10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X related to interim financial reporting issued by the Securities and Exchange

GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and the
Australian Securities Exchange, or the ASX, on February 21, 2023.
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, unless
otherwise stated. They include the accounts of Coronado Global Resources Inc. and its wholly-owned

necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive

The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA as the primary metric to measure each segment’s operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors should be

measures used by other companies.

in analyzing each of the Company’s segments’ operating performance. “Other and corporate” relates to additional
financial information for the corporate function such as accounting, treasury, legal, human resources, compliance,
and tax. As such, the corporate function is not determined to be a reportable segment but is discretely disclosed
for purposes of reconciliation to the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

4. Assets Held for Sale
During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company committed to a plan to sell the Greenbrier mining asset and
determined that all of the criteria to classify assets and liabilities as held for sale were met. The asset is part of
our U.S. segment, located in the State of Virginia in the United States. The Greenbrier asset does not form part
of the Company’s core business strategy and has been idle since April 1, 2020.
The Company remains committed to a plan to sell the asset, however, on March 31, 2023, the Company
concluded that the timing of the sale within the next twelve months is uncertain. As such, the Greenbrier mining
asset has been reclassified as held and used since March 31, 2023, as it does not meet the criteria for
classification as held for sale.
The Greenbrier mining asset remains idle and the Company does not intend to recommence operations at the
mine.
The assets and liabilities of Greenbrier met the criteria for classification as held for sale as of December 31, 2022,
therefore the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet continues to reflect these assets and liabilities as held for
sale as of that date.

13. Fair Value Measurement
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that will be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair values of financial
instruments involve uncertainty and cannot be determined with precision.
The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that
market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the market. When considering market participant
assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and
unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the
reporting entity at the measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly,
for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that
observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity
for the asset or liability at measurement date.
Financial Instruments Measured on a Recurring Basis

Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Coronado Global Resources
Inc. (the Company) as of September 30, 2023, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive income for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the
condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three-months periods ended March 31, June
30 and September 30, 2023 and 2022, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “condensed
consolidated interim financial statements”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2022, the
related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows
for the year then ended, and the related notes (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 21, 2023,
we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, is
fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We are a public accounting
firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance
with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the PCAOB. We
conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements
consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial
and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards
of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as
a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

