CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements”, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”), of expected future developments that involve risks and uncertainties. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that relate to our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results or to our strategies, objectives, intentions, resources and expectations regarding future industry trends are forward-looking statements made under the safe harbor provisions of the PSLRA except to the extent such statements relate to the operations of a partnership or limited liability company. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, which we refer to as “cautionary statements,” are disclosed under “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 of PBF Energy, which we refer to as our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the PBF LLC financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with PBF Logistics LP’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on March 13, 2018 by PBFX Logistics LP, and in our other filings with the SEC. All forward-looking information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. Some of the factors that we believe could affect our results include:

•supply, demand, prices and other market conditions for our products, including volatility in commodity prices;

•the effects of competition in our markets;

•changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates and capital costs;

•adverse developments in our relationship with both our key employees and unionized employees;

•our ability to operate our businesses efficiently, manage capital expenditures and costs (including general and administrative expenses) and generate earnings and cash flow;

•our indebtedness;

•our supply and inventory intermediation arrangements expose us to counterparty credit and performance risk;

•termination of our Inventory Intermediation Agreements with J. Aron, which could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, as we would be required to finance our intermediate and refined products inventory covered by the agreements. Additionally, we are obligated to repurchase from J. Aron certain intermediates and finished products located at the Paulsboro and Delaware City refineries’ storage tanks upon termination of these agreements;

•restrictive covenants in our indebtedness that may adversely affect our operational flexibility;

•payments by PBF Energy to the current and former holders of PBF LLC Series A Units and PBF LLC Series B Units under our Tax Receivable Agreement (as defined in “Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies” of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) for certain tax benefits we may claim;

•our assumptions regarding payments arising under PBF Energy’s Tax Receivable Agreement and other arrangements relating to our organizational structure are subject to change due to various factors, including,

3

among other factors, the timing of exchanges of PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of our Class A common stock as contemplated by the Tax Receivable Agreement, the price of our Class A common stock at the time of such exchanges, the extent to which such exchanges are taxable, and the amount and timing of our income;

•our expectations and timing with respect to our acquisition activity and whether such acquisitions are accretive or dilutive to shareholders;

•our expectations with respect to our capital improvement and turnaround projects;

•the status of an air permit to transfer crude through the Delaware City refinery’s dock;

•the impact of disruptions to crude or feedstock supply to any of our refineries, including disruptions due to problems at PBFX or with third party logistics infrastructure or operations, including pipeline, marine and rail transportation;

•the possibility that we might reduce or not make further dividend payments;

•the inability of our subsidiaries to freely pay dividends or make distributions to us;

•the impact of current and future laws, rulings and governmental regulations, including the implementation of rules and regulations regarding transportation of crude oil by rail;

•the impact of the newly enacted federal income tax legislation on our business;

•the effectiveness of our crude oil sourcing strategies, including our crude by rail strategy and related commitments;

•adverse impacts related to legislation by the federal government lifting the restrictions on exporting U.S. crude oil;

•adverse impacts from changes in our regulatory environment, such as the effects of compliance with the California Global Warming Solutions Act (also referred to as “AB32”), or from actions taken by environmental interest groups;

•market risks related to the volatility in the price of Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”) required to comply with the Renewable Fuel Standards and greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emission credits required to comply with various GHG emission programs, such as AB32;

•our ability to successfully integrate recently completed acquisitions into our business and realize the benefits from such acquisitions;

•liabilities arising from recent acquisitions that are unforeseen or exceed our expectations;

•risk associated with the operation of PBFX as a separate, publicly-traded entity;

•potential tax consequences related to our investment in PBFX; and

•any decisions we continue to make with respect to our energy-related logistical assets that may be transferred to PBFX.

We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors may not contain all of the material factors that are important to you. In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not in fact occur. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on those statements.

Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing.

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of the Business

PBF Energy Inc. (“PBF Energy”) was formed as a Delaware corporation on November 7, 2011 and is the sole managing member of PBF Energy Company LLC (“PBF LLC”), a Delaware limited liability company, with a controlling interest in PBF LLC and its subsidiaries. PBF Energy consolidates the financial results of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries and records a noncontrolling interest in its consolidated financial statements representing the economic interests of PBF LLC’s members other than PBF Energy.

PBF LLC, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, owns and operates oil refineries and related facilities in North America. PBF Holding Company LLC (“PBF Holding”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBF LLC. PBF Investments LLC (“PBF Investments”), Toledo Refining Company LLC (“Toledo Refining” or “TRC”), Paulsboro Refining Company LLC (“Paulsboro Refining” or “PRC”), Delaware City Refining Company LLC (“Delaware City Refining” or “DCR”), Chalmette Refining, L.L.C. (“Chalmette Refining”), PBF Western Region LLC (“PBF Western Region”), Torrance Refining Company LLC (“Torrance Refining”) and Torrance Logistics Company LLC are PBF LLC’s principal operating subsidiaries and are all wholly-owned subsidiaries of PBF Holding. Discussions or areas of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that either apply only to PBF Energy or PBF LLC are clearly noted in such footnotes.

As of June 30, 2018, PBF LLC also holds a 43.9% limited partner interest and all of the incentive distribution rights in PBF Logistics LP (“PBFX”), a publicly traded master limited partnership (refer to “Note 3 - PBF Logistics LP”). PBF Logistics GP LLC (“PBF GP”) owns the noneconomic general partner interest and serves as the general partner of PBFX and is wholly-owned by PBF LLC. PBF Energy, through its ownership of PBF LLC, consolidates the financial results of PBFX and its subsidiaries and records a noncontrolling interest in its consolidated financial statements representing the economic interests of PBFX’s unit holders other than PBF LLC. Collectively, PBF Energy and its consolidated subsidiaries, including PBF LLC, PBF Holding, PBF GP and PBFX are referred to hereinafter as the “Company” unless the context otherwise requires.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company owns 113,850,959 PBF LLC Series C Units and the Company’s current and former executive officers and directors and certain employees and others beneficially own 1,206,325 PBF LLC Series A Units. As of June 30, 2018, the holders of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock have 99.0% of the voting power in the Company and the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy through their holdings of Class B common stock have the remaining 1.0% of the voting power in the Company.

Substantially all of the Company’s operations are in the United States. The Company operates in two reportable business segments: Refining and Logistics. The Company’s oil refineries are all engaged in the refining of crude oil and other feedstocks into petroleum products, and are aggregated into the Refining segment. PBFX is a publicly traded master limited partnership that was formed to operate logistical assets such as crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, and storage facilities. PBFX’s operations are aggregated into the Logistics segment. To generate earnings and cash flows from operations, the Company is primarily dependent upon processing crude oil and selling refined petroleum products at margins sufficient to cover fixed and variable costs and other expenses. Crude oil and refined petroleum products are commodities; and factors largely out of the Company’s control can cause prices to vary over time. The potential margin volatility can have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, earnings and cash flow.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the PBF Energy financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the PBF LLC financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on March 13, 2018 by PBF Logistics LP. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Change in Presentation

In 2017, the Company determined that it would revise the presentation of certain line items on its consolidated statements of operations to enhance its disclosure under the requirements of Rule 5-03 of Regulation S-X. The revised presentation is comprised of the inclusion of a subtotal within costs and expenses referred to as “Cost of sales” and the reclassification of total depreciation and amortization expense between such amounts attributable to cost of sales and other operating costs and expenses. The amount of depreciation and amortization expense that is presented separately within the “Cost of Sales” subtotal represents depreciation and amortization of refining and logistics assets that are integral to the refinery production process.

The historical comparative information has been revised to conform to the current presentation. This revised presentation does not have an effect on the Company’s historical consolidated income from operations or net income, nor does it have any impact on its consolidated balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income or statements of cash flows. Presented below is a summary of the effects of this revised presentation on PBF Energy’s historical statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017:

(1) Amounts disclosed include the retrospective adjustments recorded as part of the adoption of ASU 2017-07, as defined below under “Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance”.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 (Topic 606) “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” (“ASC 606”). ASC 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605 “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC 605”), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted ASC 606 as of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method. See “Note 2 - Revenues” for further details.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, “Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” (“ASU 2017-07”), which provides guidance to improve the reporting of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement and on the components eligible for capitalization in assets. Under the new guidance, employers will present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in assets. Additionally, under this guidance, employers will present the other non-service components of the net periodic benefit cost separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income, if one is presented. Employers will apply the guidance on the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement retrospectively. The guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost in assets to the service cost component will be applied prospectively. The guidance includes a practical expedient allowing entities to estimate amounts for comparative periods using the information previously disclosed in their pension and other postretirement benefit plan note to the financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 effective January 1, 2018 and applied the new guidance retrospectively in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded income of $277 and $555, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded expense of $101 and $202, respectively. These income and expenses have been recorded within Other income (expense) for the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost that were historically recorded within Operating expenses and General and administrative expenses.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”), which provides guidance to increase clarity and reduce both diversity

17

PBF ENERGY INC. AND PBF ENERGY COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

in practice and cost and complexity when applying the existing accounting guidance on changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 require an entity to account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (i) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified; (ii) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified; and (iii) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance in ASU 2017-09 should be applied prospectively. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not materially impact its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), to increase the transparency and comparability about leases among entities. Additional ASUs have been issued subsequent to ASU 2016-02 to provide additional clarification and implementation guidance for leases related to ASU 2016-02 related to, among other things, the application of certain practical expedients, the rate implicit in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments (collectively, the Company refers to ASU 2016-02 and these additional ASUs as the “Updated Lease Guidance”). The Updated Lease Guidance requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a corresponding lease asset for virtually all lease contracts. It also requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. The Updated Lease Guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. While early adoption is permitted, the Company will not early adopt the Updated Lease Guidance. The Company has established a working group to study and lead the implementation of the Updated Lease Guidance and has instituted a task plan designed to meet the requirements and implementation deadline. The Company has also evaluated and purchased a lease software system, completed software design and configuration of the system, and begun testing the implementation of the selected system. The working group continues to evaluate the impact of the Updated Lease Guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and the impact on its business processes and controls. While the assessment of this standard is ongoing, the Company has identified that the most significant impacts of the Updated Lease Guidance will be to bring nearly all leases on its balance sheet with “right of use assets” and “lease obligation liabilities” as well as accelerating recognition of the interest expense component of financing leases. The new standard will also require additional disclosures for financing and operating leases.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” (“ASU 2017-12”). The amendments in ASU 2017-12 more closely align the results of cash flow and fair value hedge accounting with risk management activities through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results in the financial statements. The amendments in ASU 2017-12 address specific limitations in current GAAP by expanding hedge accounting for both nonfinancial and financial risk components and by refining the measurement of hedge results to better reflect an entity’s hedging strategies. Thus, the amendments in ASU 2017-12 will enable an entity to better portray the economic results of hedging activities for certain fair value and cash flow hedges and will avoid mismatches in earnings by allowing for greater precision when measuring changes in fair value of the hedged item for certain fair value hedges. Additionally, by aligning the timing of recognition of hedge results with the earnings effect of the hedged item for cash flow and net investment hedges, and by including the earnings effect of the hedging instrument in the same income statement line item in which the earnings effect of the hedged item is presented, the results of an entity’s hedging program and the cost of executing that program will be more visible to users of financial statements. The guidance in ASU 2017-12 concerning amendments to cash flow and net investment hedge relationships that exist on the date of adoption should be applied using a modified retrospective approach (i.e., with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the initial application date). The guidance in ASU 2017-12 also provides transition relief to make it easier for entities to apply certain amendments to existing hedges (including fair value hedges) where

18

PBF ENERGY INC. AND PBF ENERGY COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

the hedge documentation needs to be modified. The presentation and disclosure requirements of ASU 2017-12 should be applied prospectively. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Targeted Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Under ASU 2018-07, the existing employee guidance for share-based payments will apply to nonemployee share-based transactions (as long as the transaction is not effectively a form of financing), with the exception of specific guidance related to the attribution of compensation cost. The cost of nonemployee awards will continue to be recorded as if the grantor had paid cash for the goods or services. In addition, the contractual term will be able to be used in lieu of an expected term in the option-pricing model for nonemployee awards. ASU 2018-07 also specifies the following: (i) that equity-classified share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees will now be measured on the grant date, instead of the previous requirement to re-measure the awards through the performance completion date; (ii) for performance conditions, compensation cost associated with the award will be recognized when achievement of the performance condition is probable, rather than upon achievement of the performance condition; (iii) the current requirement to reassess the classification (equity or liability) for nonemployee awards upon vesting will be eliminated, except for awards in the form of convertible instruments. Finally, ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that any share-based payment awards issued to customers should be evaluated under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, an entity should only re-measure liability-classified awards that have not been settled by the date of adoption and equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Upon transition, the entity is required to measure these nonemployee awards at fair value as of the adoption date. The entity must not re-measure assets that are completed. Disclosures required at transition include the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle and, if applicable, quantitative information about the cumulative effect of the change on retained earnings or other components of equity. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2. REVENUES

Adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

Prior to January 1, 2018, the Company recognized revenue from customers when all of the following criteria were met:  (i) persuasive evidence of an exchange arrangement existed, (ii) delivery had occurred or services had been rendered, (iii) the buyer’s price was fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability was reasonably assured. Amounts billed in advance of the period in which the service was rendered or product delivered were recorded as deferred revenue. 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policy for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers as detailed below.

The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method, which has been applied for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. The Company has applied ASC 606 only to those contracts that were not complete as of January 1, 2018. As such, the financial information for prior periods has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605. The Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment upon initially applying ASC 606 as there was not a significant impact upon adoption; however, the details of significant qualitative

and quantitative disclosure changes upon implementing ASC 606 are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

As noted in “Note 15 - Segment Information”, the Company’s business consists of the Refining Segment and Logistics Segment. The following table provides information relating to the Company’s revenues for each product or group of similar products or services by segment for the periods presented:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2018			2017
Refining Segment:
Gasoline and distillates	$	6,341,757		$	4,154,375
Feedstocks and other	404,197			310,951
Asphalt and blackoils	397,203			287,731
Chemicals	202,552			179,076
Lubricants	94,761			81,118
Total	7,440,470			5,013,251
Logistics Segment:
Logistics	67,398			62,329
Total revenue prior to eliminations	7,507,868			5,075,580
Eliminations of intercompany revenue	(63,785		)	(58,355		)
Total Revenues	$	7,444,083		$	5,017,225
	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018			2017
Refining Segment:
Gasoline and distillates	$	11,336,077		$	8,243,186
Asphalt and blackoils	706,064			472,859
Feedstocks and other	642,906			535,361
Chemicals	378,660			363,499
Lubricants	176,364			148,544
Total	13,240,071			9,763,449
Logistics Segment:
Logistics	131,437			122,806
Total revenue prior to eliminations	13,371,508			9,886,255
Eliminations of intercompany revenue	(124,649		)	(114,557		)
Total Revenues	$	13,246,859		$	9,771,698

The majority of the Company’s revenues are generated from the sale of refined petroleum products reported in the Refining segment. These revenues are largely based on the current spot (market) prices of the products sold, which represent consideration specifically allocable to the products being sold on a given day, and the Company recognizes those revenues upon delivery and transfer of title to the products to our customers. The time at which delivery and

20

PBF ENERGY INC. AND PBF ENERGY COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

transfer of title occurs is the point when the Company’s control of the products is transferred to the Company’s customers and when their performance obligation to their customers is fulfilled. Delivery and transfer in title are specifically agreed to between the Company and customers within the contracts. The Refining segment also has contracts which contain fixed pricing, tiered pricing, minimum volume features with makeup periods, or other factors that have not materially been affected by ASC 606.

Logistics segment revenue is generated by charging fees for crude oil and refined products terminaling, storing and pipeline services based on the greater of contractual minimum volume commitments, as applicable, or the delivery of actual volumes transferred based on contractual rates applied to throughput volumes. A majority of the Company’s logistics revenues are generated between intercompany transactions and are eliminated on consolidation.

Deferred Revenues

The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments are received or are due in advance of our performance, including amounts which are refundable. Deferred revenue was $4,809 and $8,933 as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The decrease in the deferred revenue balance for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily driven by the timing and extent of cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations for the comparative periods.

Our payment terms vary by the type and location of our customer and the products offered. The period between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant (i.e. generally within two months). For certain products or services and customer types, we require payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

Significant Judgment and Practical Expedients

For performance obligations related to sales of products, the Company has determined that customers are able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the benefits from, the products at the point in time that the products are delivered. The Company has determined that the transfer of control upon delivery to the customer’s requested destination accurately depicts the transfer of goods. Upon the delivery of the products and transfer of control, the Company generally has the present right to payment and the customers bear the risks and rewards of ownership of the products. We have elected the practical expedient to not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

3. PBF LOGISTICS LP

PBFX is a fee-based, growth-oriented, publicly traded Delaware master limited partnership formed by PBF Energy to own or lease, operate, develop and acquire crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, storage facilities and similar logistics assets. PBFX engages in the receiving, handling, storage and transferring of crude oil, refined products, natural gas and intermediates from sources located throughout the United States and Canada for PBF Energy in support of its refineries, as well as for third party customers. As of June 30, 2018, a substantial majority of PBFX’s revenue is derived from long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with PBF Holding, which include minimum volume commitments for receiving, handling, storing and transferring crude oil, refined products and natural gas. PBF Energy also has agreements with PBFX that establish fees for certain general and administrative services and operational and maintenance services provided by PBF Holding to PBFX. These transactions, other than those with third parties, are eliminated by PBF Energy and PBF LLC in consolidation.

PBFX, a variable interest entity, is consolidated by PBF Energy through its ownership of PBF LLC. PBF LLC, through its ownership of PBF GP, has the sole ability to direct the activities of PBFX that most significantly impact its economic performance. PBF LLC is considered to be the primary beneficiary of PBFX for accounting purposes.

As of June 30, 2018, PBF LLC holds a 43.9% limited partner interest in PBFX consisting of 18,459,497 common units, with the remaining 56.1% limited partner interest held by public unit holders. PBF LLC also owns all of the incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) and indirectly owns a non-economic general partner interest in PBFX through

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

its wholly-owned subsidiary, PBF GP, the general partner of PBFX. The IDRs entitle PBF LLC to receive increasing percentages, up to a maximum of 50.0%, of the cash PBFX distributes from operating surplus in excess of $0.345 per unit per quarter.

Knoxville Terminals Purchase

On April 16, 2018, PBFX completed the purchase of two refined product terminals located in Knoxville, Tennessee, which include product tanks, pipeline connections to the Colonial and Plantation pipeline systems and truck loading facilities (the “Knoxville Terminals”) from Cummins Terminals, Inc. for total cash consideration of approximately $58,000, excluding working capital adjustments (the “Knoxville Terminals Purchase”). The transaction was financed through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility.

the Company’s storage tanks under the Inventory Intermediation Agreements, with any change in the market price being recorded in Cost of products and other.

The Company is subject to obligations to purchase Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”) required to comply with the Renewable Fuels Standard. The Company’s overall RINs obligation is based on a percentage of domestic shipments of on-road fuels as established by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). To the degree the Company is unable to blend the required amount of biofuels to satisfy its RINs obligation, RINs must be purchased on the open market to avoid penalties and fines. The Company records its RINs obligation on a net basis in Accrued expenses when its RINs liability is greater than the amount of RINs earned and purchased in a given period and in Prepaid and other current assets when the amount of RINs earned and purchased is greater than the RINs liability. In addition, the Company is subject to obligations to comply with federal and state legislative and regulatory measures, including regulations in the state of California pursuant to Assembly Bill 32 (“AB32”), to address environmental compliance and greenhouse gas and other emissions. These requirements include incremental costs to operate and maintain our facilities as well as to implement and manage new emission controls and programs. Renewable energy credit and emissions obligations fluctuate with the volume of applicable product sales and timing of credit purchases.

7. DEBT

2018 Revolving Credit Agreement

On May 2, 2018, PBF Holding and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, as borrowers or subsidiary guarantors, replaced its existing asset-based revolving credit agreement dated as of August 15, 2014 (the “August 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement”) with a new asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “2018 Revolving Credit Agreement"). The 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement has a maximum commitment of $3,400,000, a maturity date of May 2023 and redefines certain components of the Borrowing Base (as defined in the credit agreement) to make more funding available for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin (all as defined in the credit agreement). The Applicable Margin ranges from 0.25% to 1.00% for Alternative Base Rate Loans and from 1.25% to 2.00% for Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case depending on our corporate credit rating. In addition, an accordion feature allows for commitments of up to $3,500,000. The LC Participation Fee ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s corporate credit rating and the Fronting Fee is capped at 0.25%. The 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants by PBF Holding and the other borrowers, as well as customary events of default and indemnification obligations.

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there was $350,000 and $350,000, respectively, outstanding under the revolving credit agreements.

PBFX Revolving Credit Facility

On July 30, 2018, PBFX entered into an amended and restated revolving credit facility (the “PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility”), that among other things extends the maturity date from May 2019 to July 2023. Refer to Note 17 “Subsequent Events” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

9. INCOME TAXES

PBF Energy files federal and applicable state corporate income tax returns and recognizes income taxes on its pre-tax income, which to-date has consisted primarily of its share of PBF LLC’s pre-tax income (approximately 99.0% as of June 30, 2018 and approximately 96.7% as of December 31, 2017). PBF LLC is organized as a limited liability company and PBFX is a master limited partnership, both of which are treated as “flow-through” entities for federal income tax purposes and therefore are not subject to income taxes apart from the income tax attributable to the two subsidiaries acquired in connection with the acquisition of Chalmette Refining and PBF Holding’s wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, PBF Ltd, that are treated as C-Corporations for income tax purposes.

The income tax expense (benefit) in the PBF Energy condensed consolidated financial statements of operations consists of the following: 

	Three Months Ended   June 30,					Six Months Ended   June 30,
	2018		2017			2018		2017
Current income tax expense	$	669	$	901		$	752	$	1,374
Deferred income tax expense (benefit)	94,876		(72,944		)	105,735		(92,464		)
Total income tax expense (benefit)	$	95,545	$	(72,043	)	$	106,487	$	(91,090	)

Income tax expense (benefit) is based on income (loss) before taxes attributable to PBF Energy and excludes income before taxes attributable to noncontrolling interests as such interests are generally not subject to income taxes except as noted above. The difference between PBF Energy’s effective income tax rate and the United States statutory rate is reconciled below:

	Three Months Ended   June 30,				Six Months Ended   June 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Provision at Federal statutory rate	21.0	%	35.0	%	21.0	%	35.0	%
Increase (decrease) attributable to flow-through of certain tax adjustments:
State income taxes (net of federal income tax)	5.6	%	4.8	%	5.6	%	4.7	%
Nondeductible/nontaxable items	0.1	%	(0.9	)%	0.1	%	(0.7	)%
Rate differential from foreign jurisdictions	(0.2	)%	1.0	%	(0.2	)%	0.9	%
Foreign tax rate change	—	%	—	%	—	%	(0.4	)%
Other	(0.5	)%	(0.3	)%	(0.5	)%	(0.2	)%
Effective tax rate	26.0	%	39.6	%	26.0	%	39.3	%

PBF Energy’s effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, including the impact of income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $15,534 and $26,979, respectively, was 24.9% and 24.4%, respectively. PBF Energy’s effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, including the impact of income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $5,512 and $16,559, respectively, was 40.9% and 42.3% respectively.

The decrease in effective tax rate when comparing the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 to the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017 is primarily driven by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), which was effective as of January 1, 2018. The TCJA significantly revised the U.S. tax code by, among other things, lowering the corporate income tax rate from 35.0% to 21.0%. In connection with the enactment of the TCJA, PBF Energy recorded a net tax expense of $20,153 in the year ending December 31, 2017. It is the Company’s expectation

29

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

that the other legislative areas within TCJA, such as the Transition Tax and the Global Low-Taxed Intangible Income, will not have a material impact on the provision for income taxes.

