TESORO CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE A BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Tesoro Corporation
(Tesoro) and its subsidiaries have been prepared by management without audit according to the
rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments
that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for the
periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The consolidated balance
sheet at December 31, 2006 has been condensed from the audited consolidated financial statements at
that date. Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S.
GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SECs rules and regulations. However,
management believes that the disclosures presented herein are adequate to make the information not
misleading. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods. We review our
estimates on an ongoing basis, based on currently available information. Changes in facts and
circumstances may result in revised estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates.
The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the
full year.
Share and per share data (except par value) for both periods presented reflect the effect of a
two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend which was distributed on May 29,
2007 (see Note F). The accompanying financial statements include the results of operations of our
Los Angeles refinery and retail stations since acquired on May 10, 2007 and the USA Petroleum
retail stations since acquired on May 1, 2007 (see Note C). We have reclassified certain
previously recorded amounts to conform to the 2007 presentation.
NOTE B EARNINGS PER SHARE
We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share include the effects of
potentially dilutive shares, principally common stock options and unvested restricted stock
outstanding during the period. Shares and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the May
2007 two-for-one stock split. Earnings per share calculations are presented below (in millions
except per share amounts):

NOTE C ACQUISITIONS
Los Angeles Assets
On May 10, 2007 we acquired a 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) refinery and a 42,000 bpd refined
products terminal located south of Los Angeles, California along with a network of 278
Shell-branded retail stations (128 are company-operated) located throughout Southern California
(collectively, the Los Angeles Assets) from Shell Oil Products US (Shell). We will continue to
operate the retail stations using the Shell® brand under a long-term agreement. The purchase price
for the Los Angeles Assets was $1.82 billion (which includes $256 million for petroleum inventories
and direct costs of $13 million). The Los Angeles Assets complement our operations on the Pacific
Rim and enable us to realize synergies by optimizing the output of our refineries to maximize the
production of clean fuel products for the California market as well as through our crude oil
purchasing and unique shipping logistics. Shell, subject to certain limitations, retained certain
obligations, responsibilities, liabilities, costs and expenses, including environmental matters
arising out of the pre-closing operations of the Los Angeles Assets. We assumed certain
obligations, responsibilities, liabilities, costs and expenses arising out of or incurred in
connection with decrees, orders and settlements Shell entered into with governmental and
non-governmental entities prior to closing.
The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their
respective fair market values at the date of acquisition. The accompanying financial statements
reflect the preliminary purchase price allocation, pending completion of independent appraisals and
other evaluations. Acquired intangibles of $146 million include primarily air emission credits,
software licenses, refinery permits and plans and dealer supply agreements. The acquired
intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 28
years or a weighted-average life of 22 years. Our assumed liabilities include employee benefits of
$9 million primarily associated with granted prior service credits and environmental obligations of
$3 million primarily related to assessing environmental conditions and assuming monitoring
requirements. The preliminary purchase price allocation, including direct costs incurred in the
Los Angeles Assets acquisition, is as follows (in millions):

Our unaudited pro forma financial information for the three months and six months ended June 30,
2007 and 2006 gives effect to the acquisition of the Los Angeles Assets and the related financings,
including (i) the issuance of $500 million 6 1/2% senior notes due 2017, and (ii) $500 million in
borrowings under our credit agreement (see Note E), as if each had occurred at the beginning of the
periods presented. Included in the pro forma results below are allocations of corporate overhead
reflected in the historical financial statements of the Los Angeles Assets totaling $5 million and
$13 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $21 million and
$24 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

USA Petroleum Retail Stations
On May 1, 2007, we acquired 138 retail stations located primarily in California from USA Petroleum
(the USA Petroleum Assets). The purchase price of the assets and the USA® brand was paid in cash
totaling $285 million (including inventories of $15 million and direct costs of $3 million). We
assumed the obligations under USA Petroleums leases, contracts, permits or other agreements
arising after the closing date. USA Petroleum has retained certain pre-closing liabilities,
including environmental matters. This acquisition provides us with retail stations near our Golden
Eagle and Los Angeles refineries that will allow us to optimize production, invest in refinery
improvements and deliver more clean products into the California market.
The purchase price was allocated based upon fair market values at the date of acquisition. The
accompanying financial statements reflect the preliminary purchase price allocation, pending
completion of independent appraisals and other evaluations. Acquired intangibles of $37 million
include primarily the USA® brand name, which will be amortized over 20 years. The preliminary
purchase price allocation, including direct costs incurred in the acquisition of the USA sites, is
as follows (in millions):

NOTE D OPERATING SEGMENTS
We are an independent refiner and marketer of petroleum products and derive revenues from two
operating segments, refining and retail. We evaluate the performance of our segments and allocate
resources based primarily on segment operating income. Segment operating income includes those
revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to management of the respective segment.
Intersegment sales from refining to retail are made at prevailing market rates. Income taxes,
interest and financing costs, interest income and other, and corporate depreciation and corporate
general and administrative expenses are excluded from segment operating income. Identifiable
assets are those assets utilized by the segment. Corporate assets are principally cash and other
assets that are not associated with a specific operating segment. Segment information is as

Credit Agreement
On May 11, 2007, we amended and restated our revolving credit agreement to increase the revolvers
total available capacity to $1.75 billion from $750 million and borrowed $500 million under the
revolving credit facility to partially fund the acquisition of the Los Angeles Assets. The
five-year amended credit agreement provides for borrowings (including letters of credit) up to the
lesser of the agreements total capacity or the amount of a periodically adjusted borrowing base
($2.3 billion as of June 30, 2007), consisting of Tesoros eligible cash and cash equivalents,
receivables and petroleum inventories, as defined. As of June 30, 2007, we had $250 million in
borrowings and $227 million in letters of credit outstanding under the amended credit agreement,
resulting in total unused credit availability of $1.3 billion or 74% of the eligible borrowing
base. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at either a base rate (8.25% at
June 30, 2007) or a eurodollar rate (5.32% at June 30, 2007) plus an applicable margin. The
applicable margin at June 30, 2007 was 1.00% in the case of the eurodollar rate, but varies based
upon our credit facility availability and credit ratings. Letters of credit outstanding under the
revolving credit facility incur fees at an annual rate tied to the eurodollar rate applicable
margin (1.00% at June 30, 2007). We also incur commitment fees for the unused portion of the
revolving credit facility at an annual rate of 0.25% as of June 30, 2007.
Letters of Credit Agreement
We also have a separate letters of credit agreement that provides up to $250 million in letters of
credit for the purchase of foreign crude oil. The agreement is secured by the crude oil
inventories supported by letters of credit issued under the agreement and will remain in effect
until terminated by either party. Letters of credit outstanding under this agreement incur fees
at an annual rate of 1.25% to 1.38%. As of June 30, 2007, we had $191 million in letters of
credit
10
TESORO CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
outstanding under this agreement, resulting in total unused credit availability of $59 million, or
24% of total capacity under this credit agreement.
6 1/2% Senior Notes Due 2017
On May 29, 2007, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6 1/2% senior notes due June 1,
2017 through a private offering. The proceeds from the notes offering, together with cash on hand,
were used to repay borrowings under our 364-day term loan. The notes have a ten-year maturity with
no sinking fund requirements and are subject to optional redemption by Tesoro beginning June 1,
2012 at premiums of 3.25% through May 31, 2013; 2.17% from June 1, 2013 through May 31, 2014; 1.08%
from June 1, 2014 through May 31, 2015; and at par thereafter. We have the right to redeem up to
35% of the aggregate principal amount at a redemption price of 106.5% with proceeds from certain
equity issuances through June 1, 2010. The indenture for the notes contains covenants and
restrictions that are customary for notes of this nature. Substantially all of these covenants
will terminate before the notes mature if one of two specified ratings agencies assigns the notes
an investment grade rating and no events of default exist under the indenture. The terminated
covenants will not be restored even if the credit rating assigned to the notes subsequently falls
below investment grade. The notes are unsecured and are guaranteed by substantially all of our
domestic subsidiaries.
364-Day Term Loan
On May 11, 2007 we entered into a $700 million 364-day term loan, which was used to partially fund
the acquisition of the Los Angeles Assets. On May 29, 2007, we repaid this loan, using the net
proceeds from the 6 1/2% senior notes offering and cash on hand. The 364-day term loan was
terminated upon repayment.
9 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2012
On April 9, 2007, we voluntarily prepaid the remaining $14 million outstanding principal balance of
our 9 5/8% senior subordinated notes at a redemption price of 104.8%.
Capitalized Interest
We capitalize interest as part of the cost of major projects during extended construction periods.
Capitalized interest, which is a reduction to interest and financing costs in the condensed
statements of consolidated operations, totaled $7 million and $2 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $12 million and $4 million for the six months ended June
30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
NOTE F STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
Stock Split
On May 1, 2007, our Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a
stock dividend, which was distributed on May 29, 2007 to shareholders of record at the close of
business on May 14, 2007. All references to the number of shares of common stock and per share
amounts (other than par value) have been adjusted to reflect the split for all periods presented.
Cash Dividends
On August 3, 2007, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of
$0.10 per share, payable on September 17, 2007 to shareholders of
record on September 3,
2007. In March 2007 and June 2007, we paid a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $0.05 per
share (reflects May 2007 two-for-one stock split) and $0.10 per share, respectively.

