I am pleased to let you know that the Board of Managers approved a distribution of $10 million during the November meeting. You will find enclosed a check for your portion of this distribution, based on your percentage of equity ownership.
This adds to the $5 million distribution made in July 2016, for a total of $15 million distributed in 2016. Since the company was founded in 2006, the total distributions have been $54 million dollars, a 143% return on your investment in Show Me Ethanol.
