News Release
DARLING INGREDIENTS INC. REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2016 FINANCIAL RESULTS AGGRESSIVE DEBT REDUCTION WHILE MANAGING GLOBAL COMMODITY VOLATILITY
AND FOOD SEGMENT CHALLENGES
3rd Quarter 2016 Highlights
• | Net income of $28.7 million, or $0.17 per GAAP diluted share |
• | Revenue of $853.9 million |
• | Adjusted EBITDA of $106.2 million |
• | Margin expansion tempered by Food Segment production challenges and inventory adjustment |
• | Record grain harvests drove lower finished product pricing for global fats and an oversupply of proteins |
• | Diamond Green Diesel (‘DGD’) delivers strongest earnings to date |
• | Solid cash flow generation with aggressive debt reduction of $60 million |
November 10, 2016 - IRVING, TEXAS - Darling Ingredients Inc. (NYSE: DAR), a global leader in converting edible and inedible bio-nutrient streams into a wide range of ingredients and specialty products for customers in the pharmaceutical, food, pet food, feed, industrial, fuel, bioenergy, and fertilizer industries, today announced financial results for the third quarter ending October 1, 2016.
For the third quarter of 2016, the Company reported net sales of $853.9 million, as compared with net sales of $853.8 million for the third quarter of 2015. Net income attributable to Darling for the three months ended October 1, 2016 was $28.7 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($9.1) million, or ($0.06) per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2015. The increase in net income is primarily attributable to higher earnings from DGD due to the inclusion of the blenders' tax credit which was not available as of the end of the third quarter of 2015, higher Renewable Identification Number (“RIN”) values, and an income tax benefit. Adjusted EBITDA for Darling for the three months ended October 1, 2016 was $106.2 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $106.1 million for the three months ended October 3, 2015.
Comments on the Third Quarter of 2016
Randall C. Stuewe, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Darling Ingredients Inc., said, “We continue to execute against our strategic plan to de-lever and grow while managing through considerable volatility in many of our markets.”
“Our Feed Ingredients segment results were predictably lower due to record North American crop harvests weighing on global pricing for fats and proteins. However, strong tonnage offset some price volatility, and our model is adjusting to lower finished product values. Food segment performance disappointed due to several moving parts, including major annual plant turnarounds and softness in China compressing margin expansion. Our Fuel segment was seasonally driven and continued to perform well with strong demand for biofuel feedstock in Europe.”
Commenting on the Company’s overall strategy, Mr. Stuewe said, “Our diversified portfolio and strong risk management have positioned us to navigate through the variability of our markets. We continue to develop a pipeline of opportunities for long-term growth while streamlining our cost structure, aggressively reducing debt and maintaining solid financial footing. We intend to manage the volatile markets through the fourth quarter and carry good momentum into 2017.”

Operational Update by Segment
• | Feed Ingredients - Segment executed well in light of volatile and declining global fat prices and an oversupply of proteins. The decline in fat prices were tempered by the growing world demand for biofuels. Further, USA impacted by hot summer, which affected rendering quality and plant processing efficiencies. Raw material volumes were strong around the globe, and our two new U.S. rendering plants are nearing capacity and fully contributing. Europe, USA and Canada rendering delivered as expected. Bakery Feeds tonnage increased and business delivered solid results. Our global blood business was slightly lower but demand remains strong in China. |
• | Food Ingredients - Segment challenged with reduced demand in China for low bloom gelatin, which drove an inventory write-down. Major annual maintenance turnarounds at plants in China and USA also affected results. Margins contracted slightly due to higher raw material prices and production processing slowdowns. Sonac edible fat earnings declined as some raw material diversion to China continued. CTH casings business improved and produced as expected. |
• | Fuel Ingredients - Segment experienced typical seasonality with less tonnage to Rendac and Ecoson sequentially; however, improved volumes and operating performance contributed to year-over-year increase. Canada Biodiesel delivered on target and ahead of last year. |
• | Diamond Green Diesel Joint Venture - Operating at current full capacity, DGD demonstrated outstanding performance and reported its strongest earnings contribution to date, improving EBITDA by 23 percent from the previous quarter. Lower fat prices, stable heating oil and rising RIN values combined with more Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) demand supported unconsolidated EBITDA of $22.5 million for Darling. Final engineering is complete for the DGD facility expansion, which at full capacity will increase annual production from 160 million gallons to 275 million gallons. Construction is now scheduled for completion in early Q2 2018. |
Reconciliation of Net Income to (Non-GAAP) Adjusted EBITDA and (Non-GAAP) Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA Third Quarter 2016 as compared to Third Quarter 2015
Darling Ingredients Inc. reports Adjusted EBITDA results, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as a complement to results provided in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) (for additional information, see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included later in this media release). The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional useful information to investors. Adjusted EBITDA, as the Company uses the term, is calculated below:

