| BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | NOTE 1—BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Ramaco Resources, Inc. (the “Company,” “Ramaco,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a Delaware corporation formed in October 2016. Our principal corporate and executive offices are located in Lexington, Kentucky with operational offices in Charleston, West Virginia and Sheridan, Wyoming. The Company is an operator and developer of high-quality, low-cost metallurgical coal in southern West Virginia, and southwestern Virginia and is exploring a coal, rare earth and other critical minerals project in Wyoming. Our metallurgical coal development portfolio primarily includes the following properties: Elk Creek, Berwind, Knox Creek, and Maben. We believe each of these properties possesses geologic and logistical advantages that make our coal among the lowest delivered-cost U.S. metallurgical coal to our domestic customer base, North American blast furnace steel mills and coke plants, as well as to international metallurgical coal consumers. In mid-2025, we held a ribbon cutting and groundbreaking event at our rare earth element and other critical mineral exploratory property near Sheridan, Wyoming (the “Brook Mine”). The Brook Mine is currently an exploration stage property with respect to its rare earth element and other critical mineral operations. The Brook Mine initially produced representative mineralized material to serve as feedstock for testing, with the goal of demonstrating the viability of processing rare earth elements and other critical minerals at a full-scale commercial facility and ultimately establishing mineral reserves. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully develop the Brook Mine into a commercial scale mine, and there is no certainty that any part of the inferred mineral resources estimated will be converted into higher confidence mineral resources and eventually mineral reserves in the future. Contiguous to the Brook Mine, the Company operates a carbon research facility related to the potential production of advanced carbon products and materials from coal. The Company’s operations are organized into two reportable segments: Metallurgical Coal and Rare Earths and Critical Minerals. See Note 12 for additional information. Basis of Presentation—These interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2026, as well as the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented. In preparing the accompanying financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. Intercompany balances and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated. There were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Recent Accounting Pronouncements—In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). The amendments in ASU 2024-03 require public business entities to disclose in the notes to the financial statements, among other things, specific information about certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, and depreciation, amortization, and depletion expenses for each caption on the income statement where such expenses are included. ASU 2024-03 is effective starting with the Company’s 2027 annual financial statements and on a quarterly basis thereafter. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments may be applied prospectively to reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the extent to which its disclosures will be affected by ASU 2024-03. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities (“ASU 2025-10”), which provides updated guidance on how to recognize, measure, and present government grants. ASU 2025-10 is effective starting with the Company’s 2029 annual financial statements and on a quarterly basis thereafter, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements.
