NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tabular dollar amounts, except per unit data, are in millions)

(unaudited)

1.Organization and Principles of Consolidation

As used in this document, the terms “Partnership,” “we,” “us,” “our” or “SUN” should be understood to refer to Sunoco LP and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

We are a Delaware master limited partnership. We are managed by our general partner, Sunoco GP LLC (our “General Partner”), which is owned by Energy Transfer LP (“Energy Transfer”). As of September 30, 2024, Energy Transfer owned 100% of the limited liability company interests in our General Partner, 28,463,967 of our common units and all of our incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”).

The consolidated financial statements include Sunoco LP, a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of the Partnership’s management, such financial information reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for such interim periods in accordance with GAAP. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The operations of certain pipelines and terminals in which we own an undivided interest are proportionately consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or total equity.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Pursuant to Regulation S-X, certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The interim consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 16, 2024 and in Exhibit 99.1 to the Partnership's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 24, 2024.

Significant Accounting Policies

As of September 30, 2024, there have been no changes in the Partnership's significant accounting policies from those described in Exhibit 99.1 to the Partnership's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 24, 2024.

Defined Benefit Plans

We estimate pension and other postretirement benefit obligations and costs based on actuarial valuations. The annual measurement date for our pension and other postretirement benefit plans is December 31. The actuarial valuations require the use of certain assumptions including discount rates, expected long-term rates of return on plan assets and expected rates of compensation increase. Changes in these assumptions are primarily influenced by factors outside our control.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currencies of our foreign subsidiaries are the local currencies of the countries in which the subsidiaries are located. The assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries with local functional currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, and income and expense items are translated to U.S. dollars at weighted-average exchange rates in effect during the period. These translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheets. Upon the sale or liquidation of our investment in a foreign subsidiary, translation adjustments that have historically accumulated in AOCI related to that subsidiary are released from AOCI and reported as part of the gain or loss on sale. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

We own interests in certain joint ventures with Energy Transfer that are accounted for by the equity method. In general, we use the equity method of accounting for an investment for which we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, the investee’s operating and financial policies. An impairment of an investment in an unconsolidated affiliate is recognized when circumstances indicate that a decline in the investment value is other than temporary.

Table of Contents

Motor Fuel and Sales Taxes

Certain motor fuel and sales taxes are collected from customers and remitted to governmental agencies either directly by the Partnership or through suppliers. The Partnership’s accounting policy for wholesale direct sales to dealers, distributors and commercial customers is to exclude the collected motor fuel tax from sales and cost of sales.

For retail locations where the Partnership holds inventory, including commission agent locations, motor fuel sales and motor fuel cost of sales include motor fuel taxes. Such amounts were $33 million and $73 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $133 million and $209 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Merchandise sales and cost of merchandise sales are reported net of sales tax in our consolidated statements of operations.

3.Acquisitions, Divestitures and Other Transactions

Acquisitions

NuStar

On May 3, 2024, we completed the previously announced acquisition of NuStar Energy L.P. (“NuStar”). Under the terms of the agreement, NuStar common unitholders received 0.400 SUN common units for each NuStar common unit. In connection with the acquisition, we issued approximately 51.5 million common units, which had a fair value of approximately $2.85 billion, assumed debt totaling approximately $3.5 billion including approximately $56 million of lease related financing obligations and assumed preferred units with a fair value of approximately $800 million. NuStar has approximately 9,500 miles of pipeline and 63 terminal and storage facilities that store and distribute crude oil, refined products, renewable fuels, ammonia and specialty liquids.

The acquisition was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, that assets and liabilities assumed be recognized on the balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition, with any excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired recorded to goodwill. Management, with the assistance of a third party valuation specialist, determined the fair value of assets and liabilities as of the date of the acquisition. Determining the fair value involves the use of management's judgment as well as the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price among assets acquired and liabilities assumed:


	As of May 3, 2024
Total current assets	$	186
Property and equipment	6,958
Operating lease right-of-use assets, net	136
Goodwill (1)	16
Intangible assets, net (2)	195
Other non-current assets	127
Total assets	7,618

Total current liabilities	245
Long-term debt, less current maturities (3)	3,500
Operating lease non-current liabilities	136
Deferred tax liabilities	4
Other non-current liabilities	82
Total liabilities	3,967

Preferred units (3)	801

Total consideration	2,850
Cash acquired	27
Total cash consideration, net of cash acquired	$	2,823

(1)Goodwill primarily represents expected commercial and operational synergies and is subject to change based on final purchase price allocations. None of the goodwill recorded as a result of this transaction is deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill of $16 million relates to the Fuel Distribution segment.

(2)Intangible assets, net comprised $151 million of favorable contracts, with a remaining weighted average life of approximately 7 years, and $44 million of customer relationships, with a remaining weighted average life of approximately 15 years.

