OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (Aug. 6, 2019) - Compass Minerals (NYSE: CMP) second-quarter results demonstrated ongoing improvement in its Salt business, while its Plant Nutrition business delivered modest gains in operating earnings despite a challenging global agriculture market.
The company reported a second-quarter 2019 net loss of $11.8 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $7.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2018. While operating earnings increased $1.3 million to $4.1 million, a year-over-year increase in non-operating costs, primarily related to foreign exchange losses and interest expense, drove the higher net loss compared to prior year.
Second-quarter 2019 results were also negatively impacted by $2.8 million ($2.1 million, net of tax) of increased Salt business logistics costs related to flooding along the Mississippi River. When excluding these costs, adjusted net loss totaled $9.7 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA increased to $40.9 million, 6% above 2018 second-quarter results.
“While there is much room for improvement, we made important strides this quarter to drive better operational performance which is beginning to be reflected in our results,” said Kevin Crutchfield, Compass Minerals president and CEO. “I'm excited for the opportunities ahead given our renewed focus on mining excellence, streamlining our organizational structure and encouraging North American highway deicing bid season results.”
*EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net loss are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in tables at the end of this press release.
SALT BUSINESS SUMMARY
Salt segment second-quarter revenue of $112.6 million declined 7% from 2018 results. Lower year-over-year highway deicing commitment volumes in North America, a delay in highway

deicing shipments due to Mississippi River flooding as well as lower restocking demand for deicing products in the U.K. drove a 19% decline in sales volumes. Increased highway deicing pricing and a favorable sales mix drove a 14% increase in average selling prices, partially offsetting the impact from lower sales volumes.
Salt operating earnings in the second quarter totaled $14.6 million, a 17% increase from prior-year results primarily due to improved average selling prices. EBITDA increased 11% to $29.4 million. Increased rock salt shipment transit times due to river flooding resulted in $2.8 million of additional shipping and handling costs. Excluding this impact, adjusted EBITDA increased 21% to $32.2 million.
Bid Season Update
Approximately 85% of our North American highway deicing bidding process for the 2019-2020 winter season has been completed. Low inventories across much of our served market have created a favorable pricing environment. Given bid results awarded thus far, the company expects its average contract price for the upcoming winter season will increase approximately 8% from prior-season’s results. The company also expects to increase its total committed bid volumes by more than 15% compared to prior year as production rates at Goderich mine have improved the company's overall supply position.
PLANT NUTRITION BUSINESS SUMMARY
The lingering impact of unfavorable agriculture conditions in the U.S. continued to limit Plant Nutrition North America results. In South America, demand increased across many product categories and lifted earnings ahead of prior-year results.
Plant Nutrition North America second-quarter revenue of $48.1 million declined 7% year-over-year due to lower sales volumes of both sulfate of potash (SOP) and micronutrient products. Demand in both product categories continued to be challenged by wet weather conditions in key North America markets. Average selling prices in the second quarter remained stable. Second-quarter 2019 operating earnings totaled $4.6 million, a slight increase from prior-year results due to lower depreciation expense. EBITDA declined 10% to $15.5 million. Both operating earnings and EBITDA were negatively impacted by increased logistics cost due to an unfavorable geographic sales mix and an increase in SG&A expense.
The Plant Nutrition South America segment generated second-quarter 2019 revenue of $82.1 million, a 15% increase from 2018 results on a 19% increase in sales volumes, partially offset by a 3% decline in average selling prices. Sales volumes increased for agriculture products as well as for water treatment products compared to prior year, which was negatively impacted by a national trucker strike in Brazil. In local currency, segment revenue grew significantly with improved agriculture product pricing and sales volumes. These improvements drove a second-quarter operating earnings increase of $1.0 million from prior-year results to $1.7 million. EBITDA increased 7% to $7.2 million.

OTHER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The company reported other expense of $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to other expense of $1.0 million in the prior year quarter. This result was primarily driven by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
Interest expense increased by $1.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2018 primarily due to increased borrowings.
Cash flow from operations year-to-date totaled $103.2 million, down from $181.6 million generated in the first six months of 2018. In addition to a greater net loss, the decline was driven by year-over-year changes in working capital, as the company continues to build inventory across all businesses in preparation for fall and winter demand.
OUTLOOK
The company's Salt business expects strong earnings growth in the second half of the year driven by an attractive pricing outlook for North America highway deicing products and an improved rock salt supply position.
In the Plant Nutrition North America segment, the company expects strong second-half 2019 demand for SOP in North America given the low application rates in the Spring, while micronutrient sales are expected to remain pressured by challenging conditions for row crop producers in North America. In Plant Nutrition South America, the company continues to expect revenue and earnings growth in the second half of 2019, although agriculture product sales may be impacted if uncertainty among Brazilian growers continues.

Non-GAAP Measures
Management uses a variety of measures to evaluate the company’s and its operating segments’ performance. While the consolidated financial statements provide an understanding of the company’s overall results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, management analyzes components of the consolidated financial statements to identify certain trends and evaluate specific performance areas. In addition to using U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures, management uses EBITDA, EBITDA margin, EBITDA adjusted for items which management believes are not indicative of the company’s ongoing operating performance (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA margin to evaluate the operating performance of the company’s core business operations because its resource allocation, financing methods, cost of capital and income tax positions are managed at a corporate level, apart from the activities of the operating segments, and the operating facilities are located in different taxing jurisdictions, which can cause considerable variation in net earnings. The company also uses EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin to assess its consolidated and segment operating performance and return on capital against other companies and to evaluate potential acquisitions or other capital projects. These measures are not calculated under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, operating earnings, cash flows or other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of overall profitability or liquidity. EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin exclude interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, each of which are an essential element of the company’s cost structure and cannot be eliminated. Consequently, any measure that excludes these elements has material limitations. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used as measures of operating performance, these terms are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to the potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. Because of unusual and non-recurring items that occurred during the quarter, the company is also presenting adjusted net loss, adjusted operating earnings and adjusted operating margin because management believes they are more indicative of our ongoing performance. The calculation of these measures as used by management and a reconciliation to comparable GAAP measures is set forth in the following tables.
