[10-Q] Montauk Renewables, Inc. Quarterly Earnings Report
Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. (PPBI) filed a Form 8-K announcing that it and Columbia Banking System, Inc. have now obtained all required regulatory approvals for their previously disclosed all-stock merger. Approvals were granted by the Federal Reserve Board on 5 Aug 2025, the FDIC on 4 Aug 2025, and earlier by the Oregon Division of Financial Regulation, clearing the way for both the holding-company merger and the subsidiary bank merger.
With regulatory risk removed, the parties expect to close the transaction on or about 31 Aug 2025, pending satisfaction of customary closing conditions contained in the 23 Apr 2025 Merger Agreement. The information is furnished under Item 7.01 (Reg FD) and Item 8.01 (Other Events); no financial statements or earnings metrics accompany the filing. A joint press release is included as Exhibit 99.1, and standard forward-looking-statement cautions are provided.
Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc. (PPBI) ha presentato un Modulo 8-K annunciando che essa e Columbia Banking System, Inc. hanno ottenuto tutte le approvazioni regolamentari necessarie per la loro fusione interamente in azioni precedentemente comunicata. Le approvazioni sono state concesse dalla Federal Reserve Board il 5 agosto 2025, dalla FDIC il 4 agosto 2025 e precedentemente dalla Divisione di Regolamentazione Finanziaria dell'Oregon, aprendo la strada sia alla fusione delle holding che a quella delle banche sussidiarie.
Con il rischio regolamentare rimosso, le parti prevedono di concludere la transazione intorno al 31 agosto 2025, subordinatamente al soddisfacimento delle condizioni di chiusura consuete contenute nell'Accordo di Fusione del 23 aprile 2025. Le informazioni sono fornite ai sensi dell'Articolo 7.01 (Reg FD) e dell'Articolo 8.01 (Altri Eventi); non sono inclusi bilanci o dati sugli utili nel deposito. Un comunicato stampa congiunto è incluso come Allegato 99.1, insieme alle consuete avvertenze sulle dichiarazioni previsionali.

Insights
TL;DR: All regulatory approvals secured, materially de-risking Pacific Premier’s sale to Columbia and clearing path to 31 Aug close.
Regulatory clearance is the principal gating item in bank mergers; obtaining Fed and FDIC approval eliminates the deal’s largest uncertainty. Because consideration is fixed in stock, PPBI shareholders now have line-of-sight to share exchange and implied premium, while Columbia can begin integration planning in earnest. Remaining conditions are largely mechanical (share listings, legal opinions). The update therefore has a positive, high-confidence impact on deal completion probability and timeline.
TL;DR: Filing is impactful; clears final hurdles but reminds of integration and dilution risks for Columbia.
For PPBI holders, upside is capped at exchange ratio already set; today’s news mainly tightens timing spreads. For Columbia investors, strategic rationale (larger West-Coast footprint, scale efficiencies) can be pursued sooner, yet integration risk, cost saves execution, and potential credit-quality divergence remain. Overall disclosure is net positive, but valuation effects will hinge on market views of post-merger earnings accretion.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements refer to our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, strategies, future performance, and business. Forward-looking statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “can have,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “strive,” “aim,” “could,” “design,” “due,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “intend,” “likely,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operational performance or other events. For example, all statements we make relating to our future results of operations, financial condition, expectations and plans, including those related to the Montauk Ag project in North Carolina, the Second Apex RNG Facility, the Blue Granite RNG Facility, the Bowerman RNG Facility, the delivery of biogenic carbon dioxide volumes to European Energy, the Emvolon collaboration and pilot project, the Tulsa facility project, the resolution of gas collection issues at the McCarty facility, the delays and cancellations of landfill host wellfield expansion projects, the mitigation of wellfield extraction environmental factors at the Rumpke and Apex facilities, how we may monetize RNG production, the GreenWave joint venture, the impacts of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and weather-related anomalies are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expect and, therefore, you should not unduly rely on such statements. The risks and uncertainties that could cause those actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include but are not limited to:

Table of Contents
We make many of our forward-looking statements based on our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results.
All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements as well as others made in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings and public communications. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made by us in the context of these risks and uncertainties. See the “Risk Factors” section in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC.
We caution you that the risks and uncertainties identified by us may not be all of the factors that are important to you. Furthermore, the forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

CONDENSED NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)
NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Operations and organization
Montauk Renewables’ Business
Montauk Renewables, Inc. (the “Company” or “Montauk Renewables”) is a renewable energy company specializing in the management, recovery and conversion of biogas into Renewable Natural Gas (“RNG”). The Company captures methane, preventing it from being released into the atmosphere, and converts it into either RNG or electrical power for the electrical grid (“Renewable Electricity”). The Company, headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has more than
Two of the Company’s key revenue drivers are sales of captured gas and sales of Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”) to fuel blenders. The Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) is an Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) administered federal law that requires transportation fuel to contain a minimum volume of renewable fuel. RNG derived from landfill methane, agricultural digesters and wastewater treatment facilities used as a vehicle fuel qualifies as a D3 (cellulosic biofuel with a
An additional program utilized by the Company is the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (“LCFS”). This is state specific and is designed to stimulate the use of low-carbon fuels. To the extent that RNG from the Company’s facilities is used as a transportation fuel in states that have adopted an LCFS program, it is eligible to receive an Environmental Attribute additional to the RIN value under the federal RFS.
Another key revenue driver is the sale of captured electricity and the associated environmental premiums related to renewable sales. The Company’s electric facilities are designed to conform to and monetize various state renewable portfolio standards requiring a percentage of the electricity produced in that state to come from a renewable resource. Such premiums are in the form of Renewable Energy Credits (“RECs”). The Company’s largest electric facility, located in California, receives revenue for the monetization of RECs as a part of a purchase power agreement.
Collectively, the Company benefits from federal and state government incentives in the United States, provided in the form of RINs, RECs, LCFS credits, tax credits and other incentives to end users, distributors, system integrators and manufacturers of renewable energy projects, that promote the use of renewable energy, as Environmental Attributes.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation

