Item 1.04 Mine Safety - Reporting of Shutdowns and Patterns of Violations.

Section 1503 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street and Consumer Protection Act (the "Act") requires a Current Report on Form 8-K if a company is issued an imminent danger order under Section 107(a) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the "Mine Act") by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration ("MSHA").

On July 30, 2025, Warrior Met Coal BC, LLC, a subsidiary of Warrior Met Coal, Inc. (the "Company") received an imminent danger order under Section 107(a) of the Mine Act at the Blue Creek mine. The order stated that one miner was allegedly observed working from a ladder without appropriate fall protection. Blue Creek management immediately took corrective action including providing re-training to its employees on proper safety measures. No injuries resulted from the condition and operations at the mine were not interrupted. The Company reserves its right to contest the 107(a) order.
