MOSAIC SEGMENT REALIGNMENT

This report should be read in conjunction with The Mosaic Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, including the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
On March 13, 2015, The Mosaic Company (“Mosaic”, and individually or in any combination with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) announced that it was realigning its business segments (the “Realignment”) to more clearly reflect the Company’s evolving business model. Furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein is the text of Mosaic’s announcement regarding the Realignment. 
Our business segments are determined by management based upon factors such as products and services, production processes, technologies, market dynamics, and for which segment financial information is readily available for our chief operating decision maker. As part of the Realignment, our international distribution activities, which had previously been reported in our Phosphates business segment, are being moved into a separate International Distribution segment, as this is how our chief operating decision maker began viewing and evaluating our operations during the first quarter. The Corporate and Other segment will now include inter-segment eliminations, mark-to-market gains/losses on derivatives that had previously been reported in our Phosphates and Potash business segments, debt expenses, and our legacy Argentina and Chile results.
The tables below provide certain performance data for our reportable segments for each of the eight quarters through the quarter ended December 31, 2014, adjusted to reflect the Realignment.  The recasting of previously issued financial information does not represent a restatement of previously issued financial statements. The information contained in this Form 8-K is being furnished in order to provide the financial community with historical financial data that is presented on a basis consistent with the Company’s new reporting structure. Beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2015, the Company’s financial statements will reflect the new reporting structure with prior periods adjusted accordingly.

Footnotes

(a)
Diluted earnings per share has been previously published in our Form 10-Q reports and quarterly performance data. It is not impacted by the change in operating segments.
(b)
Since Q4 2013, diluted weighted average number of shares reflects the impact of shares subject to the forward contract for our contractual share repurchase obligations.
(c)
Includes a discrete income tax benefit of approximately $45 million in Q3 2013, $63 million in Q1 2014, $14 million in Q2 2014, $29 million in Q3 2014, $100 million in Q4 2014 and a discrete income tax expense of approximately $104 million in Q4 2013.
(d)
The Company defines EBITDA as operating earnings plus depreciation, depletion and amortization plus equity earnings in nonconsolidated companies. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a supplemental numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flows 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). A reconciliation of EBITDA to the nearest comparable GAAP measure and an explanation of why we include EBITDA appear below under "Non-GAAP Reconciliation".
(e)
Includes elimination of intersegment sales.
(f)
Excludes tonnes sold by PhosChem for its other member. Effective December 31, 2013, we and PhosChem's other member each assumed responsibility for PhosChem's former activities as they related to our respective products. We subsequently dissolved PhosChem.
(g)
Sales volumes include intersegment sales.
(h)
FOB Plant, sales to unrelated parties.
(i)
Includes inbound freight, outbound freight and warehousing costs on domestic MOP sales.
(j)
The Company has presented gross margin excluding Canadian resource taxes and royalties (“CRT”) for Potash which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a supplemental numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows 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 GAAP. Gross margin excluding CRT provides a measure that we believe enhances the reader’s ability to compare our gross margin with that of other companies which incur CRT expense and classify it in a manner different than the Company in their statement of earnings. Because securities analysts, investors, lenders and others use gross margin excluding CRT, the Company’s management believes that the Company's presentation of gross margin excluding CRT for Potash affords them greater transparency in assessing the Company’s financial performance against competitors. Because not all companies use identical calculations, investors should consider that the Company's calculation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Gross margin excluding CRT, should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
(k)
Q4 2014 operating rate includes an additional 600 thousand metric tonnes of annual capacity from our Colonsay expansion.
(l)
This price excludes industrial and feed sales.
(m)
Calculated as EBITDA divided by sales tonnes.
(n)
Includes crop nutrient dry concentrates and animal feed ingredients.
(o)
Amounts are representative of our average ammonia costs in cost of goods sold.
(p)
Amounts are representative of our average sulfur cost in cost of goods sold.
(q)
Three point quarterly average (Fertecon).
(r)
Three point quarterly average (Green Markets).
(s)
Three point quarterly average (NYMEX).
(t)
Calculated as current assets less cash and liabilities for the International Distribution segment.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation
EBITDA is provided to assist securities analysts, investors, lenders and others in their comparisons of operational performance, valuation and debt capacity across companies with differing capital, tax and legal structures.  EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as a measure of operating performance.  Since EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying interpretations and calculations, EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.  A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA is included below.

