PBF Energy Announces Closing of Recent Equity Offering and Exercise in Full of Option to Purchase Additional Shares

PBF Energy Inc.

("PBF Energy") announced today that it has closed its previously announced underwritten public offering (the "Offering") of 11,500,000 shares of its Class A common stock, including the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional shares, at $31.00 per share. Net proceeds to PBF Energy, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated expenses, are expected to be approximately $344.0 million. PBF Energy expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund a portion of the purchase price for its recently announced pending acquisition of the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets.

In the event the Torrance acquisition does not close and it has not previously utilized the net proceeds from the Offering, PBF Energy may use them for repayment of indebtedness, working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions.
