Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Existing thermal coal producers, particularly those like Whitehaven that produce high-energy, high-quality coal, may benefit from future supply potentially being damped as new coal mines face more difficulties gaining approval.

Bears

The company's return on invested capital is likely to be below its cost of capital in the long term.

Company Profile

Whitehaven Coal is a large Australian independent thermal and metallurgical coal miner with mines in the Gunnedah Basin, New South Wales. It also bought Blackwater and Daunia, two coking coal mines in Queensland, from BHP and Mitsubishi in April 2024. In addition, it owns the large Winchester South deposit next to its Daunia mine. Coal is railed to ports in Newcastle and Queensland for export to Asian customers. Initial production from Vickery and expanded production at its Queensland mines, Maules Creek, and Narrabri means we expect its share of salable coal production to approach 31 million metric tons from fiscal 2031, from about 13 million in fiscal 2023.
