Ramaco Resources, Inc.
財務報表未審計的附註
備註1—業務和展示基礎
Ramaco Resources,Inc.(下文中簡稱「公司」、「Ramaco」、「我們」或「我們的」)是一家成立於2016年10月的特拉華州註冊公司。我們的總公司和執行辦公室位於肯塔基州列克星頓,業務辦公室分佈在西弗吉尼亞州夏利斯頓和懷俄明州謝里登。我們是南西弗吉尼亞和西南弗吉尼亞地區高品質、低成本冶金煤的運營商和開發商。我們還控制着懷俄明州謝里登附近的礦產儲量,作爲公司關於潛在的稀土元素和重要礦產的開採計劃的一部分,以及煤炭轉化爲碳基產品和材料的潛在商業化。
報告範圍這些中期財務報表是未經審計的,並根據SEC關於中期財務報告的規定編制。某些披露已在這些財務報表中進行了概述或省略。因此,它們不包括所有根據美國通用會計準則(「GAAP」)對完整合並財務報表和相關附註所要求的所有信息和附註,應結合我們截至2023年12月31日的年度10-k表格中載明的審計合併財務報表和相關附註一起閱讀。
據公司看法,隨附的未經審計簡明合併財務報表包括所有必要的調整,僅包括正常循環調整,以便公正陳述截至2024年9月30日公司財務狀況以及所呈現的所有時期的經營業績和現金流量。在編制隨附的財務報表時,管理層已作出影響簡明合併財務報表和相關事項披露的報告金額的某些估計和假設。實際結果可能與這些估計有所不同。中期時段的結果未必指示年度結果。合併實體之間的內部往來餘額和交易已予以消除。
在截至2024年9月30日的九個月內,公司的重大會計政策沒有發生重大變化。
最近的會計聲明2023年11月,財務會計準則委員會(「FASB」)發佈了會計準則更新(「ASU」)2023-07號。 分部報告(主題 280):報告服務部門(主題 280)變更披露方式,通過升級對意義重大的分部費用的披露來改進分部報告披露要求。該準則適用於 2023 年 12 月 15 日之後的財年和 2024 年 12 月 15 日之後的財年間隔期。該準則必須適用於財務報表中呈現的所有期間的追溯。該公司目前正在評估該標準對合並財務報表的影響。 (「ASU 2023-07」)。ASU 2023-07中的修訂要求增加了與上市實體的報告分部有關的額外披露,並增加了大多數分部披露的頻率。ASU要求的額外披露包括定期向首席經營決策者(「CODM」)提供的重要分部費用,並納入分部利潤或損失的計量內,CODM的頭銜和職位,以及CODM如何使用報告的分部利潤或損失衡量績效和分配資源的解釋,以及用來協調分部收入、重要費用和報告的利潤或損失的其他分部項目的金額和構成。ASU還擴展了中期披露要求,使幾乎所有年度定量分部披露都將在中期基礎上進行,並要求只有一個可報告分部的實體提供所有未在主要財務報表中明顯的分部披露,包括重要分部費用,與管理評估績效的方法一致。ASU 2023-07自Ramaco的2024年度財務報表起生效,並以後每季度進行。要求進行追溯應用。公司目前正在評估ASU的影響;但是,增加的披露可能在採用後發生。
2023年12月,FASB發佈了ASU 2023-09,所得稅(主題740):改進所得稅披露。該標準要求上市的業務實體在每年披露稅率調節表的特定類別,併爲滿足數量門限的調節項目提供其他信息(如果這些調節項目的影響相當於或大於將稅前收入(或損失)與適用的法定所得稅率相乘所得金額的5%)。它還要求所有實體每年披露按聯邦、州和外國稅種分解的所支付的所得稅(扣除退款),以及按所支付的所得稅(扣除退款)在個別司法管轄區分解的金額,當所支付的所得稅(扣除退款)相當於或大於所支付的總所得稅(扣除退款)的5%時。最後,該標準取消了要求所有實體披露未識別稅務負債餘額在未來12個月內合理可能變動範圍的性質和估計,或聲明無法估算範圍的要求。該標準對公司自2026年1月1日開始的年度適用。可以提前採納該標準。該標準應以前瞻性基礎應用。允許追溯適用。公司目前正在評估該標準可能對其財務報表產生的影響。 《ASU 2023-09》中的修訂要求報告實體披露年度所支付的淨所得稅(扣除退款),按聯邦、州和外國稅額細分,併爲達到或超過淨所得稅總額5%的個別司法管轄區提供額外的細分信息。《ASU 2023-09》還要求上市公司在其年度稅率協調錶中披露有關聯邦、州和外國所得稅的額外類別信息,並在某些類別的情況下提供更多信息。
9
定量門檻已達到。ASU還將要求披露金額 and 在年度利率調節表中以百分比爲單位,而不是金額 or 百分比,並將取消與不確定稅務事項和未確認遞延稅債務相關的某些現有披露要求。ASU 2023-09自Ramaco的2025年年度財務報表起生效,並可前瞻性地適用於僅提供2025年所需的所得稅披露,或通過爲所有提出的週期提供修訂後的披露來追溯性地提供。允許提前採納。公司目前正在評估ASU的影響;但是,在採納後,公司很可能會在2025年的年度財務報表中前瞻性地提供額外披露。
