DIAMOND GREEN DIESEL HOLDINGS LLC AND SUBSIDIARY

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2018

Independent Auditors’ Report

The Board of Managers

Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC and subsidiary:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC and its subsidiary, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

DIAMOND GREEN DIESEL HOLDINGS LLC AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC (DGD Holdings) was formed on January 21, 2011 as a joint venture between Diamond Alternative Energy, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Valero Energy Corporation (Valero), and Darling Green Energy LLC, a subsidiary of Darling Ingredients Inc. (Darling). Diamond Alternative Energy, LLC and Darling Green Energy LLC are collectively referred to herein as the “Members.”

DGD Holdings, through its wholly owned subsidiary Diamond Green Diesel LLC (DGD), operates a biomass-based diesel unit that processes animal fats, used cooking oils, and other vegetable oils into renewable green diesel (the Plant). The Plant is located next to Valero’s St. Charles Refinery in Norco, Louisiana. DGD Holdings and DGD are collectively referred to herein as the “Company.”

The Company completed construction of the Plant and began operations in June 2013. During 2018, the Plant’s capacity was expanded from 10,000 barrels per day to 18,000 barrels per day.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Management has evaluated subsequent events that occurred after December 31, 2018 through February 8, 2019, the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. Any material subsequent events that occurred during this time have been properly recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances could result in revised estimates.

Cash

Cash consists of demand deposits with a financial institution.

Receivables

Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount. The Company has not had any uncollectible receivables, and therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts was recorded as of December 31, 2018 and 2017.

DIAMOND GREEN DIESEL HOLDINGS LLC AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. The cost of feedstocks purchased for processing and refined products (primarily renewable green diesel) are determined under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method using the dollar-value LIFO method. The cost of supplies are determined principally under the weighted-average cost method.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses are costs incurred for which the services or goods will be received in a future period. The prepaid expenses are recorded as an asset when paid and recognized as an expense in the period the services or goods are utilized.

Property, Plant and Equipment

The cost of property, plant and equipment purchased or constructed, including betterments, is capitalized. However, the cost of repairs to and normal maintenance of property assets is expensed as incurred. Betterments are those which extend the useful life, increase the capacity or improve the operating efficiency of the asset, or improve the safety of our operations. The cost includes interest and certain overhead costs allocable to the construction activities. See Note 5 for additional discussion.

Depreciation of processing units is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of these assets using the composite method of depreciation. Under the composite method of depreciation, the historical cost of a minor property asset (net of salvage value) that is retired or replaced is charged to accumulated depreciation and no gain or loss is recognized in income. However, a gain or loss is recognized in income for a major property asset that is retired, replaced, sold, or for an abnormal disposition of a property asset (primarily involuntary conversions). Gains and losses are reflected in depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, unless such amounts are reported separately due to materiality.

Depreciation of the administrative building and computer hardware is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the component method of depreciation. Precious metals, which are used as a catalyst in the units to process feedstock into renewable green diesel, are not depreciated, but the cost of precious metals not recovered from the reclamation process are charged to operating expenses.

Deferred Charges and Other Assets

“Deferred charges and other assets, net” include the following:

• turnaround costs, which are incurred in connection with planned major maintenance activities and which are deferred when incurred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of time estimated to lapse until the next turnaround occurs;

• fixed-bed catalyst costs, representing the cost of catalyst that is changed out at periodic intervals when the quality of the catalyst has deteriorated beyond its prescribed function, which are deferred when incurred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful live of the specific catalyst;

• a license acquired in 2015 that provides for an increase in the feedstock that can be processed at the Plant per calendar year; and

• utility deposits.

DIAMOND GREEN DIESEL HOLDINGS LLC AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Impairment of Assets

Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. A long-lived asset is not recoverable if its carrying amount exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. If a long-lived asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value, with fair value determined based on discounted estimated net cash flows or other appropriate methods.

Asset Retirement Obligation

The Company records a liability, which is referred to as an asset retirement obligation, at fair value for the estimated cost to retire a tangible long-lived asset at the time that the Company incurs that liability, which is generally when the asset is purchased, constructed or leased. The Company records the liability when there is a legal obligation to incur costs to retire the asset and when a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the liability can be made.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues are generated from contracts with customers for the sale of products. Revenues are recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation to transfer products to customers, which typically occurs at a point in time upon shipment of the products, and for an amount that reflects the transaction price that is allocated to the performance obligation.

The customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the benefits from, the products at the point of shipment. As a result, the Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment or delivery because there is a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.

Contracts with customers state the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price for goods sold. Payment is typically due in full within three days of invoicing. In the normal course of business, the Company generally does not accept product returns.

The transaction price is the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for its products. The transaction price for all of the contracts is based on commodity market pricing (i.e., variable consideration). As such, this market pricing may be constrained (i.e., not estimable) at the inception of the contract, but will be recognized based on the applicable market pricing, which will be known upon transfer of the goods to the customer.

