Goldman Sachs analyst Neil Mehta maintains $PBF Energy (PBF.US)$ with a hold rating, and adjusts the target price from $50 to $39.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 63.2% and a total average return of 11.1% 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 downgrade of PBF Energy was attributed to its significant exposure to refining cracks and the West Coast market. It is acknowledged, however, that PBF is now more resilient during cyclical downturns than it has been historically, owing to an improved balance sheet. Large cap refiners are preferred in what is considered a 'trough-like environment'.
PBF Energy's shares have undergone a correction aligned with lower cracks, and while previous operational issues are likely resolved, with the balance sheet still robust, the company is seen as a higher cost refiner. This perspective suggests that PBF's margins, earnings, and free cash flow may encounter more pressure compared to peers, resulting in a valuation and capital return potential that is perceived as less favorable.

高盛集團分析師Neil Mehta維持$PBF Energy (PBF.US)$持有評級，並將目標價從50美元下調至39美元。
根據TipRanks數據顯示，該分析師近一年總勝率為63.2%，總平均回報率為11.1%。
此外，綜合報道，$PBF Energy (PBF.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
PBF Energy的評級下調歸因於其存在大量煉油裂縫和西海岸市場。但是，人們承認，由於資產負債表的改善，PBF在週期性低迷時期比歷史上更具彈性。在所謂的 「槽狀環境」 中，大型煉油商是首選。
PBF Energy的股票已經進行了調整，儘管之前的運營問題可能已得到解決，資產負債表仍然強勁，但該公司被視爲成本較高的煉油商。這種觀點表明，與同行相比，PBF的利潤率、收益和自由現金流可能會遇到更大的壓力，從而導致估值和資本回報潛力被認爲不太有利。
