09.08.2013  |  PR Newswire

PR Newswire

RICHMOND, Va., Aug. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

  • Mine Operations Continue to Adjust to Soft Coal Market Conditions
  • Available Liquidity at June 30, 2013 of $108.8 Million Compared to $107.2 Million at March 31, 2013
  • Capital Expenditures of $11.9 Million in Q-2, 2013
  • Completed Private Exchange Transactions, Which Reduced Principal Amount of Debt by $120.1 Million
  • Continuing to Evaluate Options to Strengthen the Balance Sheet and Improve Liquidity
  • Conference Call Slides Posted to Company Website

James River Coal Company (NASDAQ: JRCC),  today announced that it had net income of $52.6 million or $1.16 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2013 and net income of $10.5 million or $0.29 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Second quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2013 results include $101.2 million or $2.20 per share and $2.82 per share, respectively, of pre-tax gain related to the Private Exchange Transactions.  The 2013 results are compared to net loss of $25.8 million or $0.74 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2012 and net loss of $41.4 million or $1.19 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Peter T. Socha, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented: "Things are still interesting in the coal industry.  We continue to be pleased with our mine operations.  They are doing an excellent job of managing their people, costs, capital, and assets during a difficult time in the coal industry.  The coal markets have continued to be soft.  The thermal markets are still weak, but we can see several factors that may lead to improvement later this year and into 2014.  The met markets have clearly weakened during the past several months.  We are a little more cautious about met than we had been earlier this year.  We have started to take definitive action to strengthen our balance sheet and improve our liquidity position during this period of soft coal markets.  We have been very encouraged by the input and support that we have received from many parties during this difficult process."

FINANCIAL RESULTS

The following tables show selected operating results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012 (in 000's except per ton amounts).

JAMES RIVER COAL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES 
Reconciliation of Non GAAP Measures
(in thousands)
(unaudited)

 

EBITDA is used by management to measure operating performance. We define EBITDA as net income or loss plus interest expense (net), income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA), to better measure our operating performance. We regularly use EBITDA to evaluate our performance as compared to other companies in our industry that have different financing and capital structures and/or tax rates. In addition, we use EBITDA in evaluating acquisition targets.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA as further adjusted for certain cash and non-cash charges as specified in our revolving credit facility and is used in several of the covenants in that facility. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA presents a useful measure of our ability to service and incur debt on an ongoing basis.

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and are not an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of operating liquidity. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as they do not reflect certain cash requirements such as tax payments, interest payments and other contractual obligations.
