The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS) has released its combined July and August 2024 sales volumes and revenue by business segment. Potash sales volumes decreased to 1,310,000 tonnes from 1,483,000 tonnes in the same period last year, with revenues falling to $358 million from $489 million. Phosphates sales volumes dropped to 937,000 tonnes from 1,081,000 tonnes, with revenues declining slightly to $620 million from $642 million. Mosaic Fertilizantes saw sales volumes decrease to 1,851,000 tonnes from 2,016,000 tonnes, with revenues dropping to $886 million from $1,150 million.

The company has resolved production challenges at Colonsay and restored Esterhazy hoisting capacity. However, due to various interruptions, Mosaic has adjusted its Q3 2024 guidance. Potash sales volumes are now expected to be 1.85-2.05 million tonnes, down from the previous 2.1-2.3 million tonnes. Phosphates sales volumes are projected at 1.45-1.65 million tonnes, reduced from 1.7-1.9 million tonnes, partly due to Hurricane Helene's impact on shipments.

The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS) ha pubblicato i volumi di vendita combinati di luglio e agosto 2024 e i ricavi per segmento di attività. I volumi di vendita di potassio sono diminuiti a 1.310.000 tonnellate rispetto a 1.483.000 tonnellate nello stesso periodo dell'anno scorso, con i ricavi che sono scesi a 358 milioni di dollari rispetto a 489 milioni. I volumi di vendita di fosfati sono scesi a 937.000 tonnellate da 1.081.000 tonnellate, con i ricavi che sono diminuiti leggermente a 620 milioni di dollari da 642 milioni. Mosaic Fertilizantes ha visto i volumi di vendita scendere a 1.851.000 tonnellate da 2.016.000 tonnellate, con ricavi che sono diminuiti a 886 milioni di dollari da 1.150 milioni.

L'azienda ha risolto le sfide produttive a Colonsay e ha ripristinato la capacità di sollevamento di Esterhazy. Tuttavia, a causa di varie interruzioni, Mosaic ha adeguato le sue previsioni per il terzo trimestre 2024. I volumi di vendita di potassio sono ora previsti tra 1,85-2,05 milioni di tonnellate, in calo rispetto ai precedenti 2,1-2,3 milioni di tonnellate. I volumi di vendita di fosfati sono previsti tra 1,45-1,65 milioni di tonnellate, ridotti rispetto a 1,7-1,9 milioni di tonnellate, in parte a causa dell'impatto dell'uragano Helene sulle spedizioni.

Los volúmenes de ventas de fosfatos se proyectan en 1.45-1.65 millones de toneladas, reducidos de 1.7-1.9 millones de toneladas, en parte debido al impacto del huracán Helene en los envíos.

Les volumes de vente de potasse sont désormais estimés entre 1,85 et 2,05 millions de tonnes, contre les prévisions précédentes de 2,1 à 2,3 millions de tonnes. Les volumes de vente de phosphates devraient être compris entre 1,45 et 1,65 million de tonnes, réduits par rapport à 1,7 à 1,9 million de tonnes, en partie en raison de l'impact de l'ouragan Helene sur les expéditions.

The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS) hat die kombinierten Verkaufszahlen und Einnahmen für Juli und August 2024 nach Geschäftssegmenten veröffentlicht.

Das Unternehmen hat Produktionsprobleme in Colonsay gelöst und die Förderkapazität in Esterhazy wiederhergestellt. Aufgrund verschiedener Unterbrechungen hat Mosaic jedoch seine Prognose für das dritte Quartal 2024 angepasst.

Die Verkaufszahlen für Phosphate werden auf 1,45 bis 1,65 Millionen Tonnen prognostiziert, was eine Reduzierung von 1,7 bis 1,9 Millionen Tonnen darstellt, teilweise bedingt durch die Auswirkungen des Hurrikans Helene auf die Lieferungen.

Insights

The reported sales volumes and revenues for July and August 2024 show a concerning trend across all segments. Potash sales volumes decreased by 11.7% year-over-year, with revenues dropping by $131 million or 26.8%. This significant decline in both volume and price suggests weakening market conditions for potash.

Phosphates segment also experienced a decline, with sales volumes down by 13.3% and revenues decreasing by $22 million or 3.4%. The smaller revenue drop relative to volume indicates some price resilience in phosphates.

Mosaic Fertilizantes saw the largest revenue decline of $264 million or 23%, with volumes down 8.2%. This points to challenging market conditions across regions.

The production challenges and weather-related interruptions have led to downward revisions in Q3 2024 volume guidance for both Potash and Phosphates segments. While some recovery is expected in Q4, these issues will likely impact the company's full-year performance negatively.

The global fertilizer market is showing signs of softening demand and pricing pressure. Mosaic's volume declines across all segments indicate a broader industry trend rather than company-specific issues. The significant price drops in potash (implied 17% decrease in price per tonne) suggest oversupply or reduced farmer purchasing power.

The revised guidance for Q3 2024 reflects both operational challenges and market conditions. Potash volumes are now expected to be 11.9% lower at the midpoint compared to previous guidance. Phosphates volumes are projected to be 14.7% lower at the midpoint.

Despite these challenges, Mosaic maintains its price outlook for both MOP and DAP, which could indicate some stabilization in the market. However, investors should monitor whether these price levels can be sustained given the volume pressures. The company's ability to recover delayed shipments in Q4 will be important for meeting annual targets and maintaining investor confidence.

Mosaic provided an operations update earlier this month. The company is pleased to announce that the production challenges caused by electrical issues at Colonsay have been resolved and production has returned to normal. Esterhazy hoisting capacity, which has been negatively impacted by an electrical issue, has been restored to levels that meet full milling capacity and allow for full production. Additional work will be undertaken over the next few months to complete repairs and ensure the highest-level of reliability.

Third quarter 2024 potash sales volumes are expected to be in the range of 1.85-2.05 million tonnes, down from 2.1-2.3 million tonnes in our previous guidance, reflecting the midpoint estimate previously provided regarding the aforementioned production interruptions. The outlook for MOP prices at the mine is unchanged at $200-$220 per tonne.

In Phosphates, earlier this month, Mosaic announced production interruptions caused by weather related events including Hurricane Francine in Louisiana. The company is pleased to report production at the Louisiana facility has returned to normal.

In addition, in anticipation of Hurricane Helene, product shipments were curtailed beginning September 23 rd as the Tampa port was temporarily shut down. With an average shipment rate of approximately 150,000 tons per week, and uncertainty on whether shipments will resume within the week, Mosaic has further adjusted its volume guidance to reflect a one-week delay in customer shipments. Mosaic expects to recover a portion of those volumes in the fourth quarter.

Phosphates third quarter sales volumes are now expected to be in the range of 1.45-1.65 million tonnes, down from our previous guidance of 1.7-1.9 million tonnes. Guidance on DAP prices at the plant is unchanged in the range of $555-$575 per tonne.
