Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. General

Description of Business

SunCoke Energy, Inc. (“SunCoke Energy,” “Company,” "we," "our" and "us") is an independent owner and operator of five cokemaking facilities in the United States ("U.S."), which consists of our Haverhill Coke Company LLC ("Haverhill"), Middletown Coke Company, LLC ("Middletown"), Gateway Energy and Coke Company, LLC ("Granite City"), Jewell Coke Company, L.P. ("Jewell") and Indiana Harbor Coke Company ("Indiana Harbor") cokemaking facilities. Internationally, we operate a cokemaking facility in Brazil.

Additionally, we own and operate a coal logistics business, which provides coal handling and/or mixing services to third-party customers as well as to our own cokemaking facilities. Our coal logistics business consists of Convent Marine Terminal ("CMT"), Kanawha River Terminals, LLC ("KRT"), SunCoke Lake Terminal, LLC ("Lake Terminal") and Dismal River Terminal, LLC ("DRT").

Our consolidated financial statements include SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership"), a publicly-traded partnership. At March 31, 2017 , we owned the general partner of the Partnership, which consists of a 2.0 percent ownership interest and incentive distribution rights, and owned a 53.9 percent limited partner interest in the Partnership. The remaining 44.1 percent interest in the Partnership was held by public unitholders. SunCoke is considered the primary beneficiary of the Partnership as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Partnership's economic performance.

Until April 2016, when the business was disposed of, we also controlled coal mining operations in Virginia and West Virginia.

Incorporated in Delaware in 2010 and headquartered in Lisle, Illinois, we became a publicly-traded company in 2011 and our stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “SXC.”

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim reporting. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In management’s opinion, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the entire year. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 .

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605),” and requires entities to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Subsequently, the FASB has issued various ASUs to provide further clarification around certain aspects of ASC 606. This standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early adoption is permitted on a limited basis. Our implementation team has gained an understanding of the standard’s revenue recognition model and is completing the analysis and documentation of our contract details for impacts under the new revenue recognition model. Based on the current status of our assessment, we expect the timing of our revenue recognition to generally remain the same under the new standard on an annual basis. Deferred revenue at Convent Marine Terminal may be recognized on a more accelerated basis during quarterly periods within the year based on facts and circumstances considered at each quarter under the new guidance. The Company expects to adopt this standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases with terms of more than 12 months. It is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The standard requires the use of a modified retrospective transition method. A multi-disciplined implementation team has gained an understanding of the accounting and disclosure provisions of the standard and is in the

Table of Contents

process of analyzing the impacts to our business, including the development of new accounting processes to account for our leases and support the required disclosures. While we are still evaluating the impact of adopting this standard, we expect that upon adoption the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, such as various plant equipment rentals and the lease of our corporate office space, will increase the reported assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company expects to adopt this standard on January 1, 2019.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

2. Inventories

The components of inventories were as follows:



	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016

	(Dollars in millions)
Coal	$	66.3	$	49.4
Coke	8.9		7.7
Materials, supplies and other	35.9		35.4
Total inventories	$	111.1	$	92.5

3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, is tested for impairment as of October 1 of each year, or when events occur or circumstances change that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of a reporting unit to below its carrying value. Goodwill allocated to our Domestic Coke and Coal Logistics segments was $3.4 million and $73.5 million , respectively, at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 .

The components of intangible assets were as follows:



		March 31, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Weighted - Average Remaining Amortization Years	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net

		(Dollars in millions)
Customer contracts	6	$	31.7	$	10.9	$	20.8	$	31.7	$	9.9	$	21.8
Customer relationships	14	28.7		4.3		24.4		28.7		3.8		24.9
Permits	25	139.0		8.3		130.7		139.0		7.1		131.9
Trade name	2	1.2		0.9		0.3		1.2		0.8		0.4
Total		$	200.6	$	24.4	$	176.2	$	200.6	$	21.6	$	179.0

The permits above represent the environmental and operational permits required to operate a coal export terminal in accordance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency and other regulatory bodies. Intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives in a manner that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefit of the asset is consumed. The permits’ useful lives were estimated to be 27 years at acquisition based on the expected useful life of the significant operating equipment at the facility. These permits have an average remaining renewal term of approximately 4.2 years. The permits were renewed regularly prior to our acquisition of CMT. We also have historical experience of renewing and extending similar arrangements at our other facilities and intend to continue to renew our permits as they come up for renewal for the foreseeable future.

Total amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was $2.8 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Table of Contents

4. Income Taxes

At the end of each interim period, we make our best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year and the impact of discrete items, if any, and adjust the rate as necessary.

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. However, the Final Regulations include a transition period for activities that were reasonably interpreted to be qualifying income and carried on by publicly traded partnerships prior to the Final Regulations. The Partnership previously received a will-level opinion from its counsel, Vinson & Elkins LLP, that the Partnership's cokemaking operations generated qualifying income prior to the Final Regulations. Therefore, the Partnership believes it had a reasonable basis to conclude its cokemaking operations were considered qualifying income before the issuance of the new regulations and as such expects to maintain its treatment as a partnership through the transition period. Cokemaking entities in the Partnership will become taxable as corporations on January 1, 2028, after the transition period ends.

As a result of the Final Regulations discussed above, the Partnership recorded deferred income tax expense of $148.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 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. As the Company consolidates the Partnership, this entire deferred tax expense was recognized during the first quarter of 2017. However, the Company had already recorded $84.4 million of the deferred 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. Therefore, the net impact to the Company’s deferred tax expense was $64.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017. This incremental tax impact is solely attributable to Partnership’s public unitholders. As such, an equal reduction to noncontrolling interest was recorded. As a result, the Final Regulations have no impact to net income attributable to the Company.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $66.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 driven primarily by the Final Regulations, discussed above. The Company recorded income tax expense of $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 , resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.8 percent , as compared to the 35.0 percent federal statutory rate, primarily due to the impact of earnings attributable to noncontrolling ownership interests in partnerships, partially offset by income tax expense of $0.8 million related to the reversal of the deferred tax asset for equity compensation previously recorded.

