Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
General	1. General Description of Business SunCoke Energy, Inc. (“SunCoke Energy,” “SunCoke,” “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 60 years of coke production experience. Coke is produced by heating metallurgical coal in a refractory oven, which releases certain volatile components from the coal, thus transforming the coal into coke. Our coke is primarily used as a principal raw material in the blast furnace steelmaking process as well as in the foundry production of casted iron, and the majority of our sales are derived from blast furnace coke sales made under long-term, take-or-pay agreements. We also sell coke produced utilizing capacity in excess of that reserved for our long-term, take-or-pay agreements to customers in both the export and North American domestic coke markets seeking high-quality product for their blast furnaces. We have designed, developed and built, and we currently own and operate, five cokemaking facilities in the United States (“U.S.”) with collective nameplate capacity to produce approximately 4.2 million tons of blast furnace coke per year. Additionally, we designed and currently operate one cokemaking facility in Brazil under licensing and operating agreements on behalf of ArcelorMittal Brasil S.A. (“ArcelorMittal Brazil”), which has approximately 1.7 million tons of annual cokemaking capacity. Our cokemaking ovens utilize efficient, modern heat recovery technology designed to combust the coal’s volatile components liberated during the cokemaking process and use the resulting heat to create steam or electricity for sale. We also own and operate a logistics business that provides export and domestic material handling and/or mixing services to steel, coke (including some of our domestic cokemaking facilities), electric utility, coal producing and other manufacturing based customers. Our logistics terminals, which are strategically located to reach Gulf Coast, East Coast, Great Lakes and international ports, have the collective capacity to mix and/or transload more than 40 million tons of coal and other aggregates annually and has storage capacity of approximately 3 million tons. 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, 2024 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, 2023.

Income Taxes	4. Income Taxes At the end of each interim period, we make our best estimate of the annual effective tax rate and the impact of discrete items, if any, and adjust the rate as necessary. Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Income before income tax expense $ 28.2 $ 24.5 Income tax expense 7.1 6.8 Effective tax rate 25.2 % 27.8 % Income taxes recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023 included immaterial discrete items. The Company's effective tax rate was 25.2 percent and 27.8 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The difference between the Company's effective tax rates and federal statutory rate of 21.0 percent during both periods presented reflect the impact of state taxes as well as compensation deduction limitations under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The three months ended March 31, 2024 also reflects the impact of a valuation allowance established for a portion of foreign tax credits projected for the current period as a result of tax legislation enacted in Brazil during the third quarter of 2023. The three months ended March 31, 2023 reflects the impact of foreign taxes as a result of regulations impacting foreign tax credit utilization published by the U.S. Treasury in 2022.

Additionally, the Company has certain letters of credit totaling $22.2 million, which do not reduce the Revolving Facility's available balance. Covenants Under the terms of the Revolving Facility, the Company is subject to a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio of 4.50:1.00 and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 2.50:1.00. The Company's debt agreements contain 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. 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 could be declared immediately due and payable. The Company has a cross default provision that applies to our indebtedness having a principal amount in excess of $35.0 million.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	7. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities Legal Matters The Company is a party to certain pending and threatened claims, including matters related to commercial disputes, employment claims, personal injury claims, common law tort claims, and 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 these claims would likely not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. SunCoke's threshold for disclosing material environmental legal proceedings involving a government authority where potential monetary sanctions are involved is $1 million. Black Lung Benefit Liabilities The Company has obligations related to coal workers’ pneumoconiosis, or black lung, to provide benefits to certain of its former coal miners 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, which was implemented in 2010 and amended previous legislation related to coal workers’ black lung obligations, provides for the automatic extension of awarded lifetime benefits to surviving spouses and changes the legal criteria used to assess and award claims. We adjust our liability each year based upon actuarial calculations of our expected future payments for these benefits. Our independent actuarial consultants calculate the present value of the estimated black lung liability annually in the fourth quarter, unless there are changes in facts and circumstances that could materially alter the amount of the liability, based on actuarial models utilizing our population of former coal miners, historical payout patterns of both the Company and the industry, expected claim filing patterns, expected claimant success rates, actuarial mortality rates, 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 by claimants and their advisors, the impact of which cannot be estimated. Refer to Note 12 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for further detail on the valuation of our black lung benefit liability .

