Peabody Reports Earnings For Quarter Ended June 30, 2018
ST. LOUIS, July 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Peabody (NYSE: BTU) today announced its second quarter 2018 operating results, including revenues of $1.31 billion, income from continuing operations, net of income taxes of $120.0 million, net income attributable to common stockholders of $113.7 million, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.93 and Adjusted EBITDA1 of $369.6 million.
"Peabody's diversified portfolio continues to generate substantial returns, led by 39 percent margins from the company's Australian platform, as we capitalize on continued strength in seaborne metallurgical and thermal coal fundamentals," said Peabody President and Chief Executive Officer Glenn Kellow. "During the quarter, Peabody also freed up all remaining cash collateral, reduced debt and returned $213 million in cash through buybacks and dividends. Peabody continues to generate cash, maintain financial strength and return cash to shareholders as part of a financial approach that is as consistent as it is powerful."
Second Quarter 2018 Results
Revenues for the second quarter increased 4 percent over the prior year to $1.31 billion driven by a 20 percent increase in Australian met and thermal sales volumes, offsetting the impact of lower U.S. volumes and $48.1 million on unrealized long-dated Newcastle hedge losses as the forward price of seaborne thermal coal sharply increased as of the end of the quarter. Prior-year Australian metallurgical volumes had been impacted by temporarily reduced shipments in Queensland from Cyclone Debbie.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization rose $15.6 million over the prior year primarily due to higher depletion associated with higher Australian and Western volumes. Income from continuing operations, net of income taxes totaled $120.0 million, an 18 percent increase over the prior year driven by higher revenues. Net income attributable to common stockholders increased $133.9 million to $113.7 million as the prior year was impacted by $115.1 million of non-cash preferred stock dividends. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations improved $1.11 per share to $0.93 per share primarily due to higher revenue and the prior year impact of non-cash dividends on preferred stock that subsequently converted to common stock.
Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA totaled $369.6 million, a $51.8 million increase over the prior year, driven by higher metallurgical sales volumes and continued strength in seaborne pricing.
Peabody's Australian platform continued to produce substantial results, with total Adjusted EBITDA of $266.1 million contributed in the quarter. Australian Adjusted EBITDA increased $88.3 million over the prior year as a result of 45 percent higher metallurgical volumes and further strengthening in seaborne thermal and low-vol PCI pricing. Australian sales volumes totaled 7.9 million tons, including 2.9 million tons of metallurgical coal sold at an average price of $143.98 per ton and 2.9 million tons of export thermal coal sold at an average price of $78.68 per ton, with the remainder delivered under a long-term domestic contract.
Second quarter Australian thermal realized pricing increased 4 percent to $53.68 per ton, with export realized pricing rising 12 percent, on higher sales and continued high seaborne pricing benefiting spot sales. Australian thermal led the company in Adjusted EBITDA margins of 40 percent as higher volumes and elevated pricing mitigated the effects of higher costs associated with temporarily increased overburden ratios at the Wilpinjong Mine.
The Australian metallurgical coal segment continued to lead the company in revenues of $417.5 million, an increase of 45 percent compared to the prior year, largely due to sustained demand for quality metallurgical coal and healthy seaborne pricing levels. Costs per ton declined $19.70 per ton to $89.37 per ton as operational performance improved following an extended longwall move due to gas drainage at the Metropolitan mine in the second quarter of 2017. As expected, second quarter costs improved relative to the first quarter of 2018 and are expected to be within the company's annual guidance range for the year. The Australian metallurgical segment once again led the company in Adjusted EBITDA contributions of $158.5 million, as Adjusted EBITDA margins increased to 38 percent.
Americas Adjusted EBITDA totaled $137.9 million compared to $176.2 million in the prior year. Revenue per ton increased modestly compared to the prior year as favorable mix offset the impact of 5 percent lower volumes. U.S. costs per ton increased 8 percent to $15.12 per ton primarily due to wet weather in the PRB and Midwest, with the North Antelope Rochelle mine recording record rainfall, as well as higher fuel costs across the platform.
