 within each segment. The Utility Coal Mining, Contract Mining and Minerals and Royalties segments were formerly the Coal Mining, North American Mining and Minerals Management segments, respectively. There were no changes to the composition of each segment and therefore no changes to historical segment reporting. Our operating segments are further described below:Utility Coal Mining Segment: The Utility Coal Mining segment operates surface coal mines under exclusive, long-term contracts to supply 100% of the fuel requirements for adjacent power plants and a synfuels plant. Each mine is fully integrated with the operation of these facilities.During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Utility Coal Mining segment's operating coal mines were: The Coteau Properties Company (Coteau), Coyote Creek Mining Company, LLC (Coyote Creek), The Falkirk Mining Company (Falkirk) and Mississippi Lignite Mining Company (MLMC). Coteau, Falkirk and Coyote Creek are in North Dakota and MLMC is in Mississippi. Each of these mines produce lignite coal. While MLMC’s coal supply contract contains a take or pay provision, the contract contains a force majeure provision that allows for the temporary suspension of the take or pay provision during the duration of certain specified events beyond the control of either party; all other coal supply contracts are requirements contracts. Certain coal supply contracts can be terminated early, which would result in a reduction to future earnings.The MLMC contract is the only coal supply contract in which we are responsible for all operating costs, capital requirements and final mine reclamation; therefore, MLMC is consolidated within our financial statements. MLMC sells coal to its customer at a contractually agreed-upon price which adjusts monthly, primarily based on changes in the level of established indices which reflect general U.S. inflation rates and includes adjustments for coal quality and certain reimbursable costs. Profitability at MLMC is affected by customer demand for coal and changes in the indices that determine sales price and actual costs incurred. As diesel fuel is heavily weighted among the indices used to determine the coal sales price, fluctuations in diesel fuel prices can result in significant fluctuations in earnings at MLMC. MLMC's customer operates the Red Hills Power Plant, which supplies electricity to the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) under a long-term power purchase agreement. MLMC’s contract with its customer runs through April 1, 2032. TVA’s power portfolio includes coal, nuclear, hydroelectric, natural gas and renewables. The decision regarding which power plants to dispatch is determined