On January 17, 2012 , SunCoke Energy and Sunoco, Inc. entered into a tax sharing agreement that governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, the preparation and filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax proceedings and other matters regarding taxes. SunCoke Energy will continue to monitor the utilization of all tax attributes subject to the tax sharing agreement as applicable tax returns are filed or as tax examinations progress and will record additional adjustments when necessary, consistent with the terms of the tax sharing agreement.

Covenants

Under the terms of the Company's credit agreement, the Company is subject to a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 3.25 to 1.00 and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 2.75 to 1.00 . Under the terms of the Partnership's credit agreement, the Partnership is subject to a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 4.50 to 1.00 and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 2.50 to 1.00 . The Company and Partnership's credit agreement contains other covenants and events of default that are customary for similar agreements and may limit our ability to take various actions including our ability to pay a dividend or repurchase our stock.

Under the terms of the Promissory Note, Raven Energy LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, is subject to a maximum leverage ratio of 5.00 : 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending prior to August 12, 2018. For any fiscal quarter ending on or after August 12, 2018 the maximum leverage ratio is 4.50 : 1.00 . Additionally in order to make restricted payments, Raven Energy LLC is subject to a fixed charge ratio of greater than 1.00 : 1.00 .

If we fail to perform our obligations under these and other covenants, the lenders' credit commitment could be terminated and any outstanding borrowings, together with accrued interest, under the Revolving Facility, Partnership Revolver, Partnership Term Loan and Promissory Note could be declared immediately due and payable. The Partnership has a cross default provision that applies to our indebtedness having a principal amount in excess of $20 million .

As of March 31, 2017 , the Company and the Partnership were in compliance with all applicable debt covenants. We do not anticipate violation of these covenants nor do we anticipate that any of these covenants will restrict our operations or our ability to obtain additional financing.

These contributions amounted to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

8. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Legal Matters

SunCoke Energy is party to an omnibus agreement pursuant to which we will provide indemnification to the Partnership upon the occurrence of certain potential adverse events under certain coke sales agreements, indemnification of certain environmental costs and preferential rights for growth opportunities.

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) issued Notices of Violations (“NOVs”) for our Haverhill and Granite City cokemaking facilities which stemmed from alleged violations of our air emission operating permits for these facilities. We are working in a cooperative manner with the EPA, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to address the allegations, and have entered into a consent decree in federal district court with these parties. The consent decree includes a $2.2 million civil penalty payment, which was paid in December 2014, as well as capital projects underway to improve the reliability of the energy recovery systems and enhance environmental performance at the Haverhill and Granite City facilities. We anticipate spending between approximately $140 million and $145 million related to these projects, of which we have spent approximately $96 million to date. The remaining capital is expected to be spent through the first quarter of 2019 . A portion of the proceeds from the Partnership offering and subsequent dropdowns are expected to be used to fund $119 million of these environmental remediation projects. Pursuant to the omnibus agreement, any amounts that the Partnership spends on these projects in excess of the $119 million will be reimbursed by the Company.

SunCoke Energy has also received NOVs, Findings of Violations ("FOVs"), and information requests from the EPA related to our Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility , which allege violations of certain air operating permit conditions for this facility. The Clean Air Act (the "CAA") provides the EPA with the authority to issue, among other actions, an order to enforce a State Implementation Plan ("SIP") 30 days after an NOV. The CAA also authorizes EPA enforcement of other non-SIP requirements immediately after an FOV. Generally, an NOV applies to SIPs and requires the EPA to wait 30 days, while an FOV applies to all other provisions (such as federal regulations) of the CAA, and has no waiting period. The NOVs and/or FOVs were received in 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015 and 2016. After initial discussions with the EPA and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (“IDEM”) in 2010, resolution of the NOVs/FOVs was postponed by mutual agreement because of ongoing discussions regarding the NOVs at Haverhill and Granite City. In January 2012, the Company began working in a cooperative manner to address the allegations with the EPA, the IDEM and Cokenergy, Inc., an independent power producer that owns and operates an energy facility, including heat recovery equipment and a flue gas desulfurization system, that processes hot flue gas from our Indiana Harbor facility to produce steam and electricity and to reduce the sulfur and particulate content of such flue gas. The EPA, IDEM, SunCoke Energy and Cokenergy, Inc have met regularly since those discussions commenced, and will continue to meet regularly in 2017 to attempt to agree upon a settlement of the NOVs and FOVs. Capital projects are underway to address items that may be required in conjunction with a settlement of the NOVs/FOVs. Any such settlement likely will require payment of a penalty for alleged past violations as well as undertaking capital projects to achieve compliance, and possibly enhance reliability and environmental performance of our Indiana Harbor facility. The settlement of

Table of Contents

most NOVs and FOVs typically involves first agreeing on injunctive relief and then agreeing on any appropriate penalty in light of the violations and the scope and cost of any injunctive relief.

Over the past several years, EPA, IDEM, SunCoke Energy and Cokenergy, Inc. have focused on the nature and extent of any injunctive relief to settle the NOVs/FOVs. Despite the negotiations, the scope and cost of any such injunctive relief remains uncertain, including any part of such injunctive relief that would be performed by SunCoke Energy. Likewise, any discussions about the amount of any civil penalties that SunCoke Energy would be willing to pay in settlement of these claims is uncertain. As a result, SunCoke Energy cannot yet assess the scope or cost of any injunctive relief or potential monetary penalty. Moreover, the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to many of the claims and that a failure to reach a settlement with the EPA regarding the NOVs and FOVs may lead to litigation in which rulings in the Company's favor on some or all of the allegations are possible. For these reasons, the Company is unable to reliably estimate a range of probable or reasonably possible loss.

