Insights

NACCO delivers solid Q1 with 61.5% operating profit growth despite mixed segment performance; maintains positive outlook for 2025.

NACCO Industries' Q1 2025 results demonstrate meaningful operational improvement with operating profit surging 61.5% to $7.7 million from $4.8 million in Q1 2024. Net income increased 7.2% to $4.9 million, driving diluted EPS up to $0.66 from $0.61. EBITDA grew 14% to $12.8 million.

The operating profit surge was partially offset by unfavorable changes in other income/expense due to lower investment income and higher interest expense, resulting in an 8% decrease in income before taxes. A substantially lower effective tax rate (4.4% vs 18%) enabled net income growth despite lower pre-tax income.

Segment performance varied significantly. Coal Mining showed substantial improvement driven by higher pricing at Falkirk following expiration of temporary price concessions and improved operating efficiencies at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company. North American Mining saw 28.8% revenue growth, mostly from pass-through reimbursed costs, while operating profit declined due to lower delivery volumes and higher employee costs.

The balance sheet remains solid with $61.9 million cash and $90.5 million available credit. NACCO returned capital to shareholders through $1.7 million in dividends and $0.7 million in share repurchases.

The company's diversification efforts show progress, with Mitigation Resources reporting its second consecutive profitable quarter. Management projects increased operating profit for 2025 and steady annual cash flow growth beginning this year, supported by $64 million in planned capital expenditures across multiple business segments.

NACCO's coal operations surge on pricing improvements and operational efficiencies, while diversification into minerals and environmental services advances.

NACCO's Q1 2025 results reveal a strengthening coal segment despite industry headwinds, with Coal Mining operating profit dramatically improving to $3.8 million from a $417,000 loss in Q1 2024. This turnaround reflects strategic pricing improvements at Falkirk following the June 2024 expiration of temporary concessions and enhanced efficiency at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company.

Coal delivery volumes increased 4.6% year-over-year to 6.2 million tons, with unconsolidated operations delivering 5.6 million tons and consolidated operations contributing 591,000 tons. The company notes improved operating conditions after Mississippi Lignite's customer power plant returned to normal two-unit operations, ending a period where it ran at half capacity for much of 2024.

The company's diversification strategy shows tangible progress. Minerals Management revenues increased 4.8% on higher natural gas prices, while the segment's additional investment in Eiger enhanced Adjusted EBITDA. Mitigation Resources achieved consecutive quarterly profitability, an important milestone for this ecological restoration business.

North American Mining faces near-term challenges with operating profit down 16.3% to $2.0 million despite higher revenue. However, the segment secured three new or amended contracts in 2024 expected to generate approximately $20 million in net present value after-tax cash flows over contract terms ranging from 6-20 years.

NACCO's comments on regulatory environment suggest improved stability for fossil fuels, with management noting coal will remain an essential part of the U.S. energy mix for the foreseeable future - a notably positive stance given their core operations.

First Quarter 2025 Compared to First Quarter 2024

The significant improvement in consolidated operating profit was primarily due to a substantial increase in the Coal Mining segment operating profit and improved Mitigation Resources of North America® results. These improvements were partly offset by lower North American Mining segment results and an increase in Unallocated operating expenses, principally employee-related and outside services costs. A significant unfavorable change in other (income)/expense due to lower investment income and higher net interest expense offset the operating profit improvement, resulting in a moderate decrease in income before taxes.

The substantially lower first-quarter 2025 effective income tax rate drove the moderate increase in year-over-year net income.

Liquidity

At March 31, 2025, the Company had consolidated cash of $61.9 million and total debt of $95.8 million, with availability of $90.5 million under its revolving credit facility.

In the 2025 first quarter, the Company paid $1.7 million in dividends and repurchased approximately 22,200 shares of its Class A Common Stock at prevailing market prices for an aggregate purchase price of $0.7 million. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $7.8 million remaining under its $20 million share repurchase program that expires at the end of 2025.

