PARSIPPANY, N.J., May 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- PBF Energy Inc. (NYSE: PBF) today reported first quarter 2020 loss from operations of $1,366.8 million as compared to income from operations of $364.6 million for the first quarter of 2019. Excluding special items, first quarter 2020 loss from operations was $134.0 million as compared to loss from operations of $141.4 million for the first quarter of 2019. PBF Energy's financial results reflect the consolidation of PBF Logistics LP (NYSE: PBFX), a master limited partnership of which PBF indirectly owns the general partner and approximately 48% of the limited partner interests as of quarter-end.

The company reported first quarter 2020 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. This compares to net income of $241.4 million, and net income attributable to PBF Energy Inc. of $229.2 million or $1.89 per share for the first quarter 2019. Special items included in the first quarter 2020 results, which increased the net loss by a net, after-tax loss of $933.5 million, or $7.74 per share, consisted of a lower-of-cost-or-market ("LCM") inventory adjustment, change in Tax Receivable Agreement liability, debt extinguishment costs related to the redemption of the 7.00% senior notes due 2023 (the "2023 Senior Notes") and change in the fair value of the earn-out provision included in connection with the Martinez acquisition (the "Contingent Consideration"). Adjusted fully-converted net loss for the first quarter 2020, excluding special items, was $143.2 million, or $(1.19) per share on a fully-exchanged, fully-diluted basis, as described below, compared to adjusted fully-converted net loss of $143.0 million or $(1.18) per share, for the first quarter 2019.

Tom Nimbley, PBF Energy's Chairman and CEO, said, "2020 has presented unexpected and unprecedented challenges and PBF has responded by taking several significant actions to ensure we navigate the current market successfully. Our employees have readily adjusted to new working conditions and continue to provide essential services." Mr. Nimbley continued, "We implemented aggressive cost reduction measures and scaled back operations in response to the near-term, generational decline in demand. We took additional steps to increase our capital resources through the sale of hydrogen plants and a successful debt offering, thereby ensuring we have the resources to manage our business through the current and potential future downturns." Mr. Nimbley concluded, "As more regions across the country are beginning the process of returning to work, we are already seeing an increase in product demand. We are at a delicate intersection on this path and PBF will continue to run our operations in a safe, reliable and environmentally responsible manner and we look forward to a sustainable return to work."

Liquidity and Financial Position
As of May 1, 2020, after giving effect to the successful $1 billion notes offering in May, our liquidity was approximately $2 billion based on our estimated $805.0 million of cash, excluding cash held at PBF Logistics LP, and $151.0 million of additional, available borrowing capacity under our asset-backed revolving credit facility. Assuming current commodity prices remain relatively constant, we expect our liquidity to improve as working capital continues to normalize in May and our Revolving Credit Facility borrowing base increases.

On May 7, 2020, PBF announced that its indirect subsidiary, PBF Holding Company LLC successfully priced $1.0 billion of 9.25% senior secured notes due 2025 in a private offering. The offering closed on May 13, 2020.

Strategic Update and Outlook
The recent outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and certain developments in the global oil markets are negatively impacting worldwide economic and commercial activity and financial markets, as well as global demand for petroleum and petrochemical products. The COVID-19 pandemic and related governmental responses have also resulted in significant business and operational disruptions, including business closures, supply chain disruptions, travel restrictions, stay-at-home orders and limitations on the availability of workforces and has resulted in significantly lower demand for refined petroleum products.

We are actively responding to the impacts from these matters on our business. In late March and through early April 2020, we started reducing the amount of crude oil processed at our refineries in response to the decreased demand for our products and we temporarily idled various units at certain of our refineries to optimize our production in light of prevailing market conditions.

In March 2020, we announced initial expense reduction efforts that should result in a reduction in our 2020 operating expenses of approximately $125 million. We have subsequently identified additional reductions and currently estimate an aggregate reduction of approximately $140 million in our 2020 operating expenses budget. In addition, we are currently operating our refineries at minimum rates, a throughput reduction of approximately 30% versus our previous expectations. As the market conditions develop and the demand outlook becomes clearer, we will continue to adjust our operations, regionally and in total, in response. We expect near-term throughput to be in the 650,000 to 750,000 barrel per range for our refining system.

