Principal Activity and Significant Accounting Policies Principal Activity and Significant Accounting Policies
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although South Dakota Soybean Processors, LLC (the “Company”, “LLC”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.
In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year due in part to the seasonal nature of some of the Company’s businesses. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 31, 2026.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries, High Plains Partners, LLC, HPP SD Holdings, LLC, and High Plains Processing, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Receivables and Credit Policies
Accounts receivable are considered past due when payments are not received on a timely basis in accordance with the Company’s credit terms, which are generally fifteen to thirty days from invoice date. Accounts considered uncollectible are written off. Management determines the allowance for credit losses by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering customers' financial condition, credit history, current and future economic conditions, and unusual circumstances, if any. The valuation allowance was determined to be immaterial as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Revenue
The Company accounts for all of its revenues from contracts with customers under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
The Company principally generates revenue from merchandising and transporting manufactured agricultural products used as ingredients in food, feed, energy, and industrial products. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract with a customer and excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties (e.g. - taxes). The Company follows a policy of recognizing revenue at a single point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Control transfer typically occurs when goods are shipped from our facilities or at other predetermined control transfer points (for instance, destination terms). Shipping and handling costs related to contracts with customers for the sale of goods are accounted for as a fulfillment activity and are included in the cost of revenues. Accordingly, amounts billed to customers for such costs are included as a component of revenues.
Contract liabilities relate to advance payments from customers for goods and services the Company has yet to provide. These customer prepayments totaled $8,813,099 and $14,114,940 as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Of the $14,114,940 balance as of December 31, 2025, the Company recognized $6,427,928 and $13,437,411 as revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Of the $10,524,222 customer prepayments as of December 31, 2024, the Company recognized $3,839,185 and $8,397,313 of contract liabilities as revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
The following table presents a disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, by product type:
