THE MOSAIC COMPANY REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2018 RESULTS
Raises Full-Year Adjusted EBITDA and EPS Guidance
PLYMOUTH, MN, November 5, 2018 - The Mosaic Company (NYSE: MOS) today reported third quarter 2018 net earnings of $247 million. Adjusted EBITDA(1) during the quarter was $606 million, up sequentially and year-over-year. Third quarter diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $0.64, which included a negative impact of $0.11 per share from notable items, primarily related to discrete tax items and costs associated with the Vale Fertilizantes acquisition. Adjusted EPS(1) during the third quarter of 2018 was $0.75, ahead of last year and the second quarter of 2018.
Year-to-date net earnings were $358 million, and adjusted EBITDA(1) was $1.4 billion, up 71 percent compared to the same period in 2017. Diluted EPS for the first nine months of 2018 was $0.93, or $1.35 excluding notable items, an increase of 78 percent year-over-year. Growth in adjusted EBITDA(1) and EPS(1) reflected enhanced operational leverage across the business, the impact of the acquisition, integration and transformation in the Mosaic Fertilizantes segment, as well as improved market conditions
Highlights:
Guiding to full-year adjusted EBITDA(1) in the range of $1.90 to $2.00 billion, up from the previously increased $1.80 to $1.95 billion range.
Raising full-year adjusted EPS(1) guidance to $1.80 to $2.00, from $1.45 to $1.80, due to strong underlying business performance and lowered expected full-year effective tax rate.
Delivered on Mosaic Fertilizantes synergy targets with $128 million in gross realized synergies year-to-date, or $102 million net of costs to achieve them. Raised full year 2018 net synergy target to $140 to $160 million, and expect to achieve the full $275 million target ahead of schedule.
Completed the commitment to repay $700 million of long-term debt, two years ahead of the initial 2020 target, resulting in the Company meeting its through-cycle leverage targets.

“We saw strong fundamentals in the third quarter, and that momentum is continuing,” said Joc O’Rourke, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We’ve increased our full year earnings guidance to reflect strong operational performance across business units, as well improving market conditions. Our excellent progress on the transformational initiatives at Mosaic Fertilizantes is delivering tangible results to the bottom line.”
Mosaic’s net sales in the third quarter of 2018 were $2.9 billion, compared to $2.0 billion last year, primarily driven by the acquisition of Vale Fertilizantes and higher average sales prices in all three operating segments. Operating earnings during the quarter were $393 million, up from $214 million a year ago, driven by higher gross margins in all segments.
Cash flow from operating activities in the third quarter of 2018 was $524 million compared to $136 million in the prior year. Capital expenditures totaled $241 million in the quarter. The Company completed $400 million of debt retirement in the quarter, $200 million of which was previously announced. Mosaic’s total cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, were $1.0 billion, largely unchanged from a quarter ago, despite debt retirement. Long-term debt was $4.6 billion as of September 30, 2018.
“Mosaic has fulfilled our commitment to pay down $700 million of debt by 2020,” said Joc O’Rourke.  “Our lower debt levels and stronger earnings outlook bring Mosaic’s balance sheet closer to our through-cycle targets. As we look ahead, our capital priorities remain unchanged: maintain a strong balance sheet and sustain our assets to ensure reliability and the safety of our people, and maintain a balanced approach to investing to grow the business and returning capital to shareholders.”

Net sales in the Phosphates segment were $1.0 billion for the third quarter, up from $779 million last year, driven by higher average sales prices and higher sales volumes. Gross margin was $180 million for the third quarter compared to $67 million for the same period a year ago. The increase in the third quarter gross margin was primarily driven by higher average sales prices and operational improvements that lowered controllable operating costs in the segment. Last year’s period sales volumes and gross margin included a negative impact from Hurricane Irma of 220,000 tonnes and $26 million respectively. The current year period reflects the impact of the Plant City idling.





 

lowered controllable operating costs in the segment. These benefits were partially offset by higher sulfur costs, as well as the notable item discussed above.

Net sales in the Potash segment totaled $609 million for the third quarter, up from $474 million last year, driven by both higher average sales prices and higher sales volumes. Gross margin was $161 million for the third quarter compared to $99 million for the same period a year ago.
The improvement in gross margin was primarily driven by higher average sales prices, partially offset by timing of turn-around activities. MOP cash costs, including brine management costs, were $79 per tonne. Excluding the 2017 impact related to the resolution of a royalty matter with the government of Saskatchewan, MOP cash costs of production were essentially flat to last year’s levels, despite a lower operating rate due to the timing of planned maintenance turn-arounds in the current quarter.

