DALLAS, Nov. 9, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("Sunoco") today announced that it has priced at 100% an upsized private offering (the "offering") of $800 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.500% senior notes due 2029 (the "notes"). Sunoco Finance Corp., a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Sunoco, will serve as co-issuer of the notes. The sale of the notes is expected to settle on November 24, 2020, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
Sunoco intends to use the net proceeds from the offering and borrowings under its revolving credit facility to fund the separately announced tender offer for any and all of its outstanding 4.875% senior notes due 2023 (the "2023 notes") and, if applicable, a partial redemption of the 2023 notes.
The offering of the notes has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, the notes may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Sunoco plans to offer and sell the notes only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.
This news release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale of, the notes or any other securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful, nor does it constitute a notice of redemption under the optional redemption provisions of the indenture governing the 2023 notes.

SOURCE Sunoco LP
DALLAS, May 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("SUN" or the "Partnership") today reported financial and operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020.
"Our employees have been working on the front lines to continue to serve our country, communities and customers," said Joe Kim, CEO of Sunoco LP. "Our best wishes go out to those affected by COVID-19 and I would like to personally thank our employees and fuel distribution partners for their dedication during this unprecedented time. We have built a resilient business model to withstand various headwinds. We started the year on solid footing and delivered strong first quarter results even with the onset of the pandemic in March. We will continue to take proactive steps to manage through the crisis and ensure a stable, long-term future for Sunoco."
Financial and Operational Highlights
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net loss was $128 million versus a net income of $109 million in the first quarter of 2019. The net loss includes approximately $227 million of non-cash inventory adjustments resulting from the decline in the price of RBOB.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the quarter totaled $209 million compared with $153 million in the first quarter of 2019. This year-over-year increase reflects higher reported fuel margins of 13.1 cents per gallon driven by a decline in the price of RBOB and the receipt of a $13 million annual make-up payment under the fuel supply agreement with 7-Eleven, Inc. Adjusted EBITDA also included an increase in non motor fuel sales gross profit related to an $18 million favorable legal settlement and an increase in other operating expense related to current expected credit losses of approximately $16 million.
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted(1), for the quarter was $159 million, compared to $99 million a year ago.
The Partnership sold 1.9 billion gallons in the first quarter, down 2% from the first quarter of 2019. On a weighted-average basis, fuel margin for all gallons sold was 13.1 cents per gallon for the first quarter compared to 9.9 cents per gallon a year ago.
Distribution and Coverage
On April 2, 2020, the Board of Directors of SUN's general partner declared a distribution for the first quarter of 2020 of $0.8255 per unit, which corresponds to $3.3020 per unit on an annualized basis. The distribution will be paid on May 19, 2020 to common unitholders of record on May 7, 2020. Current quarter cash coverage was 1.84 times and trailing twelve months coverage was 1.49 times.
Liquidity and Leverage
At March 31, 2020, SUN had borrowings of $265 million against its revolving credit facility and other long-term debt of $2.9 billion. The Partnership maintained ample liquidity of $1.2 billion at the end of the quarter under its $1.5 billion revolving credit facility that matures in July 2023 and has no debt maturities prior to 2023. SUN's leverage ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with its credit facility, was 4.39 times at the end of the first quarter.
Capital Spending
SUN's gross capital expenditures for the first quarter were $41 million, which included $36 million for growth capital and $5 million for maintenance capital.
2020 Business Outlook
The Partnership revised its 2020 capital guidance by reducing full year growth capital expenditures to approximately $75 million and maintenance capital expenditures to $30 million. SUN also began efforts in the second quarter to reduce total operating expenses(2) by $55 to $70 million over the remainder of the year. SUN lowered 2020 full year operating expense guidance to a range of $460 to $475 million. The combination of unprecedented declines in fuel demand and a volatile commodity price environment will affect the Partnership's outlook for full year 2020 fuel volumes and margins. As a result, SUN is withdrawing its previous guidance on 2020 fuel volume, margin and adjusted EBITDA.
SUN's segment results and other supplementary data are provided after the financial tables below.
(1) | Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are non-GAAP financial measures of performance that have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net income. Please refer to the discussion and tables under "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures" later in this news release for a discussion of our use of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, and a reconciliation to net income. |
(2) | Operating expenses include general and administrative, other operating and lease expenses. |
Earnings Conference Call
Sunoco LP management will hold a conference call on Tuesday, May 12, at 8:00 a.m. CT (9:00 a.m. ET) to discuss results and recent developments. To participate, dial 877-407-6184 (toll free) or 201-389-0877 approximately 10 minutes early and ask for the Sunoco LP conference call.

