CF Industries Holdings, Inc. Reports Full Year 2025 Net Earnings of $1.46 Billion, Adjusted EBITDA of $2.89 Billion

Key Terms

ebitda financial

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.

adjusted ebitda financial

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

free cash flow financial

Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.

autothermal reforming technical

Autothermal reforming is an industrial process that converts hydrocarbons (like natural gas) into a hydrogen-rich gas by combining a small combustion (heat-producing) step with a steam-driven chemical reaction so the process sustains its own temperature. For investors, it matters because it is a compact, flexible way to produce hydrogen or synthesis gas with potential cost, efficiency and emissions advantages compared with other methods—similar to using a single appliance that both heats and steams to cook more efficiently.

carbon capture and sequestration technical

Carbon capture and sequestration is a process that captures carbon dioxide emissions from sources like power plants or industrial facilities and stores them underground to prevent them from entering the atmosphere. This technology helps reduce greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change, which can influence the long-term stability of energy and environmental markets. For investors, it represents a way to support cleaner energy solutions and potentially benefit from emerging industries focused on sustainable practices.

senior notes financial

Senior notes are a type of loan that a company borrows from investors, promising to pay it back with interest. They are called "senior" because in case the company faces financial trouble, these lenders are paid back before others. This makes senior notes safer for investors compared to other types of loans or bonds.

make-whole amount financial

A make-whole amount is the cash payment a borrower must give investors when it pays off a bond or loan early, designed to compensate them for lost future interest. Think of it like an early-termination fee that equals the current value of the remaining scheduled payments (often calculated using a set interest rate) so investors are put “made whole”; it matters because it changes how costly early refinancing is and affects bond values and investor returns.

section 45q regulatory

Section 45Q is a U.S. federal tax credit that pays projects for capturing and permanently storing or using carbon dioxide instead of releasing it into the atmosphere. For investors, it acts like a per‑unit subsidy that improves the economics and cash flow of carbon‑capture, clean‑energy, and industrial projects—similar to getting paid for diverting waste from a landfill—making capital investment and valuation less risky and more attractive.

Operations Overview

The Company’s full year 2025 recordable incident rate was 0.26 incidents per 200,000 work hours.

Gross ammonia production for the full year and fourth quarter of 2025 was approximately 10.1 million and 2.5 million tons, respectively, compared to 9.8 million and 2.6 million tons in the full year and fourth quarter, respectively, of 2024.

The Company expects gross ammonia production in 2026 to be approximately 9.5 million tons due to the ongoing outage at the Yazoo City, Mississippi, Complex as a result of an incident that occurred in late 2025. Management does not expect production to resume at the Yazoo City Complex until the fourth quarter of 2026 at the earliest based on time required for fabrication and delivery of certain required equipment.

Financial Results Overview

Full year 2025 Financial Results

For the full year 2025, net earnings attributable to common stockholders were $1.46 billion, or $8.97 per diluted share, EBITDA was $2.78 billion, and adjusted EBITDA was $2.89 billion. These results compare to full year 2024 net earnings attributable to common stockholders of $1.22 billion, or $6.74 per diluted share, EBITDA of $2.33 billion, and adjusted EBITDA of $2.28 billion.

Net sales for the full year of 2025 were $7.08 billion compared to $5.94 billion for 2024. Average selling prices for 2025 were higher for all segments than in 2024 due to strong global nitrogen demand and supply disruptions from geopolitical issues and natural gas availability. Sales volumes for 2025 approximated 2024.

Cost of sales for the full year 2025 was higher compared to 2024 due primarily to higher realized natural gas costs.

The average cost of natural gas, including the impact of realized derivatives, reflected in the Company’s cost of sales was $3.31 per MMBtu in 2025 compared to the average cost of natural gas in cost of sales of $2.40 per MMBtu in 2024.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results

For the fourth quarter of 2025, net earnings attributable to common stockholders were $404 million, or $2.59 per diluted share, EBITDA was $731 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $821 million. These results compare to fourth quarter of 2024 net earnings attributable to common stockholders of $328 million, or $1.89 per diluted share, EBITDA of $582 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $562 million.

Net sales in the fourth quarter of 2025 were $1.87 billion compared to $1.52 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. Average selling prices were higher for all segments in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 due to strong global nitrogen demand and supply disruptions from geopolitical issues. Sales volumes were lower in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 due primarily to lower granular urea and ammonium nitrate (AN) sales.

