Resilient Business Model Generated Operational EBITDA of US$860 million and Core Earnings of US$284 million

• We posted revenue of US$3,285 million and cost of revenue of US$2,546 million. We hit our FY13 EBITDA guidance of US$750 million to US$900 million, recording EBITDA of US$822 million, a decline of 25%, and EBITDA margin of 25%.
• Our FY13 Operational EBITDA, which excludes non-operational accounting items, declined by 23% to US$860 million, reflecting the resiliency of the business model and the earning power of the firm.
• We beat our FY13 coal cash cost (excluding royalty) target of US$35 to US$38 per tonne for FY13 posting coal cash cost of US$34.86 per tonne, down 11% due to cost reduction initiatives and lower than expected fuel prices.
• Our net income for FY13 decreased 40% to US$229 million mainly driven by lower revenue from softer ASP.
• Our FY13 core earnings, which excludes non-operational accounting items, declined by 36% to US$284 million, representing our quality after tax earnings.

Solid Growth, Low Capital Expenditure and Strong Free Cash Flow

• We achieved record annual production and delivered on the higher end of our guidance of 50 Mt to 53 Mt, growing by 11% y-o-y to 52.3 Mt from 47.2 Mt.  Our 4Q13 production of 13.59 Mt was our second highest quarterly production.
• Capital expenditure decreased 66% to US$165 million in-line with our target of US$150 million to US$200 million. We achieved record annual production without spending for heavy equipment.
• On the back of strong cash flow from operating activities and reduced capital expenditure, our FY13 free cash flow increased by 141% to US$568 million.

Maintained Strong Financial Position for Long Term Growth

• Our liquidity remained solid with access to cash of approximately US$1.1 billion, allowing us to weather the current cyclical downturn and continue to execute on our business model.
• We continued to reduce our debt position and lowered our interest bearing debt by 9% to US$2,221 million, resulting in net debt to EBITDA of 1.87x and net debt to equity of 0.48x as of the end of FY13.
