The term “DGD,” as used in this report, may refer to Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC, its wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, or both of them taken as a whole.

These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these interim unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of our results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. These interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from our audited financial statements as of that date. For further information, refer to our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these interim unaudited financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, we review our estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

ASU 2023-07

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, to improve interim and annual disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and other segment related items. We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2024 and it did not affect our financial position or our results of operations, but did result in additional disclosures.

ASU 2023-09

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to improve annual income tax disclosures by requiring further disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This ASU

VALERO ENERGY CORPORATION

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

also includes certain other amendments intended to improve the effectiveness of annual income tax disclosures. We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2025 on a retrospective basis and it did not affect our financial position or our results of operations, but will result in additional annual disclosures.

Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted

ASU 2024-03

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement Reporting—Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, to improve interim and annual disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information in the notes to the financial statements about certain expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and selling expenses. We expect to adopt this ASU effective January 1, 2027 and the adoption will not affect our financial position or our results of operations, but will result in additional disclosures.

2. IMPAIRMENT

In recent years, the State of California adopted legislation that has subjected our refining and marketing operations to potential increased operational restrictions and new reporting requirements. The considerable uncertainty and potential adverse effects on our operations and financial performance resulted in the evaluation of strategic alternatives for our operations in California.

In March 2025, we approved a plan with respect to the operations at our Benicia Refinery and currently intend to cease refining operations by the end of April 2026. In addition, we considered strategic alternatives for our remaining operations in California. As a result, we updated our evaluation of potential impairment and concluded that the carrying values of our Benicia and Wilmington refineries were not recoverable as of March 31, 2025. Therefore, we reduced the carrying values of these assets to their estimated fair values of $722 million and $847 million, respectively, and recognized a combined asset impairment loss of $1.1 billion in our Refining segment in March 2025. See Note 12 for disclosure related to the method used to determine the fair values.

Included in the recoverability assessments discussed above was the recognition of expected asset retirement obligations of $337 million, which primarily reflects the fair value of estimated costs for certain legal obligations to decommission the assets based on a range of potential settlement dates as of March 31, 2025.

In connection with our plan to cease refining operations at our Benicia Refinery, we shortened the estimated useful life of the refinery assets, and as a result, will depreciate the revised carrying value of the net property, plant, and equipment and other noncurrent assets to the estimated salvage value of $107 million through April 2026. Accordingly, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded incremental depreciation of approximately $100 million and $200 million, respectively, in depreciation and amortization expense.

In addition, we implemented a transition plan for the affected employees of the Benicia Refinery, which includes retention incentive payments and separation benefits. During the third quarter of 2025, we recognized a liability of $50 million for these one-time costs, which we expect to distribute to eligible

VALERO ENERGY CORPORATION

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

employees by the end of the second quarter of 2026. These costs are included in operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization expense) in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and are attributable to our Refining segment.

We continue to evaluate strategic alternatives for our remaining operations in California.

3. INVENTORIES

Inventories consisted of the following (in millions):

September 30, 2025December 31, 2024

Renewable diesel feedstocks and products840872
Ethanol feedstocks and products292342
Materials and supplies401364
Inventories$7,394$7,761

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the replacement cost (market value) of last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventories exceeded their LIFO carrying amounts by $3.4 billion and $4.0 billion, respectively. Our non-LIFO inventories accounted for $1.2 billion and $1.3 billion of our total inventories as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

4. DEBT

Public Debt

On February 7, 2025, we issued $650 million of 5.150 percent Senior Notes due February 15, 2030. Proceeds from this debt issuance totaled $649 million before deducting the underwriting discount and other debt issuance costs. We used a portion of the net proceeds to repay the $189 million outstanding principal balance of our 3.65 percent Senior Notes that matured on March 15, 2025 and the $251 million outstanding principal balance of our 2.850 percent Senior Notes that matured on April 15, 2025.

In March 2024, we repaid the $167 million outstanding principal balance of our 1.200 percent Senior Notes that matured on March 15, 2024.

6. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Consolidated VIEs

We consolidate a VIE when we have a variable interest in an entity for which we are the primary beneficiary. As of September 30, 2025, the significant consolidated VIEs included:

  • DGD, a joint venture with a subsidiary of Darling Ingredients Inc. that owns and operates two plants that process waste and renewable feedstocks (predominantly animal fats, used cooking oils, vegetable oils, and inedible distillers corn oils (DCOs)) into renewable diesel, renewable naphtha, and neat sustainable aviation fuel (SAF)1; and

  • Central Mexico Terminals, a collective group of three subsidiaries of Infraestructura Energetica Nova, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (IEnova), which is a Mexican company and indirect subsidiary of Sempra Energy, a U.S. public company. We have terminaling agreements with Central Mexico Terminals that represent variable interests. We do not have an ownership interest in Central Mexico Terminals.

The assets of the consolidated VIEs can only be used to settle their own obligations and the creditors of the consolidated VIEs have no recourse to our other assets. We generally do not provide financial guarantees to the VIEs. Although we have provided credit facilities to some of the VIEs in support of their construction or acquisition activities and working capital requirements, these transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows are impacted by

___________________________________________________________________

1 DGD produces synthetic paraffinic kerosene (SPK), a renewable blending component, using the Hydrotreated Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) process. SPK is also commonly referred to as “neat SAF.” Current aviation regulations allow SPK to be blended up to 50 percent with conventional jet fuel for use in an aircraft. This blend is commonly referred to as “blended SAF” or “SAF.”

8. INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Expense

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, our effective tax rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate due to lower U.S. income before income tax expense primarily resulting from the asset impairment loss associated with our operations in California, as described in Note 2.

There was no significant variation in the customary relationship between income tax expense and income before income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

One Big Beautiful Bill Act

On July 4, 2025, legislation commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBB) was enacted, which resulted in a broad range of changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The most significant provisions affecting us include the following:

  • extension of the clean fuel production credit through December 31, 2029;

  • requirement that feedstocks for fuel produced after December 31, 2025 must be produced or grown exclusively in the U.S., Mexico, or Canada in order for such fuel to be eligible for the clean fuel production credit;

  • elimination of the special clean fuel production credit rate for SAF produced after December 31, 2025;

  • permanent reinstatement of the provision that allows companies to expense 100 percent of the cost of qualified property acquired and placed in service after January 19, 2025; and

  • modification of several international tax provisions, including those relating to net controlled foreign corporation tested income (formerly global intangible low-taxed income) and foreign-derived deduction eligible income (formerly foreign-derived intangible income) beginning January 1, 2026.

We do not expect that these changes and other provisions of this legislation will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in 2025; however, we continue to evaluate the effects of the OBBB on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in the future.

10. REVENUES AND SEGMENT INFORMATION

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Disaggregation of Revenue

Revenue is presented in the table below under “Segment Information” disaggregated by product because this is the level of disaggregation that management has determined to be beneficial to users of our financial statements.

Contract Balances

Contract balances were as follows (in millions):

September 30, 2025December 31, 2024
Receivables from contracts with customers, included in receivables, net$6,321$5,812
Contract liabilities, included in accrued expenses6282

Remaining Performance Obligations

We have spot and term contracts with customers, the majority of which are spot contracts with no remaining performance obligations. We do not disclose remaining performance obligations for contracts that have terms of one year or less. The transaction price for our remaining term contracts includes a fixed component and variable consideration (i.e., a commodity price), both of which are allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good that forms part of a single performance obligation. The fixed component is not material and the variable consideration is highly uncertain. Therefore, as of September 30, 2025, we have not disclosed the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to our remaining performance obligations.

Segment Information

We have three reportable segments—Refining, Renewable Diesel, and Ethanol. Each segment is a strategic business unit that offers different products and services by employing unique technologies and marketing strategies and whose operations and operating performance are managed and evaluated separately. Operating performance is measured based on the operating income generated by the segment, which includes revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to the management of the respective segment. Intersegment sales are generally derived from transactions made at prevailing market rates. The following is a description of each segment’s business operations.

  • The Refining segment includes the operations of our petroleum refineries, the associated activities to market our refined petroleum products, and the logistics assets that support our refining operations. The principal products manufactured by our refineries and sold by this segment include gasolines and blendstocks, distillates, and other products.

  • The Renewable Diesel segment represents the operations of DGD, a consolidated joint venture as discussed in Note 6, and the associated activities to market low-carbon fuels. The principal products manufactured by DGD and sold by this segment are renewable diesel, renewable naphtha, and neat SAF. This segment sells some renewable diesel and neat SAF to the Refining

VALERO ENERGY CORPORATION

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

segment for blending into petroleum-based diesel and conventional jet fuel, respectively, which is then sold to that segment’s customers as finished product.

