| TAX CREDIT RECOGNITION | TAX CREDIT RECOGNITION The U.S. federal government has introduced tax incentives to promote the production of low-carbon fuels and reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions, enhance energy security, and support the rural agricultural economy. Effective January 1, 2025, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) replaces Section 6426 of the Internal Revenue Code with Section 45Z, providing a clean fuel production credit for the years 2025 through 2027. This was further updated and extended on July 4, 2025, under the OBBBA extending the credit through 2029. Producers of liquid transportation fuels are eligible to qualify for up to $1 per gallon. The Company recognizes tax credits associated with the U.S. federal clean fuel production incentives under Section 45Z of the Internal Revenue Code in accordance with IAS 20 - Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance. In accordance with IAS 20, the tax incentive is recognized when there is reasonable assurance the Company will comply with the provisions of the incentive and that the incentive will be received. These credits are recognized in Other Assets on the Company’s Balance Sheets and in Other Income (Expense) on the Statements of Operations. The Company is eligible for these federal tax credits, which are reasonable of being received during the nine months ended July 31, 2026. For the nine months ended July 31, 2026, the Company recognized $11,700,000 of Section 45Z tax credits. This amount includes the gross credit amount of approximately $13,100,000 net of broker fees, discounts, energy credits and compliance payments of approximately $1,400,000. The Company recorded $11,700,000 as an increase to Other Income and an asset recorded within Other Assets. The Company plans to monetize these tax credits through sale of such credits to third parties.