Table of Contents

(3)Subsequent to the closing of the NuStar acquisition, the Partnership redeemed all outstanding NuStar preferred units, totaling $784 million, redeemed NuStar's subordinated notes totaling $403 million and repaid and terminated the NuStar credit facility totaling $455 million.

Subsequent to the NuStar acquisition, the Partnership purchased a property previously leased by NuStar and cancelled the lease, resulting in an impairment of $50 million based on the value of comparable real property.

Pro Forma Results of Operations

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 are presented as if the NuStar acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2023.


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Revenues	$	5,751	$	6,730	$	17,946	$	18,607
Net income	23		295		682		544
Net income (loss) attributable to partners	(14)		241		550		445
Basic net income (loss) per Common Unit	$	(0.10)	$	1.78	$	3.74	$	3.28
Diluted net income (loss) per Common Unit	$	(0.10)	$	1.76	$	3.72	$	3.26

The pro forma consolidated results of operations include adjustments to:

•include the results of NuStar for all periods presented;

•include the incremental expenses associated with the fair value adjustments recorded as a result of applying the acquisition method of accounting;

•include incremental interest expense related to financing the transactions;

•adjust for one-time expenses; and

•adjust for relative changes in ownership resulting from the acquisition.

The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had the NuStar acquisition been made at the beginning of the periods presented or the future results of the combined operations.

NuStar's revenue and net income since the acquisition date to September 30, 2024 included in our consolidated statement of operations were $583 million and $56 million, respectively.

Expenses related to the NuStar Acquisition

As a result of the acquisition, we recognized $97 million of merger-related expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Zenith European Terminals

On March 13, 2024, we completed the previously announced acquisition of liquid fuels terminals in Amsterdam, Netherlands and Bantry Bay, Ireland from Zenith Energy for €170 million ($185 million), including working capital. The acquisition was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, that assets and liabilities assumed be recognized on the balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Management, with the assistance of a third party valuation specialist, determined the preliminary fair value of assets and liabilities as of the date of the acquisition. Determining the fair value involves the use of management's judgment as well as the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price among assets acquired and liabilities assumed:


	As of March 13, 2024

Other current assets	$	6
Property and equipment	204
Goodwill	7
Other non-current assets	36
Current liabilities	(14)

Deferred tax liabilities	(11)
Other non-current liabilities	(43)
Net assets	185
Cash acquired	—
Total cash consideration, net of cash acquired	$	185

Other Acquisition

On August 30, 2024, we acquired a terminal in Portland, Maine for approximately $24 million, including working capital. The purchase price was primarily allocated to property and equipment.

Divestiture

West Texas Sale

On April 16, 2024, we completed the previously announced sale of 204 convenience stores located in West Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma to 7-Eleven, Inc. for approximately $1.0 billion, including customary adjustments for fuel and merchandise inventory. As part of the sale, SUN also amended its existing take-or-pay fuel supply agreement with 7-Eleven, Inc. to incorporate additional fuel gross profit. As a result of the sale, the Partnership recorded $598 million gain ($451 million, net of current tax expense of $178 million and deferred tax benefit of $31 million).

Other Transactions

Permian Joint Venture

Effective July 1, 2024, SUN and Energy Transfer formed a joint venture combining their respective crude oil and produced water gathering assets in the Permian Basin. Pursuant to the contribution agreement by and among Sunoco LP, SUN Pipeline Holdings LLC, NuStar Permian Transportation and Storage LLC, NuStar Permian Crude Logistics LLC, NuStar Permian Holdings LLC, NuStar Logistics, L.P., ET-S Permian Holdings Company LP, ET-S Permian Pipeline Company LLC, ET-S Permian Marketing Company LLC, Energy Transfer LP, and Energy Transfer Crude Marketing, LLC dated July 14, 2024, in a cashless transaction, SUN contributed all of its Permian crude oil gathering assets and operations to the joint venture. Additionally, Energy Transfer contributed its Permian crude oil and produced water gathering assets and operations to the joint venture. Energy Transfer’s long-haul crude pipeline network that provides transportation of crude oil out of the Permian Basin to Nederland, Houston, and Cushing is excluded from the joint venture.

The joint venture operates more than 5,000 miles of crude oil and water gathering pipelines with crude oil storage capacity in excess of 11 million barrels.

SUN holds a 32.5% interest with Energy Transfer holding the remaining 67.5% interest in the joint venture.

Upon formation, the SUN Permian entities were deconsolidated, and the net book value of the related assets was recorded as the initial carrying value of SUN's equity method investment in the joint venture. As of September 30, 2024, the carrying value of the Partnership’s investment in the joint venture was $1.28 billion.

