AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Peabody Energy (BTU)

Peabody Q3 loss narrows to $32.8 million; seaborne met guidance cut on Centurion

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings

Peabody reported a third-quarter 2026 net loss attributable to common stockholders of $32.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, down from $70.1 million, or $0.58, a year earlier. Revenue rose to $1,096.3 million from $1,012.1 million, while Adjusted EBITDA of $97.5 million was roughly flat with $99.5 million in the prior-year quarter. The company cut its 2026 seaborne metallurgical volume and raised expected costs because of faulted conditions at the Centurion mine.

Key points

  • Q3 2026 revenue was $1,096.3 million, up from $1,012.1 million in Q3 2025; Adjusted EBITDA was $97.5 million versus $24.0 million in Q2 2026.
  • Full-year 2026 seaborne metallurgical volume was lowered by 0.6 million tons, and costs are expected to rise by about $15 per ton, mainly due to lower Centurion production.
  • Powder River Basin 2026 sales volume decreased by about 7.5 million tons, reflecting weaker 2026 U.S. coal burn.
  • Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share, payable December 9, 2026, to holders of record on November 19, 2026.
