During the year, the company has acquired Curragh, and due to that, the company’s total production accelerated from 8.0Mt in FY17 to 20.2Mt in FY18. The company has made significant progress in integrating the asset into the broader business, while driving operating efficiencies through enhanced dragline performance, and the company also developing additional strategies so that they can further expand their production and capitalize on the value of the incremental tonne.Â

In August 2018, the company acquired SRA and due to that now company can access an additional 318Mt of Resources. SRA will deliver a material near term uplift in production. ROM coal production for the Quarter was 7.5Mt, over the prior quarter which was 7.9Mt. The fall in ROM coal production was due to unplanned maintenance in Curragh as well as lower thermal coal production at Logan. As an outcome, saleable production for the December quarter of 4.9Mt was 3.9% below the September quarter.

The company’s sales volumes for the December quarter stood at 5.0Mt, (over the prior quarter which was 5.3Mt). The main reason for fall in sales volumes was rail network disruptions in Queensland including its track maintenance, bush fires, and industrial action. In December quarter, realized met coal price for Curragh was $151.80. The US operations realized a met coal price of $106.50.

FY18 Operational Performance: The company’s ROM production for the year stood at 30.9Mt in FY18, (over the prior year which was 30.8Mt).

Production at Curragh and Buchanan, accounted for 83.2% of total production.

Total sales volumes for the year was 20.1Mt, over the prior year which was 20.8Mt as a result of the Queensland rail disruptions in the December quarter. This fall represents a timing difference, and it is expected to be recovered in FY19.
