Forward guidance
The company expects a record fourth quarter in 2022 based on being fully sold out for the year. Looking ahead to 2023, the company anticipates almost doubling 2023 production and expects to place over 60% of its coal into the export markets.
Tailwinds
- The plant will materially lower our cash costs from the Berwind Complex by avoiding millions of dollars of annual trucking costs.
- It will similarly reduce logistical challenges by elimination of a 25-mile truck haul to our Knox Creek preparation plant.
- Our overall mine costs across all operations came down around 8% this quarter and have again positioned us as a peer cost leader in the Central Appalachian markets.
- We recently processed our first tons of coal at our Berwind preparation plant.
- In late September, we closed on the accretive Maben low vol reserve acquisition, which we anticipate being a meaningful earnings contributor in 2023.
Headwinds
- Results are below what we would have hoped given the combination of the unfortunate Berwind ignition event in early July.
- Declines in seaborne coal pricing
- Continued macro pressure on worldwide steel demand
- Ongoing logistical rail challenges
- Macro headwinds in the overall economic climate
