PBF Logistics Increases Quarterly Distribution to $0.47 per Unit and

Announces Second Quarter 2017 Earnings Results


•	Second quarter net income attributable to the partners of $23.3 million, or $0.49 per common unit, and EBITDA attributable to PBFX of $35.6 million


•	Eleventh consecutive quarterly distribution increase to $0.47 per unit, representing a 57% increase to the Partnership’s minimum quarterly distribution

PARSIPPANY, NJ – August 3, 2017 – PBF Logistics LP (NYSE:PBFX, the “Partnership”) announced today second quarter 2017 net income attributable to the partners of $23.3 million, or $0.49 per common unit. During the quarter, the Partnership generated cash from operations of approximately $36.9 million, earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) of $35.6 million and distributable cash flow of $30.5 million. Included in our general and administrative expenses for the second quarter are $3.4 million, or $0.08 per common unit, of expenses related to stock-based compensation and acquisitions.

“Our second quarter performance reflects another solid operational quarter from our expanding asset base and the continued growth of our portfolio with the April acquisition of the Toledo Terminal,” said PBF Logistics GP LLC Chief Executive Officer, Tom Nimbley. “Our Paulsboro natural gas pipeline and Chalmette storage projects are progressing well, and our business development effort continues to generate a number of promising organic projects and a robust third-party acquisition pipeline. In light of our continued growth, through both acquisitions and organic projects, we are pleased that the board of directors approved our eleventh consecutive quarterly distribution increase to $0.47 per common unit.”

As of June 30, 2017, the Partnership had approximately $218.3 million of liquidity, including approximately $51.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, and access to approximately $167.2 million under its existing revolving credit facility. The Partnership intends to use its financial resources to fund organic growth projects, third-party acquisitions and future drop-downs.

Toledo Terminal Acquisition

As previously disclosed on April 17, 2017, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership acquired the Toledo, Ohio, refined products terminal assets of Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. for $10.0 million in cash. Located adjacent to PBF Energy’s Toledo refinery, the Toledo Terminal is comprised of a 10-bay truck rack and over 110,000 barrels of chemicals, clean product and additive storage capacity.

PBF Logistics Announces Increased Quarterly Distribution

The board of directors of PBF Logistics GP LLC, the Partnership’s general partner, declared a regular quarterly cash distribution of $0.47 per common unit. The distribution is payable on August 31, 2017, to unitholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2017.

This release is intended to be a qualified notice to nominees under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1446-4(b). All of the Partnership’s distributions to foreign investors are attributable to income that is effectively

connected with a United States trade or business. Accordingly, the Partnership’s distributions to foreign investors are subject to federal income tax withholding at the highest effective tax rate.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Partnership defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:


•	our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or financing methods;


•	the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unit holders;


•	our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and


•	the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.

The Partnership’s management believes that the presentation of EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, income from operations, cash from operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some but not all items that affect net income. Additionally, because EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility.

Conference Call Information

The Partnership’s senior management will host a conference call and webcast regarding quarterly results and other business matters on Thursday, August 3, 2017, at 11:00 a.m. ET. The call is being webcast and can be accessed at PBF Logistics’ website, http://www.pbflogistics.com. The call can also be heard by dialing (888) 632-3384 or (785) 424-1675, conference ID: PBFXQ217. The audio replay will be available two hours after the end of the call through August 17, 2017, by dialing (800) 839-3413 or (402) 220-7236.

Such statements are based on current expectations, forecasts and projections, including, but not limited to, anticipated financial and operating results, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions that are not historical in nature.

Results of Operations (Unaudited)

Factors Affecting Comparability

The following tables present our results of operations, related operational information, and reconciliations of net income and net cash provided by operating activity to EBITDA and distributable cash flow (both as defined below) of PBFX for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The financial information presented contains the financial results of PBFX and PNGPC (as defined below) prior to our acquisition on February 28, 2017.

