NACCO Industries reported strong Q3 2024 results with operating profit of $19.7 million compared to a $6.3 million loss in Q3 2023. Net income reached $15.6 million versus a $3.8 million loss last year. The improvement was primarily driven by $13.6 million in business interruption insurance recoveries and better performance in Coal Mining and Minerals Management segments. At quarter-end, the company had $63.1 million in cash and $70.2 million in total debt. The company repurchased approximately 68,000 shares for $2.0 million and amended its revolving credit facility to increase commitments to $200.0 million with extended maturity to September 2028.

NACCO Industries ha riportato risultati solidi per il terzo trimestre del 2024, con un utile operativo di 19,7 milioni di dollari rispetto a una perdita di 6,3 milioni di dollari nel terzo trimestre del 2023. Il reddito netto ha raggiunto 15,6 milioni di dollari contro una perdita di 3,8 milioni di dollari lo scorso anno. Il miglioramento è stato principalmente alimentato da 13,6 milioni di dollari in recuperi da assicurazione per interruzione dell’attività e da prestazioni migliori nei segmenti dell'estrazione del carbone e della gestione mineraria. Alla fine del trimestre, l'azienda possedeva 63,1 milioni di dollari in contante e 70,2 milioni di dollari in debito totale. L'azienda ha riacquistato circa 68.000 azioni per 2,0 milioni di dollari e ha modificato la propria linea di credito rotativa per aumentare gli impegni a 200,0 milioni di dollari, con scadenza prorogata a settembre 2028.

NACCO Industries reportó resultados sólidos para el tercer trimestre de 2024, con una ganancia operativa de 19,7 millones de dólares en comparación con una pérdida de 6,3 millones de dólares en el tercer trimestre de 2023. El ingreso neto alcanzó 15,6 millones de dólares frente a una pérdida de 3,8 millones de dólares el año pasado. La mejora fue impulsada principalmente por 13,6 millones de dólares en recuperaciones de seguros por interrupción de negocios y un mejor desempeño en los segmentos de minería de carbón y gestión de minerales. Al final del trimestre, la empresa tenía 63,1 millones de dólares en efectivo y 70,2 millones de dólares en deuda total. La compañía recompró aproximadamente 68,000 acciones por 2,0 millones de dólares y enmendó su línea de crédito revolvente para aumentar los compromisos a 200,0 millones de dólares, con vencimiento extendido hasta septiembre de 2028.

NACCO Industries는 2024년 3분기 강력한 실적을 보고했으며, 운영 이익은 1,970만 달러로 전년 동기 630만 달러 손실 대비 크게 개선되었습니다. 순이익은 1,560만 달러에 달하며, 작년의 380만 달러 손실과 대조되었습니다. 이러한 개선은 주로 1,360만 달러의 사업 중단 보험 회수와 석탄 채굴 및 광물 관리 부문의 성과 개선에 의해 이끌어졌습니다. 분기 말에 회사는 6,310만 달러의 현금과 7,020만 달러의 총 부채를 보유했습니다. 회사는 약 68,000주를 200만 달러에 재매입했으며, 회전 신용 시설을 수정하여 약속 금액을 2억 달러로 늘리고 만기를 2028년 9월로 연장했습니다.

NACCO Industries a rapporté de bons résultats pour le troisième trimestre 2024, avec un bénéfice d'exploitation de 19,7 millions de dollars contre une perte de 6,3 millions de dollars au troisième trimestre 2023. Le revenu net a atteint 15,6 millions de dollars par rapport à une perte de 3,8 millions de dollars l'année dernière. L'amélioration a été principalement due à 13,6 millions de dollars de récupérations d'assurances d'interruption d'activité et à une meilleure performance dans les segments de l'exploitation charbonnière et de la gestion des minéraux. À la fin du trimestre, l'entreprise avait 63,1 millions de dollars en liquidités et 70,2 millions de dollars de dettes totales. L'entreprise a racheté environ 68 000 actions pour 2,0 millions de dollars et a modifié sa ligne de crédit renouvelable pour augmenter les engagements à 200,0 millions de dollars, avec un échéance prolongée jusqu'en septembre 2028.

