Denver, CO, May 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Intrepid Potash, Inc. (Intrepid) (NYSE:IPI) today reported its results for the first quarter of 2021.
Key Takeaways for Q1 2021
- Net income of $2.5 million, or $0.18 per share
- Gross margin of $9.1 million, up $3.5 million or 62%, compared to the first quarter of 2020.
- Cash flow from operations of $19.1 million
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $12.9 million
- Water sales of $5.5 million
- Produced water recycling initiative well under way
“First quarter results benefited from strong potash and Trio® pricing and sales, leading to improvements in net income, gross margin and EBITDA compared to the prior year.” said Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid’s Executive Chairman, President, and CEO. “Under application of fertilizer in prior years and strong commodity prices continue to support fertilizer demand across our markets and we expect robust cash flow from operations will continue in the second quarter. Above-average evaporation at our potash facilities during the summer of 2020 will extend our production season into the second quarter and will allow us to meet the continued strong demand for fertilizer.”
Jornayvaz continued, “We made substantial progress on our expansion into full-cycle water management during the quarter, increasing our recycling infrastructure and working to expand our current relationships with operators to include additional brine and recycled volumes. Oilfield activity continues to improve in the Delaware Basin with rig counts and permits steadily increasing throughout the first quarter which we expect will lead to improved oilfield segment results in future periods.”
Consolidated Results
We generated a first quarter 2021 net income of $2.5 million, or $0.18 per share and a gross margin of $9.1 million. Net income increased compared to the prior year as improved fertilizer pricing, strong demand in agricultural markets, and increased byproduct sales drove improvements in the bottom line.
Prior year first quarter net loss was impacted by the accrual of a $10 million settlement payment agreed upon at our March settlement hearing relating to the Mosaic litigation and partially offset by a gain of $4.7 million on the restricted sale of 320 acres of fee land at the Intrepid South property.

Sales in the first quarter of 2021 increased compared to the same period in 2020, due to an 18% increase in sales volume, an 11% increase in our average net realized sales price per ton and a $1.8 million increase in byproduct sales. Agricultural sales volumes benefited from good weather, strong commodity prices, and very strong early season demand for fertilizer.
Average net realized sales price per ton was higher due to price increases announced in the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021. Magnesium chloride sales improved $1.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2020 as good evaporation during the summer of 2020 improved product availability compared to the prior year.
Potash production decreased 18% compared to the first quarter of 2020 due to lower brine grade at our HB facility and reduced run days at our Moab plant as we increased salt production to meet first quarter demand. Despite the decreased production in first quarter, we have sufficient inventory to meet the strong fertilizer demand in our markets and have significantly more inventory left to harvest in our solar evaporation ponds compared to the prior year. We expect to operate our potash facilities into the second quarter of 2021, compared to the prior year in which we ended our spring production in the mid-April.
Gross margin of $8.7 million in the first quarter of 2021 was a $4.3 million increase compared to the prior year first quarter due to the factors discussed above.

Sales increased 5% for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020 due to a 21% increase in average net realized sales price per ton, partially offset by a 9% decrease in Trio® tons sold. Sales volumes decreased as we continued to sell fewer tons into international markets as we focus on the higher priced domestic market.
Average net realized sales price per ton increased due to higher pricing announced during the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021 and a decrease in international sales which generally have a lower net realized sales price per ton.
Production volume increased 12% in the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, as we converted more tons of work-in-process inventory to premium Trio®.
Our Trio® segment generated a negative gross margin of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to a negative gross margin of $3.6 million in the first quarter of 2020, due to the factors discussed above.

Sales decreased $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, mainly due to a $3.3 million decrease in water sales. Our oilfield solutions water sales and sales of other oilfield products and services decreased as the COVID-19 pandemic reduced oilfield activity from year-ago levels.
Cost of goods sold increased 29%, or $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to the prior year, primarily a result of increased third-party water purchases to meet the significant daily refresh rates for certain fracs on our South ranch. During the first quarter of 2021, we sold a majority of our water from water rights on our South ranch, while in the first quarter of 2020 we sold a majority of our water from our Pecos and Caprock water rights. Our water sales from the South ranch water rights generally carry a higher cost of goods sold as compared to sales from our Pecos and Caprock water rights.
Gross margin decreased $4.3 million compared to the prior year, due to the factors discussed above.
Liquidity
Cash provided by operations was $19.1 million during the first quarter of 2021. Cash used in investing activities was $2.3 million as we continued to carefully manage capital spending due to economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
As of March 31, 2021, we had $36.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $35.0 million available to borrow under our revolving credit facility.

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 I
ncome (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 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.
