OPAL, Republic team up for RNG plant in North Carolina
OPAL Fuels (Nasdaq: OPAL) announced that it has entered into a joint venture with an affiliate of environmental services leader Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG) for a new biogas-to-renewable natural gas ('RNG') facility at Republic's Charlotte Motor Speedway Landfill in Concord, North Carolina. The new RNG facility, owned jointly by OPAL and its minority partner, a Republic Services affiliate, will have an initial annual design capacity of approximately 1.4 million MMBtu. This project is a conversion of an existing OPAL-owned renewable electricity facility at the site, and the joint venture has executed a new long-term gas rights agreement for the RNG plant. OPAL has already made investments into the construction of this facility and it is expected to come online consistent with recent RNG project timelines. Using proven technology, the project will capture biomethane produced naturally from the decomposition of organic material from the landfill and convert it into RNG, a low-carbon, low-cost transportation fuel. 'This facility further advances OPAL Fuels' positioning as a leader in the development, operation, and distribution of RNG that provides a sustainable and cost-effective fuel solution for fleets,' said Jonathan Maurer, co-CEO, OPAL Fuels. 'We appreciate increased collaboration with best-in-class partners as we continue to bring cost effective solutions for partners, fleet customers, and the local communities they serve.'

OPAL Fuels Reports First Quarter 2025 Results
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- OPAL Fuels Inc. ('OPAL Fuels' or the 'Company') (Nasdaq: OPAL) today announced financial and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025. 'First quarter results were in-line with expectations as we continue to execute on our strategic and operational goals and we are on track to achieve our full year outlook set in March,' said Adam Comora, co-CEO. 'Despite the uncertainties arising from the macro and policy environment, our operations remain solid and industry fundamentals continue to make RNG an attractive sector long-term. Capturing and converting methane emissions from organic waste is readily acknowledged as an effective and attractive option to decarbonize the Class 8 truck market today." "Our two RNG facilities which we brought online in the fourth quarter of 2024 are performing as expected through their respective ramp-up periods and support our full-year production target," said co-CEO Jonathan Maurer. "We're also pleased that we completed our second ITC sale in the first quarter and expect additional sales later this year. With respect to our Fuel Station Services segment we saw solid first quarter results and expect this trend to continue for the remainder of 2025." 'Landfill RNG assets have visible and stable growth with minimal ongoing capital requirements, thus generating significant free cash flow during their operations. We continue to believe that the outlook for OPAL Fuels is strong and our focus on the disciplined execution of our growth strategy is creating meaningful shareholder value," continued Maurer. Financial Highlights Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $85.4 million, an increase of 31% compared to the prior-year period. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $1.3 million, compared to $0.7 million in the same period last year. Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Class A common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $0.01 compared to $0.01 in the comparable period last year.

Expand RNG Facility Capacity and Utilization Summary Three Months Ended March 31 2025 2024 RNG Facility Capacity and Utilization Design Capacity (Million MMBtus) (1) 2.3 1.3 Volume of Inlet Gas (Million MMBtus) (2) 1.4 1.0 Inlet Design Capacity Utilization (%) (2) 69 % 80 % RNG Fuel volume produced (Million MMBtus) 1.1 0.8 Utilization of Inlet Gas (%) (3) 77 % 81 % (1) Design Capacity for RNG facilities is measured as the volume of feedstock biogas that the facility is capable of accepting at the inlet and processing during the associated period. Design Capacity is presented as OPAL's ownership share (i.e., net of joint venture partners' ownership) of the facility and is calculated based on the number of days in the period. New facilities that come online during a quarter are pro-rated for the number of days in commercial operation. (2) Inlet Design Capacity Utilization is measured as the Volume of Inlet Gas for a period, divided by the total Design Capacity for such period. The Volume of Inlet Gas varies over time depending on, among other factors, (i) the quantity and quality of waste deposited at the landfill, (ii) waste management practices by the landfill, and (iii) the construction, operations and maintenance of the landfill gas collection system used to recover the landfill gas. The Design Capacity for each facility will typically be correlated to the amount of landfill gas expected to be generated by the landfill during the term of the related gas rights agreement. The Company expects Inlet Design Capacity Utilization to be in the range of 75-85% on an aggregate basis over the next several years. Typically, newer facilities perform at the lower end of this range and demonstrate increasing utilization as they mature and the biogas resource increases at open landfills. Excludes Sunoma and Biotown. (3) Utilization of Inlet Gas is measured as RNG Fuel Volume Produced divided by the Volume of Inlet Gas. Utilization of Inlet Gas varies over time depending on availability and efficiency of the facility and the quality of landfill gas (i.e., concentrations of methane, oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases). The Company generally expects Utilization of Inlet Gas to be in the range of 80% to 90%. Excludes Sunoma and Biotown. Expand Liquidity As of March 31, 2025, our liquidity was $239.9 million, consisting of $178.4 million of unused capacity under our $450 million senior secured credit facility, $21.4 million of unused capacity under the associated revolver, and $40.1 million of cash and cash equivalents. We believe our liquidity, operating cash flows, and anticipated sources of capital are sufficient to meet our expected funding needs. Capital Expenditures During the three months ended March 31, 2025, OPAL Fuels invested $11.6 million across RNG projects in construction and OPAL Fuels proprietary fueling stations in construction as compared to $26.8 million in the prior year. In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company's portion of capital expenditures in unconsolidated entities was $5.4 million. This represents our share of capital expenditures incurred by equity method investments.

We believe these measures provide important supplemental information to investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results. We use these measures, together with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP" or "U.S. GAAP"), for internal managerial purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. However, we do not, and you should not, rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations, that when taken together with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures that we also provide, give a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We strongly encourage you to review all of our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and to not solely rely on any single non-GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures are limited as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the Company's GAAP results. The Company expects to continue reporting non-GAAP financial measures, adjusting for the items described below (and/or other items that may arise in the future as the Company's management deems appropriate), and the Company expects to continue to incur expenses, charges or gains like the non-GAAP adjustments described below. Accordingly, unless expressly stated otherwise, the exclusion of these and other similar items in the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual, infrequent, or non-recurring. These Non-GAAP financial measures are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to GAAP net income or any other GAAP measure as indicators of operating performance. Moreover, because not all companies use identical measures and calculations, the Company's presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. We strongly encourage you to review all of our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and to not solely rely on any single non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA To supplement the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses a non-GAAP financial measure that it calls adjusted EBITDA ("Adjusted EBITDA"). This non-GAAP financial measure adjusts net income for interest and financing expense, net, net (income) loss attributable to non-redeemable non-controlling interests, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, adjustments to reflect Adjusted EBITDA from equity method investments, unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, non-cash charges, one-time non-recurring charges, major maintenance on Renewable Power, RNG development costs, virtual pipeline costs, and ITC proceeds, net. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information about the Company's performance, for the following reasons: (1) it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management to assess the Company's operating performance and make financial and operational decisions; (2) the measure excludes the effect of items that management believes are not directly attributable to the Company's core operating performance and may obscure trends in the business; (3) the measure better aligns revenues with expenses; and (4) the measure is used by institutional investors and the analyst community to help analyze the Company's business. In future quarters, the Company may adjust for other expenditures, charges or gains to present non-GAAP financial measures that the Company's management believes are indicative of the Company's core operating performance. The following table presents the reconciliation of our net income to Adjusted EBITDA:
