**<u>Warrior Met Coal Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results</u>**

*Achieved full year strong net income of $641.3 million* 

*and all-time record Adjusted EBITDA of $994.2 million*

*Achieved all-time record annual cash flows from operations of $841.9 million*

*Ended 2022 with total liquidity of $952.8 million*

*Sets out guidance for 2023*

**BROOKWOOD, AL -- February 15, 2023 -** Warrior Met Coal, Inc. (NYSE:HCC) ("Warrior" or the "Company") today announced results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2022. Warrior is the leading dedicated U.S.-based producer and exporter of high quality metallurgical ("met") coal for the global steel industry.

Warrior reported fourth quarter 2022 net income of $99.7 million, or $1.93 per diluted share, compared to net income of $138.5 million, or $2.68 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $1.90 per diluted share compared to an adjusted net income of $3.17 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company reported Adjusted EBITDA of $147.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $240.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. While sales volumes were flat quarter over quarter, average net selling prices were 17% lower in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to stronger met coal market pricing in late 2021.

"In the fourth quarter, we delivered strong results despite shipment delays due to mechanical failures at the McDuffie Terminal and bad weather at the Port of Mobile, which continued to drive higher than normal inventories and lower shipment volumes," commented Walt Scheller, CEO of Warrior. "We were pleased to see customer demand and coal prices hold firm despite lower steel production globally. As we jointly address the mechanical challenges with our partner at the McDuffie Terminal and as rail transportation performance continues to improve, we expect to ship higher volumes, returning our inventories to normal levels. We have already seen significant improvement from these joint efforts in the first six weeks of the year. Our fourth quarter results marked the conclusion of an exceedingly strong financial year for Warrior, which posted strong net income, record operating cash flows and set Company records for Adjusted EBITDA, more than double our 2021 Adjusted EBITDA at nearly $1 billion, as well as free cash flow and total liquidity. As a result, we are able to move ahead more rapidly with our transformational Blue Creek mine development project, which we believe will drive meaningful future growth, profitability and cash generation."

"Overall, Warrior enters 2023 with excellent financial and operational momentum. Our current liquidity, which is at a record high, will enable us to continue to return excess cash to stockholders while investing in the future growth of the business through the rapid development of the Blue Creek mine," Scheller concluded.

------

Warrior reported strong full year 2022 net income of $641.3 million and adjusted net income of $666.1 million, or net income of $12.40 per diluted share and adjusted net income of $12.88 per diluted share, compared to net income of $150.9 million and adjusted net income of $227.7 million, or net income of $2.93 per diluted share and adjusted net income of $4.43 per diluted share, in 2021. The Company reported an all-time record high Adjusted EBITDA of $994.2 million for the full year 2022 compared to $457.0 million for the full year 2021.

**Operating Results**

The Company produced 1.5 million short tons of met coal in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 1.1 million short tons in the fourth quarter of 2021. Fourth quarter production was the result of running both longwalls and five continuous miner units at Mine No. 7 and one longwall and three continuous miner units at Mine No. 4. For the full year of 2022, the Company produced 6.3 million short tons, or an increase of 12.7% compared to 2021. Sales volume in the fourth quarter of 2022 was 1.5 million short tons compared to 1.4 million short tons in the fourth quarter of 2021. Sales volumes for the full year 2022 were 5.6 million short tons, or a decrease of 10.5% compared to 2021 primarily due to the shipment delays caused by the Port of Mobile and low rail transportation performance throughout the year. Inventory levels increased to 855 thousand short tons at the end of December 31, 2022 from the 243 thousand short tons at the end of 2021 primarily due to the shipment delays.

**Additional Financial Results**

Total revenues were $344.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, including $329.9 million in mining revenues, which consisted of met coal sales of 1.5 million short tons at an average net selling price of $227.21 per short ton, net of demurrage and other charges. This compares to total revenues of $415.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The average net selling price of the Company's met coal decreased 17% from $273.84 per short ton in the fourth quarter of 2021 to $227.21 per short ton in the fourth quarter of 2022 due to stronger met coal market pricing last year.

