Greenlane Announces Over $2 Million in Orders for Biogas Desulfurization Equipment
~Orders highlight continued adoption and trajectory toward establishing the Company's product line as the global industry standard~ VANCOUVER, BC, June 2, 2025 /CNW/ - Greenlane Renewables Inc. (" Greenlane" or the " Company") (TSX: GRN) (FSE: 52G), a leading global provider of biogas desulfurization and upgrading systems, today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Airdep S.r.l. has received new purchase orders totalling over $2 million (€1.3M). The purchases were made by a repeat customer for the supply of multiple units of proprietary biogas desulfurization equipment to support the production of renewable natural gas ("RNG"). Order fulfillment is expected to commence immediately. "Our aim at Greenlane is to make RNG projects more accessible and scalable by solving the industry's most challenging technology problems, one of which is biogas desulfurization," said Brad Douville, CEO of Greenlane. "All biogas projects require hydrogen sulfide ("H 2 S") removal and our biogas desulfurization product line has set the standard in Italy and is increasingly being adopted in global markets. According to the International Energy Agency, Italy is the fastest growing biomethane market in Europe. Our biogas desulfurization product line delivers a proven and reliable regenerative solution where the goal is high H 2 S removal performance at low cost." Our biogas desulfurization technology includes the following process steps. The raw untreated biogas feeds into the bottom of a scrubbing tower where it flows, countercurrent, to a proprietary liquid chemical solution. Treated gas exits through the top of the scrubber. The sulfur-rich liquid solution is regenerated in a separate oxidation tank after which it is transferred to a sedimentation tank to allow the elemental sulfur solids to drop out. Clean, regenerated solution returns to the scrubbing tower in a continuous and efficient process. The process neither requires the addition of oxygen nor adds it to the treated gas. This is critical because oxygen is difficult and costly to remove after being added in alternative approaches to H 2 S removal such for biological scrubbers or injection directly into the digester. Excess oxygen can lead to pipeline shut out due to non-compliance with injection specifications. Our biogas desulfurization systems are easy to install and operate and eliminate many of the operational issues and costs that come with traditional biological scrubbing and media-based H 2 S removal systems. The elemental sulfur solids created in the removal process can be spread on fields as fertilizer. About Greenlane Renewables Greenlane is driving change: accelerating the energy transition.

Greenlane Renewables Announces First Quarter 2025 Financial Results
~Company on track with its 2025 strategic initiatives while maintaining healthy cash reserves~ VANCOUVER, BC, May 15, 2025 /CNW/ - Greenlane Renewables Inc. ("Greenlane'' or the "Company") (TSX: GRN) (FSE: 52G) (OTC: GRNWF) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. For further information on these results please see the Company's Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at All amounts reported are in Canadian dollars and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") unless otherwise stated. First Quarter Highlights Include: Revenue of $7.0 million; Gross profit of $2.6 million, Gross Margin1 before amortization of $2.8 million (40% of revenue); Adjusted EBITDA2 loss of $1.1 million; Net loss and comprehensive loss of $1.0 million; Sales Order Backlog3 of $21.2 million as at March 31, 2025; and Cash and cash equivalents of $16.2 million and no debt, other than payables, advance payment / performance bonding and standby letters of credit resulting from normal course operations, as at March 31, 2025. "We are on track with the execution of our 2025 strategic plan," said Brad Douville, CEO of Greenlane. "Our aim is making renewable natural gas ("RNG") projects more accessible and scalable by solving the industry's most challenging problems. From a technology perspective, biogas desulfurization and landfill gas upgrading technology is needed at lower cost and higher performance. Every biogas project has hydrogen sulfide ("H2S") that must be removed and, in the Americas, 60% to 70% of RNG is produced from landfill gas. We have solved the H2S removal problem with our biogas desulfurization product line that has set the standard in Italy and is increasingly being adopted in global markets. The problem with today's landfill gas upgrading technology is achieving low cost and high methane recovery when oxygen and nitrogen need to be removed. Greenlane is solving this problem by developing and bringing to market our next generation landfill gas upgrading product line that incorporates the content of new patent applications we filed in December. As we strive to advance the state-of-the-art of technology in our industry, we are not only actively expanding our intellectual property portfolio, we are also deepening strategic partnerships and advancing plans to localize manufacturing in key markets, including the U.S. and Brazil—positioning