REX AMERICAN RESOURCES’ THIRD QUARTER DILUTED EPS RISE
59% TO $0.70 FROM $0.44, REFLECTING IMPROVED RESULTS
FROM ETHANOL PRODUCTION INTERESTS

Dayton, Ohio, (November 30, 2011) — REX American Resources Corporation (NYSE: REX) today reported results for its fiscal 2011 third quarter (“Q3 ‘11”) and nine months ended October 31, 2011. REX management will host a conference call and webcast today at 11:00 a.m. ET:

Net income attributable to REX shareholders in Q3 ‘11 was $6.5 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, compared with $4.3 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, in Q3 ‘10. Q3 ‘11 income from continuing operations net of tax attributable to REX shareholders was $6.0 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, compared with $3.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, in Q3 ‘10. REX recorded Q3 ‘11 income from discontinued operations of $0.5 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared with $0.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in Q3 ‘10. Per share results in Q3 ‘11 and Q3 ‘10 are based on 9,239,000 and 9,682,000 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively. Reflecting all share repurchases to date REX currently has approximately 8,322,000 common shares outstanding.

REX’s Q3 ‘11 results primarily reflect its alternative energy segment interests in six operating ethanol production facilities. The operations of One Earth Energy, LLC (“One Earth”) are consolidated and those of the other five operating plants are reported as equity in income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates. REX’s Q3 ‘11 net sales and revenue rose 20.3% to $84.5 million, from $70.3 million in Q3 ‘10, primarily reflecting significant increases in ethanol and distillers grains pricing.

REX recognizes results from its ethanol interests on a quarterly calendar basis, and as a result, REX’s Q3 includes results from ethanol operations for the period July 1 through September 30.

Gross profit from REX’s consolidated operations rose 28.4% to $9.0 million in Q3 ‘11 from $7.0 million in Q3’ 10 primarily reflecting significant increases in REX’s realized distiller grains prices and the deconsolidation of the Levelland Hockley County Ethanol, LLC (“LHCE”) operations at year-end FY 2010. In Q3 ‘11, equity in income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates increased 70.1% to $6.3 million from $3.7 million in Q3 ‘10 primarily due to the contribution of REX’s 48% interest in NuGen Energy, LLC (“NuGen”) which was purchased on July 1, 2010 and higher overall results from the Company’s unconsolidated ethanol production interests. Principally reflecting these items, REX’s Q3 ‘11 income from continuing operations before income taxes and discontinued operations increased 67.0% to $11.9 million from $7.1 million in Q3 ‘10.

Recent Developments

 

 

 

§

On November 1, REX acquired an additional approximate 50% equity ownership interest in NuGen raising its equity ownership in the entity to approximately 98%. REX acquired its additional interest in NuGen and paid in full its remaining contingent consideration liability (related to the July 2010 purchase of its initial 48% ownership interest in NuGen) for a total of $12.7 million and made a $7.0 million capital contribution to NuGen to reduce long-term debt. REX will consolidate the plant’s results in its financial statements effective November 1, 2011.

 

-

In the twelve month period ended July 31, 2011 and the three month period ended October 31, 2011 NuGen generated pre-tax net income of $24.3 million and approximately $6.1 million, respectively.

 

-

The acquisition of a controlling interest in NuGen increases REX’s ownership of annual operating nameplate production capacity by approximately 30% from approximately 169 million gallons to approximately 219 million gallons.

REX CEO, Stuart Rose, commented, “Our strong Q3 ‘11 operating results reflect improved results at One Earth Energy and at our unconsolidated ethanol plants as well as the elimination of the drag on results from the LHCE plant. We believe our quarterly results reflect the benefit of our strategy to diversify our ethanol investment portfolio and focus on state-of-the-art plants located in corn-belt states.

“Given our balance sheet strength, early in Q4 REX increased its ownership in the NuGen plant, a highly efficient facility with solid operational performance, a favorable location and an excellent management team. As such, we will consolidate NuGen’s results beginning in the current quarter and we are confident that the economic structure of this transaction will prove to be very favorable for our shareholders. In addition, we remain well positioned to pursue further ethanol, renewable resource or industrial project investment opportunities that offer attractive risk-adjusted returns and plan to continue to make opportunistic repurchases of our common stock.”

Balance Sheet and Share Repurchase Program
At October 31, 2011, REX had cash and cash equivalents of $86.8 million, $67.0 million of which was at the parent and $19.8 million of which was at One Earth, its consolidated ethanol production facility. This compares with cash and cash equivalents of $91.0 million at January 31, 2011, $72.6 million of which was at the parent and $18.4 million of which was at its consolidated ethanol production facility. REX repurchased 1,057,696 common shares in Q3 ‘11 at an average price of $17.07.

To date in Q4 ‘11, REX repurchased an additional 55,788 common shares at an average price of $17.82. Reflecting all share repurchases to date, REX is authorized to repurchase up to an additional 162,455 shares of its common stock and currently has approximately 8,321,819 common shares outstanding.