Table of Contents
Principles of Consolidation
The historical consolidated financial information included reflects the historical results of operations and financial position of Montauk USA through January 4, 2021 when MNK sold the membership interest of Montauk USA. The consolidated financial statements of Montauk USA became the Company’s historical financial statements following the IPO. Certain historical financial information included relates to periods prior to the Reorganization Transactions. On December 31, 2024, the Company re-assessed its determination of the primary beneficiary of the Variable Interest Entity ("VIE") MNK under the guidance in ASC 810, Consolidation. Refer to Note 17 – Related Parties for further information. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company utilizes the equity method of accounting for companies where its ownership is greater than 50% and significant but controlling interest does not exist.
Segment Reporting
The Company reports segment information in
The RNG segment represents the sale of gas sold at fixed-price contracts, counterparty share RNG volumes and applicable Environmental Attributes. This business unit represents the majority of the revenues generated by the Company. The Renewable Electricity Generation segment represents the sale of captured electricity and applicable Environmental Attributes. Corporate & Other relates to additional discrete financial information for the corporate function. It is primarily used as a shared service center for maintaining functions such as executive, accounting, treasury, legal, human resources, tax, environmental, engineering and other operations functions not otherwise allocated to a segment. As such, the corporate entity is not determined to be an operating segment but is discretely disclosed for purposes of reconciliation to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segments. The amendments in 2023-07 aim to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and subsequent interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company has adopted the standard and the enhanced expense disclosures can be found in Note 18.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public business entities to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items. The ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses recognized in continuing operations on an annual and interim basis and disclosure of a public business entity’s definition of selling expenses on an annual basis (or in interim reporting periods if the definition is changed). Public business entities are required to apply the guidance prospectively but are permitted to apply it retrospectively. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in 2023-09 aim to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, with early adoption permitted. Other than enhanced disclosures, the Company does not expect a material impact from the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – REVENUES FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
The majority of the Company’s revenues are comprised of renewable energy and related Environmental Attribute sales provided under short, medium and long term contracts with its customers. All revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s) under the contract (either implicit or explicit) by transferring the promised product or service to its customer either when (or as) its customer obtains control of the product or service. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. The Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the product’s observable market standalone selling price for each distinct product in the contract. The Company's typical invoicing terms are payment due within 30 days.
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring its products or services. As such, revenue is recorded net of allowances and customer discounts as well as net of transportation and gathering costs incurred by the customer following the transfer of control of the commodities sold. To the extent applicable, sales, value add and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis.
The Company’s performance obligations related to the sale of renewable energy (i.e. RNG and Renewable Electricity) are generally satisfied over time. Revenue related to the sale of renewable energy is generally recognized over time using an output based upon the product quantity delivered to the customer. This measure is used to best depict the Company’s performance to date under the terms of the contract. Revenue from products transferred to customers over time accounted for
The nature of the Company’s long-term contracts may give rise to several types of variable consideration, such as periodic price increases. This variable consideration is outside of the Company’s influence as the variable consideration is dictated by the market. Therefore, the variable consideration associated with the long-term contracts is considered fully constrained.
The Company’s performance obligations related to the sale of Environmental Attributes are generally satisfied at a point in time and were approximately
for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company recognizes Environmental Attribute revenue at the point in time in which the customer obtains control of the Environmental Attributes, which is generally when the title of the Environmental Attribute passes to the customer upon delivery. In limited cases, title does not transfer to the customer and revenue is not recognized until the customer has accepted the Environmental Attributes. The Company’s performance obligations under its counterparty sharing agreements are generally satisfied at a point in time when the earnings process is completed by the counterparty. Counterparty sharing arrangement revenues were approximately

The Company accounts for asset retirement obligations by recording the fair value of the liability in the period in which it is incurred. The Company estimates the fair value of asset retirement obligations by calculating the estimated present value of the cost to retire the asset. Factors that are considered when determining the present value of the cost to retire the asset include future inflation and discount rates, along with estimates date(s) of retiring the asset. Additionally, changes in legal, regulatory, environmental, and political environments can affect the fair value of the obligations.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under authoritative guidance are described as follows:
Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data, but significant to the fair value measurement.
A summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 instrument, attributable to asset retirement obligations, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is included in Note 9. The Company’s earn-out fair value liability at its Idaho agricultural digester site is determined by calculating the estimated present value of the future obligation. The present value is assessed quarterly and is based on macro-economic factors such as inflation and risk free US Treasury rates. Company specific estimates utilized include current and future interest rates, digester inlet gas flow and projected EBITDA. The undiscounted maximum payout of the earn-out ranges between

NOTE 18 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s reportable operating segments for the three and six months June 30, 2025 and 2024 are Renewable Natural Gas and Renewable Electricity Generation. Renewable Natural Gas includes the production of RNG. Renewable Electricity Generation includes generation of electricity at biogas-to-electricity plants. The Corporate entity is not determined to be an operating segment but is discretely disclosed for purposes of reconciliation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and though not denoted as an operating segment, significant expenses are noted within the segment. The following tables are consistent with the manner in which the Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), evaluates the performance of each segment and allocates the Company's resources. The CODM evaluates the performance of the segments based on segment operating income (loss). The Company maintains discrete financial information for its operating sites, which meet the definition of an operating segment, but are aggregated into reportable segments based on the type of commodity produced.

NOTE 19 – LEASES
The Company leases office space and other office equipment under operating lease arrangements (with initial terms greater than twelve months), expiring in various years through 2033. These leases have been entered into to better enable the Company to conduct business operations. Office space is leased to provide adequate workspace for all employees in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Houston, Texas. Landfill site operating leases include gas monitoring devices that serve to improve production efficiencies and alert technicians to issues and safety concerns occurring at the well head. Office space, office equipment and gas monitoring equipment agreements that exceed 12 months are accounted for as operating leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases.
The Company also leases safety equipment for the various operational sites in the United States. The term of certain equipment exceeds twelve months and is accordingly classified as a finance lease under ASC 842. The finance leases expire in 2026 and were entered into in order to provide a safe work environment for operational employees.
The Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease at inception based on whether that contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration for a period of time. For all operating and finance lease arrangements, the Company presents at the commencement date: a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.
The Company has elected, as a practical expedient, not to separate non-lease components from lease components, and instead account for each separate component as a single lease component for all lease arrangements, as lessee. In addition, the Company has elected, as a practical expedient, not to apply lease recognition requirements to short-term lease arrangements, generally those with a lease term of less than twelve months for all classes of underlying assets. In determination of the lease term, the Company considers the likelihood of lease renewal options and lease termination provisions.
The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, as the basis to calculate the present value of future lease payments, at lease commencement. The incremental borrowing rate represents the rate of interest a lessee would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the total lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term in a similar economic environment.
Supplemental information related to operating lease arrangements was as follows:

Overview
Montauk Renewables is a renewable energy company specializing in the recovery and processing of biogas from landfills and other non-fossil fuel sources for beneficial use as a replacement to fossil fuels. We develop, own, and operate RNG projects, using proven technologies that supply RNG into the transportation industry and use RNG to produce Renewable Electricity. We are one of the largest U.S. producers of RNG, having participated in the industry for over 30 years. We established our operating portfolio of 11 RNG and two Renewable Electricity projects through self-development, partnerships, and acquisitions that span seven states.
Biogas is produced by microbes as they break down organic matter in the absence of oxygen (during a process called anaerobic digestion). Our two current sources of commercial scale biogas are LFG or ADG. We typically secure our biogas feedstock through long-term fuel supply agreements and property lease agreements with biogas site hosts. Once we secure long-term fuel supply rights, we design, build, own, and operate facilities that convert the biogas into RNG or use the processed biogas to produce Renewable Electricity. We sell the RNG and Renewable Electricity through a variety of term length agreements. Because we are capturing waste methane and making use of a renewable source of energy, our RNG and Renewable Electricity generate valuable Environmental Attributes, which we are able to monetize under federal and state renewable initiatives.
Our current operating projects produce either RNG or Renewable Electricity by processing biogas from landfill sites or agricultural waste from livestock farms. We view agricultural waste from livestock farms as a significant opportunity for us to expand our RNG business, and we continue to evaluate other agricultural feedstock opportunities. We believe that our business model and technology are highly scalable given availability of biogas from agriculturally derived sources, which will allow us to continue to grow through prudent development and complimentary acquisitions.
Recent Developments
RINs Generated but Unsold
Our profitability is highly dependent on the market price of Environmental Attributes, including the market price for RINs. As we self-market a significant portion of our RINs, a decision not to commit to transfer available RINs during a period will impact our revenue and operating profit. The impact of EPA actions associated with implementation of BRRR K2 separation and the extension of the 2024 RIN compliance period has temporarily impacted the commitment timing of the Company. We had approximately 3,009 RINs generated but unseparated at June 30, 2025 which reduced the amount of RINs available for sale as of June 30, 2025. We expect this timing between RINs generated but unseparated and RINs available for sale to only impact 2025 which is the year BRRR became effective. We had approximately 108 RINs in inventory from 2025 RNG production as of June 30, 2025. These RINs were transferred in July under a commitment entered into in June 2025 at a price of $2.42. The average D3 RIN index price for the second quarter of 2025 was approximately $2.36. The following table summarizes select historical data related to RINs generated, RINs sold, and RINs generated but unsold. As we self-market a significant portion of our RINs and as the RFS is based on annual compliance, any strategic decision to not monetize available RINs in a quarter could impact the timing of operating revenues recognized during a fiscal year. AG˹ٷized prices for Environmental Attributes monetized in a year may not correspond directly to index prices due to the forward selling of commitments. The timing of RIN transfers can vary year over year and by period within a year and is contingent on various factors including, but not limited to: (a) the Company’s expectations on RIN index price, (b) operational needs of the Company, (c) obligated parties purchase needs, or (d) the type of customer among other matters.