NOTE H PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
Tesoro sponsors four defined benefit pension plans, including a funded employee retirement plan, an
unfunded executive security plan, an unfunded non-employee director retirement plan and an unfunded
restoration retirement plan. Although our funded employee retirement plan fully meets all of the
funding requirements under applicable laws and regulations, during the six months ended June 30,
2007 we voluntarily contributed $6 million to improve the funded status of the plan. The
components of pension benefit expense included in the condensed statements of consolidated
operations were (in millions):

The income tax benefit realized from tax deductions associated with option exercises totaled $12
million and $15 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Stock Options
We amortize the estimated fair value of our stock options granted over the vesting period using the
straight-line method. The fair value of each option was estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we granted
1,537,600 options with a weighted-average exercise price of $42.91. The estimated weighted-average
grant-date fair value per share of options granted was $20.53. These options will become
exercisable after one year in 33% annual increments and expire ten years from the date of grant.
Total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options totaled $36 million as of
June 30, 2007, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. A
summary of our outstanding and exercisable options as of June 30, 2007 is presented below:

Restricted Stock
We amortize the estimated fair value of our restricted stock granted over the vesting period using
the straight-line method. The fair value of each restricted share on the date of grant is equal to
its fair market price. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we issued 108,200 shares of
restricted stock with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $41.58. These restricted shares
vest in annual increments ratably over three years, assuming continued employment at the vesting
dates. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock totaled $9
million as of June 30, 2007, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of
1.9 years. As of June 30, 2007 we had 1,026,916 shares of restricted stock outstanding at a
weighted-average grant-date fair value of $15.10.
Stock Appreciation Rights
A stock appreciation right (SAR) entitles an employee to receive cash in an amount equal to the
excess of the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date of exercise over the grant
price of the SAR. The fair value of each SAR is estimated at the end of each reporting period
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we
granted 1,206,300 SARs at 100% of the fair value of Tesoros common stock with a weighted-average
grant price of $42.53 per SAR. The estimated weighted-average grant-date fair value was $18.12

per SAR. The SARs granted in 2007 vest ratably over three years following the date of grant and
expire seven years from the grant date. At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the liability
associated with our SARs recorded in accrued liabilities totaled $14 million and $3 million,
respectively.
Phantom Stock Options
Tesoros chief executive officer holds phantom stock options, which were granted in 1997 with a
term of ten years at 100% of the fair value of Tesoros common stock on the grant date, or $8.4922
per share. Upon exercise, our chief executive officer would be entitled to receive, in cash, the
difference between the fair value of the common stock on the date of grant and the fair market
value of common stock on the date of exercise. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, our
chief executive officer exercised 116,000 phantom stock options. At June 30, 2007 our chief
executive officer held 234,000 phantom stock options, all of which are exercisable. The liability
associated with the phantom stock options recorded in accrued liabilities totaled $11 million and
$9 million as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
NOTE J COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are a party to various litigation and contingent loss situations, including environmental and
income tax matters, arising in the ordinary course of business. Where required, we have made
accruals in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, in order to provide for
these matters. We cannot predict the ultimate effects of these matters with certainty, and we have
made related accruals based on our best estimates, subject to future developments. We believe that
the outcome of these matters will not result in a material adverse effect on our liquidity and
consolidated financial position, although the resolution of certain of these matters could have a
material adverse impact on interim or annual results of operations.
Tesoro is subject to audits by federal, state and local taxing authorities in the normal course of
business. It is possible that tax audits could result in claims against Tesoro in excess of
recorded liabilities. We believe, however, that when these matters are resolved, they will not
materially affect Tesoros consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Tesoro is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These
laws, which change frequently, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may
require us to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum
or chemical substances at various sites, install additional controls, or make other modifications
or changes in use for certain emission sources.
Conditions may develop that cause increases or decreases in future expenditures for our various
sites, including, but not limited to, our refineries, tank farms, retail stations (operating and
closed locations) and refined products terminals, and for compliance with the Clean Air Act and
other federal, state and local requirements. We cannot currently determine the amounts of such
future expenditures.
Environmental Liabilities
We are currently involved in remedial responses and have incurred and expect to continue to incur
cleanup expenditures associated with environmental matters at a number of sites, including certain
of our previously owned properties. At June 30, 2007, our accruals for environmental expenses
totaled $83 million. Our accruals for environmental expenses include retained liabilities for
previously owned or operated properties, refining, pipeline and terminal operations and retail
stations. We believe these accruals are adequate, based on currently available information,
including the participation of other parties or former owners in remediation action.

On March 2, 2007, we settled our dispute with Tosco Corporation (Tosco) concerning soil and
groundwater conditions at the Golden Eagle refinery. We received $58.5 million from ConocoPhillips
as successor in interest to Tosco and Phillips Petroleum (Phillips), both former owners and
operators of the refinery. As previously reported, in connection with our acquisition of the
refinery from Ultramar, Inc. in May 2002, Ultramar assigned certain of its rights and obligations
that Ultramar had acquired from Tosco in August of 2000. Tosco assumed responsibility and
contractually indemnified us for up to $50 million for certain environmental liabilities arising
from operations at the refinery prior to August of 2000 (Pre-Acquisition Operations). In
November 2003, we filed suit in Contra Costa County Superior Court against Tosco alleging that
Tosco misrepresented, concealed and failed to disclose certain additional environmental conditions
at the refinery related to the Pre-Acquisition Operations. The Court granted Toscos motion to
compel arbitration of our claims for these certain additional environmental conditions. We
initiated arbitration proceedings against Tosco in December 2003 concerning the Pre-Acquisition
Operations and Tosco filed counterclaims against us. As part of the settlement all claims and
counterclaims in the arbitration and the court action pending arbitration have been dismissed. In
exchange for the settlement payment we released and agreed to indemnify ConocoPhillips from both
Toscos obligations concerning all environmental conditions at the refinery and Phillips
liabilities for environmental conditions as a former owner of the refinery. Based on existing
information, it is possible that the soil and groundwater environmental liabilities arising from
Pre-Acquisition Operations could exceed the $58.5 million settlement amount. We expect to be
reimbursed for excess liabilities under certain environmental insurance policies that provide $140
million of coverage in excess of the settlement proceeds attributable to Toscos contractual
indemnity. We have included the $58.5 million in the environmental accruals referenced above.
We are continuing to investigate environmental conditions at certain active wastewater treatment
units at our Golden Eagle refinery. This investigation is driven by an order from the San Francisco
Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board that names us as well as two previous owners of the Golden
Eagle refinery. A reserve for this matter is included in the environmental accruals referenced
above.
In March 2007, we received an offer from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (the
District) to settle 77 Notices of Violation (NOVs) for $4 million. The NOVs allege violations
of air quality at our Golden Eagle refinery. We are currently negotiating a settlement of this
matter with the District. A reserve for this matter is included in the environmental accruals
referenced above.
In October 2005, we received an NOV from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The EPA alleges certain modifications made to the fluid catalytic cracking unit at our Washington
refinery prior to our acquisition of the refinery were made in violation of the Clean Air Act. We
have investigated the allegations and believe the ultimate resolution of the NOV will not have a
material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. A reserve for our
response to the NOV is included in the environmental accruals referenced above.
Other Environmental Matters
In the ordinary course of business, we become party to or otherwise involved in lawsuits,
administrative proceedings and governmental investigations, including environmental, regulatory and
other matters. Large and sometimes unspecified damages or penalties may be sought from us in some
matters for which the likelihood of loss may be reasonably possible but the amount of loss is not
currently estimable, and some matters may require years for us to resolve. As a result, we have
not established reserves for these matters. On the basis of existing information, we believe that
the resolution of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse
effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, we cannot provide assurance
that an adverse resolution of one or more of the matters described below during a future reporting
period will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations
in future periods.

We are a defendant, along with other manufacturing, supply and marketing defendants, in ten pending
cases alleging MTBE contamination in groundwater. The defendants are being sued for having
manufactured MTBE and having manufactured, supplied and distributed gasoline containing MTBE. The
plaintiffs, all in California, are generally water providers, governmental authorities and private
well owners alleging, in part, the defendants are liable for manufacturing or distributing a
defective product. The suits generally seek individual, unquantified compensatory and punitive
damages and attorneys fees, but we cannot estimate the amount or the likelihood of the ultimate
resolution of these matters at this time, and accordingly have not established a reserve for these
cases. We believe we have defenses to these claims and intend to vigorously defend the lawsuits.
Environmental Capital Expenditures
EPA regulations related to the Clean Air Act require reductions in the sulfur content in gasoline.
Our Golden Eagle, Los Angeles, Washington, Hawaii, Alaska and North Dakota refineries will not
require additional capital spending to meet the low sulfur gasoline standards. We are currently
developing plans to install certain desulfurization equipment at the Utah refinery to satisfy the
requirements of the regulations.
EPA regulations related to the Clean Air Act also require reductions in the sulfur content in
diesel fuel manufactured for on-road consumption. In general, the new on-road diesel fuel
standards became effective on June 1, 2006. In May 2004, the EPA issued a rule regarding the
sulfur content of non-road diesel fuel. The requirements to reduce non-road diesel sulfur content
will become effective in phases between 2007 and 2012. In May 2007, we completed the diesel
desulfurizer unit at our Alaska refinery, enabling the refinery to manufacture additional ultra-low
sulfur diesel. We spent $25 million on this project during the first six months of 2007. We also
have budgeted $10 million to complete an expansion of the diesel desulfurizer at our Utah refinery.
This project, which is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2008, will allow the
refinerys full diesel fuel production to meet the current requirements under the standards. We
are currently evaluating alternative projects that will satisfy the future requirements under
existing regulations at our North Dakota, Utah and Hawaii refineries. Our Golden Eagle, Los
Angeles, Washington and Alaska refineries will not require additional capital spending to meet the
new diesel fuel standards.
In February 2007, the EPA issued regulations for the reduction of benzene in gasoline. We are
still evaluating the impact of this standard, however, based on our preliminary estimates we expect
to spend approximately $200 million between 2008 to 2011 to meet the new regulations at five of our
refineries. Our Golden Eagle and Los Angeles refineries will not require capital spending to meet
the new benzene reduction standards.
In connection with our 2001 acquisition of our North Dakota and Utah refineries, Tesoro assumed the
sellers obligations and liabilities under a consent decree among the United States, BP Exploration
and Oil Co. (BP), Amoco Oil Company and Atlantic Richfield Company. BP entered into this consent
decree for both the North Dakota and Utah refineries for various alleged violations. As the owner
of these refineries, Tesoro is required to address issues to reduce air emissions. We have
budgeted $18 million through 2009 to comply with this consent decree, $4 million of which was spent
in the first six months of 2007. We also agreed to indemnify the sellers for all losses of any
kind incurred in connection with the consent decree.

