Key Highlights

CEO Commentary
"In the second quarter, we continued to benefit from stronger potash market conditions and our improved cost position in this nutrient," said PotashCorp President and Chief Executive Officer Jochen Tilk. "Robust potash demand ? especially in offshore markets, where Canpotex2 achieved its second highest first-half shipment total ? supported a constructive market and is expected to carry through the remainder of the year. We anticipate more subdued nitrogen and phosphate markets in the second half to offset strength in potash and, as a result, have maintained our full-year earnings guidance range.

"During the second quarter, we safely and successfully completed our capacity audit at Rocanville. The results exceeded our expectations as nameplate capacity reached 6.5 million tonnes, increasing our Canpotex sales entitlement to approximately 55 percent effective July 1. This result is a significant accomplishment that would not have been possible without the steadfast commitment of our Rocanville employees to safe and efficient production. With our lowest cost operation now ramped up, we are on track to reduce potash cost of goods sold by $10 per tonne this year.

"We continued to work through regulatory and integration planning processes related to our merger with Agrium3 and we expect the transaction to close late in the third quarter of 2017. We also announced that following the expected closure, the newly formed company will be named Nutrien.4 We are excited for the opportunities of the combined company and the value Nutrien can provide to all of its stakeholders," said Tilk.

SASKATOON, July 27, 2017 /CNW/ - Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc. (PotashCorp) reported second-quarter earnings of $0.24 per share ($201 million), which included an $0.08 per share income tax provision recovery, bringing the first-half total to $0.42 per share ($350 million). Results for both the quarter and the first six months surpassed the $0.14 per share ($121 million) and $0.23 per share ($196 million) earned in the respective periods of 2016.

Gross margin for the quarter ($255 million) and first six months ($523 million) exceeded 2016 levels ($243 million and $477 million, respectively), as higher potash contributions more than offset weaker nitrogen and phosphate prices. Despite higher earnings in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, cash from operating activities of $328 million and $551 million trailed last year's totals, primarily due to changes in accounts receivable and the non-cash impact of our income tax provision recovery.

Investments in Arab Potash Company (APC) in Jordan, Israel Chemicals Ltd. (ICL) in Israel and Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile S.A. (SQM) in Chile contributed $51 million to our second-quarter earnings, bringing first-half totals to $97 million. Totals for both the second quarter and first half exceeded the respective amounts generated last year, which also included a dividend from Sinofert Holdings Limited (Sinofert) in China. The market value of our investments in these four publicly traded companies was approximately $4.8 billion, or $6 per PotashCorp share, at market close on July 26, 2017.

Market Conditions
Global potash markets continued to improve through the second quarter as agronomic need and affordability supported demand, especially offshore, and contributed to modestly higher prices. In North America, a good spring application season led to healthy shipment levels ? although below the particularly robust second quarter of 2016 ? and reduced inventory throughout the supply chain. Offshore imports to the US reached record levels through the first half, resulting in lower domestic producer sales volumes.

In nitrogen, the startup of new global capacity had a negative impact on market fundamentals during the quarter. Notwithstanding strong consumption in most key regions, new supply outpaced growth in demand and pressured prices. As this supply transition unfolded, US urea prices fell to multi-year lows while ammonia and UAN were pushed to their lowest prices of the year.

Despite strong demand in Latin America, global phosphate markets remained subdued in the second quarter, largely due to increased supply and lower shipments to India. In this environment, prices for most phosphate fertilizer products declined slightly. While prices for feed and industrial products were modestly higher than in the first quarter, they remained well below prior-year levels, due primarily to increased supply from offshore producers.

Potash
Potash gross margin of $213 million for the second quarter and $373 million for the first six months of 2017 reflected increased prices, reduced per-tonne costs and higher offshore sales volumes. Results in both periods were well above the respective totals of $123 million and $211 million generated in 2016.

Sales volumes for both the quarter (2.4 million tonnes) and first half (4.5 million tonnes) exceeded those for the comparable periods in 2016 (2.1 million tonnes and 3.9 million tonnes, respectively). While North American volumes were 23 percent lower than in the comparatively strong second quarter of 2016, offshore shipments increased by 34 percent, led by strong demand in Brazil. The majority of Canpotex's volumes for the quarter were sold to Latin America (40 percent) and Other Asian markets outside of China and India (40 percent), while India and China accounted for 10 percent and 3 percent, respectively.