Second Apex RNG Facility
In June 2025, we successfully completed the construction and commissioning of a second RNG processing facility at the Apex landfill. The construction of a second facility under our existing fuel supply agreement was triggered by biogas feedstock volumes exceeding production capabilities discussions with the landfill host, and the host's waste intake forecasted projections. As the landfill host increases waste intake, we believe the additional 2,100 MMBtu per day of production capacity will enable us to process the forecasted increase in biogas feedstock volumes. We continue to expect there will be a period where we have excess availability capacity after the second facility is commissioned while the landfill host increases their waste intake. We continue to collaborate with the landfill host to mitigate impacts from wellfield extraction factors which could impact capacity utilization.
Blue Granite RNG Project
In the first quarter of 2025, we received notice from the utility that it will no longer accept RNG into its distribution system, which was in opposition of the letter of intent that was issued when we were awarded the gas rights to the site. As a result, we impaired the capital associated with the early design of RNG equipment. We continue to review various alternatives related to interconnection opportunities as part of our considerations for offtake options with the understanding those alternatives may differ from initial development project assumptions, including physical and virtual and fixed interconnections. We are also reviewing alternatives for this site around producing energy other than RNG. We have paused further capital expenditures related to this site while we consider all alternatives and continue discussions with the landfill host.
Bowerman RNG Project
In 2023, we announced a planned development of a renewable natural gas landfill project in Irvine, CA at the Frank R. Bowerman Landfill to process the large and growing volumes of biogas in excess of the existing capacity of the REG facility. We expect facility commissioning in 2027 and expect the capital investment to range between $85,000 - $95,000. As part of the agreement to develop the RNG plant, we agreed to work with the landfill host on the landfill's management of its wellfield and flare facility permit requirements and this work remains ongoing. The project is anticipated to have production nameplate capacity of approximately 3,600 MMBtu per day, assuming currently forecasted biogas feedstock volumes projected to be available from the host landfill at the time of commissioning. We continue to incur capital expenditures for this project.

Carbon Dioxide Beneficial Use Opportunity
In 2024, we signed a contract for the delivery of 140 tons per year of biogenic carbon dioxide (“CO2”). We intend to capture, clean and liquefy CO2 at select Texas facilities, at which point it will be transported to EE North America (“EENA”), a Texas-based e-methanol facility. The delivery term is expected to last at least 15 years with first delivery expected to begin in 2027. During the period prior to commissioning, we have been recognizing an exclusivity fee related to the minimum tons of CO2. The annual price per ton under the contract is adjusted annually by the U.S. consumer price index. The agreement with EENA includes a 50% sharing component of any available tax attributes generated by us under code section 45Q, Carbon dioxide sequestration credit, in the Inflation Reduction Act, as applicable. There are other revenue sharing components under the agreement to the extent we are able to produce CO2 prior to EENA accepting delivery. Excluding any estimate of tax attributes and including a U.S. consumer price index range between 2.5 – 3.0% annually, we estimate that the total revenues under this 15 year term to annually provide a minimum of 140 tons of CO2 will range between $170,000 – $201,000 in total. We have completed the initial site surveys related to location of the CO2 processing equipment, evaluated equipment suppliers, and started engineering design. We continue to target a commissioning start in 2027 and began incurring capital expenditures for long lead items and design engineering in the second quarter of 2025.
Tulsa REG Conversion to RNG
In 2025, we announced the conversion of our Tulsa, Oklahoma Renewable Electric Generation facility to RNG project. The project will offer a variable inlet capacity providing production capacity of approximately 1,500 MMBtu per day and designed to beneficially process all of the available inlet gas feedstock from its landfill host. We expect to target a commissioning start in 2027 and began incurring capital expenditures for long lead items in the second quarter of 2025.
Montauk Ag Renewables Acquisition
In 2021, through a wholly-owned subsidiary Montauk Ag Renewables, we completed an asset purchase related to developing technology and a centralized processing location to recover residual natural resources from the waste streams of modern agriculture and to refine and recycle such waste products through proprietary and other processes in order to produce high quality renewable natural gas and recapture nitrogen, and micronutrient organic fertilizer alternatives (the “Montauk Ag Renewables Acquisition”).
With the change in REC generation passed by the state of North Carolina in 2024, we are in various other negotiations with other utility users to provide swine RECs from our expected first phase production of MWh. We expect our annual REC capacity to be approximately 120 RECs, of which the Duke REC agreement is for 47 RECs. In addition to our Duke REC agreement, in July 2025, we executed a power purchase agreement (“PPA”) for the expected power to be produced from the first phase of electric production. The term of this PPA begins once we commission the facility and is for 10 years covering 100% of the electricity produced. The PPA price is based on set tariffs and considers various impacts including but not limited to, demand, season and time of day, and we believe the average price considering these factors of $48/MWh is in line with various Southeast U.S. power markets ranging from $40 - $60/MWh.
We continue to optimize the collection and transportation of swine feedstock from the collection farms to the centralized process location, including the removal of low energy content liquid waste. Such efforts include the pelletization of collected waste, and the incorporation of additional upstream processes using screw-press and centrifuge technologies.Our feedstock collection and transportation optimization efforts are expected to have an impact on both the number of farms serviced as well as the associated equipment and operating costs.
Given this ongoing optimization endeavor, we are increasing the range of capital investment required for the first phase to $180,000 - $220,000. This revised estimate of the total project, to the extent impacting 2025, is included in our 2025 development capital expenditures range.
We continue to develop the opportunities with Montauk Ag Renewables and can give no assurances that our plans related to this acquisition will meet our expectations. Utility interconnection, both inbound to and outbound from our centralized Turkey, NC processing facility is dependent on factors outside of our control. Regulatory development and offtake negotiations could delay our ability to fully optimize or meet the timing expectations related to revenue producing activities. Our current construction timeline and costs are subject to delays or costs increases, respectively. We continue to design and plan for the development of the Turkey, NC facility to be used for commercial production. We expect the Magnolia, NC location to be used for various feedstock processing needs. Based on our current development timeline expectations, we expect to commence significant revenue generating activities in 2026. We intend to contract with additional farms to secure feedstock sources for future production processes. We expect the Montauk Ag Renewables project to generate tax attributes once placed into service consisting of a mix of investment tax, production tax, or accelerated depreciation. We are reviewing the Tax Reconciliation Act passed in July 2025 to determine what, if any, impacts there are to these expectations.
Waste-stream Biogas Recovery
33
Table of Contents
In 2024, we announced a collaboration with Emvolon to transform methane emissions from waste stream biogas into high-value carbon negative fuel. The initial pilot project at our Atascocita facility in Houston, TX has exceeded its anticipated results. Following a successful field demonstration project, together with Emvolon, we plan to deploy a portfolio of biogas-based sites with an aggregate annual production capacity of up to 50 metric tons of green methanol by 2030. We do not expect short term financial benefits from this joint development venture nor a disruption to our operations.
GreenWave Joint Venture
In the first quarter of 2025, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Pesta Energy, LLC, entered into an agreement with Pioneer Renewables Energy Marketing, LLC to form a joint venture, GreenWave Energy Partners, LLC (“Greenwave”). The primary goal of the joint venture is to help address the limited capacity of RNG utilization for transportation by offering third party RNG volumes access to exclusive unique and proprietary transportation pathways. We expect to act as the RIN separator for the joint venture and expect to receive separated RINs as distributions from the joint venture. Our capital investment in the joint venture is estimated to be up to approximately $4,500 subject to various and certain requirements as defined in the underlying agreements.
Income Tax and Tax Attributes
On July 4, 2025, the Tax Reconciliation Act was signed into law. The legislation includes significant tax and spending policies, extends or enhances various components of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and made various changes to tax credits included in the Inflation Reduction Act. Refer to Note 14 – Income Taxes for more information on our review of the Tax Reconciliation Act.
Included within our 2025 second quarter tax provision, we recorded approximately $826 in tax benefits related to IRC code section 48 investment tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act for certain qualifying property resulting from our 2024 Pico digestion expansion project. We recorded this tax benefit during the 2025 second quarter but have been working through the tax benefit calculation since the project was placed into service and as we assessed the IRS rulemaking. Our project study was completed during the second quarter of 2025 sufficient for us to record the benefit.
Based on our Pico digestion expansion project experience, for other large and qualifying projects we believe that 50 – 75% of project capital will qualify for IRC code section 48 investment tax credits and, depending on a variety of factors for projects started within various safe harbor guidelines, the tax benefits could be up to 30%. For qualifying projects which do not meet the various safe harbor guidelines, we expect the tax benefits to range between 6 – 12% for qualifying assets. Having placed our Second Apex RNG Facility into service in June 2025, we expect to generate tax attribute benefits in our 2025 tax year and expect to include these benefits in our annual tax provision calculations as of December 31, 2025. Based upon the midpoint of the Second Apex RNG facility capital range of $35,000, approximately 50% of the project capital qualifying, and with safe harbor guidelines not being met, we currently estimate IRC code section 48 investment tax credits could range between $1,050 - $2,100.
As it relates to our previously announced capital expectations for our Montauk Ag Renewables development, we similarly estimate IRC code section 48 investment tax credits could range between $4,500 - $9,000. As we currently expect revenue producing activities to begin in 2026, we expect Montauk Ag Renewables tax attributes to be included in our annual 2026 tax provision calculations. However, we have not commenced any reviews for our Montauk Ag Renewables development.
We continue to review the impacts of the Tax Reconciliation Act on our expectations of IRC code section 48 investment tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act, but we do not currently expect to transfer, as applicable, any tax attributes generated. As our reviews on the Tax Reconciliation Act are ongoing, we provide no assurances that the timing and range of tax attributes will meet our expectations.
Key Trends
Market Trends Affecting the Renewable Fuel Market
We believe rising demand for RNG is attributable to a variety of factors, including growing public support for renewable energy, U.S. governmental actions to increase energy independence, environmental concerns increasing demand for natural gas-powered vehicles, job creation, and increasing investment in the renewable energy sector.
Key drivers for the long-term growth of RNG include the following factors:

