Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Insights

Agreement uses standard M&A protections and multi-party closing conditions.

The Business Combination Agreement includes customary representations, covenants, and conditionality such as regulatory approvals, exchange listing approvals, and shareholder votes. It also contains material conditions tied to $400,000,000 state bond authorization and specific funding milestones.

Key legal risks include enforceability of the Support & Lock-Up Agreements, the domestication step, and termination-triggered fees. Closing depends on multiple interlocking waivers and third-party approvals; timing and satisfaction of those conditions will determine whether the transaction proceeds.

Financial milestones and funding gates drive deal economics and execution risk.

The BCA conditions include Southern securing $400,000,000 in state‑supported bonds, aggregate cash/funding thresholds of $10,000,000, and DevvStream/Company revenue and $100,000,000 annualized EBITDA targets by June 30, 2026. These metrics are material operational gates the parties must meet.

Investors should watch filings for the Registration Statement, bond authorization announcements, and evidence of Plant Conversion Funding; failure to meet these milestones could terminate the agreement or trigger termination fees described in the BCA.

Southern bond authorization $400,000,000 State approval to issue bonds (required condition)
Post-closing cash/funding threshold $10,000,000 Aggregate Southern unrestricted cash plus Plant Conversion Funding prior to Effective Time
DevvStream revenue target $1,000,000,000 Annualized blended fuel product revenue target by June 30, 2026
DevvStream EBITDA target $100,000,000 Annualized EBITDA minimum by June 30, 2026
DevvStream termination fee $510,000 Fee owed to Company in certain DevvStream-rupture scenarios
Company termination payments $510,000 and $1,190,000 Amounts payable by Company to DevvStream and Southern in certain termination events
Expense reimbursement caps $170,000 and $397,000 Caps for documented expense reimbursement in specific termination scenarios
Business Combination Agreement legal
"entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement dated April 13, 2026"
A business combination agreement is a detailed contract that lays out the terms for two companies to join together—covering price, how ownership will be split, the steps needed to close the deal, and what each side promises to do or avoid before closing. For investors it matters because the agreement determines potential changes in value, control, timing, and risk exposure—think of it like the playbook for a merger that shows who wins, who pays, and what could still derail the plan.
Domestication legal
"the Domestication shall have been completed"
Domestication is the legal process by which a company changes its official ‘legal home’ from one place to another without creating a new business entity, similar to moving a household’s registration from one city to another while keeping the same people and possessions. It matters to investors because it can alter which laws, tax rules, reporting standards and shareholder rights apply, potentially affecting costs, governance and the value or liquidity of the company’s shares.

As previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 26, 2026, XCF Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a transaction term sheet, dated January 26, 2026, with DevvStream Corp., an Alberta corporation (“DevvStream”), and Southern Energy Renewables Inc., a Louisiana corporation (“Southern”), setting forth the principal terms and conditions of a proposed business combination.

 

Following the execution of the term sheet, on April 13, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “BCA” and the transactions contemplated thereby, collectively, the “Transactions”), by and among the Company, DevvStream, Southern, DevvStream Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“DevvStream Merger Sub”), and Southern Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Southern Merger Sub”). The terms of the Transactions, which contain customary representations and warranties, covenants and closing conditions, are summarized below. The Transactions remain subject to customary closing conditions as well as the other terms, closing conditions and termination events (including failure to timely receive the DevvStream Fairness Opinion and the Company Fairness Opinion) set forth in the BCA. Capitalized terms used in this Current Report on Form 8-K but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the BCA.

 

Structure of the Transactions

 

The Transactions are structured as follows:

 

(a)prior to the Effective Time of the Mergers, DevvStream will migrate to and domesticate as a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”);

 

(b)at the Effective Time, Southern Merger Sub will merge with and into Southern with Southern surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Southern Merger”), pursuant to which existing equity in Southern will be exchanged for an aggregate number of Company Common Shares equal to the Southern Consideration Shares; and

 

(a)at the Effective Time, DevvStream Merger Sub will merge with and into DevvStream with DevvStream surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “DevvStream Merger” and, together with the Southern Merger, the “Mergers”), pursuant to which each DevvStream share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (and following the Domestication) will be automatically cancelled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive a number of Company Common Shares equal to the DevvStream Per Share Consideration.

