Certain previously reported three months ended and year ended December 31, 2011 balances have been recast to reflect the effects of finalizing the allocation of the Western Coal purchase price during the 2012 first quarter. Previously reported three months ended net income decreased by $3.5 million and diluted earnings per share decreased by $0.06 per share. Previously reported year ended December 31, 2011 net income increased by $14.4 million and diluted earnings per share increased by $0.24 per share.(2) The year ended December 31, 2011 includes $23.2 million of costs associated with the acquisition of Western Coal.(3) The three months ended December 31, 2012 includes asset impairment and severance charges of $9.1 million in connection with plans to reduce development spending at the Aberpergwm underground mine in the U.K. and the year ended December 31, 2012 also includes an impairment charge of $40.0 million associated with the abandonment of a natural gas exploration project.(4) The year ended December 31, 2012 includes losses on the sale and remeasurement to fair value of equity investments. The year ended December 31, 2011 includes a gain recognized on April 1, 2011 of $20.6 million as a result of remeasuring to fair value Western Coal shares acquired from Audley Capital in January 2011, partially offset by a net loss on the sale and remeasurement to fair value of our other equity investments.(5) Discontinued operations includes the gain on the sale of our closed Kodiak operations, net of tax.(6) In periods of net loss, the number of shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share is the same as that used to calculate basic earnings per share.
