Key Strengths & Strategy (as disclosed to the SEC)
- Our eight facilities currently in operation are capable of processing approximately 246 million bushels of corn and producing 730 million gallons of ethanol, 1.7 million tons of distillers grains and Ultra-High Protein, and 254 million pounds of renewable corn oil. • Agribusiness and Energy Services.
- Agribusiness and Energy Services Segment Our agribusiness and energy services segment includes grain storage at our ethanol plants of approximately 12.0 million bushels, detailed in the following table: (1) Plant idled in January 2025.
- Our internally developed operating margin management system allows us to monitor commodity price risk exposure in the spot market and on the forward curve at each of our operations and helps us to lock in favorable margins, when available, or if appropriate, temporarily reduce production during periods of compressed margins.
- This allows us to purchase much of the corn we need directly from farmers throughout the year.
Partnerships
- Ethanol Marketing Agreement with Eco-Energy, LLC On April 16, 2025, the company entered into an ethanol marketing agreement with Eco-Energy, LLC.
