"Our second quarter results of 2025 demonstrate strong execution and scalability of our integrated business model," said Jonathan Taylor, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Sucro. "Deliveries nearly doubled from last year, setting new records in revenue and volume.  While margins were compressed by higher-cost raw inputs purchased in late 2024, we expect margin recovery in the second half of 2025 as current market raw sugar supplies flow though our system.  At the same time, we achieved structural cost reductions in SG&A, while advancing construction on two new refineries."

Adjusted gross profit was $13.2 million (compared to $14.6 million for the corresponding period in 2024), representing an adjusted gross profit margin of 5.7%. Adjusted gross profit per metric ton delivered was $45.87(compared to $111.04 for the corresponding period in 2024).

Net income for the first quarter was $2.0 million (compared to $4.0 million for the corresponding period in 2024).
