Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Recognition: The Company recorded $348,688 in revenue in Q1 2026, compared to zero in Q1 2025. This revenue stems from the sale of renewable diesel, renewable naphtha, and environmental credits. However, sales of SAF and naphtha during the construction phase are capitalized as a reduction of plant costs.
- Net Loss Expansion: Net loss increased by approximately $10.3 million year-over-year. This was driven by a $4.56 million loss from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities and increased operating expenses.
- Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable decreased significantly from $24.55 million in Q4 2025 to $1.15 million in Q1 2026. This reduction includes a $1.66 million bad debt expense write-off related to the termination of the Phillips 66 agreement (subsequent event).
- Warrant Liability: Warrant liabilities increased from $751,800 at year-end 2025 to $5.32 million at March 31, 2026, due to fair value remeasurement.
Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
Going Concern: Management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the report date. This is due to recurring operating losses, a significant working capital deficit, and the need for additional financing to meet obligations.
Operational Outlook: The Company expects to resume SAF production as early as Q2 2026. Until then, it is producing renewable diesel at approximately 2,000 barrels per day. The Company has entered into a Renewable Fuel Tolling Agreement with BGN to process feedstock owned by BGN.
Material Risks and Contingencies:
- Debt Defaults: The Company is in default on its $112.6 million loan with Greater Nevada Credit Union (GNCU) and its ground lease with Twain GL XXVIII, LLC. While forbearance agreements are in place, failure to resolve these could lead to foreclosure or cessation of operations.
- Legal Proceedings: An arbitration claim was filed by former CEO Mihir Dange. Additionally, the Company is involved in disputes regarding unpaid settlement amounts with Polaris Processing, LLC.
- Proposed Transactions: The Company has entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement with Southern Energy Renewables and DevvStream Corp., subject to closing conditions including revenue and EBITDA targets.
- Customer Concentration: 100% of Q1 2026 revenue and accounts receivable were derived from a single customer (Phillips 66), whose agreement was terminated effective May 1, 2026.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Liquidity Status: Verify the Company's ability to secure immediate financing given the $240 million working capital deficit and cash balance of only ~$1 million.
- Debt Resolution: Confirm the status of negotiations with GNCU and Twain GL XXVIII, LLC regarding the defaulted loans and ground lease, and the terms of the forbearance agreements.
- Revenue Sustainability: Assess the impact of the terminated Phillips 66 agreement and the viability of the new tolling agreement with BGN to generate future revenue.
- Transaction Closing: Monitor the progress of the proposed business combination with Southern Energy Renewables and DevvStream Corp., specifically the satisfaction of closing conditions (e.g., $1B annualized revenue target).
- Internal Controls: Note the material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting, including lack of journal entry review and IT general controls, which were not remediated as of March 31, 2026.