TESORO CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In connection with the 2002 acquisition of our Golden Eagle refinery, subject to certain
conditions, we assumed the sellers obligations pursuant to settlement efforts with the EPA
concerning the Section 114 refinery enforcement initiative under the Clean Air Act, except for any
potential monetary penalties, which the seller retains. In November 2005, the Consent Decree was
entered by the District Court for the Western District of Texas in which we agreed to undertake
projects at our Golden Eagle refinery to reduce air emissions. We have budgeted capital
improvements of approximately $25 million through 2010 to satisfy the requirements of the Consent
Decree, $1 million of which was spent during the first six months of 2007.
We have
developed a plan to eliminate the use of any atmospheric blowdown towers at our refineries. We
believe that this plan will provide for safer operating conditions for our employees and will
address environmental regulatory issues related to monitoring potential air emissions from
components connected to the blowdown towers. We have budgeted $91 million through 2010 to
eliminate the use of atmospheric blowdown towers, $13 million of which was spent during the first
six months of 2007.
During the fourth quarter of 2005, we received approval by the Hearing Board for the Bay Area Air
Quality Management District to modify our existing fluid coker unit to a delayed coker at our
Golden Eagle refinery which is designed to lower emissions while also enhancing the refinerys
capabilities in terms of reliability, lengthening turnaround cycles and reducing operating costs.
We negotiated the terms and conditions of the Second Conditional Abatement Order with the District
in response to the January 2005 mechanical failure of the fluid coker boiler at the Golden Eagle
refinery. The total capital budget for this project is $503 million, which includes remaining
budgeted spending of $223 million through 2008. The project is currently scheduled to be
substantially completed during the first quarter of 2008, with spending through the first half of
2008. We have spent $280 million from inception of the project, of which $153 million was spent in
the first six months of 2007.
We will spend additional capital at the Golden Eagle refinery for reconfiguring and replacing
above-ground storage tank systems and upgrading piping within the refinery. We have budgeted
approximately $110 million from 2007 through 2011, $9 million of which was spent during the first
six months of 2007. Our capital budget also includes spending of $29 million through 2010 to
upgrade a marine oil terminal at the Golden Eagle refinery to meet engineering and maintenance
standards issued by the State of California in February 2006.
The Los Angeles Assets are subject to extensive environmental requirements. We anticipate spending
approximately $375 million to $400 million between 2007 and 2011 for various environmental projects
at the refinery primarily to lower air emissions as well as improve fuel efficiency at the
refinery. These estimates will be further reviewed and analyzed after we acquire additional
information through the operation of the assets.
Contractual Commitments
In connection with the Los Angeles Assets and USA Petroleum Assets acquisitions, we assumed various
contractual commitments related to operating leases and supplies of crude oil and hydrogen. Our
assumed operating lease commitments include primarily retail station sites associated with the land
and/or buildings and improvements with remaining terms up to 46 years and generally with renewal
options. For the remainder of 2007 we expect to pay approximately $3 million under these lease
agreements and for 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 we expect to pay $7 million, $6 million, $5 million
and $4 million, respectively, under these agreements. Beyond 2011, lease payments associated with
these agreements are estimated to total $10 million. We also assumed a take-or-pay arrangement to
purchase hydrogen associated with the operation of the refinery. The agreement requires minimum
payments of approximately $24 million per year through 2012.
Our new crude supply arrangements associated with the Los Angeles refinery have initial terms up to
one year. Prices under these term agreements generally fluctuate with market responsive pricing
provisions. To estimate our new commitments under these contracts, we used actual market prices as
of June 30, 2007 ranging from $51 per barrel to $73 per barrel. For the remainder of 2007 we expect
to pay approximately $705 million under these new commitments and for 2008 we expect to pay
approximately $155 million under these agreements.

See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding our estimated contractual
long-term commitments.
Claims Against Third-Parties
In 1996, Tesoro Alaska Company filed a protest of the intrastate rates charged for the
transportation of its crude oil through the Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS). Our protest
asserted that the TAPS intrastate rates were excessive and should be reduced. The Regulatory
Commission of Alaska (RCA) considered our protest of the intrastate rates for the years 1997
through 2000. The RCA set just and reasonable final rates for the years 1997 through 2000 in Order
151, and held that we are entitled to receive approximately $52 million in refunds, including
interest through the expected conclusion of appeals in December 2007. The RCAs ruling is
currently on appeal to the Alaska Supreme Court, and we cannot give any assurances of when or
whether we will prevail in the appeal.
In 2002, the RCA rejected the TAPS Carriers proposed intrastate rate increases for 2001-2003 and
maintained the permanent rate of $1.96 to the Valdez Marine Terminal. That ruling is currently on
appeal to the Alaska Superior Court. The rate decrease has been in effect since June 2003. The
TAPS Carriers subsequently attempted to increase their intrastate rates for 2004, 2005, 2006 and
2007 without providing the supporting information required by the RCAs regulations and in a manner
inconsistent with the RCAs prior decision in Order 151. These filings were rejected by the RCA.
The rejection of these filings is currently on appeal to the Alaska Superior Court where the
decision is being held in abeyance pending the decision in the appeals of the rates for 1997-2003.
If the RCAs decisions are upheld on appeal, we could be entitled to refunds resulting from our
shipments from January 2001 through mid-June 2003. If the RCAs decisions are not upheld on
appeal, we could potentially have to pay the difference between the TAPS Carriers filed rates from
mid-June 2003 through June 30, 2007 (averaging approximately $3.87 per barrel) and the RCAs
approved rate for this period ($1.96 per barrel) plus interest for the approximately 42 million
barrels we have transported through TAPS in intrastate commerce during this period. We cannot give
any assurances of when or whether we will prevail in these appeals. We also believe that, should
we not prevail on appeal, the amount of additional shipping charges cannot reasonably be estimated
since it is not possible to estimate the permanent rate which the RCA could set, and the appellate
courts approve, for each year. In addition, depending upon the level of such rates, there is a
reasonable possibility that any refunds for the period January 2001 through mid-July 2003 could
offset some or all of any additional payments due for the period mid-June 2003 through June 30,
2007.
In January of 2005, Tesoro Alaska Company intervened in a protest before the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC), of the TAPS Carriers interstate rates for 2005 and 2006. If
Tesoro Alaska Company prevails and lower rates are set, we could be entitled to refunds resulting
from our interstate shipments for 2005 and 2006. We cannot give any assurances of when or whether
we will prevail in this proceeding. In July 2005, the TAPS Carriers filed a proceeding at the FERC
seeking to have the FERC assume jurisdiction under Section 13(4) of the Interstate Commerce Act and
set future rates for intrastate transportation on TAPS. We filed a protest in that proceeding,
which has been consolidated with the other FERC proceeding seeking to set just and reasonable
interstate rates on TAPS for 2005 and 2006. On May 17, 2007, the presiding judge in this
consolidated FERC proceeding lowered the interstate rates and refused to revise the current
intrastate rates. The TAPS Carriers have requested that the FERC reverse the presiding judge. We
cannot give assurances of when or whether we will prevail in this proceeding. If the TAPS carriers
should prevail, then the rates charged for all shipments of Alaska North Slope crude oil on TAPS
could be revised by the FERC, but any FERC changes to rates for intrastate transportation of crude
oil supplies for our Alaska refinery should be prospective only and should not affect prior
intrastate rates, refunds or additional payments.