2024年11月,即財務報表日期之後,FASB發佈了ASU 2024-03。 收入表格-綜合收入報告-費用細分披露(專題220-40):收入表格費用的細分 (「ASU 2024-03」)。 ASU 2024-03的修改要求上市公司在財務報表附註中披露,包括關於某些成本和費用的特定信息,包括庫存購買、員工薪酬以及折舊、攤銷和減值費用等方面在其中的費用的每個標題。ASU 2024-03自公司2027年起的年度財務報表開始生效,並隨後每季度生效。可以提前採納,並且修訂可能按照前瞻性適用於生效日期後的報告期間,或者按照回顧性適用於財務報表中呈現的所有期間。公司目前正在評估ASU可能對其披露產生的影響程度。

未歸屬限制性股票獎勵有權在與普通股相同的基礎上獲得不可沒收的股息;因此,就計算每股收益而言,未歸屬的限制性股票被視爲參與性證券。在2023年第二季度首次分配b類普通股之前,該公司合併顯示了其普通股和未歸屬限制性股票的每股收益,因爲這兩種工具的參與基礎相同,由此產生的每股收益通常相同。從兩類法開始,公司分別報告A類和b類普通股持有人分配給未歸屬限制性股票獎勵持有人的淨收益。
出於會計目的,B類淨收益的參與權實質上是自由決定的,其基礎是公司董事會有權在未經股東批准的情況下隨時自行決定增加或修改支出分配政策、重新定義CORE資產以及重新確定CORE的每噸使用費。因此,除追蹤股票在此期間申報的實際股息外,公司淨收益的任何金額均不得分配給b類用於計算每股收益。但是,在結束的三個月零九個月中
攤薄後每股收益是使用庫存股法計算股票期權和限制性股票單位的。對於績效股票單位,獎勵首先根據臨時可發行股票指導方針進行評估,該指導方針要求確定在報告期結束時應急期結束時股票是否可以發行。對於根據績效股票單位獎勵確定可發行的股票,然後使用庫存股方法來確定獎勵的稀釋影響(如果有)。如前所述,未歸屬限制性股票獎勵被視爲潛在的普通股和參與證券,使用更具稀釋性的庫存股法或兩類方法將其包含在攤薄後的每股收益中。由於這些獎勵的分紅是
在截至2024年9月30日的三個月中,由於上述分配的淨虧損,A類普通股的攤薄後每股收益不包括所有未償還的潛在普通股獎勵,因此,納入任何潛在普通股將具有反稀釋作用。不包括的A類普通股獎勵是

項目2. 管理層對財務控制項和運營結果的討論與分析
以下對我們財務狀況和運營結果的討論與分析應與我們年報中包含的「管理層對財務狀況和運營結果的討論與分析」一起閱讀,以及在本季度報告的其他地方出現的基本報表及相關附註。以下討論包含反映我們未來計劃、估計、信念和預期表現的前瞻性聲明。這些前瞻性聲明取決於可能超出我們控制範圍的事件、風險和不確定性。我們提醒您,我們的實際結果可能與這些前瞻性聲明中討論的內容有重大差異。導致或促成這種差異的因素在本季度報告的其他地方進行了討論,特別是在「關於前瞻性聲明的警示說明」以及我們年報和本季度報告中的「項目1A. 風險因素」標題下,所有這些因素都很難預測。鑑於這些風險、不確定性和假設,所討論的前瞻性事件可能不會發生。除非適用法律另有要求,否則我們不承擔公開更新任何前瞻性聲明的義務。
概述
我們是在西弗吉尼亞州南部和維吉尼亞州西南部運營和開發高質量、低成本冶金煤的運營商。我們的開發組合主要包括以下資產:Elk Creek、Berwind、Knox Creek和Maben。我們相信這些資產各自具有地質和物流優勢,使我們的煤炭成爲對國內客戶基礎、北美高爐鋼鐵廠和焦化廠,以及國際冶金煤消費者交付成本最低的美國冶金煤之一。我們還在懷俄明州Sheridan附近控制礦產儲備,作爲公司關於潛在回收稀土元素和關鍵礦物的舉措,以及煤炭轉化爲碳基產品和材料的潛在商業化的一部分。
我們主要的營業收入來源於冶金煤的銷售。我們是一家純粹的冶金煤公司,擁有5900萬噸的儲備和111900萬噸的高質量冶金煤的可測量和指示資源噸。我們的計劃是繼續開發現有資產,並在未來幾年內將年產量增加到約700萬噸的冶金煤,這取決於市場情況、許可和中期內的額外資本支出。我們可能會收購繼續關注具有優勢地質和降低成本的儲備或製造行業基礎設施。
冶金煤業務的整體前景取決於多種因素,如定價、監管不確定性和全球經濟狀況。美國的煤炭消費和生產受多種市場動態和趨勢的驅動,包括美國和全球經濟、美元相對於其他貨幣的強度以及生產削減的加速。此外,相比於國內鋼鐵生產,鍊鋼廠在美國以外的地區更爲普遍,從而創造了對冶金煤出口的需求。
由於世界某些地區經濟增長受限以及境外衝突持續,全球冶金煤市場在2024年出現了放緩。全球鋼鐵市場經歷了較慢的增長,尤其是在中國,導致中國鋼鐵出口水平升高。這些條件導致鋼鐵公司減少自身生產,並降低他們願意支付的冶金煤原料價格。從長期來看,公司相信,全球對新焦練煤生產能力的投資有限,以及最終經濟增長的恢復將整體支持焦練煤市場。
