Arch Coal, Inc. (NYSE:ARCH) today announced that it has filed its third quarter 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The filing covers a time period in which Arch was under Chapter 11 protection, and the results reflect the company’s historical accounting basis, bankruptcy-related reorganization costs and
pre-emergence interest expense.

Arch successfully completed its financial restructuring and emerged from Chapter 11 on October 5, 2016. A better representation of Arch’s ongoing financial position will be contained in its future releases and disclosures. At that time, fresh start accounting will be fully incorporated into Arch’s financial statements and will provide a more valuable and valid point of comparison for future financial results.

Arch plans to issue an earnings release covering the time period following emergence in early 2017, and plans to host an investor conference call to discuss operational and financial results concurrent with the release.

An update to Arch’s regional operating performance and liquidity position covering the third quarter can be found in the “Investor” section of the Arch Coal website.
