what happened

PBF Energy posted record third-quarter earnings, with net income reaching $1.54 billion. Stronger refining margins and higher throughput drove the result, while higher RFS costs and freight expenses partly offset the gains, according to TradingView.

Over nine months, operating cash flow totaled $3.14 billion, and the company finished the quarter with net cash on its balance sheet.

why it matters

Refining margins are the main driver of earnings for refiners, so PBF's quarterly report gives investors a read on the wider sector. Rising RFS costs show that regulatory expenses can still weigh on profits even in a strong period.