On April 17, 2017, our wholly-owned subsidiary, PBF Logistics Products Terminals LLC (“PLPT”), acquired the Toledo, Ohio refined products terminal assets (the “Toledo Terminal”) from Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. (the “Toledo Terminal Acquisition”). The Toledo Terminal is directly connected to, and currently supplied by, PBF Holding Company LLC's (“PBF Holding”) Toledo Refinery. The Toledo Terminal is comprised of a ten-bay truck rack and over 110,000 barrels of chemicals, clean product and additive storage capacity.

On February 28, 2017, our wholly-owned subsidiary, PBFX Operating Company LP (“PBFX Op Co”), acquired from PBF Energy Company LLC (“PBF LLC”), a subsidiary of PBF Energy Inc. (“PBF Energy”) all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of Paulsboro Natural Gas Pipeline Company LLC (“PNGPC”) (the “PNGPC Acquisition”). PNGPC owns and operates an existing interstate natural gas pipeline which serves PBF Holding's Paulsboro Refinery (the “Paulsboro Natural Gas Pipeline”) and is subject to regulation by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”). PNGPC has FERC approval for, and is in the process of constructing, a new 24” pipeline to replace the existing pipeline, which was placed in service in August 2017.

The PNGPC Acquisition was a transfer between entities under common control. Accordingly, the financial information contained herein of PBFX has been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results of PNGPC for all periods presented. The results of PNGPC are included in the Transportation and Terminaling segment.

On August 31, 2016, PBFX Op Co acquired from PBF LLC a 50% equity interest in Torrance Valley Pipeline Company LLC (“TVPC”), with the other 50% equity interest continuing to be held by a subsidiary of PBF LLC, TVP Holding Company LLC (“TVP Holding”) (the “TVPC Acquisition”). TVPC owns the 189-mile San Joaquin Valley pipeline system with capacity of approximately 110,000 barrels per day (“bpd”) (the “Torrance Valley Pipeline”), which supports PBF Holding's Torrance Refinery. The Torrance Valley Pipeline consists of the M55, M1 and M70 pipeline systems, including 11 pipeline stations with storage capacity and truck unloading capability at two of the stations. We consolidate the financial results of TVPC, and record a noncontrolling interest for the 50% economic interest in TVPC held by TVP Holding.

On April 29, 2016, our wholly-owned subsidiary, PLPT, purchased four refined product terminals (the “East Coast Terminals”) from an affiliate of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (the “Plains Asset Purchase”). The East Coast Terminals have subsequently generated third-party revenues. Prior to the Plains Asset Purchase, we did not record third-party revenue, except for third-party revenue generated by the Delaware City Products Pipeline prior to August 2013.

As a result of the factors above, the information included in the following tables is not necessarily comparable on a year-over-year basis.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense. We define EBITDA attributable to PBFX as net income (loss) attributable to PBFX before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense attributable to PBFX, which excludes the results of acquisitions from PBF LLC prior to the effective dates of such transactions. We define distributable cash flow as EBITDA attributable to PBFX plus non-cash unit-based compensation expense, less net cash paid for interest, maintenance capital expenditures and income taxes. Distributable cash flow will not reflect changes in working capital balances. We use distributable cash flow to calculate a measure we refer to as our coverage ratio. Our coverage ratio is distributable cash flow divided by total distribution declared. EBITDA, EBITDA attributable to PBFX and distributable cash flow are not financial measures prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

While EBITDA, EBITDA attributable to PBFX and distributable cash flow are not financial measures prescribed by GAAP (“non-GAAP”), they are supplemental financial measures that management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:


•	our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of EBITDA, financing methods;


•	the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unitholders;


•	our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and


•	the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.

