Steam
coal sales include sales to utility and industrial customers. Sales
of
steam coal to industrial customers, who we define as consumers
of steam
coal who do not generate electricity for sale to third parties,
accounted
for approximately 4%, 3% and 4% of total sales in 2006, 2005 and
2004,
respectively.
|
(2)
|
Our
sales of steam coal during 2006 and 2005 were made primarily to
large
utilities and industrial customers in the Eastern region of the
United
States, and our sales of metallurgical coal during those years
were made
primarily to steel companies in the Northeastern and Midwestern
regions of
the United States and in several countries in Europe, Asia and
South
America.

Acid
Rain.
Title IV of the Clean Air Act required a two-phase reduction of
sulfur dioxide emissions by electric utilities. Phase II became
effective in 2000 and applies to all coal-fired power plants generating
greater than 25 Megawatts. Generally, the affected electricity
generators
have sought to meet these requirements by switching to lower sulfur
fuels,
installing pollution control devices, reducing electricity generating
levels or purchasing sulfur dioxide emission allowances. Although
we
cannot accurately predict the future effect of this Clean Air Act
provision on our operations, we believe that implementation of
Phase II has resulted in, and will continue to result in, an upward
pressure on the price of lower sulfur coals, as coal-fired power
plants
continue to comply with the more stringent restrictions of
Title IV.
|
•
|
Fine
Particulate Matter.
The Clean Air Act requires the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(the “EPA”) to set standards, referred to as National Ambient Air Quality
Standards (“NAAQS”), for certain pollutants. Areas that are not in
compliance (referred to as “non-attainment areas”) with these standards
must take steps to reduce emissions levels. For example, NAAQS
currently
exist for particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less
than or
equal to 10 microns, or PM10, and for fine particulate matter with
an
aerodynamic diameter less than or equal 2.5 microns, or PM2.5.
The EPA
designated all or part of 225 counties in 20 states as well as the
District of Columbia as non-attainment areas with respect to the
PM2.5
NAAQS. Individual states must identify the sources of emissions
and
develop emission reduction plans. These plans may be state-specific
or
regional in scope. Under the Clean Air Act, individual states have
up to
twelve years from the date of designation to secure emissions reductions
from sources contributing to the problem. Meeting the new PM2.5
standard
may require reductions of nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide emissions.
Future regulation and enforcement of the new PM2.5 standard will
affect
many power plants, especially coal-fired plants and all plants
in
“non-attainment” areas.
|
•
|
Ozone.
Significant additional emissions control expenditures will be required
at
coal-fired power plants to meet the current NAAQS for ozone. Nitrogen
oxides, which are a by-product of coal combustion, are classified
as an
ozone precursor. Accordingly, emissions control requirements for
new and
expanded coal-fired power plants and industrial boilers will continue
to
become more demanding in the years ahead. For example, in November
2005,
EPA issued a final rule, called the Phase 2 Ozone Rule, describing
the action that states must take to reduce ground level ozone.
The EPA
designated counties in 32 states as non-attainment areas under the
new standard. These states will have until June 2007 to develop
plans,
referred to as state implementation plans or SIPs, for pollution
control
measures that allow them to comply with the
standards.
|
•
|
NOx
SIP Call.
The NOx SIP Call program was established by the EPA in October
1998 to
reduce the transport of ozone on prevailing winds from the Midwest
and
South to states in the Northeast, which said they could not meet
federal
air quality standards because of migrating pollution. The program
is
designed to reduce nitrous oxide emissions by one million tons
per year in
22 eastern states and the District of Columbia. Installation of
additional
control measures, such as selective catalytic reduction devices,
required
under the final rules will make it more costly to operate coal-fired
