Insights

Green Plains' Q2 2024 results show significant improvement despite ongoing challenges. The $24.4 million net loss is a substantial reduction from the $52.6 million loss in Q2 2023. EBITDA improved by $19.7 million to $4.8 million, driven by stronger ethanol production results.

The consolidated crush margin of $22.7 million is particularly noteworthy, indicating better operational efficiency. Record platform renewable corn oil yields and Ultra-High Protein yields in June suggest ongoing operational improvements. The company's outlook for Q3 and H2 2024 appears positive, with expectations of profitability based on current market conditions.

However, investors should note the ongoing strategic review process, which could lead to significant changes in the company's structure or operations. The planned sale of the Birmingham terminal to repay debt is a positive step towards streamlining operations and improving cash flow.

Green Plains' focus on high-value products like Ultra-High Protein and Clean Sugar Technology demonstrates a strategic shift towards higher-margin segments. The company's emphasis on low carbon-intensity ethanol production, particularly through the 'Advantage Nebraska' carbon strategy, positions it well for the emerging sustainable fuel market, including potential SAF production.

The commissioning of the Clean Sugar Technology facility is a significant milestone, potentially opening new market opportunities. However, the slower-than-expected ramp-up suggests potential challenges in scaling this new technology.

The ethanol market shows signs of improvement, with margins strengthening towards the end of Q2. This, combined with improved corn oil pricing and strong Ultra-High Protein demand, suggests a potentially stronger H2 2024 for the company and possibly the broader ethanol industry.

The ongoing strategic review process is a important development for investors to monitor. The formation of a Special Committee and engagement of financial and legal advisors indicates a serious exploration of various options, including potential M&A activities. However, the lack of a definitive timeline and the company's cautious communication suggest that any major changes may not be imminent.

The planned sale of the Birmingham terminal highlights the company's efforts to streamline operations and reduce debt. This transaction, expected to close in Q3, should positively impact the company's financial position by reducing higher-cost debt.

Investors should also note the potential impact of the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit, which could provide significant benefits to Green Plains' low carbon-intensity ethanol production. This aligns with broader regulatory trends favoring cleaner fuel production.

OMAHA, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Green Plains Inc. (NASDAQ:GPRE) (“Green Plains” or the “company”) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2024. Net loss attributable to the company was $24.4 million, or $(0.38) per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to the company of $52.6 million, or ($0.89) per diluted share, for the same period in 2023. Revenues were $618.8 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared with $857.6 million for the same period last year. EBITDA was $4.8 million compared with ($15.0) million for the same period in the prior year.

“While the second quarter started with continued weakness, margins began to improve heading into the third quarter and we expect to return to profitability for the quarter based on current markets across our products and setting up a stronger second half of the year overall,” said Todd Becker, President and Chief Executive Officer. “During the second quarter we continued to progress toward our transformation goals, from new high protein capacity to carbon capture to commissioning Clean Sugar. We saw consistent run rates across our platform with a plant utilization rate of 93%. In June we achieved an average yield of over 3.5 pounds of protein per bushel and we believe we can grow from there as we continue to run our systems more effectively. With the forward ethanol production margins and corn oil pricing improving, combined with strong customer demand for our high protein products, we are set up to have a strong back half of the year.”

“Our ‘Advantage Nebraska’ carbon strategy remains on track for a second half of 2025 start as our capture equipment has been ordered, with construction anticipated to begin in the next several months,” commented Becker. “Because of this progress, we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on the early days of the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit which should be beneficial for delivering increased earnings. Trailblazer continues to make great progress and we anticipate that with our three Nebraska plants, representing 287 million gallons of production, we will be one of the largest and earliest producers of low carbon-intensity ethanol in the U.S. This also positions us to supply low-CI ethanol as a feedstock for future alcohol to jet SAF production, in addition to demand for low carbon molecules overall.”

“The world’s first commercial scale Clean Sugar Technology facility began commissioning during the second quarter and we continue to make progress in debottlenecking,” added Becker. “We believe this game-changing technology has the potential to usher in a new era of sustainable processing, as our dextrose has up to a 40% lower carbon-intensity than that produced at a wet mill. Customer demand remains robust and while ramp-up has been slower than expected, we remain fully confident in the deployment of this technology.”

