Earnings Scheduled For February 6, 2025

Wall Street personalities and market watchers are closely monitoring coal stocks following unexpected industry dynamics, with CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer hinting at a potential sector resurgence.
What Happened: Cramer&#8217;s cryptic Wednesday post on X, questioning &#8220;And what if coal makes a comeback??? Stay tuned&#8230;&#8221;, preceded a notable decline in coal-related equities.
Major industry players like Peabody Energy Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTU#NYSE">BTU</a>) and Warrior Met Coal Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HCC#NYSE">HCC</a>) experienced significant price corrections, with the Exchange Traded Concepts Trust Range Global Coal Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COAL#NYSE">COAL</a>) dropping 2.20%.
The potential shift comes amid President Donald Trump&#8216;s aggressive energy infrastructure plans, which emphasize expanding <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/42865106/trump-vows-to-power-ai-boom-with-expanded-oil-drilling-need-double-the-electricity-at-least-that-we-have-right-now">domestic drilling and electricity production</a> to support the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43111153/nvidia-and-ai-stock-rises-as-trump-announces-500-billion-stargate-ai-infrastructure-venture">burgeoning artificial intelligence sector</a>.

COAL

Jim Cramer Hints At Coal 'Comeback' As Stocks Dip, Trump's Energy Agenda Fuels Debate

One question that consistently comes across my desk is why we maintain a global value portfolio when growth stocks and U.S. markets are clearly dominating the investment landscape. The answer, quite frankly, is that&#8217;s exactly why we&#8217;re doing it.
The United States has maintained its position as the world&#8217;s dominant economy and market for some time, but this dominance has intensified significantly in the aftermath of the COVID pandemic. Our leadership in implementing relief funds, stimulus programs, interest rate management to combat inflation, and supply chain repairs has been unmatched. Add to this our current supremacy in artificial intelligence development (at least among public companies), and it&#8217;s no surprise that U.S. markets now represent about 70% of global market capitalization.
However, this dominance comes at a price. U.S. stocks are trading at significantly higher multiples of earnings, asset values, and dividends compared to many international markets, where valuations are often half of what we&#8217;re seeing domestically. While these markets may be out of favor, history has consistently shown that the most successful investors are those willing to venture where others fear to tread.
The Value of Contrarian Investing Looking back at market history, some of the most profitable opportunities have emerged from moments of market distress. Consider the crash of 1987 &#8211; investors who had the courage to buy during or shortly after the crash reaped substantial gains. Similar opportunities presented themselves during the S&amp;L crisis with healthy banks, in the aftermath of the junk bond implosion following Drexel Burnham&#8217;s collapse, and during the tech sector&#8217;s meltdown in 2002-2003.
Yes, there&#8217;s always the possibility that buying into dire situations could result in massive losses if the world truly implodes. But at that point, your stock portfolio&#8217;s performance would likely be the least of your concerns.
Current Global Market Dynamics Europe currently presents what many view as a challenging investment landscape. The Japanese political and economic situation continues to perplex observers, particularly given their substantial debt-to-GDP ratio. However, Japan continues to not just survive but thrive, and we&#8217;re witnessing unprecedented success in corporate activism campaigns across Asia, particularly in Japan, where efforts to unlock shareholder value are gaining traction.
This global approach isn&#8217;t new. John Templeton pioneered this strategy, famously launching his career by borrowing $10,000 to purchase a portfolio of NYSE-listed stocks trading under $1. While some went bankrupt, the portfolio quadrupled over several years, marking the beginning of his illustrious career. Templeton went on to become a trailblazer in global value investing, achieving impressive compounded returns over a long career.
The Perfect Stock Portfolio&#8217;s Global Perspective Our portfolio&#8217;s international approach has proven highly profitable over the years. We&#8217;ve successfully invested in Russian steel companies, banks, and mining operations, South African diamond mines, Indian conglomerates, European banks, and British bakeries. By maintaining a global perspective while adhering to our core criteria &#8211; reasonable valuations, dividend payments, and conservative finances &#8211; we&#8217;ve significantly enhanced our returns.
Currently, finding stocks in the U.S. that trade below asset value, maintain strong balance sheets with minimal debt, offer reasonable yields, and remain profitable is increasingly challenging. In contrast, Europe and Japan present numerous opportunities meeting these criteria. We&#8217;ve even identified select Chinese companies that qualify under our stringent standards.
Regional Market Analysis The Chinese market remains a significant concern for global investors. Growth projections indicate a slowdown to 4.5% in 2025 from nearly 5% last year, with further deceleration expected in 2026. This situation could worsen if Donald Trump implements his proposed tariffs. However, Xi Jinping&#8217;s government is discussing various stimulus measures, including property market support, increased debt issuance, and potential interest rate and reserve requirement adjustments by the People&#8217;s Bank of China. European markets present an interesting value proposition despite lagging U.S. growth. Unlike the U.S., European markets are heavily weighted toward financials, energy, and industrials rather than tech giants (with notable exceptions like ASML). While their renewable energy initiatives haven&#8217;t fully delivered, the sector maintains growth potential. European markets currently trade at roughly half the valuation levels of U.S. stocks while offering higher dividend yields.
Japan's market dynamics remain complex but promising. Despite challenges including high government debt and an aging population, they&#8217;ve maintained stability. Recent developments include potential rate hikes amid inflationary pressures and wage growth. The government&#8217;s $250 billion stimulus package, focusing on digital innovation and energy cost subsidies, has received positive market response. Many analysts anticipate the Nikkei 225 reaching new all-time highs this year.
New Portfolio Addition: Peabody Energy Corporation (Ticker: BTU) Despite our international focus, our latest addition is a U.S.-based company in perhaps the most unloved sector globally &#8211; coal. Peabody Energy Corporation, headquartered in St. Louis, operates globally, serving customers in 25 countries with both thermal and metallurgical coal.
Their recent $3.8 billion acquisition of Anglo-American&#8217;s Australian steelmaking coal assets is transformative, potentially tripling their metallurgical coal production by 2026. While developed markets are transitioning away from thermal coal, demand remains strong in emerging markets, particularly China and India. Additionally, coal still generates approximately 20% of U.S. electricity.
Peabody&#8217;s fundamentals are compelling:
<ul>
<li>Annual revenue exceeding $1 billion</li>
<li>Substantial free cash flow</li>
<li>Strong liquidity</li>
<li>Manageable debt levels</li>
<li>1.63% dividend yield</li>
<li>Trading at approximately 5x earnings</li>
<li>75% of tangible book value</li>
</ul>
While the coal industry faces regulatory and environmental headwinds in Western markets, global demand persists, particularly in emerging economies. The Perfect Stock Portfolio continues to focus on dividend collection and deeply undervalued stocks, maintaining our strategy of beating the markets through patient, value-oriented investing.