First-quarter 2025 revenues grew 23.8% due to an increase in tons delivered at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company. Prior year deliveries were lower as the power plant served by the mine operated with only one of its two boilers from mid-December 2023 through July 2024.

Coal Mining operating profit and Adjusted EBITDA increased significantly year-over-year mainly as a result of higher earnings of unconsolidated operations and improved operating results at Mississippi Lignite Mining Company. Earnings of unconsolidated operations increased mainly due to higher pricing at Falkirk after the expiration of temporary price concessions in June 2024 and a moderate increase in tons sold at Coteau. Improved operating efficiencies on higher tons sold primarily drove the increase in Mississippi Lignite Mining Company results.

(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.


North American Mining® revenues grew 28.8% 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. Net of reimbursed costs, revenues increased modestly mainly as a result of an increase in parts sales largely offset by fewer tons delivered due to reduced customer requirements.

The increase in profits on parts sales was more than offset by the effect of lower delivery volumes and an increase in employee-related costs, which resulted in a decrease in the 2025 first-quarter operating profit.

(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 revenues increased 4.8% primarily due to higher natural gas revenues, driven by higher natural gas prices, partly offset by a reduction in oil and coal royalties. 

The improvement in Segment Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to additional income from the increased equity investment in Eiger.

Outlook

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. We are confident in our trajectory and business prospects in 2025, and we continue to prepare for longer-term growth opportunities. Specifically for 2025, we expect to generate a moderate year-over-year increase in consolidated operating profit.

In 2025, the Coal Mining segment anticipates solid customer demand, with deliveries expected to increase modestly from 2024. We expect a more favorable near-term regulatory environment for the fossil fuel industry moving forward. These developments are expected to further support coal as an essential part of the energy mix in the United States for the foreseeable future.

The Coal Mining segment expects to benefit from the expiration of temporary price concessions at Falkirk and increased customer requirements at Coteau. In addition, Mississippi Lignite Mining Company continues to recover from inefficiencies experienced while its customer's Red Hills Power Plant operated on one of two generation units for more than half of 2024. With the power plant now anticipated to operate at a level consistent with historical averages, coal deliveries are expected to return to more normal levels, resulting in moderate cost efficiencies. However, an anticipated reduction in the 2025 contractually determined per ton sales price compared with 2024 is expected to offset these improvements, causing Mississippi Lignite Mining Company results to decline from prior year levels. An expected increase in operating expenses will contribute to an overall anticipated moderate year-over-year decrease in Coal Mining segment operating profit. 

North American Mining is expected to generate increasing levels of operating profit over time as benefits of new and extended contracts add to the profitability of existing contracts. During 2024, North American Mining executed three new or amended existing contracts, which are expected to deliver net present value after-tax cash flows of approximately $20 million over contract terms that range from 6 to 20 years. North American Mining is expected to deliver improved results in 2025, with anticipated lower first half results offset by expected performance gains in the second half of the year. While customer demand is projected to remain relatively stable year-over-year, profitability improvements will be driven by operational efficiencies and an increased focus on part sales. North American Mining is continuously seeking to enter into new or amended contracts to solidify its position as the foundation for NACCO's mining-related growth initiatives.

North American Mining's subsidiary, Sawtooth Mining, is the exclusive provider of comprehensive mining services at Thacker Pass, which is owned through a joint venture between Lithium Americas Corp. (TSX: LAC) (NYSE: LAC) and General Motors Holdings LLC. Sawtooth will supply all of the lithium-bearing ore requirements for Thacker Pass, which is currently under construction. We expect to continue to recognize moderate income at Sawtooth while it assists with certain construction services. Once the mine is operating, Sawtooth will be reimbursed for costs of mining, capital expenditures and mine closure and will recognize a contractually agreed upon production fee. In addition to providing comprehensive mining services, Sawtooth will receive a fee to transport clay tailings once lithium production commences. Phase 1 lithium production is estimated to begin in late 2027.