The income tax expense (benefit) in the PBF LLC condensed consolidated financial statements of operations consists of the following:

	Three Months Ended   June 30,					Six Months Ended   June 30,
	2018			2017		2018			2017
Current income tax (benefit) expense	$	(26	)	$	737	$	(31	)	$	1,209
Deferred income tax (benefit) expense	(3,957		)	5,161		(4,653		)	5,123
Total income tax (benefit) expense	$	(3,983	)	$	5,898	$	(4,684	)	$	6,332

The Company has determined there are no material uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2018. The Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Environmental Matters

The Company’s refineries, pipelines and related operations are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, those relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or that otherwise relate to the protection of the environment, waste management and the characteristics and the compositions of fuels. Compliance with existing and anticipated laws and regulations can increase the overall cost of operating the refineries, including remediation, operating costs and capital costs to construct, maintain and upgrade equipment and facilities.

In connection with the Paulsboro refinery acquisition, the Company assumed certain environmental remediation obligations. The Paulsboro environmental liability of $11,448 recorded as of June 30, 2018 ($10,282 as of December 31, 2017) represents the present value of expected future costs discounted at a rate of 8.0%. The current portion of the environmental liability is recorded in Accrued expenses and the non-current portion is recorded in Other long-term liabilities. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, this liability is self-guaranteed by the Company.

In connection with the acquisition of the Delaware City assets, Valero Energy Corporation (“Valero”) remains responsible for certain pre-acquisition environmental obligations up to $20,000 and the predecessor to Valero in ownership of the refinery retains other historical obligations.

In connection with the acquisition of the Delaware City assets and the Paulsboro refinery, the Company and Valero purchased ten year, $75,000 environmental insurance policies to insure against unknown environmental liabilities at each site. In connection with the Toledo refinery acquisition, Sunoco, Inc. (R&M) remains responsible for environmental remediation for conditions that existed on the closing date for twenty years from March 1, 2011, subject to certain limitations.

In connection with the acquisition of the Chalmette refinery, the Company obtained $3,936 in financial assurance (in the form of a surety bond) to cover estimated potential site remediation costs associated with an agreed to Administrative Order of Consent with the EPA. The estimated cost assumes remedial activities will continue for a minimum of thirty years. Further, in connection with the acquisition of the Chalmette refinery, the Company purchased a ten year, $100,000 environmental insurance policy to insure against unknown environmental liabilities at the refinery. At the time the Company acquired Chalmette refinery it was subject to a Consolidated Compliance Order and Notice of Potential Penalty (the “Order”) issued by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (“LDEQ”) covering deviations from 2009 and 2010. Chalmette Refining and LDEQ subsequently entered into a dispute resolution agreement to negotiate the resolution of deviations on or before December 31, 2014. On May

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

18, 2018 the Order was settled by LDEQ and the Chalmette refinery for an administrative penalty of $741, of which $100 has been paid in cash and the remainder has been or will be spent on beneficial environmental projects.

On December 28, 2016, DNREC issued a Coastal Zone Act permit (the “Ethanol Permit”) to DCR allowing the utilization of existing tanks and existing marine loading equipment at their existing facilities to enable denatured ethanol to be loaded from storage tanks to marine vessels and shipped to offsite facilities. On January 13, 2017, the issuance of the Ethanol Permit was appealed by two environmental groups. On February 27, 2017, the Coastal Zone Industrial Board (the “Coastal Zone Board”) held a public hearing and dismissed the appeal, determining that the appellants did not have standing. The appellants filed an appeal of the Coastal Zone Board’s decision with the Delaware Superior Court (the “Superior Court”) on March 30, 2017. On January 19, 2018, the Superior Court rendered an Opinion regarding the decision of the Coastal Zone Board to dismiss the appeal of the Ethanol Permit for the ethanol project. The Judge determined that the record created by the Coastal Zone Board was insufficient for the Superior Court to make a decision, and therefore remanded the case back to the Coastal Zone Board to address the deficiency in the record. Specifically, the Superior Court directed the Coastal Zone Board to address any evidence concerning whether the appellants’ claimed injuries would be affected by the increased quantity of ethanol shipments. During the hearing before the Coastal Zone Board on standing, one of the appellants’ witnesses made a reference to the flammability of ethanol, without any indication of the significance of flammability/ explosivity to specific concerns. Moreover, the appellants did not introduce at hearing any evidence of the relative flammability of ethanol as compared to other materials shipped to and from the refinery. However, the sole dissenting opinion from the Coastal Zone Board focused on the flammability/explosivity issue, alleging that the appellants’ testimony raised the issue as a distinct basis for potential harms. Once the Board responds to the remand, it will go back to the Superior Court to complete its analysis and issue a decision.

At the time the Company acquired the Toledo refinery, the EPA had initiated an investigation into the compliance of the refinery with EPA standards governing flaring pursuant to Section 114 of the Clean Air Act. On February 1, 2013, the EPA issued an Amended Notice of Violation, and on September 20, 2013, the EPA issued a Notice of Violation and Finding of Violation to Toledo refinery, alleging certain violations of the Clean Air Act at its Plant 4 and Plant 9 flares since the acquisition of the refinery on March 1, 2011. Toledo refinery and the EPA subsequently entered into tolling agreements pending settlement discussions. Although the resolution has not been finalized, the civil administrative penalty is anticipated to be approximately $645 including supplemental environmental projects. To the extent the administrative penalty exceeds such amount, it is not expected to be material to the Company.

In connection with the acquisition of the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets, the Company assumed certain pre-existing environmental liabilities totaling $133,928 as of June 30, 2018 ($136,487 as of December 31, 2017), related to certain environmental remediation obligations to address existing soil and groundwater contamination and monitoring activities and other clean-up activities, which reflects the current estimated cost of the remediation obligations. The current portion of the environmental liability is recorded in Accrued expenses and the non-current portion is recorded in Other long-term liabilities. In addition, in connection with the acquisition of the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets, the Company purchased a ten year, $100,000 environmental insurance policy to insure against unknown environmental liabilities. Furthermore, in connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed responsibility for certain specified environmental matters that occurred prior to the Company’s ownership of the refinery and the logistics assets, including specified incidents and/or notices of violations (“NOVs”) issued by regulatory agencies in various years before the Company’s ownership, including the Southern California Air Quality Management District (“SCAQMD”) and the Division of Occupational Safety and Health of the State of California (“Cal/OSHA”).

Subsequent to the acquisition, further NOVs were issued by the SCAQMD, Cal/OSHA, the City of Torrance, the City of Torrance Fire Department, and the Los Angeles County Sanitation District related to alleged operational violations, emission discharges and/or flaring incidents at the refinery and the logistics assets both before and after the Company’s acquisition. EPA in November 2016 conducted a Risk Management Plan (“RMP”) inspection following the acquisition related to Torrance operations and issued preliminary findings in March 2017 concerning RMP potential operational violations. EPA and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) in December 2016 conducted a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) inspection following the

31

PBF ENERGY INC. AND PBF ENERGY COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

acquisition related to Torrance operations and also issued in March 2017 preliminary findings concerning RCRA potential operational violations. In April 2017, EPA referred the RCRA preliminary findings to DTSC for final resolution. On March 1, 2018, the Company received a notice of intent to sue from Environmental Integrity Project, on behalf of Environment California, under RCRA with respect to the alleged violations from EPA’s and DTSC’s December 2016 inspection. On March 2, 2018, DTSC issued an order to correct alleged RCRA violations relating to the accumulation of oil bearing materials in roll off bins during 2016 and 2017. On June 14, 2018, the Torrance refinery and DTSC reached settlement regarding the oil bearing materials in the form of a stipulation and order, wherein the Torrance refinery agreed that it would recycle or properly dispose of the oil bearing materials by the end of 2018 and pay an administrative penalty of $150. Following this settlement, in June 2018, DTSC referred the remaining alleged RCRA violations from EPA’s and DTSC’s December 2016 inspection to the California Attorney General for final resolution. The Torrance refinery and the California Attorney General are in discussions to resolve these remaining alleged RCRA violations. Other than the $150 DTSC administrative penalty, no other settlement or penalty demands have been received to date with respect to any of the other NOVs, preliminary findings, or order that are in excess of $100. As the ultimate outcomes are uncertain, the Company cannot currently estimate the final amount or timing of their resolution but any such amount is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, individually or in the aggregate.

In connection with the PBFX Plains Asset Purchase, PBFX is responsible for the environmental remediation costs for conditions that existed on the closing date up to a maximum of $250 per year for ten years, with Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. remaining responsible for any and all additional costs above such amounts during such period. The environmental liability of $1,668 recorded as of June 30, 2018 ($1,923 as of December 31, 2017) represents the present value of expected future costs discounted at a rate of 1.83%. The current portion of the environmental liability is recorded in Accrued expenses and the non-current portion is recorded in Other long-term liabilities.

Applicable Federal and State Regulatory Requirements

The Company’s operations and many of the products it manufactures are subject to certain specific requirements of the Clean Air Act (the “CAA”) and related state and local regulations. The CAA contains provisions that require capital expenditures for the installation of certain air pollution control devices at the Company’s refineries. Subsequent rule making authorized by the CAA or similar laws or new agency interpretations of existing rules, may necessitate additional expenditures in future years.

In 2010, New York State adopted a Low-Sulfur Heating Oil mandate that, beginning July 1, 2012, requires all heating oil sold in New York State to contain no more than 15 parts per million (“PPM”) sulfur. Since July 1, 2012, other states in the Northeast market began requiring heating oil sold in their state to contain no more than 15 PPM sulfur. Currently, all of the Northeastern states and Washington DC have adopted sulfur controls on heating oil. Most of the Northeastern states will now require heating oil with 15 PPM or less sulfur by July 1, 2018 (except for Pennsylvania and Maryland - where less than 500 PPM sulfur is required). All of the heating oil the Company currently produces meets these specifications. The mandate and other requirements do not currently have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The EPA issued the final Tier 3 Gasoline standards on March 3, 2014 under the CAA. This final rule establishes more stringent vehicle emission standards and further reduces the sulfur content of gasoline starting in January 2017. The new standard is set at 10 PPM sulfur in gasoline on an annual average basis starting January 1, 2017, with a credit trading program to provide compliance flexibility. The EPA responded to industry comments on the proposed rule and maintained the per gallon sulfur cap on gasoline at the existing 80 PPM cap. The refineries are complying with these new requirements as planned, either directly or using flexibility provided by sulfur credits generated or purchased in advance as an economic optimization. The standards set by the new rule are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is required to comply with the Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) implemented by the EPA, which sets annual quotas for the quantity of renewable fuels (such as ethanol) that must be blended into motor fuels

32

PBF ENERGY INC. AND PBF ENERGY COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

consumed in the United States. In July 2018, the EPA issued proposed amendments to the RFS program regulations that would establish annual percentage standards for cellulosic biofuel, biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuel, and renewable fuels that would apply to all gasoline and diesel produced in the U.S. or imported in the year 2019. In addition, the separate proposal includes a proposed biomass-based diesel applicable volume for 2020. It is likely that RIN production will continue to be lower than needed forcing obligated parties, such as the Company, to purchase cellulosic waiver credits or purchase excess RINs from suppliers on the open market.

In addition, on December 1, 2015 the EPA finalized revisions to an existing air regulation concerning Maximum Achievable Control Technologies (“MACT”) for Petroleum Refineries. The regulation requires additional continuous monitoring systems for eligible process safety valves relieving to atmosphere, minimum flare gas heat (Btu) content, and delayed coke drum vent controls to be installed by January 30, 2019. In addition, a program for ambient fence line monitoring for benzene was implemented prior to the deadline of January 30, 2018. The Company is in the process of implementing the requirements of this regulation. The regulation does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The EPA published a Final Rule to the Clean Water Act (“CWA”) Section 316(b) in August 2014 regarding cooling water intake structures, which includes requirements for petroleum refineries. The purpose of this rule is to prevent fish from being trapped against cooling water intake screens (impingement) and to prevent fish from being drawn through cooling water systems (entrainment). Facilities will be required to implement Best Technology Available (“BTA”) as soon as possible, but state agencies have the discretion to establish implementation time lines. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this regulation, and at this time does not anticipate it having a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As a result of the Torrance Acquisition, the Company is subject to greenhouse gas emission control regulations in the state of California pursuant to AB32. AB32 imposes a statewide cap on greenhouse gas emissions, including emissions from transportation fuels, with the aim of returning the state to 1990 emission levels by 2020. AB32 is implemented through two market mechanisms including the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (“LCFS”) and Cap and Trade, which was extended for an additional ten years to 2030 in July 2017. The Company is responsible for the AB32 obligations related to the Torrance refinery beginning on July 1, 2016 and must purchase emission credits to comply with these obligations. Additionally, in September 2016, the state of California enacted Senate Bill 32 (“SB32”) which further reduces greenhouse gas emissions targets to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030.

However, subsequent to the acquisition, the Company is recovering the majority of these costs from its customers, and as such does not expect this obligation to materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. To the degree there are unfavorable changes to AB32 or SB32 regulations or the Company is unable to recover such compliance costs from customers, these regulations could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

The Company is subject to obligations to purchase RINs. On February 15, 2017, the Company received a notification that EPA records indicated that PBF Holding used potentially invalid RINs that were in fact verified under the EPA’s RIN Quality Assurance Program (“QAP”) by an independent auditor as QAP A RINs. Under the regulations, use of potentially invalid QAP A RINs provided the user with an affirmative defense from civil penalties provided certain conditions are met. The Company has asserted the affirmative defense and if accepted by the EPA will not be required to replace these RINs and will not be subject to civil penalties under the program. It is reasonably possible that the EPA will not accept the Company’s defense and may assess penalties in these matters but any such amount is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As of January 1, 2011, the Company is required to comply with the EPA’s Control of Hazardous Air Pollutants From Mobile Sources, or MSAT2, regulations on gasoline that impose reductions in the benzene content of its produced gasoline. The Company purchases benzene credits to meet these requirements. The Company’s planned capital projects will reduce the amount of benzene credits that it needs to purchase. In addition, the renewable fuel standards mandate the blending of prescribed percentages of renewable fuels (e.g., ethanol and biofuels) into the Company’s produced gasoline and diesel. These new requirements, other requirements of the CAA and other

33

PBF ENERGY INC. AND PBF ENERGY COMPANY LLC

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

presently existing or future environmental regulations may cause the Company to make substantial capital expenditures as well as the purchase of credits at significant cost, to enable its refineries to produce products that meet applicable requirements.

The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), also known as “Superfund,” imposes liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons who are considered to be responsible for the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include the current or former owner or operator of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and companies that disposed of or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances. Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to joint and several liability for investigation and the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment, for damages to natural resources and for the costs of certain health studies. As discussed more fully above, certain of the Company’s sites are subject to these laws and the Company may be held liable for investigation and remediation costs or claims for natural resource damages. It is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by hazardous substances or other pollutants released into the environment. Analogous state laws impose similar responsibilities and liabilities on responsible parties. In the Company’s current normal operations, it has generated waste, some of which falls within the statutory definition of a “hazardous substance” and some of which may have been disposed of at sites that may require cleanup under Superfund.

The Company is also currently subject to certain other existing environmental claims and proceedings. The Company believes that there is only a remote possibility that future costs related to any of these other known contingent liability exposures would have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

PBF LLC Limited Liability Company Agreement

The holders of limited liability company interests in PBF LLC, including PBF Energy, generally have to include for purposes of calculating their U.S. federal, state and local income taxes their share of any taxable income of PBF LLC, regardless of whether such holders receive cash distributions from PBF LLC. PBF Energy ultimately may not receive cash distributions from PBF LLC equal to its share of such taxable income or even equal to the actual tax due with respect to that income. For example, PBF LLC is required to include in taxable income PBF LLC’s allocable share of PBFX’s taxable income and gains (such share to be determined pursuant to the partnership agreement of PBFX), regardless of the amount of cash distributions received by PBF LLC from PBFX, and such taxable income and gains will flow-through to PBF Energy to the extent of its allocable share of the taxable income of PBF LLC. As a result, at certain times, the amount of cash otherwise ultimately available to PBF Energy on account of its indirect interest in PBFX may not be sufficient for PBF Energy to pay the amount of taxes it will owe on account of its indirect interests in PBFX.

Taxable income of PBF LLC generally is allocated to the holders of PBF LLC units (including PBF Energy) pro-rata in accordance with their respective share of the net profits and net losses of PBF LLC. In general, PBF LLC is required to make periodic tax distributions to the members of PBF LLC, including PBF Energy, pro-rata in accordance with their respective percentage interests for such period (as determined under the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of PBF LLC), subject to available cash and applicable law and contractual restrictions (including pursuant to our debt instruments) and based on certain assumptions. Generally, these tax distributions are required to be in an amount equal to our estimate of the taxable income of PBF LLC for the year multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate prescribed for an individual or corporate resident in New York, New York (taking into account the nondeductibility of certain expenses). If, with respect to any given calendar year, the aggregate periodic tax distributions were less than the actual taxable income of PBF LLC multiplied by the assumed tax rate, PBF LLC is required to make a “true up” tax distribution, no later than March 15 of the following year, equal to such difference, subject to the available cash and borrowings of PBF LLC. PBF LLC generally obtains funding to pay its tax distributions by causing PBF Holding to distribute cash to PBF LLC and from distributions it receives from PBFX.

Tax Receivable Agreement

PBF Energy entered into a tax receivable agreement with the PBF LLC Series A and PBF LLC Series B Unit holders (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”) that provides for the payment by PBF Energy to such persons of an amount equal to 85% of the amount of the benefits, if any, that PBF Energy is deemed to realize as a result of (i) increases in tax basis, as described below, and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. For purposes of the Tax Receivable Agreement, the benefits deemed realized by PBF Energy will be computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of PBF Energy (calculated with certain assumptions) to the amount of such taxes that PBF Energy would have been required to pay had there been no increase to the tax basis of the assets of PBF LLC as a result of purchases or exchanges of PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy’s Class A common stock and had PBF Energy not entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement. The term of the Tax Receivable Agreement will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless: (i) PBF Energy exercises its right to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement, (ii) PBF Energy breaches any of its material obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement or (iii) certain changes of control occur, in which case all obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will generally be accelerated and due as calculated under certain assumptions.

The payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement are obligations of PBF Energy and not of PBF LLC, PBF Holding or PBFX. In general, PBF Energy expects to obtain funding for these annual payments from PBF LLC, primarily through tax distributions, which PBF LLC makes on a pro-rata basis to its owners. Such owners include PBF Energy, which holds a 99.0% interest in PBF LLC as of June 30, 2018 (96.7% as of December 31, 2017). PBF LLC generally obtains funding to pay its tax distributions by causing PBF Holding to distribute cash to PBF LLC and from distributions it receives from PBFX.

As of June 30, 2018, PBF Energy has recognized a liability for the Tax Receivable Agreement of $391,156 ($362,142 as of December 31, 2017) reflecting the estimate of the undiscounted amounts that the Company expects to pay under the agreement.

11. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

With respect to dividends and distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2018, PBF LLC made aggregate non-tax quarterly distributions of $68,517, or $0.30 per unit to its members, of which $67,155 was distributed pro-rata to PBF Energy and the balance was distributed to its other members. PBF Energy used this $67,155 to pay quarterly cash dividends of $0.30 per share of Class A common stock on March 14, 2018 and May 30, 2018.

With respect to distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2018, PBFX paid a distribution on outstanding common units of $0.485 per unit on March 14, 2018 and $0.490 per unit on May 30, 2018, of which $23,689 was distributed to PBF LLC and the balance was distributed to its public unit holders.

13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The tables below present information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the inputs utilized to determine the fair values as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

We have elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty; however, fair value amounts by hierarchy level are presented on a gross basis in the tables below. We have posted cash margin with various counterparties to support hedging and trading activities. The cash margin posted is required by counterparties as collateral deposits and cannot be offset against the fair value of open contracts except in the event of default. We have no derivative contracts that are subject to master netting arrangements that are reflected gross on the balance sheet.

The valuation methods used to measure financial instruments at fair value are as follows:

• Money market funds categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value based on quoted market prices and included within Cash and cash equivalents.

• The commodity contracts categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value based on quoted prices in an active market. The commodity contracts categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value using a market approach based upon future commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets.

• The commodity contracts categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy consist of commodity price swap contracts that relate to forecasted purchases of crude oil for which quoted forward market prices are not readily available due to market illiquidity. The forward prices used to value these swaps were derived using broker quotes, prices from other third party sources and other available market based data.

• The derivatives included with inventory intermediation agreement obligations and the catalyst lease obligations are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured at fair value using a market approach based upon commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets.

Non-qualified pension plan assets are measured at fair value using a market approach based on published net asset values of mutual funds as a practical expedient. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, $9,464 and $9,593, respectively, were included within Deferred charges and other assets, net for these non-qualified pension plan assets.

The table below summarizes the changes in fair value measurements of commodity contracts categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

Long-term debt	$	2,214,042		$	2,320,985		$	2,175,042		$	2,286,291

(a) The estimated fair value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, was calculated based on the present value of future expected payments utilizing implied current market interest rates based on quoted prices of the 7.00% senior notes due 2023 and the 7.25% senior notes due 2025 (collectively, the “Senior Notes”), and the PBFX 6.875% senior notes due 2023 (the “PBFX 2023 Senior Notes”).

(b) The estimated fair value approximates carrying value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, as these borrowings bear interest based upon short-term floating market interest rates. As disclosed in Note 7, “Debt” and Note 17, “Subsequent Events”, on July 30, 2018, PBFX entered into the PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility, that among other things, extended the maturity date from May 2019 to July 2023. As such, the outstanding balance on the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2018 is classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

(c) Catalyst leases are valued using a market approach based upon commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets and are categorized as a Level 2 measurement. The Company has elected the fair value option for accounting for its catalyst lease repurchase obligations as the Company’s liability is directly impacted by the change in fair value of the underlying catalyst. During 2017, Delaware City Refining entered into two platinum bridge leases which were settled as of June 30, 2018 and the Company entered into a new platinum bridge lease, which will expire in the first quarter of 2019. The total outstanding balance related to these bridge leases as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $1,298 and $10,987, respectively, and is included in Current debt on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated balance sheet.

14. DERIVATIVES

The Company uses derivative instruments to mitigate certain exposures to commodity price risk. The Company entered into Inventory Intermediation Agreements that contain purchase obligations for certain volumes of intermediates and refined products. The purchase obligations related to intermediates and refined products under these agreements are derivative instruments that have been designated as fair value hedges in order to hedge the commodity price volatility of certain refinery inventory. The fair value of these purchase obligation derivatives is based on market prices of the underlying intermediates and refined products. The level of activity for these derivatives is based on the level of operating inventories.

PBF ENERGY INC. AND PBF ENERGY COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

As of June 30, 2018, there were 2,868,426 barrels of intermediates and refined products (3,000,142 barrels at December 31, 2017) outstanding under these derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges. These volumes represent the notional value of the contract.

The Company also enters into economic hedges primarily consisting of commodity derivative contracts that are not designated as hedges and are used to manage price volatility in certain crude oil and feedstock inventories as well as crude oil, feedstock, and refined product sales or purchases. The objective in entering into economic hedges is consistent with the objectives discussed above for fair value hedges. As of June 30, 2018, there were 22,752,000 barrels of crude oil and 5,293,000 barrels of refined products (22,348,000 and 1,989,000, respectively, as of December 31, 2017), outstanding under short and long term commodity derivative contracts not designated as hedges representing the notional value of the contracts.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s operations are organized into two reportable segments, Refining and Logistics. Operations that are not included in the Refining and Logistics segments are included in Corporate. Intersegment transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements and are included in Eliminations.

