Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)GENERAL BUSINESS

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hallador Energy Company (hereinafter known as “we, us, or our”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Hallador Power Company, LLC (“Hallador Power”), Sunrise Coal, LLC (“Sunrise”), and Hourglass Sands, LLC (“Hourglass”), as well as Hallador Power and Sunrise’s wholly owned subsidiaries.

Our business is organized based on the services and products we provide intwo segments: (i) Electric Operations and (ii) Coal Operations. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), who is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reviews and assesses operating performance measures related to our Electric Operations and our Coal Operations segments.

In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has a “Corporate and Other and Eliminations” category, which is not significant enough, on a stand-alone basis, to be considered an operating segment. Corporate and Other and Eliminations primarily consist of unallocated corporate costs and activities, including a 50% interest in Sunrise Energy, LLC (“Sunrise Energy”), a private gas exploration company with operations in Indiana and Oaktown Gas, LLC, which we account for using the equity method.

The Electric Operations reportable segment includes electric power generation facilities of the Merom Power Plant (“Merom”).

The Coal Operations reportable segment includes our currently operating underground mining complex Oaktown 1. We have other mining complexes and locations which were idled during the year ended December 31, 2024.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made to the Company’s prior period condensed consolidated financial information to conform to the current period presentation. These presentation changes did not impact the Company’s condensed consolidated net income (loss), consolidated cash flows, total assets, total liabilities or total stockholders’ equity.

The interim financial data is unaudited; however, in our opinion, it includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) rules and regulations; accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial statements have been condensed or omitted.

The results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2025.

Our organization and business, the accounting policies we follow, and other information are contained in the notes to our consolidated financial statements filed as part of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(2)RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company retrospectively adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). See “Note 14 – Segments of Business” for enhanced disclosures associated with the adoption of ASU 2023-07.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 primarily requires enhanced disclosures to (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) disclose the amount of income taxes paid and expensed disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, with further disaggregation by individual jurisdictions if certain criteria are met, and (3) disclose income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax (benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09, but do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversion of Convertible Debt Instruments. The objective of the standard is to improve the relevance and consistency in application of the induced conversion guidance in Subtopic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. This standard will affect entities that settle convertible debt instruments for which the conversion privileges are changed to induce conversion. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement Reporting-Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard update improves the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization) included within income statement expense captions. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The standard will be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard on its financial statement disclosures.

(3)LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENTS

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a$215.1 million non-cash impairment charge in our Coal Operations segment due to the results of our annual business plan review. As part of that business plan review, the Company evaluated core hole samples at several of our mines, noting the samples obtained at our Oaktown 2 mine were determined to be of a lower quality and density than that of the Oaktown 1 mine. As such, the Company decided to temporarily seal the Oaktown 2 mine, and to focus coal production at the Oaktown 1 mine, which has lower recovery costs.

The fair values of the impaired assets were determined using a discounted cash flow model, which represents Level 3 fair value measurements under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value analysis used assumptions regarding the projected economics of the Coal Operations assets, given prevailing commodity prices and operating expense levels.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, no impairment charges were recorded for long-lived assets.

(4)INVENTORY

Inventory is valued at a lower of cost or net realizable value (“NRV”). As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, coal inventory includes NRV adjustments of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. During the quarter, as part of the Company’s routine inventory reconciliation process, a downward adjustment of $2.6 million was recorded to coal inventory.

(5)BANK DEBT

On June 27, 2025,* *the Company executed the Third Amendment (“Third Amendment”) to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2023 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), with PNC Bank, National Association (in its capacity as administrative agent, "PNC"), which was accounted for as a debt modification. The primary purpose of the Third Amendment was to provide additional operating flexibility for the remainder of 2025 by redefining covenants, deferring certain covenants until the third quarter of 2025 and moving our October 2025 payment to January 2026. The Third Amendment provides for additional flexibility for the Company to enter into prepaid forward power sale contracts, provided that the Company maintainsone hundred percent of the outstanding aggregate principal balance of the Credit Agreement (“Term Loan”) as a compensating balance. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company entered into a$35.0 million prepaid forward power sales contract, as noted in “Note 7 – Revenue” of which $19.0 million of the proceeds were deposited into a money market account with the administrative agent. The compensating balance is classified as “restricted cash” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2025. As part of the Third Amendment, the required October 2025 principal payment of $6.0 million and the January 2026 principal payment of $6.5 million, pursuant to the Term Loan, are both now due in January 2026. The balance of the Term Loan will be fully repaid no later than March 2026. All payments will be funded by withdrawals from our compensating balance held in our money market account. Furthermore, the Third Amendment defines certain administrative changes which include, among other things modifications to the required timelines related to reporting and the removal of third-party financial advisors.

