Current report
With the change in REC generation passed by the state of North Carolina in 2024, we are in various other negotiations with other utility users to provide swine RECs from our expected first phase production of MWh. We expect our annual REC capacity to be approximately 120 RECs, of which the Duke REC agreement is for 47 RECs. In addition to our Duke REC agreement, in July 2025, we executed a power purchase agreement (“PPA”) for the expected power to be produced from the first phase of electric production. The term of this PPA begins once we commission the facility and is for 10 years covering 100% of the electricity produced. The PPA price is based on set tariffs and considers various impacts including but not limited to, demand, season and time of day, and we believe the average price considering these factors of $48/MWh is in line with various Southeast U.S. power markets ranging from $40 - $60/MWh.
Current report
We continue to optimize the collection and transportation of swine feedstock from the collection farms to the centralized process location, including the removal of low energy content liquid waste. Such efforts include the pelletization of collected waste, and the incorporation of additional upstream processes using screw-press and centrifuge technologies.Our feedstock collection and transportation optimization efforts are expected to have an impact on both the number of farms serviced as well as the associated equipment and operating costs.
Current report
Given this ongoing optimization endeavor, we are increasing the range of capital investment required for the first phase to $180,000 - $220,000. This revised estimate of the total project, to the extent impacting 2025, is included in our 2025 development capital expenditures range.

GreenWave Joint Venture
Current report
In the first quarter of 2025, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Pesta Energy, LLC, entered into an agreement with Pioneer Renewables Energy Marketing, LLC to form a joint venture, GreenWave Energy Partners, LLC (“Greenwave”). The primary goal of the joint venture is to help address the limited capacity of RNG utilization for transportation by offering third party RNG volumes access to exclusive unique and proprietary transportation pathways. We expect to act as the RIN separator for the joint venture and expect to receive separated RINs as distributions from the joint venture. Our capital investment in the joint venture is estimated to be up to approximately $4,500 subject to various and certain requirements as defined in the underlying agreements.