Table of Contents
Factors Affecting Our Future Operating Results:
Conversion of Electricity Projects to RNG Projects:
We continue to evaluate opportunities to convert existing facilities from Renewable Electricity to RNG production. These opportunities tend to be most attractive for any merchant electricity facilities given the favorable economics for the sale of RNG plus RINs relative to the sale of market rate electricity plus RECs. This strategy has been an increasingly attractive avenue for growth since 2014 when RNG from landfills became eligible for D3 RINs. However, during the conversion of a project, there is a gap in production while the electricity project is offline until it commences operation as an RNG facility, which can adversely affect us. This timing effect may adversely affect our operating results as a result of our potential conversion of Renewable Electricity projects. Upon completion of a conversion, we expect that the increase in revenue upon commencement of RNG production will more than offset the loss of revenue from Renewable Electricity production. Historically, we have taken advantage of these opportunities on a gradual basis at our merchant electricity facilities, such as Atascocita and Coastal Plains.
Acquisition and Development Pipeline
The timing and extent of our development pipeline affects our operating results due to:
Regulatory, Environmental and Social Trends
Regulatory, environmental and social factors are key drivers that incentivize the development of RNG and Renewable Electricity projects and influence the economics of these projects. We are subject to the possibility of legislative and regulatory changes to certain incentives, such as RINs, RECs and GHG initiatives. On July 12, 2023, the EPA issued final rules in the Federal Register for the RFS volume requirements for 2023-2025. Final volumes for cellulosic biofuel were set at 838, 1,090 and 1,376 RINs for the three years 2023, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The final rule also included significant changes to the existing RFS program, referred to as BRRR, that will require the RNG industry to modify how all RINs are generated. On January 1, 2025, all RFS participants must comply with BRRR provisions. We have registered all of our facilities under the BRRR provisions and have obtained Q-RIN status for RIN generation starting January 1, 2025. Under the BRRR provisions, the EPA finalized a limitation that biogas from one facility has a single use under the RFS as proposed (i.e., biointermediate, RNG or CNG/LNG via biogas closed distribution system). The EPA clarified that this does not preclude non-RFS uses at same facility.
On June 13, 2025, the EPA released both the Partial Waiver of the 2024 Cellulosic Biofuel Volume Requirement (Final Rule) and RFS Standards for 2026 and 2027, Partial Waiver of 2025 Cellulosic Biofuel Volume Requirement, and Other Changes (Proposed Rule). The final 2024 cellulosic biofuel volume requirement was reduced from 1,090 to 1,010 million D3 RINs. This reduction was based on actual volumes of D3 RINs generated in 2024. In addition, the EPA is making Cellulosic Waiver Credits ("CWCs") available for 2024 as an additional compliance flexibility for obligated parties.
35
Table of Contents
In the EPA’s proposed rule released on June 13, 2025, the cellulosic biofuel volumes for 2025 were proposed to be reduced from 1,376 to 1,190 RINs and make CWCs available for 2025. The proposed cellulosic biofuel volume requirements for 2026 and 2027 are 1,300 and 1,360 D3 RINs, respectively. These volumes are less than the EPA had previously finalized for 2025 and are based on their belief that cellulosic RIN generation from biogas-derived CNG/LNG during 2026-2030 will be constrained by the total usage capacity of CNG/LNG as transportation fuel. These proposed rules are subject to comment periods prior to finalization.
In December 2023, CARB released the formal proposal for new LCFS rules. The proposed rules will increase the stringency of CI reduction targets from 20% to 30% in 2030 and 90% by 2045. This reduction would have the potential impact of reducing the number of net credits in the program. CARB approved these new rules in November 2024, however in February 2025, the California Office of Administrative Law disapproved the changes because the regulations were not written in a way that persons directly affected by them could easily understand. CARB believes this disapproval to be routine and indicated its intention to resubmit the rules, which it has until June 2025 to do. CARB submitted a third notice of proposed regulations for amendments on April 11, 2025. On July 1, 2025, CARB’s amended LCFS rules officially took effect setting the aggressive carbon intensity reduction targets listed above. The industry may see gradual increases in LCFS credit prices over the next year. The rules also phase out avoided methane crediting for dairy and swine manure pathways by 2040 for CNG usage and through 2045 for RNG used to produce hydrogen. The RNG deliverability/book and claim provisions for out-of-region projects are eliminated for all projects that break ground after 2030. These projects will be required to demonstrate physical deliverability requirements beginning in 2041. Changes to the LCFS program require annual verification of the CI score assigned to a project. Annual verification could significantly affect the profitability of a project, particularly in the case of a livestock farm project. In June 2025, California lawmakers introduced California Senate Bill SB-237, which includes a potential cap on LCFS credit prices of approximately $75/ton.
On March 15, 2025, the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025 was signed into law. In May 2025 we were informed that the law eliminated the United States Department of Agriculture Advanced Biofuel Payment Program. We received approximately $200 annually since 2021 under this program.
Factors Affecting Revenue
Our total operating revenues include renewable energy and related sales of Environmental Attributes. Renewable energy sales primarily consist of the sale of biogas, including LFG and ADG, which is either sold or converted to Renewable Electricity. Environmental Attributes are generated and monetized from the renewable energy.
The BRRR requires that all unseparated K3 RINs generated by the RNG producer on RNG volumes injected into the commercial pipeline distribution system only become valid for sale once they are separated with the support of dispensing statements by a registered dispenser or RIN separator. This process could result in delays to the RNG producer's receipt of the separated K2 RINs from the dispenser. This rule change could also result in a RNG producer's failure to generate K3 RINs for a given gas flow month if the registered biogas producer negligently fails to generate the necessary biogas tokens before the end of the subsequent gas flow month. We expect this initial year impact of the EPA BRRR rule will increase our RINs unsold at the end of 2025.
We report revenues from two operating segments: Renewable Natural Gas and Renewable Electricity Generation. Corporate relates to additional discrete financial information for the corporate function; primarily used as a shared service center for maintaining functions such as executive, accounting, treasury, legal, human resources, tax, environmental, engineering, and other operations functions not otherwise allocated to a segment. As such, the Corporate segment is not determined to be an operating segment but is discretely disclosed for purposes of reconciliation to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
36
Table of Contents
Our operating revenues are priced based on published index prices which can be influenced by factors outside our control, such as market impacts on commodity pricing and regulatory developments. With our royalty payments structured as a percentage of revenue, royalty payments fluctuate with changes in revenues. We place a primary focus on managing production volumes and operating and maintenance expenses as these factors are more controllable by us.
RNG Production
Our RNG production levels are subject to fluctuations based on numerous factors, including:
Disruptions to Production: Disruptions to waste placement operations at our active landfill sites, severe weather events, or failure or degradation of our or a landfill operator’s equipment or interconnection or transmission problems could result in a reduction of our RNG production. We strive to proactively address any issues that may arise through preventative maintenance, process improvement and flexible redeployment of equipment to maximize production and useful life.
37
Table of Contents
Pricing
Our Renewable Natural Gas and Renewable Electricity Generation segments’ revenues are primarily driven by the prices under our off-take agreements and PPAs and the amount of RNG and Renewable Electricity that we produce. We sell the RNG produced from our projects under a variety of short-term and medium-term agreements to counterparties, with contract terms varying from three years to five years. Our contracts with counterparties are typically structured to be based on varying natural gas price indices for the RNG produced. All of the Renewable Electricity produced at our biogas-to-electricity projects is sold under long-term contracts to creditworthy counterparties, typically under a fixed price arrangement with escalators.
The pricing of Environmental Attributes, which accounts for a substantial portion of our revenues, is subject to volatility based on a variety of factors, including regulatory and administrative actions and commodity pricing.
The sale of RINs, which is subject to market price fluctuations, accounts for a substantial portion of our revenues. We manage against the risk of these fluctuations through forward sales of RINs, although currently we only sell RINs in the calendar year they are generated. We have subsequently entered into commitments to transfer the majority of our RINs in inventory as of June 30, 2025. We believe the impacts of the EPA BRRR reform and the 2024 proposed partial waiver of the 2024 RVO have temporarily impacted 2025 RIN purchase activity of RFS obligated parties. AG˹ٷized prices for Environmental Attributes monetized in a year may not correspond directly to index prices due to the forward selling of commitments.
Factors Affecting Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses include royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses, project operating and maintenance expenses, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, net loss (gain) on sale of assets, impairment loss and transaction costs. Our operating expenses can be subject to inflationary cost increases that are largely out of our control.

