1. Nature of Activities and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Activities. Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Cupertino, California, Aemetis, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis referred to herein as “Aemetis,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is an international renewable natural gas and renewable fuels company focused on the acquisition, development and commercialization of innovative negative carbon intensity products and technologies that replace traditional petroleum-based products. We operate in three reportable segments consisting of “California Ethanol,” “California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas,” and “India Biodiesel.” We have other operating segments determined not to be reportable segments and are collectively represented by the “All Other” category. At Aemetis, our mission is to generate sustainable and innovative renewable fuel solutions that benefit communities and restore our environment. We do this by building a local circular bioeconomy utilizing agricultural waste to produce low carbon, advanced renewable fuels that reduce greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions and improve air quality by replacing traditional petroleum-based products.

Our California Ethanol segment consists of a 65 million gallon per year capacity ethanol production facility located in Keyes, California (the “Keyes Plant”) that we own and operate. In addition to low carbon renewable fuel ethanol, the Keyes Plant produces Wet Distillers Grains (“WDG”), Distillers Corn Oil (“DCO”), Carbon Dioxide (“CO₂”) and Condensed Distillers Solubles (“CDS”), all of which are sold as animal feed to local dairies and feedlots, with CO₂ sold to food, beverage, and industrial customers. We have several energy efficiency initiatives focused on significantly lowering the carbon intensity of our fuels. In the third quarter of 2022, we completed installation of a ZEBREXTM ethanol dehydration system and began commissioning the system, a key first step in the electrification of the Keyes Plant, which will significantly reduce the use of petroleum-based natural gas as process energy. During the last two weeks of December 2022, we undertook an extended maintenance cycle and accelerated the implementation of several important ethanol plant energy efficiency upgrades noted above. Our decision was partly driven by the high natural gas prices in Northern California during the period. Furthermore, after monitoring natural gas pricing and margin profitability, we decided to extend the maintenance cycle into the second quarter of 2023. With natural gas pricing in a reasonable range and the maintenance turn-around complete, we restarted operation of the Keyes Plant in the second quarter of 2023.

Our California Dairy Renewable Natural segment, which consists of our subsidiary Aemetis Biogas LLC and its subsidiaries, ("Aemetis Biogas" or "ABGL"), constructs and operates bio-methane anaerobic digesters at local dairies near the Keyes Plant (many of whom also purchase WDG produced by the Keyes Plant as animal feed); transports the biogas via pipeline to the Keyes Plant site; and converts the biogas to Renewable Natural Gas (“RNG”) which is then delivered to customers through the PG&E natural gas pipeline. The Aemetis Biogas network includes the Aemetis Biogas Central Dairy Project which operates 40 miles of completed biogas pipeline; seven operating dairy digesters; four dairy digesters that are under construction; a centralized biogas-to-RNG conversion facility located at the Keyes Plant site; and a renewable natural gas interconnection with the PG&E utility gas pipeline.

The dairy digesters are connected via an underground private pipeline owned by ABGL to a gas cleanup and compression unit at the Keyes Plant to produce dairy RNG. Upon receiving the bio-methane from the dairies, impurities are removed, and the bio-methane is converted to negative carbon intensity RNG that is injected into the statewide PG&E gas utility pipeline for use as transportation fuel or used as renewable process energy at the Keyes Plant.

Our India Biodiesel segment owns and operates a plant in Kakinada, India (“Kakinada Plant”) with a nameplate capacity of 150 thousand metric tons per year, or about 50 million gallons per year, producing high quality distilled biodiesel and refined glycerin for customers in India and Europe. We believe the Kakinada Plant is one of the largest biodiesel production facilities in India on a nameplate capacity basis. The Kakinada Plant is capable of processing a variety of vegetable oils and animal fat waste feedstocks into biodiesel that meets international product standards. Our Kakinada Plant can also distill the crude glycerin byproduct from the biodiesel refining process into refined glycerin, which is sold to the pharmaceutical, personal care, paint, adhesive, and other industries. During the second quarter of 2023, Kakinada Plant fulfilled a tender offer of $34.0 million worth of biodiesel, of which $32.8 million was recognized as revenue while the remainder is in transit for delivery as of June 30, 2023. In July 2023, Kakinada Plant was awarded a new initial tender offer to ship $20.0 million worth of biodiesel in the third quarter of 2023.

Our All Other segment consists of: our Carbon Zero biofuels production plants to produce renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel; Carbon Capture and Sequestration compression system and injection wells; a research and development facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota; and our corporate offices in Cupertino, California.

Table of Contents

Our Carbon Zero biofuels production plants are designed to produce low or negative carbon intensity sustainable aviation fuel (“SAF”) and renewable diesel fuel (“RD”) utilizing low carbon hydroelectric electricity, renewable hydrogen and non-edible renewable oils sourced from existing Aemetis biofuels plants and other sources. The first Carbon Zero plant is scheduled to be built in Riverbank, California at the 125-acre former Riverbank Army ammunition plant. The Riverbank plant is expected to utilize zero carbon hydroelectric and other renewable power available onsite to produce SAF, RD, and other byproducts.

Our Carbon Capture subsidiary was established to build Carbon Capture and Sequestration (“CCS”) projects that generate LCFS and IRS 45Q tax credits by compressing and injecting CO₂ into deep wells which are monitored for emissions to ensure the long-term sequestration of carbon underground. In July 2022, Aemetis purchased 24 acres located on the Riverbank Industrial Complex site in Riverbank, California to develop a CCS injection well.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aemetis. Additionally, we consolidate all entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest is usually obtained through ownership of a majority of the voting interests. However, an enterprise must consolidate a variable interest entity (“VIE”) if the enterprise is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, even if the enterprise does not own a majority of the voting interests. The primary beneficiary is the party that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. ABGL was assessed to be a VIE and through the Company’s ownership interest in all of the outstanding common stock, the Company has been determined to be the primary beneficiary and accordingly, the assets, liabilities, and operations of ABGL are consolidated into those of the Company.

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated condensed statements of stockholders’ deficit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. The consolidated condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, was derived from the 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. The consolidated condensed financial statements in this report should be read in conjunction with the 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

In the opinion of Company’s management, the unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 and reflect all adjustments, consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of its statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any subsequent quarter, for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, revenues, and expenses during the reporting period. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s consolidated financial statements will be affected.

Revenue Recognition. We derive revenue primarily from sales of ethanol and related co-products in North America, and biodiesel and refined glycerin in India pursuant to supply agreements and purchase order contracts. We assessed the following criteria under the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 guidance: (i) identify the contracts with customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies the performance obligations.

California Ethanol Revenues: On May 13, 2020, we entered into an amendment to the Corn Procurement and Working Capital Agreement with J.D. Heiskell (the “Corn Procurement and Working Capital”), pursuant to which we buy all corn from J.D. Heiskell and sell all WDG and corn oil we produce to J.D. Heiskell. Effective October 1, 2021, we entered into Fuel Ethanol Purchase and Sale Agreement with Murex LLC (“Murex”), in which we sell all our ethanol to Murex through individual sales transactions. On May 25, 2023, we entered into the second amendment to the Aemetis Keyes Grain Procurement and Working Capital Agreement with J.D. Heiskell, the second amendment to the Corn Procurement and Working Capital Agreement with J.D. Heiskell, and the second amendment to the Keyes Ethanol and Corn Tank Lease with J.D. Heiskell. The amendments provide that (i) the Keyes Plant will receive a temporary increase to its working capital credit limit by an amount equal to four days of grain payables repayable in equal daily installments over 120 days, (ii) that J.D. Heiskell agrees to buy all Ethanol, WDG, CDS, and Corn Oil produced by the Keyes Plant, sell all ethanol to certain designated purchasers and pay us the same price as it received from such sales, and (iii) J.D. Heiskell would lease certain ethanol product storage tanks from the Keyes Plant. Given the similarity of the individual sales transactions with J.D. Heiskell, we have assessed them as a portfolio of similar contracts. Prior to May 25, 2023, the performance obligation was satisfied by delivery of the physical product from our finished goods tank to our customer’s contracted trucks. Effective on May 25, 2023, the performance obligation is satisfied by delivery of the physical product to the finished goods tank leased by J.D. Heiskell. Upon delivery, the customer has the ability to direct the use of the product and receive substantially all of its benefits. The transaction price is determined based on daily market prices negotiated by Murex for ethanol and by our marketing partner A.L. Gilbert Company (“A.L. Gilbert”) for WDG. The transaction price is allocated to one performance obligation.

The below table shows our sales in our California Ethanol segment by product category:

|  | For the three months ended June 30, |  |  | For the six months ended June 30, |
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Ethanol sales |  | $ | 8,647 |  |  | $ | 47,656 |  |  | $ | 9,015 |  |  | $ | 85,551 |
Wet distiller's grains sales |  |  | 2,553 |  |  |  | 15,150 |  |  |  | 2,553 |  |  |  | 26,666 |
Other sales |  |  | 132 |  |  |  | 3,085 |  |  |  | 239 |  |  |  | 5,715 |
|  | $ | 11,332 |  |  | $ | 65,891 |  |  | $ | 11,807 |  |  | $ | 117,932 |

We have elected to adopt the practical expedient that allows for ignoring the significant financing component of a contract when estimating the transaction price when the transfer of promised goods to the customer and customer payment for such goods are expected to be within one year of contract inception. Further, we have elected to adopt the practical expedient in which incremental costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when the amortization period would otherwise be less than one year.

