PLYMOUTH, Minn, July 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Mosaic Company (NYSE: MOS) announced today net income of $146.9 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter ended May 31, 2009. These results compare with net earnings of $862.5 million, or $1.93 per share, for the fourth quarter ended May 31, 2008. The Company maintained a strong financial position, with cash and cash equivalents of $2.7 billion as of May 31, 2009.

KEY ITEMS

The average diammonium phosphate (DAP) selling price was $345 per tonne and total phosphate sales volumes were 1.9 million tonnes The average muriate of potash (MOP) selling price was $540 per tonne and total potash sales volumes were 0.6 million tonnes A tax benefit of $282.7 million, or $0.63 per share, was recorded relating to a special dividend from Mosaic's non-U.S. subsidiaries to its U.S. subsidiaries Foreign currency transaction losses, largely non-cash, were $297.9 million, or $0.42 per share, compared to a gain of $12.8 million a year ago Cash flow from operating activities was $305.8 million compared to cash flow used in operating activities of $11.2 million in the third quarter

Mosaic had net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 of $1.6 billion, a decrease of $1.9 billion, or 54%, compared to the same period a year ago.

Mosaic's gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 was $204.1 million, or 13% of net sales, compared with $1.3 billion, or 37% of net sales, a year ago. Fourth quarter operating earnings were $126.3 million compared with $1.2 billion a year ago. Mosaic's fourth quarter results were driven by significantly lower sales volumes and lower phosphate selling prices. The significant decline in sales volumes, primarily potash, in the fourth quarter was related to continued cautious purchasing by customers due to, among other factors, volatile grain and oilseed prices, global economic conditions, the recalibration of the phosphate market to reflect, in part, lower raw material input costs and the lack of normal contracting activity in the potash market.

"We managed our business well and became financially stronger during a year of unprecedented volatility," said Jim Prokopanko, Mosaic's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We remain highly confident in the long-term agricultural outlook and look forward to building momentum during fiscal 2010."

Potash

Net sales in the Potash segment were $386.8 million for the fourth quarter, a decline from $860.5 million a year ago. The Potash segment's gross margin was $221.2 million in the fourth quarter, or 57% of net sales, compared with $342.4 million, or 40% of net sales a year ago. Operating earnings were $198.6 million during the fourth quarter, a decline from $331.3 million in the same period last year. Operating earnings declined from the prior year as a result of a 73% decline in sales volumes and the adverse effect of significantly lower potash production rates, partially offset by higher selling prices and lower Canadian resource taxes and royalties.

The average fourth quarter MOP selling price, FOB plant, was $540 per tonne, which is a $205 per tonne increase compared with a year ago and a $25 per tonne decrease compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

The Potash segment's total sales volume was 0.6 million tonnes for the fourth quarter compared to 2.4 million tonnes a year ago. Potash production was 0.7 million tonnes in the fourth quarter, a decline of 1.5 million tonnes from a year ago. Mosaic began reducing potash production at its mines and plants in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 in response to a build-up of inventories and a decline in demand and will continue to do so until demand improves.

Phosphates

Net sales in the Phosphates segment were $884.5 million for the fourth quarter, compared with net sales of $2.0 billion a year ago. Phosphates' fourth quarter gross margin was $32.9 million, or 4% of net sales, compared with gross margin of $851.6 million, or 42% of net sales, for the same period a year ago. The Phosphates segment had operating earnings of $2.3 million compared with operating earnings of $797.4 million in the same period last year. The primary factors impacting results were lower selling prices and a 21% decline in sales volumes, partially offset by lower raw material costs.

The average fourth quarter DAP selling price, FOB plant, was $345 per tonne, which was a $409 per tonne decrease compared with a year ago and a $68 per tonne decrease compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

The Phosphates segment's total sales volume was 1.9 million tonnes for the fourth quarter compared to 2.4 million tonnes a year ago. Sales volumes picked up in the fourth quarter compared to third quarter levels as customers started restocking depleted inventories.

Offshore

The Offshore segment's net sales were $394.1 million during the fourth quarter compared with $695.0 million for the same period a year ago. Gross margin decreased to a loss of $109.2 million in the fourth quarter compared to a gross margin of $133.5 million, or 19% of net sales, for the same period last year. Offshore incurred an operating loss of $126.7 million in the fourth quarter compared to operating earnings of $101.5 million a year ago. The operating loss resulted from declines in sales volumes and selling prices and a $64.9 million lower of cost or market inventory write-down. This inventory write-down was mostly related to high cost inventories held in Brazil and Argentina where market pricing continued to deteriorate from third quarter levels.

