Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Gevo, Inc. reported first quarter 2026 revenue of $42,948,000, up from $29,109,000 a year earlier, while narrowing its loss from operations to $4,898,000 from $20,139,000. Net loss attributed to Gevo was $21,697,000, or $0.09 per share, unchanged per-share from 2025.

The company generated consolidated non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $8,532,000 versus a loss of $15,351,000 in 2025, reflecting stronger operations at its Gevo North Dakota segment.

Insights

Renewable fuels equity analyst

Gevo grows revenue, swings to positive adjusted EBITDA, and advances key project financing.

Gevo delivered total revenues of $42.9 million for Q1 2026 versus $29.1 million in 2025, while loss from operations improved to $4.9 million from $20.1 million. Consolidated non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA moved to a positive $8.5 million from a loss of $15.4 million.

Management targets approximately $30 million of adjusted EBITDA in 2026, up from $17 million in 2025, and reiterates a run-rate annualized $40 million by year-end 2026. These goals depend on execution of operational improvements and growth initiatives, including Gevo North Dakota and Alcohol-to-Jet development.

The company reports a preliminary agreement with Ara Energy to fund expansion at Gevo North Dakota and multiple non-binding indications of interest for private capital to finance its ATJ-30 “Project North Star.” Future disclosures around final financing terms, the timing of increased Gevo North Dakota output, and progress toward the $30 million and $40 million adjusted EBITDA milestones will clarify how durable this improvement is.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA financial

"progresses towards $40 million annualized run-rate Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA1 and expects $30 million of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA in 2026"

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is a measure of a company's profitability that shows earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, with certain adjustments made to exclude irregular or non-recurring expenses and income. It provides a clearer picture of ongoing operational performance by filtering out items that might distort the core business results. Investors use it to better compare how well different companies are performing without the noise of one-time events.

Alcohol-to-Jet technical

"provide a solid foundation for Alcohol-to-Jet (“ATJ”) growth"

A process that converts alcohols made from plants, waste or other feedstocks into synthetic jet fuel suitable for aircraft engines. Think of it as a chemical recycling line that turns ethanol or similar alcohols into a ready-to-use aviation fuel; it matters to investors because it links renewable feedstocks to a large, regulated fuel market, offering potential revenue, carbon credits, and exposure to demand for lower‑carbon aviation alternatives.

clean fuel production tax credits financial

"Deferred clean fuel production tax credits"

Clean fuel production tax credits are government incentives that reduce the taxes a producer owes based on the amount of low‑carbon or renewable fuel they make, effectively acting like a per‑unit rebate for cleaner fuels. For investors, these credits improve project cash flow and profit margins, lower the break‑even cost, and can change which projects get built — think of them as a stable coupon added to each gallon or unit that makes green fuel businesses more financially attractive.

Remarketed Bonds payable financial

"Remarketed Bonds payable, net"

redeemable non-controlling interest financial

"Redeemable non-controlling interest"

A redeemable non-controlling interest is a minority ownership stake in a subsidiary that can be sold back to or bought out by the parent company or subsidiary at a predetermined time or under certain conditions. For investors, it matters because this claim can act like a future cash obligation or potential dilution, changing the parent’s reported equity, net income allocation, and near‑term cash needs—much like a few partners in a small business who can force the owner to buy them out.

carbon intensity technical

"using an estimated carbon intensity (in gCO2e/MJ) of each product"

Carbon intensity measures how much greenhouse gas a company, product, or activity produces for each unit of output — for example per unit of product made, per megawatt-hour of electricity, or per dollar of revenue. Think of it like miles per gallon but for emissions: lower numbers mean less pollution for the same activity. Investors watch it because higher carbon intensity can signal increased regulatory costs, shifting customer demand, and higher risk of assets losing value as economies move toward cleaner energy.

Exhibit 99.1

Gevo Announces First Quarter 2026 Results and Provides Update on Expansion and Alcohol-to-Jet Project

Company announces preliminary agreement with Ara Energy to fund expansion plans at Gevo North Dakota; has received indications of interest for private capital financing of Alcohol-to-Jet project; progresses towards $40 million annualized run-rate Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA¹ and expects $30 million of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA in 2026

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – May 7, 2026 – Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEVO) (“Gevo”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), a leader in renewable fuels, chemicals and carbon management, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 and provided an update on its growth plans.

“We continue to deliver solid quarterly results while strengthening and expanding our low-carbon ethanol and carbon business to provide a solid foundation for Alcohol-to-Jet (“ATJ”) growth,” said Paul Bloom, chief executive officer of Gevo. “We are on track with our debottlenecking project, which should grow our Gevo North Dakota (“GND”) output by over 10% starting next year. In addition, we are advancing our expansion plans to effectively double our capacity at GND and monetize our pore space through anticipated capital partnerships with Ara Energy and others.”

Bloom continued: “We continue to advance our goal of financing our ATJ-30 project, which we call Project North Star, by the end of the year. We are focused on a broader group of private capital providers and have already received multiple non-binding indications of interest. We believe GND’s operations provide a strong, derisked foundation to support project financing for Project North Star and a steppingstone for Gevo’s franchise development strategy for synthetic aviation fuel (“SAF”) and other fuels and chemicals.”

Leke Agiri, Gevo chief financial officer, added: “Our first quarter results exceeded our expectations given the typical seasonality in ethanol margins. We have launched an internal initiative, which we are calling the ‘EBITDA challenge’, to drive revenue growth, operational performance and cost discipline as we target approximately $30 million of Adjusted EBITDA in 2026, which is up from $17 million of Adjusted EBITDA in 2025. We continue to progress towards a run-rate annualized $40 million of Adjusted EBITDA and reiterate our target of achieving that by the end of this year. The impact of our debottlenecking, expansion and other growth plans is incremental to this target.”

