BMO Capital analyst Phillip Jungwirth downgrades $PBF Energy (PBF.US)$ to a hold rating, and adjusts the target price from $60 to $35.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 41.3% and a total average return of 2.8% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $PBF Energy (PBF.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
The company's significant exposure to refining cracks and to the West Coast market has been highlighted, even as it's acknowledged that PBF Energy is now better positioned for cyclical downturns than before, thanks to an improved balance sheet. Despite the current market conditions, which resemble a cyclical trough, preference leans towards larger cap refiners for their relative stability.
PBF Energy shares have adjusted in price alongside lower cracks, and while previous operational challenges are likely past, the company maintains a robust balance sheet. Nevertheless, as a higher cost refiner, the margins, earnings, and free cash flow of the company may face greater pressure compared to its peers, which could result in a valuation and capital return potential that is perceived as less appealing.

BMO資本市場分析師Phillip Jungwirth下調$PBF Energy (PBF.US)$至持有評級，並將目標價從60美元下調至35美元。
根據TipRanks數據顯示，該分析師近一年總勝率為41.3%，總平均回報率為2.8%。
此外，綜合報道，$PBF Energy (PBF.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
儘管已經承認，由於資產負債表的改善，PBF Energy現在比以前更有能力應對週期性衰退，但該公司在煉油裂縫和西海岸市場面臨的巨大風險敞口已得到強調。儘管當前的市場狀況類似於週期性低谷，但由於其相對穩定，偏向於市值較大的煉油廠。
PBF Energy的股票在調整價格的同時降低了裂縫，儘管以前的運營挑戰可能已經過去，但該公司保持了強勁的資產負債表。儘管如此，作爲成本較高的煉油商，與同行相比，該公司的利潤率、收益和自由現金流可能面臨更大的壓力，這可能導致估值和資本回報潛力被認爲不那麼吸引人。
