Arch Resources Reports Second Quarter 2020 Results

28.07.2020  |  PR Newswire
Achieves another strong cost performance in its core metallurgical segment
Makes further significant progress at Leer South, which remains on time and on budget
Drives forward with staffing reductions expected to deliver more than $40 million in annual savings

ST. LOUIS, July 28, 2020 - Arch Resources Inc. (NYSE: ARCH) today reported a net loss of $49.3 million, or $3.26 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2020, compared with net income of $62.8 million, or $3.53 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Arch had negative adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, accretion on asset retirement obligations, and non-operating expenses ("adjusted EBITDA") 1 of $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2020, which includes a $0.1 million non-cash mark-to-market gain associated with the company's coal-hedging activities and excludes a $14.5 million gain associated with additional insurance proceeds from a previously disclosed equipment loss at Mountain Laurel. This compares to $105.6 million of adjusted EBITDA recorded in the second quarter of 2019, which included an $8.4 million non-cash mark-to-market gain associated with the company's coal-hedging activities. Revenues totaled $319.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, versus $570.2 million in the prior-year quarter.

"The Arch team executed at a high level in the second quarter, quickly adjusting to rapidly changing market conditions while taking extensive steps to protect the safety and health of their communities, their co-workers and themselves," said Paul A. Lang, Arch's chief executive officer and president. "We believe that, with our top-tier metallurgical assets, the company is well-equipped to manage through the current period of global economic disruption, and equally well-positioned to capitalize on the metallurgical market recovery as it takes shape."

Arch has implemented rigorous social distancing and hygiene-focused protocols and policies across the organization to reduce virus-related risks to its employees. While the pandemic has pressured commodity markets and precipitated indirect issues for the organization, including customer deferrals, Arch has incurred relatively modest direct impacts on its employee base so far. To date, Arch and its subsidiary operations have had a total of 14 employees test positive for the virus, with 10 of the 14 having returned to work and the others scheduled to do so shortly.

"During the quarter, our coking coal franchise maintained its strong operational momentum, achieving highly competitive unit costs despite lower-than-anticipated volume levels associated with customer deferrals," Lang said. "At the same time, we continued to make excellent progress on the build-out of the world-class Leer South mine, where we are laying the foundation for future value creation and growth. We view our ability to drive forward with this transformational project – even in the current macro environment – as a powerful differentiator in the marketplace."

While Arch's legacy thermal segments posted negative margins – the result of low natural gas prices, ongoing increases in subsidized renewables output, and depressed power demand – the company has moved quickly to adjust production rates and cost structures to match the weak demand and lower volume levels.

"Even with the uncertainty in the broader market environment, we expect a solid metallurgical shipping schedule and another strong cost performance from our coking coal portfolio in the year's back half," Lang said. "Likewise, we believe higher volume levels and ongoing cost control efforts should lead to an improved financial performance from our legacy thermal assets in the second half of 2020."

Financial and liquidity update

Shortly after the second quarter ended – on July 2, 2020 – Arch completed a $53.1 million bond offering in the U.S. tax-exempt market through the West Virginia Economic Development Authority. The transaction was more than 10 times oversubscribed, resulting in a highly competitive fixed interest rate of 5.00 percent.

"We appreciate the market's strong expression of confidence in Arch Resources and its long-term outlook," said Matthew C. Giljum, Arch's chief financial officer. "The proceeds from this bond offering will support the ongoing construction of Leer South – which we view as transformational for the company's future cash-generating potential – while helping to ensure that we maintain ample liquidity during the current period of market uncertainty."

In keeping with the requirements of the tax-exempt issuance, proceeds from the offering will be used to fund the construction of the mine's preparation plant and other facilities associated with waste management. Arch received approximately $30 million of cash upon closing – reflecting the amount of qualified expenditures already completed – and will receive the remainder over the next several quarters as work continues.

In addition, second quarter cash flows were augmented by a total of $66 million related to accelerated alternative minimum tax recoveries; a second tranche of insurance proceeds from the previously disclosed equipment loss at Mountain Laurel; receipts from the previously disclosed land settlement with the federal government involving 1970s-era preference right lease applications (PRLAs) in New Mexico; and the deferral of certain payroll taxes associated with the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

Arch ended the second quarter with $217 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on the balance sheet, and total available liquidity of $303 million, which excludes the approximately $30 million of proceeds received from the tax-exempt bond offering at the time of closing on July 2.