statements, as well as others made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and hereafter in our other filings with
the SEC and public communications. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made by us in the
context of these risks and uncertainties.
We caution you that the risks and uncertainties identified by us may not be all of the factors that are important to
you. You should not interpret the disclosure of any risk to imply that the risk has not already materialized.
Furthermore, the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made only as
of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
Overview
We are a global producer, marketer and exporter of a full range of Met coal products. We own a portfolio of
operating mines and development projects in Queensland, Australia, and in the states of Virginia, West Virginia
and Pennsylvania in the United States.
Our Australian Operations comprise the 100%-owned Curragh producing mine complex. Our U.S. Operations
comprise two 100%-owned producing mine complexes (Buchanan and Logan), one 100%-owned idled mine
complex (Greenbrier) and two development properties (Mon Valley and Russell County). In addition to Met coal,
our Australian Operations sell thermal coal domestically, which is used to generate electricity, to Stanwell and
some thermal coal in the export market. Our U.S. Operations primarily focus on the production of Met coal for
the North American domestic and seaborne export markets and also produce and sell some thermal coal that is
extracted in the process of mining Met coal.
During the third quarter of 2023, Coronado navigated through some operational headwinds that were out of our
control, including adverse geological conditions at our U.S. Operations impacting production rates yield and
unexpected downtime for repairs and maintenance following a mechanical failure of one of the draglines at our
Australian Operations. In addition, coal production rates at our Australian Operations were lower in the third
quarter of 2023 primarily due to planned focus on advancing pre-strip waste movement and the completion of
planned maintenance on the two coal preparation plants. Overall, these events contributed to the lower saleable
production of 0.8 MMt compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Despite the lower production, sales
volume compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased as the Company drew down on coal
inventory built in the previous quarter.
Coking coal index prices improved in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the previous quarter due to a
combination of tight supply from the Australian coal market, which was impacted negatively by continued rail
constraints and planned maintenance disruptions to operations and at Queensland ports, and heightened
demand from Indian steel mills restocking raw material as the monsoon season comes to an end. The Australian
Premium Low Volatile Hard Coking Coal, or AUS PLV HCC, index price averaged $263.6 per Mt for the three
months ended September 30, 2023, $20.8 per Mt higher, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023.
The AUS PLV HCC averaged $283.5 per Mt for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, $109.0 per Mt
lower, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The spot price of AUS PLV HCC reached $333
per Mt during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, were adversely impacted by (1) lower average
realized Met price per Mt sold compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, (2) additional fleets
deployed to recover pre-strip overburden removal, (3) significant wet weather events during the first quarter of
2023 and equipment breakdown at our Australian Operations impacting production, (4) rail constraints and
disruption to port operations impacting timing of sales at our Australian Operations, (5) adverse geological
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
conditions at our U.S. Operations resulting in slower production rates and yield in the quarter ended September
30, 2023, and (6) continued inflationary pressure on labor and supply costs.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we produced 11.9 MMt and sold 11.7 MMt of coal. Met coal
sales represented 75.8% of our total volume of coal sold and 91.0% of total coal revenues for the nine months
ended September 30, 2023, compared to 78.4% and 96.2%, respectively, for the nine months ended September
30, 2022.
Coal revenues of $2,163.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, decreased by 23.3%
compared to the same period in 2022, driven by average realized Met price per Mt sold, which was $57.9 per Mt
lower than the average realized price per Mt sold of $279.4 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Additionally, sales volumes were 0.7 Mt lower for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the
same period in 2022, primarily driven by lower production as well as required coal qualities to meet sales
commitments during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Mining costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, were $1,210.4 million or $105.5 per Mt sold, $17.9
per Mt sold higher compared to the corresponding period in 2022, largely driven by elevated inflation levels, the
impacts of lower production following significant weather events, equipment breakdown, adverse geological
conditions at our U.S. Operations and additional fleets mobilized at our Australian Operations during the nine
months ended September 30, 2023.
Dividends
In September 2023, the Company settled its previously declared dividends of $8.4 million, which were paid to
stockholders from available cash.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2023, our net cash position, comprising of $336.8 million cash (excluding restricted cash)
less $242.3 million aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding, was $94.5 million. Coronado has available
liquidity of $486.8 million as of September 30, 2023, consisting of cash (excluding restricted cash), unrestricted
short term deposits of $21.6 million and $128.4 million availability under our New ABL facility.
Safety
For our Australian Operations, the twelve-month rolling average Total Reportable Injury Frequency Rate, or
TRIFR, at September 30, 2023 was 2.43,
compared to a rate of 3.92 at the end of December 31, 2022. At our
U.S. Operations, the twelve -month rolling average Total Reportable Incident Rate, or TRIR, at September 30,
2023 was 1.60, compared to a rate of 2.42 at the end of December 31, 2022. These strong results year to date
reflect a record safety rate at our U.S. Operations and the best safety rate since July 2018 for our Australian
Operations. Reportable rates for our Australian and U.S. Operations are below the relevant industry benchmarks.
Our Logan mining complex at our U.S. Operations, which includes multiple underground and surface mines,
achieved 1.5 million hours Lost Time Injury, or LTI, free during the quarter.
The health and safety of our workforce is our number one priority and Coronado continues implement safety
initiatives to improve our safety rates every quarter.
Segment Reporting
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 280, Segment Reporting, we have adopted the
following reporting segments: Australia and the United States. In addition, “Other and Corporate” is not a reporting
segment but is disclosed for the purposes of reconciliation to our consolidated financial statements.
Results of Operations
How We Evaluate Our Operations
We evaluate our operations based on the volume of coal we can safely produce 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 coal sales contracts, for which prices generally are set based on daily index
averages, on a quarterly basis or annual fixed price contracts.
Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics
are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability. These financial and operating metrics
include: (i) safety and environmental metrics; (ii) Adjusted EBITDA; (iii) total sales volumes and average realized
price per Mt sold, which we define as total coal revenues divided by total sales volume; (iv) Met coal sales
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
volumes and average realized Met price per Mt sold, which we define as Met coal revenues divided by Met coal
sales volume; (v) average segment mining costs per Mt sold, which we define as mining costs divided by sales
volumes (excluding non-produced coal) for the respective segment; (vi) average segment operating costs per Mt
sold, which we define as segment operating costs divided by sales volumes for the respective segment; and (vii)
net cash, which we define as cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash) less outstanding aggregate
principal amount of the Notes.
Coal revenues are shown on our statement of operations and comprehensive income exclusive of other
revenues. Generally, export sale contracts for our Australian Operations require us to bear the cost of freight
from our mines to the applicable outbound shipping port, while freight costs from the port to the end destination
are typically borne by the customer. Sales to the export market from our U.S. Operations are generally recognized
when title to the coal passes to the customer at the mine load out similar to a domestic sale. For our domestic
sales, customers typically bear the cost of freight. As such, freight expenses are excluded from cost of coal
revenues to allow for consistency and comparability in evaluating our operating performance.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures; Other Measures
The following discussion of our results includes references to and analysis of Adjusted EBITDA, Segment
Adjusted EBITDA and mining costs, which are financial measures not recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Segment Adjusted EBITDA and mining costs, are
used by investors to measure our operating performance.
Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard
meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, depletion and
amortization and other foreign exchange losses. Adjusted EBITDA is also adjusted for certain discrete non-
recurring items that we exclude in analyzing each of our segments’ operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is
not intended to serve as an alternative to U.S. GAAP measures of performance including total revenues, total
costs and expenses, net income or cash flows from operating activities as those terms are defined by U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA may therefore not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable measure under U.S. GAAP is included below.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted EBITDA by operating and reporting segment, adjusted for
certain transactions, eliminations or adjustments that our CODM does not consider for making decisions to
allocate resources among segments or assessing segment performance. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is used as
a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our financial statements, such as
investors, industry analysts and lenders, to assess the operating performance of the business.
Mining costs, a non-GAAP measure, is based on reported cost of coal revenues, which is shown on our statement
of operations and comprehensive income exclusive of freight expense, Stanwell rebate, other royalties,
depreciation, depletion and amortization, and selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted for other
items that do not relate directly to the costs incurred to produce coal at a mine. Mining costs excludes these cost
components as our CODM does not view these costs as directly attributabl e to the production of coal. Mining
costs is used as a supplemental financial measure by management, providing an accurate view of the costs
directly attributable to the production of coal at our mining segments, and by external users of our financial
statements, such as investors, industry analysts and ratings agencies, to assess our mine operating performance
in comparison to the mine operating performance of other companies in the coal industry.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2022
Summary
The financial and operational highlights for the three months ended September 30, 2023 include:
●
compared to net income of $150.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease
was driven by lower coal revenues due to lower average realized Met coal price per Mt sold, higher
mining and operating costs, partially offset by tax benefit of $18.2 million in the third quarter of 2023
compared to an income tax expense of $51.4 million for the same period in 2022.
●
$45.6 per Mt lower compared to average realized price of $253.0 per Mt sold for the same period in 2022.
Although coking coal index prices improved during the third quarter of 2023 due to tight supply, coking
coal prices were significantly lower than the same period in 2022 when supply in global met coal market
was readjusting from the impact of the Russia and Ukraine war.
●
2023, increased 0.1 MMt as compared to the same period in 2022, as the Company drew down on coal
inventory built in the second quarter of 2023.
●
$220.2
million, compared to $223.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, largely due
to lower coal sales revenues and higher operating costs.
●
$336.8 million cash (excluding restricted cash), $21.6 million of unrestricted short-term deposits and
$128.4 million of availability under the New ABL Facility.

