Cokemaking nameplate capacity represents stated capacity for production of blast furnace coke. Middletown production and sales volumes are based on “run of oven” capacity, which includes both blast furnace coke and small coke. Using the stated capacity, Middletown nameplate capacity on a “run of oven” basis is approximately 578 thousand tons per year.

Permitting Process for Cokemaking Facilities.
The permitting process for our cokemaking facilities is administered by the individual states. However, the main requirements for obtaining environmental construction and operating permits are found in the federal regulations. Once all requirements are satisfied, a state or local agency produces an initial draft permit. Generally, the facility reviews and comments on the initial draft. After accepting or rejecting the facility’s comments, the agency typically publishes a notice regarding the issuance of the draft permit and makes the permit and supporting documents available for public review and comment. A public hearing may be scheduled, and the EPA also has the opportunity to comment on the draft permit. The state or local agency responds to comments on the draft permit and may make revisions before a final construction permit is issued. A construction permit allows construction and commencement of operations of the facility and is generally valid for at least
18
months. Generally, construction commences during this period, while many states allow this period to be extended in certain situations. A facility's operating permit may be a state operating permit or a Title V operating permit.
|
•
|
Air Quality.
Our cokemaking facilities employ MACT standards designed to limit emissions of certain hazardous air pollutants. Specific MACT standards apply to door leaks, charging, oven pressure, pushing and quenching. Certain MACT standards for new cokemaking facilities were developed using test data from SunCoke's Jewell cokemaking facility located in Vansant, Virginia. Under applicable federal air quality regulations, permitting requirements may differ among facilities, depending upon whether the cokemaking facility will be located in an “attainment” area—i.e., one that meets the national ambient air quality standards (“NAAQS”) for certain pollutants, or in a “non-attainment” or "unclassifiable" area. The status of an area may change over time as new NAAQS standards are adopted, resulting in an area change from one status or classification to another. In an attainment area, the facility must install air pollution control equipment or employ BACT. In a non-attainment area, the facility must install air pollution control equipment or employ procedures that meet LAER standards. LAER standards are the most stringent emission limitation achieved in practice by existing facilities. Unlike the BACT analysis, cost is generally not considered as part of a LAER analysis, and emissions in a non-attainment area must be offset by emission reductions obtained from other sources.
|

Stringent NAAQS for ambient nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide went into effect in 2010. In July 2013, the EPA identified or "designated" as non-attainment 29 areas in 16 states where monitored air quality showed violations of the 2010 1-hour SO2 NAAQS. In August 2015, the EPA finalized a new rulemaking to assist in implementation of the primary 1-hour SO2 NAAQS that requires either additional monitoring, or modeling of ambient air SO2 levels in various areas including where certain of our facilities are located. By July 2016, states subject to this rulemaking were required to provide the EPA with either a modeling approach using existing emissions data, or a plan to undertake ambient air monitoring for SO2 to begin in 2017. For states that choose to install ambient air SO2 monitoring stations, after three years of data has been collected, or sometime in 2020, the EPA will evaluate this data relative to the appropriate attainment designation for the areas under the 1-hour SO2 NAAQS. For states that chose to model, designations were made by December 2017. This rulemaking required certain of our facilities to undertake this ambient air monitoring or modeling. In December 2017, EPA issued a final designation of attainment or unclassifiable for all areas where our facilities are located. These designations mean that no future action is required for the facilities with respect to SO2 emissions at this time. However, legal challenges to these designations are possible. If redesignated, we may be required

The EPA adopted a rule in
2010
requiring a new facility that is a major source of greenhouse gases (“GHGs”) to install equipment or employ BACT procedures. Currently, there is little information on what may be acceptable as BACT to control GHGs (primarily carbon dioxide from our facilities), but the database and additional guidance may be enhanced in the future.
|
•
|
Several states have additional requirements and standards other than those in the federal statutes and regulations. Many states have lists of “air toxics” with emission limitations determined by dispersion modeling. States also often have specific regulations that deal with visible emissions, odors and nuisance. In some cases, the state delegates some or all of these functions to local agencies.
|
•
|
Wastewater and Stormwater.
Our heat recovery cokemaking technology does not produce wastewater as is typically associated with by-product cokemaking. Our cokemaking facilities, in some cases, have wastewater discharge and stormwater permits.
|
•
|
Waste.
The primary solid waste product from our heat recovery cokemaking technology is calcium sulfate from flue gas desulfurization, which is generally taken to a solid waste landfill. The material from periodic cleaning of heat recovery steam generators has been disposed of as hazardous waste. On the whole, our heat recovery cokemaking process does not generate substantial quantities of hazardous waste.
|
•
|
U.S. Endangered Species Act.
The U.S. Endangered Species Act and certain counterpart state regulations are intended to protect species whose populations allow for categorization as either endangered or threatened. With respect to permitting additional cokemaking facilities, protection of endangered or threatened species may have the effect of prohibiting, limiting the extent of or placing permitting conditions on soil removal, road building and other activities in areas containing the affected species. Based on the species that have been designated as endangered or threatened on our properties and the current application of these laws and regulations, we do not believe that they are likely to have a material adverse effect on our operations.