The Company has elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected from a customer (e.g., sales tax and use tax).

Blenders Tax Credit

Biodiesel blenders registered with the Internal Revenue Service were eligible for a tax incentive in the amount of $1.00 per gallon of renewable diesel blended with petroleum diesel to produce a mixture containing at least 0.1 percent diesel fuel. Only blenders that produced and sold or used the qualified biodiesel mixture as a fuel in their trade or business were eligible for the tax credit. The tax credit related to 2017 was approved during 2018. Therefore, as a blender, the Company recognized credits of $160,393,656 during 2018 related

8

DIAMOND GREEN DIESEL HOLDINGS LLC AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

to volumes sold during 2017. The biodiesel blenders tax credit was not approved by Congress beyond December 31, 2017. Therefore, the Company did not recognize this tax benefit during 2018.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses primarily consist of costs charged to the Company by Valero in accordance with the Operations Agreement for day-to-day operations of the Plant, as further described in Note 10. In addition, operating expenses include maintenance expenses, chemicals, waste disposal, professional fees, insurance, property tax and other outside services.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of fees for administrative services provided by Valero, as further described in Note 10.

Income Taxes

The Company is a limited liability corporation and is not a taxpaying entity for federal and state income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is made in these consolidated financial statements. Income or loss from the Company is taxable to the Members in their individual federal tax returns.

Derivatives and Hedging

All derivative instruments are recorded in the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities measured at their fair values. The gain or loss on the derivative instruments, if any, is recognized in income as incurred. The cash flow effects of the derivative instruments are reflected in operating activities in the statements of cash flows. See Note 13 for additional discussion.

Concentration Risk

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company sold a majority of its renewable diesel to four major customers, including Valero, which accounted for 20 percent of the sales of renewable diesel. The other three third-party customers accounted for 35 percent, 14 percent, and 13 percent of the sales of renewable diesel. The Company sold 31 percentof its renewable diesel to Valero and 25 percent, 19 percent, and 10 percent to three third-party customers for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The Company purchased 36 percent and 39 percent of its raw materials from Darling for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company purchased 12 percent, 11 percent, 11 percent, and 10 percent from four third-party suppliers for the year ended December 31, 2018, and 17 percent, 12 percent, and 10 percent from three third-party suppliers for the year ended December 31, 2017.

See Note 10 for additional discussion of the Company’s contracts with Valero and Darling.

DIAMOND GREEN DIESEL HOLDINGS LLC AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

7. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

The Company recorded an asset retirement obligation for the estimated cost to remove all tangible long-lived assets from the leased premises as required by the Company’s lease agreement with Valero, which requires it to remove all improvements upon termination of the lease unless otherwise instructed by Valero. The obligation is estimated considering the likelihood, which the Company believes is low, that the Company will be required by Valero to perform under the asset retirement obligation. This obligation was recorded upon completion of the Plant in June 2013. An additional amount was recorded in 2018 upon completing the expansion project, which increased the Plant’s capacity to 18,000 barrels per day.

Changes in the asset retirement obligation were as follows:

	December 31,
	2018		2017
Balance as of beginning of year	$	218,836	$	207,821
Additions to accrual	60,785		—
Accretion expense	11,598		11,015
Balance as of end of year	$	291,219	$	218,836

The Company does not expect any short-term spending, and as a result, there is no current liability reported for asset retirement obligations as of December 31, 2018 and 2017. Accretion expense is reflected in depreciation, amortization and accretion expense.

There are no assets that are legally restricted for purposes of settling the Company’s asset retirement obligations.

8. MEMBERS’ CONTRIBUTIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Pursuant to the Diamond Green Diesel Holdings LLC Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, contributions were made prior to the Plant commencing operations based on the percentage of units held by each Member. Each Member holds 1,116,886 units, and therefore, owns a 50 percent ownership interest in DGD Holdings. Each Member receives one vote per unit. Net income or loss of the Company for a fiscal year is allocated between the Members based on the proportionate share of the Members’ ownership interests.

No contributions were made by the Members during the years ended December 31, 2018 or 2017. The Company distributed $130,000,000 and $50,000,000 to the Members during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

9. COMMITMENTS

The Company leases land from Valero in Norco, Louisiana on which the Plant is built, which is adjacent to Valero’s St. Charles refinery. See Note 10 for further discussion.

In addition, the Company leases various equipment and has an agreement with the Kansas City Southern Railway Company to lease land next to the railroad on which the Company’s scale track is located. As of December 31, 2018, future minimum rentals for these leases were as follows:

Year Ending December 31:
2019	$	342,360
2020	342,962
2021	303,442
2022	290,701
2023	218,840
Thereafter	295,200
Total minimum rental payments	$	1,793,505

Rental expense for the leases was $574,955 and $508,270 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and is reflected in operating expenses.

10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Overview

The Company does not have any employees. It has entered into agreements with its Members, primarily Valero, to provide day-to-day operations, management and administrative functions. The Company also obtained debt financing from Valero to fund the majority of the initial construction costs of the Plant. These related-party transactions cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s length basis as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Following is a description of various agreements between the Company and its Members.

