Winston Score History

The full picture

Delek US Holdings is an energy company that buys crude oil and turns it into fuels like gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. It sells those fuels to gas stations, trucking companies, and other businesses that need refined petroleum products. The company operates refineries mainly in the southern and mid-continent United States, including facilities in Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana.

Delek makes most of its money on the "crack spread," which is the difference between what it pays for crude oil and what it charges for refined fuels. It also owns retail fuel stations and has a stake in pipeline and logistics assets through Delek Logistics Partners. Refining is a low-margin, commodity-driven business, and Delek's negative return on invested capital reflects how difficult the current margin environment has been. The biggest risk the company faces is a sustained narrowing of crack spreads, which can quickly turn thin profits into losses.

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
