HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Verde Clean Fuels, Inc. (“Verde� or “the Company�) (NASDAQ: VGAS) today reported results for the second quarter and first half of 2025.

“We continue to advance our plans to deploy our proprietary liquid fuels processing technology through the development of commercial production plants. To this end, we also continue to advance front-end engineering and design ("FEED") for the Permian Basin project, a proposed natural gas-to-gasoline plant to be jointly developed with Cottonmouth, a wholly owned subsidiary of Diamondback. The proposed plant would utilize our technology and associated natural gas from Diamondback’s operations. We also continue to identify and evaluate other potential opportunities to deploy our technology while remaining disciplined with our resources,� said Ernest Miller, CEO of Verde.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of $(2.5) million and diluted net loss per share of Class A common stock of $(0.07). For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of $(5.2) million and diluted loss per share of Class A common stock of $(0.15). The Company’s net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to ongoing general and administrative expenses.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $62.1 million and no debt. Also as of June 30, 2025, the Company had capitalized $2.2 million of FEED costs related to the proposed Permian Basin project, net of amounts reimbursable under the joint development agreement between Verde and Cottonmouth.

About Verde Clean Fuels, Inc.

Verde is a clean fuels company focused on the deployment of its innovative and proprietary liquid fuels processing technology through development of commercial production plants. Verde's synthesis gas ("syngas")-to-gasoline plus (STG+®) process converts syngas, derived from diverse feedstocks, into fully finished liquid fuels that require no additional refining. Verde is currently focused on opportunities to convert associated natural gas into gasoline, which is expected to provide a market for such natural gas with the added potential benefits of flare mitigation and production of gasoline with a lower carbon intensity than conventional gasoline.
