Cloud Peak Energy Inc. (NYSE: CLD) (“CPE Inc.”) announced that it has commenced a registered underwritten public offering of its Series A mandatory convertible preferred stock consisting of 100,000 shares with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. CPE Inc. intends to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 15,000 additional shares of mandatory convertible preferred stock to cover over-allotments, if any.

Unless converted earlier at the option of the holder, each share of the mandatory convertible preferred stock will convert automatically into a variable number of shares of CPE Inc. common stock on or around December 1, 2017.

The mandatory convertible preferred stock will pay cumulative dividends at a fixed rate per annum on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, if declared by the board, payable quarterly in arrears in cash or, subject to certain limitations, in shares of common stock or in any combination of cash and shares of common stock, at CPE Inc.’s election.

The offering will be made only by means of a preliminary prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus, copies of which may be obtained on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at www.sec.gov.
