This presentation contains “forward-looking” statements regarding the business operations and prospects of Darling Ingredients Inc., including its Diamond Green
Diesel joint venture, and industry factors affecting it. These statements are identified by words such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,”
“could,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “planned,” “potential,” “continue,” “momentum,” “assumption,” and other words referring to events that may occur in the future.
These statements reflect Darling Ingredient’s current view of future events and are based on its assessment of, and are subject to, a variety of risks and
uncertainties beyond its control, each of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. These factors
include, among others, existing and unknown future limitations on the ability of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries to make their cash flow available to
the Company for payments on the Company's indebtedness or other purposes; global demands for bio-fuels and grain and oilseed commodities, which have
exhibited volatility, and can impact the cost of feed for cattle, hogs and poultry, thus affecting available rendering feedstock and selling prices for the Company’s
products; reductions in raw material volumes available to the Company due to weak margins in the meat production industry as a result of higher feed costs,
reduced consumer demand or other factors, reduced volume from food service establishments, or otherwise; reduced demand for animal feed; reduced finished
product prices, including a decline in fat and used cooking oil finished product prices; changes to worldwide government policies relating to renewable fuels and
greenhouse gas emissions that adversely affect programs like the Renewable Fuel Standards Program (RFS2), low carbon fuel standards (LCFS) and tax credits for
biofuels both in the Unites States and abroad; possible product recall resulting from developments relating to the discovery of unauthorized adulterations to food
or food additives; the occurrence of Bird Flu including, but not limited to H5N1 flu, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (or "BSE"), porcine epidemic diarrhea
("PED") or other diseases associated with animal origin in the United States or elsewhere; unanticipated costs and/or reductions in raw material volumes related to
the Company’s compliance with the existing or unforeseen new U.S. or foreign regulations (including, without limitation, China) affecting the industries in which the
Company operates or its value added products (including new or modified animal feed, Bird Flu, PED or BSE or similar or unanticipated regulations); risks associated
with the renewable diesel plant in Norco, Louisiana owned and operated by a joint venture between Darling Ingredients and Valero Energy Corporation, including
possible unanticipated operating disruptions and issues related to the announced expansion project; difficulties or a significant disruption in our information
systems or failure to implement new systems and software successfully, including our ongoing enterprise resource planning project; risks relating to possible third
party claims of intellectual property infringement; increased contributions to the Company’s pension and benefit plans, including multiemployer and employer-
sponsored defined benefit pension plans as required by legislation, regulation or other applicable U.S. or foreign law or resulting from a U.S. mass withdrawal
event; bad debt write-offs; loss of or failure to obtain necessary permits and registrations; continued or escalated conflict in the Middle East, North Korea, Ukraine
or elsewhere; uncertainty regarding the likely exit of the U.K. from the European Union; and/or unfavorable export or import markets. These factors, coupled with
volatile prices for natural gas and diesel fuel, climate conditions, currency exchange fluctuations, general performance of the U.S. and global economies,
disturbances in world financial, credit, commodities and stock markets, and any decline in consumer confidence and discretionary spending, including the inability
of consumers and companies to obtain credit due to lack of liquidity in the financial markets, among others, could negatively impact the Company's results of
operations. Among other things, future profitability may be affected by the Company’s ability to grow its business, which faces competition from companies that
may have substantially greater resources than the Company. The Company’s announced share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time
and purchases of shares under the program are subject to market conditions and other factors, which are likely to change from time to time. Other risks and
uncertainties regarding Darling Ingredients Inc., its business and the industries in which it operates are referenced from time to time in the Company’s filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Darling Ingredients Inc. is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or alter its
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Q3 2017 Overview
Year over Year
Consolidated Earnings
• Global volumes up 3.8% over 3Q 2016.
• Gross margin compression driven by Fuel
Segment. Operating challenges at the
company’s Ecoson bioenergy plant, absence
of a blenders tax credit and business
interruption at Rendac-Son facility explain
the variance.
• Global pricing of fats and greases
improved on solid biofuel demand while a
growing global slaughter produced ample
protein and pressured prices.
• The absence of the blenders tax credit
negatively impacted overall profitability by
approximately $21.5 million EBITDA from
DGD, $2.4 million EBITDA in Fuel Segment
or $0.14 EPS.
• Strong free cash flow in the quarter that led
to a $18.5 million debt reduction in the
quarter and $69.5 million year to date.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized accounting measurement under GAAP; it should not be considered as an
alternative to net income, as a measure of operating results, or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of
liquidity, and is not intended to be a presentation in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is presented here not
as an alternative to net income, but rather as a measure of the Company’s operating performance. Since EBITDA
(generally, net income plus interest expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is not calculated identically by
all companies, this presentation may not be comparable to EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA presentations disclosed by
other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated in this presentation and represents, for any relevant period, net
income/(loss) plus depreciation and amortization, goodwill and long-lived asset impairment, interest expense,
(income)/loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, income tax provision, other income/(expense) and equity in
net loss of unconsolidated subsidiary. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating the
Company’s operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry because the calculation of
Adjusted EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and certain non-cash and other items
that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
As a result, the Company’s management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure to evaluate performance and for other
discretionary purposes. In addition to the foregoing, management also uses or will use Adjusted EBITDA to measure
compliance with certain financial covenants under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities and 5.375% Notes
and 4.75% Notes that were outstanding at September 30, 2017. However, the amounts shown in this presentation
for Adjusted EBITDA differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in the Company’s Senior
Secured Credit Facilities and 5.375% Notes and 4.75% Notes, as those definitions permit further adjustments to
reflect certain other non-recurring costs, non-cash charges and cash dividends from the DGD Joint Venture.
Additionally, the Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange impact on operating cash flow, which is defined
as segment operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization.