We also assessed principal versus agent criteria as we buy our feedstock from our customers and process and sell finished goods to those customers in some contractual agreements. We analyzed the principal versus agent relationship criteria below.

We buy corn as feedstock in producing ethanol from our working capital partner J.D. Heiskell and we sell all ethanol, WDG, CDO, and CDS produced in this process to J.D. Heiskell. Our ethanol finished goods tank is leased by J.D. Heiskell and legal title to the product is transferred upon transfer of our finished ethanol to this location. We consider the purchase of corn as a cost of goods sold and consider the sale of ethanol as revenue upon transfer to the finished goods tank and consider the sale of WDG, CDO, and CDS as revenue, upon trucks leaving the Keyes Plant with the product, on the basis that (i) we control and bear the risk of gain or loss on the processing of corn which is purchased at market prices into ethanol and (ii) we have legal title to the goods during the processing time. The pricing for ethanol, WDG, CDO, and CDS is set independently. Revenues from ethanol and WDG are billed net of the related transportation and marketing charges. The transportation component is accounted for in cost of goods sold and the marketing component is accounted for in sales, general and administrative expense. Transportation and marketing charges are known within days of the transaction and are recorded at the actual amounts. We have elected an accounting policy under which these charges have been treated as fulfillment activities provided after control has transferred. As a result, these charges are recognized in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, when revenue is recognized. Revenues are recorded at the gross invoiced amount. Hence, we are the principal in California Ethanol segment where our customer and vendor may be the same.

California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas Revenues: In December 2018, we utilized our relationships with California’s Central Valley dairy farmers by signing leases and raising funds to construct dairy digesters, a 40 mile pipeline, a centralized biogas cleanup and a renewable natural gas interconnection with PG&E pipeline. We are currently producing RNG from seven digesters connected to 40 miles of pipeline, then flowing this gas to our RNG cleanup hub and delivering the gas through an interconnect to the PG&E pipeline at the Keyes Plant. The RNG upgrade unit at the Keyes Plant is designed to deliver utility-grade RNG for sale as transportation fuel to California customers via pipeline delivery.

We have 34 signed agreements with dairies to construct dairy digesters. Our revenue development strategy for the Dairy Renewable Natural Gas segment relies upon continuing to collect bio-methane gas from the existing dairy digesters, continuing to build out the network of dairy digesters, extending the pipeline in Northern California to grow the supply of RNG available for sale and utilizing the biogas-to-RNG upgrade unit to distribute utility-grade RNG to customers statewide. We plan to store the RNG until the LCFS credit pathway for each dairy has been established, after which we will sell the stored gas by delivering it into the utility gas pipeline. As of June 30, 2023, we have 86.7 thousand MMBtu of RNG in storage. The RNG in storage is recorded at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The value per LCFS as of June 30, 2023 was $76 per metric ton and the value per D3 Cellulosic RIN was $2.80; for an estimated market value $68.22 per MMBtu, assuming a CI score of - 415.

India Biodiesel Revenues: We sell products pursuant to purchase orders (written or verbal) or by contract with governmental or international parties, in which performance is satisfied by delivery and acceptance of the physical product. Given that the contracts are sufficiently similar in nature, we have assessed these contracts as a portfolio of similar contracts as allowed under the practical expedient. Doing so does not result in a materially different outcome compared to individually accounting for each contract. All domestic and international deliveries are subject to certain specifications as identified in contracts. The transaction price is determined daily based on reference market prices for biodiesel, refined glycerin, and PFAD, net of taxes. Transaction price is allocated to one performance obligation.

The below table shows our sales in our India Biodiesel segment by product category:

|  | For the three months ended June 30, |  |  | For the six months ended June 30, |
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Biodiesel sales |  | $ | 32,811 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 34,001 |  |  | $ | - |
Other sales |  |  | 759 |  |  |  | 10 |  |  |  | 1,039 |  |  |  | 18 |
|  | $ | 33,570 |  |  | $ | 10 |  |  | $ | 35,040 |  |  | $ | 18 |

In India, we also assessed principal versus agent criteria as we buy our feedstock from our customers and process and sell finished goods to those same customers in certain contractual agreements. In those cases, we receive the legal title to feedstock from our customers once it is on our premises. We control the processing and production of biodiesel based on contract terms and specifications. The pricing for both feedstock and biodiesel is set independently. We hold the title and risk to biodiesel according to agreements when we enter into these situations. Hence, we are the principal in India sales scenarios where our customer and vendor may be the same.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold includes those costs directly associated with the production of revenues, such as raw material consumed, factory overhead and other direct production costs. During periods of idle plant capacity, costs otherwise charged to cost of goods sold are reclassified to selling, general and administrative expense.

Shipping and Handling Costs. Shipping and handling costs are classified as a component of cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Research and Development. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, unless they have alternative future uses to the Company.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions domestically and abroad. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures domestic cash accounts. The Company’s accounts at these institutions may at times exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Amounts included in restricted cash represent those required to be set aside by the Construction Loan Agreement with Greater Nevada Credit Union ("GNCU") for financing reserves and construction contingencies and will be released upon approval by GNCU. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheet to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statement of cash flows.

|  | As of |
|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 3,494 |  |  | $ | 4,313 |
Restricted cash included in other current assets |  |  | 10 |  |  |  | 725 |
Restricted cash included in other assets |  |  | 1,961 |  |  |  | 1,961 |
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the statement of cash flows |  | $ | 5,465 |  |  | $ | 6,999 |

Accounts Receivable. The Company sells ethanol and WDG through third-party marketing arrangements generally without requiring collateral directly to customers on a variety of terms including advanced payment terms, based on the size and creditworthiness of the customer. DCO is marketed and sold to A.L. Gilbert and other customers under the J.D. Heiskell Purchasing Agreement. The Company sells CDS directly to customers on standard 30-day payment terms. The Company sells biodiesel, glycerin, and processed natural oils to a variety of customers and may require advanced payment based on the size and creditworthiness of the customer. Usually, invoices are due within 30 days on net terms. Accounts receivables consist of product sales made to large creditworthy customers. Trade accounts receivable are presented at original invoice amount, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts. We did not reserve any balance for allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Table of Contents

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for balances that appear to have specific collection issues. The collection process is based on the age of the invoice and requires attempted contacts with the customer at specified intervals. If, after a specified number of days, the Company has been unsuccessful in its collection efforts, a bad debt allowance is recorded for the balance in question. Delinquent accounts receivables are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once un-collectability has been determined. The factors considered in reaching this determination are the apparent financial condition of the customer and the Company’s success in contacting and negotiating with the customer. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required.

Inventories. Finished goods, raw materials, and work-in-process inventories are valued using methods which approximate the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value (“NRV”). Distillers’ grains and related products are stated at NRV. In the valuation of inventories, NRV is determined as estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.

Variable Interest Entities. We determine at the inception of each arrangement whether an entity in which we have made an investment or in which we have other variable interests in is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We consolidate VIEs when we are the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the party that meets both of the following criteria: (1) has the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE; and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that in either case could potentially be significant to the VIE. Periodically, we assess whether any changes in our interest or relationship with the entity affects our determination of whether the entity is still a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. If we are not the primary beneficiary in a VIE, we account for the investment or other variable interests in a VIE in accordance with applicable U.S. GAAP.

Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation after assets are placed in service and are comprised primarily of plant and buildings, furniture, machinery, equipment, land, and biogas dairy digesters. Capital expenses for in-process project are accumulated in construction in progress and will be capitalized and depreciated once the capital projects are finished and are in service. The Company’s plant in Goodland, Kansas (the "Goodland Plant") is partially completed and is not ready for operation. It is the Company’s policy to depreciate capital assets over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets with finite lives in accordance with ASC Subtopic 360-10-35 Property Plant and Equipment—Subsequent Measurements, which requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable, based on estimated undiscounted cash flows, the impairment loss would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and its estimated fair value. The Company has not recorded any impairment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

California Energy Commission Low-Carbon Fuel Production Program. The Company has been awarded $4.2 million in matching grants from the California Energy Commission Low-Carbon Fuel Production Program (“LCFPP”). The LCFPP grant reimburses the Company for costs to design, procure, and install a processing facility to clean-up, measure and verify negative-carbon intensity dairy renewable natural gas fuel at the production facility in Keyes, California. The Company has received $3.8 million from the LCFPP as of June 30, 2023, as reimbursement for actual costs incurred. Due to the uncertainty associated with the approval process under the grant program, the Company recognized the grant as a reduction of costs in the period when payment is received.

In October 2020, the Company was awarded $7.8 million in matching grants from the CDFA Dairy Digester Research and Development program. The CDFA grant reimburses the Company for costs required to permit and construct six of the Company’s biogas capture systems under contract with central California dairies. The Company has received $4.4 million from the CDFA 2020 grant program as of June 30, 2023, as reimbursement for actual costs incurred. Due to the uncertainty associated with the approval process under the grant program, the Company recognized the grant as a reduction of costs in the period when payment is received.

The Company receives funds under the CEC Reimbursement Program for actual expenses incurred up to $5.0 million as long as the Company makes the minimum matching contribution. Given that the Company has not made the minimum matching contribution, the grant for reimbursement of capital expenditures of $1.7 million is presented with long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Due to the uncertainty associated with meeting the minimum matching contribution, the reimbursement will be recognized when the Company makes the minimum matching contribution.