Financial Highlights

● Revenue of $43 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $29 million in the first quarter of 2025.

● Net loss attributable to Gevo in the first quarter of 2026 of $(22) million, or $(0.09) per share, compared to $(22) million, or $(0.09) per share in the first quarter of 2025. The first quarter results include $11 million in loss on extinguishment of bonds and debt modification costs, incurred in connection with the closing of a previously announced debt refinancing and simplification transaction.

● Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $9 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to negative Adjusted EBITDA of $15 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Business Highlights

Update on Alcohol-to-Jet Project Financing Plans

● We launched a private capital raise to fund ATJ-30, which would be the world’s largest ATJ project, after the previously announced withdrawal from the Department of Energy loan guarantee financing process.

o The project, which is expected to benefit from existing cash flows, captive ethanol feedstock production and carbon capture, has received initial non-binding indications of interest for project-level construction financing.

● Anticipated milestones to secure project financing include:

o Engineering: FEL-2 has been completed, and we expect to complete FEL-3 in the second quarter of 2026, after which detailed engineering may continue through the final investment decision (“FID”) date.

o Offtake: We have secured take-or-pay agreements for SAF and carbon emissions reductions (i.e., Scope 1 and Scope 3 reductions), which include components of revenue certainty such as fixed price or fixed floor price. We believe these agreements will satisfy non-dilutive capital providers of the project for about half of the available

capacity at ATJ-30. We are actively working on term sheets and definitive documents that exceed the remaining available capacity with additional potential offtake customers.

Expansion at Gevo North Dakota

● We recently executed a preliminary agreement for co-investment from Ara Energy, a global private equity and infrastructure firm focused on industrial decarbonization, which we believe once finalized and combined with Gevo’s cash flows, will be sufficient to enable Gevo’s previously announced expansion to build a new carbon capture and low-carbon ethanol production facility.

● We are targeting startup for the new facility at GND in 2028. This expansion project is currently in the planning and design phase and is expected to approximately double existing carbon capture and low-carbon ethanol production.

Debottlenecking at Gevo North Dakota

● During the first quarter of 2026, we progressed our previously announced debottlenecking project by completing the necessary equipment tie-ins at GND during a planned shutdown. We believe this will allow us to progress the debottlenecking without impact to planned production at GND. We maintain our target of about 75 million gallons of annual low-carbon ethanol capacity starting next year.

Operational Highlights

● Total carbon emission reduction attributable to our products, including carbon capture, low-carbon ethanol and renewable natural gas (“RNG”), was 140 thousand metric tons² in the first quarter of 2026.

o This amount includes carbon capture and sequestration (“CCS”) at GND of 46 thousand metric tons in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 29 thousand metric tons in the first quarter of 2025, which included just the two months of February and March 2025.

● GND produced 18 million gallons of low carbon ethanol plus 16 thousand tons of dried-distillers grains, 51 thousand tons of modified distillers grains and 5 million pounds of corn oil coproducts in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 11 million gallons of low carbon ethanol plus 12 thousand tons of dried-distillers grains, 30 thousand tons of modified distillers grains and 3 million pounds of corn oil coproducts in the first quarter of 2025, which included just the two months of February and March 2025.

● Our RNG facilities produced 92 thousand MMBtu of RNG in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 80 thousand MMBtu of RNG in the first quarter of 2025.

Forward-Looking Statements

​

Certain statements in this press release may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements relate to a variety of matters, including, without limitation, Adjusted EBITDA expectations, the financing and the timing of our ATJ projects, the financing and timing of our ethanol and CCS expansion project, the amount and timing of financing from Ara Energy, our financial condition, our results of operation and liquidity, our business plans, our business development activities, financial projections related to our business, , our plans to develop our business, our ability to successfully develop, construct, and finance our operations and growth projects, our ability to achieve cash flow from our planned projects, and other statements that are not purely statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements are made based on the current beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the management of Gevo and are subject to significant risks and uncertainty. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and Gevo undertakes no obligation to update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although Gevo believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements involve many risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from what may be expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. For a further discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, as well as risks relating to the business of Gevo in general, see the risk disclosures in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K and other filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by Gevo.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

​

This press release contains financial measures that do not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, allocated intercompany expenses for shared service functions, and non-cash stock-based compensation from GAAP loss from operations. Management believes this measure is useful to supplement its GAAP financial statements with this non-GAAP information because management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. This non-GAAP financial measure also facilitates management’s internal comparisons to Gevo’s historical performance as well as comparisons to the operating results of other companies. In addition, Gevo believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it allows for greater transparency into the indicators used by management as a basis for its financial and operational decision making. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and therefore, should only be read in conjunction with financial information reported under U.S. GAAP when understanding Gevo’s operating performance. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided below.

______________________________________________________________________________________

​

¹ Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure calculated by adding back depreciation and amortization, allocated intercompany expenses for shared service functions, non-cash stock-based compensation, leadership related transition expenses, the change in fair value of derivative instruments and other non-recurring expenses to GAAP loss from operations. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP loss from operations is provided in the financial statement tables following this release. See Non-GAAP Financial Information below.

² Estimate based on volumes of carbon capture and sequestration, low-carbon ethanol and RNG using an estimated carbon intensity (in gCO2e/MJ) of each product based on the May 2025 45Z CF GREET model, compared to fossil-based fuels.