____________________ | |
(1) | Excludes depreciation, amortization and accretion. |
(2) | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, allocated non-cash compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations, such as gain or loss on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges. We define Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, including the accrual of interest expense related to our long-term debt which is paid on a semi-annual basis, Series A Preferred distribution, current income tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures and other non-cash adjustments. |
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because: | |
| |
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, have limitations as analytical tools, and one should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: | |
| |
Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for the unconsolidated affiliate based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliate. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliate as those excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliate. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliate; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliate. The use of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate as an analytical tool should be limited accordingly. | |
(3) | Includes other non-cash adjustments and excludes the impact of inventory adjustments consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. |
(4) | The distribution coverage ratio for a period is calculated as Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, divided by distributions expected to be paid to partners of Sunoco LP in respect of such a period. |

(2) | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, allocated non-cash compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations, such as gain or loss on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges. We define Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, including the accrual of interest expense related to our long-term debt which is paid on a semi-annual basis, Series A Preferred distribution, current income tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures and other non-cash adjustments. | |||||
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because: | ||||||
• | Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance measure under our revolving credit facility; | |||||
• | securities analysts and other interested parties use such metrics as measures of financial performance, ability to make distributions to our unitholders and debt service capabilities; | |||||
• | our management uses them for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget, and capital expenditures; and | |||||
• | Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, provides useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance, and as it provides investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating. | |||||
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, have limitations as analytical tools, and one should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: | ||||||
• | they do not reflect our total cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; | |||||
• | they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; | |||||
• | they do not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our revolving credit facility or term loan; | |||||
• | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and | |||||
• | as not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. | |||||
Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for the unconsolidated affiliate based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliate. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliate as those excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliate. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliate; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliate. The use of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate as an analytical tool should be limited accordingly. | ||||||
(3) | Includes amounts from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2018. | |||||
(4) | Includes other non-cash adjustments and excludes the impact of inventory adjustments consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. | |||||
(5) | Transaction-related income taxes primarily related to the 7-Eleven Transaction. | |||||
(6) | The distribution coverage ratio for a period is calculated as Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, divided by distributions expected to be paid to partners of Sunoco LP in respect of such a period. |

___________________________ | |
(1) | Excludes depreciation, amortization and accretion. |
(2) | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, allocated non-cash compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations, such as gain or loss on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges. We define Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, including the accrual of interest expense related to our long-term debt which is paid on a semi-annual basis, Series A Preferred distribution, current income tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures and other non-cash adjustments. |
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because: | |
• | Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance measure under our revolving credit facility; |
• | securities analysts and other interested parties use such metrics as measures of financial performance, ability to make distributions to our unitholders and debt service capabilities; |
• | our management uses them for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget, and capital expenditures; and |
• | Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, provides useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance, and as it provides investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating. |
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, have limitations as analytical tools, and one should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: | |
• | they do not reflect our total cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
• | they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; |
• | they do not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our revolving credit facility or term loan; |
• | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and |
• | as not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. |
Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for the unconsolidated affiliate based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliate. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliate as those excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliate. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliate; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliate. The use of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliate as an analytical tool should be limited accordingly. | |
(3) | Includes other non-cash adjustments and excludes the impact of inventory adjustments consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. |
(4) | Includes amounts from discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018. |
(5) | The distribution coverage ratio for a period is calculated as Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, divided by distributions expected to be paid to partners of Sunoco LP in respect of such a period. |

