PARSIPPANY, N.J., April 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- PBF Energy Inc. (NYSE:PBF) today reported first quarter 2021 income from operations of $57.7 million as compared to loss from operations of $1,366.8 million for the first quarter of 2020. Excluding special items, first quarter 2021 loss from operations was $317.8 million as compared to loss from operations of $134.0 million for the first quarter of 2020. PBF Energy's financial results reflect the consolidation of PBF Logistics LP (NYSE: PBFX), a master limited partnership of which PBF Energy indirectly owns the general partner and approximately 48% of the limited partner interests as of quarter-end.
The company reported first quarter 2021 net loss of $22.2 million and net loss attributable to PBF Energy Inc. of $41.3 million or $(0.34) per share. This compares to net loss of $1,062.5 million, and net loss attributable to PBF Energy Inc. of $1,065.9 million or $(8.93) per share for the first quarter 2020. Non-cash special items included in the first quarter 2021 results, which increased net income by a net, after-tax benefit of $273.9 million, or $2.27 per share, consisted of a lower-of-cost-or-market ("LCM") inventory benefit, offset by a change in fair value of the contingent consideration associated with earn-out provisions primarily related to the Martinez Acquisition and a net tax expense on remeasurement of deferred tax assets. Adjusted fully-converted net loss for the first quarter 2021, excluding special items, was $315.5 million, or $(2.61) per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis, as described below, compared to adjusted fully-converted net loss of $143.2 million or $(1.19) per share, for the first quarter 2020.
Tom Nimbley, PBF Energy's Chairman and CEO, said, "PBF's first quarter results reflect the continuing challenges of lower demand brought on by the pandemic. Our refineries operated well and at rates which mirrored demand." Mr. Nimbley continued, "We did see sequential improvement during the quarter. We ran higher in March than we did in January which reflects more favorable market conditions as the progressive vaccine rollout lead to improving demand. However, even with rising demand, the independent refining sector is facing unsustainable headwinds as a result of escalating compliance costs under the RFS program. If the program is not fixed, it will likely result in a reshaping of the U.S. refining industry and a greater reliance on foreign energy."
Mr. Nimbley concluded, "We exited the first quarter with approximately $1.5 billion in cash and with ample other sources of liquidity that we believe will support our business. We expect demand to continue its gradual improvement as the vaccine rollout and approaching herd-immunity should allow everyone to return to their normal routines."
Liquidity and Financial Position
In response to the pandemic, we have taken several steps to protect our balance sheet and increase the financial liquidity of the company. As of March 31, 2021, our liquidity was approximately $2.3 billion based on approximately $1.5 billion of cash and current availability under our asset-based lending facility. In addition, PBF Logistics LP liquidity included $44.0 million in cash and approximately $311.0 million of availability under its revolving credit facility.
Strategic Update and Outlook
Employee and operational safety continue to be an ongoing priority in our pandemic response. We implemented a number of necessary safety protocols and social distancing requirements, issued personal protective equipment to all employees and enhanced facility cleaning, with these efforts focused on protecting our dedicated front line employees who have remained on the job throughout the current crisis. As a result of our efforts, our operating facilities have remained fully-staffed by our essential workforce throughout the pandemic, and we continue supplying our critical products to our valued customers.
In response to the effects of the global pandemic, we undertook a number of measures to ensure the safety and reliability of our operations. We successfully reconfigured our East Coast refining system to maintain the most profitable elements of two refineries while reducing costs and improving our competitive position. In all of our locations, we focused on creating sustainable cost reductions that we expect will make each of our assets more regionally competitive, and continue to review our operations in order to drive profitability.
In addition to focusing on our core refining operations, we are exploring opportunities to participate in the burgeoning renewable fuels market. We previously announced a potential project to be co-located at the Chalmette refinery. This project is expected to use certain idled assets, including an idle hydrocracker, along with a newly-constructed pre-treatment unit to establish an 18,000 to 20,000 barrel per day renewable diesel production facility. We believe that with the utilization of currently idled assets, and its strategic location on the Mississippi River, our project will have a shorter time to market and reduced construction costs compared to similar greenfield projects. We are currently in advanced discussions with potential partners and expect to provide further updates in the coming months.