Permitting Process for Former Coal Mining Operations.
The U.S. coal mining permit application process is initiated by collecting baseline data to adequately assess and model the pre-mine environmental condition of the permit area, including geologic data, soil and rock structures, cultural resources, soils, surface and ground water hydrology, and coal that we intend to mine. We use this data to develop a mine and reclamation plan, which incorporate provisions of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (“SMCRA”), state programs and complementary environmental programs that impact coal mining. The permit application includes the mine and reclamation plan, documents defining ownership and agreements pertaining to coal, minerals, oil and gas, water rights, rights of way and surface land and documents required by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement’s (“OSM’s”) Applicant Violator System. Once a permit application is submitted to the regulatory agency, it goes through a completeness and technical review before a public notice and comment period. Some SMCRA mine permits take over a year to prepare, depending on the size and complexity of the mine, and often take six months to two years to be issued. Regulatory authorities have considerable discretion in the timing of the permit issuance and the public has the right to

Bonding Requirements for Permits Related to Former Coal Mining Operations and Coal Terminals with Surface Mining Permits.
Before a SMCRA permit or a surface mining permit is issued in West Virginia, a mine operator must submit a bond or other form of financial security to guarantee the payment and performance of certain long-term mine closure and reclamation obligations. The costs of these bonds or other forms of financial security have fluctuated in recent years and the market terms of surety bonds generally have become less favorable to those entities with legacy mining obligations or terminal operators and others with such permits. These changes in the terms of such bonds have been accompanied, at times, by a decrease in the number of companies willing to issue surety bonds. As of
December 31, 2018
, we have posted $10.3 million in surety bonds or other forms of financial security for reclamation purposes.

Clean Air Act.
The Clean Air Act and similar state laws and regulations affect our cokemaking operations, primarily through permitting and/or emissions control requirements relating to particulate matter (“PM”) and sulfur dioxide (“SO2”) and MACT standards. The Clean Air Act air emissions programs that may affect our operations, directly or indirectly, include, but are not limited to: the Acid Rain Program; NAAQS implementation for SO2, PM and nitrogen oxides (“NOx”), lead ozone and carbon monoxide; GHG rules; the Clean Air Interstate Rule; MACT emissions limits for hazardous air pollutants; the Regional Haze Program; New Source Performance Standards (“NSPS”); and New Source Review. The Clean Air Act requires, among other things, the regulation of hazardous air pollutants through the development and promulgation of various industry-specific MACT standards. Our cokemaking facilities are subject to two categories of MACT standards. The first category applies to pushing and quenching. The second category applies to emissions from charging and coke oven doors. The EPA is required to make a risk-based determination for pushing and quenching emissions and determine whether additional emissions reductions are necessary. In 2016, EPA issued a request for information and testing to our cokemaking facilities and other companies as part of its residual risk and technology review of the MACT standard for pushing and quenching, and a technology review of the MACT standard for coke ovens and charging emissions. Testing was conducted by our cokemaking facilities in 2017, but the EPA has yet to publish or propose any residual risk standards; therefore, the impact of potential additional EPA regulation in this area cannot be estimated at this time.
|
•
|
Terminal Operations.
Our terminal operations located along waterways and the Gulf of Mexico are also governed by permitting requirements under the CWA and CAA. These terminals are subject to U.S. Coast Guard regulations and comparable state statutes regarding design, installation, construction, and management. Many such terminals owned and operated by other entities that are also used to transport coal and petcoke, including for export, have been pursued by environmental interest groups for alleged violations of their permits’ requirements, or have seen their efforts to obtain or renew such permits contested by such groups. While we believe that our operations are in material compliance with these permits, it is possible that such challenges or claims will be made against our operations in the future. Moreover, our terminal operations may be affected by the impacts of additional regulation on petcoke or on the mining of all types of coal and use of thermal coal for fuel, which is restricting supply in some markets and may reduce the volumes of coal that our terminals manage.

