Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

As previously reported, on April 7, 2014, James River Coal Company (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together with the Company, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (Richmond Division) (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered in the Bankruptcy Court under the caption “In re: James River Coal Company, et al. (Case No. 14-31848).”

 

On July 30, 2015, the Debtors filed their monthly operating report for the period ended June 30, 2015 (the “Monthly Operating Report”) with the Bankruptcy Court. The Monthly Operating Report is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. This current report (including the exhibit hereto or any information included therein) shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information required to be disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD.

 

The Monthly Operating Report has been prepared on a consolidated basis for the Debtors. The information furnished in the Monthly Operating Report includes primarily normal recurring adjustments but not all the adjustments that would typically be made for the quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements to be in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

 

Additionally, the financial statements are subject to adjustments associated with the completion of the December 31, 2013 audit, including adjustments to the fixed asset values and depreciation and amortization for fixed asset impairments.

 

The Company is furnishing this Form 8-K pursuant to Item 7.01, “Regulation FD Disclosure.” The information contained in this current report shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

FINANCIAL AND OPERATING DATA

The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Company cannot predict what the ultimate value of any of its securities may be and it remains too early to determine whether holders of any such securities will receive any distribution in the Debtors’ reorganization. In particular, in most cases under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, holders of equity securities receive little or no recovery of value from their investment. The financial information contained herein is unaudited, limited in scope, covers a limited time period, and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements for Chapter 11 debtors as required by the Bankruptcy Court and is in a format intended to meet the requirements of the United States Trustee for the Eastern District of Virginia (the “U.S. Trustee”). The Monthly Operating Report does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. Therefore, the Monthly Operating Report does not necessarily contain all information required in filings pursuant to the Exchange Act, or may present such information differently from such requirements. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the Monthly Operating Report is complete. The Monthly Operating Report also contains information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in the Company’s filings pursuant to the Exchange Act, and such information might not be indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. Results set forth in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.