在2024年前九個月,我們銷售了290萬噸煤,確認了49540萬美元的營業收入。在這個金額中,33%的營業收入來自於北美市場的銷售,包括加拿大,67%的營業收入來自於出口市場的銷售。在2023年同一時期,我們銷售了250萬噸煤,確認了49080萬美元的營業收入,其中34%來自於北美市場的銷售,包括加拿大,66%來自於出口市場的銷售。向出口市場的銷售,通常包括基於指數的定價,通常對價格的變動更爲敏感。公司的出口沒有因爲最近的嚴重天氣事件或美國東海岸港口的碼頭工人勞動爭議而受到實質性延誤或其他影響。
21
截至2024年9月30日,公司在固定銷售價格合同中擁有約170萬噸的未履行業績義務,平均價格爲每噸151美元,不包括運費,以及在基於指數的定價機制下的160萬噸。公司預計在2024年第四季度將滿足約36%的這些承諾,在2025年將滿足63%的這些承諾,在2026年滿足剩餘的1%。在基本報表日期之後,公司獲得了額外約70萬噸的銷售承諾。
公司繼續評估其在懷俄明州的潛在稀土和關鍵礦產存入資金,並在初步礦山開發及相關化學、冶金和礦物學測試方面取得了進展。目前進行的分析表明,稀土元素的含量較高,以及銦和鍺等關鍵礦產的顯著濃度。公司預計將在今年晚些時候完成整體商業機會的技術經濟分析,並計劃在2025年中至晚些時候開始施工一個示範加工設施。我們稀土元素勘探目標目前處於勘探階段,不代表,並不應被解釋爲,根據《證劵法》第1300子部分使用的礦產資源或礦儲備。公司還繼續推進新的碳產品技術,目標是商業化使用煤的產品,以實現改進的經濟和環保母基方式。

Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
Revenue. Coal sales revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $167.4 million, approximately 10% lower than the same period in 2023 driven by the negative impact of pricing offset partially by the 3% increase in tons sold. The increase in tons sold occurred in export markets, which increased 13% but were offset partially by the decrease in North America volumes. Revenue per ton sold decreased 13% from $188 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $164 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and was driven by the variability in index-based pricing for export sales. Revenue per ton sold (FOB mine), a non-GAAP measure which excludes transportation revenues and demurrage, also decreased 13% from $157 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $136 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures later in Item 2 for more information regarding this measure. The decrease in the Company’s revenue per ton sold measures was due to the decrease in metallurgical coal prices as U.S. metallurgical coal indices continued to fall in the third quarter of 2024 by an average of 7% due to the macroeconomic conditions discussed earlier. We expect metallurgical coal prices to remain volatile in the near term.