Shares of oil and gas companies are trading lower following reports suggesting an Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire.

Anglo American (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAUKF#OTC">AAUKF</a>) has agreed to sell its Australian steelmaking coal portfolio to Peabody Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTU#NYSE">BTU</a>) for up to $3.8 billion. The sale marks another step toward future-facing commodities, following the $1.1 billion sale of its stake in the Jellinbah Group <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/11/41739206/anglo-american-offloads-1-1-billion-coal-stake-proceeds-with-restructuring">earlier this month</a>.
&#8220;We're pleased to acquire these world-class assets from Anglo American, a company that shares our strong values of safety, sustainability, and social license to operate,&#8221; <a href="https://www.angloamerican.com/media/press-releases/2024/25-11-2024">said</a> Peabody CEO Jim Grech. &#8220;We look forward to integrating these assets, teaming up with their highly skilled workforce, and aligning with our new mine joint venture partners to create long-term value.&#8221;
This coal portfolio includes an 88% stake in the Moranbah North JV, a 70% interest in the Capcoal JV, and several other major interests, such as the Dawson and Roper Creek JVs. These assets are critical producers of metallurgical coal, essential for steelmaking, and should be meaningful contributors to Peabody&#8217;s operations.
Per the deal's terms, Anglo American will receive an upfront cash payment of $2.05 billion, deferred cash payments totaling $725 million, a price-linked earnout of up to $550 million, and $450 million contingent on the reopening of the Grosvenor mine. The deal will close by Q3 2025, pending regulatory approvals.

&#8220;The sale of our steelmaking coal business is another important step toward delivering the strategy we set out in May to create a world-class copper, premium iron ore, and crop nutrients business. We're focused on streamlining costs, simplifying our portfolio, and unlocking market value,&#8221; said Anglo American CEO Duncan Wanblad.
The company has set a target of $1 billion in cost savings by 2025 and expects an additional $800 million in recurring pre-tax benefits. The broader restructuring plan includes divesting from coal, platinum, nickel, and diamonds. The demerger of Anglo American Platinum (Amplats) is expected by mid-2025, and the nickel business sale is progressing with strong interest.
The crown jewel of Anglo American&#8217;s portfolio, De Beers, remains on books. Weaker Chinese diamond demand and an influx of synthetics have created persisting weakness, making asset sales unattractive.
Earlier this year, Anglo American embarked on a major restructuring to fend off a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/05/39068033/time-runs-out-for-bhp-deal-49-billion-acquisition-of-anglo-american-proves-too-complex-to-solve">takeover bid from BHP</a>. To position itself for long-term growth, the company is focusing on high-margin, future-facing minerals like copper, quality iron ore, and crop nutrients.