Coal Revenues
Coal revenues were $707.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $156.4 million,
compared to $863.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Lower Met coal price indices, due
to varied market conditions compared to the third quarter of 2022, saw the average realized Met coal price for
the three months ended September 30, 2023, reduced by $45.6 to $207.4 per Mt sold compared to $253.0 per
Mt sold for the same period in 2022.
Cost of Coal Revenues (Exclusive of Items Shown Separately Below)
Cost of coal revenues comprise costs related to produced tons sold, along with changes in both the volumes and
carrying values of coal inventory. Cost of coal revenues include items such as direct operating costs, which
includes employee-related costs, materials and supplies, contractor services, coal handling and preparation costs
and production taxes.
Total cost of coal revenues was $501.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, $116.0 million,
or 30.1% higher, compared to $385.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Cost of coal revenues for our U.S. Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was $38.8 million
higher compared to the three months September 30, 2022, largely due draw down of coal stocks from the
previous quarter, as sales volume exceeded saleable production in the 2023 period, combined with continued
impact of inflation on labor, contractor and other supply costs. Our Australian Operations contributed to $77.2
million of the increase in cost of coal revenues, primarily driven by additional fleets mobilized during 2023 to
advance pre-strip overburden removal, impact of high inflation on mining costs and drawn of coal inventory,
resulting from sales volume exceeding saleable production in the 2023 period. Increase in costs were partially
offset by favorable average foreign exchange rate on translation of the Australian Operations for the three months
ended September 30, 2023, of A$/US$: 0.66 compared to 0.68 for the same period in 2022.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $34.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a
decrease of $2.8 million, compared to $37.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The
decrease was associated with assets fully depreciated, lower depreciation rates following annual useful life
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
review at the beginning of 2023 and favorable average foreign exchange rate on translation of the Australian
Operations, partially offset by additional equipment brought into service during the twelve months since
September 30, 2022.
Freight Expenses
Freight expenses relate to costs associated with rail and port providers, including take-or-pay commitments at
our Australian Operations, and demurrage costs. Freight expenses totaled $71.7 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $8.7 million, compared to $63.0 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2022. Our Australian Operations’ freight costs contributed $11.8 million to the increase primarily
driven by penalties incurred due to underutilization of rail capacity. This was partially offset by freight cost at our
U.S. Operations, which decreased by $3.1 million, driven by lower coal sales under Free on Board, or FOB,
terms, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Stanwell Rebate
The Stanwell rebate was $37.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $17.5
million, compared to $54.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was largely
driven by lower realized reference coal pricing for the prior twelve-month period applicable to three months ended
September 30, 2023, used to calculate the rebate compared to the same period in 2022, and favorable foreign
exchange rate on translation of our Australian Operations.
Other Royalties
Other royalties were $92.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $44.6 million,
compared to $137.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Other royalties
was due to lower coal revenues, largely driven by lower average realized prices, for the three months ended
September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, combined with favorable foreign exchange rate on
translation of our Australian Operations.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net was $14.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $2.7
million compared to $17.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was due to
lower Notes outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2023, following redemptions since
September 30, 2022.
Other, net
Other, net was $8.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $24.7 million
compared to $32.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was largely driven by
lower exchange losses on translation of short-term inter-entity balances in certain entities within the group that
are denominated in currencies other than their respective functional currencies.
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
Income tax benefit of $18.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, variance of $69.7 million,
compared to the income tax expense of $51.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, driven by
net loss before tax in the 2023 period.

Nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to Nine months ended September 30, 2022
Summary
The financial and operational highlights for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 include:
●
million, from $712.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was a result
of lower revenues and higher operating costs partially offset by lower income tax expense.
●
the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The lower sales volumes were primarily driven by the impact
of wet weather and equipment breakdowns on production performance, coal availability, and required
coal qualities to meet sales commitments at our Australian Operations combined with adverse geological
conditions caused by a rock intrusion at our U.S. Operations .
●
20.7% lower compared to $279.4 per Mt sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as the Met
coal price index rebalanced from record highs achieved in 2022, particularly in the first half of 2022, as
steel demand weakened. During the third quarter of 2023, the Met coal prices trended upwards, however,
the Company was not able to take full advantage of this due to the three -month lag in price realizations
for certain sales contracts at our Australian Operation.
●
lower compared to $1,072.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was
a result of lower coal revenues and higher operating costs.
●
balance (excluding restricted cash) of $336.8 million and $242.3 million aggregate principal amount
outstanding of the Notes.

Coal Revenues
Coal revenues were $2,163.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $658.2
million, compared to $2,821.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was largely
driven by lower average realized Met price of $221.5 per Mt sold compared to $279.4 per Mt sold for the nine
months ended September 30, 2022, combined with 0.7 MMt lower sales volume compared to the same period in
2022.
Other Revenues
Other revenues were $48.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $14.8 million,
compared to $33.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily driven by
a termination fee revenue from a coal sales contract cancelled at our U.S. Operations.
Cost of Coal Revenues (Exclusive of Items Shown Separately Below)
Total cost of coal revenues was $1,262.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of
$122.4 million, compared to $1,140.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Cost of coal revenues for our Australian Operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, were $85.6
million higher compared to the same period in 2022, primarily driven by additional fleets mobilized during 2023
to advance pre-strip overburden removal, the continued impact of inflation on labor, contractor and other supply
costs, higher maintenance expenses following a dragline propel failure, partially offset by a significant build in
coal inventories from saleable production exceeding sales volume in period compared to a draw down in the
same period in 2022, lower purchase coal and favorable foreign exchange rate on translation of our Australian
Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, of A$/US$: 0.67 compared to 0.71 for the same
period in 2022. Cost of coal revenues for our U.S. Operations were $36.8 million higher for the nine months
ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, also impacted by an elevated inflationary
environment and higher consumables and maintenance costs following a rock intrusion in the quarter ended
September 30, 2023.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $113.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a
decrease of $13.8 million, as compared to $126.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The
decrease was associated with assets fully depreciated, lower depreciation rates following annual useful life
review at the beginning of 2023 and favorable average foreign exchange rate on translation of the Australian
Operations, partially offset by additional equipment brought into service during the twelve months since
September 30, 2022.
Freight Expenses
Freight expenses totaled $192.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $3.2
million, compared to $189.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our Australian Operations
contributed $4.4 million to the increase due to higher rail costs primarily driven by penalties incurred due to
underutilization of rail capacities in our Australian Operations, partially offset by lower sales volumes reducing
freight costs at our Australian Operations and U.S. Operations .
Stanwell Rebate
The Stanwell rebate was $105.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $18.8
million, as compared to $124.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was due
lower realized reference coal pricing for the prior twelve-month period applicable to the nine months ended
September 30, 2023, used to calculate the rebate compared to the same period in 2022 and favorable average
foreign exchange rate on translation of the Australian Operations.
Other Royalties
Other royalties were $268.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $31.1 million,
as compared to $299.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our Australian Operations
contributed to $27.7 million of the decrease due to lower average realized export pricing for the nine months
ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022 and favorable average foreign exchange rate
on translation of the Australian Operations, partially offset by the adverse impact that the new royalty regime,
which was effective from July 1, 2022, had in the first half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2022 under the
old regime. The new royalty regime resulted in $58.7 million additional royalty costs in the 2023 period.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net was $43.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $8.7 million
compared to $52.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was due to lower Notes
outstanding following redemptions since September 30, 2022.
Decrease (increase) in Provision for Discounting and Credit Losses
Decrease in provision for discounting and credit losses of $4.3 million in the nine months ended September 30,
2023, a favorable movement of $4.8 million compared to increase in provision for discounting and credit losses
of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The lower provision was primarily driven by timely
collection of certain overdue trade receivables at December 31, 2022 during the nine months ended September
30, 2023.
Other, net
Other, net was $17.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $37.5 million compared
to the net gain of $55.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was driven by
lower foreign exchange gains on translation of short-term inter-entity balances in certain entities within the group
that are denominated in currencies other than their respective functional currencies.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense of $37.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $197.6 million,
compared to $235.4 million tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by
lower net income before tax in the 2023 period.
The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is based on an annual effective tax rate
of 18.5%, which includes a discrete benefit of $2.1 million relating to prior year for Australia.

