Gevo, Inc.: Gevo Reports Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results and Reaffirms Business Update

Finanznachrichten News

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., March 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEVO) ("Gevo", the "Company", "we", "us" or "our"), a leading developer of cost effective, renewable hydrocarbon fuels and chemicals with reduced greenhouse gas emissions, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024, and reaffirmed the Business Update that was released on March 7, 2025 (the "Business Update"), which is available on our website at https://investors.gevo.com/news-releases/news-release-details/gevo-provides-business-update-1.

2024 Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights

  • Ended the fourth quarter with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $259.0 million.
  • Combined operating revenue and investment income was $8.9 million and $32.7 million for the fourth quarter and full year 2024, respectively.
    • On a standalone basis, our RNG subsidiary generated revenue of $15.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. This reflects an increase of $0.3 million compared to the previous year, primarily due to higher sales of environmental attributes from our RNG project. We expect a lower CI score in anticipation of receiving the final pathway approval under the LCFS Program, which is anticipated in the first quarter of 2025.
  • Loss from operations of $19.6 million for the fourth quarter.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss1 of $11.3 million for the fourth quarter.
  • Sale of environment attributes net of $5.4 million for the fourth quarter.
  • RNG subsidiary generated a loss from operations of $3.5 million, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA profit1 of $2.7 million for the fourth quarter.
  • Net loss per share of $.08 for the fourth quarter.

1Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure calculated by adding back depreciation and amortization, allocated intercompany expenses for shared service functions, and non-cash stock-based compensation to GAAP loss from operations. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP loss from operations is provided in the financial statement tables following this release. Adjusted EBITDA was referred to as "cash EBITDA" in previous periods.

2024 Fourth Quarter Financial Results

Operating revenue. During 2024, operating revenue decreased $0.3 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to lower sales of environmental attributes from our RNG project. This is due to a buildup of environmental attribute inventory in anticipation of receiving the final pathway approval under the LCFS Program, which we expect to result in a lower CI score. The approval is anticipated in the first quarter of 2025. During 2024, we sold 366,557 MMBtu of RNG from our RNG project, resulting in biogas commodity sales of $0.7 million and environmental attribute sales of $15.1 million. Additionally, we recognized $0.8 million of licensing and development revenue from the agreement with LG Chem as well as $0.3 million from the sale of isooctane and software services during 2024.

Cost of production. Cost of production remained consistent during 2024, compared to the prior year.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization, which includes depreciation and amortization which was allocated to inventory and is included in depreciation and amortization upon the sale of the associated inventory, decreased $0.7 million during 2024, compared to the prior year, primarily due to the timing of sales of environmental attribute inventory.

Research and development expense. Research and development expense decreased $1.1 million during 2024, compared to the prior year, primarily due to a reduction of consulting expenses and personnel related costs.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense increased $3.2 million during 2024 compared to the prior year, primarily due to increases in personnel costs related to the hiring of highly qualified and skilled professionals, and professional consulting fees, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation.

Project development costs. Project development costs are related to our future Alcohol-to-Jet Projects and Verity and consist primarily of employee expenses, preliminary engineering costs, and technical consulting costs. Project development costs increased $3.4 million during 2024, compared to the prior year, primarily due to patent related costs, increases in personnel costs, and consulting fees.

Acquisition related costs. Certain acquisition costs incurred related to the Red Trail Purchase Agreement during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Facility idling costs. Facility idling costs are related to care and maintenance of our Luverne Facility. Facility idling costs decreased by $1.1 million during 2024, compared to the prior year.

Loss from operations. The Company's loss from operations increased by $9.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to the increase in costs related to acquisitions, general and administrative expenses, and project development costs.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased by $1.7 million during 2024 compared to the prior year, primarily due to interest on the Remarketed Bonds.

Interest and investment income. Interest and investment income decreased $3.4 million during 2024, compared to the prior year, primarily due to the usage of cash for our capital projects and operating costs, resulting in a lower balance of cash equivalent investments during 2024.

Other income. Other income increased $1.6 million during 2024, compared to the prior year, primarily due to the termination of the expediting procurement agreement with a local utility which resulted in a one-time charge of $1.6 million in 2023.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this press release and the Business Update may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements relate to a variety of matters, including, without limitation, the financing and the timing of our NZ1 project, the agreement with LG Chem, the DOE loan guarantee process, the Red Trail Energy acquisition and timing of its closing, the successful integration of the CultivateAI acquisition, the success and revenue of Verity, the success of our ETO business, our financial condition, our results of operation and liquidity, our business plans, our business development activities, our Alcohol-to-Jet Projects, financial projections related to our business, our RNG project, our fuel sales agreements, our plans to develop our business, our ability to successfully develop, construct, and finance our operations and growth projects, our ability to achieve cash flow from our planned projects, the ability of our products to contribute to lower greenhouse gas emissions, particulate and sulfur pollution, and other statements that are not purely statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements are made based on the current beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the management of Gevo and are subject to significant risks and uncertainty. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and Gevo undertakes no obligation to update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although Gevo believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements involve many risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from what may be expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. For a further discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, as well as risks relating to the business of Gevo in general, see the risk disclosures in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K and other filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by Gevo.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains a financial measure that does not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, allocated intercompany expenses for shared service functions, and non-cash stock-based compensation from GAAP loss from operations. Management believes this measure is useful to supplement its GAAP financial statements with this non-GAAP information because management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. This non-GAAP financial measure also facilitates management's internal comparisons to Gevo's historical performance as well as comparisons to the operating results of other companies. In addition, Gevo believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it allows for greater transparency into the indicators used by management as a basis for its financial and operational decision making. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and therefore, should only be read in conjunction with financial information reported under U.S. GAAP when understanding Gevo's operating performance. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided below.
