Elevated risk of a next-quarter earnings miss: this name has been missing across recent quarters and operates in a high-miss-rate industry. A fundamental tilt, not a price call.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition. On November 4, 2026, Peabody Energy Corporation (“Peabody” or the “Company”) issued a press release setting forth Peabody’s third quarter 2026 financial results and providing guidance on selected fourth quarter and full-year 2026 targets. A copy of Peabody’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The information furnished in this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Sec…
Why it matters: Peabody disclosed a planned COO transition to a consulting role. A completed handoff would confirm the planned change.
Watch forA company filing or release names the successor and confirms the COO handoff is complete.
Also watch forA company filing says the transition was delayed or changed, or that another COO left.
Why it matters: Centurion had higher costs during its start-up. Reaching the sales target would show that the mine is ramping up.
Supportive ifPeabody reports 1.5–2.0 million tons of Centurion sales in H2 2026, with costs moving closer to its target range.
Worry ifH2 Centurion sales fall below 1.5 million tons, or costs stay above the guided range as production rises.
Why it matters: Q2 seaborne met costs were $155.08 per ton, mainly due to Centurion start-up costs. Lower Q3 costs would show progress.
Worry ifQ3 seaborne met costs exceed $140 per ton, above the top of the $130–$140 guidance range.
Less concerning ifQ3 seaborne met costs land at or below $140 per ton, within guidance.
