The company has dramatically strengthened its balance sheet, eliminating over $3bn of debt and building more than $2bn in cash, giving it one of the most conservative capital structures among coal producers. Even after coal prices normalised, low operating costs allow the business to remain profitable with solid cash flow and sustainable production levels.
