· | Produced coal revenue increased 25 percent to $681.0 million |
· | Total coal tons produced increased by 14 percent |
· | Produced coal tons sold increased by 12 percent |

Richmond, Virginia, April 28, 2009 - Massey Energy Company (NYSE: MEE) today reported that produced coal revenue for the first quarter of 2009 increased by 25 percent to $681.0 million which represents a first quarter record. The improved revenue results were achieved as produced coal tons sold increased by 12 percent and produced coal revenue per ton also increased by 12 percent as compared to the first quarter of 2008. On the strong sales, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) totaled $145.4 million, an increase of 13 percent compared to EBITDA of $129.2 million in the first quarter of 2008. Net income for the quarter totaled $43.4 million compared to $41.9 million in the same period a year ago.
Commenting on the Company’s first quarter results, Massey’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Don Blankenship said, “We were pleased to start off the year with strong sales and earnings. Our total tons produced increased significantly year-over-year for the fourth straight quarter as a result of last year’s expansions. The strong quarter was on track to meet our full year production targets. In addition, our cash cost per ton, while higher than last year, was essentially on plan for the quarter.”
“Market demand and pricing remained weak, however,” Blankenship continued. “Continuing weakness in the global economy has reduced demand for electric power and steel, thereby reducing demand for coal. Our metallurgical coal shipments were lower than we had anticipated in terms of both volume and price and this was the major reason for our cash margins being lower than planned.”
Massey’s first quarter operating cash margin per ton was $10.48 compared to $10.74 in the first quarter of 2008 as increased cash costs offset higher revenue per ton. Average cash cost per ton for the first quarter was
$52.55 compared to $45.62 in the first quarter of 2008. The increase was due largely to higher sales related and operating costs, particularly labor costs.
The reported net income for the first quarter included the recognition of $12.2 million in pre-tax income ($5.1 million benefit recorded in Cost of purchased coal revenue and $7.1 million in interest income) from the receipt of black lung excise tax refunds as authorized by federal legislation passed in October 2008.

Expansion Update
The construction of Massey’s new processing plant at the Coalgood resource group in Harlan County Kentucky continued through the first quarter as planned and is now nearing completion. The Company now anticipates the plant will be capable of full production by mid-May. Additionally, Massey acquired and deployed two new highwall miners during the quarter. There are no further expansion projects anticipated through the remainder of 2009.
Coal Market Overview
The continuing global economic crisis has caused a significant deterioration of world coal markets. Coal contracting and shipment activities remained slow as end market coal consumers further reduced production and power generation targets.
· | Eastern U.S. steam coal prices declined during the first quarter of 2009. |
· | Energy Ventures Analysis estimates that coal burn at utilities in the Southeastern United States was down 18 percent in the first quarter of 2009 due in part to lower overall electric power demand and some switching to natural gas. Receipts of coal at Southeastern utilities were down 4 percent in the same period. Coal stockpiles in terms of tons increased by about 15 percent in the region during the first three months of 2009. |
· | The Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects that coal-fired generation in the domestic electric power sector will decline by approximately 3 percent in 2009 due to lower overall electric power demand and an increase of about 2 percent in generation fueled by natural gas. |
· | Steam coal export volumes by U.S. producers increased 29 percent in the first two months of 2009. Metallurgical coal exports declined 7 percent in the same period. The EIA forecasts, however, that total coal exports will decline by about 11 percent for the full year as the weak global economy and a relatively strong U.S. Dollar are combining to reduce the demand for U.S. steam coal and metallurgical coal in international markets. |
· | According to the World Steel Association, global steel output declined 23 percent in the first two months of 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008. |
· | The EIA expects the coal industry to respond to the weak market conditions by reducing production by about 5 percent in 2009. According to EIA estimates, total U.S. coal production was down about 2 percent in the first two months of the year. Production in Central Appalachia was down about 5 percent in the same period. |
In spite of the current weak market conditions, Massey continues to believe the following factors will contribute to a supply/demand balance that is favorable to Central Appalachian coal producers in the longer term:
· | Total Central Appalachian coal production is constrained by increasing environmental and safety regulatory requirements and enforcement activity as well as depleting reserves. |
· | The quality of Central Appalachia coal allows it to enjoy significant market diversity and its proximity to sea ports makes it a viable source of coal to fill the growing demand for energy throughout most of the world. |
· | Economic expansion continues in the world’s largest developing countries. In the longer term, this economic development will drive higher demand for steel and sustain the global demand for metallurgical coal produced in Central Appalachia. |
Cost Cutting Measures
In response to the current market conditions, Massey has taken meaningful action to reduce overall costs and expects to see measurable cost improvement going forward. These actions include the idling of several higher cost mines, limitation of overtime, selective general and administrative cost reductions, renegotiation of supply contracts, and the implementation of significant wage and benefit reductions beginning on May 1, 2009. Additional cost cutting initiatives are under way.
In addition, meaningful productivity increases are expected as Massey’s new mines and work forces mature.
Shipment Deferrals
Increasing coal stockpiles and weak demand for electric power generation and steel production in both domestic and international markets have created challenges among Massey’s customer base to accept shipments of coal according to contracted schedules. Massey is working with its customers to modify shipment schedules and amend contract terms where necessary.
Shipment deferrals will allow Massey to selectively reduce production at higher cost mining operations in 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Massey ended the first quarter of 2009 with $566.7 million in Cash and cash equivalents. This compared to $607.0 million at December 31, 2008. In addition, the Company had $24.9 million invested in the Reserve Primary Fund at the quarter’s end, which is classified as a short-term investment as the availability of these funds remains subject to the liquidation of the underlying assets of the Fund. The Company had $99.5 million available under its asset-based revolving credit facility at March 31, 2009.
Total debt at March 31, 2009 was $1,316.4 million compared to $1,312.2 million at December 31, 2008. Massey's total debt-to-book capitalization ratio was 52.9 percent at March 31, 2009 compared to 53.8 percent at December 31, 2008. After deducting available cash and short-term investments of $591.6 million and restricted cash of $46.0 million, which supports letters of credit, net debt totaled $678.8 million. Total net debt-to-book capitalization was 36.7 percent at March 31, 2009 compared to 35.5 percent at December 31, 2008. (December 31, 2008 amounts have been adjusted to conform with accounting guidance related to the Company’s 3.25% convertible notes. See note 5 in the attached financial statements.)
Capital expenditures for the first quarter 2009 totaled $103.7 million compared to $123.5 million in 2008. For the full year 2009 Massey currently expects CAPEX of $300 million or less.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) was $72.6 million in the first quarter 2009 compared to $60.2 million in the first quarter of 2008. DD&A is expected to be in the range of $280 million to $290 million for the full year 2009.
Outlook, Guidance and Commitments
The ongoing economic turmoil, the global financial crisis and the uncertain regulatory environment make it more difficult than usual to forecast coal prices and coal demand with a high degree of accuracy. Coal markets and the financial condition of both coal producers and coal consumers could change rapidly in this environment. In consideration of this fact and current expectations for shipment deferrals on existing contracts, the Company projects produced coal shipments for the full year 2009 will be between 38 and 41 million tons, with average produced coal realization between $60.00 and $63.00 per ton. Guidance for average cash cost per ton in 2009 remains unchanged and is expected to be between $50.00 and $53.00. Other income is expected to be between $40 and $80 million.
For 2010, Massey presently has approximately 20 million tons of coal sold and priced, 2 million tons sold with pricing collars and 8 million tons sold but currently unpriced. Based on management’s current market views, Massey’s produced coal shipments for 2010 are currently expected to be in the range of 35 to 40 million tons, with average sales prices in the range of $60.00 to $65.00 per ton. Cash cost per ton is anticipated to be in the range of $48.00 to $52.00. The Company also anticipates significantly reducing capital expenditures to a range of $100 to $200 million for the full year 2010. With results in these ranges, the Company believes it would generate solid positive free cash flow for the year.
“As in past periods of market decline or uncertainty, we are well positioned in terms of our balance sheet, our market position, our far superior reserve holdings, and our operating performance to increase our competitive advantages in Central Appalachia,” Blankenship stated. “In this market we anticipate opportunities to
possibly to expand our exposure in other regions or in non-core businesses to further increase sustainable shareholder value,” he concluded.

