Exhibit 99.1

HF Sinclair Announces Early Results of Cash Tender Offer of Debt Securities

DALLAS, January 23, 2025 — HF Sinclair Corporation (NYSE: DINO) (the “Corporation”) today announced the early results of the previously announced cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase the outstanding notes listed in the table below (collectively, the “Notes” and each a “Series” of Notes). All terms and conditions of the Tender Offer remain unchanged and are described in the Offer to Purchase dated January 8, 2025, as amended on January 8, 2025 (the “Offer to Purchase”). The Financing Condition for the Tender Offer as described in the Offer to Purchase has been satisfied. Capitalized terms used in this press release and not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

According to the information provided by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the aggregate principal amount of each Series of Notes that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Deadline is set forth in the table below.

 

Title of Security		CUSIP(1)				Issuer		Aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding Prior to the Tender Offer				Aggregate Principal Amount Tendered as of the Early Tender Deadline(2)				Aggregate Principal Amount Expected to Be Accepted for Purchase				Final Proration Factor(3)
6.375% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”)			403949 AK6 U4322C AD5 403949 AP5			HF Sinclair		$	399,875,000			$	361,067,000			$	150,000,000				41.5	%
5.875% Senior Notes due 2026			403949 AF7 U4322C AB9 403949 AB6			HF Sinclair		$	797,100,000			$	448,090,000			$	448,090,000				100	%
5.875% Senior Notes due 2026			436106AA6			HollyFrontier		$	202,900,000			$	48,496,000			$	48,496,000				100	%

 

(1)	No representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers listed in this Offer to Purchase or printed on the Notes. They are provided solely for the convenience of Holders of the Notes.

(2)	As reported by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the tender and information agent for the Tender Offer.

(3)	The final proration factor has been rounded to the nearest tenth of a percentage point for presentation purposes.

The Corporation expects to accept for payment Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as shown in the table above on January 28, 2025 (the “Early Settlement Date”). Because the total aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline exceeds the $150.0 million 2027 Notes Tender Cap, the Corporation does not expect to accept any further tenders of the 2027 Notes.

The Tender Offer will remain open until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 7, 2025, unless extended or earlier terminated as described in the Offer to Purchase (such time and date, as it may be extended, the “Expiration Date”). Each Holder who validly tenders its Notes after the Early Tender Deadline will not be eligible to receive the Early Tender Premium of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. In accordance with the terms of the Offer to Purchase, the Corporation reserves the right to increase the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price or otherwise amend the Tender Offer, subject to applicable law.

The applicable Total Tender Offer Consideration will be determined by reference to the applicable fixed spread specified for such Series of Notes over the yield based on the bid-side price of the applicable U.S. Treasury Security, as described in the Offer to Purchase. The Total Tender Offer Consideration will be calculated by the Dealer Managers (identified below) for the Tender Offer at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, tomorrow, January 24, 2025.

All payments for Notes purchased in connection with the Early Tender Deadline will also include accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of Notes tendered and accepted for purchase from the last interest payment date applicable to the relevant Series of Notes up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date. In accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer, the withdrawal deadline was 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 23, 2025. As a result, tendered Notes may no longer be withdrawn, except in certain limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law (as determined by the Corporation).

---

Notes that have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or before the Early Tender Deadline and are accepted in the Tender Offer will be purchased, retired and cancelled by the Corporation on the Early Settlement Date.

BofA Securities and Citigroup are the Lead Dealer Managers for the Tender Offer. D.F. King & Co., Inc. is the Tender Agent and Information Agent. Persons with questions regarding the Tender Offer should contact BofA Securities, Inc. at [phone] (toll-free) or [phone] (collect) or [e-mail] or Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at [phone] (toll free) or [phone] or [e-mail].

King & Co., Inc. at [phone] (for banks and brokers) or [phone] (all others, toll-free) or email [e-mail].

This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell the Notes. The Tender Offer is made only by the Offer to Purchase and the information in this press release is qualified by reference to the Offer to Purchase. There is no separate letter of transmittal in connection with the Offer to Purchase. None of the Corporation, the Corporation’s Board of Directors, the Lead Dealer Managers, the Tender Agent and Information Agent or the trustee with respect to any Notes is making any recommendation as to whether Holders should tender any Notes in response to the Tender Offer, and neither the Corporation nor any such other person has authorized any person to make any such recommendation. Holders must make their own decision as to whether to tender any of their Notes, and, if so, the principal amount of Notes to tender.