On a sequential basis, for the three months ended October 1, 2016, the Company generated Adjusted EBITDA of $106.2 million, as compared to $124.0 million for the three months ended July 2, 2016, a decrease of $17.8 million. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower finished product prices in both the Food and Feed Ingredients segments. Lower finished product prices for fats and used cooking oil in the Feed Ingredients segment more than offset higher sales volumes which contributed to the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA.
DGD Joint Venture Adjusted EBITDA (Darling’s share) is not reflected in the Adjusted EBITDA, the Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA, or the Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA to Foreign Currency. See Note 6 in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended October 1, 2016 and the DGD Operating Financial Results included at the end of this press release for financial information regarding the DGD Joint Venture.

• | Feed Ingredients operating income for the three months ended October 1, 2016 was $35.3 million, a decrease of $0.3 million as compared to the three months ended October 3, 2015. Earnings for the Feed Ingredients segment were lower due to an increase in depreciation and amortization as a result of new plants in the U.S. and lower finished product prices that more than offset higher production volumes due to higher raw material supply and lower selling, general and administrative expense. |
• | Feed Ingredients operating income for the nine months ended October 1, 2016 was $90.5 million, a decrease of $15.9 million as compared to the first nine months ended October 3, 2015. Earnings for the Feed Ingredients segment were lower due to the significant decline in protein finished product prices resulting from near record grain production in fiscal year 2015 and 2016. Higher depreciation and amortization in fiscal 2016 due to placing new plants into production in the U.S. were offset by reduced selling, general and administrative expense. |

• | Food Ingredients operating income was $7.9 million for the three months ended October 1, 2016, a decrease of $3.7 million as compared to the three months ended October 3, 2015. Selling, general and administrative expense in the Food Ingredients segment was reduced due to gains in currency hedges. The Company’s casing business improved compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the re-opening of the Chinese border which was temporarily closed in 2015 to the import of meat by-products which heavily impacted the segment. European edible fats performance declined over the prior year due to lower volumes and sales prices. The gelatin business earnings were down as compared to the prior year due to an inventory value adjustment in China of $3.5 million as a result of the decrease in demand for low bloom gelatin. The gelatin business was also impacted by lower production volumes in three of the Company’s gelatin facilities. |

The gelatin business earnings improved compared to the prior year primarily due to strong profitability in the Company’s North American, South American and European operations. European edible fats performance normalized over the prior year due to stable sales prices. The Company’s casing business improved as compared to the same period in the prior year, due primarily to higher sale volumes. Selling, general and administrative expense was reduced by $9.9 million which included significant gains on currency hedges. |

• | Exclusive of the DGD Joint Venture, Fuel Ingredients operating income for the three months ended October 1, 2016 was $6.0 million, an increase of $5.8 million as compared to the three months ended October 3, 2015. The increase in earnings is primarily due to the fact that during the three months ended October 1, 2016 the Canadian biodiesel plant was operating for the full period while in the comparable period in 2015 production was limited. The increase was also attributable to improved Ecoson and Rendac volumes and operating performance and by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expense due to subsidies received from the Netherlands government that is recorded as a credit to selling, general and administrative expense. |

The increase is primarily attributable to increased margins and production in both the Food and Fuel Ingredients segments, higher raw material volumes in the Feed Ingredients segment and lower selling, general and administrative expense.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized accounting measurement under GAAP; it should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as a measure of operating results, or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, and is not intended to be a presentation in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is presented here not as an alternative to net income, but rather as a measure of the Company’s operating performance. Since EBITDA (generally, net income plus interest expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is not calculated identically by all companies, this presentation may not be comparable to EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA presentations disclosed by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated in this presentation and represents, for any relevant period, net income/(loss) plus depreciation and amortization, goodwill and long-lived asset impairment, interest expense, (income)/loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, income tax provision, other income/(expense) and equity in net loss of unconsolidated subsidiary. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry because the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and certain non-cash and other items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
As a result, the Company’s management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure to evaluate performance and for other discretionary purposes. In addition to the foregoing, management also uses or will use Adjusted EBITDA to measure compliance with certain financial covenants under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities and 5.375% Notes and 4.75% Notes that were outstanding at October 1, 2016. However, the amounts shown in this presentation for Adjusted EBITDA differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities and 5.375% Notes and 4.75% Notes, as those definitions permit further adjustments to reflect certain other non-recurring costs, non-cash charges and cash dividends from the DGD Joint Venture. Additionally, the Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange impact on operating cash flow, which is defined as segment operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization.

