PBF Energy Reports Third Quarter 2015 Results, Declares Dividend of $0.30 Per Share

Third Quarter EBITDA of $351.5 million, excluding special items
Third Quarter Adjusted Fully-Converted EPS of $1.85, based on Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income of $169.4 million, excluding special items (GAAP EPS of $0.50, based on GAAP Net Income of $42.8 million)
Raised $344.0 million in net proceeds from successful equity offering
Declares quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share

PARSIPPANY, NJ - October 29, 2015 - PBF Energy Inc. (NYSE: PBF) today reported third quarter 2015 Operating Income, excluding special items, of $298.4 million as compared to Operating Income of $284.1 million for the third quarter of 2014. Special items in the third quarter 2015 results include a net, non-cash, after-tax $124.6 million, or $1.36 per share, lower-of-cost-or-market ("LCM") inventory adjustment which decreased operating income. Our inventory is assessed for a potential LCM adjustment on a quarterly-basis and future adjustments based on movements of hydrocarbon prices could have a non-cash, positive or negative impact to our reported earnings.

Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income for the third quarter 2015, excluding special items, was $169.4 million, or $1.85 per share on a fully exchanged, fully diluted basis, as described below, compared to Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income of $155.6 million, or $1.60 per share, for the third quarter 2014. On a GAAP basis, the company reported a third quarter 2015 Net Income of $55.5 million, and Net Income attributable to PBF Energy Inc. of $42.8 million or $0.50 per share. This compares to GAAP Net Income of $170.0 million, and Net Income attributable to PBF Energy Inc. of $141.0 million or $1.61 per share for the third quarter 2014. PBF Energy's financial results reflect the consolidation of the financial results of PBF Logistics LP (NYSE: PBFX), a master limited partnership of which PBF indirectly owns the general partner and approximately 53.7% of the limited partner interests as of quarter-end.

Tom Nimbley, PBF Energy's CEO, said, “We benefited from a strong market in the third quarter that translated into solid earnings for our entire refining system. Our Mid-Continent asset outperformed and the East Coast delivered yet another positive quarter, demonstrating the flexibility of our operations and the benefits of having strategically located, complex refineries.”

Mr. Nimbley continued, “At the end of the quarter, PBF announced that we have entered into an agreement to purchase ExxonMobil's Torrance refinery in California. In conjunction with the previously announced Chalmette acquistion, the addition of these two assets will establish PBF Energy as the fourth largest independent refiner in North America with a presence in all of the U.S. coastal markets and the robust Mid-Continent market.” Mr. Nimbley concluded, “Subsequent to the end of the quarter, PBF Energy closed a successful equity offering, raising $344.0 million in net proceeds, which are intended to be used to fund portions of our pending transactions. Our focus now is to continue to operate our existing plants in a safe, reliable and environmentally responsible fashion and to work towards the successful closing and integration of the Chalmette and Torrance acquisitions.”

Raised $344.0 million in net proceeds from successful equity offering
On October 13, 2015, PBF closed its previously announced underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of 11,500,000 shares of its Class A common stock, including the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to

1





purchase up to 1,500,000 additional shares, at $31.00 per share. Net proceeds to PBF Energy, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated expenses, were approximately $344.0 million.

Previously announced Chalmette Refining LLC and Torrance Refinery acquisitions
On June 18, 2015, PBF announced that its subsidiary signed a definitive agreement to purchase Chalmette Refining, LLC, consisting of the 189,000 barrel per day Chalmette Refinery and related logistics assets, from ExxonMobil and PDV Chalmette, LLC. The purchase price for the assets is $322 million, plus working capital to be valued at closing. The transaction is expected to close in the middle of the fourth quarter 2015, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.

On September 30, 2015, PBF announced that its subsidiary signed a definitive agreement to purchase the 155,000 barrel per day Torrance refinery, and related logistics assets, from ExxonMobil. The purchase price for the assets is $537.5 million, plus working capital to be valued at closing. The Torrance transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2016, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. The refinery will be restored to full working order prior to close.

PBF Energy Inc. Declares Dividend
The company announced today that it will pay a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share of Class A common stock on November 24, 2015, to holders of record as of November 9, 2015.

PBF Energy Inc. Share Repurchase Program
On August 19, 2014, PBF announced that its board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $200 million of PBF Class A common stock. On October 29, 2014, the board of directors approved a $100 million increase to the existing authorization, for a total repurchase authorization of $300 million. The repurchase authorization expires on September 30, 2016.

These repurchases may be made from time to time through various methods, including open market transactions, block trades, accelerated share repurchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, certain of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 plans. The timing and number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, capital availability, legal requirements and economic and market conditions. PBF is not obligated to purchase any shares under the repurchase program, and repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

As of the end the third quarter, 6,050,717 shares of Class A common stock have been repurchased at an average price of approximately $24.92 per share, including broker fees. After giving effect to shares already purchased under the program, the company has approximately $149 million of available repurchasing authorization under the program going forward. At the end of the quarter, there were 91,005,208 shares of Class A common stock and PBF Energy Company LLC Series A Units outstanding.

Adjusted Fully-Converted Results
Adjusted fully-converted results assume the exchange of all PBF Energy Company LLC Series A Units and dilutive securities into shares of PBF Energy Inc. Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, resulting in the elimination of the noncontrolling interest and a corresponding adjustment to the company's tax provision.