Peabody generated second quarter operating cash flow of $335.7 million, while Free Cash Flow totaled $324.1 million, including the release of $109.1 million of all remaining cash collateral requirements. In addition, Peabody received $34.9 million in Middlemount cash contributions and $29.6 million in proceeds from a land sale completed in the first quarter. The company invested $71.9 million in capital expenditures during the quarter.
In conjunction with the term loan amendment in April to reduce pricing and modify terms to provide additional financial and operational flexibility, the company repaid $46.0 million of its term loan balance, bringing total gross debt to $1.40 billion as of June 30, 2018, at the high-end of its targeted long-term debt range.
As part of the company's ongoing shareholder return initiatives, Peabody repurchased nearly $200 million of common stock in the quarter, and an additional $25 million since June 30, 2018, bringing total share repurchases to $575 million under its $1.0 billion repurchase program begun in August 2017. The company has repurchased a total of 15.6 million shares under the program to date, including 5.4 million since March 31, representing 11 percent of shares initially outstanding on a fully converted basis.
In addition, the company paid a quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.115 per share, totaling approximately $14 million in the second quarter. In recognition of the scale of the share repurchase program, Peabody's board of directors recently declared a quarterly dividend of $0.125 per share to be payable on Aug. 23, 2018 for owners of record as of Aug. 2, 2018.
Quarter-end liquidity totaled $1.78 billion, including $1.45 billion in cash and cash equivalents, $220 million of available revolver capacity and $104 million of accounts receivable securitization capacity.
In addition, during the quarter Peabody entered into an agreement to sell the Millennium Mine's interest in certain resources for total cash consideration of approximately $22 million. Peabody expects to collect approximately $4 million in July upon completion of the sale, with the remaining $18 million to be received over the subsequent 12 months. Given the location of the tenements, costs to develop and pending closure of Millennium, selling these resources represents the preferred economic outcome. In conjunction with the closing of the transaction in the third quarter of 2018, Peabody expects to record a gain on the sale of approximately $22 million.

Industry Conditions
Vigorous seaborne thermal demand led to further strengthening in seaborne thermal coal pricing during the quarter, with Newcastle spot pricing reaching highs of approximately $116 per tonne in the second quarter.
Chinese thermal coal imports rose approximately 20 percent, or 19 million tonnes, through June compared to the prior year on sturdy industrial activity and an approximately 8 percent increase in thermal power generation driven by favorable weather conditions. In addition, domestic coal production has been unable to keep pace with the increased power generation and industrial demands, along with customer restocking.
India's domestic coal production has also been unable to keep pace with growing electricity demand, resulting in an approximately 13 percent increase, or 9 million tonnes, in thermal coal imports through June compared to the prior year. Coal inventories at India's power plants remain below targeted levels, further supporting the need for additional thermal coal imports.
In addition, ASEAN imports increased compared to the prior year on continued urbanization and general economic growth. Peabody expects this trend to continue as 56 gigawatts of new coal plants in 24 countries worldwide are expected to come online in 2018. The majority of new plants are located in the Asia-Pacific region, with additional plants announced in a number of other countries anticipated to come online in future years.
Through May, Australian exports have remained essentially flat, with Indonesia and U.S. thermal coal exports through May increasing approximately 18 million tonnes and 8 million tonnes, respectively, supporting ongoing strength in seaborne pricing. Annual contracts under Japanese Reference Pricing terms were recently reported as settled in July at $110 per tonne.
Turning to metallurgical coal, reference prices eased from the first quarter of 2018 but remain above historical averages, reaching a high of $201 per tonne last quarter.
Global steel production remains strong, rising 4 percent year-to-date through May, with May output increasing over 6 percent to an all-time high.
