Westmoreland Resource Partners’ sudden surge was the result of an announcement on May 22 by its parent company, Westmoreland Coal, that the company had secured $110 million in financing. This money comes from a group of creditors which already held ~79% of its term loan and senior secured notes. This money will go towards providing additional liquidity as well as the repayment of other loans which will allow Westmoreland to simplify its capital structure which will contribute to its future success. The company has faced many financial struggles recently, so hopefully this new capital will allow them to more time to restructure and give the company a greater potential to succeed.
