Peabody Energy Comm ( (BTU) ) has shared an update.
On February 5, 2026, Peabody reported that fourth-quarter 2025 net income attributable to common stockholders fell to $10.4 million from $30.6 million a year earlier, as full-year 2025 revenue declined to $3.86 billion and the company swung to a net loss of $52.9 million amid sharply lower seaborne coal prices and reduced Adjusted EBITDA. Despite weaker earnings, Peabody said 2025 operational metrics generally met or exceeded guidance, highlighted record-low safety incident rates, strong environmental reclamation, and better-than-expected seaborne thermal volumes and margins, while advancing strategic initiatives including the early start-up of the Centurion longwall to boost premium hard coking coal output, projects to tap rare earth and critical mineral potential and mine-gas power, and development of 3 GW of renewables on former mine sites, moves that could reinforce its position across both traditional coal and emerging energy-related opportunities; the board also declared a quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share payable on March 10, 2026 to shareholders of record on February 23, 2026.
The most recent analyst rating on (BTU) stock is a Hold with a $37.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Peabody Energy Comm stock, see the BTU Stock Forecast page.