Non-GAAP Measures
This earnings release, and the discussion during the management conference call, may include references to non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures including Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income, Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income per fully-exchanged, fully-diluted share, gross refining margin, gross refining margin per barrel of throughput, EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization), Adjusted EBITDA and projected EBITDA related to the refinery acquisitions. PBF believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about its operating performance and financial results. However, these measures have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be viewed in isolation or considered as alternatives for,

2





or superior to, comparable GAAP financial measures. PBF's non-GAAP financial measures may also differ from similarly named measures used by other companies. See the accompanying tables and footnotes in this release for additional information on the non-GAAP measures used in this release and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

PBF ENERGY INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

EARNINGS RELEASE TABLES
FOOTNOTES TO EARNINGS RELEASE TABLES
 
(1) Adjusted fully-converted information is presented in this table as management believes that these Non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") measures, are useful to investors to compare the company’s results across the periods presented and facilitates an understanding of the company’s operating results. The company also uses these measures to evaluate its operating performance. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The differences between adjusted fully-converted and GAAP results are explained in footnotes 2 through 7.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(2) Represents the elimination of the noncontrolling interest associated with the ownership by the members of PBF Energy Company LLC other than PBF Energy Inc., as if such members had fully exchanged their Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy's Class A common stock.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(3) Represents an adjustment to reflect the Company's statutory corporate tax rate of approximately 40.2% for the 2015 and 2014 periods applied to the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest for all periods presented. The adjustment assumes the full exchange of existing PBF Energy Company LLC Series A Units as described in footnote 2.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(4) The non-GAAP measures presented include adjusted fully-converted net income excluding special items, income from continuing operations excluding special items, EBITDA excluding special items, and gross refining margin excluding special items. The special items for the periods presented relate to a lower of cost or market adjustment (LCM). LCM is a GAAP guideline related to inventory valuation that requires inventory to be stated at the lower of cost or market. Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory valuation methodology, in which the most recently incurred costs are charged to cost of sales and inventories are valued at base layer acquisition costs. Market is determined based on an assessment of the current estimated replacement cost and net realizable selling price of the inventory. In periods where the market price of our inventory declines substantially, cost values of inventory may exceed market values. In such instances, we record an adjustment to write down the value of inventory to market value in accordance with GAAP. In subsequent periods, the value of inventory is reassessed and an LCM adjustment is recorded to reflect the net change in the LCM inventory reserve between the prior period and the current period. Although we believe that non-GAAP financial measures excluding the impact of special items provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the results and performance of our business and allow for more useful period-over-period comparisons, such non-GAAP measures should only be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(5) During the third quarter of 2015, the Company recorded an adjustment to value its inventories to the lower of cost or market which resulted in a net pre-tax charge of $208.3 million reflecting the change in the lower of cost or market inventory reserve from $562.9 million at June 30, 2015 to $771.3 million at September 30, 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded an adjustment to value its inventories to the lower of cost or market which resulted in a net pre-tax charge of $81.1 million reflecting the change in the lower of cost or market inventory reserve from $690.1 million at December 31, 2014 to $771.3 million at September 30, 2015.The net impact of these LCM inventory adjustments are included in the Refining segment's operating income, but are excluded from the operating results presented in the table in order to make such information comparable between periods.

(8) EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures as a supplement to our GAAP results in order to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are measures of operating performance that are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not calculated in the same manner by all companies, they are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have their limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(9) We operate in two reportable segments; Refining and Logistics. Our operations that are not included in the Refining and Logistics segments are included in Corporate. As of September 30, 2015, the Refining segment includes the operations of our oil refineries and related facilities in Delaware City, Delaware, Paulsboro, New Jersey and Toledo, Ohio. The Logistics segment includes the operations of PBF Logistics LP ("PBFX"), a growth-oriented master limited partnership which owns and operates logistics assets, currently consisting of the Delaware City Rail Terminal, the Toledo Truck Terminal, the DCR West Rack, the Toledo Storage Facility and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack. The Logistics segment's results include financial information of the predecessor of PBFX for periods presented prior to May 13, 2014, and the financial information of PBFX for periods beginning on or after May 14, 2014, the completion date of the PBFX initial public offering ("PBFX Offering"). Prior to the PBFX Offering, the DCR West Rack acquisition, the Toledo Storage Facility acquisition and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack acquisition, PBFX's assets were operated within the refining operations of PBF Energy's Delaware City and Toledo refineries. The assets did not generate third party or intra-entity revenue, other than certain intra-entity revenue recognized by the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack, and were not considered to be a separate reportable segment. All intercompany transactions are eliminated in our consolidated financial statements and are included in Eliminations, as applicable.

(11) Gross refining margin and gross refining margin per barrel of throughput are non-GAAP measures because they exclude refinery operating expenses, refinery depreciation and amortization and gross margin of PBFX. Gross refining margin per barrel is gross refining margin, divided by total crude and feedstocks throughput. We believe they are important measures of operating performance and they provide useful information to investors because gross refining margin per barrel is a better metric comparison to the industry refining margin benchmarks shown in the Market Indicators Tables, as the industry benchmarks do not include a charge for refinery operating expenses and depreciation. Other companies in our industry may not calculate gross refining margin and gross refining margin per barrel in the same manner. Although we believe that non-GAAP financial measures excluding the impact of special items provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the results and performance of our business and allow for more useful period-over-period comparisons, such non-GAAP measures should only be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
