INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the Board of Managers
NuGen Energy, LLC
Marion, South Dakota

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of NuGen Energy, LLC (a South Dakota limited liability company) as of July 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related statements of operations, members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NuGen Energy, LLC as of July 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE A: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

 

 

NATURE OF BUSINESS – NuGen Energy, LLC (the company), a South Dakota limited liability company, was formed on February 13, 2009 to acquire and operate an ethanol plant located in Marion, South Dakota with a current certified annual production nameplate capacity of 122 million gallons of undenatured ethanol. The company produces ethanol and distillers grains for commercial sales throughout the United States.

 

 

 

FISCAL REPORTING PERIOD - The company has adopted a fiscal year ending of July 31 for financial reporting.

 

 

 

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION - The company generally sells ethanol and related products pursuant to marketing agreements. Revenues are recognized when the customer has taken title and has assumed the risks of ownership, prices are fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. The company’s products are generally shipped FOB shipping point.

 

 

 

In accordance with the company’s ethanol marketing agreement, a price per gallon is deducted for marketing, storage and transportation costs and is recorded in cost of goods sold.

 

 

 

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK - The company extends credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business. The company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Substantially all sales of the company are to one customer. The company’s operations may vary with the volatility of the commodity and ethanol markets.

 

 

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - The company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The company’s cash balances are maintained in bank depositories and periodically exceed federally insured limits.

 

 

 

TRADE RECEIVABLES - The company has engaged the services of national marketers to sell substantially all of its ethanol and distillers grain production. The marketers handle nearly all sales functions including billing, logistics, and sales pricing. Once product is shipped, the marketers assume the risk of payment from the consumer and handle all delinquent payment issues.

F-6



 

 

NOTE A: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

 

TRADE RECEIVABLES (continued) - Trade receivables are recorded at their estimated net realizable value. Accounts are considered past due if payment is not made on a timely basis in accordance with the company’s credit terms. Accounts considered uncollectible are written off in the period they are determined to be uncollectible. As of July 31, 2011 and 2010, the company believes that all amounts are collectible and an allowance for bad debts was not considered necessary.

 

 

 

INVENTORIES - Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist of raw materials, work in process, finished goods and spare parts.

 

 

 

RESTRICTED CASH - The company is required by its lending institution to deposit funds in an escrow account with the proceeds to be used for the replacement of machinery and equipment and for the payment of real estate taxes.

 

 

 

DEPOSITS - The company is required to deposit funds with its various vendors and suppliers including the company’s corn procurement agent, a related party through common ownership, for grain purchased on the company’s behalf, the company’s natural gas provider based on expected usage, the company’s electricity provider and an equipment supply company who provides lab equipment. The company also has bonds required by various bureaus for the production of ethanol that are classified as deposits. Deposits have no set recovery date and are recorded at the scheduled recoverable value.

 

 

 

INVESTMENT IN COOPERATIVE - The company’s investment in its national ethanol marketing cooperative is recorded at fair value.

 

 

 

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS - The company enters into futures contracts to reduce the risk caused by market fluctuations of corn prices. The fair value of these contracts is based on quoted prices in active exchange-traded markets. The fair value of the derivatives is subject to change due to the changing market conditions. Although the company believes its derivative positions are economic hedges, none have been designated as a hedge for accounting purposes and derivative positions are recorded on the balance sheet at their fair market value, with changes in fair value recognized in current period earnings. The company has categorized the cash flows related to the hedging activities in the same category as the item being hedged.

 

 

 

The company’s forward contracts are deemed “normal purchases and normal sales” under Accounting Standards Codification 815 – Derivatives and Hedging, and therefore, are not marked to market in the company’s financial statements.

F-7



 

 

NOTE A: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

 

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS (continued) - At July 31, 2011, the company had commitments to purchase a total of 4,903,121 bushels of corn under fixed and variable priced forward contracts. The company also had commitments to sell a total of 2,745,600 gallons of ethanol and a total of 1,938 tons of distillers grains under fixed and variable priced forward contracts.

 

 

 

The following tables provide details regarding the company’s derivative financial instruments at July 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, none of which are designated as hedging instruments:

At July 31, 2011, the company had no open positions as derivative financial instruments but retained funds with the broker which are included in current assets on the balance sheet identified as margin deposits.

 

 

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are stated at the lower of cost or fair value. Significant additions and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their useful lives with expenditures for maintenance and repairs being charged to operations as incurred.

 

 

 

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:


 

 

 

 

Land improvements

 

20-40 years

 

Building structure

 

20-40 years

 

Grain equipment

 

5–20 years

 

Process equipment

 

5–20 years

 

Other equipment

 

5–15 years

 


 

 

 

Construction in progress includes expenditures directly related to a conveyor project. These expenditures will be depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life once the asset is placed into service.