Consistent with our previous guidance, our refining capital spending program for the first half of 2021 is expected to be approximately $150 million. Our overall market outlook for the second half of 2021 remains constructive, with continued gradual improvement in demand, and our full-year capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $400 to $450 million. Should market conditions change from our current expectations, we expect that we will review our capital requirements and adjust as needed.
We operated our refineries at reduced rates during the first quarter and, based on current market conditions, we expect to continue to operate our refineries in response to demand for our products. In the second quarter we expect to run at higher rates in every region with total expected throughput regionally as follows: East Coast to average 225,000 to 245,000 barrels per day (bpd); Mid-Continent to average 135,000 to 145,000 bpd; Gulf Coast to average 175,000 to 185,000 bpd; and West Coast to average 290,000 to 310,000 bpd.
Adjusted Fully-Converted Results
Adjusted fully-converted results assume the exchange of all PBF Energy Company LLC Series A Units and dilutive securities into shares of PBF Energy Inc. Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis, resulting in the elimination of the noncontrolling interest and a corresponding adjustment to the company's tax provision.
Non-GAAP Measures
This earnings release, and the discussion during the management conference call, may include references to Non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures including Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) excluding special items, Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) per fully-exchanged, fully-diluted share, Income (Loss) from operations excluding special items, gross refining margin, gross refining margin excluding special items, gross refining margin per barrel of throughput, EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization), EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA. PBF believes that Non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about its operating performance and financial results. However, these measures have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be viewed in isolation or considered as alternatives for, or superior to, comparable GAAP financial measures. PBF's Non-GAAP financial measures may also differ from similarly named measures used by other companies. See the accompanying tables and footnotes in this release for additional information on the Non-GAAP measures used in this release and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

FOOTNOTES TO EARNINGS RELEASE TABLES |
||||||||||||||||||
(1) Adjusted fully-converted information is presented in this table as management believes that these Non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare our results across the periods presented and facilitates an understanding of our operating results. We also use these measures to evaluate our operating performance. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The differences between adjusted fully-converted and GAAP results are explained in footnotes 2 through 6. |
||||||||||||||||||
(2) Represents the elimination of the noncontrolling interest associated with the ownership by the members of PBF Energy Company LLC ("PBF LLC") other than PBF Energy Inc., as if such members had fully exchanged their PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy's Class A common stock. |
||||||||||||||||||
(3) Represents an adjustment to reflect PBF Energy's estimated annualized statutory corporate tax rate of approximately 26.6% and 26.3% for the 2021 and 2020 periods, respectively, applied to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest for all periods presented. The adjustment assumes the full exchange of existing PBF LLC Series A Units as described in footnote 2. |
||||||||||||||||||
(4) The Non-GAAP measures presented include adjusted fully-converted net income (loss) excluding special items, income (loss) from operations excluding special items, EBITDA excluding special items and gross refining margin excluding special items. Special items for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 relate to LCM inventory adjustments, change in fair value of contingent consideration, tax expense on the remeasurement of deferred tax assets, debt extinguishment costs and changes in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability, all as discussed further below. Additionally, the cumulative effects of all current and prior period special items on equity are shown in footnote 13.
