Warrior Reports First Quarter 2026 Results

Blue Creek drives record sales volumes and margin expansion

Sales and production volumes grow by 38% and 55%, respectively

Full year outlook and guidance reaffirmed

BROOKWOOD, AL - April 30, 2026 - Warrior Met Coal, Inc. (NYSE: HCC) (“Warrior” or the “Company”) today announced results for the first quarter of 2026. Warrior is the leading dedicated U.S.-based producer and exporter of high-quality steelmaking coal for the global steel industry.

Warrior reported net income for the first quarter of 2026 of $72.3 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, an increase from a net loss of $8.2 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2026 was $143.4 million, a 263% increase from $39.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, reflecting the continued ramp-up in the profitability contribution from the Blue Creek mine and slightly improved steelmaking coal prices. Sales and production volumes were ahead of budget for the first quarter and remain on track with Warrior's outlook and guidance for the full year 2026.

First Quarter Highlights

• Completed construction of the Blue Creek mine with a final investment of $66.1 million, bringing total project spending to $1,022.9 million;

• Achieved record quarterly sales volumes of 3.0 million short tons of steelmaking coal; and

• Reduced cash cost of sales (free-on-board port) per short ton by 14% to $96.17 from the year earlier period, driven primarily by the inherently lower cost structure of Blue Creek and a benefit from the Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit (the “45X Credit”).

“The first quarter marked a defining milestone for Warrior as we completed the final project spending for the development of our transformational Blue Creek mine, delivering the project ahead of schedule and fully in line with our capital expenditure guidance,” commented Walt Scheller, CEO of Warrior. “Blue Creek is already making a meaningful contribution to our financial performance with its volumes a key driver of record sales volume during the first quarter and its lower cost structure a critical foundation for

our ability to expand margins and drive free cash flow despite continued challenging market conditions for steelmaking coal.

As trade restrictions with China persist and global supply continues to pressure pricing, especially in the High Vol A segment, India remains the key growth demand driver for steelmaking coal. The recent conflict in the Middle East adds additional uncertainty and potential inflationary pressures into the global markets. Importantly, we have the tools to drive continued value creation in this environment because we have been successfully executing a strategy enabling us to optimize production and control costs.

With our strong and low-cost assets now fully operational, and construction capital expenditures behind us, we are well positioned for the future,” Mr. Scheller concluded.

Operating Results

Sales volumes in the first quarter of 2026 were a record 3.0 million short tons compared to 2.2 million short tons in the first quarter of 2025, representing a 38% increase, driven primarily by sales of Blue Creek steelmaking coal.

The Company produced 3.5 million short tons of steelmaking coal in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 2.3 million short tons in the first quarter of 2025, representing a 55% increase. Inventory levels increased to 1.9 million short tons as of March 31, 2026, compared to 1.6 million short tons as of December 31, 2025.

Additional Financial Results

Total revenues were $458.6 million for the first quarter of 2026, which compares to total revenues of $299.9 million for the first quarter of 2025, reflecting the 38% increase in sales volumes combined with a 10% increase in the average net selling price. The average net selling price of the Company's steelmaking coal increased from $135.79 per short ton in the first quarter of 2025 to $149.39 per short ton in the first quarter of 2026. The average gross selling price realization was approximately 72% of the Platts Premium Low Vol (“PLV”) FOB Australian index price for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 83% for the first quarter of 2025. This result was primarily driven by a 17% higher sales mix of high-vol A steelmaking coal predominantly sold into the Pacific Basin at elevated freight rates and persistently low second tier price relativities compared to the PLV.

Cost of sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $290.4 million compared to $245.7 million for the first quarter of 2025. Cash cost of sales (free-on-board port) for the first quarter of 2026 were $288.7 million, or 64.4% of mining revenues, compared to $244.0 million, or 82.7% of mining revenues in the same period of 2025. Cash cost of sales (free-on-board port) per short ton decreased to $96.17 in the first quarter of 2026 from $112.35
