The Fort Worth Press - XCF Global Highlights Revenue-Generating Production and Commercial Progress

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESS Newswire / July 28, 2026 / XCF Global, Inc. ("XCF") (Nasdaq:SAFX), an emerging U.S.-based producer of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel ("SAF"), today issued the following letter to shareholders from Chief Executive Officer Chris Cooper. The letter connects XCF's recent operating and commercial announcements and provides additional context on the progress underway at New Rise Renewables Reno, including the market conditions that XCF believes may provide a constructive backdrop for renewable diesel production and commercialization.

Dear Shareholders,

Over the past several weeks, we have announced a series of developments across XCF. Taken together, we believe they reflect progress in the areas that matter most to our business: operating New Rise Renewables Reno safely and efficiently and establishing the commercial framework intended to support production.

Following the upgrade work completed ahead of restart, New Rise Renewables Reno is now operating at process temperatures approximately 40 degrees lower than under prior operating conditions. We believe this improvement demonstrates the value of the work completed by our team and may reduce the energy required to produce each gallon of fuel, which we believe could support lower energy costs and a lower carbon footprint as production ramps. Actual results may vary based on operating conditions and other factors.

This operating progress builds on XCF's previously announced commercial framework, which is intended to support feedstock supply, production coordination, logistics and commercialization at New Rise Renewables Reno. The facility subsequently began producing renewable fuels, with initial output in the form of renewable diesel. We intend to continue ramping production under the existing commercial framework, subject to operating performance, feedstock availability, customer demand and other factors, and we expect to provide additional updates as material operating and customer-delivery milestones are achieved.

This commercial progress comes as U.S. diesel futures have risen more than 85% since the start of 2026, according to a July 16 report by The Wall Street Journal. As geopolitical developments continue to influence global energy markets, we believe these market conditions may provide a constructive backdrop as XCF seeks to ramp renewable diesel production and commercialization; however, market conditions remain subject to change.

None of this progress happens without a team that has remained focused through a demanding process and shareholders who continue to support the Company. Thank you. We remain focused on disciplined execution and intend to continue providing updates as New Rise Reno's production ramp progresses.

Sincerely,

Chris Cooper
Chief Executive Officer, XCF Global, Inc.
