ACI » Topics » Disruptions in the quantities of coal produced by our contract mine operators or purchased from other third parties could temporarily impair our ability to fill customer orders or increase our operating costs.This excerpt taken from the ACI 10-K filed Mar 1, 2010. Disruptions
in the quantities of coal produced by our contract mine
operators or purchased from other third parties could
temporarily impair our ability to fill customer orders or
increase our operating costs.
We use independent contractors to mine coal at certain of our
mining complexes, including select operations at our Coal-Mac
and Cumberland River mining complexes. In addition, we purchase
coal from third parties that we sell to our customers.
Operational difficulties at contractor-operated mines or mines
operated by third parties from whom we purchase coal, changes in
demand for contract miners from other coal producers and other
factors beyond our control could affect the availability,
pricing, and quality of coal produced for or purchased by us.
Disruptions in the quantities of coal produced for or purchased
by us could impair our ability to fill our customer orders or
require us to purchase coal from other sources in order to
satisfy those orders. If we are unable to fill a customer order
or if we are required to purchase coal from other sources in
order to satisfy a customer order, we could lose existing
customers and our operating costs could increase.
