Our primary products are comprised of AC, which is produced from a variety of carbonaceous raw materials. Our AC products include both powdered activated carbon ("PAC") and granular activated carbon ("GAC"). Additionally, we own the Five Forks Mine, a lignite mine located in Saline, Louisiana, that …
The decision to pause GAC production, continue idling the Corbin Facility as a cost saving measure, and launch an engineering and production process optimization review was made in March 2026, following the review of independent testing results received in January 2026. This testing demonstrated tha…
These constraints emerged as we prepared to transition from our Corbin Wetcake to bituminous proven performance coal, a solution which is expected to address previously announced design and feedstock variability challenges at our GAC Facility. The current issues that we are experiencing with our the…
Due to the issues described above, we do not expect GAC production in fiscal year 2026.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized net loss of $0.8 million, compared to net income of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The most significant factors impacting results between periods for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 were increa…

The most significant factors impacting results be…
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, revenue increased from the comparable quarter in 2024 primarily driven by higher pricing, which contributed approximately $1.3 million of total revenue increase. The increase was offset by a decrease in volumes sold, causing a decrease of $0.9 million i…
Gross margin, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, decreased primarily as a result of lower initial commercial phase GAC production volumes compared to higher fixed production costs at our Red River Plant and Corbin Facility, which previously had been recorded as general and administrative co…
How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
