Business Context and Reporting Period
OPAL Fuels Inc. (OPAL), a Delaware corporation listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, filed this Current Report on Form 8-K on May 11, 2026. The filing serves to announce the Company's financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, via a press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
The filing contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations, which are not guarantees of future performance. Management notes that actual results may differ materially from these statements due to risks and uncertainties detailed in Exhibit 99.1 and other SEC reports.
Management emphasizes that Adjusted EBITDA is not a substitute for GAAP net income and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company expects to continue reporting this non-GAAP measure and may adjust for other items in the future as deemed appropriate.
