Alliance Resource Partners, L.P. (NASDAQ: ARLP) is a Tulsa, Oklahoma-based diversified natural resource company that produces and markets coal to utilities and industrial customers in the United States. Founded in 1971 and listed on NASDAQ since 1999, the partnership operates as a mid-cap energy issuer (GICS Sub Industry: Coal & Consumable Fuels) through four reporting segments: Illinois Basin Coal Operations, Appalachia Coal Operations, Oil & Gas Royalties, and Coal Royalties.
The companys core business centers on producing bituminous coal from seven underground mining complexes located in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, with primary end-markets being electric power generation and steel production. Bituminous coal is widely used in these markets because of its relatively high energy content and, in certain grades, its suitability as a coking coal input for steelmaking. In addition to its mining operations, ARLP owns and leases oil and gas mineral interests, leases coal reserves to its own complexes, operates a coal loading terminal on the Ohio River at Mt. Vernon, Indiana, exports coal internationally, and sells mining technology products such as proximity detection, collision avoidance, and data analytics systems.
- Illinois Basin coal exports drive higher realizations
- Metallurgical coal pricing rises on steel mill demand
- Natural gas competition pressures domestic utility coal volumes
