What PEABODY ENERGY CORP does

In the company’s own words

Peabody Energy Corporation (NYSE: BTU) is a leading global producer of metallurgical and thermal coal with operations across the United States and Australia. The company operates 16 active coal mining operations, including a 50% equity interest in Middlemount Coal Pty Ltd. Peabody's business is organized into four reportable segments: Seaborne Thermal, Seaborne Metallurgical, Powder River Basin, and Other U.S. Thermal. The Seaborne segments represent approximately 51% of total revenue from coal supply agreements, while the U.S. thermal operations account for approximately 49% of revenue.

The company's primary products are metallurgical coal used in steel production and thermal coal used for electricity generation. Peabody supplies coal to electricity generators, industrial facilities, and steel manufacturers primarily through long-term coal supply agreements, which comprised approximately 87% of worldwide sales by volume in 2025. The company maintains a substantial backlog of approximately 238 million tons of coal as of January 1, 2026, representing approximately two years of production.

Peabody operates major mining complexes including the North Antelope Rochelle Mine in Wyoming, which is one of the world's largest coal mines, along with significant operations in Queensland and New South Wales, Australia. The company employs approximately 5,400 employees globally, with roughly 3,500 located in the United States and the remainder primarily in Australia. The company achieved a global safety incidence rate of 0.71 incidents per 200,000 hours worked in 2025, setting an all-time company record.

The company utilizes multiple transportation methods to deliver coal to customers, including rail, truck, barge, and export vessels through five east coast coal export terminals in Australia and ports in the United States. Peabody maintains strategic relationships with key suppliers and transportation providers to ensure reliable supply chain operations. The company's website is www.peabodyenergy.com.