Income Tax and Tax Attributes
Current report
On July 4, 2025, the Tax Reconciliation Act was signed into law. The legislation includes significant tax and spending policies, extends or enhances various components of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and made various changes to tax credits included in the Inflation Reduction Act. Refer to Note 14 – Income Taxes for more information on our review of the Tax Reconciliation Act.
Current report
Included within our 2025 second quarter tax provision, we recorded approximately $826 in tax benefits related to IRC code section 48 investment tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act for certain qualifying property resulting from our 2024 Pico digestion expansion project. We recorded this tax benefit during the 2025 second quarter but have been working through the tax benefit calculation since the project was placed into service and as we assessed the IRS rulemaking. Our project study was completed during the second quarter of 2025 sufficient for us to record the benefit.
Current report
Based on our Pico digestion expansion project experience, for other large and qualifying projects we believe that 50 – 75% of project capital will qualify for IRC code section 48 investment tax credits and, depending on a variety of factors for projects started within various safe harbor guidelines, the tax benefits could be up to 30%. For qualifying projects which do not meet the various safe harbor guidelines, we expect the tax benefits to range between 6 – 12% for qualifying assets. Having placed our Second Apex RNG Facility into service in June 2025, we expect to generate tax attribute benefits in our 2025 tax year and expect to include these benefits in our annual tax provision calculations as of December 31, 2025. Based upon the midpoint of the Second Apex RNG facility capital range of $35,000, approximately 50% of the project capital qualifying, and with safe harbor guidelines not being met, we currently estimate IRC code section 48 investment tax credits could range between $1,050 - $2,100.
Current report
As it relates to our previously announced capital expectations for our Montauk Ag Renewables development, we similarly estimate IRC code section 48 investment tax credits could range between $4,500 - $9,000. As we currently expect revenue producing activities to begin in 2026, we expect Montauk Ag Renewables tax attributes to be included in our annual 2026 tax provision calculations. However, we have not commenced any reviews for our Montauk Ag Renewables development.
Current report
We continue to review the impacts of the Tax Reconciliation Act on our expectations of IRC code section 48 investment tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act, but we do not currently expect to transfer, as applicable, any tax attributes generated. As our reviews on the Tax Reconciliation Act are ongoing, we provide no assurances that the timing and range of tax attributes will meet our expectations.
Current report
On June 13, 2025, the EPA released both the Partial Waiver of the 2024 Cellulosic Biofuel Volume Requirement (Final Rule) and RFS Standards for 2026 and 2027, Partial Waiver of 2025 Cellulosic Biofuel Volume Requirement, and Other Changes (Proposed Rule). The final 2024 cellulosic biofuel volume requirement was reduced from 1,090 to 1,010 million D3 RINs. This reduction was based on actual volumes of D3 RINs generated in 2024. In addition, the EPA is making Cellulosic Waiver Credits ("CWCs") available for 2024 as an additional compliance flexibility for obligated parties.
Current report
In the EPA’s proposed rule released on June 13, 2025, the cellulosic biofuel volumes for 2025 were proposed to be reduced from 1,376 to 1,190 RINs and make CWCs available for 2025. The proposed cellulosic biofuel volume requirements for 2026 and 2027 are 1,300 and 1,360 D3 RINs, respectively. These volumes are less than the EPA had previously finalized for 2025 and are based on their belief that cellulosic RIN generation from biogas-derived CNG/LNG during 2026-2030 will be constrained by the total usage capacity of CNG/LNG as transportation fuel. These proposed rules are subject to comment periods prior to finalization.
Current report
On March 15, 2025, the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025 was signed into law. In May 2025 we were informed that the law eliminated the United States Department of Agriculture Advanced Biofuel Payment Program. We received approximately $200 annually since 2021 under this program.
Current report
We produced 1,413 MMBtu of RNG during the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 31 MMBtu (2.2%) compared to 1,382 MMBtu produced in the second quarter of 2024. Our Rumpke facility produced 67 MMBtu more in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024 as a result of a previously disclosed reduced feedstock inlet and process equipment failures which occurred in the second quarter of 2024. Offsetting the increase was the fourth quarter of 2024 sale of our Southern facility which produced 22 MMBtu in the second quarter of 2024.
Current report
Total general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were $9,044, an increase of $307 (3.5%) compared to $8,737 for the second quarter of 2024. Employee related costs, including stock-based compensation costs were $6,099 in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $733 (13.7%) compared to $5,366 in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in non-cash stock-based compensation costs is related to a one-time acceleration of $1,550 in the second quarter of 2025 due to the termination of an employee which we do not anticipate to recur in the second half of 2025. This compares to unrecognized stock-based compensation costs of $4,900 that will be recognized over approximately 3.25 years.
Current report
Operating and maintenance expenses for our Renewable Electricity facilities in the second quarter of 2025 were $4,809, an increase of $92 (2.0%) compared to $4,717 in the second quarter of 2024. We do not anticipate approximately $1,399 of discrete expenses primarily associated with our Bowerman facility will recur in the second half of 2025 as they relate to non-linear annual preventative maintenance. The second quarter of 2025 increase was primarily driven by an increase in non-capitalizable costs at our Montauk Ag Renewables projects. Our Tulsa facility operating and maintenance expenses decreased approximately $188 primarily related to wellfield collection enhancements completed in the second quarter of 2024.
Current report
We calculated and recorded impairment losses of $377 in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $206 (120.5%) compared to $171 in the second quarter of 2024. The increase primarily relates to specifically identified assets deemed obsolete or non-operable.
Current report
Other expenses in the second quarter of 2025 was $1,256, flat compared to $1,236 in the second quarter of 2024.

Renewable Electricity Generation Revenues
Current report
We produced approximately 88 MWh in Renewable Electricity in the first six months of 2025, a decrease of 11 MWh (11.1%) from 99 MWh in the first six months of 2024. Our Security facility produced approximately 6 fewer MWh in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 as a result of ceasing operations in connection with the first quarter of 2024 sale. Our Bowerman facility produced approximately 5 fewer MWh in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 primarily related to the planned preventative engine maintenance that was completed in the first six months of 2025.
Current report
Revenues from Renewable Electricity facilities in the first six months of 2025 were $8,450, a decrease of $850 (9.1%) compared to $9,300 in the first six months of 2024. The decrease is primarily driven by the decrease in our Bowerman facility production volumes and the cessation of operation at our Security facility.

With the change in REC generation passed by the state of North Carolina in 2024, we are in various other negotiations with other utility users to provide swine RECs from our expected first phase production of MWh. We continue to negotiate with potential power purchase agreement providers related to the resulting power generation derived from swine waste. We continue to test the most efficient methods of both collecting and transporting the swine feedstock from the collection farms to the centralized process location, including the removal of low energy content liquid waste. These methods include the pelletization of collected waste.

