Company Overview

overview logo History and Background

REX American Resources Corporation, founded in 1984, initially focused on coal mining. Over time, it transitioned to ethanol production, becoming a significant player in the renewable energy sector.

business area logo Core Business Areas

  • Ethanol Production: REX operates ethanol production facilities, converting corn into ethanol for fuel use. They also produce dried distillers grains (DDGs) as a co-product.
  • Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS): REX invests in projects related to carbon capture and sequestration, aiming to reduce the carbon footprint of its ethanol production.

leadership logo Leadership and Structure

REX American Resources Corporation is led by CEO Stuart Rose. The organizational structure includes departments for operations, finance, and marketing, among others.

Top Products and Market Share

overview logo Key Offerings

  • Ethanol: REX produces ethanol for fuel blending. Market share varies depending on region, but ethanol production is a competitive market. Competitors include Green Plains (GPRE), POET, and ADM (ADM). Revenue from ethanol production comprises the majority of their total revenue, but it's difficult to pinpoint precisely without access to proprietary data. The market is heavily influenced by government regulations and gasoline prices.
  • Dried Distillers Grains (DDGs): DDGs are a co-product of ethanol production used as animal feed. Market share for DDGs is also fragmented, with many regional producers. The price is influenced by corn prices and livestock feed demand. Competitors are other ethanol plants, soy processors, and other sources of animal feed.
