SUNOCO REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2008 RESULTS
PHILADELPHIA, November 5, 2008 – Sunoco, Inc. (NYSE: SUN) today reported net income of $549 million ($4.70 per share diluted) for the third quarter of 2008 versus $216 million ($1.81 per share diluted) for the third quarter of 2007. Excluding special items, Sunoco had income for the 2008 third quarter of $559 million ($4.78 per share diluted). There were no special items in the third quarter of 2007.
For the first nine months of 2008, Sunoco reported net income of $572 million ($4.88 per share diluted) versus $900 million ($7.46 per share diluted) in the first nine months of 2007. Excluding special items, income in the first nine months of 2008 was $561 million ($4.79 per share diluted) versus $810 million ($6.71 per share diluted) in the first nine months of 2007.
“After an extremely challenging market environment in the first half of 2008, very strong margins in our Refining and Supply and Retail Marketing businesses led to a record result in the third quarter,” said Lynn Elsenhans, Sunoco’s Chief Executive Officer and President. “Refining and Supply earned $424 million as falling crude oil prices and reduced industry production related to the Gulf Coast hurricane activity led to significantly improved margins. In addition, optimization actions during the quarter greatly enhanced our capture of available market opportunities. We reduced the amount of Nigerian-sourced crude oil run at our refineries by more than 200,000 barrels per day versus historical levels during a period when premiums for Nigerian grades remained high. At the same time, we continued to optimize our product yields to maximize distillate production early in the quarter when gasoline margins were weak and then increased gasoline production during September as market demand for gasoline increased.

“Demonstrating the diversity of our earnings base, Sunoco’s non-refining businesses earned $140 million during the third quarter, their highest quarterly contribution ever. Retail Marketing earned $72 million despite lower year-over-year sales volumes as falling wholesale gasoline prices through most of the quarter led to expanded retail margins. Chemicals also benefited from falling feedstock costs to earn $19 million despite some hurricane-related downtime at our Houston-area facilities in September. Some assets in our Logistics business were also impacted by the September hurricanes but otherwise continued strong performance from Sunoco Logistics Partners LP (NYSE: SXL) contributed to earnings of $20 million for this business. Finally, Coke earned a record $29 million, reflecting a partial contribution from our second cokemaking facility in Haverhill, Ohio which began operations during the quarter. With an increased contribution from these assets and the benefit of higher coal prices in the fourth quarter, we continue to expect the Coke business to earn approximately $110-$115 million for the full-year 2008.”
Commenting on the Company’s strategic outlook, Elsenhans said, “While falling wholesale gasoline prices kept retail margins strong in October, Gulf Coast refining supply is largely back on line following the hurricanes and the slowing economy will likely continue to suppress demand for refined products as we enter 2009. More than ever, this market environment requires our continued focus to maintain financial discipline. As of September 30, our net-debt-to-capital ratio was 30 percent as defined by the covenant in our revolving credit agreement. We had $327 million of cash on the balance sheet and $1.8 billion of available liquidity, including funds available to SXL. In addition, we have decided not to proceed with the previously announced capital improvement project to upgrade the Tulsa refinery, which will reduce planned spending by approximately $375 million. Sunoco continues to pursue the potential sale of the facility and re-evaluate our entire portfolio of assets to be responsive to changing global market conditions and achieve enhanced shareholder value. Further updates on each of these matters as well as additional detail on our 2009 capital program will be discussed at a meeting for securities analysts and investors to be held on December 15, 2008.”
DETAILS OF THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
REFINING AND SUPPLY
Refining and Supply earned $424 million in the third quarter of 2008 versus $171 million in the third quarter of 2007. The increase in earnings was primarily due to higher realized margins, partially offset by higher expenses and lower production volumes. The higher margins primarily resulted from tighter product markets following storms in the U.S. Gulf Coast region.
RETAIL MARKETING
Retail Marketing earned $72 million in the third quarter of 2008 versus $31 million in the third quarter of 2007. The increase in earnings was primarily due to higher average retail gasoline and distillate margins, partially offset by lower retail gasoline sales volumes and lower divestment gains. Results for the quarter included a $5 million after-tax charge related to asset impairment losses and associated

costs in conjunction with the Company’s Retail Portfolio Management (RPM) program. The Company anticipates that the future gains to be recognized from the divestment of sites under the RPM program will exceed the impairment losses and associated costs recognized during the quarter.
CHEMICALS
Chemicals earned $19 million in the third quarter of 2008 versus $13 million in the prior-year period. The increase in earnings was due primarily to higher margins, partially offset by lower sales volumes.
LOGISTICS
Earnings for the Logistics segment were $20 million in the third quarter of 2008 versus $14 million in the third quarter of 2007. The increase was due to continued improved results from SXL which benefited from increased pipeline fees and higher lease acquisition margins in its western pipeline system as well as higher earnings from the eastern pipeline system and terminalling operations.
COKE
The Coke business earned $29 million in the third quarter of 2008 versus $7 million in the third quarter of 2007. The increase in earnings was due primarily to increased price realizations from coal and coke production and higher coke sales volumes at Jewell.
CORPORATE AND OTHER
Corporate administrative expenses (income) were $(2) million after tax in the third quarter of 2008 versus $11 million after tax in the third quarter of 2007. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to an $11 million favorable income tax consolidation adjustment in the third quarter of 2008. This adjustment essentially reversed unfavorable adjustments recorded in the first half of the year.
Net financing expenses were $7 million after tax in the third quarter of 2008 versus $9 million after tax in the third quarter of 2007. The decrease was primarily due to higher capitalized interest and the absence of expense attributable to the preferential return of third-party investors in Sunoco’s Indiana Harbor cokemaking operations, partially offset by lower interest income.
SPECIAL ITEMS
During the third quarter of 2008, Sunoco elected not to proceed with a capital project at its Tulsa refinery and, as a result, recorded a $10 million after-tax provision to write-off the expenditures incurred to date on this project.
NINE MONTH RESULTS
Sunoco earned $572 million, or $4.88 per share of common stock on a diluted basis, for the first nine months of 2008 versus $900 million, or $7.46 per share, in the comparable 2007 period. The decrease

SUNOCO 3Q08 EARNINGS, PAGE 4
was primarily due to lower margins in Sunoco’s Refining and Supply business. Also contributing to the decline were the absence of a $90 million after-tax gain related to the prior issuance of SXL limited partnership units, higher expenses, lower production of refined products, lower gains on asset divestments, lower retail gasoline and distillate sales volumes, and the provision for asset write-downs associated with the canceled capital project at the Tulsa refinery. Partially offsetting these negative factors were higher average retail gasoline and distillate margins, higher income attributable to Sunoco’s Coke, Logistics and Chemicals businesses, lower net financing expenses and an $11 million after-tax gain on an insurance recovery and a $10 million after-tax gain pertaining to certain income tax matters that were recognized in the second quarter of 2008.
