Ramaco Resources ( (METC) ) has issued an announcement.
On May 11, 2026, Ramaco reported a first-quarter 2026 net loss of $18.3 million, a Class A diluted loss per share of $0.30 and negative Adjusted EBITDA of $1.8 million, even as liquidity surged to $488.8 million, more than 310% higher year on year. The board approved a stock dividend of $0.1369 per Class B share, payable in Class B stock on June 26, 2026 to holders of record on June 12, 2026, and the company will settle any fractional entitlements in cash.
Ramaco has repurchased $37 million of Class A stock, roughly 5% of shares, under its $100 million buyback plan while maintaining cash mine costs at $98 per ton and cash margins of $16 per ton despite weaker high-vol coal prices. Management is using the strengthened balance sheet to fund low-vol coal growth projects and advance its Brook Mine rare earths initiative, including a Wyoming pilot plant and new rail and mine expansions, while locking in 3.5 million tons of 2026 coal sales and reiterating full-year guidance.
The most recent analyst rating on (METC) stock is a Hold with a $15.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ramaco Resources stock, see the METC Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on METC Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, METC is a Neutral.
The score is held back primarily by deteriorating recent profitability and a sharp drop in cash generation, despite a notably strengthened balance sheet. Technically, the stock remains in a weak trend (below longer-term moving averages with negative MACD). Offsetting these risks, the earnings call outlined solid 2026 volume guidance with substantial contracting and highlighted very strong liquidity, while valuation is mixed given losses but supported modestly by the dividend yield.
