Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On February 13, 2024, DDB Holdings, Inc. (the “DDB”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Benson Hill, Inc. (the “Company”) (and for limited purposes only, Benson Hill Holdings, Inc., a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “MIPA”) with White River Creston, LLC (the “Purchaser”). Pursuant to the MIPA, on February 13, 2024, DDB sold all of its interests in its wholly-owned subsidiary, Benson Hill Ingredients, LLC (“BHI”), which owns and operates a soybean processing facility in Creston, Iowa, to the Purchaser for approximately $52,500,000, plus a working capital adjustment estimated to be approximately $19,500,000, subject to certain adjustments and holdbacks as set forth in the MIPA (the “Creston Sale”).

On October 31, 2023, BHI entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with White River Soy Processing, LLC (“White River”), pursuant to which, among other things, on October 31, 2023, BHI sold to White River a soybean processing facility located in Seymour, Indiana, together with certain related assets, for approximately $36,000,000 of total gross proceeds, subject to certain adjustments, including an adjustment for inventory and other working capital (the “Seymour Sale”).

The Creston Sale and the Seymour Sale (collectively, the “Transactions”) were separately marketed, negotiated, executed, and closed, and neither of the Transactions was conditioned upon the other. The Transactions were executed to leverage the Company’s core competencies as a technology-enabled seed innovation company as the Company transitions from a vertically integrated business model to an asset-light business model with an expanded focus on animal feed markets. Exiting the soybean processing business is intended to strengthen the Company’s balance sheet as the Company seeks to continue to commercialize its core business and intellectual property assets through partnerships and licensing arrangements to scale the Company’s product innovations. Following the Creston Sale, the Company exited the ownership and operation of soybean processing assets and, therefore, the Transactions collectively met the criteria for transactions required to be accounted for as discontinued operations.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the pro forma adjustments discussed below, are intended to illustrate the effects of the Transactions, as discontinued operations, on the historical financial statements of the Company, as if the Transactions had been completed at an earlier time as indicated therein, and such unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s historical condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, as presented in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023, filed with the SEC on November 9, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) and the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, as presented in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023, March 28, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively (collectively , the “Form 10-Ks”).

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 assumes the Transactions had occurred on September 30, 2023. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred as of January 1, 2020.

In addition, Regulation S-X permits registrants to reflect adjustments that depict synergies and dis-synergies of the acquisitions and dispositions for which pro forma effect is being given in the Company’s disclosures as management adjustments. The Company has determined not to disclose such adjustments because it does not believe that presentation of such adjustments would enhance an understanding of the pro forma effects of the Transactions.

The transaction accounting adjustments to reflect the effect of the Transactions in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements include:

•the sale of the 100% membership interest of BHI pursuant to the MIPA, including BHI’s ownership and operation of the soybean processing facility in Creston, Iowa;

•the sale of BHI’s soybean processing facility in Seymour, Indiana; together with certain related assets and liabilities, pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement;

•the cash repayment of the Loan Agreement as defined within Item 1.02 of the Form 8-K to which this exhibit is attached; and

•the receipt of cash proceeds that were payable on the closing dates of each of the Transactions.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statement information is presented for informational purposes only and is based upon estimates by the Company’s management, which are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable as of the date of this filing. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are not intended to be indicative of the actual financial position or results of operations that would have been achieved had either of the Transactions been consummated as of the periods indicated, nor does it purport to indicate results which may be attained in the future. Actual amounts could differ materially from these estimates.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto.