On a net basis, bank debt did not change during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Bank debt totaled$44.0 million as of September 30, 2025 and is comprised of our Term Loan ($19.0 million as of September 30, 2025)* *and a$75.0 million revolver ($25.0 million borrowed as of September 30, 2025) under the Credit Agreement. Our debt is recorded at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to the variable interest rates in the agreement and is collateralized primarily by our assets.

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2025, we had additional borrowing capacity of $33.8 million under the revolver and total liquidity of $46.4 million. Our additional borrowing capacity is net of $16.2 million in outstanding letters of credit as of September 30, 2025 that were required to maintain surety bonds and other credit support obligations. Liquidity consists of our additional borrowing capacity and unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.

The Company is currently in discussions with members of its existing bank group and other lenders to refinance our current Credit Agreement. The revolving credit facility matures August 2, 2026 and our Term Loan matures March 31, 2026. The balance of the Term Loan is scheduled to be repaid in January 2026 and March 2026, utilizing restricted cash as set forth in the Third Amendment. As such, our revolving credit facility and Term Loan are listed as current on the September 30, 2025 condensed consolidated balance sheets. While no definitive agreement has been reached as of the reporting date, management believes it is probable that the Credit Agreement will be refinanced on market terms and conditions for similarly situated borrowers and consistent with the existing Credit Agreement. However, there can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful or completed on favorable terms. Failure to refinance our Credit Agreement debt prior to maturity could adversely affect the Company’s liquidity and financial condition.

Fees

Unamortized bank fees and other costs incurred in connection with our initial facility totaled $4.3 million. Additional costs incurred with our Debt Agreement amendments totaled $0.9 million, of which $0.3 million related to our Third Amendment*.* These unamortized bank fees were deferred and are being amortized over the term of the loan.* *Unamortized bank fees as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, were $1.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively. Unused borrowing capacity under the facility was $33.8 million as of September 30, 2025. Commitment fees on the unused portion of the facility are 0.50% per annum.

Covenants

The Third Amendment, among other things, deferred the Maximum Leverage Ratio and Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratios until September 2025. The Maximum Leverage Ratio requirement was changed to 3.00 to 1.00 for our fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2025, and is 2.25 to 1.00 thereafter. The Debt Service Coverage Ratio requirement was changed to 3.25 to 1.00 as long as the Company maintains the required compensating balance, if not, remains at 1.25 to 1.00. The Third Amendment removed the First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement) while maintaining the minimum liquidity requirement of $10.0 million.

As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants defined in the Credit Agreement.

Interest Rate

The interest rate on the facility ranges from secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus 4.00% to SOFR plus 5.00%, depending on our Leverage Ratio. As of September 30, 2025, we were paying SOFR plus 5.00% on the outstanding bank debt which equates to an all-in rate of 9.27%.

(7)REVENUE

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We account for a contract with a customer when the parties have executed the contract and are committed to performing their respective obligations, the rights of each party are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable substantially all the consideration will be collected. We recognize revenue when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or service to a customer.

Electric operations

We concluded that for a Power Purchase Agreement (“PPA”) that is not determined to be a lease or derivative, the definition of a contract and the criteria in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), is met at the time a PPA is executed by the parties, as this is the point at which enforceable rights and obligations are established. Accordingly, we concluded that a PPA that is not determined to be a lease or derivative constitutes a valid contract under ASC 606.

We recognize revenue daily, based on an output method of capacity made available as part of any stand-ready obligations for contract capacity performance obligations and daily, based on an output method of MWh of electricity delivered.

For the delivered energy performance obligation in the PPA with Hoosier, we recognize revenue daily for actual delivered electricity plus the amortization of the contract liability as a result of the Asset Purchase Agreement with Hoosier. For delivered energy to all other customers, we recognize revenue daily for the actual delivered electricity.

