• Transformative Acquisitions Detailed

  The company completed the acquisition of Parkland Corporation on October 31, 2025, for approximately $2.6 billion in cash and 51.5 million SunocoCorp units, adding a new Refinery segment and expanding international operations. It also completed the TanQuid acquisition for approximately $540 million in January 2026, further expanding its European terminal footprint.

• Significant Debt Increase

  Total consolidated debt surged from $7.486 billion in 2024 to $13.389 billion in 2025, primarily to fund these acquisitions. The company reported a net leverage ratio of 4.03 to 1.00 as of December 31, 2025.

• Strong Operational Performance

  Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA increased substantially to $2.047 billion in 2025 from $1.457 billion in 2024, driven by the full-year impact of the NuStar acquisition and two months of Parkland's operations.

• Internal Control Exclusion for Parkland

  Management excluded the newly acquired Parkland Corporation (with $13.35 billion in assets and $3.17 billion in revenues) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, due to ongoing integration activities. The auditor's report also noted this exclusion.

This 10-K provides a comprehensive overview of SunocoCorp's significant transformation in 2025, marked by aggressive expansion through major acquisitions like Parkland Corporation and TanQuid. While these acquisitions have substantially boosted the company's scale and operational metrics, as evidenced by the strong Adjusted EBITDA growth, they have also led to a considerable increase in consolidated debt, raising the company's leverage profile. A critical disclosure is the exclusion of the newly acquired Parkland Corporation, a substantial entity, from the internal control over financial reporting assessment. This indicates ongoing integration challenges and introduces a notable risk regarding financial reporting integrity for a significant portion of the combined entity. Investors should monitor the successful integration of these large acquisitions and the resolution of the internal control assessment for Parkland, as well as the company's ability to manage its increased debt load. The company's "controlled company" status and extensive risk factors related to regulatory and geopolitical conditions also warrant close attention.
