Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 -   Principal Activity and Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although South Dakota Soybean Processors, LLC (the “Company”, “LLC”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year due in part to the seasonal nature of some of the Company’s businesses. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2012 has been derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Urethane Soy Systems Company (USSC), which was the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. The effects of all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. During 2011, the Company determined to discontinue operations of its polyurethane segment, including USSC, and put the assets and business up for sale. For all periods presented, amounts associated with the polyurethane segment have been classified as discontinued operations on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

On October 16, 2012, USSC’s Board of Directors and the Company’s Board of Managers approved the legal dissolution of USSC, and on December 7, 2012, USSC was formally dissolved as a corporation.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2013.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not expect the future adoption of any such pronouncements to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or members’ equity.

Note 2 -   Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are considered past due when payments are not received on a timely basis in accordance with the Company’s credit terms, which is generally 30 days from invoice date. Accounts considered uncollectible are written off. The Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on historical experience, its evaluation of the current status of receivables, and unusual circumstances, if any.

The following table presents the aging analysis of trade receivables as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

	March 31,		December 31,
	2013		2012
Past due:
Less than 30 days past due	$	3,005,506	$	2,717,120
31-90 days past due		730,513		185,168
Greater than 90 days past due		-		45
Total past due		3,736,019		2,902,333
Current		24,999,543		27,693,829
Totals	$	28,735,562	$	30,596,162

The following table provides information regarding the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts receivable of continued operations as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

	March 31,		December 31,
	2013		2012
Balances, beginning of period	$	-	$	-
Amounts charged (credited) to costs and expenses		-		(7,838	)
Additions (deductions)		-		7,838
Balances, end of period	$	-	$	-

In general, cash is applied to the oldest outstanding invoice first, unless payment is for a specified invoice. The Company, on a case by case basis, may charge a late fee of 1 ½% per month on past due receivables.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company entered into an agreement as of March 21, 2013 with CoBank to amend and restate its Master Loan Agreement (MLA), which includes both the revolving term loan and the seasonal loan discussed in Note 7. Under the terms and conditions of the MLA, CoBank agreed to make advances to the Company for up to $12,900,000 on the revolving term loan. The available commitment decreases in scheduled periodic increments of $1,300,000 every six months starting September 20, 2013 until maturity on March 20, 2018. The principal balance outstanding on the revolving term loan was $12,900,000 and $14,200,000 as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. There were no remaining commitments available to borrow on the revolving term loan as of March 31, 2013.

Under this agreement, the Company is subject to compliance with standard financial covenants and the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions with CoBank as of March 31, 2013.

Effective March 1, 2013, the State of South Dakota Department of Transportation agreed to loan the Brookings County Regional Railway Authority a total sum of $964,070 for purposes of making improvements to the railway infrastructure near the Company’s soybean processing facility in Volga, South Dakota. The interest rate on the loan is 2.0% per year. Principal and interest payments are due annually with the first payment due on June 1, 2014 and the final payment due at maturity on June 1, 2020. In consideration of this unsecured loan, the Company agreed to guarantee to the State of South Dakota Department of Transportation the full amount of the loan, plus interest. This guaranty, however, will become a direct obligation of the Company’s on March 1, 2013, when the Company will be responsible for paying the above-described principal and interest payments on an annual basis. There were no advances outstanding on this loan as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The minimum principal payments on long-term debt obligations, assuming the Company will advance the entire amount on the railway improvement loan, are expected to be as follows:

For the twelve-month periods ending March 31:

Note 9 -   Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into contractual arrangements as a means of managing exposure to changes in commodity prices. The Company’s derivative instruments primarily consist of commodity futures, options and forward contracts. Although these contracts may be effective economic hedges of specified risks, they are not designated as, nor accounted for, as hedging instruments. These contracts are recorded in inventory on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value as discussed in Note 11, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the value of the Company’s open futures, options and forward contracts was approximately $1,755,919 and $1,600,783, respectively.

Note 10 -   Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, this guidance establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. The three levels of hierarchy and examples are as follows:

· Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange and commodity derivative contracts listed on the Chicago Board of Trade (“CBOT”).

· Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, or priced with models using highly observable inputs, such as commodity prices using forward future prices.

· Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.

The following tables set forth financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the respective levels to which fair value measurements are classified within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

The Company considers the carrying amount of significant classes of financial instruments on the balance sheets, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, notes receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, to be reasonable estimates of fair value due to their length or maturity. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates the carrying value. The interest rates on the long-term debt are similar to rates the Company would be able to obtain currently in the market.

