Arch Resources Provides Update on Third Quarter 2023 Results, Revised Full Year 2023 Guidance, and Third Quarter 2023 Conference Call Details

02.10.2023  |  PR Newswire

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 2, 2023 - Arch Resources Inc. (NYSE: ARCH) today announced that it now expects coking coal sales volumes for the third quarter of 2023 to remain generally in line with those reported in the second quarter of 2023, due primarily to ongoing challenges mining in the first longwall district at its Leer South mine. In keeping with this revision to sales volume expectations, Arch is revising its full year 2023 guidance for coking coal sales volumes to 8.6 to 8.9 million tons and its average metallurgical cash cost guidance to $88 to $91 per ton.

"While we remain enthusiastic about Leer South's long-term outlook, the conditions in the first longwall district - which, as previously discussed, represented the most capital-efficient access point for the Lower Kittanning reserve base - continue to constrain advance rates," said Paul A. Lang, Arch's chief executive officer and president. "In light of these conditions, we are moderating our volume and cost expectations for the balance of the year, even as we continue to benefit from a strengthening coking coal price environment." Despite underperforming relative to initial expectations, Leer South has now generated approximately $470 million in segment-level adjusted EBITDA since its startup, versus an initial capital investment of approximately $400 million.

In addition, Arch preliminarily expects adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 to be approximately 10 percent lower than the total reported for the second quarter of 2023. Arch expects discretionary cash flow - defined as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures - for the third quarter of 2023 to be more than half the total of $150.7 million achieved in the second quarter of 2023, which included a working capital reduction of $62.5 million. These amounts are estimates, actual third quarter 2023 financial results will be released on October 26.