 

Treatment of DevvStream Equity Awards

 

Pursuant to the BCA, outstanding DevvStream Warrants, DevvStream Options, DevvStream RSUs, and DevvStream Convertible Notes will be assumed by the Company and automatically converted into equivalent rights exercisable for or convertible into Company Common Shares, with the number of shares and exercise or conversion prices adjusted based on the DevvStream Per Share Consideration.

 

Proxy Statement and Stockholder Meeting

 

As promptly as practicable after the execution of the BCA, the Company will prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 (or other appropriate form) in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of the Company Common Shares to be issued in the Mergers (the “Registration Statement”), which will also contain the proxy statement of the Company and a circular for DevvStream. The Company and DevvStream will convene special meetings of their respective shareholders to consider the Transactions.

Termination Fees

 

DevvStream will owe a termination fee of $510,000 to the Company if (a) the Company or Southern terminates the BCA due to DevvStream changing its board recommendation, (b) DevvStream terminates the BCA to enter into a Superior Proposal, or (c) within 12 months after termination of the BCA for certain reasons (such as a breach by DevvStream, failure to obtain DevvStream Shareholder Approval, or reaching the Outside Date), DevvStream consummates or enters into a definitive agreement for an Acquisition Proposal that was made known prior to termination.

 

The Company will owe a termination fee of $510,000 to DevvStream and $1,190,000 to Southern if (a) DevvStream or Southern terminates the BCA due to the Company changing its board recommendation, (b) the Company terminates the BCA to enter into a Superior Proposal, or (c) within 12 months after termination of the BCA for certain reasons (such as a breach by the Company, failure to obtain Company Shareholder Approval, or reaching the Outside Date), the Company consummates or enters into a definitive agreement for an Acquisition Proposal that was made known prior to termination.

 

The Parties acknowledge that no termination fee shall be owed if either of DevvStream or the Company validly terminate the BCA due to the failure to the DevvStream Fairness Opinion or the Company Fairness Opinion, respectively, as provided in the BCA.

 

Fees and Expenses

 

Except as expressly provided in the BCA, each Party will bear its own expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions, whether or not the Transactions are consummated. However, if the BCA is terminated because the requisite DevvStream Shareholder Approval is not obtained, DevvStream is required to reimburse the Company for reasonable, documented expenses up to $170,000. Conversely, if the BCA is terminated because the requisite Company Shareholder Approval is not obtained, the Company is required to reimburse DevvStream for reasonable, documented expenses up to $170,000 and reimburse Southern for reasonable, documented expenses up to $397,000. Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the Transactions will be paid equally by the Parties.

Pursuant to the Support & Lock-Up Agreements, the respective securityholders agreed to vote any covered shares held by them in favor of the Transactions and against any competing alternative transactions. Because the Company Core Securityholders and DevvStream Core Securityholders hold a sufficient number of voting shares to approve the Transactions on behalf of the Company and DevvStream, respectively, the requisite shareholder approvals for the Company and DevvStream are ensured, provided that such securityholders comply with their voting obligations under the Support & Lock-Up Agreements. Additionally, the securityholders agreed to certain transfer and lock-up restrictions, subject to customary exceptions for permitted transfers.

 

Asset Spin

 

Pursuant to the BCA, the Parties have agreed to use their commercially reasonable efforts to, if mutually desirable, agree on a reasonable structure to spin-out or sell a newly formed, publicly listed holding company shell of DevvStream immediately following the Effective Time on commercially reasonable terms so long as such transaction does not (i) result in any adverse economic, tax, or legal consequences to the Company or Southern, or (ii) cause any material delay in the consummation of the Transactions.