Our average realized potash price of $174 per tonne for the second quarter reflected a continued recovery in global spot prices and exceeded the $154 per tonne realized in the same period last year ($169 per tonne in 2016's second quarter excluding PotashCorp's share of Canpotex's Prince Rupert project exit costs).

Manufactured cost of goods sold for the quarter averaged $82 per tonne ? including $23 per tonne of depreciation ? down from $91 per tonne in the same period last year due to a greater share of production from our lower-cost mines, particularly Rocanville.

Nitrogen
Weaker nitrogen prices and higher US natural gas costs resulted in gross margin of $68 million for the quarter and $165 million for the first six months, trailing last year's comparable periods by 48 percent and 30 percent, respectively. Our US operations accounted for 51 percent of our nitrogen gross margin for the quarter, with our Trinidad operations providing the remainder.

Sales volumes of 1.6 million tonnes for the quarter were 6 percent higher than those in the same period of 2016, largely due to stronger fertilizer demand. For the first half, shipments of 3.2 million tonnes were relatively flat compared to 2016.

Our average realized price of $223 per tonne during the quarter declined from $244 per tonne in the same period last year as increased global supply weighed on benchmark pricing, pulling down realizations for nearly all our products.

Cost of goods sold for the quarter averaged $182 per tonne, up from $160 per tonne in 2016's second quarter, driven primarily by higher US natural gas costs.

Phosphate
In phosphate, weaker prices more than offset the benefit of lower input costs, resulting in negative gross margin of $26 million for the second quarter and negative $15 million for the first half of 2017. Both totals trailed those of the prior year and included non-cash notable charges of $28 million for the quarter and $32 million for the first half of 2017, which were lower than the comparative periods in 2016.

Sales volumes of 0.6 million tonnes for the quarter were higher than the 0.5 million tonnes sold in the prior year's second quarter, mainly due to stronger North American agriculture demand, while first-half deliveries of 1.2 million tonnes were flat when compared to the same period in 2016.

Our average realized phosphate price for the quarter was $407 per tonne, down from $485 per tonne in the same period last year as prices for nearly all products decreased ? most notably, liquid fertilizers.

Cost of goods sold was $452 per tonne for the second quarter, lower than $506 per tonne in the same period of 2016, primarily due to lower input costs and non-cash notable charges.

Financial
Provincial mining and other taxes for the quarter totaled $44 million, higher than the $26 million in last year's corresponding period, predominantly due to higher potash prices.

A $68 million non-cash income tax provision recovery relating to provincial tax changes that will be realized in future years led to an overall income tax recovery for the second quarter of $62 million, compared to a $24 million income tax expense realized in 2016's second quarter.

Potash Market Outlook
We expect strong potash demand to continue in the second half of 2017 and have increased our anticipated global shipment range to 62-65 million tonnes for 2017, well above the 60 million tonnes shipped last year.

In North America, we had a very successful summer fill program and are now fully committed through the end of September. We believe supportive crop prices and the need to replenish soil nutrients will support consumption through the remainder of the year and continue to anticipate total demand to this market of 9.3-9.8 million tonnes, similar to 2016.

In Latin America, supportive crop economics are expected to maintain a positive demand environment for the remainder of 2017. Following robust first-half deliveries, we now expect record full-year shipments of 12.0-12.5 million tonnes.

With recently settled contracts in China ? including those with Canpotex ? we expect strong deliveries in the second half of 2017. We now estimate demand for the full year in the range of 15.5-16.5 million tonnes, above 2016 levels, as nutrient affordability and a move to balanced fertility continue to drive robust consumption.

In India, we anticipate that a good monsoon, agronomic need and increased acreage will offset the impact of lower subsidies. Following strong first-half shipments, we now expect deliveries of 4.0-4.5 million tonnes for the year, above 2016 levels.

In Other Asian markets, we expect healthy palm oil prices, improved moisture conditions and favorable economics for other key crops to support demand for the remainder of 2017. We maintain our estimated shipment range of 9.0-9.5 million tonnes for the full year, higher than last year's total.

