    ___________________________

    1 Adjusted EBITDA and Available Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures.  Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to segment Adjusted EBITDA divided by segment revenue. Revenue per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton are equal to revenue by segment and Adjusted EBITDA by segment, respectively, divided by segment tons sold. Costs per Ton is equal to Revenue per Ton less Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton. Management believes Costs per Ton and Adjusted EBITDA Margin per Ton best reflect controllable costs and operating results at the reporting segment level. We consider all measures reported on a per ton basis, as well as Adjusted EBITDA margin, to be operating/statistical measures. Please refer to the tables and related notes in this press release for a reconciliation and definition of non-GAAP financial measures.

    The seaborne thermal segment shipped 3.7 million tons, including 2.6 million export tons at an average export realized price of $97.20 per ton.  Tons sold decreased by 0.5 million tons compared to the third quarter primarily driven by a December train derailment on the mainline which limited shipments from Wilpinjong.  Total segment costs of $49.71 per ton were 14 percent higher than the prior quarter due to lower production and product mix.  The segment reported 35 percent Adjusted EBITDA margins and Adjusted EBITDA of $99.8 million.

    The other U.S. thermal segment shipped 3.7 million tons at an average realized price of $57.00 per ton.  Tons sold were lower than the previous quarter due to a longwall move at Twentymile and lower customer demand as a result of low natural gas prices and higher utility inventories.  Costs per ton increased 8 percent from the prior quarter to $45.57 primarily due to lower production.  The segment reported 20 percent Adjusted EBITDA margins and Adjusted EBITDA of $42.3 million in the fourth quarter.

    Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income from continuing operations before deducting net interest expense, income taxes, asset retirement

    obligation expenses and depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is also adjusted for the discrete items that management

    excluded in analyzing each of our segment's operating performance as displayed in the reconciliation above. Adjusted EBITDA is used by

    management as the primary metric to measure each of our segment's operating performance and allocate resources.

    (2)

    Total Reporting Segment Costs is defined as operating costs and expenses adjusted for the discrete items that management excluded in

    analyzing each of our segment's operating performance, as displayed in the reconciliation above. Total Reporting Segment Costs is used by

    management as a component of a metric to measure each of our segment's operating performance.

    (3)

    Available Free Cash Flow is defined as operating cash flow minus investing cash flow and distributions to noncontrolling interests; plus/minus

    changes to restricted cash and collateral (excluding one-time effects of the recent surety agreement amendment) and other anticipated

    expenditures. Available Free Cash Flow is used by management as a measure of our ability to generate excess cash flow from our business

    operations.

    Forward-Looking Statements

    This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the securities laws. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words or variation of words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "projects," "forecasts," "targets," "would," "will," "should," "goal," "could" or "may" or other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements provide management's or the Board's current expectations or predictions of future conditions, events, or results. All statements that address operating performance, events, or developments that may occur in the future are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the shareholder return framework, execution of the Company's operating plans, market conditions for the Company's products, reclamation obligations, financial outlook, potential acquisitions and strategic investments, and liquidity requirements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and reflect Peabody's good faith beliefs, assumptions, and expectations, but they are not guarantees of future performance or events. Furthermore, Peabody disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, except as required by law. By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, a variety of economic, competitive, and regulatory factors, many of which are beyond Peabody's control, that are described in Peabody's periodic reports filed with the SEC including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2022, and other factors that Peabody may describe from time to time in other filings with the SEC. You may get such filings for free at Peabody's website at www.peabodyenergy.com. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and, consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.