When energy hours at the Merom Hub are priced below our production cost or during outages at Merom, we have the option to make net hourly purchases of power in the MISO market. We record these as “cost of purchased power” on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Coal operations

Our coal revenue is derived from sales to customers of coal produced at our facilities. Our customers typically purchase coal directly from our mine sites where the sale occurs and where title, risk of loss, and control pass to the customer at that point. Our customers arrange for and bear the costs of transporting their coal from our mines to their plants or other specified discharge points. Our customers are typically domestic utility companies. Our coal sales agreements with our customers are fixed-priced, fixed-volume supply contracts, or include a pre-determined escalation in price for each year. Price re-opener and index provisions may allow either party to commence a renegotiation of the contract price at a pre-determined time. Price re-opener provisions may automatically set a new price based on the prevailing market price or, in some instances, require us to negotiate a new price, sometimes within specified ranges of prices. The terms of our coal sales agreements result from competitive bidding and extensive negotiations with customers. Consequently, the terms of these contracts vary by customer.

Coal sales agreements will typically contain coal quality specifications. With coal quality specifications in place, the raw coal sold by us to the customer at the delivery point must be substantially free of magnetic material and other foreign material impurities and crushed to a maximum size as set forth in the respective coal sales agreement. Price adjustments are made and billed in the month the coal sale was recognized based on quality standards that are specified in the coal sales agreement, such as Btu factor, moisture, ash, and sulfur content, and can result in either increases or decreases in the value of the coal shipped.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Revenue is disaggregated by revenue source for our Electric Operations and by primary geographic markets for our Coal Operations, as we believe this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Total Coal Operations sales​$51,256​$31,662​$119,588​$114,093

Performance Obligations

Electric Operations

We concluded that each megawatt hour (“MWh”) of delivered energy is capable of being distinct as a customer could benefit from each on its own by using/consuming it as a part of its operations. We also concluded that the stand-ready obligation to be available to provide electricity is capable of being distinct as each unit of capacity provides an economic benefit to the holder and could be sold by the customer.

During the second quarter of 2025, we entered into a 17-month, $35.0 million prepaid physically delivered power contract with energy to be delivered at various periods starting in July 2025 through November 2026. During the third quarter of 2025, we entered into a 5-month, $20.0 million prepaid physically delivered power contract with energy to be delivered January 2027 through May 2027. As the total amounts paid upfront by the customers differ from the stand-alone selling price of the transferred power, the Company concluded the contracts contain a significant financing component. The contract liabilities associated with the prepayments will be accreted over the agreement term based upon the Company’s incremental borrowing rates at the time of the contract which approximates 9.50% and 9.92% for the respective contracts, and the accretion is separately recognized as interest expense.

Coal Operations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to provide distinct goods or services. Performance obligations are the unit of account for purposes of applying the revenue recognition standard and therefore determine when and how revenue is recognized. In most of our coal contracts, the customer contracts with us to provide coal that meets certain quality criteria. We consider each ton of coal a separate performance obligation and allocate the transaction price based on the base price per the contract, increased or decreased for quality adjustments.

The following table illustrates the balance of all current Electric and Coal Operations contracts allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as of September 30, 2025 and disaggregated by segment and contract duration.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​ · 2025 · 2026 · 2027 · 2028 · 2029 · Total

Total revenue​$83,830​$385,460​$310,550​$124,530​$17,330​$921,700

(1) Coal revenues consist of consolidated revenues excluding our intercompany revenues from Merom.

Contract Balances

Under ASC 606, the timing of when a performance obligation is satisfied can affect the presentation of accounts receivable, contract assets and contract liabilities. The main distinction between accounts receivable and contract assets is whether consideration is conditional on something other than the passage of time. A receivable is an entity’s right to consideration that is unconditional.

