Insights

Financial Analyst

Alpha's Q2 shows operational improvements despite losses, with strengthened liquidity position and cost reductions offsetting market challenges.

Alpha's Q2 results demonstrate a sequential improvement despite continuing challenges in the metallurgical coal market. The company posted a $5.0 million net loss ($0.38 per share), significantly better than Q1's $33.9 million loss, while Adjusted EBITDA improved to $46.1 million from $5.7 million in Q1.

The most impressive achievement was the company's cost control initiatives. Cost of coal sales decreased to $100.06 per ton, their best quarterly performance since 2021, prompting management to lower full-year guidance to $101-$107 per ton from $103-$110. This $2.50 reduction at the midpoint should significantly impact profitability.

Alpha's liquidity position remains exceptionally strong at $556.9 million, including $449.0 million in cash. This represents a strategic achievement for the company, which had prioritized building liquidity during the recent market downturn. With this improved position, management plans to opportunistically restart their share repurchase program, which has $400 million remaining authorization.

The company's operational performance showed modest improvement with Met segment coal volume increasing to 3.9 million tons from 3.8 million in Q1, while realizations improved slightly to $119.43 per ton from $118.61. For 2025, Alpha has committed and priced approximately 69% of its metallurgical coal at an average of $127.37 per ton.

Looking ahead, a potential tailwind comes from the recently signed "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" which added metallurgical coal to the list of critical minerals eligible for tax credits. Alpha estimates this could provide $30-$50 million in annual cash benefits between 2026-2029.

The year-over-year comparison remains challenging, as Q2 2024 delivered $58.9 million in net income and $116.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA, reflecting the significant market deterioration that has occurred over the past year in metallurgical coal pricing.

• Reports second quarter net loss of $5.0 million
• Posts Adjusted EBITDA of $46.1 million for the quarter
• Achieves total liquidity of $556.9 million as of June 30
• Accomplishes best quarterly cost of coal sales performance since 2021; lowers 2025 cost of coal sales guidance range to $101 per ton to $107 per ton, down from $103 per ton to $110 per ton
• Reduces SG&A guidance to $48 million to $54 million, down from prior range of $53 million to $59 million
• Increases net cash interest income guidance to $6 million to $12 million, up from prior range of $2 million to $10 million
• Raises full year guidance range for idle operations expense to $21 million to $29 million, up from previous range of $18 million to $28 million

Alpha's Met segment cost of coal sales decreased to an average of $100.06 per ton in the second quarter, compared to $110.34 per ton in the first quarter. The primary drivers of the cost reduction include labor and supplies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities in the second quarter increased to $53.2 million as compared to $22.2 million in the first quarter. Capital expenditures for the second quarter were $34.6 million compared to $38.5 million for the first quarter.

As of June 30, 2025, the company had total liquidity of $556.9 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $449.0 million and $182.9 million of unused availability under the asset-based revolving credit facility (ABL), partially offset by a minimum required liquidity of $75.0 million as required by the ABL. As of June 30, 2025, the company had no borrowings and $42.1 million in letters of credit outstanding under the ABL. Total long-term debt, including the current portion of long-term debt as of June 30, 2025, was $5.8 million.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law legislation commonly referred to as the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" ("OBBBA"). The OBBBA includes the addition of metallurgical coal to the list of "applicable critical minerals" for purposes of the Section 45X credit. The Section 45X credit (also known as the advanced manufacturing production credit), as amended, provides a refundable tax credit equal to 2.5% of the production costs for metallurgical coal produced during tax years 2026 through 2029. We are currently analyzing the financial impact of the Section 45X credit and expect that it will serve as a source of additional liquidity in future years. Based on preliminary analysis, the company currently believes the annual cash benefit of the tax credit may be in the range of $30 million to $50 million, dependent upon the amount of qualifying production costs incurred in a given year.

