Note 14—Variable Interest Entity

Citizens Choice Energy, LLC (“CCE”) is a REP that resells electricity and natural gas to residential and small business customers in the State of New York. The Company did not own any interest in CCE. Since 2011, the Company has provided CCE with substantially all of the cash required to fund its operations. The Company determined that it had the power to direct the activities of CCE that most significantly impact its economic performance and it had the obligation to absorb losses of CCE that could potentially be significant to CCE on a stand-alone basis. The Company therefore determined that it was the primary beneficiary of CCE, and as a result, the Company consolidated CCE within its GRE segment. The net income or loss incurred by CCE was attributed to noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

In April 2025, the Company signed an Equity Purchase Agreement with Tari Corporation to acquire a 100% interest in CCE for one U.S. dollar and the forgiveness of all intercompany balances of CCE with the Company, subject to approval of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which the Company received on November 7, 2025.

Net loss related to CCE and aggregate net funding provided by the Company were each $0.2 million and nominal amount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
