Further explanation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as used here and throughout this press release, appears below.
Fulghum Fibres
Revenues were $22.1 million for the third quarter of 2017, compared to $26.3 million for the same period last year. Revenues from operations in the United States were $10.4 million for the third quarter of 2017, as compared to $13.2 million in the prior year period. Revenues from operations in South America were $11.7 million for the third quarter of 2017, as compared to $13.1 million in the prior year period. The decrease in revenues from the United States operations is primarily due to the sale of two mills in May 2017 and lower processing volumes at other mills. The decrease in South America revenues was primarily due to fewer chip sales to Asia in 2017 as compared to 2016. Fewer vessels shipped during the third quarter of 2017 than during the third quarter of 2016; however, we expect export chip sales to pick up throughout the remainder of 2017 but to be lower than in 2016. Lower biomass product sales also contributed to the decrease in South America revenues.
For the third quarter of 2017, our mills in the United States processed 2.2 million green metric tons, or GMT, of logs into wood chips and residual fuels; our mills in South America processed 0.7 million GMT of logs. For the third quarter of 2016, our mills in the United States processed 2.8 million GMT of logs into wood chips and residual fuels; our mills in South America processed 0.8 million GMT of logs.
Gross profit was $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2017, compared to $3.9 million for the same period last year. Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2017 was 12%, compared to 15% for the same period in the prior year. The decreases in gross profit and gross margin were due primarily to lower revenues as a result of a decrease in biomass product sales in South America, a decrease in chip sales to Asia, the sale of two U.S. mills in May 2017, lower processing volumes at other U.S. mills, and an increase in repairs and maintenance expenses for the mills in South America.
Fulghum incurred impairments totaling $22.2 million during the third quarter of 2017, consisting of a $5.1 million goodwill impairment and $17.1 million of asset impairments.
Operating loss, which includes impairments, was $(21.0) million for the third quarter of 2017, compared to operating income of $2.3 million for the same period last year.
Net loss, which includes impairments, for the third quarter of 2017 was $(20.5) million. This compares to net income of $1.4 million for the same period in 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2017 was $2.7 million. This compares to Adjusted EBITDA of $4.6 million for the same period in 2016.
In August 2017, Fulghum was notified by a customer of the exercise of its purchase option for six of Fulghum’s chip mills. The sales for four mills were consummated in September 2017 and the sales for the remaining two mills closed in October 2017. At each closing, Fulghum simultaneously entered into new operating agreements to continue to provide wood processing services for the mills on terms similar to operating agreements at other Fulghum mills. In connection with the sale of these mills, the Company received cash payments of $4.0 million in September 2017 and $1.3 million in October 2017. $4.0 million of the net proceeds was paid to GSO Capital Partners LP (GSO) as a prepayment on the debt in November 2017, with the remaining net proceeds to be offered to GSO as well.
New England Wood Pellet
Revenues were $10.4 million for the third quarter of 2017 on deliveries of approximately 55,000 tons of wood pellets. Revenues were $9.4 million for the third quarter of 2016 on deliveries of approximately 49,000 tons of wood pellets. Demand continued to be negatively impacted by relatively warm weather, continuing depressed prices for competing heating fuels such as heating oil and propane, and changes in consumer buying patterns where the consumer now makes purchases on an as-needed basis. Sales prices for the third quarter of 2017 were also lower than in the prior year period.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2017 was $0.6 million, compared to $1.5 million for the same period in the prior year. Gross profit margin was 5% for the third quarter of 2017, compared to 16% for the same period in the prior year. Gross profit and gross profit margin were lower because of lower sales prices, higher depreciation expense and charges relating to scaling back production at the facilities during the third quarter of 2017.
NEWP incurred a goodwill impairment of $8.6 million in the third quarter of 2017.
Operating loss, which includes goodwill impairment, was $(8.7) million for the third quarter of 2017, compared to operating income of $0.7 million for the same period last year.
Net loss, which includes goodwill impairment, for the third quarter of 2017 was $(8.8) million. This compares to net income of $0.6 million for the same period in 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2017 was $1.4 million. This compares to Adjusted EBITDA of $1.7 million for the same period last year.
Wood Pellets: Industrial
Revenues were $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2017, earned by delivering approximately 13,000 metric tons of wood pellets. Revenues were $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2016, earned by delivering approximately 16,000 metric tons of wood pellets.
Gross loss for the third quarter of 2017 was $(1.0) million, compared to $(6.1) million for the same period in the prior year. Gross loss margin was (40)% for the third quarter of 2017, compared to (214)% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in gross loss and gross loss margin was primarily due to the idling of the Wawa Facility, lower operating rates at the Atikokan Facility, and a reduction in inventory write-down in 2017.
Operating loss was $(4.8) million for the third quarter of 2017, compared to $(11.1) million for the same period last year.
Net loss for the third quarter of 2017 was $(5.3) million. This compares to net loss of $(11.5) million for the same period in 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA loss for the third quarter of 2017 was $(4.8) million. This compares to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(9.3) million for the same period last year.
In October 2017, Drax, the Wawa Company and Rentech entered into a deed of termination whereby the Drax contract and the Rentech guarantee of the Wawa Company’s obligations to Drax were terminated with no further continuing obligation amongst the parties.
In November 2017, the Wawa Company was notified by Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation (NOHFC) that it did not fulfill its covenants under a conditional grant provided by NOHFC to the Wawa Company. The breach was a failure by the Wawa Company to have the Wawa Facility operating for the duration required under the grant agreement. Therefore, NOHFC issued a notice of default and demand of repayment of the grant in an amount of approximately $2.5 million. Any default by the Wawa Company under the grant to the Wawa Facility would trigger a cross default under NOHFC’s grant to the Atikokan Company, which has separately complied with the requirements under its grant agreement. If the Atikokan Company receives a notice of default and demand of payment, the payment under its grant would be in the amount of $0.8 million. As of September 30, 2017, the Company has recorded a liability relating to NOHFC for $3.3 million.
Corporate and Unallocated Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2017, compared to $4.4 million for the same period last year. The decrease was a result of the Company’s cost saving efforts, including a decrease in rent expense of $0.9 million, personnel costs of $0.8 million, and for each of non-cash equity-based compensation expense and software costs $0.2 million, which was partially offset by the absence of allocating a portion of corporate overhead to the Wood Pellets: Industrial segment. Non-cash equity-based compensation expense was $0.2 million for the third quarter of 2017, compared to $0.4 million for the same period in the prior year. Corporate allocations to the Wood Pellets: Industrial segment totaled $1.0 million for the third quarter of 2016.

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations plus net interest expense and other financing costs, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization and unusual items, like impairment and debt extinguishment charges, fair value adjustments to earn-out consideration and equity investment in CVR. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as investors and commercial banks, to assess:
- the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis; and
- our operating performance and return on invested capital compared to those of other public companies, without regard to financing methods and capital structure.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA may have material limitations as a performance measure because it excludes items that are necessary elements of our costs and operations. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation, since each company may define these terms differently.
The table below reconciles Rentech’s consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (excluding equity in loss of CVR and discontinued operations) to loss from continuing operations for the third quarters and first nine months of 2017 and 2016.
