- **2026 Growth Drivers**: Agribusiness expects improved grain market certainty; Renewables anticipate $90-100M 45Z tax credit impact. 
- **Key Projects Online**: Soybean meal export (Q3 2026), mineral processing (Q2 2026), and corn/wheat processing expansions. 
- **Financial Strength**: Debt/EBITDA 1.8x, $278M annual cash flow. 
- **Long-Term Vision**: Updated EPS target of $7 by 2028 exit, up from prior $4.30.

**【CEO Summary Section】**
- **Record Q4 EPS**: $1.97 per diluted share, driven by strong performance in both Agribusiness and Renewables segments.
- **Western Grain Belt Harvest**: Larger-than-expected grain volumes allowed favorable basis accumulation, supporting space income and sorghum exports.
- **Ethanol Production**: Record production with 30 million gallons of incremental capacity coming online in 2027 at Clymers, IN. Ethanol exports reached a record level, supporting crush margins despite higher corn basis and natural gas costs.
- **Capital Projects**: Key 2026 initiatives include soybean meal export capacity at Port of Houston (Q3 2026), Phase 2 mineral processing in New Mexico (Q2 2026), and corn/wheat light processing expansions.
- **2026 Outlook**: Agribusiness expects improved global grain market certainty; Renewables anticipate strong ethanol demand with potential policy support (e.g., year-round E15). Long-term EPS target updated to $7 by 2028 exit.

**【CFO Financial Commentary】**
- **Q4 Financials**: Net income $67M ($1.97 EPS), adjusted EBITDA $137M (8% YoY increase in Renewables). Full-year adjusted EBITDA $337M, down 7% from 2024 due to ag market challenges.
- **Cash Flow**: Q4 operating cash flow $110M, full-year $278M (down 14% YoY). Long-term debt/EBITDA ratio 1.8x, well below 2.5x target.