U.S. Department of Food and Agriculture Forest Service Grant. Aemetis Advanced Products Keyes (“AAPK”) has been awarded $245 thousand in matching grants from the U.S. Department of Food and Agriculture Forest Service (“US Forest Service”) under the Wood Innovation and Community Wood program.

After three months of renewable natural gas delivery, the interconnection verification process was completed and the CEC PG&E program funds were released. The Company has received all $5 million available from the PG&E program as reimbursement for actual costs incurred as of March 31, 2023. Given the nature of funds received as reimbursement for actual costs incurred, the funds were applied against the actual costs.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share reflects the dilution of common stock equivalents such as options, convertible preferred stock, debt, and warrants to the extent the impact is dilutive. As the Company incurred net losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the diluted net loss per share computations as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

The following table shows the number of potentially dilutive shares excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation as of June 30, 2023 and 2022:

|  | As of |
|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | June 30, 2022 |
Series B preferred (post split basis) |  |  | 126 |  |  |  | 127 |
Common stock options and warrants |  |  | 6,107 |  |  |  | 4,748 |
Debt with conversion feature at $30 per share of common stock |  |  | 1,251 |  |  |  | 1,228 |
Total number of potentially dilutive shares excluded from the diluted net (loss) per share calculation |  |  | 7,484 |  |  |  | 6,103 |

Comprehensive Income (Loss). ASC 220 Comprehensive Income (Loss) requires that an enterprise report, by major components and as a single total, the change in its net assets from non-owner sources. The Company’s other comprehensive loss and accumulated other comprehensive loss consists solely of cumulative currency translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements of its foreign subsidiary. The investment in this subsidiary is considered indefinitely invested overseas, and as a result, deferred income taxes are not recorded related to the currency translation adjustments.

Foreign Currency Translation/Transactions. Assets and liabilities of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiary that operates in a local currency environment, where that local currency is the functional currency, are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and the resulting translation adjustments directly recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Income and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates during the year. Transactional gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are recorded in other income.

Segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company further evaluates its operating segments to determine its reportable segments. Aemetis recognizes three reportable segments “California Ethanol”, “California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas”, and “India Biodiesel.”

The “California Ethanol” reportable segment includes the Company’s 65 million gallon per year Keyes Plant and the adjacent land leased for the production of CO₂.

The “California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas” reportable segment includes the dairy digesters, pipeline and gas condition hub for the production of biogas from dairies near Keyes, California.

The “India Biodiesel” reportable segment includes the Company’s 50 million gallon per year nameplate capacity biodiesel manufacturing Kakinada Plant, the administrative offices in Hyderabad, India, and the holding companies in Nevada and Mauritius. The Company’s biodiesel is marketed and sold primarily to customers in India through brokers and by the Company directly.

The Company has additional operating segments that were determined not to be reportable segments, including the Carbon Zero biofuels production plants to produce renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel; the Carbon Capture and Sequestration compression system and injection wells; a research and development facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota; and our corporate offices in Cupertino, California.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Financial instruments include accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, current and non-current portion of subordinated debt, notes receivable, notes payable, Series A preferred units, and long-term debt. Due to the unique terms of our notes payable and long-term debt and the financial condition of the Company, the fair value of the debt is not readily determinable. The fair value determined using level 3 inputs, of all other current financial instruments is estimated to approximate carrying value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Share-Based Compensation. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense in accordance with ASC 718 Stock Compensation requiring the Company to recognize expenses related to the estimated fair value of the Company’s share-based compensation awards at the time the awards are granted, adjusted to reflect only those shares that are expected to vest.

Commitments and Contingencies. The Company records and/or discloses commitments and contingencies in accordance with ASC 450 Contingencies. ASC 450 applies to an existing condition, situation or set of circumstances involving uncertainty as to possible loss that will ultimately be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur.

Convertible Instruments. The Company evaluates the impacts of convertible instruments based on the underlying conversion features. Convertible instruments are evaluated for treatment as derivatives that could be bifurcated and recorded separately. Any beneficial conversion feature is recorded based on the intrinsic value difference at the commitment date.

Debt Modification Accounting. The Company evaluates amendments to its debt in accordance with ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring and ASC 470-50 Debt–Modification and Extinguishments for modification and extinguishment accounting. The evaluation for troubled debt restructuring includes assessing qualitative and quantitative factors such as whether the creditor granted a concession and if the Company is experiencing financial difficulties. The quantitative analysis includes the calculation of the post-restructuring effective interest rate by projecting cash flows on the new terms comparing this calculation to the terms of prior amendments. If the post restructuring effective interest rate is less than the prior terms effective interest rate, we assess this as having been granted a concession. The troubled debt restructuring accounting would be applied to any debt which meets the qualitative factors and quantitative factor of concession granted. If the debt would not fall into Troubled Debt Restructuring then we apply ASC 470-50 Debt-Modification and Extinguishment. This evaluation includes comparing the net present value of cash flows of the new debt to the old debt to determine if changes greater than 10 percent occurred. In instances where the net present value of future cash flows changed more than 10 percent, the Company applies extinguishment accounting and determines the fair value of its debt based on factors available to the Company.

For a complete summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies, please refer to the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2023.

We evaluated the terms of Amendment No. 26 and the maturity date extension in accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt – Modification and Extinguishment and ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring and applied modification accounting treatment.

On May 16, 2023, Third Eye Capital agreed to the Limited Waiver and Amendment No. 27 to the Note Purchase Agreement (“Amendment No. 27”) to: (i) provide that the maturity date of the Third Eye Capital Notes may be further extended at our election to April 1, 2025 in exchange for an extension fee equal to 1% of the Note Indebtedness in respect to each Note, provided that such fee may be added to the outstanding principal balance of each Note on the effective date of each such extension, (ii) create a new series of Revolving Notes ("Revolving Notes Series B"), and (iii) provide for the issuance of new Revolving Notes Series B to provide for emergency funding. As consideration for such waivers, the borrowers also agreed to pay Third Eye Capital an amendment fee of $0.5 million, by adding the balance to the Revolving Notes Series B and issued a warrant exercisable for 80,000 shares of the Company's common stock were issued with an exercise price of $2.00 per each share issuable under the warrant. We evaluated the terms of Amendment No. 27 in accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt – Modification and Extinguishment and ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring and applied modification accounting treatment.

According to ASC 470-10-45 Debt–Other Presentation Matters, if it is probable that the Company will not be able to cure the default at measurement dates within the next 12 months, the related debt needs to be classified as current. To assess this guidance, the Company performed ratio and cash flow analysis using its cash flow forecast and debt levels for plant to debt ratio covenant and obtained waivers for the minimum ethanol production covenant for Q1’23 and Q2'23 in Amendments No. 25 and No. 26. The Company forecasted sufficient cash flows over the next 12 months to reduce debt levels of Third Eye Capital and meet the operations of the Company. Based on this analysis, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that through a combination of cash flows from operations, sales from EB-5 investments, and proceeds from the sale of common stock, it will be able to meet the ratio of the note indebtedness covenant over the next 12 months. As such, the notes are classified as long-term debt.

On March 6, 2020, we and a subsidiary entered into a one-year reserve liquidity facility governed by a promissory note, payable to Third Eye Capital, in the principal amount of $18 million. On March 14, 2021, Third Eye Capital agreed to increase the amount available under the reserve liquidity facility to $70.0 million. Interest on borrowed amounts accrues at a rate of 30% per annum, paid monthly in arrears and may be capitalized and due upon maturity, or 40% if an event of default has occurred and continues. The outstanding principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced by the promissory note, plus any accrued but unpaid interest and any other sums due thereunder, shall be due and payable in full at the earlier to occur of (a) receipt by the Company or its affiliates of proceeds from any sale, merger, equity or debt financing, refinancing or other similar transaction from any third party and (b) April 1, 2023. Any amounts may be re-borrowed up to repaid amounts up until the maturity date of April 1, 2023. The promissory note is secured by liens and security interests upon the property and assets of the Company. In return, the Company will pay a non-refundable standby fee at 2% per annum of the difference between the aggregate principal amount outstanding and the commitment, payable monthly in cash. In addition, if any initial advances are drawn under the facility, the Company will pay a non-refundable one-time fee in the amount of $0.5 million provided that such fee may be added to the principal amount of the promissory note on the date of such initial advance. On August 9, 2021, Third Eye Capital agreed to decrease the amount available under the reserve liquidity notes governed by a promissory note to $40.0 million. On March 6, 2023, Third Eye Capital agreed to increase the reserve liquidity facility to $50 million and extend this for one year to April 1, 2024.

As of June 30, 2023, Aemetis Facility Keyes, Inc. had $26.9 million in principal and interest and redemption fees outstanding under the Acquisition Term Notes and $260 thousand unamortized debt issuance costs.

F. | Reserve Liquidity Notes. The Reserve Liquidity Notes, with available borrowing capacity in the amount of $50.0 million, accrues interest at the rate of 30% per annum and are due and payable upon the earlier of: (i) the closing of new debt or equity financings, (ii) receipt from any sale, merger, debt or equity financing, or (iii) April 1, 2024. We have no borrowings outstanding under the Reserve Liquidity Notes as of June 30, 2023.

*The note maturity date can be extended by the Company to April 2025. As a condition to any such extension, the Company would be required to pay a fee of 1% of the carrying value of the debt outstanding under the applicable notes of which 50% can be paid in cash or common stock (if paid through common stock it would be equivalent to 110% of the relevant half of such extension fee) and 50% can be added to the outstanding debt. As a result of this ability to extend the maturity at the Company’s will, the Third Eye Capital Notes are classified as non-current debt.

