Company Guidance -

Q3 2025

During the Warrior Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Conference Call, the company provided guidance on several key metrics. The acceleration of the Blue Creek longwall startup to early Q1 2026 was announced, with first commercial sales of steelmaking coal from Blue Creek achieved one quarter ahead of schedule. Warrior reported a 6% increase in sales volume to 2.2 million short tons, with production volume also rising by 6% to 2.3 million short tons compared to the same quarter last year. Sales were 52% to Asia, 37% to Europe, and 11% to South America. The company updated its cash cost of sales guidance to $110-$120 per ton, factoring in a PLV price of $175-$200. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $54 million, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 18%. Total revenues decreased to $298 million, primarily due to a 30% decline in average net selling prices. Warrior's total available liquidity at the end of the second quarter was $545 million. The company also highlighted the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which classifies metallurgical coal as a critical mineral eligible for a tax credit, expected to positively affect Warrior's financials from 2026.
