Coal Mining Segment


 
Coal Mining Segment – Operations 7 Power Plant Operation and Maintenance Electricity Sales Regulatory Matters MiningLand Acquisition Reserve Acquisition Permitting Mine Planning Load & Haul Coal Handling Reclamation Bond Release North American Coal operates surface coal mines under long- term contracts pursuant to a service-based business model Customer Operations


 
Our Falkirk Mine gained a new customer following Rainbow Energy’s purchase of Coal Creek Station, North Dakota’s largest power plant Coal Mine Locations as of 12/31/22 • More than 110 years of experience • Our mines deliver coal to adjacent power plants • Each mine is the exclusive supplier to its customer’s facility • Mine mouth operations provide cost advantages to customers 8


 
 We work diligently to support our customers so they can produce reliable and affordable energy  Focused on managing coal production costs to help customers with management fee contracts be more competitive  Benefits customers and NACCO as fuel cost is a significant driver in power plant dispatch  Cost-plus contract structure tempers the impact of inflation  Increased power plant dispatch results in increased demand for coal by our customers – a win for all 9 Strong Customer Relationships


 
Unique Business Model Coteau, Falkirk and Coyote Creek operate pursuant to “management fee” contracts  Receive management fee per ton or MMBtu of coal delivered  Contract structure aligns our goals with customer objectives  Customers are responsible for funding all operating costs and capital  Provides steady income and cash flow with minimal capital investment  Eliminates exposure to coal market price fluctuations and final mine reclamation liability 10


 
Mississippi Lignite Mining Company (MLMC)  Delivers 100% of the coal to supply the Red Hills power plant (“Red Hills”)  Red Hills supplies electricity to TVA  Contract ends in 2032  We are responsible for all operating costs, capital requirements and final mine reclamation  Contractually determined coal sales price adjusts based on changes in the level of established indices  Not subject to spot coal market fluctuations  Profitability is affected by three key factors: customer demand for coal, changes in the indices that determine coal sales price and actual costs incurred 11


 
Coal Mining Industry Challenges  We were a key petitioner in the U.S. Supreme Court case, West Virginia v. EPA • Big win in fight against regulatory overreach • This ruling makes it clear that, without Congressional direction, the EPA does not have authority to regulate coal plants out of existence using CO2 regulations  Despite challenges, we believe coal will be an essential part of the energy mix in the United States for the foreseeable future • Emerging carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies can be an important component of helping reduce emissions • We are supporting CCS work at the Energy & Environmental Research Center at the University of North Dakota  Fluctuations in natural gas prices and the availability of renewable power generation, particularly wind, can contribute to changes in power plant dispatch and customer demand for coal 12


 
Minerals Management Segment


 
 Catapult Mineral Partners is focused on managing and expanding our portfolio of oil and gas mineral and royalty interests  Has developed a proven business model and a strong network for new acquisitions  Acquired mineral and royalty interests totaling $12 million in 2022  Building on acquisitions of $19 million in 2021 and 2020  Targeting additional investments in mineral and royalty interests of up to $20 million in 2023  Disciplined approach to target potential acquisitions in the U.S.  Align with our long-term strategy and objectives  Construct a high-quality, diversified portfolio  Extended geographic footprint to diversify across multiple basins 14 Minerals Management was a strong contributor to operating profit in 2022 Executing Growth


 
Minerals Management reserve locations as of 12/31/22  Derives income from royalty-based leases under which lessees make payments to us based on their production and sale of natural gas, oil, natural gas liquids and to a lesser extent, coal  Total mineral and royalty interests included 141.4 thousand gross acres and 60.8 thousand net royalty acres at December 31, 2022  Goals:  Construct a diversified portfolio that delivers near-term cash flow yields and long-term projected growth  Deliver unlevered after-tax returns on invested capital in the mid-teens 15 Location of Significant Reserves OH PA ND TX LA Gas     Oil    Coal   


 
Business Model  Minerals Management owns royalty interests, mineral interests, nonparticipating royalty interests, and overriding royalty interests  Benefit from the continued development of properties without the need for additional investment once interests have been acquired  We believe this business model can deliver higher average operating margins over the life of a reserve than traditional oil and gas companies that bear the cost of exploration, production and/or development 16
