Press Releases
MAUMEE, Ohio, May 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Andersons, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANDE) announces financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
First Quarter Highlights:
- Company reported a net loss attributable to The Andersons of $15 million, or $0.44 per diluted share and adjusted net income of $7 million, or $0.20 per diluted share
- Adjusted EBITDA was $55 million for the quarter
- Trade reported pretax income of $39 million and adjusted pretax income of $24 million, a record first quarter
- Renewables produced a pretax loss of $83 million due to a previously announced non-cash impairment and adjusted pretax income attributable to The Andersons of $6 million
- Nutrient & Industrial (formerly Plant Nutrient) reported a pretax loss of $10 million on a slow start to the planting season
"Once again, our Trade business led the way for the quarter. The team continues to execute well and we are seeing positive results from our base business, as well as, recent growth investments. The Renewables team was faced with lower ethanol crush margins to start the quarter but showed improvement over 2022 on an adjusted basis. The Nutrient & Industrial business was faced with declining fertilizer prices and deferred customer purchasing in the quarter. In April, customers have engaged and prices have firmed a bit as fieldwork began in our service geography. While some of the typical first quarter business will shift into Q2, we do not expect that all the business will be recovered," said President and CEO Pat Bowe.
"We are making good progress on several growth opportunities. We remain focused on executing within our stated strategy in our core grain and fertilizer verticals including further focus on renewables and new opportunities in renewable diesel feedstocks," continued Bowe. "We remain confident in the long-term outlook for the company and achieving our previously stated goal."

Cash, Liquidity, and Long-Term Debt Management
"Our businesses continue to generate strong operating cash flows and we remain disciplined in our approach to capital spending. We continue to be well below our long-term debt to EBITDA target of less than 2.5 times," said Executive Vice President and CFO Brian Valentine. "In light of the current, high interest rate environment, we are strategically managing working capital usage. Our short-term debt funding working capital at the end of the first quarter of 2023 totaled $638 million, less than half of the $1,450 million we borrowed a year ago."
The company used cash of $334 million and $1,075 million in its operating activities for the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively, and generated $41 million and $40 million in cash from operations before working capital changes for the same periods, respectively.
First Quarter Segment Overview
Trade Generates Strong Earnings; Record Q1
The Trade segment recorded pretax income of $39 million and adjusted pretax income of $24 million for the quarter compared to pretax income of $4 million in the first quarter of 2022.
Trade benefited from strong elevation margins in its assets, and excellent merchandising results across the portfolio. Its well-positioned premium food and feed ingredients business also generated good margins. All three lines of business exceeded the 2022 first quarter.
Spring planting is just getting started in the Midwest. Commodity prices have moderated from the highs of last spring, but stocks remain relatively low. With the mix of assets and merchandising capabilities across key geographies, Trade is well-positioned for an expected large 2023 harvest. Unfavorable weather conditions could result in production shortfalls and continuing global supply and demand imbalances, which would allow for continued merchandising opportunities and strong elevation margins.
Adjustments to earnings primarily related to insurance recoveries on the late December fire-damaged inventory.
Trade's first quarter adjusted EBITDA was $44 million, more than double first quarter 2022 EBITDA of $21 million.
Renewables Generates Solid Q1 Adjusted Earnings; Takes Impairment Charge on ELEMENT
The Renewables segment reported a pretax loss of $83 million and adjusted pretax income attributable to the company of $6 million in the first quarter, which is comparable to the same period in 2022.
The ELEMENT non-cash impairment charge was $87 million of which $44 million was the company's share.
Ethanol crush margins were weak starting the quarter but rebounded later in the period during the start of the spring maintenance season. Driving demand has also picked up and corn prices have moderated. The merchandising businesses including renewable diesel feedstocks continue to deliver solid results, but were impacted by lower values, partially due to delays in renewable diesel plant startups. Our eastern corn belt production facilities remain well-positioned for corn supply and ethanol margins have strengthened further after the close of the quarter.
Renewables had first quarter adjusted EBITDA of $22 million in 2023, a slight decrease from 2022 first quarter EBITDA of $24 million.
Nutrient & Industrial Ag Businesses Decline; Slow Customer Engagement on Declining Prices
The Nutrient & Industrial segment posted a pretax loss of $10 million, compared to record first quarter income in the prior year of $11 million. Significantly declining market prices continued to keep customers on the sidelines. With strong farmer income and planted acres anticipated to be high, second quarter volumes are expected to improve, but some of the margin decline is not likely to be recovered.
Nutrient & Industrial's first quarter EBITDA was $(1) million compared to 2022 first quarter EBITDA of $19 million.
Income Taxes; Corporate
The company recorded an income tax benefit at an effective rate of 9.1% for the quarter due to the tax treatment of non-controlling interests. We anticipate a full-year adjusted effective rate of approximately 22% - 25%.

As such, references to EBITDA and EBITDA from continuing operations, as well as, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations will yield the same results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for specified items. The company calculates adjusted EBITDA by removing the impact of specified items and adding back the amounts of interest expense, tax expense and depreciation and amortization to net income (loss). Management believes that adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of the company's performance as it provides investors additional information about the company's operations allowing better evaluation of underlying business performance and improved comparability to prior periods. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace or be an alternative to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. |

Cash from operations before working capital changes is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities before the impact of changes in working capital within the statement of cash flows. The Company calculates cash from operations by eliminating the effect of changes in accounts receivable, inventories, commodity derivatives, other assets, and payables and accrued expenses from the cash provided by (used in) operating activities. Management believes that cash from operations before working capital changes is a useful measure of the company's performance as it provides investors additional information about the company's operations allowing better evaluation of underlying business performance and improved comparability to prior periods. Cash from operations before working capital changes is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not intended to replace or be an alternative to cash provided by (used in) operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. |
