The Andersons, Inc. Reports First Quarter Results
MAUMEE, Ohio, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Andersons, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANDE) announces financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
Financial Highlights:
- Reported record first quarter net income attributable to The Andersons of $33 million or $0.97 per diluted share and adjusted net income attributable of $38 million, or $1.12 per diluted share
- Adjusted EBITDA of $91 million
- Renewables first quarter pretax income was $40 million on record production, strong merchandising, and biofuels policy benefits
- Agribusiness recorded pretax income of $7 million and adjusted pretax income attributable to The Andersons of $18 million on resilient merchandising and improving conditions
"Our record first quarter includes outstanding results in Renewables and year-over-year improvement in Agribusiness. Ethanol margins were solid during the quarter on increased demand and higher gasoline prices. Our renewable feedstock business had a strong quarter as values and volumes improved following the finalization of the Required Volume Obligations (RVO). Our plants set another quarterly record for production, and we were able to qualify for a higher tier of 45Z tax credits. Fundamentals for this business remain positive," said President and CEO Bill Krueger. "In Agribusiness, with the return of some market volatility, our merchandising businesses had a solid quarter. Results from our premium ingredients business more than doubled the prior year, as we are focused on serving our key CPG customers. Our fertilizer business also improved, as we strategically positioned product in anticipation of spring planting."
"We continue to evaluate capital deployment to drive growth and expansion of our existing assets, make our operations more efficient, while analyzing potential acquisitions. We are on track to complete several capital investments during 2026, including the addition of soybean meal export capacity at Port Houston, the replacement and modernization of grain storage at our Toledo port assets, and several corn and wheat cleaning projects within our current asset footprint. Our Clymers, Indiana ethanol debottlenecking project, announced in December of last year, is in the early stages and progressing as planned. We expect the project to increase the plant's annual production capacity to approximately 170 million gallons upon completion. We are evaluating additional ethanol, premium ingredients, and other projects to drive further profitable growth as we remain focused on achieving the $7.00 run-rate EPS target exiting 2028, as announced in December at our Investor Day," continued Krueger.

Cash, Liquidity, and Long-Term Debt Management
"Our businesses generated improved cash flows on strong earnings this quarter. We expect to continue to fund many of our growth projects internally and our debt remains at a modest level," said Executive Vice President and CFO Brian Valentine. "We remain below our long-term debt to EBITDA target of less than 2.5 times and continue to be pleased with the strength of our balance sheet."
Cash used in operating activities was $394 million and $350 million in the first quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively. Cash from operations before working capital changes in the same periods was $68 million and $57 million, respectively. Cash spent on capital projects in the quarter totaled $52 million, as we continue to invest in our facilities and fund growth.
First Quarter Segment Overview
Agribusiness Posts Improved First Quarter on Earnings Resilience
Agribusiness recorded pretax income of $7 million and adjusted pretax income attributable to the company of $18 million for the quarter, compared to a pretax loss of $10 million and break even adjusted pretax income in the first quarter of 2025.
Our diversified portfolio showed the resilience of our earnings as we saw more volatility return to the market this quarter. As prices rallied during the quarter, more old crop bushels came to market, which provided opportunities for our merchandising businesses. Our grain asset footprint saw less basis appreciation than expected as the price rally put pressure on basis values. Fertilizer results improved on higher margins.
Market conditions remain dynamic. There is the potential of continued volatility that will provide opportunities through 2026. We will remain nimble as conditions change. If the volatility continues, more opportunities should shift to our merchandising businesses. We expect our asset footprint, especially in the west, to capture some of the delayed basis appreciation over the next few quarters. Anticipated corn plantings are above the five-year average with expanded margin opportunities in this higher priced environment. Our fertilizer business is well positioned heading into Q2 and the application season for planting.
Agribusiness had adjusted first quarter EBITDA of $49 million, compared to $31 million in 2025.
Renewables Reports Record Quarter on Efficient Operations and Strong Demand
The Renewables segment reported pretax income of $40 million in the first quarter. For the same period in 2025, the segment reported pretax income of $25 million and pretax income attributable to the company of $15 million.
The segment had a strong first quarter performance on efficient plant operations and record production. Ethanol demand drove board crush higher year over year but was offset by firmer corn basis and higher natural gas expense. First quarter results include $26 million of 45Z producer tax credits. As expected, each of our plants qualified for the next tier of credits following rule changes effective in 2026. Our merchandising businesses had improved performance, largely driven by volatility surrounding the RVO announcement, resulting in higher distillers corn oil and RIN values.
Ethanol fundamentals continue to be supportive as we anticipate elevated demand, including increasing global blend rates, high gasoline prices, and planned industry maintenance. Renewable feedstocks should also continue to benefit from the robust RVO.
Renewables had first quarter EBITDA of $54 million in 2026, compared to $37 million in 2025.
Income Taxes
The company recorded income tax expense of $4.6 million for the quarter, resulting in an effective tax rate of 14% for the period. The rate was impacted by non-taxable 45Z income. We anticipate a full-year adjusted effective rate of approximately 14% - 18%.

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. |