As of September 30, 2024, the Permian joint venture had current assets of $275 million, noncurrent assets of $3.51 billion, current liabilities of $86 million and noncurrent liabilities of $42 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Permian

5.Inventories, net

Fuel inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Partnership’s fuel inventory balance included lower of cost or market reserves of $329 million and $230 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Partnership’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income did not include any material amounts of income from the liquidation of LIFO fuel inventory. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Partnership's cost of sales included unfavorable inventory valuation adjustments of $197 million, which decreased net income; and for the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Partnership's cost of sales included favorable inventory valuation adjustments of $141 million, which increased net income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Partnership's cost of sales included an unfavorable inventory valuation adjustments of $99 million, which decreased net income; and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Partnership's cost of sales included favorable inventory valuation adjustments of $113 million, which increased net income.

Recent Transactions

April 2024 Notes Offering

On April 30, 2024, the Partnership issued $750 million of 7.000% senior notes due 2029 and $750 million of 7.250% senior notes due 2032 in a private offering. The Partnership used the net proceeds from the offering to (i) repay certain outstanding indebtedness of NuStar, in connection with the merger between the Partnership and NuStar, (ii) fund the redemption of NuStar's preferred units in connection with the merger and (iii) pay offering fees and expenses.

NuStar Acquisition

During the second quarter of 2024, subsequent to the closing of the NuStar acquisition, the Partnership redeemed NuStar's subordinated notes totaling $403 million and repaid and terminated NuStar's credit facility totaling $455 million.

NuStar Logistics Senior Notes. NuStar Logistics, L.P., a wholly owned subsidiary acquired in the NuStar acquisition, (NuStar Logistics”) is the issuer of $2.25 billion of senior notes, including 5.750% senior notes due 2025, 6.000% senior notes due 2026, 5.625% senior notes due 2027 and 6.375% senior notes due 2030 (collectively, the “NuStar Logistics Senior Notes”). Subsequent to the closing of the NuStar acquisition, the indentures related to the Partnership’s senior notes and the indentures related to NuStar Logistics’ senior notes were amended to add certain subsidiaries as guarantors. Consequently, Sunoco LP and NuStar Logistics are each a guarantor of the other’s senior notes, along with other subsidiary guarantors of each.

The NuStar Logistics Senior Notes do not have sinking fund requirements. These notes rank equally with existing senior unsecured indebtedness and senior to existing subordinated indebtedness of NuStar Logistics and contain restrictions on NuStar Logistics’ ability to incur secured indebtedness unless the same security is also provided for the benefit of holders of the NuStar Logistics Senior Notes. In addition, the NuStar Logistics Senior Notes limit the ability of NuStar Logistics and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness secured by certain liens, engage in certain sale-leaseback transactions and engage in certain consolidations, mergers or asset sales. At the option of NuStar Logistics, the NuStar Logistics Senior Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at a redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. If we undergo a change of control that is followed by a ratings decline that occurs within 60 days of the change of control, each holder of the applicable senior notes may require us to repurchase all or a portion of its notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the notes repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

NuStar Logistics’ agreements with the Parish of St. James related to the GoZone Bonds contain: (i) customary restrictive covenants that limit the ability of NuStar Logistics and its subsidiaries to, among other things, create liens, enter into certain sale leaseback transactions, and engage in certain consolidations, mergers or asset sales; and (ii) a repurchase provision which provides that if we undergo a change of control that is followed by a ratings decline that occurs within 60 days of the change of control, then each holder may require the trustee, with funds provided by NuStar Logistics, to repurchase all or a portion of that holder’s GoZone Bonds at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

Credit Facilities

The Partnership's $1.50 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) matures in May 2029 (as amended in May 2024), which date may be extended in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility can be increased from time to time upon our written request, subject to certain conditions, up to an additional $500 million. As of September 30, 2024, the balance on the Credit Facility was $50 million, and $28 million standby letters of credit were outstanding. The unused availability on the Credit Facility at September 30, 2024 was $1.42 billion. The weighted average interest rate on the total amount outstanding at September 30, 2024 was 7.30%. The Partnership was in compliance with all financial covenants at September 30, 2024.

Upon the closing of the NuStar acquisition, the commitments under NuStar’s receivables financing agreement were reduced to zero during a suspension period, for which the period end has not been determined. As of September 30, 2024, this facility had no outstanding borrowings.

Fair Value of Debt

The aggregate estimated fair value and carrying amount of our consolidated debt obligations as of September 30, 2024 were $7.40 billion and $7.34 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, the aggregate fair value and carrying amount of our consolidated debt obligations were $3.50 billion and $3.58 billion, respectively. The fair value of our consolidated debt obligations is a Level 2 valuation based on the respective debt obligations' observable inputs for similar liabilities.

10.Revenue

Disaggregation of Revenue

Subsequent to our acquisition of NuStar, the Partnership's consolidated financial statements reflect three reportable segments: Fuel Distribution, Pipeline Systems and Terminals.

