances recorded for net liabilities classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Values – Non-recurring

Non-recurring fair value measurements and disclosures in 2024 relate to the purchase of additional ownership interest in existing joint ventures and gathering assets as discussed in Note 13.

Fair Values – Reported

We believe the carrying value of our other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and certain accrued liabilities, approximate fair value. Our fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including the short-term duration of the instruments and the expected insignificance of bad debt expense, which includes an evaluation of counterparty credit risk. The borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, which include variable interest rates, approximate fair value. The fair value of our long-term debt is based on prices from recent trade activity and is categorized in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying and fair values of our debt were approximately $27.0 billion and $25.3 billion at March 31, 2024, respectively, and approximately $27.0 billion and $25.5 billion at December 31, 2023, respectively. These carrying and fair values of our debt exclude the unamortized issuance costs which are netted against our total debt.

16. Derivatives

For further information regarding the fair value measurement of derivative instruments, including any effect of master netting agreements or collateral, see Note 15. We do not designate any of our commodity derivative instruments as hedges for accounting purposes.

Derivatives that are not designated as accounting hedges may include commodity derivatives used to hedge price risk on (1) inventories, (2) fixed price sales of refined products, (3) the acquisition of foreign-sourced crude oil, (4) the acquisition of ethanol for blending with refined products, (5) the sale of NGLs, (6) the purchase of natural gas and (7) the purchase of soybean oil.

Table of Contents

The following table presents the fair value of derivative instruments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the line items in the consolidated balance sheets in which the fair values are reflected. The fair value amounts below are presented on a gross basis and do not reflect the netting of asset and liability positions permitted under the terms of our master netting arrangements including cash collateral on deposit with, or received from, brokers. We offset the recognized fair value amounts for multiple derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty in our financial statements when a legal right of offset exists. As a result, the asset and liability amounts below will not agree with the amounts presented in our consolidated balance sheets.

23. Commitments and Contingencies

We are the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Some of these matters are discussed below. For matters for which we have not recorded a liability, we are unable to estimate a range of possible loss because the issues involved have not been fully developed through pleadings, discovery or court proceedings. However, the ultimate resolution of some of these contingencies could, individually or in the aggregate, be material.

Environmental Matters

We are subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the environment. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites and certain other locations including presently or formerly owned or operated retail marketing sites. Penalties may be imposed for noncompliance.

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, accrued liabilities for remediation totaled $375 million and $387 million, respectively. It is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation costs that might be incurred or the penalties, if any, that may be imposed. Receivables for recoverable costs from certain states, under programs to assist companies in clean-up efforts related to underground storage tanks at presently or formerly owned or operated retail marketing sites, were $5 million at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Governmental and other entities in various states have filed climate-related lawsuits against a number of energy companies, including MPC. Although each suit is separate and unique, the lawsuits generally allege defendants made knowing misrepresentations about knowingly concealing, or failing to warn of the impacts of their petroleum products which led to increased demand and worsened climate change. Plaintiffs are seeking unspecified damages and abatement under various tort theories, as well as breaches of consumer protection and unfair trade statutes. We are currently subject to such proceedings in federal or state courts in California, Delaware, Maryland, Hawaii, Rhode Island, South Carolina and Oregon. Similar lawsuits may be filed in other jurisdictions. At this early stage, the ultimate outcome of these matters remains uncertain, and neither the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome nor the ultimate liability, if any, can be determined.

We are involved in a number of environmental enforcement matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome and impact on us cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these environmental matters will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Other Legal Proceedings

In July 2020, Tesoro High Plains Pipeline Company, LLC (“THPP”), a subsidiary of MPLX, received a Notification of Trespass Determination from the Bureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”) relating to a portion of the Tesoro High Plains Pipeline that crosses the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota. The notification demanded the immediate cessation of pipeline operations and assessed trespass damages of approximately $187 million. After subsequent appeal proceedings and in compliance with a new order issued by the BIA, in December 2020, THPP paid approximately $4 million in assessed trespass damages and ceased use of the portion of the pipeline that crosses the property at issue. In March 2021, the BIA issued an order purporting to vacate the BIA’s prior orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass and direct the Regional Director of the BIA to reconsider the issue of THPP’s alleged trespass and issue a new order. In April 2021, THPP filed a lawsuit in the District of North Dakota against the United States of America, the U.S. Department of the Interior and the BIA (collectively, the “U.S. Government Parties”) challenging the March 2021 order purporting to vacate all previous orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass. On February 8, 2022, the U.S. Government Parties filed their answer and counterclaims to THPP’s suit claiming THPP is in continued trespass with respect to the pipeline and seek disgorgement of pipeline profits from June 1, 2013 to present, removal of the pipeline and remediation. On November 8, 2023, the District Court of North Dakota granted THPP’s motion to sever and stay the U.S. Government Parties’ counterclaims. The case will proceed on the merits of THPP’s challenge to the March 2021 order purporting to vacate all previous orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass. THPP continues not to operate that portion of the pipeline that crosses the property at issue.

