Business Overview and Basis of Presentation Business Overview and Basis of Presentation
AleAnna, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “AleAnna”), a Delaware corporation, was formed on December 13, 2024, in connection with the Business Combination (as defined below). AleAnna Inc. consolidates AleAnna Energy, LLC, AleAnna Resources, LLC, AleAnna Italia S.p.A. (“AleAnna Italia”) and AleAnna Renewable Energy S.r.l. (“AleAnna Renewable”). AleAnna Renewable is comprised of various subsidiaries that hold its renewable natural gas assets (the “RNG Subsidiaries”).
Business Combination
On December 13, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), AleAnna consummated its business combination pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended by that certain First Amendment to the Merger Agreement, dated as of October 8, 2024, the “Merger Agreement”), dated June 4, 2024, by and among Swiftmerge Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Swiftmerge”), Swiftmerge HoldCo LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Swiftmerge (“HoldCo”), Swiftmerge Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of HoldCo and AleAnna Energy, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Merger”). Immediately upon the completion of the Business Combination, Swiftmerge was renamed to AleAnna, Inc.
AleAnna is a holding company and its organizational structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership C corporation (or “Up-C”) structure. It is dependent upon distributions from HoldCo to pay taxes, and cover its corporate and other overhead expenses. AleAnna is the sole manager of and controls HoldCo, and consolidates HoldCo and its subsidiaries. Economic interests in HoldCo held by other members are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements.

Prior to the Business Combination, and up to the Closing Date, Swiftmerge was a special purpose acquisition company incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

Conventional Natural Gas
AleAnna is a natural gas resource developer focused on delivering critical natural gas supplies to Europe through both onshore conventional natural gas exploration and renewable natural gas development in Italy. The Company has several conventional natural gas discoveries including the Longanesi field, located in the Po Valley in Northern Italy, which is one of Italy’s largest modern gas discoveries. AleAnna retains a 33.5% working interest in the Longanesi field with its working interest partner, and operator, Società Padana Energia S.r.l. (“Padana”). AleAnna acquired its working interest in the Longanesi field through a 2016 transaction with Enel S.p.a. The Company also retains wholly owned concessions, permits, and pending applications on other exploration and development prospects across Italy which are supported by proprietary modern 3D seismic reservoir imaging.
In March 2025, AleAnna achieved a key milestone with the first production from its working interests in five wells in the Longanesi field. The Company began recognizing revenue and related expenses, including depreciation and depletion, associated with Longanesi production in 2025.
Renewable Natural Gas (“RNG”)
In 2023, AleAnna launched a renewable natural gas (“RNG”) development business focused on bringing to market carbon negative renewable natural gas derived from animal and agricultural waste.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Form 10-K”). Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year or any future period.

Significant Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures related to these amounts at the date of the financial statements. The Company evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis based on current and historical developments, market conditions, industry trends and other information that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company can make no assurance that actual results will conform to its estimates and assumptions; reported results of operations may be materially affected by changes in these estimates and assumptions.
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of amounts that are held in escrow accounts or otherwise segregated to satisfy specific contractual obligations. The Company’s restricted cash relates to amounts reserved in connection with its contingent consideration liability.

Accounting Changes Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses. The update requires more detailed information on expense components, such as inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion, within commonly reported categories like cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development. These amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the amendments and the impact on its future consolidated statements and disclosures.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 to improve navigability and clarify the application of the guidance in ASC 270. The guidance lists the interim disclosures required under U.S. GAAP as well as establishes a disclosure principle. The new disclosure principle requires entities to disclose events or changes that have occurred since the end of the previous annual reporting period and have a material impact on the entity. These amendments are effective for interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 with early adoption allowed. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the updated guidance will have on the Company’s financial statement disclosures.