Revenues from our Fuel Distribution segment are derived from the sale of fuel, non-fuel and lease income. Fuel sales consist primarily of the sale of motor fuel under supply agreements with third-party customers and affiliates. Fuel supply contracts with our customers generally provide that we distribute motor fuel at a price based on a formula which includes published rates, volume-based profit margin and other terms specific to the agreement. The customer is invoiced the agreed-upon price with most payment terms ranging less than 30 days. If the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount, the Partnership estimates the variable consideration amount and factors in such estimate to determine the transaction price under the expected value method. Revenue is recognized under the motor fuel contracts at the point in time the customer takes control of the fuel. At the time control is transferred to the customer the sale is considered final, because the agreements do not grant customers the right to return motor fuel. To determine when control transfers to the customer, the shipping terms of the contract are assessed as a primary indicator of the transfer of control. For free on board ("FOB") shipping point terms, revenue is recognized at the time of shipment. The performance obligation with respect to the sale of goods is satisfied at the time of shipment since the customer gains control at this time under the terms. Shipping and/or handling costs that occur before the customer obtains control of the goods are deemed to be fulfillment activities and are accounted for as fulfillment costs. Once the goods are shipped, the Partnership is precluded from redirecting the shipment to another customer and revenue is recognized. Non-fuel revenue includes merchandise revenue that comprises the in-store merchandise and food service sales at company-operated retail stores and other revenue such as credit card processing, car washes, lottery and other services. Lease revenue is derived from the leasing or subleasing of real estate used in the retail distribution of motor fuels.

Revenues from our Pipeline Systems segment are derived from interstate and intrastate pipeline transportation of refined products, crude oil and anhydrous ammonia and the applicable pipeline tariff on a per barrel basis for crude oil or refined products and on a per ton basis for ammonia.

Revenues from our Terminals segment include fees for tank storage agreements, under which a customer agrees to pay for a certain amount of storage in a tank over a period of time (storage terminal revenues) and throughput agreements, under which a customer pays a fee per barrel for volumes moving through our terminals (throughput terminal revenues). Our terminals also provide blending, additive injections, handling and filtering services for which we charge additional fees. Additionally, we lease certain of our storage tanks in exchange for a fixed fee, subject to an annual consumer price index adjustment. We recognized

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract

The Partnership recognized amortization on capitalized costs incurred to obtain contracts of $9 million and $7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $26 million and $20 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

11.Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

From time to time, the Partnership is involved in various legal proceedings and claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. Such proceedings are subject to the uncertainties inherent in any litigation, and we regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of any related contingencies. We maintain liability insurance with insurers with coverage and deductibles management believes are reasonable and prudent. However, there can be no assurance that the levels of insurance protection currently in effect will continue to be available at reasonable prices or that such levels will be adequate to protect us from material expenses related to product liability, personal injury or property damage in the future. Based on currently available information, we believe it is unlikely that the outcome of known matters would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

New York Motor Fuel Excise Tax Audits

Sunoco LLC and Sunoco Retail LLC are currently under motor fuel excise tax audits in the state of New York for the periods of March 2017 through May 2020. These audits are currently ongoing and no assessments have been made. We cannot predict the outcome of these audits; however, to the extent material assessments may be issued, we would expect to use all appropriate administrative and legal measures to defend our positions.

12.Income Tax Expense

As a partnership, we are generally not subject to federal income tax and most state income taxes. However, the Partnership conducts certain activities through corporate subsidiaries which are subject to federal and state income taxes.

Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to Partnership earnings that are not subject to U.S. federal and most state income taxes at the Partnership level. A reconciliation of income tax expense from continuing operations at the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% to net income tax expense is as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023

Income tax expense (benefit) at United States statutory rate	$	4	$	60	$	190	$	111

13.Equity

As of September 30, 2024, Energy Transfer and its subsidiaries owned 28,463,967 of our common units and the public owned 107,537,622 of our common units. As of September 30, 2024, our wholly owned subsidiaries owned all of the 16,410,780 Class C units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership.

Common Units

The change in our outstanding common units for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was as follows:

14.Segment Reporting

Change in Segments

Subsequent to the acquisition of NuStar, management reevaluated the Partnership’s internal reporting, which resulted in changes to the Partnership’s reportable segments. The Partnership’s consolidated financial information now includes three reportable segments: Fuel Distribution, Pipeline Systems and Terminals. The Partnership previously reported reportable segments for Fuel Distribution and Marketing and All Other. The operations within those prior reportable segments have now been reallocated among the new reportable segments, and prior periods have been adjusted accordingly to reflect the current segment presentation. In addition, certain operations within NuStar’s prior standalone reporting have been reallocated based on the post-acquisition internal reporting and management structure; therefore, segment operating results reported herein are not comparable to those previously reported by NuStar in its standalone pre-acquisition financial statements.

Description of Segments

Fuel Distribution. Our Fuel Distribution segment supplies motor fuel to independently-operated dealer stations, distributors, commission agents and other consumers. Also included in our Fuel Distribution segment is lease income from properties that we lease or sublease, as well as the Partnership’s credit card services, franchise royalties and retail operations in Hawaii and New Jersey.

