Where can I find the specific Q2 2017 financial results for Valero Energy?

The detailed financial and operating results for Valero's second quarter ended June 30, 2017, are provided in the press release furnished with this 8-K filing as Exhibit 99.01. Investors should review this press release for specific figures on revenue, earnings, and operational metrics.

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

When information is 'furnished' (as stated in Item 2.02 of this 8-K), it means the company is providing it to the SEC for public disclosure, but it does not carry the same legal implications as 'filed' information. Furnished information is generally not subject to the same liability provisions under the Securities Act of 1933 and will not be automatically incorporated into future SEC filings unless the company specifically chooses to do so.

Does this 8-K filing contain any new contracts or amendments?

This particular 8-K filing, dated July 27, 2017, focuses solely on the announcement of Valero's second-quarter results via a press release. It does not appear to contain information related to new material contracts, amendments, or other significant corporate events beyond the earnings announcement.
