SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS

Our business is organized based on the services and products we provide in two segments: (i) Electric Operations and (ii) Coal Operations. The CODM, who is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reviews and assesses operating performance measures related to our Electric Operations and our Coal Operations segments.

Our Electric Operations segment includes the electric power generation facilities of our Merom power plant, which is a two-unit, 1,080-megawatt rated coal fired power plant located in Sullivan County, Indiana. Our sales region is in MISO Zone 6, which includes Indiana and a portion of western Kentucky. Revenues from our Electric Operations segment consist primarily of delivered energy and accredited capacity revenues. Fuel costs included in our Electric Operations segment include the cost of coal purchased from our Coal Operations segment, which are based on multi-year contracts which approximate market prices at the time the contracts were agreed.

Our Coal Operations segment includes the Oaktown 1 underground mining complex, as well as other currently idled mining facilities, which produce high-quality bituminous coal from the Illinois Basin. Revenue from our Coal Operations segment consists of sales of coal to various third parties and to Merom. Coal sales to our Electric Operations are based on multi-year contracts that approximated market prices at the time the contracts were agreed. Intercompany coal sales and amounts above actual costs to produce the coal are eliminated in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has a “Corporate and Other and Eliminations” category, which is not significant enough, on a stand-alone basis, to be considered an operating segment. Corporate and Other and Eliminations primarily consist of unallocated corporate costs and activities, including our equity method investments.

The CODM evaluates segment performance based upon Segment EBITDA for each business segment. Segment EBITDA is calculated for each segment as follows:

1.For our Electric Operations segment, Segment EBITDA is comprised of accredited capacity and delivered energy revenues less certain significant segment expenses, which include (i) variable costs comprised of fuel costs and certain other operating costs, such as limestone and soda ash, (ii) other operating and maintenance costs, (iii) costs of purchased power, (iv) utilities, (v) labor and (vi) general and administrative costs.

2.For our Coal Operations segment, Segment EBITDA is comprised of coal sales less certain significant segment expenses, which include (i) fuel, (ii) other operating and maintenance costs, (iii) utilities, (iv) labor and (v) general and administrative costs.

Segment EBITDA for each segment is a key measure used by our CODM and provides information about our core operating performance, significant expenses and ability to generate cash flow. Additionally, Segment EBITDA provides investors with the financial analytical framework upon which our CODM bases financial, operational, compensation and planning decisions and presents a measurement that investors, rating agencies and debt holders have indicated is useful in assessing us and our results of operations. Our CODM reviews variable costs, as defined above, in our Electric Operations segment in order to evaluate the efficiency of that segment’s operations.

Presented below are the Electric and Coal Operations key metrics reviewed by the CODM for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):
