This presentation contains statements, estimates and projections which are forward-looking statements (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Statements that are not historical are forward-looking, and include, without limitation, projections and estimates concerning the timing and success of specific projects and the future production, revenues, income and capital spending of CONSOL Energy, Inc.

When we use the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” or their negatives, or other similar expressions, the statements which include those words are usually forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from results and outcomes expressed in or implied by our forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of future actual
management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our

According to Wood Mackenzie:
◼
Global seaborne met coal demand will rise from 313 Mt in 2019 to 422 Mt by 2040.
◼
Indian imports increase to 142 Mtpa in 2040 vs 63 Mtpa in 2019; account for over 72% of net seaborne growth.
◼
Chinese demand increases by 16 Mtpa to 66 Mtpa by 2040.

Near-Term LNG Oversupply Expected to Become Shortfall after 2021

◼ We believe rising export capacity in US will help tighten the domestic natural gas markets – the linkage
◼ Global LNG demand growth is expected to soak up the incremental supply around 2021. ◼ LNG demand is mostly based on long term contracts, which could challenge US supply to keep up. ◼ According to Wood Mackenzie, supply additions are expected to slow significantly after 2021 and some
new projects need upward of $7/mmbtu to breakeven.

Source: CONSOL Energy Inc. management and Factset (1) CEIX return on capital has been adjusted to exclude legacy liability expense in the numerator as it is already captured as a liability in the denominator. Return on capital is an operating ratio derived from a non-GAAP financial measure which is reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the appendix. (2) CEIX EBIT has been adjusted to remove the effect of the 1Q19 refinancing transaction to remain consistent with prior period calculations. (3) Calculated as the weighted average interest expense for TLA, TLB, 2nd Lien Notes and Baltimore Bonds multiplied by their respective interest rates. Assumed LIBOR of 2.30% for TLA and TLB. (4) Return on capital for E&P is defined as EBIT/(Total Assets – Current Liabilities). No adjustment has been made to exclude E&P group companies’ legacy liability expense. (5) Comparable E&P universe = CHK, COG, RRC, SWN, EQT, REP, EOG, AR, and GPOR.

◼ The goal is to raise CEIX’s Return on Capital(1) over time while lowering its WACC. ◼ Focused on margins and corporate returns instead of just growth. ◼ Low production decline for coal assets vs. very steep initial decline for natural gas shale assets. ◼ Ability to export a high percentage of production to capture the highest BTU value chain. ◼ Use our free cash flow generation to improve our cost of capital and increase returns to
shareholders over time.
CEIX’s weighted average cost of debt is ~1% lower vs YE2018 due to the recent 1Q19 refinancing
◼ PA Mining Complex’s MSHA reportable incident rate was 34% lower than the industry average from 2014- 2018.1 ◼ 2018 Marked 5th consecutive year with an environmental compliance record exceeding 99.9%.1 ◼ Board level HSE Committee oversees procedures for identifying, assessing, monitoring, and managing ESG risks.

CEIX employee-related liability projections
OPEB CWP Workers' Comp LTD NQ Pension
Significant legacy liability reductions over past three years
◼
The impact of administrative changes in 2016 & 2017 reduced our OPEB liability without impacting the level of benefits delivered to beneficiaries.
◼
Furthermore, the balance sheet reduction we’ve seen in 2018 vs 2017 is a result of a decreasing trend of actual claims over the prior 3 years.
◼
Cash payments related to legacy liabilities are declining over time.
◼
Considerable tax benefits are associated with legacy liability payments.
◼
Legacy liabilities could be viewed as payment obligations between unsecured debt and equity on a company’s balance sheet.
◼
Approximately 69% of all CEIX employee liabilities are closed classes.
−
Actuarial and demographic developments continue to drive medium- term reduction in liabilities.
−
Actively managing costs down.
◼
CEIX’s Qualified Pension Plan was 93% funded as of 12/31/2018 as compared to 85% for the S&P 1500 qualified plans.(1)
−
The investment performance over the 10 years ended 12/31/2018 has been in the top quartile of all corporate pension plans.