We are also a party to a number of other lawsuits and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome and impact to us cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the resolution of these other lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Guarantees

We have provided certain guarantees, direct and indirect, of the indebtedness of other companies. Under the terms of most of these guarantee arrangements, we would be required to perform should the guaranteed party fail to fulfill its obligations under the specified arrangements. In addition to these financial guarantees, we also have various performance guarantees related to specific agreements.

Guarantees related to indebtedness of equity method investees

LOOP and LOCAP

MPC and MPLX hold interests in an offshore oil port, LOOP, and MPLX holds an interest in a crude oil pipeline system, LOCAP. Both LOOP and LOCAP have secured various project financings with throughput and deficiency agreements. Under the agreements, MPC, as a shipper, is required to advance funds if the investees are unable to service their debt. Any such advances are considered prepayments of future transportation charges. The duration of the agreements varies but tend to follow the terms of the underlying debt, which extend through 2040. Our maximum potential undiscounted payments under these agreements for the debt principal totaled $222 million as of March 31, 2024.

Dakota Access Pipeline

MPLX holds a 9.19 percent indirect interest in Dakota Access, which owns and operates the Bakken Pipeline system. In 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (the “D.D.C.”) ordered the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (“Army Corps”), which granted permits and an easement for the Bakken Pipeline system, to prepare an environmental impact statement (“EIS”) relating to an easement under Lake Oahe in North Dakota. The D.D.C. later vacated the easement. The Army Corps issued a draft EIS in September 2023 detailing various options for the easement going forward, including denying the easement, approving the easement with additional measures, rerouting the easement, or approving the easement with no changes. The Army Corps has not selected a preferred alternative, but will make a decision in its final review, after considering input from the public and other agencies. The pipeline remains operational while the Army Corps finalizes its decision which is expected to be issued by the end of 2024.

MPLX has entered into a Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement whereby it, along with the other joint venture owners in the Bakken Pipeline system, has agreed to make equity contributions to the joint venture upon certain events occurring to allow the entities that own and operate the Bakken Pipeline system to satisfy their senior note payment obligations. The senior notes were issued to repay amounts owed by the pipeline companies to fund the cost of construction of the Bakken Pipeline system. If the vacatur of the easement results in a temporary shutdown of the pipeline, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of funds required to pay interest accruing on the notes and any portion of the principal that matures while the pipeline is shutdown. MPLX also expects to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of any costs to remediate any deficiencies to reinstate the easement and/or return the pipeline into operation. If the vacatur of the easement results in a permanent shutdown of the pipeline, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of the cost to redeem the bonds (including the 1 percent redemption premium required pursuant to the indenture governing the notes) and any accrued and unpaid interest. As of March 31, 2024, our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement were approximately $170 million.

Crowley Blue Water Partners LLC

In connection with our 50 percent indirect interest in Crowley Blue Water Partners LLC, we have agreed to provide a conditional guarantee of up to 50 percent of its outstanding debt balance in the event there is no charter agreement in place with an investment grade customer for the entity’s three vessels as well as other financial support in certain circumstances. The terms of the underlying debt extend through 2038. As of March 31, 2024, our maximum potential undiscounted payments under this arrangement were $91 million.

Other guarantees

We have entered into other guarantees with maximum potential undiscounted payments totaling $114 million as of March 31, 2024, which primarily consist of a commitment to contribute cash to an equity method investee for certain catastrophic events in lieu of procuring insurance coverage, a commitment to fund a share of the bonds issued by a government entity for construction of public utilities in the event that other industrial users of the facility default on their utility payments, a commitment to pay a termination fee on a supply agreement if terminated during the initial term, and leases of assets containing general lease indemnities and guaranteed residual values.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies

Certain natural gas processing and gathering arrangements require us to construct natural gas processing plants, natural gas gathering pipelines and NGL pipelines and contain certain fees and charges if specified construction milestones are not achieved for reasons other than force majeure. In certain cases, certain producer customers may have the right to cancel the processing arrangements with us if there are significant delays that are not due to force majeure.

24. Subsequent Events

Additional $5 Billion Share Repurchase Authorization

On April 30, 2024, we announced that our board of directors approved an additional $5.0 billion share repurchase authorization. The authorization has no expiration date. We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market repurchases, negotiated block transactions, accelerated share repurchases, tender offers or open market solicitations for shares, some of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing of repurchases will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and repurchases may be suspended, discontinued or restarted at any time.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Business Update

Globally, oil demand is at a record high, as the need for affordable and reliable energy increases throughout the world. In the first quarter, global refined product inventories supported a constructive refining environment. In addition, global energy markets continue to experience disruptions resulting from regional conflicts, such as in the Middle East, Russia and Ukraine. We are unable to predict the potential effects that the continuance or escalation of the military conflicts, and related sanctions or market disruptions on shipping and energy costs, may have on our financial position and results.