The Company is a party to certain other pending and threatened claims, including matters related to commercial and tax disputes, product liability, employment claims, personal injury claims, premises-liability claims, allegations of exposures to toxic substances and general environmental claims. Although the ultimate outcome of these claims cannot be ascertained at this time, it is reasonably possible that some portion of these claims could be resolved unfavorably to the Company. Management of the Company believes that any liability which may arise from claims would not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Black Lung Benefit Liabilities

The Company has obligations related to coal workers’ pneumoconiosis, or black lung, benefits to certain of our former coal mining employees (and their dependents). Such benefits are provided for under Title IV of the Federal Coal Mine and Safety Act of 1969 and subsequent amendments, as well as for black lung benefits provided in the states of Virginia, Kentucky and West Virginia pursuant to workers’ compensation legislation. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”), which was implemented in 2010, amended previous legislation related to coal workers’ black lung obligations. PPACA provides for the automatic extension of awarded lifetime benefits to surviving spouses and changes the legal criteria used to assess and award claims. We act as a self-insurer for both state and federal black lung benefits and adjust our liability each year based upon actuarial calculations of our expected future payments for these benefits.

Our independent actuarial consultants annually calculate the present value of the estimated black lung liability based on actuarial models utilizing our population of former coal mining employees, historical payout patterns of both the Company and the industry, actuarial mortality rates, disability incidence, medical costs, death benefits, dependents, discount rates and the current federally mandated payout rates. The estimated liability may be impacted by future changes in the statutory mechanisms, modifications by court decisions and changes in filing patterns driven by perceptions of success by claimants and their advisors, the impact of which cannot be estimated. The estimated liability was $50.6 million and $50.2 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, of which $4.8 million was included in accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in both periods.

9. Share-Based Compensation

Equity Classified Awards

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company granted share-based compensation to eligible participants under the SunCoke Energy, Inc. Long-Term Performance Enhancement Plan (“SunCoke LTPEP”). All awards vest immediately upon a change in control and a qualifying termination of employment as defined by the SunCoke LTPEP.

Stock Options

The Company granted the following stock options during the three months ended March 31, 2017 with an exercise price equal to the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant.



		Weighted Average Per Share
	No. of Shares	Exercise Price		Grant Date Fair Value
Traditional stock options	84,332	$	9.85	$	5.17
Performance based options	80,595	$	9.85	$	4.55

The stock options vest in three equal annual installments beginning one year from the date of grant. In order to become exercisable, the performance based options also require the closing price of the Company's common stock to reach or exceed $14.78 , or 150 percent of $9.85 , for any 15 trading days during the three year period beginning on the grant date. The stock options expire ten years from the date of grant.

Table of Contents

The Company calculates the value of each employee stock option, estimated on the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with a Monte Carlo simulation for the performance based options. The weighted-average fair value of employee stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was based on using the following weighted-average assumptions:



	Three Months Ended March 31, 2017
Risk-free interest rate	2	%
Expected term	6 years
Volatility	54	%
Dividend yield	—	%

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the date of grant for periods which approximate the expected life of the option. The expected term of the employee options represent the average contractual term adjusted by the average vesting period of each option tranche. We used a blended expected volatility assumption that incorporates 90 percent historical volatility and 10 percent implied volatility. The historical volatility is calculated based on our historical daily stock returns over the options' expected term. The implied volatility is calculated based on our near-the-money call options traded over the 90 -day period preceding the valuation date. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts at the time of grant.

Restricted Stock Units Settled in Shares

The Company issued 22,628 stock-settled restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain employees for shares of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The weighted average grant date fair value was $9.85 per share. The RSUs vest in three annual installments beginning one year from the date of grant. All awards vest immediately upon a change in control as defined by the SunCoke LTPEP.

Performance Share Units

The Company granted the following performance share units ("PSUs") for shares of the Company's common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2017 that vest on December 31, 2019 :


(1)	The PSU awards are split 50 /50 between the Company's three year cumulative Adjusted EBITDA performance measure and the Company's three year average pre-tax return on capital performance measure for its coke and logistics businesses and unallocated corporate expenses.


(2)	The number of PSU's ultimately awarded will be determined by the above performance versus targets and the Company's three year total shareholder return ("TSR") as compared to the TSR of the companies making up the Nasdaq Iron & Steel Index ("TSR Modifier"). The TSR Modifier can impact the payout between 50 percent and 150 percent of the Company's final performance measure results.

The award may vest between zero and 250 percent of the original units granted. The fair value of the PSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 is based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant as well as a Monte Carlo simulation for the valuation of the TSR Modifier.

Liability Classified Awards

Restricted Stock Units Settled in Cash

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company issued 93,364 restricted stock units to be settled in cash ("Cash RSUs"), which vest in three annual installments beginning one year from the grant date. The weighted average grant date fair value of the Cash RSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $9.85 and was based on the closing price of our common stock on the day of grant.

The Cash RSU liability at March 31, 2017 was adjusted based on the closing price of our common stock on March 31, 2017 of $8.96 per share. The liability at March 31, 2017 was not material.

Cash Incentive Award

The Company also granted share-based compensation to eligible participants under the SunCoke Energy, Inc. Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan ("SunCoke LTCIP"), which became effective January 1, 2016 . The SunCoke LTCIP is designed to provide for performance-based, cash-settled awards. All awards vest immediately upon a change in control and a qualifying termination of employment as defined by the SunCoke LTCIP.

The Company issued a grant date fair value award of $0.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 that vest on December 31, 2019 . The awards are split 50 /50 between the Company's three cumulative Adjusted EBITDA performance and the Company's three year average per-tax return on capital for its coke and logistics businesses and unallocated corporate expense. The ultimate award value will be determined by the performance versus targets and the Company's three year TSR Modifier performance, but will be capped at 250 percent of the target award.