Table of Contents
Key Operating Metrics
Total operating revenues reflect both sales of renewable energy and sales of related Environmental Attributes. As a result, our revenues are primarily affected by unit production of RNG and Renewable Electricity, production of Environmental Attributes, and the prices at which we monetize such production. Set forth below is an overview of these key metrics:

Revenues for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Total revenues in the second quarter of 2025 were $45,127, an increase of $1,789 (4.1%) compared to $43,338 in the second quarter of 2024. The increase is primarily related to timing of revenues recognized under a short-term fixed priced contract in the 2025 second quarter when compared to the amount of RINs available but unsold at June 30, 2024. Offsetting the increase was a decrease in realized RIN pricing of approximately 22.4% during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024 and a reduction in RINs available for sale resulting from the EPA BRRR reform.
Renewable Natural Gas Revenues
We produced 1,413 MMBtu of RNG during the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 31 MMBtu (2.2%) compared to 1,382 MMBtu produced in the second quarter of 2024. Our Rumpke facility produced 67 MMBtu more in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024 as a result of a previously disclosed reduced feedstock inlet and process equipment failures which occurred in the second quarter of 2024. Offsetting the increase was the fourth quarter of 2024 sale of our Southern facility which produced 22 MMBtu in the second quarter of 2024.
Revenues from the Renewable Natural Gas segment in the second quarter of 2025 were $40,829, an increase of $1,991 (5.1%) compared to $38,838 in the second quarter of 2024. Average commodity pricing for natural gas for the second quarter of 2025 was $3.44 per MMBtu, 82.0% higher than the second quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2025, we self-marketed 11,050 RINs, representing a 1,050 increase (10.5%) compared to 10,000 in the second quarter of 2024. Average pricing realized on RIN sales during the second quarter of 2025 was $2.42 as compared to $3.12 in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of 22.4%. Average D3 RIN index price for the second quarter of 2025 was $2.36 compared to $3.20 in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of approximately 26.1%. At June 30, 2025, we had approximately 309 MMBtu available for RIN generation, 3,009 RINs generated and unseparated, and 108 RINs generated and unsold. At June 30, 2024, we had approximately 357 MMBtu available for RIN generation and 4,707 RINs generated and unsold. There were no RINS generated and unseparated at June 30, 2024.
Renewable Electricity Generation Revenues
We produced approximately 42 MWh in Renewable Electricity in the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 3 MWh (6.7%) from 45 MWh in the second quarter of 2024. Our Bowerman facility produced approximately 2 MWh less in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. The decreased is primarily related to the timing of preventative engine maintenance that was completed in the second quarter of 2025.
Revenues from Renewable Electricity facilities in the second quarter of 2025 were $4,298, a decrease of $202 (4.5%) compared to $4,500 in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in our Bowerman facility production volumes.

