   Sunoco logo. (PRNewsFoto/SUNOCO, INC.)

PHILADELPHIA, PA UNITED STATES
    PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sunoco, Inc. (NYSE:
SUN) today reported net income of $123 million ($1.00 per share diluted)
for the fourth quarter of 2006 versus $287 million ($2.12 per share
diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2005. Excluding special items, income
was $297 million ($2.19 per share diluted) for the fourth quarter of 2005.
There were no special items in the current fourth-quarter period.

    For the full-year 2006, Sunoco reported net income of $979 million
($7.59 per share diluted) versus $974 million ($7.08 per share diluted) for
the full-year 2005. Excluding special items, Sunoco's income for 2005 was
$1,012 million ($7.36 per share diluted). There were no special items in
the 2006 full-year period.
    "2006 was another very strong year for Sunoco," said John G. Drosdick,
Sunoco Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Despite significant
volatility in refined product markets and some maintenance downtime in our
Refining system, our earnings per share were the highest in the Company's
history and we generated a return on capital employed in excess of 28
percent.
    "We earned $881 million in Refining and Supply and $205 million in our
four non-refining businesses. With the introduction of ethanol-blended
gasoline to much of our Northeast market and the shift to both low-sulfur
gasoline and ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel across the country, the year was
one of significant transition for the industry. Our entire organization
worked hard to ensure we remained a reliable supplier of quality
transportation fuels in the markets we serve."
    Commenting on the fourth quarter, Drosdick said, "Our Refining and
Supply business earned $126 million as seasonal declines in gasoline
margins and an unseasonably warm start to the winter heating oil season
reduced realized refining margins from second and third quarter levels. In
addition, scheduled and unscheduled maintenance activity reduced production
available for sale by about five million barrels during the quarter.
    "Retail Marketing had a loss of $11 million in the fourth quarter as
retail gasoline prices declined and squeezed margins significantly versus
record third-quarter levels. The Chemicals business rebounded from the
third quarter to earn $16 million in the fourth quarter as lower average
crude prices led to lower feedstock prices and expanded margins in both our
polypropylene and phenol businesses.
    "During the quarter, we continued to execute our ongoing share
reduction program, repurchasing 2.1 million shares at a total cost of $137
million. As of December 31, we had 121.3 million shares outstanding, an
11.8 million reduction (9 percent) from the beginning of the year."
    Commenting on 2007, Drosdick said, "Our two main capital projects in
our Refining and Supply business remain on track for completion in the
first half of the year. In February, our Philadelphia refinery will begin a
scheduled two-month turnaround, during which the final tie-in work for our
fluid catalytic cracking unit expansion and residual fuel upgrading project
will be completed. We estimate the work will reduce production in our
Northeast system by approximately eight million barrels in the first
quarter. In addition, we expect to complete the Toledo crude debottleneck
project in the second quarter. Both projects have largely completed
construction and pre-turnaround work.
    Drosdick continued, "The Company expects to complete the $40 million
Toledo project at or near the budgeted level, while total capital for the
Philadelphia project is now estimated at $500 million, up $100 million from
prior estimates. The increased costs reflect more current cost estimates
and the impact of some material delivery delays and related productivity
issues. Despite the higher costs, these projects represent valuable
upgrades to our refining system and should provide attractive returns on
our investments. We expect to maintain overall capital spending for
Refining and Supply at approximately $800 million for 2007 by deferring or
eliminating discretionary projects."
    DETAILS OF FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS

    REFINING AND SUPPLY
    Refining and Supply earned $126 million in the fourth quarter of 2006
versus $286 million in the post-hurricane-impacted fourth quarter of 2005.
The decrease was primarily due to lower realized margins and production
across Sunoco's refining system, partially offset by a $16 million
after-tax benefit attributable to LIFO inventory profits. In the Northeast,
margins declined $2.95 per barrel, primarily attributable to wholesale
gasoline. In the MidContinent, a $.93 per barrel decline due to much lower
margins for diesel fuel was only partially offset by higher petrochemical
and lubricants margins.
    Total crude unit throughput averaged 813.7 thousand barrels daily (90
percent utilization) for the current quarter, with total production
available for sale approximating 81 million barrels. A combination of
accelerated turnaround work and opportunistic maintenance in our Northeast
system early in the quarter was the main reason for the decline in crude
throughputs versus last year's fourth quarter. In addition, a power
interruption from the local utility resulted in lost production at the
Toledo refinery in December.
    RETAIL MARKETING
    Retail Marketing had a loss of $11 million in the fourth quarter of
2006 versus income of $25 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The
decrease was primarily due to much lower retail gasoline margins and a $6
million after-tax charge related to an environmental litigation claim.
Monthly gasoline and diesel throughput per company owned or leased outlet
was up 14 percent from the fourth quarter of 2005.
    CHEMICALS
    Chemicals earned $16 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 versus $8
million in the prior-year period. The increase in earnings was due
primarily to higher sales volumes and lower operating expenses and
purchased fuel costs, partially offset by lower margins.
    LOGISTICS
    Earnings for the Logistics segment were $11 million in the fourth
quarter of 2006 versus $3 million in the prior-year period. The improvement
is primarily related to higher earnings from Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P.
(NYSE: SXL) and the absence of $4 million of after-tax charges recorded in
the fourth quarter of 2005 for environmental remediation activities, asset
impairments and insurance settlements.
    COKE
    The Coke business earned $17 million in the fourth quarter of 2006
versus $10 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The increase was
primarily due to tax credits, including a $3 million investment tax credit
adjustment relating to the Haverhill facility. As a result of lower crude
oil prices, the current quarter results included a $2 million favorable
adjustment to the partial phase-out of tax credits accrued earlier in 2006.
For the full year, Sun Coke recorded only 65 percent of the benefit of the
tax credits that otherwise would have been available without regard to the
phase-out associated with high crude oil prices, reducing income by $8
million.
    CORPORATE AND OTHER
    Corporate administrative expenses were $20 million after tax in the
current quarter versus $27 million in the comparable quarter last year. The
decrease was largely due to lower accruals for stock-related incentive
compensation. The current quarter results included after-tax expenses of $3
million related to the corporate portion of charges associated with the
accelerated recognition of share-based incentive compensation for
retirement-eligible employees under SFAS No. 123R.
    Net financing expenses and other were $16 million after tax in the
fourth quarter of 2006 versus $8 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 due
primarily to lower interest income, higher long-term debt expenses and a $3
million after-tax loss related to the Company's December 2006 purchase of
the Jewell coke partnership minority interest for $155 million.
    SPECIAL ITEM
    During the fourth quarter of 2005, Sunoco recognized a $10 million
after-tax loss associated with an arbitration decision related to a phenol
pricing dispute.
    TWELVE MONTH RESULTS
    Sunoco earned $979 million, or $7.59 per share of common stock on a
diluted basis, for the full-year 2006 versus $974 million, or $7.08 per
share, for the full-year 2005. The increase was primarily due to higher
margins in Sunoco's Refining and Supply and Retail Marketing businesses and
the absence of a loss associated with a phenol supply contract dispute.
Partially offsetting these positive factors were higher expenses, including
fuel charges; lower margins from Sunoco's Chemicals business; and lower
production of refined products.
    Sunoco, Inc., headquartered in Philadelphia, PA, is a leading
manufacturer and marketer of petroleum and petrochemical products. With
900,000 barrels per day of refining capacity, nearly 4,700 retail sites
selling gasoline and convenience items, approximately 5,500 miles of crude
oil and refined product owned and operated pipelines and 38 product
terminals, Sunoco is one of the largest independent refiner-marketers in
the United States. Sunoco is a significant manufacturer of petrochemicals
with annual sales of approximately five billion pounds, largely chemical
intermediates used to make fibers, plastics, film and resins. Utilizing a
unique, patented technology, Sunoco also has the capacity to manufacture
over 2.5 million tons annually of high-quality metallurgical-grade coke for
use in the steel industry.

quarter's results can monitor the Company's quarterly teleconference call,