Pipeline Systems. Our Pipeline Systems segment includes the operations of our refined products, crude oil and anhydrous ammonia pipelines, as well as other assets that are operated and managed on an integrated basis with our pipeline systems, including certain terminal and storage assets.

Terminals. Our Terminals segment is composed of our facilities (other than those integrated into the Pipeline Systems segment) that provide storage, handling and other services on a fee basis for refined products, crude oil, specialty chemicals, renewable fuels and other liquids. The segment also includes the operations of our transmix processing facilities.

Segment Operating Results

We report Adjusted EBITDA by segment as a measure of segment performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, non-cash unit-based compensation expense, gains and losses on disposal of assets, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishment of debt, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives, inventory valuation adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations. Inventory valuation adjustments that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represent changes in lower of cost or market reserves on the Partnership's inventory. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(Tabular dollar amounts, except per gallon data, are in millions)

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. Additional discussion and analysis related to the Partnership is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Exhibit 99.1 to the Partnership's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 24, 2024, including the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 included therein.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure of performance that has limitations and should not be considered as a substitute for net income or other GAAP measures. Please see “Key Measures Used to Evaluate and Assess Our Business” below for a discussion of our use of Adjusted EBITDA in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and a reconciliation to net income for the periods presented.

Permian Joint Venture

On July 16, 2024, SUN and Energy Transfer announced the formation of a joint venture combining their respective crude oil and produced water gathering assets in the Permian Basin. Pursuant to the contribution agreement by and among Sunoco LP, SUN Pipeline Holdings LLC, NuStar Permian Transportation and Storage LLC, NuStar Permian Crude Logistics LLC, NuStar Permian Holdings LLC, NuStar Logistics, L.P., ET-S Permian Holdings Company LP, ET-S Permian Pipeline Company LLC, ET-S Permian Marketing Company LLC, Energy Transfer LP, and Energy Transfer Crude Marketing, LLC dated July 14, 2024 in a cashless transaction, SUN contributed all of its Permian crude oil gathering assets and operations to the joint venture. Additionally, Energy Transfer contributed its Permian crude oil and produced water gathering assets and operations to the joint venture. Energy Transfer’s long-haul crude pipeline network that provides transportation of crude oil out of the Permian Basin to Nederland, Houston, and Cushing is excluded from the joint venture.

The joint venture operates more than 5,000 miles of crude oil and water gathering pipelines with crude oil storage capacity in excess of 11 million barrels.

SUN holds a 32.5% interest with Energy Transfer holding the remaining 67.5% interest in the joint venture.

The formation of the joint venture was effective on July 1, 2024. Upon formation, the SUN Permian entities were deconsolidated, and the net book value of the related assets was recorded as the initial carrying value of SUN's equity method investment in the joint venture.

Key Measures Used to Evaluate and Assess Our Business

Management uses a variety of financial measurements to analyze business performance, including the following key measures:

•Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA, as used throughout this document, is defined as earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, non-cash unit-based compensation expense, gains and losses on disposal of assets, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishment of debt, unrealized gains and losses on commodity derivatives, inventory valuation adjustments, and certain other operating expenses reflected in net income that we do not believe are indicative of ongoing core operations. Inventory valuation adjustments that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represent changes in lower of cost or market reserves on the Partnership's inventory. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, read “Key Operating Metrics and Results of Operations” below.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because:

•Adjusted EBITDA is used as a performance measure under our Credit Facility;

•securities analysts and other interested parties use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of financial performance; and

•our management uses Adjusted EBITDA for internal planning purposes, including aspects of our consolidated operating budget and capital expenditures.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and one should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include:

•it does not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our Credit Facility or senior notes;

•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and

Table of Contents

•as not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA reflects amounts for the unconsolidated affiliates based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliates as those excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliates. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliates; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliates. The use of Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates as an analytical tool should be limited accordingly.

Net Income. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period last year, net income decreased primarily due to inventory valuation adjustments (see below for explanation of inventory adjustments), as well as increases in depreciation, amortization and accretion and interest expense. These decreases were partially offset by favorable results from our operations, as reflected in the increases in Segment Adjusted EBITDA. These changes are discussed in more detail below. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period last year, net income increased primarily due to a $598 million gain on the West Texas Sale in April 2024, as discussed below. In addition, the increase in net income reflected favorable results from our operations, as reflected in the increases in Segment Adjusted EBITDA. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable inventory valuation adjustments and increases in depreciation, amortization and accretion, as well as losses on disposal of asset and impairment charges. The increases in net income were also offset by increases in interest expense and income tax expense. These changes are discussed in more detail below.

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA (consolidated). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same periods last year, Adjusted EBITDA increased primarily due to increases in profit of $235 million and $469 million, respectively, excluding inventory valuation adjustments (see below for explanation of inventory adjustments), primarily related to the acquisitions of NuStar and Zenith European terminals, partially offset by increases in operating costs (including operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and lease expense) of $83 million and $246 million, respectively, primarily related to the acquisitions of NuStar and Zenith European terminals.