In June 2023, the California legislature adopted and implemented certain provisions of Senate Bill No.2 (such statute, together with any regulations contemplated or issued thereunder, “SB X1-2”), which authorizes the CEC to establish a “maximum gross gasoline refining margin” with respect to refining activities in California, as well as establish penalties for refiners for exceeding the yet to be issued margin cap. The law further expands on existing reporting requirements for refiners to the CEC. As of the first quarter of 2024, the CEC is proceeding with rulemaking activity (i) on a maximum gross gasoline refining margin and penalty structure, and (ii) that is focused on refinery maintenance and turnarounds. We will evaluate the impact that SB X1-2 and any associated forthcoming CEC regulations may have on our current or anticipated future operations in California and results of operations when SB X1-2 is fully implemented.

See Note 13 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information on this acquisition.

Additionally, on March 26 2024, MPLX entered into a definitive agreement to strategically combine the Whistler Pipeline and Rio Bravo Pipeline project in a newly formed joint venture. This will expand MPLX’s Permian natural gas value chain, increasing its footprint in the region for future growth. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2024, subject to receipt of required regulatory approvals and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

Share Repurchase Authorization

On April 30, 2024, we announced that our board of directors approved an additional $5.0 billion share repurchase authorization. The share repurchase authorization has no expiration date. Future repurchases under the authorization will depend on the macro environment, cash available after opportunities for capital investment and growth of the business and market conditions. As of March 31, 2024, MPC had $4.63 billion remaining under its share repurchase authorizations.

See Note 8 and Note 24 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our share repurchase authorizations.

Other

Succession Planning

As previously disclosed, MPC maintains a mandatory retirement policy that, absent a waiver or extension, requires an executive officer to retire from service to the company coincident with, or immediately following, the first of the month after such executive officer reaches age 65 (the "Policy"). Michael J. Hennigan, our Chief Executive Officer, will reach mandatory retirement on August 1, 2024. Accordingly, the MPC Board of Directors, with a focus on the long-term strategic direction of the company, is engaged in appropriate succession planning activities, including, among other customary steps, the review of succession candidates, as well as consideration of any waiver or extension of the Policy respecting Mr. Hennigan.

Results

Our CODM evaluates the performance of our segments using segment adjusted EBITDA. Amounts included in income before income taxes and excluded from segment adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) turnaround expenses and (iv) other adjustments as deemed necessary. These items are either: (i) believed to be non-recurring in nature; (ii) not believed to be allocable or controlled by the segment; or (iii) are not tied to the operational performance of the segment.

Select results are reflected in the following table.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Millions of dollars)	2024		2023
Segment adjusted EBITDA for reportable segments
Refining & Marketing	$	1,874	$	3,853
Midstream	1,589		1,530

Income before income taxes	$	1,605	$	3,907

Net income attributable to MPC per diluted share	$	2.58	$	6.09

Net income attributable to MPC was $937 million, or $2.58 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $2.72 billion, or $6.09 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in net income attributable to MPC was largely due to lower Refining & Marketing margins and higher turnaround costs, partially offset by a decreased provision for income taxes.

MPLX

We owned approximately 647 million MPLX common units as of March 31, 2024, with a market value of $26.91 billion based on the March 28, 2024 closing price of $41.56 per common unit. On April 23, 2024, MPLX declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.8500 per common unit payable on May 13, 2024, to unitholders of record on May 3, 2024. As a result, MPC’s portion of this distribution is approximately $550 million.

We received limited partner distributions of $550 million from MPLX in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $502 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, MPLX repurchased approximately 2 million MPLX common units at an average cost per unit of $40.04 and paid $75 million of cash. As of March 31, 2024, approximately $771 million remained available under the authorization for future unit repurchases.

See Note 4 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information on MPLX.

OVERVIEW OF SEGMENTS

Refining & Marketing

Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA depends largely on our refinery throughput, Refining & Marketing margin, refining operating costs and distribution costs.

Refining & Marketing margin is the difference between the prices of refined products sold and the costs of crude oil and other charge and blendstocks refined, including the costs to transport these inputs to our refineries and the costs of products purchased for resale. The crack spread is a measure of the difference between market prices for refined products and crude oil, commonly used by the industry as a proxy for the refining margin. Crack spreads can fluctuate significantly, particularly when prices of refined products do not move in the same relationship as the cost of crude oil. As a performance benchmark and a comparison with other industry participants, we calculate Gulf Coast, Mid-Continent and West Coast crack spreads that we believe most closely track our operations and slate of products. The following are used for these crack spread calculations:

•The Gulf Coast crack spread uses three barrels of MEH crude producing two barrels of USGC CBOB gasoline and one barrel of USGC ULSD;

•The Mid-Continent crack spread uses three barrels of WTI crude producing two barrels of Chicago CBOB gasoline and one barrel of Chicago ULSD; and

•The West Coast crack spread uses three barrels of ANS crude producing two barrels of LA CARBOB and one barrel of LA CARB Diesel.