Anglo American Sells Coal Portfolio For $3.8 Billion

Peabody (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTU#NYSE">BTU</a>) today announced it has agreed to acquire world-class steelmaking coal assets from Anglo American plc in a transaction that meaningfully accelerates Peabody's strategy to reweight its global coal portfolio toward seaborne metallurgical coal. The transaction is expected to close mid-2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
In consideration for the transaction:
<ul>
<li>Peabody has agreed to pay cash of $2,320 million, comprised of cash of $1,695 million at closing and deferred payments of $625 million payable in four annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the completion date.</li>
<li>Peabody has also agreed to further contingent payments of up to $1.0 billion, subject to potential favorable future events.</li>
<li>Proceeds to Anglo American would also include $455 million made possible by the acquisition of Dawson Mine by PT Bukit Makmur Mandiri Utama in a back-to-back transaction.</li>
</ul>
"This transformative transaction presents a rare opportunity for Peabody to acquire premier steelmaking coal assets at a compelling valuation as we reweight our portfolio toward seaborne metallurgical coal," Peabody President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Grech said. "The transaction is strategically aligned, immediately accretive and highly synergistic, positioning us to better serve the best metallurgical coal demand centers in the world. This transaction gives us a strong foundation to position the company for long-term success."
"We are delighted to agree to the sale of this portfolio of world-class steelmaking coal assets to Peabody, and we look forward to working together with the Peabody team and with our workforce, local communities, government, customers and partners to ensure a successful transition," Anglo American Chief Executive Duncan Wanblad added.
The acquisition includes four metallurgical coal mines – Moranbah North, Grosvenor, Aquila, and Capcoal – located in Australia's Bowen Basin, which is widely recognized for the world's highest-quality steelmaking coal. Approximately 80 percent of the mines' output is hard coking coal. The mines are complementary to Peabody's existing Australian platform, including Centurion Mine, and are expected to produce approximately 11.3 million tons of primarily hard coking coal in 2026. The acquired mines have an average mine life greater than 20 years with 306 million tons of marketable reserves and an additional 1.7 billion tons of coal resources.2
The acquisition is expected to transform Peabody's metallurgical coal segment, increasing metallurgical coal production from an estimated 7.4 million tons in 2024 to an expected 21 – 22 million tons in 2026.
Strategic and Financial Benefits
Peabody believes the acquisition demonstrates multiple compelling strategic and financial benefits, as the transaction:
<ul>
<li>Increases exposure to premium hard coking coal and key high-growth markets: With a greatly expanded Australian metallurgical coal portfolio, Peabody will be poised to meet increasing demand in Asian markets, which represent the entire growth in global steel demand over the past decade and the vast majority of all projected growth in metallurgical coal demand through 2050. The acquired assets' coal quality and proximity to key markets in Asia provides substantial opportunities to better serve customers.</li>
<li>Creates opportunity to capture substantial synergies: Peabody expects significant estimated synergy opportunities of approximately $100 million per year to be realized through efficiencies from office rationalization, selling, general &amp; administrative savings, and marketing opportunities.</li>
<li>Enhances margins and through-the-cycle performance: The acquired assets' coal quality will upgrade Peabody's metallurgical coal platform and is superior to the peer average. Assuming consensus hard coking coal prices of $225 per metric ton, Peabody anticipates Adjusted EBITDA margins3 of $65 to $70 per ton on the anticipated 11.3 million tons of 2026 coal sales attributable to the acquisition.</li>
<li>Bolsters Peabody's attractive financial profile: The company expects the transaction to be meaningfully accretive to cash flows across all time periods on a levered operating cash flow less CapEx basis. The transaction implies an attractive 3.1x times enterprise-value-to-2026 EBITDA multiple. The company also believes the increased exposure to metallurgical coal creates the potential for a favorable re-rating of the company's valuation, given stronger multiples for metallurgical coal producers with long-lived assets.</li>
<li>Accelerates company's sustainability and emission target ambitions: Peabody continues to strengthen its sustainability through a number of activities, including reweighting its portfolio toward steelmaking coal, joint venture initiatives to develop solar power and battery storage on former mine lands, and fully funding final reclamation obligations. Additionally, after achieving its first reduction targets for Scope 1 and 2 emissions, the company's Board of Directors intends to establish new long-term targets including the newly acquired assets in the coming months.</li>
</ul>
"This value-enhancing acquisition builds upon actions we have taken in recent years to strengthen our balance sheet and expand shareholder returns. Subsequent to the transaction closing, we anticipate continuing our shareholder return program based on available free cash flow, while a portion of cash flows will be used to fund the transaction during the deferred payment period," Peabody Chief Financial Officer Mark Spurbeck said. "Once we fully integrate the acquired metallurgical coal assets into our seaborne portfolio, we will have an even stronger platform to provide significant value upside to our shareholders."
Additional Transaction Details
Peabody's acquisition is contingent on regulatory approvals, clearance of pre-emption rights by minority partners of the assets, and other customary closing conditions.
The company has secured a bridge facility commitment to finance the acquisition. The company intends to obtain permanent financing in lieu of borrowing under the bridge facility and targets a debt-to-EBITDA ratio ceiling of approximately 1.5x.
The transaction agreement provides for an upfront cash payment of $1,695 million, as well as $625 million of deferred cash consideration to be paid over a four-year period4, $450 million of contingent consideration based on the successful restart of Grosvenor5, and up to $550 million of contingent consideration based on a revenue sharing agreement over a five-year period6.&nbsp;All referenced transaction components exclude the Dawson Mine, which Indonesia's PT Bukit Makmur Mandiri Utama (BUMA) has agreed to acquire for total consideration of $455 million ($355 million upfront cash and $100 million in four annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the Dawson transaction completion date), subject to pre-emption rights and other customary closing conditions.
"Peabody appreciates the shared values of Anglo American across safety, sustainability, productivity and social license matters, and we look forward to welcoming the experienced employees related to these assets to the Peabody team," Mr. Grech said. "We also look forward to again teaming up with the leading global partners who share not only ownership interests in these mines but also our view of the long-term value of these assets."