us for long-term growth and operational resilience." "During the current period of economic uncertainty, driven by new and changing U.S. tariffs, the focus of infrastructure investors in the U.S. appears to be on optimization of the large number of RNG producing assets constructed over the last few years while taking a wait-and-see approach on new project starts. In Canada, with the newly elected federal government, who campaigned in part on building a clean economy and tackling climate change, we are optimistic about new support for RNG projects. Brazil's new biomethane legislation under the Fuel for the Future law calls for a twenty-fold production increase. In Europe, a market increasingly dominated by anaerobic digestion of agricultural residues, we see continued investor enthusiasm for biomethane and demand for our products and services. All of this bodes well for our strategy because our biogas desulfurization products and our parts and service offerings not only play an important role in new projects, but also in optimizing existing ones and the time is now to be developing and bringing to market our next generation landfill gas upgrading product line." "In the first quarter we delivered $7.0 million in revenue with a solid gross margin of 40%, versus 27% in the same period last year, reflecting our focus on profitable revenue streams," said Stephanie Mason, CFO of Greenlane. "While we reported an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.1 million, we replenished our sales order backlog to $21.2 million, compared to $21.8 million as at December 31, 2024, and we realized 31% lower general and administration expenses of $3.5 million in the first quarter compared to $5.0 million in the same period last year. Additionally, our strong cash position of $16.2 million, consistent with the cash position as at December 31, 2024—along with no debt—underscores the strength of our fundamentals. There was no royalty revenue in the first quarter. However, advance payments of $3.3 million received under the technology licensing agreement with ZEG Biogás included in deferred revenue were considered fully earned subsequent to the end of Q1, 2025. Accordingly, this amount, resulting from the agreement's minimum volume commitment in the first two years, will be recognized as revenue at a gross margin excluding amortization of $2.8 million in the Company's second quarter 2025 results." "We remain focused on operational discipline and execution as we work to convert our backlog into profitable revenue, grow sales in our most profitable segments and drive long-term value for our shareholders." As a reminder, the three pillars of the Company's 2025 strategic plan include (1) continued sales growth in the most profitable segments of its business including biogas desulfurization products, parts and service, and technology licensing, (2) development of its compelling next generation landfill gas upgrading product line, and (3) improvement of profitability of its core upgrading systems segment. The Market Outlook Globally, biogas continues to be seen as a key player in addressing climate change and energy challenges. The American Biogas Council (ABC) has launched a major advertising campaign to emphasize the potential of biogas as a critical source of renewable energy and economic growth. As Congress considers key clean energy tax provisions, the campaign aims to raise awareness among policymakers and the public about biogas's ability to convert organic waste into renewable fuel and electricity. According to Patrick Serfass, Executive Director of ABC, biogas offers a solution to the dual challenges of waste management and energy production, providing a reliable source of domestic energy while driving job creation and economic development. There is significant growth potential in Brazil, where new biomethane legislation under the Fuel for the Future law mandates a progressive reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from natural gas suppliers. Starting in 2026, at least 1% of carbon dioxide emissions must be offset using biomethane or certified credits, with a long-term goal of reaching 10%. Meeting this target will require biomethane production to scale up to approximately 5.1 million cubic meters per day—twenty times the country's current average production. This presents a major opportunity for Greenlane, particularly as we advance our growth plans and operations in Brazil while delivering scalable upgrading solutions. Management's Discussion on Financial Results The public is invited to watch Brad Douville, Chief Executive Officer, and Stephanie Mason, Chief Financial Officer present the results through a video presentation on the Company's Events and Presentations page located HERE. SPECIFIED FINANCIAL MEASURES Management evaluates the Company's performance using a variety of measures, including "Gross Margin before amortization", "Adjusted EBITDA" and "Sales Order Backlog". The specified financial measures, including non-IFRS measures and supplementary financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to or more meaningful than revenue, gross profit or net income. These measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other