– IRVING, TEXAS – Darling Ingredients Inc. (NYSE: DAR), a global leader in converting edible and inedible bio-nutrient streams into a wide range of ingredients and specialty products for customers in the pharmaceutical, food, pet food, feed, technical, fuel, bioenergy, and fertilizer industries, today announced financial results for the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter and year ended January 2, 2016.

For the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company reported net sales of $809.7 million, as compared with net sales of $1 billion for the fourth quarter of 2014. The $190.5 million decrease in net sales is attributable to sustained weakness in global commodity markets and continued FX translation impacts. Overall, global raw material volumes were stronger year over year. For fiscal 2015, the Company reported net sales of $3.40 billion, as compared with net sales of $3.96 billion for fiscal 2014.

Net income attributable to Darling for the three months ended January 2, 2016, was $84.4 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $69.9 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the three months ended January 3, 2015. Adjusted EBITDA for Darling for the three months ended January 2, 2016 was $102.7 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $108.7 million for the three months ended January 3, 2015. The $6.0 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA is attributable to lower finished product prices in the USA and Canadian rendering businesses and the impact of foreign exchange rates as a function of the strengthening U.S. dollar as compared mainly to the euro and Canadian dollar.

The Company’s ongoing capital allocation initiatives resulted in $42.4 million in debt reduction in the fourth quarter and $118.0 million for fiscal 2015. Darling continued its emphasis on organic growth in 2015 with the completion of two wet pet food plants, one bakery recycling plant and a major expansion at our Dubuque, Iowa gelatin plant. We expect these plants, plus two new rendering plants under construction scheduled for completion in the second half of 2016, to contribute meaningful revenue and earnings during 2016.
