Alpha Metallurgical Resources (ISIN US0207641061) closed at USD 171.54 on the NYSE on October 2, 2026, after the latest quarter showed a net loss of USD 12.3 million. Investing.com reports that Alpha's Q2 2026 revenue reached USD 492.86 million, while the company managed operations through weaker metallurgical coal pricing and terminal disruption.
Q2 loss follows lower sales
Alpha reported adjusted EPS of negative USD 0.96 and adjusted EBITDA of USD 25.6 million for Q2 2026, according to Investing.com. Adjusted EBITDA fell from USD 30.0 million in Q1, while metallurgical coal shipments declined to 3.5 million tons from 3.9 million tons in Q2 2025.
The quarter also showed the pressure on pricing. Alpha's weighted average realization for metallurgical sales was USD 118.71 per ton, down from USD 124.39 per ton in Q1 2026, while coal sales costs stood at USD 103.07 per ton.
Guidance reflects terminal damage
Quartr says Alpha's 2026 guidance calls for 13.2 million to 14.0 million tons of metallurgical coal and 1.0 million to 1.4 million tons of thermal coal. Met segment cost guidance is USD 103 to USD 107 per ton, while 70 percent to 73 percent of expected metallurgical shipments are committed at USD 128.17 per ton.
The company held USD 307.6 million in cash at June 30, 2026, and Q2 operating cash flow was USD 39.9 million. A storm-related disruption at the Dominion Terminal Associates facility remains a central operating factor in the shipment outlook.
