Revenue by Segment
Forward Guidance
The outlook for both the industry and Intrepid remains strong. The global fertilizer supply challenges - particularly for potash - remains unabated.
Positive Outlook
- Even with the announced potash supply additions, we believe the lack of supply versus historical levels of demand will result in potash prices remaining elevated.
- Forward crop prices still point to historically strong US farmer economics.
- Intrepid generated adjusted EBITDA of $91.6 million on total sales of $196.1 million, for adjusted EBITDA margins of 47% in the first half of the year
- First half 2022 cash flow from operations totaled $83.2 million and we ended July with $85 million of cash and cash equivalents for total liquidity of $159 million.
- For 2022, we have budgeted for approximately $65 million to $75 million of capital spending, with a roughly 50-50 split between maintenance and growth.
Challenges Ahead
- After nearly 18 months of strong demand in the potash market, we expect buyers will approach second half with significantly more restraint given inventory carryover following a compressed spring
- Heightened concerns over the increased credit and inventory exposure they face at current price levels.
