Justin Jenkins's questions to Sunoco LP (SUN) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
Justin Jenkins of Raymond James followed up on the Suncorp dividend, asking for a potential timeline for dividend equivalency. He also questioned the financing strategy for the Parkland acquisition and inquired about the underlying fuel demand backdrop and impacts from recent market volatility.
Answer
Treasurer & SVP - Finance Scott Grischow reiterated confidence that the Suncorp dividend equivalency period will extend 'well past the two year mark' due to tax planning and future growth. He confirmed the plan to fund the Parkland deal's cash portion with senior notes and preferred equity, pragmatically monitoring markets for timing. CCO Austin Harkness described fuel demand trends as stable, with gasoline flat-to-slightly-down and diesel having waned, but stated Sunoco expects to outperform these trends due to its growth investments.