The Minerals Management segment, through its Catapult Mineral Partners business, has constructed a high-quality, diversified portfolio of oil and gas mineral and royalty interests in the United States. In late 2024, Minerals Management invested an additional $15.7 million in Eiger, a company that holds non-operated working interests in oil and natural gas assets in the Kansas and Oklahoma portions of the Hugoton basin. This investment, accounted for under the equity method, is expected to be accretive and contribute to the anticipated improvement in 2025 operating profit compared with 2024. First-half earnings are expected to be comparable to prior year results with an anticipated significant improvement in the second half given expected trends in oil and natural gas prices and projected volumes.

Minerals Management continues to build its portfolio with a mix of producing wells, near-term development opportunities and undeveloped acreage. We believe our data-driven approach to acquisitions and our long-term perspective provides a competitive advantage as undeveloped assets provide additional upside potential over the life of the reserve. While we continue to budget up to $20 million annually to expand our portfolio and provide long-term stable cash flow generation, our business model allows flexibility regarding the cadence and type of investment based on available opportunities that we believe will create long-term value and generate increasing profitability.

Mitigation Resources of North America® provides stream and wetland mitigation solutions as well as comprehensive reclamation and restoration construction services. This business is an avenue for growth and diversification in an area where NACCO has built a strong reputation based on its substantial knowledge and expertise. Mitigation Resources continues to expand, and as of March 31, 2025, has projects located in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Texas.

Mitigation Resources also provides ecological restoration services for abandoned surface mines and plans to pursue other environmental restoration projects. It was named a designated provider of abandoned mine land restoration by the State of Texas, and in January 2025 secured a restoration project in Kentucky that is expected to be accretive to earnings beginning in 2026.

Mitigation Resources reported its second consecutive quarter of profitability in the first quarter of 2025 and is expected to achieve full-year 2025 profitability based on current expectations for the timing of permit approvals and mitigation credit releases, as well as income generated from service-related projects. Mitigation Resources is expected to increase profitability over time, and provide a return on capital employed in the mid-teens as the business matures.

We established ReGen Resources in 2023 to address the rapidly increasing demand for additional power generation sources in the United States through development of energy and energy-related projects that utilize multiple-generation technologies, such as solar combined with gas-fired generation, primarily on reclaimed mining properties. These projects could be developed by ReGen Resources directly or through joint ventures that include partners with expertise in energy development projects. Current projects include solar arrays, solar-gas hybrid projects and carbon capture projects on reclaimed mine land in Mississippi and Texas. Additional projects in other states are in early-stage review.

We are taking actions to terminate our defined benefit pension plan in 2025, which will eliminate future earnings volatility from changes in the pension obligation. Once complete, obligations under the terminated plan will be transferred to a third-party insurance provider. Surplus assets are expected to be utilized to fund a qualified replacement plan, reducing future cash funding requirements. Although the plan is currently over funded, a significant non-cash settlement charge is anticipated upon termination, which is expected to lead to a substantial year-over-year decrease in net income and EBITDA compared with 2024. Excluding the anticipated settlement charge, net income is expected to decrease moderately from the prior year.

Consolidated capital expenditures are expected to total approximately $64 million in 2025, which includes approximately $13 million for Coal Mining, $23 million for North American Mining, $20 million for Minerals Management and $8 million predominantly for ReGen Resources and other growth businesses. Based on our current business plan, we project a steady increase in annual cash flow generation beginning in 2025.

We believe that each of our businesses has competitive advantages that provide value to customers and create long-term value for stockholders. We are pursuing organic growth and diversification by strategically leveraging our core natural resources management skills to build a robust portfolio of affiliated businesses. Opportunities for growth remain strong and are increasing amid recent successes and a significant positive change in the regulatory environment, particularly for fossil fuels. 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 longer-term outlook. 

We are committed to maintaining a conservative capital structure as we continue to grow and diversify, while avoiding unnecessary risk. We believe strategic diversification will generate cash that can be re-invested to strengthen and expand the businesses or distributed to investors in the form of share repurchases or dividends. We continue to maintain the highest levels of customer service and operational excellence with an unwavering focus on safety and environmental stewardship.