electricity generating plants, thereby making coal a less attractive
fuel.
|
•
|
Clean
Air Interstate Rule.
The EPA finalized the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) on
March 10, 2005. The new CAIR calls for power plants in 29 eastern
states and the District of Columbia to reduce emission levels of
sulfur
dioxide and nitrous oxide. The rule requires states to regulate
power
plants under a cap and trade program similar to the system now
in effect
for acid deposition control and to that proposed by the Clear Skies
Initiative. When fully implemented, this rule is expected to reduce
regional sulfur dioxide emissions by over 70% and nitrogen oxides
emissions by over 60% from 2003 levels. The stringency of the cap
may
require many coal-fired electricity generation plants to install
additional pollution control equipment, such as wet scrubbers,
which could
decrease the demand for low sulfur coal at these plants and thereby
potentially reduce market prices for low sulfur coal. Emissions
are
permanently capped and cannot increase. The rule is also subject
to
judicial challenge, which makes its impact difficult to
assess.
|
•
|
Clean
Air Mercury Rule.
On March15, 2005, the EPA issued the Clean Air Mercury Rule to
permanently
cap and reduce mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants.
The Clean
Air Mercury Rule establishes mercury emissions limits from new
and
existing coal-fired power plants and creates a market-based cap-and-trade
program that is expected to reduce nationwide utility emissions
of mercury
in two phases. Stricter limitations on mercury emissions from power
plants
may adversely affect the demand for coal. In 2006, EPA proposed
a federal
plan to directly regulate mercury emissions from coal-fired power
plants
where certain states have not provided their own
plans.
|
•
|
Carbon
Dioxide.
In February 2003, a number of states notified the EPA that they
planned to
sue the agency to force it to set new source performance standards
for
utility emissions of carbon dioxide and to tighten existing standards
for
sulfur dioxide and particulate matter for utility emissions. In
June 2003,
three of these states sued the EPA seeking a court order requiring
the EPA
to designate carbon dioxide as a criteria pollutant and to issue
a new
NAAQS for carbon dioxide. In February 2004, EPA entered into a
consent
decree with parties including the states that had given notice
of intent
to sue in 2003 to compel the Agency to set new source performance
standards. Under the consent decree, EPA promulgated final amendments
to
the new source performance standards for utility and industrial
boilers in
February 2006. In April 2006, ten states, the District of Columbia,
and
New York City petitioned the United States Court of Appeals for
the
District of Columbia Circuit for review of those new source performance
standards for utility and industrial boilers, claiming that the
EPA
improperly refused to regulate carbon dioxide as a criteria pollutant
and
that the standards for sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are
insufficient. In June 2006, the United States Court of Appeals
heard oral
argument in a public nuisance action filed by eight states (Connecticut,
Delaware, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, and Vermont)
and New
York City to curb carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. In
November
2006, the United States Supreme Court heard oral argument in a
case that
commenced in June 2003 challenging the EPA’s refusal to regulate carbon
dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions from new motor vehicles
on the
ground that it lacks the authority to list carbon dioxide as a
criteria
pollutant. If these lawsuits result in the issuance of a court
order
requiring the EPA to set emission limitations for carbon dioxide,
this in
turn could reduce the amount of coal our customers would purchase
from us.
|
•
|
Regional
Emissions Trading.
In December 2005, seven Northeastern states (Connecticut, Delaware,
Maine,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, and Vermont) signed the Regional
Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) Agreement, calling for a ten percent
reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by 2019, with compliance