In addition to the steps above with respect to our operations, we are taking the following measures, some of which were previously announced in March 2020:

Increased precautions to keep our employees healthy and safe, including social distancing, additional personal protective equipment and enhanced facility cleanings. We have not had to temporarily close any of our refineries due to a COVID-19 outbreak;
Reduced 2020 planned capital expenditures by a total of more than $350 million, an increase from our originally announced $240 million reduction. This is an estimated aggregate reduction of approximately 50% to our previous 2020 budget. Early in the second quarter, PBF completed its only major turnaround activity for 2020 at its Toledo refinery. We intend to satisfy all required safety, environmental and regulatory capital commitments, while continuing to explore further opportunities to minimize our near-term capital expenditure requirements;
Reduced corporate overhead expenses by over $20 million on an annual basis primarily through salary reductions;
Suspended PBF Energy's quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share, anticipated to preserve approximately $35 million of cash each quarter; and
Evaluating various other liquidity and cash flow optimization options.

Sale of Hydrogen Plants
On April 17, 2020, we closed on the sale of five hydrogen plants to Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. for gross cash proceeds of $530.0 million. We will enter into off-take arrangements for hydrogen on terms in line with similar arrangements in place throughout our refining system.

Martinez Refinery Acquisition
On February 1, 2020, PBF completed its previously announced acquisition of the 157,000 barrel-per-day Martinez refinery, and related logistics assets, from Equilon Enterprises LLC d/b/a Shell Oil Products US. With the addition of Martinez, PBF's total throughput capacity is now over 1 million barrels per day and our combined Nelson Complexity increased to 12.8.

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

Non-GAAP Measures
This earnings release, and the discussion during the management conference call, may include references to Non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures including Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income, Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income excluding special items, Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income per fully-exchanged, fully-diluted share, Income 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.

EARNINGS RELEASE TABLES

FOOTNOTES TO EARNINGS RELEASE TABLES

(1) Adjusted fully-converted information is presented in this table as management believes that these Non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable 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 26.3% and 26.0% for the 2020 and 2019 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 periods presented relate to LCM inventory adjustments, changes in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability, debt extinguishment costs and change in the fair value of contingent consideration, 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.

The following table includes the LCM inventory reserve as of each date presented (in millions):

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 increased net loss by $16.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. There were no such costs in the three months ended March 31, 2019.

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 increased loss before income taxes and net loss by $11.6 million and $8.5 million, respectively. 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. There was no change in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Change in fair value of Contingent Consideration - During the three months ended March 31, 2020 we recorded a change in the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to the change in our estimated earn-out liability associated with the Martinez Acquisition, which offset loss before income taxes and net loss by $52.8 million and $38.9 million, respectively.

(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, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of performance share units and options and warrants to purchase 11,388,905 and 5,111,617 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, 2020 and 2019, 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, 2020, 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.

(14) The Refining segment includes capital expenditures of $1,176.2 million for the acquisition of the Martinez refinery in the first quarter of 2020.

(15) On April 24, 2019, PBFX entered into a contribution agreement with PBF LLC (the "TVPC Contribution Agreement"), pursuant to which PBF LLC contributed to PBFX all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of TVP Holding Company LLC ("TVP Holding") for total consideration of $200.0 million (the "TVPC Acquisition"). Prior to the TVPC Acquisition, TVP Holding owned a 50% equity interest in Torrance Valley Pipeline Company LLC ("TVPC"). Subsequent to the closing of the TVPC Acquisition on May 31, 2019, PBFX owns 100% of the equity interest in TVPC.

(16) Prior to the TVPC Contribution Agreement, the Logistics segment included 100% of the income from operations of TVPC, as TVPC was consolidated by PBFX. PBFX recorded net income attributable to noncontrolling interest for the 50% equity interest in TVPC held by PBF Holding. PBF Holding (included in the Refining segment) recorded equity income in investee related to its 50% noncontrolling ownership interest in TVPC. For purposes of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, PBF Holding's equity income in investee and PBFX's net income attributable to noncontrolling interests eliminated in consolidation.
