and CEO, stated: &ldquo;Our third quarter of 2015 results were impacted by the lower production margin environment and one-time
expenses related to our recent acquisition of the Aventine assets. We made great strides at integrating and improving the new
production facilities and are beginning to see the benefits of this important acquisition. We remain focused on optimizing all
of our assets, expanding our ethanol marketing, and building on our success of implementing plant improvement and yield enhancement
initiatives. We are well positioned to expand our market share and improve our financial results.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Management believes that certain financial
measures not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (&quot;GAAP&quot;) are useful measures of operations.
The company defines Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as unaudited income (loss) available to common stockholders before fair value adjustments
and warrant inducements, purchase accounting adjustments and gain (loss) on extinguishments of debt. The company defines Adjusted
EBITDA as unaudited net income (loss) attributed to Pacific Ethanol before interest, provision for income taxes, purchase accounting
adjustments, depreciation and amortization and fair value adjustments and warrant inducements. Tables are provided at the end of
this release that provide a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA to their most directly comparable
GAAP measures. Management provides these non-GAAP measures so that investors will have the same financial information that management
uses, which may assist investors in properly assessing the company's performance on a period-over-period basis. Adjusted Net Income
(Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered alternatives to net
income (loss) or any other measure of performance under GAAP, or to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities
as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as
analytical tools and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company's results
as reported under GAAP.</P>

others, the inherent uncertainty associated with financial and other projections; integration of Aventine and the ability to recognize
the anticipated synergies and benefits of the Aventine acquisition; the anticipated size of the markets and continued demand for
Pacific Ethanol&rsquo;s products; the impact of competitive products and pricing; the risks and uncertainties normally incident
