7. Revenue and Accounts Receivable

 

California Ethanol Revenues: We sell our ethanol segment products to J.D. Heiskell, which sells them to third parties designated by us. We record revenue for ethanol when we transfer ethanol into our storage tank, which is leased to J.D. Heiskell, and when product is loaded into shipping trucks for products other than ethanol. We also buy our corn feedstock from J.D. Heiskell. Transaction prices for ethanol sales and corn purchases are based on daily market prices. We invoice J.D. Heiskell each business day for the net balance between ethanol and other product sales and our corn purchases, and J.D. Heiskell pays on the next business day. In the first six months of 2026, we recognized Section 45Z PTC income upon production of eligible ethanol. The following table lists the California Ethanol segment revenues:

California Dairy Renewable Natural Gas Revenues: Our RNG production facilities as of  June 30, 2026, include twelve anaerobic digesters that produce biogas from manure waste received from fifteen dairies, a 36-mile biogas collection pipeline leading from the dairy digesters to a central upgrading hub that produces RNG, and an interconnect to inject the RNG into the utility natural gas pipeline for delivery to customers for use as transportation fuel. We also generate sellable credits under the federal Renewable Fuel Standard (referred to as "D3 RINs") and the California Low Carbon Fuel Standard ("LCFS"), as well as tax credit programs. We recognize revenue from natural gas sales when we inject the RNG into the utility pipeline and we recognize revenue from sales of D3 RINs and LCFS credits when we sell the credits. We recognize Section 45Z PTC income upon dispensing of eligible RNG. The following table lists RNG segment revenues:
