Second Quarter Update & Highlights

Project Radius

During Q2 2022, EverGen acquired a 50% interest in Project Radius, which is a late development-stage portfolio of three high-quality, on-farm RNG projects, collectively capable of producing ~1.7 million GJ/year of RNG and will be constructed throughout 2023 and 2024.

Event Subsequent to the Second Quarter

GrowTEC

On July 14, 2022, EverGen completed the acquisition of a 67% interest in Alberta’s Grow the Energy Circle Ltd. (“GrowTEC”), which is currently in the first phase of a core RNG expansion project designed to produce ~80,000 GJ/year of RNG and is expected to be completed in Q4 2022. The facility will then move into the second phase of the project, which is expected to produce a total of 140,000 GJ/year of RNG.

Financing

On August 10, 2022, EverGen announced that is had signed a term sheet with its existing lender, Roynat Capital (a subsidiary of Scotiabank) and Export Development Canada (“EDC”) for a $31 million syndicated senior term loan (the “Facility”) to support the funding of its near-term Core RNG Expansion Projects at Fraser Valley Biogas (“FVB”) and Net Zero Waste Abbotsford (“NZWA”). The Facility ensures that EverGen’s near-term Core RNG Expansion Projects are fully funded.

Q2 2022 Financial Highlights

The operating results for Q2 2022 were impacted by unseasonal weather during the period and the timing of flood-related lost revenue and expenditures incurred relative to the recognition of insurance proceeds.

• Cash and cash equivalents of $17.4 million.

• Revenues of $2.4 million decreased from Q2 2021 due to lower volumes of incoming organic feedstock and seasonal impacts on organic compost and soil sales.

In August 2022, EverGen received confirmation from its insurers of the approval of an additional $1.5 million of partial insurance proceeds, of which a significant portion of this amount will be included in Net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA for Q3 2022.

• Net income (loss) of ($0.5) million was impacted by flood-related lost revenue and expenditures.

• Adjusted EBITDA of $0.4 million included estimated flood related lost revenue and expenditure of approximately $1 million and was impacted by lower revenue due to unseasonal weather, as described above.