THE MOSAIC COMPANY RELEASES HISTORICAL FINANCIALS
UNDER NEW SEGMENTS
Guidance For New Segments
PLYMOUTH, MN, March 13, 2015 - The Mosaic Company (NYSE: MOS) today released new historical segment financials. With Mosaic’s acquisition of Archer Daniels Midland’s (ADM) distribution business in Brazil and Paraguay, the Company will now manage and report a new International Distribution segment. Beginning with the first quarter of 2015, Mosaic will report four segments: Phosphates, Potash, International Distribution, and Corporate and Other. The new Phosphates segment will split out manufacturing from International Distribution. The Corporate and Other segment will contain legacy Argentinean and Chilean businesses, as well as mark to market adjustments on derivatives.
“The new disclosures we released today are expected to increase transparency and improve peer benchmarking and business modeling,” stated Rich Mack, Mosaic’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “These enhanced disclosures provide additional data and metrics across all our businesses to allow our owners and analysts to measure our strategic and financial progress. The new segmentation also provides better visibility into our Phosphates segment by separating it from our International Distribution segment.”
New Performance Data and a PowerPoint Presentation describing the new segmentation are available on Mosaic’s website at www.mosaicco.com/investors.
The Company also announced an update of the near-term price, volume and gross margin guidance reflecting the new segmentation. Finished phosphate volumes that are manufactured by Mosaic and sold through International Distribution will be accounted for in both segments. In the first quarter, Mosaic expects about 200,000 tonnes will drive both manufacturing margins in the Phosphates segment and distribution margins in the International Distribution segment.

• Following acquisition of Archer Daniels Midland’s (ADM) fertilizer business Mosaic realigned management and reporting of results into four segments: – Potash – Phosphates – International Distribution – Corporate and Other • Expected outcomes/benefits: – Increased transparency – Improved peer benchmarking – Ease of modeling 3 Summary Provides execution proof points of strategic and operational initiatives


 
4 Summary of Changes • Potash, Phosphates and International Distribution Segments will no longer include mark-to-market gains/losses on derivatives. • Phosphates Segment now captures only manufacturing economics, with inter- segment transactions based on arms length transfer pricing methodology with the International Distribution segment. • Phosphates Segment will include our equity earnings from our Miski Mayo and Ma’aden investments. • The new International Distribution segment will capture the lower margin, less capital intense distribution businesses currently operating in Brazil and Paraguay, India and China. • The Corporate and Other segment includes inter-segment eliminations, the mark-to-market gains/losses on derivatives, debt expenses, as well as the legacy Argentina and Chile results. • We have also provided incremental disclosures to facilitate benchmarking and analytics. Old and new metrics are defined at the end of this deck.


 
5 Business Drivers: 101 • Realized prices are reported FOB mine. • Mix of domestic vs. international shipments impacts price realization. Price realizations reported exclude impact of intercompany sales to International Distribution. • Realized prices also lag spot market (supply chain length). • Over 70% of costs are fixed in the short term, so per tonne costs fluctuate with operating rate. • Production mix (between mines) also impacts average costs/tonne. • K-Mag ® sells at a premium to MOP on a K20 content basis. • Phosphates is a margin business with market prices for raw materials (ammonia & sulfur) generally correlated to prices of finished product. • Realized prices are reported FOB plant. Price realizations reported exclude impact of intercompany sales to International Distribution. • Realized DAP price is provided as the reference price, however, the company sells multiple products, so product mix impacts revenues and margins. • Ammonia costs realized in costs of goods sold are expected to be lower starting in 2017 as a result of deliveries under a long-term contract with price based on natural gas costs. • Over time, shift to higher mix of MicroEssentials® is expected to benefit margins. Potash Phosphates


 
6 Potash Segment – More Detail • Accounting Review: • Continue to include domestic freight revenue in net sales. → Canpotex revenues exclude freight • Continue to include in costs of good sold (COGS): → Canadian resource taxes & royalties → Freight costs (associated freight revenues) • Depreciation, depletion & amortization (DD&A) was increased as a result of a step up in asset values at inception of Mosaic formation. → Average asset life for depreciation = 24 years for building and improvements and 14 years for machinery and equipment. • New Disclosures: • Freight revenues and costs • Cash COGS per sales tonne • EBITDA per sales tonne • Key Business Relationships: • With ~ 70% of product costs fixed, operating rate is key driver of cash costs per tonne of production → One percentage point swing in operating rate (all else equal) = $1 change in cash costs per tonne (assuming same production profile by mine). • Canadian resource taxes (CRT) are a driven by profitability before CRT less CAPEX.