Coal revenues for our Australian Operations, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were $446.8
million, a decrease of $90.4 million, or 16.8%, compared to $537.3 million for the three months ended September
30, 2022. This decrease was driven by lower average realized Met coal price per Mt sold of $236.2 for the three
months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $313.0 per Mt sold for the same period in 2022, when supply
in global met coal market was readjusting from the impact of the Russia and Ukraine war. The lower realized
pricing was partially offset by higher sales volume of 0.2 MMt compared to the same period in 2022. Production,
and sales, performance in the three months ended September 30, 2022, was impacted by unprecedented wet
weather events at our Australian Operations.
Operating costs were $487.9 million, an increase of $29.5 million or 6.4%, for the three months ended September
30, 2023, compared to $458.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was largely
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
driven by additional fleets mobilized in 2023 to advance pre-strip overburden removal, continued inflationary
pressures on contractor and supply costs, higher freight expense and increased third-party coal purchases to
meet sales commitments. This was partially offset by favorable average foreign exchange rates on translation of
the Australian Operations. Mining cost per Mt sold for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased
by $21.9 to $121.7, compared to the same period in 2022, driven by higher mining costs, partially offset by higher
sales volumes.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $120.4 million, or 136.8%, to an EBITDA loss of $32.4 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $88.0 million for the three months ended September 30,
2022, largely driven by lower coal revenues and higher operating costs.

Coal revenues decreased by $66.0 million, or 20.2%, to $260.5 million for the three months ended September
30, 2023, compared to $326.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was
primarily a result of lower average realized Met price per Mt sold for the three months ended September 30,
2023, which was $20.5 per Mt sold below for the same period in 2022, due to lower coal price indices albeit at
the back of a less volatile coal market. Coal revenues were also impacted by lower sales volume of 0.2 MMt due
to adverse geological conditions impacting production at our Buchanan mine complex.
Operating costs increased by $33.1 million, or 18.2%, to $215.2 million for the three months ended September
30, 2023, compared to operating costs of $182.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The
increase was largely driven by higher mining costs due to continued impact of inflation on supplies and labor
costs and a higher drawdown of coal inventories, resulting from lower sales production volumes outweighing
lower sales volume when comparing the third quarter of 2023 to the third quarter of 2022. Sales volume exceeding
saleable production in the period. The increase in mining costs was partially offset by lower freight expense from
lower sales on FOB terms and lower royalties as a result of lower coal revenues.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $47.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, decreased by $98.3
million compared to $145.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by lower
average realized Met price per Mt sold and higher operating costs.

Coal revenues for our Australian Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, were $1,260.7
million, a decrease of $441.2 million, or 25.9%, compared to $1,701.9 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2022. This decrease was driven by lower average realized Met price per Mt sold of $238.5, $85.4
per Mt lower compared to $323.9 per Mt sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as Met coal price
index rebalanced from record highs achieved in 2022, particularly in the first half of 2022, as steel demand
weakened. Coal revenues were further impacted by significant wet weather events and equipment breakdown
and their associated recovery time resulting in sales volumes 0.3 MMt lower compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2022.
Operating costs increased by $43.5 million, or 3.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by higher mining costs and freight expense.
Mining costs were $123.6 million higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to additional fleets
mobilized in 2023 to advance pre-strip overburden removal, the continued impact of inflation on contractor and
supply costs, and costs associated with equipment breakdown. This increase was partially offset by favorable
average foreign exchange on translation of our Australian Operations and lower Stanwell rebate and other
royalties expense. Increase in costs and lower sales volumes saw Mining and Operating costs per Mt sold
increased by $18.5 and $12.4, respectively, compared to the same period in 2022.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Adjusted EBITDA of $35.6 million, were $487.7 million lower
compared to $523.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was a result of lower
coal revenues and higher mining and operating costs.

