## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**<u>Genie Energy Announces First Quarter</u>**<u> </u>**<u>2026 Results</u>**

**Newark, NJ** – **May 14, 2026:** Genie Energy, Ltd. (NYSE: GNE), a leading retail energy and renewable energy solutions provider, today announced results for the first quarter of 2026.

Michael Stein, Chief Executive Officer of Genie Energy, commented:

Genie's first quarter results were mixed as investments in customer acquisition at GRE and in new business initiatives combined with weakness in retail margins to impact our bottom line despite record quarterly revenue. As a result, we are lowering full year 2026 guidance from $40 to $50 million, to $32.5 to $40 million in Adjusted EBITDA.

At GRE, challenging commodity market conditions in the first two months of the quarter compressed margins before rebounding in March. We also increased our customer acquisition spend this quarter, reflecting increases in the rate of new customer acquisition and in the cost of acquisition per customer. At GREW, we ramped up investment in several early-stage growth initiatives and further wrote down our inventory of solar panels.

Despite the tough first quarter, we expect to see significant improvement as we progress through the remainder of the year. GRE is a resilient business that, by its nature, will have episodes of margin compression like this one but also opportunities for exceptional profitability.

At GREW, all three primary areas of business are in good shape. Diversegy continues to grow its book of business and generate cash. Genie Solar is on track to be profitable for the remainder of the year and beyond. And we expect that our key earlier-stage initiatives, collectively, will gradually pivot towards profitability as they gain scale in the coming quarters.

**<u>First Quarter 2026 Highlights</u>**

*(Unless otherwise noted, results are for 1Q26 and are compared to 1Q25).*

● Revenue increased 4.0 % to $142.3 million - a record quarterly level for Genie - from $136.8 million;

● Gross profit decreased 20.2% to $29.8 million from $37.4 million; Gross margin decreased to 20.9% from 27.3% ;

● Income from operations decreased to $1.9 million from $13.5 million;

● Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> decreased to $2.8 million from $14.4 million;

● Net income attributable to Genie common stockholders and income per diluted share (EPS) attributable to Genie common stockholders of $2.8 million and $0.11 compared to $10.4 million and $0.40 , respectively;

------

● Cash and cash equivalents, short and long-term restricted cash, and marketable equity securities totaled $199.8 million at March 31, 2026 ;

● Genie will pay a $0.075 per share quarterly dividend to Class A and Class B common stockholders on or about June 2<sup>nd</sup>with a record date of May 22<sup>nd</sup>.

*<sup>1</sup>* *Adjusted EBITDA for all periods presented is a non-GAAP measure intended to provide useful information that supplements the core operating results in accordance with GAAP for Genie Energy or the relevant segment. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures at the end of this release for an explanation of this non-GAAP metric, as well as reconciliations to its most directly comparable GAAP measures.*

**<u>Segment Highlights</u>**

**Genie Retail Energy (GRE)**

GRE's 1Q26 revenue increased 1.7% to $134.8 million from $132.5 million in 1Q25 primarily reflecting volatility in energy commodity markets resulting in higher energy prices. Income from operations decreased 60.6% to $6.6 million from $16.9 million, and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 59.1% to $7.0 million from $17.1 million. The decreases primarily reflect increased commodity cost and increased customer acquisition expense compared to 1Q25.

**Genie Renewables (GREW)**

GREW's 1Q26 revenue increased 74.3% to $7.6 million from $4.3 million in 1Q25, driven by sales from Genie Solar's inventory of solar panels as well as by expansion of some of the segment's new initiatives. GREW's 1Q26 loss from operations increased to $(2.4) million from $(0.9) million in 1Q25 reflecting a write down of the carrying value of the remaining solar panel inventory and increased investment in new business initiatives.

Genie Solar completed and powered up its Lansing, NY community solar project in 4Q25 and expects to complete construction and turn on its remaining pre-operational community solar project in 2Q26. Genie Solar is expected to be profitable throughout the remainder of 2026.

**<u>Balance Sheet Highlights</u>**

As of March 31, 2026, Genie reported cash and cash equivalents, short and long-term restricted cash, and marketable equity securities of $199.8 million.

Total assets as of March 31, 2026 were $376.5 million. Liabilities totaled $131.2 million, and working capital (current assets less current liabilities) totaled $188.4 million.

**<u>Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the First Quarter of 2026</u>**

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), Genie Energy discloses Adjusted EBITDA for GRE and on a consolidated basis. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure.

Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Genie's measure of consolidated Adjusted EBITDA starts with income from operations and adds back depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation and deducts impairment of assets and equity in the loss of equity method investees, net.

Management believes that Genie's measure of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of Genie's or GRE's core operating results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, as relevant indicators of core operational strengths in its financial and operational decision-making.

Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate operating performance in relation to Genie's competitors. Disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA may be useful to investors in evaluating performance and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, Genie Energy has historically reported Adjusted EBITDA and believes it is commonly used by readers of financial information in assessing performance. Therefore, the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in financial reporting at this time.

Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA as well as the GAAP measures revenue, gross profit, and income from operations, as well as net income, on a consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to Genie's historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated.

Although depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, they primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. Genie's operating results exclusive of depreciation and amortization are therefore useful indicators of its current performance.

Stock-based compensation recognized by Genie Energy and other companies may not be comparable because of the various valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of types of awards that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation is excluded from Genie's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results of Genie's core business with the results of other companies. However, stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for Genie Energy for the foreseeable future and an important part of employees' compensation that impacts their performance.

Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, revenue, gross profit, income from operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income, basic and diluted earnings per share or other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Genie's measurement of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

------

Impairment of assets is a component of income (loss) from operations that is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The impairment of assets is primarily dictated by events and circumstances outside the control of management that trigger an impairment analysis. While there may be similar charges in other periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of Genie's continuing operations.

Following are the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis and for GRE to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, income from operations.