The Company enters into various commodity derivative instruments, including futures, options, swaps and other agreements. The fair value of the Company’s commodity derivatives is determined using unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments on the CBOT. The Company estimates the fair market value of their finished goods and raw materials inventories using the market price quotations of similar forward future contracts listed on the CBOT and adjusts for the local market adjustments derived from other grain terminals in our area.

The assets of discontinued division represent a nonrecurring level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value measurements were based on managements’ best estimate of fair market value, which includes comparisons to similar assets within the industry.

The Company has patronage investments in other cooperatives and common stock in a privately held entity. There is no market for their patronage credits or the entity’s common shares, and it is impracticable to estimate fair value of the Company’s investments. These investments are carried on the balance sheet at original cost plus the amount of patronage earnings allocated to the Company, less any cash distributions received.

Note 11 -   Business Segment Information

The Company organizes its business units into two reportable segments: soybean processing and polyurethane. Separate management of each segment is required because each segment is subject to different marketing, production, and technology strategies. The soybean processing segment purchases soybeans and processes them in primarily three products: soybean meal, oil and hulls. The polyurethane segment, which was classified as a discontinued operation in 2011, manufactured a soy-based polyol called Soyol^® and its resin systems and sold them to the polyurethane industry. The segments’ accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Market prices are used to report intersegment sales.

Segment information for the three-month periods ended March 31 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

Forward-Looking Statements

The information in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, (including reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or “Commission”), contains “forward-looking statements” that deal with future results, expectations, plans and performance, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Forward-looking statements may include statements which use words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “predict,” “hope,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “future,” “potential,” or the negatives of these words, and all similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Actual results or actual business or other conditions may differ materially from those contemplated by any forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are identified in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

We are not under any duty to update the forward-looking statements contained in this report, nor do we guarantee future results or performance or what future business conditions will be like. We caution you not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.

Executive Overview and Summary

We earned a net profit of approximately $6.9 million for the first three months of 2013. The profit is attributed to a unique set of factors, some of which have carried over from 2012:

· We continued to benefit from favorable soybean quality in terms of oil and protein content.

· We continued to benefit from increased demand for soybean meal and oil, spurred by domestic and international soybean shortages.

· We continued to benefit from the maximization of plant efficiencies and product yields, increasing the quantity of soybeans processed by nearly 4% during the first quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012.

· From a market standpoint, we continued to be well positioned for purchasing soybeans and selling product.

· We realized significant patronage dividend income issued by our financial partners during the first three months of 2013.

We expect to continue to benefit from efficiencies in plant performance and careful management strategies, but there is little doubt a new set of market conditions and challenges will likely impact our ability to continue with the same financial results for the rest of 2013. Some of the challenges are the following:

· With favorable growing conditions, South America’s soybean production has rebounded. As a result, this year’s harvest will bring increased meal and oil products to the market and place greater pressure on our margins.

17

· It is uncertain whether the supply of soybeans will be adequate until the 2013 harvest. The March 1^st Grain Stocks Report indicated that on-farm soybean stocks in South Dakota were down a dramatic 38%. Soybean supplies in South Dakota have been impacted by drought conditions, especially in the southern half of South Dakota. In addition, soybeans produced in our area were shipped to the West coast by an active soybean export program and by processing plants in the more severe drought-impacted areas. As a result, our and other domestic producers’ margins are under tremendous pressure to pay more for soybeans and secure supply in 2013.

· There is always uncertainty in new crop supplies. If inclement weather and other adverse growing conditions affect this year’s growing season, we may be left with an inadequate supply of soybeans going into next year.

Fortunately, our product diversity will continue to play an important role in our ability to work through challenging times. While soybean meal demand is struggling in response to the poor margin structure experienced in the livestock sector, we are experiencing a strong demand for our oil from the biodiesel sector and expect to see a resurgence in restaurant demand for oil as the economy improves.

Revenue – Consolidated revenue increased $24.6 million, or 28.7%, for the first quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase in revenues is primarily due to an increase in average sales price of soybean meal and hulls along with an increase in sales volume of soybean meal. The average sales price of our soybean products increased approximately 46% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase in sale price is primarily due to a poor 2012 crop caused by drought, which caused substantial price increases in many commodities including soybean meal. During the first quarter of 2013, we processed approximately 3.6% in additional soybeans than during the same period of 2012, which increased the sales volume of our soybean products.

