About ARLP
Alliance Resource Partners, L.P. (ARLP) is a diversified coal producer and marketer with significant operations in the eastern United States. The company is the coal-producing industry's only publicly traded master limited partnership. ARLP's common units are traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the ticker symbol "ARLP."
Strategically located operations, abundant long-lived reserves and appropriate acquisitions consistently have provided us solid growth opportunities since we began operations in 1971 as MAPCO Coal Inc. As a result, ARLP is now the fourth-largest coal producer in the eastern United States.
ARLP's customer base includes major utilities and industrial users. Coal is the energy source used by utilities to fuel more than 50 percent of the electricity generated in the United States of America each year. More than 80 percent of ARLP's sales tonnage is dedicated to electric utilities that have long-term contractual relationships with the company.
At 2007 year end, ARLP had approximately 2,600 employees, $701.7 million in assets and $1.0 billion in total revenues.
