Q1 2026 earnings summary8 May, 2026

Executive summary

  • Q1 2026 was strategically pivotal, with strong margin environments in both traditional and renewable energy markets, despite operational downtime at Shreveport and planned expansion work in Montana limiting full margin capture.

  • Adjusted EBITDA with Tax Attributes was $50.1 million, down from $55 million in Q1 2025, impacted by Shreveport production loss but offset by specialty price increases and record TruFuel sales.

  • Montana Renewables completed the MaxSAF 150 expansion and turnaround, resuming operations in May and positioning for increased SAF production.

  • EPA's Set 2 RVO announcement in March 2026 reset the outlook for the biofuels industry, supporting strong, stable margins and incentivizing industry utilization growth.

  • Reported a net loss of $317.0 million for Q1 2026, primarily due to non-cash RINs and mark-to-market items.

Financial highlights

  • Generated $50.1 million of adjusted EBITDA in Q1 2026, down from $55 million in Q1 2025, primarily due to operational issues at Shreveport.

  • Specialty Products and Solutions segment delivered $44.3 million of adjusted EBITDA, compared to $56.3 million in Q1 2025.

  • Performance Brands reported $12.6 million of adjusted EBITDA, with record TruFuel sales volume.

  • Montana Renewables segment posted $10.2 million of adjusted EBITDA with Tax Attributes, up from $3.3 million in Q1 2025.

  • Net income (loss) for Q1 2026 was $(317.0) million, with significant non-cash expenses including $147.4 million RINs and $102.7 million unrealized derivative loss.

Outlook and guidance

  • Expectation of a strong Q2 with additional cash flow generation, supported by price increases and elevated fuel margins.

  • SET2 RVO finalized in March 2026 supports robust renewable diesel and SAF demand, correcting prior regulatory shortfalls.

  • Renewables business at a positive inflection point, with a 4-5x increase in SAF volumes anticipated on an annual run rate basis.

  • No change in the plan to eventually monetize Montana Renewables; focus remains on demonstrating earnings power post-expansion.

  • Positioned to accelerate deleveraging and pursue long-term growth as operational improvements take effect.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
