We are in the starting blocks – the sustainability criteria may be put into practise...
By the implementation of the German Federal Biofuels Sustainability Ordinance, which became effective on November 2, 2009, manufacturers were pledged to prove a sustainable production of biofuels from July 1, 2010.
According to a press release dated April 23, 2010 the executive committee of CDU/CSU published the suspension of the practical focussing of the sustainability criteria on July 1, 2010, based on the Biofuel and the Bioenergy Sustainability Regulation, for energetic used biomass in the energy and biofuel sector to January 1, 2011.
VERBIO is already today in the position to provide a complete verification of all criteria required and therefore delivers verifiable "sustainable products" to their customers. We have been active during past months to build up a challenging and effective certification structure and we are therefore on the starting blocks. Already today, a contribution to climate protection can be done by the use of sustainable products. The statement of the parliamentarians to avoid thereby market distortion and possible disadvantages for the agriculture as well as mid-cap pressed up- and downstream economy, does not seem very conclusive…
We regret the decision to postpone the implementation to January 1, 2011. By this suspension import of goods respectively raw materials, which are known for not fulfilling the sustainability criteria, is supported- at the expense of the domestic production!
for the period from January 1, to March 31, 2010
The German Sustainability Ordinance, which came into force on November 2, 2009, regulates the verification which originates from the EU directive sustainability criteria. Thus the origin of the biomass has to be proofed completely.
As criteria for a sustainability proof serve:
According to a press release dated April 23, 2010 the executive committee of CDU/CSU published the suspension of the practical focussing of the sustainability criteria, based on the Biofuel and the Bioenergy Sustainability Regulation, from July 1, 2010 to January 1, 2011.
For 2010 and following years the mandatory share of blending volume of biofuels amounts to 6.25 per cent (energetic). The blending obligation at diesel amounts to 4.4 per cent biodiesel and at petrol with a minimum of 2.8 per cent bioethanol, each relating to the energy content. The change from the energetic quota to its net contribution to reduce greenhouse gas emission will be in 2015. However, the Federal Government strives to bring the change forward to 2013.
Consumption data released by various organisations and the German Federal Office of Economics and Export Control which extends to February 2010 as well as own estimates indicate that the total amount of fuel sold in the first quarter 2010 will be just fewer than three per cent less than last year's corresponding consumption. In this period sales of petrol will be just less than 4 per cent compared to the respective previous year's period. Decline in diesel sales will be approximately about 2 per cent.
The biodiesel share which was delivered in the first quarter 2010 to the blending industry, increased compared to the previous year's period by just less than four per cent. Sales in the domestic pure biodiesel market (B100 market) remain unchanged weak. This may have nearly halved compared to the first quarter 2009. Furthermore it remains to be seen how the strategy of the Federal Government will be to revitalise the pure biodiesel market and how to resurrect the B100 business.
Demand and therefore also sales of bioethanol on the German blending market remain nearly unchanged. Compared to the respective previous year's period sales of the so-called E85 may have increased by just less than 87 per cent.
In the first quarter of 2010 VERBIO increased its sales in the domestic fuel blending market by 15 per cent compared to the previous period. The sales of biodiesel, VERBIO delivers to the domestic blending market increased by just less than 18 per cent. This is opposed by unchanged weak sales of the B100 market, which is however approximately 86 per cent over the respective previous year's quarter. Business in foreign countries mainly focuses on Poland and Czech Republic, but is depressing because of the overall economic situation. The export quota is less than two per cent.
Compared to the previous year's quarter, VERBIOs bioethanol sales to the blending market increased of about ten per cent. It was possible to gain 2.5 per cent market share, which is in total just less than 24 per cent. VERBIO was able to take advantage from the increased demand for the special fuel E85 and therefore sales increased about 225 per cent compared to the respective previous year's period.
The crude oil price for the first quarter 2010 was at an average at USD 77 per barrel which represents a increase of approximately 70 per cent compared to the previous year's period. The development of raw material prices in the first three month moved sideways on a passage between USD 70 per barrel and USD 81 per barrel. For the current oil year, if a cyclical improvement is given, crude oil prices on average of USD 90 per barrel are predicted.
The rapeseed oil price is still on a high level. It was in the first quarter of 2010 at an average of EUR 657 per ton.
The worldwide corn stocks have reached a ten-year peak. As far as there is no significant yield losing with the new yield, in future stable prices and a sufficient raw material supply can be expected. In the first quarter of 2009 prices in the amount of EUR 143 per ton were paid for wheat (MATIF notation) but the prices decreased – in consequence of the good yield in 2009 – in the course of the year and therefore the prices are at an average of EUR 125 per ton in the first quarter of 2010.
Prices for sugar continually increased in the course of the year 2009 and were at an average of about EUR 388 per ton in the first quarter 2010. This is a result from the yield losing at sugar cane in India and Brazil. In the last weeks, price corrections have been made because of improved yield prospects. However, experts estimate with a relief of the sugar market in 2011.
| Q 1 2010 | Q 1 2009 | Change | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crude oil (Brent; USD/barrel) | 77 | 45 | +70% |
| Mineral diesel (EUR/ton) | 466 | 336 | +39% |
| Rapseed oil (EUR/ton) | 657 | 602 | +9% |