NOTE K NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
FIN No. 48
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48), which prescribes a recognition threshold
and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position
taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In addition, FIN 48 provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements for
uncertain tax positions. We adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007 and recognized an
increase of approximately $1 million in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, the cumulative
effect of which was accounted for as an adjustment to decrease retained earnings. As of the date
of adoption and after the impact of recognizing the increase in the liability noted above, our
unrecognized tax benefits totaled $44 million. In addition, at January 1, 2007, we had accrued
approximately $19 million for interest and penalties. We recognize accrued interest in interest
and financing costs, and penalties in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed
statements of consolidated operations. Of the total unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, 2007,
$18 million (net of the tax benefit on state issues and interest) represents the amount that, if
recognized, would lower the effective income tax rate in any future periods. We are subject to
U.S. federal income tax, and income tax in multiple state jurisdictions and a few foreign
jurisdictions. The federal tax years 1997 to 2006 remain open to audit, and in general the state
tax years open to audit range from 1994 to 2006. Within the next twelve months we expect to settle
or otherwise conclude all federal income tax assessments for years through 2003, and as such it is
possible that the liability for uncertain tax positions would decrease by approximately $21
million. Our liability for unrecognized tax benefits including accrued interest and penalties totaled
$68 million as of June 30, 2007.
SFAS No. 157
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other
accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any
new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective beginning January 1,
2008. We are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our financial position and
results of operations.
SFAS No. 159
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities, which permits entities to measure many financial instruments and certain
other items at fair value at specified election dates that are not currently required to be
measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has
been elected should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The provisions of
SFAS No. 159 are effective for Tesoro as of January 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the
impact this standard will have on our financial position and results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Those statements in this section that are not historical in nature should be deemed forward-looking
statements that are inherently uncertain. See Forward-Looking
Statements on page 36 for a
discussion of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected
in these statements. This section should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2006.
BUSINESS STRATEGY AND OVERVIEW
Our strategy is to create a value-added refining and marketing business that has (i)
economies of scale, (ii) a low-cost structure, (iii) effective management information systems and
(iv) outstanding employees focused on achieving operational excellence in a global market in order
to provide stockholders with competitive returns in any economic environment.
Our goals are focused on: (i) operating our facilities in a safe, reliable, and environmentally
responsible way; (ii) improving cash flow by achieving greater operational and administrative
efficiencies; and (iii) using excess cash flows from operations in a balanced way to create further
shareholder value.
During 2007, we have used cash flows from operations to partially fund acquisitions, fund
certain strategic projects, reduce debt on our revolving credit facility and increase our cash
dividend as described below. Prior to completing the acquisitions, we set a year-end goal to
reduce our debt to capitalization ratio to or below 40%. As of June 30, 2007 our debt to
capitalization ratio was 37%. We achieved our goal by paying down $250 million on our revolving
credit facility and achieving record second quarter earnings. Since June 2007 we repaid the
remaining balance on our revolving credit facility. For the remainder of 2007, we plan to
continue to use cash flows from operations to fund our capital expenditure program and pay
dividends.
Acquisitions
Los Angeles Assets
On May 10, 2007 we acquired a 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) refinery and a 42,000 bpd refined
products terminal located south of Los Angeles, California along with a network of 278
Shell-branded retail stations (128 are company-operated) located throughout Southern California
(collectively, the Los Angeles Assets) from Shell Oil Products US (Shell). We will continue to
operate the retail stations using the Shell® brand under a long-term agreement. The purchase price
for the Los Angeles Assets was $1.82 billion (which includes $256 million for petroleum inventories
and direct costs of $13 million). The purchase price of the Los Angeles Assets was paid for with
$1.0 billion of debt and the remainder with cash on hand. For further information on our financing
of the acquisition, see Capital Resources and Liquidity Capitalization herein.
We expect to realize annual recurring synergies of approximately $100 million in connection with
our acquisitions by optimizing the output of our refineries to maximize the production of clean
fuels for the California market as well as through crude oil purchasing and our shipping logistics.
In addition, we expect to increase reliability, throughput levels and the production of clean
products at the refinery by spending approximately $325 million to $350 million between 2007 and
2011. We also plan to lower air emissions as well as improve fuel efficiency at the refinery by
spending an additional $375 million to $400 million between 2007 and 2011. Annual refinery
turnaround and other maintenance spending is expected to approximate $80 million. These cost
estimates will be further reviewed and analyzed after we acquire additional information through
operation of the assets.
USA Petroleum Retail Stations
On May 1, 2007, we acquired 138 retail stations located primarily in California from USA Petroleum
(the USA Petroleum Assets). The purchase price of the assets and the USA® brand was paid in cash
totaling $285 million (including inventories of $15 million and direct costs of $3 million). This
acquisition provides us with retail stations
20
near our Golden Eagle and Los Angeles refineries that will allow us to optimize production, invest
in refinery improvements and deliver more clean products into the California market.
Strategic Capital Projects
In May 2007, we revised our 2007 capital spending program from $650 million to $900 million
(including refinery turnarounds and other maintenance costs of approximately $125 million). The
increase includes $125 million for the capital and turnaround spending associated with the recently
acquired Los Angeles refinery. Another $100 million reflects accelerating 2008 planned spending on
the Golden Eagle coker modification project into 2007. The total budget for the coker modification
project remains unchanged. The remainder of the increased spending relates to cost increases in
the 2007 first quarter for turnarounds and other projects. We plan to continue to focus on capital
projects that improve safety and reliability, enhance our crude oil flexibility, improve
clean product yields and increase energy efficiency.
Golden Eagle Coker Modification Project
The coker modification project at our Golden Eagle refinery is currently scheduled to be
substantially completed during the first quarter of 2008. The modification of our existing fluid
coker unit to a delayed coker unit will enable us to comply with the terms of an abatement order to
lower air emissions while also enhancing the refinerys capabilities in terms of reliability,
lengthening turnaround cycles and reducing operating costs. By extending the typical coker
turnaround cycle from 2.5 years to 5 years, we will effectively increase clean fuels production and
significantly reduce the duration and costs of coker turnarounds.
Other Strategic Capital Projects
In May 2007, we completed a 10,000 bpd diesel desulfurizer unit at our Alaska refinery, enabling us
to manufacture ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) and become the sole producer of ULSD in Alaska. In
June 2007, we completed the wharf expansion project at our Golden Eagle refinery which will improve
our crude oil flexibility by enabling us to supply all of the refinerys crude oil requirements by
water.
During 2007, we are scheduled to complete the process control modernization project at our Golden
Eagle refinery and sulfur handling projects at our Washington refinery. The control modernization
project will convert our older refinery control technologies at the Golden Eagle refinery to a
modern digital system. The sulfur handling projects will allow us to process a greater percentage
of sour crude oils at our Washington refinery.
Stock Split
On May 1, 2007, our Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split to be effected in the
form of a stock dividend, which was distributed on May 29, 2007 to shareholders of record at the
close of business on May 14, 2007.
Cash Dividends
On May 1, 2007 our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $0.10
per share, effectively doubling the dividend after the two-for-one stock split. On August 3, 2007,
our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $0.10 per share,
payable on September 17, 2007 to shareholders of record on
September 3, 2007. In March 2007
and June 2007, we paid a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $0.05 per share (reflects May
2007 two-for-one stock split) and $0.10 per share, respectively.
21
Industry Overview and Outlook
The global fundamentals of the refining industry have remained strong in 2007. Continued strong
demand in developing areas such as India and China and global political concerns have supported
high prices for crude oil and refined products. In the U.S., refining margins during the first six
months of 2007 remained above historical levels, in part due to the following:
|
|
|
continued high gasoline and diesel demand coupled with limited production capacity; |
|
|
|
|
lower refinery utilization due to heavy industry turnaround activity and unplanned outages; |
|
|
|
|
low product inventories; |
|
|
|
|
a continuing reliance on gasoline imports; and |
|
|
|
|
new lower sulfur standards for non-road diesel, which went into effect on June 1, 2007. |
Based on
market conditions in July and early August, the 2007 third quarter
will be more challenging than the 2007 second quarter. However,
looking forward we continue to believe that the long-term margin environment will exceed the
five-year average, driven mostly by slower supply growth relative to rising global demand.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2007 COMPARED WITH THREE AND SIX MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Summary
Our net earnings were $443 million ($3.17 per diluted share) for the three months ended June 30,
2007 (2007 Quarter), compared with net earnings of $326 million ($2.33 per diluted share) for the
three months ended June 30, 2006 (2006 Quarter). For the year-to-date periods, our net earnings
were $559 million ($4.02 per diluted share) for the six months ended June 30, 2007 (2007 Period),
compared with net earnings of $369 million ($2.63 per diluted share) for the six months ended June
30, 2006 (2006 Period). The increase in net earnings during the 2007 Quarter and 2007 Period was
primarily due to higher gross refining margins and increased refining throughput, partially offset
by higher corporate, general and administrative expenses and operating expenses. A discussion
and analysis of the factors contributing to our results of operations is presented below. The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, together with the following information,
are intended to provide investors with a reasonable basis for assessing our historical operations,
but should not serve as the only criteria for predicting our future performance. Our results for
the 2007 Quarter and 2007 Period include the operations of the Los Angeles and USA Petroleum
acquired assets since their acquisition dates in May 2007.

Management uses gross refining margin per barrel to evaluate performance, allocate resources
and compare profitability to other companies in the industry. Gross refining margin per
barrel is calculated by dividing gross refining margin before inventory changes by total
refining throughput and may not be calculated similarly by other companies. Management uses
manufacturing costs per barrel to evaluate the efficiency of refinery operations and allocate
resources. Manufacturing costs per barrel is calculated by dividing manufacturing costs by
total refining throughput and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by
other companies. Investors and analysts use these financial measures to help analyze and
compare companies in the industry on the basis of operating performance. These financial
measures should not be considered as alternatives to segment operating income, revenues,
costs of sales and operating expenses or any other measure of financial performance presented
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. |
|
(f) |
|
Gross refining margin is calculated as revenues less costs of feedstocks, purchased refined
products, transportation and distribution. Gross refining margin approximates total refining
segment throughput times gross refining margin per barrel, adjusted for changes in refined
product inventory due to selling a volume and mix of product that is different than actual
volumes manufactured. The adjustment for changes in refined product inventory resulted in a
decrease in gross refining margin of $43 million and $27 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $14 million and $13 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Gross refining margin also includes the effect
of intersegment sales to the retail segment at prices which approximate market. |
|
(g) |
|
Includes manufacturing depreciation and amortization per throughput barrel of approximately
$1.34 and $1.01 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $1.36
and $1.06 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. |
|
(h) |
|
Sources of total product sales included refined products manufactured at the refineries and
refined products purchased from third parties. Total refined product sales margin includes
margins on sales of manufactured and purchased refined products and the effects of inventory
changes. |

