Exhibit 99.1
Peabody Provides Update on Centurion Metallurgical Coal Mine Development
Integrated Mine Plan Complete with Estimated Net Present Value of $1.6 billion
Average Annual Production of 4.7 Million Tons at First Quartile Cost and Mine Life of 25+ years


ST. LOUIS October 11, 2024/PR Newswire/-- Peabody (NYSE: BTU) today provided an investor presentation on project development and the related integrated mine plan at Centurion, the Company’s premium low volatile hard coking coal project located in Australia’s Bowen Basin. The Company will hold a conference call on Monday, October 14, 2024, at 3:00 p.m. CST to share a comprehensive update on Peabody’s development of Centurion. To watch the event live or access a replay, please visit www.peabodyenergy.com.

Centurion is quickly becoming the cornerstone metallurgical coal asset in Peabody’s global coal portfolio, unlocking substantial, untapped reserves and repositioning Peabody as primarily a metallurgical coal producer. “The development of Centurion is a key strategic priority to maximize shareholder value and reweight our portfolio and long-term cashflows to metallurgical coal,” Jim Grech, Peabody’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said. “Combined with Peabody’s diversified portfolio, resilient balance sheet, fully funded reclamation obligations and robust shareholder return program, Peabody is uniquely positioned as a leading global coal producer.”

Thus far, two continuous miner units have been commissioned and the mine successfully produced its first development coal in June. The prep plant successfully washed its first coal and moved it to stockpile via the overhead belts in September. Peabody expects to commission a third continuous miner and ship the first cargo of coal in the fourth quarter.

Centurion is set to significantly enhance Peabody’s metallurgical coal production with average volume of 4.7 million tons per year at expected costs of $105 per ton over the twenty-five plus year life of the mine. Centurion will also reposition the metallurgical coal portfolio toward higher quality premium met coals.

“We anticipate demand for premium hard coking coals to grow significantly,” Malcolm Roberts, Peabody’s Chief Marketing Officer, said. “While demand for this product continues to grow, new projects are increasingly rare, making Centurion’s product highly sought after.”

At September 30, 2024, Peabody has completed approximately $250 million of the anticipated $489 million of initial development capital to achieve longwall production in March 2026. With a $210 per metric ton benchmark price assumption, Centurion has an estimated net present value of $1.6 billion and a 25 percent internal rate of return.

“Peabody is committed to increasing shareholder value through a balanced approach of maximizing shareholder returns and developing Centurion,” Mark Spurbeck, Peabody’s Chief Financial Officer, said. “Centurion provides increased optionality to tightening metallurgical coal markets and will be a strategic asset in Peabody’s global coal portfolio for decades.”

Concurrent with this release, Peabody has issued a presentation on the Centurion project that can be found on the investor section of www.peabodyenergy.com.

2 28 Appendix


 
29 Centurion Royalties • Centurion is subject to the Queensland Government Royalty charged on total revenue. Queensland Government royalties are based on coal prices per tonne (in $A). • Centurion South is subject to a special private royalty agreement established in relation to the sale of the property by a prior owner. This special royalty is limited to production from the Goonyella Middle Seam (GMS) within a defined area. The royalty, paid annually, amounts to 20% of the nominal before-tax cashflow attributable to sales from the defined area less capex, and any accumulated losses (since the original sale process was completed in CY2000). • Centurion North (Wards Well) tenements, is subject to a price- linked royalty payable to the prior owner on the first 120Mt of product coal mined from the area, capped at US$200M. Peabody will only commence making payments once it has recovered its upfront investment in the development of Centurion North. • All royalties have been considered in the financial analysis. Average price per tonne for period Rate Up to and including $100 7% Over $100 and up to and including $150 First $100: Balance: 7% 12.5% More than $150 and up to and including $175 First $100: Next $50: Balance: 7% 12.5% 15% More than $175 and up to and including $225 First $100: Next $50: Next $25: Balance: 7% 12.5% 15% 20% More than $225 and up to and including $300 First $100: Next $50: Next $25: Next $50: Balance: 7% 12.5% 15% 20% 30% More than $300 First $100: Next $50: Next $25: Next $50: Next $75: Balance: 7% 12.5% 15% 20% 30% 40% Queensland Government Royalty Rates


 
30 Australian Safeguard Mechanism • Centurion Mine is subject to the Australian Safeguard Mechanism, which requires • Determination and assurance of a site-specific emission intensity • Annual reductions in emissions, aligned with Australian greenhouse gas emission reduction targets • Retirement of offsets, in the form of Australian Carbon Credit Units, for emissions exceeding annual baseline • Multiple mitigation measures are being considered, from concept to operationalization, including • Capture of goaf gas for flaring / power generation • Gas drainage and enhanced flaring, power generation, and sale into pipeline • Regenerative thermal oxidation

32 Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures Note: Management believes that non-GAAP performance measures are used by investors to measure our operating performance. These measures are not intended to serve as alternatives to U.S. GAAP measures of performance and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. Note: Certain forward-looking measures and metrics presented are non-GAAP financial and operating/statistical measures. Due to the volatility and variability of certain items needed to reconcile these measures to their nearest GAAP measure, no reconciliation can be provided without unreasonable cost or effort. (1) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income from continuing operations before deducting net interest expense, income taxes, asset retirement obligation expenses and depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is also adjusted for the discrete items that management excluded in analyzing each of our segment's operating performance as displayed in the reconciliation above. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as the primary metric to measure each of our segment's operating performance and allocate resources.
