SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. Announces Strongest Ever Quarterly Operating Performance With Third Quarter 2017 Results
LISLE, Ill., Oct. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (NYSE: SXCP) today reported results for the third quarter 2017, which reflect strong operating results across SXCP's coke and logistics businesses. The third quarter also benefited from the timing of scheduled outages at our cokemaking facilities.
"Our third quarter operating performance was the best in SXCP's history after adjusting for the timing impact related to Convent's deferred revenue in the fourth quarter of each year," said Fritz Henderson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of SunCoke Energy, Inc. "This record-setting quarter, coupled with our performance in the first half of the year, position us to achieve the top end our full-year 2017 Adjusted EBITDA guidance."
During the quarter, SunCoke's Convent Marine Terminal received its first shipment of crushed stone (aggregates) under a multi-year contract with firm use commitments. In addition, the terminal also successfully handled its first trial shipments of rail-borne petcoke for two refinery customers in early-October.
Henderson continued, "Our team has aggressively pursued new opportunities for diversifying our product and customer mix since acquiring Convent in mid-2015, and we are pleased with the progress we have made over the last few quarters. Going forward, we believe that we can leverage the terminal's capabilities to enter new vertical markets, expand existing products and grow Adjusted EBITDA by $5 million to $10 million over the next two years."

Revenues in third quarter 2017 increased $28.5 million from the same prior year period, reflecting the pass-through of higher coal prices in our Domestic Coke segment as well as higher sales volumes in our Coal Logistics segment.
Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter increased $12.7 million primarily due to improved performance at our Domestic Coke segment as well as higher sales volumes in our Coal Logistics segment compared to the same prior year period.
Net income attributable to SXCP in the third quarter 2017 was $22.6 million, up slightly from the same prior year period. The improved operating results discussed above were partially offset by a $4.7 million unfavorable impact of higher interest expense and the absence of extinguishment gains in the current year period associated with our debt activities in both years. Further offsetting our favorable operating performance was slightly higher depreciation expense in the current year, partially related to the installation of our the new shiploader at CMT, and higher taxes associated with the increase in Illinois state tax rates during the third quarter of 2017.
THIRD QUARTER SEGMENT INFORMATION

DEFINITIONS
- Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for changes to our contingent consideration liability related to our acquisition of CMT and the expiration of certain acquired contractual obligations. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net income or operating income under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures in other businesses. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of the operating performance and liquidity of the Partnership's net assets and its ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and make distributions. Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because it highlights trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures and because it eliminates items that have less bearing on our operating performance and liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating cash flow or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
- Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXCP equals Adjusted EBITDA less Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests.
- Distributable Cash Flow equals Adjusted EBITDA plus sponsor support and Coal Logistics deferred revenue; less net cash paid for interest expense, ongoing capital expenditures, accruals for replacement capital expenditures and cash distributions to noncontrolling interests; plus amounts received under the Omnibus Agreement and acquisition expenses deemed to be Expansion Capital under our Partnership Agreement. Distributable Cash Flow is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that management and external users of SXCP's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies use to assess:
- SXCP's operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships, without regard to historical cost basis;
- the ability of SXCP's assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to SXCP's unitholders;
- SXCP's ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
- the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities
We believe that Distributable Cash Flow provides useful information to investors in assessing SXCP's financial condition and results of operations. Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Distributable Cash Flow has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities and used in investing activities. Additionally, because Distributable Cash Flow may be defined differently by other companies in the industry, our definition of Distributable Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility.
- Ongoing capital expenditures ("capex") are capital expenditures made to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and/or to extend their useful lives. Ongoing capex also includes new equipment that improves the efficiency, reliability or effectiveness of existing assets. Ongoing capex does not include normal repairs and maintenance, which are expensed as incurred, or significant capital expenditures. For purposes of calculating distributable cash flow, the portion of ongoing capex attributable to SXCP is used and includes capital expenditures included in working capital at the end of the period.
- Replacement capital expenditures ("capex") represents an annual accrual necessary to fund SXCP's share of the estimated costs to replace or rebuild our facilities at the end of their working lives. This accrual is estimated based on the average quarterly anticipated replacement capital that we expect to incur over the long term to replace our major capital assets at the end of their working lives. The replacement capex accrual estimate will be subject to review and prospective change by SXCP's general partner at least annually and whenever an event occurs that causes a material adjustment of replacement capex, provided such change is approved by our conflicts committee.

(1) | The Partnership recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt as a result of its debt refinancing activities during the second and third quarters of 2017. The Partnership recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt as a result of senior note repurchases in 2016. |
(2) | In January 2017, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") announced its decision to exclude cokemaking as a qualifying income generating activity in its final regulations (the "Final Regulations") issued under section 7704(d)(1)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the qualifying income exception for publicly traded partnerships. However, the Final Regulations include a transition period for activities that were reasonably interpreted to be qualifying income and carried on by publicly traded partnerships prior to the Final Regulations. The Partnership previously received a will-level opinion from its counsel, Vinson & Elkins LLP, that the Partnership's cokemaking operations generated qualifying income prior to the Final Regulations. Therefore, the Partnership believes it had a reasonable basis to conclude its cokemaking operations were considered qualifying income before the issuance of the new regulations and as such expects to maintain its treatment as a partnership through the transition period. Cokemaking entities in the Partnership will become taxable as corporations on January 1, 2028, after the transition period ends. |
As a result of the Final Regulations, the Partnership recorded deferred income tax expense of $148.6 million to setup its initial deferred income tax liability during the first quarter of 2017, primarily related to differences in the book and tax basis of fixed assets, which are expected to exist at the end of the 10-year transition period when the cokemaking operations become taxable. |

(1) | As a result of changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability, the Partnership recognized gains of $2.0 million and $1.7 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The Partnership amended its contingent consideration terms with The Cline Group during the first quarter of 2016. This amendment and subsequent fair value adjustments resulted in a gain of $4.6 million and $8.3 million recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. |
(2) | In association with the acquisition of CMT, we assumed certain performance obligations under existing contracts and recorded liabilities related to such obligations. In the third quarter of 2016, the final acquired contractual performance obligation expired without the customer requiring performance. Therefore, the Partnership reversed the liability as we no longer have any obligations under the contract. |

(1) | As a result of changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability, the Partnership recognized gains of $2.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017. The Partnership amended its contingent consideration terms with The Cline Group during the first quarter of 2016. This amendment and subsequent fair value adjustments resulted in a gain of $4.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. |
(2) | In association with the acquisition of CMT, we assumed certain performance obligations under existing contracts and recorded liabilities related to such obligations. In the third quarter of 2016, the final acquired contractual performance obligation expired without the customer requiring performance. Therefore, the Partnership reversed the liability as we no longer have any obligations under the contract. |
(3) | Coal Logistics deferred revenue adjusts for coal and liquid tons the Partnership did not handle, but are included in Distributable Cash Flow as the associated take-or-pay fees are billed to the customer. Deferred revenue on take-or-pay contracts is recognized into GAAP income annually based on the terms of the contract, at which time it will be excluded from Distributable Cash Flow. |
(4) | Cash tax impact from the operations of Gateway Cogeneration Company LLC, which is an entity subject to income taxes for federal and state purposes at the corporate level. |
(5) | Distribution cash coverage ratio is distributable cash flow divided by total estimated distributions to the limited and general partners. |
