Exhibit 99.1

AleAnna, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year
2025 Results
AleAnna, Inc. reports positive Adjusted EBITDA[1]
and net income for the third consecutive quarter.
DALLAS – March 30, 2026 – AleAnna,
Inc. (“AleAnna” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: ANNA) today announced financial and operational results for the fourth
quarter and full year of 2025. AleAnna reported full year net income of $2.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA[1] of $6.6 million.
Fourth Quarter 2025 Results and
Recent Company Highlights:
| ● | AleAnna generated $0.3 million of net income and $3.0 million of Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth
quarter driven by strong production at the Longanesi field generating $9.1 million of revenue in the quarter. |
| | | |
| ● | AleAnna closed the period with a strong cash position of $31.8 million, supporting ongoing development activity and future strategic
initiatives. |
| | | |
| ● | Gradizza Concession secured which represents a first milestone within
a broader growth and value creation Program. |
| | | |
| ● | Following successful establishment of production at Longanesi, and completion of an extensive technical study, AleAnna’s reserves
have increased significantly. |
Financial and Operational
Update
Following production ramp-up and rate stabilization at the Longanesi
field during the first half of 2025, the Company recognized $8.5 million of revenue during the fourth quarter of 2025 from sales of its
share of production from the Longanesi field.
During the fourth quarter, AleAnna
generated $3.0 million of Adjusted EBITDA[1].
During the second quarter, the Company
commenced daily production from its Longanesi field, with the ramp-up significantly exceeding expectations in both timing and volume.
Total production stabilized at approximately 25-30 million cubic feet per day after approximately six weeks. The stabilized production
rate is slightly higher than AleAnna’s budgeted maximum production rate for 2025. All five of Longanesi’s wells are currently
contributing to production.
Management Commentary
Marco Brun, Chief Executive Officer, remarked on AleAnna’s recent
accomplishments: “The fourth quarter marks another significant milestone for AleAnna as we continued to realize strong performance
from our Longanesi field generating approximately $3.0 million of Adjusted EBITDA[1]. We are on track to exceed our expectations
for the performance of the Longanesi field.
[1] This is a non-GAAP financial
measure. Refer to Non-GAAP Performance Measures and Definitions for further details.
In parallel, we continue to deliver
on our plan to advance our broader growth strategy across both conventional and renewable natural gas. With a solid balance sheet, positive
cash flow, and a growing asset base, we are well-positioned to deliver sustainable value creation for our shareholders.”
About AleAnna
AleAnna is a technology-driven energy company focused on bringing sustainability
and new supplies of low-carbon natural gas and renewable natural gas (“RNG”) to Italy, aligning traditional energy operations

three conventional gas discoveries in Italy already made and fourteen new natural gas exploration projects planned this decade, AleAnna

sustainability. AleAnna’s RNG projects’ portfolio includes three plants under development and almost 100 potential projects.
AleAnna operates regional headquarters in Dallas, Texas, and Rome and Milan, Italy.

ALEANNA, INC.
NON-GAAP MEASURES
Non-GAAP Performance Measures
and Definitions
In addition to amounts presented in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we also present certain
supplemental non-GAAP performance measures. We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides both management and
investors with a greater understanding of the Company’s operating results and trends in addition to the results measured in accordance
with GAAP and provides greater comparability across time periods. These measures are not to be considered more relevant or accurate than
the measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore
unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. In compliance with the requirements of the SEC, our non-GAAP
measures are reconciled to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP performance measure. For all non-GAAP measures, neither the SEC
nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on these non-GAAP measures.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA are both non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA is calculated as net income before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, depletion
and amortization. We adjust EBITDA for stock compensation acquisition costs and one-off items such as transaction expenses to reach Adjusted
EBITDA. The purpose of presenting non-GAAP measures is to highlight earnings without finance, taxes, and depreciation, depletion and amortization
expense, as well as stock compensation and transaction expense, and their use is limited to specialized analysis. We present EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it provides useful additional information to investors for specialized analysis of our performance
across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
The following table presents a reconciliation
of Adjusted EBITDA to net income for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2025:
