THE MOSAIC COMPANY REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2024 RESULTS
•Net income of $169 million in the fourth quarter 2024, and full year net income of $175 million,
•Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $594 million in the fourth quarter 2024 and $2.2 billion for the full year;
•Realized approximately half of the $150 million cost savings target.
•Closed the Ma'aden transaction with a $522 million pre-tax gain and signed an agreement to sell Patos de Minas mine in Brazil.

TAMPA, FL, February 27, 2025 - The Mosaic Company (NYSE: MOS) today reported net income of $175 million and diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.55 for full year 2024. Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the year was $2.2 billion and adjusted diluted EPS(1) was $1.98.
The company reported fourth quarter net income of $169 million and diluted EPS of $0.53. Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $594 million for the quarter and adjusted diluted EPS(1) was $0.45.
"We delivered our highest quarterly EBITDA of the year with great prospects for all three segments for 2025. Despite a series of operational and weather-related issues, which reduced our phosphate production by over 700,000 tonnes and potash production by about 250,000 tonnes in 2024, we see encouraging signs that we will deliver significant volume recovery in phosphates and potash in 2025 as we progress on projects to restore reliability. We also made significant progress on our cost performance in the Mosaic Fertilizantes business, leading to the prospect of increased margins in 2025.” said Bruce Bodine, President and CEO. “With the conclusion of the Ma’aden deal and the signing of the Patos de Minas sale, we continue to execute our strategy to redeploy capital from non-core assets to our highest returning areas. As a result, Mosaic is well positioned to benefit from improving market conditions in 2025"

Full year revenues declined 19 percent year-over-year to $11.1 billion, reflecting the impact of lower selling prices in the Potash and Mosaic Fertilizantes segments. The gross margin rate in 2024 was 14 percent, down from 16 percent in 2023.
Net Income in 2024 totaled $175 million, declining 85 percent from 2023. 2024 results reflected the negative after-tax impact of notable items totaling $459 million, mainly from a foreign currency transaction loss, partially offset by a gain on sale associated with the Ma'aden transaction. For other notable items, refer to the "Notable Items" table in the appendix. The notable foreign exchange loss for the year of $642 million was driven mainly by unrealized losses on intercompany loans between the US and Canada and between the US and Brazil, particularly in the fourth quarter when the Brazilian real and the Canadian dollar declined by 14% and 6%, respectively versus the prior quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) in 2024 totaled $2.2 billion, a decline of 20 percent from 2023. Cash flows from operating activities totaled $1.3 billion.
In 2024, the company realized approximately half of its $150 million cost saving target and is on track to achieve the full run rate by the end of 2025. $35 million of the cost reductions realized in 2024 is captured in the Mosaic Fertilizantes segment and $42 million is captured in SG&A.
Full-year selling, general and administrative expenses were $497 million in 2024 compared with $501 million in 2023. SG&A expenses in 2024 include approximately $30 million in bad debt expenses related to a single customer booked in the third quarter and an increase in non-cash costs of $8 million. Most of the bad debt expense is expected to be recovered through an insurance claim.
Mosaic recognized $73 million of equity earnings from investments, primarily reflecting contributions from the company’s share of the MWSPC joint venture in Saudi Arabia prior to the conversion of this investment into shares of Ma’aden.
The reported effective tax rate for 2024 was 59.2 percent. Adjusted effective tax rate(1) was 33.2 percent excluding the one-time net unfavorable impacts from notable items including $103 million in the second quarter for Mosaic’s decision to reverse the permanent reinvestment in Canada. The $103 million is a deferred tax liability that represents the tax impact of the repatriation of retained earnings from Canada to the United States. Cash taxes paid in 2024 were $337 million.

