Vertex Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:VTNR) ("Vertex" or the "Company"), a
leading specialty refiner and marketer of high-quality refined
products and renewable fuels, today announced its operational and
financial results for the second quarter of 2024. The Company also
updated its progress in the optimization of its hydrocracking
capacity between conventional production and renewables
production.
The Company will host a conference call to discuss second
quarter 2024 results today, at 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time. Details
regarding the conference call are included at the end of this
release.
Highlights for the second quarter of 2024 and through the date
of this press release include:
- Secured new $15 million and $20 million loans, as previously
disclosed, enhancing the Company’s liquidity;
- Modified certain terms and conditions of the current term loan
agreement and appointed Seth Bullock as Chief Restructuring
Officer;
- Continued safe operation of the Company’s Mobile, Alabama
refinery (the “Mobile Refinery”) with second quarter 2024
conventional throughput of 67,758 barrels per day (bpd);
- Reported net loss attributable to the Company of ($53.8)
million, or ($0.58) per fully-diluted share;
- Recorded Adjusted EBITDA of ($22.4) million driven by a 28%
decrease in crack spreads compared to the first quarter of
2024;
- Decreased selling, general and administrative expense by 6%
compared to the first quarter of 2024 and by 12% compared to the
second quarter of 2023; and
- Completed running all renewable feedstock and began optimizing
the Mobile Refinery hydrocracker capacity from renewable diesel to
conventional fuels with expected contribution in Q4 2024.
Note: Schedules reconciling the Company’s generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and non-GAAP
financial results, including Adjusted EBITDA and certain key
performance indicators, are included later in this release (see
also “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators”,
below).
Mr. Benjamin P. Cowart, Vertex’s Chief Executive Officer,
stated, “We continued to demonstrate operational reliability for
conventional refining and overall continued strong performance in
safety. We saw a difficult crack spread environment driven by a
weakening in gasoline and diesel demand in the second quarter that
drove our Adjusted EBITDA lower. Consistent with the previously
announced pause and pivot strategy, Vertex successfully processed
the remaining inventories of renewable feedstock and safely
decommissioned the hydrotreater out of renewable service. The
Company also continued to manage expenses, seeing moderate
reductions in capital and fixed costs across the business.”
“Given continued near-term EBITDA and liquidity constraints, the
Company continues its pursuit of strategic pathways, considering
alternatives and exploring financing pathways to maximize value.
This includes working with our lenders to secure additional $15 and
$20 million loans in June and July, as well as naming Seth Bullock
as our Chief Restructuring Officer. Seth has significant experience
in the industry and understands Vertex’s operational and financial
capabilities very well. Seth is being brought in to assist Vertex
in managing through a difficult macro-economic environment and
providing additional expertise in liquidity management and
performance improvement. We believe that continued support from our
lenders is key to executing our strategic priorities which are
focused on managing our liquidity position, reducing our operating
costs, and improving margins.”
Mr. Cowart concluded, “We are focused on navigating through the
recent lower crack spreads and continue to believe that the
decision and execution to convert the hydrocracking unit to
conventional fuels will help us toward accomplishing our strategic
priorities for the second half of 2024 and into 2025.”
MOBILE REFINERY OPERATIONS
Total conventional throughput at the Mobile Refinery was 67,758
bpd in the second quarter of 2024. Total production of finished
high-value, light products, such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel,
represented approximately 64% of total production in the second
quarter of 2024, flat with the first quarter of 2024, and in line
with management’s original expectations, reflecting a continued
solid yield at the Mobile conventional refining facility.
The Mobile Refinery’s conventional operations generated a gross
profit of $6.4 million and $35.0 million of fuel gross margin (a
key performance indicator (KPI) discussed below) or $5.67 per
barrel during the second quarter of 2024, versus generating a gross
profit of $37.5 million, and fuel gross margin of $73.6 million, or
$12.63 per barrel in the first quarter of 2024. The decline in
profit and margin was driven by a 28% decrease in crack spreads
compared to the first quarter of 2024.
Total renewable throughput at the Mobile Renewable Diesel
facility was 3,092 bpd in the second quarter of 2024. Total
production of renewable diesel was 3,082 bpd reflecting a product
yield of 99.7%.
The Mobile Renewable Diesel facility operations generated a
gross loss of $(11.8) million and $4.5 million of fuel gross margin
(a KPI discussed below) or $16.08 per barrel during the second
quarter of 2024.
