CLOUD PEAK ENERGY INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS
FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2012
Gillette, WY, July 31, 2012 Cloud Peak Energy Inc. (NYSE:CLD), one of the largest U.S. coal producers and the only pure-play Powder River Basin (PRB) coal company, today announced results for the second quarter and first six months of 2012.
2012 Second Quarter and Six Months Highlights
· Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $65.6 million in the second quarter of 2012 compared with $88.3 million in the second quarter of 2011; Adjusted EBITDA of $141.4 million compared with $170.9 million for the first six months of 2011.
· Net income of $33.7 million resulting in Adjusted EPS(1) of $0.34 compared to $0.72 in the second quarter of 2011; for the six months of 2012, net income of $60.3 million resulting in Adjusted EPS of $0.81 compared to $1.16 in the first six months of 2011.
· Diluted EPS of $0.55 compared to $1.56 in the second quarter of 2011; diluted EPS of $0.99 compared to $2.00 in the first six months of 2011.
· Generated cash from operations of $81.3 million for the first six months of 2012.
· Acquired Youngs Creek project containing approximately 450 million tons of in-place coal and 38,800 acres of surface land in the Northern Powder River Basin (NPRB) to further Cloud Peak Energys potential for increased Asian exports.
· Implemented an oil hedging program using costless collars for 75% of our expected usage through March 2013.
We are pleased with our operational and financial performance during what we knew would be a very challenging second quarter. As expected, shipments were unusually slow as some customers continued to substitute low price natural gas for coal at a time when they had high coal stockpiles and low electricity demand. During the second quarter, the operations did a good job of controlling costs as we managed our business in line with the reduced demand. We were very pleased to announce our successful acquisition of the significant Youngs Creek coal and land assets. This transaction builds our

Northern PRB asset base to allow us to meet anticipated strong international demand for our coal, said Colin Marshall, President and Chief Executive Officer.

(1) Includes the three company-operated mines only.
For the second quarter, sales from our three company-operated mines were 20.1 million tons, down from 23.0 million tons in the second quarter of 2011. Reduced sales were driven by the high utility stockpiles built up after the very warm winter and related low natural gas prices. This compounded the impact of the second quarter shoulder season when low demand for electricity allows utilities to complete annual plant maintenance. Shipments from the Spring Creek mine were further reduced by flooding at the MERC terminal on Lake Superior in mid-June that delayed approximately 400,000 tons of shipments to the second half of the year. Adjusted EBITDA declined to $65.6 million, driven primarily by the lower volumes. Realized price increased to $13.11 per ton. Average cost of product sold per ton was in line with our expectations at $10.09, up from last year primarily due to the impact of fixed costs when selling fewer tons.
Health, Safety and Environment Record
During the second quarter of 2012, of our approximately 1,400 mine site employees, three suffered minor reportable injuries resulting in a year-to-date MSHA All Injury Frequency Rate of 0.68, a decrease over the full year 2011 rate of 1.18. During the 17 MSHA inspector days in the second quarter of 2012, we were issued one substantial and significant (S&S) citation, which has been satisfactorily resolved and resulted in a total proposed fine of $5,961.
Cloud Peak Energy was proud to be awarded the Office of Surface Mining Excellence in Surface Coal Mining Good Neighbor Award recognizing our commitment to outstanding and innovative reclamation practices across our three managed mines.
Northern PRB Projects
Cloud Peak Energy acquired the Youngs Creek Mining Company, LLC (Youngs Creek) joint venture and other related coal and surface assets for $300 million in June 2012. Of this purchase price, $195 million is allocated to the lease of approximately 450 million tons of in-place coal, of which the undeveloped Youngs Creek mine permit includes 291 million recoverable tons and $105 million to the purchase and lease of 38,800 acres of land. The coal and land are well suited to support potential increased exports through the Pacific Northwest to our Asian customers. Youngs Creek is a permitted but undeveloped surface mine project in the Northern Powder River Basin located 13 miles north of Sheridan, Wyoming, contiguous with the Wyoming-Montana state line. It is 7 miles south of Cloud Peak Energys Spring Creek mine and 7 miles from the mainline railroad. There are a number of alternatives we are considering with respect to the potential development of this property, and until we have a definitive mine plan for the property, we are not able to classify the coal assets as reserves.
