Arch Resources Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

26.04.2022  |  PR Newswire
Reports another record quarterly earnings performance

Announces a quarterly dividend of $135.3 million, or $8.11 per share


ST. LOUIS, April 26, 2022 - Arch Resources Inc. (NYSE: ARCH) today reported net income of $271.9 million, or $12.89 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022, compared with a net loss of $6.0 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Arch had adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, accretion on asset retirement obligations (ARO), and non-operating expenses ("adjusted EBITDA") 1 of $321.0 million in the first quarter of 2022, which included a $15.5 million non-cash mark-to-market loss associated with its coal-hedging activities. This compares to $30.9 million of adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2021, which included a $0.5 million non-cash mark-to-market loss associated with its coal-hedging activities. Revenues totaled $867.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, versus $357.5 million in the prior-year quarter.

In the first quarter of 2022, Arch made significant progress on numerous strategic priorities and objectives:

  • Delivered record quarterly net income for the second straight quarter;
  • Achieved a record gross margin in its core metallurgical segment despite substantially lower than ratable shipment levels stemming from rail service disruptions;
  • Repaid $281.7 million of indebtedness, restoring the balance sheet to a net debt neutral position;
  • Reached $100 million, or nearly 80 percent of the targeted balance for its thermal mine reclamation fund, consistent with achieving fully funded status by Q3 2022; and
  • Announced a second quarter dividend of $135.3 million, or $8.11 per share, in connection with the recent relaunch of its capital return program.

"The Arch team executed at a high level during the first quarter, delivering record earnings despite significant rail-related challenges that constrained both coking and thermal coal shipments," said Paul A. Lang, Arch's CEO and president. "Based on this strong first quarter performance, and in accordance with our new capital return formula, the board has declared a quarterly dividend of $135.3 million, or $8.11 per share, equivalent to 50 percent of Arch's first quarter discretionary cash flow. We view this substantial dividend - the first under our relaunched capital return program - as powerful evidence of Arch's extraordinary cash-generating potential, which in turn sets the stage for further significant payments in coming quarters."

As previously announced, Arch plans to maintain at least $300 million of cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet, which it believes is prudent given the cyclical nature of coking coal markets. Because of the steps Arch has taken year-to-date in 2022 to reduce debt and build out its thermal mine reclamation fund, a portion of the cash generated in the first quarter will be preserved on the balance sheet to maintain targeted liquidity levels. The board continues to evaluate the optimal use of the discretionary cash remaining after the quarterly dividend payment.

"The board views our robust, multi-faceted capital return program as an appropriate way to reward stockholders for their steadfast support as we executed our strategic pivot towards steel and metallurgical markets and as we completed the buildout of Leer South," Lang said. "We view the new capital return model as balanced, durable and well-aligned with stockholder interests and preferences, and expect our capital return program to drive significant value for our stockholders going forward."

Capital Allocation Model

In February 2022, Arch announced a new capital allocation model that includes the return to stockholders of 50 percent of the prior quarter's discretionary cash flow - defined as cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures and contributions to the thermal mine reclamation fund - via a variable quarterly cash dividend in conjunction with a fixed quarterly cash dividend.

Arch intends to retain the remaining 50 percent of the prior quarter's discretionary cash flow for use in share buybacks, the repurchase of potentially dilutive securities, special dividends, and/or capital preservation.

The second quarter dividend payment of $8.11 per share - which includes a fixed component of $0.25 per share and a variable component of $7.86 per share - is payable on June 15, 2022 to stockholders of record on May 31, 2022.

Arch has $222.6 million of authorization remaining under its existing share repurchase program.

Financial and Liquidity Update

Arch ended the first quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $318.7 million and total liquidity of $386.0 million.

During the quarter, Arch repaid $281.7 million of its outstanding indebtedness. With these repayments, Arch ended the quarter with just $322.8 million of debt and a near-equivalent amount of cash and cash equivalents.

"Our fortified and conservative balance sheet provides a strong financial foundation for our capital return program, while ensuring that we have the financial flexibility to manage through future market downturns," said Matthew C. Giljum, Arch's chief financial officer.

Strategic Plan for Legacy Thermal Assets

During the first quarter, Arch continued to deliver on its dual objectives of driving forward with an accelerated reclamation plan at its legacy thermal operations, while simultaneously harvesting cash from these assets. During the quarter, the legacy thermal segment delivered $100.5 million in segment-level adjusted EBITDA while expending just $4.0 million in capital. Over the past 22 quarters, Arch's thermal operations have contributed more than $1 billion in segment-level adjusted EBITDA, while expending just $114.0 million in capital.

