("Civitas" or the "Company") (NYSE: CIVI) on behalf of purchasers of Civitas securities between February 27, 2024 through February 24, 2025, inclusive (the "Class Period").

Headquartered in Denver, Civitas is a crude oil and natural gas company.

According to the complaint, throughout the Class Period, Defendants failed to disclose that: (i) Civitas was highly likely to significantly reduce its oil production in 2025 due in part to declines after the production peak at the DJ Basin in the fourth quarter of 2024; (ii) increasing its oil production would require the Company to acquire additional acreage and development locations; (iii) the Company would need to implement disruptive cost-reduction measures.

Finally, the Company announced the termination of its Chief Operating Officer Hodge Walker and Chief Transformation Officer Jerome Kelly.

On this news, Civitas's stock price fell $8.95 per share, or 18%, to close at $40.35 per share on February 25, 2025.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. Communicating with any counsel is not necessary to participate or share in any recovery achieved in this case. Any member of the purported class may move the Court to serve as a lead plaintiff through counsel of his/her choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an inactive class member.
