PBF Energy reports Q2 adjusted EPS ($1.03), consensus ($1.21)

Reports Q2 revenue $7.48B, consensus $6.61B. Matt Lucey, PBF‘s President and CEO, said, “Performance improved across all PBF’s regions in the second quarter. We successfully restored partial operations at Martinez and expect to run at reduced capacity until repairs can be completed. The rest of our system ran as expected and benefited from the seasonally higher margin environment.” Mr. Lucey continued, “We continue to face challenges in the feedstock markets, specifically the narrow light-heavy differentials, but near-term volatility in our cyclical, commodity-dependent business does not reflect our broader, favorable outlook that global supply and demand balances remain tight.”
