Insights

TL;DR Director received 7.9k shares, sold 3.8k for taxes; net ownership up 0.5%; neutral-to-positive governance signal.

The filing shows a standard restricted-stock grant to Director Thomas J. Nimbley. After covering taxes via a Code F sale at $22.27, his direct stake rises to 853,437 shares, a net addition of roughly 4,000 shares (0.5% of his holding). There is no open-market purchase, but the absence of discretionary selling beyond tax needs suggests confidence and continued alignment with shareholders. The transaction is small relative to PBF’s 122 million share count and is therefore not materially price-moving, yet offers a modestly positive governance cue.
