“Kevin’s financial experience in the energy markets and with MLPs (master limited partnerships) will benefit our organization as we continue to grow through completion of the acquisition of Alon USA and the integration of the companies,” said Uzi Yemin, chairman, president and CEO of Delek U.S. Holdings Inc. and chairman and CEO of the general partner of Delek Logistics Partners LP.
Current EVP and CFO Assi Ginzburg is resigning, effective June 1. Ginzburg will continue to work as vice president, overseeing the business development and strategic planning of Delek. He also will remain a member of the board of directors of Delek Logistics GP LLC, the general partner of Delek Logistics Partners LP.
