Revenues were $8.9 million during the third quarter 2022, which was comparable to revenues of $9.2 million in the third quarter 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $3.3 million during the third quarter 2022, which was $1 .2 million lower than adjusted EBITDA of $4.5 million in the third quarter 2021, primarily due to the absence of production bonuses for meeting certain volume targets.

Our 2022 revised guidance is as follows:

Domestic Coke total production is expected to be approximately 4.1 million tons
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is expected to surpass the guidance high end of $285 million
Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $80 million

DEFINITIONS

Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted for any impairments, restructuring costs, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt and transaction costs ("Adjusted EBITDA"). 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 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. Additionally, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXC represents Adjusted EBITDA less Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release and related conference call contain "forward-looking statements" (as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Forward-looking statements often may be identified by the use of such words as "believe," "expect," "plan," "project," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "may," "will," "should," or the negative of these terms, or similar expressions. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but instead represent only our beliefs regarding future events, many of which are inherently uncertain and involve significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties (many of which are beyond the control of SunCoke) that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from the anticipated results and financial condition indicated in such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described in Item 1A ("Risk Factors") of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the most recently completed fiscal year, as well as those described from time to time in our other reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, SunCoke has included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission cautionary language identifying important factors (but not necessarily all the important factors) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by SunCoke. For information concerning these factors and other important information regarding the matters discussed in this presentation, see SunCoke's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, copies of which are available free of charge on SunCoke's website at www.suncoke.com . All forward-looking statements included in this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements. Unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this presentation also could have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, but are based upon the current knowledge, beliefs and expectations of SunCoke management, and upon assumptions by SunCoke concerning future conditions, any or all of which ultimately may prove to be inaccurate. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the earnings release. SunCoke does not intend, and expressly disclaims any obligation, to update or alter its forward-looking statements (or associated cautionary language), whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, after the date of the earnings release except as required by applicable law.

In addition, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are included following the presentation of financial and operating results included at the end of this press release.

Increasing full year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA guidance range from $240 million - $255 million to $270 million - $285 million , reflecting continued success in the export coke market and strong performance at CMT

SunCoke Energy, Inc. (NYSE: SXC) today reported results for the second quarter 2022, reflecting continued strong performance in our Domestic Coke and Logistics segments.

"Our Domestic Coke and Logistics segments continued to perform well in the second quarter with the backdrop of strong commodity markets. Although our coke production was impacted due to planned outages this quarter, it was more than offset by higher margins from our export coke sales. Our Logistics segment continues to deliver solid results, with higher volumes at our domestic terminals and favorable pricing at CMT," said Mike Rippey , President and Chief Executive Officer of SunCoke Energy, Inc. "Recognizing both record first half performance and softening export coke market conditions, we are increasing full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $270 million - $285 million . Additionally our Board of Directors approved a 33% increase in quarterly dividends from 6 cents to 8 cents per share effective the next quarterly payment on September 1st ."

SECOND QUARTER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(Dollars in millions)	2022	2021	Increase
Revenues	$ 501.9	$ 364.3	$ 137.6
Net (loss) income attributable to SXC	$ 18.0	$ (8.8)	$ 26.8
Adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾	$ 71.3	$ 68.0	$ 3.3


⁽¹⁾	See definition of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation elsewhere in this release.

Revenues in the second quarter of 2022 increased $137.6 million as compared to the same prior year period, primarily reflecting the pass-through of higher coal prices and favorable export coke pricing.

Net income attributable to SXC increased $26.8 million from the same prior year period. The prior year period included a $22.7 million , net of tax impact of debt extinguishment costs related to our debt refinancing during the second quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.3 million as compared to the same prior year period, primarily as a result of higher margins on export sales partially offset by lower domestic coke sales volumes described below.

SECOND QUARTER SEGMENT RESULTS

Domestic Coke
Domestic Coke consists of cokemaking facilities and heat recovery operations at our Jewell, Indiana Harbor, Haverhill, Granite City and Middletown plants.

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(Dollars in millions, except per ton amounts)	2022	2021	Increase (decrease)
Revenues	$ 472.5	$ 338.6	$ 133.9

⁽¹⁾	See definition of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation elsewhere in this release.
⁽²⁾	Reflects Domestic Coke Adjusted EBITDA divided by Domestic Coke sales volumes.

