Alliance Resource Partners — Jul 27, 2026 release

"During the quarter, we continued to add to our sales book by securing an additional 21.2 million committed and priced coal sales tons over the 2026 to 2031 time period. Our expected 2026 coal sales tons are essentially fully committed at the midpoint of guidance, and we now have 29.4 million tons committed and priced for 2027 delivery. We believe this level of forward commitment reflects both the strategic importance of our coal supply and the confidence customers place in ARLP’s ability to deliver." Mr. Craft concluded, "We are increasing our full-year oil & gas royalties volume guidance to reflect the contribution of the AllDale III & IV acquisition beginning in the third quarter of 2026. Similar to our coal segment, we believe our Oil & Gas Royalties segment is well-positioned to meaningfully increase production and cash flow generation during the second half of this year. Looking ahead, our strategy within this segment is focused on reducing leverage, maintaining financial flexibility, and pursuing disciplined acquisition opportunities that enhance long-term unitholder value."