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2006. Operating
income from our refining segment was $791 million in the 2007 Quarter compared to $593 million for
the 2006 Quarter. The $198 million increase in our operating income was primarily due to
increased gross refining margins and higher throughput, partly offset by higher operating
expenses. Total gross refining margins increased 22% to $21.76 per barrel in the 2007 Quarter
compared to $17.88 per barrel in the 2006 Quarter reflecting higher industry refining margins.
Industry margins on a national basis increased during the 2007 Quarter compared to the 2006
Quarter primarily due to continued strong demand for refined products, lower utilization rates,
low product inventories and the introduction of new lower sulfur requirements for non-road diesel
beginning June 1, 2007.
On an aggregate basis, total gross refining margins increased to $1.2 billion during the 2007
Quarter from $858 million in the 2006 Quarter, reflecting improved industry margins particularly
in our Mid-Continent region and higher refining throughput primarily due to the acquisition of the
Los Angeles refinery. During the 2007 Quarter, the Los Angeles refinery contributed gross
refining margins of $107 million. In our Mid-Continent region, gross refining
margins increased 59% to $27.49 per barrel in the 2007 Quarter from $17.32 per barrel in the 2006
Quarter. The increase reflects unscheduled industry refinery outages in the region and low diesel
inventories combined with strong diesel demand. Gross refining margins were negatively impacted
at our North Dakota refinery during the 2006 Quarter due to unscheduled downtime. In our Pacific
Northwest region, gross refining margins increased 20% to $19.03 per barrel in the 2007 Quarter
versus $15.80 per barrel in the 2006 Quarter reflecting low industry gasoline levels due to
extended industry turnaround activity and unplanned outages on the U.S. West Coast. During the
2006 Quarter, a scheduled refinery turnaround at our Alaska refinery negatively impacted gross
refining margins.
Total refining throughput averaged 612 thousand barrels per day (Mbpd) in the 2007 Quarter
compared to 544 Mbpd during the 2006 Quarter primarily reflecting average refining throughput at
our Los Angeles refinery of 50 Mbpd (see footnote (c) on page 24 for additional information
related to refining throughput at the Los Angeles refinery during the 2007 Quarter). Throughput
at our Los Angeles refinery was negatively impacted during the 2007 Quarter due to scheduled
turnarounds. Excluding the Los Angeles refinery, throughput increased 18 Mbpd from the 2006
Quarter reflecting a scheduled turnaround at our Alaska refinery and unscheduled downtime at our
North Dakota refinery during the 2006 Quarter.
Revenues from sales of refined products increased 13% to $5.4 billion in the 2007 Quarter, from
$4.8 billion in the 2006 Quarter, primarily due to higher refined product sales volumes. Total
refined product sales averaged 654 Mbpd in the 2007 Quarter, an increase of 70 Mbpd from the 2006
Quarter, primarily reflecting additional sales from our Los Angeles refinery. Our average costs of
sales decreased 3% to $72.05 per barrel during the 2007 Quarter reflecting lower average feedstock
prices. Expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased to $298 million in the 2007
Quarter, compared to $211 million in the 2006 Quarter with $41 million of the increase in
operating expenses coming from the Los Angeles refinery. Excluding the Los Angeles refinery,
these expenses increased by $46 million reflecting higher employee costs of $13 million, higher
repairs and maintenance of $12 million, increased utilities of $9 million and higher marine
charter expenses of $7 million. Depreciation and amortization increased to $79 million in the 2007
Quarter, compared to $54 million in the 2006 Quarter, reflecting depreciation and amortization of
$11 million associated with the Los Angeles refinery and the recent increases in capital
expenditures.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2006. Operating income
from our refining segment was $1.0 billion in the 2007 Period compared to $718 million for the
2006 Period. The increase in our operating income was primarily due to increased gross refining
margins in all of our regions and higher refining throughput, partially offset by higher operating
expenses. Total gross refining margins increased to $17.92 per barrel in the 2007 Period compared
to $13.44 per barrel in the 2006 Period reflecting the industry trends noted above. In the 2006
first quarter, higher average product inventory levels on the U.S. West Coast due to record high
industry throughput and gasoline production negatively impacted gross refining margins. Gross
refining margins were also negatively impacted during the 2006 first quarter as heavy rains on the
U.S. West Coast reduced product demand.
On an aggregate basis, total gross refining margins increased to $1.7 billion during the 2007
Period from $1.3 billion in the 2006 Period, reflecting higher industry margins and the impact of
acquiring the Los Angeles refinery during the period. In our California region, gross refining
margins increased to $24.65 per barrel in the 2007 Period from $20.16 per barrel in the 2006
Period primarily reflecting continued strong demand combined with heavy industry turnaround
25
activity and unplanned outages on the U.S. West Coast. However, during the 2007 first quarter, we
were unable to capture more of the strong industry margins due to scheduled and unscheduled
downtime in which we completed scheduled refinery maintenance turnarounds at our Golden Eagle
refinery of the fluid catalytic cracker (FCC) and hydrocracking units. The turnaround of the
FCC unit was extended due to unanticipated repairs and equipment malfunctions shortly after
start-up also required additional downtime. In our Pacific Northwest region, gross refining
margins increased 38% to $16.30 per barrel in the 2007 Period versus $11.82 per barrel in the 2006
Period due to heavy industry turnaround activity and unscheduled downtime on the U.S. West Coast
in the current year and the negative impact of a scheduled refinery turnaround at our Alaska
refinery during the 2006 Quarter. Gross refining margins in our Mid-Continent region increased
61% to $20.88 per barrel from $12.93 per barrel year-over-year due to unscheduled industry
refinery outages at several refineries in the region and higher diesel demand. Unscheduled
downtime at our North Dakota refinery during the 2006 Quarter negatively impacted our
Mid-Continent gross refining margins in the 2006 Period.
Total refining throughput averaged 539 Mbpd in the 2007 Period compared to 520 Mbpd in the 2006
Period, primarily reflecting average refining throughput at our Los Angeles refinery of 25 Mbpd
(see footnote (c) on page 24 for additional information related to refining throughput at the Los
Angeles refinery during the 2007 Period). During the 2007 Period, we experienced scheduled
downtime at our Golden Eagle, Utah and Los Angeles refineries and extended downtime at our Golden
Eagle refinery. During the 2006 Period, we experienced scheduled refinery turnarounds at our
Golden Eagle and Alaska refineries and unscheduled downtime at our North Dakota refinery. We also
experienced reduced throughput at our Alaska refinery during the 2006 first quarter as a result of
the grounding of one of our time-chartered vessels which impacted our supply of feedstocks to the
refinery.
Revenues from sales of refined products increased 7% to $9.1 billion in the 2007 Period, from $8.5
billion in the 2006 Period, primarily due to slightly higher refined product sales volumes and
average refined product sales prices. Total product sales averaged 598 Mbpd in the 2007 Period, an
increase of 22 Mbpd from the 2006 Period, primarily reflecting additional sales from our Los
Angeles refinery. Our average product prices increased 3% to $84.12 per barrel, reflecting the
continued strength in market fundamentals. Our average costs of sales decreased 2% to $68.49 per
barrel during the 2007 Period, reflecting lower average feedstock prices. Expenses, excluding
depreciation and amortization, increased to $545 million in the 2007 Period, compared to $427
million in the 2006 Period, with $41 million of the increase in operating expenses coming from the
Los Angeles refinery. Excluding the Los Angeles refinery, these expenses increased by $77 million
reflecting higher repairs and maintenance of $28 million, increased employee costs of $24 million
and increased marine charter expenses of $17 million. Depreciation and amortization increased to
$141 million in the 2007 Period, compared to $108 million in the 2006 Period, primarily reflecting
depreciation and amortization of $11 million associated with the Los Angeles refinery and the
recent increases in capital expenditures.

Management uses fuel margin per gallon to compare profitability to other companies in the
industry. Fuel margin per gallon is calculated by dividing fuel gross margin by fuel sales
volume and may not be calculated similarly by other companies. Investors and analysts use
fuel margin per gallon to help analyze and compare companies in the industry on the basis of
operating performance. This financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to
segment operating income and revenues or any other measure of financial performance presented
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. |

