SUNCOKE ENERGY, INC. ANNOUNCES FULL-YEAR 2019 RESULTS AND PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR 2020

 

   

Net loss attributable to SXC was $152.3 million, or $1.98 per share, for the full-year 2019, which included previously announced non-cash impairment related charges at Logistics, net of taxes, of $174.4 million. Excluding these non-cash charges, Adjusted Net Income Attributable to SXC was $22.1 million, or $0.29 per share; Net loss attributable to SXC was $1.4 million, or $0.02 per share in the fourth quarter 2019

 

   

Full-year 2019 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $247.9 million which was within our revised guidance range of $240 million to $250 million; fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $50.8 million

 

   

Operating cash flow was $181.9 million for the full-year 2019, above our revised guidance of $150 million to $160 million

 

   

Full-year 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be $235 million to $245 million

LISLE, Ill. (January 29, 2020) - SunCoke Energy, Inc. (NYSE: SXC) (the “Company”) today reported fourth quarter and full-year 2019 results, reflecting continued strong operating performance from our Domestic Coke business.

“In 2019, we simplified our corporate structure to build financial flexibility and made major strides in enhancing performance and efficiency within our core domestic cokemaking operations, leading to strong results for the year and a solid foundation from which to drive momentum into 2020,” said Mike Rippey, President and Chief Executive Officer of SunCoke Energy, Inc. “Despite the customer challenges within our Logistics segment, we delivered robust cash flows and aggressively pursued a balanced yet opportunistic approach to capital allocation in 2019 and set the stage for continued progress on our capital allocation priorities in 2020.”

Looking forward, the Company expects 2020 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to be between $235 million and $245 million, driven by continued improvement in our cokemaking business, partially offset by the challenges faced by our coal export customers in our logistics business.

Rippey continued, “As we move forward in 2020, we will remain focused on executing against our objectives of improved safety performance and operational excellence. Additionally, we will work towards development of new business opportunities for our Logistics segment and navigating through the upcoming coke contract renewal negotiations. We are committed to positioning the Company for sustained success and delivering significant value to SunCoke stakeholders.”

Revenues increased $28.3 million and $149.4 million for the fourth quarter and full-year 2019, respectively, primarily reflecting the pass-through of higher coal prices and higher sales volumes in our Domestic Coke segment, partially offset by lower transloading volumes in our Logistics segment.

Fourth quarter and full year 2019 Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $15.1 million and $15.3 million, respectively. The decrease reflects the impact of the previously announced bankruptcy of one of our coal export customers, which was partially offset by the improved performance in our Domestic Coke segment.

Net (loss) income attributable to SXC decreased $3.2 million for the fourth quarter 2019 reflecting lower operating results discussed above, partially offset by lower depreciation expense and lower income attributable to noncontrolling interest.

Net loss attributable to SXC was $152.3 million for the full-year 2019 and included non-cash impairment related charges at Logistics, net of taxes, of $174.8 million recorded in the third quarter. Excluding these impairment related charges, Adjusted net income attributable to SXC decreased $3.7 million for the full-year mainly due to lower operating results discussed above.

Reflects inbound tons handled during the period.

 

   

Revenues decreased $9.0 million for the fourth quarter 2019 and $29.4 million for the full-year 2019. Lower demand and depressed export pricing drove lower throughput volumes in the fourth quarter and full-year 2019.

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $9.8 million for the fourth quarter 2019 and $30.0 million for the full-year 2019 mainly due to lower throughput volumes as described above. Results in 2019 reflect the impact of bankruptcy of Murray Energy - one of our coal export customers. We do not expect any throughput volumes from Murray Energy in 2020.

Brazil Coke

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

 

   

Revenues were $9.1 million and $38.4 million for the fourth quarter and full-year 2019, respectively, a decrease of $1.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods. These decreases were the result of lower volumes and unfavorable foreign currency adjustments.

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA was $3.3 million and $16.0 million for the fourth quarter and full-year 2019, respectively, a decrease of $1.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively, as compared with the same prior year periods, mainly due to lower volumes.

Corporate and Other

Corporate and other expenses, which includes activity from our legacy coal mining business, increased $4.7 million and $1.7 million, for the fourth quarter and full-year 2019, respectively, compared to the same prior year periods. The fourth quarter increase was primarily due to the timing of employee related expenses as well as higher legacy costs. The impact of higher legacy costs on the full year period was mostly offset by lower legal costs.

2020 OUTLOOK

Our 2020 guidance assumes Indiana Harbor achieving full production of 1.2 million tons and run-rate EBITDA of approximately $50 million. It also assumes continued Logistics customer disruption, including an anticipated renegotiated contract with our CMT customer, Foresight Energy.

Our 2020 guidance is as follows:

 

   

Domestic coke production is expected to be approximately 4.3 million tons

 

   

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $235 million to $245 million

 

   

Capital expenditures are projected to be between $70 million to $80 million

 

   

Cash generated by operations is estimated to be between $170 million and $185 million

 

   

Cash taxes are projected to be between $4 million to $8 million

DEFINITIONS

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted for any impairments, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, changes to our contingent consideration liability related to our acquisition of CMT, loss on the disposal of our interest in VISA SunCoke Limited, 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.

 

   

Adjusted net income attributable to SXC represents net income (loss) attributable to SXC adjusted for impairments, changes to our contingent consideration liability as a result of impairments and related tax impacts. Adjusted earnings per share is Adjusted net income attributable to SXC divided by the weighted average number of diluted common shares outstanding. Management believes Adjusted net income attributable to SXC and Adjusted earnings per share provide useful information to investors because it eliminates non-cash impairment related charges that are not representative of our ongoing business. These measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for net income or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
