Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Capital Investments Attributable to Valero1 $ 1,965 $ 2,633
This summary annual report contains forward-looking statements made by Valero or management intended to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions under federal securities laws. These
statements discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition or state other forward-looking information. You can identify forward-looking statements
by words such as “plan,” “should,” “strive,” “pursue,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “could,” “would,” “track,” “continue,” “poised,” “focused,” “seek,”
“opportunity,” “scheduled,” “may,” “will,” “targeting,” or other similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees Amounts in millions of dollars, except for per share amounts.
of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the control of Valero and are difficult to predict including, but not limited to, the effect,
impact, potential duration or other implications of the COVID-19 pandemic and various events arising therefrom. These statements are often based upon various assumptions, many of which are This is only a financial summary. The company’s full, audited financial statements are
based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including examination of historical operating trends made by the management of Valero. Although Valero believes that the assumptions were reasonable
when made, because assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond its control, Valero cannot give contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2020, which
assurance that it will achieve or accomplish its expectations, beliefs or intentions. When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and made available
statements contained in Valero’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Valero’s annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other reports available on
Valero’s website at www.valero.com. These risks could cause the actual results of Valero to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
to all stockholders. This information is also available at www.valero.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This summary annual report includes certain financial measures that are not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and are considered to be non-GAAP measures.
Valero has defined these non-GAAP measures and believes they are useful to the external users of its financial statements, including industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies. Valero
believes these measures are useful to assess its ongoing financial performance because, when reconciled to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measures, they provide improved comparability
between periods after adjusting for certain items that Valero believes are not indicative of its core operating performance and that may obscure its underlying business results and trends. These
non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measures nor should they be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of Valero’s
results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies because Valero may define
them differently, which diminishes their utility. Valero’s reconciliations of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures are located at the end of this summary annual report.