Debt Agreement

The Company had a loan facility with Valero, which allowed the Company to borrow up to an amount equal to 60 percent of the estimated construction costs of the Plant. The Company borrowed the maximum under the loan facility of $221,298,189. Interest on the loan facility accrued at a rate of 8 percent per annum. During the construction period, all unpaid interest was added to the principal balance outstanding under the loan installments, with the first payment paid on October 1, 2013. Principal payments were made in equal consecutive quarterly installments, with the first principal payment paid on July 1, 2014.

The Company was required to make prepayments upon certain qualifying events. However, during 2017, the Company’s board of managers approved the expansion of the Plant’s feed capacity to 18,000 barrels per day. Related to the approval of this expansion, Valero agreed to temporarily suspend the mandatory prepayments.

11. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Disaggregation of Revenue

Revenue is presented in the table below disaggregated by product because this is the level of disaggregation that management has determined to be beneficial to users of the financial statements.

Receivables from Contracts with Customers

The Company’s receivables from contracts with customers are included in receivables and receivables - due from related party and totaled $55,393,975 and $33,536,682 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The majority of the Company’s contracts with customers are term contracts. The transaction price for these term contracts consists of variable consideration (i.e., a commodity price). The variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good that forms part of a single performance obligation and is constrained as the consideration is highly susceptible to commodity market volatility that is outside the Company’s influence; therefore, the variable consideration is not included in the remaining performance obligation.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

General

U.S. GAAP requires that certain assets and liabilities be measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis in the Company’s balance sheets, which are presented below under “Recurring Fair Value Measurements.” Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, such as derivative financial instruments, are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period.

U.S. GAAP also requires the disclosure of the fair values of financial instruments when an option to elect fair value accounting has been provided, but such election has not been made. A debt obligation is an example of such a financial instrument. The disclosure of the fair values of financial instruments not recognized at fair value in the balance sheet is presented below under “Other Financial Instruments.”

U.S. GAAP provides a framework for measuring fair value and establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques based on the degree to which objective prices in external active markets are available to measure fair value. Following is a description of each of the levels of the fair value hierarchy.

• Level 1 - Observable inputs, such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs reflect our own assumptions about what market participants would use to price the asset or liability. The inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances, which might include occasional market quotes or sales of similar instruments or the Company's own financial data such as internally developed pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the fair value determination requires significant judgment.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities recognized at their fair values in the balance sheets categorized according to the fair value hierarchy of the inputs utilized by the Company to determine the fair values as of December 31, 2018 and 2017.

The Company has elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple similar derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty, including any related cash collateral assets or obligations as shown below; however, fair value amounts by hierarchy level are presented in the following tables on a gross basis. The Company does not have any derivative contracts that are subject to master netting arrangements that are reflected gross on the balance sheet.

A description of the Company’s assets and liabilities recognized at fair value along with the valuation method and inputs used to develop the fair value measurements is as follows:

• Commodity derivative contracts consist primarily of exchange-traded futures, which are used to reduce the impact of price volatility on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows as discussed in Note 13. These contracts are measured at fair value using the market approach. Exchange-traded futures are valued based on quoted prices from the commodity exchange and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

13. PRICE RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to market risks related to the volatility in the price of commodities and enters into derivative instruments to manage some of these risks. This includes derivative instruments related to the various commodities the Company purchases as described below under “Risk Management Activities,” These derivative instruments are recorded as either assets or liabilities measured at their fair values (see Note 12), as summarized below under “Fair Values of Derivative Instruments,” with changes in fair value recognized currently in income. The effect of these derivatives instruments on our income is summarized below under “Effect of Derivative Instruments on Income.”

Risk Management Activities

Commodity Price Risk

The Company is exposed to market risks related to the volatility in the price of feedstocks and products they produce. To reduce the impact of price volatility on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows, the Company uses commodity derivative instruments, such as futures and options. The Company’s positions in commodity derivative instruments are monitored and managed on a daily basis by the risk control group to ensure compliance with the Company’s stated risk management policy.

The Company primarily uses commodity derivative instruments as economic hedges, which are not designated as hedging instruments. The Company’s objectives for holding economic hedges are to (i) manage price volatility in certain feedstock and product inventories and fixed-price purchase contracts, and (ii) lock in the price of forecasted feedstock and product at existing market prices that the Company deems favorable.

Market Risk

The Company’s price risk management activities involve the receipt or payment of fixed price commitments into the future. These transactions give rise to market risk, which is the risk that future changes in market conditions may make an instrument less valuable. The Company closely monitors and manages its exposure to market risk on a daily basis in accordance with its policies. Market risks are monitored by the Company’s risk control group to ensure compliance with the stated risk management policy. The Company does not require any collateral or other security to support derivative instruments into which the Company enters. The Company also does not have any derivative instruments that require it to maintain a minimum investment-grade credit rating.
