Sunoco LP Announces Second Quarter Financial and Operating Results


DALLAS, Aug. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("SUN" or the "beplay88网棋牌 ship") 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 beplay88网棋牌 ship'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

  • Sold a record high 2.05 billion gallons in the second quarter, up 4% from the second quarter of 2018. On a weighted-average basis, fuel margin for all gallons sold was 9.1 cents per gallon, or 9.4 cents per gallon excluding the one-time expense of approximately $8 million this quarter.
  • Reported current quarter cash coverage of 1.17 times and trailing twelve months coverage of 1.35 times. Excluding the one-time expense of approximately $8 million this quarter, SUN's distribution coverage ratio for the second quarter was 1.26 times and trailing twelve months coverage was 1.37 times. SUN's leverage ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with its credit facility, was 4.20 times at the end of the second quarter(2).
  • Closed on the joint venture with Energy Transfer LP (NYSE: ET) ("Energy Transfer") on a diesel fuel pipeline to West Texas. Energy Transfer will operate the pipeline for the joint venture, which will transport diesel fuel from Hebert, Texas to a terminal in the Midland, Texas area. The pipeline is expected to have an initial capacity of 30,000 barrels per day and was successfully commissioned in August 2019. SUN expects its cash investment to be approximately $50 million.

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.
