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.

高盛集团分析师Neil Mehta维持$PBF Energy (PBF.US)$持有评级，并将目标价从50美元下调至39美元。
根据TipRanks数据显示，该分析师近一年总胜率为63.2%，总平均回报率为11.1%。
此外，综合报道，$PBF Energy (PBF.US)$近期主要分析师观点如下：
PBF Energy的评级下调归因于其存在大量炼油裂缝和西海岸市场。但是，人们承认，由于资产负债表的改善，PBF在周期性低迷时期比历史上更具弹性。在所谓的 “槽状环境” 中，大型炼油商是首选。
PBF Energy的股票已经进行了调整，尽管之前的运营问题可能已得到解决，资产负债表仍然强劲，但该公司被视为成本较高的炼油商。这种观点表明，与同行相比，PBF的利润率、收益和自由现金流可能会遇到更大的压力，从而导致估值和资本回报潜力被认为不太有利。