Including the original equipment acquired in the Montauk Ag Renewables Acquisition, the Turkey, North Carolina asset acquisition, and the relocation of the Magnolia, NC site reactor to Turkey, NC, we currently expect the first phase capital investment to range between $140,000 and $160,000.
Previous report
The EPA did not meet the statutorily required deadline of November 2024 to finalize 2026 obligations under the RFS. The EPA is expected to target May 2025 to propose RFS obligations for 2026 and 2027. On December 12, 2024, the EPA proposed a partial waiver of 2024 Cellulosic Biofuel Volume Requirements due to the projected shortfall of D3 RINs available to meet the 2024 RVO. This proposal is still pending, and it is unknown when this proposed rule will be finalized (if at all) in 2025.

Previous wording
Our profitability is highly dependent on the market price of Environmental Attributes, including the market price for RINs. As we self-market a significant portion of our RINs, a decision not to commit to transfer available RINs during a period will impact our revenue and operating profit. We sold all 9,885 D3 RINs generated and available for sale from 2024 RNG production in the first quarter of 2025. The impact of EPA actions associated with implementation of BRRR K2 separation and the extension of the 2024 RIN compliance period has temporarily impacted the commitment timing of the Company. As a result, we have approximately 3,916 RINs in inventory from 2025 RNG production as March 31, 2025. We have subsequently entered into commitments to transfer the majority of our RINs in inventory as of March 31, 2025 at prices approximating to the D3 RIN index. The average D3 RIN index price for the first quarter of 2025 was approximately $2.43. The following table summarizes select historical data related to RINs generated, RINs sold, and RINs generated but unsold. As we self-market a significant portion of our RINs and as the RFS is based on annual compliance, any strategic decision to not monetize available RINs in a quarter could impact the timing of operating revenues recognized during a fiscal year. Realized prices for Environmental Attributes monetized in a year may not correspond directly to index prices due to the forward selling of commitments. The timing of RIN transfers can vary year over year and by period within a year and is contingent on various factors including, but not limited to: (a) the Company’s expectations on RIN index price, (b) operational needs of the Company, (c) obligated parties purchase needs, or (d) the type of customer among other matters.

We had approximately 3,009 RINs generated but unseparated at June 30, 2025 which reduced the amount of RINs available for sale as of June 30, 2025. We expect this timing between RINs generated but unseparated and RINs available for sale to only impact 2025 which is the year BRRR became effective. We had approximately 108 RINs in inventory from 2025 RNG production as of June 30, 2025. These RINs were transferred in July under a commitment entered into in June 2025 at a price of $2.42. The average D3 RIN index price for the second quarter of 2025 was approximately $2.36.

In 2022, we announced the planned construction of a second RNG processing facility at the Apex landfill. The construction of a second facility under our existing fuel supply agreement was triggered by biogas feedstock volumes exceeding production capabilities discussions with the landfill host, and the host's waste intake forecasted projections. As the landfill host increases waste intake, we believe the additional 2,100 MMBtu per day of production capacity will enable us to process the forecasted increase in biogas feedstock volumes. We continue to expect there will be a period where we have excess availability capacity after the second facility is commissioned while the landfill host increases their waste intake. We are in commissioning stage which we expect to be complete in the second quarter of 2025.
Current wording
In June 2025, we successfully completed the construction and commissioning of a second RNG processing facility at the Apex landfill. The construction of a second facility under our existing fuel supply agreement was triggered by biogas feedstock volumes exceeding production capabilities discussions with the landfill host, and the host's waste intake forecasted projections. As the landfill host increases waste intake, we believe the additional 2,100 MMBtu per day of production capacity will enable us to process the forecasted increase in biogas feedstock volumes. We continue to expect there will be a period where we have excess availability capacity after the second facility is commissioned while the landfill host increases their waste intake. We continue to collaborate with the landfill host to mitigate impacts from wellfield extraction factors which could impact capacity utilization.
Previous wording
In the first quarter of 2025, we received notice from the utility that it will no longer accept RNG into its distribution system, which was in opposition of the letter of intent that was issued when we were awarded the gas rights to the site. As a result, we impaired the capital associated with the early design of RNG equipment. We continue to review various alternatives related to interconnection opportunities as part of our considerations for offtake options with the understanding those alternatives may differ from initial development project assumptions, including physical and virtual and fixed interconnections. We are also reviewing alternatives for this site around producing energy other than RNG. We have paused further capital expenditures related to this site while we consider all alternatives.

In 2023, we announced a planned development of a renewable natural gas landfill project in Irvine, CA at the Frank R. Bowerman Landfill to process the large and growing volumes of biogas in excess of the existing capacity of the REG facility. We expect facility commissioning in 2027 and expect the capital investment to range between $85,000 - $95,000. As part of the agreement to develop the RNG plant, we agreed to work with the landfill host on the landfill's management of its wellfield and flare facility permit requirements. We continue to work with the landfill host on the landfill’s management of its wellfield and flare facility permit requirements so that we continue to assess what, if any, impacts these changes could have on receipt of required regional regulatory construction permits. The project is anticipated to have production nameplate capacity of approximately 3,600 MMBtu per day, assuming currently forecasted biogas feedstock volumes projected to be available from the host landfill at the time of commissioning. We continue to incur capital expenditures for this project.