Note 1: The number of shares used to calculate basic net income per share is based on the weighted average outstanding shares of Massey Energy during the respective periods. The number of shares used to calculate diluted net income per share is based on the number of shares used to calculate basic net income per share plus the dilutive effect of stock options and other stock-based instruments held by Massey Energy employees and directors each period and debt securities convertible into common stock. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the effect of certain dilutive securities was excluded from the calculation of the diluted net income per share in the three months ended March 31, 2009, and March 31, 2008, as such inclusion would result in antidilution.
Note 2: "Gain on derivative instruments" for the three months ended March 31, 2009, represents the net gain for certain coal contracts deemed derivative instruments under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments," ("SFAS 133"). Contracts that qualify as derivatives under SFAS 133 are recognized at fair value and changes to their value are recognized as gains or losses in the current period earnings.
Note 3: "EBIT" is defined as Income before interest and taxes. "EBITDA" is defined as Income before interest and taxes before deducting Depreciation, depletion, and amortization (“DD&A”). Although neither EBIT nor EBITDA are measures of performance calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), we believe that both measures are useful to an investor in evaluating us because they are widely used in the coal industry as measures to evaluate a company’s operating performance before debt expense and as a measure of its cash flow. Neither EBIT nor EBITDA purport to represent operating income, net income or cash generated by operating activities and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because neither EBIT nor EBITDA are calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The table below reconciles the GAAP measure of Net income to EBIT and to EBITDA. December 31, 2008 amounts have been restated in accordance with accounting guidance related to the 3.25% Notes, effective January 1, 2009 (see Note 5 below).

Note 4: "Average cash cost per ton" is calculated as the sum of Cost of produced coal revenue and Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) (excluding DD&A), divided by the number of produced tons sold. Although Average cash cost per ton is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, we believe that it is useful to investors in evaluating us because it is widely used in the coal industry as a measure to evaluate a company’s control over its cash costs. Average cash cost per ton should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Average cash cost per ton is not calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Note 5: On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Staff Position ("FSP") Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” ("FSP APB 14-1") for the 3.25% Notes issued in August 2008. This FSP indicated that convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion, including partial cash settlement, should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that reflects the Company's nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. Upon adopting FSP APB 14-1, the provisions were retroactively applied. As a result, $4.5 million of additional non-cash interest expense was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company's debt is comprised of the following:

Note 8: "Operating cash margin per ton" is calculated as the difference between Produced coal revenue per ton sold (Produced coal revenue divided by Total produced tons sold) and Average cash cost per ton (computed in Note 4). Although Operating cash margin per ton is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, management believes that it is useful to an investor in evaluating Massey Energy because it is widely used in the coal industry as a measure to evaluate a company's profitability from produced tons sold. Operating cash margin per ton should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Operating cash margin per ton may not be calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The table below reconciles the GAAP measure of Produced coal revenue to Operating cash margin per ton.

Note 9: "Other income" is calculated as the sum of Purchased coal revenue and Other revenue less Cost of purchased coal revenue and Other expense. Although Other income is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, management believes that it is useful to investors in evaluating Massey Energy because it is a widely used measure of gross income from non-core sources. Other income should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Other income is not calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The table below reconciles the GAAP measure of Other revenue to Other income.