Gross Profit/Loss – For the first quarter of 2013, we generated a consolidated gross profit of $6.7 million, compared to $2.7 million for the same period in 2012. The $4.0 million improvement in gross profit is primarily attributed to improved soybean quality within our region and increased demand for soybean meal. While much of the U.S. soybean processors have been dealing with substandard soybean quality due to drought, the locally-grown beans we received have been low in moisture, high in oil and protein content, and producing higher than historical yields. In addition, demand for soybean meal increased primarily because of a decrease in supply of distillers grains, a competing feed substitute for soybean meal.

Operating Expenses – Consolidated administrative expenses, including all selling, general and administrative expenses, increased $142,000, or 22.9%, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase in administrative costs is mainly due to an increase in personnel costs resulting from an accrual for our employee profit-sharing program.

18

Interest Expense – Interest expense increased to $500,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $345,000 in the same period in 2012. This increase is due to increased debt levels used for continuing operations, which resulted from increased inventory quantities and commodity prices. The average debt level during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 is approximately $43.1 million, compared to $24.6 million for the same period in 2012. The increase in interest expense is partially offset by a decrease in interest rates on our senior debt with CoBank. As of March 31, 2013, the interest rate on our seasonal line of credit was 2.96% compared to 4.60% as of March 31, 2012.

Other Non-Operating Income – Other non-operating income, including patronage dividend income, increased $473,000, or 50.2%, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is primarily due to an increase in patronage allocations from our associated cooperatives, including CoBank and Minnesota Soybean Processors.

Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations – In 2011, we discontinued operations of our polyurethane segment, including our wholly-owned subsidiary USSC, and placed for sale the segment’s assets and business. This decision was made because of a history of significant operating losses. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, we generated a loss of $9,000 within this segment, compared to income of $116,000 during the same period in 2012. On December 7, 2012, we officially dissolved USSC.

Net Income/Loss – We generated a net income of $6.9 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $2.8 million during the same period in 2012. The $4.1 million improvement in net income is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit associated with improved soybean quality within our region and increased demand for soybean meal.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operations and borrowings under our two lines of credit which are discussed below under “Indebtedness.” On March 31, 2013, we had working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, of approximately $20.9 million, compared to working capital of approximately $8.4 million on March 31, 2012. Working capital increased between periods primarily due to an increase in net income. Based on our current operating plans, we believe that we will be able to fund our needs for the foreseeable future from cash from operations and revolving lines of credit.

A summary of our cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

	2013			2012
Net cash (used for) operating activities	$	(21,243,152	)	$	(18,485,053	)
Net cash from (used for) investing activities		2,194,314			(65,713	)
Net cash from financing activities		18,756,014			18,550,766

Cash Flows from Operations

The $2.8 million increase in cash flows used for operating activities is primarily attributed to a $22.4 million decrease in accrued commodity purchases during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $15.8 million during the same period in 2012. This decrease in accrued commodity purchases is a result of increased commodity prices.

The increase in cash flows used for operating activities is partially offset by an increase in net income during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012.

19

Cash Flows Used For Investing Activities

The $2.3 million change in cash flows from (used for) investing activities is principally due to receiving a $2.7 million payment from CHS in February 2013 for the retirement of previous patronage allocations. This increase in cash flows from investing activities is partially offset by an increase in the purchase of property and equipment in during the first quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, we spent additional funds on capital improvements to enhance the quality and efficiency of our operations, compared to the same period in 2012.

Cash Flows Used For Financing Activities

The $0.2 million increase in cash flows from financing activities is principally due to a $6.8 million increase in short-term borrowings as a result of the decrease in accrued commodity purchases, as discussed above, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012.

The increase in cash flows from financing activities is partially offset by a $5.1 million distribution to members during the first quarter of 2013. We did not make a member distribution in 2012.

Indebtedness

We have two lines of credit with CoBank, our primary lender, to meet the short and long-term needs of our operations. The first credit line is a revolving long-term loan. Under the terms of this loan, we may borrow funds as needed up to the credit line maximum, or $12.9 million, and then pay down the principal whenever excess cash is available. Repaid amounts may be borrowed up to the available credit line. The available credit line is reduced by $1.3 million every six months from September 20, 2013 to the credit line’s maturity on March 20, 2018. The final payment at maturity is equal to the remaining unpaid principal balance of the loan. We pay a 0.50% annual commitment fee on any funds not borrowed. The principal balance outstanding on the revolving term loan is $12.9 million and $15.5 million as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Under this loan, there are no available funds to borrow as of March 31, 2013.