NACCO Industries hat im dritten Quartal 2024 starke Ergebnisse gemeldet, mit einem operativen Gewinn von 19,7 Millionen Dollar im Vergleich zu einem Verlust von 6,3 Millionen Dollar im dritten Quartal 2023. Der Nettogewinn erreichte 15,6 Millionen Dollar gegenüber einem Verlust von 3,8 Millionen Dollar im Vorjahr. Die Verbesserung wurde hauptsächlich durch 13,6 Millionen Dollar an Rückerstattungen von Betriebsunterbrechungsversicherungen und eine bessere Leistung in den Segmenten Kohlenbergbau und Mineralienmanagement begünstigt. Zum Quartalsende hatte das Unternehmen 63,1 Millionen Dollar in bar und 70,2 Millionen Dollar an Gesamtschulden. Das Unternehmen hat ungefähr 68.000 Aktien für 2,0 Millionen Dollar zurückgekauft und seine revolvierende Kreditfazilität geändert, um die Verpflichtungen auf 200,0 Millionen Dollar zu erhöhen, mit einer verlängerten Laufzeit bis September 2028.

Insights

The Q3 2024 results show significant improvement with operating profit increasing to $19.7 million from a $6.3 million loss in Q3 2023. Key highlights include $13.6 million in business interruption insurance recoveries and improved performance in Coal Mining and Minerals Management segments.

The company maintains a strong balance sheet with $63.1 million cash and expanded credit facility to $200 million. The strategic share repurchase of $2.0 million demonstrates confidence in future prospects.

Notable segment improvements include Coal Mining's recovery from losses to significant profits, Minerals Management's 54% revenue growth, though offset by North American Mining's slight decline. The company's diversification strategy and focus on critical infrastructure positions it well for 2025, despite coal industry challenges.

The operational turnaround at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company and improved results at Falkirk and Coteau operations signal strengthening fundamentals in NACCO's core business. The resolution of the power plant's mechanical issues and end of temporary price concessions at Falkirk create positive momentum.

The company's strategic expansion into minerals management and environmental services through Mitigation Resources demonstrates forward-thinking diversification. The Thacker Pass lithium project partnership positions NACCO in the critical minerals sector, though meaningful revenue impact won't materialize until 2027.

The focus on maintaining coal mining competitiveness while developing renewable energy projects on reclaimed land through ReGen Resources shows adaptability to energy transition trends.

Non-GAAP financial measures are defined and reconciled on page 8.

The substantial increase in the Company's 2024 third-quarter operating profit and net income was primarily due to $13.6 million of pre-tax income related to business interruption insurance recoveries at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company and significantly improved operating results in the Coal Mining and Minerals Management segments. These improvements were partly offset by lower North American Mining results.

At September 30, 2024, the Company had consolidated cash of $63.1 million and total debt of $70.2 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately 68,000 shares for $2.0 million under an existing share repurchase program. The Company also amended its revolving credit facility during the quarter to increase the revolving credit commitments to $200.0 million and extend the maturity to September 2028. Availability under the revolver was $130.9 million at September 30, 2024.

The Coal Mining segment generated significant third-quarter 2024 operating profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA compared with prior year losses, despite moderately lower revenues.

Third-quarter 2024 revenues decreased primarily as a result of fewer tons delivered at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company. Customer demand declined as the power plant served by the mine operated with only one of its two boilers from December 2023 to the end of July 2024. This mechanical issue at the power plant has now been resolved. During the third quarter, Mississippi Lignite Mining Company settled its business interruption insurance claim associated with the boiler outage for $13.6 million.

Excluding the effect of the insurance recoveries, operating profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA still grew substantially. This increase was mainly due to improved results at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company and higher earnings of unconsolidated operations.

The improvement in Mississippi Lignite Mining Company results was primarily attributable to increased operating efficiencies due to the completion of the move to a new mine area in late 2023 and improved mining conditions. Changes in the level of coal inventory and costs capitalized into inventory also contributed to the improvement. The increase in earnings of unconsolidated operations was primarily due to increased pricing at Falkirk that began in June 2024 when temporary price concessions ended, and improved results at Coteau.

Coal Mining Outlook

The prior-year fourth-quarter results included a $60.8 million pre-tax impairment charge. Comparisons in this section exclude the effect of this charge. The Company anticipates significant year-over-year increases in Coal Mining operating profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA in the 2024 fourth quarter. This anticipated improvement is primarily due to higher earnings at the unconsolidated coal mining operations driven primarily by an expectation for increased deliveries, as well as a higher per ton management fee at Falkirk. An anticipated improvement in results at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company due to an increase in the index-based sales price partly offset by a reduction in customer demand is also expected to contribute to the profit improvement. Full-year 2024 results are also expected to increase compared with 2023.

Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $12 million for the 2024 full year.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP. See non-GAAP explanation and the related reconciliations to GAAP on page 9.

North American Mining® revenues grew significantly year-over-year, primarily due to an increase in reimbursed costs, which have an offsetting amount in cost of goods sold and therefore no impact on gross profit. Favorable pricing and delivery mix at the limestone quarries also contributed to the increased revenues. The effect of lower customer deliveries, primarily due to an increase in planned customer outages and significant rain events in Florida during the third quarter of 2024, partly offset the revenue increase.

Despite higher revenues, operating results and Segment Adjusted EBITDA declined in third-quarter 2024 compared with 2023. These decreases were mainly the result of a $0.9 million charge to establish a reserve against a customer receivable during the quarter, as well as higher supplies and labor-related expenses.

North American Mining Outlook

North American Mining expects the 2024 fourth quarter and full-year operating profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA to increase year-over-year. The fourth quarter results are also anticipated to improve over the 2024 third quarter. These improvements are primarily due to the late 2023 amendment of limestone contracts to more mutually advantageous contract terms and a scope of work expansion with another customer.

Sawtooth Mining is the exclusive provider of comprehensive mining services at Thacker Pass, which is owned by Lithium Americas Corp. (TSX: LAC) (NYSE: LAC). Sawtooth Mining will supply all of the lithium-bearing ore requirements for Thacker Pass, which is currently under construction. Sawtooth will be reimbursed for costs of mining, capital expenditures and mine closure and will recognize a contractually agreed upon production fee once the mine is operating. In addition to providing comprehensive mining services, Sawtooth Mining is currently assisting with certain construction services and will transport clay tailings once lithium production commences. Phase 1 lithium production is estimated to begin in 2027. Prior to that time, the Company expects to continue to recognize moderate income.

North American Mining expects full-year 2024 capital expenditures to be approximately $26 million, with approximately $12 million expended in the fourth quarter.

(1)

Segment Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP. See non-GAAP explanation and the related reconciliations to GAAP on page 9.

Minerals Management's third-quarter 2024 revenues, operating profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA improved significantly over the prior year quarter. These improvements were primarily due to higher production volumes, mainly from assets acquired late in 2023.

Minerals Management Outlook

Operating profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the 2024 fourth quarter and full year are expected to decrease compared with the respective 2023 periods, excluding the fourth-quarter 2023 impairment charge of $5.1 million and a $4.5 million gain on sale recognized in the 2024 second quarter. These declines are primarily driven by current market expectations for natural gas and oil prices, as well as development and production assumptions on currently owned reserves.

The Minerals Management segment derives income primarily from royalty-based leases under which lessees make payments to the Company based on their sale of natural gas, oil, natural gas liquids and coal, extracted primarily by third parties. As an owner of royalty and mineral interests, the Company's access to information concerning activity and operations with respect to its interests is limited. The Company's expectations are based on the best information currently available. Changing prices of natural gas and oil could have a significant impact on Minerals Management's operating profit. Development of additional wells on existing interests in excess of current expectations, or acquisitions of additional interests, could be accretive to future results.

Minerals Management is targeting investments of up to $20 million in the 2024 fourth quarter. Future investments are expected to be accretive, but each investment's contribution to near-term earnings is dependent on the details of that investment, including the size and type of interests acquired and the stage and timing of mineral development.

Consolidated Outlook

Fourth-quarter 2023 results included a $65.9 million pre-tax impairment charge. Comparisons in this section exclude the effect of this charge. Overall, fourth-quarter and full-year 2024 consolidated operating profit and Adjusted EBITDA are expected to increase significantly year-over-year. These improvements are primarily due to anticipated increases in profitability at the Coal Mining segment from improved results at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company, Falkirk and Coteau. North American Mining's growth and profit improvement initiatives are also expected to contribute to the improved earnings. Full-year 2024 net income is expected to increase significantly over 2023.

Full-year 2024 consolidated capital expenditures are expected to total approximately $69 million, which includes approximately $11 million for Unallocated capital expenditures, primarily at Mitigation Resources of North America®. During the 2024 fourth quarter, the Company expects to expend up to $38 million, including $20 million related to Minerals Management. In 2024, cash flow before financing activities is expected to be a use of cash.

2025 Perspectives & Long-term Growth and Diversification

NACCO's businesses provide critical inputs for electricity generation, construction and development, and the production of industrial minerals and chemicals. Increasing demand for electricity, on-shoring and current federal policies are creating favorable macroeconomic trends within these industries. Management is confident in the Company's trajectory and business prospects as it prepares for 2025 and longer-term growth opportunities.

