Intrepid Potash reports $62.1 million in Q2 2024 sales, net loss of $0.8 million; Cash flow provided by operations is $27.7 million, compared to $30.5 million in Q2 2023

August 5, 2024 (press release) –

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Intrepid Potash, Inc. ("Intrepid", the "Company", "we", "us", or "our") (NYSE:IPI) today reported its results for the second quarter of 2024.

Key Highlights for Second Quarter 2024

Financial & Operational

  • Total sales of $62.1 million, which compares to $81.0 million in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Net loss of $0.8 million (or $0.06 per diluted share), which compares to net income of $4.3 million (or $0.33 per diluted share) in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Gross margin of $7.6 million, which compares to $15.4 million in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Cash flow provided by operations of $27.7 million, which compares to $30.5 million in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (1) of $9.2 million, which compares to $15.8 million in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Potash and Trio ® sales volumes of 55 thousand and 63 thousand tons, respectively, which compares to 79 thousand and 63 thousand tons, respectively, in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Potash and Trio ® average net realized sales prices (1) of $405 and $314 per ton, respectively, which compares to $479 and $333 per ton, respectively, in the second quarter of 2023.

Management & Board of Directors Update

  • On July 10, 2024, we announced that the Board of Directors (“the Board”) of Intrepid elected Barth Whitham, formerly Lead Independent Director, as its Chair. On that date, the Board also announced that it initiated a search process to identify a successor for Intrepid’s CEO, Bob Jornayvaz, who is currently out on an extended medical leave of absence, as it is unlikely that Mr. Jornayvaz will return to his CEO role. During this process, Intrepid’s CFO, Matt Preston, will continue to serve as acting principal executive officer, working closely with the rest of the Company’s management team and the Board.

Capital Expenditures

  • Capital expenditures were $11.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, bringing our total capital expenditures to $23.0 million for the first six months ended June 30, 2024. We continue to expect full-year 2024 capital expenditures of $40 million to $50 million.

Project & Operational Updates

  • HB Solar Solution Mine in Carlsbad, New Mexico
    • Replacement Extraction Well ("IP30B") : We successfully completed the IP30B project in June 2024 and the new extraction well is now serving as our primary source of brine for the current evaporation season. We expect IP30B will be our primary extraction well for the Eddy Cavern for future evaporation seasons.
    • Phase Two of HB Injection Pipeline Project ("Phase Two") : Phase Two is the installation of an in-line pigging system to clean the HB injection pipeline and remove scaling to help ensure more consistent flow rates. All pipeline is now installed and tanks have been set, and we expect to commission the project in the third quarter of 2024.
  • Brine Recovery Mine in Wendover, Utah
    • Primary Pond 7 ("PP7") : Construction of PP7 is complete and the new pond is being filled with brine. This new primary pond is expected to increase the brine evaporative area at Wendover and help us meet our goals of maximizing brine availability, increasing brine grade, and improving production. We expect to see the production benefits of the new primary pond in the fall of 2025.
    • Lithium Project : We continue to advance our lithium project in Wendover and are in the process of reviewing proposals from multiple partners. The lithium already present in our byproduct magnesium brine is estimated to support approximately two thousand tons of lithium carbonate production per year assuming the existence of a commercially feasible extraction technology.
  • Intrepid South
    • Sand Project : We have all necessary permits in place to begin construction and operation on our sand project. While our sand project shows good potential, owing to softening conditions in the oilfield services market, we’re pausing development and will be dedicating our resources to other strategic priorities at this time.
  • East Underground Trio ® Mine
    • Operational & Cost Efficiencies : Owing to efficiencies from the two continuous miners placed into service in 2023 and the operation of our fine langbeinite recovery system, we've seen significant improvement in our production rates and cost structure compared to the prior year. For the first six months of 2024, our cost of goods sold totaled approximately $284 per ton, which compares to the same prior-year figure of $320 per ton. Improving our margins in the Trio ® segment through operational efficiencies and cost savings initiatives remains a key focus for Intrepid.

Liquidity

  • During the second quarter of 2024, cash flow provided by operations was $27.7 million, while cash used in investing activities was $9.8 million. As of July 31, 2024, Intrepid had approximately $51.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and had no outstanding borrowings on our $150 million revolving credit facility.
  • Intrepid maintains an investment account of short-and-long-term fixed income securities that had a balance of approximately $2.5 million as of July 31, 2024.

Consolidated Results, Management Commentary, & Outlook

In the second quarter of 2024, Intrepid generated sales of $62.1 million, a 23% decrease from second quarter 2023 sales of $81.0 million. Consolidated gross margin totaled $7.6 million, while net loss totaled $0.8 million, or a net loss of $0.06 per diluted share, which compares to second quarter 2023 net income of $4.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share. The Company delivered adjusted EBITDA (1) of $9.2 million, down from $15.8 million in the same prior year period, with the lower profitability primarily being driven by lower pricing for our key products. Our second quarter 2024 average net realized sales prices (1) for potash and Trio ® averaged $405 and $314 per ton, respectively, which compares to $479 and $333 per ton, respectively, in the second quarter of 2023.

Matt Preston, Intrepid's Chief Financial Officer and acting principal executive officer commented: "Our strategic focus continues to be improving our potash production, and I'm happy to share that we saw the first indications of this in our second quarter results. Improved brine grades at HB from the Eddy Cavern and good early-season evaporation rates, allowed us to extend our spring production season and we still expect our 2024 potash production to be approximately 15% higher than 2023.