Under the typical payment terms of our contracts with customers, the customer pays us the contracted price for electricity or capacity. For coal contracts, the customer pays us a base price for the coal, increased or decreased for any quality adjustments. Amounts billed and due are recorded as trade accounts receivable and included in accounts receivable in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Payments received prior to fulfilling our performance obligations are included in contract liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table shows our beginning and ending accounts receivable from contracts with customers balance for the periods presented (in thousands):

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​

Total contract liabilities - ending balance​$147,606​$111,798
(8)INCOME TAXES

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate based upon projected annual income (loss), forecasted permanent tax differences, discrete items, and statutory rates in states in which we operate. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, was ~0% due to recording of a full valuation allowance and ~24%, respectively. Historically, our actual effective tax rates have differed from the statutory effective rate primarily due to the benefit received from statutory percentage depletion in excess of tax basis. The deduction for statutory percentage depletion does not necessarily change proportionately to changes in income (loss) before income taxes.

On July 4, 2025, H.R.1, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted. The OBBBA includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, including extending and modifying certain key Tax Cuts & Jobs Act provisions (both domestic and international), expanding certain Inflation Reduction Act incentives, and accelerating the phase-out of or repealing others. We have analyzed the provisions within the act and determined that the benefits relating to capital expenditures and deductibility of interest under IRC Section 163(j) will provide cash flow benefits to the company in 2025 by accelerating deductions for tax purposes. As the material benefits relate to the timing of deductions, there were no material impact affecting the effective tax rate or the valuation allowance determination in the third quarter of 2025.

As noted in our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 2, 2025, on May 29, 2025, shareholders approved the Second Amended and Restated 2008 Restricted Stock Unit Plan (the “RSU Plan”) which, (i) increased the number of shares available for issuance by 2,000,000 shares, and (ii) extended the term of the RSU Plan until May 29, 2035.

As of September 30, 2025, unrecognized stock compensation expense to be recognized over the rolling 3-year vesting period is $6.4 million, and we had 1,897,154 RSUs available for future issuance. RSUs are not allocated earnings and losses as they are considered non-participating securities. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

(10)SELF-INSURANCE

The Company is self-insured for certain risks, including physical damage and operational liability, related to our non-leased underground mining equipment allocated among four mining units dispersed over seven miles. The Company records a liability for self-insured risks when a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. The Company hadno accrual for self-insurance liabilities as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

The Company also self-insures for workers’ compensation claims under a guaranteed cost program. Under this program, the Company is responsible for the first $1.0 million per claim up to an aggregate of $4.0 million annually. The Company has restricted cash of $22.8 million and $4.9 million as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively, which represents cash held and controlled by third parties and is restricted primarily for future workers’ compensation claim payments and the $19.0 million compensating balance on our Term Loan (as discussed in “Note 5 – Bank Debt” above). The Company had$5.4 million and$4.3 million of workers’ compensation reserve as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, in “accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(11)FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. We consider active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities

occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. We have no Level 1 instruments.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. We have no Level 2 instruments.

Level 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). ARO liabilities use Level 3 non-recurring fair value measures*.*

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company completed its review of the coal mining facilities and future mining plans. The impairment analysis was based upon the coal mining operating plans of the Company, market driven pricing and cost trends. As part of that analysis, the Company determined the carrying amount of its coal mining long-lived asset group was not recoverable and recorded a non-cash, long-lived asset impairment charge of $215.1 million in 2024.

The discounted cash flow model was calculated using projected economics for the Coal Operations assets, using the Company’s mining plan and reserve estimates to be mined and sold at prevailing commodity prices, operating expenses, and production cost levels, which are classified as Level 3 inputs.

Credit Risk

The Company’s financial instruments exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalent and restricted cash balances on deposit with financial institutions total $35.5 million and $12.2 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which exceeded FDIC insured limits. The Company regularly monitors these institutions’ financial condition. The Company utilizes large and reputable banking institutions which it believes mitigates these risks. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

(12)EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS

We own a 50% interest in Sunrise Energy, LLC, which owns gas reserves and gathering equipment with plans to develop and operate such reserves. Sunrise Energy, LLC, also plans to develop and explore for oil, natural gas, and coal-bed methane gas reserves on or near our underground coal reserves. The carrying value of the investment included in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, was $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

The Company also owns a 50% interest in Oaktown Gas, LLC. Oaktown Gas, LLC operates an emission abatement project through the destruction of gases extracted from the Oaktown mines to generate carbon credits and other emissions offset credits. The carrying value of the investment included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, was $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

