(NYSE American: AGIG) (“Abundia” or the “Company”), a low-carbon energy solutions company focused on converting biomass and plastics waste into high-value low-carbon fuels, publishes a business update following the release of financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, highlighting continued execution across its commercialization strategy, strengthened financial position and expansion of its growth opportunity through the recent acquisition of RPD Technologies, LLC (RPD). “The company has had a busy and constructive start to 2026. We have made consistent progress on our business plan, expanded our balance sheet assets to over $48 million through strategic investments in infrastructure, technology, and operating assets, while creating a dual growth strategy to drive shareholder value into the second half of the year," said Ed Gillespie, Abundia Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Gillespie continued, “At our Cedar Port facility, Phase 1 of the site development and construction activities are now coming to a close. Our subsidiary, RPD, has commenced its relocation into the facility and is completing final fit-out. Separately, Abundia’s new office building is also nearing completion and will house and provide support facilities for the construction management team responsible for the planned Phase 2 waste plastics-to-fuels facility. Additionally, as part of Phase 1, we brought many of the utilities to the site necessary for Phase 2 to enable a cost efficient construction approach to the site development.” “On the RPD acquisition and its move to the new site and expanded facility, we believe this will accelerate the growth of our engineering, fabrication and process scale-up subsidiary, allowing the team to target larger contract opportunities. Importantly, with this new facility and its additional land and resources, Abundia has positioned RPD’s business to generate incremental revenue whilst we construct the waste plastics-to-fuels facility. It is also worth noting that RPD demonstrated strong project demand having invoiced $5.7 million in sales with revenue of $3.0 million during the first six months of 2026.” “We are proud of the advancements we have made in 2026 on our waste plastics-to-fuels project. We have routinely completed milestones and secured a series of strategic commercial relationships that are outlined later in this update. Importantly, our team’s disciplined execution is demonstrated in the strength of our transformed balance sheet; we have made steady progress at Cedar Port, expanded our business with the acquisition of RPD and executed across core commercial milestones necessary to support Final Investment Approval (FIA) targeted for early 2027. Overall, we’ve aligned our strategic goals and commercialization milestones to reduce execution risk while strengthening the long-term value proposition of our business." Year to Date 2026 Commercial Highlights Secured Topsoe Partnership &amp; License Agreement - Topsoe is recognized as one of the leading refining partners in the industry, and by securing this relationship, the Company derisks the technology strategy by using Topsoe’s operational and established HydroFlex upgrading technology. Burns &amp; McDonnell Selected as Lead Front End Engineer - Well-positioned to deliver the Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) package for the waste-plastics-to-renewable products facility. FEED is the next step following the recently completed baseline Process Design Package (PDP), to expand the facility’s engineering design and maintain steady progression in the Company’s commercial readiness and path to FIA. Strategic Acquisition of RPD Technologies - Establishes diversification within Abundia's business plan with additional revenue opportunities through a customer base of key industry participants, a new state of the art facility, and a strong pipeline for future expansion. Beyond providing an additional operating business and expanding the Company's revenue base, the acquisition strengthens Abundia's in-house engineering and technology scale-up capabilities. Confirmed 10-Year Feedstock Supply for Waste to Fuels Facility - Abundia expects to finalize the supply agreement for 40,000 tons per year of plastic waste feedstock, representing approximately 50% of the expected requirement for Abundia's first Cedar Port plant. Securing long-term feedstock supply builds upon the consistent progression of commercial and engineering components to bring plastics recycling projects to FIA. Appointed Keith Berger as Chief Commercial Officer - Abundia has strengthened its team of disciplined operators with proven track records in all aspects necessary for company management, governance and execution of complex infrastructure and energy projects. Delivered on Anchor PDP for First Waste Plastics Facility - Established the process design package (PDP), the foundation for technical engineering designs, positioning Abundia to execute the FEED engineering phase. Diversifies Business Model with Completion of New RPD Facility - Achieved a key milestone that provides RPD with expanded operations to target larger and more complex projects while strengthening Abundia’s commercial strategy and diversifying revenue opportunities.

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights (compared to Second Quarter 2025) For comparative purposes, prior period financial information has been revised to reflect the retrospective combination of Abundia and RPD. <ul type="disc"><li style="text-align:justify;">Total assets increased to approximately $48.5 million representing the real assets related to ongoing development and construction of Abundia’s Innovation Center at Cedar Port, primarily due to the commencement of construction on the RPD Facility and the Company’s Corporate Headquarters. This phase of the construction in progress is scheduled to be completed in September 2026.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">Cash and cash equivalents of approximately $11.2 million at June 30, 2026.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">Total revenue of $2.0 million, compared to $0.5 million in the same prior year period, a meaningful increase following the integration of RPD.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">RPD’s engineering and process segment revenue grew to $1.8 million from $0.5 million in the prior year period. The significant increase in revenue was primarily driven by the completion of RPD’s relocation to the Company’s facility reflecting a return towards full operating capacity, while the prior year period reflects RPD’s business operating at a limited capacity during the relocation process.</li><li style="text-align:justify;">Abundia’s financial statements will now include RPD, acquired on April 1, 2026. U.S. GAAP requires prior-period results to be restated to include RPD from April 16, 2025, so all year-over-year comparisons above are like-for-like. The Company reports three operating segments: Renewables, Engineering &amp; Process Development Services, and Legacy Oil &amp; Gas, with RPD adding a new revenue stream as Abundia advances its renewable fuels commercialization strategy. </li></ul> About Abundia Global Impact Group, Inc.