The cash incentive award liability at March 31, 2017 was adjusted based on the Company's three year cumulative Adjusted EBITDA performance and adjusted average pre-tax return on capital for the Company's coke and logistics businesses and unallocated corporate expenses. The cash incentive award liability at March 31, 2017 was not material.

10. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) has been computed by dividing net income (loss) available to SunCoke Energy, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Except where the result would be anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share has been computed to give effect to share-based compensation awards using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the weighted-average number of common shares used to compute basic EPS to those used to compute diluted EPS:

12. Fair Value Measurement

The Company measures certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value disclosures are reflected in a three-level hierarchy, maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:


•	Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market.


•	Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.


•	Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's cash equivalents, which amounted to $4.8 million and $4.4 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, were measured at fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. These inputs are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy.

CMT Contingent Consideration

In connection with the CMT acquisition, the Partnership entered into a contingent consideration arrangement that requires the Partnership to make future payments to The Cline Group based on future volume over a specified threshold, price and contract renewals. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated based on a probability-weighted analysis using significant inputs that are not observable in the market, or Level 3 inputs. Key assumptions included probability adjusted levels of coal handling services provided by CMT, anticipated price per ton on future sales and probability of contract renewal, including length of future contracts, volume commitment, and anticipated price per ton. The fair value of the contingent consideration at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $4.2 million and was included in other deferred charges and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Certain Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the fair value of the Company’s total debt was estimated to be $860.8 million and $854.4 million , respectively, compared to a carrying amount of $857.1 million and $858.0 million , respectively. The fair value was estimated by management based upon estimates of debt pricing provided by financial institutions, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

13. Business Segment Information

The Company reports its business through three segments: Domestic Coke, Brazil Coke and Coal Logistics. The Domestic Coke segment includes the Jewell, Indiana Harbor, Haverhill, Granite City and Middletown cokemaking facilities. Each of these facilities produces coke, and all facilities except Jewell and Indiana Harbor recover waste heat, which is converted to steam or electricity through a similar production process. Steam is provided to customers pursuant to steam supply and purchase agreements. Electricity is sold into the regional power market or to AK Steel pursuant to energy sales agreements. Coke sales at each of the Company's five domestic cokemaking facilities are made pursuant to long-term, take-or-pay agreements with ArcelorMittal, AK Steel, and U.S. Steel. Each of the coke sales agreements contains pass-through provisions for costs incurred in the cokemaking process, including coal procurement costs (subject to meeting contractual coal-to-coke yields), operating and maintenance expense, costs related to the transportation of coke to the customers, taxes (other than income taxes) and costs associated with changes in regulation, in addition to containing a fixed fee.

The Brazil Coke segment operates a cokemaking facility located in Vitória, Brazil for a project company. The Brazil Coke segment earns income from the Brazilian facility through licensing and operating fees payable to us under long-term contracts with the local project company that will run through at least 2023 .

Table of Contents

Coal Logistics operations are comprised of CMT, located in Louisiana, Kanawha River Terminals, LLC, located in West Virginia, SunCoke Lake Terminal, LLC, located in Indiana, and Dismal River Terminal, LLC, located in Virginia adjacent to our Jewell cokemaking facility. Our coal logistics operations have a collective capacity to mix and transload approximately 40 million tons of coal annually and provides coal handling and/or mixing services to its customers, which include the Partnership's cokemaking facilities and other SunCoke cokemaking facilities. Coal handling and mixing results are presented in the Coal Logistics segment.

Corporate expenses that can be identified with a segment have been included in determining segment results. The remainder is included in Corporate and Other, which also includes activity from our legacy coal mining business, which was historically presented as a reportable segment. Prior year periods have been recasted to reflect current presentation.

Segment assets, net of tax are those assets utilized within a specific segment and exclude deferred taxes and current tax receivables.

The following table includes Adjusted EBITDA, which is the measure of segment profit or loss and liquidity reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance:

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on segment Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted for impairments, coal rationalization costs, changes to our contingent consideration liability related to our acquisition of CMT and the expiration of certain acquired contractual obligations. 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 and liquidity of the Company's net assets and its ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and make distributions. 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 and liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be considered a substitute for net income, operating cash flow or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Set forth below is additional discussion of the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool.

Limitations. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Adjusted EBITDA also has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include that Adjusted EBITDA:


•	does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;


•	does not reflect items such as depreciation and amortization;


•	does not reflect changes in, or cash requirement for, working capital needs;


•	does not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest on or principal payments of our debt;


•	does not reflect certain other non-cash income and expenses;


•	excludes income taxes that may represent a reduction in available cash; and


•	includes net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income and net cash provided by operating activities, which are its most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

(1)	In response to the SEC’s May 2016 update of its guidance on the appropriate use of non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA no longer includes Coal Logistics deferred revenue until it is recognized as GAAP revenue. As such, Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2016 has been recast from previously reported results to exclude Coal Logistics' deferred revenue.

(2)

Prior to the divestiture of our coal mining business, the Company incurred coal rationalization (income) costs including employee severance, contract termination costs and other costs to idle mines incurred during the execution of our coal rationalization plan. The first quarter of 2016 includes a gain of $1.5 million on the divestiture of certain coal mining permits and related reclamation obligations.


(3)	The Partnership amended its contingent consideration terms with The Cline Group during the first quarter of 2016. These amendments resulted in a gain of $3.7 million recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016, which was excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.


(4)	Reflects noncontrolling interest in Indiana Harbor and the portion of the Partnership owned by public unitholders.

14. Supplemental Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

Certain 100 percent owned subsidiaries of the Company serve as guarantors of the obligations under the Credit Agreement and $44.6 million of Notes (“Guarantor Subsidiaries”). These guarantees are full and unconditional (subject, in the case of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, to customary release provisions as described below) and joint and several. For purposes of the following footnote, SunCoke Energy, Inc. is referred to as “Issuer.” The indenture dated July 26, 2011 among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., governs subsidiaries designated as “Guarantor Subsidiaries.” All other consolidated subsidiaries of the Company are collectively referred to as “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.”

The ability of the Partnership and Indiana Harbor to pay dividends and make loans to the Company is restricted under the partnership agreements of the Partnership and Indiana Harbor, respectively. The credit agreement governing the Partnership’s credit facility and the indenture governing the Partnership Notes contain customary provisions which would potentially restrict the Partnership’s ability to make distributions or loans to the Company under certain circumstances. For the year ended December 31, 2016, less than 25 percent of net assets were restricted. Additionally certain coal mining entities are designated as unrestricted subsidiaries. As such, all the subsidiaries described above are presented as "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries." There have been no changes to the "Guarantor Subsidiaries" and "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries" during 2017.

The guarantee of a Guarantor Subsidiary will terminate upon:


•	a sale or other disposition of the Guarantor Subsidiary or of all or substantially all of its assets;


•	a sale of the majority of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor Subsidiary to a third-party, after which the Guarantor Subsidiary is no longer a "Restricted Subsidiary" in accordance with the indenture governing the Notes;


•	the liquidation or dissolution of a Guarantor Subsidiary so long as no "Default" or "Event of Default", as defined under the indenture governing the Notes, has occurred as a result thereof;


•	the designation of a Guarantor Subsidiary as an "unrestricted subsidiary" in accordance with the indenture governing the Notes;


•	the requirements for defeasance or discharge of the indentures governing the Notes having been satisfied; and


•	the release, other than the discharge through payments by a Guarantor Subsidiary, from its guarantee under the Credit Agreement or other indebtedness that resulted in the obligation of the Guarantor Subsidiary under the indenture governing the Notes.

The following supplemental condensed combining and consolidating financial information reflects the Issuer’s separate accounts, the combined accounts of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the combined accounts of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, the combining and consolidating adjustments and eliminations and the Issuer’s consolidated accounts for the dates and periods indicated. For purposes of the following condensed combining and consolidating information, the Issuer’s investments in its subsidiaries and the Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries’ investments in its subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements of expected future developments, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This discussion contains forward-looking statements about our business, operations and industry that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements regarding our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Our future results and financial condition may differ materially from those we currently anticipate as a result of the factors we describe under “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.”

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is based on financial data derived from the financial statements prepared in accordance with the United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and certain other financial data that is prepared using non-GAAP measures. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP components, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this Item, and Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements.

Our MD&A is provided in addition to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes to assist readers in understanding our results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.

Overview

SunCoke Energy, Inc. (“SunCoke Energy,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us”) is the largest independent producer of high-quality coke in the Americas, as measured by tons of coke produced each year, and has more than 50 years of coke production experience. Coke is a principal raw material in the blast furnace steelmaking process. Coke is generally produced by heating metallurgical coal in a refractory oven, which releases certain volatile components from the coal, thus transforming the coal into coke. We have designed, developed, built, own and operate five cokemaking facilities in the United States (“U.S.”), which consist of our Haverhill Coke Company LLC ("Haverhill"), Middletown Coke Company, LLC ("Middletown"), Gateway Energy and Coke Company, LLC ("Granite City"), Jewell Coke Company, L.P. ("Jewell") and Indiana Harbor Coke Company ("Indiana Harbor") cokemaking facilities. These five cokemaking facilities have collective nameplate capacity to produce approximately 4.2 million tons of coke per year. Additionally, we have designed and operate one cokemaking facility in Brazil under licensing and operating agreements on behalf of our customers.

All of our U.S. coke sales are made pursuant to long-term, take-or-pay agreements. These coke sales agreements have an average remaining term of approximately seven years and contain pass-through provisions for costs we incur in the cokemaking process, including coal costs (subject to meeting contractual coal-to-coke yields), operating and maintenance expenses, costs related to the transportation of coke to our customers, taxes (other than income taxes) and costs associated with changes in regulation. The coke sales agreement and energy sales agreement with AK Steel Holding Corporation ("AK Steel") at our Haverhill facility are subject to early termination by AK Steel under limited circumstances and provided that AK Steel has given at least two years prior notice of its intention to terminate the agreements and certain other conditions are met. No other coke sales contract has an early termination clause.

Our core business model is predicated on providing steelmakers an alternative to investing capital in their own captive coke production facilities. We direct our marketing efforts principally towards steelmaking customers that require coke for use in their blast furnaces. While our steelmaking customers are operating in an environment that is challenged by global overcapacity, our customers have continued to see increases in steel pricing and positive signals on trade and infrastructure during the first quarter of 2017. Despite the improved market trends over the last year, AK Steel and United States Steel Corporation ("U.S. Steel") have kept portions of their Ashland Kentucky Works facility and Granite City Works facility idled as they await further signs of market stability. While market challenges remain, our customers continue to comply with the terms of their long-term, take-or-pay contracts with us.

Our Granite City facility and the first phase of our Haverhill facility, or Haverhill I have steam generation facilities, which use hot flue gas from the cokemaking process to produce steam for sale to customers pursuant to steam supply and purchase agreements. Granite City sells steam to U.S. Steel and Haverhill I provides steam, at minimal cost, to Altivia Petrochemicals, LLC ("Altivia"). Our Middletown facility and the second phase of our Haverhill facility, or Haverhill II, have cogeneration plants that use the hot flue gas created by the cokemaking process to generate electricity, which either is sold into the regional power market or to AK Steel pursuant to energy sales agreements.

(1)	Cokemaking capacity represents stated capacity for production of blast furnace coke. The Middletown coke sales agreement provides for coke sales on a “run of oven” basis, which includes both blast furnace coke and small coke. Middletown capacity on a “run of oven” basis is 578 thousand tons per year.


(2)	We hold a 49 percent investment in a cokemaking joint venture with VISA Steel Limited in India ("VISA SunCoke"), which was fully impaired in 2015, and consequently, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2015, we no longer included our share of VISA SunCoke in our financial results. Cokemaking capacity represents 100 percent of VISA SunCoke.