While the Company realizes the coal mining industry faces political and regulatory challenges and overall demand for coal is projected to decline over the longer-term, management believes coal should be an essential part of the energy mix in the United States for the foreseeable future. The Company anticipates continued solid customer demand at its coal mining operations in 2025 and will benefit from the absence of temporary price concessions at Falkirk. Cost inflation is anticipated to affect Mississippi Lignite Mining Company's 2025 results.

North American Mining expects to build on its current 2024 momentum to deliver further improved results in 2025. Benefits from new and amended contracts, and new business expansion opportunities, are expected to generate improved 2025 results on expectations for comparable year-over-year customer demand. New contracts and contract extensions are central to the business' organic growth strategy, and the Company expects North American Mining to be a substantial contributor to operating profit over time. 

The Minerals Management segment, through its Catapult Mineral Partners business, is constructing a high-quality, diversified portfolio of oil and gas mineral and royalty interests in the United States that are expected to deliver near-term cash flow yields and long-term projected growth. The current portfolio provides a strong foundation of well-positioned assets that are expected to continue to deliver solid financial results. While the timing of returns could vary, the Company maintains a long-term perspective. Given current trends in oil and natural gas prices and projected volumes, the Company anticipates a moderate production decline in 2025. The Company believes the Minerals Management business will provide unlevered after-tax returns on invested capital in the mid-teens as it matures.

Mitigation Resources, which provides stream and wetland mitigation solutions as well as comprehensive reclamation and restoration construction services, continues to build on the substantial foundation it has established over the past several years. Mitigation Resources business offers an opportunity for growth and diversification in an industry where the Company has substantial knowledge and expertise and a strong reputation. It currently has ten mitigation banks and four permittee-responsible mitigation projects located in Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Texas, Florida and Pennsylvania. In addition, Mitigation Resources is providing ecological restoration services for abandoned surface mines, as well as pursuing additional environmental restoration projects. It was named a designated provider of abandoned mine land restoration by the State of Texas. The Company believes that Mitigation Resources can provide solid rates of return on capital employed as this business matures. Mitigation Resources expects to achieve profitability beginning in 2025 based on current expectations for new projects, as well as timing of permit approvals and mitigation credit releases.

The Company is taking actions to terminate its defined benefit pension plan, which will eliminate future volatility from changes in the pension obligation. Once complete, obligations under the terminated plan will be transferred to a third-party insurance provider. The Company expects to utilize surplus assets to fund a qualified replacement plan, reducing future cash funding requirements. Although the plan is currently over funded, NACCO is anticipating a non-cash settlement charge in 2025 upon termination.

The Company believes its businesses have competitive advantages that provide value to customers and create long-term value for stockholders. The Company is pursuing growth and diversification by strategically leveraging its core mining and natural resources management skills to build a robust portfolio of affiliated businesses. Opportunities for growth remain strong. Acquisitions of additional mineral interests and improvements in the outlook for Coal Mining segment customers, as well as new contracts at Mitigation Resources and North American Mining should be accretive to the Company's longer-term outlook. 

NACCO also continues to pursue activities which can strengthen the resiliency of its existing coal mining operations. The Company remains focused on managing coal production costs and maximizing efficiencies and operating capacity at mine locations to help customers with management fee contracts be more competitive. These activities benefit both customers and the Company's Coal Mining segment, as fuel cost is a significant driver for power plant dispatch. Increased power plant dispatch results in increased demand for coal by the Coal Mining segment's customers. Fluctuating natural gas prices, weather and availability of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, could affect the amount of electricity dispatched from coal-fired power plants.

The Company continues to look for ways to create additional value by utilizing its core mining competencies which include reclamation and permitting. NACCO established ReGen Resources to utilize these skills to address the rapidly increasing demand for additional power generation sources in the United States through development of solar and other energy-related projects on reclaimed mining properties. These projects could be developed by the Company itself or through joint ventures that include partners with expertise in energy development projects. Current opportunities under review include solar arrays, solar-gas hybrid projects and carbon capture on reclaimed mine land in Mississippi, Pennsylvania and Texas.

NACCO is committed to maintaining a conservative capital structure as it continues to grow and diversify, while avoiding unnecessary risk. The Company believes strategic diversification will generate cash that can be re-invested to strengthen and expand the businesses. The Company also continues to maintain the highest levels of customer service and operational excellence with an unwavering focus on safety and environmental stewardship.