These factors include, among others, existing and unknown future limitations on the ability of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries to make their cash flow available to the Company for payments on the Company's indebtedness or other purposes; global demands for bio-fuels and grain and oilseed commodities, which have exhibited volatility, and can impact the cost of feed for cattle, hogs and poultry, thus affecting available rendering feedstock and selling prices for the Company’s products; reductions in raw material volumes available to the Company due to weak margins in the meat production industry as a result of higher feed costs, reduced consumer demand or other factors, reduced volume from food service establishments, or otherwise; reduced demand for animal feed; reduced finished product prices, including a decline in fat and used cooking oil finished product prices; changes to worldwide government policies relating to renewable fuels and greenhouse gas emissions that adversely affect programs like the Renewable Fuel Standards Program (RFS2), low carbon fuel standards (LCFS) and tax credits for biofuels both in the Unites States and abroad; possible product recall resulting from developments relating to the discovery of unauthorized adulterations to food or food additives; the occurrence of Bird Flu including, but not limited to H5N1 flu, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (or "BSE"), porcine epidemic diarrhea ("PED") or other diseases associated with animal origin in the United States or elsewhere; unanticipated costs and/or reductions in raw material volumes related to the Company’s compliance with the existing or unforeseen new U.S. or foreign regulations (including, without limitation, China) affecting the industries in which the Company operates or its value added products (including new or modified animal feed, Bird Flu, PED or BSE or similar or unanticipated regulations); risks associated with the renewable diesel plant in Norco, Louisiana owned and operated by a joint venture between Darling Ingredients and Valero Energy Corporation, including possible unanticipated operating disruptions and issues related to the announced expansion project; difficulties or a significant disruption in our information systems or failure to implement new systems and software successfully, including our ongoing enterprise resource planning project; risks relating to possible third party claims of intellectual property infringement; increased contributions to the Company’s pension and benefit plans, including multiemployer and employer-sponsored defined benefit pension plans as required by legislation, regulation or other applicable U.S. or foreign law or resulting from a U.S. mass withdrawal event; bad debt write-offs; loss of or failure to obtain necessary permits and registrations; continued or escalated conflict in the Middle East, North Korea, Ukraine or elsewhere; uncertainty regarding the likely exit of the U.K. from the European Union; and/or unfavorable export or import markets. These factors, coupled with volatile prices for natural gas and diesel fuel, climate conditions, currency exchange fluctuations, general performance of the U.S. and global economies, disturbances in world financial, credit, commodities and stock markets, and any decline in consumer confidence and discretionary spending, including the inability of consumers and companies to obtain credit due to lack of liquidity in the financial markets, among others, could negatively impact the Company's results of operations. Among other things, future profitability may be affected by the Company’s ability to grow its business, which faces competition from companies that may have substantially greater resources than the Company. The Company’s announced share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and purchases of shares under the program are subject to market conditions and other factors, which are likely to change from time to time. Other risks and uncertainties regarding Darling Ingredients Inc., its business and the industries in which it operates are referenced from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Darling Ingredients Inc. is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.}

