First
Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Revenue
for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $21,059,130, compared to $16,272,673 in the first quarter of 2025, representing growth
of 29% year-over-year. Revenue growth was driven by continued expansion of the Company’s mobile fueling operations, including growth
in fuel volumes delivered and an increase in the average price per gallon across existing markets.
Gross
profit increased to $1,711,710, compared to $517,969 in the first quarter of 2025. Gross margin percentage expanded to 8.1% from 3.2%
in the prior-year period, reflecting continued improvements in route optimization, fleet utilization, and operating efficiency across
the Company’s fueling platform.
Loss
from operations was $10,093,843 for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $5,753,872 for the first quarter of 2025. The increase in
operating loss was primarily attributable to $7,859,677 in non-cash stock-based compensation expense recorded during the first quarter
of 2026 in connection with shares issued for services. Excluding this non-cash item, the Company continued to make progress on cost discipline
relative to revenue growth.
Net
loss was $10,766,492 for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $8,937,999 for the first quarter of 2025. For the first quarter of 2026,
net loss available to common stockholders was $10,880,521 after preferred stock dividends, compared to $8,960,972 for the first quarter
of 2025.
Interest
expense was $680,596 for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $3,323,397 for the first quarter of 2025, representing an 80% reduction
year-over-year and reflecting lower financing-related charges and reduced amortization of debt discounts as a result of the Company’s
refinancing activity in 2025.
The
Company continues to advance its energy infrastructure segment, including its smart microgrid pipeline, and remains focused on scaling
and optimizing its mobile fueling operations. Both segments are being managed with an emphasis on disciplined operational and fiscal
execution.
Adjusted
EBITDA
The
following table presents a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
| Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation | |
Q1 2026 | | |
Q1 2025 | |
| Net loss | |
$ | (10,766,492 | ) | |

| Adjusted EBITDA | |
$ | (1,155,146 | ) | |
$ | (3,395,542 | ) |
Adjusted
EBITDA was $(1,155,146) for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $(3,395,542) for the first quarter of 2025. The $2,240,396 improvement
year-over-year reflects the significant reduction in interest expense and improvement in gross profit, partially offset by the increase
in non-cash stock-based compensation expense recorded during the first quarter of 2026.

Looking
Ahead: Scaling the Integrated Energy Platform
NextNRG
is focused on expanding its integrated platform across three infrastructure-aligned revenue streams:

municipal, industrial and federal markets through power purchase agreements and SaaS arrangements.
●
Wireless EV Charging: Progressing from development toward commercial deployment, with a focus on fleet operators, logistics facilities,

and disciplined cost management.
Non-GAAP
Financial Measures
Adjusted
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), nor should it be viewed as a substitute for operating
results determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the impact of net interest
expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense, provides useful supplemental information that is essential
to a proper understanding of our financial results. Non-GAAP measures are not formally defined by GAAP, and other entities may use calculation
methods that differ from ours for the purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA. As a complement to GAAP financial measures, we believe
that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors who follow the practice of some investment analysts who adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude
items that may obscure underlying performance and distort comparability. See the reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA above.
