• Series Cap of $150 million limits purchases of 2029 Notes
• Total Consideration per $1,000 ranges from $993.31 to $1,037.99, plus accrued interest

Negative

• 2029 Notes subject to $150 million Series Cap and potential proration

News Explained

The conditional $1.4 billion maximum cash tender exceeds Mosaic’s $294 million cash balance reported June 30, 2026.

Mosaic has priced its cash offers for outstanding notes, but the transaction remains an offer rather than a completed repurchase: acceptance is still subject to stated conditions, and the company may delay, alter or terminate the offers.

The potential cash purchase is capped at $1.4 billion, compared with $294 million of cash and equivalents reported for June 30, 2026; the disclosure therefore establishes a possible large cash deployment relative to that reported balance, not a completed outflow.

Key Terms

tender cap, proration, reference yield, accrued coupon payment

4 terms

tender cap financial

"up to an aggregate purchase price ... of $1,400,000,000 (the "Tender Cap")"

A tender cap is the maximum number of shares or maximum total value a buyer will accept in a tender offer, essentially a limit on how much stock the bidder is willing to buy. It matters to investors because if more shares are tendered than the cap allows, the buyer will scale back purchases proportionally, like selling a fixed number of tickets when demand is higher than supply, which affects how many shares each holder can sell and the likely outcome of the offer.

proration financial

"The 2029 Notes may be subject to proration"

Proration is the method of dividing a limited quantity—such as shares in an offering, dividends, or rights—among claimants when demand exceeds supply, so each participant receives a proportional slice rather than the full amount requested. It matters to investors because proration determines how many shares or what portion of a payout they actually receive, which affects portfolio size, cash needs, and the expected return; think of it as splitting a pie fairly when more people want a piece than there are slices.

reference yield financial

"The "Total Consideration" ... is based on the applicable Fixed Spread ... plus the Reference Yield"

The reference yield is the standard rate of return on a debt security, like a government bond, that investors expect to earn if they buy it at its current price. It acts like a benchmark, helping investors compare different bonds and decide if they are worth buying, much like checking the interest rate on a savings account to see how much you will earn over time.

accrued coupon payment financial

"the payment thereof, the "Accrued Coupon Payment""

An accrued coupon payment is the interest earned on a bond that has accumulated since the last payment date but has not yet been paid to the investor. Think of it like interest building up in a savings account that will be paid out later; it reflects the amount the investor is owed for holding the bond during that period. This figure matters because it helps accurately determine the bond’s current value and the investor’s true earnings.

TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Mosaic Company (NYSE: MOS) ("Mosaic") today announced the Reference Yield and Total Consideration (as set forth in the table below) to be paid in connection with its previously announced cash tender offers (collectively, the "Offers") to purchase the outstanding notes described below, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated August 10, 2026 (the "Offer to Purchase").

The Notes offered to be purchased in the Offers, in the order of acceptance priority, are the 4.050% Senior Notes due 2027 (the "2027 Notes"); 7.30% Debentures due 2028 (the "2028 Debentures"); 5.375% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes") and 4.350% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes" and together with the 2027 Notes, 2028 Debentures and 2028 Notes, the "Notes" and each a "Series of Notes") for the consideration described below, up to an aggregate purchase price, excluding the Accrued Coupon Payment (as defined below), of $1,400,000,000 (the "Tender Cap") subject to proration and the application of the Acceptance Priority Levels set forth in the table below and as further set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the terms and conditions, including, among others, a $150,000,000 cap on the aggregate consideration to be paid to purchase the 2029 Notes pursuant to the Offers (the "Series Cap") and the Acceptance Priority Procedures set forth in the Offer to Purchase. The 2029 Notes may be subject to proration both due to the Acceptance Priority Procedures and the Series Cap such that Mosaic will only accept for purchase the 2029 Notes for aggregate consideration up to the Series Cap. Subject to applicable law, Mosaic may, but is under no obligation to, eliminate, increase or decrease the Tender Cap and/or the Series Cap at any time prior to the "Expiration Date" of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 14, 2026 (unless extended or earlier terminated by Mosaic with respect to any Offer). In the event proration is required with respect to a Series of Notes, Mosaic will multiply the principal amount of each valid tender of such Series of Notes by the applicable proration rate and round the resulting amount down to the nearest integral multiple of the Minimum Denomination, in order to determine the principal amount of such tender that will be accepted pursuant to the applicable Offer. The excess principal amount of Notes not accepted from the tendering Holders will be promptly returned to such Holders, and if this excess principal amount of Notes is less than $1,000, Mosaic may either accept or reject all such tendering Holders' validly tendered Notes in its sole discretion. Additionally, Mosaic may increase the amount of Notes accepted for payment in the Offers by no more than 2% of the outstanding Notes of the applicable Series, as further described in the Acceptance Priority Procedures set forth below, without amending or extending the Offer. The Offer to Purchase and any related documents are referred to herein collectively as the "Tender Offer Documents".  Capitalized terms used but not defined in this press release have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

Certain information regarding the Notes and the pricing for the Offers is set forth in the table below.
