Significance 6

Director Peter A Leidel sells 179,885 shares (179.9K) for $2,753,607.63 at $15.31; stock down 75.3% from 52-week high.

Director Peter A Leidel executed 3 separate sales totaling 179,885 shares for $2,753,607.63 at $15.31 per share on 2026-03-27, reducing his holdings from 276,072 shares to 96,187 shares—a -65.2% reduction. The sale price of $15.31 is notably above the current price of $14.28 but the stock has fallen -75.3% from its 52-week high of $57.80, indicating significant deterioration in valuation since Leidel's prior sales at this ticker in August and March 2025. Ramaco Resources is currently unprofitable with a net income of $-18,319,000 over its most recent full fiscal year and annual revenue growth of -19.5%, creating a backdrop of operational headwinds. Leidel's prior 5 trades at METC showed a 0% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark, reflecting a pattern of sells that preceded stock gains rather than declines—a material divergence from what would signal prescient exit timing.

Significance 8

Director Leidel sold 1,820,115 shares (1.82M) over 27 transactions for $25,413,787.59 ($25.4M), reducing holdings 37.4%.

Peter A Leidel executed a massive liquidation program across March 2026, divesting 1,820,115 shares (1.82M shares) at prices ranging from $13.48 to $15.18 over 27 separate sales, generating $25,413,787.59. This reduction cut his holdings from 4,872,650 shares to 3,052,535 shares, a -37.4% decrease, representing one of the largest single-filing equity reductions by a director. The filing's scale, complexity (27 coordinated tranches across 20 trading days), and the board-level status of the filer demand scrutiny. Notably, Leidel's prior five trades at METC show no well-timed sells (0 of 5 achieved negative 90-day returns post-execution), and the company is currently unprofitable ($-18,319,000 net income) with revenue declining -19.5% year-over-year, creating a backdrop where a substantial director exit warrants investor attention for context on confidence or capital allocation pressures.

Significance 3

Discovery Capital Management, a 10% owner, sells $3M stake in METC as stock trades well below highs.

Discovery Capital Management, holding roughly one-tenth of Ramaco Resources, sold a substantial block of shares worth approximately $3 million, reducing its position modestly. The sale occurred while the stock is trading significantly below its recent highs and has declined noticeably over recent months, suggesting the fund divested into relative weakness rather than strength. More importantly, the company itself is unprofitable with declining revenues and persistent net losses, indicating the fund may be reassessing exposure to a struggling coal enterprise. This is a portfolio management move by an institutional holder rather than insider sentiment from company leadership, but it does underscore investor caution about the company's current trajectory.

Director Lawrence Bryan H. sells 207,591 shares ($3.1M) in 9 transactions at METC amid -19.5% revenue decline and $-13.3M net loss

Lawrence Bryan H., a director at Ramaco Resources, executed 9 separate sales totaling 207,591 shares for $3,052,893.25 between 2026-03-27 and 2026-03-30, reducing his holdings by 14.4% to 1,232,732 shares. The sales occurred at blended average price of $14.71, currently 4.8% above the current market price of $15.46 but 71.7% below the 52-week high of $54.55. The timing coincides with material operational headwinds: the company reported revenue of $120,996,000.00 in the latest quarter but posted net income of $-13,308,000.00, with full-year revenue declining 19.5% year-over-year and the company unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year. The director's immediately prior same-ticker sales occurred on 2026-03-26, forming a concentrated two-day divestiture window during a period of significant stock price decline from recent highs and negative operating results.

Director Lawrence Bryan H. sold 424,704 shares (12.2% of holdings) for $5,823,990.84 across 15 transactions at Ramaco Resources.

Lawrence Bryan H., a Director at Ramaco Resources, executed 15 separate sales totaling 424,704 shares for $5,823,990.84 between March 24–26, 2026, reducing his holdings from 3,477,239 to 3,052,535 shares. The transactions occurred at prices ranging from $10.78 to $14.06 (blended average $13.71), while the stock now trades at $13.97, down 22.8% over the prior 30 days and down 74.4% from its 52-week high of $54.55. The company reported a net loss of $13,308,000.00 in its latest quarter and negative full-year net income, with annual revenue declining 19.5%, creating a backdrop of operational headwinds. The Director's cross-ticker track record shows a 0.00% well-timed sell rate historically (average 90-day returns after his sells were positive, meaning he has typically sold before subsequent gains), yet his specific pattern at METC shows 5 prior trades with no yet-measurable outcomes to assess local timing accuracy.