The Potash segment reported net sales of $2.4 billion in 2024, down from $3.2 billion in 2023, reflecting lower prices and slightly lower sales volumes. Adjusted EBITDA per tonne(1) was $108, down from $166 last year. Sales volumes decreased from 8.9 million tonnes in 2023 to 8.7 million tonnes in 2024, reflecting the production challenges at the Esterhazy and Colonsay mines in the third quarter of 2024. Potash operating earnings were $605 million in 2024, down from $1.2 billion in the prior year.
(1)See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information and reconciliation.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $944 million in 2024, down from $1.5 billion last year. Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $212 million in the fourth quarter 2024, down from $322 million in the same period last year. These results reflect lower selling prices.
The electrical issues at Esterhazy and Colonsay that reduced 2024 production levels were largely resolved in the third quarter of 2024. Hoisting at Esterhazy is back to full capacity now. This significantly improves our asset reliability going forward and will continue to provide us with excess hoisting capacity as well as higher production output as the Hydrofloat project completes in 2025. Potash production volumes in 2025 are expected to be in the range of 8.7-9.1 million tonnes.
Sales volumes in the first quarter are expected to be between 2.0 and 2.2 million tonnes with realized mine-gate MOP prices in the range of $200 to $220 per tonne.

*Tonnes = finished product tonnes Net sales in the Phosphate segment decreased to $4.5 billion in 2024, from $4.7 billion in 2023, driven by lower sales volume, partially offset by higher prices. Phosphate operating earnings were $225 million in 2024, compared to $375 million in 2023. Segment results reflect higher prices, elevated stripping margins, and lower sales and production volumes.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $1.19 billion in 2024, down slightly from $1.23 billion in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $341 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, up from $259 million in the same period last year; higher full year prices and elevated stripping margins, offset lower sales and production volumes as conversion costs per tonne stayed flat versus prior year.
Sales volumes decreased from 7.0 million tonnes in 2023 to 6.4 million tonnes in 2024 while production volumes declined from 6.6 million tonnes to 6.4 million tonnes due to approximately 700 thousand tonnes of production lost due to hurricanes and other unusual events. Adjusted EBITDA per tonne(1) was $185 in 2024, compared to $176 in 2023.
After the conclusion of a turnaround at the Bartow facility in the first quarter of 2025, all sulfuric acid plants across Florida and Louisiana will be within the normal cadence with an average of 3-year interval between turnarounds. Mosaic has additional plans in 2025 to further strengthen its asset reliability and this work is expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter. 2025 production volumes are expected to improve throughout the year and revert towards a level of 7.2-7.6 million tonnes.
Sales volumes in the first quarter are expected to be 1.5-1.7 million tonnes with DAP prices on an FOB basis averaging $595 to $615 per tonne. Stripping margins are expected to remain elevated.

*Tonnes = finished product tonnesMosaic Fertilizantes reported net sales of $4.4 billion in 2024, down from $5.7 billion in the prior year, reflecting lower prices and sales volumes. The gross adjusted EBITDA per tonne tonne(1) averaged $38 in 2024, up from $34 in 2023. Mosaic Fertilizantes operating earnings were $238 million in 2024, increasing from $75 million in 2023. Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $344 million in 2024, up from $327 million last year.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $82 million in fourth quarter 2024, down from $111 million in the same period last year. Segment Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the fourth quarter reflects strong underlying operating and cost performance. For example, since early 2024, Mosaic ceased to import phosphate rock and increased its own rock production to be processed in the production facilities in Brazil. This will have reduce production costs by $35 to $40 million a year, with $15 million already realized in 2024. The expected annual cost benefit run rate translates into gross margin of approximately $2 per tonne.
However, these cost improvements were partially offset by a negative $35 million foreign exchange impact in adjusted EBITDA, $28 million of which was related to unfavorable structured payables, with an additional $7 million unfavorable from hedging impacts.
Mosaic Fertilizantes has accounts payable denominated in U.S. dollars. These USD-denominated payables were initially recorded in BRL using prior lower exchange rates, and were settled in the fourth quarter at higher exchange rates, after a 14% weakening of the BRL. This resulted in a $28 million negative impact to adjusted EBITDA.
In the first quarter of 2025, $15-$20 million EBITDA impact is expected on the remaining open payables recorded at lower exchange rates. Distribution margin is expected to be seasonally normal and below the annual normalized $30-$40 per tonne range in the first quarter of 2025. The currency impact and lower distribution margins will likely result in segment gross margins between $35-45 per tonne in the first quarter. Assuming the USD/BRL exchange rate stays at a level of 5.5-6.0 in 2025, EBITDA beyond the first quarter will not be significantly impacted by this type of foreign exchange impact.

