SUNCOKE ENERGY PARTNERS, L.P. ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2014 EARNINGS
AND ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL INTEREST IN COKEMAKING FACILITIES
| • | Net income attributable to SXCP in first quarter 2014 was $13.2 million, or $0.41 per unit |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA of $36.0 million in first quarter 2014 reflects the impact of severe winter weather on our cokemaking and coal logistics businesses |
| • | Distributable cash flow in first quarter 2014 totaled $16.9 million, supporting a 5.3 percent increase in the cash distribution rate to $0.50 per unit for the May 30, 2014 payment and resulting in a cash coverage ratio of 1.04x based on current units outstanding |
| • | Anticipate increasing second quarter cash distribution payable in August 2014 to $0.515 per unit |
| • | Executed agreement to acquire an additional 33 percent interest in the Haverhill and Middletown cokemaking facilities for total consideration of $365 million |
| • | Acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive, increasing distributable cash flow per limited partner unit by an estimated 7 percent to 8 percent |
Lisle, IL (April 23, 2014) - SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (NYSE: SXCP) today reported first quarter 2014 net income attributable to SXCP of $13.2 million, or $0.41 per unit. Performance in first quarter 2014 was impacted by severe winter weather. First quarter 2013 net income attributable to SXCP of $11.8 million, or $0.37 per unit, is not comparable as it reflects a shortened quarter due to the timing of the closing of our initial public offering on January 24, 2013.
SXCP also announced that on April 23, 2014 it entered into a contribution agreement with its sponsor, SunCoke Energy, Inc. (NYSE: SXC), to acquire an additional 33 percent interest in the Haverhill and Middletown cokemaking facilities for total consideration of $365 million. When closed, the transaction will increase SXCP’s ownership interest in these facilities to 98 percent, up from the current 65 percent level.
“The extreme cold weather this past winter impacted our cokemaking and coal logistics businesses, resulting in lower than expected performance in the first quarter. Nevertheless, we still generated nearly $17 million of distributable cash flow, which enabled us to increase cash distributions per unit for the fourth consecutive quarter,” said Fritz Henderson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SXCP. “This is a track record we intend to build on as we pursue plans to acquire all of our sponsor’s domestic cokemaking assets over time. Today’s agreement to acquire an additional 33 percent interest in our Haverhill and Middletown facilities is the next step in this plan and supports our goal to increase cash distributions per unit by at least 8 percent to 10 percent annually over the next three years.”
CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
In connection with the agreement to acquire an additional 33 percent interest in the Haverhill and Middletown cokemaking facilities, we intend to issue approximately $80 million of common units and $3 million of general partner interests in consideration for the contribution. In addition, we plan to assume and repay approximately $271 million of outstanding SXC debt and other liabilities. The $271 million debt assumption and repayment obligation
1
consists of approximately $100 million of SXC’s outstanding term loan debt and $171 million of principal and estimated premium of SXC’s 7.625 percent senior notes. The cash portion of the consideration will be approximately $10 million, of which we expect to retain approximately $7 million to pre-fund SXC’s obligation to indemnify us for the anticipated cost of an environmental remediation project at Haverhill.
We expect to fund the debt assumption and cash portions of the consideration with approximately $80 million of net proceeds from the sale of common units to the public and $260 million from the issuance of debt. Proceeds from the offerings will also be used to repay approximately $40 million outstanding on our revolving credit facility, pay transaction fees and for general corporate purposes.
The additional interest in the Haverhill and Middletown cokemaking facilities we will acquire under the contribution agreement is expected to generate on an annual basis Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXCP of approximately $44 million, net of incremental allocated corporate costs, and add $23 million to distributable cash flow. We expect this acquisition to be immediately accretive, increasing distributable cash flow per limited partner unit by an estimated 7 percent to 8 percent, or $0.17 per limited partner unit, after consideration for general partner and incentive distribution rights payments.
We expect to close the acquisition of the Haverhill and Middletown interests in May 2014, subject to customary closing conditions for such transactions and the completion of the associated financing transactions. The terms of the contribution agreement, and the acquisition of the interests in Haverhill and Middletown, have been approved by the conflicts committee of our general partner’s Board of Directors, which consists entirely of independent directors. The conflicts committee was advised by Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co.