Refining

The Company’s Refining segment includes the operations of its five refineries, including certain related logistics assets that are not owned by PBFX. The Company’s refineries are located in Toledo, Ohio, Delaware City, Delaware, Paulsboro, New Jersey, New Orleans, Louisiana and Torrance, California. The refineries produce unbranded transportation fuels, heating oil, petrochemical feedstocks, lubricants and other petroleum products in the United States. The Company purchases crude oil, other feedstocks and blending components from various third-party suppliers. The Company sells products throughout the Northeast, Midwest, Gulf Coast and West Coast of the United States, as well as in other regions of the United States and Canada, and is able to ship products to other international destinations.

Logistics

The Company’s Logistics segment is comprised of PBFX, a publicly traded master limited partnership, formed to own or lease, operate, develop and acquire crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, storage facilities and similar logistics assets. PBFX’s assets primarily consist of rail and truck terminals and unloading racks, tank farms and pipelines that were acquired from or contributed by PBF LLC and are located at, or nearby, the Company’s refineries. PBFX provides various rail, truck and marine terminaling services, pipeline transportation services and storage services to PBF Holding and/or its subsidiaries and third party customers through fee-based commercial agreements. PBFX currently does not generate significant third party revenue and intersegment related-party revenues are eliminated in consolidation. From a PBF Energy and PBF LLC perspective, the Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the Logistics segment as a whole without regard to any of PBFX’s individual operating segments.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based primarily on income from operations. Income from operations includes those revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to management of the respective segment. The Logistics segment’s revenues include intersegment transactions with the Company’s Refining segment at prices the Company believes are substantially equivalent to the prices that could have been negotiated with unaffiliated parties with respect to similar services. Activities of the Company’s business that are not included in the two operating segments are included in Corporate. Such activities consist primarily of corporate staff operations and other items that are not specific to the normal operations of the two operating segments. The Company does not allocate non-operating income and expense items, including income taxes, to the individual segments. The Refinery segment’s operating subsidiaries and PBFX are primarily pass-through entities with respect to income taxes.

Total assets of each segment consist of property, plant and equipment, inventories, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables and other assets directly associated with the segment’s operations. Corporate assets consist primarily of deferred tax assets, property, plant and equipment and other assets not directly related to the Company’s refinery and logistic operations.

Disclosures regarding the Company’s reportable segments with reconciliations to consolidated totals for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 are presented below. In connection with the adoption of ASU 2017-07, the accompanying segment information has been retrospectively adjusted, for all periods presented, to reflect the reclassification of certain net periodic benefit costs from Operating expenses and General and administrative expenses to Other income (expense).

16. NET INCOME PER SHARE OF PBF ENERGY

The Company grants certain equity-based compensation awards to employees and non-employee directors that are considered to be participating securities. Due to the presence of participating securities, the Company has calculated net income per share of Class A common stock using the two-class method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share of Class A common stock attributable to PBF Energy:

	Three Months Ended   June 30,						Six Months Ended   June 30,
Basic Earnings Per Share:	2018			2017			2018			2017
Allocation of earnings:
Net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders	$	272,153		$	(109,663	)	$	302,519		$	(140,740	)

Income (loss) available to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders - basic	$	271,956		$	(109,932	)	$	302,121		$	(141,279	)
Denominator for basic net income per Class A common share - weighted average shares	112,875,813			108,779,992			111,853,774			108,770,237
Basic net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy per Class A common share	$	2.41		$	(1.01	)	$	2.70		$	(1.30	)
Diluted Earnings Per Share:

Plus: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest (1)	6,108			—			7,396			—
Less: Income tax expense on net income attributable to noncontrolling interest (1)	(1,613		)	—			(1,953		)	—
Numerator for diluted net income (loss) per Class A common share - net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders (1)	$	276,451		$	(109,932	)	$	307,564		$	(141,279	)

Diluted net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders per Class A common share	$	2.37		$	(1.01	)	$	2.66		$	(1.30	)
__________

(1) The diluted earnings per share calculation generally assumes the conversion of all outstanding PBF LLC Series A Units to Class A common stock of PBF Energy. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, the net income attributable to PBF Energy, used in the numerator of the diluted earnings per share calculation is adjusted to reflect the net income, as well as the corresponding income tax expense (based on a 26.4% estimated annualized statutory corporate tax rate) attributable to the converted units.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE, UNIT, PER SHARE, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

The potential conversion of 3,828,871 and 3,835,999 PBF LLC Series A Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, were excluded from the denominator in computing diluted net income per share because including them would have had an antidilutive effect. As the PBF LLC Series A Units were not included, the numerator used in the calculation of diluted net income per share was equal to the numerator used in the calculation of basic net income per share and does not include the net income and related income tax expense associated with the potential conversion of the PBF LLC Series A Units.

(2) Represents an adjustment to weighted-average diluted shares outstanding to assume the full exchange of common stock equivalents, including options and warrants for PBF LLC Series A Units and options for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock as calculated under the treasury stock method (to the extent the impact of such exchange would not be anti-dilutive). Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 12,500 and 233,250 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 7,278,142 and 7,278,142 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Dividend Declared

On August 2, 2018, PBF Energy announced a dividend of $0.30 per share on outstanding Class A common stock. The dividend is payable on August 30, 2018 to Class A common stockholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2018.

PBFX Distributions

On August 2, 2018, the Board of Directors of PBF GP announced a distribution of $0.495 per unit on outstanding common units of PBFX. The distribution is payable on August 30, 2018 to PBFX unitholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2018.

Registered Direct Offering

On July 16, 2018, the PBFX entered into a common unit purchase agreement with certain funds managed by Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C. providing for the issuance and sale in a registered direct offering of an aggregate of 1,775,750 common units for gross proceeds of approximately $35,000, which closed on July 30, 2018.

PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility

On July 30, 2018, PBFX amended and restated the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility dated May 14, 2014. Among other things, the PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility increases the maximum commitment available to PBFX from $360,000 to $500,000 and extends the maturity date to July 2023. The commitment fees on the unused portion, the interest rate on advances and the fees for letters of credit are consistent with the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility. The PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility contains representations, warranties and covenants by PBFX, as well as customary events of default and indemnification obligations that are consistent with, or more favorable to PBFX, than those in the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of PBF Energy Inc. included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, the audited PBF LLC financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on March 13, 2018 by PBF Logistics LP and the unaudited financial statements and related notes included in this report. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our future plans, estimates, beliefs and expected performance. Our actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated and expressed in such forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. We caution that assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions or beliefs about future events may, and often do, vary from actual results and the differences can be material. Please see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

PBF Energy is the sole managing member of, and owner of an equity interest representing approximately 99.0% of the outstanding economic interests in PBF LLC as of June 30, 2018. PBF LLC is a holding company for the companies that directly and indirectly own and operate our business. PBF Holding Company LLC (“PBF Holding”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBF LLC and PBF Finance Corporation (“PBF Finance”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBF Holding. As of June 30, 2018, PBF LLC also holds a 43.9% limited partner interest, a non-economic general partner interest and all of the incentive distribution rights in PBF Logistics LP (“PBFX” or the “Partnership”), a publicly traded master limited partnership.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to PBF Energy and its consolidated subsidiaries, including PBF LLC, PBF Holding and its subsidiaries and PBFX and its subsidiaries. Discussions or areas that either apply only to PBF Energy or PBF LLC are clearly noted in such sections.

Overview

We are one of the largest independent petroleum refiners and suppliers of unbranded transportation fuels, heating oil, petrochemical feedstocks, lubricants and other petroleum products in the United States. We sell our products throughout the Northeast, Midwest, Gulf Coast and West Coast of the United States, as well as in other regions of the United States, Canada and Mexico and are able to ship products to other international destinations. As of June 30, 2018, we own and operate five domestic oil refineries and related assets with a combined processing capacity, known as throughput, of approximately 900,000 barrels per day (“bpd”), and a weighted-average Nelson Complexity Index of 12.2. We operate in two reportable business segments: Refining and Logistics. Our five oil refineries are all engaged in the refining of crude oil and other feedstocks into petroleum products, and are aggregated into the Refining segment. PBFX operates certain logistical assets such as crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, and storage facilities, which are aggregated into the Logistics segment.

Our five refineries are located in Delaware City, Delaware, Paulsboro, New Jersey, Toledo, Ohio, New Orleans, Louisiana and Torrance, California. Each of these refineries is briefly described in the table below:

Refinery	Region	Nelson Complexity Index	Throughput Capacity (in barrels per day)	PADD	Crude Processed (1)	Source (1)
Delaware City	East Coast	11.3	190,000	1	light sweet through heavy sour	water, rail
Paulsboro	East Coast	13.2	180,000	1	light sweet through heavy sour	water
Toledo	Mid-Continent	9.2	170,000	2	light sweet	pipeline, truck, rail
Chalmette	Gulf Coast	12.7	189,000	3	light sweet through heavy sour	water, pipeline
Torrance	West Coast	14.9	155,000	5	medium and heavy	pipeline, water, truck

________

⁽¹⁾ Reflects the typical crude and feedstocks and related sources utilized under normal operating conditions and prevailing market environments.

As of June 30, 2018, PBF Energy owned 113,850,959 PBF LLC Series C Units and our current and former executive officers and directors and certain employees and others held 1,206,325 PBF LLC Series A Units (we refer to all of the holders of the PBF LLC Series A Units as “the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy”). As a result, the holders of our issued and outstanding shares of our Class A common stock have approximately 99.0% of the voting power in us, and the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy through their holdings of Class B common stock have approximately 1.0% of the voting power in us (96.7% and 3.3% as of December 31, 2017, respectively).

Factors Affecting Comparability Between Periods

Our results have been affected by the following events, the understanding of which will aid in assessing the comparability of our period to period financial performance and financial condition.

PBF Holding Revolving Credit Facility

On May 2, 2018, PBF Holding and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as borrowers or subsidiary guarantors, replaced our existing asset-based revolving credit agreement dated as of August 15, 2014 (the “August 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement”) with a new asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “2018 Revolving Loan"). Among other things, the 2018 Revolving Loan increases the maximum commitment available to PBF Holding from $2.6 billion to $3.4 billion, extends the maturity date to May 2023, and redefines certain components of the Borrowing Base, as defined in the credit agreement, to make more funding available for working capital and other general corporate purposes. In addition, an accordion feature allows for commitments of up to $3.5 billion. The commitment fees on the unused portion, the interest rate on advances and the fees for letters of credit are consistent with the August 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement.

Senior Notes Offerings

On May 30, 2017, PBF Holding and PBF Finance issued $725.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.25% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”). The Company used the net proceeds of $711.6 million to fund the cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) for any and all of its outstanding 8.25% senior secured notes due 2020 (the “2020 Senior Secured Notes”), to pay the related redemption price and accrued and unpaid interest for any 2020 Senior Secured Notes that remained outstanding after the completion of the Tender Offer, and for general corporate purposes. Upon the satisfaction and discharge of the 2020 Senior Secured Notes in connection with the closing of the Tender Offer and the redemption, the 7.00% senior notes due 2023 (the “2023 Senior Notes”) became unsecured and certain covenants were modified, as provided for in the indenture governing the 2023 Senior Notes and related documents.

On October 6, 2017, PBFX issued $175.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes” and, together with the initial PBFX 2023 Senior Notes, the “PBFX 2023 Senior Notes”). The new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes were issued at 102% of face value with an effective rate of 6.442% and were issued under the indenture governing the initial PBFX 2023 Senior Notes dated on May 12, 2015. PBFX used the net proceeds from the offering of the new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes to repay a portion of the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility and for general capital purposes. The new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes included a registration rights arrangement whereby the Company agreed to file with the SEC and use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate an offer to exchange the new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes for an issue of registered notes with terms substantially identical to the notes no later than 365 days after the date of the original issuance of the new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes. This registration statement was declared effective on April 2, 2018, and the exchange was consummated in May 2018.

49

Inventory Intermediation Agreements

On May 4, 2017 and September 8, 2017, we and our subsidiaries, DCR and PRC, entered into amendments to the inventory intermediation agreements (as amended, the "Inventory Intermediation Agreements") with J. Aron & Company, a subsidiary of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (“J. Aron”), pursuant to which certain terms of the existing inventory intermediation agreements were amended, including, among other things, pricing and an extension of the terms. As a result of the amendments (i) the Inventory Intermediation Agreement by and among J. Aron, PBF Holding and PRC relating to the Paulsboro refinery extends the term to December 31, 2019, which term may be further extended by mutual consent of the parties to December 31, 2020 and (ii) the Inventory Intermediation Agreement by and among J. Aron, PBF Holding and DCR relating to the Delaware City refinery extends the term to July 1, 2019, which term may be further extended by mutual consent of the parties to July 1, 2020.

PBFX Assets and Transactions

PBFX is a fee-based, growth-oriented, publicly traded Delaware master limited partnership formed by PBF Energy to own or lease, operate, develop and acquire crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, storage facilities and similar logistics assets. PBFX engages in the receiving, handling, storage and transferring of crude oil, refined products, natural gas and intermediates from sources located throughout the United States and Canada for PBF Energy in support of its refineries, as well as for third party customers. As of June 30, 2018, a substantial majority of PBFX’s revenue is derived from long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with PBF Holding, which include minimum volume commitments, for receiving, handling, storing and transferring crude oil, refined products and natural gas. PBF Energy also has agreements with PBFX that establish fees for certain general and administrative services and operational and maintenance services provided by PBF Holding to PBFX. These transactions, other than those with third parties, are eliminated by PBF Energy and PBF LLC in consolidation.

On February 15, 2017, PBFX entered into a contribution agreement (the “PNGPC Contribution Agreement”) between PBFX and PBF LLC, pursuant to which PBFX’s wholly owned subsidiary PBFX Operating Company LP (“PBFX Op Co”), acquired from PBF LLC all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of Paulsboro Natural Gas Pipeline Company LLC (“PNGPC”). PNGPC owns and operates an existing interstate natural gas pipeline. In August 2017, PBFX completed construction of a new 24" pipeline to replace the existing pipeline and commenced services.

On February 15, 2017, we entered into a ten-year storage services agreement with PBFX Op Co (the “Chalmette Storage Services Agreement”) under which PBFX, through PBFX Op Co, assumed construction of a new crude tank with a shell capacity of 625,000 barrels at PBF Holding’s Chalmette refinery (the “Chalmette Storage Tank”). The Chalmette Storage Tank commenced operations in November 2017 upon completion of construction.

On April 16, 2018, PBFX completed the purchase of two refined product terminals located in Knoxville, Tennessee, which include product tanks, pipeline connections to the Colonial and Plantation pipeline systems and truck loading facilities with nine loading bays (the “Knoxville Terminals”) from Cummins Terminals, Inc. for total cash consideration of approximately $58.0 million, excluding working capital adjustments (the “Knoxville Terminals Purchase”). The transaction was financed through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility.

On May 2, 2018, the Delaware City Rail Terminaling Services Agreement and the Delaware West Ladder Rack Terminaling Services Agreement between PBF Energy’s subsidiaries, Delaware City Terminaling Company LLC and PBF Holding were amended effective as of January 1, 2018 (collectively, the “Amended and Restated Rail Agreements”) with the service fees thereunder being adjusted, including the addition of an ancillary fee paid by PBF Holding on an actual cost basis. In determining payments due under the Amended and Restated Rail Agreements, excess volumes throughput under the agreements shall apply against required payments in respect to the minimum throughput commitments on a quarterly basis and, to the extent not previously applied, on an annual basis against the minimum volume commitments.

Change in Presentation

As discussed in “Note 1 - Description of Business and Basis of Presentation” of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in 2017 we determined that we would revise the presentation of certain line items on our historical consolidated statements of operations to enhance our disclosure under the requirements of Rule 5-03 of Regulation S-X. The revised presentation is comprised of the inclusion of a subtotal within operating costs and expenses referred to as “Cost of sales” and the reclassification of total depreciation and amortization expense between such amounts attributable to cost of sales and other operating costs and expenses. The amount of depreciation and amortization expense that is presented separately within the “Cost of Sales” subtotal represents depreciation and amortization of refining and logistics assets that are integral to the refinery production process.

The historical comparative information has been revised to conform to the current presentation. This revised presentation does not have an effect on our historical consolidated income from operations or net income, nor does it have any impact on our consolidated balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income or statements of cash flows.

51

Results of Operations

The tables below reflect our consolidated financial and operating highlights for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 (amounts in thousands, except per share data). Differences between the results of operations between PBF Energy and PBF LLC pertain to income tax expense, interest expense and non-controlling interest as shown below. Earnings per share information applies only to the financial results of PBF Energy. We operate in two reportable business segments: Refining and Logistics. Our oil refineries, excluding the assets owned by PBFX, are all engaged in the refining of crude oil and other feedstocks into petroleum products, and are aggregated into the Refining segment. PBFX is a publicly traded master limited partnership that operates certain logistical assets such as crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines and storage facilities. PBFX’s operations are aggregated into the Logistics segment. We do not separately discuss our results by individual segments as our Logistics segment does not currently generate significant third party revenue and a significant portion of its operating results eliminate in consolidation.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2017

Overview— Net income was $287.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to net loss of $104.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. PBF LLC net income was $385.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to net loss of $183.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Net income attributable to PBF Energy was $272.2 million or $2.37 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 ($2.37 per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net income, or $1.38 per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net income excluding special items, as described below in Non-GAAP Financial Measures) compared to net loss attributable to PBF Energy of $109.7 million, or $(1.01) per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 ($(1.01) per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net loss, or $(0.06) per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net loss excluding special items, as described below in Non-GAAP Financial Measures). The net income or loss attributable to PBF Energy represents PBF Energy’s equity interest in PBF LLC’s pre-tax income, less applicable income tax (benefit) expense. PBF Energy’s weighted-average equity interest in PBF LLC was 98.4% and 96.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Our results for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were positively impacted by a non-cash special item consisting of a pre-tax lower of cost or market (“LCM”) inventory adjustment of approximately $158.0 million, or $116.3 million net of tax. Our results for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were negatively impacted by pre-tax LCM inventory adjustment of approximately $151.1 million, or $91.6 million net of tax and pre-tax debt

56

extinguishment costs related to the early retirement of our 2020 Senior Secured Notes of $25.5 million, or $15.4 million net of tax. The LCM inventory adjustments were recorded due to movements in the price of crude oil and refined products in the periods presented.

Excluding the impact of these special items, our results were positively impacted by strong crack spreads, particularly in the Mid-Continent, favorable movements in crude differentials and higher overall throughput volumes and barrels sold across our refineries as a result of all five refineries operating without significant turnarounds or major maintenance during the quarter. In particular, we benefited significantly from favorable results at our Torrance refinery, which continues to experience operational improvements due to the capital investments made since our acquisition. Our results in the current period were negatively impacted by higher general and administrative costs and increased depreciation and amortization expense.

Revenues— Revenues totaled $7.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $5.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $2.4 billion, or 48.4%. Revenues per barrel were $80.39 and $61.30 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, an increase of 31.1% directly related to higher hydrocarbon commodity prices. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the total throughput rates at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 359,900 bpd, 152,900 bpd, 188,500 bpd and 165,300 bpd, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the total throughput rates at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 326,100 bpd, 154,600 bpd, 191,300 bpd and 97,200 bpd, respectively. The throughput rates at our East Coast and West Coast refineries were higher in the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017. Throughput rates at our Mid-Continent and Gulf Coast refineries were in line with the same quarter of the prior year. The throughput rates at our East Coast refineries increased due to planned downtime at our Delaware City refinery during 2017. The throughput rates at our West Coast refinery increased due to planned downtime in 2017 related to its first significant turnaround under our ownership, which was completed early in the third quarter of 2017. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the total barrels sold at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 401,100 bpd, 162,900 bpd, 250,000 bpd and 203,600 bpd, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the total barrels sold at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 369,000 bpd, 161,500 bpd, 237,700 bpd and 131,200 bpd, respectively. Total refined product barrels sold were higher than throughput rates, reflecting sales from inventory as well as sales and purchases of refined products outside the refinery.

Consolidated Gross Margin— Consolidated gross margin totaled $484.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $(63.9) million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $548.0 million. Gross refining margin (as described below in Non-GAAP Financial Measures) totaled $928.3 million, or $11.77 per barrel of throughput ($770.3 million or $9.77 per barrel of throughput excluding the impact of special items), for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $350.4 million, or $5.01 per barrel of throughput ($501.5 million or $7.17 per barrel of throughput excluding the impact of special items), for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $577.9 million, or $268.8 million excluding special items.

Consolidated gross margin and gross refining margin increased due to overall higher throughput volumes and generally favorable movements in crude differentials and certain crack spreads. We experienced increased gross refining margin contributions of $155.4 million, or $116.1 million excluding special items, from our Torrance refinery following its first significant turnaround under our ownership, which was completed early in the third quarter of 2017. In addition, consolidated gross margin and gross refining margin were positively impacted by a non-cash LCM inventory adjustment of approximately $158.0 million on a net basis resulting from an increase in crude oil and refined product prices in comparison to the prices at the end of the first quarter of 2018. The non-cash LCM inventory adjustment decreased consolidated gross margin and gross refining margin by approximately $151.1 million on a net basis in the second quarter of 2017. Additionally, our results continue to be impacted by significant costs to comply with the Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”). Total RFS costs were $39.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 in comparison to $74.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

57

Average industry refining margins in the Mid-Continent were significantly stronger during the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The WTI (Chicago) 4-3-1 industry crack spread was $17.56 per barrel, or 24.6% higher, in the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $14.09 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Our refinery specific crude slate in the Mid-Continent was impacted by an improving WTI/Bakken differential, which was 30.0% higher in the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $0.30 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Additionally, the WTI/Syncrude differential averaged a discount of $2.98 per barrel during the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to a premium of $1.35 per barrel in the same period of 2017.

On the East Coast, the Dated Brent (NYH) 2-1-1 industry crack spread was approximately $14.96 per barrel, or 1.0% higher, in the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $14.81 per barrel in the same period in 2017. The Dated Brent/Maya differential was $4.40 higher in the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017 and the Dated Brent/WTI differential was $4.82 higher in the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017.

Gulf Coast industry refining margins improved during the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The LLS (Gulf Coast) 2-1-1 industry crack spread was $13.52 per barrel, or 7.6% higher, in the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $12.56 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Crude differentials weakened with the WTI/LLS differential averaging a premium of $5.12 per barrel during the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to a premium of $2.06 per barrel in the same period of 2017.

Additionally, West Coast industry refining margins slightly decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The ANS (West Coast) 4-3-1 industry crack spread was $18.70 per barrel, or 2.4% lower, in the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $19.16 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Crude differentials weakened with the WTI/ANS differential averaging a premium of $5.91 per barrel during the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to a premium of $2.50 per barrel in the same period of 2017.

Favorable movements in these benchmark crude differentials typically result in lower crude costs and positively impact our earnings while reductions in these benchmark crude differentials typically result in higher crude costs and negatively impact our earnings.

Operating Expenses— Operating expenses totaled $417.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $412.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $4.9 million, or 1.2%. Of the total $417.7 million of operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018, $402.8 million or $5.11 per barrel of throughput, related to expenses incurred by the Refining segment, while the remaining $14.9 million related to expenses incurred by the Logistics segment ($398.5 million, or $5.69 per barrel, and $14.3 million of operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 related to the Refining and Logistics segments, respectively). The nominal increase in operating expenses was driven by higher energy and utility costs driven by higher throughput across our system, partially offset by a decrease in maintenance and supply costs as a result of increased system reliability and our focused efforts on reducing operating costs at our Chalmette and Torrance refineries. Operating expenses related to our Logistics segment were generally consistent with the prior year and consist of costs related to the operation and maintenance of PBFX’s assets.