Portfolio and Capital Allocation
•Mosaic has made significant progress on divesting non-core assets and investments
•In December, Mosaic closed the Ma'aden transaction and received approximately $1.5 billion in Ma'aden common shares in exchange for Mosaic's 25% share of the Wa'ad Al Shamal Phosphate Company. Mosaic recorded a gain of $522 million from this transaction in the fourth quarter of 2024.
•In January of 2025, Mosaic signed an agreement to sell the idled phosphate mine Patos de Minas in Brazil for $125 million. The transaction is expected to be close in 2025. Mosaic will receive $35 million upon closing and the remainder of the price through six annual payments of $15 million.
•Mosaic continues to progress on high-returning and low-capital intensity projects
•The Riverview capacity conversion project which added 800 thousand tonnes of MicroEssentials capacity is complete. MicroEssentials volumes are expected to grow 25% in 2025, ramping in 2026 to a goal of about 55% of total phosphates volumes in 2027. In 2024, MicroEssentials products were sold at an average gross margin premium of $30-$40 over the gross margin of MAP.
•The Esterhazy Hydrofloat project is on track to complete by mid-year 2025, with an expected ramp-up by end of 2025. Once fully ramped up, the Hydrofloat project will enable additional production of 400 thousand tonnes of MOP from Esterhazy.
•The construction of a one million tonne blending facility in Palmeirante, Brazil is on track to be completed by mid-2025. Palmeirante will enable Mosaic Fertilizantes to increase overall sales by the same one million tonnes, with intended distribution margins approaching the average for Fertilizantes of $30-40 per tonne.
•2024 capital expenditures of $1.25 billion are within the targeted range and were about $200 million lower than in 2023. 2025 capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $1.2 to $1.3 billion.
•Mosaic returned $506 million of capital to shareholders in 2024 including share repurchases totaling $235 million.
2025 Market Outlook
Grain and oilseed fundamentals have improved over the past few months, as evidenced by rising corn prices in particular, while most other crops prices remain elevated. This continues to incentivize farmers to apply fertilizers to maximize yields. Demographic changes and government mandates for biofuel usage are expected to provide a long runway for grain and oilseed demand expansion, driving steady growth in fertilizer shipments in 2025 as well as longer term.
Phosphate markets are expected to remain tight driven by continued supply constraints and increasing demand for fertilizer, fuel, and industrial uses. Chinese phosphate exports in 2024 declined 8 percent or over 600,000 tonnes from the prior year, and the long-term outlook remains favorable as Chinese domestic use and industrial needs will continue to be prioritized over fertilizer exports.
Potash markets are improving in the near to medium term driven by output reductions from key producers in Russia, Belarus and China, as well as headwinds to the planned expansions in Laos. The potential impact of tariffs that may be imposed on Canadian potash exports to the U.S. are uncertain, but it is clear that the tariffs, if levied as originally proposed, would cause significant disruptions in global potash trade flows and logistics. It is expected that tariffs would exert further upward pressure on prices, and that U.S. farmers would bear the cost increase. Even so we anticipate that potash would remain affordable, and demand would remain robust, in North America and globally.
The potential resolution of the Russia / Ukraine conflict will likely have minimal impact to the potash and phosphate markets and Mosaic as Russian exports have already returned to pre-war levels. Also, Belarussian exports have already returned to 90% of pre-sanction levels, and it is not clear that a resolution would open up the most critical transit corridor necessary to bring about a full production resumption.
With these market dynamics, the prospects of potash are compelling in 2025 and beyond.

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, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, or non-GAAP adjusted effective tax rate, collectively 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 Non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release are found below. Reconciliations for current and historical periods beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2023 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 being furnished under Exhibit 99.2 of the Form 8-K and available on our website at www.mosaicco.com in the “Financial Information - Quarterly Earnings” section under the “Investors” tab.
