SUNOCO LOGISTICS REPORTS RECORD EARNINGS FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER 2012
PHILADELPHIA, February 20, 2013 – Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. (NYSE: SXL) (the “Partnership”) today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2012 increased $40 million to $219 million compared to the fourth quarter 2011. Net income attributable to partners for the fourth quarter 2012 was $139 million ($1.10 per limited partner unit diluted), compared with $76 million ($0.60 per limited partner unit diluted) for the fourth quarter 2011. Additional highlights include:
| • | Increased distributable cash flow for 2012 to a record level of $604 million |
| • | Ended the quarter with a Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.0x |
| • | Record full year Adjusted EBITDA of $810 million, an increase of 41 percent compared to the prior year |
| • | 31st consecutive quarterly distribution increase; a 30 percent increase compared to the fourth quarter 2011 |
| • | Successfully completed $700 million in debt financing in January to support the 2013 organic growth program |
“2012 was a record year for our Partnership,” said Michael J. Hennigan, president and chief executive officer. “Our earnings reached new highs and we successfully developed six major organic expansion projects that will position us well for 2013 and beyond.”
Speaking on the record earnings in 2012, Hennigan said, “Our crude oil businesses continue to perform well as demand for services to transport domestic production is at an all-time high level. Successful integration of our 2011 acquisitions, combined with our ongoing organic capital program, delivered increasing fee-based cash flows which grew approximately 20 percent versus 2011.”
In regard to organic expansion, Hennigan said, “We completed six successful open seasons during 2012 in addition to our open season for Mariner West which occurred in 2011. These projects, which are primarily crude oil and natural gas liquid driven, will provide additional takeaway capacity out of key domestic production areas and will generate long-term ratable earnings for the Partnership. We are forecasting a 2013 organic capital program of approximately $700 million which would more than double our record 2012 organic growth of nearly $325 million.”

| (1) | The Partnership’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA has been revised beginning in the fourth quarter 2012. Prior period results have been recast to conform to the current presentation. For a detailed definition of the components included within Adjusted EBITDA, see the Non-GAAP Financial Measures table for a reconciliation to the applicable generally accepted accounting principle (“GAAP”) metric. |
General Partner Acquisition
During the fourth quarter of 2012, Sunoco, Inc. (“Sunoco”) was acquired by Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. (“Energy Transfer”). Prior to this transaction, Sunoco (through its wholly-owned subsidiary Sunoco Partners LLC), served as the Partnership’s general partner and owned a two-percent general partner interest, all of the incentive distribution rights and a 32.4 percent limited partner interest in the Partnership. In connection with the acquisition, Sunoco’s interests in the general partner and limited partnership were contributed to Energy Transfer, resulting in a change in control of the Partnership’s general partner. The Partnership has elected to apply “push-down” accounting as a result of this change which required the Partnership’s assets and liabilities to be adjusted to fair value on the closing date of the transaction, October 5, 2012. Operating results for the fourth quarter 2012 have been adjusted accordingly to reflect the new basis of accounting.
Crude Oil Pipelines
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2012 increased $14 million compared to the prior year period due primarily to higher pipeline tariffs which were the result of organic projects placed into service during 2012 and an improved mix of higher tariff movements driven by strong demand for West Texas crude oil. These improvements were partially offset by lower pipeline operating gains, higher maintenance and integrity management costs and higher selling, general and administrative expenses compared to the prior year period.
Crude Oil Acquisition and Marketing
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2012 increased $13 million compared to the prior year period due primarily to expanded crude oil margins which were the result of an expansion in our crude oil trucking fleet, market related opportunities in West Texas and contributions from the assets acquired from Texon L.P. in the third quarter of 2011.
Terminal Facilities
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2012 increased $16 million compared to the prior year period. During the fourth quarter 2011, the Partnership recognized an $11 million charge for certain regulatory obligations which were expected to be incurred if Sunoco’s Philadelphia refinery were shut down. Excluding this amount, Adjusted EBITDA for the Terminal Facilities increased $5 million compared to the prior year period due primarily to increased operating results from the Partnership’s refined products acquisition and marketing activities and contributions from organic projects to expand services at the Partnership’s Eagle Point and Nederland terminals. Partially offsetting these improvements were volume reductions at the Partnership’s refined products terminals, increased repair costs resulting from Hurricane Sandy and increased selling, general and administrative expenses.
2
Refined Products Pipelines
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2012 decreased $3 million compared to the prior year period due primarily to a shift to shorter pipeline movements at lower average tariffs. Further contributing to the decrease in results were higher selling, general and administrative expenses.
Financing Update
Net interest expense decreased $12 million for the fourth quarter 2012 compared to the prior year period due to the repayment of $250 million of Senior Notes in February 2012, the repayment of the $100 million promissory note to Sunoco in the fourth quarter of 2011 and higher capitalized interest associated with the Partnership’s expansion capital program. Further contributing to the overall decrease in interest expense was $6 million related to the non-cash amortization of a premium recorded on the Partnership’s long-term debt to increase the balance to fair value in connection with Energy Transfer’s acquisition of the Partnership’s general partner. At December 31, 2012, the Partnership’s total debt balance was $1.59 billion, excluding $143 million of unamortized fair value adjustments.

| (1) | Includes July 2011 acquisition of the Eagle Point tank farm from Sunoco for $100 million, consisting of: Class A (deferred distribution) units with a fair value of $98 million and $2 million in cash. This related party transaction was recorded at Sunoco’s carrying value of $22 million under generally accepted accounting principles. |
The Partnership’s expansion capital spending for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 included projects to invest in the Partnership’s crude oil infrastructure by increasing its pipeline capabilities through previously announced organic growth projects in West Texas and expanding its trucking fleet, expand upon refined products acquisition and marketing services, upgrade the service capabilities at the Eagle Point and Nederland terminals and continued investment in the previously announced Mariner West, Mariner East and Allegheny Access projects. The Partnership expects to invest approximately $700 million in expansion capital during 2013, excluding major acquisitions. Maintenance capital spending is estimated to be approximately $65 million in 2013.

| (1) | In the first quarter 2012, the Partnership recognized a non-cash impairment charge related to a cancelled software project for the crude oil acquisition and marketing business and a refined products pipeline project in Texas. |
| (2) | In the fourth quarter 2011, the Partnership recognized a $42 million charge for certain crude oil terminal assets expected to be negatively impacted if Sunoco’s Philadelphia refinery was permanently idled. This charge included $11 million for certain regulatory obligations. In the second quarter 2012, the Partnership recognized a $10 million gain on the reversal of certain regulatory obligations. Such expenses were no longer expected to be incurred as the Philadelphia refinery will continue to operate in connection with Sunoco’s joint venture with The Carlyle Group. The gain was included in the Partnership’s Adjusted EBITDA which is consistent with prior period presentation when the obligation was recognized. |
| (3) | Management of the Partnership believes Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable cash flow information enhances an investor’s understanding of a business’ ability to generate cash for payment of distributions and other purposes. Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable cash flow do not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flows from operating activities as determined under United States GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. Historical amounts presented have been recast to conform to current period presentation. |
