This Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K amends the registrant’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 17, 2005.

 

Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountants.

 

On March 11, 2005, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of The Mosaic Company (the “Company”) approved the engagement of KPMG LLP as independent auditors of the Mosaic Investment Plan and the Mosaic Union Savings Plan (the “Plans”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, thereby effectively dismissing the firm of Ernst & Young LLP as auditors of the Plans effective March 11, 2005. The decision to engage KPMG LLP was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of The Mosaic Company.

 

The reports of Ernst & Young LLP on the Plans’ financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

 

In connection with the audits of the Plans’ financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, and in the subsequent interim period, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young LLP on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young LLP, would have caused Ernst & Young LLP to make reference to the matter in its report.

 

The Company has requested Ernst & Young LLP to furnish it a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of that letter, dated March 17, 2005, is filed as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K.

 

Item 9.01 Financial Statement and Exhibits.

 

(c) Exhibits

 

Reference is made to the Exhibit Index hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.