Revenues increased $133.9 million as compared to the same prior year period primarily reflecting the pass-through of higher coal prices and favorable export coke pricing.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.9 million as compared to the same prior year period largely due to higher margins on export sales partially offset by lower domestics coke sales volumes as a result of changes in the mix of production and timing of plant outages and repairs.

Logistics

Logistics consists of the handling and mixing services of coal and other aggregates at our Convent Marine Terminal ("CMT"), Lake Terminal, Kanawha River Terminals ("KRT") and Dismal River Terminal ("DRT").

	Three Months Ended June 30,
(Dollars in millions, except per ton amounts)	2022	2021	Increase (decrease)
Revenues	$ 19.8	$ 16.7	$ 3.1
Intersegment sales	$ 7.3	$ 7.4	$ (0.1)
Adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾	$ 12.5	$ 11.4	$ 1.1
Tons handled (thousands of tons)	5,809	5,104	705


⁽¹⁾	See definition of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation elsewhere in this release.

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased by $3.1 million and $1.1 million , respectively, as compared to the same prior year period driven by favorable pricing at CMT based on the API2 coal index price.

Brazil Coke

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

Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA were $9.6 million and $3.9 million , respectively, during the second quarter 2022, which was comparable to revenue and Adjusted EBITDA of $9.0 million and $4.0 million , respectively, in the second quarter 2021.

Corporate and Other
Corporate and other expenses, which include activity from our legacy coal mining business, was $9.4 million during second quarter 2022, $0.6 million higher than expense of $8.8 million during second quarter 2021 driven primarily by higher employee related expenses and higher professional services.

2022 REVISED OUTLOOK

Our 2022 revised guidance is based on higher export margins in our Domestic Coke plants and the API2 price adjustment benefit at CMT.

Our 2022 revised guidance is as follows:

Domestic Coke total production is expected to be approximately 4.1 million tons
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $270 million to $285 million
Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $80 million
Cash generated by operations is estimated to be between $200 million to $215 million
Cash taxes are projected to be $10 million to $12 million

DEFINITIONS

Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted for any impairments, restructuring costs, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt and transaction costs. 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 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. Additionally, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Adjusted EBITDA attributable to SXC represents Adjusted EBITDA less Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release and related conference call contain "forward-looking statements" (as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Forward-looking statements often may be identified by the use of such words as "believe," "expect," "plan," "project," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "may," "will," "should," or the negative of these terms, or similar expressions. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but instead represent only our beliefs regarding future events, many of which are inherently uncertain and involve significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties (many of which are beyond the control of SunCoke) that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from the anticipated results and financial condition indicated in such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described in Item 1A ("Risk Factors") of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the most recently completed fiscal year, as well as those described from time to time in our other reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, SunCoke has included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission cautionary language identifying important factors (but not necessarily all the important factors) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by SunCoke. For information concerning these factors and other important information regarding the matters discussed in this presentation, see SunCoke's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, copies of which are available free of charge on SunCoke's website at www.suncoke.com . All forward-looking statements included in this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements. Unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this presentation also could have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, but are based upon the current knowledge, beliefs and expectations of SunCoke management, and upon assumptions by SunCoke concerning future conditions, any or all of which ultimately may prove to be inaccurate. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the earnings release. SunCoke does not intend, and expressly disclaims any obligation, to update or alter its forward-looking statements (or associated cautionary language), whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, after the date of the earnings release except as required by applicable law.

In addition, throughout this press release, we will use non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in the Appendix to this presentation.

Western Australian METS Companies Awarded AU$1.25 Million in Funding

The Minerals Research Institute of Western Australia (MRIWA) said on Wednesday (October 30) that it is awarding five companies with research funding through its Mining Equipment, Technology and Services (METS) Innovation Program.

The funding totals AU$1.25 million, with Aquirian (ASX:AQN), Total Marine Technology, Big Roller Overland Conveyor Company, Electric Power Conversions Australia and CMG Operations receiving AU$250,000 each.

The WA government said it prioritizes “projects that will directly accelerate the development of companies, products and new markets benefiting the Western Australian economy” for the METS Innovation Program.

Aquirian, the only publicly listed company receiving the grant, will allocate the funding for developing automation for its existing Collar Keeper system. This would allow the driller to stay inside the cab, reducing personnel risk in drilling.
