Dayton, OH - Thursday, December 4, 2025 - 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 third quarter 2025.

 

REX American Resources’ fiscal third 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.

 

Third Quarter 2025 Results

 

REX reported Q3 ’25 net sales and revenue of $175.6 million compared to Q3 ’24 net sales and revenue of $174.9 million. Third quarter 2025 gross profit for the Company was $36.1 million, compared with $39.7 million in Q3 ’24. The decrease in gross profit was primarily the result of lower ethanol and distillers grain pricing. The Company reported interest and other income of $3.2 million in Q3 ’25, compared to $4.6 million in Q3 ’24. This led to Q3 ’25 income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests of $35.5 million, compared with $39.5 million in Q3 ’24.

 

Net income attributable to REX shareholders in Q3 ’25 was $23.4 million, compared to $24.5 million in Q3 ’24. Third quarter ’25 diluted net income per share attributable to REX common shareholders was $0.71, compared to $0.69 per share in Q3 ’24. Per share results for Q3 ’25 and Q3 ’24 are based on 33,002,000 and 35,445,000 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively.

 

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

 

REX has made progress on the expansion of ethanol production at the One Earth facility, and the facility is on track for 2026 completion.

 

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. Final permitting decision for the sequestration portion of the project is expected to be completed in June 2026 according to the published EPA timeline.

 

Capital expenditures at the end of the third quarter related to the One Earth carbon capture and sequestration project and related expansion of ethanol production capacity at the Gibson City location totaled $155.8 million. The Company’s combined budget for completion of the projects is $220-$230 million.

 

 

Balance Sheet

 

As of October 31, 2025, REX had $335.5 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments available and no bank debt.

 

Management Commentary

 

“REX continues to deliver value to shareholders, marking our 21st consecutive quarter of positive earnings,” said Zafar Rizvi, Chief Executive Officer of REX. “As our ethanol expansion and carbon capture projects advance, we are evaluating how best to leverage the 45Z tax credits to further enhance shareholder value. Most importantly, our team remains laser-focused on our core business, which continues to perform strongly and is well-positioned to deliver another profitable quarter and positive cash flow. We are excited about the opportunities ahead as we look forward to a successful 2026 and as we enter the fiscal fourth quarter.”
