Intrepid Announces Third Quarter 2019 Results

DENVER, Nov. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Intrepid Potash, Inc. (Intrepid) (NYSE:IPI) today reported its results for the third quarter of 2019.

Key Takeaways for Q3 2019

•        Double-digit sales increases across potash, Trio®, and oilfield solutions segments compared with the prior year third quarter, partially offset by startup costs associated with the accelerated ramp up of operations at Intrepid South.
•        Cash flow from operations of $5.9 million.
•        Net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.00 per share, a $3.6 million decrease compared to prior year third quarter net income of $3.4 million, or $0.03 per share.
•        Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $9.7 million.

“We continue to execute solidly on our strategy, delivering strong top-line results from our diversified revenue streams while accelerating overall investments and expenses, including the immediate use of third-party services for water transfers, ahead of our original plans at Intrepid South,” said Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid’s Executive Chairman, President, and CEO. “During the quarter, we saw strong revenue growth and meaningful bottom-line contribution from our oilfield solutions segment and we believe our investments at South have us on track to be able to deliver water to meet what our larger customers tell us will be increasing frac schedules in the coming quarters. Further, our expanded offerings at Intrepid South position us to capitalize on what we expect to be a strong 2020 for the oilfield solution business. As a premier provider of water in the northern Delaware Basin, we expect to deliver total 2019 water sales of between $25 million and $28 million.”

Jornayvaz continued, “After a tough spring brought about by wet weather across much of the U.S., our third quarter saw interest from fertilizer customers to replenish soil nutrients, which led to double-digit year-over-year sales increases for potash and Trio®. We believe the strategic moves we have made to lower our cost structure and increase direct-to-retailer selling for our fertilizer businesses position us well as short-term pricing headwinds arising from wet weather and global trade uncertainty are expected to limit pricing upside in the near-term. We made the decision to move additional tons into international markets in October, which will allow us to focus on the domestic Trio® market in 2020. Heading into the fourth quarter, our long-term view of the strength and opportunity for our diversified business remains steadfast.”

Consolidated Results

Intrepid generated net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.00 per share, and net income of $11.5 million, or $0.09 per share, during the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively. Consolidated gross margin decreased to $6.9 million in the third quarter compared to the prior-year period. During the quarter, increased sales, which were driven primarily by improvements in the average net realized sales price per ton(1) of potash and increased byproduct and water sales, were offset by below-average evaporation across our facilities because of significantly higher-than-average rainfall, which increased our per ton production costs, and increased costs of delivering water.

Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased to $33.3 million compared to the prior year period, primarily a result of higher net realized sales price per ton for potash and Trio®.

Segment Highlights

Potash

    Three Months Ended September 30,   Nine Months Ended September 30,
    2019   2018   2019   2018
    (in thousands, except per ton data)
Sales   $ 29,213     $ 26,513     $ 99,090     $ 89,174  
Gross margin   $ 4,588     $ 7,089     $ 22,180     $ 18,337  
                 
Potash sales volumes (in tons)   78     74     261     269  
Potash production volumes (in tons)   51     60     217     230  
                 
Average potash net realized sales price per ton(1)   $ 266     $ 258     $ 285     $ 251  

Third quarter 2019 sales increased $2.7 million, or 10%, compared to the third quarter of 2018 driven primarily by a 5% increase in potash sales volumes and an $8 increase in average net realized sales price per ton. During the third quarter of 2019, volumes were favorably impacted by healthy subscriptions to the summer fill program after the wet spring, although this also led to an 11% decrease in average net realized sales price per ton compared with the second quarter of 2019. Gross margin in the third quarter of 2019 was down 35% driven primarily by a change in sales mix and below-average evaporation across our facilities, which resulted in a higher per ton cost of production. Magnesium chloride production and sales, a byproduct of our Wendover operation, also decreased compared to the prior year. Wendover has seen nearly double its average annual rainfall this year, reducing the amount of product available for sale.