(13)ORGANIZATIONAL RESTRUCTURING

On February 23, 2024, (the “Effective Date”), we committed to a reorganization effort in the Coal Operations Segment (the “Reorganization Plan”) that included a workforce reduction of approximately 110 employees, or approximately 12% of the workforce. The reduction in workforce was communicated to employees on the Effective Date and implemented immediately, subject to certain administrative procedures. The Reorganization Plan was designed to strengthen our financial and operational efficiency and create significant operational savings and higher margins in our Coal Operations segment. This step helped advance our transition from a company primarily focused on coal production to a more resilient and diversified integrated independent power producer (“IPP”). As part of this initiative, we substantially idled production at our higher cost surface mines, Prosperity Mine and Freelandville Mine, with minimal

ongoing production. We also focused ourseven units of underground equipment onfour units of our lowest cost production at our Oaktown Mine. In connection with the Reorganization Plan, we incurred aggregate expenses of $1.9 million ($1.1 million in the first quarter of 2024 and $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2024) that were included in “labor” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. These charges related to compensation, tax, professional, and insurance related expenses are considered one-time charges paid during 2024. The coal mining properties asset group was tested for impairment as result of the organizational restructuring passing the undiscounted recoverability test.

(14)SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS

Our business is organized based on the services and products we provide intwo segments: (i) Electric Operations and (ii) Coal Operations. The CODM, who is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reviews and assesses operating performance measures related to our Electric Operations and our Coal Operations segments.

Our Electric Operations segment includes the electric power generation facilities of our Merom power plant, which is atwo unit,1080-megawatt rated coal fired power plant located in Sullivan County, Indiana. Our sales region is in MISO Zone 6, which includes Indiana and a portion of western Kentucky. Revenues from our Electric Operations segment consist primarily of delivered energy and capacity revenues. Fuel costs included in our Electric Operations segment include the cost of coal purchased from our Coal Operations segment, which are based on multi-year contracts which approximate market prices at the time the contracts are entered into.

Our Coal Operations segment includes the Oaktown 1 underground mining complex, as well as other currently idled mining facilities, which produce high-quality bituminous coal from the Illinois Basin. Revenues from our Coal Operations segment consist of sales of coal to various third-parties and to Merom. Coal sales to our Electric Operations are based on multi-year contracts which approximate market prices at the time the contracts are entered into. Intercompany coal sales and amounts above actual costs to produce the coal are eliminated in the consolidated statements of operations.

In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has a “Corporate and Other and Eliminations” category, which is not significant enough, on a stand-alone basis, to be considered an operating segment. Corporate and Other and Eliminations primarily consist of unallocated corporate costs and activities, including our equity method investments.

The CODM evaluates segment performance based upon EBITDA margin for each business segment. EBITDA margin is calculated for each segment as follows:

1.For our Electric Operations segment, EBITDA margin is comprised of delivered energy revenues less certain significant segment expenses, which include (i) variable costs are comprised of fuel costs and certain other operating costs, such as limestone and soda ash, (ii) other operating and maintenance costs, (iii) costs of purchased power, (iv) utilities, (v) labor and (vi) general and administrative costs.
2.For our Coal Operations segment, EBITDA margin is comprised of coal sales less certain significant segment expenses, which include (i) fuel, (ii) other operating and maintenance costs, (iii) utilities, (iv) labor and (v) general and administrative costs.

EBITDA margin for each segment is a key measure used by our CODM and provides information about our core operating performance, significant expenses and ability to generate cash flow. Additionally, EBITDA margin provides investors with the financial analytical framework upon which our CODM bases financial, operational, compensation and planning decisions and presents a measurement that investors, rating agencies and debt holders have indicated is useful in assessing us and our results of operations. Our CODM reviews variable costs, as defined above, in our Electric Operations segment in order to evaluate the efficiency of that segments operations.

(16)CONTINGENCIES

Our Coal Operations subsidiary is party to litigation in which the plaintiffs allege violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act and state law due to alleged failure to compensate for time "donning" and "doffing" equipment and to account for certain bonuses in the calculation of overtime rates and pay. In January 2025, we agreed to settle with the plaintiffs such litigation for $2.8 million, which was recorded in “operating expenses” on our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. During the third quarter of 2025, $2.7 million was transferred into an escrow account while the settlement is pending court approval of the settlement terms. At September 30, 2025, $0.1 million related to the settlements remains in “accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2025.
