UK Biofuel Plant Ensus To Reopen In Autumn -Owner CropEnergies
HAMBURG | Tue Jul 30, 2013 (Reuters) – Production should resume at British biofuel producer Ensus in the autumn, CropEnergies ( CE2G.DE ), its new German owner, said on Tuesday. CropEnergies announced the purchase of Ensus on July 19. Ensus had closed its plant in Yarm in northeast England in April due to adverse market conditions. Ensus operates one of Europe’s largest bio-refineries with an annual production capacity of about 400 million to 450 million litres of bioethanol and about 1 million tonnes of feed wheat. The plant can also produce up to 350,000 tonnes of animal feed. “The production plant in northeast England should be put into operation in autumn 2013,” CropEnergies said. Ensus started operating the plant in February 2010 but then shut it for 15 months from May 2011 until August 2012, also due to a poor market. CropEnergies has said it will invest more than 50 million pounds to improve the plant’s competitiveness. The Germany company said on Tuesday the takeover would cut its expected operating profit in the 2013/14 financial year to between 40 million and 50 million euros from its earlier expectation of 50 million to 60 million. But Ensus is expected to make a positive contribution to CropEnergies’ earnings in two years, it said. “The acquisition of Ensus in Britain is a unique opportunity to rapidly improve our position against our competitors,” CropEnergies Chief Operating Officer Marten Keil said.

Deere & Company (DE): Agriculture Leader Trading At 30% Discount
August 14, 2013 The second key to Deere’s long-term success is its leading position in developed economies including the US and Canada. In spite of recent weakness in crop prices, the US Department of Agriculture is projecting farm income to rise by 14% in 2013, totaling $128 billion. Those billions of dollars of income will be reinvested by farmers and producers, with an emphasis on upgrading older machines or simply buying new ones. Although not growing as quickly as it’s the South American region, North America is a huge market for Deere that continues to deliver steady sales and earnings growth. In addition to sales and earnings growth, Deere also carries a solid dividend yield of 2.5%. On the earnings front Deere is expected to grow earnings by 12% this year and 9% annually in the next five. That’s not exactly jaw-dropping growth, but Deere is a steady market leader in position to deliver steady and predictable returns. That is the right model and goal for a solid blue chip like Deere. But the best part of Deere right now is its valuation. Its forward P/E of 10x is a huge discount to its 10-year and peer average of 13x. The Takeaway Looking ahead, Deere will be facing some headwinds, with slow growth in Europe and rising production costs weighing on margins. But big picture, this is a great company and stocks for investors that are bullish on the long-term trend in agriculture. If shares simply traded with the same valuation as its peers, Deere would jump to $106, a 30% premium from current levels. Continue reading
