DAYTON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- REX American Resources Corporation (“REX� or the “Company�) (NYSE: REX), a leading ethanol production company, today announced financial and operational results for the Company’s fiscal first quarter 2025.

REX American Resources� fiscal first quarter 2025 results principally reflect its interests in six ethanol production facilities. The One Earth Energy, LLC (“One Earth�) and NuGen Energy, LLC (“NuGen�) ethanol production facilities are consolidated, while the four other ethanol plants are reported as equity in income of unconsolidated affiliates.

First Quarter 2025 Results

REX reported Q1 �25 net sales and revenue of $158.3 million, compared to Q1 �24 net sales and revenue of $161.2 million. The year-over-year net sales and revenue decrease primarily reflects lower volumes and lower sales prices for distiller grains, offset by improved ethanol pricing. First quarter 2025 gross profit for the Company was $14.3 million, compared with $14.5 million in Q1 �24. The Company reported interest and other income of $4.2 million in Q1 �25, compared to $5.9 million in Q1 �24. This led to Q1 �25 income before income taxes and non-controlling interests of $13.6 million, compared with $16.0 million in Q1 �24.

Net income attributable to REX shareholders in Q1 �25 was $8.7 million, compared to $10.2 million in Q1 �24. First quarter �25 diluted net income per share attributable to REX common shareholders was $0.51, compared to $0.58 per share in Q1 �24. Per share results for Q1 �25 and Q1 �24 are based on 16,939,000 and 17,664,000 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively.

Update on One Earth Energy Ethanol Production Expansion and Carbon Capture Projects

REX has continued progress on the expansion of ethanol production at the One Earth facility. The team is currently reviewing optimization of certain equipment with an eye toward efficiency and long-term value. Project completion is anticipated in 2026.

As previously discussed, REX substantially completed construction of the capture and compression portions of its One Earth carbon capture and sequestration project at the Company’s Gibson City, Illinois location during Fiscal Year 2024. Currently, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Class VI injection well permitting process is ongoing, and final permitting decision for the sequestration portion of the project is expected to be completed in January 2026, according to the published EPA timeline.

Capital expenditures at the end of the first quarter related to the One Earth Energy carbon capture and sequestration project and related expansion of ethanol production capacity at the Gibson City location totaled $122.7 million. The Company’s combined budget for completion of the projects is $220-$230 million.

Share Repurchases

During fiscal first quarter 2025, the Company repurchased 822,256 shares, for total consideration of $32,727,232 million. This represented approximately 4.7% of outstanding shares and brings the cumulative percentage to 6.8% since December 2024. After these repurchases, a total of 1,181,963 shares remained available to purchase under existing board authorization. Total shares outstanding as of April 30, 2025 stood at 16,472,229.

Balance Sheet

As of April 30, 2025, REX had $315.9 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments available and no bank debt.

Management Commentary

“The first quarter continued to reflect what we at REX take pride in—strong financial performance, delivering value to our shareholders, and positioning ourselves for the future,� said Zafar Rizvi, Chief Executive Officer of REX. “We achieved our 19th consecutive quarter of positive earnings in our core ethanol business, repurchased more than 822,000 shares, and continued evaluating how best to advance our growth initiatives to meet future challenges. We accomplished all of this—and plan to take similar steps moving forward—because we believe that staying true to our core values is the best strategy in an uncertain environment. This commitment not only supports current growth and profitability, but also lays the groundwork for long-term success. We remain dedicated to our mission of delivering results and meeting even greater challenges ahead.�
