Alto Ingredients

Alto Ingredients beat expectations in the second quarter with earnings of $0.15 per share and revenue of $245.7 million; net income rose to $11.4 million and adjusted EBITDA to $23.7 million. The company reported a fourth consecutive quarter with positive gross profit, increased ethanol production and completed a capacity expansion in Pekin. The stock nevertheless fell as investors voiced concerns about higher near-term maintenance costs, the timing of margin improvement and a new "at-the-market" stock program that could cause dilution. Management expects the expansion’s full benefit in Q4 and plans 45Z tax credits of about $15–16 million for 2026. » Plus sur de.investing.com

Alto Ingredients reported a net profit of $4.0 million ($0.05 per share) for Q1 2026, after a loss of $12.0 million in the year-ago quarter. Drivers were robust export sales, improved crush margins and $3.9 million in net proceeds from the 45Z tax credit; revenue remained largely stable at $224.7 million. The stock fell 7.18% in after-hours trading despite the positive results, as the share price had risen strongly last year and valuation concerns remain; management expects about $15 million from 45Z credits in 2026, plans roughly $25 million in capex, but sees risks from rising energy costs. » Plus sur de.investing.com

Alto Ingredients reported Q1 2026 EPS of $0.05 versus an expected -$0.05 and also beat revenue expectations with $224.7 million. The company returned to a net profit of $4 million (vs. a net loss of $12 million a year earlier), which it attributed to a better product mix and cost management. Despite the positive results, the stock fell 7.18% after the close to $5.92, weighed down by concerns over higher energy costs. For Q2 Alto expects EPS of $0.11 and plans capacity and efficiency measures to further improve margins. » Plus sur de.investing.com
