Core Natural Resources, Inc. is a leading producer of high-quality metallurgical and thermal coals, operating large-scale, low-cost longwall mines and a strategic logistical network to serve global markets. The company was formed in January 2025 through the merger of CONSOL Energy and Arch Resources.
In the second quarter of 2025, Core Natural Resources reported a net loss of $36.6 million, despite generating $220.2 million in net cash from operating activities and $131.1 million in free cash flow. The company increased its annual synergy target to between $150 million and $170 million and returned $87.1 million to stockholders through share buybacks and dividends.
Core’s high c.v. thermal coal segment saw an 18% increase in sales volumes, while the Powder River Basin segment performed strongly with 12.6 million tons sold. The metallurgical segment faced challenges due to a longwall outage at Leer South but maintained consistent sales volumes. The company also increased its liquidity by $90 million and consolidated its accounts receivable facilities.
Looking ahead, Core Natural Resources remains focused on capturing synergies and maintaining strong cash flow, with expectations of continued robust performance from its thermal and Powder River Basin segments. The company aims to enhance stockholder value through strategic capital returns and operational efficiencies, positioning itself for future growth as coal markets recover.