F-8



 

 

NOTE A: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT (continued) - Depreciation expense for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 is $4,534,355 and $4,500,823, respectively.

 

 

 

The company reviews its property and equipment for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable within the ordinary course of business. An impairment loss is recorded when the sum of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. No loss has been recorded during the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010.

 

 

 

FINANCING COSTS - Financing costs include expenditures directly related to securing debt financing. These costs are amortized over the 7 year life of the related loans using the effective-interest method. Amortization related to financing costs is $180,353 and $145,561 for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

 

 

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - The company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring and non-recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market.

 

 

 

The fair value hierarchy prescribed by this guidance contains three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable, and requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value. Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.

 

 

 

Along with those assets and liabilities which are required by authoritative accounting guidance to be recorded at fair value in its balance sheet, the company has elected to record its patronage investment in a cooperative at fair value. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, margin deposits, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. Management believes the fair value of its long-term debt would be difficult to estimate due to the nature of the obligations and the inability to access a similar obligation to base an estimate of fair value. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the company using appropriate valuation methodologies.

 

 

 

INCOME TAXES - The company is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes and generally does not incur income taxes. Instead, it’s income or losses

Primarily due to the company’s tax status as a partnership, the adoption of this guidance had no material impact on the company’s financial condition or results of operations. As of July 31, 2011, the company tax years of 2009 and 2010 are subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.

 

 

 

RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statement presentation to conform to the current year’s format. These reclassifications had no effect on the total assets or net income as previously reported.

NOTE B: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

 

 

 

The company determined the fair value of the investment by using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows. Inputs used in the analysis include the face value of the allocated equity of $1,396,834, a 20-year term for repayment based upon a historical trend, and a risk adjusted discount rate of 15% based on the expected compensation participants would demand because of the uncertainty of the future cash flows. The inherent risk and uncertainty associated with unobservable inputs could have a significant effect on the actual fair value of the investment.

 

 

 

The company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of July 31, 2010.

 

 

NOTE C: MEMBERS’ EQUITY

 

 

The company was formed on February 13, 2009 to have a perpetual life. The company’s ownership is divided into three or more classes, with the initial unit classes being Class A, Class B and Class C. The profits, losses and distributions of the company will be allocated to each class of units based on class percentage ownership, then among the unit holders of a class in proportion to the total units held. Transfer of the units is restricted pursuant to the operating agreement and to the applicable tax and securities laws and requires approval of the board of managers. Members holding Class A units are entitled to one vote for each unit held on matters requiring a membership vote including election of the managers to the board of managers. Class B and C units have no voting rights. The rights and privileges associated with the Class C units cannot be amended without the consent of the holders of a majority of the Class C units and/or warrants to acquire a majority of the Class C units.

 

 

 

The company was initially capitalized by a member who received 100,000 Class A units upon formation of the company. Subsequently, the company’s member contributed a total of $2,194,945 as capital contributions.

 

 

 

The company also prepared a prospectus for an intrastate offering. The offering was for an aggregate maximum of 4,344,274 Class B Units. The units were only offered and sold to residents of the State of South Dakota who were corn producers that had corn delivery contracts with the previous owner of the plant. The value of the units are equal to a portion of the difference between the price of corn under corn delivery contracts that were cancelled in connection with the bankruptcy proceedings of a previous owner and the futures price of corn for the related delivery month. Corn producers with cancelled contracts, related to the bankruptcy proceedings of a previous owner had the opportunity to receive 50 percent of the price differential in the form of non-voting Class B Units and 50 percent of the price differential in quarterly cash payments based on an excess cash flow formula set forth in the company’s loan agreements in exchange for executing a master corn delivery and subscription agreement with the company in which the producer agreed to deliver the same number of bushels of corn as the cancelled contracts.

F-11



 

 

NOTE C: MEMBER’S EQUITY (continued)

 

 

The total price differential for all cancelled contracts was $8,688,548, of which up to $4,344,274 paid out of excess cash flow and up to $4,344,274 paid in Class B Units (4,344,274 Class B Units, valued at $1 per unit). Each Class B Unit represents the right to receive 0.00000092 percent of the company’s assets, profits, losses and distributions. The company’s managers, officers, affiliates and future business partners that had corn contracts were able to purchase Class B Units in this offering. No cash proceeds were received from the sale of Class B Units in this offering. The company terminated this offering on November 17, 2009.

