Adjusted EBITDA increased 74 percent to $65.5 million in second quarter 2012, driven by the contribution of our new Middletown, Ohio facility and continued strong performance of our U.S. cokemaking business --Adjusted EBITDA per ton in our U.S. cokemaking business (inclusive of Jewell Coke and Other Domestic Coke segments) increased to $57 per ton in second quarter 2012 compared with $39 per ton in second quarter 2011 --Coal Mining Adjusted EBITDA declined $2.2 million from second quarter 2011 to $9.3 million in the second quarter 2012 due to weak results in our hi-volatile and thermal coal operations SunCoke Energy, Inc. http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/SXC?link=MW_story_quote - - today reported second quarter 2012 net income attributable to shareholders of $22.7 million, up slightly from $22.5 million in second quarter 2011. "Our U.S. cokemaking business delivered another strong quarter," said Fritz Henderson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SunCoke Energy, Inc. "The successful startup of our Middletown, Ohio facility, sustained improvement at Indiana Harbor and the continued strong performance of our other U.S. cokemaking facilities were key drivers of the nearly $28 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA we achieved in the second quarter. While our coal business remains challenging, we made progress improving our mining productivity and lowering costs versus first quarter 2012. We believe we will successfully navigate the difficult current coal environment and expect to manage our coal business to be cash neutral in 2012." Henderson continued, "For full year 2012, we continue to expect to deliver between $250 million and $280 million in Adjusted EBITDA. We've updated our 2012 outlook for capital expenditures and free cash flow. We now expect 2012 capital expenditures to be about $85 million and free cash flow to be in excess of $100 million."

(1) See definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations elsewhere in this release. In second quarter 2012, total revenues rose 22 percent to $460.9 million versus second quarter 2011, primarily driven by sales at our Middletown facility and the pass-through of higher coal costs in our Jewell Coke segment. Our Middletown facility contributed $72.0 million to the increase in revenues in the second quarter. The increases in operating income and Adjusted EBITDA, which grew 99 percent and 74 percent, respectively, versus second quarter 2011 reflect the contribution of our Middletown facility, improvement at our Indiana Harbor facility and continued strong performance in our Other Domestic Coke and Jewell Coke segments. This was partly offset by our Coal Mining segment due to weak results in our hi-volatile and thermal coal operations. The slight increase in net income attributable to shareholders reflects strong operating performance offset by higher financing costs related to our standalone company capital structure as compared to second quarter 2011 when SunCoke was still owned by Sunoco, Inc. SEGMENT RESULTS Jewell Coke The Jewell Coke segment consists of our cokemaking operations in Vansant, Virginia. Substantially all of the metallurgical coal used at our Jewell cokemaking facility is supplied from our coal mining operations. Beginning in first quarter 2012, the intersegment coal costs charged to the Jewell Coke segment are reflective of the contract price Jewell Coke charges its customer. Prior year periods have been adjusted to reflect this change.

In addition, lower selling, general and administrative expenses contributed to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA. Other Domestic Coke Other Domestic Coke consists of cokemaking facilities and heat recovery operations at the Indiana Harbor, Haverhill, Granite City and Middletown plants. The Middletown cokemaking facility began operations in October 2011. On September 30, 2011, we increased our ownership interest in the partnership that owns the Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility from 66 percent to 85 percent by acquiring the interest held by one of the unaffiliated third-party partners.

(1) See definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Ton and reconciliations elsewhere in this release. (2) Excludes income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling investors in Indiana Harbor. -- Our Middletown facility contributed $72.0 million to the increase in segment revenues and $14.0 million to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA in second quarter 2012. Middletown's Adjusted EBITDA contribution is net of approximately $1.5 million in higher costs and lower than expected coal-to-coke yield performance. -- Excluding the Middletown facility, Adjusted EBITDA increased $9.3 million on improved operating results. Coal cost recovery increased by $5.8 million driven by significant coal-to-coke yield improvements at our Indiana Harbor and Granite City facilities. Operating cost recovery increased $5.3 million due to lower spending at our Granite City and Indiana Harbor facilities. -- Partly offsetting these improvements were $1.8 million of higher selling, general and administrative expenses primarily related to higher legal costs. International Coke International Coke consists of a cokemaking facility in Vitoria, Brazil, which we operate for a Brazilian affiliate of ArcelorMittal. International Coke earns operating and technology licensing fees based on production, and recognizes a dividend on its preferred stock investment, generally in the fourth quarter, assuming certain minimum production levels are achieved at the facility. -- Segment Adjusted EBITDA declined $0.1 million to $0.7 million primarily due to lower volumes and higher legal costs partly offset by higher operating cost recovery. Coal Mining Coal Mining consists of our metallurgical coal mining activities conducted in Virginia and West Virginia. A substantial portion of the metallurgical coal produced by our coal mining operations is sold to our Jewell Coke segment for conversion into metallurgical coke. Beginning in first quarter 2012, intersegment coal revenues for sales to the Jewell Coke segment are reflective of the contract price Jewell Coke charges its customer. Prior year periods have been adjusted to reflect this change.