The Third Eye Capital Notes contain various covenants, including but not limited to, debt to plant value ratio, minimum production requirements, and restrictions on capital expenditures. The terms of the Third Eye Capital Notes allow the lender to accelerate the maturity in the occurrence of any event that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company, such as any change in the business, operations, or financial condition. The Company has evaluated the likelihood of such an acceleration event and determined such an event to not be probable in the next twelve months. The terms of the notes allow interest to be capitalized.

The Third Eye Capital Notes are secured by first priority liens on all real and personal property of, and assignment of proceeds from all government grants and guarantees from the Company’s North American subsidiaries. The Third Eye Capital Notes all contain cross-collateral and cross-default provisions. McAfee Capital, LLC (“McAfee Capital”), owned by Eric McAfee, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, provided a guaranty of payment and performance secured by all of its Company shares. In addition, Eric McAfee provided a blanket lien on substantially all of his personal assets, and McAfee Capital provided a guarantee in the amount of $8.0 million.

In addition, under the Fuels Revolving Line, we issued 100,000 shares of common stock to existing note holders under the GAFI note purchase agreement. The shares were accounted at fair value and are being amortized over the life of the Fuels Revolving Line. Upon closing of the New Credit Facility, the Company drew on the revolving lines to repay $16.0 million on the higher interest rate AAFK Revolving Credit Facility, $6.1 million in property taxes, and to fund the capital projects and working capital projects.

As of June 30, 2023, Aemetis Facility Keyes, Inc. had $6.9 million in principal and interest outstanding under the Cilion shareholder seller notes payable.

Subordinated Notes. On January 6 and January 9, 2012, AAFK entered into Note and Warrant Purchase Agreements with two accredited investors pursuant to which it issued $0.9 million and $2.5 million in original notes to the investors (“Subordinated Notes”). The Subordinated Notes mature every six months. Upon maturity, the Subordinated Notes are renewable at the Company's election for six month periods with a fee of 10% added to the balance outstanding plus issuance of warrants exercisable at $0.01 with a two-year term.

The Company evaluated the January 1, 2023 amendments and the refinancing terms of the notes and applied modification accounting treatment in accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt – Modification and Extinguishment.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had, in aggregate, the amount of $16.8 million and $15.9 million in principal and interest outstanding, respectively, under the Subordinated Notes.

EB-5 promissory notes. EB-5 is a U.S. government program authorized by the Immigration and Nationality Act designed to foster employment-based visa preference for immigrant investors to encourage the flow of capital into the U.S. economy and to promote employment of U.S. workers. The Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated March 4, 2011 (as further amended on January 19, 2012 and July 24, 2012) with Advanced BioEnergy, LP, a California limited partnership authorized as a “Regional Center” to receive EB-5 investments, for the issuance of up to 72 subordinated convertible promissory notes (the “EB-5 Notes”) bearing interest at 2-3%. Each note was issued in the principal amount of $0.5 million and due and payable four years from the date of each note, for a total aggregate principal amount of up to $36.0 million (the “EB-5 Phase I funding”). The original maturity date on the promissory notes can be extended automatically for a one- or two-year period initially and is eligible for further one-year automatic extensions as long as there is no notice of non-extension from investors and the investors’ immigration process is in progress. On February 27, 2019, Advanced BioEnergy, LP, and the Company entered into an Amendment to the EB-5 Notes which restated the original maturity date on the promissory notes with automatic six-month extensions as long as the investors’ immigration processes are in progress. Except for six early investor EB-5 Notes, the Company was granted 12 months from the date of the completion of immigration process to redeem these EB-5 Notes. Given the COVID-19 pandemic and processing delays for immigration process, Advanced BioEnergy, LP extended the maturity dates for debt repayment based on their projected processing timings as long as the investors do not give notice of withdrawal or an I-829 gets approved. Accordingly, the notes have been recognized as long-term debt while investor notes who obtained green card approval have been classified as current debt. The EB-5 Notes are convertible after three years at a conversion price of $30 per share.

The Company has sold an aggregate principal amount of $36.0 million of EB-5 Notes under the EB-5 Phase I funding since 2012 to the date of this filing. As of June 30, 2023, $35.5 million has been released from the escrow amount to the Company, with $0.5 million remaining to be funded to escrow. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $37.5 million and $37.2 million was outstanding, respectively, on the EB-5 Notes sold under the EB-5 Phase I funding.

On October 16, 2016, the Company launched its EB-5 Phase II funding (the “EB-5 Phase II Funding”), with plans to issue $50.0 million in additional EB-5 Notes on substantially similar terms and conditions as those issued under the Company’s EB-5 Phase I funding, to refinance indebtedness and capital expenditures of Aemetis, Inc. and Goodland Advanced Fuels Inc., (“GAFI”). On November 21, 2019, the minimum investment was raised from $0.5 million per investor to $0.9 million per investor. The Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated with Advanced BioEnergy II, LP, a California limited partnership authorized as a Regional Center to receive EB-5 Phase II funding investments, for the issuance of up to 100 EB-5 Notes bearing interest at 3%. On May 1, 2020 Supplement No. 3 amended the offering documents and lowered the total eligible new EB-5 Phase II funding investors to 60. Eight EB-5 investors have funded at the $0.5 million per investor amount, with 52 new EB-5 Phase II funding investors remaining eligible at the new $0.9 million per investors amount under the current offering. Job creation studies show it may be possible to add additional investors and increase the total offering amount in the future. Each EB-5 note will be issued in the principal amount and due and payable five years from the date of each EB-5 note, for a total aggregate principal amount of up to $50.8 million.

The Company has sold an aggregate principal amount of $4.0 million of EB-5 Notes under the EB-5 Phase II funding since 2016 to the date of this filing. As of June 30, 2023, $4.0 million has been released from escrow to the Company and $46.8 million remains to be funded to escrow. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, $4.3 million and $4.2 million were outstanding on the EB-5 Notes under the EB-5 Phase II funding, respectively.

Secured loans. In the first quarter of 2023, the Company entered into several short-term loans with IndusInd Bank and HDFC Bank. The loans are secured by fixed deposits made by the Company. The loans bear interest at rates that range from 6% to 8%. The loans mature between November 15, 2023 and May 3, 2024. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $0.7 million and no balance, respectively, under these agreements.

Construction Loan Agreement. On October 4, 2022, the Company entered into a Construction Loan Agreement (“Loan Agreement”) with Greater Nevada Credit Union (“GNCU”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the lender has made available an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $25 million. The loan is secured by all personal property collateral and real property collateral of the Aemetis Biogas 1 LLC. The loan bears interest at a rate of 5.95% per annum and has an USDA annual renewal fee of 0.25%, with interest only payments to be paid in monthly installments, and a maturity date of March 4, 2023, at which time the entire unpaid principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest, is expected to be repaid from the proceeds of a term loan this is 80% USDA guaranteed and issued by GNCU pursuant to a USDA Conditional Commitment. The Loan Agreement contains certain financial covenants to be measured as of the last day of each fiscal year beginning fiscal year end 2023, and annually for the term of the loan. The Loan Agreement also contains other affirmative and negative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default customary for loan agreements of this nature. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $22.7 million and $20.2 million, respectively, outstanding and unamortized discount issuances costs of none and $0.3 million, respectively, under the Loan Agreement.

On March 4, 2023, GNCU extended the maturity date of the Loan Agreement to August 1, 2023 and increase the interest rate to 9.0%. As consideration for the amendment, the borrowers agreed to pay GNCU a lenders fee and expenses of $9 thousand. We analyzed the agreement according to ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring and we determined that GNCU provided a concession when comparing the initial credit agreement with a lower interest rate and higher fees to the new debt amendment with a higher interest rate and lower fees. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring, we applied troubled debt restructuring accounting, resulting in no gain or loss from the application of this accounting.

Financing Agreement for capital expenditures. The Company entered into an agreement with Mitsubishi Chemical America, Inc. (“Mitsubishi”) to purchase ZEBREXTM membrane dehydration equipment to conserve energy and improve operating efficiencies at the Keyes Plant. The Company also entered into a financing agreement with Mitsubishi for $5.7 million for this equipment. Payments pursuant to the financing transaction will commence after the installation date and interest will be charged based on the certain performance metrics after operation of the equipment. We recorded the asset in property, plant and equipment, net and recorded the related liability of $1.2 million in short term borrowings and $4.6 million in other long-term debt, respectively as of June 30, 2023.

Leases

We have identified assets as the corporate office, warehouse, monitoring equipment and laboratory facilities over which we have control and obtain economic benefits fully. We classified these identified assets as operating leases after assessing the terms under classification guidance. We have entered into several leases for trailers and carbon units with purchase option at the end of the term. We have concluded that it is reasonably certain that we would exercise the purchase option at the end of the term, hence the leases were classified as finance leases. All of our leases have remaining term of two years to fourteen years.

We made an accounting policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off of the balance sheet. We will recognize those lease payments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as we incur the expenses.

When discount rates implicit in leases cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the applicable incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to perform lease classification tests on lease components and measure lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company was based on weighted average baseline rates commensurate with the Company’s secured borrowing rate over a similar term. At each reporting period, when there is a new lease initiated, the rates established for that quarter will be used.

