REX American Resources Corporation (NYSE: REX) (“REX” or “the Company”) today reported financial results for its fiscal 2019 second quarter (“Q2 ‘19”) ended July 31, 2019. REX management will host a conference call and webcast today at 11:00 a.m. ET.

REX American Resources’ Q2 ‘19 results principally reflect its interests in six ethanol production facilities and its refined coal operation. The One Earth Energy, LLC (“One Earth”) and NuGen Energy, LLC (“NuGen”) ethanol production facilities are consolidated, as is the refined coal entity, while those of its four other ethanol plants are reported as equity in income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates. The Company reports results for its two business segments as ethanol and by-products, and refined coal.
REX’s Q2 ‘19 net sales and revenue were $105.9 million compared with $128.8 million in Q2 ‘18. While ethanol and corn oil pricing remained stable on a year-to-year basis, lower Q2 ’19 ethanol production and lower distiller grain pricing led to the decline in year-over-year net sales and revenue. Primarily reflecting these factors and higher corn prices, the Company’s Q2‘19 gross profit for its ethanol and by-products segment was $6.2 million, compared with $13.7 million in Q2 ‘18. As a result, the ethanol and by-products segment income before income taxes was $3.1 million in Q2 ‘19, compared to $10.1 million in Q2 ‘18. The Company’s refined coal operation incurred a $2.2 million gross loss and a $2.0 million loss before income taxes in Q2 ‘19, compared to a $4.3 million gross loss and a loss before income taxes of $4.8 million in Q2 ‘18. REX reported Q2 ‘19 income before income taxes and non-controlling interests of $0.7 million, compared with $4.9 million in the comparable year ago period. While the refined coal operation negatively impacted gross profit and income before income taxes, it contributed a tax benefit of $3.2 million and $7.6 million for Q2 ’19 and Q2 ‘18, respectively. The year-over-year decline in the refined coal gross loss, loss before taxes and the lower year-over-year tax benefits are related to lower production levels.
Net income attributable to REX shareholders in Q2 ‘19 was $2.3 million, compared to $9.2 million in Q2 ‘18. Q2 ‘19 basic and diluted net income per share attributable to REX common shareholders was $0.36, compared to $1.43 per share in Q2 ‘18. Per share results in Q2 ‘19 and Q2 ‘18 are based on 6,318,000 and 6,466,000 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively.

REX American Resources’ Chief Executive Officer, Zafar Rizvi, commented, “Challenging industry conditions persisted in the fiscal 2019 second quarter as we began to be impacted by the rise in corn prices and tightening corn supply related to unfavorable spring planting conditions which led to lower ethanol production. Higher input expenses combined with the decline in DDG pricing and lower ethanol and refined coal production resulted in quarterly earnings per share of $0.36. The industry continues to face headwinds related to small refinery waivers decreasing the Refined Fuel Standard obligations as well as current crop conditions pacing behind historical trends.
“While conditions in fiscal 2019 to date have been challenging, we remain confident in our disciplined operating approach and the value of ethanol as a worldwide fuel supply. We remain focused on near- and long-term opportunities to enhance shareholder value as we seek to leverage our robust balance sheet, including cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in excess of $212 million and working capital of $237 million.”
Balance Sheet
At July 31, 2019, REX had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $212.2 million, $59.8 million of which was at the parent company, and $152.4 million of which was at its consolidated production facilities. This compares with cash and cash equivalents at January 31, 2019, of $203.5 million, $54.8 million of which was at the parent company, and $148.7 million of which was at its consolidated ethanol production facilities.
