Aug. 5, 2026 Source: The Mosaic Co, news release TAMPA, FL - The Mosaic Company (NYSE: MOS), reported a net loss of $273 million and diluted loss per share of $0.86 for the second quarter of 2026. Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $407 million and adjusted EPS was $0.13. "Business conditions remained challenging in the second quarter, driven primarily by sulfur availability and affordability challenges," said President and CEO Bruce Bodine. "At Mosaic, we are focused on the things we can control. We've reduced phosphate production, cut costs, reduced capital expenditures and strengthened our financial flexibility while maintaining the ability to resume full production rates when markets improve. We also continue to reallocate underperforming capital in pursuit of stronger shareholder returns." Mosaic reported a second quarter net loss of $273 million, compared to net income of $411 million in the same quarter of 2025. Second quarter results were negatively impacted by $351 million of pre-tax notable items, primarily consisting of $162 million in mark-to-market adjustments related to the value of Mosaic's holding of Ma'aden shares, $69 million of non-cash project write-offs, and $49 million related to foreign currency transactions. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA(1) totaled $407 million, down from $566 million in the same quarter last year. Results primarily reflected lower sales volumes and higher raw material costs in Phosphate and Mosaic Fertilizantes, which were partially offset by higher phosphate and potash prices. Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $132 million in the second quarter, down from $167 million in the prior year period, reflecting lower bad debt expenses and the impact of cost saving initiatives. For the full year, SG&A is now expected to be in the range of $510 to $530 million. The effective tax rate for the second quarter was 11.2%. The adjusted effective tax rate was 4.5% excluding the impacts from notable items. Cash taxes paid were $45 million in the second quarter. Cash flow from operations totaled $167 million in the second quarter, compared to $610 million in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by lower adjusted EBITDA and customer prepayments in Brazil. Free cash flow(1) in the second quarter of 2026 was $(153) million compared to $305 million in the same quarter a year ago, reflecting the timing of capital expenditures. Free cash flow is expected to improve through the remainder of the year as a result of lower capital expenditures and an expected release of working capital, primarily in Brazil.