SOURCE Sunoco LP
DALLAS, Aug. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("SUN" or the "Partnership") today reported financial and operating results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019.
Net income for the quarter was $55 million versus net income of $68 million in the second quarter of 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $152 million compared with $140 million in the second quarter of 2018. Results were supported by an increase in the Partnership's fuel volumes and lower operating expenses.
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted(1), was $101 million, compared to $106 million a year ago. This year-over-year decrease reflects higher Adjusted EBITDA offset by higher interest expense and maintenance capital expenditures.
Net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, included a one-time expense of approximately $8 million related to a reserve for an open contractual dispute.
Recent Accomplishments and Other Developments
Distribution
On July 25, 2019, the Board of Directors of SUN's general partner declared a distribution for the second quarter of 2019 of $0.8255 per unit, which corresponds to $3.3020 per unit on an annualized basis. The distribution will be paid on August 14, 2019 to common unitholders of record on August 6, 2019.
Liquidity
At June 30, SUN had borrowings of $117 million against its revolving line of credit and other long-term debt of $2.9 billion. In the second quarter of 2019, SUN did not issue any common units through its at-the-market equity program.
Capital Spending
SUN's gross capital expenditures for the second quarter were $31 million, which included $25 million for growth capital and $6 million for maintenance capital.
Excluding acquisitions, SUN expects to spend at least $100 million on growth capital, including approximately $5 million of growth capital toward the pipeline joint venture with Energy Transfer, and approximately $40 million on maintenance capital for the full year 2019.
SUN's segment results and other supplementary data are provided after the financial tables below.

(2) | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, allocated non-cash compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations, such as gain or loss on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges. We define Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, including the accrual of interest expense related to our long-term debt which is paid on a semi-annual basis, Series A Preferred distribution, current income tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures and other non-cash adjustments. | ||||||||
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because: | |||||||||
• | Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance measure under our revolving credit facility; | ||||||||
• | securities analysts and other interested parties use such metrics as measures of financial performance, ability to make distributions to our unitholders and debt service capabilities; | ||||||||
• | our management uses them for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget, and capital expenditures; and | ||||||||
• | Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, provides useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance, and as it provides investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating. | ||||||||
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, have limitations as analytical tools, and one should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: | |||||||||
• | they do not reflect our total cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; | ||||||||
• | they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; | ||||||||
• | they do not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our revolving credit facility or term loan; | ||||||||
• | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and | ||||||||
• | as not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. | ||||||||
(3) | Includes other non-cash adjustments and excludes the impact of inventory adjustments consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. | ||||||||
(4) | Includes amounts from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018. | ||||||||
(5) | The distribution coverage ratio for a period is calculated as Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, divided by distributions expected to be paid to partners of Sunoco LP in respect of such a period. |

DALLAS, May 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("SUN" or the "Partnership") today reported financial and operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019.
Net income was $109 million versus net loss of $315 million in the first quarter of 2018. Results include a non-cash $47 million write-down on assets held for sale offset by $93 million of non-cash inventory adjustments.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $153 million compared with $109 million in the first quarter of 2018. Results were supported by an increase in the Partnership's fuel volumes and lower operating expenses.
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted(1), was $99 million, compared to $85 million a year ago. This year-over-year increase reflects higher Adjusted EBITDA partially offset by higher cash interest expense and current income tax expense.
Recent Accomplishments and Other Developments
Distribution
On April 25, 2019, the Board of Directors of SUN's general partner declared a distribution for the first quarter of 2019 of $0.8255 per unit, which corresponds to $3.3020 per unit on an annualized basis. The distribution will be paid on May 15, 2019 to common unitholders of record on May 7, 2019.
Liquidity
At March 31, SUN had borrowings of $150 million against its revolving line of credit and other long-term debt of $2.9 billion. In the first quarter of 2019, SUN did not issue any common units through its at-the-market equity program.
Capital Spending
SUN's gross capital expenditures for the first quarter were $26 million, which included $22 million for growth capital and $4 million for maintenance capital.
Excluding acquisitions and expected capital commitment to the pipeline joint venture with Energy Transfer, SUN expects to spend approximately $90 million on growth capital and approximately $45 million on maintenance capital for the full year 2019.
SUN's segment results and other supplementary data are provided after the financial tables below.
(1) | Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are non-GAAP financial measures of performance that have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net income. Please refer to the discussion and tables under "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures" later in this news release for a discussion of our use of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, and a reconciliation to net income. |