Additional discussion on the changes impacting net income and comprehensive income and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same periods last year is available below and in “Segment Operating Results.”

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same periods last year, depreciation, depletion and amortization increased primarily due to additional depreciation and amortization from assets recently placed in service and from recent acquisitions.

Interest Expense, net. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period last year, interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in average total long-term debt.

Loss (Gain) on Disposal of Assets and Impairment Charges. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, loss on disposal of assets and impairment charges primarily relates to the termination of a lease in June 2024.

Unrealized (Gains) Losses on Commodity Derivatives. The unrealized gains and losses on our commodity derivatives represent the changes in fair value of our commodity derivatives. The change in unrealized gains and losses between periods is impacted by the notional amounts and commodity price changes on our commodity derivatives. Additional information on commodity derivatives is included in “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” below.

Inventory Valuation Adjustments. Inventory valuation adjustments represent changes in lower of cost or market reserves using the last-in, first-out method on the Partnership’s inventory. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Partnership's cost of sales included unfavorable inventory valuation adjustments of $197 million, which decreased net income; and for the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Partnership's cost of sales included favorable inventory valuation adjustments of $141 million, which increased net income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Partnership's cost of sales included an unfavorable inventory valuation adjustments of $99 million, which decreased net income; and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Partnership's cost of sales included favorable inventory valuation adjustments of $113 million, which increased net income.

Adjusted EBITDA Related to Unconsolidated Affiliates and Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the increase in the amounts reported related to unconsolidated affiliates was primarily due to the formation of the Permian joint venture effective July 1, 2024.

Gain on West Texas Sale. The gain on West Texas Sale relates to the gain recognized by SUN upon completion of the sale of convenience stores to 7-Eleven Inc. in April 2024.

Income Tax Expense. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same periods last year, income tax expense increased primarily due to the taxable gain recognized by a corporate subsidiary on the West Texas Sale.

Segment Operating Results

We evaluate segment performance based on Segment Adjusted EBITDA, which we believe is an important performance measure of the core profitability of our operations. This measure represents the basis of our internal financial reporting and is one of the performance measures used by senior management in deciding how to allocate capital resources among business segments.

The following tables identify the components of Segment Adjusted EBITDA, which is calculated as follows:

•Segment profit, operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. These amounts represent the amounts included in our consolidated financial statements that are attributable to each segment.

•Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliate as those excluded from the calculation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliates. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliates; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliates.

The following analysis of segment operating results includes a measure of segment profit. Segment profit is a non-GAAP financial measure and is presented herein to assist in the analysis of segment operating results and particularly to facilitate an

Table of Contents

understanding of the impacts that changes in sales revenues have on the segment performance measure of Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Segment profit is similar to the GAAP measure of gross profit, except that segment profit excludes charges for depreciation, depletion and amortization. The most directly comparable measure to segment profit is gross profit. The following table presents a reconciliation of segment profit to gross profit.


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Fuel Distribution segment profit	$	164	$	467	$	885	$	1,095

In addition, for the Fuel Distribution segment, the following sections include information on the components of segment profit by sales type, which components are included in order to provide additional disaggregated information to facilitate the analysis of segment profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA. These components of segment profit are calculated consistent with the calculation of segment profit; therefore, these components also exclude charges for depreciation, depletion and amortization.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our principal liquidity requirements are to finance current operations, to fund capital expenditures, including acquisitions from time to time, to service our debt and to make distributions. We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated from operations, borrowings under our Credit Facility and the issuance of additional long-term debt or partnership units as appropriate given market conditions. We expect that these sources of funds will be adequate to provide for our short-term and long-term liquidity needs.

Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and other capital requirements, including capital expenditures and acquisitions, will depend on our future operating performance which, in turn, will be subject to general economic, financial, business, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, many of which are beyond our control. As a normal part of our business, depending on market conditions, we will from time to time consider opportunities to repay, redeem, repurchase or refinance our indebtedness. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions or other events may cause us to seek additional debt or equity financing in future periods. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Debt financing, if available, could impose additional cash payment obligations and additional covenants and operating restrictions. In addition, any of the risks described or referenced under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” herein, including the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 may also significantly impact our liquidity.

As of September 30, 2024, we had $116 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and borrowing capacity of $1.42 billion on our Credit Facility. The Partnership was in compliance with all financial covenants at September 30, 2024. Based on our current estimates, we expect to utilize capacity under the Credit Facility, along with cash from operations, to fund our announced growth capital expenditures and working capital needs for 2024; however, we may issue debt or equity securities prior to that time as we deem prudent to provide liquidity for new capital projects or other partnership purposes.

