Homeland Energy Solutions, LLC is organized as an Iowa limited liability company. The members' liability is limited as specified in Homeland Energy Solutions' operating agreement and pursuant to the Iowa Revised Uniform Limited Liability Company Act.

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company maintains its accounts primarily at one financial institution. At various times, the Company's cash balances may exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company has not experienced losses in such accounts.

Investments bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the the near term are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are measured at fair value using prices obtained from pricing services. Any interest, dividends, and unrealized or realized gains and losses on the trading securities are recorded as part of other income (expense).

At December 31, 2015, trading securities consisted of short term bond mutual funds with an approximate cost of $41,157,000 and fair value of $40,731,000, respectively. At March 31,June 30, 2016, trading securities consisted of short term bond mutual funds with an approximate cost of $41,295,000$41,476,000 and fair value of $41,273,000,$41,650,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2016 the Company recorded interest, dividend and net unrealized gains and losses from these investments of approximately $543,000.$376,000 and $919,000, respectively. During the same time periodperiods of 2015 the Company recorded interest, dividends and net unrealized gains and losses from these investments of approximately $272,000 from these investments.$7,000 and $260,000, respectively.

The Board of Directors voted to set aside up to $30 million in trading securities that will be used by the Company for the repurchase of 25,860 membership units held by Steve Retterath per the terms of an agreement with Mr. Retterath entered into on June 13, 2013 by the Company.

Credit sales are made primarily to one customer and no collateral is required. The Company carries these accounts receivable at original invoice amount with no allowance for doubtful accounts due to the historical collection rates on these accounts.

The Company has a less than 20% investment interest in Renewable Products Marketing Group, LLC (RPMG). This investment is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting under which the Company's share of net income is recognized as income in the Company's statement of operations and added to the investment account. The investment balance is included in other assets and the income recognized as other income. The investment is evaluated for indications of impairment on a regular basis. A loss would be recognized when the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value.

Revenue from the sale of the Company's products is recognized at the time title to the goods and all risks of ownership transfer to the customers.  This generally occurs upon shipment, loading of the goods or when the customer picks up the goods. Interest income is recognized as earned. Shipping costs incurred by the Company in the sale of ethanol and distiller grains are not specifically identifiable and as a result, revenue from the sale of ethanol and distiller grains is recorded based on the net selling price reported to the Company from the marketer. Rail car lease costs incurred by the Company in the sale and shipment of distiller grain products are included in the cost of goods sold.

Inventories are generally valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value.  In the valuation of inventories and purchase and sale commitments, net realizable value is defined as estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.

The Company reviews its property and equipment for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group to the carrying value of the asset group. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

The Company evaluates its contracts to determine whether the contracts are derivative instruments. Certain contracts that literally meet the definition of a derivative may be exempted from derivative accounting as normal purchases or normal sales. Normal purchases and normal sales are contracts that provide for the purchase or sale of something other than a financial instrument or derivative instrument that will be delivered in quantities expected to be used or sold over a reasonable period in the normal course of business. Contracts that meet the requirements of normal purchases or sales are documented as normal and exempted from the accounting and reporting requirements of derivative accounting.

The Company enters into short-term cash, option and futures contracts as a means of securing purchases of corn, natural gas and sales of ethanol for the plant and managing exposure to changes in commodity and energy prices. All of the Company's derivatives are designated as non-hedge derivatives for accounting purposes, with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Although the contracts are economic hedges of specified risks, they are not designated as and accounted for as hedging instruments.

As part of its trading activity, the Company uses futures and option contracts through regulated commodity exchanges to manage its risk related to pricing of inventories. To reduce that risk, the Company generally takes positions using cash and futures contracts and options.

Realized and unrealized gains and losses related to derivative contracts related to corn and natural gas are included as a component of cost of goods sold and derivative contracts related to ethanol are included as a component of revenue in the accompanying financial statements. The fair values of contracts entered through commodity exchanges are presented on the accompanying balance sheet as derivative instruments. All contracts with the same counter party are reported on a net basis.

On June 13, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Steve Retterath, the Company's largest member, to repurchase and retire all of the membership units owned by Mr. Retterath. The Company agreed to close on this repurchase on or before

August 1, 2013. The Company agreed to repurchase and retire 25,860 membership units owned by Mr. Retterath in exchange for $30 million, to be paid in two equal installments payable at closing and on July 1, 2014. The transaction failed to close by the scheduled date due to objections by Mr. Retterath. Due to all conditions of the agreement being met prior to, or on, August 1, 2013, the Company believes that it has a binding agreement with Mr. Retterath; as such the commitment to repurchase and retire the membership units is reflected in the financial statements as a current liability, due to former member, as if the transaction had closed on August 1, 2013. See Note 9 for additional information.

Basic and diluted net income per unit is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of members' units and members' unit equivalents outstanding during the period. There were no member unit equivalents outstanding during the periods presented; accordingly, the Company's basic and diluted net income per unit are the same.

Prior to, or on, August 1, 2013, the Company believes it has a binding agreement with Steve Retterath to repurchase and retire all 25,860 membership units owned by Mr. Retterath. These membership units have thus been excluded in the determination of net income per capital unit as presented in the Statement of Operations. The Company is currently involved in litigation with Mr. Retterath. There is potential that Mr. Retterath will continue as a unit holder upon conclusion of the litigation and said membership units would not be redeemed under the repurchase agreement. If the units are not redeemed, basic and diluted net income per unit, including the 25,860 units, for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2016 would be $27.35.$96.65 and $123.99, respectively. Net income per unit for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2015 would have been $28.66.$92.27 and $120.93, respectively.

