Insights

The Q3 2024 results show mixed performance with notable financial metrics: $101.3M net income ($0.74/share), down from $119.9M year-over-year and Adjusted EBITDA of $224.8M. Key positives include strong operating cash flow of $359.9M and completion of $100M share repurchases.

The Centurion project is exceeding development expectations, with $1.6B estimated NPV and 25% IRR. The company has invested $250M of $489M needed for longwall production by March 2026. Segment performance shows resilience in Seaborne Thermal with 38% EBITDA margins, while PRB volumes outperformed at 22.1M tons.

The shareholder return program remains robust with $469.6M remaining in the buyback program and continued quarterly dividends of $0.075 per share.

The coal market dynamics are reflected in Peabody's segment performance. Seaborne thermal prices show improvement with export realized prices increasing to $105.51 per ton. The strategic positioning in metallurgical coal through Centurion will transform Peabody into a leading met coal producer, diversifying revenue streams and potentially commanding premium pricing in Asian markets.

The guidance update indicates management's confidence in operational execution, with increased full-year volume targets for Seaborne Thermal. Capital expenditure revision to $425M reflects accelerated development strategy, signaling strong growth prospects despite near-term cost pressures in some segments.

1 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to segment Adjusted EBITDA (excluding insurance recoveries) divided by segment revenue. Revenue per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton are equal to revenue by segment and Adjusted EBITDA by segment (excluding insurance recoveries), 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 herein for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures.

Peabody expected seaborne met volume of 1.7 million tons at costs of $120 to $130 per ton. Third quarter shipments and costs were in-line with expectations. We opportunistically withheld nearly 90 thousand tons of shipments at Shoal Creek to avoid higher alternate logistics costs and weak market conditions for spot sales. The segment reported Adjusted EBITDA of $27.8 million and is positioned for a stronger fourth quarter.

Centurion Update

On October 14, 2024, Peabody provided a comprehensive update on the Centurion premium hard coking coal project (click here to view), estimating a net present value of $1.6 billion with a 25 percent internal rate of return. The project is expected to produce 4.7 million tons annually at first quartile costs over a 25 plus year mine life. Two continuous miner units are operational, first development coal was produced in June, first coal was washed in September and first customer shipment is scheduled for the fourth quarter. Peabody has invested $250 million of the projected $489 million needed to reach longwall production in March 2026. Centurion's benchmark premium hard coking coal from the Bowen Basin is highly attractive to customers in the Asian market, making Centurion a cornerstone asset in Peabody's global coal portfolio. 

Shareholder Return Program

During the third quarter of 2024, Peabody repurchased 4.5 million shares for a total of $100 million. The total repurchases for the year is 7.7 million shares totaling $180.4 million. Since recommencing the program in 2023, Peabody has repurchased 23.8 million shares for a total amount of $530.4 million, leaving $469.6 million remaining under its existing $1 billion share repurchase program.

The company declared a $0.075 per share dividend on October 31, 2024.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Outlook   

Seaborne Thermal

  • Volume is expected to be 4.1 million tons, including 2.5 million export tons. 0.4 million export tons are priced at approximately $120 per ton, and 0.8 million tons of Newcastle product and 1.3 million tons of high ash product are unpriced. Costs are anticipated to be $48-$53 per ton. Full year volume guidance increased by 200 thousand tons to 16-16.4 million tons due to higher production at Wilpinjong.

Seaborne Metallurgical

  • Volume is anticipated to be 2.3 million tons and is expected to achieve 70 to 75 percent of the premium hard coking coal price index. Costs are anticipated to be $120-$125 per ton.

U.S. Thermal

  • PRB volume is expected to be 21.2 million tons at an average price of $13.50 per ton and costs of approximately $11.50-$12.00 per ton.
  • Other U.S. Thermal volume is expected to be 3.9 million tons at an average price of $52.40 per ton and costs of approximately $44-$48 per ton. Full year costs have been increased $2 per ton to $43-$47 per ton as Twentymile is experiencing challenging geological conditions temporarily reducing production.

Capital Expenditures

  • Full-year anticipated capital has been increased by $50 million to $425 million primarily due to accelerated development at Centurion and timing of spend at Wambo Open-Cut.

Today's earnings call is scheduled for 10 a.m. CT and can be accessed via the company's website at PeabodyEnergy.com.
