“The quarter marked our strongest financial performance to date, with record revenue, net income, Adjusted EBITDA1 and cash flow from operations,” said Gevo Chief Executive Officer Paul Bloom. “We said we would build a carbon business that stands on its own in 2026. These results show it’s working. By selling into both compliance and voluntary carbon markets, we’ve built a durable business from the carbon we capture and store today, contributing to both revenue and cash flow, ending the third quarter with $68 million in cash and setting the stage for our next phase of growth.”
Revenue growth
Cyclical industries such as energy can make mediocre companies look strong for a time, but a long-term view reveals which businesses can withstand and adapt to changing conditions. Over the last five years, Gevo grew its revenue at a strong 191% compounded annual growth rate. Its growth beat the average energy upstream and integrated energy company and shows its offerings resonate with customers.
Within energy, a single timeframe, even a long one, only sheds light on how well a company rode the last commodity cycle. To better assess whether a company compounds through cycles, a ten-year view provides a longer perspective. Gevo’s annualized revenue growth of 22.5% over the last ten years is below its five-year trend, but the results still suggest decent demand.
This quarter, Gevo reported year-on-year revenue growth of 94.2%, and its revenue of $82.95 million beat Wall Street’s consensus estimates by 47.9%.
Key takeaways from Gevo’s Q3 results

Gevo may have had a good quarter, but that alone doesn’t determine whether the stock is a buy. When making that decision, it’s important to consider its valuation, business quality and what happened in the latest quarter. For more on those factors, read our full research report here (it’s free).