Our refineries can process a variety of sweet and sour crude oil, which typically can be purchased at a discount to crude oil referenced in our Gulf Coast, Mid-Continent and West Coast crack spreads. The amount of these discounts, which we refer to as the sweet differential and the sour differential, can vary significantly, causing our Refining & Marketing margin to differ from blended crack spreads. In general, larger sweet and sour differentials will enhance our Refining & Marketing margin.

Future crude oil differentials will be dependent on a variety of market and economic factors, as well as U.S. energy policy.

The following table provides sensitivities showing an estimated change in annual Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA due to potential changes in market conditions.


(Millions of dollars)
Blended crack spread sensitivity(a) (per $1.00/barrel change)	$	1,080
Sour differential sensitivity(b) (per $1.00/barrel change)	500
Sweet differential sensitivity(c) (per $1.00/barrel change)	500
Natural gas price sensitivity(d) (per $1.00/MMBtu)	330

(a)Crack spread based on 40 percent MEH, 40 percent WTI and 20 percent ANS with Gulf Coast, Mid-Continent and West Coast product pricing, respectively, and assumes all other differentials and pricing relationships remain unchanged.

(b)Sour crude oil basket consists of the following crudes: ANS, Argus Sour Crude Index, Maya and Western Canadian Select. We assume approximately 50 percent of the crude processed at our refineries in 2024 will be sour crude.

(c)Sweet crude oil basket consists of the following crudes: Bakken, Brent, MEH, WTI-Cushing and WTI-Midland. We assume approximately 50 percent of the crude processed at our refineries in 2024 will be sweet crude.

(d)This is consumption-based exposure for our Refining & Marketing segment and does not include the sales exposure for our Midstream segment.

Table of Contents

In addition to the market changes indicated by the crack spreads, the sour differential and the sweet differential, our Refining & Marketing margin is impacted by factors such as:

•the selling prices realized for refined products;

•the types of crude oil and other charge and blendstocks processed;

•our refinery yields;

•the cost of products purchased for resale;

•the impact of commodity derivative instruments used to hedge price risk;

•the potential impact of lower of cost or market adjustments to inventories in periods of declining prices;

•the potential impact of LIFO charges due to changes in historic inventory levels; and

•the cost of purchasing RINs in the open market to comply with RFS2 requirements.

Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA is also affected by changes in refining operating costs in addition to committed distribution costs. Changes in operating costs are primarily driven by the cost of energy used by our refineries, including purchased natural gas, and the level of maintenance costs. Distribution costs primarily include long-term agreements with MPLX, which as discussed below include minimum commitments to MPLX, and will negatively impact segment adjusted EBITDA in periods when throughput or sales are lower or refineries are idled.

We have various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with MPLX. Under these agreements, MPLX, which is reported in our Midstream segment, provides transportation, storage, distribution and marketing services to our Refining & Marketing segment. Certain of these agreements include commitments for minimum quarterly throughput and distribution volumes of crude oil and refined products and minimum storage volumes of crude oil, refined products and other products. Certain other agreements include commitments to pay for 100 percent of available capacity for certain marine transportation and refining logistics assets.

Midstream

Our Midstream segment gathers, transports, stores and distributes crude oil, refined products, including renewable diesel, and other hydrocarbon-based products, principally for our Refining & Marketing segment. Additionally, the segment markets refined products. The profitability of our pipeline transportation operations primarily depends on tariff rates and the volumes shipped through the pipelines. The profitability of our marine operations primarily depends on the quantity and availability of our vessels and barges. The profitability of our terminal operations primarily depends on the throughput volumes at our terminals. The profitability of our fuels distribution services primarily depends on the sales volumes of certain refined products. The profitability of our refining logistics operations depends on the quantity and availability of our refining logistics assets. A majority of the crude oil and refined product shipments on our pipelines and marine vessels, the throughput at our terminals and refining logistics assets serve our Refining & Marketing segment and our fuels distribution services are used solely by our Refining & Marketing segment. As discussed above in the Refining & Marketing section, MPLX, which is reported in our Midstream segment, has various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements related to services provided to our Refining & Marketing segment. Under these agreements, MPLX has received various commitments of minimum throughput, storage and distribution volumes as well as commitments to pay for all available capacity of certain assets. The volume of crude oil that we transport is directly affected by the supply of, and refiner demand for, crude oil in the markets served directly by our crude oil pipelines, terminals and marine operations. Key factors in this supply and demand balance are the production levels of crude oil by producers in various regions or fields, the availability and cost of alternative modes of transportation, the volumes of crude oil processed at refineries and refinery and transportation system maintenance levels. The volume of refined products that we transport, store, distribute and market is directly affected by the production levels of, and user demand for, refined products in the markets served by our refined product pipelines and marine operations. In most of our markets, demand for gasoline and distillate peaks during the summer driving season, which extends from May through September of each year, and declines during the fall and winter months. As with crude oil, other transportation alternatives and system maintenance levels influence refined product movements.

