PBF Energy Inc. reported a significant turnaround in the third quarter of 2025, achieving net income of $171.7 million and income from operations of $285.9 million, compared to losses in the prior year. This improvement was largely due to substantial gains from insurance recoveries related to the Martinez refinery fire and the sale of terminal assets, alongside favorable market conditions in some regions. However, the company still faced pressures from narrow light-heavy differentials and ongoing limited operations at the Martinez refinery.
PBF Energy reported a net income of $171.7 million and diluted EPS of $1.45 for Q3 2025, a significant improvement from a net loss of $289.1 million and $(2.49) EPS in Q3 2024.
Income from operations reached $285.9 million in Q3 2025, reversing a loss of $386.3 million in the same period last year, primarily due to $250.0 million in insurance recoveries and a $94.0 million gain on terminal asset sales.
Adjusted fully-converted net loss, excluding special items, was $(60.3) million, or $(0.52) per share, indicating underlying operational challenges despite the reported net income.
The Martinez refinery continues to operate under limited capacity, with full restoration planned by year-end 2025, and the company expects rebuilding costs to be largely covered by insurance.
PBF Energy anticipates continued volatility in the near term but maintains a favorable long-term outlook due to tight global supply and demand balances. The company is focused on conservative balance sheet management, debt reduction, and achieving significant savings through its Refining Business Improvement (RBI) initiative.