(2) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, allocated non-cash compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations, such as gain or loss on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges. We define Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, including the accrual of interest expense related to our long-term debt which is paid on a semi-annual basis, Series A Preferred distribution, current income tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures and other non-cash adjustments. | |||||
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because: | |||||
• | Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance measure under our revolving credit facility; | ||||
• | securities analysts and other interested parties use such metrics as measures of financial performance, ability to make distributions to our unitholders and debt service capabilities; | ||||
• | our management uses them for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget, and capital expenditures; and | ||||
• | Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, provides useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance, and as it provides investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating. | ||||
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, have limitations as analytical tools, and one should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: | |||||
• | they do not reflect our total cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; | ||||
• | they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; | ||||
• | they do not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our revolving credit facility or term loan; | ||||
• | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and | ||||
• | as not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. | ||||
(3) | Includes amounts from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018. | ||||
(4) | Includes other non-cash adjustments and excludes the impact of inventory adjustments consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. | ||||
(5) | Transaction-related income taxes primarily related to the 7-Eleven Transaction. | ||||
(6) | The distribution coverage ratio for a period is calculated as Distributable Cash Flow attributable to partners, as adjusted, divided by distributions expected to be paid to partners of Sunoco LP in respect of such a period. |

DALLAS, Feb. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("SUN" or the "Partnership") today reported financial and operating results for the three- and twelve-month period ended December 31, 2018.
For the three months ended December 31, 2018, net loss was $72 million versus net income of $232 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. The net loss includes approximately $135 million of non-cash inventory adjustments.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the three months ended December 31, 2018 totaled $180 million compared with $158 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. Results were supported by an increase in the Partnership's fuel volumes and strong wholesale fuel margins.
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted(1), for the quarter was $114 million, compared to $106 million a year ago. This year-over-year increase reflects higher Adjusted EBITDA and lower cash interest expense offset by higher current tax expense and maintenance capital expenditures.
Recent Accomplishments and Other Developments
Distribution
On January 25, 2019, the Board of Directors of SUN's general partner declared a distribution for the fourth quarter of 2018 of $0.8255 per unit, which corresponds to $3.3020 per unit on an annualized basis. The distribution was paid on February 14, 2019 to common unitholders of record on February 6, 2019.
Liquidity
At December 31, SUN had borrowings of $700 million against its revolving line of credit and other long-term debt of $2.3 billion. In the fourth quarter of 2018, SUN did not issue any common units through its at-the-market equity program.
Capital Spending
SUN's gross capital expenditures for the fourth quarter were $41 million, which included $26 million for growth capital and $15 million for maintenance capital.
Gross capital expenditures for the full year 2018 were $103 million, which included $72 million for growth capital and $31 million for maintenance capital.
Excluding acquisitions, SUN expects to spend approximately $90 million on growth capital and approximately $45 million on maintenance capital for the full year 2019.
SUN's segment results and other supplementary data are provided after the financial tables below.
(1) | Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are non-GAAP financial measures of performance that have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net income. Please refer to the discussion and tables under "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures" later in this news release for a discussion of our use of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, and a reconciliation to net income. |

Sunoco LP management will hold a conference call on Thursday, February 21, at 9:30 a.m. CT (10:30 a.m. ET) to discuss fourth quarter results and recent developments.

Key Operating Metrics
The following information is intended to provide investors with a reasonable basis for assessing our historical operations but should not serve as the only criteria for predicting our future performance.
Our financial statements reflect two reportable segments, fuel distribution & marketing and all other. After the Retail Divestment and the conversion of 207 retail sites to commission agent sites, the Partnership has renamed the former Wholesale segment to Fuel Distribution and Marketing and the former Retail segment is renamed to All Other.
Key operating metrics set forth below are presented for the years and three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and have been derived from our historical consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying footnotes to the following four key operating metrics tables can be found immediately preceding our capital spending discussion.