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 useful period-over-period comparisons, such Non-GAAP measures should only be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Special Items:
LCM inventory adjustment - LCM is a GAAP requirement related to inventory valuation that mandates 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. |

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration - During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a change in fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to the Martinez Contingent Consideration which decreased income from operations and net income by $30.1 million and $22.1 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a change in the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to the Martinez Contingent Consideration which increased income from operations and net income by $52.8 million and $38.9 million, respectively. |
||||||||||||||||||
Debt Extinguishment Costs - During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded pre-tax debt extinguishment costs of $22.2 million related to the redemption of the 2023 Senior Notes. These nonrecurring charges decreased net income by $16.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. There were no such costs in the three months ended March 31, 2021. |
||||||||||||||||||
Change in Tax Receivable Agreement liability - During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a change in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability that decreased income before taxes and net income by $11.6 million and $8.5 million, respectively. There was no change to the Tax Receivable Agreement liability during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The changes in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability reflect charges or benefits attributable to changes in our obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement due to factors out of our control such as changes in tax rates, as well as periodic adjustments to our liability based, in part, on an updated estimate of the amounts that we expect to pay, using assumptions consistent with those used in our concurrent estimate of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. |
||||||||||||||||||
Net tax expense on remeasurement of deferred tax assets - During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded an increase to our deferred tax valuation allowance of $1.7 million in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets. There was no such expense in the three months ended March 31, 2020. |
||||||||||||||||||
(5) Represents an adjustment to weighted-average diluted shares outstanding to assume the full exchange of existing PBF LLC Series A Units as described in footnote 2 above. |
||||||||||||||||||
(6) 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 performance share 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 months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of performance share units and options and warrants to purchase 11,699,893 and 11,388,905 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A Units because they are anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. For periods showing a net loss, all common stock equivalents and unvested restricted stock are considered anti-dilutive. |
||||||||||||||||||
(7) EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. 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 obligations, 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. We use these Non-GAAP financial measures as a supplement to our GAAP results in order to provide additional metrics on factors and trends affecting our business. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are measures of operating performance that are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not calculated in the same manner by all companies, they are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have their limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. |
||||||||||||||||||
(8) We operate in two reportable segments: Refining and Logistics. Our operations that are not included in the Refining and Logistics segments are included in Corporate. As of March 31, 2021, the Refining segment includes the operations of our oil refineries and related facilities in Delaware City, Delaware, Paulsboro, New Jersey, Toledo, Ohio, Chalmette, Louisiana, Torrance, California and Martinez, California. The Logistics segment includes the operations of PBF Logistics LP ("PBFX"), a growth-oriented master limited partnership which owns or leases, operates, develops and acquires 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, storage facilities and pipelines, a substantial portion of which were acquired from or contributed by PBF LLC and are located at, or nearby, our 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 perspective, our chief operating decision maker evaluates the Logistics segment as a whole without regard to any of PBFX's individual operating segments. |
||||||||||||||||||
(9) As reported by Platts. |
||||||||||||||||||
(10) Gross refining margin and gross refining margin per barrel of throughput are Non-GAAP measures because they exclude refinery operating expenses, depreciation and amortization and gross margin of PBFX. Gross refining margin per barrel is gross refining margin, divided by total crude and feedstocks throughput. We believe they are important measures of operating performance and provide useful information to investors because gross refining margin per barrel is a helpful metric comparison to the industry refining margin benchmarks shown in the Market Indicators Tables, as the industry benchmarks do not include a charge for refinery operating expenses and depreciation. Other companies in our industry may not calculate gross refining margin and gross refining margin per barrel in the same manner. Gross refining margin and gross refining margin per barrel of throughput have their limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. |
||||||||||||||||||
(11) Represents refinery operating expenses, including corporate-owned logistics assets, excluding depreciation and amortization, divided by total crude oil and feedstocks throughput. |
||||||||||||||||||
(12) We define heavy crude oil as crude oil with American Petroleum Institute (API) gravity less than 24 degrees. We define medium crude oil as crude oil with API gravity between 24 and 35 degrees. We define light crude oil as crude oil with API gravity higher than 35 degrees. |
||||||||||||||||||
(13) The total debt to capitalization ratio is calculated by dividing total debt by the sum of total debt and total equity. This ratio is a measurement that management believes is useful to investors in analyzing our leverage. Net debt and the net debt to capitalization ratio are Non-GAAP measures. Net debt is calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents from total debt. We believe these measurements are also useful to investors since we have the ability to and may decide to use a portion of our cash and cash equivalents to retire or pay down our debt. Additionally, we have also presented the total debt to capitalization and net debt to capitalization ratios excluding the cumulative effects of special items on equity. |