The second credit line is a revolving working capital (seasonal) loan that matures on August 1, 2013. The primary purpose of this loan is to finance inventory and receivables. We may borrow up to $50 million until May 1, 2013, at which time the maximum will decrease back to $40 million. Borrowing base reports and financial statements are required monthly to justify the balance borrowed on this line. We pay a 0.25% annual commitment fee on any funds not borrowed; however, we have the option to reduce the credit line during any given commitment period listed in the agreement to avoid the commitment fee. The principal balance outstanding on the working capital loan is $39.7 and $16.0 million as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Under this loan, there is an additional $10.3 million in available funds to borrow as of March 31, 2013.

Both loans with CoBank are set up with a variable rate option. The variable rate is set by CoBank and changes weekly on the first business day of each week. We also have a fixed rate option on both loans allowing us to fix rates for any period between one day and the entire commitment period. The annual interest rate on the revolving term loan is 3.21% and 4.85% as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the interest rate on the seasonal loan is 2.96% and 4.60%, respectively. We were in compliance with all covenants and conditions under the loans as of March 31, 2013 and the date of this filing.

OFF BALANCE SHEET FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

Except as described below, we do not utilize variable interest entities or other off-balance sheet financial arrangements.

Lease Commitments

We have commitments under various operating leases for rail cars, various types of vehicles, and lab and office equipment.  Our most significant lease commitments are the rail car leases we use to distribute our products.  We have a number of long-term leases for hopper rail cars and oil tank cars with GE Capital, Trinity Capital, Flagship Rail Services and GATX Corporation. Total lease expenses under these arrangements are approximately $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The hopper rail cars earn mileage credit from the railroad through a sublease program, which totaled $0.4 million in each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

20

In addition to rail car leases, we have several operating leases for various equipment and storage facilities. Total lease expense under these arrangements is $45,000 and $39,000 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Some of our leases include purchase options, none of which, however, are for a value less than fair market value at the end of the lease.

Other Long-Term Commitments

We have a commitment under a Grain Storage and Transportation Agreement with H&I Grain of Hetland, Inc. (H&I). This agreement is for the handling, storage and transportation of soybeans to and from the H&I facilities located in DeSmet, Hetland, and Arlington, South Dakota, at established rates per bushel. The agreement provides for an annual minimum payment of $200,000 and expires on August 31, 2014. Expenses under this agreement were $250,000 and $299,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Guaranty

On March 1, 2013, we became the guarantor of a loan between the State of South Dakota Department of Transportation and the Brookings County (South Dakota) Regional Railway Authority. Effective March 1, 2013, the State of South Dakota Department of Transportation agreed to loan the Brookings County Regional Railway Authority a total sum of $964,070 for purposes of making improvements to the railway infrastructure near our soybean processing facility in Volga, South Dakota. The interest rate on the loan is 2.0% per year. Principal and interest payments are due annually with the first payment due on June 1, 2014 and the final payment due at maturity on June 1, 2020. In consideration of this unsecured loan, we agreed to guarantee to the State of South Dakota Department of Transportation the full amount of the loan, plus interest. This guaranty, however, will become a direct obligation of ours on March 1, 2013, when we will be responsible for paying the above-described principal and interest payments on an annual basis.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Note 1 of our Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1, for a discussion on the impact, if any, of the recently pronounced accounting standards.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Preparation of our financial statements requires estimates and judgments to be made that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. We continually evaluate these estimates based on historical experience and other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The difficulty in applying these policies arises from the assumptions, estimates, and judgments that have to be made currently about matters that are inherently uncertain, such as future economic conditions, operating results and valuations as well as management intentions. As the difficulty increases, the level of precision decreases, meaning that actual results can and probably will be different from those currently estimated.