Arch remains sharply focused on cash preservation, and has taken steps to reduce overhead and labor costs significantly and to further trim its 2020 maintenance capital budget, which at the midpoint now stands at $60 million – down 33 percent from the company's initial 2020 guidance mid-point of $90 million issued in February.

In the second half of the year, Arch also expects cash generation to benefit from an incremental $30 to $35 million in additional receipts associated with the land settlement as well as ongoing payroll tax deferrals. In addition, Arch expects to receive proceeds from the recently completed tax-exempt bond offering in the back half of 2020 of approximately $15 million, reflecting additional qualified capital investments scheduled for completion in the third and fourth quarters.

"We continue to view our solid financial footing as a critical competitive advantage in the marketplace, and remain sharply focused on protecting our liquidity position as we work to bring our cash-flow enhancing Leer South project into production," Giljum said. "Toward that end, we plan to continue to evaluate additional sources of capital during this ongoing period of uncertainty, as evidenced by our recently completed tax-exempt bond offering. Additionally, we expect our recent cost-cutting initiatives to benefit our cash flow in the second half of the year, which should further strengthen our financial position."

Operational Update

"During the quarter, our core metallurgical segment – led by our flagship Leer mine – again showcased its first-quartile cost structure, even as we worked to address customer deferrals totaling more than 300,000 tons," said John T. Drexler, Arch's chief operating officer. "We continue to work closely with our strong and diverse customer base to preserve the value of our carefully cultivated contract book, and expect to make up the majority of the deferred tons during the remainder of 2020. As a result, we anticipate a significant step-up in coking coal shipments in the year's second half, along with strong operational execution and a continuation of our best-in-class cost performance."

While Arch's two thermal segments reported negative cash margins for the quarter, the company moved quickly to adjust its thermal segment cost structures to reflect reduced volume levels. During the second quarter, Arch conducted voluntary separation programs (VSPs) at each of its thermal operations, resulting in the elimination of approximately 200 positions, and bringing the number of corporate and thermal subsidiary positions eliminated to date during 2020 to more than 250. This streamlining process is expected to result in annual cost savings of more than $40 million. The company took a one-time, $7.4 million charge in the second quarter – in addition to the $5.8 million charge it took in the first quarter – related to the VSPs. All told, Arch has now reduced its combined corporate and thermal workforce by approximately 560 positions – or roughly 25 percent – over the course of the past 12 months, via VSPs and normal attrition.

"We view these adjustments as absolutely necessary given the intense competitive pressure from low-priced natural gas and subsidized renewables," Drexler said. "At the same time, we are pleased that we have been able to rightsize staffing levels and streamline the organization in a manner that serves both the company's needs and the personal interests of our employees."

During the second quarter, Arch's metallurgical segment shipped 1.3 million tons of coking coal and achieved per-ton costs of $61.95, despite the cost impact of the previously discussed customer deferrals. The segment's cash margins declined to $14.22 per ton, due principally to the impact of market weakness on both price realizations and volumes. Looking ahead to the year's second half, Arch expects increased shipment levels to support an improved segment contribution and a continued strong cost performance.

Powder River Basin shipments declined significantly in the second quarter – to 10.6 million tons – as low natural gas prices and weak power demand eroded domestic thermal coal requirements significantly. The lower volume levels exerted significant upward pressure on per-ton costs and contributed to a negative cash margin of $0.56 per ton. Arch believes that higher volume levels – coupled with ongoing cost reduction efforts – should result in an improved segment performance in the second half of 2020.

Mining complexes included in this segment are Coal-Mac, Viper and West Elk. Coal-Mac is included through

December 13, 2019, the date of divestiture.

In the Other Thermal segment, difficult conditions in both domestic and seaborne markets – coupled with a month-long shutdown at the Viper mine due to the failure of the mine's primary customer to take deliveries – led to a cash loss during the quarter. The segment's performance should benefit from steadier operating rates and a modest recovery in domestic demand in the year's second half.

Leer South

"Our transformational growth project at Leer South remains on time and on budget," Drexler said. "By maintaining our forward progress during this period of economic uncertainty and supply rationalization, we believe we are greatly increasing the likelihood that we will be able to ramp the mine's initial longwall production into a strengthening coking coal market environment."

Longwall production at Leer South is expected to commence in the third quarter of 2021. When fully operational, the mine is expected to produce up to four million tons of High-Vol A coking coal annually for sale into global metallurgical markets, and to operate in tandem with Arch's flagship Leer mine for the next 20 years or more.

