Sunoco LP faces potential financial risks due to liabilities associated with assets acquired from other parties, where indemnification from the sellers is not always guaranteed. The company has sometimes indemnified previous owners, increasing its exposure to historical liabilities. Assets used for transporting and storing crude oil and refined products may have past issues requiring expensive remediation. If significant past liabilities emerge without indemnification, Sunoco LP’s financial health and operational results could be negatively impacted, and it may also face costs from liabilities related to assets it has sold if buyers have valid indemnification claims.
Overall, Wall Street has a Strong Buy consensus rating on ET stock based on 9 Buys and 1 Hold.
