  • Corsa's average realized price for the fourth quarter 2021 is the approximate equivalent of between $195 to $200 per metric ton on an FOB vessel basis(2). For the fourth quarter 2021, Corsa's sales mix included 58% of sales to domestic customers and 42% of sales to international customers.

This is a non-GAAP financial measure.  See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

(2) 

Similar to most U.S. metallurgical coal producers, Corsa reports sales and costs per ton on an FOB mine site basis and denominated in short tons.  Many international metallurgical coal producers report prices and costs on a delivered-to-the-port basis (or "FOB vessel basis"), thereby including freight costs between the mine and the port.  Additionally, Corsa reports sales and costs per short ton, which is approximately 10% lower than a metric ton.  For the purposes of this figure, we have used an illustrative freight rate of $45-$50 per short ton.  Historically, freight rates rise and fall as market prices rise and fall.  As a note, most published indices for metallurgical coal report prices on a delivered-to-the-port basis and denominated in metric tons.

Kevin M. Harrigan, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer of Corsa, commented, "Our fourth quarter 2021 results reflect the continuation of the challenging mining conditions and labor-related productivity issues that we experienced in the second and third quarters of the year.  The second half of 2021 was one of the most challenging periods in the history of our company for production and costs, but I know that our talented team is committed to overcoming these issues and is focused on the actions needed to return to normal production levels and costs in 2022." 

"Our results do reflect the impacts of significant issues that are common across the coal mining and manufacturing industries.  The shortage of experienced and skilled labor and increased COVID-19 related absenteeism have and continue to limit our production capabilities.  Our cash production costs were driven higher by increased prices for purchased goods and services as well as limited availability of outside labor, parts, and supplies.  The logistical performance issues that are common across our industry alter or delay deliveries of coal to our customers and impact our commercial results."  

"Fortunately, in the fourth quarter of 2021, Corsa began to realize stronger market prices for coal sales and materially completed our fourth quarter 2021 contract commitments which were made earlier in 2021 before the dramatic increase in metallurgical coal prices.  We expect to recognize the full impact of higher priced sales in 2022 as realizations improve significantly over the 2021 contract and spot market prices, and believe that our focus, actions and commitments will generate improved returns for our shareholders."

Coal Pricing Trends and Outlook

Price levels opened the fourth quarter 2021 at $390.00/metric ton ("mt") delivered-to-the-port ("FOBT") for spot deliveries of Australian premium low volatile metallurgical coal and closed the quarter at $357.25/mt FOBT. The quarterly average price for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $368.92/mt FOBT for Australian premium low volatile metallurgical coal, compared to $263.66/ mt FOBT in the third quarter of 2021, and traded in a range from a high of $403.00/mt FOBT to a low of $315.50/mt FOBT.

The World Steel Association reported that through December, global crude steel production increased by 3.6% in 2021 versus 2020 with the U.S. up 18.3%, India up 17.8%, Japan up 14.9%, Brazil up 14.7%, Turkey up 12.7%, Germany up 12.3%, Russia up 6.1%, South Korea up 5.2%, and China down 3.0%. The largest regional increases were recognized in Africa at 26.7%, South America at 17.8%, North America at 19.2%, and European Union at 15.4%. All other regions recorded year-over-year increases.  According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (the "EIA"), U.S. metallurgical coal exports in 2021 totaled 47.2 million tons as compared to 42.1 million tons in 2020, for an increase of 12.1%, and domestic coke plant coal consumption was 17.8 million tons in 2021 as compared to 14.4 million tons in 2020 for an increase of 23.3%.  Hot-rolled steel coil prices decreased in the fourth quarter from the highs recorded earlier in the year as production decreased in China due to regulatory controls and market demand for steel products normalized. From the beginning of 2021 through the end of the year, hot-rolled steel coil prices rose 55%, 39% and 13% in the U.S., Northern Europe and China, respectively.

Global steel demand is forecasted to increase by 2.2% in 2022 over 2021 according to the World Steel Association Short Range Outlook released in October 2021.  Comparing the expected 2022 global steel demand to the pre-COVID-19 pandemic 2019 steel demand levels indicates an increase of 7.3% with increases in each of the regional areas, driven primarily by growth in China and Turkey.  Chinese steel demand in 2022 is expected to remain flat compared to 2021, but will be an increase of 8.6% over 2019.  Excluding China, 2022 steel demand from the rest of the world will increase by 4.7% over 2021 and increase by 6.1% over 2019.  Regionally, the collective 2022 demand from the United States, Canada and Mexico is forecasted to increase by 5.4% over 2021 and 0.9% over 2019; European Union 2022 demand from the is forecasted to increase by 5.5% over 2021 and 5.7% over 2019; the collective 2022 demand from Asia and Oceania (excluding China) is forecasted to increase by 4.3% over 2021 and 3.7% over 2019; and Central and South America collective 2022 demand is forecasted to increase by 0.9% over 2021 and 4.8% over 2019. 

