Powering Peabody Energy’s Rapid Turnaround

In April 2016, the company voluntarily filed petitions under Chapter 11 to strengthen liquidity and reduce debt amid a prolonged and unprecedented downturn.Industry pressures included a dramatic drop in the price of metallurgical coal, weakness in the Chinese economy, overproduction of domestic shale gas and ongoing regulatory challenges. In addition, a decline in the value of the Australian dollar left Peabody in a loss position on many of its hedging agreements. FTI Consulting worked with the Peabody executive management team and board, alongside the company’s other financial and legal advisors, to navigate the bankruptcy waters and help steer the company toward a successful reorganization.