Since the beginning of 2021, Arch has reduced the asset retirement obligation at its Powder River Basin operations by $39.4 million, or more than 20 percent - from $189.8 million at year-end 2020 to $150.4 million at March 31, 2022. Additionally, Arch has created and implemented a thermal mine reclamation fund that it is using to pre-fund and defease the long-term mine closure and reclamation obligations of its Powder River Basin operations. Arch contributed $20 million to this fund in the fourth quarter of 2021, another $20 million in the first quarter of 2022, and an incremental $60 million in April 2022, bringing the current balance of the fund to $100 million. The company is targeting a funding level of $130 million, in line with the asset retirement obligation at the Black Thunder mine, by July 2022.

"We are capitalizing on this period of historically strong thermal coal prices by pre-funding the long-term closure obligations of our legacy Powder River Basin operations," Giljum said. "In doing so, we are setting the stage for strong, continued cash generation from these assets even as we move forward with winding them down in a careful and responsible manner."

Operational Update

"During the first quarter, our core metallurgical segment executed effectively and well despite rail-related volume constraints, inflationary pressures and higher sales-sensitive costs," said John T. Drexler, Arch's chief operating officer. "As a result, we were able to capitalize on historically strong coking coal pricing and deliver a record gross margin."

During the first quarter, the metallurgical segment's realized price increased by nearly 30 percent on a sequential basis, reflecting continuing strength in global metallurgical coal markets. That increase - coupled with solid cost management - drove a nearly 50 percent improvement in cash margin per ton. During the quarter, the metallurgical segment only received around 60 percent of the trains it needed to move its coking coal output to market. As a result, Arch ended the quarter with nearly 1 million tons of coking coal in mine and port stockpiles. During the second quarter, Arch expects metallurgical sales volumes to increase by 50 percent on a sequential basis even with the ongoing rail challenges, and anticipates further improvements in shipment levels in the second half of 2022. "While rail service is improving, it remains well below the levels needed to support the full productive capacity of our mining operations," Drexler said. "That is particularly unfortunate given the urgent, global need for both natural resources and energy products as a result of the significant and ongoing trade flow disruptions."

The average sales realization for the thermal segment increased more than 20 percent sequentially, driving a greater than 50 percent increase in average cash margin per ton.

Market Update

Global metallurgical markets remain exceptionally well-supported at present, with Arch's primary product, High-Vol A coking coal, currently being assessed at $470 per metric ton on the U.S. East Coast. Global steel markets have proven relatively resilient as well, with steel prices in both Europe and North America trading at elevated levels and the outlook in Asia buttressed by the resumption of integrated steel capacity additions.

Arch views global supply constraints as a significant driver in buoyant coking coal markets. Even after a sustained period of high pricing, global coking coal supply continues to lag due to a combination of operational and logistical challenges along with years of under-investment. Similarly, the pipeline of new coking coal projects remains depressed. In addition, there continues to be significant uncertainty surrounding Russian metallurgical coal exports, which constitute roughly 15 percent of the seaborne market.

Strong thermal coal demand and pricing is also acting to support global coking coal markets. Thermal coal is currently trading at per-ton prices of $300 or more in both the Pacific and Atlantic basins, which is spurring the crossover of lower-quality coking coals into thermal markets.

Looking Ahead

"Even with persistent rail challenges, Arch is exceptionally well-positioned to capitalize on constructive global coking coal market dynamics as the year progresses," Lang said. "We anticipate a significant increase in our financial results in the second quarter given the highly favorable pricing environment along with the anticipated step-up in coking coal volumes, and we also expect continuing strength in the year's second half as shipment levels normalize and as we have the opportunity to monetize our high coking coal inventories. These improvements should serve to further support the value to stockholders of our new capital allocation model."

"With our world-class metallurgical asset base, premium High-Vol A product slate, industry-leading ESG performance, and top-tier marketing and logistics expertise, we expect to generate substantial, long-term value for our stockholders through our new capital return program, while continuing to position the company to benefit from sustained global economic development and the world's ongoing transition to a low-carbon economy."

Note: The company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP Segment cash cost 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 transportation costs, which are a component of GAAP cost of sales. Management is unable to predict without unreasonable efforts transportation costs due to uncertainty as to the end market and FOB point for uncommitted sales volumes and the final shipping point for export shipments. In addition, the impact of hedging activity related to commodity purchases that do not receive hedge accounting and idle and administrative costs that are not included in a reportable segment are additional reconciling items for Segment cash cost per ton sold. Management is unable to predict without unreasonable efforts the impact of hedging activity related to commodity purchases that do not receive hedge accounting due to fluctuations in commodity prices, which are difficult to forecast due to their inherent volatility. These amounts have historically varied 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. Idle and administrative costs that are not included in a reportable segment are expected to be between $10 million and $20 million in 2022.

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 statements 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.

Non-GAAP Segment cash cost per ton sold is calculated as segment cash cost of coal sales divided by segment tons sold. 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 statements 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.