Exhibit 99.2

This presentation contains “forward-looking” statements regarding the business operations and prospects of Darling Ingredients Inc. and industry factors affecting
it. These statements are identified by words such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “could,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “planned,” “potential,”
“continue,” “momentum,” and other words referring to events that may occur in the future. These statements reflect Darling Ingredient’s current view of future
events and are based on its assessment of, and are subject to, a variety of risks and uncertainties beyond its control, each of which could cause actual results to
differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, existing and unknown future limitations on the
ability of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries to make their cash flow available to the Company for payments on the Company's indebtedness or other
purposes; global demands for bio-fuels and grain and oilseed commodities, which have exhibited volatility, and can impact the cost of feed for cattle, hogs and
poultry, thus affecting available rendering feedstock and selling prices for the Company’s products; reductions in raw material volumes available to the Company
due to weak margins in the meat production industry as a result of higher feed costs, reduced consumer demand or other factors, reduced volume from food
service establishments, or otherwise; reduced demand for animal feed; reduced finished product prices, including a decline in fat and used cooking oil finished
product prices; changes to worldwide government policies relating to renewable fuels and greenhouse gas emissions that adversely affect programs like the
Renewable Fuel Standards Program (RFS2), low carbon fuel standards (LCFS) and tax credits for biofuels both in the Unites States and abroad; possible product
recall resulting from developments relating to the discovery of unauthorized adulterations to food or food additives; the occurrence of Bird Flu including, but not
limited to H5N1 flu, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (or "BSE"), porcine epidemic diarrhea ("PED") or other diseases associated with animal origin in the United
States or elsewhere; unanticipated costs and/or reductions in raw material volumes related to the Company’s compliance with the existing or unforeseen new U.S.
or foreign regulations (including, without limitation, China) affecting the industries in which the Company operates or its value added products (including new or
modified animal feed, Bird Flu, PED or BSE or similar or unanticipated regulations); risks associated with the renewable diesel plant in Norco, Louisiana owned and
operated by a joint venture between Darling Ingredients and Valero Energy Corporation, including possible unanticipated operating disruptions and issues related
to the announced expansion project; difficulties or a significant disruption in our information systems or failure to implement new systems and software
successfully, including our ongoing enterprise resource planning project; risks relating to possible third party claims of intellectual property infringement; increased
contributions to the Company’s pension and benefit plans, including multiemployer and employer-sponsored defined benefit pension plans as required by
legislation, regulation or other applicable U.S. or foreign law or resulting from a U.S. mass withdrawal event; bad debt write-offs; loss of or failure to obtain
necessary permits and registrations; continued or escalated conflict in the Middle East, North Korea, Ukraine or elsewhere; uncertainty regarding the likely exit of
the U.K. from the European Union; and/or unfavorable export or import markets. These factors, coupled with volatile prices for natural gas and diesel fuel, climate
conditions, currency exchange fluctuations, general performance of the U.S. and global economies, disturbances in world financial, credit, commodities and stock
markets, and any decline in consumer confidence and discretionary spending, including the inability of consumers and companies to obtain credit due to lack of
liquidity in the financial markets, among others, could negatively impact the Company's results of operations. Among other things, future profitability may be
affected by the Company’s ability to grow its business, which faces competition from companies that may have substantially greater resources than the Company.
The Company’s announced share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and purchases of shares under the program are subject to
market conditions and other factors, which are likely to change from time to time. Other risks and uncertainties regarding Darling Ingredients Inc., its business and
the industries in which it operates are referenced from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Darling Ingredients Inc.
is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise.

Protein Pricing
o Protein prices globally under pressure due to
large crops and move to “Vegetable or Animal

Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized accounting measurement under GAAP; it should not be considered as an
alternative to net income, as a measure of operating results, or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of
liquidity, and is not intended to be a presentation in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is presented here not
as an alternative to net income, but rather as a measure of the Company’s operating performance. Since EBITDA
(generally, net income plus interest expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is not calculated identically by
all companies, this presentation may not be comparable to EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA presentations disclosed by
other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated in this presentation and represents, for any relevant period, net
income/(loss) plus depreciation and amortization, goodwill and long-lived asset impairment, interest expense,
(income)/loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, income tax provision, other income/(expense) and equity in
net loss of unconsolidated subsidiary. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating the
Company’s operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry because the calculation of
Adjusted EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and certain non-cash and other items
that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
As a result, the Company’s management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure to evaluate performance and for other
discretionary purposes. In addition to the foregoing, management also uses or will use Adjusted EBITDA to measure
compliance with certain financial covenants under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities and 5.375% Notes
and 4.75% Notes that were outstanding at October 1, 2016. However, the amounts shown in this presentation for
Adjusted EBITDA differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in the Company’s Senior
Secured Credit Facilities and 5.375% Notes and 4.75% Notes, as those definitions permit further adjustments to
reflect certain other non-recurring costs, non-cash charges and cash dividends from the DGD Joint Venture.
Additionally, the Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange impact on operating cash flow, which is defined
as segment operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization.