| (1) | See definition of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation elsewhere in this release. |
Revenues were $161.4 million in first quarter 2014, a decline of $23.5 million from same prior year period due to the pass-through of lower coal prices and lower coke sales volumes, partly offset by $11.7 million of revenue generated by our new Coal Logistics business.
Operating income and Adjusted EBITDA fell $8.2 million and $5.5 million in first quarter 2014 to $26.3 million and $36.0 million, respectively, compared to strong prior year performance. These declines reflect the impact of severe winter weather, which drove lower yields and production in our cokemaking business, and was partly offset by our new Coal Logistics business. The portion of Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXCP was $23.6 million in first quarter 2014.
First quarter 2014 net income attributable to SXCP was $13.2 million, or $0.41 per unit. Prior year net income attributable to SXCP of $11.8 million, or $0.37 per unit, in first quarter 2013 is not comparable as it reflects a
2
shortened quarter due to the timing of the closing of our initial public offering on January 24, 2013. Other factors affecting the year-over-year comparison of net income include the decline in operating income described above, partly offset by lower financing costs versus prior year which included expenses related to the early paydown of a term loan and fees associated with the issuance of new debt.
FIRST QUARTER SEGMENT INFORMATION
Domestic Coke
Domestic Coke segment consists of our current 65 percent ownership interest in SXC’s Haverhill and Middletown cokemaking facilities, located in Franklin Furnace and Middletown, Ohio, respectively.
Severe winter weather drove lower yields and production as well as higher operating costs, contributing to coke sales volumes falling 35 thousand tons year-over-year to 413 thousand tons and Adjusted EBITDA declining $6.2 million to $35.3 million in first quarter 2014. Prior year performance benefited from exceptionally strong coal-to-coke yields.
Coal Logistics
The Coal Logistics segment was formed as a result of our acquisitions of Lake Terminal in third quarter 2013 and KRT in fourth quarter 2013.
Coal Logistics handled 4,359 thousand tons of coal, contributing $2.1 million to Adjusted EBITDA. This lower than expected Adjusted EBITDA performance reflects higher costs and lower volumes at Lake Terminal due to weather impact.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and other costs were $1.4 million in first quarter 2014. Prior to the formation of our Coal Logistics segment in third quarter 2013, corporate costs were included in Domestic Coke segment results.
CASH DISTRIBUTIONS
On April 21, 2014, the Board of Directors of SXCP’s general partner declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.50 per limited partnership unit, an increase of 5.3 percent over the previous quarter’s cash distribution rate of $0.4750. This cash distribution will be paid May 30, 2014 to unit holders of record on May 15, 2014.

SUNCOKE ENERGY PARTNERS PREDECESSOR
Financial results for periods prior to the January 24, 2013 closing of SXCP’s initial public offering represent the financial results of SXCP’s predecessor, which was comprised of 100 percent of the cokemaking operations and related assets of SXC’s Haverhill and Middletown facilities. These financial results include all revenues, costs, assets and liabilities attributed to the predecessor after the elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Upon the closing of the IPO, SXC contributed a 65 percent interest in the predecessor to SXCP. Our financial reporting reflects SXC’s 35 percent ownership interest in these facilities as a noncontrolling interest.
NOTICE
This statement is intended to serve as qualified notice to nominees as provided for under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1446-4(b)(4) and (d) given by a publicly traded partnership for the nominee to be treated as a withholding agent. Please note that SXCP’s quarterly cash distributions are treated as partnership distributions for federal income tax purposes and that 100 percent of these distributions to foreign investors are attributable to income that is effectively connected with a United States trade or business. Accordingly, all of SXCP’s distributions to a nominee on behalf of foreign investors are subject to federal income tax withholding at the highest marginal tax rate for individuals or corporations, as applicable. Nominees, and not SXCP, are treated as the withholding agents responsible for withholding on the distributions received by them on behalf of foreign investors.

DEFINITIONS
| • | Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (“EBITDA”) adjusted for sales discounts and the interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization attributable to our equity method investment. EBITDA reflects sales discounts included as a reduction in sales and other operating revenue. The sales discounts represent the sharing with customers of a portion of nonconventional fuel tax credits, which reduce our income tax expense. However, we believe our Adjusted EBITDA would be inappropriately penalized if these discounts were treated as a reduction of EBITDA since they represent sharing of a tax benefit that is not included in EBITDA. Accordingly, in computing Adjusted EBITDA, we have added back these sales discounts. Our Adjusted EBITDA also includes EBITDA attributable to our equity method investment. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income or operating income under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures in other businesses. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of the operating performance of the Company’s net assets and 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. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of operating performance that is not |
4
| defined by GAAP, does not represent and should not be considered a substitute for net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Calculations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to those reported by other companies. |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXC/SXCP equals Adjusted EBITDA less Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests. |
| • | Distributable Cash Flow equals Adjusted EBITDA less net cash paid for interest expense, on-going capital expenditures, accruals for replacement capital expenditures, and cash distributions to noncontrolling interests; plus amounts received under the Omnibus Agreement and acquisition expenses deemed to be Expansion Capital under our Partnership Agreement. Distributable Cash Flow is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that management and external users of the Partnership’s financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies use to assess: |
| • | the Partnership’s operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships, without regard to historical cost basis; |
| • | the ability of the Partnership’s assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to the Partnership’s unitholders; |
| • | the Partnership’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and |
| • | the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities. |
The Partnership believes that Distributable Cash Flow provides useful information to investors in assessing the Partnership’s financial condition and results of operations. Distributable Cash Flow should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Distributable Cash Flow has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities and used in investing activities. Additionally, because Distributable Cash Flow may be defined differently by other companies in the industry, the Partnership’s definition of Distributable Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
| • | Ongoing capital expenditures (“capex”) are capital expenditures made to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and/or to extend their useful lives. Ongoing capex also includes new equipment that improves the efficiency, reliability or effectiveness of existing assets. Ongoing capex does not include normal repairs and maintenance, which are expensed as incurred, or significant capital expenditures. For purposes of calculating distributable cash flow, the portion of ongoing capex attributable to SXCP is used |
| • | Replacement capital expenditures (“capex”) represents an annual accrual necessary to fund SXCP’s share of the estimated costs to replace or rebuild our facilities at the end of their working lives. This accrual is estimated based on the average quarterly anticipated replacement capital that we expect to incur over the long term to replace our major capital assets at the end of their working lives. The replacement capex accrual estimate will be subject to review and prospective change by SXCP’s general partner at least annually and whenever an event occurs that causes a material adjustment of replacement capex, provided such change is approved by our conflicts committee. |