|
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) regulates the sales of electricity from our Haverhill and Middletown facilities, including the implementation of the Federal Power Act (“FPA”) and the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (“PURPA”). The nature of the operations of the Haverhill and Middletown facilities makes each facility a qualifying facility under PURPA, which exempts the facilities and the Company from certain regulatory burdens, including the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005 (“PUHCA”), limited provisions of the FPA, and certain state laws and regulation. FERC has granted requests for authority to sell electricity from the Haverhill and Middletown facilities at market-based rates and the entities are subject to FERC’s market-based rate regulations, which require regular regulatory compliance filings.

|
Clean Water Act of 1972.
Although our cokemaking facilities generally do not have water discharge permits, the Clean Water Act (“CWA”) may affect our operations by requiring water quality standards generally and through the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”). Regular monitoring, reporting requirements and performance standards are requirements of NPDES permits that govern the discharge of pollutants into water. Discharges must either meet state water quality standards or be authorized through

•
|
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
We may generate wastes, including “solid” wastes and “hazardous” wastes that are subject to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) and comparable state statutes, although certain mining and mineral beneficiation wastes and certain wastes derived from the combustion of coal currently are exempt from regulation as hazardous wastes under RCRA. The EPA has limited the disposal options for certain wastes that are designated as hazardous wastes under RCRA. Furthermore, it is possible that certain wastes generated by our operations that currently are exempt from regulation as hazardous wastes may in the future be designated as hazardous wastes, and therefore be subject to more rigorous and costly management, disposal and clean-up requirements. Certain of our wastes are also subject to Department of Transportation regulations for shipping of materials.

Climate Change Legislation and Regulations.
Our facilities are presently subject to the GHG reporting rule, which obligates us to report annual emissions of GHGs. The EPA also finalized a rule in 2010 requiring a new facility that is a major source of GHGs to install equipment or employ BACT procedures. In 2014, the Supreme Court issued an opinion holding that although EPA may not treat GHGs as a pollutant for the purpose of determining whether a source must obtain a PSD or Title V permit, EPA may continue to require GHG limitations in permits for sources classified as major based on their emission of other pollutants. Currently there is little information as to what may constitute BACT for GHG in most industries. Under this rule, certain modifications to our facilities could subject us to the additional permitting and other obligations relative to emissions of GHGs under the New Source Review/Prevention of Significant Deterioration ("NSR/PSD") and Title V programs of the Clean Air Act based on whether the facility triggered NSR/PSD because of emissions of another pollutant such as SO2, NOx, PM, ozone or lead. The EPA has engaged in rulemaking to regulate GHG emissions from existing and new coal fired power plants, and we expect continued legal challenges to this rulemaking and any future rulemaking for other industries. For instance, in August 2015, the EPA issued its final Clean Power Plan rules establishing carbon pollution standards for power plants.
In February 2016, the U.S. Supreme Court granted a stay of the implementation of the Clean Power Plan before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia (“D.C. Circuit”) issued a decision on the rule. By its terms, this stay will remain in effect throughout the pendency of the appeals process including at the D.C. Circuit and the Supreme Court through any certiorari petition that may be granted. In October 2017, the EPA proposed to repeal the Clean Power Plan ("CPP") although the final outcome of this proposal and the pending litigation regarding the CPP is uncertain at this time. In connection with this proposed repeal, EPA issued an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking ("ANPRM") in December 2017 regarding emission guidelines to limit GHG emissions from existing electric utility generating units. The ANPRM seeks comment regarding what the EPA should include in a potential new, existing source regulation of GHG emissions under the Clean Air Act that the EPA may propose.
On October 9, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected any further challenges to the decision to repeal the Clean Power Plan. Although EPA proposed the Affordable Clean Energy (“ACE”) rule as a replacement for the CPP in August 2018, the ACE rule has not yet been finalized.

Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006.
The Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006 (the “Miner Act”), has increased significantly the enforcement of safety and health standards and imposed safety and health standards on all aspects of mining operations. There also has been a significant increase in the dollar penalties assessed for citations issued.

Safety.
Our facilities are subject to regulation by OSHA and other agencies with standards designed to ensure worker safety. As noted above, we have consistently operated within the top quartiles for OSHA’s recordable injury rates as measured and reported by the American Coke and Coal Chemicals Institute.
|
•
|
Security.
CMT is subject to regulation by the U.S. Coast Guard pursuant to the Maritime Transportation Security Act. We have an internal inspection program designed to monitor and ensure compliance by CMT with these requirements. We believe that we are in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the security of the facility.

Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977.
The SMCRA established comprehensive operational, environmental, reclamation and closure standards for all aspects of U.S. surface mining as well as many aspects of deep mining. Where state regulatory agencies have adopted federal mining programs under SMCRA, the state becomes the regulatory authority, and states that operate federally approved state programs may impose standards that are more stringent than the requirements of SMCRA. Permitting under SMCRA generally has become more difficult in recent years, which adversely affects the cost and availability of coal. The Abandoned Mine Land Fund, which is part of SMCRA, assesses a fee on all coal produced in the U.S. From October 1, 2007 through September 30, 2012, the fee was $0.315 per ton of surface-mined coal and $0.135 per ton of underground mined coal. From October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2021, the fee has been reduced to $0.28 per ton of surface-mined coal and $0.12 per ton of underground mined coal. Our reclamation obligations under applicable environmental laws could be substantial. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"), we are required to account for the costs related to the closure of mines and the reclamation of the land upon exhaustion of coal reserves. The fair value of an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The present value of the estimated asset retirement costs is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. At
December 31, 2018
, we had an asset retirement obligation of
$4.3 million
related to estimated mine reclamation costs. The amounts recorded are dependent upon a number of variables, including the estimated future retirement costs, inflation rates, and the assumed credit-adjusted interest rates. Our future operating results would be adversely affected if these accruals were determined to be insufficient. These obligations are unfunded. Further, although specific criteria varies from state to state as to what constitutes an “owner” or “controller” relationship, under SMCRA the responsibility for reclamation or remediation, unabated violations, unpaid civil penalties and unpaid reclamation fees of independent contract mine operators can be imputed to other companies which are deemed, according to the regulations, to have “owned” or “controlled” the contract mine operator. Sanctions are quite severe and can include being denied new permits, permit amendments, permit revisions and revocation or suspension of permits issued since the violation or penalty or fee due date.

Black Lung Benefits Revenue Act of 1977 and Black Lung Benefits Reform Act of 1977, as amended in 1981.
Under these laws, each U.S. coal mine operator must pay federal black lung benefits and medical expenses to claimants who are current and former employees and last worked for the operator after July 1, 1973. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”), which was implemented in 2010, amended previous legislation and provides for the automatic extension of awarded lifetime benefits to surviving spouses and changes the legal criteria used to assess and award claims. Our obligation related to black lung benefits at
December 31, 2018
was
$49.4 million
and was estimated based on various assumptions, including actuarial estimates, discount rates, number of active claims, changes in health care costs and the impact of PPACA.

Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act.
Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), also known as Superfund, and similar state laws, responsibility for the entire cost of clean-up of a contaminated site, as well as natural resource damages, can be imposed upon current or former site owners or operators, or upon any party who released one or more designated “hazardous substances” at the site, regardless of the lawfulness of the original activities that led to the contamination. In the course of our operations we may have generated and may generate wastes that fall within CERCLA’s definition of hazardous substances. We also may be an owner or operator of facilities at which hazardous substances have been released by previous owners or operators. Under CERCLA, we may be responsible for all or part of the costs of cleaning up facilities at which such substances have been released and for natural resource damages. We also must comply with reporting requirements under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act and the Toxic Substances Control Act.

Risk Factors
|
•
|
geological, hydrologic, or other conditions that may cause damage to infrastructure or personnel;
|
•
|
fire, explosion, or other major incident causing injury to personnel and/or equipment, that causes a cessation, or significant curtailment, of all or part of our cokemaking or logics operations at a site for a period of time;
|
•
|
processing and plant equipment failures, operating hazards and unexpected maintenance problems affecting our cokemaking or logistics operations, or our customers;
|
•
|
adverse weather and natural disasters, such as severe winds, heavy rains or snow, flooding, extreme temperatures and other natural events affecting our cokemaking or logistics operations, transportation, or our customers; and

