ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO) ("Gevo", the "Company", "we", "us" or "our"), a leading developer of cost-effective, renewable hydrocarbon fuels and chemicals that also can deliver significant carbon emission abatement, today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025. In a landmark milestone, the Company reported positive net income for the second quarter of 2025 and that it achieved the previously announced positive Adjusted EBITDA1 target for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of successful performance of our assets.
Net Income Attributable to Gevo Grew by $20 Million and Adjusted EBITDA1 Grew by $32 Million During the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025, Compared to Same Period Last Year
The key growth drivers were:
- Carbon Dioxide Removal ("CDR") credit sales have begun, immediately adding a new co-product and stream of revenue for the Company from a global marketplace.
- We anticipate growing CDR credit sales to $3-5 million by the end of this year, utilizing biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) removal capacity at our carbon capture and sequestration ("CCS") assets that is not already claimed in Low Carbon Fuel Standard ("LCFS") markets.
- We estimate long-term sales of this new co-product could exceed $30 million per year or more from the Gevo North Dakota ("GevoND") site, even before synthetic aviation fuel ("SAF") is produced and before we expand the use of our CCS site.
- The durable CDR market is global and expected to grow. According to third party research of this market2, the second quarter was the highest recorded volume of CDR credit sales recorded and has now accumulated over $10 billion in sales, reflecting nearly 40 million tons of CO2 removal.
- We are exploring growth options to bring third party CO2 volumes to our CCS site, where we have leases granting us rights to an estimated 1 million tons per year of pore space, which we believe is capable of sequestering carbon for over one thousand years. We would expect to market the CDR credits generated from additional carbon capture in the future.
- During the second quarter, we sold over $1 million worth of CDR credits.
- Clean Fuel Production Credit ("CFPC") sales from low-carbon ethanol with CCS and renewable natural gas ("RNG") have also begun, contributing approximately $21 million combined to our net income and Adjusted EBITDA1 during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
- We are leveraging our specialized capabilities to further reduce the carbon intensity of our low-carbon ethanol with CCS and RNG production facilities, and we expect to continue generating, collecting cash from customers of credits and applying it to our cost of goods sold ("COGS"), thereby causing a reduction in COGS. We treat this credit sale as a co-product credit. During the second quarter, we recognized the COGS benefit for the five months that we have owned GevoND. Going forward, we expect this credit to exceed $10 million per quarter through the end of 2029, when the credit expires, unless further extended by legislation.
- Cash from CFPC sales is expected to help us reinvest in site improvements to optimize GevoND and help us fund pre-construction development costs for our portfolio of SAF projects.
- Low-carbon fuels, including low-carbon ethanol, carbon capture and co-products, and RNG contributed to income from operations and Adjusted EBITDA1 from the sales of drop-in energy products and associated environmental attributes.
- Low-carbon ethanol and co-product operations contributed approximately $18 million to our income from operations and $7 million to our Adjusted EBITDA1 (for a total of $26 million including the impact of CFPC sales) during the six months ended June 30, 2025, excluding the month of January prior to closing our acquisition of these assets, from production of 28 million gallons of low-carbon ethanol, 93,000 tons of feed and 8 million pounds of distillers corn oil co-products.
- In the long term, we expect the primary drivers of this contribution to our income from operations and Adjusted EBITDA1 to be consistent operations (volume of low-carbon ethanol and co-products), as well as prevailing market prices of corn and ethanol, which we economically hedge through commodity-based derivative transactions to manage our exposure to commodity price fluctuations.
- We believe this segment will continue to generate durable cash flow due to its competitive advantages, including:
- Our wholly owned, onsite CCS currently provides our low-carbon ethanol with an industry-leading carbon intensity score, giving us an advantage when selling to LCFS markets.
- We currently produce approximately 2 million gallons per year of corn fiber ethanol, which qualifies that portion of volume for a cellulosic D3 RIN and a near zero carbon intensity on that volume.