Renewable Business Pause and Pivot
As previously announced, Vertex is pausing renewable fuels
production and redirecting the hydrocracking unit to conventional
fuels and products. The Company had a previously planned catalyst
and maintenance turnaround scheduled for 2024. It will use that
planned turnaround to load conventional catalyst and bring the unit
out of turnaround in conventional service. In addition, the total
cost of about $10 million was previously budgeted as part of the
planned catalyst and maintenance turnaround and does not represent
a material change to our forecasted capital spend.
The Company has ceased renewable production and is on-schedule
for the conversion of its Hydrocracker back to conventional
service. This focus on the conventional business seeks to capture
available margins in a more established market with an on-stream
target of the fourth quarter of 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Update
Vertex reported second quarter 2024 net loss attributable to the
Company of ($53.8) million, or ($0.58) per fully-diluted share,
versus net loss attributable to the Company of ($17.7) million, or
($0.19) per fully-diluted share for the first quarter of 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA was $(22.4) million for the second quarter of 2024,
compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $18.6 million in the first quarter
of 2024. The reduction in quarter-over-quarter results was
primarily driven by decreased crack spread pricing across all
products.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity Update
As of June 30, 2024, Vertex had total debt outstanding of $303.8
million, including $15.2 million in 6.25% Senior Convertible Notes,
$207.2 million outstanding on the Company’s Term Loan, finance
lease obligations of $67.5 million, and $13.9 million in other
obligations. The Company had total cash and cash equivalents of
$18.9 million, including $0.1 million of restricted cash on the
balance sheet as of June 30, 2024, for a net debt position of
$284.9 million.
As previously disclosed, on July 24, 2024 the Company reached an
agreement with its senior lenders to modify certain terms and
conditions of the current term loan agreement and agreed to provide
a term loan in the amount of $20 million. The new term loan
provided an incremental $20.0 million in borrowings.
Vertex management continuously monitors current market
conditions to assess expected cash generation and liquidity needs
against its available cash position, using the forward crack
spreads in the market. Additionally, the Company continues to
evaluate strategic financial opportunities seeking further
enhancements to its current liquidity position.

PROJECTIONS
The financial projections (the “Projections”) included herein
were prepared by Vertex in good faith using assumptions believed to
be reasonable. A significant number of assumptions about the
operations of the business of Vertex were based, in part, on
economic, competitive, and general business conditions prevailing
at the time the Projections were developed. Any future changes in
these conditions, may materially impact the ability of Vertex to
achieve the financial results set forth in the Projections. The
Projections are based on numerous assumptions, including
realization of the operating strategy of Vertex; industry
performance; no material adverse changes in applicable legislation
or regulations, or the administration thereof, or generally
accepted accounting principles; general business and economic
conditions; competition; retention of key management and other key
employees; absence of material contingent or unliquidated
litigation, indemnity, or other claims; minimal changes in current
pricing; static material and equipment pricing; no significant
increases in interest rates or inflation; and other matters, many
of which will be beyond the control of Vertex, and some or all of
which may not materialize. The Projections also assume the
continued uptime of the Company’s facilities at historical levels
and the successful funding of, timely completion of, and successful
outcome of, planned capital projects. Additionally, to the extent
that the assumptions inherent in the Projections are based upon
future business decisions and objectives, they are subject to
change. Although the Projections are presented with numerical
specificity and are based on reasonable expectations developed by
Vertex’s management, the assumptions and estimates underlying the
Projections are subject to significant business, economic, and
competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which will be
beyond the control of Vertex. Accordingly, the Projections are only
estimates and are necessarily speculative in nature. It is expected
that some or all of the assumptions in the Projections will not be
realized and that actual results will vary from the Projections.