possible legal challenges to the renewal of key permits, which may lead to their renewal on terms that restrict our cokemaking or logistics operations, or impose additional costs on us.
|
•
|
Cokemaking operations
: Historically, coke has been used as a main input in the production of steel in blast furnaces. However, some blast furnace operators have relied upon natural gas, pulverized coal, and/or other coke substitutes. Many steelmakers also are exploring alternatives to blast furnace technology that require less or no use of coke. For example, electric arc furnace technology is a commercially proven process widely used in the U.S. As these alternative processes for production of steel become more widespread, the demand for coke, including the coke we produce, may be significantly reduced. We also face competition from alternative cokemaking technologies, including both by-product and heat recovery technologies. As these technologies improve and as new technologies are developed, competition in the cokemaking industry may intensify. As alternative processes for production of steel become more widespread, the demand for coke, including the coke we produce, may be significantly reduced.
|
•
|
Logistics business
: Decreased throughput and utilization of our logistics assets could result indirectly due to competition in the electrical power generation business from abundant and relatively inexpensive supplies of natural gas displacing thermal coal as a fuel for electrical power generation by utility companies. In addition, competition in the steel industry from processes such as electric arc furnaces, or blast furnace injection of pulverized coal or natural gas, may reduce the demand for metallurgical coals processed through our logistics facilities. In the future, additional coal handling facilities and terminals with rail and/or barge access may be constructed in the Eastern U.S. Such additional facilities could compete directly with us in specific markets now served by our logistics business. Certain coal mining companies and independent terminal operators in some areas may compete directly with our logistics facilities. In some markets, trucks may competitively deliver mined coal to certain shorter-haul destinations, resulting in reduced utilization of existing terminal capacity.

|
requiring a substantial portion of our cash flows to be dedicated to debt service payments instead of other purposes, thereby reducing the amount of cash flows available for the payment of dividends, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
|
•
|
increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

•
|
exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of our borrowings, including borrowings under the credit facilities, are at variable rates of interest;
|
•
|
limiting our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in the industry in which we compete;
|
•
|
placing us at a competitive disadvantage to other, less leveraged competitors; and
|
•
|
increasing our cost of borrowing.
|
•
|
a significant portion of our cash flows could be used to service our indebtedness;
|
•
|
a high level of debt would increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
|
•
|
the covenants contained in the agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness will limit our ability to borrow additional funds, dispose of assets, pay distributions and make certain investments;
|
•
|
a high level of debt may place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that are less leveraged, and therefore may be able to take advantage of opportunities that our indebtedness would prevent us from pursuing;

a high level of debt may impair our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, distributions or for general corporate or other purposes.
|
•
|
Thermal coal demand
: may be impacted by changes in the energy consumption pattern of industrial consumers, electricity generators and residential users, as well as weather conditions and extreme temperatures. The amount of thermal coal consumed for electric power generation is affected primarily by the overall demand for electricity, the availability, quality and price of competing fuels for power generation, and governmental regulation. For example, over the past few years, production of natural gas in the U.S. has increased dramatically, which has resulted in lower natural-gas prices. As a result of sustained low natural gas prices, coal-fuel generation plants have been displaced by natural-gas fueled generation plants. In addition, state and federal mandates for increased use of electricity from renewable energy sources, or the retrofitting of existing coal-fired generators with pollution control systems, also could adversely impact the demand for thermal coal. Finally, unusually warm winter weather may reduce the commercial and residential needs for heat and electricity which, in turn, may reduce the demand for thermal coal; and
|
•
|
Metallurgical coal demand
: may be impacted adversely by economic downturns resulting in decreased demand for steel and an overall decline in steel production. A decline in blast furnace production of steel may reduce the demand for furnace coke, an intermediate product made from metallurgical coal. Decreased demand for metallurgical coal also may result from increased steel industry utilization of processes that do not use, or reduce the need for, furnace coke, such as electric arc furnaces, or blast furnace injection of pulverized coal or natural gas.

If the Partnership’s income from cokemaking operations “was qualified income under the statute as reasonably interpreted prior to May 6, 2015,” then the Partnership will have a transition period ending on December 31, 2027, during which it can treat income from its existing cokemaking activities as qualifying income. The Partnership’s transitional status during this period is likely to impair the growth prospects of the Partnership, and we do not expect that the Partnership would acquire additional cokemaking operations from third parties or from us without receipt of an IRS private letter ruling confirming the availability of the transition period as applied to the income from such an acquisition.
|
•
|
The IRS might challenge treatment by the Partnership of income from its cokemaking operations as qualifying income by asserting that such treatment did not rely upon a reasonable interpretation of the statute prior to May 6, 2015. If so, nothing would preclude the IRS from challenging the Partnership’s status as a partnership for federal income tax purposes from the time of the Partnership’s initial public offering. If this challenge were to occur and prevail, (i) the Partnership would be taxed retroactively as if it were a corporation at federal and state tax rates, likely resulting in a material amount of taxable income and taxes in certain open years, (ii) historical and future distributions would generally be taxed again as corporate distributions and (iii) no income, gains, losses, deductions or credits recognized by the Partnership would flow to unitholders of the Partnership. This would result in a material reduction in the Partnership’s cash flow and after-tax return to the Partnership’s unitholders and the recording of an income tax provision and a reduction in net income.

