Properties, in its own words

Our corporate headquarters are located in Chicago, Illinois. The lease for this location expires in 2043. In addition to our corporate headquarters, we operate two research and development facilities in Vernon Hills, IL, one of which we own and the other of which we lease with a term expiring in 2027. We operate clay manufacturing and non-clay production facilities on the properties listed in “Mining Properties and Operations” below. We have no mortgages on any of the real property we own. We consider our properties to generally be in good condition, well maintained and suitable and adequate to carry on our business. As used in this Form 10-K, the terms “mineral resource,” “mineral reserve,” “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” are defined and used in accordance with Item 1300 of Regulation S-K.

With the exception of our research and development center in Illinois, all of the properties that we own contain clay mineral reserves or are used in the processing of our clay. We mine sorbent minerals primarily consisting of calcium bentonite, attapulgite and diatomaceous shale. We use certified professional geologists and mineral specialists who prepared the estimated reserves of these minerals in the table above. See also Item 1 “Business” above for further information about our reserves. We, or our wholly owned subsidiaries, are the sole operators of our mines. We have a total of 69 mining properties in all stages of operation (exploration, development and production), with 3 mining properties in California, 38 mining properties in Georgia, 3 mining properties in Illinois, 23 mining properties in Mississippi, 1 mining property in Nevada, and 1 mining property in Tennessee. Parcels of such land are also sites of manufacturing facilities operated by us. In addition, we own approximately one acre of land in Laval, Quebec, Canada, which is the site of the processing, packaging and distribution facility for our Canadian subsidiary. While we have reserves at our mining properties in Nevada and Tennessee, we are not actively mining these properties.

Our mining operations are conducted on both owned and leased land. The Georgia, Illinois and Mississippi mining leases generally require that we pay a minimum monthly rent to continue the lease term. The rental payments are typically applied against a stated royalty related to the number of unprocessed, or in some cases processed, tons of minerals extracted from the leased property. Many of our mining leases have no stated expiration dates. Some of our leases, however, do have expiration dates ranging from 2026 to 2122. We would not experience a material adverse effect from the expiration or termination of any of these leases. We have a variety of access arrangements, some of which are styled as leases, for manufacturing at facilities that are not contiguous with the related mines. We would not experience a material adverse effect from the expiration or termination of any of these arrangements.

Certain of our land holdings in California are represented by unpatented mining claims we lease from the Bureau of Land Management. These leases generally give us the contractual right to conduct mining or processing activities on the land covered by the claims. The validity of title to unpatented claims, however, is dependent upon numerous factual matters. We believe the unpatented claims we lease are in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local mining laws, rules and regulations. Future amendments to existing federal mining laws, however, could have a prospective effect on mining operations on federal lands and include, among other changes, the imposition of royalty fees on the mining of unpatented claims, the elimination or restructuring of the patent system and an increase in fees for the maintenance of unpatented claims. To the extent that future proposals may result in the imposition of royalty fees on unpatented lands, the mining of our unpatented claims may become economically unfavorable. We cannot predict the form that any such amendments might take or whether or when such amendments might be adopted. In addition, the construction and operation of processing facilities on these sites would require the approval of federal, state and local regulatory authorities. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” above for a discussion of other risks to our business related to our mining properties.

Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Oil-Dri Corp of America names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Oct 8, 2026: 36 risks under these headings, as written.6

  • We seek to identify, manage and mitigate risks to our business, but risk and uncertainty cannot be eliminated or necessarily predicted. You should consider the following factors carefully, in addition to other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, before making an investment decision with respect to our securities. The risks described below are not the only risks we face. Our business operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial in our operations.
  • Risks Related to Our Business
  • Our future growth and financial performance are meaningfully impacted by successful new product introductions.
  • We face intense competition in our markets.
  • Our periodic results may be volatile.
  • Uncertainties in economic conditions and their impact on consumer spending patterns could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
  • Acquisitions involve a number of risks, any of which could cause us not to realize the anticipated benefits.
  • We depend on a limited number of customers for a large portion of our net sales.
  • Price or trade concessions, or the failure to make them to retain customers, could adversely affect our sales and profitability.
  • Increases in energy, commodity, transportation, labor and other costs would increase our operating costs, and we may be unable to pass all these increases on to our customers in the form of higher prices and surcharges.
  • Our business could be negatively affected by supply, labor, logistics and other disruptions or the costs incurred to avoid these disruptions.
  • Our production facilities are subject to operating risks and capacity limitations that may adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.
The other 25 risks
  • We depend on our mining operations, and quality of the clay mined, for a majority of our supply of sorbent minerals.
  • We may not be successful in acquiring adequate additional reserves in the future.
  • Failure to effectively utilize or successfully assert intellectual property rights, and the loss or expiration of such rights, could materially adversely affect our competitiveness. Infringement of third-party intellectual property rights could result in costly litigation and/or the modification or discontinuance of our products.
  • The loss of any key member of our senior management team and other key personnel may impede the implementation of our business plans in a timely manner.
  • Risks Related to Legal and Regulatory Compliance
  • Environmental, health and safety matters create potential compliance and other liability risks.
  • Government laws and regulation impose significant costs on us, and future legal or regulatory changes (or related customer responses to such changes) could increase those costs or limit our ability to produce and sell our products.
  • We face risks to our domestic and international sales and business operations due to political, regulatory, economic and other conditions.
  • We may incur adverse safety events or product liability claims that may be costly, create adverse publicity and may result in regulatory action.
  • Goodwill, long-lived, and other intangible assets recorded as a result of our acquisitions could become impaired.
  • We may be subjected to increased taxes or fluctuating tax rates, which could adversely affect our results of operations and/or cash flows.
  • Risks Related to Our Common Stock
  • We cannot guarantee that our share repurchases will enhance long-term shareholder value.
  • Our principal stockholders have the ability to control matters requiring a stockholder vote and could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of our company.
  • We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules and, as a result, qualify for, and intend to rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.
  • The market price of our Common Stock may be volatile.
  • Future sales of our Common Stock could depress its market price.
  • Future dividends on our Common Stock may be restricted or eliminated.
  • General Risk Factors
  • Technology failures or cyber security breaches or other unauthorized access to our information technology systems or sensitive or proprietary information could have an adverse effect on the Company's business and operations.
  • Technology failures or cyber security breaches or other unauthorized access to information technology systems of our customers, suppliers or vendors could have an adverse effect on the Company's business and operations.
  • The use of artificial intelligence technologies exposes us to risks which could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation and results of operations.
  • Our business could be adversely affected by a widespread threat to public health.
  • We are subject to various legal and regulatory proceedings, including litigation in the ordinary course of business, which may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
  • Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and stock price.
  • Failure to maintain a level of corporate social responsibility could damage our reputation and could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
  • Our business could be adversely affected by labor disputes and an inability to renew collective bargaining agreements at acceptable terms.
  • We may need to implement additional finance and accounting systems, procedures and controls as we grow our business and organization and to satisfy new reporting requirements.

Legal proceedings

From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently aware of any such proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