Financial Outlook
Taking the above market factors into consideration, we have raised the bottom end of our guidance range for potash sales volumes (9.0-9.4 million tonnes) and increased the range for potash gross margin ($650-$850 million). Our estimates include the benefit of the Rocanville capacity audit results, which increased our Canpotex sales entitlement to approximately 55 percent for the second half of 2017.

In nitrogen, we expect recent capacity additions to continue to pressure prices and alter trade flows, keeping margins below those of 2016. In phosphate, we anticipate that challenging market fundamentals will continue to impact prices and our profitability. Given these considerations, we have lowered the top end of our combined nitrogen and phosphate gross margin range and now estimate $150-$300 million in 2017.

With lower annual earnings forecast in the US, we now anticipate an income tax recovery and have adjusted our effective income tax rate to a negative range of 3-6 percent.

We now expect higher provincial mining and other taxes in the range of 19-22 percent of potash gross margin for 2017, primarily due to an increased profit tax forecast resulting from lower estimated capital depreciation.

Income from equity investments is now anticipated in the range of $170-$190 million, above the previous guidance range, largely due to the strength of SQM earnings.

Due to the recent strength of the Canadian dollar, we have revised our full-year foreign exchange rate assumption to CDN$1.32 per US dollar.

Based on these factors, we have maintained our full-year 2017 earnings guidance of $0.45-$0.65 per share, including merger-related costs now expected to be $0.06 per share.

With its subsidiaries, Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc. ("PCS") ? together known as "PotashCorp" or "the company" except to the extent the context otherwise requires ? forms a crop nutrient and related industrial and feed products company. The company's accounting policies are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"). The accounting policies and methods of computation used in preparing these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the company's 2016 annual consolidated financial statements.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PCS and its subsidiaries; however, they do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the company's 2016 annual consolidated financial statements. Further, while the financial figures included in this preliminary interim results announcement have been computed in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim periods, this announcement does not contain sufficient information to constitute an interim financial report as that term is defined in International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". The company expects to publish an interim financial report that complies with IAS 34 in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in August 2017.

In management's opinion, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year.

2. Segment Information

The company has three reportable operating segments: potash, nitrogen and phosphate. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1. Inter-segment sales are made under terms that approximate market value.

6. Share-Based Compensation

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the company issued stock options and performance share units ("PSUs") to eligible employees under the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"). Information on stock options and PSUs is summarized below:

Grant date fair value per unit for stock options and share-settled PSUs granted during the first quarter of 2017 was $4.36 and $19.93, respectively.

Stock Options

Under the LTIP, stock options generally vest and become exercisable on the third anniversary of the grant date, subject to continuous employment or retirement, and have a maximum term of 10 years. The weighted average fair value of stock options granted was estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

Exercise price per option   

$

18.71

Expected annual dividend per share

$

0.40

Expected volatility

29%

Risk-free interest rate

1.67%

Expected life of options

5.7 years 

Performance Share Units

PSUs granted under the LTIP in 2017 vest based on the achievement of performance metrics, over three years, comprising 1) the relative ranking of the company's total shareholder return compared with a specified peer group using a Monte Carlo simulation option pricing model and 2) the outcome of the company's cash flow return on investment compared with its weighted average cost of capital. Compensation cost is measured based on 1) the grant date fair value of the units, adjusted for the company's best estimate of the outcome of non-market vesting conditions(1) at the end of each period for share-settled PSUs and 2) period-end fair value of the awards for cash-settled PSUs. PSUs granted under the LTIP settle in shares for grantees who are subject to the company's share ownership guidelines and in cash for all other grantees.

(1)  The company's cash flow return on investment compared with its weighted average cost of capital is a non-market vesting condition as performance is not tied to the company's share price or relative share price.

7. Proposed Transaction with Agrium Inc.

On September 11, 2016, the company entered into an Arrangement Agreement with Agrium Inc. ("Agrium") pursuant to which the company and Agrium have agreed to combine their businesses (the "Proposed Transaction") in a merger of equals transaction to be implemented by way of a plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act. On November 3, 2016, the Proposed Transaction was overwhelmingly approved by shareholders of both companies. On November 7, 2016, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice issued a final order approving the Proposed Transaction. Upon the closing of the Proposed Transaction, the new parent company will be named Nutrien Ltd. ("Nutrien"). The Proposed Transaction is currently anticipated to be completed in the third quarter of 2017 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including remaining regulatory approvals.