6. Aemetis Biogas LLC – Series A Preferred Financing and Variable Interest Entity

On December 20, 2018, ABGL entered into a Series A Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement for the sale of Series A Preferred Units to Protair-X Americas, Inc., with Third Eye Capital acting as an agent.

ABGL is authorized to issue 11,000,000 common units, and up to 6,000,000 convertible, redeemable, secured, preferred membership units (the “Series A Preferred Units”). ABGL issued 6,000,000 common units to the Company at $5.00 per common unit for a total of $30,000,000 in funding. Additionally, 5,000,000 common units of ABGL are held in reserve as potential conversion units issuable to the Purchaser upon certain triggering events discussed below.

The Preferred Unit Agreement includes (i) preference payments of $0.50 per unit on the outstanding Series A Preferred Units commencing on the second anniversary, with any outstanding preference payments shall have an interest per annum rate equal to ten percent (ii) conversion rights for up to 1,200,000 common units or up to maximum number of 5,000,000 common units (also at a one Series A Preferred Unit to one common unit basis) if certain triggering events occur, (iv) one board seat of the three available to be elected by Series A Preferred Unit holders, (iii) mandatory redemption value at $15 per unit payable at an amount equal to 75% of free cash flow generated by ABGL, up to $90 million in the aggregate (if all units are issued), (iv) full redemption of the units on the sixth anniversary, (v) minimum cash flow requirements from each digester, and (vi) $0.9 million paid as fees to the Agent from the proceeds. Until paid, the obligations of ABGL under the Preferred Unit Agreement are secured by the assets of ABGL in an amount not to exceed the sum of (i) $30,000,000, plus (ii) all interest, fees, charges, expenses, reimbursement obligations and indemnification obligations of ABGL.

Triggering events occur upon ABGL’s failure to redeem units, comply with covenants, any other defaults or cross defaults, or to perform representations or warranties. Upon a triggering event: (i) the obligation of the Purchaser to purchase additional Series A Preferred Units is terminated, (ii) cash flow payments for redemption payments increases from 75% to 100% of free cash flows, and (iii) total number of common units into which preferred units may be converted increases from 1,200,000 common units to 5,000,000 common units on a one for one basis. As of June 30, 2023, ABGL has not generated minimum quarterly operating cash flows by operating the dairies. As a result of the violation of this covenant, free cash flows, when they occur, may be applied for redemption payments at the increased rate of 100% instead of the initial rate of 75% of free cash flows.

From inception of the agreement to date, ABGL issued 3,200,000 Series A Preferred Units on first tranche for a value of $16.0 million and also issued 2,800,000 of Series A Preferred Units on second tranche for a value of $14.0 million, reduced by a redemption of 20,000 Series A Preferred Units for $0.3 million. The Company identified freestanding future tranche rights and the accelerated redemption feature related to a change in control provision as derivatives which required bifurcation. These derivative features were assessed to have minimal value as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 based on the evaluation of the other conditions included in the agreement.

On August 8, 2022, ABGL, Protair-X America, Inc. (“Protair”), and Third Eye Capital entered into a Waiver and Amendment to Series A Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (“PUPA Amendment") which amends that certain Series A Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (“PUPA”) dated as of December 20, 2018. The PUPA Amendment provides for: (i) a waiver of certain covenants prohibiting the internal reorganization of ABGL subsidiaries and the incurrence of indebtedness by ABGL and its subsidiaries pursuant to a USDA loan, provided that, among other things, Third Eye Capital shall have received a repayment of at least $7.3 million to be applied to the Carbon Revolving Line contemporaneously with the closing of the Construction Loan Agreement; (ii) a waiver of certain operational defaults under the PUPA; and (iii) an amendment which (a) requires ABGL to redeem all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units by December 31, 2022 (the “Final Redemption Date”) for $116 million; and (b) provides ABGL the right to redeem all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units by September 30, 2022 for $106 million. The PUPA Amendment further provides the failure to redeem the Series A Preferred Units by the Final Redemption Date would constitute a triggering event requiring ABGL to enter into a credit agreement with Protair and Third Eye Capital effective as of January 1, 2023. We evaluated the terms of the PUPA Amendment and applied extinguishment accounting treatment in accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt – Modification and Extinguishment and recorded a loss on extinguishment of $49.4 million in the third quarter of 2022.

On January 1, 2023, ABGL entered into the Second Waiver and Amendment to Series A Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (“PUPA Second Amendment") providing for: (i) a waiver for not redeeming all Series A Preferred Units by December 31, 2022, and (ii) the right by ABGL to redeem all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units by May 31, 2023 for an aggregate redemption price of $125 million. The PUPA Second Amendment further provides that failure to redeem the Series A Preferred Units by the redemption date, ABGL is required to enter into a credit agreement with Protair and Third Eye Capital effective as of June 1, 2023 and maturing on May 31, 2024, in substantially the form attached to the PUPA Second Amendment. We determined that Third Eye Capital provided a concession to redeem the preferred shares at lower effective borrowing rate than the credit agreement interest rate or prior amendment rate. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring, we applied troubled debt restructuring accounting, resulting in no gain or loss from the application of this accounting. In addition, given that the Company could turn the agreement into a credit agreement, the Company is accreting these tranches from an initial carrying value at December 31, 2022 of $116.0 million to $159.0 million over the seventeen months ending May 31, 2024.

On May 31, 2023, ABGL entered into the Third Waiver and Amendment to Series A Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (“PUPA Third Amendment") providing: (i) a waiver to ABGL for not redeeming all Series A Preferred Units by May 31, 2023 and (ii) the right by ABGL to redeem all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units by August 31, 2023, for an aggregate redemption price of $135 million. The PUPA Third Amendment further provides that failure to redeem the Series A Preferred Units by the redemption date, ABGL is required to enter into a credit agreement with Protair and Third Eye Capital effective, as of September 1, 2023 and maturing on August 31, 2024, in substantially the form attached to the PUPA Third Amendment. We determined that Third Eye Capital provided a concession to redeem the preferred shares at lower effective borrowing rate than the credit agreement interest rate or prior amendment rate. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring, we applied troubled debt restructuring accounting, resulting in no gain or loss from the application of this accounting In addition, given that the Company could turn the agreement into a credit agreement, the Company is accreting these tranches from a carrying value at May 31, 2023 of $127.2 million to $171.7 million over the fifteen months ending August 31, 2024. Hence, the preferred redemption balance is classified as long term liability as of June 30, 2023.

The Company recorded Series A Preferred Unit liabilities, net of debt discounts pursuant to these agreements, classified as long-term Series A Preferred Units, of $129.7 million and $116.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Variable interest entity assessment

After consideration of ABGL’s operations and the above agreement, we concluded that ABGL did not have enough equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. ABGL is capitalized with Series A Preferred Units that are recorded as liabilities under U.S. GAAP. Hence, we concluded that ABGL is a VIE. Through the Company's ownership interest in all of the outstanding common stock, its current ability to control the board of directors, the management fee paid to Aemetis and control of subordinated financing decisions, Aemetis has been determined to be the primary beneficiary and accordingly, the assets, liabilities, and operations of ABGL are consolidated into those of the Company. Total assets, before intercompany eliminations, of ABGL as of June 30, 2023 were $79.0 million which serve as collateral for the Series A Preferred Units. The Series A Preferred Units are not collateralized by any other assets or guarantees from Aemetis or its subsidiaries.

7. Stock-Based Compensation

2019 Stock Plan

On April 29, 2019, the Aemetis 2019 Stock Plan (the “2019 Stock Plan”) was approved by stockholders of the Company. This plan permits the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Non-Statutory Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units, Performance Shares and other stock or cash awards as the Administrator may determine in its discretion. The 2019 Stock Plan’s term is 10 years and supersedes all prior plans. The 2019 Stock Plan authorized the issuance of 200,000 shares of common stock for the 2019 calendar year, in addition to permitting transferring and granting any available and unissued or expired options under the Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Plan in an amount up to 177,246 shares of common stock.

With the approval of the 2019 Stock Plan, the Zymetis 2006 Stock Plan, and Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Plan (collectively, the “Stock Plans”) were terminated for granting any options under either plan. However, any options granted before the 2019 Stock Plan approved will remain outstanding and can be exercised, and any expired options will be available to grant under the 2019 Stock Plan.

As of June 30, 2023, the number of outstanding shares above includes 3.6 million options vested under the Stock Plans.

Stock-based compensation for employees

Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. We estimate the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line method.

Valuation and Expense Information

All issuances of stock options or other issuances of equity instruments to employees as the consideration for services received by us are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instrument issued. The fair value of options granted to employees is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. This valuation model for stock based compensation expense requires us to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the fair value of our common stock, the expected term (the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding), the volatility of our common stock, a risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. Under ASU 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payments Accounting, we have elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur. We use the simplified calculation of expected life described in the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment, and volatility is based on an average of the historical volatilities of the common stock of four entities with characteristics similar to those of the Company. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option. We use an expected dividend yield of zero, as we do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Expected forfeitures are assumed to be zero due to the small number of plan participants.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted 1.2 million and 0.9 million options, respectively. The weighted average fair value calculations for the options granted during these periods are based on the following assumptions:

|  | For the six months ended June 30, |
Description |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Dividend-yield |  |  | - | % |  |  | - | %
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 3.82 | % |  |  | 1.66 | %
Expected volatility |  |  | 125.32 | % |  |  | 113.45 | %
Expected life (years) |  |  | 7.00 |  |  |  | 7.00 |
Market value per share on grant date |  | $ | 3.75 |  |  | $ | 11.31 |
Fair value per option on grant date |  | $ | 3.43 |  |  | $ | 9.89 |

During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted 24 3,850 and 60,300 restricted stock awards, respectively, with a fair value on date of grant of $3.75 and $11.31, respectively, per award.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $10.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense for employees, which the Company will amortize over the 1.9 years of weighted average remaining term.