Cost of sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 was higher compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 due primarily to higher realized natural gas costs.

The average cost of natural gas, including the impact of realized derivatives, reflected in the Company’s cost of sales was $3.20 per MMBtu in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the average cost of natural gas in cost of sales of $2.43 per MMBtu in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Asset Impairments

In the fourth quarter of 2025, CF Industries recorded two asset impairments totaling $76 million.

CF Industries recorded a $51 million asset impairment related to its Donaldsonville Complex electrolyzer project. Commissioning of the 20-megawatt alkaline water electrolysis plant to produce hydrogen for the production of low-carbon ammonia was suspended in the fourth quarter of 2024. In December 2025, upon completion of a review of the incremental investment and operating costs necessary to complete and operate the project, management concluded such an investment would not result in an acceptable return. As a result, management made the decision not to make the incremental investment to the electrolyzer project in favor of the higher return profile from low-carbon ammonia production with carbon capture and sequestration technologies.

The Company also recorded a $25 million asset impairment due to the November 5, 2025, incident at the Yazoo City Complex. The impairment is based on estimates and assumptions of a preliminary review of the incident’s impact on machinery and equipment in its AN upgrade area.

Capital Management

On April 8, 2025, CF Industries announced that it formed a joint venture (Blue Point joint venture) with JERA Co., Inc. (JERA) and Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (Mitsui) for the construction, production and offtake of low-carbon ammonia. CF Industries holds 40% ownership, JERA holds 35% ownership, and Mitsui holds 25% ownership in the joint venture, with the joint venture to be funded by the equity partners according to their ownership percentage. At formation, JERA had a conditional option that, if the specified condition were met, JERA could reduce its ownership percentage below 35% but not lower than 20%. CF Industries would have had the right and obligation to increase its ownership by the same amount had JERA opted to reduce its ownership. The option expired and is no longer exercisable.

CF Industries consolidates the Blue Point joint venture in its consolidated financial statements, with the combined 60% interest owned by JERA and Mitsui recorded as noncontrolling interests. CF Industries’ consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2025 included capital contributions from the joint venture equity partners, the cash held by the joint venture and the capital expenditures of the joint venture.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of December 31, 2025, CF Industries had cash and cash equivalents of $1.98 billion, of which $130 million was held by the Blue Point joint venture.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter and full year 2025 were $226 million and $950 million, respectively, of which $94 million and $307 million was attributable to the Blue Point joint venture in the fourth quarter and full year 2025, respectively. For the full year 2025, CF Industries’ capital expenditures, excluding the portion of capital expenditures funded by JERA and Mitsui, were $766 million.

	Three months ended December 31, 2025			Full year ended December 31, 2025
	(in millions)
Total Capital Expenditures	$	226		$	950
CF Industries Existing Operations (100% attributable to CF Industries)		120			620
Total Blue Point Joint Venture (40% attributable to CF Industries)		94			307
Blue Point Common Facilities (100% attributable to CF Industries)		7			9
Capitalized Interest		5			14

Reflecting the consolidation of the Blue Point joint venture into CF Industries’ financial statements, management projects capital expenditures for full year 2026 will be approximately $1.3 billion, of which approximately $550 million is related to activities within the Company’s existing network and approximately $600 million is related to total estimated capital expenditures in 2026 of the Blue Point joint venture, which will be funded by each joint venture partner according to their ownership percentage. The Company expects to have approximately $150 million in capital expenditures in 2026 related to its wholly owned Blue Point common facilities. For the full year, management projects capital expenditures for CF Industries, excluding the portion of capital expenditures funded by JERA and Mitsui, to be approximately $950 million.

Additionally, the Company expects to record as capital expenditures approximately $40 million of capitalized interest. Interest expense will be reduced by a corresponding amount.

Share Repurchase Programs

The Company repurchased 16.6 million shares for $1.34 billion during 2025, which includes the repurchase of 4.1 million shares for $340 million during the fourth quarter of 2025.

Since CF Industries commenced its current $2 billion share repurchase program in October 2025, the Company has repurchased 3.4 million shares for approximately $278 million. As of December 31, 2025, approximately $1.7 billion remains under the program, which expires in December 2029.

