MIAMI, FL, May 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RenX Enterprises Corp. (NASDAQ:RENX) ("RenX" or the "Company") today announced three operational updates supporting the planned deployment of the Microtec UTM 1200 Turbo Mill at its Myakka City, Florida facility: (1) the initiation of an customer sample run at MTDH Germany GmbH ("Microtec"); (2) the acquisition of a spare parts package bundled with the mill and (3) the funding of contract deposits to the Company's site commissioning and electrical infrastructure partners.

RenX has shipped supersacs of screened woody biomass feedstock from Myakka City to Microtec's facility in Germany. There, the material will be pre-processed on a Microtec milling line to produce finished particle cuts representative of the output the UTM 1200 will manufacture once installed and commissioned at Myakka City. The processed output will be distributed as qualification samples to prospective commercial counterparties, enabling them to evaluate Microtec-produced finished product against their specifications before on-site production begins.

In parallel, the Company has acquired a spare parts package for the UTM 1200, which will be shipped together with the mill from Germany. The Company purchased the spare parts package to reduce the risk of equipment downtime during early commissioning and ramp-up and to ensure that wear items and frequently-serviced consumable parts will be immediately available on-site upon installation. The acquisition and bundling of the spare parts package has resulted in a modest delay to the mill's originally scheduled shipment from Germany. However, a preview of the completed mill is available on the Company's website: https://www.renxent.com/media.

RenX has also paid contract deposits under previously signed engagements with its mechanical integration contractor and regional electric utility. These deposits cover on-site mill commissioning, fabrication and mechanical integration, and the electrical interconnection infrastructure required to energize the milling line. The mechanical scope covers fabrication and installation of the material handling and processing system surrounding the UTM 1200, including a metering hopper, feed and transfer conveyors, a screening assembly with magnetic separation, cyclone-based dust management, mill and screen stands, interconnecting ductwork, and integrated electrical controls. The electrical interconnection scope includes a dedicated high-capacity transformer, three-phase underground primary service, and metering infrastructure sized for the mill's operating load. These deposits authorize each counterparty to advance its respective scope ahead of the mill's arrival at Myakka City.

"Each of these workstreams reflects how we are preparing the platform for live operation rather than waiting for the equipment to arrive," said David Villarreal, Chief Executive Officer of RenX Enterprises. "Pre-processing our own feedstock at Microtec's facility allows us to put real, finished material in front of prospective customers before our line is energized. Procuring spares with the mill and funding the electrical and mechanical scopes in parallel positions us to compress the time between physical delivery and the start of production."

The Company intends to provide additional updates as the mill arrives on-site at Myakka City and installation and commissioning activities advance.