Our Midstream segment also gathers, processes and transports natural gas and transports, fractionates, stores and markets NGLs. NGL and natural gas prices are volatile and are impacted by changes in fundamental supply and demand, as well as market uncertainty, availability of NGL transportation and fractionation capacity and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. Our Midstream segment profitability is affected by prevailing commodity prices primarily as a result of processing at our own or third‑party processing plants, purchasing and selling or gathering and transporting volumes of natural gas at index‑related prices and the cost of third‑party transportation and fractionation services. To the extent that commodity prices influence the level of natural gas drilling by our producer customers, such prices also affect profitability.

First Quarter 2024 Compared to First Quarter 2023

Net income attributable to MPC decreased $1.79 billion in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023 primarily due to lower Refining & Marketing margins and higher turnaround costs, partially offset by a decreased provision for income taxes.

Revenues and other income decreased $1.87 billion primarily due to:

•decreased sales and other operating revenues of $2.16 billion primarily due to decreased Refining & Marketing segment average refined product sales prices of $0.18 per gallon and decreased refined product sales volumes of 75 mbpd, largely due to lower throughputs as a result of higher turnaround activity;

•increased income from equity method investments of $71 million primarily due to increased income from our Martinez Renewables joint venture; and

•increased other income of $204 million largely due to insurance proceeds and higher income on RIN sales.

Table of Contents

Costs and expenses increased $411 million primarily due to:

•increased cost of revenues of $299 million mainly due to higher contract services and material and supply expenses related to increased turnaround activity; and

•increased selling, general and administrative expenses of $88 million primarily due to increased equity compensation.

We recorded a combined federal, state and foreign income tax provision of $293 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which was lower than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to permanent tax benefits related to net income attributable to noncontrolling interests offset by state taxes. We recorded a combined federal, state and foreign income tax provision of $823 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, which was higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state taxes offset by permanent tax benefits related to net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Segment Results

We classify our business in the following reportable segments: Refining & Marketing and Midstream. Segment adjusted EBITDA represents adjusted EBITDA attributable to the reportable segments. Amounts included in income before income taxes and excluded from segment adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) turnaround expenses and (iv) other adjustments as deemed necessary. These items are either: (i) believed to be non-recurring in nature; (ii) not believed to be allocable or controlled by the segment or (iii) are not tied to the operational performance of the segment.

First Quarter 2024 Compared to First Quarter 2023

Refining & Marketing segment revenues decreased $2.17 billion primarily due to decreased average refined product sales prices of $0.18 per gallon and decreased refined product sales volumes of 75 mbpd.

Net refinery throughput decreased 173 mbpd during the first quarter of 2024 largely due to increased turnaround activity during the quarter.

Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA decreased $1.98 billion primarily due to decreases in per barrel margins and throughput. Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA was $7.73 per barrel for the first quarter of 2024, versus $15.09 per barrel for the first quarter of 2023.

Refining & Marketing margin was $18.99 per barrel for the first quarter of 2024 compared to $26.15 per barrel for the first quarter of 2023. Refining & Marketing margin is affected by our performance against the market indicators shown earlier, which use spot market values and an estimated mix of crude purchases and product sales. Based on the market indicators and our crude oil throughput, we estimate a net negative impact of approximately $2 billion on Refining & Marketing margin for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to narrower crack spreads. Our reported Refining & Marketing margin differs from market indicators due to the mix of crudes purchased and their costs, the effect of market structure on our crude oil acquisition prices, the effect of RIN prices on the crack spread, and other items like refinery yields, other feedstock variances and fuel margin from sales to direct dealers. These factors had an estimated net negative effect of approximately $300 million on Refining & Marketing segment adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, refining operating costs, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $0.46 per barrel, or $40 million, primarily driven by lower throughput and higher expenses for projects conducted during turnaround activity.

Table of Contents

Distribution costs, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $0.69 per barrel, or $98 million, and include fees paid to MPLX of $967 million and $935 million for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The per barrel increase was primarily due to higher pipeline tariff rates and logistics fee escalations and lower throughput.

Refining planned turnaround costs increased $1.27 per barrel, or $291 million, due to the scope and timing of turnaround activity and lower throughput.

Depreciation and amortization increased $0.08 per barrel due to lower throughput.

We purchase RINs to satisfy a portion of our RFS2 compliance. Our expenses associated with purchased RINs were $301 million and $467 million in the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The RINs expense is included in Refining & Marketing margin. The decrease in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to increased RINs generated and acquired from our Martinez Renewables joint venture and lower obligated volume.

(a)Corporate costs consist primarily of MPC’s corporate administrative expenses and costs related to certain non-operating assets, except for corporate overhead expenses attributable to MPLX, which are included in the Midstream segment. Corporate costs include depreciation and amortization of $24 million and $19 million for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively.

