Intrepid Potash Announces Appointment of Barth Whitham as Chair of the Board; Initiates Search for New Chief Executive Officer

10.07.2024  |  Business Wire

Bob Jornayvaz Remains on Extended Medical Leave of Absence

CFO Matt Preston Continues to Serve as Acting Principal Executive Officer

Company Provides Update on Second Quarter 2024 Outlook

Intrepid Potash Inc. ("Intrepid," "we," "the Company," or "our") (NYSE:IPI) today announced the Board of Directors ("the Board") of Intrepid has elected Barth Whitham, formerly Lead Independent Director, as its Chair. The Board has also initiated a search process to identify a successor for Intrepid's Chief Executive Officer, Bob Jornayvaz. During this process, Intrepid's Chief Financial Officer, Matt Preston, will continue to serve as acting principal executive officer, working closely with the rest of the Company's management team and Board. As previously announced, Mr. Jornayvaz was injured in an accident while playing in the U.S. Open Polo Championship and remains on extended medical leave of absence.

"We wish Bob well as he continues his recovery, however we recognize that it is unlikely that he will return to his CEO role," said Mr. Whitham. "The Board has therefore determined it is in the best interest of the Company to initiate a search for a new CEO to continue to execute our strategic plan. In the interim, we have full confidence in Matt and the rest of the management team to continue to lead Intrepid during this process."

The Board also appointed Intrepid Director Hugh Harvey as Chair of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Jornayvaz remains a Director.

An Intrepid Director since 2008, Mr. Whitham has over 30 years of management and board experience in the energy, banking and extractive resources industries. Since 2004, he has served as President and CEO and member of the board of directors of Enduring Resources LLC, and serves on the boards of directors of Ensign Energy Services Inc. and Jonah Energy LLC.

Intrepid expects its second quarter 2024 potash and Trio® sales volumes to meet or exceed the upper end of its outlook, as previously announced during its first quarter 2024 earnings call on May 9, 2024. Intrepid now expects second quarter 2024 potash sales volumes of approximately 55,000 tons at an average net realized sales price of $405 per ton and second quarter 2024 Trio® sales volumes of approximately 63,000 tons at an average net realized sales price of $314 per ton. Full-year 2024 potash production remains on track to exceed prior year results by approximately 15%.
