Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEVO), a leading renewable chemicals and next-generation biofuels company, today responded to a limited court order relating to the ButamaxTM Advanced Biofuels, LLC (Butamax) appeal of the U.S. District Court of Delaware’s decision to dismiss its Preliminary Injunction Motion.

“We anticipated Butamax’s appeal and were satisfied to see that in denying the preliminary injunction request of Butamax the judge’s opinion ‘that plaintiff (Butamax) does not hold a valid patent, nor would the defendant (Gevo) infringe if it did’ remains intact,” said Brett Lund, Executive Vice President and General Counsel. “The judge did issue a temporary order while Butamax appeals to the Federal Court. Under the temporary order, Gevo remains free to operate in markets such as chemicals, jet fuel, marine fuel, small engine fuel and all other markets, except Gevo may not supply the automotive fuel blendstock market with biobased isobutanol from our Luverne facility during the appeals process. We disagree with that decision and have filed an appeal of the order. Testing for automobile fuels will continue, but with non-biobased isobutanol.”
