Intrepid Potash Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2019 Results
![Intrepid Potash Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2019 Results](https://www.minenportal.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
Key Takeaways for Q2 2019
- Net income of $5.6 million, or $0.04 per share, a $6.6 million increase compared to prior year second quarter net loss of $1.0 million, or $(0.01) per share.
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $14.9 million.
- Cash flow from operations of $23.6 million.
- Potash, Trio®, and oilfield solutions segment gross margins of $8.2 million, $1.5 million, and $3.5 million, increases of $2.0 million, $3.7 million, and $0.2 million, respectively, compared to the prior year second quarter.
- Acquired Dinwiddie Jal Ranch (Intrepid South) on May 1.
Recent Developments
- Signed a joint marketing agreement with NGL Energy Partners (NGL) for Intrepid to handle the development, transportation, marketing, and sale of water from approximately 185,000 acres of the companies’ properties in the Northern Delaware Basin.
- Announced the acquisition, together with NGL, of land in Texas near Intrepid South for the development of a produced water disposal facility and to facilitate water recycling plans. Successfully permitted five disposal wells on the property.
- Entered into an amended credit facility, moving from a $50 million asset-backed revolving facility to a $75 million cash-flow revolving facility with a $75 million accordion.
"Since our last earnings announcement, we have undertaken one of our most productive and rewarding three-month periods in recent memory, highlighted by multiple acquisitions and an additional, strategic partnership in our growing oilfield solutions segment," said Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid's Executive Chairman, President, and CEO. "To top it off, we delivered a solid second quarter as our diversified revenue streams provided a boost to overall results and our potash and Trio® segments managed good results despite a challenging spring season that saw record wet weather throughout most of the country. Operations at Intrepid South exceeded our expectations during the quarter, adding meaningfully to the bottom line through sales of water and other oilfield-related revenue streams. We expect water sales to ramp up in the second half of the year as water-transfer infrastructure and takeaway capacity increase in the Delaware Basin. We continue to expect total water sales for the year towards the high end of the $20 million to $30 million range."
Jornayvaz continued, “Recent summer fill program announcements for potash and Trio® have produced a solid order book for our agricultural products entering the third quarter, albeit at reduced prices. Our joint marketing agreement with NGL and the acquisition of land in Texas for the development of a produced water disposal facility with NGL are the latest steps in pursuing our goal to expand our oilfield solutions footprint and increase the cash flow from Intrepid South. Our improved financial position and cash flow generation over the past 18 months have allowed us to return to an entrepreneurial mindset, and we believe we are well-positioned to pursue additional opportunities across our business segments."
Consolidated Results
Intrepid generated second quarter 2019 net income of $5.6 million, or $0.04 per share, and first half 2019 net income of $11.8 million, or $0.09 per share. Consolidated gross margin increased to $13.2 million and $26.3 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively, compared to the prior-year periods. These increases were driven primarily by improvements in the average net realized sales price(1) of potash and increased byproducts sales.

Gross margin in the second quarter of 2019 increased $2.0 million, or 31%, compared to the second quarter of 2018, as increased market prices for potash drove an 18% increase in average net realized sales price per ton. First half 2019 gross margin increased $6.3 million, or 56%, compared to the prior-year period, as higher average net realized sales price per ton was partially offset by a 6% decrease in sales volume due to continued wet weather in parts of the U.S.
Second quarter 2019 production volume increased compared to the prior year due to timing of harvest from Intrepid's solar ponds.
Trio®

Gross margin improved to $1.5 million during the second quarter of 2019 on higher average net realized sales price per ton and increased byproduct water sales. First half 2019 gross margin improved to $2.2 million, an increase of $6.5 million compared to the prior-year period, primarily as a result of increased byproduct water sales and lower cost of goods sold. Lower cost of goods sold resulted from recovery-rate improvements over the past year and more product sold into international markets, some of which carried lower per ton inventory cost due to previous write-downs based on an estimate of net realizable value.
Second quarter 2019 sales volume increased 3% compared to the prior-year period as increased international shipments were mostly offset by lower domestic volumes. First half 2019 sales decreased 13% compared to the prior year as continued wet weather in parts of the U.S. and uncertainty surrounding price towards the end of the second quarter resulted in decreased domestic sales.
Second quarter and first half 2019 production volume increased 20% and 26%, respectively, compared to the prior year, as Intrepid converted more work-in-process inventory into premium Trio®.
Oilfield Solutions

Sales increased $1.7 million, or 41%, in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 mainly due to a $1.0 million increase in sales of products such as high-speed mixing and trucking, caliche, produced water disposal royalties, and right-of-way or damages revenue associated with Intrepid South.
Gross margin in the second quarter of 2019 increased $0.2 million, or 8%, compared to the prior year as improved sales were partially offset by expenses associated with the Intrepid South acquisition and costs related to high-speed mixing and trucking services and water sales.
First half 2019 sales increased $3.4 million, or 38%, due to $2.0 million in sales of potassium chloride brine used in high-speed mixing services and a $1.7 million increase in other sales. Water sales decreased $0.4 million compared to the first half of 2018 due to an increase in sales classified as a byproduct of our potash or Trio® segment.
Costs related to the sales of potassium chloride brine and water and the Intrepid South acquisition resulted in a $1.0 million decrease in gross margin in the first half of 2019 compared to the first half of 2018.
Liquidity
Cash provided by operations was $23.6 million during the second quarter of 2019. Cash spent on investing activities was $61.8 million, primarily due to the Intrepid South acquisition in May 2019. As of June 30, 2019, Intrepid had $15.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $20.9 million available to borrow under its credit facility. As of June 30, 2019, Intrepid had $50 million of senior notes outstanding and $20 million outstanding under its credit facility with Bank of Montreal.
In August 2019, Intrepid amended its credit facility to change it from an asset-backed revolving credit facility to a cash-flow revolving credit facility, to increase the amount available under the facility from $50 million to $75 million plus an additional $75 million accordion, and to extend the maturity date to August 1, 2024.

Intrepid Potash Inc.
UNAUDITED NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2019 AND 2018
(In thousands, except per share amounts)
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 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 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.
