SUNOCO REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER 2007 RESULTS
PHILADELPHIA, February 6, 2008 – Sunoco, Inc. (NYSE: SUN) today reported a net loss of $9 million ($(.08) per share diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2007 versus net income of $123 million ($1.00 per share diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding special items, Sunoco had income for the 2007 fourth quarter of $23 million ($0.20 per share diluted).
For the full-year 2007, Sunoco reported net income of $891 million ($7.43 per share diluted) versus $979 million ($7.59 per share diluted) for the full-year 2006. Excluding special items, income for 2007 was $833 million ($6.94 per share diluted). There were no special items in the 2006 full-year period.
“Despite significant market volatility, 2007 was another very good year for Sunoco, with earnings reflecting, on average, strong refining margins and a positive contribution from each of our non-refining businesses,” said John G. Drosdick, Sunoco’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “During the year, we also successfully executed our capital program in Refining and Supply that has provided meaningful capacity, conversion and reliability improvements within the spending budget we outlined at the beginning of the year. We also continued to grow our Coke business during 2007 as we commenced operations at a joint-venture coke plant in Vitória, Brazil and began construction on our second coke plant in Haverhill, Ohio which remains on schedule for completion in the second half of 2008. Finally, we continued to return cash to our shareholders, spending $300 million to repurchase approximately four million shares and increasing our dividend for the fifth consecutive year.”
Commenting on the fourth quarter results, Drosdick said, “Fourth quarter financial performance was negatively impacted by the sharp increase in crude oil prices which occurred throughout the period. This resulted in lower refining, retail and chemicals margins as well as the phase-out of certain

alternative fuel tax credits recognized by our Coke business. However, we did achieve strong operating performance in our refining system where we set a quarterly record for total net production available for sale of 962 thousand barrels per day. Reflecting some of the benefit from the major capital projects completed early in 2007, we also set a quarterly record for jet fuel production at our Toledo refinery and, in the Northeast, produced a record yield of higher-value light products and less lower-valued residual fuel.”
Commenting on the outlook for the first quarter of 2008, Drosdick said, “The market for refined products has remained weak early in 2008, reflecting continued high costs for crude oil and transportation. Operationally, we have planned maintenance work in both our Northeast and MidContinent systems which is expected to reduce refinery production by approximately 7 million barrels during February and March. As industry maintenance activity accelerates and the switchover to summer-grade gasoline approaches, we expect market conditions to improve later in the quarter.
“Strategically, we enter 2008 with a strong balance sheet and the financial capacity to execute our capital program, pursue opportunistic growth and return cash to our shareholders. Our net debt to capital ratio (as defined in our revolving credit agreement) was 27 percent as of December 31, 2007 and we have approximately $650 million of share repurchase authorization available with which to continue our long-standing share reduction program. Although volatile, we believe that the market outlook for refining fundamentals remains constructive and that the improvements made to our refining assets last year will benefit us in 2008. In addition, we expect our non-refining businesses to provide a steady base of earnings and cash flow while we continue to evaluate portfolio options to maximize their long-term value to our shareholders.”
DETAILS OF FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
REFINING AND SUPPLY
Refining and Supply earned $43 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 versus $126 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The decrease in earnings was due to the unfavorable impact on refining margins of higher crude oil feedstock costs as well as higher refinery expenses primarily attributable to the increased costs of purchased fuel and utilities. Partially offsetting the decline were higher production volumes as crude unit utilization in the fourth quarter of 2007 averaged 97 percent.
RETAIL MARKETING
Retail Marketing earned $1 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 versus a loss of $11 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase in earnings was primarily due to higher average retail gasoline margins and lower expenses. Versus the fourth quarter of 2006, monthly gasoline and diesel throughput per company-owned or leased outlet increased approximately two percent and convenience store merchandise sales were up approximately six percent. After-tax gains from our Retail Portfolio Management program totaled $4 million and $2 million in the 2007 and 2006 fourth quarter periods, respectively.

CHEMICALS
The Chemicals segment had a loss of $2 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 versus income of $16 million in the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily due to higher propylene feedstock costs which resulted in lower realized polypropylene and phenol margins.
LOGISTICS
Earnings for the Logistics segment were $12 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 versus $11 million in the fourth quarter of 2006.
COKE
The Coke business had a loss of $2 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 versus income of $17 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The decrease in earnings was primarily due to lower tax benefits largely related to a $14 million adjustment in the fourth quarter of 2007 to reflect the reduced recognition of alternative fuel tax credits related to cokemaking operations and the absence of a $3 million investment tax credit adjustment related to the Haverhill facility. Partially offsetting this decline was income from the 1.7 million tons-per-year cokemaking facility in Vitória, Brazil, which commenced start-up of operations in the first quarter of 2007.
During the fourth quarter, the Company made a $39 million investment to purchase an additional equity interest in the Vitória facility. The Company continues to estimate that earnings for the Coke business in 2008 will be between $80 and 85 million after tax resulting from the full-year impact of earnings from Vitória, combined with a contract pricing change at the Jewell coke facility and a partial-year contribution from the second Haverhill plant currently under construction.
CORPORATE AND OTHER
Corporate administrative expenses were $23 million after tax in the current quarter versus $20 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. Expenses in both periods are higher than normal due to accelerated recognition of share-based incentive compensation expense under SFAS No. 123R for grants made in the respective fourth quarters to retirement-eligible employees.
Net financing expenses were $6 million after tax in the fourth quarter of 2007 versus $16 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The decrease was due to higher interest income, lower expenses attributable to the preferential return of third-party investors in Sunoco’s cokemaking operations and the absence of a $3 million after-tax loss related to the Company’s December 2006 purchase of the Jewell coke partnership minority interest.

SPECIAL ITEMS
During the fourth quarter of 2007, Sunoco recorded an $8 million after-tax provision to write off a previously idled phenol line at Chemicals’ Haverhill, OH plant which will not be re-started; recorded a $7 million after-tax loss related to the sale of Chemicals’ Neville Island, PA terminal facility, which included an accrual for enhanced pension benefits associated with employee terminations and for other required exit costs; and recorded a $17 million after-tax accrual related to the tentative settlement of certain MTBE litigation. With respect to the MTBE litigation, Sunoco is attempting to recover the amount it is required to pay in settlement from its insurance carriers.
TWELVE MONTH RESULTS
Sunoco earned $891 million, or $7.43 per share of common stock on a diluted basis, for the full-year 2007 versus $979 million, or $7.59 per share in the 2006 period. The decrease was primarily due to higher expenses, lower realized margins in Sunoco’s Refining and Supply and Retail Marketing businesses and lower income attributable to the Coke business. Partially offsetting these negative factors were a $58 million net after-tax benefit attributable to special items (see below), higher gains on asset divestments and a lower effective tax rate.
For the full-year 2007, special items included the $32 million of after-tax charges in the fourth quarter described above. In addition, during the first quarter of 2007, Sunoco recognized a $90 million after-tax gain related to the prior issuance of limited partnership units of Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. (NYSE: SXL) to the public. Sunoco currently has a 43 percent interest in Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P., which includes its two percent general partnership interest.