Debt Refinancing

On November 26, 2025, CF Industries, Inc., the direct subsidiary of CF Industries Holdings, Inc., completed the public offering of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.300% Senior Notes due 2035. On December 26, 2025, CF Industries, Inc. redeemed in full all of the $750 million outstanding principal amount of its 4.500% Senior Secured Notes due December 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), in accordance with the optional redemption provisions of the indenture governing the 2026 Notes. The total amount for the redemption of the 2026 Notes was $756 million, including payment of a make-whole amount and accrued interest.

CHS Inc. Distribution

On January 30, 2026, the Board of Managers of CF Industries Nitrogen, LLC (CFN) approved a semi-annual distribution payment to CHS Inc. (CHS) of $201 million for the distribution period ended December 31, 2025. The distribution was paid on January 30, 2026. Distributions to CHS pertaining to 2025 distribution periods were approximately $304 million.

Nitrogen Market Outlook

The second half of 2025 saw global nitrogen values remain supported due to constrained ammonia supply availability from global production outages and natural gas availability in Trinidad, strong urea import demand led by India and Brazil, limited urea exports from China, and reduced supply from Iran on geopolitical and natural gas availability-related curtailments.

In the near-term, management expects the global nitrogen supply-demand balance to remain constructive due to:

• Resilient global nitrogen demand: Management expects nitrogen demand in North America to be positive through the spring 2026 application season. Based on the fall 2025 ammonia application season and strong corn demand, the Company expects another year of high planted acres of corn in the United States in 2026. Management believes that nitrogen channel inventory remains lower than historical averages. Globally, Brazil and India are expected to remain the world’s largest importers of urea driven by increased domestic demand.
• Continued global supply constraints: Management expects continued tight supply conditions for upgraded nitrogen products with loosening conditions for ammonia. Nitrogen exports from Russia, while still above pre-war levels, continue to face interrupted supply and export flows due to the ongoing conflict in the region. Additionally, chronic natural gas availability issues in Trinidad and Iran continue to limit production and Chinese urea exports appear to be available only on a seasonal basis. New North American ammonia production is expected to reach commercial rates in 2026, increasing traded supply available globally.
• Challenging economics for European nitrogen producers: Approximately 20% of ammonia capacity and 25% of urea capacity in Europe was curtailed as of December 2025 as producers in the region face margins that are tight to negative due to high natural gas costs. The introduction of the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism and beginning of the European Union Emissions Trading System exemption phase out has introduced additional uncertainty. Demand for low-carbon ammonia and low-carbon nitrogen upgrades is expected to rise in response as customers look to build a low-carbon nitrogen supply chain.

Over the near- and medium-term, meaningful energy cost differentials between North American producers and high-cost producers in Europe and Asia are expected to persist. As a result, the Company believes the global nitrogen cost structure will remain supportive of strong margin opportunities for low-cost North American producers.

Longer-term, management expects the global nitrogen supply-demand balance to tighten as global nitrogen capacity under construction is not projected to keep pace with expected global nitrogen demand growth over the next four years of approximately 1.5% per year for traditional applications and new demand growth for clean energy applications.

Strategic Initiatives Update

Blue Point Joint Venture with JERA and Mitsui

The Blue Point joint venture will construct at CF Industries’ Blue Point Complex in Modeste, Louisiana, an autothermal reforming ammonia production facility with a carbon dioxide (CO₂) dehydration and compression unit to prepare captured CO₂ for transportation and sequestration. The project execution team has been assembled and procurement of long lead equipment items is largely complete. Detailed engineering activities along with the regulatory permitting process are progressing to support the start of facility civil construction in 2026.

In December 2025, both JERA and Mitsui were certified as a Supplier of Low-Carbon Hydrogen and its Derivatives by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The certification was granted under the “Support Focusing on the Price Gap” Scheme established in accordance with the Hydrogen Society Promotion Act. The system provides support focusing on the price gap between existing raw materials and fossil fuels, and low-carbon hydrogen and derivatives.

Yazoo City, MS, Carbon Capture and Sequestration Project

CF Industries signed a definitive commercial agreement in July 2024 with ExxonMobil for the transport and sequestration in permanent geologic storage of up to 500,000 metric tons of CO₂ annually from the Company’s Yazoo City, Mississippi, Complex. CF Industries will invest approximately $100 million into its Yazoo City Complex to build a CO₂ dehydration and compression unit to enable up to 500,000 metric tons of CO₂ captured from the ammonia production process per year to be transported and stored. The Company continues to order long lead equipment and progress through detailed engineering to achieve a 2028 startup. CF Industries expects the project to qualify for tax credits under Section 45Q of the Internal Revenue Code, which provides a credit per metric ton of CO₂ sequestered.

