Dear Cashmere Holding Company, also known as Matrix Fuels (OTC: DRCR), has filed its financial results for the first quarter of 2026, highlighting a significant transition toward recycling waste oil for energy and lubrication applications. The company, an emerging diversified holding company, reported that the Q1 financials reflect a repositioning phase, including the spin-out of its technology and gaming assets into a newly formed entity. This new company is being prepared for a potential initial public offering on a major U.S. exchange at an appropriate time, with the transaction reflected on DRCR’s balance sheet at par value.
Equity in the new technology company is expected to be issued to shareholders of record as of December 31, 2025. Shareholders will be contacted with instructions regarding the issuance, which the company believes represents a compelling opportunity for shareholder value creation. As part of its strategic pivot, DRCR is advancing toward the acquisition of a waste oil recycling facility in the United Arab Emirates, having completed due diligence and negotiations. Management is currently finalizing contractual documentation and remains highly optimistic about closing the deal in the near term, though there can be no assurance the transaction will complete.
The company anticipates announcing a newly constituted board of directors shortly. The incoming board brings over 50 years of combined industry experience and is expected to guide the company into its next phase of growth, with full operational momentum targeted by the third quarter of 2026. Looking ahead, DRCR believes it is well positioned to generate strong future cash flows and profitability through its entry into the waste oil recycling sector. Similar to its previous business model, the company expects this new direction to be relatively low in capital intensity while offering scalable, cash-generative opportunities.
Nicolas Link, Chairman of DRCR, stated: “We are thrilled with the progress we have made in repositioning the Company and the outcome of our negotiations and due diligence regarding the UAE acquisition. Quarter 2 has been focused on executing this transition and preparing the Company for a strong acceleration into Quarter 3.” Link added that operating gaming and technology businesses within an OTC-listed structure across multiple jurisdictions proved increasingly inefficient, with regulatory burdens and costs outweighing any tangible benefit to shareholders. Over several years, the company consistently traded at valuations significantly below its intrinsic value, at times below its cash position. “We believe spinning out these assets into a structure better suited for a major exchange listing provides the optimal pathway to achieving appropriate valuation for shareholders,” Link said.
While the United Arab Emirates is currently experiencing logistical challenges due to regional geopolitical tensions, global oil prices remain elevated. The company expects these pricing dynamics to support strong margins, offsetting logistical complexities. DRCR intends to replicate its waste oil recycling model in additional markets, including Europe and the United States, throughout 2026 and 2027, subject to market conditions and successful execution of its initial operations.
