REX American Resources’ Q4 ‘14 results principally reflect its interests in seven ethanol production facilities. The operations of One Earth Energy, LLC (“One Earth”) and NuGen Energy, LLC (“NuGen”) are consolidated, while those of its five remaining plants are reported as equity in income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates.
REX’s Q4 ‘14 net sales and revenue were $127.7 million, compared with $146.1 million in Q4 ‘13. Primarily reflecting solid ethanol crush spread margins in Q4 ‘14, the Company’s gross profit rose to $30.0 million, compared to $26.3 million in the prior year period. Reflecting the ethanol industry environment during the period and strong plant operations, Q4 ‘14 equity in income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates increased to $7.9 million, from $7.6 million in Q4 ‘13. The improved quarterly gross profit and income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates resulted in Q4 ‘14 net income from continuing operations before income taxes and non-controlling interests of $33.4 million, compared with $27.9 million in Q4 ‘13.
Net income attributable to REX shareholders in Q4 ‘14 rose to $20.3 million, compared to $15.9 million in Q4 ‘13, while Q4 ‘14 diluted net income per share attributable to REX common shareholders was a record $2.55 per share, compared to $1.95 per share in Q4 ‘13. Per share results in Q4 ‘14 and Q4 ‘13 are based on 7,968,000 and 8,129,000 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively.
Net sales and revenue for the twelve months ended January 31, 2015 declined to $572.2 million, from $666.0 million in fiscal 2013, while gross profit for fiscal 2014 more than doubled to $141.9 million, from $64.3 million in fiscal 2013. Fiscal 2014 equity in income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates also increased substantially to $32.2 million, compared with $17.2 million in fiscal 2013. This led to fiscal 2014 income from continuing operations before income taxes and non-controlling interests more than doubling to $152.8 million, compared with $59.9 million in fiscal 2013.
For fiscal 2014, REX reported net income attributable to REX shareholders of $87.3 million, a 149% increase compared with $35.1 million in fiscal 2013, while diluted net income per share attributable to REX common shareholders rose to a record $10.76 in fiscal 2014, compared to $4.29 per share in fiscal 2013. Per share results for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015 and January 31, 2014, are based on 8,118,000 and 8,180,000 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively.
REX CEO, Stuart Rose, commented, “We are pleased to report record fourth quarter and full year earnings and earnings per share, reflecting the strength during fiscal 2014 of the ethanol industry as well as the strategic locations and operational efficiency of our plants and our talented and dedicated operating team.”