  • The Ethanol segment includes the operations of our ethanol plants and the associated activities to market our ethanol and co-products. The principal products manufactured by our ethanol plants are ethanol and distillers grains. This segment sells some ethanol to the Refining segment for blending into gasoline, which is sold to that segment’s customers as a finished gasoline product.

Operations that are not included in any of the reportable segments are included in the corporate category.

Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President. Our CODM uses operating income by segment to allocate resources (including employees, property, and financial or capital resources) for each segment primarily during the annual budget process. On a monthly basis, our CODM considers budget-to-actual variances for operating income by segment when evaluating the operating performance of each segment.

Changes in current assets and current liabilities$157$795

Changes in current assets and current liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were primarily due to the following:

  • The decrease in receivables was due to a decrease in refined petroleum product sales volumes in September 2025 compared to December 2024 and the collection of $246 million for a blender’s tax credit receivable, partially offset by an increase in related prices in September 2025 compared to December 2024;

  • The decrease in inventories was primarily due to lower inventory levels in September 2025 compared to December 2024; and

  • The decrease in accounts payable was due to a decrease in crude oil and other feedstock prices combined with a decrease in related volumes purchased in September 2025 compared to December 2024.

Changes in current assets and current liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily due to the following:

  • The decrease in receivables was due to a decrease in refined petroleum product sales volumes combined with a decrease in related prices in September 2024 compared to December 2023;

  • The decrease in inventories was primarily due to lower inventory levels in September 2024 compared to December 2023; and

A description of our assets and liabilities recognized at fair value along with the valuation methods and inputs we used to develop their fair value measurements are as follows:

  • Commodity derivative contracts consist primarily of exchange-traded futures, which are used to reduce the impact of price volatility on our results of operations and cash flows as discussed in Note 13. These contracts are measured at fair value using a market approach based on quoted prices from the commodity exchange and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

  • Physical purchase contracts represent the fair value of fixed-price corn purchase contracts. The fair values of these purchase contracts are measured using a market approach based on quoted prices from the commodity exchange or an independent pricing service and are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

  • Blending program obligations represent our liability for the purchase of compliance credits needed to satisfy our blending obligations under various government and regulatory blending programs, such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), California Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS), Canada Clean Fuel Regulations, U.K. Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation, and similar programs in other jurisdictions in which we operate (collectively, the Renewable and Low-Carbon Fuel Programs). The blending program

VALERO ENERGY CORPORATION

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

obligations are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured at fair value using a market approach based on quoted prices from an independent pricing service.

  • Investments of certain benefit plans consist of investment securities held by trusts for the purpose of satisfying a portion of our obligations under certain U.S. nonqualified benefit plans. The plan assets categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value using a market approach based on quoted prices from national securities exchanges. The plan assets categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy represent insurance contracts, the fair value of which is provided by the insurer.

  • Investments in AFS debt securities consist primarily of commercial paper and U.S. government treasury bills and have maturities within one year. The securities categorized in Level 1 are measured at fair value using a market approach based on quoted prices from national securities exchanges and the securities categorized in Level 2 are measured at fair value using a market approach based on quoted prices from independent pricing services. The amortized cost basis of the securities approximates fair value. Realized and unrealized gains and losses were de minimis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

  • Foreign currency contracts consist of foreign currency exchange and purchase contracts related to our foreign operations to manage our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in currencies other than the local (functional) currencies of our operations. These contracts are valued based on quoted foreign currency exchange rates and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

There were no assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

As discussed in Note 2, we concluded that the carrying values of the Benicia and Wilmington refineries were impaired as of March 31, 2025. The fair values of the refineries were determined using a market approach based on a comparison of recent property sales and other relevant real estate and market data, which we determined reflects the highest and best use of these assets. These fair values involved significant assumptions and actual results could differ from these estimates.

