CUPERTINO, Calif., Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aemetis, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMTX), a renewable natural gas and renewable fuels company focused on low and negative carbon intensity products that lower fuel costs and reduce emissions, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

“Revenues of $59.2 million during the third quarter of 2025 are an increase of $7 million from the prior quarter, reflecting continued execution across our California Ethanol and Dairy Renewable Natural Gas segments, and fulfillment of new India Oil Marketing Companies orders,” said Todd Waltz, Chief Financial Officer of Aemetis. “We are pleased with third-quarter revenues for biogas that fully monetize the seven newly approved CARB RNG pathways.”

“The MVR system will positively improve the economics of our fuel ethanol business, and is expected to add $32 million to annual cash flow from operations,” said Eric McAfee, Chairman and CEO of Aemetis. “We have signed $57 million of new equipment purchase and installation contracts for the MVR and dairy RNG projects this year on favorable terms and without current shareholder dilution. After the September 2025 completion of the multi-dairy biogas digester, we are now planning to sell $20 million of Section 45Z and Section 48 tax credits.”

Today, Aemetis will host an earnings review call at 11:00 a.m. Pacific time (PT).

Our Dairy Natural Gas segment produced 114,000 MMBtu from twelve operating dairy digesters and reported $4 million of revenue. Our India Biodiesel business recognized $14.5 million of revenue primarily from the new allocation that converted into sales to the India Oil Marketing Companies during the third quarter of 2025.

Gross loss for the third quarter of 2025 was $58 thousand compared to a $3.9 million gross profit during the third quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

We have provided non-GAAP measures as a supplement to financial results based on GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in the accompanying supplemental data. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) plus (to the extent deducted in calculating such net income) interest and amortization expense, income tax expense or benefit, accretion expense, depreciation expense, loss on asset disposal, gain on debt extinguishment and share-based compensation expense.

Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income/(loss), operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is a useful performance measure that is widely used within the industry in which we operate. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA for reviewing financial results and for budgeting and planning purposes. EBITDA measures are not calculated in the same manner by all companies and, accordingly, may not be an appropriate measure for comparison.
