Clean Energy Reports Revenue of $103.7 Million and 58.0 Million RNG Gallons Sold for the First Quarter of 2024

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — May 9, 2024 — Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE) (“Clean Energy” or the “Company”) today announced its operating results for the first quarter of 2024.

Financial Highlights

Revenue of $103.7 million in Q1 2024 compared to $132.2 million in Q1 2023.
Net loss attributable to Clean Energy for Q1 2024 was $(18.4) million, or $(0.08) per share, on a GAAP (as defined below) basis, compared to $(38.7) million, or $(0.17) per share, for Q1 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) was $12.8 million for Q1 2024, compared to $(4.0) million for Q1 2023.
Cash, Cash Equivalents (less restricted cash) and Short-Term Investments totaled $248.9 million as of March 31, 2024.
2024 outlook (Unchanged):
o GAAP net loss of approximately $(111) million to $(101) million.
o Adjusted EBITDA of $62 million to $72 million.

Operational and Strategic Highlights

Renewable natural gas (“RNG”) gallons sold of 58.0 million gallons in Q1 2024, an 8.6% increase compared to Q1 2023.
Opened two new fueling stations in Texas offering RNG accommodating public and private fueling for over 250 trucks.
Completed construction on another dairy farm RNG digester project totaling $26 million and 6,000 dairy cows.

Commentary by Andrew J. Littlefair, President and Chief Executive Officer

“What a difference a year makes. Not only did our first quarter results rebound compared to a year ago, but we also exceeded our own expectations in several metrics including Adjusted EBITDA. Our fuel volumes continue to grow thanks in large part to the newly opened fleet stations, we’re moving forward on all fronts with our dairy digestor projects, and our balance sheet remains strong. As we’ve discussed, 2024 will be transformational on a variety of fronts with our dairy projects coming online and going into operations and loading capacity at newly built large fueling stations. A solid first quarter helps to position us to come out well through this transition as we continue to steadily improve RNG fuel volumes and financial results.”

Summary and Review of Results

The Company’s revenue for the first quarter of 2024 was reduced by $12.9 million of non-cash stock-based sales incentive contra-revenue charges (“Amazon warrant charges”) relating to the warrant issued to Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC (the “Amazon warrant”), compared to Amazon warrant charges of $13.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. Q1 2024 includes $5.4 million of alternative fuel excise tax credit (“AFTC”) revenue versus $4.5 million of AFTC in the first quarter of 2023. Q1 2024 station construction revenues of $5.6 million versus $4.1 million of station construction revenues in Q1 2023. Revenue for the first quarter of 2024 also included an unrealized gain of $1.6 million on commodity swap and customer fueling contracts relating to the Company’s Zero Now truck financing program, compared to an unrealized loss of $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. Q1 2024 renewable identification number (“RIN”) and low carbon fuel standards (“LCFS”) revenues combined of $8.6 million versus $6.8 million of RIN and LCFS revenues in the first quarter of 2023 reflecting principally higher RIN credit prices and an increase in gallons of fuel sold, partially offset by lower LCFS revenue due to the timing of a contract for the sale of certain LCFS credits being transacted in April 2024. Natural gas costs were lower in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023 resulting in lower sales prices, which are based off the costs of natural gas. Effects of lower sales prices in Q1 2024 were partially offset by an increase in gallons of fuel and services sold and serviced, respectively, in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023.

Net loss attributable to Clean Energy for the first quarter of 2024 had lower Amazon warrant charges and an unrealized gain on derivative instruments relating to the Company’s Zero Now truck financing program when compared to Q1 2023. Q1 2024 non-operating net interest expenses and losses from equity method investments were higher than Q1 2023 primarily due to higher outstanding indebtedness


combined with higher amortization of debt discount and issuance costs and expansion of our RNG investments, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses were lower in Q1 2024 by approximately $3.4 million mainly due to lower stock-based compensation expense resulting from vesting of equity awards granted in prior years.

Non-GAAP income (loss) per share (as defined below) for the first quarter of 2024 was $(0.01), compared to $(0.07) per share for the first quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) was $12.8 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $(4.0) million for the first quarter of 2023.

In this press release, Clean Energy refers to various GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures being used and disclosed by other companies. Clean Energy believes that this non-GAAP information is useful to an understanding of its operating results and the ongoing performance of its business. Non-GAAP income (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA are defined below and reconciled to GAAP net income (loss) per share attributable to Clean Energy and GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Clean Energy, respectively.

The table below shows GAAP and non-GAAP income (loss) attributable to Clean Energy per share and also reconciles GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Clean Energy to the non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Clean Energy figure used in the calculation of non-GAAP income (loss) per share:

Fuel and Service Volume

The following tables present, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, (1) the amount of total fuel volume the Company sold to customers with particular focus on RNG volume as a subset of total fuel volume and (2) operation and maintenance (“O&M”) services volume dispensed at facilities the Company does not own but at which it provides O&M services on a per-gallon or fixed fee basis. Certain gallons are included in both fuel and service volumes when the Company sells fuel (product revenue) to a customer and provides maintenance services (service revenue) to the same customer.