January 2022 spot market pricing for Australian premium low volatile metallurgical coal opened at $357.75/mt FOBT, closed the month at $444.50/mt FOBT and traded in a range from a high of $444.50/mt FOBT to a low of $357.75/mt FOBT for an average price of $408.85/mt FOBT. February 2022 spot market pricing opened the month at $444.50/mt FOBT, at mid-month was $442.50/mt FOBT and traded in a range from a high of $445.00/mt FOBT to a low of $438.75/mt FOBT for an average price of $442.53/mt FOBT.  Through January 2022, the World Steel Association reported that global crude steel production decreased by 6.1% versus 2021 with China down 11.2%, Turkey down 7.8%, Brazil down 4.8%, Japan down 2.1%, India up 4.7%, and the United States up 4.2%. Regionally, Asia and Oceania, which includes China and India, was down 8.2 %, the EU was down 6.8%, South America was down 3.3%, and North America was up 2.5%. Through mid- February 2022, hot-rolled steel coil prices have increased China by 5.7% and Northern Europe by 2.9%, while decreasing in the U.S. by 11.3%.

After opening the first quarter of 2022 at $357.75/mt FOBT and trading at $442.50/mt FOBT in mid-February, the forward curve for the balance of the first quarter of 2022 according to the SGX TSI index is trading at $402.38/mt FOBT with February at $432.00/mt FOBT and March at $389.00/mt FOBT. Forward curve pricing for the balance of 2022 is trading at an average of $299.67/mt FOBT with the first quarter at a high of $402.38/mt FOBT and the fourth quarter at a low of $272.00/mt FOBT. The forward curve for 2023 is indicating pricing at an average of $261.84/mt FOBT. Increased global steel demand and high levels of global steel production are driving the demand and supporting higher prices for metallurgical coal. Trade tensions between China and Australia remain and continue to influence the international metallurgical coal market supply routes and metallurgical coal export pricing dynamics. Domestically, coke plant coal consumption is expected to increase year-over-year and according to the EIA and is forecasted to be 17.8 million tons in 2021 and 20.2 million tons in 2022 as compared to 18.0 million tons in 2019. Metallurgical coal exports from the United State are expected to be 47.2 million tons in 2021, a 12% increase over 2021, and domestic coke plant coal consumption is forecasted to be 20.2 million tons, an increase of 23.3% over 2021.

See "Risk Factors" in the Company's annual information form dated March 1, 2022 for the year ended December 31, 2021 for an additional discussion regarding certain factors that could impact coal pricing trends and outlook, as well as the Company's ongoing operations.

Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis

Refer to Corsa's audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and related management's discussion and analysis, filed under Corsa's profile on www.sedar.com, for details of the financial performance of Corsa and the matters referred to in this news release.


Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Corsa uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to measure its performance internally and to assist in business decision-making as well as providing key performance information to senior management.  These measures are not recognized under International Financial Reporting Standards ("GAAP").  Corsa believes that, in addition to the conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, certain investors and other stakeholders also use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate Corsa's operating and financial performance; however, these non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.  Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. 

Management uses the following non-GAAP financial measures:

  • EBITDA - earnings before deductions for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization;
  • Adjusted EBITDA - EBITDA adjusted for change in estimate of reclamation and water treatment provision for non-operating properties, impairment and write-off of mineral properties and advance royalties, gain (loss) on sale of assets and other costs, stock-based compensation, non-cash finance expenses and other non-cash adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our financial statements to assess our performance as compared to the performance of other companies in the coal industry, without regard to financing methods, historical cost basis or capital structure; the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow; and our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures;
  • Realized price per ton sold - revenue from coal sales less transportation costs from the mine site to the loading terminal divided by tons of coal sold. Management evaluates our operations based on the volume of coal we can safely produce or purchase and sell in compliance with regulatory standards, and the prices we receive for our coal. Our sales volume and sales prices are largely dependent upon the terms of our contracts, for which prices generally are set based on an index. We evaluate the price we receive for our coal on an average realized price on an FOB mine site per short ton basis;
  • Cash production cost per ton sold - cash production costs of sales excluding purchased coal costs, all included within cost of sales, divided by tons of produced coal sold. Cash production cost is based on cost of sales and includes items such as manpower, royalties, fuel, and other similar production related items, pursuant to IFRS, but relate directly to the costs incurred to produce coal and sell it on an FOB mine site basis. Cash production cost per ton sold is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users to assess our operating performance as compared to the operating performance of other companies in the coal industry. Purchased coal is excluded as the purchased coal costs are based on market prices of coal purchased and not the cost to produce the coal;
  • Cash cost purchased coal per ton sold - purchased coal costs divided by tons of purchased coal sold. Management uses this measure to assess coal purchases against the market price at which this coal will be sold;
  • Cash cost per ton sold - cash production costs of sales, included within cost of sales, divided by total tons sold. Management uses cash cost per ton sold to assess our overall financial performance on a per ton basis to include the Company's production and purchased coal cost in total; and
  • Cash margin per ton sold - calculated difference between realized price per ton sold and cash cost per ton sold. Cash margin per ton sold is used by management and external users to assess the operating performance as compared to the operating performance of other coal companies in the coal industry.

For a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures, see the tabular presentation at the end of this news release.
