Diluted EPS came in at $1.21, clearing the $1.18 consensus estimate by 2.57%, even as revenue slipped 5.8% year-over-year to $5.18 billion, missing the $5.58 billion consensus by 7.17%, a decline largely tied to the 2024 West Texas asset sale. The more telling metric was Adjusted EBITDA, which nearly doubled to $458 million from $242 million a year ago, reflecting the full-quarter contribution of the NuStar acquisition. Looking ahead, Sunoco's growth ambitions are unmistakably large, with the pending $9.10 billion acquisition of Parkland Corporation and the approximately €500 million purchase of German terminal operator TanQuid both expected to close in the second half of 2025 and be immediately accretive. The partnership also raised its quarterly distribution for the second consecutive quarter, keeping its target of at least 5% annual distribution growth for 2025 firmly in sight.

Key Takeaways

  • NuStar acquisition completed May 2024 drove Pipeline Systems segment from zero to $172 million Adjusted EBITDA
  • NuStar and Zenith European terminal acquisitions boosted Terminals segment Adjusted EBITDA from $24 million to $66 million
  • Fuel margin improvement to 11.5 cents per gallon from 10.9 cents per gallon year-over-year
  • West Texas asset sale in April 2024 reduced Fuel Distribution volumes but lowered expenses
  • Formation of ET-S Permian joint venture on July 1, 2024 contributed to Pipeline Systems growth