30, 2023, compared to $1,119.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
primarily due to lower average realized Met price per Mt sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of
$199.5 compared to $232.4 per Mt sold for the same period in 2022, product mix skewed towards lower quality
Met coal and lower sales volume driven by lower production which was impacted by adverse geological conditions
and wet weather events in the 2023 period.
Operating costs of $580.0 million were $32.3 million higher compared to $547.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2023. Mining costs contributed $41.3 million of the increase driven by continued inflationary
impact on labor and supply costs and unplanned maintenance costs. Mining and Operating costs per Mt sold
increased by $16.6 and $16.5, respectively, due to lower sales volume and higher costs in the nine months ended
September 30, 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA of $349.2 million decreased by $229.0 million, or 39.6%, for the nine months ended September
30, 2023, compared to $578.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was
primarily driven by lower coal revenues and higher mining and operating costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our objective is to maintain a prudent capital structure and to ensure that sufficient liquid assets and funding is
available to meet both anticipated and unanticipated financial obligations, including unforeseen events that could
have an adverse impact on revenues or costs. Our principal sources of funds are cash and cash equivalents,
cash flow from operations and availability under our debt facilities.
Our main uses of cash have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, the funding of our operations,
working capital, capital expenditure, debt service obligations, business or assets acquisitions and payment of
dividends. Based on our outlook for the next twelve months, which is subject to completion of the SGI Transaction,
continued changing demand from our customers, volatility in coal prices, ongoing interruptions and uncertainties
surrounding China’s import restrictions, such as trade barriers imposed by China on Australian sourced coal and
the uncertainty of impacts from ongoing civil unrest and wars, we believe expected cash generated from
operations together with available borrowing facilities and other strategic and financial initiatives, will be sufficient
to meet the needs of our existing operations, capital expenditure, service our debt obligations and, if declared,
payment of dividends.
Under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture, upon a change of control, we are required to make an offer to
purchase the Notes from the holders at a price of 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest.
Under the New ABL Facility, a change of control constitutes a Review Event pursuant to which the Lenders may
request to meet and consult with us to agree a strategy to address the relevant Review Event including but not
limited to a restructure of the terms of the New ABL Facility to the satisfaction of the Lenders. Refer to Note 10.
“Interest Bearing Liabilities” for further information.
Our ability to generate sufficient cash depends on our future performance, which may be subject to a number of
factors beyond our control, including general economic, financial and competitive conditions and other risks
described in this document, and Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC and ASX on February 21, 2023 , and Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”

of available borrowings under our New ABL Facility.
As of December 31, 2022, available liquidity was $434.4 million, comprised of cash and cash equivalents
(excluding restricted cash) of $334.4 million and $100.0 million of available borrowings under our ABL Facility.
Cash
Cash is held in multicurrency interest bearing bank accounts available to be used to service the working capital
needs of the Company. Cash balances surplus to immediate working capital requirements are invested in short-
term interest-bearing deposit accounts or used to repay interest bearing liabilities.
Senior Secured Notes
As of September 30, 2023, the outstanding principal amount of our Notes was $242.3 million . Interest on the
Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The Notes mature on May
15, 2026 and are senior secured obligations of the Company.
The Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (other
than the Issuer) (subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens) and secured by (i) a first-priority lien on
substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of the other guarantors (other than accounts receivable
and other rights to payment, inventory, intercompany indebtedness, certain general intangibles and commercial
tort claims, commodities accounts, deposit accounts, securities accounts and other related assets and proceeds
and products of each of the foregoing, or, collectively, the ABL Collateral), or the Notes Collateral, and (ii) a
second-priority lien on the ABL Collateral, which is junior to a first-priority lien, for the benefit of the lenders under
the ABL Facility.
The terms of the Notes are governed by the Indenture. The Indenture contains customary covenants for high
yield bonds, including, but not limited to, limitations on investments, liens, indebtedness, asset sales, transactions
with affiliates and restricted payments, including payment of dividends on capital stock.
The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at the redemption prices and on the terms specified in the
Indenture. In addition, the Company may, from time to time, seek to retire or purchase outstanding debt through
open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will be upon
such terms and at such prices as the Company may determine, and will depend on prevailing market conditions,
liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
Based on information that we are currently aware of, on completion of the SGI Transaction, a “Change of Control”
as defined under the terms of the Notes may occur. Refer to Part I, Item I. Financial Statements, Note 10. “Interest
Bearing Liabilities” for further information.
As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Indenture.
New ABL Facility
On May 8, 2023, we entered into a senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement in an initial aggregate
amount of $150.0 million, or the New ABL Facility.
On August 3, 2023, the Company satisfied all conditions precedent under the New ABL Facility, at which time it
became effective and replaced the predecessor ABL Facility.
The New ABL Facility matures in August 2026 and provides for up to $150.0 million in borrowings, including a
$100.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and $70.0 million sublimit as a revolving credit facility.
Availability under the New ABL Facility is limited to an eligible borrowing base, determined by applying customary
advance rates to eligible accounts receivable and inventory.
Borrowings under the New ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to applicable rate of 2.80% and
BBSY, for loans denominated in A$, or SOFR, for loans denominated in US$, at the Borrower’s election.
Subject to customary grace periods and notice requirements, the New ABL Facility also contains customary
events of default.
Based on information that we are currently aware of, on completion of the SGI Transaction, a “Change of Control”
as defined under the terms of the New ABL Facility may occur. Refer to Part I, Item I. Financial Statements, Note
10. “Interest Bearing Liabilities” for further information.
As at September 30, 2023, letter of credit sublimit had been partially used to issue $21.6 million of bank
guarantees on behalf of the Company and no amounts were drawn and no letters of credit were outstanding
under the revolving credit sublimit of New ABL Facility. As at September 30, 2023, the Company was in
compliance with all applicable covenants under the New ABL Facility.
Predecessor ABL Facility
On August 3, 2023, the Company satisfied all conditions precedent under the New ABL Facility at which time the
New ABL Facility replaced the predecessor ABL Facility. As a result of the early termination of the predecessor
ABL Facility, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $1.4 million in its unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income for each of the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2023.
Bank Guarantees and Surety Bonds
We are required to provide financial assurances and securities to satisfy contractual and other requirements
generated in the normal course of business. Some of these assurances are provided to comply with state or other
government agencies’ statutes and regulations.
As required by certain agreements, we had cash collateral in the form of deposits in the amount of $67.9 million
and $89.1 million as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively, to provide back-to-back
support for bank guarantees, financial payments, other performance obligations, various other operating
agreements and contractual obligations under workers compensation insurance. These deposits are restricted
and classified as long-term assets in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In accordance with the terms of the ABL Facility, we may be required to cash collateralize the ABL Facility to the
extent of outstanding letters of credit after the expiration or termination date of such letter of credit. As of
September 30, 2023, no letter of credit was outstanding after the expiration or termination date and no cash
collateral was required.
For the U.S. Operations in order to provide the required financial assurance, we generally use surety bonds for
post-mining reclamation. We can also use bank letters of credit to collateralize certain obligations. As of
September 30, 2023, we had outstanding surety bonds of $40.9 million and letters of credit of $16.8 million issued
from our available bank guarantees under the New ABL Facility, to meet contractual obligations under workers
compensation insurance and to secure other obligations and commitments.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
For the Australian Operations, we had bank guarantees outstanding of $24.1 million, including $4.9 million issued
from the New ABL Facility, as at September 30, 2023, primarily in respect of certain rail and port arrangements
of the Company.
As at September 30, 2023, we had total outstanding bank guarantees provided of $40.9 million to secure
obligations and commitments. Future regulatory changes relating to these obligations could result in increased
obligations, additional costs or additional collateral requirements.
Dividend
On February 21, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a bi-annual fully franked fixed ordinary dividend of $8.4
million, or 0.5 cents per CDI. On April 5, 2023, the Company paid $8.3 million, net of $0.1 million foreign exchange
gain on payment of dividends to certain CDI holders who elected to be paid in Australian dollars.
On August 7, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a bi-annual fully franked fixed ordinary dividend of $8.4
million, or 0.5 cents per CDI. On September 19, 2023, the Company paid $8.3 million, net of $0.1 million foreign
exchange loss on payment of dividends to certain CDI holders who elected to be paid in Australian dollars.
Capital Requirements
Our main uses of cash have historically been the funding of our operations, working capital, capital expenditure,
the payment of interest and dividends. We intend to use cash to fund debt service payments on our Notes, the
New ABL Facility and our other indebtedness, to fund operating activities, working capital, capital expenditures,
partial redemption of the Notes, business or assets acquisitions and, if declared, payment of dividends.
Historical Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, as

Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $223.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023,
compared to $945.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in cash from operating
activities was driven by the lower coal revenues, higher operating costs and income tax paid during the period,
including $107.6 million relating to 2022 taxable income.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $183.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2023,
compared to $150.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Cash spent on capital expenditures
for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $182.4 million, of which $ 44.3 million was related to the
Australian Operations and $ 138.1 million was related to the U.S. Operations.
Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $23.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared
to cash used in financing activities of $483.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The net
cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 largely related to dividends
payment of $16.8 million, payment of deferred debt issuance costs for the New ABL Facility of $3.4 million and
repayment of borrowings and other financial liabilities of $2.8 million.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
Included in net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, were dividends
paid of $473.9 million and repayment of borrowings and other financial liabilities of $10.0 million.
Contractual Obligations
There were no material changes to our contractual obligations from the information previously provided in Item
7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” of our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC and ASX on February 21, 2023.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate
our estimates. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe
are appropriate, the results of which form the basis for making judgements about the carrying values of assets
and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. All
of these accounting estimates and assumptions, as well as the resulting impact to our financial statements, have
been discussed with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.
Our critical accounting policies are discussed in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022,
filed with the SEC and ASX on February 21, 2023.
Newly Adopted Accounting Standards and Accounting Standards Not Yet Implemented
See Note 2. (a) “Newly Adopted Accounting Standards” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements for a discussion of newly adopted accounting standards. As of September 30, 2023, there were no
accounting standards not yet implemented.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our activities expose us to a variety of financial risks, such as commodity price risk, interest rate risk, foreign
currency risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The overall risk management objective is to minimize potential adverse
effects on our financial performance from those risks which are not coal price related.
We manage financial risk through policies and procedures approved by our Board of Directors. These specify
the responsibility of the Board of Directors and management with regard to the management of financial risk.
Financial risks are managed centrally by our finance team under the direction of the Group Chief Financial Officer.
The finance team manages risk exposures primarily through delegated authority limits approved by the Board of
Directors. The finance team regularly monitors our exposure to these financial risks and reports to management
and the Board of Directors on a regular basis. Policies are reviewed at least annually and amended where
appropriate.
We may use derivative financial instruments such as forward fixed price commodity contracts, interest rate swaps
and foreign exchange rate contracts to hedge certain risk exposures. Derivatives for speculative purposes is
strictly prohibited by the Treasury Risk Management Policy approved by our Board of Directors. We use different
methods to measure the extent to which we are exposed to various financial risks. These methods include
sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rates, foreign exchange and other price risks and aging analysis for
credit risk.
Commodity Price Risk
Coal Price Risk
We are exposed to domestic and global coal prices. Our principal philosophy is that our investors would not
consider hedging of coal prices to be in the long-term interest of our stockholders. Therefore, any potential
hedging of coal prices through long-term fixed price contracts is subject to the approval of our Board of Directors
and would only be adopted in exceptional circumstances.
The expectation of future prices for coal depends upon many factors beyond our control. Met coal has been
volatile commodity over the past ten years. In the second quarter of 2022, seaborne prices reached record levels
with both the Australian and U.S. Met coal price indices exceeding $600 per Mt, largely as result of supply
concerns in key Met coal markets and continued trade flow disruptions caused by geopolitical tensions following
Russian invasion of Ukraine. The demand and supply in the Met coal industry changes from time to time. There
are no assurances that oversupply will not occur, that demand will not decrease or that overcapacity will not
occur, which could cause declines in the prices of coal, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition and results of operations.
Access to international markets may be subject to ongoing interruptions and trade barriers due to policies and
tariffs of individual countries. For example, the imposition of tariffs and import quota restrictions by China on U.S.
and Australian coal imports, respectively, may in the future have a negative impact on our profitability. We may
or may not be able to access alternate markets of our coal should additional interruptions or trade barriers occur
in the future. An inability for metallurgical coal suppliers to access international markets, including China, would
likely result in an oversupply of Met coal and may result in a decrease in prices and or the curtailment of
production.
We manage our commodity price risk for our non-trading, thermal coal sales through the use of long-term coal
supply agreements in our U.S. Operations. In Australia, thermal coal is sold to Stanwell on a supply contract. See
Item 1A. “Risk Factors—Risks related to the Supply Deed with Stanwell may adversely affect our financial
condition and results of operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and ASX on February
21, 2023.
Sales commitments in the Met coal market are typically not long-term in nature, and we are therefore subject to
fluctuations in market pricing. Certain coal sales are provisionally priced initially. Provisionally priced sales are
those for which price finalization, referenced to the relevant index, is outstanding at the reporting date. The final
sales price is determined within 7 to 90 days after delivery to the customer. As of September 30, 2023, we had
$26.7 million of outstanding provisionally priced receivables subject to changes in the relevant price index. If
prices decreased 10%, these provisionally priced receivables would decrease by $2.7 million. See Item 1A. “Risk
Factors—Our profitability depends upon the prices we receive for our coal. Prices for coal are volatile and can
fluctuate widely based upon a number of factors beyond our control” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
with the SEC and ASX on February 21, 2023.
Diesel Fuel
We may be exposed to price risk in relation to other commodities from time to time arising from raw materials