In 2024, we signed a contract for the delivery of 140 thousand tons per year of biogenic carbon dioxide (“CO2”). We intend to capture, clean and liquefy CO2 at select Texas facilities, at which point it will be transported to EE North America (“EENA”), a Texas-based e-methanol facility. The delivery term is expected to last at least 15 years with first delivery expected to begin in 2027. We have completed the initial site surveys related to location of the CO2 processing equipment, evaluated equipment suppliers, and started engineering design. We continue to target a commissioning start in 2027 and expect the capital investment to begin in the second quarter of 2025 for long lead equipment and design engineering.

The delivery term is expected to last at least 15 years with first delivery expected to begin in 2027. During the period prior to commissioning, we have been recognizing an exclusivity fee related to the minimum tons of CO2. The annual price per ton under the contract is adjusted annually by the U.S. consumer price index. The agreement with EENA includes a 50% sharing component of any available tax attributes generated by us under code section 45Q, Carbon dioxide sequestration credit, in the Inflation Reduction Act, as applicable. There are other revenue sharing components under the agreement to the extent we are able to produce CO2 prior to EENA accepting delivery. Excluding any estimate of tax attributes and including a U.S. consumer price index range between 2.5 – 3.0% annually, we estimate that the total revenues under this 15 year term to annually provide a minimum of 140 tons of CO2 will range between $170,000 – $201,000 in total. We have completed the initial site surveys related to location of the CO2 processing equipment, evaluated equipment suppliers, and started engineering design. We continue to target a commissioning start in 2027 and began incurring capital expenditures for long lead items and design engineering in the second quarter of 2025.

In 2025, we announced the conversion of our Tulsa, Oklahoma Renewable Electric Generation facility to RNG project. The project will offer a variable inlet capacity providing production capacity of approximately 1,500 MMBtu per day and designed to beneficially process all of the available inlet gas feedstock from its landfill host. We expect to target a commissioning start in 2027 and expect to begin incurring capital expenditures for long lead items in the second quarter of 2025.

We continue to develop the opportunities with Montauk Ag Renewables and can give no assurances that our plans related to this acquisition will meet our expectations. Utility interconnection, both inbound to and outbound from our centralized Turkey, NC processing facility is dependent on factors outside of our control. Regulatory development and offtake negotiations could delay our ability to fully optimize or meet the timing expectations related to revenue producing activities. Our current construction timeline and costs are subject to delays or costs increases, respectively. We continue to design and plan for the development of the Turkey, NC facility to be used for commercial production. We expect the Magnolia, NC location to be used for various feedstock processing needs. Based on our current development timeline expectations, we expect to commence significant revenue generating activities in 2026. We intend to contract with additional farms to secure feedstock sources for future production processes.

In October 2024, we announced a collaboration with Emvolon to transform methane emissions from waste stream biogas into high-value carbon negative fuel. Leveraging Emvolon's patented technology, the initial pilot is a small-scale demonstration of recovering and converting biogas into green methanol. The pilot project at our Atascocita facility in Houston, TX continues with Emvolon having installed their patented containerized processing technology. We do not expect short term financial benefits from this demonstration nor a disruption to our operations.

Regulatory, environmental and social factors are key drivers that incentivize the development of RNG and Renewable Electricity projects and influence the economics of these projects. We are subject to the possibility of legislative and regulatory changes to certain incentives, such as RINs, RECs and GHG initiatives. On July 12, 2023, the EPA issued final rules in the Federal Register for the RFS volume requirements for 2023-2025. Final volumes for cellulosic biofuel were set at 838, 1,090 and 1,376 million RINs for the three years 2023, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The final rule also included significant changes to the existing RFS program, referred to as BRRR, that will require the RNG industry to modify how all RINs are generated. On January 1, 2025, all RFS participants must comply with BRRR provisions. We have registered all of our facilities under the BRRR provisions and have obtained Q-RIN status for RIN generation starting January 1, 2025. Under the BRRR provisions, the EPA finalized a limitation that biogas from one facility has a single use under the RFS as proposed (i.e., biointermediate, RNG or CNG/LNG via biogas closed distribution system). The EPA clarified that this does not preclude non-RFS uses at same facility.

