Ethanol Producers Show Long Term Earnings Potential
2011-08-05 08:16 ET - News Release
NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 08/05/11
Ethanol prices have skyrocketed in recent quarters as high fuel prices stoked demand for the corn-based additive from oil refiners. While concerns about a slowing global economy have slowed ethanol prices of late, producers remain optimistic going forward. The Bedford Report examines the outlook for companies in the Ethanol Industry and provides investment research on Pacific Ethanol Corporation (NASDAQ: PEIX) and Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM). Access to the full company reports can be found at:
New EPA regulations set forth this year have likely solidified ethanol's future in gasoline. The EPA approved the use of up to 15 percent ethanol in gasoline in vehicles produced during 2001-2006. The EPA had already approved the 15 percent ethanol tolerance for vehicles made in 2007 or later.
Ethanol can be used in much higher proportions, with up to 85 percent ethanol in special factory-produced vehicles. A growing number of these vehicles are being produced by auto manufacturers to test market demand for such a vehicle.

Earlier this week Archer Daniels Midland said net income for the reported quarter was $381.0 million or 58 cents per share compared with $446.0 million or 69 cents per share in the year-ago quarter. According to Archer Daniels, profit from making ethanol was up sharply but that was offset by escalating costs in other businesses, including sweeteners and starches that also rely on corn.
Last week Pacific Ethanol reported revenue of $215 million, up from $77 million in the second quarter last year. Total gallons sold were 100.6 million for the second quarter of 2011, an increase of 54% over the 65.4 million gallons sold in the second quarter of 2010.

Petrobras boosts ethanol investment to increase capacity
By Kris Bevill | August 16, 2011

Petrobras announced recently that its biofuels division will invest heavily in the expansion of its ethanol and biodiesel production capabilities in order to meet growing domestic demand. The firm has earmarked a total of $4.1 billion for biofuels over the next five years, according to its 2011-‘15 business plan, with $2.5 billion dedicated to increased ethanol and biodiesel production, $1.3 billion allocated to ethanol logistics and $300 million for cellulosic ethanol research. The updated investment plans represent a $600 million increase in Petobras’ commitment to biofuels over its previous plan, which called for $3.5 billion to be invested in the sector between 2010 and 2014.
According to Petrobras, establishing new ethanol plants is a priority of its five-year plan, and most of the money dedicated for biofuels will be used for that purpose. The firm has committed 76 percent of the $2.5 billion production investment to ethanol; 70 percent of which will be used to establish new plants, increase sugarcane crushing capacity and renew plantations. “Together with partners, the goal is to reach a volume of 5.6 billion liters [approximately 1.4 billion gallons] in 2015, or a 12 percent national market share,” Petrobras said in a statement. “This will ensure the company the leading position in the domestic market.”
Petrobras, which is a state-controlled integrated energy firm, currently holds ownership stakes in 10 ethanol plants with a total annual capacity of just 900 million liters (about 237 MMgy), according to its website. Its move to dramatically increase production capacity illustrates well Brazil’s need to ramp up supplies of domestic ethanol in response to growing domestic and international demand. Last year, Brazilian sugarcane producers harvested 620 million metric tons of sugarcane, which was used to produce about 38 million tons of sugar and 27.4 billion liters of ethanol, according to UNICA, the Brazilian Sugarcane Industry Association. But high sugar prices combined with two consecutive years of small sugarcane harvests and increasing consumer demand for ethanol have resulted in a supply shortage that has left Brazil’s government with little choice but to reduce the national E25 blending mandate periodically and import U.S. ethanol at times when supply is the shortest. UNICA CEO Marcos Jank told EPM recently that 130 new sugarcane mills need to be established in Brazil by 2020 in order to meet the growing demand for ethanol and that in order to achieve that level of expansion, partnerships between industry stakeholders will be required. Petrobras said it will carry out its capacity expansion plans through its existing partners Guarani, Nova Fronteira and Total Agroindustria Canavieira.
