LISLE, Ill., July 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- 

  • Net loss attributable to SXC was $24.2 million, or $0.38 per share, in the current period compared to a loss of $4.6 million, or $0.07 per share, in the prior year period
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $47.5 million, up $1.0 million versus the prior year period
  • Purchased approximately 1.5 million SXCP units in the quarter; 1.6 million total units through July 26, 2017
  • Reaffirm full-year 2017 Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $220 million to $235 million

SunCoke Energy, Inc.

SunCoke Energy, Inc. (NYSE: SXC) today reported results for the second quarter 2017, which reflect comparable consolidated operating results and current period charges related to the debt refinancing completed in the quarter.

"Our second quarter operating performance finished in line with our expectations and positions us to achieve our full-year financial guidance targets in 2017," said Fritz Henderson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of SunCoke Energy, Inc. "In the quarter, work commenced on our 2017 Indiana Harbor oven rebuild campaign and we successfully completed our scheduled outage at Granite City."

Additionally, the company began executing against its capital allocation strategy to purchase SXCP units in the open market. Through July 26, 2017, the company had spent approximately $27 million to acquire 1.6 million SXCP units. The company also completed its debt refinancing at both SXC and SXCP.

Henderson continued, "We remained focused on allocating capital in the most efficient manner for SXC shareholders and are pleased with the execution of our SXCP unit purchases to-date. Additionally, we successfully completed our debt refinancing which extends our revolver and SXCP note maturities and provides the flexibility to execute our growth and capital allocation strategies going forward."

Revenues during the second quarter 2017 increased $30.5 million compared to 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 during the second quarter 2017 increased $1.0 million to $47.5 million, primarily due to higher sales volumes in our Coal Logistics segment and higher technology and licensing fees earned in our Brazil Coke segment. These improvements were partially offset by lower Adjusted EBITDA in our Domestic Coke segment, driven primarily by the impact of oven rebuilds at our Indiana Harbor facility as well as the planned outage at our Granite City facility in the current year period.

Net loss attributable to SXC was $24.2 million, or $0.38 per share, for the second quarter 2017 which is $19.6 million unfavorable to second quarter 2016 loss of $4.6 million, or $0.07 per share. This change is driven primarily by $20.2 million of debt extinguishment costs related to our refinancing activities in the current year period.

Reflects Domestic Coke Adjusted EBITDA divided by Domestic Coke sales volumes.

 

  • Revenues increased $22.5 million, reflecting the pass-through of higher coal prices in our Domestic Coke segment, partially offset by a decrease in sales volume of 39 thousand tons, primarily due to lower production at Indiana Harbor associated with oven rebuilds in the current year period. Revenue was also impacted by lower energy sales due to the planned outage at our Granite City facility in the current year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA decreased $7.0 million, reflecting lower volumes as discussed above, $3.5 million in higher operating and maintenance spending at Indiana Harbor due primarily to the oven rebuilds, as well as lower energy sales and higher operating and maintenance spend for the planned outage at Granite City. Adjusted EBITDA was also impacted by $1.0 million of favorable contracted coal prices at our Jewell facility in the current year period.

Coal Logistics
Coal Logistics consists of the coal handling and mixing services operated by SXCP at Convent Marine Terminal ("CMT") located on the Mississippi river in Louisiana, Lake Terminal in East Chicago, Indiana and Kanawha River Terminals, LLC ("KRT"), which has terminals along the Ohio and Kanawha rivers in West Virginia.  Additionally, Dismal River Terminal ("DRT"), located in Virginia adjacent to our Jewell Cokemaking facility, is operated by SXC.  DRT was formed to accommodate Jewell in its direct procurement of third-party coal, beginning in 2016.

  • Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA were up $4.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively, driven by higher sales volumes at our CMT and KRT terminals in the current year period.

Brazil Coke

Brazil Coke consists of a cokemaking facility in Vitória, Brazil, which we operate for an affiliate of ArcelorMittal.

  • Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.1 million to $4.5 million, driven primarily by incremental technology and licensing fees related to the addition of certain patents to our existing intellectual property licensing agreement in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Corporate and Other
Corporate and other expenses, which include costs related to our legacy coal mining business, were $11.0 million in second quarter 2017, an improvement of $1.3 million versus second quarter 2016. The improvement was driven partly by lower legal costs.

2017 OUTLOOK

Our 2017 guidance is as follows:

  • Domestic coke production is expected to be approximately 3.9 million tons
  • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $220 million and $235 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXC is expected to be between $130 million and $141 million, reflecting the impact of public ownership in SXCP
  • Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $80 million
  • Cash flow from operations is estimated to be between $128 million and $143 million (updated post-refinancing)
  • Cash taxes are projected to be between $6 million and $10 million (updated post-refinancing)

DEFINITIONS

  • Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted for impairments, coal rationalization costs, changes to our contingent consideration liability related to our acquisition of CMT and the expiration of certain acquired contractual obligations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives 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 Company'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 a substitute for net income, operating cash flow or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
  • Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXC represents Adjusted EBITDA less Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests.

(1)

The Partnership recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt as a result of its debt refinancing activities during the second quarter of 2017. The Partnership recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt as a result of senior note repurchases through the first half of 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 set up 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.  As the Company consolidates the Partnership, the entire deferred income tax expense was recognized during the first quarter of 2017. However, the Company had already recorded $84.4 million of the deferred income tax liability in its financial statements related to the Company's share of the deferred tax liability for the book and tax differences in its investment in the Partnership. Therefore, the net impact to the Company's deferred tax expense was $64.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017. This incremental tax impact is solely attributable to the Partnership's public unitholders. As such, an equal reduction to noncontrolling interest was recorded. As a result, the Final Regulations have no impact to net income attributable to the Company.

(1)

Prior to the divestiture of our coal mining business, the Company incurred coal rationalization costs including employee severance, contract termination costs and other costs to idle mines incurred during the execution of our coal rationalization plan.

(2)

As a result of the increase in fair value of the contingent consideration liability during the second quarter of 2017, the Partnership recognized expense of $0.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The Partnership amended its contingent consideration terms with The Cline Group during the first quarter of 2016.  This amendment resulted in a gain of $3.7 million recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

(3)

In 2014, we finalized the required permitting and engineering plan for a potential new cokemaking facility to be constructed in Kentucky.  However, in June 2017, due to our focus on renewing our existing customer contracts and the lack of any long-term customer commitment for a majority of the facility's capacity, we decided to terminate the project. As a result, during the second quarter of 2017, the Company wrote-off previously capitalized engineering and land deposit costs of $5.3 million. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company wrote-off expiring land deposits related to the project of $1.9 million.

(4)

In accordance with the SEC's May 2016 update of its guidance on the appropriate use of non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA does not include Coal Logistics deferred revenue until it is recognized as GAAP revenue.

Reflects noncontrolling interest in Indiana Harbor and the portion of the Partnership owned by public unitholders.
