Insights

Termination of a key $15.7M project is a clear setback.

Nuvve Holding Corp. has seen its master services agreement for Fresno Economic Opportunities Commission's fleet electrification project effectively terminated. The agreement contemplated approximately $15.7 million in possible estimated fees and expenses, indicating this was a significant commercial opportunity.

The company disputes whether Fresno Economic Opportunities Commission properly terminated the contract, yet it no longer believes the relationship will continue. This suggests the full economic potential of the project is unlikely to be realized, though the exact financial impact depends on how negotiations over owed costs and fees conclude.

Nuvve is currently negotiating reimbursement for services delivered prior to termination, but there is no assurance on the ultimate amount it will receive. Subsequent company filings may clarify how much of the originally anticipated $15.7 million is recovered and how this affects revenue and cash flow for the period that included the project.

Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On February 11, 2026, Nuvve Holding Corp. (the “Company”) determined that the master services agreement, dated May 14, 2024 (the “Agreement”), by and between the Company and Fresno Economic Opportunities Commission (the “FEOC”) had been effectively terminated and provided notice to the FEOC of costs and amounts owed to the Company in connection with the termination. As previously disclosed, the Agreement outlined the general scope of work, timeline, and pricing pursuant to which the Company was to provide services and materials to the FEOC in connection with the FEOC’s fleet electrification program. The total possible estimated fees and expenses payable to the Company by FEOC for services and materials provided in relation to the project under the Agreement was approximately $15.7 million. The termination followed extensive discussions between the Company and the FEOC regarding the Agreement and the FEOC’s willingness to continue pursuing its fleet electrification project. Despite the Company’s substantial efforts to accommodate the FEOC’s requests and procuring multiple alternative options to fulfill certain funding obligations under the Agreement, the FEOC was unwilling to move forward with the project. The Company disputes whether the FEOC properly terminated the Agreement pursuant to its terms and has reserved its rights with respect thereto. However, as a practical matter, the Company no longer reasonably believes that the business relationship contemplated by the Agreement will continue.

The Company is currently in negotiations with the FEOC to determine the amount of costs and fees owed to the Company for services provided prior to the date of termination, as it is entitled to under the Agreement. There can be no assurance as to the amount the Company will ultimately receive from the FEOC for services provided under the Agreement prior to the date of termination.
