RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- James River Coal Company (NASDAQ: JRCC), today announced that it had net loss of $25.5 million or $0.73 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2013 and net loss of $15.0 million or $0.43 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Third quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2013 results include $23.9 million or $0.68 per share and $125.1 million or $3.58 per share, respectively, of pre-tax gain related to the Exchange Transactions. The 2013 results are compared to net loss of $20.6 million or $0.59 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2012 and net loss of $62.0 million or $1.78 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Included in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012 results is a gain of $22.2 million from the repurchase of outstanding notes in open market purchases.
Peter T. Socha, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented: "The mines are doing great. They have continued to exceed our expectations for both cost control and capital control. They have done an incredible job of adjusting to the soft market conditions and the high levels of uncertainty and concern that surround the coal industry of Central Appalachia. We have made another set of painful, but necessary, production adjustments this week. This involved idling four additional mines in eastern Kentucky. We are hopeful that these idlings can be reversed in the first half of 2014. The coal markets have stabilized during the past several weeks. Prices are still very low, but they are finally moving in a better direction. Finally, we are making progress, but have not finished our project to deleverage our balance sheet and improve our liquidity."

MARKET ADJUSTMENTS
Due to the continued weakness in the coal market, the Company idled coal production at its McCoy Elkhorn operations, Bledsoe Coal operations and Long Branch Surface operations. Approximately 525 employees were originally furloughed, and on October 16, WARN notices were issued to a majority of those employees after determining that the date of re-opening these operations was unknown. As a result of these actions, the Company anticipates paying approximately $5.8 million in severance related costs during the fourth quarter of 2013.
On November 6, 2013, we idled two underground and two surface mines at our Buckeye complex. Approximately 200 employees and contractors were furloughed. We expect the Buckeye complex, which produced 1.0 million tons in the first nine months of 2013, to restart in 2014 depending on market conditions.
SAFETY AWARDS
James River had two mines that were recognized by the Kentucky Office of Mine Safety and Licensing and the Kentucky Coal Association. Bell County Coal Corporation's Garmeda #2 mine was selected to receive an Underground Safety Award in recognition of the best safety record in the Barbourville District Office.
James River Coal Service's Buckeye Surface Mine was selected to receive a Surface Safety Award in recognition of the best safety record in the Hazard District Office.
C.K. Lane, Chief Operating Officer Commented: "We are very proud of receiving these awards recognizing the hard work of our employees in making James River a safe place to work, especially in these difficult times in the coal industry."

| JAMES RIVER COAL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Reconciliation of Non GAAP Measures (in thousands) (unaudited) | ||||||||||||||
| EBITDA is used by management to measure operating performance. We define EBITDA as net income or loss plus interest expense (net), income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA), to better measure our operating performance. We regularly use EBITDA to evaluate our performance as compared to other companies in our industry that have different financing and capital structures and/or tax rates. In addition, we use EBITDA in evaluating acquisition targets. | ||||||||||||||
| Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA as further adjusted for certain cash and non-cash charges as specified in our revolving credit facility and is used in several of the covenants in that facility. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA presents a useful measure of our ability to service and incur debt on an ongoing basis. | ||||||||||||||
| EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and are not an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of operating liquidity. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as they do not reflect certain cash requirements such as tax payments, interest payments and other contractual obligations. | ||||||||||||||