In April 2016, the Company recorded losses related to the divestiture of its coal mining business to Revelation Energy, LLC of $14.7 million. During 2014, we recorded total impairment charges related to our coal mining business of $150.3 million, which included both long-lived asset and goodwill impairment charges.
|

|
On June 27, 2018, the Company sold its investment in VISA SunCoke Limited ("VISA SunCoke"), resulting in a net $5.4 million loss from equity method investment. During 2015 and 2014, we recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges on our investment in VISA SunCoke of $19.4 million and $30.5 million, respectively. The 2015 impairment charges brought our investment in VISA SunCoke to zero.

|
During 2017, the Company recorded
$154.7 million
of net tax benefits,
$125.0 million
of which were attributable to SunCoke, related to the new Tax Legislation. Additionally, during 2017, the Company recorded deferred income tax expense of
$64.2 million
, all of which was attributable to noncontrolling interest, related to the Final Regulations. See

Achieved financial objectives.
We delivered net income of
$47.0 million
and Adjusted EBITDA of
$263.2 million
, our highest annual Adjusted EBITDA performance since 2012 and above our guidance range of $240 million to $255 million. We also generated
$185.8 million
of operating cash flow, above our guidance of $150 million to $165 million. Domestic Coke contributed Adjusted EBITDA per ton of approximately
$51.55
, at the high-end of our guidance range of $50 to $52 per ton, on 4.0 million tons sold. Logistics delivered Adjusted EBITDA of
$72.6 million
, within our guidance range of $71 million to $76 million, reflecting the highest annual volumes in CMT’s history.
|
•
|
Completed 67 oven rebuilds at Indiana Harbor.
We successfully achieved our goal of rebuilding 67 ovens in 2018. In total, we have rebuilt 211 of 268 ovens, which represents approximately 80 percent of the entire facility. Indiana Harbor's 2018 Adjusted EBITDA was $15.2 million on 957 thousand tons of coke sales. Improved operating performance from rebuilt ovens and higher operating and maintenance cost recovery drove a
$33.7 million
increase in Adjusted EBITDA in 2018 compared to 2017.
|
•
|
Achieved de-leveraging goals.
We achieved our objective to pay down $25 million on the Partnership Revolver in 2018. We continue to maintain our focus on strengthening our balance sheet and continuing to reduce debt in 2019.
|
•
|
Leveraged CMT capabilities to further diversify customer and product mix.
We continued to further diversify the product mix by handling petroleum coke, aggregates and liquids, and we remain focused on adding additional dry bulk products to grow the terminal. In 2018, we moved approximately one million merchant tons of bulk products through CMT.
|
•
|
Delivered operational excellence and optimized our asset base.
We continued to improve operational performance across both our coke and logistics businesses, which was reflected by the increase in volumes in both segments during 2018. We encountered operational challenges at our Granite City facility during 2018, which included an extended outage and a machinery fire. As part of the extended outage, we completed various upgrades on our heat recovery steam generators and flue gas desulfurization system in order to improve the long-term reliability and
|
•
|
Achieve financial objectives.
We expect to deliver Adjusted EBITDA of between $265 million and $275 million and operating cash flow of between $180 million and $195 million. Significant operational improvements at Granite City, improved performance from rebuilt ovens at Indiana Harbor and solid ongoing operations across the remaining Domestic Coke fleet are expected to contribute to the growth in Adjusted EBITDA.
|
•
|
Complete last phase of oven rebuilds at Indiana Harbor.
We expect our Indiana Harbor cokemaking operation to deliver approximately $22 million in Adjusted EBITDA on approximately 1,025 thousand tons of coke sales. The 2019 oven rebuilds are expected to cost between $50 million to $60 million, including capital expenditures between $40 million to $48 million, and will be completed by the end of 2019. Once the final phase of the oven rebuild campaign is complete, we anticipate Indiana Harbor will produce at near nameplate coke capacity and generate run-rate Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $50 million.

