The Andersons, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results

MAUMEE, Ohio, Feb. 17, 2026 /CNW/ -- The Andersons, Inc. (NASDAQ:ANDE) announces financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025.

Financial Highlights:

Fourth quarter net income attributable to The Andersons of $67 million, or $1.97 per diluted share, and $70 million, or $2.04 per diluted share, a record on an adjusted basis

Full year net income attributable to The Andersons of $96 million, or $2.79 per diluted share, and $111 million, or $3.23 per diluted share, on an adjusted basis

Adjusted EBITDA of $137 million for the fourth quarter and $337 million for the year

Renewables fourth quarter pretax income was $54 million on record production, solid merchandising, and benefits from biofuels policy

Agribusiness fourth quarter pretax income was $46 million on solid operations through record corn harvest

"Our record fourth quarter results reflect solid execution in both Renewables and Agribusiness. Recent investments in both businesses, including full ownership of the ethanol plants, contributed to this quarter's financial performance. Our Skyland locations were able to accumulate large corn and sorghum positions at favorable values and saw the return of sorghum exports through our Houston port elevator. Eastern assets realized seasonally high elevation margins on higher volumes from increased corn demand, while over-supplied markets continued to limit merchandising opportunities," said President and CEO Bill Krueger. "In this very busy quarter for our grain elevators and ethanol plants, I'm pleased with our ability to serve our customers."

"We have a number of strategic capital investments at various stages of completion. In the quarter, we began operations at our mineral processing facility in Carlsbad, New Mexico. Several other projects, including our multi-year expansion at the Port of Houston and recently announced $60 million investment to increase capacity at our Clymers, Indiana ethanol production facility, are progressing," added Krueger. "We also expect to begin operating a bio-based diesel feedstock storage and blending facility at one of the Skyland locations later this quarter. We continue to add corn and wheat cleaning operations throughout our asset footprint in response to food and pet food customer demand. We intend to actively pursue additional growth projects, including lowering the carbon intensity of our ethanol plants as well as evaluating process improvements and further expansion and acquisition opportunities."

Cash, Liquidity, and Long-Term Debt Management

"Our businesses generated solid operating cash flows into the fourth quarter on improved earnings, allowing us to continue to fund growth projects," said Executive Vice President and CFO Brian Valentine. "Our long-term debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 1.8 times remains well below our stated target of less than 2.5 times. We are pleased with the strength of our balance sheet and the flexibility it provides as we execute against our strategy."

The company used $6 million and generated $269 million in cash from operating activities for the fourth quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively, and generated $110 million and $100 million in cash from operations before working capital changes for the same periods, respectively.

For the full years of 2025 and 2024, the company generated $177 million and $332 million in cash from operating activities, respectively. Cash from operations before working capital changes for the same years was $278 million and $323 million, even with the challenging ag markets in 2025.

Fourth Quarter Segment Overview

Agribusiness Posts Solid Fourth Quarter on a Record Corn Harvest

Agribusiness recorded pretax income of $46 million and adjusted pretax income attributable to the company of $45 million for the quarter, compared to pretax income of $55 million and adjusted pretax income attributable of $56 million in the fourth quarter of the prior year.

The robust fall harvest helped drive solid earnings in the quarter, with different fundamentals in the east and west. The western footprint, including Skyland Grain, saw improved performance as it saw strong basis appreciation in corn and sorghum. Increased corn demand from ethanol and export programs provided good margins for the eastern assets but kept basis levels elevated through harvest. This may limit basis appreciation opportunities in the region going into 2026.

Our complementary asset footprint should provide some uplift in 2026, with more traditional basis appreciation opportunities in the west, while continued export demand would benefit elevation margins for the eastern assets. Sorghum exports remained strong into early 2026, which we expect will benefit our Skyland and Houston assets. As on-farm grain volumes come to market, merchandising opportunities may arise. Domestic premium ingredient demand is also expected to stay solid and should continue to support recent capital growth investments. Expected corn plantings are higher than historical average, which may drive demand for nitrogen products, but volumes will be dependent on farmer economics.

Agribusiness had fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA of $80 million, compared to fourth quarter 2024 adjusted EBITDA of $88 million. For the full year, adjusted EBITDA was $187 million in 2025, compared to $218 million in 2024.

Renewables Reports Strong Quarter on Record Production

The Renewables segment reported pretax income of $54 million in the fourth quarter compared to pretax income of $26 million and pretax income attributable to the company of $17 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

The group reported strong fourth quarter results on efficient plant operations and record production, as well as improved ethanol board crush margins of $0.15/gallon over the prior year. Firmer corn basis and higher natural gas expense partially offset the favorable board crush. Fourth quarter results also included $15 million of 45Z tax credits, bringing the year-to-date total to $35 million. The renewable feedstocks business had another solid quarter, and co-product values improved over the fourth quarter of 2024.

Favorable biofuels policies, continuing elevated export demand, upcoming planned industry maintenance, and summer gasoline demand should all support ethanol fundamentals this year. Renewable feedstocks merchandising should also benefit this year with the anticipated robust Renewable Volume Obligations.

Renewables recorded EBITDA of $69 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to 2024 fourth quarter EBITDA of $41 million. For the full year, adjusted EBITDA was $203 million in 2025, compared to $189 million 2024.

Income Taxes

The company recorded income tax expense at an effective rate of 19% for the fourth quarter and 16% for the year. The rates were impacted by non-taxable 45Z income, the elimination of certain reserves against uncertain tax positions related to R&D tax credits, and the tax treatment of noncontrolling interests.