Of the significant accounting policies described in the notes to the financial statements, we believe that the following may involve a higher degree of estimates, judgments, and complexity:

Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies, by their nature relate to uncertainties that require management to exercise judgment both in assessing the likelihood that a liability has been incurred, as well as in estimating the amount of the potential expense.  In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S, we accrue an expense when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

21

Inventory Valuation

We account for our inventories at estimated net realizable market value. These inventories are agricultural commodities that are freely traded, have quoted market prices, may be sold without significant further processing, and have predictable and insignificant costs of disposal. We derive our estimates from local market prices determined by grain terminals in our area. Processed product price estimates are determined by the ending sales contract price as of the close of the final day of the period. This price is determined by the closing price on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), net of the local basis, for the last two business days of the period and the first business day of the subsequent period. Changes in the market values of these inventories are recognized as a component of cost of goods sold.

Long-Lived Assets

Depreciation and amortization of our property, plant and equipment is provided on the straight-lined method by charges to operations at rates based upon the expected useful lives of individual or groups of assets. Economic circumstances or other factors may cause management’s estimates of expected useful lives to differ from actual.

Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and investments are evaluated for impairment on the basis of undiscounted cash flows whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impaired asset is written down to its estimated fair market value based on the best information available. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate undiscounted future cash flows and may differ from actual.

We evaluate the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying value may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. We measure the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeded its fair value. The fair value is measured based on quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including the discounted value of estimated future cash flows. The evaluation of asset impairment requires us to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We minimize the effects of changes in the price of agricultural commodities by using exchange-traded futures and options contracts to minimize our net positions in these inventories and contracts. We account for changes in market value on exchange-traded futures and option contracts, as well as our forward purchase and sales contracts, using quoted exchange prices for identical instruments. Changes in the market value of all these contracts are recognized in earnings as a component of cost of goods sold.

Item 3.                  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Commodities Risk & Risk Management. To reduce the price change risks associated with holding fixed price commodity positions, we generally take opposite and offsetting positions by entering into commodity futures contracts (either a straight or options futures contract) on a regulated commodity futures exchange, the CBOT. While hedging activities reduce the risk of loss from changing market prices, such activities also limit the gain potential which otherwise could result from these significant fluctuations in market prices. Our policy is generally to maintain a hedged position within limits, but we can be long or short at any time. Our profitability is primarily derived from margins on soybeans processed, not from hedging transactions. We do not anticipate that our hedging activity will have a significant impact on future operating results or liquidity. Hedging arrangements do not protect against nonperformance of a cash contract.

22

At any one time, our inventory and purchase contracts for delivery to our facility may be substantial. We have risk management policies and procedures that include net position limits. They are defined by commodity, and include both trader and management limits. This policy and procedure triggers a review by management when any trader is outside of position limits. The position limits are reviewed at least annually with the board of managers. We monitor current market conditions and may expand or reduce the limits in response to changes in those conditions.

Foreign Currency Risk. We conduct essentially all of our business in U.S. dollars and have no direct risk regarding foreign currency fluctuations. Foreign currency fluctuations do, however, impact the ability of foreign buyers to purchase U.S. agricultural products and the competitiveness of and demand for U.S. agricultural products compared to the same products offered by foreign suppliers.

Interest Rate Risk. We manage exposure to interest rate changes by using variable rate loan agreements with fixed rate options. Long-term loan agreements can utilize the fixed option through maturity; however, the revolving ability to pay down and borrow back would be eliminated once the funds were fixed.

Item 4.                 Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes to internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis Of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

Note 1 -   Principal Activity and Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although South Dakota Soybean Processors, LLC (the “Company”, “LLC”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year due in part to the seasonal nature of some of the Company’s businesses. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2012 has been derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Urethane Soy Systems Company (USSC), which was the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. The effects of all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. During 2011, the Company determined to discontinue operations of its polyurethane segment, including USSC, and put the assets and business up for sale. For all periods presented, amounts associated with the polyurethane segment have been classified as discontinued operations on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

On October 16, 2012, USSC’s Board of Directors and the Company’s Board of Managers approved the legal dissolution of USSC, and on December 7, 2012, USSC was formally dissolved as a corporation.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2013.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Accounts receivable are considered past due when payments are not received on a timely basis in accordance with the Company’s credit terms, which is generally 30 days from invoice date. Accounts considered uncollectible are written off. The Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on historical experience, its evaluation of the current status of receivables, and unusual circumstances, if any.

