Alpha expects USD 9.3 million loss: Alpha Metallurgical Resources stock faces November 6 results

Alpha Metallurgical Resources (ISIN US0207641061) expects a USD 9.3 million net loss for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, according to PR Newswire on October 23, 2026. The preliminary update also points to USD 29.4 million in adjusted EBITDA, leaving investors to weigh stronger volumes against continued cost pressure.

Loss arrives before final results

The company expects a diluted loss of USD 0.73 per share and reported 3.9 million tons of coal sold for the quarter. Met segment coal revenues totaled USD 560.6 million, while non-GAAP coal revenues excluding freight and handling were USD 474.1 million, according to the same October 23 release.

Alpha's preliminary figures remain subject to change. The company said realized pricing was influenced by market volatility, while management highlighted stronger volumes than in the first half of 2026.

What does the volume mean for margins?

The operating spread was narrow despite the sales volume. Met segment net realized pricing was USD 121.09 per ton, while non-GAAP cost of coal sales was USD 106.93 per ton in the third quarter, leaving a non-GAAP coal margin of USD 14.16 per ton.