First Quarter 2024 Compared to First Quarter 2023

In the first quarter of 2024, corporate expenses increased $44 million primarily due to increased equity compensation of $33 million which includes a $26 million increase in stock compensation expense driven by the fair value remeasurement of outstanding performance-based stock units.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Management uses a financial measure to evaluate our operating performance that is calculated and presented on the basis of a methodology other than in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure we use is as follows:

Refining & Marketing Margin

Refining & Marketing margin is defined as sales revenue less cost of refinery inputs and purchased products. We use and believe our investors use this non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate our Refining & Marketing segment’s operating and financial performance as it is the most comparable measure to the industry’s market reference product margins. This measure should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, Refining & Marketing gross margin or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Investing activities	(824)		(816)
Financing activities	(2,977)		(3,907)
Total decrease in cash	$	(2,269)	$	(666)

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $2.53 billion in the first three months of 2024 compared to the first three months of 2023. The change in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a decrease in operating results and an unfavorable change in working capital of $764 million, when comparing the change in working capital in both periods.

For the first three months of 2024, changes in working capital, excluding changes in short-term debt, were a net $389 million use of cash primarily due to the effects of increasing energy commodity prices and volumes at the end of the period on working capital. Accounts payable increased primarily due to increases in crude oil prices and volumes. Current receivables increased primarily due to increases in crude oil volumes and prices and refined product prices, partially offset by a decrease in refined product volumes. Inventories increased primarily due to increases in refined product and crude oil inventory volumes. Additionally, working capital was unfavorably impacted by changes in prepaid assets and current liabilities.

For the first three months of 2023, changes in working capital, excluding changes in short-term debt, were a net $375 million source of cash primarily due to the effects of decreasing energy commodity volumes and prices at the end of the period on working capital. Accounts payable decreased primarily due to decreases in crude oil volumes and prices. Inventories increased

primarily due to increases in crude oil and refined product inventories. Current receivables decreased primarily due to decreases in crude oil volumes and prices. Additionally, working capital was favorably impacted by changes in income tax receivable.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $824 million in the first three months of 2024 compared to $816 million in the first three months of 2023.

•In the first three months of 2024, purchases of short-term investments of $1.66 billion were more than offset by maturities and sales of short-term investments of $1.89 billion and $193 million, respectively. In the first three months of 2023, purchases of short-term investments of $2.11 billion were partially offset by maturities and sales of short-term investments of $1.16 billion and $631 million, respectively.

•Additions to property, plant and equipment increased $128 million. See the Capital Requirements section for additional information on our capital investment plan.

•Cash used for acquisitions of $622 million in the first three months of 2024 included an acquisition in our Midstream segment.

•Cash used in investments was $125 million for the first three months of 2024 compared to $207 million for the first three months of 2023. In 2024, investments primarily included a $92 million equity method investment contribution made in March 2024 for the repayment of MPLX’s share of the Dakota Access joint venture’s debt. In 2023, investments primarily included the Martinez Renewables joint venture and the acquisition of a 49.9 percent equity interest in LF Bioenergy for approximately $56 million.

The consolidated statements of cash flows exclude changes to the consolidated balance sheets that did not affect cash. A reconciliation of additions to property, plant and equipment per the consolidated statements of cash flows to reported total capital expenditures and investments follows.

MPC, Excluding MPLX

We control MPLX through our ownership of the general partner; however, the creditors of MPLX do not have recourse to MPC’s general credit through guarantees or other financial arrangements, except as noted. MPC has effectively guaranteed certain indebtedness of LOOP and LOCAP, in which MPLX holds an interest. Therefore, in the following table, we present the liquidity of MPC, excluding MPLX. MPLX liquidity is discussed in the following section.

Our liquidity, excluding MPLX, totaled $12.29 billion at March 31, 2024 consisting of:


	March 31, 2024
(Millions of dollars)	Total Capacity		Outstanding Borrowings		Outstanding Letters of Credit		Available Capacity
Bank revolving credit facility	$	5,000	$	—	$	1	$	4,999
Trade receivables facility(a)	100		—		—		100
Total	$	5,100	$	—	$	1	$	5,099
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments(b)							7,189
Total liquidity							$	12,288

(a)The committed borrowing and letter of credit issuance capacity under the trade receivables securitization facility is $100 million. In addition, the facility allows for the issuance of letters of credit in excess of the committed capacity at the discretion of the issuing banks.

(b)Excludes cash and cash equivalents of MPLX of $385 million.

Because of the alternatives available to us, including internally generated cash flow and access to capital markets and a commercial paper program, we believe that our short-term and long-term liquidity is adequate to fund not only our current operations, but also our near-term and long-term funding requirements, including capital spending programs, the repurchase of shares of our common stock, dividend payments, defined benefit plan contributions, repayment of debt maturities and other amounts that may ultimately be paid in connection with contingencies.