_______________________________ |
(1) Excludes depreciation, amortization and accretion. |
(2) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, allocated non-cash compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives and inventory adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations, such as gain or loss on disposal of assets and non-cash impairment charges. We define Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, as Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, including the accrual of interest expense related to our long-term debt which is paid on a semi-annual basis, Series A Preferred distribution, current income tax expense, maintenance capital expenditures and other non-cash adjustments. |
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because: |
• Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance measure under our revolving credit facility; |
• securities analysts and other interested parties use such metrics as measures of financial performance, ability to make distributions to our unitholders and debt service capabilities; |
• our management uses them for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget, and capital expenditures; and |
• Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, provides useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance, and as it provides investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating. |
Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, have limitations as analytical tools, and one should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: |
• they do not reflect our total cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
• they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; |
• they do not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our revolving credit facility or term loan; |
• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and |
• as not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. |
(3) Includes amounts from discontinued operations. |
(4) Includes other non-cash adjustments and excludes the impact of inventory adjustments consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. |
(5) Transaction-related income taxes primarily related to the 7-Eleven Transaction. |

DALLAS, Nov. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("SUN" or the "Partnership") today announced financial and operating results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2018.
Revenue totaled $4.8 billion, an increase of 55 percent, compared to $3.1 billion in the third quarter of 2017. The increase was the result of the average selling price of fuel being higher than last year and the benefit of the fuel distribution contract with 7-Eleven, Inc.
Total gross profit increased to $333 million, compared to $316 million in the third quarter of 2017, as a result of higher motor fuel gross profits and a one-time cash benefit of approximately $25 million related to a settlement with a fuel supplier.
Income from continuing operations was $114 million versus $121 million in the third quarter of 2017.
Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, was $2 million versus income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, of $17 million in the third quarter of 2017.
Net income was $112 million, or $1.12 per diluted unit, versus $138 million, or $1.08 per diluted unit, in the third quarter of 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter totaled $208 million compared with $199 million in the third quarter of 2017. Adjusted EBITDA included $2 million of transaction-related expenses and the one-time cash benefit of approximately $25 million.
Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, was $149 million, compared to $132 million a year ago. This year-over-year increase reflects higher Adjusted EBITDA and lower cash interest expense offset by a higher current tax expense.
Total gallons sold were 2.0 billion, flat from a year ago. On a weighted-average basis, fuel margin for all gallons sold was 12.7 cents per gallon, or 11.4 cents per gallon excluding the one-time cash benefit of approximately $25 million this quarter.
SUN's segment results and other supplementary data are provided after the financial tables below.
Distribution
On October 26, 2018, the Board of Directors of SUN's general partner declared a distribution for the third quarter of 2018 of $0.8255 per unit, which corresponds to $3.3020 per unit on an annualized basis. The distribution will be paid on November 14, 2018 to common unitholders of record on November 6, 2018.
SUN's distribution coverage ratio for the third quarter was 1.73 times. The distribution coverage ratio on a trailing 12-month basis was 1.24 times.
Excluding the one-time cash benefit of approximately $25 million this quarter, SUN's distribution coverage ratio for the third quarter was 1.44 times.
Liquidity
At September 30, SUN had borrowings of $493 million against its revolving line of credit and other long-term debt of $2.3 billion. In the third quarter of 2018, SUN did not issue any common units through its at-the-market equity program. The leverage ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with SUN's credit facility, was 4.27 times at the end of the third quarter (2).
(1) | Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, are non-GAAP financial measures of performance that have limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net income. Please refer to the discussion and tables under "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures" later in this news release for a discussion of our use of Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow, as adjusted, and a reconciliation to net income. |
(2) | Excluding the one-time cash benefit of approximately $25 million this quarter, SUN's leverage ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with SUN's credit facility, was 4.44 times at the end of the third quarter. |
Earnings Conference Call

Key Operating Metrics
The following information is intended to provide investors with a reasonable basis for assessing our historical operations but should not serve as the only criteria for predicting our future performance.
Our financial statements reflect two reportable segments, fuel distribution & marketing and all other. After the Retail Divestment and the conversion of 207 retail sites to commission agent sites, the Partnership has renamed the former Wholesale segment to Fuel Distribution and Marketing and the former Retail segment is renamed to All Other.
Key operating metrics set forth below are presented as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 and have been derived from our historical consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying footnotes to the following two key operating metrics tables can be found immediately preceding our capital spending discussion.