General and Administrative Expenses— General and administrative expenses totaled $58.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $41.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $17.6 million or 42.9%. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 in comparison to the three months ended June 30, 2017 primarily related to higher employee related expenses, including incentive compensation and retirement benefits. Our general and administrative expenses are comprised of the personnel, facilities and other infrastructure costs necessary to support our refineries and related logistical assets.

58

Loss on Sale of Assets— There was a loss of $0.6 million on the sale of assets for the three months ended June 30, 2018 relating to the sale of non-operating refinery assets. There was a de minimis loss on the sale of non-operating refinery assets for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense— Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $92.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 (including $89.7 million recorded within Cost of sales) compared to $68.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 (including $62.7 million recorded within Cost of sales), an increase of $23.6 million. The increase was a result of additional depreciation expense associated with a general increase in our fixed asset base due to capital projects and turnarounds completed since the second quarter of 2017 which included the first significant Torrance refinery turnaround under our ownership.

Change in Fair Value of Catalyst Leases— Change in the fair value of catalyst leases represented a gain of $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to a gain of $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. These gains relate to the change in value of the precious metals underlying the sale and leaseback of our refineries’ precious metals catalyst, which we are obligated to repurchase at fair market value on the lease termination dates.

Debt extinguishment costs— Debt extinguishment costs of $25.5 million incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2017 relate to nonrecurring charges associated with debt refinancing activity calculated based on the difference between the carrying value of the 2020 Senior Secured Notes on the date that they were reacquired and the amount for which they were reacquired. There were no such costs in the same period of 2018.

Interest Expense, net— PBF Energy interest expense totaled $43.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $40.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $2.8 million. This net increase is mainly attributable to the interest costs associated with the issuance of the new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes on October 6, 2017. Interest expense includes interest on long-term debt including the PBFX credit facilities, costs related to the sale and leaseback of our precious metals catalyst, financing costs associated with the Inventory Intermediation Agreements with J. Aron, letter of credit fees associated with the purchase of certain crude oils and the amortization of deferred financing costs. PBF LLC interest expense totaled $45.5 million and $42.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively (inclusive of $2.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of incremental interest expense on the affiliate notes payable with PBF Energy that eliminates in consolidation at the PBF Energy level).

Income Tax Expense— PBF LLC is organized as a limited liability company and PBFX is a master limited partnership, both of which are treated as “flow-through” entities for federal income tax purposes and therefore are not subject to income tax. However, two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining and the Canadian subsidiary of PBF Holding are treated as C-Corporations for income tax purposes and may incur income taxes with respect to their earnings, as applicable. The members of PBF LLC are required to include their proportionate share of PBF LLC’s taxable income or loss, which includes PBF LLC’s allocable share of PBFX’s pre-tax income or loss, on their respective tax returns. PBF LLC generally makes distributions to its members, per the terms of PBF LLC’s amended and restated limited liability company agreement, related to such taxes on a pro-rata basis. PBF Energy recognizes an income tax expense or benefit in our consolidated financial statements based on PBF Energy’s allocable share of PBF LLC’s pre-tax income or loss, which was approximately 98.4% and 96.6%, on a weighted-average basis for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. PBF Energy’s condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any benefit or provision for income taxes on the pre-tax income or loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests in PBF LLC or PBFX (although, as described above, PBF LLC must make tax distributions to all its members on a pro-rata basis). PBF Energy’s effective tax rate, excluding the impact of noncontrolling interest, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was 26.0% and 39.6%, respectively, reflecting tax adjustments for discrete items and the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) which, among other things, reduced the U.S federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%.

Noncontrolling Interest— PBF Energy is the sole managing member of, and has a controlling interest in, PBF LLC. As the sole managing member of PBF LLC, PBF Energy operates and controls all of the business and affairs of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries. PBF Energy consolidates the financial results of PBF LLC and its

59

subsidiaries, including PBFX. With respect to the consolidation of PBF LLC, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in PBF LLC held by members other than PBF Energy, with respect to the consolidation of PBFX, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interests in PBFX held by the public unit holders of PBFX, and with respect to the consolidation of PBF Holding, the Company records a 20% noncontrolling interest for the ownership interests in two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining held by a third party. The total noncontrolling interest on the condensed consolidated statements of operations represents the portion of the Company’s earnings or loss attributable to the economic interests held by members of PBF Energy other than PBF Energy, by the public common unit holders of PBFX and by the third party stockholder of the two Chalmette Refining subsidiaries. The total noncontrolling interest on the balance sheet represents the portion of the Company’s net assets attributable to the economic interests held by the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy, by the public common unit holders of PBFX and by the third party stockholder of the two Chalmette Refining subsidiaries. PBF Energy’s weighted-average equity noncontrolling interest ownership percentage in PBF LLC for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was approximately 1.6% and 3.4%, respectively. The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest on our condensed consolidated balance sheet attributable to the noncontrolling interest is not equal to the noncontrolling interest ownership percentage due to the effect of income taxes and related agreements that pertain solely to PBF Energy.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017

Overview— PBF Energy net income was $329.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to a net loss of $124.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. PBF LLC net income was $437.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to a net loss of $225.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Net income attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders was $302.5 million, or $2.66 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 ($2.66 per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net income, or $1.10 per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net income excluding special items, as described below in Non-GAAP Financial Measures) compared to a net loss attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders of $140.7 million, or $(1.30) per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 ($(1.30) per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net loss, or $(0.26) per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis based on adjusted fully-converted net loss excluding special items, as described below in Non-GAAP Financial Measures). The net income or loss attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders represents PBF Energy’s equity interest in PBF LLC’s pre-tax income (loss), less applicable income tax (benefit) expense. PBF Energy’s weighted-average equity interest in PBF LLC was 97.6% and 96.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Our results for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were positively impacted by a non-cash special item consisting of a pre-tax LCM inventory adjustment of approximately $245.7 million, or $180.8 million net of tax. Our results for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were negatively impacted by a pre-tax LCM inventory adjustment of approximately $167.1 million, or $101.4 million net of tax and pre-tax debt extinguishment costs related to the early retirement of our 2020 Senior Secured Notes of $25.5 million, or $15.4 million net of tax. The LCM inventory adjustments were recorded due to movements in the price of crude oil and refined products in the periods presented.

Excluding the impact of these special items, our results were positively impacted by strong crack spreads, favorable movements in crude differentials, higher overall throughput volumes and increases in barrels sold across our refineries. In particular we benefited significantly from favorable results at our Torrance refinery, which continues to experience operational improvements, including reduced operating expenses, due to the capital investments made since our acquisition. Our results in the current period were negatively impacted by higher general and administrative costs and increased interest and depreciation and amortization expense.

Revenues— Revenues totaled $13.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $9.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $3.5 billion, or 35.6%. Revenues per barrel were $76.53 and $61.62 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, an increase of 24.2% directly related to higher hydrocarbon commodity prices. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the total throughput rates at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 346,500 bpd, 138,000 bpd, 178,900 bpd and 169,900 bpd, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017,

60

the total throughput rates at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 323,200 bpd, 139,300 bpd, 173,600 bpd and 117,600 bpd, respectively. The throughput rates at our East Coast, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries were higher in the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 generally due to improved market conditions and turnaround activity timing. Throughput rates at our Mid-Continent refinery were in line with the prior year. The throughput rates at our East Coast refineries increased due to planned downtime at our Delaware City refinery during 2017. The throughput rates at our West Coast refinery increased due to planned downtime in the prior year as part of the first significant turnaround of the refinery under our ownership and improved refinery performance experienced in the current year. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the total barrels sold at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 378,000 bpd, 149,300 bpd, 232,400 bpd and 196,700 bpd, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the total barrels sold at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 357,100 bpd, 157,200 bpd, 215,800 bpd and 146,000 bpd, respectively. Total refined product barrels sold were higher than throughput rates, reflecting sales from inventory as well as sales and purchases of refined products outside the refinery.

Consolidated Gross Margin— Consolidated gross margin totaled $645.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $(16.7) million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $662.0 million. Gross refining margin (as described below in Non-GAAP Financial Measures) totaled $1,538.3 million, or $10.20 per barrel of throughput ($1,292.7 million or $8.57 per barrel of throughput excluding the impact of special items), for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $848.9 million, or $6.22 per barrel of throughput ($1,016.0 million or $7.45 per barrel of throughput excluding the impact of special items), for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $689.5 million, or $276.7 million excluding special items.

Consolidated gross margin and gross refining margin increased due to generally favorable movements in crude differentials, higher crack spreads and overall higher throughput volumes experienced across our refineries. We also experienced increased gross refining margin contributions of $229.8 million, or $157.4 million excluding special items, from our Torrance refinery following its first significant turnaround under our ownership, which was completed early in the third quarter of 2017. In addition, consolidated gross margin and gross refining margin were positively impacted by a non-cash LCM inventory adjustment of approximately $245.7 million on a net basis resulting from an increase in crude oil and refined product prices in comparison to the prices at the end of 2017. The non-cash LCM inventory adjustment decreased consolidated gross margin and gross refining margin by approximately $167.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Additionally, our results continue to be impacted by significant costs to comply with RFS. Total RFS costs were $83.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 in comparison to $119.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Average industry refining margins in the Mid-Continent were stronger during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The WTI (Chicago) 4-3-1 industry crack spread was $14.74 per barrel, or 16.5% higher, in the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $12.65 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Our refinery specific crude slate in the Mid-Continent was impacted by an improving WTI/Bakken differential, which was 14.8% higher in the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $0.61 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Additionally, the WTI/Syncrude differential averaged a discount of $1.69 per barrel during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to a premium of $1.81 per barrel in the same period of 2017.

On the East Coast, the Dated Brent (NYH) 2-1-1 industry crack spread was approximately $13.90 per barrel, or 5.2% higher in the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $13.21 per barrel in the same period in 2017. The Dated Brent/Maya differential was $3.44 higher in the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The Dated Brent/WTI differential was $3.50 higher in the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017, and the WTI/Bakken differential was approximately $0.09 per barrel higher in the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017.

Gulf Coast industry refining margins improved during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The LLS (Gulf Coast) 2-1-1 industry crack spread was $13.19 per barrel, or 7.2% higher, in the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $12.30 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Crude

61

differentials weakened with the WTI/LLS differential averaging a premium of $4.06 per barrel during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to a premium of $1.88 per barrel in the same period of 2017.

Additionally, West Coast industry refining margins slightly decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. The ANS (West Coast) 4-3-1 industry crack spread was $17.59 per barrel, or 1.5% lower, in the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $17.85 per barrel in the same period in 2017. Crude differentials weakened with the WTI/ANS differential averaging a premium of $5.12 per barrel during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to a premium of $2.31 per barrel in the same period of 2017.

Favorable movements in these benchmark crude differentials typically result in lower crude costs and positively impact our earnings while reductions in these benchmark crude differentials typically result in higher crude costs and negatively impact our earnings.

Operating Expenses— Operating expenses totaled $843.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $864.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of approximately $20.2 million, or 2.3%. Of the total $843.8 million of operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018, $814.2 million or $5.40 per barrel of throughput, related to expenses incurred by the Refining segment, while the remaining $29.6 million related to expenses incurred by the Logistics segment ($835.3 million or $6.12 per barrel, and $28.8 million of operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 related to the Refining and Logistics segments, respectively). The decrease in operating expenses was driven by increased system reliability, and our focused efforts on reducing operating costs at our Chalmette and Torrance refineries, which lowered maintenance costs. Additionally, there was a decrease in supplies and materials due to our Torrance refinery experiencing higher costs in 2017 related to its turnaround. These decreases were partially offset by higher energy and utility costs as a result of increased throughput. Operating expenses related to our Logistics segment were generally consistent with the prior year and consist of costs related to the operation and maintenance of PBFX’s assets.

General and Administrative Expenses— General and administrative expenses totaled $121.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $84.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $36.6 million or 43.1%. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 in comparison to the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily related to higher employee related expenses, including incentive compensation and retirement benefits. Our general and administrative expenses are comprised of the personnel, facilities and other infrastructure costs necessary to support our refineries and related logistical assets.

Loss on Sale of Assets— There was a loss of $0.7 million and a loss of $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, related to the sale of non-operating refinery assets.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense— Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $178.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 (including $173.0 million recorded within Cost of sales) compared to $129.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 (including $121.9 million recorded within Cost of sales), an increase of approximately $48.7 million. The increase was a result of additional depreciation expense associated with a general increase in our fixed asset base due to capital projects and turnarounds completed since the second quarter of 2017, which included the first significant Torrance refinery turnaround under our ownership.

Change in Fair Value of Catalyst Leases— Change in the fair value of catalyst leases represented a gain of $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to a loss of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. These gains and losses relate to the change in value of the precious metals underlying the sale and leaseback of our refineries’ precious metals catalyst, which we are obligated to repurchase at fair market value on the lease termination dates.

Debt extinguishment costs— Debt extinguishment costs of $25.5 million incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2017 relate to nonrecurring charges associated with debt refinancing activity calculated based on the

62

difference between the carrying value of the 2020 Senior Secured Notes on the date that they were reacquired and the amount for which they were reacquired. There were no such costs in the same period of 2018.

Interest Expense, net— PBF Energy interest expense totaled $86.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $77.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of approximately $8.8 million.This net increase is mainly attributable to the interest costs associated with the issuance of the new PBFX 2023 Senior Notes on October 6, 2017. Interest expense includes interest on long-term debt including the PBFX credit facilities, costs related to the sale and leaseback of our precious metals catalyst, financing costs associated with the Inventory Intermediation Agreements with J. Aron, letter of credit fees associated with the purchase of certain crude oils and the amortization of deferred financing costs. PBF LLC interest expense totaled $90.6 million and $82.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively (inclusive of $4.0 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of incremental interest expense on the affiliate notes payable with PBF Energy that eliminates in consolidation at the PBF Energy level).

Income Tax Expense— PBF LLC is organized as a limited liability company and PBFX is a master limited partnership, both of which are treated as “flow-through” entities for federal income tax purposes and therefore are not subject to income tax. However, two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining and our Canadian subsidiary of PBF Holding are treated as C-Corporations for income tax purposes and may incur income taxes with respect to their earnings, as applicable. The members of PBF LLC are required to include their proportionate share of PBF LLC’s taxable income or loss, which includes PBF LLC’s allocable share of PBFX’s pre-tax income or loss, on their respective tax returns. PBF LLC generally makes distributions to its members, per the terms of PBF LLC’s amended and restated limited liability company agreement, related to such taxes on a pro-rata basis. PBF Energy recognizes an income tax expense or benefit in our consolidated financial statements based on PBF Energy’s allocable share of PBF LLC’s pre-tax income or loss, which was approximately 97.6% and 96.6%, on a weighted-average basis for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. PBF Energy’s condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any benefit or provision for income taxes on the pre-tax income or loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests in PBF LLC or PBFX (although, as described above, PBF LLC must make tax distributions to all its members on a pro-rata basis). PBF Energy’s effective tax rate, excluding the impact of noncontrolling interest, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was 26.0% and 39.3%, respectively, reflecting tax adjustments for discrete items and the impact of the TCJA which, among other things, reduced the U.S federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%.

Noncontrolling Interest— PBF Energy is the sole managing member of, and has a controlling interest in, PBF LLC. As the sole managing member of PBF LLC, PBF Energy operates and controls all of the business and affairs of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries. PBF Energy consolidates the financial results of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries, including PBFX. With respect to the consolidation of PBF LLC, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in PBF LLC held by members other than PBF Energy, and with respect to the consolidation of PBFX, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interests in PBFX held by the public unit holders of PBFX, and with respect to the consolidation of PBF Holding, the Company records a 20% noncontrolling interest for the ownership interests in two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining held by a third party. The total noncontrolling interest on the condensed consolidated statements of operations represents the portion of the Company’s earnings or loss attributable to the economic interests held by members of PBF Energy other than PBF Energy and the public common unit holders of PBFX and by the third party stockholders of the two Chalmette Refining subsidiaries. The total noncontrolling interest on the balance sheet represents the portion of the Company’s net assets attributable to the economic interests held by the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy, by the public common unit holders of PBFX and by the third party stockholders of the two Chalmette Refining subsidiaries. PBF Energy’s weighted-average equity noncontrolling interest ownership percentage in PBF LLC for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was approximately 2.4% and 3.4%, respectively. The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest on our condensed consolidated balance sheet attributable to the noncontrolling interest is not equal to the noncontrolling interest ownership percentage due to the effect of income taxes and related agreements that pertain solely to PBF Energy.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses certain financial measures to evaluate our operating performance that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP (“Non-GAAP”). These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. Such Non-GAAP financial measures are presented only in the context of PBF Energy’s results and are not presented or discussed in respect to PBF LLC.

Special Items

The Non-GAAP measures presented include Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income excluding special items, EBITDA excluding special items and gross refining margin excluding special items. Special items for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 relate to an LCM inventory adjustment and special items for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 relate to an LCM inventory adjustment and debt extinguishment costs (as further explained in “Notes to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below). 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 helpful 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.

Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) Excluding Special Items

PBF Energy utilizes results presented on an Adjusted Fully-Converted basis that reflects an assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of Class A common stock of PBF Energy. In addition, we present results on an Adjusted Fully-Converted basis excluding special items as described above. We believe that these Adjusted Fully-Converted measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare PBF Energy results across different periods and to facilitate an understanding of our operating results. Neither Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) nor Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) excluding special items should be considered an alternative to net income (loss) presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) excluding special items presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation, since each company may define these terms differently. The differences between Adjusted Fully-Converted and GAAP results are as follows:

1. Assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock. As a result of the assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units, the noncontrolling interest related to these units is converted to controlling interest. Management believes that it is useful to provide the per-share effect associated with the assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units.

2. Income Taxes. Prior to PBF Energy’s initial public offering (“IPO”), PBF Energy was organized as a limited liability company treated as a “flow-through” entity for income tax purposes, and even after PBF Energy’s IPO, not all of its earnings are subject to corporate-level income taxes. Adjustments have been made to the Adjusted Fully-Converted tax provisions and earnings to assume that PBF Energy had adopted its post-IPO corporate tax structure for all periods presented and is taxed as a C-corporation in the U.S. at the prevailing corporate rates. These assumptions are consistent with the assumption in clause 1 above that all PBF LLC Series A Units are exchanged for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock, as the assumed exchange would change the amount of PBF Energy’s earnings that are subject to corporate income tax.

The following table reconciles the Adjusted Fully-Converted results for PBF Energy with their results presented in accordance with GAAP for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 (in thousands, except share and per share amount):

Gross Refining Margin and Gross Refining Margin Excluding Special Items

Gross refining margin is defined as consolidated gross margin excluding refinery depreciation, refinery operating expense, and gross margin of PBFX. We believe both gross refining margin and gross refining margin excluding special items are important measures of operating performance and provide useful information to investors because they are helpful metric comparisons to the industry refining margin benchmarks, as the refining margin benchmarks do not include a charge for refinery operating expenses and depreciation. In order to assess our operating performance, we compare our gross refining margin (revenue less cost of products and other) to industry refining margin benchmarks and crude oil prices as defined in the table below.

65

Neither gross refining margin nor gross refining margin excluding special items should be considered an alternative to consolidated gross margin, income from operations, net cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Gross refining margin and gross refining margin excluding special items presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation, since each company may define these terms differently. The following table presents our GAAP calculation of consolidated gross margin and a reconciliation of gross refining margin to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, consolidated gross margin, on a historical basis, as applicable, for each of the periods indicated (in thousands, except per barrel amounts):

EBITDA, EBITDA Excluding Special Items and Adjusted EBITDA

Our management uses EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization), EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of operating performance to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis and to readily view operating trends, as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations, and in communications with our board of directors, creditors, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance. Our outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money and other contractual obligations also include similar measures as a basis for certain covenants under those agreements which may differ from the Adjusted EBITDA definition described below.

EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and our computation of EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in our industry. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA contains some, but not all, adjustments that are taken into account in the calculation of the components of various covenants in the agreements governing our senior notes and other credit facilities. EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss) or net income (loss) as measures of operating performance. In addition, EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA are not presented as, and should not be considered, an alternative to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before adjustments for items such as stock-based compensation expense, the non-cash change in the fair value of catalyst leases, the write down of inventory to the LCM, changes in the liability for Tax Receivable Agreement due to factors out of our control such as changes in tax rates, debt extinguishment costs related to refinancing activities and certain other non-cash items. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may calculate EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA also have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our

67

results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include that EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA:

• do not reflect depreciation expense or our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

• do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

• do not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;

• do not reflect realized and unrealized gains and losses from certain hedging activities, which may have a substantial impact on our cash flow;

• do not reflect certain other non-cash income and expenses; and

• exclude income taxes that may represent a reduction in available cash.

Notes to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following notes are applicable to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures above:

(1) Represents the elimination of the noncontrolling interest associated with the ownership by the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy, as if such members had fully exchanged their PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy’s Class A common stock.

(2) Represents an adjustment to reflect PBF Energy’s estimated annualized statutory corporate tax rate of approximately 26.4% and 39.4% for the 2018 and 2017 periods, respectively, applied to the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest for all periods presented. The adjustment assumes the full exchange of existing PBF LLC Series A Units as described in (1) above. Our statutory tax rates were reduced in 2018 as a result of the TCJA enactment.

(3) Special items:

LCM inventory adjustment - 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 inventory adjustment is recorded to reflect the net change in the LCM inventory reserve between the prior period and the current period. 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.

The following table includes the lower of cost or market inventory reserve as of each date presented (in thousands):

	2018		2017
January 1,	$	300,456	$	595,988

Debt Extinguishment Costs - During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded pre-tax debt extinguishment costs of $25.5 million related to the redemption of the 2020 Senior Secured Notes. These nonrecurring charges decreased net income by $15.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. There were no such costs in the same periods of 2018.

Recomputed Income taxes on special items - The income tax impact of the special items were calculated using the tax rates shown in footnote (2) above.

(4) Represents an adjustment to weighted-average diluted shares outstanding to assume the full exchange of existing PBF LLC Series A Units as described in (1) above.

(5) Represents weighted-average diluted shares outstanding assuming the conversion of all common stock equivalents, including options and warrants for PBF LLC Series A Units and options for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock as calculated under the treasury stock method (to the extent the impact of such exchange would not be anti-dilutive) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 12,500 and 233,250 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A Units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 7,278,142 and 7,278,142 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A Units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash flows from operations and borrowing availability under our credit facilities, as more fully described below. We believe that our cash flows from operations and available capital resources will be sufficient to meet our and our subsidiaries’ capital expenditure, working capital, dividend payment, debt service and share repurchase program requirements, as well as our obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement, for the next twelve months. However, our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations depends, in part, on petroleum oil market pricing and general economic, political and other factors beyond our control. We are in compliance as of June 30, 2018 with all of the covenants, including financial covenants, in all of our debt agreements.

