____________________________
1 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to segment Adjusted EBITDA (excluding insurance recoveries) divided by segment revenue. Revenue per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton are equal to revenue by segment and Adjusted EBITDA by segment (excluding insurance recoveries), respectively, divided by segment tons sold. Costs per Ton is
equal to Revenue per Ton less Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton. Management believes Costs per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton best reflect controllable costs and operating results at the reporting segment level. We consider all measures reported on a per ton basis, as well as Adjusted EBITDA margin, to be operating/statistical measures. Please refer to the tables and
related notes for a reconciliation and definition of non-GAAP financial measures.

Update on Centurion and Premium Hard Coking Coal Acquisition
"It's hard to overstate the benefits to Peabody, both strategically and financially, from the ramp up of Centurion as well as the agreement to acquire multiple premium hard coking coal mines in Australia," said Mr. Grech. "We are confident that these assets will positively redefine Peabody in the market."
During the fourth quarter, Peabody reached several key milestones at Centurion. The mine is ahead of its development schedule and now has four continuous miners in coal production, while shipping its first coal in December, serving a growing steel producer in Southeast Asia. The company expects to begin producing continuous miner coal from Centurion North early in the third quarter, and targets a combined 500 thousand tons of production for the full year. Peabody is on track to begin longwall production in March 2026, producing 3.5 million tons of premium hard coking coal next year. With a planned annual production averaging 4.7 million tons and approximately 140 million tons of reserves, the operation has a mine life of more than 25 years.
Peabody's acquisition of multiple coal mines from Anglo American is progressing, with completion now targeted for next quarter subject to closing conditions. The company has several regulatory approvals in hand from key governmental agencies, the pre-emption rights timetable window is advancing, Anglo's operational improvements are underway, the permanent financing process has begun, and minority stake ownership discussions are ongoing.
During the first full year of ownership in 2026, the premium hard coking coal mines are expected to produce 11.3 million tons of coal at fully loaded costs of $130-$140 per ton.
Capital Allocation
Peabody generated $612.8 million in operating cash flows from continuing operations in 2024. The company returned $220.7 million to shareholders, invested $226.8 million in the development of Centurion and acquired the Centurion North coal reserves for $143.8 million.
"Peabody's capital allocation strategy continues to reflect a balanced approach of shareholder returns and reinvestment in the business," said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Mark Spurbeck. "Looking ahead, we have structured our pending acquisition with flexible consideration arrangements, including upfront, deferred and contingent payments, to enable the cash flows from the new assets to fund the acquisition."
Focus Areas for 2025
"Peabody is transforming into a predominately metallurgical coal producer, with substantially higher long-term earnings potential, a recharged asset base, and a three-pronged value creation model via free cash flow growth per share, shareholder returns, and multiple expansion," said Mr. Grech.
Peabody has identified five areas of focus in 2025:
-- Continuing emphasis on safe, productive, environmentally sound
operations
-- Ramping up the Centurion Mine on time and on budget
-- Successfully completing the premium hard coking coal acquisition and
integrating the mines into Peabody
-- Serving growing Asian thermal coal demand through its low-cost
Australian export platform
-- Leveraging Peabody's low-cost domestic U.S. thermal coal production to
capitalize on emerging favorable policy and economic themes
First Quarter 2025 Outlook
Seaborne Thermal
-- Volumes are expected to be 4.0 million tons, including 2.5 million
export tons. 0.2 million export tons are priced at $108 per ton, and 1.3
million tons of Newcastle product and 1.0 million tons of high ash
product are unpriced. Costs are anticipated to be $45-$50 per ton.
Seaborne Metallurgical
-- Seaborne met volumes are expected to be 2.0 million tons and are
expected to achieve 70 to 75 percent of the premium hard coking coal
price index. Costs are anticipated to be temporarily elevated at
$125-$135 per ton reflecting a planned longwall move at Shoal Creek.
U.S. Thermal
-- PRB volume is expected to be approximately 19 million tons at an average
price of $13.80 per ton and costs of approximately $12.00-$12.75 per
ton.
-- Other U.S. Thermal volume is expected to be approximately 3.4 million
tons at an average price of $52.50 per ton and costs of approximately
$43-$47 per ton.