Table of Contents
In the second quarter of 2025, 100.0% of Renewable Electricity Generation segment revenues were derived from the monetization of Renewable Electricity at fixed prices associated with underlying PPAs, as compared to 100.0% in the second quarter of 2024. This provides us with certainty of price resulting from our Renewable Electricity sites.
Expenses for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
General and Administrative Expenses
Total general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were $9,044, an increase of $307 (3.5%) compared to $8,737 for the second quarter of 2024. Employee related costs, including stock-based compensation costs were $6,099 in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $733 (13.7%) compared to $5,366 in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in non-cash stock-based compensation costs is related to a one-time acceleration of $1,550 in the second quarter of 2025 due to the termination of an employee which we do not anticipate to recur in the second half of 2025. This compares to unrecognized stock-based compensation costs of $4,900 that will be recognized over approximately 3.25 years.
Renewable Natural Gas Expenses
Operating and maintenance expenses for our RNG facilities in the second quarter of 2025 were $16,955, an increase of $3,052 (22.0%) as compared to $13,903 in the second quarter of 2024. Of the increase, we do not anticipate approximately $1,780 of non-linear discrete expenses will recur in the second half of 2025 as they relate primarily to annual preventative maintenance and gas processing maintenance. Our Apex facility operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $786 primarily related timing of gas processing preventative maintenance. Our McCarty facility operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $772 primarily related to the timing of maintenance related to gas processing equipment. Our Rumpke facility operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $759 primarily related to preventative maintenance media changes and wellfield operational enhancements. Our Atascocita facility operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $546 primarily related to the timing of maintenance related to gas processing equipment.
Royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses for our RNG facilities for the second quarter of 2025 were $8,669, an increase of $101 (1.2%) compared to $8,568 in the second quarter of 2024. We recorded an increase to our Pico facility earnout of approximately 26.3% during the second quarter of 2025. Royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses decreased as a percentage of RNG revenues to 21.2% for the second quarter of 2025 from 22.1% in the second quarter of 2024.
Renewable Electricity Expenses
Operating and maintenance expenses for our Renewable Electricity facilities in the second quarter of 2025 were $4,809, an increase of $92 (2.0%) compared to $4,717 in the second quarter of 2024. We do not anticipate approximately $1,399 of discrete expenses primarily associated with our Bowerman facility will recur in the second half of 2025 as they relate to non-linear annual preventative maintenance. The second quarter of 2025 increase was primarily driven by an increase in non-capitalizable costs at our Montauk Ag Renewables projects. Our Tulsa facility operating and maintenance expenses decreased approximately $188 primarily related to wellfield collection enhancements completed in the second quarter of 2024.
Royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses for our Renewable Electricity facilities for the second quarter of 2025 were $499, a decrease of $9 (1.8%) compared to $508 in the second quarter of 2024. Royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses increased as a percentage of Renewable Electricity revenues to 11.6% for the second quarter of 2025 from 11.3% in the second quarter of 2024.
Royalty Payments
Royalties, transportation, gathering, and production fuel expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were $9,168, an increase of $91 (1.0%) compared to $9,077 in the second quarter of 2024. We make royalty payments to our fuel supply site partners on the commodities we produce and the associated Environmental Attributes. These royalty payments are typically structured as a percentage of revenue subject to a cap, with fixed minimum payments when Environmental Attribute prices fall below a defined threshold. To the extent commodity and Environmental Attributes’ prices fluctuate, our royalty payments may fluctuate upon renewal or extension of a fuel supply agreement or in connection with new projects. Our fuel supply agreements are typically structured as 20-year contracts, providing long-term visibility into the margin impact of future royalty payments.

Table of Contents
Depreciation
Depreciation and amortization in the second quarter of 2025 was $7,029, an increase of $1,206 (20.7%) compared to $5,823 in the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the timing of wellfield and maintenance capital investments placed into service and our Second Apex RNG Facility project being placed into service.
Impairment loss
We calculated and recorded impairment losses of $377 in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $206 (120.5%) compared to $171 in the second quarter of 2024. The increase primarily relates to specifically identified assets deemed obsolete or non-operable.
Other Expenses
Other expenses in the second quarter of 2025 was $1,256, flat compared to $1,236 in the second quarter of 2024.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was calculated using an estimated effective tax rate which differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily related to the adjustment of Production Tax Credits, Investment Tax Credits as well as stock based compensation vesting.
The effective tax rate of (52)% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was lower than the rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 of (93.5)% primarily due to discrete events related to the vesting of restricted grants on stock compensation during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 pre-tax book loss.
Operating (Loss) Income for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Operating loss in the second quarter of 2025 was $2,355, a decrease of $3,223 (371.3%) compared to operating income of $868 in the second quarter of 2024. RNG operating income for the second quarter of 2025 was $9,228, a decrease of $2,487 (21.2%) compared to $11,715 in the second quarter of 2024. Renewable Electricity Generation operating loss for the second quarter of 2025 was $2,348, an increase of $379 (19.2%) compared to $1,969 for the second quarter of 2024.

Revenues for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Total revenues in the first six months of 2025 were $87,730, an increase of $5,605 (6.8%) compared to $82,125 in the first six months of 2024. Total RNG commodity revenues increased $10,820 in the first six months of 2025 as compared to the first six months of 2024. Offsetting this increase is a decrease of $8,996 in recognized RIN revenues. Our counterparty margin share revenues also increased $1,056 in the first six months of 2025 as compared to the first six months of 2024. Also offsetting the increase was a decrease in realized RIN pricing of approximately 23.9% during the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024.
Renewable Natural Gas Revenues
We produced 2,802 MMBtu of RNG during the first six months of 2025, an increase of 8 MMBtu (0.3%) over the 2,794 MMBtu produced in the first six months of 2024. Our Rumpke facility produced 106 MMBtu more in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 as a result of previously disclosed plant processing equipment failures that occurred in the first six months of 2024. Our Apex facility produced 61 MMBtu fewer in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 as a result of cold weather conditions impacting gas feedstock availability, wellfield extraction environmental factors, as well as plant processing equipment failures. Offsetting the increase was the fourth quarter of 2024 sale of our Southern facility which produced 45 MMBtu in the first six months of 2024.
Revenues from the Renewable Natural Gas segment in the first six months of 2025 were $79,280, an increase of $6,455 (8.9%) compared to $72,825 in the first six months of 2024. Average commodity pricing for natural gas for the first six months of 2025 was $3.55 per MMBtu, 71.5% higher than the first six months of 2024. During the first six months of 2025, we self-monetized 20,935 RINs, representing a 3,046 increase (17.0%) compared to 17,889 in the first six months of 2024. Average pricing realized on RIN sales during the first six months of 2025 was $2.42 as compared to $3.18 in the first six months of 2024, a decrease of 23.9%. This compares to the average D3 RIN index price for the first six months of 2025 of $2.39 as compared to $3.16 in the first six months of 2024, a decrease of approximately 24.4%. At June 30, 2025, we had approximately 309 MMBtu available for RIN generation, 3,009 RINs generated and unseparated, and 108 RINs generated and unsold. At June 30, 2024, we had approximately 357 MMBtu available for RIN generation and 4,707 RINs generated and unsold. There were no RINS generated and unseparated at June 30, 2024.
Renewable Electricity Generation Revenues
We produced approximately 88 MWh in Renewable Electricity in the first six months of 2025, a decrease of 11 MWh (11.1%) from 99 MWh in the first six months of 2024. Our Security facility produced approximately 6 fewer MWh in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 as a result of ceasing operations in connection with the first quarter of 2024 sale. Our Bowerman facility produced approximately 5 fewer MWh in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 primarily related to the planned preventative engine maintenance that was completed in the first six months of 2025.