The Partnership also owns and operates a coal logistics business, which provides coal handling and/or mixing services to third-party customers as well as to our own cokemaking facilities. The Partnership's coal logistics business consists of Convent Marine Terminal ("CMT"), Kanawha River Terminals, LLC ("KRT") and SunCoke Lake Terminal, LLC ("Lake Terminal"). The Partnership's coal logistics business has collective capacity to mix and/or transload approximately 40 million tons of coal annually and store approximately 3 million tons. CMT is one of the largest export terminals on the U.S. gulf coast and has direct rail access and the capability to transload approximately 15 million tons of coal annually through its operations in Convent, Louisiana. The facility is supported by long-term, take-or-pay contracts with volume commitments covering 10 million tons of its current capacity. KRT is a leading metallurgical and thermal coal mixing and handling terminal service provider with collective capacity to mix and transload approximately 25 million tons of coal annually through operations in West Virginia. The Partnership's terminal located in East Chicago, Indiana, Lake Terminal, provides coal handling and mixing services to our Indiana Harbor cokemaking operations. The Company also owns Dismal River Terminal LLC ("DRT"), which is located in Virginia adjacent to our Jewell cokemaking facility and was formed to accommodate Jewell in its direct procurement of third-party coal, beginning in 2016. Coal is transported from the mine site in numerous ways, including rail, truck, barge or ship. The Partnership's coal terminals act as intermediaries between coal producers and coal end users by providing transloading, storage and mixing services. The Partnership does not take possession of coal in its coal logistics business, but instead earns revenue by providing coal handling and/or mixing services to its customers on a fee per ton basis. Mixing and/or handling services are provided to steel, coke (including some of our domestic cokemaking facilities), electric utility and coal producing customers.

Table of Contents

The financial performance of the Partnership's coal logistics business is substantially dependent upon a limited number of customers. The Partnership's CMT customers are impacted by seaborne export market dynamics. Fluctuations in the benchmark price for coal delivery into northwest Europe, as referenced in the Argus/McCloskey's Coal Price Index report ("API2 index price"), contribute to the Partnership's customers' decisions to place tons into the export market and thus impact transloading volumes through the Partnership's terminal facility. The Partnership's KRT terminals are primarily impacted by the domestic coal markets in which its customers operate and generally benefit from extreme weather conditions.

The Partnership's coal logistics customers have continued their recovery into the first quarter of 2017, resulting in increased volumes and improved financial performance for the Coal Logistics segment. Coal prices, both API2 and domestic thermal, have been relatively stable during the first quarter of 2017 and remain significantly higher than the lows in early 2016. While metallurgical coal prices have retreated during the first quarter of 2017, they remain much higher as compared to the same prior year period. Recently, metallurgical coal prices have spiked in response to logistics disruptions in Australia as a result of adverse weather events.

Our consolidated financial statements include SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership"), a publicly-traded master limited partnership. As of March 31, 2017 , we owned the general partner of the Partnership, which consists of a 2.0 percent ownership interest and incentive distribution rights ("IDR"), and owned a 53.9 percent limited partner interest in the Partnership. The remaining 44.1 percent interest in the Partnership was held by public unitholders.

Recent Developments


•	Termination of the Proposed Simplification Transaction

In April 2017, the Company announced the termination of discussions with the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of the Partnership regarding our proposal to acquire all of the Partnership’s common units not already owned by the Company ("Simplification Transaction"), announced on October 31, 2016. The Conflicts Committee and its independent advisors reviewed the proposal made by the Company and had several discussions with the Company over the last few months regarding the potential transaction. At this time, the parties have determined that they will not be able to reach an agreement and have therefore terminated discussions regarding the proposed Simplification Transaction.

The Company and the Partnership recorded $1.5 million and $0.3 million of transaction costs related to the proposed Simplification Transaction in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, respectively.

Items Impacting Comparability

•

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. However, the Final Regulations include a transition period for activities that were reasonably interpreted to be qualifying income and carried on by publicly traded partnerships prior to the Final Regulations. The Partnership previously received a will-level opinion from its counsel, Vinson

Table of Contents

& Elkins LLP, that the Partnership's cokemaking operations generated qualifying income prior to the Final Regulations. Therefore, the Partnership believes it had a reasonable basis to conclude its cokemaking operations were considered qualifying income before the issuance of the new regulations and as such expects to maintain its treatment as a partnership through the transition period. Cokemaking entities in the Partnership will become taxable as corporations on January 1, 2028, after the transition period ends.

As a result of the Final Regulations, the Partnership recorded deferred income tax expense of $148.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 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. As the Company consolidates the Partnership, this entire deferred tax expense was recognized during the first quarter of 2017. However, the Company had already recorded $84.4 million of the deferred 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. Therefore, the net impact to the Company’s deferred tax expense was $64.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017. This incremental tax impact is solely attributable to Partnership’s public unitholders. As such, an equal reduction to noncontrolling interest was recorded. As a result, the Final Regulations have no impact to net income attributable to the Company.

•

Jewell Coke's Reimbursable Coal Costs. The reimbursable coal component of our Jewell cokemaking facility is fixed annually for each calendar year based on the weighted-average contract price of third-party coal purchases at our Haverhill I cokemaking facility ("HHI Benchmark"). Historically, Jewell's actual coal costs have been higher than the HHI Benchmark, resulting in an under-recovery of coal costs at Jewell. During the first quarter of 2017, we have narrowed the difference between the HHI Benchmark and Jewell's actual coal costs, lessening the under-recovery and improving Adjusted EBITDA by $2.4 million as compared to the same prior year period.