(1) See definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Ton and reconciliations elsewhere in this release. (2) Includes production from Company and contract-operated mines. (3) Includes sales to affiliates. -- Coal Mining segment revenues (excluding sales to affiliates) benefited from higher sale prices for our mid-volatile coal and increased volumes from our mining venture with Revelation Energy, partly offset by lower volumes and prices of our hi-volatile and thermal coal sales. -- Adjusted EBITDA decreased in second quarter 2012 due to higher coal cash production costs and lower sales of hi-volatile and thermal coal, partly offset by higher sales of mid-volatile coal. Coal cash production costs per ton increased over the prior year due to a change in the mix of coal produced. Specifically, hi-volatile and thermal coals, which are generally mined at a lower cost per ton than mid-volatile coal, represented a smaller portion of sales and production in second quarter 2012 than in the same prior year period. Corporate and Other Corporate expenses decreased by $4.9 million to $5.6 million in second quarter 2012 reflecting a favorable comparison to second quarter 2011, which included $4.0 million of relocation costs. In addition, lower charges from Sunoco and higher segment allocations partly offset by increased stock-based compensation expense and headcount also contributed to the decline in corporate costs. Financing (Expense)/Income Net financing expense was $11.8 million for second quarter 2012 as compared with net financing income of $4.5 million in second quarter 2011. This change is primarily due to $12 million of interest expense associated with the issuance of debt in connection with becoming a standalone company and a net decrease of $4.0 million in interest income received from affiliates. COMBINED CASH FLOWS AND FINANCIAL POSITION Cash Flows Net cash provided by operating activities rose $70.3 million to $86.7 million in first half 2012, driven by the contribution to earnings of our Middletown operations and decreases in working capital and favorable comparisons to first half 2011, which included costs associated with the purchase of third-party coke to meet projected production shortfalls. Capital expenditures were $20.7 million for first half 2012, a decrease of $107.3 million as compared with first half 2011. In first half 2011, capital expenditures of $128.0 million included $103.9 million related to the construction of our Middletown facility. Capital expenditures and investments in 2012 are now expected to be about $85 million, instead of the $100 million previously indicated. This lower capital expenditure outlook has positive implications for expected free cash flow in 2012 (defined as cash provided by operations less cash used in investing activities less cash distributions to noncontrolling interests), which is now expected to be in excess of $100 million. 2012 OUTLOOK The following summarizes the Company's 2012 guidance: -- Earnings per share (assuming a 22 percent tax rate) is expected to be between $1.30 and $1.65 -- Full year 2012 Adjusted EBITDA is projected to be between $250 million and $280 million -- Capital expenditures and investments are anticipated to be approximately $85 million -- Domestic coke production is expected to be in excess of 4.3 million tons -- Coal production is projected to be approximately 1.6 million tons -- Free cash flow is expected to be in excess of $100 million -- The effective tax rate for the full year 2012 is expected to be between 20 percent and 24 percent, and the cash tax rate is expected to be between 10 percent and 15 percent DEFINITIONS -- Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization ("EBITDA") adjusted for sales discounts and the deduction of income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our Indiana Harbor cokemaking operations. 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 fuels 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 which is not included in EBITDA. Accordingly, in computing Adjusted EBITDA, we have added back these sales discounts. Our Adjusted EBITDA also reflects the deduction of income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our Indiana Harbor cokemaking operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income or operating income under United States generally accepted accounting principles (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 is indicative of the Company's ability to generate cash from operations. See the tables (unaudited) at the end of this release for reconciliations of net income to Adjusted EBITDA. -- Adjusted EBITDA per Ton represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by tons sold. -- Free Cash Flow equals cash from operations less cash used in investing activities less cash distributions to noncontrolling interests. Management believes Free Cash Flow information enhances an investor's understanding of a business' ability to generate cash. Free Cash Flow does not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flows from operating activities as determined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses.