In December 2023, CARB released the formal proposal for new LCFS rules. The proposed rules will increase the stringency of CI reduction targets from 20% to 30% in 2030 and create a 2045 target of 90%. This reduction would have the potential impact of reducing the number of net credits in the program. CARB approved these new rules in November 2024, however in February 2025, the California Office of Administrative Law disapproved the changes because the regulations were not written in a way that persons directly affected by them could easily understand. CARB believes this disapproval to be routine and indicated its intention to resubmit the rules, which it has until June 2025 to do. CARB submitted a third notice of proposed regulations for amendments on April 11, 2025. Any substantive changes would be subject to a public comment period. The industry may see pricing volatility including potential decreases to LCFS credit prices whereas the amendments as originally approved were expected to increase LCFS credit prices. Also in the rules is a phase out of avoided methane crediting for dairy and swine manure pathways by 2040 for CNG usage and through 2045 for RNG used to produce hydrogen. The RNG deliverability/book and claim provisions for out-of-region projects will be eliminated for all projects that break ground after 2030. These projects will be required to demonstrate physical deliverability requirements beginning in 2041. Changes to the LCFS program require annual verification of the CI score assigned to a project. Annual verification could significantly affect the profitability of a project, particularly in the case of a livestock farm project.

Renewable Natural Gas Revenues: We record revenues from the production and sale of RNG and the generation and sale of the Environmental Attributes derived from RNG, such as RINs and LCFS credits. Our RNG revenues from Environmental Attributes are recorded net of a portion of Environmental Attributes shared with off-take counterparties as consideration for such counterparties using the RNG as a transportation fuel. We had certain pathway provider sharing arrangements expiring throughout 2024 and in 2025. While we have not yet experienced a significant increase in Environmental Attributes shared with pathway providers in our renewals, our most recent pathway renewals have been at higher percentages than our historical percentages and the currently proposed pathway renewals are for percentages significantly higher than our historical arrangements. Historically, we have monetized less than 25% of our RNG volumes under these fixed-price agreements. We are considering entry into multiple short-term contracts throughout 2025, some potentially increasing our historical percentage of volumes monetized under fixed-price arrangements, to provide time for mitigation of these recent market trends.

Related to our gas rights agreement with our landfill host at our Rumpke RNG location, in 2025, we began the process of the relocation of our existing Rumpke RNG facility. The timing of this project and requirement to relocate the facility coincides with the landfills filling practices to move into the existing area of our now current Rumpke RNG facility and is contractually obligated. We expect to begin capital expenditures for long lead time equipment in the second quarter of 2025 and expect to target a commissioning in 2028. Depending on the timing of capital expenditure and potential other production capabilities in addition to RNG production related to the full design, we estimate capital expenditures to range between $80,000 - $110,000. This project is included within our 2025 development capital expenditures.

We have historically funded our growth and capital expenditures with our working capital, cash flow from operations and debt financing. We expect our non-development 2025 capital expenditures to range between $14,000 and $17,000. Our 2025 non-development capital plans include annual preventative maintenance expenditures, annual wellfield expansion projects, and other specific facility improvements. Additionally, we estimate that our existing 2025 development capital expenditures will range between $100,000 and $150,000. The majority of our 2025 development capital expenditures are related to our ongoing development of Montauk Ag Renewables, the second Apex facility, the Bowerman RNG project, the EENA CO2 project, Tulsa RNG project and our Rumpke RNG relocation project. Our Amended Credit Agreement provides us with a $120,000 revolving credit facility, with a $75,000 accordion option, providing us with access to additional capital to implement our acquisition and development strategy. As we continue to explore strategic growth opportunities, we have not entered into nonbinding letters of intent for any opportunity, we provide no assurances that our plans related to any or all of these strategic opportunities will progress to definitive agreements. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and credit availability under our Amended Credit Agreement would allow us to pursue and close on our identified strategic growth opportunities in addition to the previously discussed non-development and development capital expenditures.

Royalties, transportation, gathering, and production fuel expenses in the first six months of 2025 were $16,739, an increase of $1,146 (7.3%) compared to $15,593 in the first six months of 2024. We make royalty payments to our fuel supply site partners on the commodities we produce and the associated Environmental Attributes. These royalty payments are typically structured as a percentage of revenue subject to a cap, with fixed minimum payments when Environmental Attribute prices fall below a defined threshold. To the extent commodity and Environmental Attributes’ prices fluctuate, our royalty payments may fluctuate upon renewal or extension of a fuel supply agreement or in connection with new projects. Our fuel supply agreements are typically structured as 20-year contracts, providing long-term visibility into the margin impact of future royalty payments.