Cash Flow Analysis

The below cash flow analysis includes details by cash flow activity based on the results of PBF Energy. Material changes that exist between the PBF Energy and PBF LLC cash flow are explained thereafter.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $307.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $34.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Our operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included our net income of $329.5 million, depreciation and amortization of $182.3 million, deferred income taxes of $105.7 million, pension and other post-retirement benefits costs of $23.7 million, net non-cash charges relating to the change in the fair value of our inventory repurchase obligations of $2.5 million, stock-based compensation of $13.0 million, and a loss on sale of assets of $0.7 million, partially offset by a net non-cash benefit of $245.7 million relating to an LCM inventory adjustment, and changes in the fair value of our catalyst leases of $4.2 million. In addition, net changes in operating assets and liabilities reflected uses of cash of $99.7 million driven by the timing of inventory purchases, payments for accrued expenses and accounts payable and collections of accounts receivable. Our operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 included our net loss of $124.2 million, depreciation and amortization of $134.6 million, pension and other post-retirement benefits costs of $21.1 million, stock-based compensation of $13.8 million, changes in the fair value of our catalyst leases of $1.5 million, a net non-cash loss of $167.1 million relating to an LCM inventory adjustment, debt extinguishment costs related to the refinancing of our 2020 Senior Secured Notes of $25.5 million and a loss on sale of assets of $0.9 million, partially offset by deferred income taxes of $92.5 million, plus net non-cash charges relating to the change in the fair value of our inventory repurchase obligations of $3.1 million. In addition, net changes in operating assets and liabilities reflected uses of cash of $179.5 million driven by the timing of inventory purchases, payments for accrued expenses and accounts payables and collections of accounts receivables.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $365.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $428.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The net cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was comprised of cash outflows of $115.7 million for capital expenditures, expenditures for refinery turnarounds of $179.2 million, expenditures for other assets of $12.4 million and expenditures for the acquisition of Knoxville Terminals by PBFX of $58.0 million. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was comprised of cash outflows of $220.4 million for capital expenditures, expenditures for refinery turnarounds of $214.4 million, expenditures for other assets of $23.7 million and expenditures for the acquisition of Toledo Terminal by PBFX of $10.1 million, partially offset by $40.0 million of net maturities of marketable securities.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $37.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to net cash used in financing activities of $109.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, net cash used in financing activities consisted of distributions and dividends of $91.4 million, principal amortization payments of the PBF Rail Term Loan of $3.4 million, repayment of note payable of $2.4 million, net settlements of precious metals catalyst leases of $9.5 million, deferred financing costs of $13.0 million and repurchases of our common stock in connection with tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of certain restricted stock awards of $1.0 million, partially offset by net borrowings from the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility of $54.3 million, proceeds from insurance premium financing of $17.4 million and proceeds from stock options exercised of $11.7 million. Forthe six months ended June 30, 2017, net cash used in financing activities consisted of distributions and dividends of $89.4 million, repayments of the PBFX Term Loan of $39.7 million, principal amortization payments of the PBF Rail Term Loan of $3.3 million, partially offset by net cash proceeds of $22.4 million from the issuance of the 2025 Senior Notes net of cash paid to redeem the 2020 Senior Secured Notes and related issuance costs. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2017, we borrowed and repaid $290.0 million under our Revolving Loan resulting in no net change to amounts outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The cash flow activity of PBF LLC for the period ended June 30, 2018 is materially consistent with that of PBF Energy discussed above, other than changes in deferred income taxes and certain working capital items, which are different from PBF Energy due to certain tax related items not applicable to PBF LLC. Additionally, PBF LLC reflects proceeds from an affiliate loan with PBF Energy of $40.2 million included in cash flows from financing activities, which eliminates in consolidation at PBF Energy.

The cash flow activity of PBF LLC for the period ended June 30, 2017 is materially consistent with that of PBF Energy discussed above, other than change in deferred taxes and certain working capital items, which are different from PBF Energy due to certain tax related items not applicable to PBF LLC. Additionally, PBF LLC reflects proceeds from an affiliate loan with PBF Energy of $99.7 million included in cash flows from financing activities, which eliminates in consolidation at PBF Energy.

Credit Facilities

PBF Holding Revolving Credit Facility

On May 2, 2018, PBF Holding and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, as borrowers or subsidiary guarantors, replaced our existing asset-based revolving credit agreement dated as of August 15, 2014 (the “August 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement”) with a new asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “2018 Revolving Credit Agreement”). Among other things, the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement increases the maximum commitment available to us from $2.6 billion to $3.4 billion, extends the maturity date to May 2023, and redefines certain components of the Borrowing Base (as defined in the credit agreement) to make more funding available for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the

71

Applicable Margin, all as defined in the credit agreement. The Applicable Margin ranges from 0.25% to 1.00% for Alternative Base Rate Loans and from 1.25% to 2.00% for Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case depending on our corporate credit rating. In addition, an accordion feature allows for commitments of up to $3.5 billion. The LC Participation Fee ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s corporate credit rating and the Fronting Fee is capped at 0.25% (as described in “Note 7 - Debt” of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). The 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants by us and the other borrowers, as well as customary events of default and indemnification obligations.

The 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary covenants and restrictions on the activities of PBF Holding and its subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, negative pledges, guarantees, investments, loans, asset sales, mergers, acquisitions and prepayment of other debt, distributions, dividends and the repurchase of capital stock, transactions with affiliates and the ability of PBF Holding to change the nature of its business or its fiscal year; all as defined in the credit agreement.

In addition, the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement has a financial covenant which requires that if at any time Excess Availability, as defined in the credit agreement, is less than the greater of (i) 10% of the lesser of the then existing Borrowing Base and the then aggregate Revolving Commitments of the Lenders (the “Financial Covenant Testing Amount”), and (ii) $100.0 million, and until such time as Excess Availability is greater than the Financial Covenant Testing Amount and $100.0 million for a period of 12 or more consecutive days, PBF Holding will not permit the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as defined in the credit agreement and determined as of the last day of the most recently completed quarter, to be less than 1.0 to 1.0.

PBF Holding’s obligations under the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement are (a) guaranteed by each of its domestic operating subsidiaries that are not Excluded Subsidiaries (as defined in the credit agreement) and (b) secured by a lien on (i) PBF LLC’s equity interest in PBF Holding and (ii) certain assets of PBF Holding and the subsidiary guarantors, including all deposit accounts (other than zero balance accounts, cash collateral accounts, trust accounts and/or payroll accounts, all of which are excluded from the collateral), all accounts receivable, all hydrocarbon inventory (other than the intermediate and finished products owned by J. Aron pursuant to the Inventory Intermediation Agreements) and to the extent evidencing, governing, securing or otherwise related to the foregoing, all general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents, letter of credit rights and supporting obligations; and all products and proceeds of the foregoing.

PBFX Revolving Credit Facility

On July 30, 2018, PBFX amended and restated the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility dated May 14, 2014. Among other things, the PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility increases the maximum commitment available to PBFX from $360.0 million to $500.0 million and extends the maturity date to July 2023. PBFX has the ability to further increase the maximum availability by an additional $250.0 million, to a total facility size of $750.0 million, subject to receiving increased commitments from lenders or other financial institutions and satisfaction of certain conditions. The commitment fees on the unused portion, the interest rate on advances and the fees for letters of credit are consistent with the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility. The PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility contains representations, warranties and covenants by PBFX, as well as customary events of default and indemnification obligations that are consistent with, or more favorable to PBFX, than those in the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility.

On April 16, 2018, PBFX completed the Knoxville Terminals Purchase for total cash consideration of approximately $58.0 million, excluding working capital adjustments, which was primarily financed through borrowings under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility.

Liquidity

As of June 30, 2018, our total liquidity was approximately $1,785.9 million, compared to total liquidity of approximately $1,442.0 million as of December 31, 2017. Our total liquidity is equal to the amount of excess availability under the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement, which includes our cash balance at June 30, 2018. In

72

addition, as of June 30, 2018 PBFX had approximately $272.0 million of borrowing capacity under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility in comparison to $336.0 million as of December 31, 2017. The PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility is available to fund working capital, acquisitions, distributions, capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes incurred by PBFX.

Working Capital

PBF Energy’s working capital at June 30, 2018 was $1,630.5 million, consisting of $4,107.8 million in total current assets and $2,477.3 million in total current liabilities. PBF Energy’s working capital at December 31, 2017 was $1,384.0 million, consisting of $3,803.0 million in total current assets and $2,418.9 million in total current liabilities. PBF LLC’s working capital at June 30, 2018 was $1,612.5 million, consisting of $4,103.0 million in total current assets and $2,490.5 million in total current liabilities. PBF LLC’s working capital at December 31, 2017 was $1,351.7 million, consisting of $3,780.2 million in total current assets and $2,428.5 million in total current liabilities.

Working capital has increased primarily as a result of positive earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2018, partially offset by capital expenditures, including turnaround costs.

Capital Spending

Net capital spending was $365.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which primarily included turnaround costs, safety related enhancements, facility improvements at the refineries and the PBFX Knoxville Terminals Purchase. Excluding PBFX, we currently expect to spend an aggregate of approximately $525.0 million to $550.0 million in net capital expenditures during the full year 2018 for facility improvements and refinery maintenance and turnarounds. Significant capital spending for the full year 2018, excluding PBFX, includes turnarounds for the FCC and alkylation units at our Chalmette refinery, the coker at our Paulsboro refinery and several units at our Toledo and Delaware City refineries, as well as expenditures to meet environmental and regulatory requirements. In addition, PBFX expects to spend an aggregate of approximately $60.0 million to $65.0 million in net capital expenditures during the full year 2018, excluding acquisitions.

Share Repurchases

Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of our Class A common stock (as amended from time to time, the “Repurchase Program”), which expires on September 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, we have purchased approximately 6,050,717 shares of our Class A common stock under the Repurchase Program for $150.8 million through open market transactions. No repurchases of our Class A common stock were made during the three months ended June 30, 2018. We currently have the ability to purchase approximately an additional $149.2 million in common stock under the approved Repurchase Program.

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. We are not obligated to purchase any shares under the Repurchase Program, and repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

Crude and Feedstock Supply Agreements

Certain of our purchases of crude oil under our agreements with foreign national oil companies require that we post letters of credit and arrange for shipment. We pay for the crude when invoiced, at which time the letters of credit are lifted. Our crude and feedstock supply agreements with PDVSA provide that the crude oil can be processed at any of our East and Gulf Coast refineries. We have not sourced crude oil under this arrangement since the third quarter of 2017 as PDVSA has suspended deliveries due to the parties’ inability to agree to mutually acceptable payment terms.

73

Inventory Intermediation Agreements

On May 4, 2017 and September 8, 2017, PBF Holding and its subsidiaries, DCR and PRC, entered into amendments to the Inventory Intermediation Agreements with J. Aron, pursuant to which certain terms of the existing inventory intermediation agreements were amended, including, among other things, pricing and an extension of the terms. As a result of the amendments (i) the Inventory Intermediation Agreement by and among J. Aron, PBF Holding and PRC relating to the Paulsboro refinery extends the term to December 31, 2019, which term may be further extended by mutual consent of the parties to December 31, 2020 and (ii) the Inventory Intermediation Agreement by and among J. Aron, PBF Holding and DCR relating to the Delaware City refinery extends the term to July 1, 2019, which term may be further extended by mutual consent of the parties to July 1, 2020.

Pursuant to each Inventory Intermediation Agreement, J. Aron continues to purchase and hold title to certain of the intermediate and finished products (the “Products”) produced by the Paulsboro and Delaware City refineries (the “Refineries”), respectively, and delivered into tanks at the Refineries. Furthermore, J. Aron agrees to sell the Products back to the Refineries as the Products are discharged out of the Refineries’ tanks. J. Aron has the right to store the Products purchased in tanks under the Inventory Intermediation Agreements and will retain these storage rights for the term of the agreements. PBF Holding continues to market and sell independently to third parties.

At June 30, 2018, the LIFO value of intermediates and finished products owned by J. Aron included within inventory on our balance sheet was $296.1 million. We accrue a corresponding liability for such intermediates and finished products.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations and Commitments

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2018, other than outstanding letters of credit in the amount of approximately $605.7 million and operating leases.

Tax Receivable Agreement Obligations

We expect that the payments that we may make under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be substantial. As of June 30, 2018, we have recognized a liability for the Tax Receivable Agreement of $391.2 million reflecting our estimate of the undiscounted amounts that we expect to pay under the agreement due to exchanges of PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy’s Class A common stock that occurred prior to that date, and to range over the next five years from approximately $30.0 million to $65.0 million per year and decline thereafter. In addition, under certain circumstances, our obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement may be accelerated and determined based on certain assumptions set forth therein. Assuming that the market value of a share of our Class A common stock equals $41.93 per share (the closing price on June 30, 2018) and that LIBOR were to be 1.85%, we estimate as of June 30, 2018 that the aggregate amount of these accelerated payments would have been approximately $345.5 million if triggered immediately on such date. These payment obligations are obligations of PBF Energy and not of PBF LLC or any of its subsidiaries including PBF Holding or PBFX. However, because PBF Energy is a holding company with no operations of its own, PBF Energy’s ability to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement is dependent upon a number of factors, including its subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions for the benefit of PBF LLC’s members, including PBF Energy, its ability, if necessary, to finance its obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement and existing indebtedness which may limit PBF Energy’s subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions.

Future payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement by us in respect of subsequent exchanges of PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy’s Class A common stock would be in addition to the amounts above and are expected to be substantial. The foregoing numbers are merely estimates - the actual payments could differ materially and assume that there are no material changes in the relevant tax law, and that we earn sufficient taxable income to realize all tax benefits that are subject to the tax receivable agreement. It is possible that future transactions or events could increase or decrease the actual tax benefits realized and the corresponding Tax Receivable Agreement payments.

Dividend and Distribution Policy

PBF Energy

With respect to dividends and distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2018, PBF LLC made aggregate non-tax quarterly distributions of $68.5 million, or $0.30 per unit to its members, of which $67.2 million was distributed to PBF Energy and the balance was distributed to its other members. PBF Energy used this $67.2 million to pay quarterly cash dividends of $0.30 per share of Class A common stock on March 14, 2018 and May 30, 2018.

On August 2, 2018, PBF Energy announced a dividend of $0.30 per share on outstanding Class A common stock. The dividend is payable on August 30, 2018 to Class A common stockholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2018. PBF LLC intends to make pro-rata distributions of approximately $34.5 million, or $0.30 per unit to its members, including PBF Energy. PBF Energy will then use this distribution to fund the dividend payments to the shareholders of PBF Energy.

PBF Energy currently intends to continue to pay a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share of Class A common stock. The declaration, amount and payment of this and any other future dividends on shares of Class A common stock will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors, and we are not obligated under any applicable laws, our governing documents or any contractual agreements with our existing owners or otherwise to declare or pay any dividends or other distributions (other than the obligations of PBF LLC to make tax distributions to its members).

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $1,750.3 million of unused borrowing availability, which includes PBF Holding cash and cash equivalents of $442.7 million, under the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement to fund its operations, if necessary. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2018, there was sufficient cash and cash equivalents and borrowing capacity under our credit facilities available to make distributions to PBF LLC, if necessary, in order for PBF LLC to make pro-rata distributions to its members, including PBF Energy, necessary to fund in excess of one year’s cash dividend payments by PBF Energy. PBF Holding would have been permitted under its debt agreements to make these distributions; however, its ability to continue to comply with its debt covenants is, to a significant degree, subject to its operating results, which are dependent on a number of factors outside of our control. We believe our and our subsidiaries’ available cash and cash equivalents, other sources of liquidity to operate our business and operating performance provides us with a reasonable basis for our assessment that we can support our intended dividend and distribution policy.

PBF Logistics LP

PBFX intends to pay a minimum quarterly distribution of at least $0.30per unit per quarter, or $1.20 per unit on an annualized basis, which aggregates to approximately $12.8 million per quarter or approximately $51.2 million per year, based on the number of common units and associated IDRs (as defined in “Note 3 - PBF Logistics LP” of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) outstanding as of June 30, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, PBFX made quarterly cash distributions totaling $46.6 million of which $23.7 million was distributed to PBF LLC and the balance was distributed to its public unitholders.

On August 2, 2018, the Board of Directors of PBFX’s general partner, PBF GP, announced a distribution of $0.495 per unit on outstanding common units of PBFX. The distribution is payable on August 30, 2018 to PBFX common unitholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2018.

As of June 30, 2018, PBFX had $4.0 million outstanding letters of credit and $272.0 million available under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility and cash and cash equivalents of $19.7 million to fund its operations, if necessary. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2018, there was sufficient cash and cash equivalents and borrowing capacity under our credit facilities available to PBFX to make distributions to unitholders.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks, including changes in commodity prices and interest rates. Our primary commodity price risk is associated with the difference between the prices we sell our refined products and the prices we pay for crude oil and other feedstocks. We may use derivative instruments to manage the risks from changes in the prices of crude oil and refined products, natural gas, interest rates, or to capture market opportunities.

Commodity Price Risk

Our earnings, cash flow and liquidity are significantly affected by a variety of factors beyond our control, including the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, other feedstocks, refined products and natural gas. The supply of and demand for these commodities depend on, among other factors, changes in domestic and foreign economies, weather conditions, domestic and foreign political affairs, planned and unplanned downtime in refineries, pipelines and production facilities, production levels, the availability of imports, the marketing of competitive and alternative fuels, and the extent of government regulation. As a result, the prices of these commodities can be volatile. Our revenues fluctuate significantly with movements in industry refined product prices, our cost of sales fluctuates significantly with movements in crude oil and feedstock prices and our operating expenses fluctuate with movements in the price of natural gas. We manage our exposure to these commodity price risks through our supply and offtake agreements as well as through the use of various commodity derivative instruments.

We may use non-trading derivative instruments to manage exposure to commodity price risks associated with the purchase or sale of crude oil and feedstocks, finished products and natural gas outside of our supply and offtake agreements. The derivative instruments we use include physical commodity contracts and exchange-traded and over-the-counter financial instruments. We mark-to-market our commodity derivative instruments and recognize the changes in their fair value in our statements of operations.

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had gross open commodity derivative contracts representing 28.0 million barrels and 24.3 million barrels, respectively, with an unrealized net loss of $41.5 million and $74.3 million, respectively. The open commodity derivative contracts as of June 30, 2018 expire at various times during 2018.

We carry inventories of crude oil, intermediates and refined products (“hydrocarbon inventories”) on our balance sheet, the values of which are subject to fluctuations in market prices. Our hydrocarbon inventories totaled approximately 31.2 million barrels and 30.1 million barrels at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The average cost of our hydrocarbon inventories was approximately $79.92 and $80.21 per barrel on a LIFO basis at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, excluding the net impact of LCM inventory adjustments of approximately $54.8 million and $300.5 million, respectively. If market prices of our inventory decline to a level below our average cost, we may be required to further write down the carrying value of our hydrocarbon inventories to market.

Our predominant variable operating cost is energy, which is comprised primarily of natural gas and electricity. We are therefore sensitive to movements in natural gas prices. Assuming normal operating conditions, we annually consume a total of approximately 68 million MMBTUs of natural gas amongst our five refineries as of June 30, 2018. Accordingly, a $1.00 per MMBTU change in natural gas prices would increase or decrease our natural gas costs by approximately $68.0 million.

Compliance Program Price Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility in the price of RINs required to comply with the RFS. Our overall RINs obligation is based on a percentage of our domestic shipments of on-road fuels as established by the EPA. To the degree we are unable to blend the required amount of biofuels to satisfy our RINs obligation, we must purchase RINs on the open market. To mitigate the impact of this risk on our results of operations and cash flows we may purchase RINs when the price of these instruments is deemed favorable.

76

In addition, we are exposed to risks associated with complying with federal and state legislative and regulatory measures to address greenhouse gas and other emissions. Requirements to reduce emissions could result in increased costs to operate and maintain our facilities as well as implement and manage new emission controls and programs put in place. For example, AB32 in California requires the state to reduce its GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020.

Interest Rate Risk

The maximum availability under our 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement is $3.4 billion. Borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest either at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin, all as defined in the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement. If this facility was fully drawn, a 1.0% change in the interest rate would increase or decrease our interest expense by approximately $34.0 million annually.

The PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility, with a current maximum availability of $500.0 million, bears interest either at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin, all as defined in the PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility. At June 30, 2018, PBFX had $84.0 million outstanding in variable interest debt. If this facility was fully drawn, a 1.0% change in the interest rate would increase or decrease our interest expense by approximately $3.6 million annually.

In addition, the PBF Rail Term Loan, which bears interest at a variable rate, had an outstanding principal balance of $25.0 million at June 30, 2018. A 1.0% change in the interest rate would increase or decrease our interest expense by approximately $0.25 million annually, assuming the current outstanding principal balance on the PBF Rail Term Loan remained outstanding.

We also have interest rate exposure in connection with our Inventory Intermediation Agreements under which we pay a time value of money charge based on LIBOR.

Credit Risk

We are subject to risk of losses resulting from nonpayment or nonperformance by our counterparties. We continue to closely monitor the creditworthiness of customers to whom we grant credit and establish credit limits in accordance with our credit policy.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

PBF Energy and PBF LLC maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that information which is required to be disclosed is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely manner. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including PBF Energy’s and PBF LLC’s principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2018. Based on that evaluation, PBF Energy’s and PBF LLC’s principal executive officer and the principal financial officer have concluded that PBF Energy’s and PBF LLC’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2018.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management has not identified any changes in PBF Energy’s or PBF LLC’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, either entity’s internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On July 24, 2013, the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (“DNREC”) issued a Notice of Administrative Penalty Assessment and Secretary’s Order to Delaware City Refining for alleged air emission violations that occurred during the re-start of the refinery in 2011 and subsequent to the re-start. The penalty assessment seeks $460,200 in penalties and $69,030 in cost recovery for DNREC’s expenses associated with investigation of the incidents. We dispute the amount of the penalty assessment and allegations made in the order, and are in discussions with DNREC to resolve the assessment. It is possible that DNREC will assess a penalty in this matter but any such amount is not expected to be material to us.

On April 7, 2015, DNREC issued a Notice of Violation (W-15-SWD-01) alleging violations of the Delaware City refinery’s NPDES discharge permit during the period between December 12, 2014 through January 4, 2015. On March 5, 2018, a settlement agreement was finalized resolving the alleged violations contained in the April 7, 2015 Notice of Violation, as well as additional alleged violations occurring during the period between January 2014 through January 2018. Pursuant to this settlement agreement, the Delaware City refinery was either going to pay a penalty of $30,000 and fund an approved Environmental Improvement Project (“EIP”) in the amount of $88,000, or pay a penalty in the amount of $118,000. A cost recovery payment of $7,433 will be assessed in either case. The Delaware City refinery has elected to pay the $30,000 penalty and fund the EIP in the amount of $88,000. The Delaware City refinery has paid the penalty and the cost recovery payment and is awaiting DNREC approval to fund the EIP.

At the time we acquired the Chalmette refinery it was subject to a Consolidated Compliance Order and Notice of Potential Penalty (the “Order”) issued by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (“LDEQ”) covering deviations from 2009 and 2010. Chalmette Refining and LDEQ subsequently entered into a dispute resolution agreement to negotiate the resolution of deviations on or before December 31, 2014. On May 18, 2018 the Order was settled by LDEQ and the Chalmette refinery for an administrative penalty of $741,000, of which $100,000 has been paid in cash and the remainder has been or will be spent on beneficial environmental projects.

The Delaware City refinery is appealing a Notice of Penalty Assessment and Secretary’s Order issued in March 2017, including a $150,000 fine, alleging violation of a 2013 Secretary’s Order authorizing crude oil shipment by barge. DNREC determined that the Delaware City refinery had violated the order by failing to make timely and full disclosure to DNREC about the nature and extent of those shipments, and had misrepresented the number of shipments that went to other facilities. The Penalty Assessment and Secretary’s Order conclude that the 2013 Secretary’s Order was violated by the refinery by shipping crude oil from the Delaware City terminal to three locations other than the Paulsboro refinery, on 15 days in 2014, making a total of 17 separate barge shipments containing approximately 35.7 million gallons of crude oil in total. On April 28, 2017, the Delaware City refinery appealed the Notice of Penalty Assessment and Secretary’s Order. On March 5, 2018, Notice of Penalty Assessment was settled by DNREC, the Delaware Attorney General and Delaware City refinery for $100,000. The Delaware City refinery made no admissions with respect to the alleged violations and agreed to request a Coastal Zone Act status decision prior to making crude oil shipments to destinations other than Paulsboro. The Delaware City refinery has paid the penalty.