13. PRICE RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES

General

We are exposed to market risks primarily related to the volatility in the price of commodities, foreign currency exchange rates, and the price of credits needed to comply with the Renewable and Low-Carbon Fuel Programs. We enter into derivative instruments to manage some of these risks, including derivative instruments related to the various commodities we purchase or produce, and foreign currency exchange and purchase contracts, as described below under “Risk Management Activities by Type of Risk.” These derivative instruments are recorded as either assets or liabilities measured at their fair values (see Note 12), as summarized below under “Fair Values of Derivative Instruments.” The effect of these derivative instruments on our income and other comprehensive income (loss) is summarized below under “Effect of Derivative Instruments on Income and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).”

Risk Management Activities by Type of Risk

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility in the price of feedstocks (primarily crude oil, waste and renewable feedstocks, and corn); the products we produce; and natural gas and electricity used in our operations. To reduce the impact of price volatility on our results of operations and cash flows, we use commodity derivative instruments, such as futures and options. Our positions in commodity derivative instruments are monitored and managed on a daily basis by our risk control group to ensure compliance with our stated risk management policy that is periodically reviewed with our Board and/or relevant Board committee.

We primarily use commodity derivative instruments as cash flow hedges and economic hedges. Our objectives for entering into each type of hedge is described below.

*•*Cash flow hedges – The objective of our cash flow hedges is to lock in the price of forecasted purchases and/or product sales at existing market prices that we deem favorable.

*•*Economic hedges – Our objectives for holding economic hedges are to (i) manage price volatility in certain feedstock and product inventories and (ii) lock in the price of forecasted purchases and/or product sales at existing market prices that we deem favorable.

VALERO ENERGY CORPORATION

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Renewable and Low-Carbon Fuel Programs Price Risk

We are exposed to market risk related to the volatility in the price of credits needed to comply with the Renewable and Low-Carbon Fuel Programs. To manage this risk, we enter into contracts to purchase these credits. Some of these contracts are derivative instruments; however, we elect the normal purchase exception and do not record these contracts at their fair values. The Renewable and Low-Carbon Fuel Programs require us to blend a certain volume of renewable and low-carbon fuels into the petroleum-based transportation fuels we produce in, or import into, the respective jurisdiction to be consumed therein based on annual quotas. To the degree we are unable to blend at the required quotas, we must purchase compliance credits (primarily Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs)). The cost of meeting our credit obligations under the Renewable and Low-Carbon Fuel Programs was $431 million and $156 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $1.2 billion and $535 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These amounts are reflected in cost of materials and other.

Foreign Currency Risk

We are exposed to exchange rate fluctuations on transactions related to our foreign operations that are denominated in currencies other than the local (functional) currencies of our operations. To manage our exposure to these exchange rate fluctuations, we often use foreign currency contracts. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes and therefore are classified as economic hedges. As of September 30, 2025, we had foreign currency contracts to purchase $537 million of U.S. dollars. Of these commitments, $467 million matured on or before October 20, 2025 and the remaining $70 million will mature by October 24, 2025.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments

The following table provides information about the fair values of our derivative instruments as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in millions) and the line items in our balance sheets in which the fair values are reflected. See Note 12 for additional information related to the fair values of our derivative instruments.

As indicated in Note 12, we net fair value amounts recognized for multiple similar derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty under master netting arrangements, including cash collateral assets and obligations. The following table, however, is presented on a gross asset and gross liability basis, which results in the reflection of certain assets in liability accounts and certain liabilities in asset accounts:

Market Risk

Our price risk management activities involve the receipt or payment of fixed price commitments into the future. These transactions give rise to market risk, which is the risk that future changes in market conditions may make an instrument less valuable. We closely monitor and manage our exposure to market risk on a daily basis in accordance with policies that are periodically reviewed with our Board and/or relevant Board committee. Market risks are monitored by our risk control group to ensure compliance with our stated risk management policy. We do not require any collateral or other security to support derivative instruments into which we enter. We also do not have any derivative instruments that require us to maintain a minimum investment-grade credit rating.

For cash flow hedges, no component of any derivative instrument’s gain or loss was excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, cash flow hedges primarily related to forecasted sales of renewable diesel. As of September 30, 2025, the estimated deferred after-tax gain that is expected to be reclassified into revenues within the next 12 months was not material. The changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss by component, net of tax, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are described in Note 5.

The following table provides information about the gain (loss) recognized in income on our derivative instruments with respect to our economic hedges and our foreign currency hedges and the line items in our statements of income in which such gains (losses) are reflected (in millions):