The Company entered into an agreement as of March 21, 2013 with CoBank to amend and restate its Master Loan Agreement (MLA), which includes both the revolving term loan and the seasonal loan discussed in Note 7. Under the terms and conditions of the MLA, CoBank agreed to make advances to the Company for up to $12,900,000 on the revolving term loan. The available commitment decreases in scheduled periodic increments of $1,300,000 every six months starting September 20, 2013 until maturity on March 20, 2018. The principal balance outstanding on the revolving term loan was $12,900,000 and $14,200,000 as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. There were no remaining commitments available to borrow on the revolving term loan as of March 31, 2013.

Under this agreement, the Company is subject to compliance with standard financial covenants and the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions with CoBank as of March 31, 2013.

Effective March 1, 2013, the State of South Dakota Department of Transportation agreed to loan the Brookings County Regional Railway Authority a total sum of $964,070 for purposes of making improvements to the railway infrastructure near the Company’s soybean processing facility in Volga, South Dakota. The interest rate on the loan is 2.0% per year. Principal and interest payments are due annually with the first payment due on June 1, 2014 and the final payment due at maturity on June 1, 2020. In consideration of this unsecured loan, the Company agreed to guarantee to the State of South Dakota Department of Transportation the full amount of the loan, plus interest. This guaranty, however, will become a direct obligation of the Company’s on March 1, 2013, when the Company will be responsible for paying the above-described principal and interest payments on an annual basis. There were no advances outstanding on this loan as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The minimum principal payments on long-term debt obligations, assuming the Company will advance the entire amount on the railway improvement loan, are expected to be as follows:

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Measures [Abstract]

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]

Note 10 -   Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, this guidance establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. The three levels of hierarchy and examples are as follows:

· Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange and commodity derivative contracts listed on the Chicago Board of Trade (“CBOT”).

· Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, or priced with models using highly observable inputs, such as commodity prices using forward future prices.

· Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.

The following tables set forth financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the respective levels to which fair value measurements are classified within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

	Fair Value as of March 31, 2013
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Financial assets:
Inventory	$	1,759,241	$	76,020,505	$	-	$	77,779,746
Margin deposits	$	1,317,530	$	-	$	-	$	1,317,530
Assets of discontinued division	$	-	$	-	$	213,314	$	213,314

	Fair Value as of December 31, 2012

Financial assets:
Inventory	$	1,600,783	$	70,243,052	$	-	$	71,843,835

Assets of discontinued division	$	-	$	-	$	216,105	$	216,105

The Company considers the carrying amount of significant classes of financial instruments on the balance sheets, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, notes receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, to be reasonable estimates of fair value due to their length or maturity. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates the carrying value. The interest rates on the long-term debt are similar to rates the Company would be able to obtain currently in the market.

The Company enters into various commodity derivative instruments, including futures, options, swaps and other agreements. The fair value of the Company’s commodity derivatives is determined using unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments on the CBOT. The Company estimates the fair market value of their finished goods and raw materials inventories using the market price quotations of similar forward future contracts listed on the CBOT and adjusts for the local market adjustments derived from other grain terminals in our area.

The assets of discontinued division represent a nonrecurring level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value measurements were based on managements’ best estimate of fair market value, which includes comparisons to similar assets within the industry.

The Company has patronage investments in other cooperatives and common stock in a privately held entity. There is no market for their patronage credits or the entity’s common shares, and it is impracticable to estimate fair value of the Company’s investments. These investments are carried on the balance sheet at original cost plus the amount of patronage earnings allocated to the Company, less any cash distributions received.

The following table presents the changes in Level 3 instruments measured on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

Note 9 -   Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into contractual arrangements as a means of managing exposure to changes in commodity prices. The Company’s derivative instruments primarily consist of commodity futures, options and forward contracts. Although these contracts may be effective economic hedges of specified risks, they are not designated as, nor accounted for, as hedging instruments. These contracts are recorded in inventory on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value as discussed in Note 11, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the value of the Company’s open futures, options and forward contracts was approximately $1,755,919 and $1,600,783, respectively.

Note 11 -   Business Segment Information

The Company organizes its business units into two reportable segments: soybean processing and polyurethane. Separate management of each segment is required because each segment is subject to different marketing, production, and technology strategies. The soybean processing segment purchases soybeans and processes them in primarily three products: soybean meal, oil and hulls. The polyurethane segment, which was classified as a discontinued operation in 2011, manufactured a soy-based polyol called Soyol^® and its resin systems and sold them to the polyurethane industry. The segments’ accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Market prices are used to report intersegment sales.
