The lawsuit seeks to recover damages for the Company’s investors under the federal securities laws. The Complaint alleges that Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Defendants represented that Sable Offshore Corp. had restarted oil production off the coast of California when it had not; and (2) as a result, Defendants’ statements about its business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all times. According to the Complaint on May 28, 2025, during market hours, Investing.com published an article entitled “Sable Offshore Corp stock sinks following court injunction.” The Complaint alleges that it stated the following: Shares of Sable Offshore Corp (NYSE:SOC) tumbled 14% after the California Coastal Commission was granted a preliminary injunction against the company’s pipeline repair and maintenance activities within the coastal zone in unincorporated Santa Barbara County.

(25CV02247) for temporary restraining orders prohibiting Sable Offshore Corp.
