Item 8.01 Other Events
On April 1, 2016, The Andersons, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing it has entered into an agreement to sell eight of its facilities in Iowa to MaxYield Cooperative of West Bend, Iowa. The Andersons acquired the eight grain and agronomy locations as a part of its 2012 acquisition from Green Plains Grain Company. The Tennessee assets acquired during that same transaction will remain a part of the Company. This transaction does not divest or otherwise involve the Company's ethanol facility or recently acquired Nutra-Flo facilities in Iowa. This transaction is subject to final board approvals by the buyer and seller and is expected to be completed in the current year.
The press release is attached as exhibit 99.1 to this filing.