|
Complete the Simplification Transaction.
On February 5, 2019, the Company and the Partnership announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement whereby SunCoke will acquire all outstanding common units of the Partnership not already owned by SunCoke in a stock-for-unit merger transaction (the “Simplification Transaction”).
|
◦
|
Simplification of the organizational and governance structure, reducing complexity for investors
|
◦
|
Creation of a larger publicly-traded company, increasing public float and enhancing trading liquidity
|
◦
|
Immediately accretive to SunCoke shareholders
|
◦
|
SunCoke intends to initiate a $0.24 annual dividend per share, in the first full quarter after closing the transaction
|
◦
|
Improved credit profile and enhanced access to capital markets lowers cost of capital
|
◦
|
Consolidation of cash flow and elimination of master limited partnership distribution accelerates objective of reducing leverage
|
◦
|
Estimated cost synergies of approximately $2 million per year from eliminating dual public company requirements and estimated cash tax savings of $40 million over the next five years
|
◦
|
More cash flow available to deploy for organic growth projects, attractive merger and acquisition opportunities and/or to return capital to shareholders
|
◦
|
Elimination of master limited partnership qualifying income limitations on growth
|
•
|
Pursue growth opportunities.
Simplifying SunCoke’s structure will enable us to pursue an expanded universe of growth opportunities and enable us to be more competitive as we look to execute on our growth strategy. Our strategy focuses on four business initiatives, which include growing our coke market share in the North America, expanding and optimizing our logistics assets, developing additional business lines within the domestic steel and carbon markets and leveraging our technology to expand in select global markets. These are all areas that closely align with our core competencies, where our knowledge and technical expertise can create additional value for our shareholders.
|
•
|
Deliver operational excellence and optimize our asset base.
We remain focused on further improving operational performance across both our coke and logistics businesses, as well as successfully executing on our 2019 capital plan. We expect operational improvements at Granite City to generate an increase in production and higher energy revenues as well as lower operating and maintenance costs. We also continue to work to secure further new business and diversify our customer base.

India Equity Method Investment.
On June 27, 2018, the Company sold its 49 percent investment in VISA SunCoke Limited ("VISA SunCoke") for cash consideration of $4.0 million. Consequently, the Company recognized $9.0 million of accumulated currency translation losses and incurred $0.4 million of transaction costs, resulting in a net $5.4 million loss from equity method investment in 2018 on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Our investment in VISA SunCoke was previously accounted for as an equity method investment and was fully impaired in 2015.
|
•
|
Debt Activities.
On January 11, 2018, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding 2019 Notes for $46.1 million. The Company funded the redemption with a Term Loan in aggregate principal amount of $45.0 million, which will mature on May 24, 2022.
|

|
Tax Rulings.
|
◦
|
Tax Legislation.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Legislation”) was enacted. The Tax Legislation significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax structure, including lowering corporate income tax rates. As a result, in 2017, SunCoke recorded net income tax benefits of
$154.7 million
, of which
$125.0 million
was attributable to the Company, resulting from the remeasurement of U.S. deferred income tax liabilities and assets at the lower enacted corporate tax rates. During 2018, based on an updated analysis of the foreign tax credit rules relating to the new Tax Legislation, the Company revised its estimate of the realizability of its foreign tax credits, resulting in a $4.8 million benefit on the consolidated Statements of Income. See
Note 5
to our consolidated financial statements.
|
◦
|
IRS Final Regulations on Qualifying Income.
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. Subsequent to the 10-year transition period, certain cokemaking entities in the Partnership will become taxable as corporations. As a result, the Partnership recorded deferred income tax expense of
$148.6 million
to set up its initial deferred income tax liability during 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. However, the Company had previously 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. As such, the Company's 2017 financial statements reflected the
$64.2 million
incremental impact from the Final Regulations solely attributable to the Partnership’s public unitholders, which was also recorded as an equal reduction to noncontrolling interest. As a result, the Final Regulations had no impact to net income attributable to the Company.
|
•
|
Redemption of Investment in Brazilian Cokemaking Operations.
In November 2016, ArcelorMittal Brazil redeemed SunCoke’s indirectly held preferred and common equity interest in Sol Coqueria Tubarão S.A. ("Brazil Investment") for consideration of
$41.0 million
, an amount equal to our carrying value of the investment. The Company received
$20.5 million
in cash at closing in 2016 and received the remaining
$20.5 million
in cash, plus interest of
$0.2 million
, in 2017.
|
•
|
Loss on Divestiture of Business.
In April 2016, the Company completed the disposal of its coal mining business to Revelation Energy, LLC ("Revelation"). Revelation assumed substantially all of the Company's remaining coal mining assets, mineral leases, real estate and a substantial portion of our mining reclamation obligations. Under the terms of the agreement, Revelation received
$12.8 million
from the Company to take ownership of the assets and liabilities. During 2016, the Company recognized losses associated with this divestiture of
$14.7 million
.

