Re-entered Zone B at North Goonyella and Reached Agreement to Acquire Adjacent Coal Deposit

Initiated Longwall Installation at Shoal Creek

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Peabody (NYSE: BTU) today reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $119.9 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $179.2 million, or $1.15 per diluted share in the second quarter. Peabody had Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $270.0 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $358.2 million in the prior quarter.

"In the third quarter of 2023, we delivered strong operational results with better-than-expected production and effective cost management. The diversity of our portfolio enables us to provide consistent and predictable results," said Peabody President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Grech. "We made substantial progress on strengthening our metallurgical platform as we moved to the next stage of redevelopment at North Goonyella and agreed to acquire an adjacent coal deposit. The addition of this world-class coal deposit in the same seam as North Goonyella leverages our existing infrastructure and equipment. The acquired resources will support a North Goonyella mine life of 25 years or more, making North Goonyella a premier, tier one premium hard coking coal mine."

Exceeded anticipated PRB volumes by 8 percent, shipping ~23 million tons in the quarter
Reported lower than anticipated costs per ton in three of our four operating segments during the quarter

Progressed installation of a new longwall at Shoal Creek, on plan, with longwall production targeted early in the first quarter of 2024
Reached a $72 million settlement with the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) for disputed legacy black lung claims avoiding significantly higher collateral requirements under proposed DOL rules

¹ Adjusted EBITDA and Available Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to segment Adjusted EBITDA divided by segment revenue. Revenue per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton are equal to revenue by segment and Adjusted EBITDA by segment, respectively, divided by segment tons sold. Costs per Ton is equal to Revenue per Ton less Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton. Management believes Costs per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton best reflect controllable costs and operating results at the reporting segment level. We consider all measures reported on a per ton basis, as well as Adjusted EBITDA margin, to be operating/statistical measures. Please refer to the tables and related notes in this press release for a reconciliation and definition of non-GAAP financial measures.

Seaborne Metallurgical Segment Initiatives

The Company is committed to making strategic investments in its existing seaborne metallurgical portfolio to substantially increase expected coal production and mine life.

North Goonyella – Recently completed a key project milestone of Zone B re-entry. The project remains on track to commence mining of development coal in the first quarter of 2024 and begin longwall panel development.

The Board provided full funds approval to complete development at North Goonyella with longwall production expected in 2026. Total project capital expenditures have been revised to $489 million, an increase of $109 million over prior estimates, due to higher labor costs, equipment cost escalations, and increased regulatory and development costs. Since commencing development in late 2022, the Company has invested $75 million.

The project is expected to generate returns in excess of 21 percent at long term premium hard coking coal prices (~$180/tonne - real) from the initial 20 million tons of longwall production.

Wards Well – On October 25, the company reached an agreement to acquire a large portion of the Wards Well coal deposit that is immediately adjacent to our North Goonyella mine, for cash consideration of $136 million and a contingent royalty of up to $200 million payable after recovery of our full project investment and coal prices exceeding certain targets. The acquisition represents a strategic opportunity to extend the mine life of our premium hard coking coal North Goonyella mine by over 20 years through an integrated 130 million ton mine plan.

Shoal Creek – Development coal production continues and is ahead of target with favorable geological conditions in the L panel area. All significant longwall equipment is now at site and longwall shields are being positioned on the face. First longwall production is anticipated early in the first quarter of 2024.

Metropolitan – Replacing the existing longwall kit at the mine (excluding shields). New equipment will be in place as the mine progresses to the next longwall panel commencing in the first quarter of 2024. Capital expenditures associated with the longwall equipment have largely been accounted for in 2023.

Shareholder Return Program

Peabody generated $87.5 million in operating cash flow from continuing operations in the third quarter which included $81.0 million in working capital charges. The Company also invested $68.1 million in capital expenditures and reached a $72.0 million cash settlement with the DOL for disputed black lung liabilities from discontinued operations. AFCF¹ for the first nine months of 2023 was $647.6 million.

Based on financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the $0.075 per share dividend declared on October 26, 2023, at least $103.6 million is currently available for additional 2023 shareholder returns in accordance with our previously announced program.

(1)	Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income from continuing operations before deducting net interest expense, income taxes, asset retirement obligation expenses and depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is also adjusted for the discrete items that management excluded in analyzing each of our segment's operating performance, as displayed in the reconciliation above. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as the primary metric to measure each of our segment's operating performance and allocate resources.
(2)	Total Reporting Segment Costs is defined as operating costs and expenses adjusted for the discrete items that management excluded in analyzing each of our segment's operating performance, as displayed in the reconciliation above. Total Reporting Segment Costs is used by management as a component of a metric to measure each of our segment's operating performance.
(3)	Available Free Cash Flow is defined as operating cash flow minus investing cash flow and distributions to noncontrolling interests; plus/minus changes to restricted cash and collateral (excluding one-time effects of the recent surety agreement amendment) and other anticipated expenditures. Available Free Cash Flow is used by management as a measure of our ability to generate excess cash flow from our business operations.
