As recently as spring 2023, the stock was still holding at more than $21 a share. Then a series of worrying disclosures sent the stock into a tailspin, with shares losing more than 77% of their value on a single day in November when the company issued its disappointing third-quarter financial resultsand warned that it could struggle to remain a going concern, was hiring advisers to assess its options, taking moves to cut costs, and looking to renegotiate its contracts.<\/p>\n<p>The company also replaced its CEO, announced it would delay completion of a new pellet plant in Mississippi, and hinted the fourth-quarter financials could be even more dismal than the third-quarter numbers.<\/p>\n<p>\"These conditions and events in the aggregate raise substantial doubt regarding the company\u2019s ability to continue as a going concern,\" stated the company in the report on its third-quarter performance.<\/p>\n<p>Company officials have said a series of factors have combined to chop down the company even as it sells more wood pellets than ever to customers in the United Kingdom, continental Europe and Japan. They include collapsing prices for wood pellets, long-term contracts that lock Enviva into deals with customers at low prices, high interest rates that makes its loans more expensive to service, and operational issues at some of its plants.<\/p>\n<p>The dismal outlook prompted Fitch Ratings, one of the country's leading financial rating companies, in November to downgrade Enviva's credit rating to Rating Watch Negative (RWN), commonly known as junk grade. The financial meltdown has also prompted some shareholders to file a class-action lawsuit against the company.<\/p>\n<p>This week an Enviva spokesperson declined to comment on the company's ongoing efforts to right itself beyond what was stated during the third-quarter earnings report. She added that a date for the release of the fourth-quarter financial results had yet to be announced.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Business model under fire<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Enviva supplies European and Asian utilities with wood pellets as an alternative to burning dirty coal. But environmentalists and clean-energy advocates question the alleged sustainability value of chopping down trees in the U.S. South, processing them and then shipping the pellets thousands of miles to burn as a \"clean\" fuel source for power plants. They also criticize countries receiving the pellets as attempting to \"greenwash\" their environmental credentials by stating the pellets are a renewable energy source that's helps them reach net-zero emission goals amid pressure to respond to climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Enviva also has faced environmental justice questions over its logging practices and emissions from pellet production, since many of the company's operations are located in low-income and minority communities. The company has repeatedly said it embraces sustainable logging practices and provides jobs in areas where other economic opportunities are often limited.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The North-American wood pellet giant Enviva is walking a financial tightrope as it enters 2024.
