ST. LOUIS , April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Peabody (NYSE: BTU) today announced it has signed a contract to provide seven to eight million tons of coal per year to Associated Electric Cooperative Inc. (Associated) for at least the next seven years. "This substantial agreement demonstrates the ongoing importance of Peabody's coal in providing reliable, affordable baseload electricity for years to come," said Peabody President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Grech.

Peabody Energy is poised for growth due to rising global coal demand, declining supply, and strategic expansions like the Anglo deal and Centurion project.

BTU stock's valuation is attractive, trading at less than 3x EBITDA, with potential for significant upside if coal prices rise.
