Gevo Inc
gevo.comGevo Inc (NASDAQ: GEVO) is a renewable fuels and chemicals company that produces low-carbon ethanol, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), and renewable natural gas (RNG) from carbohydrate feedstocks, primarily field corn in the U.S. Midwest. Revenue comes from selling ethanol, RNG, and associated environmental attributes including Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs) and Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) credits, with federal clean fuel production tax credits under Section 45Z of the Internal Revenue Code also offsetting production costs as of FY2025. The company operates across three reported segments, Gevo, GevoFuels, and GevoND, and on January 31, 2025 closed the acquisition of substantially all assets of Red Trail Energy. Gevo carries a portfolio of several hundred patents and patent applications and uses its proprietary Verity platform for end-to-end carbon intensity tracking. General and administrative expense totaled $51.2 million in FY2025, up 12% year over year, while R&D expense was $4.6 million in FY2025. The company is pre-profitability and capital-intensive, relying on at-the-market equity offerings and project-level debt financing.
