Refiner Phillips 66 beats quarterly profit estimates as margins rebound
Phillips 66 (PSX.N) exceeded Wall Street's profit forecasts for the fourth quarter, driven by a significant rebound in U.S. refining margins after a challenging 2024. The company's realized margin more than doubled to $12.48 per barrel, swinging its refining segment to a profit of $542 million. This performance was also supported by high crude capacity utilization and a reduction of $2.0 billion in debt.