Table of Contents
Revenues from Renewable Electricity facilities in the first six months of 2025 were $8,450, a decrease of $850 (9.1%) compared to $9,300 in the first six months of 2024. The decrease is primarily driven by the decrease in our Bowerman facility production volumes and the cessation of operation at our Security facility.
In the first six months of 2025, 100.0% of Renewable Electricity Generation segment revenues were derived from the monetization of Renewable Electricity at fixed prices associated with underlying PPAs, as compared to 100.0% in the first six months of 2024. This provides us with certainty of price resulting from our Renewable Electricity sites.
Expenses for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
General and Administrative Expenses
Total general and administrative expenses were $17,798 for the first six months of 2025, a decrease of $368 (2.0%) compared to $18,166 for the first six months of 2024. Our corporate insurance fees decreased approximately $407 (13.9%) in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024.
Renewable Natural Gas Expenses
Operating and maintenance expenses for our RNG facilities in the first six months of 2025 were $31,045, an increase of $5,002 (19.2%) as compared to $26,043 in the first six months of 2024. Our Apex facility operating maintenance expenses increased approximately $1,449 primarily related to the timing of maintenance related to gas processing equipment as well as a wellfield operational enhancement program. Our McCarty facility operating maintenance expenses increased approximately $1,080 primarily related to timing of maintenance related to gas processing equipment as well as a wellfield operational enhancement program. Our Rumpke facility operating maintenance expenses increased approximately $980 primarily related to a wellfield operational enhancement program. Our Atascocita facility operating maintenance expenses increased approximately $746 primarily due to gas processing equipment maintenance as well as a wellfield operational enhancement program. Our Raeger facility operating maintenance expenses increased approximately $453 primarily related to media change outs and disposal costs.
Royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses for our RNG facilities for the first six months of 2025 were $15,783, an increase of $1,218 (8.4%) compared to $14,565 in the first six months of 2024. We recorded an increase to our Pico facility earnout of approximately 10.6% during the first six months of 2025. Royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses decreased as a percentage of RNG revenues to 19.9% for the first six months of 2025 from 20.0% in the first six months of 2024.
Renewable Electricity Expenses
Operating and maintenance expenses for our Renewable Electricity facilities in the first six months of 2025 were $8,160, an increase of $1,151 (16.4%) compared to $7,009 in the first six months of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in non-capitalizable costs at our Montauk Ag Renewables projects.
Royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses for our Renewable Electricity facilities for the first six months of 2024 were $956, a decrease of $74 (7.2%) compared to $1,030 in the first six months of 2024. As a percentage of Renewable Electricity Generation segment revenues, royalties, transportation, gathering and production fuel expenses increased to 11.3% from 11.1%.
Royalty Payments
Royalties, transportation, gathering, and production fuel expenses in the first six months of 2025 were $16,739, an increase of $1,146 (7.3%) compared to $15,593 in the first six months of 2024. We make royalty payments to our fuel supply site partners on the commodities we produce and the associated Environmental Attributes. These royalty payments are typically structured as a percentage of revenue subject to a cap, with fixed minimum payments when Environmental Attribute prices fall below a defined threshold. To the extent commodity and Environmental Attributes’ prices fluctuate, our royalty payments may fluctuate upon renewal or extension of a fuel supply agreement or in connection with new projects. Our fuel supply agreements are typically structured as 20-year contracts, providing long-term visibility into the margin impact of future royalty payments.
Depreciation
Depreciation and amortization in the first six months of 2025 was $13,293, an increase of $2,036 (18.1%) compared to $11,257 in the first six months of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the timing of wellfield and maintenance capital investments placed into service and our Second Apex RNG Facility project being placed into service.

Impairment loss
We calculated and recorded impairment losses of $2,424 in the first six months of 2025, an increase of $1,725 (246.8%) compared to $699 in the first six months of 2024. The impairment losses in the first six months of 2025 primarily relate to a development project RNG interconnection for which the local utility is no longer accepting RNG into its distribution system. All associated costs related to the interconnection were impaired and specifically identified assets deemed obsolete or non-operable. The impairment losses in the first six months of 2024 primarily relate to the remaining book value of assets at the Security facility and various RNG equipment that was deemed obsolete for current operations.
Other Expenses
Other expenses in the first six months of 2025 was $2,446, a decrease of $1,105 (82.4%) compared to $1,341in the first six months of 2024. The decrease is primarily related to proceeds received from the sale of gas rights ahead of the fuel supply agreement expiration of our Security facility in the first six months of 2024.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was calculated using an estimated effective tax rate which differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the benefit from production tax credits.
The effective tax rate of (35.5)% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was lower than the rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of 39.9% primarily due to discrete events related to the vesting of restricted stock grants on stock compensation as compared to the year to date pre-tax book income. The prior year period benefit was related to the year to date pre-tax book loss.
Operating (Loss) Income for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Operating loss in the first six months of 2025 was $1,946, a decrease of $5,182 (160.1%) compared to an operating income of $3,236 in the first six months of 2024. RNG operating income for the first six months of 2025 was $19,597, a decrease of $3,699 (15.9%) compared to $23,296 in the first six months of 2024. Renewable Electricity Generation operating loss for the first six months of 2025 was $3,369, an increase of $1,777 (111.6%) compared to $1,592 for the first six months of 2024.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
The following table presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP financial measures, for each of the periods presented below. We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe the measures assist investors in analyzing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measurements of performance that management and the board of directors use in their financial and operational decision-making and in the determination of certain compensation programs. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental performance measures that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to net (loss) income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities or a measure of our liquidity or profitability.
The following table provides our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented, as well as a reconciliation to net loss, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
At June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents, net of restricted cash, was $29,133 and $42,285, respectively. We intend to fund development projects using cash flows from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We believe that we will have sufficient cash flows from operations and borrowing availability under our credit facility to meet our debt service obligations and anticipated required capital expenditures (including for projects under development) for the next 12 to 24 months. However, we are subject to business and operational risks that could adversely affect our cash flows and liquidity.
At June 30, 2025, we had debt before debt issuance costs of $70,000, compared to debt before debt issuance costs of $56,000 at December 31, 2024.
Our debt before issuance costs (in thousands) are as follows:

Amended Credit Agreement
On December 21, 2021, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment with Comerica and certain other financial institutions. The current credit agreement, which is secured by a lien on substantially all of our assets and assets of certain of our subsidiaries, provides for a five-year $80,000 term loan, a five-year $120,000 revolving credit facility, and a $75,000 accordion feature.
As of June 30, 2025, $50,000 was outstanding under the term loan and we had $20,000 of outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The term loan amortizes in quarterly installments of $3,000 through 2026, with a final payment of $32,000 in late 2026 with an interest rate of 5.70% and 6.01% at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
48
Table of Contents
The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary covenants applicable to us and certain of our subsidiaries, including financial covenants. The Amended Credit Agreement is subject to customary events of default, and contemplates that we would be in default if, for any fiscal quarter (x) the average monthly D3 RIN price (as determined in accordance with the Amended Credit Agreement) is less than $0.80 per RIN and (y) the consolidated EBITDA for such quarter is less than $6,000. Consolidated EBITDA is defined under the Amended Credit Agreement as net income plus (a) income tax expense, (b) interest expense, (c) depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense, (d) non-cash unrealized derivative expense and (e) any other extraordinary, unusual, or non-recurring adjustments to certain components of net income, as agreed upon by Comerica in certain circumstances.
Under the Amended Credit Agreement, we are required to maintain the following ratios:
As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the Amended Credit Agreement.
For additional information regarding the Amended Credit Agreement, see Note 13— Debt to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Capital Expenditures
We have historically funded our growth and capital expenditures with our working capital, cash flow from operations and debt financing. We expect our non-development 2025 capital expenditures to range between $14,000 and $17,000. Our 2025 non-development capital plans include annual preventative maintenance expenditures, annual wellfield expansion projects, and other specific facility improvements. Additionally, we estimate that our existing 2025 development capital expenditures will range between $90,000 and $120,000. The majority of our ongoing 2025 development capital expenditures are related to our ongoing development of Montauk Ag Renewables, the Bowerman RNG project, and the EENA CO2 project. To a lesser extent in 2025, the Tulsa RNG project and our Rumpke RNG relocation project will incur development capital expenditures. Our Amended Credit Agreement provides us with a $120,000 revolving credit facility, with a $75,000 accordion option, providing us with access to additional capital to implement our acquisition and development strategy. As we continue to explore strategic growth opportunities, we have not entered into nonbinding letters of intent for any opportunity, we provide no assurances that our plans related to any or all of these strategic opportunities will progress to definitive agreements. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and credit availability under our Amended Credit Agreement would allow us to pursue and close on our identified strategic growth opportunities in addition to the previously discussed non-development and development capital expenditures.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
Off-balance sheet arrangements comprise those arrangements that may potentially impact our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations, even though such arrangements are not recorded as liabilities under GAAP. Our off-balance sheet arrangements are limited to the outstanding letters of credit described below. Although these arrangements serve a variety of our business purposes, we are not dependent on them to maintain our liquidity and capital resources, and we are not aware of any circumstances that are reasonably likely to cause the off-balance sheet arrangements to have a material adverse effect on liquidity and capital resources.
We have contractual obligations involving asset retirement obligations. See Note 9 in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the asset retirement obligations.
We have contractual obligations under our debt agreement, including interest payments and principal repayments. See Note 13 in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the contractual commitments under our debt agreements, including the timing of principal repayments. During the first six months of 2025, we had $2,571 of off-balance sheet arrangements of outstanding letters of credit. These letters of credit reduce the borrowing capacity of our revolving credit facility under our Amended Credit Agreement. Certain of our contracts require these letters of credit to be issued to provide additional performance assurances. There have been no draw downs on these outstanding letters of credit. During the first six months of 2024, we did not have off-balance sheet arrangements other than outstanding letters of credit of $2,505.
We have contractual obligations involving operating leases. We lease office space and other office equipment under operating lease arrangements, expiring in various years through 2033. See Note 19 in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information related to the lease obligations.
We have other contractual obligations associated with our fuel supply agreements. The expiration of these agreements range between 2-18 years. The minimum royalty and capital obligation associated with these agreements range from $8 to $1,695.
In April 2025, the Board of Directors of Montauk Renewables Inc. authorized a share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”), pursuant to which we may, from time to time, purchase currently outstanding shares of its common stock for an aggregate repurchase price not to exceed $5,000. The timing, number and purchase price of shares repurchased under the program, if any, will be determined by a Repurchase Committee, comprised of Board members and management. The Share Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date and there are no assurances that purchases will take place under the program.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP and require our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such estimates may change if the underlying conditions or assumptions change.
Revenue Recognition
Our revenues are comprised of renewable energy and the related Environmental Attribute sales provided under a variety of short, medium and long term agreements with our customers. All revenue is recognized when we satisfy our performance obligation(s) under the contract (either implicit or explicit) by transferring the promised product to the customer either when (or as) the customer obtains control of the product. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. We allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the product’s observable market standalone selling price for each distinct product in the contract.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring our products. As such, revenue is recorded net of allowances and customer discounts as well as net of transportation and gathering costs incurred. To the extent applicable, sales, value add, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis.
The nature of the Company’s contracts may give rise to several types of variable consideration, such as periodic price increases. This variable consideration is outside of the Company’s influence as the variable consideration is dictated by the market. Therefore, the variable consideration associated with the long-term contracts is considered fully constrained.
RINs
We generate D3 RINs through our production and sale of RNG used for transportation purposes as prescribed under the RFS program. Our operating costs are associated with the production of RNG. The RINs are government incentives that are generated through our renewable operating projects and not a result of physical attributes of our RNG production. The RINs that we generate are able to be separated and sold as credits independently from the energy produced. Therefore, no cost is allocated to the RIN when it is generated. Revenue is recognized on these Environmental Attributes when there is an agreement in place to monetize the credits at an agreed upon price with a customer and transfer of control has occurred. We enter into forward commitments to transfer RINs. These forward commitments are based on D3 RIN index prices at the time of the commitment. AG˹ٷized prices for RINs monetized in a year may not correspond directly to index prices due to the forward selling of commitments.
RECs
We generate RECs through our production and conversion of landfill methane into Renewable Electricity in various states, including California, Oklahoma, and Texas. These states have various laws requiring utilities to purchase a portion of their energy from renewable resources. Our operating costs are associated with the production of Renewable Electricity. The RECs are generated as an output of our renewable operating projects. The RECs that we generate are able to be separated and sold independently from the electricity produced. Therefore, no cost is allocated to the REC when it is generated. Revenue is recognized on these Environmental Attributes when there is an agreement in place to monetize the credits at an agreed upon price with a customer and transfer of control has occurred.
Income Taxes
We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and local jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply.
Our net deferred tax asset position is a result of fixed assets, intangibles, and tax credit carryforwards. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible, prior to the expiration of the tax attributes. The evaluation of deferred tax assets requires judgment in assessing the likely future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns and forecasting future profitability by tax jurisdiction.
We evaluate our deferred tax assets at reporting periods on a jurisdictional basis to determine whether adjustments to the valuation allowance are appropriate considering changes in facts or circumstances. As of each reporting date, management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, when determining the future realization of our deferred tax assets. We account for uncertain tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors that include, but are not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position.
Intangible Assets
Separately identifiable intangible assets are recorded at their fair values upon acquisition. We account for intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other. Finite-lived intangible assets include interconnections, customer contracts, and trade names and trademarks. The interconnection intangible asset is the exclusive right to utilize an interconnection line between the operating project and a utility substation to transmit produced electricity. Included in that right is full maintenance provided on this line by the utility. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. We evaluate our finite-lived intangible assets for impairment as events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be fully recoverable. Events that could result in an impairment include, among others, a significant decrease in the market price or the decision to close a site.

Table of Contents
If finite-lived or indefinite-lived intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The fair value is determined based on the present value of expected future cash flows. We use our best estimates in making these evaluations, however, actual future pricing, operating costs and discount rates could vary from the assumptions used in our estimates and the impact of such variations could be material.
Our assessment of the recoverability of finite-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets is determined by performing monitoring assessment of the future cash flows associated with the underlying gas rights agreements. The cash flows estimates are performed at the operating unit level and based on the average remaining length of the gas rights agreements. Based on our analysis, we concluded the cash flows generated to be well in excess of the carrying amounts. Changes in market conditions related to the various price indexes used in estimating these cash flows could adversely affect these estimates.
Finite-Lived Asset Impairment
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment and intangible assets with finite useful lives are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. Such estimates are based on certain assumptions, which are subject to uncertainty and may materially differ from actual results, including considering project specific assumptions for long-term credit prices, escalated future project operating costs and expected site operations. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined by considering (i) internally developed discounted cash flows for the asset group, (ii) third-party valuations, and/or (iii) information available regarding the current market value for such assets. We use our best estimates in making these evaluations and consider various factors, including future pricing and operating costs. However, actual future market prices and project costs could vary from the assumptions used in our estimates and the impact of such variations could be material. We identified discrete events and recorded an impairment of $377 and $171 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively and $2,424 and $699 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. See Note 3 in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information related to asset impairments.
Emerging Growth Company
We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, which ends after 2025. The JOBS Act allows emerging growth companies to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We intend to utilize these transition periods, which may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the transition periods afforded under the JOBS Act.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable level of assurance.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In March 2025, we implemented a new Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") system. In conjunction with the ERP implementation, we updated the design of key internal controls over financial reporting.
Except as discussed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