•

Pass Through Coal Cost Under-Recovery. During the fourth quarter of 2016, as part of our ordinary course coal sourcing activities, Haverhill, Middletown and AK Steel each entered into arrangements with a coal supplier for 2017 fulfillment. As a result of unfulfilled coal supply commitments by this coal supplier, substitute coal suppliers are currently meeting the shortfall, resulting in a higher price. Presently, we are aggressively pursuing the coal supplier and sharing a portion of the increased coal cost differential with AK Steel, resulting in a negative impact to revenue and Adjusted EBITDA of $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017. We expect this impact to lower revenue and Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $6 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.


•	Debt Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the Partnership repurchased $52.8 million of notes, which resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $20.4 million .

•

Coal Mining Business Divestiture and Impairment. In April 2016, the Company successfully disposed of its coal mining business to Revelation Energy, LLC ("Revelation"), who assumed substantially all of our 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 total losses associated with this divestiture of $14.7 million, including a $10.7 million asset impairment recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Cost savings due to the absence of the coal mining business improved Adjusted EBITDA results by $2.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same prior year period.

•

Contingent Consideration. In connection with the CMT acquisition, the Partnership entered into a contingent consideration arrangement that requires the Partnership to make future payments to The Cline Group based on future volumes over a specified threshold, price, and contract renewals. During the first quarter of 2016, the Partnership amended the contingent consideration terms with The Cline Group, which resulted in a $3.7 million gain recognized as a reduction to costs of products sold and operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

(1)	See year-over-year changes described in "Items Impacting Comparability."

Sales and Other Operating Revenue . The decrease in sales and other operating revenue reflects lower sales volumes in our Domestic Coke segment, driven by oven rebuilds at our Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility, offset by higher sales volumes in our Coal Logistics segment.

Costs of Products Sold and Operating Expenses. The decrease in cost of products sold and operating expenses was primarily due to lower coal costs associated with lower sales volumes in our Domestic Coke segment, discussed above, partially offset by the absence of the $3.7 million gain from the contingent consideration adjustment recorded in the first quarter of 2016, previously discussed in "Items Impacting Comparability."

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily driven by the absence of costs incurred to resolve certain legal matters in the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily the result of revisions in 2016 to the remaining useful lives of our Indiana Harbor cokemaking ovens due to higher than expected oven degradation, which resulted in additional depreciation of $4.8 million, or $0.07 per common share, during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Interest Expense, Net. The decrease in interest expense, net was primarily due to lower debt balances, mostly offset by lower capitalized interest.

Income Taxes . Income tax expense increased significantly in the current year period as a result of the impact of the IRS Final Regulations previously discussed in "Recent Developments."

Noncontrolling Interest. Net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interest represents the common public unitholders’ interest in SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. as well as a 14.8 percent third-party interest in our Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility. Net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interest decreased significantly due to the impact of the IRS Final Regulations previously described in "Recent Developments." The remaining decrease is primarily due to the common public unitholders' interest in the Partnership's gain on extinguishment of debt during the first quarter of 2016.

Results of Reportable Business Segments

We report our business results through three segments:

•

Domestic Coke consists of our Jewell Coke Company, L.P. ("Jewell"), Indiana Harbor Coke Company ("Indiana Harbor"), Haverhill Coke Company LLC ("Haverhill"), Gateway Energy and Coke Company, LLC ("Granite City") and Middletown Coke Company, LLC ("Middletown") cokemaking and heat recovery operations located in Vansant, Virginia; East Chicago, Indiana; Franklin Furnace, Ohio; Granite City, Illinois; and Middletown, Ohio, respectively.


•	Brazil Coke consists of our operations in Vitória, Brazil, where we operate a cokemaking facility, ArcelorMittal Brazil, for a Brazilian subsidiary of ArcelorMittal S.A. ("ArcelorMittal");


•	Coal Logistics consists of CMT, KRT, Lake Terminal, and DRT coal handling and/or mixing service operations in Convent, Louisiana; Ceredo and Belle, West Virginia; East Chicago, Indiana; and Vansant, Virginia, respectively. Lake Terminal and DRT are located adjacent to our Indiana Harbor and Jewell cokemaking facilities, respectively

The operations of each of our segments are described at the beginning of the MD&A.

Corporate expenses that can be identified with a segment have been included in determining segment results. The remainder is included in Corporate and Other, including activity from our legacy coal mining business, which was historically presented as a reportable segment. Prior year periods have been recasted to reflect current presentation.

Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance and liquidity, which is used as the primary basis for the chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of each of our reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for the reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Brazil

Sales and other operating revenue increased $3.1 million , or 40.3 percent , to $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $7.7 million for the same period of 2016 . The increase in revenues was primarily due to an incremental $1.3 million in licensing fees related to the addition of certain patents to our existing intellectual property licensing agreement as well as favorable foreign currency adjustments compared to the same prior year period, which increased revenues $1.0 million. The remaining increase of $0.8 million was driven by higher volumes as well as production bonuses received from our customer in the current year for meeting certain volume targets not met in the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.1 million , or 91.3 percent , to $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $2.3 million for the same period of 2016 . The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was the result of the incremental licensing fees and higher volumes and production bonuses discussed above.

Corporate and Other

Corporate and other revenues, inclusive of intersegment sales, were $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and represented revenues from our legacy coal mining business, which was disposed of in April 2016.

Corporate and other Adjusted EBITDA results, which include activity from our legacy coal mining business, were $11.6 million in first quarter 2017, an improvement of $7.1 million versus first quarter 2016. The improvement includes a $2.8 million year-over-year benefit associated with the absence of our coal mining business, which was disposed of in April 2016. The remaining improvement was driven by the absence of costs incurred to resolve certain legal matters in the prior year period, as well as favorable year-over-year impact of mark-to-market adjustments in deferred compensation caused by changes in the Company's share price and the Partnership's unit price. These improvements were partially offset by $1.5 million of costs in connection with the proposed Simplification Transaction in the current year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity needs are to finance the replacement of partially or fully depreciated assets and other capital expenditures, service our debt, fund investments, fund working capital and maintain cash reserves. Our sources of liquidity include cash generated from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and, from time to time, debt and equity offerings. We believe our current resources are sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for our current business for the foreseeable future. We may be required to access the capital markets for funding related to the maturities of our long-term borrowings beginning in 2019. In February 2017, the Company extended the maturity of its Revolving Facility to December 2018 and reduced its capacity by $25.0 million to $125.0 million . As of March 31, 2017 , together with the Partnership, we had $157.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $172.3 million of borrowing availability under our credit facilities.

