What is the main purpose of this 8-K filing?

The main purpose of this 8-K filing is to officially submit Marathon Petroleum Corporation's press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Where can I find the actual financial results for Q1 2025?

The specific financial results, including revenue, earnings, and other operational metrics for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, are contained within the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this 8-K filing. You will need to access and review that document.

Does this filing contain new, unaudited financial statements?

No, the 8-K filing itself does not contain the detailed financial statements. It references a press release (Exhibit 99.1) where these results are typically summarized. The press release is the primary source for the quarter's financial performance data.

What is the significance of the information being 'furnished' rather than 'filed'?

When information is 'furnished' under Item 2.02, it means the company is providing it to the SEC but it is not subject to the liabilities associated with Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. While this is standard practice for earnings releases, it's important for investors to understand the regulatory distinction.
