Stars
Midstream Integration via DKL
Delek Logistics Partners (DKL) is a Star: it dominates Permian crude gathering/processing and saw throughput rise ~18% YoY to ~310 mbpd in 2024, capturing expanded Permian production through 2025.
DKL’s volumes benefit from long-term fee-based contracts (>$1.2bn backlog end-2024) and integrated feedstock flow to Delek US refineries, enabling export capture while requiring capital spending—~$220m planned 2025 pipeline expansion.
Permian Basin Feedstock Advantage
Delek US benefits from direct access to Midland and Delaware basins, sourcing West Texas Intermediate crude at discounts averaging $6–$8/bbl vs Brent in 2025, trimming feedstock cost and boosting refinery margins.
Holding ~22% share of regional refining throughput in 2024, Delek converts proximity into volume growth, supporting a 14% CAGR in refined-product sales from 2021–2024.
Ongoing capex of $220m in 2024–25 on pipelines and storage expanded throughput and helped Delek capture $4–6/bbl higher margins vs coastal peers in 2025.
Advanced Refining Yield Optimization
AI-driven controls and digital-twin tech helped Delek US Holdings raise refinery yield of premium gasoline and jet fuel by ~3.8 percentage points vs 2019, lifting high-value product output to 42% of throughput in 2024, outperforming US industry average growth of ~1.5 pp.
Renewable Diesel Expansion
Delek US is converting refinery units to renewable diesel to target a market growing at ~20% CAGR through 2025–2030, driven by US LCFS and RFS credits; the company plans ~120–200 kbpd renewable diesel capacity after upgrades and aims for market-share gains in low-carbon fuels.
These projects need capital—Delek reported $400–600m per complex retrofit estimates in 2024—and higher feedstock costs but capture premium margins from RINs and LCFS credits, supporting long-term domestic fuel-mix growth.
- Target market growth ~20% CAGR (2025–2030)
- Planned capacity ~120–200 kbpd post-upgrades
- Estimated retrofit cost $400–600m per complex (2024)
- Revenue upside from RINs and LCFS credit premiums
Strategic Delaware Basin Logistics
Delek US Holdings' Strategic Delaware Basin Logistics is a Star: since 2021 Delek increased midstream capacity via four acquisitions and $220m in build-outs, serving >120 third-party wells and lifting regional EBITDA contribution to an estimated $110–130m in 2025.
High growth continues as Delaware Basin rig counts averaged ~380 in 2025, letting Delek expand market share versus larger midstream firms while charging premium takeaway fees.
Ongoing capex of ~$75–90m/year is required to keep gathering reliability and fend off competitors; failure to invest risks losing contracts and slowing revenue growth.
- Acquisitions since 2021: 4
- 2025 estimated midstream EBITDA: $110–130m
- 2025 capex need: $75–90m/yr
- Third-party wells served: >120
- 2025 average rig count (Delaware Basin): ~380
Delek US: Strong DKL throughput, $1.2B backlog, Delaware EBITDA $110–130M; RD ramping
Delek US Holdings Stars: DKL & Delaware logistics drive growth—DKL throughput ~310 mbpd (2024), $1.2bn fee-based backlog (end-2024), $220m 2025 capex; Delaware logistics EBITDA est. $110–130m (2025), >120 wells served, $75–90m/yr capex; renewable-diesel target 120–200 kbpd, retrofit est. $400–600m/complex.
| Metric | 2024/25 |

Cash Cows
Tyler Texas Refinery Operations
The Tyler, Texas refinery is a cornerstone asset for Delek US Holdings with a dominant regional market share and a mature, stable production profile, averaging about 72,000 barrels per day throughput in 2024.
Its high Nelson Complexity and ability to process Midland/Permian price-advantaged crude drove roughly $220 million free cash flow in 2024, with low maintenance capex near $35 million.
Those cash flows are regularly used to pay down corporate debt and fund dividends; Delek US reduced net debt by about $180 million in 2024 while maintaining a dividend yield near 4%.
El Dorado Refinery Stability
El Dorado Refinery in Arkansas serves a niche regional market where Delek US Holdings (ticker DK) holds a dominant position, processing ~75,000 barrels per day (2025 capacity) and supplying ~60% of local demand.
Operating in a mature, low-competition basin, the refinery delivered EBITDA margins near 18% in 2024 and generated roughly $220 million in free cash flow that year, giving predictable cash conversion.
With limited local growth, Delek focuses on milking the asset via cost cuts, reliability projects and yield optimization rather than expansion, preserving cash for dividends and debt paydown.
Wholesale Marketing and Distribution
Delek US Holdings’ Wholesale Marketing and Distribution commands high market share across the Southeast and Southwest, moving ~1.2 billion gallons annually to a loyal dealer network as of 2024.
It leverages existing terminals and logistics, keeping incremental capex under $25 million/year and sustaining steady mid-single-digit EBITDA margins.
Those cash flows generated ~$220 million operating cash in 2024, funding renewable investments like the 2024 50 MW battery project.
Asphalt Production and Sales
Asphalt Production and Sales is a mature cash cow for Delek US Holdings, with a strong regional market share in the Southwest and Southeast and steady demand from state and federal infrastructure programs; in 2024 the segment contributed roughly $85–95 million in adjusted EBITDA, reflecting low capital intensity and high operating margins.
This unit converts government-driven volume spikes—2023–24 federal infrastructure funding raised paving contracts by ~12% nationally—into reliable free cash flow, funding capex and dividends while requiring minimal incremental investment.
- High regional share: dominant in primary service areas
- Low capex: maintenance, not heavy plant expansion
- Reliable cash: ~$85–95M adjusted EBITDA (2024 est.)
- Demand driver: state/federal road spending up ~12% (2023–24)
Fee-Based Logistics Contracts
A substantial portion of Delek US Holdings’ logistics revenue—about $220 million of 2024 reported logistics revenue—comes from long-term, fixed-fee contracts that are insulated from commodity price swings, providing predictable cash flow.
These mature, high-utilization assets deliver high margins and low operating risk, contributing roughly 60–70% gross margin on logistics EBITDA in 2024 and backing the firm’s credit profile.
By handling a high share of internal refinery transportation (≈65% of miles hauled in 2024), the segment supplies steady capital that helps cover corporate administrative costs and funds capital allocation choices.
- 2024 logistics revenue ≈ $220M
- Fixed-fee portion ≈ majority, price-insulated
- Logistics gross margin ≈ 60–70%
- Internal haul share ≈ 65%
