Carso De-C Inmobiliaria, listed among the additional reporting persons in Exhibit 99-1, has divested a substantial position in PBF Energy, selling 650,000 shares of the company’s stock. The transaction, valued at $34,228,800, marks a significant move in the firm’s holdings and highlights a notable shift in its exposure to PBF Energy.

**Recent Updates on PBF stock**

PBF Energy shares have nearly doubled over the past year, helped by the restart of the Martinez refinery and stronger refining margins following disruptions near the Strait of Hormuz. One new coverage report argues the current share price already reflects these benefits, tempering further upside expectations despite the strong run.

Another firm raised its expectations as PBF exits a difficult operational period into a backdrop of robust margins, highlighting its high earnings leverage to refining spreads versus peers. This analyst also points to the potential for substantial free cash flow generation over the remainder of the year as a key driver behind the revised outlook.

**Spark’s Take on PBF Stock**

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, PBF is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak cash flow (deeply negative free cash flow and working-capital pressure) despite improving profitability and a manageable balance sheet. Technicals are a key positive with a strong uptrend, but stretched momentum indicators raise pullback risk. Valuation is reasonable (mid-teens P/E) with a modest dividend, while the earnings call was neutral overall: clear operational progress and cost actions were offset by near-term losses and cash burn.