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2006. Our
retail segment was break-even for the 2007 Quarter, compared to an operating loss of $12 million in
the 2006 Quarter. Total gross margins increased to $54 million during the 2007 Quarter from $22
million in the 2006 Quarter reflecting higher sales volumes and fuel margins per gallon. Fuel
margin increased to $0.15 per gallon in the 2007 Quarter compared to $0.10 per gallon in the 2006
Quarter primarily reflecting retail prices lagging decreasing wholesale prices. Total gallons sold
increased to 244 million from 111 million, reflecting the increase in average station count to 714
in the 2007 Quarter from 466 in the 2006 quarter, resulting from an additional 416 retail sites
from our Los Angeles Assets and USA Petroleum Assets acquisitions (see Note C). During the 2007
Quarter, our Shell-branded and USA-branded stations contributed 133 million
gallons in fuel sales since May 2007. As of June 30, 2007 our retail
27
network totaled 891 branded retail stations (under the Tesoro®, Shell®, Mirastar® and USA® brands),
comprising 453 company-operated retail stations and 438 jobber/dealer retail stations.
Revenues on fuel sales increased to $690 million in the 2007 Quarter, from $295 million in the 2006
Quarter, reflecting increased sales prices and higher sales volumes. Costs of sales increased in
the 2007 Quarter due to higher sales volumes and increased average
prices of purchased fuel.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2006. Operating loss for
our retail segment was $11 million in the 2007 Period, compared to an operating loss of $24 million
in the 2006 Period. The 2006 first quarter included an impairment charge of $4 million related to
the sale of 13 retail sites located in the Pacific Northwest in August 2006. Total gross margins
increased to $74 million during the 2007 Period from $46 million in the 2006 Period primarily
reflecting increased sales volumes and slightly higher fuel margins per gallon. Fuel margin
increased slightly to $0.14 per gallon in the 2007 Period compared to $0.12 per gallon in the 2006
Period primarily reflecting retail prices lagging decreasing wholesale prices. Total gallons sold
increased to 348 million from 210 million, reflecting the increase in average station count to 588
in the 2007 Period from 469 in the 2006 Period resulting from an additional 416 retail sites from
our Los Angeles Assets and USA Petroleum Assets acquisitions (see Note C).
Revenues on fuel sales increased to $918 million in the 2007 Period, from $508 million in the 2006
Period, reflecting higher sales prices and sales volumes. Costs of sales increased in the 2007
Period due to increased sales volumes and higher average prices of purchased fuel.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $73 million and $142 million for the 2007
Quarter and 2007 Period, respectively, compared to $45 million and $85 million in the 2006 Quarter
and 2006 Period, respectively. The increase during the 2007 Quarter related to increased employee
costs of $9 million, increased stock-based compensation expenses of $10 million and integration
expenses related to our acquisitions of $6 million. The increase during the 2007 Period was
primarily due to increased stock-based compensation expenses of $24 million, increased employee
costs of $12 million and integration expenses related to our acquisitions totaling $10 million.
For additional information related to stock-based compensation see Note I of the condensed
consolidated financial statements.
Interest and Financing Costs
Interest and financing costs increased by $9 million and $6 million in the 2007 Quarter and 2007
Period, respectively. The increases were primarily due to the additional debt we incurred during
the 2007 Quarter in connection with our acquisition of the Los Angeles refinery and financing fees
related to our 364-day term loan.
Interest Income and Other
Interest income and other increased by $4 million and $8 million for the 2007 Quarter and 2007
Period, respectively. The increases reflect a significant increase in invested cash in 2007 through
mid-May, partially offset by a $5 million gain recorded during the 2006 Period associated with the
sale of our leased corporate headquarters.
Income Tax Provision
The income tax provision totaled $267 million and $336 million for the 2007 Quarter and 2007
Period, respectively, compared to $203 million and $231 million for the 2006 Quarter and 2006
Period, respectively, reflecting higher earnings before income taxes. The combined federal and
state effective income tax rate decreased to 38% in the 2007 Period from 39% in the 2006 Period
primarily reflecting an increase in the federal tax deduction for domestic manufacturing
activities.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Overview
We operate in an environment where our capital resources and liquidity are impacted by changes in
the price of crude oil and refined petroleum products, availability of trade credit, market
uncertainty and a variety of additional factors beyond our control. These risks include, among
others, the level of consumer product demand, weather conditions, fluctuations in seasonal demand,
governmental regulations, worldwide geopolitical conditions and overall market and economic
conditions. See Forward-Looking Statements on page 36 for further information related to risks
and other factors. Future capital expenditures, as well as borrowings under our revolving lines of
credit and other sources of capital, may be affected by these conditions.
Our primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations and borrowing availability
under revolving lines of credit. We ended the second quarter of 2007 with $169 million of cash and
cash equivalents, $250 million in borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and $1.3 billion
in available borrowing capacity under our credit agreement after $227 million in outstanding
letters of credit. We also have a separate letters of credit agreement of which we had $59 million
available after $191 million in outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2007. Since June
2007, we have repaid the balance on our revolving credit agreement. We believe available capital
resources will be adequate to meet our capital expenditures, working capital and debt service
requirements.
Acquisitions
On May 10, 2007, we acquired the Los Angeles Assets for $1.82 billion (which includes $256 million
for petroleum inventories and direct costs of $13 million). To fund the acquisition, we issued
$500 million aggregate principal amount of 6 1/2% senior notes due 2017, borrowed $500 million under
our amended and restated credit agreement and paid the remainder with cash on-hand. On May 1,
2007, we paid $285 million in cash (including inventories of $15 million and direct costs of $3
million) for the USA Petroleum Assets, including the USA® brand. See Note C of the condensed
consolidated financial statements for further information.
Cash Settlement with Tosco Corporation
On March 2, 2007, we settled our dispute with Tosco Corporation concerning soil and groundwater
conditions at the Golden Eagle refinery. We received $58.5 million in cash from ConocoPhillips as
successor in interest to Tosco and Phillips Petroleum, both former owners and operators of the
refinery. In exchange for the settlement payment we released and agreed to indemnify
ConocoPhillips from both Toscos obligations concerning all environmental conditions at the
refinery and Phillips liabilities for environmental conditions as a former owner of the refinery.
Our environmental reserves include the $58.5 million settlement as of June 30, 2007. See
Environmental and Other below for further information.
Cash Dividends
On August 3, 2007, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of
$0.10 per share, payable on September 17, 2007 to shareholders
of record on September 3, 2007.
In March 2007 and June 2007, we paid a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $0.05 per share
(reflects May 2007 two-for-one stock split) and $0.10 per share, respectively, totaling $20
million.

Since June 2007, we repaid the remaining balance under our revolving credit facility. As of June
30, 2007 debt maturities for the next five years are as follows: $1 million for the remainder of
2007; $2 million in 2008; $2 million in 2009; $2 million in 2010; $1 million in 2011; and $1.8
billion thereafter. Payments in the years 2007 through 2011 relate to our capital lease
obligations. At June 30, 2007, our debt to capitalization ratio was 37% compared with 29% at
year-end 2006, reflecting additional indebtedness related to the Los Angeles Assets acquisition.
Our senior notes and credit agreement impose various restrictions and covenants on us that could
potentially limit our ability to respond to market conditions, raise additional debt or equity
capital, or take advantage of business opportunities.
Credit Agreement
On May 11, 2007, we amended and restated our revolving credit agreement to increase the revolvers
total available capacity to $1.75 billion from $750 million and borrowed $500 million under the
revolving credit facility to partially fund the acquisition of the Los Angeles Assets. The
five-year amended credit agreement provides for borrowings (including letters of credit) up to the
lesser of the agreements total capacity or the amount of a periodically adjusted borrowing base
($2.3 billion as of June 30, 2007), consisting of Tesoros eligible cash and cash equivalents,
receivables and petroleum inventories, as defined. As of June 30, 2007, we had $250 million in
borrowings and $227 million in letters of credit outstanding under the amended credit agreement,
resulting in total unused credit availability of $1.3 billion or 74% of the eligible borrowing
base. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at either a base rate (8.25% at
June 30, 2007) or a eurodollar rate (5.32% at June 30, 2007), plus an applicable margin. The
applicable margin at June 30, 2007 was 1.00% in the case of the eurodollar rate but varies based
upon our credit facility availability and credit ratings. Letters of credit outstanding under the
revolving credit facility incur fees at an annual rate tied to the eurodollar rate applicable
margin (1.00% at June 30, 2007). We also incur commitment fees for the unused portion of the
revolving credit facility at an annual rate of 0.25% as of June 30, 2007.
Letters of Credit Agreement
We also have a separate letters of credit agreement that provides up to $250 million in letters of
credit for the purchase of foreign crude oil. The agreement is secured by the crude oil
inventories supported by letters of credit issued under the agreement and will remain in effect
until terminated by either party. Letters of credit outstanding under this agreement incur fees
at an annual rate of 1.25% to 1.38%. As of June 30, 2007, we had $191 million in letters of
credit outstanding under this agreement, resulting in total unused credit availability of $59
million, or 24% of total capacity under this credit agreement.
6 1/2% Senior Notes Due 2017
On May 29, 2007, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6 1/2% senior notes due June 1,
2017 through a private offering. The proceeds from the notes offering, together with cash on hand,
were used to repay borrowings under our 364-day term loan. The notes have a ten-year maturity with
no sinking fund requirements and are subject to
30
optional redemption by Tesoro beginning June 1, 2012 at premiums of 3.25% through May 31, 2013;
2.17% from June 1, 2013 through May 31, 2014; 1.08% from June 1, 2014 through May 31, 2015; and at
par thereafter. We have the right to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount at a
redemption price of 106.5% with proceeds from certain equity issuances through June 1, 2010. The
indenture for the notes contains covenants and restrictions that are customary for notes of this
nature. Substantially all of these covenants will terminate before the notes mature if one of two
specified ratings agencies assigns the notes an investment grade rating and no events of default
exist under the indenture. The terminated covenants will not be restored even if the credit rating
assigned to the notes subsequently falls below investment grade. The notes are unsecured and are
guaranteed by substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries.
364-Day Term Loan
On May 11, 2007 we entered into a $700 million 364-day term loan, which was used to partially fund
the acquisition of the Los Angeles Assets. On May 29, 2007, we repaid this loan, using the net
proceeds from the 6 1/2% Senior Notes offering and cash on hand. The 364-day term loan was
terminated upon repayment.
9 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2012
On April 9, 2007, we voluntarily prepaid the remaining $14 million outstanding principal balance of
our 9 5/8% senior subordinated notes at a redemption price of 104.8%.

Net cash from operating activities during the 2007 Period totaled $881 million, compared to $409
million in the 2006 Period. The increase was primarily due to increased cash earnings and lower
working capital requirements. Net cash used in investing activities of $2.4 billion in the 2007
Period was for acquisitions and capital expenditures. Net cash from financing activities primarily
reflects the issuance of our $500 million 6 1/2% senior notes and net borrowings of $250 million
under our revolving credit facility. During the 2007 Period, we did not have any other borrowings under our
revolving credit facility other than the borrowings described above to finance the Los Angeles
Assets acquisition. Working capital was $494 million at June 30, 2007 compared to $1.1 billion at
year-end 2006. The decrease was primarily as a result of cash used to partially fund the
acquisitions and the increase in accounts payable, partially offset by higher receivables and
inventories, all of which are primarily related to the acquisitions.

