SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts changes US coal netback sulfur value to $/mt

With respect to the daily thermal coal netback table that runs in Coal Trader and Coal Trader International, S&P Global Platts is changing the Penalties & Premia portion of the table to reflect that the price of sulfur is valued on a $/mt basis. There will be no change to the underlying methodology for calculating the FOB US Gulf Coast netback.