We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and EBITDA attributable to PBFX provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. We believe that the presentation of distributable cash flow provides useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance, as it provides investors with an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating. However, EBITDA, EBITDA attributable to PBFX and distributable cash flow should not be considered alternatives to net income, operating income, cash from operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA, EBITDA attributable to PBFX and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. EBITDA, EBITDA attributable to PBFX and distributable cash flow are reconciled to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Earnings Release Tables included herein.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other partnerships, because they may be defined differently by other partnerships in our industry, thereby limiting their utility.

(a)		See discussion of the factors affecting comparability noted on page 4. Our results of operations may not be comparable to the historical results of operations for the reasons described below: Revenues - On April 17, 2017, our wholly-owned subsidiary, PLTP, acquired the Toledo Terminal, which is accounted for as a business combination. As such, there is no revenue associated with the terminal prior to our acquisition and our results may not be comparable due to additional revenue associated with the Toledo Terminal subsequent to the close of the acquisition. The Torrance Valley Pipeline was acquired by PBF Energy on July 1, 2016 in connection with the acquisition of the Torrance Refinery and related logistical assets and was not operated by PBF Energy prior to its acquisition. Commercial agreements with PBF Energy for the Torrance Valley Pipeline commenced subsequent to our acquisition on August 31, 2016. As a result, our revenues are not comparative to prior periods. On April 29, 2016, our wholly-owned subsidiary, PLPT, purchased the East Coast Terminals, which has subsequently generated third party revenues. Prior to the Plains Asset Purchase, we did not record third-party revenue, except for third-party revenue generated by Delaware City Products Pipeline prior to August 2013. Additionally, our results may not be comparable due to additional revenue associated with the East Coast Terminals subsequent to the close of the acquisition. Operating and maintenance expenses - As a result of the Toledo Terminal Acquisition, the PNGPC Acquisition, the TVPC Acquisition and the Plains Asset Purchase, our operating expenses are not comparative to prior periods due to expenses associated with these acquired assets.

(b)		Calculated as the sum of the average throughput per day for each Terminal and Pipeline asset for the periods presented.

(c)		See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 4 for definitions of EBITDA, EBITDA attributable to PBFX, distributable cash flow and coverage ratio.

(d)		Operating information pertains to assets which are included in the Transportation and Terminaling segment. Throughput information reflects activity subsequent to execution of the commercial agreements in connection with the acquisitions of the Toledo Terminal, the Paulsboro Natural Gas Pipeline and the Torrance Valley Pipeline from PBF LLC and activity subsequent to the Plains Asset Purchase.

(e)		On August 3, 2017, we announced a quarterly cash distribution of $0.47 per limited partner unit based on the results of the second quarter of 2017. The distribution is payable on August 31, 2017 to PBFX unitholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2017. The total distribution amounts include the expected distributions to be made related to the second quarter.

(f)		Management also utilizes net debt as a metric in assessing our leverage. Net debt is a non-GAAP measure calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities from total debt, including our affiliate note payable. We believe this measurement is 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. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our debt levels as reported under U.S. GAAP. Our definition of net debt may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other partnerships, because it may be defined differently by other partnerships in our industry, thereby limiting its utility. Our net debt as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $493,350 and $467,430, respectively.

(g)		Our subsidiary, PBFX Op Co, holds a 50% controlling interest in TVPC, with the other 50% interest in TVPC owned by TVP Holding, an indirect subsidiary of PBF Holding. PBFX Op Co is also the sole managing member of TVPC. We, through our ownership of PBFX Op Co, consolidate the financial results of TVPC, and record a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in TVPC held by TVP Holding. Noncontrolling interest on the condensed consolidated statements of operations includes the portion of net income or loss attributable to the economic interest in TVPC held by TVP Holding. Noncontrolling interest on the condensed consolidated balance sheets includes the portion of net assets of TVPC attributable to TVP Holding.

(h)		PBFX bases its calculation of net income per limited partner unit on the weighted-average number of limited partner units outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of common and subordinated units reflects the conversion of the subordinated units to common units on June 1, 2017.
