Delek US Holdings Reports Record Net Income For Fourth Quarter And Full-Year 2012

Contribution margin increased to $11.6 million from $7.8 million in fourth quarter 2011. This increase can be attributed to a record margin in the west Texas wholesale business, the contribution beginning on November 7, 2012 from contracts associated with services provided to Delek US' refineries, and fees generated by the Paline Pipeline, which was acquired in December 2011.

Retail Segment

Retail segment contribution margin was $8.7 million in the fourth quarter 2012. This compares with fourth quarter 2011 results of $8.5 million, which included a goodwill impairment charge of $2.2 million. Merchandising margin increased to 29.6% in fourth quarter 2012, up from 29.2% in the same prior year period. This increase partially offset a decline in fuel margin to 13.8 cents per gallon in fourth quarter 2012 from 14.6 cents per gallon in the prior year period.

Initiatives to improve our store portfolio, such as reimaging and building new stores, adding food offerings and increasing private label products, continued to be successful. These initiatives have benefited same store merchandising sales trends, which increased 0.8% in fourth quarter 2012 from the same prior year period.

At the conclusion of the fourth quarter 2012, the retail segment operated 373 locations, versus 377 locations at the end of the fourth quarter 2011.
