Green Plains reported third-quarter 2026 net income of $85.4 million and adjusted EBITDA of $118 million, up from $52.6 million a year earlier. Its ethanol plants operated at 95% utilization, with record ethanol and corn oil yields, and the company increased its full-year guidance for 45Z tax-credit value.
High plant utilization and stronger ethanol economics support ongoing corn use for ethanol, though the results do not signal a major change in sector-wide demand or prices.
After 439 past neutral policy events, Corn moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.2%), and +1.1% over 20.
After 196 past neutral policy events, Soybean Oil moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (52% higher; middle half -1.6% to +2.0%), and -0.5% over 20.