Such variations may be material and may increase over time. In
light of the foregoing, readers are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on the Projections. The projected financial information
contained herein should not be regarded as a representation or
warranty by Vertex, its management, advisors, or any other person
that the Projections can or will be achieved. Vertex cautions that
the Projections are speculative in nature and based upon subjective
decisions and assumptions. As a result, the Projections should not
be relied on as necessarily predictive of actual future events.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND KEY PERFORMANCE
INDICATORS
In addition to our results calculated under generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), in this news release we also present
certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and key performance
indicators. Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures include Adjusted Gross
Margin, Fuel Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA, for the Company’s
Legacy Refining and Marketing segment, and the total Refining and
Marketing segment, as a whole, and Net Long-Term Debt and Net
Leverage(collectively, the “Non-U.S. GAAP
Financial Measures”). Key performance indicators include
Adjusted Gross Margin, Fuel Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA for
Conventional, Renewable and the Mobile Refinery as a whole, and
Fuel Gross Margin Per Barrel of Throughput and Adjusted Gross
Margin Per Barrel of Throughput for Conventional, Renewable and the
Mobile Refinery as a whole (collectively, the “KPIs”). EBITDA represents net income before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, for continued and
discontinued operations. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA from
operations plus or minus unrealized gain or losses on hedging
activities, Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) costs (mainly related to
Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs), and inventory adjustments,
acquisition costs, gain on change in value of derivative warrant
liability, environmental clean-up, stock-based compensation, (gain)
loss on sale of assets, and certain other unusual or non-recurring
charges included in selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as gross profit (loss) plus or
minus unrealized gain or losses on hedging activities and inventory
valuation adjustments. Fuel Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted
Gross Margin, plus production costs, operating expenses and
depreciation attributable to cost of revenues and other non-fuel
items included in costs of revenues including realized and
unrealized gain or losses on hedging activities, RFS costs (mainly
related to RINs), fuel financing costs and other revenues and cost
of sales items. Fuel Gross Margin Per Barrel of Throughput is
calculated as fuel gross margin divided by total throughput barrels
for the period presented. Operating Expenses Per Barrel of
Throughput is defined as total operating expenses divided by total
barrels of throughput. RIN Adjusted Fuel Gross Margin is defined as
Fuel Gross Margin minus RIN expense divided by total barrels of
throughput. RIN Adjusted Fuel Gross Margin Per Barrel of Throughput
is calculated as RIN Adjusted Fuel Gross Margin divided by total
throughput barrels for the period presented. Net Long-Term Debt is
long-term debt and lease obligations, adjusted for unamortized
discount and deferred financing costs, insurance premiums financed,
less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, and various
short-term notes including insurance premium financing. Net
leverage is defined as Long-Term Debt divided by trailing twelve
month Adjusted EBITDA.
Each of the Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs are
discussed in greater detail below. The (a) Non-U.S. GAAP Financial
Measures are “non-U.S. GAAP financial
measures”, and (b) the KPIs are, presented as supplemental
measures of the Company’s performance. They are not presented in
accordance with U.S. GAAP. We use the Non-U.S. GAAP Financial
Measures and KPIs as supplements to U.S. GAAP measures of
performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business
strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to allocate resources and
to compare our performance relative to our peers. Additionally,
these measures, when used in conjunction with related U.S. GAAP
financial measures, provide investors with an additional financial
analytical framework which management uses, in addition to
historical operating results, as the basis for financial,
operational and planning decisions and present measurements that
third parties have indicated are useful in assessing the Company
and its results of operations. The Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
and KPIs are presented because we believe they provide additional
useful information to investors due to the various noncash items
during the period. Non-U.S. GAAP financial information and KPIs
similar to the Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs are also
frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties
to evaluate companies in our industry. The Non-U.S. GAAP Financial
Measures and KPIs are unaudited, and have limitations as analytical
tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a
substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under
U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are: the Non-U.S. GAAP
Financial Measures and KPIs do not reflect cash expenditures, or
future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual
commitments; the Non-GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs do not
reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital
needs; the Non-GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs do not reflect the
significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to
service interest or principal payments, on debt or cash income tax
payments; although depreciation and amortization are noncash
charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have
to be replaced in the future, the Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
and KPIs do not reflect any cash requirements for such
replacements; the Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs
represent only a portion of our total operating results; and other
companies in this industry may calculate the Non-U.S. GAAP
Financial Measures and KPIs differently than we do, limiting their
usefulness as a comparative measure. You should not consider the
Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs in isolation, or as
substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under
U.S. GAAP. The Company’s presentation of these measures should not
be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected
by unusual or nonrecurring items. We compensate for these
limitations by providing a reconciliation of each of these non-U.S.
GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs to the most comparable U.S. GAAP
measure below. We encourage investors and others to review our
business, results of operations, and financial information in their
entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view
these non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures and KPIs in conjunction with
the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure.
For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures and
KPIs, please see the sections titled “Unaudited Reconciliation of
Gross Profit (Loss) From Continued and Discontinued Operations to
Adjusted Gross Margin, Fuel Gross Margin, Fuel Gross Margin Per
Barrel of Throughput and Operating Expenses Per Barrel of
Throughput”, “Unaudited Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net
loss from Continued and Discontinued Operations”, and “Unaudited
Reconciliation of Long-Term Debt to Net Long-Term Debt and Net
Leverage”, at the end of this release.