Arch expended approximately $46 million on Leer South's development during the second quarter, and reaffirmed that it expects to invest a total of $360 million to $390 million in total on the mine's buildout. At June 30, 2020, the company had expended a total of $211 million on the project, which is roughly 56 percent of the total projected spend at the mid-point of guidance.

Market conditions

After a very challenging first half, global steel markets appear to be shifting slowly into recovery mode. While steel prices remain under pressure, steel producers have recently moved to restart select, previously idled blast furnaces, and mill utilization rates are inching up as well, with the average capacity factor at U.S. steel mills approaching 59 percent this past week. Automotive plants – which constitute a core market for high-quality, primary steel – have resumed operations in Europe and North America, and Chinese automotive output was up in May on a year-over-year basis. In fact, the Chinese steel industry, which is the source of more than half the world's steel output, now appears to be in expansion mode, with 2020 steel production on course to exceed 2019 levels, according to the World Steel Association.

Meanwhile, coking coal markets remain at depressed levels. The assessed price of premium High-Vol A coking coal – Arch's principal product – is now trading at $109 per metric ton, $4 above its recent low-water mark. While global demand remains muted, sales inquiries appear to be picking up in specific regions. Chinese seaborne coking coal imports, for instance – excluding land-based Mongolian shipments – are up nearly 70 percent year-to-date.

On the supply side, high-cost production is being rationalized at a fairly brisk pace, particularly in North America, although more cuts will be needed to balance the market. U.S. coking coal production was down an estimated 15 percent in the first quarter of 2020 when compared to the second quarter of 2019, just before coking coal prices started to retrace appreciably. Moreover, Australia is struggling to maintain last year's production levels in the face of weak pricing, operating disruptions at certain mines, and limited capital investment in recent years, and Canadian producers are guiding to significantly lower 2020 production as well.

Thermal markets remain intensely challenging. Arch expects U.S. thermal demand to decline by more than 130 million tons in 2020, following a nearly 100-million-ton decline in 2019. Exacerbating the situation, U.S. power plants hold an estimated four months of inventory in stockpiles at present – likely an all-time high. Arch expects the downward trend in U.S. thermal demand to continue as incremental combined cycle gas and subsidized renewable capacity comes online, and as coal plant retirements continue. At the same time, both Atlantic and Pacific basin export markets remain closed to virtually all U.S. output given current demand and pricing levels. As discussed, Arch is taking aggressive actions across the organization to drive down costs and enhance the competitiveness of its thermal coal in the marketplace.

Reconciliation of NON-GAAP Measures

(In thousands, except per ton data)







Included in the accompanying release, we have disclosed certain non-GAAP measures as defined by Regulation G.
The following reconciles these items to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.







Non-GAAP Segment coal sales per ton sold


Non-GAAP Segment coal sales per ton sold is calculated as segment coal sales revenues divided by segment tons sold. Segment coal sales revenues are adjusted for transportation costs, and may be adjusted for other items that, due to generally accepted accounting principles, are classified in "other income" on the consolidated statement of operations, but relate to price protection on the sale of coal. Segment coal sales per ton sold is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We believe segment coal sales per ton sold provides useful information to investors as it better reflects our revenue for the quality of coal sold and our operating results by including all income from coal sales. The adjustments made to arrive at these measures are significant in understanding and assessing our financial condition. Therefore, segment coal sales revenues should not be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to coal sales revenues under generally accepted accounting principles.

Segment cash cost of coal sales is adjusted for transportation costs, and may be adjusted for other items that, due to generally accepted accounting principles, are classified in "other income" on the consolidated statement of operations, but relate directly to the costs incurred to produce coal. Segment cash cost per ton sold is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We believe segment cash cost per ton sold better reflects our controllable costs and our operating results by including all costs incurred to produce coal. The adjustments made to arrive at these measures are significant in understanding and assessing our financial condition. Therefore, segment cash cost of coal sales should not be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to cost of sales under generally accepted accounting principles.

Adjusted EBITDA












Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to the Company before the effect of net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, accretion on asset retirement obligations and nonoperating expenses. Adjusted EBITDA may also be adjusted for items that may not reflect the trend of future results by excluding transactions that are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance.


Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant in understanding and assessing our financial condition. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, cash flows from operations or as a measure of our profitability, liquidity or performance under generally accepted accounting principles. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA to measure the operating performance of its segments and allocate resources to the segments. Furthermore, analogous measures are used by industry analysts and investors to evaluate our operating performance. Investors should be aware that our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The table below shows how we calculate Adjusted EBITDA.
