CLMT Calumet, Inc. /DE
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Calumet reported Q1 2026 GAAP net loss of $317.0M ($3.64/share), widening from a $162.0M loss a year ago, driven by $147.4M in non-cash RINs expense and $102.7M in unrealized derivative losses. Adjusted EBITDA with Tax Attributes fell to $50.1M from $55.0M, with operational downtime at Shreveport and the Montana Renewables turnaround weighing on results. Management highlighted a transformative EPA SET2 RVO announcement and the commencement of MaxSAF 150 operations as catalysts for improved biofuel margins going forward.
Key Financial Metrics
Actionable Insight
The headline GAAP loss and cash burn are alarming, but the market is likely to look through the non-cash RINs/derivative charges and focus on the operational catalysts: MaxSAF 150 startup and the EPA SET2 RVO tailwind for renewable diesel margins. Monitor Q2 2026 results for evidence of margin recovery and cash flow improvement. The Shreveport outage is resolved, removing a near-term headwind.

Financial Impact

Risk Factors
- Persistent negative operating cash flow could pressure liquidity despite $138.6M cash on hand
- RINs obligation ballooned to $316.7M from $169.3M at year-end, a significant near-term liability
- Renewable diesel margin recovery depends on regulatory implementation of SET2 RVO, which carries execution risk
- High debt load ($2.3B) with $32.6M current portion; interest expense of $51.1M per quarter is a fixed burden
