Message from the CEO

The landscape in which we operate has changed meaningfully over the past year, shaped by accelerating U.S. policy tailwinds, recognition of the twin needs of energy reliability and affordability, and an expanding focus on resilient supply chains, steelmaking capacity, and responsible resource development. These shifts reinforce the importance of the work we do and the vital role Peabody continues to play in supporting global economic progress, energy system stability, and the materials needed for modern infrastructure.

Our Approach to Sustainability

At Peabody, we are driving an approach to safety, sustainability, human capital and governance that reflects our values, supports our mission, and creates value for stakeholders.

We strive to be a leading coal producer by maintaining financial strength, meeting customer needs, improving operations, and embedding strong safety, environmental, human capital, and governance standards.

We regularly refresh our materiality assessment to prioritize program focus. This process entails reviewing and considering regulatory and industry changes, stakeholder input, and business risks and opportunities along with our connection to community and the environment.

Our assessment is informed by SASB and GRI standards and is incorporated into our enterprise risk management framework. We continue to build and enhance programs in these strategic areas that mitigate risk, realize opportunity, and measure performance through transparent metrics and disclosure.

As a UN Global Compact signatory, we support principles on human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. We integrate these principles into our strategy and culture and report our progress annually in our Communication on Progress.

MATERIALITY ASSESSMENT

The topics considered throughout the assessment were guided by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), the reporting standards established by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the guidelines outlined by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), among other standards. Results are then integrated within our enterprise risk management system to build actionable performance goals and the processes that support this performance.