used in our operations (such as gas or diesel). The expectation of future prices for diesel depends upon many
factors beyond our control. The current Israel-Palestine conflict could create significant uncertainty regarding
interruptions to global oil supply causing significant volatility in prices of related commodities, including the price
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
of diesel fuel we purchase. These commodities may be hedged through financial instruments if the exposure is
considered material and where the exposure cannot be mitigated through fixed price supply agreements.
The fuel required for our operations for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 will be purchased under fixed-price
contracts or on a spot basis.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that a change in interest rates on our borrowing facilities will have an adverse impact
on our financial performance, investment decisions and stockholder return. Our objectives in managing our
exposure to interest rates include minimizing interest costs in the long term, providing a reliable estimate of
interest costs for the annual work program and budget and ensuring that changes in interest rates will not have
a material impact on our financial performance.
As of September 30, 2023, we had $252.1 million of fixed rate borrowings and Notes and no variable-rate
borrowings outstanding.
We currently do not hedge against interest rate fluctuations.
Foreign Exchange Risk
A significant portion of our sales are denominated in US$. Foreign exchange risk is the risk that our earnings or
cash flows are adversely impacted by movements in exchange rates of currencies that are not in US$.
Our main exposure is to the A$-US$ exchange rate through our Australian Operations, which have predominantly
A$ denominated costs. Greater than 60% of expenses incurred at our Australian Operations are denominated in
A$. Approximately 40% of our Australian Operations’ purchases are made with reference to US$, which provides
a natural hedge against foreign exchange movements on these purchases (including fuel, several port handling
charges, demurrage, purchased coal and some insurance premiums). Appreciation of the A$ against US$ will
increase our Australian Operations’ US$ reported cost base and reduce US$ reported net income. For the portion
of US$ required to purchase A$ to settle our Australian Operations’ operating costs, a 10% increase in the A$ to
US$ exchange rate would increase reported total costs and expenses by approximately $34.4 million and $86.1
million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.
Under normal market conditions, we generally do not consider it necessary to hedge our exposure to this foreign
exchange risk. However, there may be specific commercial circumstances, such as the hedging of significant
capital expenditure, acquisitions, disposals and other financial transactions, where we may deem foreign
exchange hedging as appropriate and where a US$ contract cannot be negotiated directly with suppliers and
other third parties.
For our Australian Operations, we translate all monetary assets and liabilities at the period-end exchange rate,
all nonmonetary assets and liabilities at historical rates and revenue and expenses at the average exchange
rates in effect during the periods. The net effect of these translation adjustments is shown in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements within components of net income.
We currently do not hedge our non-US$ exposures against exchange rate fluctuations.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of sustaining a financial loss as a result of a counterparty not meeting its obligations under
a financial instrument or customer contract.
We are exposed to credit risk when we have financial derivatives, cash deposits, lines of credit, letters of credit
or bank guarantees in place with financial institutions.
To
mitigate against credit risk from financial counterparties,
we have minimum credit rating requirements with financial institutions where we transact.
We are also exposed to counterparty credit risk arising from our operating activities, primarily from trade
receivables. Customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures, including
an assessment of their independent credit rating, financial position, past experience and industry reputation. We
monitor the financial performance of counterparties on a routine basis to ensure credit thresholds are achieved.
Where required, we will request additional credit support, such as letters of credit, to mitigate against credit risk.
Credit risk is monitored regularly, and performance reports are provided to our management and Board of
Directors.
As of September 30, 2023, we had financial assets of $690.1 million, comprising of cash and restricted cash,
trade receivables and restricted and other deposits, which are exposed to counterparty credit risk. These financial
assets have been assessed under ASC 326,
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses
, and a provision for
discounting and credit losses of $0.8 million was recorded as of September 30, 2023.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Group Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure based solely on the definition of “disclosure controls and
procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure
controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and
management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible
controls and procedures.
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under
the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Group
Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Based on the foregoing, the Chief Executive Officer and the Group Chief Financial Officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes to Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there were no changes in the Company's
internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, that
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial
reporting.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are subject to various legal and regulatory proceedings. For a description of our significant legal proceedings
refer to Note 16. “Contingencies” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in
Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated
by reference herein.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Except as set forth below, there were no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item
1A, “Risk Factors”, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC
and ASX on February 21, 2023 and Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended March 31, 2023, filed with the SEC and ASX on May 8, 2023.
Consummation of the proposed SGI Transaction may constitute a change of control under our Senior
Secured Notes Indenture and our New ABL Facility, which could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations .
On September 25, 2023, the Sellers advised the Company that the Sellers had entered into a MIPA with SGI.
The Company understands that, pursuant to the terms of the MIPA, the Sellers agreed to sell all of their interests
in Coronado Group LLC to a wholly-owned subsidiary of SGI in the SGI Transaction. For a more detailed
description of the SGI Transaction refer to Note 17. “Related Party Transactions” to the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated by reference herein.
Energy & Minerals Group has reported that following the closing of the SGI Transaction , the timing of which the
Company is not aware, SGI will be the direct or indirect owner of Coronado Group LLC. Coronado Group LLC is
currently the direct owner of 845,061,399 CDIs (representing a beneficial interest in 84,506,140 shares of
