Research Alert: Psx: Derivative Headwinds, But A Q1 Beat Nonetheless

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:PSX surprised to the upside in Q1 with adjusted EPS of $0.49 vs. a loss of $0.90 in the prior year, beating consensus by $0.88. However, PSX incurred sizable $839M losses on derivative positions against just $200M in adjusted earnings. The WRB acquisition boosted net crude throughput capacity by 45k b/d to 1.993M b/d, while midstream expansion efforts increased Sweeny NGL fractionation capacity by 23% and Freeport LPG export dock capacity by 15%. Upcoming projects include the Iron Mesa gas plant (300 mmcf/d) and two polymers projects, both targeting 2027 startups. Refining utilization remained strong at 95% despite planned turnarounds, though realized margins declined to $10.11/b from $12.48/b sequentially. Midstream volumes pulled back from Winter Storm Fern, with NGL pipeline throughput dropping to 930 MBD vs. 1,006 MBD in Q4. We think the efficiency efforts can support increased LNG and LPG exports to Asia, which faces supply shortages following Strait of Hormuz blockades.

Refining Margins Unlikely to Return to Pre-Conflict Levels Anytime Soon, Morgan Stanley Says

Refining margins are unlikely to return to pre-conflict levels anytime soon, even if the Strait of Hormuz reopens, due to refinery damage, the time required to normalize trade flows, and the need to rebuild inventories, Morgan Stanley analysts said in a Friday note to clients.Analysts said first-quarter financial results for refining companies will be pressured by lower capture rates amid still-tight crude differentials, planned and unplanned maintenance, and derivative headwinds, partially offset by stronger secondary products.Morgan Stanley said near-term U.S. refining margins have roughly doubled since the start of the Iran conflict and now sit near levels last reached in 2022 and 2023.On Phillips 66 (PSX), analysts upgraded the stock to overweight from equal-weight.They said the chemicals business is a key factor that sets the company apart from the rest of the sector, with earnings from the segment expected to rise to about $1.1 billion from $352 million. They also raised the price target to $174 from $147.Morgan Stanley retained an overweight rating on Marathon Petroleum (MPC) and raised its price target to $233 from $200. It also maintained an overweight rating on HF Sinclair (DINO) and increased its price target to $66 from $57.On Valero Energy (VLO), Morgan Stanley maintained an equal-weight rating and raised the price target to $222 from $182. It also maintained an equal-weight rating on Delek US Holdings (DK) and raised its price target to $40 from $38.On PBF Energy (PBF), Morgan Stanley maintained an underweight rating and raised the price target to $34 from $27.Price: $224.00, Change: $+2.90, Percent Change: +1.31%

Phillips 66 Ships US Crude on Foreign Vessel After Jones Act Waiver, Bloomberg Analysis Says

US crude shipments via foreign vessels begin after a Jones Act waiver, marking the first such cargo since the March 18 policy shift, according to a Bloomberg analysis on Thursday.Phillips 66 (PSX) loaded Bakken crude in early April from Beaumont, Texas, onto the Malta-flagged Htm Warrior for delivery to Pennsylvania, the report said.The cargo will supply the Trainer refinery in Pennsylvania, operated by Monroe Energy, a subsidiary of Delta Air Lines (DAL), expanding supply options for East Coast refiners, according to the analysis.President Donald Trump signed a 60-day Jones waiver on March 18, allowing foreign-flagged ships to transport goods between US ports, the analysis added.The waiver temporarily suspends the 1920 Jones Act, which requires vessels moving cargo between US ports to be US-built, US-flagged and US-operated, the analysis said.The administration introduced the exemption to boost fuel and crude supplies amid geopolitical tensions linked to Iran that disrupted global energy flows.No other foreign-flagged vessels have carried US crude from the Gulf Coast to the Atlantic Coast since the waiver took effect, the analysis said, citing Kpler data.However, multiple cargoes of Middle Eastern crude have recently moved along the same route on foreign-flagged ships, highlighting shifting trade flows under the temporary policy change, the analysis added.

Kinder Morgan Q1 Gas Transport Volumes Rise; Oil, Refined Product Volumes Decline

Kinder Morgan (KMI) reported Q1 earnings Wednesday, showing total transported natural gas volumes rose to 49,475 billion British thermal units per day over the year, from 45,978 billion Btu/d a year earlier.Total oil segment delivery volumes declined to 1.97 million barrels per day in Q1 2026, compared with 2.05 million b/d a year earlier.Within the oil segment, transported volumes of crude and condensate fell to 420,000 b/d in the quarter, down from 476,000 b/d a year earlier.Total refined product volumes edged lower, with transported volumes at 1.5 million b/d in Q1 2026, compared with 1.6 million b/d a year earlier.In the Products Pipelines segment, transported gasoline volumes dropped to 912,000 b/d from 933,000 b/d in Q1 2025, and jet fuel volumes also fell to 293,000 b/d from 302,000 b/d a year ago.In contrast, diesel fuel volumes increased to 340,000 b/d from 336,000 b/d in the year-ago period."Our Natural Gas Pipelines segment drove the bulk of that outperformance, benefiting from winter storm Fern and extended cold weather," Chief Executive Officer Kim Dang said.Executive Chairman Richard D. Kinder said geopolitical uncertainty surrounding the Middle East conflict remained elevated."The geopolitical landscape became even more turbulent this quarter, with conflict in the Middle East joining the ongoing war in Ukraine as a source of significant commodity price volatility," Kinder said, adding that the company was "largely insulated from that volatility.""Longer-term, these global conflicts highlight the benefits of securing liquefied natural gas supplies from the United States, driving incremental demand for the services we provide those shippers," he said, noting that domestic natural gas demand growth projections, particularly in the power sector, continue to be robust.On April 20, KMI and Phillips 66 (PSX) closed a second open season for the proposed Western Gateway Pipeline system with sufficient customer commitments to advance the project, subject to agreements and respective board approvals.The refined products pipeline aims to connect Midwest and Gulf Coast refinery supplies to Phoenix, Arizona and California markets with connectivity to Las Vegas, Nevada, via Kinder Morgan's CALNEV Pipeline. Completion is targeted for mid-2029.

Phillips 66, Kinder Morgan Push Western Gateway Project to Supply West Coast Markets

Phillips 66 (PSX) and Kinder Morgan (KMI) said Monday they are advancing the Western Gateway Pipeline after securing shipper commitments, targeting refined product flows to western US markets.The companies said the project moved forward after a successful open season attracted sufficient long-term commitments, pending final agreements and board approvals.The Western Gateway Pipeline is planned to connect Midwest and Gulf Coast refineries into key markets in Phoenix and California, while also linking into Las Vegas through Kinder Morgan's California-Nevada Pipeline.The development combines a newly built line from Borger, Texas to Phoenix with the conversion of Kinder Morgan's Santa Fe Petroleum Pipeline between Colton and Phoenix, enabling products to move westward into California.Feedstock will originate from refinery networks connected at Borger, Texas, with Phillips 66's Gold Pipeline set to be reversed to redirect product flows toward Borger and supply the new system.Phillips 66 Chief Executive Officer Mark Lashier said strong customer participation highlights the project's role in meeting long-term fuel transport needs, adding it is expected to enhance supply flexibility and reliability across West Coast markets.Kinder Morgan Chief Executive Officer Kim Dang said the firm will use its existing pipeline network to support growth in Arizona and California, leveraging its footprint to deliver an efficient transport solution.