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, are forward-looking statements, including: statements regarding the expected timing and structure of the proposed transaction; the ability of the parties to complete the proposed transaction considering the various closing conditions; the expected benefits of the proposed transaction; legal, economic, and regulatory conditions; and any assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements concern future circumstances and results and other statements that are not historical facts and are sometimes identified by the words “aim,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “potential,” “intend,” “expect,” “endeavor,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “overestimate,” “underestimate,” “believe,” “plan,” “could,” “would,” “project,” “predict,” “continue,” “target,” or the negatives of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern the Company’s, DevvStream’s, or Southern’s expectations, strategy, priorities, plans, or intentions. Forward-looking statements are based upon current plans, estimates, expectations, and assumptions that are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We can give no assurance that such plans, estimates, or expectations will be achieved, and therefore, actual results may differ materially from any plans, estimates, or expectations in such forward-looking statements.

 

Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, developments or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results, developments or outcomes to differ materially include, among others: (1) changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political, regulatory and legal conditions; (2) the risk that the plant conversion is delayed, not completed on the anticipated timeline, or requires additional capital beyond current expectations; (3) the risk that the Company is unable to achieve the specified annualized revenue and EBITDA thresholds, which depend in significant part on the Company’s business performance, operating results, market demand, execution capabilities, and other factors; (4) the risk that Southern does not receive authorization to issue up to $400 million of bonds, that such bonds are delayed, issued on less favorable terms, or not issued at all; (5) the risk that the Company is unable to obtain or maintain compliance with applicable Nasdaq continued listing standards, including regaining compliance with $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, which could result in delisting if compliance is not regained within applicable cure periods; (6) the inability to satisfy or waive the closing conditions contemplated by the business combination agreement; (7) the occurrence of events, changes or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the business combination agreement, or that could result in disputes or litigation relating to the interpretation, enforceability or performance of the business combination agreement; (8) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company, DevvStream, Southern, EEME or their respective affiliates, which could be costly, time-consuming, divert management attention and adversely affect liquidity or financial condition; (9) uncertainty with respect to the scope, timing or completion of due diligence by any party and each party’s satisfaction therewith; (10) uncertainty regarding valuations, capital structure, financing arrangements, equity ownership, or the allocation of economic interests contemplated by the business combination agreement, including the risk that, in the event the proposed transaction closes, the parties may never achieve their aim of creating a $3.0 billion combined enterprise (as of the date hereof this statement only represents an objective that the parties intend to achieve on a future date and such objective has not in the past and may never in the future be achieved); (11) changes to the structure, timing or terms of any proposed transaction that may be required or deemed appropriate as a result of applicable laws, regulations, accounting considerations, stock exchange requirements or regulatory guidance; (12) the risk that required regulatory, governmental, stock exchange or shareholder approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to conditions that could adversely affect the parties or the expected benefits of any contemplated transaction; (13) the risk that the announcement of the business combination agreement or the pursuit of the contemplated transactions disrupts current plans, operations or relationships of the Company , Devvstream or Southern; (14) the risk that anticipated benefits of any contemplated transaction are not realized due to competition, execution challenges, market conditions, or the inability to grow and manage operations profitably; (15) costs, expenses and management distraction associated with the potential litigation and any contemplated transactions; (16) changes in applicable laws, regulations or enforcement priorities, including extensive regulation and compliance obligations applicable to the parties’ businesses; and (17) other economic, business, competitive, operational or financial factors beyond management’s control, including those set forth in (i) the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the final proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Business Combination filed with the SEC on February 6, 2025, this Press Release and other filings the Company made or will make with the SEC in the future and (ii) DevvStream’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on November 6, 2025, and subsequent reports filed with SEC and Canadian securities regulatory authorities available on DevvStream’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

The consummation of the proposed transaction remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of applicable closing conditions, and the business combination agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms. There can be no assurance that the proposed transaction will be consummated on the terms described herein or at all. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof and are not guarantees of future performance or outcomes.

 

Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current report on Form 8-K. Neither the Company, DevvStream, Southern or EEME undertakes any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or developments, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
