Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Contingencies | 11.CONTINGENCIES ​ Certain of our subsidiaries are party to litigation in which the plaintiffs allege violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act and state law due to alleged failure to compensate for time “donning” and “doffing” equipment and to account for certain bonuses in the calculation of overtime rates and pay. The plaintiffs in these cases sought class and collective action certification, which we opposed. In April 2024, we entered into a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs pursuant to which we agreed to settle such litigation for $15.3 million. Following preliminary approval of the settlement on July 10, 2025, we paid $15.3 million into an escrow account. A hearing in which the court will consider final approval of the settlement is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2025. We believe our ultimate exposure, if any should litigation resume, will not be material to our results of operations or financial position; however, if our current belief as to the merit of the claims is not upheld if litigation were to resume, it is reasonably possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters could result in a potential loss that may be material to our results of operations. ​ We also have various other lawsuits, claims and regulatory proceedings incidental to our business that are pending against the ARLP Partnership. We record an accrual for a potential loss related to these matters when, in management’s opinion, such loss is probable and reasonably estimable. Based on known facts and circumstances, we believe the ultimate outcome of these outstanding lawsuits, claims and regulatory proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, if the results of these matters are different from management’s current expectations and in amounts greater than our accruals, such matters could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.
