LISLE, Ill., Nov. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SunCoke Energy, Inc. (NYSE: SXC) today reported results for the third quarter 2020, reflecting the continued strong performance from our cokemaking business.

"In the third quarter, cokemaking operations performed well despite running at lowered rates. Our Domestic Coke fleet demonstrated excellent cost discipline and delivered strong results while following the CDC mandated guidelines and operating at sub-optimal rates." said Mike Rippey, President and Chief Executive Officer of SunCoke Energy Inc. "We continue to execute on our revised 2020 objectives, and the third quarter results have positioned us to achieve our full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance. Additionally, we extended the Haverhill II coke agreement with AK Steel for an additional two years, further illustrating our strong, long-term relationships with our customers."

Revenue in the third quarter 2020 decreased $102.1 million compared to the prior year period, reflecting  lower volumes in both our Domestic Coke and Logistics segments as well as the pass through of lower coal prices in our Domestic Coke segment.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $18.9 million as compared to the prior year period. Lower volumes were partly offset by lower operating costs in our Domestic Coke and Logistics segments.

Net income attributable to SXC increased $160.3 million from the prior year period. The prior year period included a non-cash impairment related charge at Logistics, net of taxes, of $174.8 million.

THIRD QUARTER SEGMENT RESULTS

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

Revenues decreased $91.4 million largely due to lower volumes across the fleet as well as the pass through of lower coal costs, which decreased revenues by $56.1 million and $34.4 million, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $11.1 million as operating and maintenance cost savings across the domestic coke fleet partially offset the decrease in volume discussed above.

Logistics

Logistics consists of the handling and mixing services of coal and other aggregates at our Convent Marine Terminal ("CMT"), Lake Terminal, Kanawha River Terminals ("KRT") and Dismal River Terminal ("DRT").

See definition of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation elsewhere in this release.

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $8.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively, driven by lower throughput volumes partially offset by lower operating costs. Lower demand continued to impact coal volumes in the third quarter.

Brazil Coke

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

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA were $7.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, during the third quarter 2020, which was lower than revenues and Adjusted EBITDA of $9.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively, during the third quarter 2019, driven by lower sales volumes.

Corporate and Other

Corporate and other expenses, which includes activity from our legacy coal mining business, was $8.4 million during the third quarter 2020, $1.8 million higher than $6.6 million during third quarter 2019. Corporate expenses in the current quarter included foundry related research and development costs of $0.9 million and were further impacted by period-over-period, mark-to-market adjustments in deferred compensation driven by changes in the Company's share price.

2020 Revised Outlook

Our 2020 guidance, is as follows:

  • Domestic coke production is expected to be approximately 3.75 million tons
  • Domestic coke Adjusted EBITDA/ton is expected to be between $53 to $54/ton
  • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $190 to $200 million
  • Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $80 million, which includes approximately $12 million for foundry coke
  • Free Cash Flow is estimated to be between $36 million and $56 million
  • Cash taxes are projected to be between $0 to $4 million

DEFINITIONS

  • Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted for any impairments, gain on extinguishment of debt, changes to our contingent consideration liability related to our acquisition of CMT, and/or transaction costs incurred as part of the Simplification Transaction. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income or operating income under accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP") and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures in other businesses. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure in assessing operating performance. 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. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be considered a substitute for net income 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.
  • Free Cash Flow (FCF) represents operating cash flow adjusted for capital expenditures. Management believes FCF is an important measure of liquidity. FCF is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be considered a substitute for operating cash flow or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release and related conference call contain "forward-looking statements" (as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).  Such forward-looking statements include statements that are not strictly historical facts, and include, among other things, statements regarding: our expectations of financial results, condition and outlook; anticipated effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and  responses thereto, including the pandemic's impact on general economic and market conditions, as well as on our business, our customers, our results of operations and financial condition; anticipated actions to be taken by management to sustain SunCoke during the economic uncertainty caused by the pandemic and related business actions; and anticipated actions by governments to contain the spread of COVID-19 or mitigate the severity thereof.

Forward-looking statements often may be identified by the use of such words as "believe," "expect," "plan," "project," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "may," "will," "should," or the negative of these terms, or similar expressions.  Forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and involve significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties (many of which are beyond the control of SunCoke) that could cause actual results to differ materially.  Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to domestic and international economic, political, business, operational, competitive, regulatory and/or market factors affecting SunCoke, as well as uncertainties related to: pending or future litigation, legislation or regulatory actions; liability for remedial actions or assessments under existing or future environmental regulations; gains and losses related to acquisition, disposition or impairment of assets; recapitalizations; access to, and costs of, capital; the effects of changes in accounting rules applicable to SunCoke; and changes in tax, environmental and other laws and regulations applicable to SunCoke's businesses.

Currently, such risks and uncertainties also include: SunCoke's ability to manage its business during and after the COVID-19 pandemic; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on SunCoke's results of operations, revenues, earnings and cash flows; SunCoke's ability to reduce costs and capital spending in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; SunCoke's balance sheet and liquidity throughout and following the COVID-19 pandemic; SunCoke's prospects for financial performance and achievement of strategic objectives following the COVID-19 pandemic; capital allocation strategy following the COVID-19-related outbreak; and the general impact on our industry and on the U.S. and global economy resulting from COVID-19, including actions by domestic and foreign governments and others to contain the spread, or mitigate the severity, thereof.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, but are based upon the current knowledge, beliefs and expectations of SunCoke management, and upon assumptions by SunCoke concerning future conditions, any or all of which ultimately may prove to be inaccurate. The reader should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. SunCoke does not intend, and expressly disclaims any obligation, to update or alter its forward-looking statements (or associated cautionary language), whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise after the date of this press release except as required by applicable law.

In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, SunCoke has included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission cautionary language identifying important factors (but not necessarily all the important factors) that could cause actual  results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by SunCoke. For information concerning these factors, see SunCoke's Securities and Exchange Commission filings such as its annual and quarterly reports and current reports on Form 8-K, copies of which are available free of charge on SunCoke's website at www.suncoke.com. All forward-looking statements included in this press release are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements. Unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this release also could have material adverse effects on forward- looking statements.

This liability was written to zero during the third quarter of 2019, and the related contract was terminated in 2020.