Director Lawrence Bryan H. sold 600,000 shares (15.7% of holdings) across 9 transactions for $8,202,840.00 at METC

Lawrence Bryan H., a Director at Ramaco Resources (METC), executed 9 separate sales totaling 600,000 shares for $8,202,840.00 between March 20–24, 2026, at prices ranging from $13.48 to $14.00 (blended average $13.67), reducing his holdings by 15.7% from 3,813,901 shares to 3,213,901 shares. The timing of this liquidation is material: the current stock price of $14.29 is -73.8% from the 52-week high of $54.55, the company reported a negative net income of $-13,308,000.00 on quarterly revenue of $120,996,000.00, and full-year revenue declined 19.5% year-over-year. The substantial sale volume and the company's deteriorating fundamentals warrant attention, though the insider's cross-ticker track record shows a 0.00% well-timed rate on prior sells (average 90-day returns of +38.9%, indicating his prior sales were generally followed by stock appreciation rather than decline).

Director Lawrence Bryan H. sold 800,000 shares (18.8% of holdings) across 9 transactions for $11,359,100.00 at Ramaco Resources (METC)

Lawrence Bryan H., a Director at Ramaco Resources, executed 9 separate sales totaling 800,000 shares (800.0K shares) for $11,359,100.00 over three trading days (March 17–19, 2026), reducing his holdings by 18.8% from 4,255,950 shares to 3,455,950 shares. The blended average sale price of $14.20 occurs against a backdrop of material operational and financial stress: the company is unprofitable with a net income of $-13,308,000.00 over its most recent fiscal year, revenue has declined 19.5% year-over-year, and the stock has fallen 73.5% from its 52-week high of $54.55 to the current price of $14.44. Notably, his prior 5 trades at METC showed positive 90-day returns (ranging 18.3% to 50.3%), meaning the stock rose after each prior sale; in the cross-ticker track record (20 prior sells), the 90d well-timed rate is 0.00%, indicating none of those sales preceded declines. The magnitude and timing of this multi-day liquidation, combined with deteriorating fundamentals and negative revenue growth, merit investor scrutiny.

Director Lawrence Bryan H sells 1,600,000 shares (29.7% of holdings) for $30.0M at $18.75 on 2025-08-08

Director Lawrence Bryan H executed 3 separate sales totaling 1,600,000 shares for $30,000,000.00 on 2025-08-08, reducing his stake from 5,386,797 shares to 3,786,797 shares at an average price of $18.75. The current stock price is $23.49—approximately 25% above the sale price—and the stock has appreciated 41.3% over 30 days and 139.5% over 90 days post-sale. Across his prior 5 same-ticker sales at METC, none were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with all 5 followed by positive returns ranging from +18.3% to +55.4%. The company currently reports net losses of $13,974,000 and an elevated P/E of 213.55, contrasted against a modest market cap of $1,043,286,856.65. This substantial liquidation, while reducing his direct exposure, occurs as the stock approaches its 52-week high of $23.49 after a volatile rebound.

Director LEIDEL PETER A sold 1,600,000 shares (1.60M shares) at $18.75 on 2025-08-08 for $30,000,000.00 ($30.0M)

Director LEIDEL PETER A executed 3 separate sales totaling 1,600,000 shares (1.60M shares) for $30,000,000.00 ($30.0M) at $18.75 per share on 2025-08-08, reducing his holdings from 5,386,797 shares (5.39M shares) to 3,786,797 shares (3.79M shares), a -29.7% reduction in his stake. This sale occurs at $18.75 while the current price is $23.49, placing the transaction 20.1% below the 52-week high and at a point when the stock is up +41.3% over 30 days and +139.5% over 90 days. His prior 5 trades at METC (all sells on 2025-03-27) all generated positive 90-day returns ranging from +32.3% to +55.4%, yielding a same-ticker well-timed rate of 0.0% — meaning none of those prior sales preceded subsequent declines. Cross-ticker, his track record of 20 prior sells shows average 90-day returns of +41.7% with a well-timed rate of 0.00%, indicating his prior sells have consistently been followed by gains, not losses. The backdrop shows negative fundamentals: net income of $-14.0M, annual revenue decline of -3.9%, and a P/E of 213.55 on a market cap of $1.0B. The substantial size and timing of this divestiture relative to the company's negative operating performance warrants attention.

Director Lawrence Bryan H sold 543,377 shares (543.4K shares) for $4,460,774.72 in 18 transactions over 3 days at blended avg $8.21, reducing stake by -34.9%.

Lawrence Bryan H executed 18 separate sales totaling 543,377 shares for $4,460,774.72 across March 25-27, 2025, reducing his holdings from 1,555,113 shares to 1,011,736 shares. The stock has declined 12.5% over 30 days and 16.2% over 90 days, currently trading at $8.38 against a 52-week high of $16.69 (-49.8%), while the company reports negative net income of $-239,000.00 despite $167,411,000.00 in quarterly revenue. His cross-ticker track record shows a 90-day well-timed rate of 0.00%, indicating his prior open-market sells across all tickers have not preceded stock declines, and his same-ticker METC history from the prior day (2025-03-24) consists entirely of sells with outcomes not yet measurable. The magnitude and timing of this concentrated multi-day liquidation, coupled with weak near-term price momentum and the company's profitability pressure, warrants examination of the underlying drivers.