Share Repurchase Program

As previously announced, Alpha's board of directors authorized a share repurchase program allowing for the expenditure of up to $1.5 billion for the repurchase of the company's common stock, with remaining authorization of approximately $400 million. Due to softness in the metallurgical coal markets over approximately the last five quarters, the company has refrained from repurchasing shares, electing instead to focus on strengthening its liquidity position. Having achieved a meaningful increase in liquidity over that time period, the company plans to restart the share repurchase program on an opportunistic basis. The timing and amount of share repurchases will be based on various factors, including but not limited to market conditions, the trading price of the stock, applicable legal requirements, compliance with the provisions of the company's debt agreements, and other factors.

2025 Guidance Adjustments and Performance Update

Alpha is lowering its cost of coal sales guidance for the year to a range of $101.00 per ton to $107.00 per ton, down from the prior range of $103.00 per ton to $110.00 per ton.

The company is also reducing its 2025 guidance for selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. The new range is $48 million to $54 million, down from the previous range of $53 million to $59 million.

The company is increasing its expected idle operations expense for the year, moving to a range of $21 million to $29 million, up from the prior range of $18 million to $28 million.

Alpha expects increased net cash interest income for the year between $6 million and $12 million, up from the previously established range of $2 million to $10 million.

As of July 30, 2025, Alpha has committed and priced approximately 69% of its metallurgical coal for 2025 at an average price of $127.37 per ton and 100% of its thermal coal for the year at an average price of $80.52 per ton.

	Notes:
1.	Based on committed and priced coal shipments as of July 30, 2025. Committed percentage based on the midpoint of shipment guidance range.
2.	Actual average per-ton realizations on committed and priced tons recognized in future periods may vary based on actual freight expense in future periods relative to assumed freight expense embedded in projected average per-ton realizations.
3.	Includes estimates of future coal shipments based upon contract terms and anticipated delivery schedules. Actual coal shipments may vary from these estimates.
4.	Note: The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton sold financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying with reasonable accuracy significant items required for the reconciliation. The most directly comparable GAAP measure, GAAP cost of sales, is not accessible without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis. The reconciling items include freight and handling costs, which are a component of GAAP cost of sales. Management is unable to predict without unreasonable efforts freight and handling costs due to uncertainty as to the end market and FOB point for uncommitted sales volumes and the final shipping point for export shipments. These amounts have varied historically and may continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and material changes to these items could have a significant effect on our future GAAP results.
5.	Excludes expenses related to non-cash stock compensation and non-recurring expenses.
6.	Includes contributions to fund normal operations at our DTA export facility and expected capital investments related to the facility upgrades.

FINANCIAL TABLES FOLLOW

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The discussion below contains "non-GAAP financial measures." These are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP"). Specifically, we make use of the non-GAAP financial measures "Adjusted EBITDA," "non-GAAP coal revenues," "non-GAAP cost of coal sales," and "non-GAAP coal margin." In addition to net income, we use Adjusted EBITDA to measure the operating performance of our reportable segment. Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or any other measure of operating results, financial performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, this measure is not calculated identically by all companies and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it is a useful indicator of the financial performance of our coal operations. We use non-GAAP coal revenues to present coal revenues generated, excluding freight and handling fulfillment revenues. Non-GAAP coal sales realization per ton for our operations is calculated as non-GAAP coal revenues divided by tons sold. We use non-GAAP cost of coal sales to adjust cost of coal sales to remove freight and handling costs, depreciation, depletion and amortization - production (excluding the depreciation, depletion and amortization related to selling, general and administrative functions), accretion on asset retirement obligations, amortization of acquired intangibles, net, and idled and closed mine costs. Non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton for our operations is calculated as non-GAAP cost of coal sales divided by tons sold. Non-GAAP coal margin per ton for our coal operations is calculated as non-GAAP coal sales realization per ton for our coal operations less non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton for our coal operations. The presentation of these measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. The definition of these non-GAAP measures may be changed periodically by management to adjust for significant items important to an understanding of operating trends and to adjust for items that may not reflect the trend of future results by excluding transactions that are not indicative of our core operating performance. Furthermore, analogous measures are used by industry analysts to evaluate the Company's operating performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate, capital investments and other factors.

Included below are reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures.