There are no revenues from rare earth and critical minerals at this time.
Cost of sales. Our cost of coal sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $134.7 million, approximately 7% lower than the same period in 2023 despite the 3% increase in tons sold discussed above. Cost of sales per ton sold decreased 9% from $145 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $132 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Cash cost per ton sold (FOB mine), a non-GAAP measure which excludes transportation costs, alternative mineral development costs, and idle mine costs, decreased 10% from $113 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $102 per ton for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures later in Item 2 for more information regarding this measure. Mine costs for the third quarter of 2024 benefited from efficiencies gained from increased production versus the same period in 2023.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense totaled $17.8 million and $14.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The increase year-to-year was related to $1.3 million of additional amortization for the Knox Creek Jawbone mine, which is due to the closure of the mine, as well as the general increases in plant and equipment and production versus 2023.
24
Selling, general, and administrative. Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $12.9 million and $11.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The $1.5 million increase in 2024 was primarily due to the increase in stock-based compensation expense.
Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense), net was ($0.1) million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $11.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Other income, net in the third quarter of 2023 was due primarily to recognition of the $7.8 million legal verdict for contract (compensatory) damages related to the 2018 Elk Creek silo failure as well as the receipt of $3.0 million of insurance proceeds related to the methane ignition that occurred at our Berwind complex in 2022.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net was $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease in 2024 was largely due to the repayment in full of related-party debt in the fourth quarter of 2023 associated with the financing of the acquisition of Ramaco Coal from Yorktown Partners. Interest expense related to this financing was $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Income tax expense (benefit). The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 was 9% and 22%, respectively, excluding the impact of discrete items. The primary differences from the federal statutory rate of 21% are related to state taxes, non-deductible expenses, the foreign-derived intangible income deduction, and depletion expense for income tax purposes.
Earnings (loss) per share. Refer to Note 10 of Part I, Item 1 for information regarding earnings per share calculations for Class A and Class B common stock.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
Revenue. Coal sales revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $495.4 million, approximately 1% higher than the same period in 2023 due to the increase in tons sold, which was mostly offset by the negative impact of pricing. The 16% increase in tons sold occurred in both North America and export markets, with export volumes increasing by 20% and North America volumes increasing by 10%, and was aided by the Company’s increased capacity for production achieved during late 2023. Revenue per ton sold decreased 13% from $199 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $173 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and was driven by the variability in index-based pricing for export sales. Revenue per ton sold (FOB mine), a non-GAAP measure which excludes transportation revenues and demurrage, decreased 14% from $169 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $145 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures later in Item 2 for more information regarding this measure. U.S. metallurgical coal price indices have fallen by roughly 32% on a year-to-date basis driven by the macroeconomic conditions discussed previously. We expect metallurgical coal prices to remain volatile in the near term.
There are no revenues from rare earth and critical minerals at this time.
Cost of sales. Our cost of coal sales totaled $397.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $354.4 million for the same period in 2023. The 12% increase was driven by the increase in tons sold, as discussed directly above. Cost of sales per ton sold decreased 3% from $144 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $139 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Cash cost per ton sold (FOB mine), a non-GAAP measure which excludes transportation costs, alternative mineral development costs, and idle mine costs, decreased 2% from $111 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $109 per ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures later in Item 2 for more information regarding this measure. Mine costs for 2024 were impacted negatively by challenging geology and labor constraints in the first quarter of 2024 but improved during the second and third quarters of 2024 due to efficiencies gained from increased production compared to the same periods in 2023.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense totaled $48.9 million and $39.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The increase
25
year-to-year was related to $1.2 million of additional amortization for the Knox Creek Jawbone mine, which is due to the closure of the mine, as well as the general increases in plant and equipment and production versus 2023.
Selling, general, and administrative. SG&A expenses were $37.9 million and $37.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. SG&A expenses in 2024 include a $3.1 million benefit accrued for the probable recovery of attorney fees related to the silo failure litigation developments, which is not indicative of future SG&A expenses. This matter offset most of the 2024 increase in stock-based compensation.