The following chart represents the relative price development of raw materials on the international markets in the first quarter 2010:
Development for selected raw materials Quarter 1, 2010 [in %, subscripted]
In the first quarter of 2010 VERBIO produced 131,306 tons of biofuels compared to 121,654 tons in the respective previous period. Revenues stood at EUR 111.5 million (Q1 2009: EUR 122.0 million) in the first quarter 2010.
In the first quarter 2010 the group operating result was at EUR 5.1 million. Compared to the first quarter 2009 the group operating result (EUR -12.0 million) increased by EUR 17.1 million. This result improvement results mainly from a margin increase because of low material expenses in the bioethanol segment (Q1 2010: EUR 30.5 million; Q1 2009: EUR 39.6 million). The group operating result was positively influenced by the sale of six wind power plants under consideration of accrued book losses (EUR 0.2 million) with book profits in the amount of EUR 3.7 million in total. Additional revenues in the amount of EUR 2.1 million resulted from the disposal of corresponding special items for investment bonuses.
Other operating income was inclusively of book profits from the sale of wind power plants and the disposal of corresponding special items at EUR 12.7 million (Q1 2009: EUR 3.6 million). Furthermore, the other operating income contains insurance refunds relating to the bioethanol segment in the amount of EUR 4.3 million. Due to a fire damage at the Zörbig site, the insurance granted a compensation for the business interruption. The insurance refund complies with the amount of the originated damage. Therefore no negative influence on the result is to be expected or will be expected by the shutdown.
Other operating expense were at EUR 9.9 million after EUR 7.9 million in the previous year and contain a book loss in the amount of EUR 0.2 million from the sale of one of six wind power plants.
The financial result amounts EUR -0.7 million (Q1 2009: EUR -0.6 million) and contains interest income in the amount of EUR 0.1 million (Q1 2009: EUR 0.5 million) and interest expenses in the amount of EUR 0.8 million (Q1 2009: EUR 1.1 million).
Taking into account the relevant applicable income taxes, net income for the period for the first quarter 2010 is in the amount of EUR 2.2 million (Q1 2009: EUR -13.8 million).

Compared to December 31, 2009 the balance sheet total reduced by EUR 23.7 million to EUR 461.9 million (December 31, 2009: EUR 485.6 million). The reduction of inventories, other assets, cash and cash equivalents and time deposits as well as assets held for sale (wind power plants) is accompanied by increased trade receivables. On the equity and liabilities side, basically current financial liabilities, other current liabilities as well as liabilities in connection with assets held for sale have been decreased while especially derivatives increased.
On the report due date, the equity ratio was at 67.0 per cent and thus 3 percentage points above 64.1 per cent on December 31, 2009.
As of March 31, 2010 VERBIO possessed liquid funds totalling EUR 33.3 million, which means a reduction of EUR 0.9 million compared to the end of 2009 (December 31, 2009: EUR 34.2 million).
As of March 31, 2010 cash funds of EUR 33.3 million only include cash and cash equivalents reported in the balance sheet. The operating cash flow amounted to EUR 19.9 million and is positively influenced by the decrease in inventories in the amount of EUR 13.7 million (Q1 2009: EUR 0.1 million) as well as a decrease in other assets in the amount of EUR 18.9 million (Q1 2009: EUR 1.7 million). This is accompanied by the increase in trade receivables in the amount of EUR 12.7 million (Q1 2009: decrease in the amount of EUR 1.7 million), the decrease of trade payables in the amount of EUR 1.7 million (Q1 2009: EUR 9.9 million) as well as the decrease of other liabilities in the amount of EUR 1.0 million (Q1 2009: increase in the amount of EUR 7.0 million).
The positive cash flow from investing activities amounts to EUR 4.5 million (Q1 2009: EUR 15.8 million). Cash payments to acquire property, plant and equipment amounted to EUR 10.0 million (Q1 2009: cash payments in the amount of 1.0 million), which are balanced by cash receipts from investment grants in the amount of EUR 0 million (Q1 2009: EUR 2.6 million) and the disposal of property, plant and equipment in the amount EUR 3.9 million (Q1 2009: EUR 0 million) as well as time deposits in the amount of EUR 10.6 million (Q1 2009: EUR 21.1 million).
The negative cash flow from financing activities in the amount of EUR 25.3 million (Q1 2009: -2.4 million) is influenced by cash payments on secured loans in the amount of EUR 19.2 million (Q1 2009: EUR 23.0 million) and cash payments for the amortisation of financial liabilities in the amount of EUR 10.7 million (Q1 2009: EUR 2.8 million). This is accompanied by proceeds from secured loans in the amount of EUR 4.6 million (Q1 2009: EUR 23.3 million).
At the end of the reporting period cash funds totalled EUR 33.3 million (Q1 2009: EUR 47.4 million). Above all, VERBIO disposes of time deposits in the amount of EUR 4 million (December 31, 2009: EUR 14.6 million) as of the due date March 31, 2010.
As of March 31, 2010 VERBIO employed 417 employees (December 31, 2009: 411 employees)thereof 155 salaried employees (December 31, 2009: 152 salaried employees), 238 industrial employees (December 31, 2009: 234 industrial employees) and 24 trainees (December 31, 2009: 25 trainees).

