Par Pacific Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: PARR) (“Par Pacific”) today announced a leadership transition effective as of the Company’s May 2024 shareholders’ meeting. William Pate will retire as Chief Executive Officer at the upcoming annual shareholders’ meeting after eight years as leader of the rapidly growing energy company. The company’s Board of Directors unanimously appointed Will Monteleone to become the company’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

Pate and Monteleone will each continue to serve as members of the company’s Board of Directors.

Robert Silberman, Chairman of Par Pacific’s Board of Directors, said “Bill Pate has been the instrumental force behind Par Pacific’s success since its inception over 10 years ago. He has served as the company’s founding lead investor, a board member, and its Chief Executive Officer. Under Bill’s stewardship our enterprise has grown from nothing to over $8.2 billion in revenue, $680 million in operating income, and over $8.00 in adjusted per share earnings. We are very grateful to Bill for his outstanding leadership and look forward to his continued contribution as a board member. Will Monteleone has been Bill’s strong right hand for over a decade, and the board has every confidence the company will continue to thrive with Will at the helm.”

“There is no better way to leave Par Pacific than in the very capable hands of Will Monteleone with whom I worked closely in the development of our business and strategy,” commented Pate. “We are fortunate to have a deep bench of talented executives with a bright future ahead of us. I look forward to maintaining a role with the company as a board member and shareholder.”

“Bill’s exceptional leadership in the face of both challenges and success have set the standard,” said Monteleone. “His wisdom, integrity, humility, and creativity are foundational elements of our Company culture that we will carry forward. The Company’s strong business outlook and balance sheet paired with our talented management team gives me great confidence for our future. I am very excited to continue working closely with the entire Par Pacific team to drive shareholder value over the next chapter of our growth.”