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	8. Share-Based Compensation Equity Classified Awards During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted share-based compensation to eligible participants under the SunCoke Energy, Inc. Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”). All awards vest immediately upon a qualifying termination of employment, as defined by the Omnibus Plan, following a change in control. Restricted Stock Units Settled in Shares During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued 202,465 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain employees, to be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock. The weighted average grant date fair value was $10.96 per unit, and was based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. RSUs granted to employees vest and become issuable in three annual installments beginning one year from the date of grant. The service period for certain retiree eligible participants is accelerated. Performance Share Units Performance share units (“PSUs”) were granted to certain employees to be settled in shares of the Company's common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2024, for which the service period will end on December 31, 2026, and will vest and become issuable during the first quarter of 2027. The service period for certain retiree eligible participants is accelerated. The Company granted the following PSUs: Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Unit PSUs (1)(2) 162,510 $ 11.51 (1) Performance measures for the PSU awards are split 50/50 between the Company's three-year cumulative Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements with the exception of the corporate/other expenses adjustment) and the Company's three-year average pre-tax return on capital for its coke and logistics businesses and unallocated corporate expenses. (2) The number of PSUs ultimately awarded will be determined by the above performance measures 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 80 percent and 120 percent of the Company's final performance measure results. Each PSU award may vest between 25 percent and 200 percent of the original units granted. The fair value of the PSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2024 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, 2024, the Company issued 165,384 restricted stock units to certain employees to be settled in cash (“Cash RSUs”), which vest and become payable 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, 2024 was $10.96 per unit, based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The Cash RSUs liability is adjusted based on the closing price of our common stock at the end of each quarterly period and was $1.2 million at March 31, 2024 and $2.8 million at December 31, 2023. Cash Incentive Awards The Company also granted long-term cash compensation to eligible participants under the Omnibus Plan. All awards vest immediately upon a qualifying termination of employment, as defined by the Omnibus Plan, following a change in control. The cash incentive award liability is included in accrued liabilities and other deferred credits and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company issued awards with an aggregate grant date fair value of approximately $2.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, for which the service period will end on December 31, 2026 and will vest and become payable during the first quarter of 2027. The service period for certain retiree eligible participants is accelerated. The performance measures for these awards are split 50/50 between the Company's three-year cumulative Adjusted EBITDA and the Company's three-year average pre-tax return on capital for its coke and logistics businesses and unallocated corporate expenses. The cash incentive award liability at March 31, 2024 was adjusted based on the Company's three-year cumulative Adjusted EBITDA 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 was $5.7 million at March 31, 2024 and $8.1 million at December 31, 2023.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings per Share	9. Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) has been computed by dividing net income attributable to SunCoke Energy, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Except where the result would be anti-dilutive, diluted EPS 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: Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 (Shares in millions) Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding-basic 85.0 84.5 Add: Effect of dilutive share-based compensation awards 0.3 0.4 Weighted-average number of shares-diluted 85.3 84.9 The following table shows equity awards that are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as the shares would have been anti-dilutive: Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 (Shares in millions) Stock options 0.6 1.4 Total 0.6 1.4

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement	3 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurement	10. 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 to sell 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 Cash and Cash Equivalents Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company's cash and cash equivalents were measured at fair value at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. These inputs are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy. Certain Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s total debt was estimated to be $450.9 million and $450.2 million, respectively, compared to a carrying am ount of $500.0 million at both periods. The fair value was estimated by management based upon estimates of debt pricing provided by financial institutions, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue from Contracts with Customers	11. Revenue from Contracts with Customers Cokemaking Our blast furnace coke sales are largely made pursuant to long-term, take-or-pay coke sales agreements primarily with Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Holding Corporation and Cleveland-Cliffs Steel LLC, both