 

 

 

In total, 175 of the 214 producers who had cancelled contracts accepted all or partial terms of the prospectus and executed new corn delivery contracts, which provided for total cash payments in the amount of $2,810,401 and Class B Units in the amount of $2,727,604. During the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, a total of $1,010,217 and $1,730,948 of excess cash flows was paid and Class B Units valued at $396,340 and $2,262,029 have been issued in connection with these corn contracts, respectively.

 

 

 

On June 30, 2010, the company issued 100 Class A Units in exchange for $6,805,055. The units are to be held by the subscriber for its own interests and not for sale or freely transferable in connection with any distribution of such interest.

 

 

 

Also on June 30, 2010, the majority owner of the company entered into an agreement to sell 48,949 Class A Units to another party. The agreement included an initial transfer constituting 48.9% of the outstanding Class A units, and an option to purchase additional Class A units from the majority owner up to an amount which would give the member a total of 51% of the total outstanding voting and economic interests of the company. As of July 31, 2011, this option has not been exercised.

 

 

 

As of July 31, 2011, the company had outstanding 100,100 Class A units, 2,658,369 Class B units and no Class C units.

On July 23, 2009, the company entered into loan agreements with Dougherty Funding LLC that became effective on July 30, 2009, which include a term loan of $87,874,547 and a $20,000,000 revolving line of credit. These loans are secured by substantially all assets of the company. They contain restrictive covenants and require principal prepayments based on excess cash flows.

The term loan agreement requires monthly payments be made into reserve accounts with the proceeds to be used for replacement of machinery and equipment and payment of real estate taxes. The company paid loan fees of $539,375 at closing and an additional $269,658 over a twenty-four month period.

The term loan contains a variable interest rate at LIBOR plus 3% (3.2458% at July 31, 2011) and requires interest-only monthly payments for twenty-four months. Thereafter, payments will be based on monthly amortized payments of principal and interest sufficient to amortize the remaining unpaid principal balance over a period of fifteen years with the entire unpaid principal and interest due on August 1, 2015.

The maximum funding available under the revolving line of credit was permanently reduced to $16,000,000 in June 2010 upon the receipt of additional member contributions, per the lending agreement. Availability on the revolving line of credit is also limited to the amount calculated in the borrowing base report and expires August 1, 2015. The loan agreement provides a variable interest rate at LIBOR plus 3% (3.2458% at July 31, 2011). There is an unused line fee on the daily unused portion of the commitment at a rate of 0.25% per quarter.

Subsequent to year-end, the company refinanced the term loan and revolving line of credit. Included in current maturities are principal payments of $2,750,000 due within twelve months of the reporting period as determined by the new debt terms. Also included in current maturities is $4,631,961 which represents payments made against the existing debt subsequent to year-end but before the refinancing date, and $7,915,527 that the company was required to pay on the existing debt as part of the refinancing agreement.

NOTE F: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

 

 

Grain agency agreement

 

 

 

In June 2009, the company entered into a grain agency agreement with FREMAR, LLC, a party related through common ownership, to act as the company’s agent to procure all corn required for ethanol production through the agency agreement. All purchases must be approved by the company prior to a contract being entered into. The agreement’s initial term is for four years and will be automatically renewed for two successive four-year terms unless either party gives written notice within six months of the current term expiration to the other party of its election not to renew. The agreement may also be terminated by either party upon sixty days’ written notice.

 

 

 

The agreement requires the company to pay FREMAR, LLC a fee per bushel of corn purchases for the initial four year term. The fee may be adjusted at the renewal of the agreement. The company is also required to maintain a security deposit of $500,000 with FREMAR, LLC for corn purchases, which is included in deposits on the accompanying balance sheet. The company has purchased $19,295,435 and $34,606,206 of corn, which $316,857 and $224,401 are included in related party payables, and incurred $622,182 and $673,392 in marketing fees related to this agreement, for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The company subsequently received a refund of this deposit. The company will also have the ability to purchase corn from other suppliers if offered at a lesser price.

In preparing these financial statements, the company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through November 14, 2011, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

(b) REX American Resources Corporation

 

Pro Forma Consolidated (unaudited) Financial Information

 

 

 

On November 1, 2011, REX NuGen, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of REX American Resources Corporation (“REX” or “the Company”) completed the acquisition of Class A membership interest units of NuGen Energy, LLC (“NuGen”) from Central Farmers Cooperative (“CFC”) pursuant to the Unit Purchase and Option Agreement dated July 25, 2011 (the “Agreement”) among REX and CFC. The Class A Units constitute a 51% voting interest and a 50% equity interest in NuGen on a fully diluted basis. The acquisition resulted in the Company owning a 100% voting interest and a 98% equity interest in NuGen.

 

 

 

The data in the unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the year ended January 31, 2011 and the nine months ended October 31, 2011 assumes that the acquisition was completed on February 1, 2010. The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2011 gives effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on October 31, 2011.