We have a commercial paper program that allows us to have a maximum of $2.0 billion in commercial paper outstanding. We do not intend to have outstanding commercial paper borrowings in excess of available capacity under our bank revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program.

MPC’s bank revolving credit facility and trade receivables facility contain representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and restrictions, including financial covenants, and events of default that we consider usual and customary for agreements of a similar type and nature. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with such covenants and restrictions.

Our intention is to maintain an investment-grade credit profile. As of March 31, 2024, the credit ratings on our senior unsecured debt are as follows.


Company	Rating Agency	Rating
MPC	Moody’s	Baa2 (stable outlook)
	Standard & Poor’s	BBB (stable outlook)
	Fitch	BBB (stable outlook)

The ratings reflect the respective views of the rating agencies and should not be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell or hold our securities. Although it is our intention to maintain a credit profile that supports an investment grade rating, there is no assurance that these ratings will continue for any given period of time. The ratings may be revised or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies if, in their respective judgments, circumstances so warrant. A rating from one rating agency should be evaluated independently of ratings from other rating agencies.

The agreements governing MPC’s debt obligations do not contain credit rating triggers that would result in the acceleration of interest, principal or other payments in the event that our credit ratings are downgraded. However, any downgrades of our senior unsecured debt could increase the applicable interest rates, yields and other fees payable under such agreements and may limit our flexibility to obtain financing in the future, including to refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, a downgrade of our senior unsecured debt rating to below investment-grade levels could, under certain circumstances, impact our ability to purchase crude oil on an unsecured basis and could result in us having to post letters of credit under existing transportation services or other agreements.

See Note 17 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt.

MPLX’s bank revolving credit facility contains certain representations and warranties, affirmative and restrictive covenants and events of default that we consider to be usual and customary for an agreement of this type. As of March 31, 2024, MPLX was in compliance with such covenants.

Our intention is to maintain an investment-grade credit profile for MPLX. As of March 31, 2024, the credit ratings on MPLX’s senior unsecured debt are as follows.


Company	Rating Agency	Rating
MPLX	Moody’s	Baa2 (stable outlook)
	Standard & Poor’s	BBB (stable outlook)
	Fitch	BBB (stable outlook)

The ratings reflect the respective views of the rating agencies and should not be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell or hold MPLX securities. Although it is our intention to maintain a credit profile that supports an investment grade rating for MPLX, there is no assurance that these ratings will continue for any given period of time. The ratings may be revised or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies if, in their respective judgments, circumstances so warrant. A rating from one rating agency should be evaluated independently of ratings from other rating agencies.

The agreements governing MPLX’s debt obligations do not contain credit rating triggers that would result in the acceleration of interest, principal or other payments in the event that MPLX credit ratings are downgraded. However, any downgrades of MPLX senior unsecured debt to below investment-grade ratings could increase the applicable interest rates, yields and other fees payable under such agreements. In addition, a downgrade of MPLX senior unsecured debt ratings to below investment-grade levels may limit MPLX’s ability to obtain future financing, including to refinance existing indebtedness.

See Note 17 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further discussion of MPLX’s debt.

Capital Requirements

Capital Investment Plan

MPC's capital investment plan for 2024 totals approximately $1.25 billion for capital projects and investments, excluding capitalized interest, potential acquisitions, if any, and MPLX’s capital investment plan. MPC’s capital investment plan includes all of the planned capital spending for Refining & Marketing and Corporate, as well as a portion of the planned capital investments for Midstream. The remainder of the planned capital spending for Midstream reflects the capital investment plan for MPLX, which totals $1.1 billion, excluding reimbursable capital and $92 million for the repayment of MPLX’s share of the Dakota Access joint venture’s debt due in 2024. We continuously evaluate our capital investment plan and make changes as conditions warrant.

(a) The average cost per share includes excise tax on share repurchases resulting from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, but does not reduce the share repurchase authorization.

From January 1, 2012 through March 31, 2024, our board of directors had approved $50.05 billion in total share repurchase authorizations and we repurchased a total of $45.42 billion of our common stock. As of March 31, 2024, MPC has $4.63 billion remaining under its share repurchase authorizations. On April 30, 2024, we announced that our board of directors approved an additional $5.0 billion share repurchase authorization. The authorization has no expiration date.

We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market repurchases, negotiated block transactions, accelerated share repurchases, tender offers or open market solicitations for shares, some of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and amount of repurchases will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and repurchases may be suspended, discontinued or restarted at any time.

See Note 8 and Note 24 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our share repurchase authorizations.

The timing and amount of repurchases will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and repurchases may be suspended, discontinued or restarted at any time.

Cash Commitments

Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2024, our purchase commitments primarily consist of obligations to purchase and transport crude oil used in our refining operations. During the first three months of 2024, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2023.

Our other contractual obligations primarily consist of long-term debt and pension and post-retirement obligations, for which additional information is included in Notes 17 and 22, respectively, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, and financing and operating leases.

