31% Increase in Net Income Over the Prior Fiscal Year

Strong Global Demand for Grains and Oilseeds Drive Results

Highest Revenue for the Company Since Fiscal Year 2014


CHS Inc., the nation’s leading agribusiness cooperative, today reported net income of $554.0 million for the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 2021, reflecting an increase of 31% or $131.5 million compared to fiscal year 2020.

Key financial drivers for fiscal year 2021 include:

  • Consolidated revenues of $38.4 billion for fiscal year 2021 compared to $28.4 billion for fiscal year 2020, a year-over-year increase of 35%.
  • 由于全球对谷物和油籽的强劲需求推高了大宗商品价格,以及美国与外国贸易伙伴之间全年的贸易关系得到改善,十大国际老虎机平台农业部门的收入较前一年显著提高.
  • Equity earnings from investments, particularly from CF Nitrogen and Ventura Foods, were a significant source of earnings during fiscal year 2021.
  • 随着COVID-19大流行对需求的冲击开始消退,十大国际老虎机平台精炼燃料业务的利润率提高,导致利润率增加, 由此带来的利润改善被异常高的可再生十大国际老虎机平台信贷成本和十大国际老虎机平台炼油厂加工的加拿大重质原油价格较低所抵消, resulting in lower earnings.

“十大国际老虎机平台的员工再次证明了他们的十大国际老虎机平台,为十大国际老虎机平台的所有者和全球客户提供产品和服务, driving a significant increase in earnings in fiscal year 2021 over the prior year,” said Jay Debertin, president and CEO of CHS Inc. "For the year, overall demand for grain and oilseed helped drive strength in agriculture, as well as crop nutrients and crop protection products and services. Based on fiscal year 2021 earnings, 该十大国际老虎机平台将在2022财政年度向成员合作社和个人所有者返还约5000万美元的现金赞助和1亿美元的股权赎回."

Debertin added, “十大国际老虎机平台在创新方面的投资有助于增强十大国际老虎机平台的财务实力,并在十大国际老虎机平台广阔的网络中实现效率提高.  At the same time, 十大国际老虎机平台正在增强依靠CHS的农场主和客户的经验,帮助他们满足全球对农产品日益增长的需求, opening new opportunities for growth.”
