Intrepid Potash Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2018 Results

30.10.2018  |  Globenewswire Europe
DENVER, October 30, 2018 - Intrepid Potash Inc. (Intrepid) (NYSE:IPI) today reported its results for the third quarter of 2018.

Key Q3 Takeaways

·         Net income of $3.4 million, or $0.03 per share, a $5.3 million increase compared to prior year third quarter net loss of $1.9 million, or $0.02 per share.
·         Cash flow from operations of $14.8 million, a $12.2 million increase compared to the prior year third quarter.
·        Total sales of $36.5 million, a $2.5 million increase compared to the prior year third quarter.
·        Higher average net realized sales prices per ton(1) and increased by-product sales drove improvements in potash and Trio® segment gross margins of $2.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively, compared to the prior year third quarter.
·        Water business delivers record quarter with $9.7 million in cash received.

"Higher realized prices for both potash and Trio®, increased by-product sales, and another quarter of solid demand for water added meaningfully to the bottom line in the third quarter," said Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid's Executive Chairman, President and CEO. "Pricing momentum in the domestic agricultural markets continues with increases for potash and Trio® announced in early October. These price increases followed a summer fill that saw good subscription and a strong evaporation season at our potash facilities. Water sales remained steady, with total deliveries of $4.7 million. We received a record $9.7 million in cash during the quarter relating to water, bringing our year-to-date total to $23.1 million, which includes $9.1 million in contract liabilities, representing cash received for future water deliveries. As a result, we are raising the low end of our previous guidance and now expect $28 million to $35 million in cash from water this year. Led by the price increases in our potash and Trio® segments, we believe Intrepid is set up well for the fourth quarter and early 2019."

Consolidated Results

Intrepid generated third quarter net income of $3.4 million, or $0.03 per share, resulting in year-to-date net income of $4.1 million, or $0.03 per share. Consolidated gross margin increased to $9.0 million and $23.4 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year. Increased net income and gross margin were the result of increased water and by-product sales, improvement in the average net realized sales price per ton of potash, and reduced lower-of-cost-or-market adjustments in the Trio® segment.

Cash provided by operating activities increased year over year to $14.8 million and $52.9 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, respectively. Increases were driven by increased water sales, payments received under a prearranged water commitment, and reduced interest expense.

Segment Highlights

Potash

    Three Months Ended September 30,   Nine Months Ended September 30,
    2018   2017   2018   2017
    (in thousands, except per ton data)
Potash sales   $ 22,170     $ 20,711     $ 77,416     $ 75,745  
Potash gross margin   $ 7,089     $ 5,027     $ 18,337     $ 11,371  
                 
Potash production volume (in tons)   60     56     230     237  
Potash sales volume (in tons)   74     77     269     281  
                 
Average potash net realized sales price per ton(1)   $ 258     $ 232     $ 251     $ 236  

Average net realized sales price per ton increased 11% and 6% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, respectively, which combined with increases in by-product sales, drove year-over-year improvements in gross margin. Sales decreased slightly compared to the prior year due to normal variations in the timing of sales to agricultural customers.

Potash production volumes during the quarter were similar to prior year with the solar facilities beginning production midway through the third quarter of 2018.

Trio®

    Three Months Ended September 30,   Nine Months Ended September 30,
    2018   2017   2018   2017
    (in thousands, except per ton data)
Trio® sales   $ 10,320     $ 11,349     $ 50,402     $ 48,557  
Trio® gross deficit   $ (178 )   $ (1,235 )   $ (4,487 )   $ (6,738 )
                 
Trio® production volume (in tons)   60     51     162     192  
Trio® sales volume (in tons)   36     43     182     178  
                 
Average Trio® net realized sales price per ton(1)   $ 200     $ 187     $ 194     $ 197  

Production volumes increased 18% compared to the third quarter of the prior year as improvements to the langbeinite plant increased overall recovery rates. Year to date production volumes remained lower than the previous year due to the reduced operating schedule.

Sales volume decreased slightly during the third quarter of 2018 as inclement weather delayed some shipments into the fourth quarter of 2018 and Intrepid continued its price-over-volume strategy in the international market.

Gross deficit improved to $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2018 as previous price increases and a focus on more profitable markets drove an increase in average net realized sales price per ton compared to the prior year.

Liquidity

Cash provided by operations was $14.8 million during the third quarter of 2018 and cash spent on capital investments was $3.8 million. As of September 30, 2018, Intrepid had $37.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $25.7 million available to borrow under its credit facility.

INTREPID POTASH, INC.
UNAUDITED NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 AND 2017
(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 net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) 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 Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share

Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share are calculated as net income (loss) or income (loss) 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.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income (Loss):

  Three Months Ended September 30,   Nine Months Ended September 30,
  2018   2017   2018   2017

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) $ 3,350     $ (1,400 )   $ 4,149     $ (17,434 )

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) per Share to Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Share:

  Three Months Ended September 30,   Nine Months Ended September 30,
  2018   2017   2018   2017
Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share $ 0.03     $ (0.02 )   $ 0.03     $ (0.19 )

  Total adjustments -     -     -     0.04  
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share $ 0.03     $ (0.02 )   $ 0.03     $ (0.15 )

(1) Intrepid recorded restructuring expense of $0.3 million during the first nine months of 2017, related to a scheduling change at its East facility.

(2) During the third quarter of 2017, Intrepid made an early repayment of $6.0 million of principal on its senior notes. As a result, Intrepid wrote off a portion of the financing fees that had previously been capitalized related to the senior notes. The write-off of deferred financing fees is reflected in Intrepid's financial statements as interest expense.

(3) During the third quarter of 2017, Intrepid made an early repayment of principal on its senior notes. The payment totaled $6.4 million, of which $0.4 million related to an additional make-whole payment.

(4) Due to Intrepid's valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset, this calculation assumes a 0% effective tax rate.


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 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.

(1) Intrepid recorded restructuring expense of $0.3 million during the first nine months of 2017, related to a scheduling change at its East facility.


Average Net Realized Sales Price per Ton

Average net realized sales price per ton is calculated as sales, less freight costs, divided by the number of tons sold in the period. Intrepid considers average net realized sales price per ton to be useful because it shows 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, many of the 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 sales and pricing trends.