Other income (expense), net. Other income, net was $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which was primarily related to the $2.2 million recovery of previously incurred demurrage and other transportation-related matters. Other income, net was $15.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which was due primarily to recognition of the $7.8 million legal verdict for contract (compensatory) damages related to the 2018 Elk Creek silo failure as well as the $4.9 million gain from the Company’s insurance claim related to the methane ignition that occurred at our Berwind complex in 2022. The Company received $6.0 million of proceeds during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 related to the Berwind ignition and had previously accrued a $1.1 million loss recovery asset at year-end 2022. These activities are not indicative of future results.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net was $4.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $7.3 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease in 2024 was largely due to the repayment in full of related-party debt in 2023 associated with the financing of the acquisition of Ramaco Coal from Yorktown Partners. Interest expense related to this financing totaled $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Income tax expense. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 was 28% and 21%, respectively, excluding the $1.0 million favorable impact of discrete items in 2024. The primary differences from the federal statutory rate of 21% are related to state taxes, non-deductible expenses, the foreign-derived intangible income deduction, and depletion expense for income tax purposes.
Earnings per share. Refer to Note 10 of Part I, Item 1 for information regarding earnings per share calculations for Class A and Class B common stock.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The metallurgical coal markets are volatile in nature; therefore, the Company prioritizes managing its financial position and liquidity, while managing costs and capital expenditures and returning value to its shareholders.
On May 3, 2024, the Company entered into the First Amendment Agreement to the Second Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement in order to, among other things, extend the maturity date and increase the size of its existing Revolving Credit Facility. The amended facility has a maturity date of May 3, 2029, and provides an initial aggregate revolving commitment of $200 million as well as an accordion feature to increase the size by an additional $75 million subject to certain terms and conditions, including the lenders’ consent. The amended facility provides the Company with additional flexibility to pursue further growth in production while meeting normal operating requirements. The terms of the amended facility also require the Company to maintain certain covenants, including fixed charge coverage ratio and compensating balance requirements. Borrowings under the amended facility may not exceed the borrowing base as determined under the amended formula included in the agreement.
At September 30, 2024, we had $22.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $57.9 million of remaining availability under our Revolving Credit Facility for future borrowings. Cash and cash equivalents include $7.5 million of compensating balances held in dedicated accounts to assure future credit availability under the revolver. The Company’s total current assets were $146.7 million and were in excess of total current liabilities by $37.9 million as of the balance sheet date.

Significant sources and uses of cash during the first nine months of 2024
Sources of cash:
● | Cash flows provided by operating activities were $97.0 million during the first nine months of 2024, which were driven primarily by net earnings adjusted for non-cash expenses including depreciation, depletion, and amortization as well as stock-based compensation. Changes in operating assets and liabilities also contributed to operating cash flow driven primarily by the decrease in accounts receivable due to the collection of fourth quarter 2023 revenues, which were $35.3 million higher than third quarter 2024 revenues. |
Uses of cash:
● | Capital expenditures totaled $57.9 million, including expenditures related to the preparation plant and expansion of our Maben complex. Capital expenditures for the Maben preparation plant totaled $12.3 million, including approximately $3 million for the initial purchase of the plant. The preparation plant at Maben was commissioned in October 2024, which should reduce trucking costs at the complex going forward. The Company anticipates lower capital spending in the fourth quarter of 2024 as most of the Company’s annual growth capital expenditures occurred in the first half of 2024. |
● | Cash outflows for financing activities totaled $58.0 million, which included: |
o | net repayments of $24.2 million on our existing debt, finance leases, and insurance financing and |
o | net outflow of $33.8 million to stockholders driven by dividend payments of $24.5 million, which include $18.2 million for Class A common stock and $6.2 million for Class B common stock. |
The Class B common stock dividends were calculated based on 20% of the previous quarter’s CORE royalty and infrastructure fees as shown below. Refer to Note 6 of Part I, Item 1 for additional information regarding dividends.

The Company anticipates declaring similar dividends on a quarterly basis in future periods; however, future declarations of dividends are subject to Board of Directors’ approval and may be adjusted as business needs or market conditions change.
27
Future sources and uses of cash
Our primary use of cash includes capital expenditures for mine development and ongoing operating expenses. We expect to fund our capital and liquidity requirements for the next twelve months and the reasonably foreseeable future with cash on hand, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, projected cash flows from operations, and, if warranted, capital raised under the Company’s shelf registration discussed below. Factors that could adversely impact our future liquidity and ability to carry out our capital expenditure program include the following:
● | Timely delivery of our product by rail and other transportation carriers; |
● | Late payments of accounts receivable by our customers; |
● | Cost overruns in our purchases of equipment needed to complete our mine development plans; |
● | Delays in completion of development of our various mines, processing plants and refuse disposal facilities, which would reduce the coal we would have available to sell and our cash flow from operations; and |
● | Adverse changes in the metallurgical coal markets that would reduce the expected cash flow from operations. |
If future cash flows were to become insufficient to meet our liquidity needs or capital requirements, due to changes in macroeconomic conditions or otherwise, we may reduce our expected level of capital expenditures for new mine production and/or fund a portion of our capital expenditures through the issuance of debt or equity securities, new debt arrangements, or from other sources such as asset sales.
