HOUSTON, Aug. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Natural Resource Partners L.P. (NYSE:NRP) today reported net income from continuing operations attributable to the limited partners for the three months ended June 30, 2016 of $47.7 million, or $3.90 per unit, an increase of $13.3 million, from $34.4 million, or $2.82 per unit, a year earlier. Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $23.2 million in the second quarter of 2016, a decline of $20.2 million compared to the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $81.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $10.4 million compared to 2015. Reconciliations for all non-GAAP items are shown in tables at the end of the release.
"Our second quarter results were positively impacted by the proactive management of our coal assets, as we were able to reduce our liabilities for deferred revenue by $35.5 million and recognize a corresponding amount of revenue through negotiated forfeitures by several of our lessees of rights to recoup previously paid minimum royalties," said Wyatt Hogan, President and Chief Operating Officer. "Our aggregates and soda ash businesses continue to provide stability and diversification to our asset base and, while the coal markets are still quite challenging, we are starting to see some initial signs of firming thermal and metallurgical coal prices. In addition, with the closing of our oil and gas sale in July, we were able to generate an additional $116.1 million in cash proceeds to be directed towards our deleveraging objectives. We have made substantial progress in this regard, and continue to be focused on right-sizing our balance sheet through cost management and additional asset sales with an eye towards the ultimate refinancing of our 2018 debt maturities."
NRP has recently taken the following steps to achieve the financial objectives outlined in the April 2015 strategic plan:
At June 30, 2016, NRP had $21.4 million of cash liquidity.
