We have used the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “should” and similar terms and phrases, including references to assumptions, in this presentation to identify forward-looking statements, but these terms and phrases are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. These forward-looking statements are made based on expectations and beliefs concerning future events affecting us and are subject to uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by these forward-looking statements. The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements: • depressed levels or declines in coal prices; • the financial performance of the company; • our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition; • our ability to generate sufficient cash or obtain financing to fund our business operations; • worldwide market demand for coal and steel, including demand for U.S. coal exports, and competition in coal markets; • railroad, barge, truck, port and other transportation availability, performance and costs; • steel and coke producers switching to alternative energy sources such as natural gas, renewables and coal from basins where we do not operate; • our ability to meet collateral requirements for, and fund, employee benefit obligations; • our ability to self-insure certain of our black lung obligations following a significant increase in required collateral; • our ability to obtain or renew surety bonds on acceptable terms or maintain our current bonding status; • the imposition, continuation or modification of barriers to trade, such as tariffs, and the present unpredictability of these events; • attracting and retaining key personnel and other employee workforce factors, such as labor relations; • our ability to consummate financing or refinancing transactions, and other services, and the form and degree of these services available to us, which may be significantly limited by the lending, investment and similar policies of financial institutions and insurance companies regarding carbon energy producers, the environmental impacts of coal combustion or other factors; • our costs of complying with health and safety regulations, including but not limited to MSHA’s silica regulations; • changes in domestic or international environmental laws and regulations, and court decisions, including those directly affecting our coal mining and production and those affecting our customers’ coal usage, including potential climate change initiatives; • failures in performance, or non-performance, of services by third-party contractors, including contract mining and reclamation contractors; • disruptions in delivery or changes in pricing from third-party vendors of key equipment and materials that are necessary for our operations, such as diesel fuel, steel products, explosives, tires and purchased coal; • our production capabilities and costs; • inflationary pressures on supplies and labor and significant or rapid increases in commodity prices; • our indebtedness as we may incur it from time to time; • our ability to execute our share repurchase program; • cybersecurity attacks or failures, threats to physical security, extreme weather conditions or other natural disasters; • increased volatility and uncertainty regarding worldwide markets, seaborne transportation and our customers as a result of developments in and around Ukraine and the Middle East; • changes in, renewal or acquisition of, terms of and performance of customers under coal supply arrangements and the refusal by our customers to receive coal under agreed-upon contract terms; • reductions or increases in customer coal inventories and the timing of those changes; • our ability to obtain, maintain or renew any necessary permits or rights; • inherent risks of coal mining, including those that are beyond our control; • changes in, interpretations of, or implementations of domestic or international tax or other laws and regulations, including the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 and its related regulations; • our relationships with, and other conditions affecting, our customers, including the inability to collect payments from our customers if their creditworthiness declines; • reclamation and mine closure obligations; • our assumptions concerning economically recoverable coal reserve estimates; and • other factors, including the other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The list of factors identified above is not exhaustive. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward looking statements, which are based on information currently available to us and speak only as of the dates on which they are made. When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the cautionary statements in this presentation. We do not undertake any responsibility to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to take into account events or circumstances that occur after the date of this presentation. Additionally, except as expressly required by federal securities laws, we do not undertake any responsibility to update or revise any forward-looking statements or update you on the occurrence of any unanticipated events, which may cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation. See Appendix B for reconciliations of the differences between the financial measures in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation.

Actual coal shipments may vary from these estimates. 4 Note: The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton sold financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying with reasonable accuracy significant items required for the reconciliation. The most directly comparable GAAP measure, GAAP cost of sales, is not accessible without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis. The reconciling items include freight and handling costs, which are a component of GAAP cost of sales. Management is unable to predict without unreasonable efforts freight and handling costs due to uncertainty as to the end market and FOB point for uncommitted sales volumes and the final shipping point for export shipments. These amounts have varied historically and may continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and material changes to these items could have a significant effect on our future GAAP results. 5 Excludes expenses related to non-cash stock compensation and non-recurring expenses. 6 Includes contributions to fund normal operations at our DTA export facility and expected capital investments related to the facility upgrades.

