According to the company, the mine commenced full-scale production in February 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The litigation is focused on the propriety of Peabody\u2019s statements about Centurion\u2019s operational status and production capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Peabody\u2019s management informed investors on February 5, 2026 that \u201cthe team was installing the very last shield and putting the finishing touches on the Centurion Mine[,]\u201d and \u201cour team is charged up and has started mining some of the best metallurgical coal in the world.\u201d The company and its management also assured investors that Centurion is \u201cgoing to ramp up probably about 700,000 tons in Q1, about 1 million to 1.1 million tons in Q2 and Q3, and then it\u2019ll fall back down in Q4 as we have a longwall move.\u201d In response, the market rewarded these statements by sending the price of Peabody shares up about 7.8% the next day.<\/p>\n<p>Just a few weeks later, on March 30, 2026, Peabody filed a current report with the SEC and abruptly disclosed that Centurion \u201cis expected deliver approximately 250,000 tons in the first quarter[.]\u201d In other words, the company slashed Centurion production by about 64%. The news sent the price of Peabody shares down almost 10%.<\/p>\n<p>Then, on May 5, 2026, Peabody reported its Q1 2026 financial results. Of particular concern pertaining to Centurion, management revealed the truth about why it slashed the mine\u2019s Q1 production assurance.<\/p>\n<p>Despite telling investors in February that it was mining Centurion and would produce 700,000 tons in Q1, a new narrative emerged \u2013 \u201cas part of our commissioning in February, we encountered temporary mechanical and electrical issues\u201d \u2013 and \u201c[a]s a result, our full year sales outlook for Centurion is now 2.5 million tons compared to our original expectation of 3.5 million tons.\u201d This full year 28% reduction helped send the price of Peabody shares down nearly 6%.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re focused on whether Peabody and its management were sufficiently transparent about Centurion\u2019s operational capabilities during the Class Period and, if not, whether they violated federal securities laws,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=R3EQztrcKxZzs8yrLnHyaH_Ys5-X-C6HzDETvxWldGAScb7PxT4bB2WGxUbjMlU2D1qU811C_AmC2g7HDSW5fIqtnjwX1-aJSG4tH-eDj8XJoMfuKGTOMzPyB-5DaGV5\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Reed Kathrein<\/strong><\/a>, the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm\u2019s investigation.<\/p>\n<p>If you invested in Peabody Energy and have substantial losses, or have knowledge that will assist the firm\u2019s investigation, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=xsTRdxYxQO7TDQT_-UTe8XWHlstVLcr0kAZjW2qyywNDpvMqF4CDxzPWpTFuTFfMVdlI19RsAgb0l1ZDgRIEHpl3zAlmBSGei_tWhQuX20KnkOPXnhzlSeW6C7EhJuv7\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">submit your losses now<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like more information and answers to other frequently asked questions about the Peabody case and the firm\u2019s investigation, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=EYiP02e0ckySRafAOh84clEFN_RxqEZMcFlel_RP27Pe6lyuyegpoQzxF1BLEd4oCdQbfPkG6jlQbQ2NoX8spquc3b-I_Iqg-IVJ0h0DZZ90IGX9mj7y3o5adWahboAa9Wfw4P599qSacBLIt-XdrxDXCIoVkf_RyKVBempJ52w=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Whistleblowers: <\/strong>Persons with non-public information regarding Peabody Energy should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program.