Gross margin increased $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, or 21%, compared with the same period in 2018, as a 14% year-over-year increase in average net realized sales prices per ton was partially offset by a 3% decrease in potash sales volume resulting from wet weather in parts of the U.S. early in the year.

Third quarter and year-to-date production volumes also declined compared to the prior year periods due to wet weather and the timing of harvest from Intrepid’s solar ponds.

Trio®

    Three Months Ended September 30,   Nine Months Ended September 30,
    2019   2018   2019   2018
    (in thousands, except per ton data)
Sales   $ 14,637     $ 10,859     $ 53,881     $ 51,814  
Gross margin (deficit)   $ (1,108 )   $ (178 )   $ 1,077     $ (4,487 )
                 
Trio® sales volume (in tons)   46     36     173     182  
Trio® production volume (in tons)   54     60     183     162  
                 
Average Trio® net realized sales price per ton(1)   $ 204     $ 200     $ 201     $ 194  

Sales improved $3.8 million, or 35%, to $14.6 million in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the prior year period, while gross deficit increased $0.9 million. During the third quarter, Trio® sales were favorably impacted by strong subscription to the summer fill program after the wet spring as well as increased byproduct water sales. These improvements were offset primarily by lower-of-cost-or-market adjustments related to inventory positioned for an international sale that is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter.

Gross margin improved to $1.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with a gross deficit of $4.5 million during the same period of 2018. This $5.6 million improvement was driven primarily by increased byproduct water sales and improved Trio® pricing. Lower cost of goods sold resulted from reduced overall sales volumes and more product sold into international markets, some of which carried lower per ton inventory cost due to previous write-downs based on an estimate of net realizable value.

Third quarter 2019 Trio® production volume declined 10% compared with the year-ago third quarter due to increases in the amount of standard-sized product used to produce premium Trio®.  Year to date, Trio® production was up 13% over the prior year as more work-in-process inventory was converted into premium Trio®.

Oilfield Solutions

    Three Months Ended September 30,   Nine Months Ended September 30,
    2019   2018   2019   2018
    (in thousands)
Sales   $ 7,310     $ 4,038     $ 19,574     $ 12,918  
Gross margin   $ 3,469     $ 2,049     $ 10,031     $ 9,596  

Sales increased $3.3 million, or 81%, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 driven by a $1.7 million increase in water sales and a $1.6 million increase in other sales, including products such as high-speed mixing and trucking, caliche, produced water disposal royalties, and rights-of-way or damages revenue associated with Intrepid South. Third quarter gross margin increased $1.4 million, or 69%, compared to the prior year third quarter as sales increases were partly offset by an increase in the cost of delivering water from the Pecos River, third-party costs to move water on Intrepid South while new infrastructure is being built, and additional depreciation expense for the Intrepid South assets acquired in May 2019.

Year-to-date 2019 sales increased $6.7 million, or 52%, compared with the same period in 2018, as a result of increases in sales of potassium chloride brine used in high-speed mixing services, water sales, and other sales. This increase in sales was offset by increased costs related to sales of potassium chloride brine, third-party costs to move water on Intrepid South, and additional depreciation expense for the Intrepid South assets acquired in May 2019, resulting in flat gross margins in the year to date 2019 compared with the same period in 2018.

Liquidity

Cash provided by operations was $5.9 million during the third quarter of 2019 and cash spent on investing activities was $7.7 million. As of September 30, 2019, Intrepid had $13.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $54.2 million available to borrow under its credit facility.

In August 2019, Intrepid amended its credit facility to change it from an asset-backed revolving credit facility to a cash-flow revolving credit facility, to increase the amount available under the facility from $50 million to $75 million plus an additional $75 million accordion, and to extend the maturity date to August 1, 2024.  As of September 30, 2019, Intrepid had $50.0 million of senior notes outstanding and $19.8 million outstanding under its amended credit facility.

INTREPID POTASH, INC.
UNAUDITED NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND 2018
(In thousands, except per share amounts)

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 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 EBITDA

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) is calculated as net income (loss) 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.