On September 1, 2023, the Company filed a shelf registration statement to sell any combination of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, debt securities, warrants, and rights at an aggregate initial offering price of up to $400.0 million. No securities may be sold until a prospectus supplement describing the method and terms of any future offering is delivered.
Refer to Note 4 of Part I, Item 1 for information regarding the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility and indebtedness.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amounts of revenue and expenses reported for the period then ended. A discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” of the Annual Report. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the first nine months of 2024.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
A discussion of off-balance sheet arrangements is included under the heading “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” in the Annual Report. There were no material changes during the first nine months of 2024.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA - Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus net interest expense; stock-based compensation expense; depreciation, depletion, and amortization expenses; income taxes; accretion of asset retirement obligations; and, when applicable, certain other non-operating items (income tax penalties and charitable contributions). A reconciliation of net
28
income to Adjusted EBITDA is included below. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to serve as a substitute to U.S. GAAP measures of performance and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.

Non-GAAP revenue per ton sold- Non-GAAP revenue per ton sold (FOB mine) is calculated as coal sales revenue less transportation revenues and demurrage, divided by tons sold. We believe revenue per ton sold (FOB mine) provides useful information to investors as it enables investors to compare revenue per ton we generate against similar measures made by other publicly-traded coal companies and more effectively monitor changes in coal prices from period to period excluding the impact of transportation costs which are beyond our control. The adjustments made to arrive at these measures are significant in understanding and assessing our financial performance. Revenue per ton sold (FOB mine) is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP and, therefore, should not be considered as a substitute to revenue under U.S. GAAP.

Non-GAAP cash cost per ton sold - Non-GAAP cash cost per ton sold (FOB mine) is calculated as cash cost of sales less transportation costs, alternative mineral development costs, and idle and other costs, divided by tons sold. We believe cash cost per ton sold provides useful information to investors as it enables investors to compare our cash cost per ton against similar measures made by other publicly-traded coal companies and more effectively monitor changes in coal cost from period to period excluding the impact of transportation costs which are beyond our control, and alternative mineral costs, which are more developmentally focused at the present time.

Cash cost per ton sold (FOB mine) is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP and, therefore, should not be considered as a substitute to cost of sales under U.S. GAAP.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Disclosures about market risk are included in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” of our Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer, who serves as our principal executive officer, and our chief financial officer, who serves as our principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. However, based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report as a result of the two material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as described below.
Previously Reported Material Weakness
We previously identified a material weakness and concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2023. Based on that evaluation, management identified a material weakness related to a pervasive lack of sufficient documentation of accounting policies, procedures, and controls. This lack of sufficient documentation does not allow management to effectively assess its relevant risks and key controls to properly test for design and operating effectiveness. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
30
Remediation Plan
We have developed a plan of remediation to address this material weakness, which will include assessing, redesigning, and implementing modifications to our internal controls. We will not be able to fully remediate this material weakness until these steps have been completed and subsequent validation and testing of these internal controls have demonstrated their operating effectiveness over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles. Once the remediation plan is fully developed, we will be implementing process, control, and documentation improvements to address the above material weakness that include, but are not limited to, designing and implementing specific management review procedures to ensure completeness and accuracy of key financial and non-financial data utilized in our business; and implementing improved policies, procedures, and control activities over key financial data to ensure accuracy and completeness of this data as used in the aforementioned management review procedures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We are actively improving our control environment by executing our remediation plan to address the material weakness, as described above. Our remediation process has resulted in changes to our control environment that we believe represent changes in our system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Additionally, during the most recent fiscal period, management determined that a material weakness existed related to inappropriate segregation of duties related to certain individuals having both system administrator responsibilities within the Company’s Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) financial system and responsibilities for certain accounting and financial reporting functions. The inappropriate segregation of duties was not appropriately mitigated by the monitoring controls implemented to ensure individuals with system administrator access did not make unauthorized changes to the Company’s information systems impacting the financial reporting of the Company. We have implemented an enhanced monitoring control as of the end of the third quarter of 2024, which we believe is designed effectively to remediate the aforementioned material weakness; however, additional testing will be required in the fourth quarter to ensure that the enhanced control activities are operating as designed before we can conclude the material weakness has been remediated.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Senior members of management do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