In the first quarter of 2010, 89,002 tons of biodiesel were produced and therefore about 13 per cent respectively 10,136 tons more than in the first quarter of 2009. Revenues amounted to EUR 72.6 million, compared to EUR 83.9 million in the respective previous period. Despite the increase in production compared to the previous year the lower revenue disclosed is based on a decrease of the enforceable market prices. The segment result before interest and tax with EUR -1.7 million was nearly stable to the level of the previous year (Q1 2009: EUR -1.6 million).

With a production of 42,304 tons of bioethanol in the first quarter of 2010, the produced amount was slightly under the respective previous year's quarter (Q1 2009: 42,788 tons). This is because of a reduction of the production capacity due to the fire damage at the Zörbig plant. Hereto it is referred to section "Other operating income" in the consolidated
interim financial statements. Due to higher market prices it was, however, possible to increase revenues in the first three month of about 9 per cent, compared to the previous year's quarter (Q1 2009: EUR 31.2 million). The segment result before interest and tax was with EUR 1.8 million clearly over the figures of the first quarter 2009 (EUR -11.3 million).
In the first three month of 2010 the energy segment contributed revenues of EUR 3.0 million (Q1 2009: EUR 5.2 million) to the total revenue. Compared to the previous year, the decrease in revenues was due to the sale of in total 11 wind power plants as well as the expiry of miscellaneous lease contracts. Therefore less feeding volume was delivered. The segment result before interest and tax was with EUR 5.1 million clearly over the result of the previous year (Q1 2009: EUR 1.0 million) and contains book profits from the sale of wind power plants in the amount of EUR 3.7 million (Q1 2009: EUR 0 million).
The other segment contains services of the captive fleet and logistics. In the first three month of 2010 revenues in the amount of EUR 1.9 million (Q1 2009: EUR 1.7 million) were generated. The segment result before interest and tax remain unchanged to the previous year's period to EUR -0.1 million.
For further information we refer to the consolidated notes of the consolidated interim financial statements.
There were no changes in VERBIOs risk and opportunity profile inthe first three month 2010 in comparison to the risks and opportunities described in detail in the 2009 annual report. From today's perspective there are no existential risks and non are currently recognisable for the future.
We anticipate a positive long-term development of the biofuel market especially due to the requirements of the RES-D and the declaration of intent in the coalition resolution.
In order to achieve the CO2 reductions established in the RES-D, the biofuel quota must be gradually increased to ten per cent in the year 2020. As a result, the demand for biofuels will increase. An additional growth potential is in the bioethanol segment due to the pushing effort of the mineral oil industry to increase the ethanol blending in petrol from currently five per cent (E5) to ten per cent (E10). Currently, it is probable that the implementation of the fuel E10 will be at the end of the year. This would result in duplication of the ethanol demand in Germany.
Above all, the carbon reduction strategy, i. e. the CO2-related obligation to use bio components in fuels is to be moved forward from 2015 to 2013. This would have the most positive effect for VERBIO since we already fulfil the requirements claimed.
For 2010 we are striving to further stabilise and expand of our market share in both the biodiesel and bioethanol segment. VERBIO aims to achieve full utilisation of the existing biodiesel and bioethanol production capacities. Additional opportunities in respect of sales and cost optimisation arise when the biogas plants located in Zörbig and Schwedt /Oder start operating. Even though the fire damage at the bioethanol plant in Zörbig temporally delayed the integration of the biogas plant in the first quarter 2010 and slightly disturbed the process, financial damages through breakdown have been settled by the respective insurance. The appointed target of a complete commissioning of the biogas plants as well as the feed-in of produced gas as biogas into the gas distribution system in the third quarter 2010 was not perilled.
Assuming that raw material prices remain stable, a significant increase in sales and positive earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) in the higher single-digit euro region are expected in the financial year 2010. The share of sales contributed by the production and feed-in of biogas will be approximately EUR 6 million in 2010. We are striving for significant contributions to results from the biogas plants and cost savings related to the operation of these plants, as well the sale of additional wind power plants.
In 2010 investments will be realised that will ensure the long-term success of the VERBIO Group. These are primarily investments in the completion of the biogas plants, as well as the ongoing upgrading of the existing production plants. For 2010 we expect investments in this field of approximately EUR 22 million.
To ensure long-term raw material supply for production we are planning to set up crop growing contracts to further accelerate the contractual relationships with farmers.
For 2011 we anticipate a further improvement of the earnings situation, which will result mainly from additional earnings of the feed-in tariff of biogas.
Anticipated price increases of raw materials for 2011 are to be compensated for by changes in the raw material mix.
Until 2012 we intend, through further expansion and the optimisation of the biogas plants, to increase the capacities and the production, so that every second German natural gas car can be driven with VERBIO biogas, corresponding to our targeted market share of over 50 per cent.
In the long-term VERBIO will benefit more than others from the specifications and regulations of the "Biofuel Sustainability Regulation" and the "Renewable Energy Sources Directive".
We continually monitor economic developments, and in the event of a deterioration of the economic or industry-specific situation, we will immediately take appropriate measures.