8. Outstanding Warrants

The weighted average fair value calculations for warrants granted are based on the following weighted average assumptions:

The Company granted warrants exercisable for 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share with a two-year term. These warrants have been exercised at option of withhold to cover and 62,293 shares were issued. In addition, the Company also granted warrants exercisable for 160,000 shares of the Company's common stock to senior lenders at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. These warrants were granted in the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and are outstanding as of June 30, 2023.

|  | For the six months ended June 30, |
Description |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Dividend-yield |  |  | - | % |  |  | - | %
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 3.76 | % |  |  | 1.75 | %
Expected volatility |  |  | 121.50 | % |  |  | 151.41 | %
Expected life (years) |  |  | 5.43 |  |  |  | 3.47 |
Exercise price per warrant |  | $ | 1.53 |  |  | $ | 10.47 |
Market value per share on grant date |  | $ | 3.14 |  |  | $ | 11.29 |
Fair value per warrant on grant date |  | $ | 2.95 |  |  | $ | 9.68 |

A summary of historical warrant activity follows:

|  | Warrants Outstanding & Exercisable |  |  | Weighted - Average Exercise Price |  |  | Average Remaining Term in Years |
Outstanding December 31, 2022 |  |  | 355 |  |  | $ | 15.92 |  |  |  | 7.48 |
Granted |  |  | 373 |  |  |  | 1.53 |  |  |  |  |

All of the above outstanding warrants are vested and exercisable as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no unrecognized compensation expense related to warrants, respectively.

9. Agreements

Working Capital Arrangement. Pursuant to a Corn Procurement and Working Capital Agreement with J.D. Heiskell, the Company agreed to procure whole yellow corn and grain sorghum, primarily from J.D. Heiskell. The Company has the ability to obtain grain from other sources subject to certain conditions; however, in the past all the Company’s grain purchases have been from J.D. Heiskell. Title and risk of loss of the corn pass to the Company when the corn is deposited into the Keyes Plant weigh bin. The term of the Corn Procurement and Working Capital Agreement expires on December 31, 2023, and the term can be automatically renewed for additional one-year terms. J.D. Heiskell further agreed to sell all ethanol to Murex or other marketing purchasers, all WDG and corn oil to A.L Gilbert, and DCO to other customers under the J.D. Heiskell Purchase Agreement. The Company’s relationships with J.D. Heiskell, and A.L. Gilbert are well established, and the Company believes that the relationships are beneficial to all parties involved in utilizing the distribution logistics, reaching out to widespread customer base, managing inventory, and building working capital relationships.

13. Management's Plan

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared contemplating the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As a result of negative capital, negative market conditions resulting in prolonged idling of the Keyes Plant, negative operating results, and collateralization of substantially all of the company assets, the Company has been reliant on its senior secured lender to provide additional funding and has been required to remit substantially all excess cash from operations to the senior secured lender. In order to meet its obligations during the next twelve months, the Company will need to either refinance the Company’s debt or receive the continued cooperation of its senior lender. This dependence on the senior lender raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to pursue the following strategies to improve the course of the business.

For the Keyes Plant, we restarted the plant during the second quarter after completing an extended maintenance cycle and accelerating the implementation of several important ethanol plant energy efficiency upgrades. We plan to operate the plant and continue to improve its financial performance by completing the existing upgrades and adopting new technologies or process changes that allow for energy efficiency, cost reduction or revenue enhancements, as well as, executing upon awarded grants that improve energy and operational efficiencies resulting in lower cost, lower carbon demands and overall margin improvement.

For Aemetis Biogas we plan to operate the biogas digesters to capture and monetize biogas as well as continue to build new dairy digesters and extend the existing pipeline in order to capture the higher carbon credits available in California. Funding for continued construction is based upon obtaining government guaranteed loans and executing on existing and new state grant programs.

For the Riverbank project, we plan to raise the funds necessary to construct and operate the Carbon Zero plant in Riverbank, CA using loan guarantees and public financings based upon the licensed technology that generate federal and state carbon credits available for ultra-low carbon fuels utilizing lower cost, non-food advanced feedstocks to significantly increase margins.

For all facilities in the United States, we plan to utilize the provision of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 by qualifying for renewable energy credits, whether in the form of an Investment Tax Credit, Producers Tax Credit or other credits and monetize the credits using the provisions of this congressional act.

For the Kakinada Plant, we plan to continue to develop sales channels for domestic products as the costs of feedstock normalize against the price of diesel, as recently announced governmental incentives take effect to promote the blending of biodiesel, and as feedstocks such as refined animal tallow are used domestically and exported. Additionally, we are in the process of obtaining approval to export refined animal tallow and biodiesel produced using animal tallow into international markets as the use of refined animal tallow received approval from the Pollution Control Board of India for production of biodiesel. The repatriation of funds from India to the parent company in the U.S. is reliant on favorable governmental approvals.

In addition to the above we plan to continue to locate funding for existing and new business opportunities through a combination of working with our senior lender, restructuring existing loan agreements, selling bonds in the taxable and tax-exempt markets, selling equity through the ATM and otherwise, selling the current EB-5 Phase II offering, or by vendor financing arrangements.

Risk Factors,” and in other reports we file with the SEC. All references to years relate to the calendar year ended December 31 of the particular year.

Overview

Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Cupertino, California, Aemetis, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis referred to herein as “Aemetis,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is an international renewable natural gas and renewable fuels company focused on the acquisition, development and commercialization of innovative negative carbon intensity products and technologies that replace traditional petroleum-based products. We operate in three reportable segments consisting of “California Ethanol,” “California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas,” and “India Biodiesel.” We have other operating segments determined not to be reportable segments and are collectively represented by the “All Other” category. At Aemetis, our mission is to generate sustainable and innovative renewable fuel solutions that benefit communities and restore our environment. We do this by building a local circular bioeconomy utilizing agricultural waste to produce low-carbon, advanced renewable fuels that reduce greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions and improve air quality by replacing traditional petroleum-based products.

Our California Ethanol segment consists of a 65 million gallon per year capacity ethanol production facility located in Keyes, California (the “Keyes Plant”) that we own and operate. In addition to low carbon renewable fuel ethanol, the Keyes Plant produces Wet Distillers Grains (“WDG”), Distillers Corn Oil (“DCO”), Carbon Dioxide (“CO2”) and Condensed Distillers Solubles (“CDS”), all of which are sold as animal feed to more than 80 local dairies and feedlots, with CO₂ sold to food, beverage, and industrial customers. We have several energy efficiency initiatives focused on significantly lowering the carbon intensity of our fuels, primarily by decreasing our use of petroleum-based natural gas. These energy efficiency projects include: high efficiency heat exchangers; the Mitsubishi ZEBREXTM ethanol dehydration system; a two-megawatt solar microgrid with battery storage; the Allen Bradley Decision Control System (DCS) to manage and optimize energy use and other plant operations; and the Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) system to reuse steam. These projects are expected to reduce petroleum natural gas use by converting key Keyes Plant processes to use electricity rather than natural gas and powering systems using low-carbon-intensity hydroelectric electricity or electricity produced onsite from solar panels.

In the third quarter of 2022, we completed the installation and began the operation of the ZEBREXTM ethanol dehydration system at the Keyes Plant, a key first step in the electrification of the Keyes Plant, that is expected to significantly reduce the use of petroleum-based natural gas as process energy at the plant. The electrification, along with the future installation of the two-megawatt zero carbon intensity solar microgrid system and the mechanical vapor recompression (MVR) system, will significantly reduce GHG emissions from the production facility and decrease the carbon intensity (CI) of fuel produced at the Keyes Plant. The lower CI of ethanol produced at the Keyes Plant will allow us to realize a higher price for the ethanol produced and sold at the Keyes Plant.

During the last two weeks of December 2022, we undertook an extended maintenance cycle and accelerated the implementation of several important ethanol plant energy efficiency upgrades noted above. Our decision was partly driven by the high natural gas prices in Northern California during the period. Furthermore, after monitoring natural gas pricing and margin profitability, we decided to extend the maintenance cycle into the second quarter of 2023. With natural gas pricing in a reasonable range and the maintenance turn-around complete, we restarted the plant in the second quarter of 2023.

Our California Dairy Renewable Natural gas segment, which consists of our subsidiary Aemetis Biogas LLC, ("Aemetis Biogas" or "ABGL") constructs and operates bio-methane anaerobic digesters at local dairies near the Keyes Plant (many of whom also purchase WDG produced by the Keyes Plant as animal feed); transports the biogas via pipeline to the Keyes Plant site; converts the biogas to Renewable Natural Gas (“RNG”), which is then delivered to customers through the PG&E natural gas pipeline.

The Aemetis Biogas network includes the Aemetis Biogas Central Dairy Project, which operates 40 miles of completed biogas pipeline; seven operating dairy digesters; five dairy digesters that are under construction; a centralized biogas-to-RNG conversion facility located at the Keyes Plant site; and a renewable natural gas interconnection with the PG&E utility gas pipeline. A total of 34 dairies have signed contracts with Aemetis Biogas in connection with participation in the Aemetis Biogas Central Dairy Project.