Historical EBITDA
EBITDA represents earnings before interest and financing costs, interest income and other, income
taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We present EBITDA because we believe some investors and
analysts use EBITDA to help analyze our cash flow including our ability to satisfy principal and
interest obligations with respect to our indebtedness and to use cash for other purposes, including
capital expenditures. EBITDA is also used by some investors and analysts to analyze and compare
companies on the basis of operating performance. EBITDA is also used by management for internal
analysis and as a component of the fixed charge coverage financial covenant in our credit
agreement. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings, earnings before
income taxes, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance
presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities. Our

Historical EBITDA as presented above differs from EBITDA as defined under our credit agreement.
The primary differences are non-cash postretirement benefit costs and loss on asset disposals and
impairments, which are added to net earnings under the credit agreement EBITDA calculations.
Capital Expenditures and Refinery Turnaround Spending
In May 2007, we revised our 2007 capital spending program from $650 million to $900 million
(including refinery turnarounds and other maintenance costs of approximately $125 million). The
increase includes $125 million for the capital and turnaround spending associated with the Los
Angeles Assets. Another $100 million reflects accelerating 2008 planned spending on the Golden
Eagle coker modification project into 2007. The total budget for the coker modification project
remains unchanged. The remainder of the increased spending relates to cost increases in the first
quarter for turnarounds and other projects.
We expect to spend approximately $325 million to $350 million between 2007 and 2011 at our Los
Angeles refinery to increase reliability, throughput levels and the production of clean products.
We also plan to spend an additional $375 million to $400 million between 2007 and 2011 for various
environmental projects at the refinery primarily to lower air emissions as well as improve fuel
efficiency at the refinery. Annual refinery turnaround and other maintenance spending is expected
to approximate $80 million. These cost estimates will be further reviewed and analyzed as we
acquire additional information through the operation of the assets.
32
During the 2007 Period, our capital expenditures, including accruals, totaled $435 million,
including refinery turnarounds and other maintenance spending of $106 million. Our significant
capital expenditures for the 2007 Period included $153 million for the delayed coker modification
project at our Golden Eagle refinery, $25 million for the diesel desulfurizer unit at our Alaska
refinery and $14 million for sulfur handling projects at our Washington refinery. Refinery
turnarounds and other maintenance spending consisted primarily of the scheduled turnarounds at our
Golden Eagle, Los Angeles and Utah refineries.
Contractual Commitments
In connection with the Los Angeles Assets and USA Petroleum Assets acquisitions, we assumed various
contractual commitments related to operating leases and supplies of crude oil and hydrogen. Our
assumed operating lease commitments include primarily retail station sites associated with the land
and/or buildings and improvements with remaining terms up to 46 years and generally with renewal
options. For the remainder of 2007 we expect to pay approximately $3 million under these lease
agreements and for 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 we expect to pay $7 million, $6 million, $5 million
and $4 million, respectively, under these agreements. Beyond 2011, lease payments associated with
these agreements are estimated to total $10 million. We also assumed a take-or-pay arrangement to
purchase hydrogen associated with the operation of the refinery. The agreement requires minimum
payments of approximately $24 million per year through 2012.
Our new crude supply arrangements associated with the Los Angeles refinery have initial terms up to
one year. Prices under these term agreements generally fluctuate with market responsive pricing
provisions. To estimate our new commitments under these contracts, we used actual market prices as
of June 30, 2007 ranging from $51 per barrel to $73 per barrel. For the remainder of 2007 we expect
to pay approximately $705 million under these new commitments and for 2008 we expect to pay
approximately $155 million under these agreements.
See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding our estimated contractual
long-term commitments.
Environmental and Other
Tesoro is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These
laws, which change frequently, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may
require us to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum
or chemical substances at various sites, install additional controls, or make other modifications
or changes in use for certain emission sources.
Conditions may develop that cause increases or decreases in future expenditures for our various
sites, including, but not limited to, our refineries, tank farms, retail stations (operating and
closed locations) and refined products terminals, and for compliance with the Clean Air Act and
other federal, state and local requirements. We cannot currently determine the amounts of such
future expenditures.
Environmental Liabilities
We are currently involved in remedial responses and have incurred and expect to continue to incur
cleanup expenditures associated with environmental matters at a number of sites, including certain
of our previously owned properties. At June 30, 2007, our accruals for environmental expenses
totaled $83 million. Our accruals for environmental expenses include retained liabilities for
previously owned or operated properties, refining, pipeline and terminal operations and retail
stations. We believe these accruals are adequate, based on currently available information,
including the participation of other parties or former owners in remediation action.
On March 2, 2007, we settled our dispute with Tosco Corporation (Tosco) concerning soil and
groundwater conditions at the Golden Eagle refinery. We received $58.5 million from ConocoPhillips
as successor in interest to Tosco and Phillips Petroleum (Phillips), both former owners and
operators of the refinery. As previously reported, in connection with our acquisition of the
refinery from Ultramar, Inc. in May 2002, Ultramar assigned certain of its rights and obligations
that Ultramar had acquired from Tosco in August of 2000. Tosco assumed responsibility and
contractually indemnified us for up to $50 million for certain environmental liabilities arising
from operations at the
33
refinery prior to August of 2000 (Pre-Acquisition Operations). In November 2003, we filed suit
in Contra Costa County Superior Court against Tosco alleging that Tosco misrepresented, concealed
and failed to disclose certain additional environmental conditions at the refinery related to the
Pre-Acquisition Operations. The Court granted Toscos motion to compel arbitration of our claims
for these certain additional environmental conditions. We initiated arbitration proceedings
against Tosco in December 2003 concerning the Pre-Acquisition Operations and Tosco filed
counterclaims against us. As part of the settlement all claims and counterclaims in the
arbitration and the court action pending arbitration have been dismissed. In exchange for the
settlement payment we released and agreed to indemnify ConocoPhillips from both Toscos obligations
concerning all environmental conditions at the refinery and Phillips liabilities for environmental
conditions as a former owner of the refinery. Based on existing information, it is possible that
the soil and groundwater environmental liabilities arising from Pre-Acquisition Operations could
exceed the $58.5 million settlement amount. We expect to be reimbursed for excess liabilities
under certain environmental insurance policies that provide $140 million of coverage in excess of
the settlement proceeds attributable to Toscos contractual indemnity. We have included the $58.5
million in the environmental accruals referenced above.
We are continuing to investigate environmental conditions at certain active wastewater treatment
units at our Golden Eagle refinery. This investigation is driven by an order from the San Francisco
Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board that names us as well as two previous owners of the Golden
Eagle refinery. A reserve for this matter is included in the environmental accruals referenced
above.
In March 2007, we received an offer from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (the
District) to settle 77 Notices of Violation (NOVs) for $4 million. The NOVs allege violations
of air quality at our Golden Eagle refinery. We are currently negotiating a settlement of this
matter with the District. A reserve for this matter is included in the environmental accruals
referenced above.
In October 2005, we received an NOV from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The EPA alleges certain modifications made to the fluid catalytic cracking unit at our Washington
refinery prior to our acquisition of the refinery were made in violation of the Clean Air Act. We
have investigated the allegations and believe the ultimate resolution of the NOV will not have a
material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. A reserve for our
response to the NOV is included in the environmental accruals referenced above.
Other Environmental Matters
In the ordinary course of business, we become party to or otherwise involved in lawsuits,
administrative proceedings and governmental investigations, including environmental, regulatory and
other matters. Large and sometimes unspecified damages or penalties may be sought from us in some
matters for which the likelihood of loss may be reasonably possible but the amount of loss is not
currently estimable, and some matters may require years for us to resolve. As a result, we have
not established reserves for these matters. On the basis of existing information, we believe that
the resolution of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse
effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, we cannot provide assurance
that an adverse resolution of one or more of the matters described below during a future reporting
period will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations
in future periods.
We are a defendant, along with other manufacturing, supply and marketing defendants, in ten pending
cases alleging MTBE contamination in groundwater. The defendants are being sued for having
manufactured MTBE and having manufactured, supplied and distributed gasoline containing MTBE. The
plaintiffs, all in California, are generally water providers, governmental authorities and private
well owners alleging, in part, the defendants are liable for manufacturing or distributing a
defective product. The suits generally seek individual, unquantified compensatory and punitive
damages and attorneys fees, but we cannot estimate the amount or the likelihood of the ultimate
resolution of these matters at this time, and accordingly have not established a reserve for these
cases. We believe we have defenses to these claims and intend to vigorously defend the lawsuits.
Environmental Capital Expenditures
EPA regulations related to the Clean Air Act require reductions in the sulfur content in gasoline.
Our Golden Eagle, Los Angeles, Washington, Hawaii, Alaska and North Dakota refineries will not
require additional capital spending to
34
meet the low sulfur gasoline standards. We are currently developing plans to install certain
desulfurization equipment at the Utah refinery to satisfy the requirements of the regulations.
EPA regulations related to the Clean Air Act also require reductions in the sulfur content in
diesel fuel manufactured for on-road consumption. In general, the new on-road diesel fuel
standards became effective on June 1, 2006. In May 2004, the EPA issued a rule regarding the
sulfur content of non-road diesel fuel. The requirements to reduce non-road diesel sulfur content
will become effective in phases between 2007 and 2012. In May 2007, we completed the diesel
desulfurizer unit at our Alaska refinery, enabling the refinery to manufacture additional ultra-low
sulfur diesel. We spent $25 million on this project during the first six months of 2007. We also