The significant coal and surface assets we acquired position Cloud Peak Energy well for future growth in our Asian exports as additional terminal capacity becomes available. The quality of the coal is similar to that of our Spring Creek mine and offers lower sodium levels to further meet the needs of our domestic and international customers, said Colin Marshall, President and Chief Executive Officer, of Cloud Peak Energy.
In addition, on July 23, 2012, we announced that we reached tentative agreements with the Crow Tribe of Indians regarding exploration rights and exclusive options to lease and develop up to an estimated 1.4 billion tons of in-place Northern Powder River Basin coal on the Crow Indian Reservation in southeast Montana, near our Spring Creek mine. These tentative agreements have not been executed and have been submitted to the Crow Tribal Legislature for review.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash flow from operations totaled $81.3 million for the first six months of 2012. Cash spent on capital expenditures was $21.9 million (excluding capitalized interest). In addition, in June, the Youngs Creek assets were acquired for $300 million and installment payments of $69.2 million were made on the North Maysdorf and West Antelope II coal tract LBAs. The Youngs Creek acquisition of $300 million was financed from cash on the balance sheet, leaving unrestricted cash and investments of $221.8 million at June 30, 2012. Cloud Peak Energys balance sheet continues to be well positioned with total available liquidity of $722 million at June 30, 2012.
During the quarter, Cloud Peak Energy entered into financial swaps to create a costless collar to mitigate against large increases in crude oil prices. The initial transactions covered 75% of projected diesel usage through March 2013 with a range of plus or minus approximately $20 per barrel from the then prevailing oil price of approximately $85 per barrel. This is expected to be a rolling program with future quarterly transactions being put in place to give some protection from large increases in oil prices up to four quarters ahead.
Exports
We continue to expect to export approximately 4.3 million tons for the full year 2012. During the second quarter, Cloud Peak Energy shipped approximately 1 million tons to our Asian customers, bringing the six-month total to 2 million tons. This expected slight reduction in export shipments was due to the completion of our low margin contracts through the Ridley Terminal and reduced capacity at the Westshore Terminal, which successfully completed one of two expansion shutdowns scheduled this year early in the quarter.
Outlook
While the impact of the very warm winter on coal stockpiles and low natural gas prices will take some time to work through, the hot start to the summer is beginning to have a positive impact. Shipments have picked up since April and increased significantly in July as utilities take their contracted coal. Shipments are expected to continue to increase throughout the third quarter. The outlook for coal demand for the rest of the year will depend on remaining summer temperatures, economic growth and the level of gas production and prices.
For 2012, Cloud Peak Energy has contracted to sell 92.6 million tons, of which 90.5 million tons are under fixed-price contracts with a weighted-average price of $13.34 per ton. Assuming current low OTC prices for our contracted but unpriced 2012 tons, our weighted-average price would be $13.23 per ton. As reported last quarter, a small number of our customers had contacted us to discuss reducing 2012 shipments. At this time, we have renegotiated 1.7 million tons, mostly deferred to 2013, and continue discussions with a small number of customers. We are not expecting to make any significant additional sales for delivery in 2012 and will be focusing on working with our customers to help ensure delivery of contracted tonnages. During the second quarter of 2012, our contracted position for 2013 only increased by 6.4 million tons to 81.2 million tons due to limited activity in the markets. Of this committed 2013 production, 68.6 million tons are under fixed-price contracts with a weighted-average price of $13.83 per ton. No additional export sales were contracted during the second quarter as international coal prices weakened.
During the second quarter, the mines concentrated on controlling costs and making sure they were well positioned for the expected increased shipments in the second half of the year. To that end, pre-stripping and reclamation work has been completed and current coal inventories leave us well placed to efficiently meet anticipated increased demand. The impact of recent drops in crude oil prices are beginning to reduce our diesel costs, which should help with second half cost control.