Other

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) were $83.3 million in the fourth quarter compared to $96.2 million last year and were lower mainly due to a decline in incentive compensation accruals.

Net interest expense totaled $16.2 million in the fourth quarter, an increase from $6.3 million a year ago largely due to lower average interest rates earned on cash balances.

A foreign currency transaction loss of $297.9 million was recorded for the fourth quarter compared to a gain of $12.8 million for the same period a year ago. This non-cash loss was largely the result of the effect of a weaker U.S. dollar on significant U.S. dollar denominated intercompany receivables and cash held by Mosaic's Canadian subsidiaries. The Company intentionally does not hedge this activity as it does not represent economic or cash flow exposure.

Mosaic recorded an income tax benefit of $330.3 million in the fourth quarter compared to income tax expense of $354.0 million for the same period last year resulting in an effective tax rate of 30%. The tax benefit in the fourth quarter related largely to a special dividend that was distributed from the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries to its U.S. subsidiaries.

Total equity earnings in non-consolidated subsidiaries were $5.6 million in the fourth quarter, compared with $35.8 million for the same period a year ago. The reduction in equity earnings is primarily the result of the sale of Mosaic's interest in Saskferco Products ULC in October 2008. Mosaic's equity earnings in Saskferco in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 were $21.4 million. Equity earnings in Fertifos S.A. were $3.6 million for the fourth quarter compared to $12.3 million for the same period a year ago.

Mosaic ended the fourth quarter with $2.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents. Cash flow provided by operating activities for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $305.8 million, a decline from $1.0 billion compared to a year ago, mostly due to lower net earnings. Mosaic's total debt as of May 31, 2009 was $1.4 billion compared to $1.6 billion as of May 31, 2008.

Full-Year Results

For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2009 net sales were $10.3 billion, an increase of 5% compared to last year. Year-to-date operating earnings were $2.4 billion compared with $2.8 billion a year ago. Year-to-date SG&A expenses were $321.4 million compared with $323.8 million in fiscal 2008. A foreign currency transaction loss of $131.8 million was recorded in fiscal 2009, compared to a loss of $57.5 million a year ago. Unrealized mark-to-market derivative losses, primarily on natural gas contracts, included in cost of goods sold, totaled $134.6 million compared to gains of $30.9 million the prior year. Equity earnings in non-consolidated entities decreased year-to-date to $100.1 million from $124.0 million a year ago. The Company's results also include a $673.4 million gain on the sale of Mosaic's interest in Saskferco. Net income for fiscal 2009 was a record $2.4 billion compared to $2.1 billion for the prior year.

Outlook

The economies of many developing countries continue to grow at a moderate pace. From this growth, a new middle class is emerging that has the financial wherewithal to improve their diets. This long-term trend, along with steady global population increases, translates into continued demand for crop nutrients.

Following the dramatic challenges of fiscal 2009 in the global crop nutrients market, customer confidence is returning, pipeline inventories have been drawn down and soil nutrients need to be replenished - all of which point to recovering crop nutrient markets in fiscal 2010.

In the potash market, recent transactions should increase buyer confidence and drive higher sales volumes. Profit margins will decline due to lower prices but remain at historically attractive levels. In the phosphate market, demand is rebounding in major markets around the world and sales volumes are improving. Profit margins are well below levels recorded early last fiscal year but are improving from low levels.

"Our optimism about the future of our business is unwavering," said Jim Prokopanko, Mosaic's President and Chief Executive Officer. "While near-term uncertainties remain, we have emerged from the market turmoil of the past year as a stronger competitor and are poised to capitalize on the positive trends we foresee in the potash and phosphates markets."

Financial Guidance

Sales volumes for the Phosphates segment are expected to range from 1.9 to 2.2 million tonnes for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Mosaic's realized DAP price, FOB plant, for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 is estimated to be $255 to $295 per tonne.

Mosaic is not providing financial guidance on potash sales volumes or MOP selling price until market conditions normalize.

Capital spending for fiscal 2010 will grow to a range of $1.0 billion to $1.2 billion. Mosaic is executing its multi-year potash expansion plan as well as investing substantial funds to further improve operating performance of its existing plants and mines.

SG&A is estimated to range from $350 million to $370 million in fiscal 2010 and the effective income tax rate is estimated in the low to mid 30% range for the year.
