Oh added: "Biodiesel demand is growing due to the implementation of Renewable Fuel Standard 2. We are building a business with competitive advantages that can meet this demand. Going into 2012, we believe we are well-positioned as the leading producer of biodiesel from low cost feedstocks in the United States."
Operating Highlights
REG sold
150 million gallons of biodiesel in 2011, an increase of 121% compared
to 2010. The increase in gallons sold was primarily due to an increase
in biodiesel demand compared to 2010 as petroleum-fuel refiners and
importers sought to meet their renewable volume obligations to purchase
biomass-based diesel under the Renewable Fuel Standard 2 ("RFS2") law,
which went into effect in mid-2010. RFS2 required the consumption of 800
million gallons of biodiesel in 2011 and requires 1 billion gallons of
consumption in 2012.
REG was able to take advantage of this increased demand primarily due to
greater capacity utilization and improving throughput at all of its
biorefineries, the purchase and restart of a dormant 30 million
gallon/year biorefinery in
Throughout 2011, REG's liquidity improved substantially. Cash grew from

* RIN refers to Renewable Identification Number, a tracking number associated with each gallon of biodiesel produced industry-wide. RINs are used to track compliance with RFS2 production directives. RINs are tradable, and can be purchased and sold by producers and refiners to satisfy RFS2 requirements.

Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
REG
presents Adjusted EBITDA because REG believes it assists investors in
analyzing its performance across reporting periods on a consistent
basis. In addition, REG uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate, assess and
benchmark its financial performance on a consistent and comparable
basis. REG excludes non-cash stock-based compensation and other non-cash
other income (expense) items because it does not believe that they are
indicative of REG's ongoing operating performance. REG's measure of
Adjusted EBITDA might be different than similar financial measures used
by other companies. Non-GAAP metrics are not determined in accordance
with GAAP and are not a substitute for or superior to financial measures
determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated
by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Revenues.