Net sales in the Mosaic Fertilizantes segment were $1.4 billion for the third quarter, up from $806 million last year. Gross margin was $152 million, compared to $52 million for the same period a year ago. The year-over-year increase in gross margin was primarily driven by the acquisition of Vale Fertilizantes, as well higher margins in the legacy distribution business.





Mosaic Fertilizantes achieved $128 million in gross synergies year-to-date, or $102 million net of costs to achieve them. For the full year 2018, Mosaic expects $140 to $160 million of net synergies and expects to achieve its $275 million target well ahead of schedule.
Other
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses were $79 million for the third quarter, up from $66 million last year, primarily as a result of a larger business in Brazil and higher incentive compensation.
While the reported tax rate during the third quarter of 2018 was 26 percent, excluding discrete items the calculated GAAP effective tax rate was 19 percent. Mosaic expects to pay minimal cash income taxes in 2018. Mosaic believes there may be continued volatility in its effective tax rate due to changing interpretations of the new tax laws and changes in valuation allowances, but currently expects the 2018 effective tax rate, excluding discrete items, to be around 20 percent.
Financial Guidance
“While we continue to monitor several risk factors, we are optimistic about the outlook for our businesses,” O’Rourke said. “Accelerated Mosaic Fertilizantes synergy capture, continued ramp-up of the Esterhazy K3 mine and improving market fundamentals put Mosaic in an excellent position to create sustainable shareholder value over the long term.”

The Company’s forecasts assume continued strong market conditions in potash, as well as high operating rates at the three Canadian mines. Phosphates segment outlook reflects underlying firmness in supply and demand dynamics and normal year-end seasonality. In the Mosaic Fertilizantes segment, the Company expects the impacts of the higher average realized selling prices to be partially offset by the recent strengthening of the Brazilian Real relative to the U.S. Dollar. In addition to synergy capture progress, Mosaic continues to integrate production and distribution assets to optimize revenues, both of which are expected to benefit margins in the fourth quarter.
Risks and factors that could impact fourth quarter results are primarily related to foreign currency fluctuations. Risks also include second crop planting intentions in Brazil and logistics related disruptions in potash.
The Company is not providing forward looking guidance for U.S. GAAP reported earnings per diluted share or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted earnings per diluted share of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. Please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for additional information.  EPS guidance is based on preliminary estimates of asset values and depreciation for the acquired Vale Fertilizantes business which are expected to be finalized during 2018.

Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the anticipated benefits and synergies of our acquisition of the global phosphate and potash operations of Vale S.A. previously conducted through Vale Fertilizantes S.A. (which, when combined with our legacy distribution business in Brazil, is now known as Mosaic Fertilizantes) (the “Transaction”), other proposed or pending future transactions or strategic plans and other statements about future financial and operating results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes the presentation and discussion of non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share guidance, or adjusted EPS, non-GAAP gross margin per tonne, or adjusted gross margin per tonne, and non-GAAP EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA, referred to as non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a supplemental numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because non-GAAP measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP, they are thus susceptible to varying interpretations and calculations and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted metrics, including adjusted EPS, adjusted gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA are calculated by excluding the impact of notable items from the GAAP measure. Notable items impact on gross margin and EBITDA is pretax. Notable items impact on diluted net earnings per share is calculated as the notable item amount plus income tax effect, based on expected annual effective tax rate, divided by diluted weighted average shares. Management believes that these adjusted measures provide securities analysts, investors, management and others with useful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results. Management utilizes these adjusted measures in analyzing and assessing Mosaic’s overall performance and financial trends, for financial and operating decision-making, and to forecast and plan for future periods. These adjusted measures also assist our management in comparing our and our competitors' operating results. We are not providing forward looking guidance for U.S. GAAP reported diluted net earnings per share, gross margin per tonne, or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EPS, adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty our notable items without unreasonable effort. Historically, our notable items have included, but are not limited to, foreign currency transaction gain or loss, unrealized gain or loss on derivatives, acquisition-related fees, discrete tax items, contingencies and certain other gains or losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period. Reconciliations for current and historical periods beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 2016 for consolidated adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA, as well as segment adjusted EBITDA and adjusted gross margin per tonne are provided in the Selected Calendar Quarter Financial Information performance data for the related periods. This information is available on our website at www.mosaicco.com in the “Financial Information - Quarterly Earnings” section under the “Investors” tab.