The company announced a strategic review process in February 2024 to explore a broad range of opportunities to enhance long-term shareholder value, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, divestitures, a merger or sale, partnerships and financings. The Board of Directors continues to progress the strategic review process and has formed a Special Committee to assist the Board with the evaluation of various alternatives. In addition, the company has engaged Bank of America as its financial advisor and Vinson & Elkins LLP as its legal advisor. There is no deadline or definitive timetable for completion of the strategic review process, and there can be no assurances that the process will result in a transaction or any other outcome. The company does not intend to make any further public comment regarding the review until the Board has approved a specific action or otherwise determines that additional disclosure is appropriate or required.

“As one part of our ongoing strategic review, we have entered into a definitive agreement to sell our unit train terminal in Birmingham,” concluded Becker. “The proceeds will be used to help repay the outstanding balance of our Green Plains Partners term loan. Eliminating this higher priced debt will support generation of free cash flow and help to simplify and streamline the business, while allowing us to focus on our core strategic initiatives. We anticipate this transaction will close in the third quarter.”

Highlights and Recent Developments

Executed construction management agreements and ordered major equipment necessary to capture carbon from Nebraska facilities as part of ‘Advantage Nebraska’ strategy

Results of Operations

Green Plains’ ethanol production segment sold 208.5 million gallons of ethanol during the second quarter of 2024, compared with 194.8 million gallons for the same period in 2023. The consolidated ethanol crush margin was $22.7 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared with $4.6 million for the same period in 2023. The consolidated ethanol crush margin is the ethanol production segment’s operating income before depreciation and amortization, which includes renewable corn oil and Ultra-High Protein, plus marketing and agribusiness fees, nonrecurring decommissioning costs, and nonethanol operating activities.

Consolidated revenues decreased $238.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared with the same period in 2023, primarily due to lower weighted average selling prices on ethanol, distillers grains and renewable corn oil, partially offset by higher volumes sold on ethanol, distillers grains and renewable corn oil within our ethanol production segment. Revenues were also lower within our agribusiness and energy services segment as a result of decreased ethanol and distillers grains trading volumes.

Net loss attributable to Green Plains decreased $28.3 million and EBITDA increased $19.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared with the same period last year, primarily due to higher margins in our ethanol production segment. Interest expense decreased $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared with the same period in 2023 primarily due to lower working capital revolver balances. Income tax benefit was $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared with income tax benefit of $1.0 million for the same period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in the valuation allowance recorded against certain deferred tax assets for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Segment Information

The company reports the financial and operating performance for the following two operating segments: (1) ethanol production, which includes the production, storage and transportation of ethanol, distillers grains, Ultra-High Protein and renewable corn oil and (2) agribusiness and energy services, which includes grain handling and storage, commodity marketing and merchant trading for company-produced and third-party ethanol, distillers grains, Ultra-High Protein, renewable corn oil, natural gas and other commodities.

As a result of the Merger, the partnership's operations are included in the ethanol production operating segment. The following changes were made to the company's operating segments:

The revenue and operating results from fuel storage and transportation services previously disclosed within the partnership segment are now included within the ethanol production segment.
Intersegment activities between the partnership and Green Plains Trade associated with ethanol storage and transportation services previously treated like third-party transactions and eliminated on a consolidated level are now eliminated within the ethanol production segment.

Intersegment activities between the partnership and Green Plains Trade associated with terminal services transacted with the agribusiness and energy services segment will continue to be eliminated on a consolidated level.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, segment EBITDA and consolidated ethanol crush margins to measure the company’s financial performance and to internally manage its businesses. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization excluding the change in right-of-use assets and debt issuance costs. Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments related to our proportional share of EBITDA adjustments of our equity method investees. Management believes these measures provide useful information to investors for comparison with peer and other companies. These measures should not be considered alternatives to net income or segment operating income, which are determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP calculations may vary from company to company. Accordingly, the company’s computation of adjusted EBITDA, segment EBITDA and consolidated ethanol crush margins may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of another company.
