Intrepid Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results

Denver, August 4, 2022 - Intrepid Potash, Inc. ("Intrepid", the "Company", "we", "us", "our") (NYSE:IPI) today reported its results for the second quarter of 2022.

Key Highlights for Second Quarter 2022

Total sales of $91.7 million, an increase of $23.8 million compared to $67.9 million in the second quarter of 2021, as potash and Trio® net realized sales prices(1) increased to $738 and $493 per ton, respectively.
Net income of $23.7 million (or $1.74 per diluted share), a $4.2 million improvement compared to the second quarter of 2021; adjusted net income(1) totaled $24.8 million, which compares to $7.4 million in the second quarter of 2021.
Gross margin of $41.8 million, a $27.6 million improvement over the prior year.
Cash flow from operations of $49.1 million, a $16.8 million improvement over the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $41.5 million, which was a $24.6 million improvement over the prior year.
As of July 31, 2022, Intrepid had approximately $85 million in cash and cash equivalents and $74 million available under its revolving credit facility, for total liquidity of approximately $159 million.
Incurred capital expenditures of $16.0 million in the second quarter of 2022 and expect full year 2022 capital investment to be in the range of $65 million to $75 million.
Continued progress on production improvement projects designed to capitalize on the strong commodity environment and improve our production cost per ton:
Replacing the injection pipeline at HB with an improved system designed to maintain higher flow rates and increase brine storage underground - expected in-service 1H 2023
Preparing to drill an additional potash cavern in Moab which is expected to increase production tons through higher overall extraction brine grade - expected in-service Q4 2022
Upgrading brackish and deep-brine wells in Wendover to increase brine availability and better manage variability in weather and evaporation rates - expected in-service Q4 2022
Initial development planning of a frac sand opportunity on our strategically located South ranch with the potential to produce over 600k tons per year of frac sand for sale into the Delaware Basin, starting in 2023.

Consolidated Results, Outlook, & Management Commentary

Intrepid generated second quarter 2022 sales of $91.7 million, which compares to second quarter 2021 sales of $67.9 million. Consolidated gross margin in second quarter of 2022 totaled $41.8 million, while adjusted net income in second quarter 2022 totaled $24.8 million, or $1.82 per diluted share, which compares to second quarter 2021 adjusted net income of $7.4 million, or $0.55 per diluted share. Net income for first half 2022 was $55.1 million compared to first half 2021 net income of $22.0 million. The Company delivered adjusted EBITDA of $41.5 million in the second quarter, bringing first half 2022 adjusted EBITDA to $91.6 million. The strong profitability continues to be primarily driven by high prices for potash and Trio®, which averaged $738 per ton and $493 per ton, respectively, in the second quarter.

Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid's Executive Chairman and CEO commented: "Intrepid's financial performance in the second quarter and first half of 2022 has ranked among the best in nearly ten years. In the first half of the year, Intrepid generated adjusted EBITDA of $91.6 million on total sales of $196.1 million, for adjusted EBITDA margins of 47%. First half 2022 cash flow from operations totaled $83.2 million and we ended July with $85 million of cash and cash equivalents for total liquidity of $159 million.

Underpinned by strong cash flow generation, for 2022, we have budgeted for approximately $65 million to $75 million of capital spending, with a roughly 50-50 split between maintenance and growth. In terms of growth projects, over the past couple quarters, we've highlighted several initiatives at our Utah and New Mexico facilities to help increase production and improve unit economics, and today we're excited to announce a new sand project at our South ranch. We've already made progress on permitting and leasing, and are beginning equipment purchases. This project is still in its early phases but we estimate the sand resource has over ten years of potential, and is also strategically located in the heart of oil and gas activity in the Permian basin.

Looking ahead, the outlook for both the industry and Intrepid remains strong. The global fertilizer supply challenges - particularly for potash - remains unabated. Even with the announced potash supply additions, we believe the lack of supply versus historical levels of demand will result in potash prices remaining elevated. Moreover, despite recent pullback from multi-year highs, forward crop prices still point to historically strong US farmer economics. After nearly 18 months of strong demand in the potash market, we expect buyers will approach second half with significantly more restraint given inventory carryover following a compressed spring and heightened concerns over the increased credit and inventory exposure they face at current price levels. Despite the minor headwinds and a slower start to the third quarter than prior years, we expect agricultural demand will pick up as harvest progresses and we are ready to meet our customer's needs in today's dynamic market."