In order to secure the supply of raw materials for biodiesel production, derivatives are used in the form of future contracts for vegetable oil to hedge against margin-effecting price levels and as a procurement instrument to secure access to the raw materials. As of balance sheet date, the positive market value of these futures came to EUR 1,527 k (December 31, 2009: EUR 1,314 k) and the negative market values amounting EUR 149 k (December 31, 2009: EUR 365 k). These market values are recognised directly in equity.
VERBIO used futures to hedge against falling prices from firm obligations for rapeseed. As of the balance sheet date, the negative market value came to EUR 494 k (December 31, 2009: negative market value in the amount of EUR 183 k) and was recognised in the result of forward contracts, affecting net income.
Hedging in the form of fixed diesel sales to counter variable diesel sales was undertaken to secure revenue from sales contracts linked to the mineral diesel price.

Income from insurance recovery was gained as adjustment for business interruption at the Zörbig site.
The gain on the disposal of property, plant and equipment of EUR 3,654 k resulted from the sale of five wind power plants relating to the energy segment. As of December 31, 2009, this amount include gains from the balance sheet item "non-current assets held for sale" for reclassified wind power plants in the amount of EUR 463 k. Due to sales the special item for deferred investment grants which is allocated to the wind power plants in the amount of EUR 2,084 k were released through the income statement. The release amount includes revenues from the balance sheet item as of December 31, 2009 "Liabilities in connection with non-current assets held for sale" from reclassified wind power plants in the amount of EUR 876 k.
Cost of materials mainly comprises procurement of raw materials, consumables and supplies for the running production. The cost of materials ratio (cost of materials relating to revenue, change in unfinished and finished products and own work capitalised) amounts to 90.4 per cent for the first quarter 2010 (Q1 2009: 99.7 per cent). According to the segmentation we refer to the explanation under "segment reporting" in these notes.
As of March 31, 2010 expenses for raw materials, consumables and supplies include the addition to impending loss provisions for pending purchase and sales contracts in the amount EUR 756 k (Q1 2009: additions in the amount of EUR 7,858 k; claims in the amount of EUR 11,379 k). The addition results from the adjustment and revaluation of provision that was made for the biodiesel and bioethanol segment on December 31, 2009.

Forward purchasing of raw materials was carried out in order to hedge volume and price risks. While commodity futures were carried out to hedge the price risk of these purchases, thus affecting net income, changes to the prices of these forward purchases do not affect the balance sheet.
The result from the valuation and realisation of futures which do not qualify for hedge accounting, as well as the ineffective portion of the futures which do not qualify for hedge accounting amounts to EUR -1,687 k. In addition, the other provisions from the valuation of futures decreased as of the balance sheet date by EUR 3,952 k without and effect on profit and loss after consideration of deferred taxes of EUR 1,505 k, as they qualify as cash flow hedges.
Tax expenses for the period from January 1, to March 31, 2010 amounting EUR 2,259 k (Q1 2009: EUR 1,297 k) comprises as follows:
