(NASDAQ:SAFX) ("XCF" or the "Company"), a U.S.-based producer of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel, today announced that it hosted representatives from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) at its New Rise Renewables facility in Reno, Nevada.

The facility's development was financed in part through a loan guaranteed by USDA under the Biorefinery, Renewable Chemical, and Biobased Product Manufacturing Assistance Program.

"Restarting production was an important milestone, and we're now seeing that progress translate into tangible results," said Chief Executive Officer Chris Cooper.

"The facility is producing renewable diesel, delivering product to customers and creating new uses for agricultural waste products. Our focus now is on consistent operations and building on that foundation as we grow domestic renewable fuel production."

During the visit, USDA representatives toured the facility and met with XCF Global leadership to discuss operational progress, the facility's development, and the Company's growth plans.

New Rise Renewables Reno, which has a permitted nameplate production capacity of up to 40 million gallons annually, resumed renewable diesel production in July 2026 and has produced over 4.4 million gallons since the restart, including a 45-day consecutive days of production.

The facility has also advanced commercial sales and end markets.

The New Rise Renewables Reno facility is central to XCF Global's strategy to strengthen U.S. energy security and resilience.

The facility supports this strategy by expanding domestic renewable fuel production and creating additional uses for agricultural waste products.

Building on its operating experience and the progress in Reno, the Company continues to evaluate additional development opportunities for modular, scalable renewable fuel production located near feedstock and demand.

"Hosting USDA gave us a chance to show what this facility is doing today and how far it has come," said President & Chief Financial Officer Wray Thorn.

"We remain focused on disciplined operations, steady production and strengthening the Company's financial position. We look forward to working with the USDA on future development opportunities as XCF looks to fuel the future through clean fuels made in America by US farmers."
