Arizona Tribune - XCF Announces $2.50 Exercise Price Warrant Capital Strategy to Support Operations and Growth

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESS Newswire / July 22, 2026 / XCF Global Inc. ("XCF") (Nasdaq:SAFX), an emerging U.S.-based producer of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel ("SAF"), today announced the launch of a novel warrant capital strategy intended to support its ongoing operations, production optimization and commercial expansion.

As part of the strategy, the Company has entered into a warrant purchase agreement with existing investor GL PART SPV II, LLC ("GL"), under which GL may purchase warrants to acquire common stock in the future at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, demonstrating GL's belief in the company's potential future growth in shareholder value. Pursuant to the terms of the warrant purchase agreement, at the initial closing scheduled for July 31, 2026, GL is to pay 1,000,000 and receive an initial warrant to purchase up to 6,891,798 shares of XCF common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the warrant purchase agreement, warrants relating to a maximum of 50,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued. The warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. The structure is intended to provide XCF with a flexible capital formation mechanism and, we believe, may help align investor participation with the Company's expected future growth. The purchase of the initial tranche of $1 million in warrants is expected to close before the end of the month. The agreement with GL provides for the investment of up to $100 million in XCF before the end of the year through this strategy.

"We appreciate GL's continued support of XCF's long-term strategy and growth objectives," said Chris Cooper, Chief Executive Officer of XCF Global. "As we continue operating and producing renewable fuels while advancing our commercial activities, we believe this framework provides additional flexibility to support our growth objectives while maintaining our focus on disciplined execution."

New Rise Reno Renewables Operational Update

Additionally, the Company is pleased to report that, since restarting operations a few weeks ago, the facility has steadily increased renewable fuels production as it works toward nameplate capacity. Through the upgrades and improvements in the plant over the last several months, XCF has realized certain production efficiencies, including the ability to produce fuels at lower operating temperatures, which the Company believes will reduce energy usage and support more efficient operations over time. The company's renewable fuel products are being marketed through XCF's commercial relationship with BGN at pricing consistent with current market expectations.

"Our focus remains on safe, reliable, and sustainable commercial operations and continued production optimization," Cooper added. "We are pleased by the progress made to date, including early production efficiencies we believe are likely to reduce energy usage over time, and we remain focused on serving customers while building a strong foundation for our planned commercial, operational and financial excellence."