The dairy digesters are connected via an underground private pipeline owned by ABGL to a gas cleanup and compression unit at the Keyes Plant to produce dairy RNG. Upon receiving the bio-methane from the dairies, impurities are removed, and the bio-methane is converted to negative carbon intensity RNG that is injected into the statewide PG&E gas utility pipeline for use as transportation fuel or used as renewable process energy at the Keyes Plant.

Our India Biodiesel segment owns and operates a plant in Kakinada, India (“Kakinada Plant”) with a nameplate capacity of 150 thousand metric tons per year, or about 50 million gallons per year, producing high quality distilled biodiesel and refined glycerin for customers in India and Europe. We believe the Kakinada Plant is one of the largest biodiesel production facilities in India on a nameplate capacity basis. Kakinada Plant is capable of processing a variety of vegetable oils and animal fat waste feedstocks into biodiesel that meets international product standards. Our Kakinada Plant can also distill the crude glycerin byproduct from the biodiesel refining process into refined glycerin, which is sold to the pharmaceutical, personal care, paint, adhesive, and other industries.

Our All Other segment consists of: our Carbon Zero biofuels production plants to produce renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel; Carbon Capture and Sequestration compression system and injection wells; a research and development facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota; and our corporate offices in Cupertino, California.

Our Carbon Zero biofuels production plants are designed to produce low or negative carbon intensity sustainable aviation fuel (“SAF”) and renewable diesel fuel (“RD”) utilizing low carbon hydroelectric electricity, renewable hydrogen and non-edible renewable oils sourced from existing Aemetis biofuels plants and other sources. The first Carbon Zero plant is scheduled to be built in Riverbank, California at the 125-acre former Riverbank Army ammunition plant. The Riverbank plant is expected to utilize zero carbon hydroelectric and other renewable power available onsite to produce 90 million gallons per year of SAF, RD, and other byproducts. The plant is expected to supply the aviation and truck markets with ultra-low carbon renewable fuels to reduce GHG emissions and other pollutants associated with conventional petroleum-based fuels. By producing ultra-low carbon renewable fuels, the Company expects to capture high value D3 Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”) under the federal Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”), generate California Low Carbon Fuel Standard (“LCFS”) credits, and produce Inflation Reduction Act tax credits.

Our Carbon Capture subsidiary was established to build Carbon Capture and Sequestration (“CCS”) projects that generate LCFS and IRS 45Q tax credits by compressing and injecting CO₂ into deep wells which are monitored for emissions to ensure the long-term sequestration of carbon underground. California’s Central Valley has been identified as one of the world’s most favorable regions for large-scale CO₂ injection projects due to the subsurface geologic formation that absorbs and retains CO₂ gas. The two initial Aemetis CCS injection projects are expected to capture and sequester more than two million metric tons per year of CO₂ at the Aemetis biofuels plant sites in Keyes and Riverbank, California. In July 2022, Aemetis purchased 24 acres located on the Riverbank Industrial Complex site in Riverbank, California to develop a CCS injection well with more than 1 million metric tonnes per year of CO₂ sequestration capacity. The Company plans to construct a characterization well at each site to obtain soil information for permitting as required for the EPA Class VI CO₂ injection well permit application.

Our Minneapolis, Minnesota research and development laboratory develops efficient conversion technologies using low carbon intensity and waste feedstocks to produce low or below zero carbon intensity biofuels and biochemicals. We are focused on processes that extract sugar from cellulosic feedstocks and then utilize the remaining biomass to produce low carbon renewable hydrogen for the production of sustainable aviation fuel, renewable diesel and potential sale of renewable hydrogen to third parties as transportation fuel.

California Ethanol Revenue

Revenue generation for our California Ethanol segment relies upon supplying ethanol into the transportation fuel market in Northern California and supplying feed products to dairy and other animal feed operations in Northern California. We are actively implementing plans that will bring higher value for our fuel ethanol in an effort to improve our overall margins and to add incremental income to the California Ethanol segment, including, the implementation of the Solar Microgrid System, the installation of the Zebrex ethanol dehydration system, the installation of mechanical vapor recompression, and other energy efficiency technologies. The energy efficiency upgrades to the Keyes Plant will result in higher LCFS value through the reduction of the carbon intensity of the fuel ethanol produced at the plant.

We sell all ethanol, WDG, CDO, and CDS produced in this process to J.D. Heiskell. Our ethanol finished goods tank is leased by J.D. Heiskell and legal title to the product is transferred upon transfer of our finished ethanol to this location. The CO₂ produced by the Keyes Plant is sold to Messer Gas.

California Ethanol revenue is dependent on the price of ethanol, WDG, CDS, CO₂, and DCO. Ethanol pricing is influenced by local and national production and inventory levels, imported ethanol, corn prices, and gasoline demand, and is determined pursuant to a marketing agreement with a single fuel marketing customer and is generally based on daily and monthly pricing for ethanol delivered to the San Francisco Bay Area, California, as published by Oil Price Information Service (“OPIS”), as well as quarterly contracts negotiated by our marketing company with local fuel blenders. The price for WDG is influenced by the price of corn, the supply and price of distillers dried grains, and demand from the local dairy and feed markets and determined monthly pursuant to a marketing agreement with A.L. Gilbert and is generally determined in reference to the local price of dried distillers’ grains and other comparable feed products. Our revenue is further influenced by the price of natural gas, and our decision to operate the Keyes Plant at various capacity levels, conduct required maintenance, and respond to biological processes affecting output.

California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas Revenue

In December 2018, we utilized our relationships with California’s Central Valley dairy farmers by signing leases and raising funds to construct dairy digesters, a 40-mile pipeline, and a biogas-to-RNG facility to deliver fuels for sale to utility gas pipeline. We are currently producing RNG from seven digesters connected by our pipeline, then flowing this gas to our RNG cleanup and compression hub at the Keyes Plant. The RNG upgrade unit at the Keyes Plant enables the production and delivery of utility-grade RNG for sale as transportation fuel to California customers via the PG&E pipeline delivery interconnection.

In addition to the existing and operating dairy digesters, we currently have four additional dairy digesters that are under construction. We have approximately 34 signed agreements with dairies to construct dairy digesters. Our revenue development strategy for the Dairy Renewable Natural Gas segment relies upon continuing to collect bio-methane gas from the existing dairy digesters, continuing to build out the network of dairy digesters, extending the pipeline to grow the supply of RNG available for sale and utilizing the biogas-to-RNG upgrade unit to distribute utility-grade RNG to customers statewide. We are currently storing the produced RNG until the LCFS CI pathway for each dairy has been established, after which we will sell the stored gas to transportation customers statewide.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

For all facilities in the United States, we plan to utilize the provision of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 by qualifying for renewable energy credits, whether in the form of an Investment Tax Credit, Producers Tax Credit or other credits and monetize the credits using the provisions of this congressional act.

India Biodiesel Revenue

Our revenue strategy in India is based on continuing to sell biodiesel to our bulk fuel customers, fuel station customers, mining customers, industrial customers and tender offers placed by Government Oil Marketing Companies (“OMCs”) for bulk purchases of fuels. During the first quarter, the government of India updated the national biofuels policy and adopted a new tax on diesel fuel to promote biodiesel blending. As a result, the OMCs are pricing the tenders at economically viable levels, allowing for biodiesel producers in India to begin production.

During the second quarter of 2023, we fulfilled an OMC tender offer for 27,694 kiloliters (approximately 27,151 metric tons) of which 1443 metric tons, of biodiesel revenue was in transit as of June 30, 2023 and would be recognized as revenue during the third quarter. In addition, during the third quarter of 2023, we received an initial OMC tender offer for 18,000 kiloliters (approximately 17,650 metric tons), which we are in process of fulfilling the order.

The increase in SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was due to increases in (i) stock compensation, salaries and wages of $0.8 million and (ii) miscellaneous expense of $1.3 million due to reclassifying cost of goods sold depreciation, maintenance costs and plant services to SG&A during the extended maintenance cycle and the accelerated implementation of several important ethanol plant energy efficiency upgrades to the Keyes Plant.

Interest expense increased in the three months ended June 30, 2023 due to the Construction Loan debt, additional borrowings under the Revolving Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities, and the impact of rising interest rates on our variable interest rates facilities compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in accretion and other expenses of the Series A Preferred Units was due to provisions of the PUPA Amendments.

California Ethanol. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold 2.9 million gallons of ethanol at a price of $3.08 per gallon and 24.3 thousand tons of WDG at a price of $105 per ton. The decrease in revenues was due to an extended maintenance cycle and accelerated the implementation of several important ethanol plant energy efficiency upgrades to the Keyes Plant during the first quarter of 2023, and with the Keyes Plant restarting operations at the end of May.

California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we produced and sold 75.4 thousand MMBtu of physical molecules to an external party, at an average price of $5.52 per MMBtu, while placing the environmental attributes in storage for sale once the LCFS pathway for the carbon credits are established. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we produced and sold to an intercompany party 28.9 thousand MMBtus of dairy biogas.

India Biodiesel. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated 97% of our revenues from the sale of biodiesel, and 3% of our sales from other sales compared to 100% of our sales from other sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to receiving the tender offer from the Indian government, which made the conversion of biodiesel commercially viable for the Company. Biodiesel sales volume increased to 28.1 thousand metric tons in the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to none in the six months ended June 30, 2022, while price per ton increased to $1,210 per metric ton.

