Ethanol Growth Strategy

Benchmark’s new Buy rating focuses on the company’s ethanol segment, which is gaining momentum as agribusiness headwinds ease. The rating notes that ANDE’s long‑term growth plan targets earnings per share of US$7.00 by 2028, a 36 % compounded annual growth rate from 2026 onward. To support this trajectory, the firm is investing US$60 million in a capacity expansion at its Clymers, Indiana ethanol plant and upgrading its export terminal at the Port of Houston. These strategic initiatives are aimed at increasing throughput and operational efficiency, thereby reinforcing ANDE’s competitive position in both agribusiness and renewable fuel markets.