Potash segment sales in the second quarter of 2022 increased 30% to $48.8 million when compared to the same period in 2021. The higher revenue was primarily driven by a 131% increase in our average net realized sales price per ton to $738, despite potash sales volumes decreasing 39% year-over-year to 56k tons in the quarter. We sold fewer tons of potash in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, as we had less potash available to sell. Below average evaporation rates across our facilities in 2021 led to decreased potash production during the second half of 2021 and the first half of 2022. Customers were also reluctant to replenish potash inventory during the back half of the second quarter of 2022, choosing instead to wait for summer programs with the expectation of those being announced during the third quarter of 2022. During the second quarter of 2021, a summer program was announced in May 2021 which incentivized customers to take delivery beginning in the back half of second quarter of 2021.

In the second quarter of 2022, potash production totaled 25k tons, a 51% decrease from the prior year period. Segment gross margin totaled $24.9 million, which was $14.8 million higher than the $10.1 million generated in the second quarter of 2021. In the first half of 2022, potash production totaled 128k tons, which compares to 164k tons in the prior year period, while potash gross margin totaled $54.0 million, a $35.2 million increase from the first half of 2021.

Trio®

$493 $271 $476 $251 

Trio® segment sales of $35.5 million for the second quarter of 2022 were $8.5 million higher compared to the prior year, which was driven by a higher average net realized sales price per ton of $493 in the quarter, which was 82% higher than the prior year period. The higher sales price helped offset lower Trio® sales volumes, which totaled 59k tons, which compares to 75k tons in the prior year period. Our Trio® product is primarily applied during the spring application season, and similar to potash customers, Trio® customers were reluctant to hold much inventory exiting the spring season. Gross margin of $13.1 million was $9.9 million higher than the second quarter of 2021. Trio® production in the second quarter of 2022 totaled 58k tons, a modest decrease from the 63k tons produced in the second quarter of 2021.

In the first half of 2022, Trio® segment sales totaled $76.5 million, an increase of $25.9 million compared to the prior year period. The higher sales were primarily driven by a first half average net realized sales price of $476 per ton, which was 90% higher than the first half of 2021 average net realized sales price of $251 per ton, which helped offset a 10% decrease in sales volumes. Gross margin totaled $29.2 million, which was a $26.1 million improvement from the prior year period. Trio® production in the first half of 2022 totaled 123k tons, which compares to 119k tons in the first half of 2021.

In the second quarter of 2022, our oilfield solutions segment sales totaled $7.5 million, an increase of $4.2 million compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was driven by a $1.9 million increase in water sales, a $1.4 million increase in surface use/rights-of-way/easement

revenues, a $0.4 million increase in brine water sales, a $0.3 million increase in caliche sales, and a $0.2 million increase in produced water royalties.

In the first half of 2022, our oilfield solutions segment sales totaled $14.5 million, an increase of $6.9 million compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was driven by a $2.8 million increase in water sales, a $2.3 million increase in surface use/rights-of-way/easement revenues, a $1.0 million increase in brine water sales, a $0.5 million increase in produced water royalty revenues, and a $0.4 million increase in caliche sales.

The second quarter and first half 2022 increase in our oilfield solutions product sales was primarily driven by a higher level of oil and gas activity in the Permian basin. In the first half of 2022 in the Permian, the average active rig count was 321 rigs and ended the second quarter at 349 rigs, which compares to an average of 216 rigs in the first half of 2021 and 236 rigs at the end of the second quarter of 2021.

Liquidity
During the second quarter of 2022, cash provided by operations was approximately $49.1 million, while cash used in investing activities was approximately $26.0 million. As of July 31, 2022, we had approximately $85 million in cash and cash equivalents, no outstanding borrowings, and $74 million available to borrow under our revolving credit facility, for total liquidity of $159 million.

Notes
1 Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) and average net realized sales price per ton are non-GAAP financial measures. See the non-GAAP reconciliations set forth later in this press release for additional information.
Unless expressly stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to tons in this press release refer to short tons. One short ton equals 2,000 pounds. One metric tonne, which many international competitors use, equals 1,000 kilograms or 2,204.62 pounds.

(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 net income, adjusted net income 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 Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share

Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are calculated as net income or income 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 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.
