OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Green Plains Inc. (NASDAQ:GPRE) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2020. Net loss attributable to the company was $8.2 million, or $(0.24) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2020 compared with a net loss of $45.3 million, or $(1.13) per diluted share, for the same period in 2019. Revenues were $418.0 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared with $630.6 million for the same period last year.

“Our efforts toward a total transformation of Green Plains continue to make progress as our second quarter saw benefits from all aspects of our plan,” said Todd Becker, president and chief executive officer. “Our positive second quarter adjusted EBITDA of $17.9 million and positive free cash flow resulted from contributions of our high-quality alcohol production, Project 24 initiatives, high protein production and another record quarter in our cattle business. Overall, our production platform achieved the highest per gallon margin in seven quarters. Our results included a positive contribution from our York, Nebraska biorefinery as we executed on a number of sales into the sanitizer and disinfectant markets. Our proudest and most impactful initiative of the quarter came from our employees who led efforts to get cleaning products containing York’s high-quality alcohol into local communities through our donation program to help stop the spread of COVID-19.”

The Company continued to execute on its Project 24 and protein strategy initiatives during the quarter. In July, Green Plains Fairmont completed its Project 24 upgrade and is starting up operations, which will result in significantly lower operating costs combined with a reduction in its carbon footprint. The Company has now completed over 55% of the originally planned Project 24 initiatives. Green Plains Mount Vernon’s Project 24 conversion is underway and is expected to be in service during the fourth quarter 2020. Project 24 is expected to be complete by the end of the first quarter 2021, and to drive overall operating expense below $0.24 per gallon as the technology is integrated across the platform.

“Our transformation to Green Plains 2.0 is gaining momentum with the startup of Shenandoah’s high-protein facility now complete, the announced upgrade to USP grade alcohol at York and Wood River, and continuing innovation and development in novel feed ingredients in coordination with Optimal Aqua,” added Becker. “As we begin to engage with various partnerships to enhance the quality and nutritional factors of our high protein products in the coming months, our transformation will continue to accelerate. Our balance sheet remains strong, as we ended the quarter with over $183 million in cash, and expect to have ample liquidity and access to project based capital to continue our transformation.”

“With Green Plains Shenandoah’s high-protein system achieving 100% production of quality high protein ingredients to supply our pet and aquaculture customers, we remain confident in deploying this technology across our production platform. For this reason, we chose our Wood River, Nebraska facility to be the second location for implementation of high protein production,” commented Becker. “We have chosen Fluid Quip Technologies to engineer, design and construct the facility and expect completion late in the second quarter of 2021. The recent approval of a $75 million dollar loan facility to help fund the construction of the second and third high protein production facilities further validates this strategy.”

Results of OperationsGreen Plains sold 149.9 million gallons of ethanol during the second quarter of 2020, compared with 224.0 million gallons for the same period in 2019. The adjusted consolidated ethanol crush margin was $13.9 million, or $0.09 per gallon, for the second quarter of 2020, compared with $(19.9) million, or $(0.09) per gallon, for the same period in 2019. The consolidated ethanol crush margin is the ethanol production segment’s operating income before depreciation and amortization, which includes corn oil and high protein corn meal, plus intercompany storage, transportation and other fees, net of related expenses.

Consolidated revenues decreased $212.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with the same period in 2019, due primarily to lower production volumes of ethanol, distillers grains and corn oil.

Operating loss decreased $27.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with the same period last year. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020, decreased $1.6 million compared with the same period in 2019. Income tax benefit was $11.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared with $15.3 million for the same period in 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $37.4 million due to equity earnings from our Green Plains Cattle Company joint venture, as well as higher earnings from our ethanol production segment driven by FCC Grade alcohol sales from our York, Neb. location.

In the second quarter, the company filed its preliminary 2019 federal income tax return, as well as a refund claim with the IRS to carry back its 2019 NOL to prior years. As a result, the company recorded an additional income tax benefit of approximately $5.5 million during the second quarter related to the CARES Act in addition to adjustments to certain valuation allowances.

Segment InformationThe company reports the financial and operating performance for the following four operating segments: (1) ethanol production, which includes the production of ethanol, including industrial-grade alcohol, distillers grains and corn oil, (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, corn oil, natural gas and other commodities, (3) food and ingredients, which includes food-grade corn oil and (4) partnership, which includes fuel storage and transportation services. Intercompany fees charged to the ethanol production segment for storage and logistics services, grain procurement and product sales are included in the partnership and agribusiness and energy services segments and eliminated upon consolidation. Third-party costs of grain consumed and revenues from product sales are reported directly in the ethanol production segment.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresManagement uses 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 tax expense, depreciation and amortization excluding the change in right-of-use assets. Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments related to operational results of Green Plains Cattle prior to its disposition which are recorded as discontinued operations, and our proportional share of EBITDA adjustments of our equity method investees and noncash goodwill impairment. 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 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.