- Low-carbon ethanol and co-product operations contributed approximately $18 million to our income from operations and $7 million to our Adjusted EBITDA1 (for a total of $26 million including the impact of CFPC sales) during the six months ended June 30, 2025, excluding the month of January prior to closing our acquisition of these assets, from production of 28 million gallons of low-carbon ethanol, 93,000 tons of feed and 8 million pounds of distillers corn oil co-products.
- Gevo's RNG facility ("GevoRNG") contributed approximately $2 million to our income from operations and $3 million to Adjusted EBITDA1 (or a total of $5 million including CFPC sales) during the six months ended June 30, 2025, from approximately 172 thousand MMBtu of RNG production.
Other Recent Transactions:
In May, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our subsidiary Agri-Energy, LLC to A.E. Innovation, LLC ("A.E.") for $7 million. The transaction includes Agri's 18-million-gallon-per-year ethanol-production facility located in Luverne, Minnesota and is expected to close by the end of 2025, subject to the procurement of financing by A.E. and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Following the sale, we will retain the ownership of certain equipment at the facility, including isobutanol fermentation capacity and some of the vacant land.
Additionally, after the second quarter, we closed on a refinancing in July related to GevoRNG, resulting in the release of approximately $30 million of restricted cash on our balance sheet after reserves and transaction costs.
Our Renewable Jet Fuel Platform Positions Gevo For Long-Term, Reproducible Growth.
- The Market Opportunity: U.S. jet fuel consumption is expected to grow by more than 2 billion gallons per year in the next decade according to data from U.S. Energy Information Administration ("EIA")3. To meet this growing jet fuel demand and balance domestic ethanol supply, we believe dozens of ATJ SAF facilities need to be deployed in the next decade in the US alone, utilizing 3.5 billion gallons of ethanol and producing over 2 billion gallons of cash-cost-of-production competitive, domestic jet fuel, while attracting billions of dollars of investment to local, agricultural communities.
- Standardized Plant Designs: Given our extensive history and experience with SAF, and to continue our leadership role in this market, we have developed standardized plant designs, including ATJ-30 and ATJ-60, to convert low-carbon ethanol to SAF. We believe GevoND provides an attractive potential location for ATJ-30, due to our hundreds of acres of undeveloped land, our existing CCS, and our production of low-cost, low-CI ethanol. For the ATJ-60 facility, we remain engaged with the Department of Energy's Loan Program Office on the path to closing the $1.63 billion loan guarantee to construct our facility in South Dakota and are matching our rate of development spend with this financing timeline.
- Long-Term Growth Strategy: As we demonstrate the business systems of ATJ-30 and ATJ-60, we expect further growth by developing our SAF platform and proprietary systems, using several models as needed, such as build-own-operate, joint venture, or licensing models. We recognize the enormous market opportunity for our plant designs, systems, and technology given the 180 existing brownfield ethanol locations in the United States, plus additional greenfield locations in the U.S. and globally.
- Extensive Intellectual Property Portfolio and Strategic Partnerships: To facilitate this growth, we have developed an extensive intellectual property portfolio around our SAF platform, Ethanol-to-Olefins ("ETO") technology and Verity carbon tracking software. Our portfolio includes over 300 patents, many of which were issued in the past few years during development of our ATJ-30 and ATJ-60 designs.

Management Comment
"This was a landmark quarter for us," commented Dr. Patrick Gruber, Gevo's Chief Executive Officer. "Our results are delivering on the targets we said we would achieve this year, even sooner than we expected. We said we would grow recurring Adjusted EBITDA, and it has begun—real cash flow, not one-time, not speculative. It's coming from running our GevoND operations efficiently, capturing carbon, and selling voluntary carbon credits as CDRs and CFPCs, in addition to ethanol, protein, corn oil, and RNG sales. All of this sets the stage for growth of SAF production, more liquid fuel production, more CDRs and more CFPCs."
"I really like these results regarding carbon sales. It's outstanding that companies are willing to step up and pay for what they believe in--carbon reduction. It's a new product; and for us, it's a co-product. Our fuel manufacturing systems are designed end-to-end to abate carbon. The result is that we can manufacture cost-competitive renewable liquid fuels, while abating carbon. What I like about our plans for growth even more is the potential for rural economic growth, the additional production of protein and feed for the food chain, and the potential increased profit for the farmers who supply us. It's good for America and for Gevo," continued Dr. Gruber.
