Warrior Met Coal Inc (NYSE:HCC), the U.S.-based met coal producer, has experienced a notable increase in its stock value over the last quarter, despite recent daily losses. The company, which operates mines in Alabama and Southern Appalachia's coal seam, has seen a three-month gain of 26.6% on its stock. According to InvestingPro data, the company's three-month price total return is 31.38%, indicating a stronger performance than initially reported.

The firm's earnings per share (EPS) stand at 8.92, reflecting its robust financial performance. This is confirmed by InvestingPro's data showing a Diluted EPS (Cont. Ops) at 8.92 USD for LTM2023.Q2. Warrior Met Coal exports its products to steel manufacturers in Europe, Asia, and South America, further diversifying its revenue streams. The company's current market cap is 2590M USD, as per InvestingPro's real-time metrics.

However, the company's current stock price of $48.38 per share may appear modestly overvalued according to certain metrics. The GF Value and GF Value Line - tools that incorporate historical trading multiples, internal adjustments based on past business growth, GuruFocus adjustment factor based on past returns and growth, as well as future business performance estimates - suggest that the stock could be slightly overpriced. On the other hand, InvestingPro has a different take on this, with their fair value estimate standing at 50.15 USD, slightly above the current trading price.

According to InvestingPro Tips, Warrior Met Coal holds more cash than debt on its balance sheet and has strong earnings that should allow management to continue dividend payments. This is supported by a dividend yield of 3.84% for Y2023.D275. The company's strong financial position is also evident in its P/E ratio of 5.6, as reported by InvestingPro.
