Global Phosphate Shipment Forecasts by Region (August 2018) Source: IFA, CRU and Mosaic DAP / MAP / NPS* / Low High (Numbers may not sum to total due to rounding) TSP (Million Tonnes) 2016 2017R 2018F 2019F 2019F Comments We have downgraded our forecast for 2018 by nearly 1.0 mmt, given our most recent data on use during the spring season. It is from this lower base that we look for stabilization of domestic phosphate demand after several years of China 18.5 17.7 16.9 16.7 17.0 decline (from a peak of 21.8 mmt in 2014, a decline of 22% over the past 4 years). As expected, low inventories as the start of the year prompted a big import program (Jan-Jun imports of 2.5 mmt are nearly double the pace seen last year). With domestic production for H1 down by ~750,000 tonnes y-o-y, we expect imports to remain strong through 2018, coming in at around 5.5 mmt (versus 4.1mmt in 2017), though inventories are India 9.3 9.5 9.8 9.8 10.1 expected to end the year at low levels. Demand across this region remains robust driven by favorable policy changes, generally profitable farm economics, and mostly normal weather. We expect recent trends to continue in 2019, although early indications of a developing El Niño Other Asia/Oceania 8.3 9.3 9.7 9.9 10.2 is a yellow flag. Our 2018 estimate is at the top end of our expectations on strong shipments in H1, though the drought conditions Europe and FSU 5.8 6.2 6.0 6.1 6.3 across much of the region coupled with potential destocking of the distribution pipeline could threaten H2 volumes. Farm economics continue to look very attractive on the strength of Brazilian soybean export prices and a weakened currency, though FX volatility and uncertainty surrounding truck freight tariffs have kept 2018 shipment growth in check. We expect that inventories will end the year well below average on the slow pace of imports (down 10% y-o-y through Brazil 7.8 8.2 8.5 8.7 9.0 June) and strong on-farm demand, leading to an acceleration of shipment growth in 2019. We have revised higher our 2017 shipment estimate on updated trade statistics, but have left our 2018 estimate little- Other Latin America 3.8 3.6 3.7 3.7 3.9 changed with continued profitable farm economics. On-farm demand held firm in spring 2018 despite spring arriving late in some parts, and we expect that shipments will also be robust in the fall, as the early maturation of this year’s crops should lead to a long, open season. This has the North America 9.4 9.9 10.1 9.8 10.1 potential to pull forward some volumes from spring 2019. Our forecasts for Africa have been revised upwards for 2017, which carries through to a higher estimate for 2018, as Other 4.7 4.9 5.2 5.3 5.4 growth in African demand continues to surprise to the upside. At 70.0 mmt, our point estimate for 2018 remains right in the middle of our previous guidance of 69-71 mmt. Excluding China, this represents an increase of 1.6 mmt or 3.1% from an upwardly-revised estimate for 2017. Our first call on 2019 shipments is 70-72 mmt, with a current point estimate in the middle of the range. Excluding China, this adds Total 67.7 69.2 70.0 70.0 72.0 another nearly 2% or 1.0 mmt to the lofty 2018 tally. * NPS products included in this analysis are those with a combined N and P O nutrient content of 45 units or greater. 2 5 17

Global Potash Shipment Forecasts by Region (August 2018) Source: IFA, CRU and Mosaic Muriate of Potash Low High (Numbers may not sum to total due to rounding) Million Tonnes (KCl) 2016 2017R 2018F 2019F 2019F Comments Shipments are projected to rebound to 15.4 mmt in 2018 (~7.5 mmt production plus ~7.9 mmt of net imports). Demand is expected to increase modestly in 2019 as a result of lower-but-still-high domestic crop prices, moderate potash prices and China 14.0 14.7 15.4 15.5 15.7 the push to boost domestic crop/soybean production. Shipments are forecast to remain steady in the 4.6 mmt range. High minimum support prices for key crops and another normal monsoon underpin steady on-farm use, but the increase in the MRP to offset a lower subsidy, weaker rupee, and India 3.9 4.6 4.6 4.4 4.6 higher potash prices is expected to limit demand gains. 2017 shipments were revised up based on IFA statistics released in May. Shipments are expected to hold near this level through 2019. Expectations of a normal monsoon and steady rice prices support demand, but lower palm oil prices as Indonesia+Malaysia 4.7 5.4 5.3 5.3 5.5 well as some hints of an El Nino are a yellow flag. Demand continues to grow rapidly in this region. Across-the-board gains have occurred, but increases in Bangladesh, Thailand, and Vietnam are noteworthy. Demand is buoyed by the combination of generally good weather, favorable Other Asia 4.8 5.0 5.4 5.5 5.7 policies, OK crop prices and continued moderate K prices. European shipments are projected to stay stable at around 4.8 mmt, but the severe drought this summer in some W. Europe 5.0 4.8 4.8 4.7 4.9 countries could threaten 2019 demand. Shipments increased again in 2018 following big harvests in most parts of the region last year. Mostly favorable weather and weaker currencies have propelled crop production. That coupled with moderate K prices has underpinned demand. E. Europe+FSU 4.6 5.1 5.3 5.4 5.6 The severe drought this summer could constrain growth in 2019. Shipments are expected to blast through the 10.0 mmt mark this year and then notch a tick higher in 2019 due to continued good weather and positive agronomic and economic demand drivers. Soybean economics remain profitable Brazil 9.3 9.7 10.3 10.5 10.7 despite lower CME prices due to a weaker real and a record local basis. Shipments in the rest of Latin America look to remain stable due to generally favorable farm economics and a mostly OK Other L. America 2.8 2.9 2.8 2.8 3.0 weather outlook at this point. The 2017 surge resulted from a strong fall application season and early positioning of 2018 needs ahead of announced price increases. Shipments so far this year have remained strong, reflecting expectations of solid on-farm use. N. America 9.4 10.5 9.9 9.7 9.9 Shipments are projected to settle in the 9.7-9.9 mmt range. Africa accounts for much of the recent and projected gains in the rest of the world, but other regions such as Oceania Other 2.4 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.4 have registered notable increases. After the big jump last year, shipments are forecast to increase moderately this year. 2017 shipments were revised up from 65.0 to 65.6 mmt, so the increase last year now stands at a whopping 7.7% or 4.7 mmt. Shipments this year are projected to add 1.3 mmt to this record tally, a gain of another 2.1%. Our initial forecasts Total 60.9 65.6 66.9 67.0 69.0 by region for 2019 sum to 67-69 mmt. 18