Dr. Gruber added: "Building on this base of profitability and our extensive history with SAF, we are positioning ourselves for future reproducible growth. We're engineering ATJ-30, getting ready for ATJ-60, which needs to be financed, and setting ourselves up to develop this system in the U.S. and globally. The world is going to need more jet fuel. Collectively we believe the path ahead is to make jet fuel from renewables that abate the carbon footprint, which can compete on a cost basis with petro-jet fuel. We believe Gevo is positioned to meet the growing world demand for jet fuel with SAF. That's the vision. SAF done right is a cost-effective, scalable platform for fulfilling growing jet fuel demand, supporting agriculture for future generations, and building real American energy independence."
Leke Agiri, Gevo's Chief Financial Officer, commented: "We achieved positive net income and positive Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter, marking a major financial milestone and delivering on what we said we would do. This reflects the tangible value created by our GevoND and GevoRNG business segments, along with the monetization of the CFPC."
Mr. Agiri continued: "Our CFPC production is booked each quarter as a reduction in COGS as we produce and earn this credit. In addition, our sales of these credits have been backed by a tax insurance policy to mitigate residual risk associated with transferring these credits to buyers, which we view as low risk to begin with. In short, the growth we have reported this quarter represents a step-change for us."
Further Details on the Clean Fuel Production Credit
Also known as the Section 45Z tax credit, the CFPC was an extension of previous domestic biofuel incentives and took effect in 2025 as part of the Inflation Reduction Act. It was subsequently extended further in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, through 2029. Historically, similar credits called the Blenders Tax Credit have been extended by legislation to continue to promote U.S. domestic agriculture and biofuel production. As disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 7, 2025, we initially sold $22 million of these generated credits to a bank. This bank has a right of first offer (subject to certain conditions) to purchase substantially all of the remaining credits we expect to generate in 2025. In addition, the market demand for similar investment and production tax credits is approximately $30 billion4 according to third party research of this market, and we expect to sell the full amount of our capacity each year.
2025 Second Quarter Financial Results
Operating revenue. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, operating revenue increased by $38.2 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was primarily due to $37.2 million in revenue from GevoND, and $0.9 million in revenue from the sale of isooctane and others.
Cost of production. Cost of production increased $13.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to production costs related to GevoND operation, partially offset by $20.8 million 45Z tax credit booked, net of transaction costs. The 45Z tax credit, designed to incentivize the production of SAF, allowed us to lower overall production costs, while maintaining production levels.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $2.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to $4.8 million depreciation related to GevoND, partially offset by a $2.5 million reduction of depreciation related to assets fully depreciated at our Luverne, Minnesota facility.
Research and development expense. Research and development expenses decreased $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to decreased consulting expenses.
General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense decreased $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a $1.9 million decrease in stock-based compensation, partially offset by $1.2 million higher insurance costs, professional and consulting services and computer and software costs.
Project development costs. Project development costs are primarily related to our Alcohol-to-Jet Projects and Verity, which consist primarily of employee expenses, preliminary engineering costs, and technical consulting fees. Project development costs decreased $6.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a $3.3 million decrease in consulting and professional services fees, as well as the timing of $3.5 million reimbursement received from the USDA program during the second quarter.
Income (loss) from operations. The Company's loss from operations decreased by $29.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This improvement was primarily driven by increased revenues from GevoND, lower cost of production due to the recognition of the 45Z tax credit, a reduction in project development expenses, and decreased general and administrative expenses.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased $3.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to the debt used to acquire GevoND and a higher interest rate on our remarketed RNG bonds.
Interest and investment income. Interest and investment income decreased $2.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to the acquisition of GevoND and to fund our capital projects and operating costs, resulting in a lower balance of cash equivalent investments during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

___________________________
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, and the change in fair value of derivative instruments to GAAP loss from operations as well as monetized tax credits, if any. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP loss from operations is provided in the financial statement tables following this release. Adjusted EBITDA was referred to as "cash EBITDA" in previous periods. See Non-GAAP Financial Information below.
