Recent news
most recent scored articles · the chip is the article’s score · click to openPhillips 66 (PSX) has set a target to reach $5.50 per barrel in refining costs by 2027, backed by more than 200 efficiency and reliability initiatives. The article body is too short to extract further detail.
Phillips 66 (PSX) and Marathon Petroleum Corporation (MPC) held preliminary merger talks earlier in 2026 for a potential $180 billion combination that collapsed due to antitrust concerns, since merging would have concentrated roughly 25% of U.S. refining capacity in one company. Both companies posted strong Q2 2026 results separately, with MPC reporting net income of $5.1 billion ($17.73 per share) and $8.5 billion in operating cash flow.
An analyst says Marathon Petroleum could benefit if Russian refined product exports stay out of the market long-term, given MPC's US refining footprint and its 65% ownership of pipeline partnership MPLX LP. The analyst sets a year-end 2027 price target of $387, roughly 30% above current levels, with dividends and buybacks cited as supporting returns.
Marathon Petroleum (MPC) reported a record quarter, with profits driven by optimizing its value chain (the steps from crude oil to refined products), strong operational reliability, and high-return projects.
Marathon Petroleum reported quarterly earnings of $17.73 per share, beating the consensus estimate of $14.27 by $3.46. The company posted a net margin of 3.36% and a return on equity of 16.22%.