On December 28, 2016, DNREC issued the Ethanol Permit to DCR allowing the utilization of existing tanks and existing marine loading equipment at their existing facilities to enable denatured ethanol to be loaded from storage tanks to marine vessels and shipped to offsite facilities. On January 13, 2017, the issuance of the Ethanol Permit was appealed by two environmental groups. On February 27, 2017, the Coastal Zone Board held a public hearing and dismissed the appeal, determining that the appellants did not have standing. The appellants filed an appeal of the Coastal Zone Board’s decision with the Superior Court on March 30, 2017. On January 19, 2018, the Superior Court rendered an Opinion regarding the decision of the Coastal Zone Board to dismiss the appeal of the Ethanol Permit for the ethanol project. The judge determined that the record created by the Coastal Zone Board was insufficient for the Superior Court to make a decision, and therefore remanded the case back to the Coastal Zone Board to address the deficiency in the record. Specifically, the Superior Court directed the Coastal Zone Board to address any evidence concerning whether the appellants’ claimed injuries would be affected by the

79

increased quantity of ethanol shipments. During the hearing before the Coastal Zone Board on standing, one of the appellants’ witnesses made a reference to the flammability of ethanol, without any indication of the significance of flammability/explosivity to specific concerns. Moreover, the appellants did not introduce at hearing any evidence of the relative flammability of ethanol as compared to other materials shipped to and from the refinery. However, the sole dissenting opinion from the Coastal Zone Board focused on the flammability/explosivity issue, alleging that the appellants’ testimony raised the issue as a distinct basis for potential harms. Once the Board responds to the remand, it will go back to the Superior Court to complete its analysis and issue a decision.

At the time we acquired the Toledo refinery, the EPA had initiated an investigation into the compliance of the refinery with EPA standards governing flaring pursuant to Section 114 of the Clean Air Act. On February 1, 2013, the EPA issued an Amended Notice of Violation, and on September 20, 2013, the EPA issued a Notice of Violation and Finding of Violation to Toledo refinery, alleging certain violations of the Clean Air Act at its Plant 4 and Plant 9 flares since the acquisition of the refinery on March 1, 2011. Toledo refinery and the EPA subsequently entered into tolling agreements pending settlement discussions. Although the resolution has not been finalized, the civil administrative penalty is anticipated to be approximately $645,000 including supplemental environmental projects. To the extent the administrative penalty exceeds such amount, it is not expected to be material to us.

In connection with the acquisition of the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets, we assumed certain pre-existing environmental liabilities related to certain environmental remediation obligations to address existing soil and groundwater contamination and monitoring activities, which reflect the estimated cost of the remediation obligations. In addition, in connection with the acquisition of the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets, we purchased a ten year, $100.0 million environmental insurance policy to insure against unknown environmental liabilities. Furthermore, in connection with the acquisition, we assumed responsibility for certain specified environmental matters that occurred prior to our ownership of the refinery and logistics assets, including specified incidents and/or notices of violations (“NOVs”) issued by regulatory agencies in various years before the Company’s ownership, including the Southern California Air Quality Management District (“SCAQMD”) and the Division of Occupational Safety and Health of the State of California (“Cal/OSHA”).

Subsequent to the acquisition, further NOVs were issued by the SCAQMD, Cal/OSHA, the City of Torrance, the City of Torrance Fire Department, and the Los Angeles County Sanitation District related to alleged operational violations, emission discharges and/or flaring incidents at the refinery and the logistics assets both before and after our acquisition. EPA in November 2016 conducted a Risk Management Plan (“RMP”) inspection following the acquisition related to Torrance operations and issued preliminary findings in March 2017 concerning RMP potential operational violations. EPA and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) in December 2016 conducted a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) inspection following the acquisition related to Torrance operations and also issued in March 2017 preliminary findings concerning RCRA potential operational violations. In April 2017, EPA referred the RCRA preliminary findings to DTSC for final resolution. On March 1, 2018, we received a notice of intent to sue from Environmental Integrity Project, on behalf of Environment California, under RCRA with respect to the alleged RCRA violations from December 2016 EPA’s and DTSC’s inspection. On March 2, 2018, DTSC issued an order to correct alleged RCRA violations relating to the accumulation of oil bearing materials in roll off bins during 2016 and 2017. On June 14, 2018, the Torrance refinery and DTSC reached settlement regarding the oil bearing materials in the form of a stipulation and order, wherein the Torrance refinery agreed that it would recycle or properly dispose of the oil bearing materials by the end of 2018 and pay an administrative penalty of $150,000. Following this settlement, in June 2018, DTSC referred the remaining alleged RCRA violations from EPA’s and DTSC’s December 2016 inspection to the California Attorney General for final resolution. The Torrance refinery and the California Attorney General are in discussions to resolve these alleged remaining RCRA violations. Other than the $150,000 DTSC administrative penalty, no other settlement or penalty demands have been received to date with respect to any of the other NOVs, preliminary findings, or order that are in excess of $100,000. As the ultimate outcomes are uncertain, we cannot currently estimate the final amount or timing of their resolution but any such amount is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, individually or in the aggregate.

On September 2, 2011, prior to our ownership of the Chalmette refinery, the plaintiff in Vincent Caruso, etal. v. Chalmette Refining, L.L.C., filed an action on behalf of himself and potentially several thousand other Louisiana residents who live or own property in St. Bernard Parish and Orleans Parish and whose property was allegedly contaminated and who allegedly suffered any property damages and clean-up costs as a result of an emission of spent catalyst from the Chalmette refinery on September 6, 2010. Plaintiffs claim to have suffered injuries, symptoms, and property damage as a result of the release, although the trial court has limited recovery to property damages and clean-up expenses. Plaintiffs seek to recover unspecified damages, interest and costs. In 2016, there was a mini-trial for four plaintiffs for property damage relating to home and vehicle cleaning and the trial court rendered judgment awarding damages related to the cost for home cleaning and vehicle cleaning to the four plaintiffs. The trial court found Chalmette Refining and co-defendant Eaton Corporation (“Eaton”), to be solidarily liable for the damages. Chalmette Refining and Eaton filed an appeal in August 2016 of the judgment on the mini-trial and on June 28, 2017, the appellate court unanimously reversed the judgment awarding damages to the plaintiffs, and plaintiffs request for rehearing was later denied. As a result of the appellate court’s judgment, the potential amount of the claims is not determinable. The trial court has set a new mini-trial of two plaintiffs for November 2018. Depending upon the ultimate class size, the nature of the claims, or the results from the forthcoming mini-trial, the outcome may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

On December 5, 1990, prior to our ownership of the Chalmette refinery, the plaintiff in Adam Thomas, et al. v. Exxon Mobil Corporation and Chalmette Refining, L.L.C., filed an action on behalf of himself and potentially thousands of other individuals in St. Bernard Parish and Orleans Parish who were allegedly exposed to hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide as a result of more than 100 separate flaring events that occurred between 1989 and 2007. This litigation is proceeding as a mass action with individually named plaintiffs as a result of a 2008 trial court decision, affirmed by the court of appeals, that denied class certification. The plaintiffs claim to have suffered physical injuries, property damage, and other damages as a result of the releases. Plaintiffs seek to recover unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, interest, and costs. Although no trial date has been set by the state trial court, the parties are preparing for a mini-trial of up to 10 plaintiffs, relating to 5 separate flaring events that occurred between 2002 and 2007. Because of the number of potential claimants is unknown and the differing events underlying the claims, the potential amount of the claims is not determinable. It is possible that an adverse outcome may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

On February 17, 2017, in Arnold Goldstein, et al. v. Exxon Mobil Corporation, et al., we and PBF Energy Company LLC, and our subsidiaries, PBF Energy Western Region LLC and Torrance Refining Company LLC and the manager of our Torrance refinery along with Exxon Mobil Corporation were named as defendants in a class action and representative action complaint filed on behalf of Arnold Goldstein, John Covas, Gisela Janette La Bella and others similarly situated. The complaint was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles and alleges negligence, strict liability, ultrahazardous activity, a continuing private nuisance, a permanent private nuisance, a continuing public nuisance, a permanent public nuisance and trespass resulting from the February 18, 2015 electrostatic precipitator (“ESP”) explosion at the Torrance refinery which was then owned and operated by Exxon. The operation of the Torrance refinery by the PBF entities subsequent to our acquisition in July 2016 is also referenced in the complaint. To the extent that plaintiffs’ claims relate to the ESP explosion, Exxon has retained responsibility for any liabilities that would arise from the lawsuit pursuant to the agreement relating to the acquisition of the Torrance refinery. On July 2, 2018, the Court granted leave to plaintiffs’ to file a Second Amended Complaint alleging groundwater contamination. With the filing of the Second Amended Complaint, Plaintiffs’ added an additional plaintiff. This matter is in the initial stages of discovery and we cannot currently estimate the amount or the timing of its resolution. We presently believe the outcome will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We are subject to obligations to purchase RINs. On February 15, 2017, we received notification that EPA records indicated that PBF Holding used potentially invalid RINs that were in fact verified under the EPA’s RIN Quality Assurance Program (“QAP”) by an independent auditor as QAP A RINs. Under the regulations use of potentially invalid QAP A RINs provided the user with an affirmative defense from civil penalties provided certain conditions are met. We have asserted the affirmative defense and if accepted by the EPA will not be required to

81

replace these RINs and will not be subject to civil penalties under the program. It is reasonably possible that the EPA will not accept our defense and may assess penalties in these matters but any such amount is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As of January 1, 2011, we are required to comply with the EPA’s Control of Hazardous Air Pollutants From Mobile Sources, or MSAT2, regulations on gasoline that impose reductions in the benzene content of our produced gasoline. We purchase benzene credits to meet these requirements. Our planned capital projects will reduce the amount of benzene credits that we need to purchase. In addition, the renewable fuel standards mandate the blending of prescribed percentages of renewable fuels (e.g., ethanol and biofuels) into our produced gasoline and diesel. These new requirements, other requirements of the CAA and other presently existing or future environmental regulations may cause us to make substantial capital expenditures as well as the purchase of credits at significant cost, to enable our refineries to produce products that meet applicable requirements.

CERCLA, also known as “Superfund,” imposes liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons who are considered to be responsible for the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include the current or former owner or operator of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and companies that disposed of or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances. Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to joint and several liability for investigation and the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment, for damages to natural resources and for the costs of certain health studies. As discussed more fully above, certain of our sites are subject to these laws and we may be held liable for investigation and remediation costs or claims for natural resource damages. It is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by hazardous substances or other pollutants released into the environment. Analogous state laws impose similar responsibilities and liabilities on responsible parties. In our current normal operations, we have generated waste, some of which falls within the statutory definition of a “hazardous substance” and some of which may have been disposed of at sites that may require cleanup under Superfund.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Exchange of PBF LLC Series A Units to Class A Common Stock

In the three months ended June 30, 2018, 2,148,763 PBF LLC Series A Units were exchanged for 2,148,763 shares of our Class A common stock in transactions exempt from registration under Section 4(a) (2) of the Securities Act. We received no other consideration in connection with any exchanges. No exchanges were made by any of our directors or current executive officers.

Share Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of our Class A common stock (as amended from time to time, the “Repurchase Program”), which expires on September 30, 2018. 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. We are not obligated to purchase any shares under the Repurchase Program, and repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

There were no repurchases of our Class A Common Stock during the second quarter of 2018. For the period of time from the inception of the Repurchase Program through June 30, 2018, we purchased 6,050,717 shares for $150.8 million. As of June 30, 2018, we had $149.2 million remaining authorized availability under the Repurchase Program.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of the Business

PBF Energy Inc. (“PBF Energy”) was formed as a Delaware corporation on November 7, 2011 and is the sole managing member of PBF Energy Company LLC (“PBF LLC”), a Delaware limited liability company, with a controlling interest in PBF LLC and its subsidiaries. PBF Energy consolidates the financial results of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries and records a noncontrolling interest in its consolidated financial statements representing the economic interests of PBF LLC’s members other than PBF Energy.

PBF LLC, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, owns and operates oil refineries and related facilities in North America. PBF Holding Company LLC (“PBF Holding”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBF LLC. PBF Investments LLC (“PBF Investments”), Toledo Refining Company LLC (“Toledo Refining” or “TRC”), Paulsboro Refining Company LLC (“Paulsboro Refining” or “PRC”), Delaware City Refining Company LLC (“Delaware City Refining” or “DCR”), Chalmette Refining, L.L.C. (“Chalmette Refining”), PBF Western Region LLC (“PBF Western Region”), Torrance Refining Company LLC (“Torrance Refining”) and Torrance Logistics Company LLC are PBF LLC’s principal operating subsidiaries and are all wholly-owned subsidiaries of PBF Holding. Discussions or areas of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that either apply only to PBF Energy or PBF LLC are clearly noted in such footnotes.

As of June 30, 2018, PBF LLC also holds a 43.9% limited partner interest and all of the incentive distribution rights in PBF Logistics LP (“PBFX”), a publicly traded master limited partnership (refer to “Note 3 - PBF Logistics LP”). PBF Logistics GP LLC (“PBF GP”) owns the noneconomic general partner interest and serves as the general partner of PBFX and is wholly-owned by PBF LLC. PBF Energy, through its ownership of PBF LLC, consolidates the financial results of PBFX and its subsidiaries and records a noncontrolling interest in its consolidated financial statements representing the economic interests of PBFX’s unit holders other than PBF LLC. Collectively, PBF Energy and its consolidated subsidiaries, including PBF LLC, PBF Holding, PBF GP and PBFX are referred to hereinafter as the “Company” unless the context otherwise requires.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company owns 113,850,959 PBF LLC Series C Units and the Company’s current and former executive officers and directors and certain employees and others beneficially own 1,206,325 PBF LLC Series A Units. As of June 30, 2018, the holders of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock have 99.0% of the voting power in the Company and the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy through their holdings of Class B common stock have the remaining 1.0% of the voting power in the Company.

Substantially all of the Company’s operations are in the United States. The Company operates in two reportable business segments: Refining and Logistics. The Company’s oil refineries are all engaged in the refining of crude oil and other feedstocks into petroleum products, and are aggregated into the Refining segment. PBFX is a publicly traded master limited partnership that was formed to operate logistical assets such as crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, and storage facilities. PBFX’s operations are aggregated into the Logistics segment. To generate earnings and cash flows from operations, the Company is primarily dependent upon processing crude oil and selling refined petroleum products at margins sufficient to cover fixed and variable costs and other expenses. Crude oil and refined petroleum products are commodities; and factors largely out of the Company’s control can cause prices to vary over time. The potential margin volatility can have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, earnings and cash flow.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the PBF Energy financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the PBF LLC financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on March 13, 2018 by PBF Logistics LP. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Change in Presentation

In 2017, the Company determined that it would revise the presentation of certain line items on its consolidated statements of operations to enhance its disclosure under the requirements of Rule 5-03 of Regulation S-X. The revised presentation is comprised of the inclusion of a subtotal within costs and expenses referred to as “Cost of sales” and the reclassification of total depreciation and amortization expense between such amounts attributable to cost of sales and other operating costs and expenses. The amount of depreciation and amortization expense that is presented separately within the “Cost of Sales” subtotal represents depreciation and amortization of refining and logistics assets that are integral to the refinery production process.

The historical comparative information has been revised to conform to the current presentation. This revised presentation does not have an effect on the Company’s historical consolidated income from operations or net income, nor does it have any impact on its consolidated balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income or statements of cash flows. Presented below is a summary of the effects of this revised presentation on PBF Energy’s historical statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017:

(1) Amounts disclosed include the retrospective adjustments recorded as part of the adoption of ASU 2017-07, as defined below under “Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance”.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 (Topic 606) “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” (“ASC 606”). ASC 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605 “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC 605”), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted ASC 606 as of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method. See “Note 2 - Revenues” for further details.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, “Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” (“ASU 2017-07”), which provides guidance to improve the reporting of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement and on the components eligible for capitalization in assets. Under the new guidance, employers will present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in assets. Additionally, under this guidance, employers will present the other non-service components of the net periodic benefit cost separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income, if one is presented. Employers will apply the guidance on the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement retrospectively. The guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost in assets to the service cost component will be applied prospectively. The guidance includes a practical expedient allowing entities to estimate amounts for comparative periods using the information previously disclosed in their pension and other postretirement benefit plan note to the financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 effective January 1, 2018 and applied the new guidance retrospectively in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded income of $277 and $555, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded expense of $101 and $202, respectively. These income and expenses have been recorded within Other income (expense) for the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost that were historically recorded within Operating expenses and General and administrative expenses.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”), which provides guidance to increase clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost and complexity when applying the existing accounting guidance on changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 require an entity to account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (i) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified; (ii) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified; and (iii) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance in ASU 2017-09 should be applied prospectively. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not materially impact its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), to increase the transparency and comparability about leases among entities. Additional ASUs have been issued subsequent to ASU 2016-02 to provide additional clarification and implementation guidance for leases related to ASU 2016-02 related to, among other things, the application of certain practical expedients, the rate implicit in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments (collectively, the Company refers to ASU 2016-02 and these additional ASUs as the “Updated Lease Guidance”). The Updated Lease Guidance requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a corresponding lease asset for virtually all lease contracts. It also requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. The Updated Lease Guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. While early adoption is permitted, the Company will not early adopt the Updated Lease Guidance. The Company has established a working group to study and lead the implementation of the Updated Lease Guidance and has instituted a task plan designed to meet the requirements and implementation deadline. The Company has also evaluated and purchased a lease software system, completed software design and configuration of the system, and begun testing the implementation of the selected system. The working group continues to evaluate the impact of the Updated Lease Guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and the impact on its business processes and controls. While the assessment of this standard is ongoing, the Company has identified that the most significant impacts of the Updated Lease Guidance will be to bring nearly all leases on its balance sheet with “right of use assets” and “lease obligation liabilities” as well as accelerating recognition of the interest expense component of financing leases. The new standard will also require additional disclosures for financing and operating leases.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” (“ASU 2017-12”). The amendments in ASU 2017-12 more closely align the results of cash flow and fair value hedge accounting with risk management activities through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results in the financial statements. The amendments in ASU 2017-12 address specific limitations in current GAAP by expanding hedge accounting for both nonfinancial and financial risk components and by refining the measurement of hedge results to better reflect an entity’s hedging strategies. Thus, the amendments in ASU 2017-12 will enable an entity to better portray the economic results of hedging activities for certain fair value and cash flow hedges and will avoid mismatches in earnings by allowing for greater precision when measuring changes in fair value of the hedged item for certain fair value hedges. Additionally, by aligning the timing of recognition of hedge results with the earnings effect of the hedged item for cash flow and net investment hedges, and by including the earnings effect of the hedging instrument in the same income statement line item in which the earnings effect of the hedged item is presented, the results of an entity’s hedging program and the cost of executing that program will be more visible to users of financial statements. The guidance in ASU 2017-12 concerning amendments to cash flow and net investment hedge relationships that exist on the date of adoption should be applied using a modified retrospective approach (i.e., with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the initial application date). The guidance in ASU 2017-12 also provides transition relief to make it easier for entities to apply certain amendments to existing hedges (including fair value hedges) where the hedge documentation needs to be modified. The presentation and disclosure requirements of ASU 2017-12 should be applied prospectively. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Targeted Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Under ASU 2018-07, the existing employee guidance for share-based payments will apply to nonemployee share-based transactions (as long as the transaction is not effectively a form of financing), with the exception of specific guidance related to the attribution of compensation cost. The cost of nonemployee awards will continue to be recorded as if the grantor had paid cash for the goods or services. In addition, the contractual term will be able to be used in lieu of an expected term in the option-pricing model for nonemployee awards. ASU 2018-07 also specifies the following: (i) that equity-classified share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees will now be measured on the grant date, instead of the previous requirement to re-measure the awards through the performance completion date; (ii) for performance conditions, compensation cost associated with the award will be recognized when achievement of the performance condition is probable, rather than upon achievement of the performance condition; (iii) the current requirement to reassess the classification (equity or liability) for nonemployee awards upon vesting will be eliminated, except for awards in the form of convertible instruments. Finally, ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that any share-based payment awards issued to customers should be evaluated under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, an entity should only re-measure liability-classified awards that have not been settled by the date of adoption and equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Upon transition, the entity is required to measure these nonemployee awards at fair value as of the adoption date. The entity must not re-measure assets that are completed. Disclosures required at transition include the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle and, if applicable, quantitative information about the cumulative effect of the change on retained earnings or other components of equity. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

REVENUE [Abstract]

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block]

2. REVENUES

Adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

Prior to January 1, 2018, the Company recognized revenue from customers when all of the following criteria were met:  (i) persuasive evidence of an exchange arrangement existed, (ii) delivery had occurred or services had been rendered, (iii) the buyer’s price was fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability was reasonably assured. Amounts billed in advance of the period in which the service was rendered or product delivered were recorded as deferred revenue. 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policy for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers as detailed below.

The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method, which has been applied for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. The Company has applied ASC 606 only to those contracts that were not complete as of January 1, 2018. As such, the financial information for prior periods has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605. The Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment upon initially applying ASC 606 as there was not a significant impact upon adoption; however, the details of significant qualitative and quantitative disclosure changes upon implementing ASC 606 are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

As noted in “Note 15 - Segment Information”, the Company’s business consists of the Refining Segment and Logistics Segment. The following table provides information relating to the Company’s revenues for each product or group of similar products or services by segment for the periods presented:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2018			2017
Refining Segment:
Gasoline and distillates	$	6,341,757		$	4,154,375
Feedstocks and other	404,197			310,951
Asphalt and blackoils	397,203			287,731
Chemicals	202,552			179,076
Lubricants	94,761			81,118
Total	7,440,470			5,013,251
Logistics Segment:
Logistics	67,398			62,329
Total revenue prior to eliminations	7,507,868			5,075,580
Eliminations of intercompany revenue	(63,785		)	(58,355		)
Total Revenues	$	7,444,083		$	5,017,225
	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018			2017
Refining Segment:
Gasoline and distillates	$	11,336,077		$	8,243,186
Asphalt and blackoils	706,064			472,859
Feedstocks and other	642,906			535,361
Chemicals	378,660			363,499
Lubricants	176,364			148,544
Total	13,240,071			9,763,449
Logistics Segment:
Logistics	131,437			122,806
Total revenue prior to eliminations	13,371,508			9,886,255
Eliminations of intercompany revenue	(124,649		)	(114,557		)
Total Revenues	$	13,246,859		$	9,771,698

The majority of the Company’s revenues are generated from the sale of refined petroleum products reported in the Refining segment. These revenues are largely based on the current spot (market) prices of the products sold, which represent consideration specifically allocable to the products being sold on a given day, and the Company recognizes those revenues upon delivery and transfer of title to the products to our customers. The time at which delivery and transfer of title occurs is the point when the Company’s control of the products is transferred to the Company’s customers and when their performance obligation to their customers is fulfilled. Delivery and transfer in title are specifically agreed to between the Company and customers within the contracts. The Refining segment also has contracts which contain fixed pricing, tiered pricing, minimum volume features with makeup periods, or other factors that have not materially been affected by ASC 606.

Logistics segment revenue is generated by charging fees for crude oil and refined products terminaling, storing and pipeline services based on the greater of contractual minimum volume commitments, as applicable, or the delivery of actual volumes transferred based on contractual rates applied to throughput volumes. A majority of the Company’s logistics revenues are generated between intercompany transactions and are eliminated on consolidation.

