DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Intrepid Potash, Inc. ("Intrepid", "the Company", "we", "us", or "our") (NYSE:IPI) today reported its results for the first quarter of 2025.

First Quarter Highlights & Management Commentary

Improving potash and Trio® unit economics, strong Trio® pricing, and our highest quarterly sales volumes since 2016 led to strong first quarter 2025 results, highlighted by:

  • Total sales of $97.8 million;
  • Net income of $4.6 million, or $0.35 per diluted share; and
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $16.6 million.

Kevin Crutchfield, Intrepid's Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Since joining the Company, I've been very impressed with the skill, dedication, and quality of work of our employees at all locations and I want to thank them for their hard work in delivering strong safety, operational, and financial results in my first full quarter with Intrepid.

Our first quarter was highlighted by solid performance in potash and Trio®, with our combined total sales volumes of 213 thousand tons being our highest quarterly sales volume since the first quarter of 2016. Supported by strong demand and improving agricultural commodity prices, fertilizer prices continued to strengthen during the quarter with Midwest warehouse prices increasing by $55/ton for potash and our posted price for Trio® increasing $40/ton following the January winter-fill programs. Our improving production profile and the associated positive impact to our unit economics helped drive solid segment gross margins, and Trio® was again the standout performer, with gross margin of $10.4 million. In the first quarter, our consolidated adjusted EBITDA(1) of $16.6 million was roughly double the same prior year figure.

While there's been quite a bit of uncertainty in the broader markets in recent weeks, we believe Intrepid is well-positioned for the remainder of the year. Potash pricing continues to find support owing to strong global potash demand and balanced supply; key crop futures have been steady and are currently trading at higher levels compared to early-March; and our debt-free balance sheet and strong liquidity position put us in a position of strength."

*First quarter 2024 cash flow from operations of $41.5 million includes a $45 million payment pursuant to the terms of the Third Amendment to the Cooperative Development Agreement between Intrepid and XTO.

Liquidity

  • As of May 2, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $66 million and we had no outstanding borrowings on our $150 million revolving credit facility that matures in August 2027.

Capital Expenditures

  • Our capital expenditures were $8.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. We still expect our 2025 capital expenditures will be in the range of $36 to $42 million, with the majority of this being sustaining capital, including the HB AMAX Cavern sample well, described below.

Project & Operational Updates

  • HB Solar Solution Mine in Carlsbad, New Mexico
    • HB AMAX Cavern: We continue to work to obtain the necessary permits to drill a sample well into the AMAX Cavern to measure its brine chemistry. AMAX is the largest cavern in the HB system and is expected to become an expansion area to the original HB caverns, which have been in service for over ten years.
    • We expect to finish the permitting process to drill the sample well in the second quarter of 2025 with construction and commissioning complete in July. The capital investment is estimated at approximately $4.5 million, with the well design also meeting the specifications needed to serve as a future extraction well.

In the first quarter of 2025, our potash segment sales increased $6.0 million compared to the same prior year period. This was primarily driven by a 39% increase in our potash sales volumes, offset by a 21% decrease in our average net realized sales price per ton. Potash segment byproduct sales increased $1.1 million compared to the same prior year period due to increased magnesium chloride and brine sales.

Our potash sales volumes increased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same prior year period, as we had more tons available to sell owing to the improved production rates in 2024. In the first quarter of 2025, our potash production of 93 thousand tons was approximately 7% higher than the 87 thousand tons we produced in the same prior year period.

In the first quarter of 2025, our potash segment cost of goods sold ("COGS") per ton totaled $313 per ton, which represents a 10% improvement from $349 per ton in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to an increase in production during 2024.

Our segment gross margin decreased by $3.1 million compared to the same prior year period, primarily driven by the lower average net realized sales price, partially offset by higher sales volumes and improving COGS per ton.

In the first quarter of 2025, Trio® segment sales increased 37% compared to the same prior year period, primarily driven by a $13.4 million increase in Trio® sales. Trio® sales increased due to a 21% increase in tons sold and a 15% increase in our average net realized sales price per ton.

Our Trio® sales volumes and pricing increased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same prior year period as we experienced strong in-season demand owing to a tight domestic sulfate market and general strength in broader potash market fundamentals. Moreover, we had more tons available to sell owing to the higher volumes we produced in 2024 and in the first quarter of 2025, where our 63 thousand tons of production was 17% higher than the same prior year period.

In the first quarter of 2025, our Trio® segment COGS per ton totaled $235 per ton, which represents a 22% improvement from $300 per ton in the first quarter of 2024.

Our Trio® segment generated gross margin of $10.4 million in the first quarter of 2025, which compares to a gross deficit of $1.1 million in the same prior year period, with the increase primarily attributable to the higher sales volumes and average net realized sales price, as well as an improvement in our Trio® segment COGS per ton.

In the first quarter of 2025, our oilfield solutions segment sales decreased $0.9 million compared to the same prior year period, due to a $0.7 million decrease in water sales and a $0.3 million decrease in surface use and easement sales. Our water sales decreased due to reduced oilfield activity on and around Intrepid South in the first quarter of 2025. Surface use and easement sales fluctuate based on the timing of recognizing revenue from the various performance obligations contained in the underlying agreements.

Compared to the same prior year period, in the first quarter of 2025, our COGS decreased by $0.6 million, primarily due to decreased water sales. Our gross margin decreased by $0.3 million, due to the factors discussed above.

Notes

1 Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) and average net realized sales price per ton are non-GAAP financial measures. See the non-GAAP reconciliations set forth later in this press release for additional information.

Unless expressly stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to tons in this press release refer to short tons. One short ton equals 2,000 pounds. One metric tonne, which many international competitors use, equals 1,000 kilograms or 2,204.62 pounds.

UNAUDITED NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 AND 2024
(In thousands)

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 net 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.

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.
