Gevo, Inc. Rankings

Russell 2000 (June 2011)

Company Description

Putting sugar in a gas tank is generally not a good idea, but Gevo has figured out a way to make it beneficial. A renewable chemical and biofuels company, Gevo produces isobutanol, a multi-purpose chemical derived from glucose and other cellulosic biomass extracted from plant matter. Its isobutanol can be used as a blendstock (additive used during the refining process) for gasoline and jet fuel production and as a chemical used in the production of plastics, fibers, and rubber. Gevo does not yet produce isobutanol on a commercial scale, but it is in the process of building its customer and partnership base in preparation of commencing production. Formed in 2005, the company went public in early 2011.

      Competitive Landscape Brief

      Demand depends on the overall strength of the US economy, because most industrial chemicals are used in the manufacture of more-complicated products like fibers, plastics, paints, and paper. The profitability of individual companies is closely linked to efficient operations, because most products are commodities. Big producers have large economies of scale in production, which is why some chemicals are made by just a handful of companies. Small companies can compete effectively by making specialized or highly-purified products. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee is more than $1 million. International trade in industrial chemicals is substantial. Imports come to the US primarily from Canada, China, and Germany. US exports go mainly to Mexico, Canada, Belgium, China, and Japan.
