Item 7.01               Regulation FD Disclosure

 

American Crystal Sugar Company (the “Company”) announced to its shareholders in a letter dated June 23, 2010, that the forecasted average gross beet payment for the 2009 crop of sugarbeets is currently projected at $50.00 per ton, an increase of $4.00 per ton from the projection announced in March 2010.   The actual gross beet payment for the 2009 crop will necessarily differ from the current estimate to reflect final Company operations and selling prices for the Company’s products during fiscal year 2010.

 

This report contains forward-looking statements and information based upon assumptions by the Company’s management.  These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “expects”, “believes”, “will” or similar verbs or expressions.  If any of management’s assumptions prove incorrect or should unanticipated circumstances arise, the Company’s actual results could materially differ from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements.  The differences could be caused by a number of factors or combination of factors, including, but not limited to, those factors influencing the Company and its business which are described in “Risk Factors” section contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2009.  Readers are urged to consider these factors when evaluating any forward-looking statement.  The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements in this report to reflect future events or developments.