(1) The Company’s volume-related product revenue primarily consists of sales of RNG and conventional natural gas, in the form of CNG and LNG, and sales of RINs and LCFS Credits in addition to changes in fair value of our derivative instruments.

(2) Includes $13.7 million and $12.9 million of Amazon warrant non-cash stock-based sales incentive contra-revenue charges for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

(3) The change in fair value of derivative instruments is related to the Company’s commodity swap and customer fueling contracts. The amounts are classified as revenue because the Company’s commodity swap contracts are used to economically offset the risk associated with the diesel-to-natural gas price spread resulting from customer fueling contracts under the Company’s Zero Now truck financing program.

2024 Outlook (Unchanged)

Our 2024 outlook is unchanged from the 2024 outlook included in our press release of February 27, 2024.  As such, our GAAP net loss for 2024 is expected to range from approximately $(111) million to $(101) million, assuming no unrealized gains or losses on commodity swap and customer contracts relating to the Company’s Zero Now truck financing program and including Amazon warrant charges estimated to be approximately $69 million. Changes in diesel and natural gas market conditions resulting in unrealized gains or losses on the Company’s commodity swap and customer fueling contracts relating to the Company’s Zero Now truck financing program, and significant variations in the vesting of the Amazon warrant could significantly affect the Company’s estimated GAAP net loss for 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 is estimated to range from approximately $62 million to $72 million. These expectations exclude the impact of any acquisitions, divestitures, new joint ventures, transactions and other extraordinary events; any lingering negative effects associated directly or indirectly with the COVID-19 pandemic; and macroeconomic conditions and global supply chain issues. Additionally, the expectations regarding 2024 Adjusted EBITDA assumes the calculation of this non-GAAP financial measure in the same manner as described above and adding back the estimated Amazon warrant charges described above and without adjustments for

any other items that may arise during 2024 that management deems appropriate to exclude. These expectations are forward-looking statements and are qualified by the statement under “Safe Harbor Statement” below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses non-GAAP financial measures that it calls non-GAAP income (loss) per share (“non-GAAP income (loss) per share”) and adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Management presents non-GAAP income (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes these measures provide meaningful supplemental information about the Company’s performance for the following reasons: (1) they allow 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) they exclude 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; and (3) they are 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.

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. Non-GAAP income (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to GAAP income (loss), GAAP income (loss) per share or any other GAAP measure as an indicator of operating performance. Moreover, because not all companies use identical measures and calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP income (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Non-GAAP Income (Loss) Per Share

Non-GAAP income (loss) per share, which the Company presents as a non-GAAP measure of its performance, is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Clean Energy Fuels Corp., plus Amazon warrant charges, plus stock-based compensation expense, plus (minus) loss (income) from Rimere equity method investment, plus (minus) loss (income) from the SAFE&CEC S.r.l. equity method investment, and plus (minus) any loss (gain) from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, the total of which is divided by the Company’s weighted-average common shares outstanding on a diluted basis. The Company’s management believes excluding non-cash expenses related to the Amazon warrant charges provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s performance because the Amazon warrant charges are measured based upon a fair value determined using a variety of assumptions and estimates, and the Amazon warrant charges do not affect the Company’s operating cash flows related to the delivery and sale of vehicle fuel to its customer. The Company’s management believes excluding non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s performance because of the varying available valuation methodologies, the volatility of the expense (which depends on market forces outside of management’s control), the subjectivity of the assumptions and the variety of award types that a company can use, which may obscure trends in a company’s core operating performance. In addition, the Company believes excluding the results from the Rimere equity method investment is useful to investors because Rimere is an investment belonging to the non-core operations of the Company, and its results are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations. Similarly, the Company believes excluding the non-cash results from the SAFE&CEC S.r.l. equity method investment is useful to investors because these charges are not part of or representative of the core operations of the Company. In addition, the Company’s management believes excluding the non-cash loss (gain) from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments is useful to investors because the valuation of the derivative instruments is based on a number of subjective assumptions, the amount of the loss or gain is derived from market forces outside of management’s control, and the exclusion of these amounts enables investors to compare the Company’s performance with other companies that do not use, or use different forms of, derivative instruments.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company presents as a non-GAAP measure of its performance, is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Clean Energy Fuels Corp., plus (minus) income tax expense (benefit), plus interest expense (including any losses from the extinguishment of debt), minus interest income, plus depreciation and amortization expense, plus Amazon warrant charges, plus stock-based compensation expense, plus (minus) loss (income) from the Rimere equity method investment, plus (minus) loss (income) from the SAFE&CEC S.r.l. equity method investment, plus (minus) any loss (gain) from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, plus depreciation and amortization expense from RNG equity method investments, plus interest expense from RNG equity method investments, and minus interest income from RNG equity method investments. The Company’s management believes Adjusted

6


EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s performance for the same reasons discussed above with respect to non-GAAP income (loss) per share. In addition, management internally uses Adjusted EBITDA to determine elements of executive and employee compensation.