to begin
January 1, 2009. Maryland signed onto RGGI in July 2006. The RGGI
final
model rule was issued on August 15, 2006, and participating states
are
developing their state rules. Climate change developments are also
taking
place on the west coast in California. In September 2006, California
adopted greenhouse gas legislation that prohibits long-term base-load
generation from having a greenhouse gas emissions rate greater
than that
of a combined cycle natural gas generator and that allows for long-term
deals with generators that sequester carbon emissions. In October
2006, a
trading partnership between California and the states participating
in
RGGI was announced. In December 2006, the California Public Utility
Commission proposed regulations proposing to set a 1,000 lb/MWh
carbon
dioxide emission standard. The California Public Utility Commission
is
expected to adopt final regulations implementing California’s greenhouse
gas legislation for investor-owned utilities in February 2007.
These and
other state climate change rules will likely require additional
controls
on coal-fired utilities and industrial boilers and may even cause
some
users of our coal to switch from coal to a lower carbon fuel. There
can be
no assurance at this time that a carbon dioxide cap and trade program,
if
implemented by the states where our customers operate, will not
affect the
future market for coal in this
region.
|
•
|
Regional
Haze.
The EPA has initiated a regional haze program designed to protect
and to
improve visibility at and around national parks, national wilderness
areas
and international parks. Each state affected by this EPA program
must
develop and submit to EPA by mid-2007 a plan to achieve the goals
of the
program. The program may result in additional emissions restrictions
from
new coal-fired power plants whose operation may impair visibility
at and
around federally protected areas. Moreover, this program may require
certain existing coal-fired power plants to install additional
control
measures designed to limit haze-causing emissions, such as sulfur
dioxide,
nitrogen oxides, volatile organic chemicals and particulate matter.
These
limitations could affect the future market for
coal.
|
•
|
Wastewater
Discharge Act.
Section 402 of the CWA establishes in-stream water quality criteria
and treatment standards for wastewater discharge through the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”). Regular monitoring and
compliance with reporting requirements and performance standards
are
preconditions for the issuance and renewal of NPDES permits that
govern
the discharge of pollutants into water. The imposition of future
restrictions on the discharge of certain pollutants into waters
of the
United States could affect the permitting process, increase the
costs and
difficulty of obtaining and complying with NPDES permits and could
adversely affect our coal
production.
|
•
|
Dredge
and Fill Permits Act:
Many mining activities, such as the development of refuse impoundments,
fresh water impoundments, refuse fills, valley fills, and other
similar
structures, may result in impacts to Jurisdictional Waters. Jurisdictional
Waters typically include wetlands, streams (including intermittent
streams
and their tributaries) and may, in certain instances, include man-made
conveyances that have a hydrologic connection to such streams or
wetlands.
Prior to conducting such mining activities in jurisdictional waters,
coal
companies are required to obtain a Section 404 authorization (referred
to
as a dredge or fill permit) from the Army Corps of Engineers (“COE”). The
COE is authorized to issue two types of Section 404 permits: a
general
permit referred to as a nationwide permit, more specifically a
Nationwide
Permit 21 (“NWP 21”) for surface mining activities and an individual
permit. The COE may issue nationwide permits for any category of
activities involving the discharge of dredge or fill material if
the COE
determines that such activities are similar in nature and will
cause only
minimal adverse environmental effects individually or cumulatively.
Generally, the COE has used the NWP 21 to authorize impacts to
jurisdictional waters from mining activities because the NWP process
is a
more streamlined permitting approach and consumes less COE resources.

Recoverable
reserves represent the amount of proven and probable reserves that
can
actually be recovered taking into account all mining and preparation
losses involved in producing a saleable product using existing
methods
under current law. The reserve numbers set forth in the table exclude
reserves for which we have leased our mining rights to third parties.
Reserve information reflects a moisture factor of 6.5%. This moisture
factor represents the average moisture present on our delivered
coal.

Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by
the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the
periods. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net
income or
loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and
dilutive
common stock equivalents outstanding during the periods. Common
stock
equivalents include the number of shares issuable on exercise of
outstanding options less the number of shares that could have been
purchased with the proceeds from the exercise of the options based
on the
average price of common stock during the period. Due to the Internal
Restructuring on February 11, 2005 and initial public offering of
common stock completed on February 18, 2005, the calculation of
earnings per share for 2005, 2004, and 2003 reflects certain adjustments,
as described below.
|
|
|
The
numerator for purposes of computing basic and diluted net income
(loss)
per share, as adjusted, includes the reported net income (loss)
and a pro
forma adjustment for income taxes to reflect the pro forma income
taxes
for ANR Fund IX Holdings, L.P.’s portion of reported pre-tax income
(loss), which would have been recorded if the issuance of the shares
of
common stock received by the FR Affiliates in exchange for their
ownership
in ANR Holdings in connection with the Internal Restructuring had
occurred
as of January 1, 2003. For purposes of the computation of basic and
diluted net income (loss) per share, as adjusted, the pro forma
adjustment
for income taxes only applies to the percentage interest owned
by ANR
Fund IX Holding, L.P., the non-taxable FR Affiliate. No pro forma
adjustment for income taxes is required for the percentage interest
owned
by Alpha NR Holding, Inc., the taxable FR Affiliate, because income
taxes
have already been recorded in the historical results of operations.
Furthermore, no pro forma adjustment to reported net income (loss)
is
necessary subsequent to February 11, 2005 because we are
subject to income taxes.
|
|
|
The
denominator for purposes of computing basic net income (loss) per
share,
as adjusted, reflects the retroactive impact of the common shares
received
by the FR Affiliates in exchange for their ownership in ANR Holdings
in
connection with the Internal Restructuring on a weighted-average
outstanding share basis as being outstanding as of January 1, 2003.
The common shares issued to the minority interest owners of ANR
Holdings
in connection with the Internal Restructuring, including the immediately
vested shares granted to management, have been reflected as being
outstanding as of February 11, 2005 for purposes of computing the
basic net income (loss) per share, as adjusted. The unvested shares
granted to management on February 11, 2005 that vest monthly over the
two-year period from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2006 are
included in the basic net income (loss) per share, as adjusted,
computation as they vest on a weighted-average outstanding share
basis
starting on February 11, 2005. The 33,925,000 new shares issued in
connection with the initial public offering have been reflected
as being
outstanding since February 14, 2005, the date of the initial public
offering, for purposes of computing the basic net income (loss)
per share,
as adjusted.
|
|
|
The
unvested shares issued to management are considered options for
purposes
of computing diluted net income (loss) per share, as adjusted.
Therefore,
for diluted purposes, all remaining unvested shares granted to
management
are added to the denominator subsequent to February 11, 2005 using
the treasury stock method, if the effect is dilutive. In addition,
the
treasury stock method is used for outstanding stock options, if
dilutive,
beginning with the November 10, 2004 grant of options to management
to purchase units in ACM that were automatically converted into
options to
purchase up to 596,985 shares of Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. common
stock at an exercise price of $12.73 per
share.

transactions as if each of these transactions had occurred on
January 1, 2004: the Nicewonder Acquisition and related debt
refinancing in October 2005, the Internal Restructuring and initial
public
offering in February 2005, the issuance in May 2004 of $175.0 million
principal amount of 10% senior notes due 2012, and the entry into a

EBITDA
is defined as net income (loss) plus interest expense, income tax
expense
(benefit), depreciation, depletion and amortization, less interest
income.
EBITDA, as adjusted is EBITDA, further adjusted for minority interest.
EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, are non-GAAP measures used by management
to measure operating performance, and management also believes
it is a
useful indicator of our ability to meet debt service and capital
expenditure requirements. Because EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted,
are not
calculated identically by all companies, our calculation may not
be
comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies.

Long-term
debt and capital leases include principal amounts due in the years
shown.
Interest payable on these obligations, with interest rates ranging
between
8.0% and 12.15% on our loans and capital leases, would be approximately
$37.3 million in 2007, $74.1 million in 2008 to 2009,
$73.0 million in 2010 to 2011, and $26.0 million after
2011.

Discount
Rate.
SFAS No. 143 requires that asset retirement obligations be
recorded at fair value. In accordance with the provisions of
SFAS No. 143, we utilize discounted cash flow techniques to
estimate the fair value of our obligations. We base our discount
rate on
the rates of treasury bonds with maturities similar to expected
mine
lives, adjusted for our credit
standing.
|
•
|
Third-Party
Margin.
SFAS No. 143 requires the measurement of an obligation to be
based upon the amount a third party would demand to assume the
obligation.
Because we plan to perform a significant amount of the reclamation
activities with internal resources, a third-party margin was added
to the
estimated costs of these activities. This margin was estimated
based upon
our historical experience with contractors performing similar types
of
reclamation activities. The inclusion of this margin will result
in a
recorded obligation that is greater than our estimates of our cost
to
perform the reclamation activities. If our cost estimates are accurate,
the excess of the recorded obligation over the cost incurred to
perform
the work will be recorded as a gain at the time that reclamation
work is
completed.