Upon the closing of the Proposed Transaction, the company and Agrium will become indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of Nutrien. PotashCorp shareholders will own approximately 52 percent of Nutrien, and Agrium shareholders will own approximately 48 percent.

(1) Represents weeks of full production shutdown; excludes the impact of any periods of reduced operating rates and planned routine annual maintenance shutdowns and announced workforce reductions.

(2) Taxes and royalties = current income tax expense - investment tax credits - realized excess tax benefit related to share-based compensation + potash production tax + resource surcharge + royalties + municipal taxes + other miscellaneous taxes (calculated on an accrual basis).

(3) Total recordable injuries for every 200,000 hours worked for all PotashCorp employees, contractors and others on site. Calculated as the total recordable injuries multiplied by 200,000 hours worked divided by the actual number of hours worked.

(4) Number of incidents, includes reportable quantity releases, permit non-compliance and Canadian reportable releases. Calculated as: reportable quantity releases (a release whose quantity equals or exceeds the US Environmental Protection Agency's notification level and is reportable to the National Response Center (NRC)) + permit non-compliance (an exceedance of a federal, state, provincial or local permit condition or regulatory limit) + Canadian reportable releases (an unconfined spill or release into the environment).

 

Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc.
Selected Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Reconciliations and Supplemental Information
(in millions of US dollars except percentage amounts)
(unaudited)

The following information is included for convenience only. Generally, a non-IFRS financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, cash flows or financial position that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, cash flow prior to working capital changes and free cash flow are not measures of financial performance (nor do they have standardized meanings) under IFRS. In evaluating these measures, investors should consider that the methodology applied in calculating such measures may differ among companies and analysts.

The company uses both IFRS and certain non-IFRS measures to assess operational performance and as a component of employee remuneration. Management believes these non-IFRS measures provide useful supplemental information to investors in order that they may evaluate PotashCorp's financial performance using the same measures as management. Management believes that, as a result, the investor is afforded greater transparency in assessing the financial performance of the company. These non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, nor superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

EBITDA is calculated as net income before finance costs, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before finance costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, termination benefit costs, certain impairment charges and Proposed Transaction costs. PotashCorp uses EBITDA as a supplemental financial measure of its operational performance. Management believes EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to be important measures as they exclude the effects of items that primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions, rather than the performance of the company's day-to-day operations. As compared to net income according to IFRS, these measures are limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the company's business, the charges associated with impairments, termination costs or Proposed Transaction costs. Management evaluates such items through other financial measures such as capital expenditures and cash flow provided by operating activities. The company believes that these measurements are useful to measure a company's ability to service debt and to meet other payment obligations or as a valuation measurement.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales (sales less freight, transportation and distribution). Management believes comparing adjusted EBITDA to net sales earned (net of costs to deliver product) is an important indicator of efficiency. In addition to the limitations given above in using adjusted EBITDA as compared to net income, adjusted EBITDA margin as compared to net income as a percentage of sales is also limited in that freight, transportation and distribution costs are incurred and valued independently of sales; adjusted EBITDA also includes earnings from equity investees whose sales are not included in consolidated sales. Management evaluates these items individually on the consolidated statements of income.

B.     CASH FLOW

Set forth below is a reconciliation of "cash flow prior to working capital changes" and "free cash flow" to cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS.

Management uses cash flow prior to working capital changes as a supplemental financial measure in its evaluation of liquidity. Management believes that adjusting principally for the swings in non-cash working capital items due to seasonality or other timing issues assists management in making long-term liquidity assessments. The company also believes that this measurement is useful as a measure of liquidity or as a valuation measurement.

The company uses free cash flow as a supplemental financial measure in its evaluation of liquidity and financial strength. Management believes that adjusting principally for the swings in non-cash operating working capital items due to seasonality or other timing issues, additions to property, plant and equipment, and changes to other assets assists management in the long-term assessment of liquidity and financial strength. Management also believes that this measurement is useful as an indicator of its ability to service its debt, meet other payment obligations and make strategic investments. Readers should be aware that free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures.
