Barclays maintains an 'Overweight' on Delek US (NYSE: DK) price target of $30.00.

Analyst, Paul Y. Cheng, said, "Management reiterates the importance of returning cash to shareholders, with a preference towards paying out special dividends over increasing the regular dividend...We expect the annual regular dividend will be raised to $0.20/share, up from $0.015/share currently, by 4Q12 or 1Q13...Management reiterates 2012 capex spend of $125mn (~$100mn in refining and ~$25mn in retail)...In 2014, due to major turnarounds at both El Dorado and Tyler refineries, capex is estimated to be approximately $165mn-$175mn...Management targets to maintain cash balance of $175mn-$200mn (to maintain sufficient liquidity for working capital)."
