Darlene Webb, Investor Relations Thank you very much, operator, and good morning everyone. On today's call, we'll be discussing Energia's earnings for the first quarter of 2026, which ended March 31, 2026. If you're following along with our slide deck, which is available here or on our live streaming webcast, or you can also access it here directly from the investors section of our website. My comments relate specifically to slides one through three.

On slide two, you'll see that on today's call, I am joined by Mr. Assaf, Energia's Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Greg Wolf, Energia's Chief Financial Officer, and Dr. Yaniv Sherson, Energia's Chief Operating Officer.

Before beginning our formal remarks, we would like to refer you to slide 3 of the presentation which contains a caution on forward-looking information and a note on the use of non-GAAP measures. Listeners are reminded, as always, that today's discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect current views with respect to future events. Any such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Energia does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements except as may be required by applicable laws.

Listeners are urged to review the full discussion of risk factors in the company's prospectus that is filed with the Canadian securities regulators. You may now move on to slide four and with that, turn the call over to Assaf. Assaf (Chief Executive Officer) Thank you, Darlene. Good morning, everyone.

Thank you for joining us. We are now on slide five. I want to start with where Energia stands at the close of the first quarter. Almost two years ago, we shifted the company to a capital-light business model.

The model is built on a clear set of execution pillars: a focus on capital sales, a stronger balance sheet, operational efficiency, strategic partnerships, and geographic expansions. In the first quarter of 2026, every one of those pillars is delivering. We are now on slide 6. Total revenue grew 122% year over year.

Gross profit grew 135%. Adjusted EBITDA was positive for the third consecutive quarter and revenue backlog stood at $265 million. Greg will walk you through the financial detail. Two items in Q1 marked important milestones for the company.

We are now on slide 7. First, we entered the hydro-treated vegetable oil market, a new vertical for Energia. HVO is renewable diesel made from waste oils and fats, and the potential is significant. Second, our SoCal biomethane facility was approved as the first project to deliver under California SB 1440, the state long-term Regulated Procurement Program.

Yaniv will take you through both of these developments along with the rest of the operation. The broader environment is moving in our favor. We are now on slide 8. Demand for renewable natural gas is expanding across our key geographies as energy security becomes a dominant policy theme in Europe, North America, and Asia.

That demand is coming from large private investors, corporate developers, and utilities in our largest markets, and regulators are reinforcing it with long-term progress. Next slide. What sets Energia apart is our depth of intellectual property and experience, hundreds of active and pending patents, and hundreds of reference facilities across 18 countries. Capital-light, IP-rich, backed by long-term demand.

That is Energia. Today, after Greg and Yaniv have completed their sections, I will return to discuss what comes next. Greg, over to you. Greg Wolf, Chief Financial Officer Thank you, Assaf.

Good morning everyone. We are excited to report another quarter of continuous progress. As Assaf mentioned, Q1 was our third consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA. Let me take you through our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

9 million in Q1 2025. Growth was led by our capital sales business with continued strong performance from EMEA and North America where we are seeing consistent demand and repeat business. Gro
