Mosaic Company shares fell 5.3% in extended trading after reporting Q2 earnings that missed Wall Street expectations on both profit and revenue. The fertilizer giant posted adjusted earnings of $0.51 a share, below the expected $0.57 a share. Revenue also missed expectations, coming in at $2.24 billion compared to the expected $2.27 billion.
Mosaic Company (NYSE: MOS) saw its stock drop by 5.3% in extended trading on July 2, 2025, following the release of its second-quarter (Q2) 2025 earnings report. The fertilizer giant reported adjusted earnings of $0.51 per share, falling short of the expected $0.57 per share. Revenue also missed expectations, coming in at $2.24 billion compared to the expected $2.27 billion.The company's President and CEO, Bruce Bodine, attributed the performance to extensive maintenance activity and several discreet items, stating that the work completed in the first half of the year sets the stage for a strong second half. He noted improvements in operating performance, reduced turnaround activity, successful execution in Brazil, and favorable fertilizer market fundamentals, suggesting that the company is poised for significant free cash flow generation through the remainder of the year.
Despite the earnings miss, Mosaic ended the quarter with $286 million in cash and equivalents and a net debt position of $4.1 billion. The company has also been upgrading its outlook for potash and phosphate markets, reflecting a more optimistic view of its future prospects.
Investors should closely monitor Mosaic's upcoming reports and earnings calls for further insights into the company's performance and outlook. The stock market's reaction to Mosaic's earnings report underscores the importance of meeting or exceeding analysts' expectations, especially in the volatile fertilizer industry.