Alpha
Coal Management, LLC (ACM) was dissolved and liquidated, after which
(1) the interests in ANR Holdings previously held by ACM were
distributed to and held directly by the Company’s officers and employees
who were owners of ACM prior to its dissolution and (2) outstanding
options to purchase units in ACM were automatically converted into
options
to purchase up to 596,985 shares
of Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. common stock at an exercise price
of
$12.73 per share, and Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. assumed the
obligations of ACM under the Alpha Coal Management, LLC 2004 Long-Term
Incentive Plan.
|
|
|
•
|
Alpha
Natural Resources, Inc. assumed the obligations of ANR Holdings
to make
distributions to (1) affiliates of AMCI in an aggregate amount of
$6,000, representing the approximate incremental tax resulting
from the
recognition of additional tax liability resulting from the Internal
Restructuring and (2) First Reserve Fund IX, L.P. in an
aggregate amount of approximately $4,500, representing the approximate
value of tax attributes conveyed as a result of the Internal Restructuring
(collectively, the Sponsor Distributions). The Sponsor Distributions
to
affiliates of AMCI were paid in cash in five equal installments
on the
dates for which estimated income tax payments are due in each of
April
2005, June 2005, September 2005, January 2006 and April 2006. The
Sponsor
Distributions to First Reserve Fund IX, L.P. are payable in three
installments of approximately $2,100, $2,100 and $300 on December 15,
2007, 2008 and 2009, respectively. The Sponsor Distributions will
be
payable in cash or, to the extent Alpha Natural Resources, Inc.
is not
permitted by the terms of the senior credit facility or the indenture
governing the senior notes to pay the Sponsor Distributions in
cash, in
shares of Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. common
stock.
|
|
|
•
|
First
Reserve Fund IX, L.P., the direct parent of Alpha NR Holding, Inc.,
contributed all of the outstanding common stock of Alpha NR Holding,
Inc.
to Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. in exchange for 12,462,992 shares of
Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. common stock and demand promissory
notes in
an aggregate adjusted principal amount of
$206,734.

|
ANR
Fund IX Holdings, L.P., Madison Capital Funding, LLC and affiliates
of AMCI contributed all of their membership interests in ANR Holdings

Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. common stock and demand promissory
notes in
an aggregate adjusted principal amount of
$310,958.

|
|
•
|
The
officers and employees who were the members of ACM contributed
all of
their interests in ANR Holdings to Alpha Natural Resources, Inc.
in
exchange for 2,772,157 shares of Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. common
stock. Of these shares, 82,297 were for the officers’ and employees’
purchased interest. One half of the remainder, 1,344,930 shares,
were
immediately vested and resulted in compensation expense being recorded
at
$19 per share (based upon the initial public offering price for
the
Company’s stock on February 18, 2005), or $25,554 in total. The
remaining 1,344,930 shares vested over the two year period ending
December 31, 2006. The $25,554 in compensation expense related to
these shares was deferred and amortized to expense over the vesting
period
through December 31, 2006.
|
|
|
•
|
The
Board of Directors of Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. declared a
pro rata
distribution to the former members of ANR Holdings in an aggregate
amount
equal to the net proceeds Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. received
upon the
exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option with
respect
to the public offering described
below.
|
•
|
The
Company, the FR Affiliates and affiliates of AMCI amended certain
of the
post-closing arrangements previously entered into as part of the
Company’s
acquisition of U.S. AMCI.

Alpha
Natural Resources, Inc. contributed the membership interests in
ANR
Holdings received in the Internal Restructuring to Alpha NR Holding,