 
7 Phosphates Segment – More Detail • Accounting Review: • Continue to include freight in both revenue and costs of goods sold. • Depreciation, depletion & amortization (DD&A) is historically higher than competitors as a result of a step up in asset values at inception of Mosaic formation. • Additionally, DD&A increased roughly $14 million per quarter as a result of the recent CF Industries’ phosphate business acquisition. • New Disclosures: • Freight revenue and costs • Full production conversion costs per production tonne • EBITDA per sales tonne • Total MicroEssentials sales volumes (prior disclosures excluded sales through International Distribution blends) • Key Business Relationships: • Realized raw material costs are normally one quarter lagged from purchase prices. • Realized ammonia costs are a function of both internal production and market purchases. Faustina ammonia plant’s operating capacity is 500 thousand tonnes. Annual ammonia consumption is ~1.8 million tonnes. • Costs to produce one tonne of DAP = 1.7x blended rock costs + 0.2x realized ammonia costs + 0.4x realized sulfur costs + conversion costs. • MicroEssentials products generate a margin premium over DAP.


 
8 International Distribution Segment • Accounting Overview: • Prices and revenue include transportation costs. • All of the Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses are local. • Revenue and profit from products sold to International Distribution from the Phosphates and Potash segments that are not sold to end customers in the same period are eliminated in a Corporate and Other segment adjustment called profit in inventory adjustment. As inventory levels and profits change this amount could be positive or negative. • Key Business Relationships: • The historical seasonality in this business has resulted in the third quarter normally being the strongest and first quarter the weakest in terms of volumes which often impact gross margin per tonne. • Blends prices vary based on nutrient content mix. • Over time, increasing sell-through of MicroEssentials® is expected to drive higher margins, both per tonne and in absolute. • Business Strategy is Two-fold: • First, to increase the value of the phosphates and potash manufacturing businesses by → providing market access to geographies outside North America, → allowing the flexibility to manage seasonality in demand and maintaining consistent North American operating rates, as well as → supporting premium product growth. • And, second, to run a successful stand-alone distribution business.


 
9 Guidance Update Phosphates Guidance Q1 Sales volume 2.1 to 2.3 million tonnes Q1 DAP selling price $450 to $460 per tonne Q1 Gross margin rate in the high teens Q1 Operating rate in the 80 to 85 percent range 2015 Sales volume 9 to 10 million tonnes International Distribution Guidance Q1 Sales volume 0.85 to 0.95 million tonnes Q1 Gross margin of $24 to $27 per tonne 2015 Sales volumes 6 to 7 million tonnes  Prior phosphate volume and margin guidance reflected the combined manufacturing and distribution businesses.  This guidance aligns with new segment reporting.  This guidance also reflects roughly 0.2 million tonnes of volumes manufactured by the Phosphates business and sold through the International Distribution business.  All other guidance remains unchanged.


 
10 Appendix: Select Metric Definitions Metric: Potash Definition Cash COGS per sales tonne Cash COGS per sales tonne are calculated excluding resources taxes and royalties, freight and DD&A. Royalties are included in the calculation. MOP North America realized price Excludes non-agricultural product prices MOP average realized price Includes non-agricultural product prices Sales volumes Sales volumes include intercompany sales Metric: Phosphates Definition Sulfur realized costs Purchased price of sulfur plus ~$20/tonne of transportation, transformation and storage costs Ammonia realized costs Blended ammonia costs (purchased and produced) plus ~$30/tonne of transportation and storage costs Blended rock costs Average realized rock costs including purchased phosphate rock, Miski Mayo JV off-take and Florida mined rock Miski Mayo JV rock costs Recorded through the P&L at market price with an off-set in equity earnings Full production conversion costs per production tonne Chemical plant costs including related DD&A per production tonne DAP realized prices DAP realized prices exclude intercompany sales Sales volumes Sales volumes include intercompany sales