have budgeted $10 million to complete an expansion of the diesel desulfurizer at our Utah refinery.
This project, which is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2008, will allow the
refinerys full diesel fuel production to meet the current requirements under the standards. We
are currently evaluating alternative projects that will satisfy the future requirements under
existing regulations at our North Dakota, Utah and Hawaii refineries. Our Golden Eagle, Los
Angeles, Washington and Alaska refineries will not require additional capital spending to meet the
new diesel fuel standards.
In February 2007, the EPA issued regulations for the reduction of benzene in gasoline. We are
still evaluating the impact of this standard, however, based on our preliminary estimates we expect
to spend approximately $200 million between 2008 to 2011 to meet the new regulations at five of our
refineries. Our Golden Eagle and Los Angeles refineries will not require capital spending to meet
the new benzene reduction standards.
In connection with our 2001 acquisition of our North Dakota and Utah refineries, Tesoro assumed the
sellers obligations and liabilities under a consent decree among the United States, BP Exploration
and Oil Co. (BP), Amoco Oil Company and Atlantic Richfield Company. BP entered into this consent
decree for both the North Dakota and Utah refineries for various alleged violations. As the owner
of these refineries, Tesoro is required to address issues to reduce air emissions. We have
budgeted $18 million through 2009 to comply with this consent decree, $4 million of which was spent
in the first six months of 2007. We also agreed to indemnify the sellers for all losses of any
kind incurred in connection with the consent decree.
In connection with the 2002 acquisition of our Golden Eagle refinery, subject to certain
conditions, we assumed the sellers obligations pursuant to settlement efforts with the EPA
concerning the Section 114 refinery enforcement initiative under the Clean Air Act, except for any
potential monetary penalties, which the seller retains. In November 2005, the Consent Decree was
entered by the District Court for the Western District of Texas in which we agreed to undertake
projects at our Golden Eagle refinery to reduce air emissions. We have budgeted capital
improvements of approximately $25 million through 2010 to satisfy the requirements of the Consent
Decree, $1 million of which was spent during the first six months of 2007.
We have
developed a plan to eliminate the use of any atmospheric blowdown towers at our refineries. We
believe that this plan will provide for safer operating conditions for our employees and will
address environmental regulatory issues related to monitoring potential air emissions from
components connected to the blowdown towers. We have budgeted $91 million through 2010 to
eliminate the use of atmospheric blowdown towers, $13 million of which was spent during the first
six months of 2007.
During the fourth quarter of 2005, we received approval by the Hearing Board for the Bay Area Air
Quality Management District to modify our existing fluid coker unit to a delayed coker at our
Golden Eagle refinery which is designed to lower emissions while also enhancing the refinerys
capabilities in terms of reliability, lengthening turnaround cycles and reducing operating costs.
We negotiated the terms and conditions of the Second Conditional Abatement Order with the District
in response to the January 2005 mechanical failure of the fluid coker boiler at the Golden Eagle
refinery. The total capital budget for this project is $503 million, which includes remaining
budgeted spending of $223 million through 2008. The project is currently scheduled to be
substantially completed during the first quarter of 2008, with spending through the first half of
2008. We have spent $280 million from inception of the project, of which $153 million was spent in
the first six months of 2007.
We will spend additional capital at the Golden Eagle refinery for reconfiguring and replacing
above-ground storage tank systems and upgrading piping within the refinery. We have budgeted
approximately $110 million from 2007 through 2011, $9 million of which was spent during the first
six months of 2007. Our capital budget also includes
35
spending of $29 million through 2010 to upgrade a marine oil terminal at the Golden Eagle refinery
to meet engineering and maintenance standards issued by the State of California in February 2006.
The Los Angeles Assets are subject to extensive environmental requirements. We anticipate spending
approximately $375 million to $400 million between 2007 and 2011 for various environmental projects
at the refinery primarily to lower air emissions as well as improve fuel efficiency at the
refinery. These estimates will be further reviewed and analyzed after we acquire additional
information through the operation of the assets.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our primary source of market risk is the difference between prices received from the sale of
refined products and the prices paid for crude oil and other feedstocks. We have a risk management
committee responsible for, among other things, (i) managing risks arising from transactions and
commitments related to the sale and purchase of crude oil, other feedstocks, refined products and
derivative arrangements and (ii) making recommendations to executive management.
Commodity Price Risks
Our earnings and cash flows from operations depend on the margin above fixed and variable expenses
(including the costs of crude oil and other feedstocks) and the margin above those expenses at
which we are able to sell refined products. The prices of crude oil and refined products have
fluctuated substantially in recent years. These prices depend on many factors, including the
demand for crude oil, gasoline and other refined products, which in turn depend on, among other
factors, changes in the economy, the level of foreign and domestic production of crude oil and
refined products, geo-political conditions, the availability of imports of crude oil and refined
products, the marketing of alternative and competing fuels and the impact of government
regulations. The prices we receive for refined products are also affected by local factors such as
local market conditions and the level of operations of other suppliers in our markets.
The prices at which we sell our refined products are influenced by the commodity price of crude
oil. Generally, an increase or decrease in the price of crude oil results in a corresponding
increase or decrease in the price of gasoline and other refined products. However, the prices for
crude oil and prices for our refined products can fluctuate in different directions based on global
market conditions. In addition, the timing of the relative movement of the prices, as well as the
overall change in refined product prices, can reduce profit margins and could have a significant
impact on our earnings and cash flows. In addition, the majority of our crude oil supply contracts
are short-term in nature with market-responsive pricing provisions. Our financial results can be
affected significantly by price level changes during the period between purchasing refinery
feedstocks and selling the manufactured refined products from such feedstocks. We also purchase
refined products manufactured by others for resale to our customers. Our financial results can be
affected significantly by price level changes during the periods between purchasing and selling
such refined products. Assuming all other factors remained constant, a $1.00 per barrel change in
average gross refining margins, based on our 2007 year-to-date average throughput of 539 Mbpd,
would change annualized pretax operating income by approximately $197 million.
We maintain inventories of crude oil, intermediate products and refined products, the values of
which are subject to fluctuations in market prices. Our inventories of refinery feedstocks and
refined products totaled 34 million barrels and 26 million barrels at June 30, 2007 and December
31, 2006, respectively. The average cost of our refinery feedstocks and refined products at June
30, 2007 was approximately $34 per barrel on a LIFO basis, compared to market prices of
approximately $75 per barrel. If market prices decline to a level below the average cost of these
inventories, we would be required to write down the carrying value of our inventory.
Tesoro periodically enters into non-trading derivative arrangements primarily to manage exposure to
commodity price risks associated with the purchase of feedstocks and blendstocks and the purchase
and sale of manufactured and purchased refined products. To manage these risks, we typically enter
into exchange-traded futures and over-the-counter swaps, generally with durations of one year or
less. We mark to market our non-hedging derivative instruments and recognize the changes in their
fair values in earnings. We include the carrying amounts of our derivatives in other current
assets or accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. We did not designate or account
for any derivative instruments as hedges during the 2007 first or second quarters. Accordingly, no
change in the value of the related underlying physical asset is recorded. During the second
quarter of 2007, we settled derivative positions of approximately 151 million barrels of crude oil
and refined products, which resulted in gains of $54 million. At June 30, 2007, we had open net
derivative positions of approximately 7 million barrels, which will expire at various times during
2007. We recorded the fair value of our open positions, which resulted in an unrealized
mark-to-market loss of $55 million at June 30, 2007.
37
We prepared a sensitivity analysis to estimate our exposure to market risk associated with our
derivative instruments. This analysis may differ from actual results. The fair value of each
derivative instrument was based on quoted market prices. Based on our open net positions of 7
million barrels as of June 30, 2007, a $1.00 per-barrel change in quoted market prices of our
derivative instruments, assuming all other factors remain constant,
would change the fair value of our derivative instruments and pretax operating income by $7 million. As of December 31,
2006, a $1.00 per-barrel change in quoted market prices for our derivative instruments, assuming
all other factors remain constant, would have changed the fair value of our derivative instruments
and pretax operating income by $10 million.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We carried out an evaluation required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange
Act as of the end of the period. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. During the
quarter ended June 30, 2007, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On March 2, 2007, we settled our dispute with Tosco Corporation (Tosco) concerning soil and
groundwater conditions at the Golden Eagle refinery. We received $58.5 million from ConocoPhillips
as successor in interest to Tosco and Phillips Petroleum (Phillips), both former owners and
operators of the refinery. As previously reported, in November 2003, we filed suit in Contra Costa
County Superior Court against Tosco alleging that Tosco misrepresented, concealed and failed to
disclose certain environmental conditions at our Golden Eagle refinery. The court granted Toscos
motion to compel arbitration of our claims for these certain environmental conditions. We also
initiated arbitration proceedings against Tosco in December 2003 concerning soil and groundwater
environmental conditions for which Tosco owed us a contractual indemnity. As part of the
settlement all claims and counterclaims in the arbitration and the court action pending arbitration
have been dismissed. In exchange for the settlement payment we released and agreed to indemnify
ConocoPhillips from both Toscos obligations concerning all environmental conditions at the
refinery and Phillips liabilities for environmental conditions as a former owner of the refinery.
For further information related to the claims, see Note J in our consolidated financial statements
in Item 1 of Part 1, Financial Information.
In March 2007, we received an offer from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (the
District) to settle 77 Notices of Violation (NOVs) for $4 million. The NOVs allege violations
of air quality at our Golden Eagle refinery. We are currently discussing a settlement of this
matter with the District.