Cost of sales for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $180.7 million compared to $155.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Cash cost of sales (including mining, transportation and royalty costs) for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $179.2 million, or 54.3% of mining revenues, compared to $153.3 million, or 38.6% of mining revenues in the same period of 2021. Cash cost of sales (free-on-board port) per short ton increased to $123.40 in the fourth quarter of 2022 from $105.80 in the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily reflecting the delayed impact of transportation and royalty costs and rising inflation in 2022. The full year 2022 cash cost of sales per short ton was $125.50 compared to $87.48 in for the full year 2021. Inflation accounted for approximately $5 per short impact during the fourth quarter and $4 per short ton for the full year 2022 primarily due to increases in the costs of diesel fuel, belt structure, roof bolts, cable, chemicals and other supplies, plus labor and parts on equipment repair and rebuilds.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $11.8 million, or 3.4% of total revenues. Depreciation and depletion costs for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $28.3 million, or 8.2% of total revenues. Warrior incurred net interest income of $1.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to net interest expense of $9.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Interest income earned on our cash investments exceeded interest expense on our outstanding notes and equipment leases.

Business interruption expenses were $3.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and represent non-recurring expenses that are directly attributable to the ongoing labor strike for incremental safety and security, labor negotiations and other expenses. Idle mine expenses were $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and represent expenses incurred with the reduced operations at the mines, such as electricity, insurance and maintenance labor.

------

Income tax expense was $19.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 due to income before income taxes of $119.3 million and primarily reflects the utilization of our net operating losses offset partially by an income tax benefit for depletion. This compares to an income tax expense of $26.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

**Cash Flow and Liquidity**

The Company generated cash flows from operating activities in the fourth quarter of 2022 of $195.0 million, compared to $174.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Capital expenditures for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $98.5 million, resulting in free cash flow of $96.5 million. Free cash flow was $54.4 million less than the fourth quarter of 2021 and reflected lower realized prices and higher capital expenditures and mine development costs.

Net working capital, excluding cash, for the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased by $46.7 million from the third quarter of 2022, primarily reflecting a decrease in accounts receivable due to lower average net selling prices, partially offset by higher inventories and lower accounts payable.

Cash flows used in financing activities for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $12.7 million, primarily due to payments of capital lease obligations of $7.9 million, the payment of the regular quarterly dividend of $3.1 million, and retirements of debt of $1.6 million.

The Company generated an all-time record $841.9 million of cash flows from operating activities for the full year 2022 compared to $351.5 million in 2021. Capital expenditures and mine development costs for the full year 2022 were $254.2 million, including $47.1 million for the development of Blue Creek. Cash flows used in financing activities for the full year 2022 were $153.1 million, primarily due to the payment of regular and special cash dividends of $79.7 million, retirements of debt of $39.4 million, and payments on capital lease obligations of $30.3 million.

The Company's total liquidity as of December 31, 2022 was a record high $952.8 million, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $829.5 million and available liquidity under its ABL Facility of $123.3 million, net of outstanding letters of credit of $8.7 million.

**Capital Allocation**

On February 9, 2023, the Board of Directors (the "Board") declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share, which was an increase of 17% over the regular cash dividend declared by the Board on October 24, 2022, totaling approximately $3.7 million, which will be paid on February 27, 2023 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 20, 2023.

In addition, on February 13, 2023, the Board declared a special cash dividend (the "March 2023 Special Dividend") of $0.88 per share, totaling approximately $46.3 million, which will be paid on March 7, 2023, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 28, 2023. The Company continues to demonstrate its previous commitment to returning excess cash to stockholders while driving long-term growth with its investment in the development of its Blue Creek reserves.

Any future special dividends or stock repurchases from excess cash flows will be at the discretion of the Board and subject to consideration of several factors including business and market conditions, future financial performance and other strategic investment opportunities. The Company will also seek to optimize its capital structure to improve returns to stockholders while allowing flexibility for the Company to pursue very selective strategic growth opportunities that can provide compelling stockholder returns.

