Read MoreHide Full Article
The Mosaic Company (MOS - Free Report) recently announced sales volumes and revenues for November 2021 across all businesses.
The Potash segment recorded sales volume of 644,000 tons in November, down 13.7% from 746,000 tons in the year-ago period. Sales revenues were $271 million, up around 67.3% from $162 million in the prior-year period.
The Mosaic Fertilizantes segment’s sales volume rose 5.3% to 731,000 tons from 694,000 tons last year. Sales revenues increased around 102.1% to $489 million from $242 million recorded last year.
The Phosphates segment recorded sales volume of 576,000 tons, down around 19.9% from 719,000 tons a year ago. Sales revenues in the segment were $465 million, up around 49% from $312 million a year ago.
Mosaic expects Phosphates finished product sales volume in the band of 1.8-1.9 million tons for the fourth quarter. Phosphates revenues in November were favorably impacted by low-margin intercompany sulfur sales. Its previous outlook for fourth-quarter average sales prices increasing in the range of $55-$65 per ton from third-quarter levels remains unchanged.
In the Potash segment, Mosaic continues to expect fourth-quarter sales volume of 2-2.1 million tons. The sequential potash price increase in the fourth quarter over the third-quarter average realized prices is projected to be at the bottom end of its guidance of $110-$130 per ton. Port congestion in Brazil has shifted expected recognition of higher-priced sales ton to the first quarter of 2022, the company noted.
Shares of Mosaic have soared 69% in the past year compared with a 32.1% rally of the industry.