common stock, or 50.4% of the Company’s outstanding total common stock) and the one Series A Share.
The consummation of the proposed SGI Transaction may constitute a change of control under the Company’s
Senior Secured Notes Indenture, dated as of May 12, 2021, pursuant to which the Company has issued and
outstanding approximately $242.3 million aggregate principal amount of its 10.750% Senior Secured Notes due
2026, or the Notes, as of September 30, 2023. Upon a change of control, Coronado Finance Pty Ltd., the issuer
of the Notes, is required to offer to repurchase all or any part of a holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash
equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the
date of repurchase, subject to the terms and conditions of the indenture. Failure to consummate a required
repurchase offer, whether as a result of lack of sufficient funds or otherwise , is an event of default under the
Senior Secured Notes Indenture that would accelerate the maturity of the Notes and permit holders to pursue
available remedies.
The consummation of the proposed SGI Transaction may also constitute a change of control under our New ABL
Facility. A change of control, under the New ABL Facility constitutes a Review Event, pursuant to which the
Lenders may request to meet and consult with us to agree a strategy to address the relevant Review Event
including but not limited to, a restructure of the terms of the New ABL Facility to the satisfaction of the Lenders,
for example any unpaid amounts may become due and payable or existing undrawn commitments may be
cancelled. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had drawn down $21.6 million of borrowings and had $128.4
million of undrawn commitments under our New ABL Facility.
Should these potential events collectively occur, we may need to seek to refinance the Notes, replace the New
ABL Facility, raise new capital through a public offering or modify existing or future capital expense projects to
restore the Company’s liquidity. Although we would expect to have numerous options available to us to address
our liquidity needs, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to refinance the Notes, replace the New
ABL Facility, raise new capital through a public offering or modify existing capital expense projects, on terms
which are favorable to us, in which case and taken as a whole, our liquidity profile could deteriorate which could
materially and adversely affect our financial condition.
Coronado Global Resources Inc.
Uncertainty about the effects of the SGI Transaction may affect our potential and existing financial
arrangements and customer relationships, including contractual rights triggered upon a change of
control in connection with the SGI Transaction, and may materially and adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
Certain contract counterparties, including customers, suppliers and third-party providers may assert contractual
rights, such as consent or termination rights that may be triggered by the consummation of the SGI Transaction.
In relation to the arrangements with Stanwell, we are required to request Stanwell’s prior consent to the change
of control that is expected to occur on consummation of the SGI Transaction. Stanwell must either give or refuse
to give consent within a specified period following receipt of the request, and may only refuse to consent if in its’
reasonable opinion, it determines, that the SGI Transaction will have a material adverse effect on the financial
ability of Coronado Curragh Pty Ltd to perform its obligations under the Stanwell agreements. In circumstances
where consent is not obtained, the Company would seek to find mutually agreeable alternative terms on which
Stanwell would consent to the change in control.
The Company is also required to request Aurizon’s consent to the change of control that is expected to occur on
consummation of the SGI Transaction under the Aurizon UT5 Rail Access Agreement. A failure to obtain
Aurizon’s consent to the consummation of the SGI Transaction will constitute a breach of the agreement, entitling
Aurizon to legal or equitable remedies which may include termination of the agreement.
For a number of customers and supplier agreements, including contractor agreements, the completion of the SGI
Transaction may trigger a financial or suitability assessment by the counterparty, which may entitle the
counterparty to terminate the agreement, request further security or seek amendments to the terms of the
agreement. The termination of these arrangements, or the requirement to provide further security, could harm
our relationships with such third parties and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, and results of operations.
Consummation of the SGI Transaction will also constitute a “changed holder event” for the purposes of
Queensland financial provisioning legislation relating to rehabilitation obligations for the Curragh mining
tenements, which may result in the Queensland government reviewing the “risk category” to which the mining
tenements are allocated (i.e., very low, low, moderate or high), which may require us to provide further
contribution or surety to the Queensland government.
Following the consummation of the SGI Transaction, we expect that SGI through Coronado Group LLC
will have significant influence over corporate matters, including control over certain decisions that
require the approval of stockholders.
The Special Committee is reviewing the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation regarding the Series A Preferred
Stock and the terms of the Stockholder’s Agreement dated as of September 24, 2018 between the Company and
Coronado Group LLC to evaluate whether the rights ascribed collectively to “EMG” (as defined thereunder) will
inure to SGI as the new owner of the Coronado Group LLC. Even apart from those rights, SGI as the indirect
owner of a majority of the Company’s common stock will have significant influence over corporate matters.
Further, uncertainty about the timing of; and effects of the SGI Transaction on counterparties to contracts,
employees and other parties may have an adverse effect on us. These uncertainties could cause contract
counterparties and others who deal with us to seek to terminate or amend their existing business relationships
with us, and may impair our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel for a period of time prior to and
following the consummation of the SGI Transaction. As a result, uncertainties regarding the timing of; and impact
of the SGI Transaction on our business strategy may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Safety is the cornerstone of the Company’s values and is the number one priority for all employees at Coronado
Global Resources Inc.
Our U.S. Operations include multiple mining complexes across three states and are regulated by both the U.S.
Mine Safety and Health Administration, or MSHA, and state regulatory agencies. Under regulations mandated
by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, or the Mine Act, MSHA inspects our U.S. mines on a regular
basis and issues various citations and orders when it believes a violation has occurred under the Mine Act.
In accordance with Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and
Item 104 of Regulation S-K (17 CFR 229.104), each operator of a coal or other mine in the United States is
required to report certain mine safety results in its periodic reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act.
Information pertaining to mine safety matters is included in Exhibit 95.1 attached to this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q. The disclosures reflect the United States mining operations only, as these requirements do not apply
to our mines operated outside the United States.
