The Mosaic Company Research Report

On September 16, 2013, The Mosaic Company (Mosaic) released an update of the near-term price, volume and gross margin guidance, as well as the Company's effective tax rate guidance for the seven month transition period. The Company stated that since it announced its calendar Q3 2013 guidance on July 16, 2013, domestic and international crop nutrient markets have softened in part consequent to the distributor's cautiousness caused by the Belarusian Potash Company (BPC) break-up. Jim Prokopanko, President and CEO of the Company said, "The long-term positive outlook for crop nutrient demand has not changed; high commodity prices are driving record farm returns and making our products more affordable than ever before. These strong fundamentals are expected to drive near record global phosphate and potash shipments in calendar 2013. In the short term, however, dealers are cautious and are deferring purchases. As a result, we have lowered our price and volume guidance for both the Potash and Phosphates segments for the third calendar quarter of 2013."