Despite continued strength in Chinese steel production, metallurgical coal imports declined approximately 7 million tonnes year-to-date through June compared to the prior year primarily due to increased reliance on domestic supplies.
As expected, India continues to lead the growth in metallurgical coal demand, with imports increasing approximately 16 percent through June compared to the prior year driven by an approximately 5 percent increase in steel production.
Australian exports rebounded from the prior year effects of Cyclone Debbie, increasing approximately 7 million tonnes through May compared to the prior year. While the Aurizon rail and labor issues in Queensland continue to garner significant media attention, Peabody has yet to be impacted by delays in rail services and continues to closely monitor the situation.
Compared to the prior year, second quarter 2018 seaborne hard coking coal spot pricing remained steady at an average price of approximately $190 per tonne. The index-based settlement price for premium hard coking coal was approximately $197 per tonne compared to approximately $194 per tonne in the prior year. The second quarter benchmark low-vol PCI price was negotiated at $155 per tonne, with the third quarter benchmark settled at $150 per tonne.
In the U.S., industry conditions remain challenged as utility coal consumption declined 5 percent from the prior year, despite a 4.5 percent increase in total load. Natural gas and wind generation continued to rise, along with an increase in nuclear generation driven by the timing of refueling across nuclear plants. In addition, retirements continue to weigh on coal demand and account for an estimated 3 percent of the decline in year-to-date coal demand. Powder River Basin demand decreased 5 percent due to ongoing pressure from retirements and regional natural gas prices that continue to trade at a discount to quoted Henry Hub prices.
While domestic demand has weakened, U.S. exports have continued to benefit from strong seaborne pricing, with thermal exports through May up 48 percent compared to the prior year. As a result of hearty U.S. exports and declining U.S. coal production, stockpiles have decreased from the prior year by an estimated 34 million tons as of the end of June to approximately 46 days of maximum burn.
Third Quarter 2018 Expectations
Relative to the second quarter, Peabody expects the longwall move at North Goonyella to impact third quarter metallurgical segment Adjusted EBITDA margins by about $15 per ton related to costs and sales mix. These impacts are anticipated to be partly offset by increased export thermal coal sales, higher U.S. volumes and positive Resource Management results related to the sale of exploration tenements in Australia.
- Australian export thermal volumes are expected to continue to increase sequentially, with the fourth quarter anticipated to be the segment's strongest shipping quarter.
- The North Goonyella longwall has commenced and is expected to be completed in the third quarter.
- PRB volumes are expected to improve on exit from the rain-affected second quarter shoulder season.
In recognition of the company's focus on value over volume, Peabody has tightened its annual PRB volume guidance range to 115 to 120 million tons.
In addition, Peabody continues to focus on its stated financial approach, including investing wisely and returning cash to shareholders.
Today's earnings call is scheduled for 10 a.m. CDT, and will be accompanied by a presentation available at PeabodyEnergy.com.

