Kevin Van Asdalan: Our Bowerman facility operating and maintenance expenses decreased approximately $0.7 million primarily related to decreased wellfield operational costs and timing of gas processing preventative maintenance. We recorded within operating and maintenance expenses approximately $8.3 million in Q2 2026 related to the cost of RINs distributed from Green Wave when sold and the cost related to pathway dispensing associated with the dispensing of RNG. There were no such expenses incurred during Q2 2025. During Q2 2026, we recorded impairments of $0.7 million, an increase of $0.3 million compared to $0.4 million in Q2 2025. The increase relates specifically to identified discrete or non-operable assets. We did not record any impairments during Q2 2026 related to our estimate of future cash flows.

Speaker #4: Thanks. Congratulations on the progress. RIN pricing seems to have stabilized in the past six or seven months. It was nice to hear your commentary on the sequential increase in the third quarter.
Tim Moore: Thanks. Congratulations on the progress. RIN pricing seems to have stabilized the past six or seven months. It was nice to hear your commentary on the sequential increase in Q3. Just from your own visibility and what you're seeing, is there just improve transparency in the marketplace for that compared to last year? I know the EPA website stopped posting it January 2023, but just what are you seeing and the behaviors around RIN purchases?
Tim Moore: Thanks. Congratulations on the progress. RIN pricing seems to have stabilized the past six or seven months. It was nice to hear your commentary on the sequential increase in Q3. Just from your own visibility and what you're seeing, is there just improve transparency in the marketplace for that compared to last year? I know the EPA website stopped posting it January 2023, but just what are you seeing and the behaviors around RIN purchases?
Speaker #4: Can you just, just from your own visibility and what you're seeing, is there just improved transparency in the marketplace for that compared to last year?
Speaker #4: I know the EPA website stopped posting it January last year, but just kind of what are you seeing, and kind of the behaviors around RIN purchases?
Speaker #2: Yes, Tim. I'll handle the first section, and then maybe Sean can offer some guidance or not guidance, but some clarity in regards to our obligated party process.
Kevin Van Asdalan: Yeah, Tim, I'll handle the first section, then maybe Sean can offer some clarity in regards to our obligated party process. Yeah, while we have seen some RIN stability here in the first call it five or six months, we think some of that stability was coming through the, there was an extended year settlement for 2025 that completed itself in Q2. Now I believe getting on the other side of completing the 2025 vintage period and moving into 2026 with, I guess, a settled RVO and obligated parties getting into their 2026 obligated purchases. We believe that's contributed to the historical path of RIN lack of volatility here in 2026.
Kevin Van Asdalan: Yeah, Tim, I'll handle the first section, then maybe Sean can offer some clarity in regards to our obligated party process. Yeah, while we have seen some RIN stability here in the first call it five or six months, we think some of that stability was coming through the, there was an extended year settlement for 2025 that completed itself in Q2. Now I believe getting on the other side of completing the 2025 vintage period and moving into 2026 with, I guess, a settled RVO and obligated parties getting into their 2026 obligated purchases. We believe that's contributed to the historical path of RIN lack of volatility here in 2026.
Speaker #2: But yeah, while we have seen some RINs stability here, in the first call it five or six months, we think some of that stability was coming through the there was an extended year settlement for 2025 that completed itself in the second quarter.
Speaker #2: And I believe getting on the other side of sort of completing the 2025 vintage period and moving into 2026 with, I guess, a settled RVO and obligated parties getting into their 2026 obligated purchases, we believe that's contributed to the historical path of RIN lack of volatility here in 2026.
Speaker #1: Yeah. And Tim, what I can offer is obviously reaffirming our strategy when we self-market these RINs. Rather than marketing them to anyone that is willing to purchase in the short term, we do emphasize and focus Is on obligated parties to ensure that , as many of our generated written volumes are purchased by those that have the intention to retire it for compliance purposes , I do see , , an increase in the predominance of those obligated parties stepping into the marketplace and buying more regularly earlier on in the compliance year than we've seen in previous years , so that does , , tie well into some of the comments that Kevin made .
Sean McClain: Yeah. Tim, what I can offer is, obviously reaffirming our strategy when we self-market these RINs. Rather than marketing them to anyone that is willing to purchase in the short term, we do emphasize and focus on obligated parties to ensure that as many of our generated RIN volumes are purchased by those that have the intention to retire it for compliance purposes. I do see an increase in the predominance of those obligated parties stepping into the marketplace and buying more regularly earlier on in the compliance year than we've seen in previous years.

That does tie well into some of the comments that Kevin made.
Tim Moore: No, that's great. It's nice to see a little bit more buying regularly behavior. I have one more question, and I'll save the rest for offline for a catch-up later today. The revenue guidance for RNG for $175 to $190 million reiterated, does that include the Green Wave related revenue such as you receive distributed RIN sold? I'm just kind of curious because that was a contribution, I guess, in the quarter.
Tim Moore: No, that's great. It's nice to see a little bit more buying regularly behavior. I have one more question, and I'll save the rest for offline for a catch-up later today. The revenue guidance for RNG for $175 to $190 million reiterated, does that include the Green Wave related revenue such as you receive distributed RIN sold? I'm just kind of curious because that was a contribution, I guess, in the quarter.
Speaker #2: That's great . It's nice to see that a little bit more buying regularly , , behavior . , I have one more question .
Speaker #2: Then I'll save the rest for offline for catch up later today . , so the revenue guidance for RNG for 175 to 190 million reiterated , , does that include the green wave related revenue such as you receive distributed rinse old .
Speaker #2: , I'm just kind of curious because that was a contribution , I guess , in the quarter
Speaker #3: Yeah , it's a contribution we include green wave in our , in our forecasts for what we expect to receive from the third party .
Kevin Van Asdalan: Yeah, it's a contribution. We include Green Wave in our forecasts for what we expect to receive from the third party volumes that we're distributing through that pathway. Yeah, there would be expectations of inclusion of RIN revenues from Green Wave. We do expect some wellfield enhancement and investments large in H2 of the year to support the production guidance that we have for our RNG segment.
Kevin Van Asdalan: Yeah, it's a contribution. We include Green Wave in our forecasts for what we expect to receive from the third party volumes that we're distributing through that pathway. Yeah, there would be expectations of inclusion of RIN revenues from Green Wave. We do expect some wellfield enhancement and investments large in H2 of the year to support the production guidance that we have for our RNG segment.
Speaker #3: , volumes that we're distributing through that pathway . , but yeah , so there would be expectations of inclusion of , of ribbon of , in revenues from green wave .
Speaker #3: , and we do expect some well field enhancement and investment large in the second half of the year to support the production guidance that we have for our RNG segment
Tim Moore: No, that's great clarification, Kevin. I'm including that in my model now. Thank you. That's it for my questions.
Tim Moore: No, that's great clarification, Kevin. I'm including that in my model now. Thank you. That's it for my questions.
Speaker #2: That's great clarification Kevin . , including that in my model now . So thank you . That's it for my questions
