- • Core business: Majority-owned ethanol production through six plants, focusing on ethanol and by-products as a single reportable segment
- • New emphasis: Carbon sequestration project at One Earth Energy with $220–230 million budget, including EPA Class VI permit pending, impacted by new Illinois legislation
- • Strategic shift: Expansion of One Earth ethanol plant capacity from 150 to 175 million gallons/year, planning permit for 200 million gallons/year; focus on carbon intensity reduction for IRA tax credits
- • Quantitative metric: Ethanol shipped ~727 million gallons in FY2024, with REX’s effective ownership ~294 million gallons; spent $59.9 million on sequestration and expansion projects
- • Noteworthy fact: Illinois moratorium on new CO₂ pipeline permits until July 2026 delays carbon sequestration project permitting and ICC application withdrawn

Risk Factors
- • Regulatory risk from EPA Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) volume uncertainty; 2026+ RVO proposal delayed past Nov 2024, finalization expected Dec 2025
- • Macroeconomic exposure to corn price volatility exacerbated by the Russian-Ukraine conflict and 2022 drought impacting NuGen facility corn supply
- • Operational risk in carbon sequestration project at One Earth plant; Illinois CO2 pipeline permitting moratorium until July 1, 2026 causing resubmission and delays
- • Competitive disruption potential from cellulosic ethanol technologies favored by federal policies requiring costly plant conversions for corn-based ethanol producers
- • Financial risk from minority equity ethanol plants limiting operational control and exposing REX to local operators’ conflicting interests on corn sourcing and pricing