subsidiaries of Cleveland Cliffs Inc. and collectively referred to as “Cliffs Steel”, United States Steel Corporation (“U.S. Steel”), and Algoma Steel Inc. The take-or-pay provisions in our agreements require our customers to purchase coke volumes as specified in the agreements or pay the contract price for any tonnage they do not purchase. The take-or-pay provisions of our agreements also require us to deliver minimum annual tonnage. As of March 31, 2024, our coke sales agreements have approximately 21.1 million tons of unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations, which are expected to be delivered over a weighted average remaining contract term of approximately ten years . While the revenues in our Domestic Coke segment are primarily tied to blast furnace coke sales made under long-term, take-or-pay agreements, we also produce and sell foundry coke out of our Jewell cokemaking facility. Foundry coke sales are generally made under annual agreements with our customers for an agreed upon price and do not contain take-or-pay volume commitments. Non-contracted blast coke sales are produced utilizing capacity in excess of our long-term, take-or-pay agreements and foundry coke. These non-contracted blast coke sales are generally sold on a spot basis at the current market price into the global export and North American coke markets, and do not contain the same provisions as our long-term, take-or-pay agreements. Revenues on all coke sales are recognized when performance obligations to our customers are satisfied in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for the coke. Logistics In our logistics business, handling and/or mixing services are provided to steel, coke (including some of our domestic cokemaking facilities), electric utility, coal producing and other manufacturing based customers. Materials are transported in numerous ways, including rail, truck, barge or ship. We do not take possession of materials handled, but rather act as intermediaries between our customers and end users, deriving our revenues from services provided on a per ton basis. The handling and mixing services consist primarily of two performance obligations, unloading and loading of materials. Revenues are recognized when the customer receives the benefits of the services provided, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we will receive in exchange for those services. Estimated take-or-pay revenue of approximately $28.2 million from all of our multi-year logistics contracts is expected to be recognized over t he next three years fo r unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2024.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Business Segment Information	12. Business Segment Information The Company reports its business through three reportable segments: Domestic Coke, Brazil Coke and 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 recover waste heat, which is converted to steam or electricity. The Brazil Coke segment includes the licensing and operating fees payable to us under long-term contracts with ArcelorMittal Brazil, under which we operate a cokemaking facility located in Vitória, Brazil through January 2028. Logistics operations are comprised of Convent Marine Terminal (“CMT”), Kanawha River Terminal (“KRT”), and Lake Terminal, which provides services to our Indiana Harbor cokemaking facility. Handling and mixing results are presented in the 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 is not a reporting segment, but which also includes activity from our legacy coal mining business. Segment assets are those assets utilized within a specific segment. The following table includes Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments, as defined below, which is a measure of segment profit or loss reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance: Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Sales and other operating revenue: Domestic Coke $ 459.5 $ 458.8 Brazil Coke 8.3 7.9 Logistics 20.6 21.1 Logistics intersegment sales 5.9 6.2 Elimination of intersegment sales (5.9) (6.2) Total sales and other operating revenues $ 488.4 $ 487.8 Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments: Domestic Coke $ 61.4 $ 60.4 Brazil Coke 2.4 2.4 Logistics 13.0 13.5 Total Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments $ 76.8 $ 76.3 Depreciation and amortization expense: Domestic Coke $ 29.9 $ 31.8 Brazil Coke 0.1 0.1 Logistics 3.2 3.3 Total reportable segments $ 33.2 $ 35.2 Corporate and Other 0.1 0.1 Total depreciation and amortization expense $ 33.3 $ 35.3 Capital expenditures: Domestic Coke $ 14.5 $ 20.9 Brazil Coke — 0.1 Logistics 0.6 1.5 Total reportable segments $ 15.1 $ 22.5 Corporate and Other 0.4 0.1 Total capital expenditures $ 15.5 $ 22.6 The following table sets forth the Company's segment assets: March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 (Dollars in millions) Segment assets: Domestic Coke $ 1,408.3 $ 1,405.5 Brazil Coke 11.7 11.9 Logistics 159.0 158.4 Total reportable segments $ 1,579.0 $ 1,575.8 Corporate and Other 74.3 84.6 Total assets $ 1,653.3 $ 1,660.4 The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for any impairments, restructuring costs, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, transaction costs, and/or corporate/other expenses (“Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments”). Management believes Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments is an important measure in assessing operating performance. Additionally, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Reportable Segments to Net Income Below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments to net income, which is its most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP: Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Net income $ 21.1 $ 17.7 Add: Depreciation and amortization expense 33.3 35.3 Interest expense, net 6.3 7.2 Income tax expense 7.1 6.8 Transaction costs (1) 0.1 0.1 Corporate and Other 8.9 9.2 Adjusted EBITDA reportable segments $ 76.8 $ 76.3 (1) Costs incurred as part of the granulated pig iron project with U.S. Steel.