Table of Contents

Cash Flows

Our cash flows may change in the future due to a number of factors, some of which we cannot control. These factors include regulatory changes, the price of products and services, the demand for such products and services, margin requirements resulting from significant changes in commodity prices, operational risks, the successful integration of our acquisitions and other factors.

Operating Activities

Changes in cash flows from operating activities between periods primarily result from changes in earnings, excluding the impacts of non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities (net of effects of acquisitions and divestitures). Non-cash items include recurring non-cash expenses, such as depreciation, amortization and accretion expense and non-cash unit-based compensation expense. Cash flows from operating activities also differ from earnings as a result of non-cash charges that may not be recurring, such as impairment charges. Our daily working capital requirements fluctuate within each month, primarily in response to the timing of payments for motor fuels, motor fuels tax and rent.

Nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2023. Net cash provided by operating activities during 2024 was $426 million compared to $416 million for 2023, and net income was $733 million for 2024 and $500 million for 2023. The difference between net income and net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily consisted of net changes in operating assets and liabilities (net of effects of acquisitions and divestitures) of $65 million and non-cash items totaling $242 million.

The non-cash activity in 2024 and 2023 consisted primarily of depreciation, amortization and accretion of $216 million and $141 million, respectively, non-cash unit-based compensation expense of $12 million and $13 million, respectively, unfavorable inventory valuation adjustments of $99 million and favorable inventory valuation adjustments of $113 million, respectively, loss on disposal of assets and impairment charges of $52 million and a gain on disposal of assets of $8 million, respectively, amortization of deferred financing fees of $20 million and $6 million, respectively, and deferred income tax benefit of $14 million and deferred income tax expense of $8 million, respectively.

Net income also included equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates of $35 million and $4 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively, as well as a $598 million gain from the West Texas Sale in 2024.

Investing Activities

Cash flows from investing activities primarily consist of capital expenditures, cash contributions to unconsolidated affiliates, cash amounts paid for acquisitions and cash proceeds from the sale or disposal of assets. Changes in capital expenditures between periods primarily result from increases or decreases in our growth capital expenditures to fund our construction and expansion projects.

Nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2023. Net cash provided by investing activities during 2024 was $609 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $213 million for 2023. Capital expenditures for 2024 were $212 million compared to $132 million for 2023. In 2024, we paid $209 million in cash for the acquisitions of terminals, including working capital, and received $27 million in cash from the NuStar acquisition. In 2023, we paid $111 million in cash for the acquisition of 16 refined product terminals from Zenith Energy, including working capital.

Distributions from unconsolidated affiliates in excess of cumulative earnings were $6 million and $7 million for 2024 and 2023, respectively. Proceeds from disposal of property and equipment were $7 million and $25 million for 2024 and 2023, respectively. Additionally, we received $990 million in cash proceeds from the West Texas Sale.

Financing Activities

Changes in cash flows from financing activities between periods primarily result from changes in the levels of borrowings and equity issuances, which are primarily used to fund our acquisitions and growth capital expenditures. Distributions increase between the periods based on increases in the number of common units outstanding or increases in the distribution rate.

Nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2023. Net cash used in financing activities was $948 million and $29 million for 2024 and 2023, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we:

•borrowed $1.50 billion and repaid $415 million in senior notes;

•borrowed $1.87 billion and repaid $2.69 billion under the Credit Facility;

•paid $19 million in loan origination costs;

•redeemed $784 million of preferred units;

•paid $406 million in distributions to our unitholders, of which $165 million was paid to Energy Transfer; and

•paid $8 million in distributions to noncontrolling interests.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we:

•borrowed $2.63 billion and repaid $2.88 billion under the Credit Facility; and

•paid $271 million in distributions to our unitholders, of which $128 million was paid to Energy Transfer.

We intend to pay cash distributions to the holders of our common units and Class C units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership on a quarterly basis, to the extent we have sufficient cash from our operations after establishment of cash reserves and payment of fees and expenses, including payments to our General Partner and its affiliates. Class C unitholders receive distributions at a fixed rate equal to $0.8682 per quarter for each Class C unit outstanding. There is no guarantee that we will pay a distribution on our units. In July 2024, we declared a quarterly distribution of $0.8756 per common unit, which will result in the payment of approximately $119 million to common unitholders and $36 million to the IDR holders. The declared distribution will be paid on August 19, 2024 to unitholders of record on August 9, 2024.

Capital Expenditures

The following is a summary of capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2024:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, total capital expenditures were $212 million, which included $146 million for growth capital and $66 million for maintenance capital.

We currently expect to spend approximately $120 million in maintenance capital expenditures and at least $300 million in growth capital for the full year 2024.

The unused availability on the Credit Facility at September 30, 2024 was $1.42 billion. The weighted average interest rate on the total amount outstanding at September 30, 2024 was 7.30%.

