Peabody Energy: Downgrade Due to Q4 2025 Earnings Below Expectations and Centurion Delays

Peabody Energy Corporation reported decent Q4 2025 results, with Centurion ahead of schedule. As the largest coal mining company in the US, most of its production comes from the Powder River Basin, and a majority of its earnings and cash flow are generated from there. Despite this, the company has faced challenges in recent years due to declining demand for coal and increasing competition from renewable energy sources. Despite these challenges, Peabody Energy remains a significant player in the US coal industry.