Other Cash Commitments

On April 24, 2024, our board of directors declared a dividend of $0.825 per share on common stock. The dividend is payable June 10, 2024, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 16, 2024.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we made no contributions to our funded pension plans. We have no required funding for 2024, but may make voluntary contributions at our discretion depending on the anticipated funding status and plan asset performance.

We may, from time to time, repurchase our senior notes in the open market, in tender offers, in privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise in such volumes, at such prices and upon such other terms as we deem appropriate.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AND COMPLIANCE COSTS

We have incurred and may continue to incur substantial capital, operating and maintenance, and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately reflected in the prices of our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including the age and location of its operating facilities, marketing areas, production processes and whether it is also engaged in the petrochemical business or the marine transportation of crude oil and refined products.

As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, actual expenditures may vary as the number and scope of environmental projects are revised as a result of improved technology or changes in regulatory requirements.

There have been no additional significant changes to our environmental matters and compliance costs during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

As of March 31, 2024, there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

See Note 16 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information on our open derivative positions at March 31, 2024.

Sensitivity analysis of the effects on income from operations (“IFO”) of hypothetical 10 percent and 25 percent increases and decreases in commodity prices for open commodity derivative instruments as of March 31, 2024 is provided in the following table.


	Change in IFO from a Hypothetical Price Increase of				Change in IFO from a Hypothetical Price Decrease of
(Millions of dollars)	10%		25%		10%		25%
As of March 31, 2024
Crude	$	(64)	$	(161)	$	64	$	161
Refined products	4		10		(4)		(10)
Blending products	1		2		(1)		(2)
Soybean oil	(8)		(20)		8		20

We remain at risk for possible changes in the market value of commodity derivative instruments; however, such risk should be mitigated by price changes in the underlying physical commodity. Effects of these offsets are not reflected in the above sensitivity analysis.

We evaluate our portfolio of commodity derivative instruments on an ongoing basis and add or revise strategies in anticipation of changes in market conditions and in risk profiles. Changes to the portfolio after March 31, 2024 would cause future IFO effects to differ from those presented above.

Sensitivity analysis of the effect of a hypothetical 100-basis-point change in interest rates on long-term debt, including the portion classified as current and excluding finance leases, as of March 31, 2024 is provided in the following table. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued interest approximate carrying value and, in addition to short-term investments which are recorded at fair value, are relatively insensitive to changes in interest rates due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. Accordingly, these instruments are excluded from the table.

Table of Contents


(Millions of dollars)	Fair Value as of March 31, 2024(a)		Change in Fair Value(b)		Change in Net Income for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024(c)
Long-term debt
Fixed-rate	$	25,520	$	1,966	n/a
Variable-rate	—		—		—

(a)Fair value was based on market prices, where available, or current borrowing rates for financings with similar terms and maturities.

(b)Assumes a 100-basis-point decrease in the weighted average yield-to-maturity at March 31, 2024.

(c)Assumes a 100-basis-point change in interest rates. The change to net income was based on the weighted average balance of debt outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

At March 31, 2024, our long-term debt was composed of fixed-rate instruments. The fair value of our fixed-rate debt is relatively sensitive to interest rate fluctuations. Our sensitivity to interest rate declines and corresponding increases in the fair value of our debt unfavorably affects our results of operations and cash flows only when we elect to repurchase or otherwise retire fixed-rate debt at prices above carrying value. Interest rate fluctuations generally do not impact the fair value of our variable-rate debt, but may affect our results of operations and cash flows.

See Note 15 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information on the fair value of our debt.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024, the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. While it is possible that an adverse result in one or more of the lawsuits or proceedings in which we are a defendant could be material to us, based upon current information and our experience as a defendant in other matters, we believe that these lawsuits and proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Item 103 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC requires disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions, unless we reasonably believe that the matter will result in no monetary sanctions, or in monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, of less than a specified threshold of $1 million for this purpose.

Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the legal matters previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

EPA Enforcement

On December 18, 2023, EPA Region 6 issued a Notice of Violation and Opportunity to Confer alleging violations of the National Emission Standard for Benzene Waste Operations at 40 C.F.R. Part 61, Subpart FF (“BWON”) and of the New Source Performance Standards for Volatile Organic Compounds from Petroleum Wastewater Systems at 40 C.F.R. Part 60, Subpart QQQ (“NSPS QQQ”) at our Garyville refinery. On January 10, 2024, EPA Region 5 issued a Finding of Violation alleging violations of BWON and NSPS QQQ at our St. Paul Park refinery. In addition, EPA has conducted a compliance inspection at our Anacortes refinery. In February 2024, EPA published an enforcement alert noting its ongoing efforts to evaluate petroleum refineries’ compliance with BWON and NSPS QQQ. We have begun discussions with EPA to resolve these matters. We cannot currently estimate the amount of any civil penalty or the timing of the resolution of these matters, but do not believe any civil penalty will have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