The loss in 2017 was primarily due to the net impacts of the Final Regulations and the new Legislation, previously discussed in "Items Impacting Comparability." Comparability between periods was also impacted by the gains and losses associated with the Partnership debt activities in 2017 and 2016, 38 percent of which is attributable to the public unitholders.

Sales volumes increased over 180 thousand tons in 2018, primarily due to improved operating performance from rebuilt ovens at Indiana Harbor. In 2017, sales volumes were 105 thousand tons lower than in 2016 and were negatively impacted by ovens that were out of service in connection with the ongoing oven rebuild initiative at Indiana Harbor as well as a decrease in volumes to AK Steel, for which AK Steel provided make whole payments.
|
(2)
|
Revenues and the impact of coal-to-coke yields on Adjusted EBITDA move directionally with changes in coal prices, which increased in both 2018 and 2017 as compared to the prior year periods. Additionally, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA benefited from improved operational coal-to-coke yields, primarily at our Indiana Harbor facility in 2017 and again in 2018 as the facility realized benefits from the oven rebuild initiative.
|
(3)
|
In 2018, the operating cost component of the contract at our Indiana Harbor facility changed from fixed recovery per ton to an annually negotiated budget, which drove favorable operating and maintenance cost recovery of $10.8 million as compared to 2017. This 2018 improvement was offset by the timing and scope of outage work at other facilities, which negatively impacted Adjusted EBITDA by $6.6 million. Higher operating and maintenance costs in 2017 as compared to 2016 was driven by an increase in the number of oven rebuilds at Indiana Harbor.
|
(4)
|
The decrease in energy in 2018 as compared to 2017 was primarily driven by our extended Granite City outage and the impact a machinery fire had on coke production and energy. The improvement in 2017 as compared to 2016 was driven by the impact of a turbine failure at our Haverhill facility in October 2016, which was fully restored in January 2017. This turbine failure adversely affected energy production in 2016, although the impact was partially mitigated by insurance recoveries.

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. Subsequent to the 10-year transition period, certain cokemaking entities in the Partnership will become taxable as corporations. As a result, the Partnership recorded deferred income tax expense of
$148.6 million
to set up its initial deferred income tax liability during 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. However, the Company had previously 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. As such, the Company's 2017 financial statements reflect the
$64.2 million
incremental impact from the Final Regulations solely attributable to the Partnership’s public unitholders, which was also recorded as an equal reduction to noncontrolling interest.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Legislation was enacted. The Tax Legislation significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax structure, including lowering corporate income tax rates. In addition, the SEC staff released Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 on December 23, 2017, which provided for companies to record a provisional impact of the Tax Legislation during a measurement period, not to exceed one year, in situations where companies do not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed in reasonable detail to complete the accounting under ASC 740, "Income Taxes", for certain income tax effects of the Tax Legislation for the reporting period which includes enactment. During 2017, SunCoke recorded a provisional net income tax benefit of
$154.7 million
, of which
$125.0 million
was attributable to the Company, for the impact of this Tax Legislation. These benefits were primarily due to the
$169.0 million
net benefit resulting from the remeasurement of U.S. deferred income tax liabilities and assets at the lower enacted corporate tax rates. During 2017, based on information available at the time, the Company recorded provisional income tax expense of
$14.3 million
for a valuation allowance against
$19.0 million
of foreign tax credit carryforwards that the Company believed would not be realized prior to their expiration as a result of the Tax Legislation. Based on an updated analysis of the foreign tax credit rules relating to the new Tax Legislation, the Company revised its estimate of the realizability of its foreign tax credits, resulting in a net
$4.8 million
benefit during the third quarter of 2018. There were no other significant changes to previous estimates and amounts recorded in 2017 relating to this Tax Legislation.
|
(3)
|
Excludes the impact of the Final Regulations on qualifying income discussed above.
No
income tax expense is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income for income attributable to noncontrolling interests in partnership entities.
|
(4)
|
In 2017, the Company recorded a valuation allowance as a result of changes in future state allocation assumptions.

In conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2017-07, the non-service type expense associated with the postretirement benefit plans was excluded from operating income and recorded in interest expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income during the periods presented. Amounts in prior periods were immaterial, and therefore, were not reclassified in the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income and net cash provided by operating activities.

In 2014, we finalized the required permitting and engineering plan for a potential new cokemaking facility, however, the project was terminated. As a result, during 2017 and 2016, the Company wrote-off previously capitalized engineering costs and land deposits for a potential new cokemaking facility of
$5.3 million
and
$1.9 million
, respectively. These costs were included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