Shares of oil and fossil fuel companies are trading higher following the US presidential election. Investors may be weighing the potential impact of Donald Trump's energy policies on the sector.

Anglo American (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAUKF#OTC">AAUKF</a>) has agreed to sell its 33.3% stake in the Jellinbah Group to Zashvin for $1.1 billion. Per the plan laid out <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/05/38826363/anglo-american-expedites-plan-to-divest-de-beers-other-assets-after-rebuffing-bhp-takeover-bid" rel="noreferrer noopener">earlier this year</a>, the company is focusing on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/copper" rel="noreferrer noopener">copper</a>, iron ore, and crop nutrients.
The joint venture holds a 70% interest in two major metallurgical coal mines in Queensland: Jellinbah East and Lake Vermont. Anglo did not operate these mines nor market their output.
"We are making excellent progress with our simplification of Anglo American to create an exciting and differentiated investment proposition focused on our world-class copper, premium iron ore, and crop nutrients assets &#8211; all future-enabling products," <a target="_blank" href="https://www.angloamerican.com/media/press-releases/2024/04-11-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> CEO Duncan Wanblad.
Despite its unpopular status due to environmental concerns, coal remains an important commodity. A recent <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41710410/australian-breakthrough-extends-use-for-coal-powered-plants-helps-shift-to-renewables" rel="noreferrer noopener">Australian achievement</a> in shutting down and restarting a power plant shows that its decline could be much more gradual than anticipated.
Still, Anglo American is set on divesting its remaining coal assets, aiming to net between $5b and $6b. Talks are underway with potential buyers, including Peabody (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTU#NYSE">BTU</a>), Yancoal (OTCPK: YACAF), and Glencore (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLNCY#OTC">GLNCY</a>) &#8211; which has decided against <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/08/40216672/glencore-votes-against-spinning-off-coal-remains-open-to-more-acquisitions" rel="noreferrer noopener">spinning off its coal business</a>.
"This highly cash generative and much higher margin portfolio will offer greater resilience through cycles and the benefit of significant high-quality and well-sequenced growth options," Wanblad noted regarding the process.
Anglo American's broader restructuring efforts were announced earlier this year amidst an attempted takeover by BHP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>). Besides coal, the plan involved shedding even South African De Beers, the world's largest diamond producer.
However, challenges in the diamond market have made a sale less feasible, with Anglo preferring to wait for market recovery to optimize value from its "crown jewel." A complicated situation with South African assets is often quoted as one of the biggest hurdles in BHP's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/05/39068033/time-runs-out-for-bhp-deal-49-billion-acquisition-of-anglo-american-proves-too-complex-to-solve" rel="noreferrer noopener">failed bid</a>.
Although a recent comment from BHP's chairman signaled that both parties have moved on, the miner quickly retraced that comment. The mandatory standstill on offers expires on November 29, with Anglo's market cap currently at approximately $42 billion—$47 billion below BHP's final $49b bid in May.
