Peabody Energy CorpSecurities class action lawsuit alleges false statements about Centurion mine, with guidance cuts causing share drops.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP reminds investors of the August 24, 2026 deadline to seek lead plaintiff in a securities class action against Peabody Energy Corporation. The lawsuit alleges the company made false and misleading statements about its Centurion mine, concealing operational challenges that delayed the ramp-up and return to full longwall production. On March 30, 2026, Peabody lowered first-quarter output guidance for Centurion to approximately 250,000 tons from 700,000 tons, citing greater-than-anticipated mine commissioning challenges, causing shares to fall 9.7% to $35.68. On May 5, 2026, the company disclosed it failed to meet the March 2026 ramp-up deadline and cut full-year sales outlook for Centurion to 2.5 million tons from 3.5 million tons, sending shares down 5.7% to $25.00. Investors who purchased Peabody Energy securities between October 14, 2024 and May 4, 2026 may be eligible to participate.
