    Specialty Material Margin ($/BBL)

    • Beyond broader industry waterborne crude supply disruptions, ~10% of global base oil supply remains offline or stranded in the Middle East.

    • Industry has rapidly increased prices to offset crude cost increase; Calumet has executed over 20 price increases across product lines

  • Benefitted by an integrated operation

    • Fully integrated operation captures full margin of crude to specialty products, including the embedded value of diesel fuel or VGO

      Montana Renewables Overview

      10

      • History:

        • 2022: First sales

        • 2023: Expansion provides renewable hydrogen and first SAF production

        • 2024: Full scale operation-largest SAF producer in Western Hemisphere

        • 2025: Receive first Federal loan disbursement from Trump administration and delivered industry-leading financials during worst market on record

        • 2026: Expanding SAF capability to 120-150MM gallons per year



MONTANA RENEWABLES: AN ESTABLISHED RENEWABLE FUELS GROWTH LEADER
  • 12,000 bpd renewable production, increasing to 13,000 bpd beginning in Q2'26

  • SAF production increasing to 120-150mm gpy with MaxSAF® 150 expansion (beginning in Q2'26), up from 30mm today

MONTANA RENEWABLES - HISTORIC RVO FINALIZED MARCH 2026

2025: 4.5B gal

Biomass Based Diesel Supply Stack

202C: C.7B gal



  • SET2 RVO translates to 6.7B gallons biomass-based diesel demand

    • Rapidly restored historical industry index margin of $2+ per gallon

    • Leaves ~0.5B gallon per year shortfall at 85% utilization

      • RIN bank depletion; imports; above-plan industry utilization close the gap

  • MRL applauds Trump Administration and Zeldin EPA - industry is up for the challenge

    • U.S. agriculture will produce the feedstock

    • Healthy biobased diesel industry utilization slightly above 85% (and/or incremental imports)

    • Corrects 2023-25 SET1 RVO error, which didn't account for RD capacity growth and collapsed industry utilization to ~50% of capacity

    • Increases domestic energy supply and reduces fixed cost to produce per gallon

COMMENCING OPERATIONS POST MAXSAF ® 150 EXPANSION

MaxSAF® 150 Significantly Increases SAF Production

SAF Premium

  • Jet fuel demand growth is outpacing all other fuels

    • Iran conflict highlights traditional energy's inability to keep up with increased jet demand over time

      • USWC is import dependent-supply at risk today

      • EU much more so

  • MRL is increasing domestic SAF production

    • Turnaround and MaxSAF®150 project completed during March/April

    • Successfully commenced operations in May

  • Sales to new and existing SAF customers resumed

    • Diversified mix of physical SPK off-takers, blended-SAF customers, and Scope 1 and Scope 3 buyers

      (1) SAF registries include Avelia, SAFc, RSB, and IATA-CADO

      12



    • MRL has more SAF on registries than anyone else in the world (1)

  • SAF is recovered from renewable diesel, so RD sets a firm base price

  • SAF market is voluntary in North America, mandatory in EU, and heading toward mandatory in Asia

  • North American market has proven robust for Montana Renewables

  • SAF contracts in place at $1-$2 premium over RD

    Renewable Diesel Revenue Stack now $2+ per gallon

    SAF premium

Guidance of

$1-2/gallon SAF premium to RD

    • Premium takes various forms including emissions credits

      Wholesale diesel price



      MAXSAF® 150 VS INCREASING GLOBAL SHORT
  • Global SAF mandates still increasing with large penalties for non-compliance; supply capacity appears short

  • Montana Renewables turnaround completed; MaxSAF® 150 commenced operations in early May

    • SAF capacity will be 120-150mm gal/yr.

  • SAF contracting:

    • ~100mm gals of contracts approved and executed in anticipation; ramp up continues

    • Robust mix of physical SPK off-takers, blended SAF customers, and Scope 1 and Scope 3 buyers

    • Firm volume contracts continue to land at