 

 

 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information has been derived from the application of pro forma adjustments to the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and NuGen. The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually been reported had the acquisition occurred as of the beginning of the periods presented or at the balance sheet date presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future financial position or results of operations. The pro forma adjustments give effect to the preliminary estimated allocation of the acquisition purchase price. The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions we believe are reasonable.

 

 

 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information includes historical financial information for the Company and NuGen. The Company’s historical consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2011 and its historical consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 were taken from the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2011. The Company’s historical consolidated statement of operations for the year ended January 31, 2011 was taken from the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2011.

 

 

 

Information related to NuGen’s historical balance sheet used to determine the investment value as of October 31, 2011 was derived from NuGen’s unaudited balance sheet as of October 31, 2011 not included in this Form 8-K/A. Information related to NuGen’s historical statement of operations for the year ended January 31, 2011 for inclusion in the consolidated pro forma statements of operations was derived from NuGen’s unaudited statement of operations for the twelve months ended January 31, 2011 not included in this Form 8-K/A. Information related to NuGen’s historical statement of operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 was derived from its unaudited statement of operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 not included in this Form 8-K/A.

 

 

 

The preliminary purchase price of approximately $29.1 million includes the estimated fair value of the Company’s previous 48% equity interest in NuGen, which was $18.6 million, and cash of $10.5 million (representing $12.7 million cash paid at closing, net of $2.2 million which was used to repay the remaining contingent consideration liability associated with the Company’s initial equity method investment). Amounts disbursed at closing of $12.7 million were paid out of the Company’s cash holdings and no debt was issued in connection with the acquisition. The purchase price of $29.1 million has been allocated on a preliminary basis to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value as of the date of acquisition. This allocation resulted in the book basis of fixed assets being decreased for purposes of pro forma presentation. Thus, less depreciation expense was taken in the pro forma financial statements for the “step down” of fixed assets. Furthermore, the Company determined that it has a controlling interest in NuGen; therefore, the Company will consolidate the financial results of NuGen in its consolidated financial statements.

 

 

 

The unaudited pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company included on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2011 and Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2011 and with the historical audited financial statements of NuGen for the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 included in this Form 8-K/A.

REX AMERICAN RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information (unaudited)

Note 1 Represents the acquisition of the 50% interest in NuGen resulting in REX having a total ownership of 98% of NuGen:

Total fair value of acquisition

 

$

29,055

 

 

 



 

Note 2 The estimated fair value of the assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed was approximately $38.0 million, which exceeds the fair value of the consideration by approximately $9.0 million (bargain purchase). The bargain purchase was calculated after the original 48% equity method investment was adjusted to estimated fair value at the acquisition date. This adjustment resulted in REX’s original 48% equity method investment being reduced by approximately $5.4 million. In addition, fixed assets and inventory were adjusted to their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. Depreciation expense on this adjustment of fixed assets is included as a pro forma adjustment. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of November 1, 2011:

Note 5 Equity in income of unconsolidated ethanol affiliates in the Consolidated Pro Forma Statements of Operations has been adjusted for historical amounts REX reported as its share of NuGen’s earnings using the equity method of accounting.

Note 6 A tax rate of 38%, REX’s statutory rate for the year ended January 31, 2011 and the nine months ended October 31, 2011, was used to calculate related income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments.

Note 7 Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was computed as two percent of NuGen’s historical pre-tax income adjusted for the pro forma depreciation and management fee adjustments.

PF-5


Note 8 The carrying value (at October 31, 2011) of REX’s equity method investment in NuGen (REX owned 48% of NuGen at October 31, 2011) of $22.8 million is eliminated from the pro forma consolidated balance sheet as REX will be consolidating the results of NuGen, subsequent to the acquisition.

Note 9 Subsequent to the acquisition, NuGen refinanced its existing long-term debt and its revolving line of credit. The new loan agreement provided for a term loan of $55.0 million for the purpose of refinancing NuGen’s existing indebtedness and a $10.0 million revolving line of credit. The term loan bears interest of LIBOR plus 3.25%, subject to a 4% floor. Principal and interest payments are due quarterly based on a ten year amortization schedule and the remaining unpaid principal and interest is due on October 31, 2016. The revolving line of credit bears interest of LIBOR plus 3% subject to a 3.75% floor. All amounts owing on the line of credit will be due in full on November 1, 2012. The refinancing resulted in NuGen using $14.8 million of existing cash (which includes $7.0 million that was contributed by REX to NuGen subsequent to the acquisition) and using $1.3 million of restricted cash. Such amounts were used to pay down the existing debt, loan fees and other costs associated with the refinancing.
