Pending final investment decisions, the joint ventures have chosen Decatur, Illinois, U.S., as the location of their intended production facilities.\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20220815005688\/en\/1544693\/5\/NAHQ_Decatur_IL_071220_DSC_0168-1_compressed.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20220815005688\/en\/1544693\/21\/NAHQ_Decatur_IL_071220_DSC_0168-1_compressed.jpg\"><\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20220815005688\/en\/775611\/5\/ADM_Logo_Primary.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20220815005688\/en\/775611\/21\/ADM_Logo_Primary.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\nThe first joint venture, GreenWise Lactic, would produce up to 150,000 tons of high-purity corn-based lactic acid annually. ADM would be the majority owner of GreenWise, and would contribute fermentation capacity from its Decatur bioproducts facility to the venture. The second joint venture, LG Chem Illinois Biochem, would be majority-owned by LG Chem. It would build upon LG Chem\u2019s expertise in bioplastics to build a facility that will use product from GreenWise Lactic to produce approximately 75,000 tons of polylactic acid (PLA) per year.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nADM CEO Juan R. Luciano stated, \u201cSustainability is one of the enduring global trends that is powering ADM\u2019s strategy and growth. Our BioSolutions platform is helping us meet that demand by redeploying Carbohydrate Solutions production capacity to fast-growing, higher-margin segments \u2013 including pharmaceuticals and personal care, textiles and paper products. BioSolutions is already growing rapidly, with $136 million in year-over-year revenue growth in the first half of 2022, and with these two new joint ventures, we\u2019re planning to take the next growth step, greatly expanding our ability to meet growing demand for plant-based solutions. We\u2019re pleased to expand our collaboration with LG Chem, and we\u2019re excited at the opportunity to bring this new intended production and all of its economic benefits to Decatur, our North American headquarters.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nLG Chem Chief Executive Officer Hak Cheol Shin commented, \u201cThe establishment of this joint venture is a sustainable growth strategy that can directly contribute in solving environmental issues such as climate change and waste plastics,\u201d and added, \u201cLG Chem is the first Korean company to build a PLA plant with integrated production capacities ranging from raw materials to the final product. With the establishment of this JV, LG Chem will not only procure production capacities for highly pure lactic acid needed for commercial-scale PLA production, but will also be able to apply biomaterials in the development of various high-value-added products. Based on eco-friendly materials, which is an axis for new growth engines, we will respond to the rapidly changing market and customers, while becoming a market leader.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nGlobal demand for lactic acid \u2013 which is used broadly in food, feed and cosmetics in addition to industrials like bioplastics \u2013 was valued at approximately USD 2.9 billion in 2021, with an expected annual growth rate of 8%. Global demand for bioplastics and biopolymers is projected to grow from USD 10.7 billion in 2021 to USD 29.7 billion by 2026, representing annual growth of 22.7%.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe joint ventures, which are subject to required regulatory approvals, hope to make final investment decisions around the Decatur projects in 2023. Pending final investment decisions and approvals, construction would be targeted to begin in 2023, and production in late 2025 or early 2026, with the two joint ventures supporting more than 125 jobs in the Decatur region.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nBoth ventures are participating in the State of Illinois\u2019 Economic Development for a Growing Economy (EDGE) program, which provides incentives to job creators who plan to make investments in Illinois.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI am thrilled that LG Chem and ADM have chosen Decatur as home for their joint ventures,\u201d said Illinois Governor JB Pritzker. \u201cOur state\u2019s talented workforce coupled with our mission of sustainability make Illinois the best place for these lactic and polylactic acid production facilities. To LG Chem and ADM: thank you for your commitment to our state. It is innovative, plant-based solutions like these that will help us tackle the climate crisis head on.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;When I led a congressional delegation to South Korea earlier this year, I met with the CEO of LG Chem, Hak Cheol Shin, and shared how Illinois is uniquely positioned for greater investment as a growing hub for innovation, manufacturing and technology. I&#8217;m proud my advocacy helped bring this important investment to Illinois,&#8221; said U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth. \u201cLG Chem recognizes what I\u2019ve long known: Illinois is a great place to do business. Building on ADM&#8217;s long history in Illinois, I\u2019m glad the leaders at ADM and LG Chem made this decision to help our state lead the transition to a clean energy economy and create good-paying jobs right here so we can help build a better, more sustainable future for communities throughout Illinois. I will continue to spread the message across the country and around the world that entrepreneurs and innovative companies should call Illinois home.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cDemand for plant-based products is on the rise and it\u2019s no surprise Illinois is attractive to companies looking to expand in this industry,\u201d U.S. Senator Dick Durbin said. \u201cAs the federal government seeks opportunities to invest in greener buildings, it will look to states like Illinois that are leaders in the production of eco-products. Today\u2019s news is a positive step and I appreciate the efforts of state and local leaders to bring even more jobs to Illinois.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Decatur has a rich heritage in manufacturing products that serve as industry game-changers, and the two ADM and LG Chem ventures announced today are no exception,&#8221; said Nicole Bateman, president of the Economic Development Corporation of Decatur &#8211; Macon County. &#8220;Their collective approach to plant-based innovations are a welcomed addition to the global industry leaders who call Decatur home. ADM and LG Chem will find a great partner in the EDC and City of Decatur to support their infrastructure and operational needs to bring this project to life.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>Forward-Looking Statements<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSome of the above statements constitute forward-looking statements.
