• • World-Class Operations – We are focused on operational and cost reduction targets driving world-class operations across our portfolio.
• We remain focused on a competitive cost structure and plan to enhance Refining segment returns and increase our utilization rates by focusing on low-capital, higher-return projects that increase asset reliability and improve market capture.
• • We continue to focus on Refining performance, targeting an annual clean product yield of greater than 86%, crude oil capacity utilization rates higher than industry average and continuing to improve our competitive cost structure.
• • Disciplined Growth and Returns – A disciplined capital allocation process ensures we make investments that are expected to generate competitive returns.
• new · • Our financial targets through 2027 reflect our plans to organically grow our Midstream and Chemicals businesses and invest in low-capital, high-return projects in Refining.

• • We are targeting reductions of total debt to $17 billion and reductions of our debt-to-capital ratio by the end of 2027.
• Our financial target aims to return greater than 50% of net cash provided by operating activities, excluding working capital, to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.
