METC Investor Alert: Important Update for Ramaco Resources Shareholders

NEW YORK – February 6, 2026 — Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a nationally recognized securities law firm with a long history of representing investors, has issued an urgent investor alert concerning potential legal claims against Ramaco Resources, Inc. (“Ramaco” or the “Company”), which trades on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol METC. The firm reminds shareholders of a critical deadline of March 31, 2026 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in a pending federal securities class action lawsuit filed on behalf of investors.

This notification, part of the firm’s ongoing investor awareness efforts, highlights the available legal rights and options for those who purchased or acquired Ramaco securities during a defined class period. Shareholders who suffered financial losses due to alleged misrepresentations or omissions by the Company or its officers are strongly encouraged to consider their rights and take timely action.

About the Securities Class Action Lawsuit

According to the legal filings and related press notices, a federal securities class action has been filed against Ramaco Resources alleging violations of federal securities laws. These violations stem from statements made by the Company that are claimed to have been materially false or misleading, or due to failures to disclose important information that investors reasonably expected when purchasing or acquiring RAMC stock. The lawsuit seeks relief for investors who suffered losses during the identified class period.

Specifically, investors who acquired Ramaco Resources shares between July 31, 2025 and October 23, 2025 during the so-called “Class Period” may be eligible to join the lawsuit. These shareholders are reminded they have until March 31, 2026 to formally file a motion with the court to be appointed as lead plaintiff. This designation allows a representative investor to guide the litigation on behalf of all class members.

What Is a Lead Plaintiff?

In a class action lawsuit, the lead plaintiff plays a central role in directing the case. The lead plaintiff:

• Acts as the representative for all class members;
• Helps oversee the litigation and make strategic decisions;
• Selects counsel to represent the entire class;
• May influence settlement negotiations.

Selecting an appropriate lead plaintiff is governed by federal law, which is designed to select the investor most suitable to represent the interests of the entire class. The lead plaintiff also reviews evidence, directs legal strategy, and works closely with attorneys throughout the litigation process.

Allegations Against Ramaco Resources

While the specifics of the complaint vary depending on the law firm filing the action, several public notices about related class actions provide insight into the types of allegations investors have raised, including:

• Claims of materially false or misleading statements: It is alleged that Ramaco leadership provided statements to the investing public that misrepresented the Company’s operations or prospects.
• Omissions of key information: Shareholders assert that certain material facts — such as operational setbacks or business challenges affecting the Company’s performance — were not adequately disclosed.
• Impact on share price: As a result of these alleged misrepresentations or omissions, shares of Ramaco Resources may have been artificially inflated during part of the class period. Later disclosures or market corrections led to financial losses for investors.

For example, other public filings in related cases state that issues such as delayed mining operations or lack of transparency around asset valuations and project timelines may have contributed to negative investor outcomes during and after the class period.

Deadline Reminder and What Investors Should Do

Faruqi & Faruqi’s alert underscores the importance of the March 31, 2026 deadline for investors to act if they want to participate and possibly lead the class action. In order to be considered as lead plaintiff, eligible investors must file a motion with the court prior to that deadline. Investors who do not file in time risk losing the opportunity to have a voice in how the litigation is conducted or to share in any recovery that may occur through settlement or judgment.

The law firm has opened direct communication channels for investors to discuss their potential claims and legal options. Those who believe they may have been harmed financially are encouraged to contact Faruqi & Faruqi LLP directly through the contact details provided in the alert.

Understanding Securities Class Action Lawsuits

Securities class actions are lawsuits brought on behalf of a group of investors who purchased or sold securities and suffered losses due to alleged violations of securities laws. These claims often involve accusations of false or misleading statements, accounting irregularities, failure to disclose material information, or other conduct that affects a company’s share price.

Class actions benefit investors by consolidating similar claims into a single legal action, which can be more efficient and effective than individual lawsuits. A successful class action can result in a settlement or judgment that compensates eligible investors for part of their financial losses, although outcomes vary widely based on the facts and legal arguments involved.

Who Is Eligible to Participate?

To participate in this Ramaco Resources class action, investors must generally meet the following criteria:

• Purchased or acquired Ramaco Resources (METC) securities during the defined class period (between July 31, 2025 and October 23, 2025);
• Suffered financial losses as a result of those investments;
• Filed a timely claim or motion to be considered for lead plaintiff status before March 31, 2026.

Investors who acquired shares outside the class period or who no longer hold losses associated with the relevant transactions should still consult legal counsel to confirm eligibility.

What Happens After the Deadline?

Once the March 31, 2026 deadline passes, the court will review submissions to select a lead plaintiff. The appointed lead plaintiff and counsel will continue the lawsuit on behalf of all eligible members of the class, including discovery, motion practice, potential settlement negotiations, and trial if necessary.

Investors who miss the deadline may still remain class members, but they will not be eligible to influence key decisions in the litigation or potentially benefit from leadership status.