The current regulatory environment is making it increasingly difficult for coal burning utilities to operate existing, or to invest in new, coal power plants. The regulations include the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule, Utility MATS, coal ash regulation and the proposed carbon dioxide new source performance standard, the combined impacts of which are highly uncertain. It is possible some of the regulations will increase demand for low sulfur PRB coal, such as from our Antelope mine; however, we believe the cumulative effect will be to decrease U.S. demand for coal and significantly increase the cost of domestic electricity.
Marshall said, While we knew the second quarter was going to be characterized by low sales and reduced earnings, I am pleased by the way the operations were able to respond. By being fully contracted at the start of the year, reducing the use of contractors and managing overtime, we have been able to work through this period with minimal impact on our underlying operational capability. I am hopeful that a continued hot summer will reduce coal stockpiles and increase
shipments in the second half of the year when hydro generation will be reduced. Our exports are on track for around 4.3 million tons this year, and I am optimistic that international prices will improve by the fourth quarter when 2013 contracts are finalized. The Youngs Creek acquisition is very exciting for us as it gives us many options to develop our mining operations to meet future Asian export demand as terminal capacity is increased.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release and our related presentation include the non-GAAP financial measures of (1) Adjusted EBITDA and (2) Adjusted Earnings Per Share (Adjusted EPS). Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP. A quantitative reconciliation of historical net income to Adjusted EBITDA and EPS (as defined below) to Adjusted EPS is found in the tables accompanying this release.
EBITDA represents net income, or income from continuing operations, as applicable, before (1) interest income (expense) net, (2) income tax provision, (3) depreciation and depletion, (4) amortization, and (5) accretion. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for specifically identified items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. The specifically identified items are the impacts, as applicable, of: (1) the Tax Receivable Agreement including tax impacts of our 2009 initial public offering and 2010 secondary offering, (2) adjustments for derivative financial instruments including unrealized marked-to-market amounts and cash settlements realized, and (3) our significant broker contract that expired in the first quarter of 2010. Because of the inherent uncertainty related to the items identified above, management does not believe it is able to provide a meaningful forecast of the comparable GAAP measures or a reconciliation to any forecasted GAAP measures.
Adjusted EPS represents diluted earnings (loss) per common share attributable to controlling interest, or diluted earnings (loss) per common share attributable to controlling interest from continuing operations, as applicable (EPS), adjusted to exclude the estimated per share impact of the same specifically identified items used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and described above, adjusted at the statutory tax rate of 36%.
Adjusted EBITDA is an additional tool intended to assist our management in comparing our performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision-making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric intended to assist management in evaluating operating performance, comparing performance across periods, planning and forecasting future business operations and helping determine levels of operating and capital investments. Period-to-period comparisons of Adjusted EBITDA are intended to help our management identify and assess additional trends potentially impacting our company that may not be shown solely by period-to-period comparisons of net income or income from continuing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is also used as part of our incentive compensation program for our executive officers and others.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are also useful to investors, analysts and other external users of our consolidated financial statements in evaluating our operating performance from period to period and comparing our performance to similar operating results of other relevant companies. Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to measure a companys operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and depletion, amortization and accretion and other specifically identified items that are not considered to directly reflect our core operations. Similarly, we believe our use of Adjusted EPS provides an appropriate measure to use in assessing our performance across periods given that this measure provides an adjustment for certain specifically identified significant items that are not considered to directly reflect our core operations, the magnitude of which may vary drastically from period to period and, thereby, have a disproportionate effect on the earnings per share reported for a given period.
Our management recognizes that using Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS as performance measures has inherent limitations as compared to net income, income from continuing operations, EPS or other GAAP financial measures, as these non-GAAP measures exclude certain items, including items that are recurring in nature, which may be meaningful to investors. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS should not be considered in isolation and do not purport to be alternatives to net income, income from continuing operations, EPS or other GAAP financial measures as a measure of our operating performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentations of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Moreover, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is different than EBITDA as defined in our debt financing agreements.