Guarantor Summarized Financial Information

The senior notes issued by NuStar Logistics are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Sunoco LP, Sunoco Finance Corp. and certain of its subsidiaries; the senior notes issued by Sunoco LP and Sunoco Finance Corp. are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NuStar Logistics and certain other subsidiaries. Each guarantee of the senior notes (i) ranks equally in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness of that guarantor, (ii) is structurally subordinated to all existing and any future indebtedness and obligations of any subsidiaries of that guarantor that do not guarantee the notes and (iii) ranks senior to its guarantee of our subordinated indebtedness. See Note 7 of the Notes to Financial Statements in Item 1. “Financial Statements” for a discussion of certain of our debt obligations.

The following tables present summarized combined balance sheet and income statement information for Sunoco LP, Sunoco Finance Corp. and NuStar Logistics (the “Issuers”), as well as the subsidiaries that guarantee the senior notes issued by those three entities (collectively with the Issuers, the “Guarantor Issuer Group”). Intercompany items among the Guarantor Issuer Group have been eliminated in the summarized combined financial information below, as well as intercompany balances and activity for the Guarantor Issuer Group with non-guarantor subsidiaries, including the Guarantor Issuer Group’s investment balances in non-guarantor subsidiaries. Comparative period information is not included in the tables below, as such information was not required for the prior period. Income statement information included below in the table and related disclosure includes the NuStar subsidiaries for May 3, 2024 (the acquisition date) through September 30, 2024 only.

In connection with the formation of the Permian joint venture, certain guarantor subsidiaries were contributed to the joint venture and deconsolidated by the Partnership effective July 1, 2024. Those contributed subsidiaries were released from their guarantees concurrent with the formation of the joint venture. Accordingly, those former guarantor subsidiaries are excluded from the summarized combined balance sheet information presented below, and the summarized combined income statement information below only includes the results of those former guarantor subsidiaries for the period from the NuStar acquisition date of May 3, 2024 through June 30, 2024.


Summarized Combined Balance Sheet Information for the Guarantor Issuer Group:	September 30, 2024
Current assets (a)	$	1,872
Non-current assets	11,193
Current liabilities	1,725
Non-current liabilities, including long-term debt	8,029

(a)Excludes $57 million of net intercompany receivable owed from the non-guarantor subsidiaries from the Guarantor Issuer Group.

Long-term assets for the non-guarantor subsidiaries totaled $864 million as of September 30, 2024.


Summarized Combined Income Statement Information for the Guarantor Issuer Group:	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
Revenues	$	16,852
Operating income	530
Net income	712

Revenues and net income for the non-guarantor subsidiaries totaled $572 million and $13 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Partnership's critical accounting estimates are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 16, 2024. No significant changes have occurred subsequent to the Form 10-K filing.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on our financing, investing and cash management activities. We had $50 million of outstanding borrowings on the Credit Facility as of September 30, 2024. The annualized effect of a one percentage point change in floating interest rates on our variable rate debt obligations outstanding at September 30, 2024 would be an approximately $1 million change to interest expense. Our primary exposure relates to:

•interest rate risk on short-term borrowings; and

•the impact of interest rate movements on our ability to obtain adequate financing to fund future acquisitions.

While we cannot predict or manage our ability to refinance existing debt or the impact interest rate movements will have on our existing debt, management evaluates our financial position on an ongoing basis. From time to time, we may enter into interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our floating rate debt. We had no interest rate swaps in effect during the first nine months of 2024 or 2023.

Commodity Price Risk

Our subsidiaries hold working inventories of refined petroleum products, renewable fuels, gasoline blendstocks and transmix in storage. As of September 30, 2024, we held approximately $801 million of such inventory. While in storage, volatility in the market price of stored motor fuel could adversely impact the price at which we can later sell the motor fuel. However, we may use futures, forwards and other derivative instruments (collectively, "positions") to hedge a variety of price risks relating to deviations in that inventory from a target base operating level established by management. Derivative instruments utilized consist primarily of exchange-traded futures contracts traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange, Chicago Mercantile Exchange and Intercontinental Exchange as well as over-the-counter transactions (including swap agreements) entered into with established financial institutions and other credit-approved energy companies. Our policy is generally to purchase only products for which there is a market and to structure sales contracts so that price fluctuations do not materially affect profit. While these derivative instruments represent economic hedges, they are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. We may also engage in controlled trading in accordance with specific parameters set forth in a written risk management policy.

On a consolidated basis, the Partnership had a position of 0.4 million barrels with an aggregate unrealized gain of $0.2 million at September 30, 2024.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level for which they were designed in that the information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules and forms and such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We closed the acquisition of NuStar Energy L.P. on May 3, 2024, and are currently integrating its operations and internal control structure. Certain of NuStar’s internal controls over financial reporting, including disclosure controls and corporate governance procedures, have already been impacted by changes made to conform to the existing controls and procedures of Sunoco LP. None of the changes resulting from the NuStar acquisition and integration were in response to an identified deficiency or material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

Other than the changes resulting from the NuStar acquisition and integrations, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