As for our second quarter results, our operational and financial performance continues to be solid. In Trio ® , our sales volumes and production are well ahead of last year's pace through the first six months of the year as increased operating rates from our new continuous miners and our modified operating schedule have driven significant improvement in both our total and per ton production costs. Trio ® segment gross margin of $2.2 million in the second quarter was an increase of approximately $3.3 million sequentially and $1 million year-over-year. As the broader potash market looks to be finding its midcycle pricing floor, we remain focused on improving our unit economics by means of higher potash production.

Lastly, we want to again extend our best wishes to Bob as he continues his recovery. We will provide updates on our search for a new CEO as that process unfolds in the coming months."

Our total sales in the potash segment decreased $17.2 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, as potash sales decreased $17.0 million, or 41%, and potash segment byproduct sales decreased $0.3 million. Our potash sales decreased in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, as our average net realized sales price per ton decreased 15%, and we sold 30% fewer tons. We sold fewer tons of potash in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, as we had fewer tons of potash to sell due to lower potash production from our HB and Wendover facilities.

Our potash segment cost of goods sold decreased by 25% in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, as we sold 30% fewer tons of potash, although our production costs remained elevated due to decreased production volumes over the past year. A significant portion of our potash production costs are fixed and an increase in potash tons produced reduces our potash per ton cost.

During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded lower of cost or net realizable value inventory adjustments of $1.4 million as our weighted average carrying cost per ton for inventoried potash products at our HB and Wendover facilities was higher than our expected selling price per ton for those products.

Our potash segment gross margin decreased $9.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, due to the factors discussed above.

Trio ® segment sales decreased 8% during the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023. Trio ® sales decreased $0.8 million, and our Trio ® segment byproduct sales decreased $1.4 million. Trio ® sales volumes were flat year-over year, and similar to potash prices discussed above, our Trio ® average net realized sales price per ton has decreased since the peak prices realized during the second quarter of 2022, as potassium fertilizer supplies have improved.

Our Trio ® cost of goods sold decreased 18% in the second quarter of 2024 despite sales volumes matching the prior year quarter, as improved production rates and decreased total production costs led to an improvement in our per unit costs. In the second quarter of 2024, we produced 68 thousand tons of Trio ® which compares to 58 thousand tons in the same prior-year period. A significant portion of our production costs are fixed and an increase in tons produced decreases our per ton production costs.

Our Trio ® segment generated gross margin of $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to gross margin of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, due to the factors discussed above.

Oilfield Solutions

Our oilfield solutions segment sales increased $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in brine water sales and a $0.3 million increase in other oilfield solution products and services. Our water sales increased compared to the prior year period due to increased sales of water on our South ranch. Our brine water sales and sales of other oilfield solutions segments products and services increased due to continued strong demand from oil and gas operators in the Permian Basin near Intrepid South.

Our cost of goods sold decreased $0.4 million, or 11%, in the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023, due to using less contract labor. In the second quarter of 2023, we used contract labor to complete various projects at Intrepid South.

Gross margin for the second quarter of 2024 increased $0.8 million compared to the second quarter of 2023, due to the factors discussed above.

Notes

1 Adjusted net (loss) income, adjusted net (loss) income per diluted share, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) and average net realized sales price per ton are non-GAAP financial measures. See the non-GAAP reconciliations set forth later in this press release for additional information.

Unless expressly stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to tons in this press release refer to short tons. One short ton equals 2,000 pounds. One metric tonne, which many international competitors use, equals 1,000 kilograms or 2,204.62 pounds.

INTREPID POTASH, INC.
UNAUDITED NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023
(In thousands)

To supplement Intrepid's consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Intrepid uses several non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and evaluate its performance. These non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted net (loss) income, adjusted net (loss) income per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA, and average net realized sales price per ton. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures varies among companies, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Intrepid believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors for analysis of its business. Intrepid uses these non-GAAP financial measures as one of its tools in comparing period-over-period performance on a consistent basis and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. Intrepid believes these non-GAAP financial measures are used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations of companies in the potash mining industry. Many investors use the published research reports of these professional research analysts and others in making investment decisions.

Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Per Diluted Share

Adjusted net (loss) income and adjusted net (loss) income per diluted share are calculated as net (loss) income or net (loss) income per diluted share adjusted for certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period, as set forth in the reconciliation below. Intrepid considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful because they allow for period-to-period comparisons of its operating results excluding items that Intrepid believes are not indicative of its fundamental ongoing operations.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) is calculated as net (loss) income adjusted for certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period, as set forth in the reconciliation below. Intrepid considers adjusted EBITDA to be useful, and believe it to be useful for investors, because the measure reflects Intrepid's operating performance before the effects of certain non-cash items and other items that Intrepid believes are not indicative of its core operations. Intrepid uses adjusted EBITDA to assess operating performance.

Average Potash and Trio ® Net Realized Sales Price per Ton

Average net realized sales price per ton for potash is calculated as potash segment sales less potash segment byproduct sales and potash freight costs and then dividing that difference by the number of tons of potash sold in the period. Likewise, average net realized sales price per ton for Trio ® is calculated as Trio ® segment sales less Trio ® segment byproduct sales and Trio ® freight costs and then dividing that difference by Trio ® tons sold. Intrepid considers average net realized sales price per ton to be useful, and believe it to be useful for investors, because it shows Intrepid's potash and Trio ® average per ton pricing without the effect of certain transportation and delivery costs. When Intrepid arranges transportation and delivery for a customer, it includes in revenue and in freight costs the costs associated with transportation and delivery. However, some of Intrepid's customers arrange for and pay their own transportation and delivery costs, in which case these costs are not included in Intrepid's revenue and freight costs. Intrepid uses average net realized sales price per ton as a key performance indicator to analyze potash and Trio ® sales and price trends.