Specifically, we make use of the non-GAAP financial measures “Adjusted EBITDA,” “non-GAAP coal revenues,” “non-GAAP cost of coal sales,” "non-GAAP coal margin," "Margin %," "non-GAAP coal sales realization per ton," "non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton," "Free Cash Flow," "Free Cash Flow Conversion," "Net Leverage,", "Gross Leverage," "Total Distributions," "Excess Liquidity," and "Shareholder Return as a % of Excess Liquidity." In addition to net income, we use Adjusted EBITDA to measure the operating performance of our reportable segment. Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or any other measure of operating results, financial performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, this measure is not calculated identically by all companies and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it is a useful indicator of the financial performance of our coal operations. Margin % is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. We use non-GAAP coal revenues to present coal revenues generated, excluding freight and handling fulfillment revenues. Non-GAAP coal sales realization per ton for our operations is calculated as non-GAAP coal revenues divided by tons sold. We use non-GAAP cost of coal sales to adjust cost of coal sales to remove freight and handling costs, depreciation, depletion and amortization - production (excluding the depreciation, depletion and amortization related to selling, general and administrative functions), accretion on asset retirement obligations, amortization of acquired intangibles, net, and idled and closed mine costs. Non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton for our operations is calculated as non-GAAP cost of coal sales divided by tons sold. Non-GAAP coal margin per ton for our coal operations is calculated as non-GAAP coal sales realization per ton for our coal operations less non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton for our coal operations. Free Cash Flow is calculated as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and capital contributions to equity affiliates. Free Cash Flow Conversion is calculated as Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Net Leverage is calculated as the last twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA divided by net debt. Gross Leverage is calculated as the last twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA divided by gross debt. Total Distributions is calculated as dividend and dividend equivalents paid plus common stock repurchases and related expenses. Excess Liquidity is calculated as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and credit facility capacity less outstanding letters of credit and minimum liquidity. Shareholder Return as a % of Excess Liquidity is calculated as Total Distributions divided by Excess Liquidity. The presentation of these measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. The definition of these non-GAAP measures may be changed periodically by management to adjust for significant items important to an understanding of operating trends and to adjust for items that may not reflect the trend of future results by excluding transactions that are not indicative of our core operating performance. Furthermore, analogous measures are used by industry analysts to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate, capital investments and other factors. Included on the following slides are reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures.

"Alpha's first quarter results reflect the challenging market environment we continue to experience, as well as significant impacts we previously disclosed related to severe weather conditions in January and February," said Andy Eidson, Alpha's chief executive officer. "These
adverse weather events put pressure on our volumes and resulted in cost increases for the quarter. In light of the poor market conditions and economic uncertainty caused by shifting tariff and trade policies, we continue to prioritize the protection of our liquidity position. As a result, we have lowered our 2025 capex guidance by roughly $27 million at the midpoint; we believe this is achievable without any negative impact to safety across the portfolio or the on-track progress of development mining at our new Kingston Wildcat low vol mine."
Todd Munsey, Alpha's chief financial officer, commented on the company's successful efforts to increase its asset-based revolving credit facility (ABL): "We are pleased to announce the increase in size of our ABL facility from $155 million to $225 million along with an extension of the maturity to May of 2029. The amended facility provides Alpha access to additional liquidity and we value the optionality that this facility provides."
Financial Performance
Alpha reported a net loss of $33.9 million, or $2.60 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2025, as compared to net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter 2024.
Total Adjusted EBITDA was $5.7 million for the first quarter, compared to $53.2 million in the fourth quarter 2024.

Alpha's Met segment cost of coal sales increased to an average of $110.34 per ton in the first quarter, compared to $108.82 per ton in the fourth quarter 2024. Severe weather in January and February disrupted operations and resulted in higher costs for those months. Cost of coal sales improved in the month of March once these external challenges abated.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter decreased to $22.2 million as compared to $56.3 million in the fourth quarter 2024. Capital expenditures for the first quarter were $38.5 million compared to $42.7 million for the fourth quarter 2024.
As of March 31, 2025, the company had total liquidity of $485.8 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $448.0 million and $112.9 million of unused availability under the asset-based revolving credit facility (ABL), partially offset by a minimum required liquidity of $75.0 million as required by the ABL. As of March 31, 2025, the company had no borrowings and $42.1 million in letters of credit outstanding under the ABL. Total long-term debt, including the current portion of long-term debt as of March 31, 2025, was $5.0 million.
Amended and Extended ABL Facility
On May 6, 2025, Alpha amended and extended its ABL agreement to increase the size of the facility to $225.0 million. In addition, the company may request an increase to the capacity of the facility of up to an additional $75.0 million provided that $25.0 million shall be solely for the purpose of providing additional availability to obtain cash collateralized letters of credit. Availability under the ABL facility is calculated monthly and fluctuates based on qualifying amounts of coal inventory, trade accounts receivable, and, in certain circumstances, specified amounts of cash. Following the amendment, the ABL facility matures on May 4, 2029.
Under the amended terms of the ABL facility, letters of credit fees will be calculated at a rate of 2.25%, 2.50% or 2.75% depending on the level of available capacity under the facility, plus a fronting fee of 0.25%. Any future borrowings will bear interest based on the character of the loan (defined as either a “Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate Loan” (or “Term SOFR Loan”) or a“Base Rate Loan”). Term SOFR Loans bear interest at a rate equal to Term SOFR, plus 0.10% SOFR Adjustment plus an applicable rate of 2.25%, 2.50% or 2.75%, and Base Rate Loans bear interest at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus an applicable margin rate of 1.25%, 1.50% or 1.75%, in each case, depending on the level of available capacity under the facility at the time of the loan. The company may elect the character and interest period for each loan. All amounts borrowed may be repaid prior to maturity without penalty. A commitment fee of 0.375% will be charged on any unused capacity.
The ABL agreement limits the company’s ability to make certain restricted payments, including the payment of cash dividends and the repurchase of equity shares under its share repurchase program, if the level of cash it maintains at Regions Bank falls below $100.0 million. The ABL agreement also contains negative and affirmative covenants and requires the company to maintain minimum liquidity, as defined in the ABL agreement, of $75.0 million. As of March 31, 2025, the company’s cash balance at Regions Bank exceeded the $100.0 million threshold and the company is in compliance with all covenants under the ABL agreement.
Results of Alpha's 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
The company's annual meeting of stockholders was held on May 7, 2025, and stockholders re-elected all six members of Alpha's board of directors to additional one-year terms and approved

