OMAHA, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Green Plains Inc. (NASDAQ:GPRE) (鈥淕reen Plains鈥� or the 鈥渃ompany鈥�) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2025. Net loss attributable to the company was $72.2 million, or $(1.09) per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to the company of $24.4 million, or ($0.38) per diluted share, for the same period in 2024. The results for the quarter include $44.9 million in non-cash charges primarily related to the sale of non-core assets and an equity method investment, as well as impairments of equipment and assets held for sale. The company also incurred $2.5 million in restructuring costs related to its ongoing transformation initiatives. Revenues were $552.8 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $618.8 million for the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $16.4 million compared with $5.0 million for the same period in the prior year.

鈥淲e executed several key initiatives this quarter to sustain reliable, safe operations, improve efficiencies and enhance our operating performance by rigorous management of our most critical metrics,鈥� said Michelle Mapes, Interim Principal Executive Officer. 鈥淏y exiting non-core assets and activities and focusing on our platform, we鈥檝e streamlined the business and sharpened execution. Our team delivered strong results with 99% utilization across the operating platform, demonstrating the success of the structural improvements made available by our operational excellence initiatives. With the cost reductions implemented during the first half of the year, we are on pace to exceed the $50 million in annualized savings target. This new expense base positions us to exit the year 鈥� and enter 2026 鈥� as a leaner, more agile company. Our improved cost efficiency enables stronger earnings leverage from higher ethanol margins, firming corn oil prices, growing export demand, and a constructive corn crop outlook. With construction of our carbon capture project nearing completion, we鈥檙e well positioned to drive more dollars to the bottom line in the second half and beyond."

鈥淩ecent favorable federal government policy decisions have reinforced our strategy to produce low-CI feedstocks and fuels,鈥� added Mapes. 鈥淒emand for our low-CI corn oil, a preferred feedstock into renewable diesel, remains strong. Construction of the carbon compression infrastructure at our Nebraska facilities is progressing on schedule and we remain on track to begin carbon sequestration early in the fourth quarter. The extension of the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit through 2029, the removal of the indirect land use change penalty, and the ring fencing of North American feedstocks provides critical policy support and long-term validation of our carbon reduction strategy, upgrading the consistent earnings power of our platform.鈥�

鈥淲e took meaningful steps during the quarter to improve our financial position, including reducing working capital investments with our Eco-Energy marketing arrangement, monetizing non-core assets, lowering expenses, and finalizing financing agreements to align with our strategic goals,鈥� added Phil Boggs, Chief Financial Officer. 鈥淓xtending the maturity of our near-term debt enhances flexibility as we work toward the execution of our decarbonization initiatives. We remain focused on operating safely, driving efficiency, managing costs, and strengthening our balance sheet to position the company for sustained financial performance.鈥�

Highlights and Recent Developments

• Completed the sale of our 50% investment in GP Turnkey Tharaldson LLC as of June 30, 2025, for $25 million

Results of Operations

Green Plains鈥� ethanol production segment sold 193.6 million gallons of ethanol during the second quarter of 2025, compared with 208.5 million gallons for the same period in 2024. The consolidated ethanol crush margin was $26.3 million for the second quarter of 2025 inclusive of the sale of accumulated RINs of $22.6 million, compared with ethanol crush margin of $22.7 million for the same period in 2024. The consolidated ethanol crush margin is the ethanol production segment鈥檚 operating income, which includes renewable corn oil and Ultra-High Protein, before depreciation and amortization, and impairment of assets held for sale, plus marketing and agribusiness fees, nonrecurring decommissioning costs, and nonethanol operating activities.

Consolidated revenues decreased $66.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily driven by our agribusiness and energy services segment as a result of the company ceasing a third-party ethanol marketing agreement with Tharaldson Ethanol Plant I LLC.

Net loss attributable to Green Plains increased $47.9 million primarily due to a loss on sale of assets and equity method investment of $31.0 million and an impairment of assets held for sale of $10.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased $11.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with the same period last year due to a change in operating strategy and the sale of accumulated RINs partially offset by weaker margins in our ethanol production segment. Interest expense increased $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with the same period in 2024 primarily due to amortization of loan fees related to the issuance and modification of warrants in conjunction with access to a short-term line of credit and an amendment on our Junior Notes as well as decreased capitalized interest. Income tax expense was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with income tax benefit of $0.3 million for the same period in 2024, primarily due to an increase in the valuation allowance recorded against certain deferred tax assets related to gains (losses) on derivatives.

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.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, segment EBITDA and consolidated ethanol crush margins to measure the company鈥檚 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 restructuring costs, loss on sale of assets, impairment of assets held for sale and equity method investment and 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 (鈥淕AAP鈥�). These non-GAAP calculations may vary from company to company. Accordingly, the company鈥檚 computation of adjusted EBITDA, segment EBITDA and consolidated ethanol crush margins may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of another company.