**Company Outlook**

The Company's outlook for 2023 is subject to many risks that may impact performance, such as the labor strike, ongoing mechanical issues at the McDuffie Terminal at the Port of Mobile, ongoing rail transportation issues, market conditions in the steel and met coal industries and overall global economic and competitive conditions, all as more fully described under Forward-Looking Statements. The Company's guidance for the full year 2023 is outlined below.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Coal sales | 6.6 - 7.2 million short tons |
| Coal production | 6.3 - 6.9 million short tons |
| Cash cost of sales (free-on-board port) | $109 - $125 per short ton |
| Capital expenditures for sustaining existing mines | $95 - $105 million |
| Blue Creek project and other discretionary capital expenditures | $325 - $345 million |
| Mine development costs | $10 - $14 million |
| Selling, general and administrative expenses | $42 - $48 million |
| Interest expense, net of interest income | $5 - $10 million |
| Income tax expense | 18% - 20% |

---

Key factors that may affect outlook include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Four planned longwall moves (Q1, Q2, and Q3 has two moves),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• HCC index pricing,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Exclusion of other non-recurring costs,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• New labor contract, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Inflationary pressures.

The Company's guidance for its capital expenditures consists of sustaining capital spending of approximately $95-$105 million, including regulatory and gas requirements, and discretionary capital spending of $325-$345 million for the development of the Blue Creek reserves, final payments on two new sets of longwall shields originally purchased in 2022, and the final 4 North portal construction.

**Environmental, Social and Governance Sustainability**

The Company recently published its annual corporate environmental, social and governance sustainability report for 2022, which is located at <u>http://www.warriormetcoal.com/corporate-sustainability/</u>. The report was prepared in accordance with the codified standards of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board. The Company is committed to transparency and open conversations surrounding environmental, social and governance topics. Although Warrior's underground metallurgical (met) coal operations have a minimal environment impact compared to surface-mined thermal coal, the Company strives to be an environmental steward by focusing on preservation of the environment, monitoring energy use, reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and effective land reclamation.

**About Warrior** 

Warrior is a U.S.-based, environmentally and socially minded supplier to the global steel industry. It is dedicated entirely to mining non-thermal met coal used as a critical component of steel production by metal manufacturers in Europe, South America and Asia. Warrior is a large-scale, low-cost producer and exporter of premium quality met coal, also known as hard-coking coal (HCC), operating highly efficient longwall operations in its underground mines based in Alabama. The HCC that Warrior produces from the Blue Creek coal seam contains very low sulfur, has strong coking properties and is of a similar quality to coal referred to as the premium HCC produced in Australia. The premium nature of Warrior's HCC makes it ideally suited as a base feed coal for steel makers and results in price realizations near the S&P Global Platts Index price.

<sup>(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</sup> Cash cost of sales (free-on-board port) is based on reported cost of sales and includes items such as freight, royalties, labor, fuel and other similar production and sales cost items, and may be adjusted for other items that, pursuant to GAAP, are classified in the Condensed Statements of Operations as costs other than cost of sales, but relate directly to the costs incurred to produce met coal. Our cash cost of sales per short ton is calculated as cash cost of sales divided by the short tons sold. Cash cost of sales per short ton is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not calculated in conformity with U.S. GAAP and should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute or superior to financial measures calculated in conformity with GAAP. We believe cash cost of sales per ton is a useful measure of performance and we believe it aids some investors and analysts in comparing us against other companies to help analyze our current and future potential performance. Cash cost of sales per ton may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

<sup>(3)</sup> Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before net interest (income) expense, income tax expense, depreciation and depletion, non-cash asset retirement obligation accretion and valuation adjustments, non-cash stock compensation expense, other non-cash accretion and valuation adjustments, non-cash mark-to-market (gain) loss on gas hedges, loss on early extinguishment of debt, business interruption expenses, idle mine expenses and other income. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with GAAP, and we believe items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant to a reader in understanding and assessing our financial condition. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to net income, income from operations, cash flows from operations or as a measure of our profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA presents a useful measure of our ability to incur and service debt based on ongoing operations. Furthermore, analogous measures are used by industry analysts to evaluate our operating performance. Investors should be aware that our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

<sup>(4)</sup> Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues.

<sup>(5)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</sup>Adjusted net income is defined as net income net of asset retirement obligation valuation adjustment, other non-cash valuation adjustments, business interruption expenses, idle mine expenses, loss on early extinguishment of debt, incremental stock compensation expense and other income, net of tax (based on each respective period's effective tax rate). Adjusted net income is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with GAAP, and we believe items excluded from adjusted net income are significant to the reader in understanding and assessing our results of operations. Therefore, adjusted net income should not be considered in isolation, nor as an alternative to net income under GAAP.