California Ethanol. For the six months ended June 30, 2023,we ground 1.4 million bushels of corn at $7.17 per bushel. This decreased was due to an extended maintenance cycle and an accelerated implementation of several important ethanol plant energy efficiency upgrades at the Keyes Plant. As a result of the Keyes Plant shutdown, our corn costs decreased by $89.0 million, natural gas costs decreased by $6.2 million, chemical and denaturant costs decreased by $2.7 million, and transportation costs decreased by $3.5 million compared to the same period in 2022.

California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas. Cost of Goods Sold expenses relate to dairy manure payments, maintenance on the dairy digesters, production bonuses, and depreciation. Cost of goods sold will continue to increase as we expand the business.

India Biodiesel. The increase in costs of goods sold was attributable to receiving the tender offer from the Indian government, which made the conversion of biodiesel commercially viable. In the six months ended June 30, 2023 biodiesel feedstock volume was 28.1 thousand metric tons, compared to none in the same period as in 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 the average price of biodiesel feedstock was $839 per metric ton compared to none in the same period as in 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents were $3.5 million at June 30, 2023, of which $0.6 million was held in North America and the rest was held at our Indian subsidiary. Our current ratio at June 30, 2023 decreased to 0.19 compared to our current ratio of 0.21 at December 31, 2022. We expect that our future available liquidity resources will consist primarily of cash generated from operations, remaining cash balances, borrowings available, if any, under our senior debt facilities and our subordinated debt facilities, and any additional funds raised through sales of equity. The use of proceeds from all equity raises and debt financings are subject to approval by our senior lender.

Liquidity

Cash and cash equivalents, current assets, current liabilities and debt at the end of each period were as follows (in thousands):

|  | As of |
|  | June 30, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 3,494 |  |  | $ | 4,313 |
Current assets (including cash, cash equivalents, and deposits) |  |  | 20,908 |  |  |  | 18,136 |
Current and long-term liabilities (excluding all debt) |  |  | 183,769 |  |  |  | 162,728 |
Current & long-term debt |  |  | 267,753 |  |  |  | 246,240 |

Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash provided by the sale of equity, operations, and borrowings under various debt arrangements.

We launched an EB-5 Phase II funding in 2016, under which we expect to issue $50.8 million in additional EB-5 Notes on substantially similar terms and conditions as those issued under our EB-5 Phase I funding. On November 21, 2019, the minimum investment amount was raised from $0.5 million per investor to $0.9 million per investor. As of June 30, 2023, EB-5 Phase II funding in the amount of $4.0 million had been released from escrow to us. Our principal uses of cash have been to refinance indebtedness, fund operations, and for capital expenditures. We anticipate these uses will continue to be our principal uses of cash in the future. Global financial and credit markets have been volatile in recent years, and future adverse conditions of these markets could negatively affect our ability to secure funds or raise capital at a reasonable cost, or at all.

We operate in a volatile market in which we have limited control over the major components of input costs and product revenues and are making investments in future facilities and facility upgrades that improve the overall margin while lessening the impact of these volatile markets. As such, we expect cash provided by operating activities to fluctuate in future periods primarily because of changes in the prices for corn, ethanol, WDG, DCO, CDS, biodiesel, waste fats and oils, glycerin, non-refined palm oil and natural gas. To the extent that we experience periods in which the spread between ethanol prices, and corn and energy costs narrow or the spread between biodiesel prices and waste fats and oils or palm oil and energy costs narrow, we may require additional working capital to fund operations.

As a result of negative capital, negative market conditions, negative operating results, and collateralization of substantially all of the company assets, the Company has been reliant on its senior secured lender to provide additional funding and has been required to remit substantially all excess cash from operations to the senior secured lender. In order to meet its obligations during the next twelve months, the Company will need to either refinance the Company’s debt or receive the continued cooperation of its senior lender. This dependence on the senior lender raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to pursue the following strategies to improve the course of the business.

For the Keyes Plant, we restarted the plant during the second quarter after completing an extended maintenance cycle and accelerating the implementation of several important ethanol plant energy efficiency upgrades. We plan to operate the plant and continue to improve its financial performance by completing the existing upgrades and adopting new technologies or process changes that allow for energy efficiency, cost reduction or revenue enhancements, as well as, executing upon awarded grants that improve energy and operational efficiencies resulting in lower cost, lower carbon demands and overall margin improvement.

For Aemetis Biogas, we plan to operate the biogas digesters to capture and monetize biogas as well as continue to build new dairy digesters and extend the existing pipeline in order to capture the higher carbon credits available in California. Funding for continued construction is based upon obtaining government guaranteed loans and executing on existing and new state grant programs.

For the Riverbank project, we plan to raise the funds necessary to construct and operate the Carbon Zero plant in Riverbank, CA using loan guarantees and public financings based upon the licensed technology that generate federal and state carbon credits available for ultra-low carbon fuels utilizing lower cost, non-food advanced feedstocks to significantly increase margins.

For all facilities in the United States, we plan to utilize the provision of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 by qualifying for renewable energy credits, whether in the form of an Investment Tax Credit, Producers Tax Credit or other credits and monetize the credits using the provisions of this congressional act.

For the Kakinada Plant, we plan to continue to develop sales channels for domestic products as the costs of feedstock normalize against the price of diesel, as recently announced governmental incentives take effect to promote the blending of biodiesel, and as feedstocks such as refined animal tallow are used domestically and exported. Additionally, we are in the process of obtaining approval to export refined animal tallow and biodiesel produced using animal tallow into international markets as the use of refined animal tallow received approval from the Pollution Control Board of India for production of biodiesel. The repatriation of funds from India to the parent company in the U.S. is reliant on favorable governmental approvals.

In addition to the above we plan to continue to locate funding for existing and new business opportunities through a combination of working with our senior lender, restructuring existing loan agreements, selling bonds in the taxable and tax-exempt markets, selling equity through the ATM and otherwise, selling the current EB-5 Phase II offering, or by vendor financing arrangements.

At June 30, 2023, the outstanding balance of principal, interest and fees, net of discounts, on all Third Eye Capital Notes equaled $173 million. The maturity dates for the Third Eye Capital financing arrangements are August 31, 2023, for $9.2 million, April 1, 2025, for $118 million, March 1, 2025, for $25.0 million and March 1, 2026, for $24.9 million.

As of the date of this report, the Company has $50.0 million additional borrowing capacity to fund future cash flow requirements under the Reserve Liquidity Notes with a maturity date April 1, 2024.

We also rely on our working capital lines with Gemini, Secunderabad Oils, and Leo Edibles & Fats India Ltd. in India to fund our commercial arrangements for the acquisitions of feedstock. We currently provide our own working capital for the Keyes Plant; Gemini and Secunderabad Oils currently provide us with working capital for the Kakinada Plant. The ability of Gemini, Secunderabad Oils, and Leo Edibles to continue to provide us with working capital depends in part on both of their respective financial strength and banking relationships.

Working capital changes resulted in (i) a $2.8 million increase in inventories due to the Keyes Plant restarting operations and (ii) a $4.9 million increase in accounts receivable due to UBPL fulfilling a government tender in the second quarter of 2023. This was partially offset by (i) a $3.0 million decrease in prepaid expenses mainly due to the use of a J.D. Heiskell pre-payment, (ii) a decrease in other current assets of $1.1 million due to receipt of the restricted cash from the Construction loan, and (iii) a $0.8 million decrease in cash.

Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $14.0 million, consisting of non-cash charges of $24.7 million, net cash provided by operating assets and liabilities of $13.0 million, and net loss of $51.7 million. The non-cash charges consisted of: (i) $3.3 million in amortization of debt issuance costs and other intangible assets, (ii) $3.5 million in depreciation expenses, (iii) $4.8 million in stock-based compensation expense and a warrant grant to our working capital partner, (iv) $12.4 million in preferred unit accretion and other expenses of Series A preferred units, and (v) $0.7 million change in deferred tax expense. Net changes in operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of (i) an increase in accrued interest of $12.1 million, (ii) prepaid expenses decrease of $2.4 million, (iii) an increase in accounts payable of $4.4 million, and (iv) an increase in other liabilities of $1.8 million. This was partially offset by an increase in (i) inventories of $2.9 million and (ii) a decrease in Accounts Receivable of $4.9 million.

Cash used by investing activities was $2.5 million, of which $9.8 million were used by capital projects, partially offset by grant proceeds and other reimbursements of $7.3 million.

Cash provided by financing activities was $15.2 million, consisting of $8.9 million from issuance of common stock and $21.6 million from proceeds from borrowings, partially offset by repayments of borrowings of $13.4 million, payment of debt renewal and waiver fees of $1.7 million and payments on finance leases of $0.3 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of net sales and expenses for each period. We believe that of our most significant accounting policies and estimates, defined as those policies and estimates that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain are: revenue recognition; recoverability of long-lived assets, Series A Preferred unit liability, and debt modification and extinguishment accounting. These significant accounting principles are more fully described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Management (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, although remediation plans were initiated to address the material weaknesses over financial reporting as identified in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the disclosure controls and procedures along with the related internal controls over financial reporting were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and is compiled and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

As discussed in greater detail under Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, we initiated a remediation plan to address the material weakness in our internal control related to information technology general controls and information technology systems.

For a more comprehensive discussion of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting identified by management as of December 31, 2022, and the remedial measures undertaken to address these material weaknesses, investors are encouraged to review Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