Comparison of 2025 to 2024:

• Granular urea sales volumes for 2025 were lower than 2024 due to lower supply availability from product mix favoring UAN production and lower starting inventory.
• Granular urea average selling prices increased for 2025 compared to 2024 due to strong global nitrogen demand and supply disruptions from geopolitical issues and natural gas availability.
• Granular urea adjusted gross margin per ton increased for 2025 compared to 2024 due primarily to higher average selling prices partially offset by higher realized natural gas costs.

UAN Segment

CF Industries’ UAN segment produces urea ammonium nitrate solution (UAN). UAN is a liquid product with nitrogen content that typically ranges from 28 percent to 32 percent and is produced by combining urea and ammonium nitrate in solution.

Comparison of 2025 to 2024:

• UAN sales volumes for 2025 increased compared to 2024 sales volumes due to greater supply availability from product mix favoring UAN production.
• UAN average selling prices increased for 2025 compared to 2024 due to strong global nitrogen demand and supply disruptions from geopolitical issues and natural gas availability.
• UAN adjusted gross margin per ton increased for 2025 compared to 2024 due primarily to higher average selling prices partially offset by higher realized natural gas costs.

AN Segment

CF Industries’ AN segment produces ammonium nitrate (AN). AN is used as a nitrogen fertilizer with nitrogen content between 29 percent to 35 percent, and is also used extensively by the commercial explosives industry as a component of explosives.

Comparison of 2025 to 2024:

• AN sales volumes were lower for 2025 compared to 2024 due primarily to the loss of production at the Company’s Yazoo City, Mississippi, Complex following an incident in November 2025.
• AN average selling prices increased for 2025 compared to 2024 due to strong global nitrogen demand and supply disruptions from geopolitical issues and natural gas availability.
• AN adjusted gross margin per ton increased for 2025 compared to 2024 due primarily to higher average selling prices partially offset by costs related to the incident in November 2025 at the Company’s Yazoo City, Mississippi, Complex and higher realized natural gas costs.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that EBITDA, EBITDA per ton, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per ton, free cash flow, and, on a segment basis, adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin as a percent of net sales and adjusted gross margin per product ton and per nutrient ton, which are non-GAAP financial measures, provide additional meaningful information regarding the Company’s performance and financial strength. Management uses these measures, and believes they are useful to investors, as supplemental financial measures in the comparison of year-over-year performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, EBITDA, EBITDA per ton, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per ton, free cash flow, adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin as a percent of net sales and adjusted gross margin per product ton and per nutrient ton, included in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of EBITDA, EBITDA per ton, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per ton, and free cash flow to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables accompanying this release under “CF Industries Holdings, Inc.-Selected Financial Information-Non-GAAP Disclosure Items.” Reconciliations of adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin as a percent of net sales and adjusted gross margin per product ton and per nutrient ton to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in the segment tables included in this release.

NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE ITEMS

Reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities (GAAP measure) to free cash flow (non-GAAP measure):

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, as stated in the consolidated statements of cash flows, reduced by capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interests plus contributions from noncontrolling interests. The Company has presented free cash flow because management uses this measure and believes it is useful to investors, as an indication of the strength of the Company and its ability to generate cash and to evaluate the Company’s cash generation ability relative to its industry competitors. It should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures.

NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE ITEMS (CONTINUED)

Reconciliation of net earnings attributable to common stockholders and net earnings attributable to common stockholders per ton (GAAP measures) to EBITDA, EBITDA per ton, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA per ton (non-GAAP measures), as applicable:

EBITDA is defined as net earnings attributable to common stockholders plus interest expense (income)—net, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Other adjustments include the elimination of the portion of interest income (expense)—net and the portion of depreciation and amortization that are included in noncontrolling interests, and loan fee amortization that is included in both interest and amortization.

The Company has presented EBITDA and EBITDA per ton because management uses these measures to track performance and believes that they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted with the selected items as summarized in the table below. The Company has presented adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA per ton because management uses these measures, and believes they are useful to investors, as supplemental financial measures in the comparison of year-over-year performance.
