Q3 2026 Net Income of $12.7 Million, or $0.16 per Share Q3 2026 Adjusted EBITDA of $21.0 Million PEKIN, Ill., Nov. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alto Ingredients, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALTO), a leading producer and distributor of renewable fuels, essential ingredients and specialty alcohols, reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Alto Ingredients has posted four consecutive profitable quarters, improved its balance sheet, and is rated Buy at $3.90 due to attractive forward valuation. Q2 2026 results were strong, driven by favorable ethanol markets, but future earnings depend on structural improvements like Section 45Z and Pekin plant expansion. Section 45Z credits could add ~$15M net profit in 2026, with further upside from lower carbon intensity and E15-driven demand growth from 2027 onward.

PEKIN, Ill., Sept. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alto Ingredients, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALTO), a producer and distributor of renewable fuel, essential ingredients and specialty alcohols, today announced that management will take part in the H.C. Wainwright 28th Annual Global Investment Conference, conducting one-on-one meetings throughout the day on Tuesday, September 15, 2026.

ALTO's second-quarter gross profit rebounds on stronger crush margins and lower utilities, but $2M more in maintenance costs partly offset the gains.

ALTO and GPRE are pursuing different biofuel strategies as ethanol producers navigate corn prices, policy shifts and low-carbon demand.

ALTO's higher alcohol volumes and hedging cushioned narrower premiums, but softer pricing remains a key profitability watchpoint.

ALTO's renewable fuel exports fall as Middle East disruption raises freight costs, but stronger premiums and U.S. ethanol demand soften the impact.

ALTO has delivered stronger second-quarter profitability, but export headwinds, rising costs and estimate cuts cloud the near-term outlook.

ALTO's 45Z tax credits are contributing to earnings as it works to expand eligible production and lower carbon intensity.