| (1) | Total Reporting Segment Costs and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Refer to the "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section in this document for definitions and reconciliations to the most comparable measures under U.S. GAAP. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (2) | Includes gains (losses) on certain surplus coal reserve and surface land sales, property management costs and revenues and the Q1 2018 gain of $20.6 million on the sale of certain surplus land assets in Queensland's Bowen Basin. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (3) | Includes income from equity affiliates (before the impact of related changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowance and amortization of basis difference), costs associated with post-mining activities, coal royalty expense, minimum charges on certain transportation-related contracts, the Q1 2018 gain of $7.1 million recognized on the sale of our interest in the Red Mountain Joint Venture and the Q1 2017 gain of $19.7 million recognized on the sale of Dominion Terminal Associates. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (4) | Revenues per Ton, Costs per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton are metrics used by management to measure each of our mining segment's operating performance. Revenues per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton are equal to revenues by segment and Adjusted EBITDA by segment, respectively, divided by segment tons sold. Costs per Ton is equal to Revenues 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 mining segment level. We consider all measures reported on a per ton basis to be operating/statistical measures; however, we include reconciliations of the related non-GAAP financial measures (Adjusted EBITDA and Total Reporting Segment Costs) in the "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section in this document. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (5) | Includes revenue-based production taxes and royalties; excludes depreciation, depletion and amortization; asset retirement obligation expenses; selling and administrative expenses; restructuring charges; asset impairment; coal inventory revaluation; take-or-pay contract-based intangible recognition; and certain other costs related to post-mining activities. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 1 Metallurgical coal sales volumes may range from ~55% - 65% PCI and ~35% - 45% coking coal (including semi-hard and semi-soft coking coals). Approximately 30% of seaborne coking sales may be priced on a spot basis, with the remainder linked to an index. Approximately 30% of seaborne PCI sales may be priced on a spot basis, with the remainder linked to the quarterly LV PCI benchmark. The company also has exposure to approximately 2 million tons of metallurgical coal related to the Middlemount Mine, a 50/50 joint venture accounted for in (Income) Loss from Equity Affiliates. |
| Peabody's North Goonyella Mine receives the PHCC index quoted price and the Coppabella Mine typically sets the LV PCI benchmark, with the remainder of products sold at discounts to these values based on coal qualities and properties. On a weighted-average basis across all metallurgical products, Peabody typically realizes approximately 85% - 90% of the PHCC index quoted price for its coking products, and 85% - 90% of the LV PCI benchmark price for its PCI products. |
| 2 A portion of Peabody's seaborne thermal coal products sell at or above the Newcastle index, with the remainder sold at discounts relative to the Newcastle index based on coal qualities and properties. On a weighted-average basis across all seaborne thermal products, Peabody expects to realize approximately 85% - 95% of the Newcastle index price. |
| 3 Assumes 2018 average A$ FX rate of $0.76. Cost ranges include sales-related cost, which will fluctuate based on realized prices. |
| 4 Sensitivities reflect approximate impacts of changes in variables on financial performance. When realized, actual impacts may differ significantly. |
| 5 As of June 30, 2018, Peabody had purchased average rate call options to manage market price volatility associated with the Australian dollar in aggregate notional amount of approximately AUD $0.9 billion with strike price levels ranging from $0.79 to $0.82 and settlement dates through Dec. 31, 2018, and AUD $0.2 billion aggregate notional amount with average strike price levels of $0.79 and settlement dates from Jan. 1, 2019 through March 31, 2019. Sensitivities provided are relative to an assumed average A$ FX exchange rate of $0.75 for the remainder of 2018. |
| 6 3Q – 4Q 2018 seaborne thermal priced position assumes recently announced JFY settlement of $110 per tonne carries through to committed tons linked to the JFY settlement. |
| Note 1: Peabody classifies its Australian Metallurgical or Thermal Mining segments based on the primary customer base and reserve type. A small portion of the coal mined by the Australian Metallurgical Mining segment is of a thermal grade and vice versa. Peabody may market some of its metallurgical coal products as a thermal product from time to time depending on industry conditions. Per ton metrics presented are non-GAAP measures. Due to the volatility and variability of certain items needed to reconcile these measures to their nearest GAAP measure, no reconciliation can be provided without unreasonable cost or effort. |
| Note 2: A sensitivity to changes in seaborne pricing should consider Peabody's estimated split of PCI and coking coal products, the ratio of PLV PCI benchmark to PLV HCC index quoted price, the weighted average discounts across all products to the applicable PLV HCC index quoted price or PLV PCI benchmark or Newcastle index prices, in addition to impacts on sales-related costs in Australia, and applicable conversions between short tons and metric tonnes as necessary. |
| Note 3: As of July 20, 2018 Peabody has approximately 121.7 million shares of common stock outstanding. On a fully diluted basis, Peabody has approximately 124.7 million shares of common stock. |
