Description: SXC SunCoke Energy December 25, 2025

SunCoke Energy, Inc. (NYSE:SXC) is an independent coke producer operating in the United States and Brazil. The firm’s operations are divided into three segments-Domestic Coke, Brazil Coke, and Logistics-and it supplies metallurgical and thermal coal, as well as material-handling and mixing services to steelmakers, electric utilities, and other industrial customers.

Key operational metrics that investors watch include: (1) 2023 coke production of roughly 2.2 million short tons, delivering an adjusted EBITDA of about $210 million; (2) a debt-to-EBITDA ratio near 3.2×, reflecting the capital-intensive nature of cokemaking assets; and (3) sensitivity to global steel demand and coking-coal price spreads, which have been tightening as Asian steel output rebounds and freight costs normalize.