all other items proposed by the board for consideration at the meeting. The complete voting results from the annual meeting have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 8-K.
2025 Guidance Adjustments and Performance Update
Alpha is reducing 2025 shipment guidance for metallurgical tons to a range of 13.8 million to 14.8 million tons, down from the prior range of 14.5 million to 15.5 million tons. The company expects to ship between 0.8 million and 1.2 million tons of thermal coal for the year, down from the prior range of 1.0 million to 1.4 million tons. Alpha now expects total sales volumes of between 14.6 million and 16.0 million tons for 2025.
The company is also lowering its full-year 2025 guidance for capital expenditures. The new range is $130 million to $150 million, down from the prior range of $152 million to $182 million.
As of May 1, 2025, Alpha has committed and priced approximately 50% of its metallurgical coal for 2025 at an average price of $133.04 per ton and 100% of its thermal coal for the year at an average price of $80.75 per ton.

Notes:
1.Based on committed and priced coal shipments as of May 1, 2025. Committed percentage based on the midpoint of shipment guidance range.
2.Actual average per-ton realizations on committed and priced tons recognized in future periods may vary based on actual freight expense in future periods relative to assumed freight expense embedded in projected average per-ton realizations.
3.Includes estimates of future coal shipments based upon contract terms and anticipated delivery schedules. Actual coal shipments may vary from these estimates.
4.Note: The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton sold financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying with reasonable accuracy significant items required for the reconciliation. The most directly comparable GAAP measure, GAAP cost of sales, is not accessible without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis. The reconciling items include freight and handling costs, which are a component of GAAP cost of sales. Management is unable to predict without unreasonable efforts freight and handling costs due to uncertainty as to the end market and FOB point for uncommitted sales volumes and the final shipping point for export shipments. These amounts have varied historically and may continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and material changes to these items could have a significant effect on our future GAAP results.
5.Excludes expenses related to non-cash stock compensation and non-recurring expenses.
6.Includes contributions to fund normal operations at our DTA export facility and expected capital investments related to the facility upgrades.

FINANCIAL TABLES FOLLOW
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The discussion below contains “non-GAAP financial measures.” These are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”). Specifically, we make use of the non-GAAP financial measures “Adjusted EBITDA,” “non-GAAP coal revenues,” “non-GAAP cost of coal sales,” and “non-GAAP coal margin.” In addition to net income, we use Adjusted EBITDA to measure the operating performance of our reportable segment. Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or any other measure of operating results, financial performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, this measure is not calculated identically by all companies and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it is a useful indicator of the financial performance of our coal operations. We use non-GAAP coal revenues to present coal revenues generated, excluding freight and handling fulfillment revenues. Non-GAAP coal sales realization per ton for our operations is calculated as non-GAAP coal revenues divided by tons sold. We use non-GAAP cost of coal sales to adjust cost of coal sales to remove freight and handling costs, depreciation, depletion and amortization - production (excluding the depreciation, depletion and amortization related to selling, general and administrative functions), accretion on asset retirement obligations, amortization of acquired intangibles, net, and idled and closed mine costs. Non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton for our operations is calculated as non-GAAP cost of coal sales divided by tons sold. Non-GAAP coal margin per ton for our coal operations is calculated as non-GAAP coal sales realization per ton for our coal operations less non-GAAP cost of coal sales per ton for our coal operations. The presentation of these measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.
Management uses non-GAAP financial measures to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. The definition of these non-GAAP measures may be changed periodically by management to adjust for significant items important to an understanding of operating trends and to adjust for items that may not reflect the trend of future results by excluding transactions that are not indicative of our core operating performance. Furthermore, analogous measures are used by industry analysts to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate, capital investments and other factors.
Included below are reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures.