Deferred Revenues

The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments are received or are due in advance of our performance, including amounts which are refundable. Deferred revenue was $4,809 and $8,933 as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The decrease in the deferred revenue balance for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily driven by the timing and extent of cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations for the comparative periods.

Our payment terms vary by the type and location of our customer and the products offered. The period between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant (i.e. generally within two months). For certain products or services and customer types, we require payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

Significant Judgment and Practical Expedients

For performance obligations related to sales of products, the Company has determined that customers are able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the benefits from, the products at the point in time that the products are delivered. The Company has determined that the transfer of control upon delivery to the customer’s requested destination accurately depicts the transfer of goods. Upon the delivery of the products and transfer of control, the Company generally has the present right to payment and the customers bear the risks and rewards of ownership of the products. We have elected the practical expedient to not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

PBF LOGISTICS LP [Abstract]

PBF Logistics LP

PBF LOGISTICS LP

PBFX is a fee-based, growth-oriented, publicly traded Delaware master limited partnership formed by PBF Energy to own or lease, operate, develop and acquire crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, storage facilities and similar logistics assets. PBFX engages in the receiving, handling, storage and transferring of crude oil, refined products, natural gas and intermediates from sources located throughout the United States and Canada for PBF Energy in support of its refineries, as well as for third party customers. As of June 30, 2018, a substantial majority of PBFX’s revenue is derived from long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with PBF Holding, which include minimum volume commitments for receiving, handling, storing and transferring crude oil, refined products and natural gas. PBF Energy also has agreements with PBFX that establish fees for certain general and administrative services and operational and maintenance services provided by PBF Holding to PBFX. These transactions, other than those with third parties, are eliminated by PBF Energy and PBF LLC in consolidation.

PBFX, a variable interest entity, is consolidated by PBF Energy through its ownership of PBF LLC. PBF LLC, through its ownership of PBF GP, has the sole ability to direct the activities of PBFX that most significantly impact its economic performance. PBF LLC is considered to be the primary beneficiary of PBFX for accounting purposes.

As of June 30, 2018, PBF LLC holds a 43.9% limited partner interest in PBFX consisting of 18,459,497 common units, with the remaining 56.1% limited partner interest held by public unit holders. PBF LLC also owns all of the incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) and indirectly owns a non-economic general partner interest in PBFX through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PBF GP, the general partner of PBFX. The IDRs entitle PBF LLC to receive increasing percentages, up to a maximum of 50.0%, of the cash PBFX distributes from operating surplus in excess of $0.345 per unit per quarter.

Knoxville Terminals Purchase

On April 16, 2018, PBFX completed the purchase of two refined product terminals located in Knoxville, Tennessee, which include product tanks, pipeline connections to the Colonial and Plantation pipeline systems and truck loading facilities (the “Knoxville Terminals”) from Cummins Terminals, Inc. for total cash consideration of approximately $58,000, excluding working capital adjustments (the “Knoxville Terminals Purchase”). The transaction was financed through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility.

The Company has the obligation to repurchase certain intermediates and finished products that are held in the Company’s refinery storage tanks at the Delaware City and Paulsboro refineries in accordance with the Inventory Intermediation Agreements with J. Aron. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, a liability is recognized for the Inventory Intermediation Agreements and is recorded at market price for the J. Aron owned inventory held in the Company’s storage tanks under the Inventory Intermediation Agreements, with any change in the market price being recorded in Cost of products and other.

The Company is subject to obligations to purchase Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”) required to comply with the Renewable Fuels Standard. The Company’s overall RINs obligation is based on a percentage of domestic shipments of on-road fuels as established by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). To the degree the Company is unable to blend the required amount of biofuels to satisfy its RINs obligation, RINs must be purchased on the open market to avoid penalties and fines. The Company records its RINs obligation on a net basis in Accrued expenses when its RINs liability is greater than the amount of RINs earned and purchased in a given period and in Prepaid and other current assets when the amount of RINs earned and purchased is greater than the RINs liability. In addition, the Company is subject to obligations to comply with federal and state legislative and regulatory measures, including regulations in the state of California pursuant to Assembly Bill 32 (“AB32”), to address environmental compliance and greenhouse gas and other emissions. These requirements include incremental costs to operate and maintain our facilities as well as to implement and manage new emission controls and programs. Renewable energy credit and emissions obligations fluctuate with the volume of applicable product sales and timing of credit purchases.

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

PBF Energy files federal and applicable state corporate income tax returns and recognizes income taxes on its pre-tax income, which to-date has consisted primarily of its share of PBF LLC’s pre-tax income (approximately 99.0% as of June 30, 2018 and approximately 96.7% as of December 31, 2017). PBF LLC is organized as a limited liability company and PBFX is a master limited partnership, both of which are treated as “flow-through” entities for federal income tax purposes and therefore are not subject to income taxes apart from the income tax attributable to the two subsidiaries acquired in connection with the acquisition of Chalmette Refining and PBF Holding’s wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, PBF Ltd, that are treated as C-Corporations for income tax purposes.

The income tax expense (benefit) in the PBF Energy condensed consolidated financial statements of operations consists of the following: 

	Three Months Ended   June 30,					Six Months Ended   June 30,
	2018		2017			2018		2017
Current income tax expense	$	669	$	901		$	752	$	1,374
Deferred income tax expense (benefit)	94,876		(72,944		)	105,735		(92,464		)
Total income tax expense (benefit)	$	95,545	$	(72,043	)	$	106,487	$	(91,090	)

Income tax expense (benefit) is based on income (loss) before taxes attributable to PBF Energy and excludes income before taxes attributable to noncontrolling interests as such interests are generally not subject to income taxes except as noted above. The difference between PBF Energy’s effective income tax rate and the United States statutory rate is reconciled below:

PBF Energy’s effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, including the impact of income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $15,534 and $26,979, respectively, was 24.9% and 24.4%, respectively. PBF Energy’s effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, including the impact of income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $5,512 and $16,559, respectively, was 40.9% and 42.3% respectively.

The decrease in effective tax rate when comparing the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 to the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017 is primarily driven by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), which was effective as of January 1, 2018. The TCJA significantly revised the U.S. tax code by, among other things, lowering the corporate income tax rate from 35.0% to 21.0%. In connection with the enactment of the TCJA, PBF Energy recorded a net tax expense of $20,153 in the year ending December 31, 2017. It is the Company’s expectation that the other legislative areas within TCJA, such as the Transition Tax and the Global Low-Taxed Intangible Income, will not have a material impact on the provision for income taxes.

The income tax expense (benefit) in the PBF LLC condensed consolidated financial statements of operations consists of the following:

	Three Months Ended   June 30,					Six Months Ended   June 30,
	2018			2017		2018			2017
Current income tax (benefit) expense	$	(26	)	$	737	$	(31	)	$	1,209
Deferred income tax (benefit) expense	(3,957		)	5,161		(4,653		)	5,123
Total income tax (benefit) expense	$	(3,983	)	$	5,898	$	(4,684	)	$	6,332

The Company has determined there are no material uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2018. The Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits.

Environmental Matters

The Company’s refineries, pipelines and related operations are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, those relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or that otherwise relate to the protection of the environment, waste management and the characteristics and the compositions of fuels. Compliance with existing and anticipated laws and regulations can increase the overall cost of operating the refineries, including remediation, operating costs and capital costs to construct, maintain and upgrade equipment and facilities.

In connection with the Paulsboro refinery acquisition, the Company assumed certain environmental remediation obligations. The Paulsboro environmental liability of $11,448 recorded as of June 30, 2018 ($10,282 as of December 31, 2017) represents the present value of expected future costs discounted at a rate of 8.0%. The current portion of the environmental liability is recorded in Accrued expenses and the non-current portion is recorded in Other long-term liabilities. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, this liability is self-guaranteed by the Company.

In connection with the acquisition of the Delaware City assets, Valero Energy Corporation (“Valero”) remains responsible for certain pre-acquisition environmental obligations up to $20,000 and the predecessor to Valero in ownership of the refinery retains other historical obligations.

In connection with the acquisition of the Delaware City assets and the Paulsboro refinery, the Company and Valero purchased ten year, $75,000 environmental insurance policies to insure against unknown environmental liabilities at each site. In connection with the Toledo refinery acquisition, Sunoco, Inc. (R&M) remains responsible for environmental remediation for conditions that existed on the closing date for twenty years from March 1, 2011, subject to certain limitations.

In connection with the acquisition of the Chalmette refinery, the Company obtained $3,936 in financial assurance (in the form of a surety bond) to cover estimated potential site remediation costs associated with an agreed to Administrative Order of Consent with the EPA. The estimated cost assumes remedial activities will continue for a minimum of thirty years. Further, in connection with the acquisition of the Chalmette refinery, the Company purchased a ten year, $100,000 environmental insurance policy to insure against unknown environmental liabilities at the refinery. At the time the Company acquired Chalmette refinery it was subject to a Consolidated Compliance Order and Notice of Potential Penalty (the “Order”) issued by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (“LDEQ”) covering deviations from 2009 and 2010. Chalmette Refining and LDEQ subsequently entered into a dispute resolution agreement to negotiate the resolution of deviations on or before December 31, 2014. On May 18, 2018 the Order was settled by LDEQ and the Chalmette refinery for an administrative penalty of $741, of which $100 has been paid in cash and the remainder has been or will be spent on beneficial environmental projects.

On December 28, 2016, DNREC issued a Coastal Zone Act permit (the “Ethanol Permit”) to DCR allowing the utilization of existing tanks and existing marine loading equipment at their existing facilities to enable denatured ethanol to be loaded from storage tanks to marine vessels and shipped to offsite facilities. On January 13, 2017, the issuance of the Ethanol Permit was appealed by two environmental groups. On February 27, 2017, the Coastal Zone Industrial Board (the “Coastal Zone Board”) held a public hearing and dismissed the appeal, determining that the appellants did not have standing. The appellants filed an appeal of the Coastal Zone Board’s decision with the Delaware Superior Court (the “Superior Court”) on March 30, 2017. On January 19, 2018, the Superior Court rendered an Opinion regarding the decision of the Coastal Zone Board to dismiss the appeal of the Ethanol Permit for the ethanol project. The Judge determined that the record created by the Coastal Zone Board was insufficient for the Superior Court to make a decision, and therefore remanded the case back to the Coastal Zone Board to address the deficiency in the record. Specifically, the Superior Court directed the Coastal Zone Board to address any evidence concerning whether the appellants’ claimed injuries would be affected by the increased quantity of ethanol shipments. During the hearing before the Coastal Zone Board on standing, one of the appellants’ witnesses made a reference to the flammability of ethanol, without any indication of the significance of flammability/ explosivity to specific concerns. Moreover, the appellants did not introduce at hearing any evidence of the relative flammability of ethanol as compared to other materials shipped to and from the refinery. However, the sole dissenting opinion from the Coastal Zone Board focused on the flammability/explosivity issue, alleging that the appellants’ testimony raised the issue as a distinct basis for potential harms. Once the Board responds to the remand, it will go back to the Superior Court to complete its analysis and issue a decision.

At the time the Company acquired the Toledo refinery, the EPA had initiated an investigation into the compliance of the refinery with EPA standards governing flaring pursuant to Section 114 of the Clean Air Act. On February 1, 2013, the EPA issued an Amended Notice of Violation, and on September 20, 2013, the EPA issued a Notice of Violation and Finding of Violation to Toledo refinery, alleging certain violations of the Clean Air Act at its Plant 4 and Plant 9 flares since the acquisition of the refinery on March 1, 2011. Toledo refinery and the EPA subsequently entered into tolling agreements pending settlement discussions. Although the resolution has not been finalized, the civil administrative penalty is anticipated to be approximately $645 including supplemental environmental projects. To the extent the administrative penalty exceeds such amount, it is not expected to be material to the Company.

In connection with the acquisition of the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets, the Company assumed certain pre-existing environmental liabilities totaling $133,928 as of June 30, 2018 ($136,487 as of December 31, 2017), related to certain environmental remediation obligations to address existing soil and groundwater contamination and monitoring activities and other clean-up activities, which reflects the current estimated cost of the remediation obligations. The current portion of the environmental liability is recorded in Accrued expenses and the non-current portion is recorded in Other long-term liabilities. In addition, in connection with the acquisition of the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets, the Company purchased a ten year, $100,000 environmental insurance policy to insure against unknown environmental liabilities. Furthermore, in connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed responsibility for certain specified environmental matters that occurred prior to the Company’s ownership of the refinery and the logistics assets, including specified incidents and/or notices of violations (“NOVs”) issued by regulatory agencies in various years before the Company’s ownership, including the Southern California Air Quality Management District (“SCAQMD”) and the Division of Occupational Safety and Health of the State of California (“Cal/OSHA”).

Subsequent to the acquisition, further NOVs were issued by the SCAQMD, Cal/OSHA, the City of Torrance, the City of Torrance Fire Department, and the Los Angeles County Sanitation District related to alleged operational violations, emission discharges and/or flaring incidents at the refinery and the logistics assets both before and after the Company’s acquisition. EPA in November 2016 conducted a Risk Management Plan (“RMP”) inspection following the acquisition related to Torrance operations and issued preliminary findings in March 2017 concerning RMP potential operational violations. EPA and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) in December 2016 conducted a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) inspection following the acquisition related to Torrance operations and also issued in March 2017 preliminary findings concerning RCRA potential operational violations. In April 2017, EPA referred the RCRA preliminary findings to DTSC for final resolution. On March 1, 2018, the Company received a notice of intent to sue from Environmental Integrity Project, on behalf of Environment California, under RCRA with respect to the alleged violations from EPA’s and DTSC’s December 2016 inspection. On March 2, 2018, DTSC issued an order to correct alleged RCRA violations relating to the accumulation of oil bearing materials in roll off bins during 2016 and 2017. On June 14, 2018, the Torrance refinery and DTSC reached settlement regarding the oil bearing materials in the form of a stipulation and order, wherein the Torrance refinery agreed that it would recycle or properly dispose of the oil bearing materials by the end of 2018 and pay an administrative penalty of $150. Following this settlement, in June 2018, DTSC referred the remaining alleged RCRA violations from EPA’s and DTSC’s December 2016 inspection to the California Attorney General for final resolution. The Torrance refinery and the California Attorney General are in discussions to resolve these remaining alleged RCRA violations. Other than the $150 DTSC administrative penalty, no other settlement or penalty demands have been received to date with respect to any of the other NOVs, preliminary findings, or order that are in excess of $100. As the ultimate outcomes are uncertain, the Company cannot currently estimate the final amount or timing of their resolution but any such amount is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, individually or in the aggregate.

In connection with the PBFX Plains Asset Purchase, PBFX is responsible for the environmental remediation costs for conditions that existed on the closing date up to a maximum of $250 per year for ten years, with Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. remaining responsible for any and all additional costs above such amounts during such period. The environmental liability of $1,668 recorded as of June 30, 2018 ($1,923 as of December 31, 2017) represents the present value of expected future costs discounted at a rate of 1.83%. The current portion of the environmental liability is recorded in Accrued expenses and the non-current portion is recorded in Other long-term liabilities.

Applicable Federal and State Regulatory Requirements

The Company’s operations and many of the products it manufactures are subject to certain specific requirements of the Clean Air Act (the “CAA”) and related state and local regulations. The CAA contains provisions that require capital expenditures for the installation of certain air pollution control devices at the Company’s refineries. Subsequent rule making authorized by the CAA or similar laws or new agency interpretations of existing rules, may necessitate additional expenditures in future years.

In 2010, New York State adopted a Low-Sulfur Heating Oil mandate that, beginning July 1, 2012, requires all heating oil sold in New York State to contain no more than 15 parts per million (“PPM”) sulfur. Since July 1, 2012, other states in the Northeast market began requiring heating oil sold in their state to contain no more than 15 PPM sulfur. Currently, all of the Northeastern states and Washington DC have adopted sulfur controls on heating oil. Most of the Northeastern states will now require heating oil with 15 PPM or less sulfur by July 1, 2018 (except for Pennsylvania and Maryland - where less than 500 PPM sulfur is required). All of the heating oil the Company currently produces meets these specifications. The mandate and other requirements do not currently have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The EPA issued the final Tier 3 Gasoline standards on March 3, 2014 under the CAA. This final rule establishes more stringent vehicle emission standards and further reduces the sulfur content of gasoline starting in January 2017. The new standard is set at 10 PPM sulfur in gasoline on an annual average basis starting January 1, 2017, with a credit trading program to provide compliance flexibility. The EPA responded to industry comments on the proposed rule and maintained the per gallon sulfur cap on gasoline at the existing 80 PPM cap. The refineries are complying with these new requirements as planned, either directly or using flexibility provided by sulfur credits generated or purchased in advance as an economic optimization. The standards set by the new rule are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is required to comply with the Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) implemented by the EPA, which sets annual quotas for the quantity of renewable fuels (such as ethanol) that must be blended into motor fuels consumed in the United States. In July 2018, the EPA issued proposed amendments to the RFS program regulations that would establish annual percentage standards for cellulosic biofuel, biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuel, and renewable fuels that would apply to all gasoline and diesel produced in the U.S. or imported in the year 2019. In addition, the separate proposal includes a proposed biomass-based diesel applicable volume for 2020. It is likely that RIN production will continue to be lower than needed forcing obligated parties, such as the Company, to purchase cellulosic waiver credits or purchase excess RINs from suppliers on the open market.

In addition, on December 1, 2015 the EPA finalized revisions to an existing air regulation concerning Maximum Achievable Control Technologies (“MACT”) for Petroleum Refineries. The regulation requires additional continuous monitoring systems for eligible process safety valves relieving to atmosphere, minimum flare gas heat (Btu) content, and delayed coke drum vent controls to be installed by January 30, 2019. In addition, a program for ambient fence line monitoring for benzene was implemented prior to the deadline of January 30, 2018. The Company is in the process of implementing the requirements of this regulation. The regulation does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The EPA published a Final Rule to the Clean Water Act (“CWA”) Section 316(b) in August 2014 regarding cooling water intake structures, which includes requirements for petroleum refineries. The purpose of this rule is to prevent fish from being trapped against cooling water intake screens (impingement) and to prevent fish from being drawn through cooling water systems (entrainment). Facilities will be required to implement Best Technology Available (“BTA”) as soon as possible, but state agencies have the discretion to establish implementation time lines. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this regulation, and at this time does not anticipate it having a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As a result of the Torrance Acquisition, the Company is subject to greenhouse gas emission control regulations in the state of California pursuant to AB32. AB32 imposes a statewide cap on greenhouse gas emissions, including emissions from transportation fuels, with the aim of returning the state to 1990 emission levels by 2020. AB32 is implemented through two market mechanisms including the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (“LCFS”) and Cap and Trade, which was extended for an additional ten years to 2030 in July 2017. The Company is responsible for the AB32 obligations related to the Torrance refinery beginning on July 1, 2016 and must purchase emission credits to comply with these obligations. Additionally, in September 2016, the state of California enacted Senate Bill 32 (“SB32”) which further reduces greenhouse gas emissions targets to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030.

However, subsequent to the acquisition, the Company is recovering the majority of these costs from its customers, and as such does not expect this obligation to materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. To the degree there are unfavorable changes to AB32 or SB32 regulations or the Company is unable to recover such compliance costs from customers, these regulations could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

The Company is subject to obligations to purchase RINs. On February 15, 2017, the Company received a notification that EPA records indicated that PBF Holding used potentially invalid RINs that were in fact verified under the EPA’s RIN Quality Assurance Program (“QAP”) by an independent auditor as QAP A RINs. Under the regulations, use of potentially invalid QAP A RINs provided the user with an affirmative defense from civil penalties provided certain conditions are met. The Company has asserted the affirmative defense and if accepted by the EPA will not be required to replace these RINs and will not be subject to civil penalties under the program. It is reasonably possible that the EPA will not accept the Company’s defense and may assess penalties in these matters but any such amount is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As of January 1, 2011, the Company is required to comply with the EPA’s Control of Hazardous Air Pollutants From Mobile Sources, or MSAT2, regulations on gasoline that impose reductions in the benzene content of its produced gasoline. The Company purchases benzene credits to meet these requirements. The Company’s planned capital projects will reduce the amount of benzene credits that it needs to purchase. In addition, the renewable fuel standards mandate the blending of prescribed percentages of renewable fuels (e.g., ethanol and biofuels) into the Company’s produced gasoline and diesel. These new requirements, other requirements of the CAA and other presently existing or future environmental regulations may cause the Company to make substantial capital expenditures as well as the purchase of credits at significant cost, to enable its refineries to produce products that meet applicable requirements.

The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), also known as “Superfund,” imposes liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons who are considered to be responsible for the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include the current or former owner or operator of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and companies that disposed of or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances. Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to joint and several liability for investigation and the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment, for damages to natural resources and for the costs of certain health studies. As discussed more fully above, certain of the Company’s sites are subject to these laws and the Company may be held liable for investigation and remediation costs or claims for natural resource damages. It is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by hazardous substances or other pollutants released into the environment. Analogous state laws impose similar responsibilities and liabilities on responsible parties. In the Company’s current normal operations, it has generated waste, some of which falls within the statutory definition of a “hazardous substance” and some of which may have been disposed of at sites that may require cleanup under Superfund.

The Company is also currently subject to certain other existing environmental claims and proceedings. The Company believes that there is only a remote possibility that future costs related to any of these other known contingent liability exposures would have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

PBF LLC Limited Liability Company Agreement

The holders of limited liability company interests in PBF LLC, including PBF Energy, generally have to include for purposes of calculating their U.S. federal, state and local income taxes their share of any taxable income of PBF LLC, regardless of whether such holders receive cash distributions from PBF LLC. PBF Energy ultimately may not receive cash distributions from PBF LLC equal to its share of such taxable income or even equal to the actual tax due with respect to that income. For example, PBF LLC is required to include in taxable income PBF LLC’s allocable share of PBFX’s taxable income and gains (such share to be determined pursuant to the partnership agreement of PBFX), regardless of the amount of cash distributions received by PBF LLC from PBFX, and such taxable income and gains will flow-through to PBF Energy to the extent of its allocable share of the taxable income of PBF LLC. As a result, at certain times, the amount of cash otherwise ultimately available to PBF Energy on account of its indirect interest in PBFX may not be sufficient for PBF Energy to pay the amount of taxes it will owe on account of its indirect interests in PBFX.

Taxable income of PBF LLC generally is allocated to the holders of PBF LLC units (including PBF Energy) pro-rata in accordance with their respective share of the net profits and net losses of PBF LLC. In general, PBF LLC is required to make periodic tax distributions to the members of PBF LLC, including PBF Energy, pro-rata in accordance with their respective percentage interests for such period (as determined under the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of PBF LLC), subject to available cash and applicable law and contractual restrictions (including pursuant to our debt instruments) and based on certain assumptions. Generally, these tax distributions are required to be in an amount equal to our estimate of the taxable income of PBF LLC for the year multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate prescribed for an individual or corporate resident in New York, New York (taking into account the nondeductibility of certain expenses). If, with respect to any given calendar year, the aggregate periodic tax distributions were less than the actual taxable income of PBF LLC multiplied by the assumed tax rate, PBF LLC is required to make a “true up” tax distribution, no later than March 15 of the following year, equal to such difference, subject to the available cash and borrowings of PBF LLC. PBF LLC generally obtains funding to pay its tax distributions by causing PBF Holding to distribute cash to PBF LLC and from distributions it receives from PBFX.