publicly traded companies and should not be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. The Company believes these specified financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors in measuring the financial performance and financial condition of the Company. Management uses these specified financial measures to exclude the impact of certain expenses and income that must be recognized under IFRS when analyzing consolidated underlying operating performance, as the excluded items are not necessarily reflective of the Company's underlying operating performance and make comparisons of underlying financial performance between periods difficult. From time to time, the Company may exclude additional items if it believes doing so would result in a more effective analysis of underlying operating performance. The exclusion of certain items does not imply that they are non-recurring. Note 1 - Gross Margin before amortization is a non-IFRS measure and is defined by the Company as gross profit before amortization of intangible assets and property and equipment. Note 2 - Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined by the Company as earnings before interest, taxes, foreign exchange, depreciation and amortization, as well as adjustments for other income (expense), value assigned to options and RSU's granted, strategic initiatives, transaction costs and non-recurring items. Reconciliation of net loss and comprehensive loss to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations: (in $000s) Three months ended March 31, 2025 2024 Net loss and comprehensive loss (983) (796) Add (deduct): Exchange difference on translating foreign operations (32) (22) Provisions for income taxes 124 256 Foreign exchange gain (488) (131) Other (income) loss 26 (252) Finance income (94) (104) Finance expense 32 35 Share-based compensation 72 200 Amortization of office equipment 54 53 Amortization of property and equipment 75 86 Amortization of intangible assets 144 138 Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations (1,070) (537) Note 3 - Greenlane provides regular updates on its upgrader system sales opportunities that successfully convert into contractual agreements in its reported sales order backlog ("Sales Order Backlog"). Sales Order Backlog is a supplementary financial measure that refers to the balance of unrecognized revenue from contracted system sales. The Company's Sales Order Backlog is a snapshot in time which varies from period-to-period. The Sales Order Backlog increases by the value of new system sales contracts and is drawn down over time as these projects progress towards completion with amounts recognized in revenue (by reference to the stage of completion of each contract). Note that Sales Order Backlog does not include part and service or royalty revenue. About Greenlane RenewablesGreenlane is driving change: accelerating the energy transition.

From time to time, the Company may exclude additional items if it believes doing so would result in a more effective analysis of underlying operating performance. The exclusion of certain items does not imply that they are non-recurring. Note 1 - Gross Margin before amortization is a non-IFRS measure and is defined by the Company as gross profit before amortization of intangible assets and property and equipment. Note 2 - Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined by the Company as earnings before interest, taxes, foreign exchange, depreciation and amortization, as well as adjustments for other income (expense), value assigned to options and RSU's granted, strategic initiatives, transaction costs and non-recurring items. Reconciliation of net loss and comprehensive loss to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations: Note 3 - Greenlane provides regular updates on its upgrader system sales opportunities that successfully convert into contractual agreements in its reported sales order backlog (" Sales Order Backlog"). Sales Order Backlog is a supplementary financial measure that refers to the balance of unrecognized revenue from contracted system sales. The Company's Sales Order Backlog is a snapshot in time which varies from period-to-period. The Sales Order Backlog increases by the value of new system sales contracts and is drawn down over time as these projects progress towards completion with amounts recognized in revenue (by reference to the stage of completion of each contract). Note that Sales Order Backlog does not include part and service or royalty revenue. About Greenlane Renewables Greenlane is driving change: accelerating the energy transition.

Timing of new contract awards varies due to customer-related factors such as finalizing technical specifications and securing project funding, permits and RNG off-take and feedstock agreements. Some contracts contain termination provisions that allow the customer to terminate with no penalty or with minimum prescribed threshold payments based on the length of time since the contract was entered into. Some projects have built-in pause periods to allow customers to complete concurrent activities such as civil work. As a result, the Company's revenue varies from month to month and quarter-to-quarter.