The Company has certain risks and uncertainties that it will experience during volatile market conditions, which can have a severe impact on operations. The Company's revenues are derived from the sale and distribution of ethanol, distiller grains and corn oil to customers primarily located in the United States. Corn for the production process is supplied to the plant primarily from local agricultural producers and from purchases on the open market. For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, ethanol sales averaged approximately 77%78% of total revenues, while approximately 20%18% of revenues were generated from the sale of distiller grains. Corn oil sales attributed for approximately 3%4% of revenues during this time period. For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, corn costs averaged approximately 80%81% of cost of goods sold.

The Company's operating and financial performance is largely driven by the prices at which ethanol is sold and the net expense of corn. The price of ethanol is influenced by factors such as supply and demand, weather, government policies and programs, and unleaded gasoline and the petroleum markets. Excess ethanol supply in the market, in particular, puts downward pressure on the price of ethanol. The Company's largest cost of production is corn. The cost of corn is generally impacted by factors such as supply and demand, weather, and government policies and programs. The Company's risk management program is used to protect against the price volatility of these commodities.

Inventory consisted of the following as of March 31,June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

estate and plant and a security interest in all personal property located on Company property. The Company currently has a term revolving loan with Home Federal.

During the term of the Loans, the Company is subject to certain financial covenants at various times calculated monthly, quarterly or annually, including restriction of the payment of dividends and capital expenditures and maintenance of certain financial ratios including the minimum working capital and a fixed charge ratio as defined by the Master Loan Agreement. Failure to comply with the protective loan covenants or maintain the required financial ratios may cause acceleration of the outstanding principal balances on the loans and/or the imposition of fees, charges or penalties.

On June 13, 2013, we entered into an agreement with Steve Retterath, the Company's largest member, to repurchase and retire all of the units owned by Mr. Retterath. The Company agreed to close on this repurchase on or before August 1, 2013. The Company agreed to repurchase and retire 25,860 membership units owned by Mr. Retterath in exchange for $30 million, to be paid in two equal installments payable at closing and on July 1, 2014. The transaction failed to close by the scheduled date due to objections by Mr. Retterath. The Company believes that it has a binding agreement with Mr. Retterath. On August 14, 2013, the Company filed a lawsuit against Mr. Retterath in Iowa state court to enforce the terms of the repurchase agreement. The Company is asking the Iowa state court to require Mr. Retterath to complete the repurchase agreement pursuant to its terms.

Mr. Retterath contends he is not bound by the agreement.  The Company's position is as of the closing date, Mr. Retterath is no longer the equitable owner of any membership units in the Company. As a result, in 2013 the Company recorded a $30 million short-term liability related to the amount the Company agreed to pay Mr. Retterath to repurchase his membership units and correspondingly reduced members' equity on the balance sheet. If the Company is ultimately unsuccessful in its lawsuit against Mr. Retterath, the Company will reevaluate the accounting considerations made during the period of time that the lawsuit is pending.

The Company has commitments for minimum purchases of various utilities such as electricity over the next 3 years, accounted for under the normal purchase exclusion, which are anticipated to approximate the following for the twelve month periods ending March 31:June 30:

The Company leases rail cars and rail moving equipment with original terms up to 5 years. The Company is obligated to pay costs of insurance, taxes, repairs and maintenance pursuant to the terms of the leases. Rent expense incurred for the operating leases during the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2016 was approximately $415,000 and $830,000, respectively, and for the same periodperiods in 2015 was approximately $416,000.$402,000 and $818,000, respectively.

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in commodity prices. These financial exposures are monitored and managed by the Company as an integral part of its overall risk-management program. The Company's risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial and commodities markets and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of these markets may have on its operating results.

To reduce price risk caused by market fluctuations, the Company generally follows a policy of using exchange traded futures and options contracts to reduce its net position of merchandisable agricultural commodity inventories and forward cash purchase and sales contracts and uses exchange traded futures and options contracts to reduce price risk. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at market price. Changes in market price of exchange traded futures and options contracts related to corn and natural gas are recorded in costs of goods sold and changes in market prices of contracts related to the sale of ethanol, if applicable, are recorded in revenues.

  

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active markets from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below:

In relation to the repurchase agreement discussed in Note 4, on August 1, 2013 Mr. Retterath filed a lawsuit against the Company along with several directors, the Company's former CEO, CFO, COO, a former director and the Company's outside legal counsel in Florida state court. Mr. Retterath is claiming that certain actions taken by the Company violated fiduciary duties owed to him as a member or fraudulently induced him to take certain actions. Mr. Retterath is also claiming violations of state and federal securities laws and violations of Florida's deceptive and unfair trade practices statutes. On August 14, 2013, the Company filed a lawsuit in Iowa state court to enforce the repurchase agreement the Company entered into with Mr. Retterath. No distributions have been paid to Mr. Retterath since the time of the original expected closing date of August 1, 2013.

On August 9, 2013, GS Cleantech Corporation (GS Cleantech), a subsidiary of Greenshift Corporation, filed a complaint against the Company alleging that the Company's operation of a corn oil extraction process licensed by the Company infringes patent rights claimed by GS Cleantech. GS Cleantech seeks royalties, damages and potentially triple damages associated with the alleged infringement, as well as attorney's fees from the Company. The Company filed a motion for summary judgment which was granted by the Court. The Company expects GS Cleantech will appeal this decision. The Company has filed an answer and counterclaims claiming invalidity of the patents, noninfringement, and inequitable conduct. The Company is not currently able to predict the outcome of the litigation with any degree of certainty.