Tax Receivable Agreement

PBF Energy entered into a tax receivable agreement with the PBF LLC Series A and PBF LLC Series B Unit holders (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”) that provides for the payment by PBF Energy to such persons of an amount equal to 85% of the amount of the benefits, if any, that PBF Energy is deemed to realize as a result of (i) increases in tax basis, as described below, and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. For purposes of the Tax Receivable Agreement, the benefits deemed realized by PBF Energy will be computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of PBF Energy (calculated with certain assumptions) to the amount of such taxes that PBF Energy would have been required to pay had there been no increase to the tax basis of the assets of PBF LLC as a result of purchases or exchanges of PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy’s Class A common stock and had PBF Energy not entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement. The term of the Tax Receivable Agreement will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless: (i) PBF Energy exercises its right to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement, (ii) PBF Energy breaches any of its material obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement or (iii) certain changes of control occur, in which case all obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will generally be accelerated and due as calculated under certain assumptions.

The payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement are obligations of PBF Energy and not of PBF LLC, PBF Holding or PBFX. In general, PBF Energy expects to obtain funding for these annual payments from PBF LLC, primarily through tax distributions, which PBF LLC makes on a pro-rata basis to its owners. Such owners include PBF Energy, which holds a 99.0% interest in PBF LLC as of June 30, 2018 (96.7% as of December 31, 2017). PBF LLC generally obtains funding to pay its tax distributions by causing PBF Holding to distribute cash to PBF LLC and from distributions it receives from PBFX.

As of June 30, 2018, PBF Energy has recognized a liability for the Tax Receivable Agreement of $391,156 ($362,142 as of December 31, 2017) reflecting the estimate of the undiscounted amounts that the Company expects to pay under the agreement.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The tables below present information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the inputs utilized to determine the fair values as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

We have elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty; however, fair value amounts by hierarchy level are presented on a gross basis in the tables below. We have posted cash margin with various counterparties to support hedging and trading activities. The cash margin posted is required by counterparties as collateral deposits and cannot be offset against the fair value of open contracts except in the event of default. We have no derivative contracts that are subject to master netting arrangements that are reflected gross on the balance sheet.

	As of June 30, 2018
	Fair Value Hierarchy						Total Gross Fair Value		Effect of Counter-party Netting		Net Carrying Value on Balance Sheet

The valuation methods used to measure financial instruments at fair value are as follows:

• Money market funds categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value based on quoted market prices and included within Cash and cash equivalents.

• The commodity contracts categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value based on quoted prices in an active market. The commodity contracts categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value using a market approach based upon future commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets.

• The commodity contracts categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy consist of commodity price swap contracts that relate to forecasted purchases of crude oil for which quoted forward market prices are not readily available due to market illiquidity. The forward prices used to value these swaps were derived using broker quotes, prices from other third party sources and other available market based data.

• The derivatives included with inventory intermediation agreement obligations and the catalyst lease obligations are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured at fair value using a market approach based upon commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets.

Non-qualified pension plan assets are measured at fair value using a market approach based on published net asset values of mutual funds as a practical expedient. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, $9,464 and $9,593, respectively, were included within Deferred charges and other assets, net for these non-qualified pension plan assets.

The table below summarizes the changes in fair value measurements of commodity contracts categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

	Three Months Ended   June 30,				Six Months Ended   June 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017

Long-term debt	$	2,214,042		$	2,320,985		$	2,175,042		$	2,286,291

(a) The estimated fair value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, was calculated based on the present value of future expected payments utilizing implied current market interest rates based on quoted prices of the 7.00% senior notes due 2023 and the 7.25% senior notes due 2025 (collectively, the “Senior Notes”), and the PBFX 6.875% senior notes due 2023 (the “PBFX 2023 Senior Notes”).

(b) The estimated fair value approximates carrying value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, as these borrowings bear interest based upon short-term floating market interest rates. As disclosed in Note 7, “Debt” and Note 17, “Subsequent Events”, on July 30, 2018, PBFX entered into the PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility, that among other things, extended the maturity date from May 2019 to July 2023. As such, the outstanding balance on the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2018 is classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

(c) Catalyst leases are valued using a market approach based upon commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets and are categorized as a Level 2 measurement. The Company has elected the fair value option for accounting for its catalyst lease repurchase obligations as the Company’s liability is directly impacted by the change in fair value of the underlying catalyst. During 2017, Delaware City Refining entered into two platinum bridge leases which were settled as of June 30, 2018 and the Company entered into a new platinum bridge lease, which will expire in the first quarter of 2019. The total outstanding balance related to these bridge leases as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $1,298 and $10,987, respectively, and is included in Current debt on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated balance sheet.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

DERIVATIVES

DERIVATIVES

The Company uses derivative instruments to mitigate certain exposures to commodity price risk. The Company entered into Inventory Intermediation Agreements that contain purchase obligations for certain volumes of intermediates and refined products. The purchase obligations related to intermediates and refined products under these agreements are derivative instruments that have been designated as fair value hedges in order to hedge the commodity price volatility of certain refinery inventory. The fair value of these purchase obligation derivatives is based on market prices of the underlying intermediates and refined products. The level of activity for these derivatives is based on the level of operating inventories.

As of June 30, 2018, there were 2,868,426 barrels of intermediates and refined products (3,000,142 barrels at December 31, 2017) outstanding under these derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges. These volumes represent the notional value of the contract.

The Company also enters into economic hedges primarily consisting of commodity derivative contracts that are not designated as hedges and are used to manage price volatility in certain crude oil and feedstock inventories as well as crude oil, feedstock, and refined product sales or purchases. The objective in entering into economic hedges is consistent with the objectives discussed above for fair value hedges. As of June 30, 2018, there were 22,752,000 barrels of crude oil and 5,293,000 barrels of refined products (22,348,000 and 1,989,000, respectively, as of December 31, 2017), outstanding under short and long term commodity derivative contracts not designated as hedges representing the notional value of the contracts.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s operations are organized into two reportable segments, Refining and Logistics. Operations that are not included in the Refining and Logistics segments are included in Corporate. Intersegment transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements and are included in Eliminations.

Refining

The Company’s Refining segment includes the operations of its five refineries, including certain related logistics assets that are not owned by PBFX. The Company’s refineries are located in Toledo, Ohio, Delaware City, Delaware, Paulsboro, New Jersey, New Orleans, Louisiana and Torrance, California. The refineries produce unbranded transportation fuels, heating oil, petrochemical feedstocks, lubricants and other petroleum products in the United States. The Company purchases crude oil, other feedstocks and blending components from various third-party suppliers. The Company sells products throughout the Northeast, Midwest, Gulf Coast and West Coast of the United States, as well as in other regions of the United States and Canada, and is able to ship products to other international destinations.

Logistics

The Company’s Logistics segment is comprised of PBFX, a publicly traded master limited partnership, formed to own or lease, operate, develop and acquire crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, storage facilities and similar logistics assets. PBFX’s assets primarily consist of rail and truck terminals and unloading racks, tank farms and pipelines that were acquired from or contributed by PBF LLC and are located at, or nearby, the Company’s refineries. PBFX provides various rail, truck and marine terminaling services, pipeline transportation services and storage services to PBF Holding and/or its subsidiaries and third party customers through fee-based commercial agreements. PBFX currently does not generate significant third party revenue and intersegment related-party revenues are eliminated in consolidation. From a PBF Energy and PBF LLC perspective, the Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the Logistics segment as a whole without regard to any of PBFX’s individual operating segments.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based primarily on income from operations. Income from operations includes those revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to management of the respective segment. The Logistics segment’s revenues include intersegment transactions with the Company’s Refining segment at prices the Company believes are substantially equivalent to the prices that could have been negotiated with unaffiliated parties with respect to similar services. Activities of the Company’s business that are not included in the two operating segments are included in Corporate. Such activities consist primarily of corporate staff operations and other items that are not specific to the normal operations of the two operating segments. The Company does not allocate non-operating income and expense items, including income taxes, to the individual segments. The Refinery segment’s operating subsidiaries and PBFX are primarily pass-through entities with respect to income taxes.

Total assets of each segment consist of property, plant and equipment, inventories, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables and other assets directly associated with the segment’s operations. Corporate assets consist primarily of deferred tax assets, property, plant and equipment and other assets not directly related to the Company’s refinery and logistic operations.

Disclosures regarding the Company’s reportable segments with reconciliations to consolidated totals for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 are presented below. In connection with the adoption of ASU 2017-07, the accompanying segment information has been retrospectively adjusted, for all periods presented, to reflect the reclassification of certain net periodic benefit costs from Operating expenses and General and administrative expenses to Other income (expense).

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

NET INCOME PER SHARE OF PBF ENERGY

NET INCOME PER SHARE OF PBF ENERGY

The Company grants certain equity-based compensation awards to employees and non-employee directors that are considered to be participating securities. Due to the presence of participating securities, the Company has calculated net income per share of Class A common stock using the two-class method.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share of Class A common stock attributable to PBF Energy:

	Three Months Ended   June 30,						Six Months Ended   June 30,
Basic Earnings Per Share:	2018			2017			2018			2017
Allocation of earnings:
Net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders	$	272,153		$	(109,663	)	$	302,519		$	(140,740	)
Less: Income allocated to participating securities	197			269			398			539
Income (loss) available to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders - basic	$	271,956		$	(109,932	)	$	302,121		$	(141,279	)

Basic net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy per Class A common share	$	2.41		$	(1.01	)	$	2.70		$	(1.30	)
Diluted Earnings Per Share:
Numerator:
Income (loss) available to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders - basic	$	271,956		$	(109,932	)	$	302,121		$	(141,279	)
Plus: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest (1)	6,108			—			7,396			—
Less: Income tax expense on net income attributable to noncontrolling interest (1)	(1,613		)	—			(1,953		)	—
Numerator for diluted net income (loss) per Class A common share - net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders (1)	$	276,451		$	(109,932	)	$	307,564		$	(141,279	)
Denominator:(1)
Denominator for basic net income (loss) per Class A common share-weighted average shares	112,875,813			108,779,992			111,853,774			108,770,237
Effect of dilutive securities:
Conversion of PBF LLC Series A Units	1,838,196			—			2,681,980			—
Common stock equivalents (2)	1,695,264			—			1,214,173			—
Denominator for diluted net income (loss) per Class A common share-adjusted weighted average shares	116,409,273			108,779,992			115,749,927			108,770,237
Diluted net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders per Class A common share	$	2.37		$	(1.01	)	$	2.66		$	(1.30	)
__________

(1) The diluted earnings per share calculation generally assumes the conversion of all outstanding PBF LLC Series A Units to Class A common stock of PBF Energy. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, the net income attributable to PBF Energy, used in the numerator of the diluted earnings per share calculation is adjusted to reflect the net income, as well as the corresponding income tax expense (based on a 26.4% estimated annualized statutory corporate tax rate) attributable to the converted units.

The potential conversion of 3,828,871 and 3,835,999 PBF LLC Series A Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, were excluded from the denominator in computing diluted net income per share because including them would have had an antidilutive effect. As the PBF LLC Series A Units were not included, the numerator used in the calculation of diluted net income per share was equal to the numerator used in the calculation of basic net income per share and does not include the net income and related income tax expense associated with the potential conversion of the PBF LLC Series A Units.

(2) Represents an adjustment to weighted-average diluted shares outstanding to assume the full exchange of common stock equivalents, including options and warrants for PBF LLC Series A Units and options for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock as calculated under the treasury stock method (to the extent the impact of such exchange would not be anti-dilutive). Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 12,500 and 233,250 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 7,278,142 and 7,278,142 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

2018 Revolving Credit Agreement

On May 2, 2018, PBF Holding and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, as borrowers or subsidiary guarantors, replaced its existing asset-based revolving credit agreement dated as of August 15, 2014 (the “August 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement”) with a new asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “2018 Revolving Credit Agreement"). The 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement has a maximum commitment of $3,400,000, a maturity date of May 2023 and redefines certain components of the Borrowing Base (as defined in the credit agreement) to make more funding available for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin (all as defined in the credit agreement). The Applicable Margin ranges from 0.25% to 1.00% for Alternative Base Rate Loans and from 1.25% to 2.00% for Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case depending on our corporate credit rating. In addition, an accordion feature allows for commitments of up to $3,500,000. The LC Participation Fee ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s corporate credit rating and the Fronting Fee is capped at 0.25%. The 2018 Revolving Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants by PBF Holding and the other borrowers, as well as customary events of default and indemnification obligations.

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there was $350,000 and $350,000, respectively, outstanding under the revolving credit agreements.

PBFX Revolving Credit Facility

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the PBF Energy financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the PBF LLC financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on March 13, 2018 by PBF Logistics LP. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Change in Presentation

In 2017, the Company determined that it would revise the presentation of certain line items on its consolidated statements of operations to enhance its disclosure under the requirements of Rule 5-03 of Regulation S-X. The revised presentation is comprised of the inclusion of a subtotal within costs and expenses referred to as “Cost of sales” and the reclassification of total depreciation and amortization expense between such amounts attributable to cost of sales and other operating costs and expenses. The amount of depreciation and amortization expense that is presented separately within the “Cost of Sales” subtotal represents depreciation and amortization of refining and logistics assets that are integral to the refinery production process.

The historical comparative information has been revised to conform to the current presentation. This revised presentation does not have an effect on the Company’s historical consolidated income from operations or net income, nor does it have any impact on its consolidated balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income or statements of cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 (Topic 606) “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” (“ASC 606”). ASC 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605 “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC 605”), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted ASC 606 as of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method. See “Note 2 - Revenues” for further details.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, “Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” (“ASU 2017-07”), which provides guidance to improve the reporting of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement and on the components eligible for capitalization in assets. Under the new guidance, employers will present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in assets. Additionally, under this guidance, employers will present the other non-service components of the net periodic benefit cost separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income, if one is presented. Employers will apply the guidance on the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement retrospectively. The guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost in assets to the service cost component will be applied prospectively. The guidance includes a practical expedient allowing entities to estimate amounts for comparative periods using the information previously disclosed in their pension and other postretirement benefit plan note to the financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 effective January 1, 2018 and applied the new guidance retrospectively in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded income of $277 and $555, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded expense of $101 and $202, respectively. These income and expenses have been recorded within Other income (expense) for the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost that were historically recorded within Operating expenses and General and administrative expenses.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”), which provides guidance to increase clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost and complexity when applying the existing accounting guidance on changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 require an entity to account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (i) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified; (ii) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified; and (iii) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance in ASU 2017-09 should be applied prospectively. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not materially impact its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), to increase the transparency and comparability about leases among entities. Additional ASUs have been issued subsequent to ASU 2016-02 to provide additional clarification and implementation guidance for leases related to ASU 2016-02 related to, among other things, the application of certain practical expedients, the rate implicit in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments (collectively, the Company refers to ASU 2016-02 and these additional ASUs as the “Updated Lease Guidance”). The Updated Lease Guidance requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a corresponding lease asset for virtually all lease contracts. It also requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. The Updated Lease Guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. While early adoption is permitted, the Company will not early adopt the Updated Lease Guidance. The Company has established a working group to study and lead the implementation of the Updated Lease Guidance and has instituted a task plan designed to meet the requirements and implementation deadline. The Company has also evaluated and purchased a lease software system, completed software design and configuration of the system, and begun testing the implementation of the selected system. The working group continues to evaluate the impact of the Updated Lease Guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and the impact on its business processes and controls. While the assessment of this standard is ongoing, the Company has identified that the most significant impacts of the Updated Lease Guidance will be to bring nearly all leases on its balance sheet with “right of use assets” and “lease obligation liabilities” as well as accelerating recognition of the interest expense component of financing leases. The new standard will also require additional disclosures for financing and operating leases.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” (“ASU 2017-12”). The amendments in ASU 2017-12 more closely align the results of cash flow and fair value hedge accounting with risk management activities through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results in the financial statements. The amendments in ASU 2017-12 address specific limitations in current GAAP by expanding hedge accounting for both nonfinancial and financial risk components and by refining the measurement of hedge results to better reflect an entity’s hedging strategies. Thus, the amendments in ASU 2017-12 will enable an entity to better portray the economic results of hedging activities for certain fair value and cash flow hedges and will avoid mismatches in earnings by allowing for greater precision when measuring changes in fair value of the hedged item for certain fair value hedges. Additionally, by aligning the timing of recognition of hedge results with the earnings effect of the hedged item for cash flow and net investment hedges, and by including the earnings effect of the hedging instrument in the same income statement line item in which the earnings effect of the hedged item is presented, the results of an entity’s hedging program and the cost of executing that program will be more visible to users of financial statements. The guidance in ASU 2017-12 concerning amendments to cash flow and net investment hedge relationships that exist on the date of adoption should be applied using a modified retrospective approach (i.e., with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the initial application date). The guidance in ASU 2017-12 also provides transition relief to make it easier for entities to apply certain amendments to existing hedges (including fair value hedges) where the hedge documentation needs to be modified. The presentation and disclosure requirements of ASU 2017-12 should be applied prospectively. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Targeted Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Under ASU 2018-07, the existing employee guidance for share-based payments will apply to nonemployee share-based transactions (as long as the transaction is not effectively a form of financing), with the exception of specific guidance related to the attribution of compensation cost. The cost of nonemployee awards will continue to be recorded as if the grantor had paid cash for the goods or services. In addition, the contractual term will be able to be used in lieu of an expected term in the option-pricing model for nonemployee awards. ASU 2018-07 also specifies the following: (i) that equity-classified share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees will now be measured on the grant date, instead of the previous requirement to re-measure the awards through the performance completion date; (ii) for performance conditions, compensation cost associated with the award will be recognized when achievement of the performance condition is probable, rather than upon achievement of the performance condition; (iii) the current requirement to reassess the classification (equity or liability) for nonemployee awards upon vesting will be eliminated, except for awards in the form of convertible instruments. Finally, ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that any share-based payment awards issued to customers should be evaluated under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, an entity should only re-measure liability-classified awards that have not been settled by the date of adoption and equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Upon transition, the entity is required to measure these nonemployee awards at fair value as of the adoption date. The entity must not re-measure assets that are completed. Disclosures required at transition include the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle and, if applicable, quantitative information about the cumulative effect of the change on retained earnings or other components of equity. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Schedule of Fair Value, Assets and Liabilities Measured on Recurring Basis

The tables below present information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the inputs utilized to determine the fair values as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

We have elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty; however, fair value amounts by hierarchy level are presented on a gross basis in the tables below. We have posted cash margin with various counterparties to support hedging and trading activities. The cash margin posted is required by counterparties as collateral deposits and cannot be offset against the fair value of open contracts except in the event of default. We have no derivative contracts that are subject to master netting arrangements that are reflected gross on the balance sheet.

Long-term debt	$	2,214,042		$	2,320,985		$	2,175,042		$	2,286,291

(a) The estimated fair value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, was calculated based on the present value of future expected payments utilizing implied current market interest rates based on quoted prices of the 7.00% senior notes due 2023 and the 7.25% senior notes due 2025 (collectively, the “Senior Notes”), and the PBFX 6.875% senior notes due 2023 (the “PBFX 2023 Senior Notes”).

(b) The estimated fair value approximates carrying value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, as these borrowings bear interest based upon short-term floating market interest rates. As disclosed in Note 7, “Debt” and Note 17, “Subsequent Events”, on July 30, 2018, PBFX entered into the PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility, that among other things, extended the maturity date from May 2019 to July 2023. As such, the outstanding balance on the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2018 is classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

(c) Catalyst leases are valued using a market approach based upon commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets and are categorized as a Level 2 measurement. The Company has elected the fair value option for accounting for its catalyst lease repurchase obligations as the Company’s liability is directly impacted by the change in fair value of the underlying catalyst.

Less: Income tax expense on net income attributable to noncontrolling interest (1)	(1,613		)	—			(1,953		)	—
Numerator for diluted net income (loss) per Class A common share - net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders (1)	$	276,451		$	(109,932	)	$	307,564		$	(141,279	)
Denominator:(1)

Effect of dilutive securities:
Conversion of PBF LLC Series A Units	1,838,196			—			2,681,980			—
Common stock equivalents (2)	1,695,264			—			1,214,173			—
Denominator for diluted net income (loss) per Class A common share-adjusted weighted average shares	116,409,273			108,779,992			115,749,927			108,770,237
Diluted net income (loss) attributable to PBF Energy Inc. stockholders per Class A common share	$	2.37		$	(1.01	)	$	2.66		$	(1.30	)
__________

(1) The diluted earnings per share calculation generally assumes the conversion of all outstanding PBF LLC Series A Units to Class A common stock of PBF Energy. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, the net income attributable to PBF Energy, used in the numerator of the diluted earnings per share calculation is adjusted to reflect the net income, as well as the corresponding income tax expense (based on a 26.4% estimated annualized statutory corporate tax rate) attributable to the converted units.

The potential conversion of 3,828,871 and 3,835,999 PBF LLC Series A Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, were excluded from the denominator in computing diluted net income per share because including them would have had an antidilutive effect. As the PBF LLC Series A Units were not included, the numerator used in the calculation of diluted net income per share was equal to the numerator used in the calculation of basic net income per share and does not include the net income and related income tax expense associated with the potential conversion of the PBF LLC Series A Units.

(2) Represents an adjustment to weighted-average diluted shares outstanding to assume the full exchange of common stock equivalents, including options and warrants for PBF LLC Series A Units and options for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock as calculated under the treasury stock method (to the extent the impact of such exchange would not be anti-dilutive). Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 12,500 and 233,250 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 7,278,142 and 7,278,142 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

[1] The estimated fair value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, was calculated based on the present value of future expected payments utilizing implied current market interest rates based on quoted prices of the 7.00% senior notes due 2023 and the 7.25% senior notes due 2025 (collectively, the “Senior Notes”), and the PBFX 6.875% senior notes due 2023 (the “PBFX 2023 Senior Notes”).

[2] Catalyst leases are valued using a market approach based upon commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets and are categorized as a Level 2 measurement. The Company has elected the fair value option for accounting for its catalyst lease repurchase obligations as the Company’s liability is directly impacted by the change in fair value of the underlying catalyst. During 2017, Delaware City Refining entered into two platinum bridge leases which were settled as of June 30, 2018 and the Company entered into a new platinum bridge lease, which will expire in the first quarter of 2019. The total outstanding balance related to these bridge leases as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $1,298 and $10,987, respectively, and is included in Current debt on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated balance sheet.

[3] The estimated fair value approximates carrying value, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, as these borrowings bear interest based upon short-term floating market interest rates. As disclosed in Note 7, “Debt” and Note 17, “Subsequent Events”, on July 30, 2018, PBFX entered into the PBFX A&R Revolving Credit Facility, that among other things, extended the maturity date from May 2019 to July 2023. As such, the outstanding balance on the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2018 is classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

[1] (1)The diluted earnings per share calculation generally assumes the conversion of all outstanding PBF LLC Series A Units to Class A common stock of PBF Energy. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, the net income attributable to PBF Energy, used in the numerator of the diluted earnings per share calculation is adjusted to reflect the net income, as well as the corresponding income tax expense (based on a 26.4% estimated annualized statutory corporate tax rate) attributable to the converted units.The potential conversion of 3,828,871 and 3,835,999 PBF LLC Series A Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, were excluded from the denominator in computing diluted net income per share because including them would have had an antidilutive effect. As the PBF LLC Series A Units were not included, the numerator used in the calculation of diluted net income per share was equal to the numerator used in the calculation of basic net income per share and does not include the net income and related income tax expense associated with the potential conversion of the PBF LLC Series A Units

[2] Represents an adjustment to weighted-average diluted shares outstanding to assume the full exchange of common stock equivalents, including options and warrants for PBF LLC Series A Units and options for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock as calculated under the treasury stock method (to the extent the impact of such exchange would not be anti-dilutive). Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 12,500 and 233,250 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of options and warrants to purchase 7,278,142 and 7,278,142 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