Distributions

On April 17, 2017 , the Partnership's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.5940 per unit. This distribution will be paid on June 1, 2017 to unitholders of record on May 15, 2017 . The distribution is expected to include $12.4 million to the Partnership's public unitholders.

Partnership Public Unit Purchase Program

On April 17, 2017, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a program for the Company to purchase outstanding Partnership public units at any time and from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, block transactions, or otherwise for a total aggregate cost to the Company not to exceed $50.0 million.

Cash Flow Summary

The following table sets forth a summary of the net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 :



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016

	(Dollars in millions)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	29.5		$	29.4
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	7.9			(5.3		)
Net cash used in financing activities	(14.2		)	(45.7		)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	23.2		$	(21.6	)

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 , net cash provided by operating activities was $29.5 million , which was consistent with prior year period. The Company had higher inventory purchases of $32.8 million driven by higher coal prices and inventory levels, offset by higher coal purchase payables during the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same prior year period.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the net cash used in investing activities of $5.3 million for the corresponding period of 2016 . The net cash provided by investing activities during the first quarter of 2017 was driven by the $20.5 million return of the Brazilian investment partially offset by current year period capital expenditures. The net cash used by investing activities in 2016 was driven by the prior year period capital expenditures partially offset by an amendment to an agreement with The Cline Group, which unrestricted $6.0 million of previously restricted cash and relieved the Partnership of any obligation to repay these amounts to The Cline Group.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $14.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . In the first quarter of 2017, the Partnership repaid $0.9 million of long-term debt and paid distributions of $12.4 million to its public unitholders.

Net cash used in financing activities was $45.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 . In the first quarter of 2016, the Partnership repaid $32.9 million of long-term debt, primarily Partnership Notes, and paid distributions of $12.3 million to its public unitholders.

Capital Requirements and Expenditures

Our operations are capital intensive, requiring significant investment to upgrade or enhance existing operations and to meet environmental and operational regulations. The level of future capital expenditures will depend on various factors, including market conditions and customer requirements, and may differ from current or anticipated levels. Material changes in capital expenditure levels may impact financial results, including but not limited to the amount of depreciation, interest expense and repair and maintenance expense.

Our capital requirements have consisted, and are expected to consist, primarily of:

•

Ongoing capital expenditures required to maintain equipment reliability, the integrity and safety of our coke ovens and steam generators and to comply with environmental regulations. Ongoing capital expenditures are made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets in order to maintain the existing operating capacity of the assets and/or to extend their useful lives and also include new equipment that improves the efficiency, reliability or effectiveness of existing assets. Ongoing capital expenditures do not include normal repairs and maintenance expenses, which are expensed as incurred;


•	Environmental remediation project expenditures required to implement design changes to ensure that our existing facilities operate in accordance with existing environmental permits; and


•	Expansion capital expenditures to acquire and/or construct complementary assets to grow our business and to expand existing facilities as well as capital expenditures made to enable the renewal of a coke sales agreement and on which we expect to earn a reasonable return.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes ongoing, environmental remediation projects and expansion capital expenditures:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017		2016

	(Dollars in millions)
Ongoing capital	$	9.5	$	9.0
Environmental remediation projects ⁽¹⁾	3.1		1.4
Expansion capital:
CMT ⁽²⁾	0.1		2.0
Other capital expansion	—		1.4
Total capital expenditures	$	12.7	$	13.8


(1)	Includes $0.1 million and $0.6 million of capitalized interest in connection with the environmental remediation projects during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.


(2)	Represents capital expenditures for the ship loader expansion project funded with cash withheld in conjunction with the acquisition of CMT. Additionally, this includes capitalized interest of $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

In 2017, we expect our capital expenditures to be approximately $80 million, of which is comprised of the following:


•	Total ongoing capital expenditures of approximately $52 million, of which approximately $17 million will be spent at the Partnership and approximately $20 million will be spent on the 2017 Indiana Harbor oven rebuild project;


•	Total capital expenditures on environmental remediation projects of approximately $25 million, all of which will be spent at the Partnership; and


•	Total expansion capital of approximately $3 million in our Coal Logistics segment.

We expect that capital expenditures will remain at this level in 2018, including capital expenditures of approximately $25 million at the Partnership related to the remediation project.

We anticipate spending a total of between approximately $140 million and $145 million in environmental remediation projects to comply with the expected terms of the consent decree at our Haverhill and Granite City cokemaking operations. We have spent approximately $96 million related to these projects since 2012. The remaining capital is expected to be spent through the first quarter of 2019. A portion of the proceeds from the Partnership's initial public offering and subsequent dropdowns are expected to be used to fund $119 million of these environmental remediation projects. Pursuant to the omnibus agreement, any amounts that the Partnership spends on these projects in excess of the $119 million will be reimbursed by the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have letters of credit, operating leases and outstanding surety bonds to secure reclamation and other performance commitments. There have been no significant changes to these arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2017 . Please refer to SunCoke Energy, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K dated February 16, 2017 for further disclosure of these arrangements. Other than these arrangements, the Company has not entered into any transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements that would result in material off-balance sheet liabilities.

This measure is not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP and may be different from, or inconsistent with, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. See Note 13 in our Consolidated financial statements for both the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations from GAAP to the non-GAAP measurement for the three months ended March 31, 2017 , and 2016 , respectively.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
