Description: HNRG Hallador Energy December 25, 2025
Hallador Energy Company (NASDAQ:HNRG) produces steam coal primarily for electric-power generators in Indiana, operating two underground mines (Oaktown Fuels Mine 1 & 2) and two surface mines (Freelandville and Prosperity) across Knox and Pike counties. Founded in 1949 and headquartered in Terre Haute, the firm remains a pure-play coal producer within the GICS Sub-Industry “Coal & Consumable Fuels.”
Key recent metrics: Q4 2023 net sales were $118 million, down ~15 % YoY as utility demand softened; cash flow from operations fell to $22 million, reflecting lower spot-price realizations (≈$55 / tonne) and higher labor costs. The sector is currently driven by three macro factors-(1) the pace of U.S. utility retirements of coal-fired plants, (2) the price trajectory of natural-gas and renewables, and (3) regulatory exposure to ESG-related financing constraints, which together set a low-to-moderate near-term demand outlook for thermal coal.
