Overview of Results
CF Industries Holdings, Inc., today announced second quarter 2016 net
earnings attributable to common stockholders of $47 million, or $0.20
per diluted share, and EBITDA of $329 million. Adjusted net earnings was
$77 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDAfor
the second quarter of 2016 was $342 million. These results compare to
second quarter 2015 net earnings attributable to common stockholders of
$352 million, or $1.49 per diluted share, and EBITDA of $670 million.
Adjusted net earnings was $380 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, and
adjusted EBITDA was $708 million for the second quarter of 2015. These
results include a realized loss on natural gas hedges of $61 million for
the second quarter of 2016, compared to a realized loss on natural gas
hedges of $5 million for the second quarter of 2015.
For the first six months of 2016, net earnings attributable to common
stockholders was $73 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, and EBITDA was
$536 million. Adjusted net earnings was $170 million, or $0.72 per
diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $642 million for the first six
months of 2016. These results compare to the first six months of 2015
net earnings attributable to common stockholders of $583 million, or
$2.44 per diluted share, and EBITDA of $1.16 billion. Adjusted net
earnings for the first six months of 2015 was $600 million, or $2.52 per
diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $1.18 billion. These results
include a realized loss on natural gas hedges of $117 million for the
first six months of 2016, compared to a realized loss on natural gas
hedges of $37 million for the first six months of 2015.
Included in the company's reported earnings is the $150 million payment
made to OCI N.V. in connection with the May 22, 2016 termination of the
combination agreement between the company and OCI.
As of June 30, 2016, the company has prepaid income taxes in the amount
of $855 million. This includes approximately $690 million from the
carryback of certain U.S. tax losses from the current year to prior year
periods, which is based on the timing of the completion of certain
capital projects. These U.S. tax losses are primarily related to tax
depreciation of the capital additions that have been and are expected to
be placed into service in 2016. The refund related to this tax loss
carryback is expected to be received in 2017.
Net sales decreased in the second quarter of 2016 to $1.13 billion from
$1.31 billion in the same period last year due to lower average selling
prices across all segments. The decrease was partially offset by an
increase in sales volume, including the impacts of the company's
capacity expansion projects and the inclusion of CF Fertilisers UK.
Selling prices were negatively impacted by continued oversupply of
nitrogen driven by global nitrogen capacity additions, coupled with
lower energy and ocean freight costs, and softer global ammonia demand
from industrial users, including phosphate fertilizer production.
In North America, solid demand at the beginning of April initially
supported selling prices in the second quarter of 2016, but several
weeks of wet and cool weather delayed fertilizer applications.
Additionally, a high level of imported products that arrived in late
April and into May subsequently pressured prices.
Cost of sales decreased 3 percent in the second quarter of 2016 compared
to the second quarter of 2015 due primarily to an unrealized net
mark-to-market gain on natural gas derivatives of $211 million, compared
to an unrealized net mark-to-market gain on natural gas derivatives of
$19 million in the second quarter of 2015. The decrease was partially
offset by a realized loss on natural gas hedges of $61 million compared
to a realized loss on natural gas derivatives of $5 million in the prior
year's comparable period, as well as the inclusion of CF Fertilisers UK
in the company's second quarter 2016 financial results.
The new ammonia plant at Donaldsonville, LA, is expected to begin
production during the third quarter of 2016. At Port Neal, IA, the new
ammonia plant complex is mechanically complete, and the offsites and
utilities are complete and operational. Ammonia production is expected
to begin late in the third quarter, or beginning of the fourth quarter
of 2016, with the urea plant to follow closely thereafter.
“Our plants ran well and we set all-time records for production and
sales volume while achieving healthy price realizations, despite
difficult market conditions," said Tony Will, president and chief
executive officer, CF Industries Holdings, Inc.
In the second quarter of 2016, the average cost of natural gas in cost
of sales for the company was $2.85 per MMBtu, which includes a realized
loss of $0.75 per MMBtu on natural gas hedges, totaling $61 million.
This compares to the average cost of natural gas in cost of sales of
$2.86 per MMBtu, which includes a realized loss of $0.07 per MMBtu on
natural gas hedges for the second quarter of 2015, totaling $5 million.
During the second quarter of 2016, the average price of natural gas at
Henry Hub in North America was $2.10 per MMBtu, and the average price of
natural gas at the National Balancing Point in the United Kingdom was
$4.50 per MMBtu.
The company did not enter into any additional natural gas hedges in the
second quarter of 2016.
CHS Distribution
On July 31, 2016, the Board of Managers of CF Industries Nitrogen, LLC
approved a distribution payment to CHS of approximately $75 million,
which was paid on August 1, 2016. This total is comprised of
approximately $30 million related to February and March 2016, and
approximately $45 million related to the second quarter of 2016.
Outlook
The demand outlook for the 2017 fertilizer season is positive as major
nitrogen-consuming markets are expected to see continued increases in
product applications. However, abundant nitrogen supply will continue to
pressure global pricing as new ammonia, urea and UAN production come on
line in the second half of 2016. Additional urea and UAN production
capacity in North America is scheduled to come on line in the first or
second quarter of 2017 with global capacity additions declining
significantly thereafter. As a result, the company expects a continued
challenging price environment through 2017, which will economically
pressure high-cost producers, leading to decreases in exports,
additional production curtailments, and permanent shutdowns. A lack of
meaningful new construction activity after the middle of 2017, coupled
with capacity closures, is expected to lead to price recovery in 2018
and beyond. In the near-term and longer-term, North American producers
should remain at the very low end of the cost curve due to the plentiful
supply of North American natural gas.
Capital Expenditures
The company expects to have total capital expenditures for 2016 in the
range of $2.0 billion to $2.2 billion, of which $1.6 billion to $1.7
billion will be for the capacity expansion projects and $450 million to
$500 million for sustaining, improvement, and other projects.
Increases in planned capital expenditures associated with the capacity
expansion projects resulted from delays in completion time related to
labor productivity and performance of third-party contractors.
Liquidity
On July 29, 2016, the company amended its senior unsecured revolving
credit agreement to reduce the size of the facility from $2.0 billion
back to the $1.5 billion in place prior to the announcement of the OCI
transaction, and to increase the maximum total net leverage covenant
(net debt to trailing twelve month EBITDA) from the third quarter of
2016 through the fourth quarter of 2017. As of June 30, 2016, the
covenant specified a net leverage ratio not greater than 3.75x. As of
July 29, 2016, this has been amended as follows:
-
5.25x from the third quarter of 2016 through the first quarter of 2017;
-
5.00x in the second quarter of 2017;
-
4.75x in the third quarter of 2017;
-
4.00x in the fourth quarter of 2017; and
-
3.75x in the first quarter of 2018 and beyond.
The company is in the process of seeking a similar amendment to modify
the total net leverage covenant under the note purchase agreement
governing the company’s outstanding senior notes due 2022, 2025 and
2027. As of June 30, 2016, the company was in compliance with all
covenants under the credit agreement and note purchase agreement.
“We remain firmly committed to our investment grade credit ratings.
Through this period of depressed nitrogen prices, we are keenly focused
on maximizing our liquidity and balance sheet strength. This will give
us the flexibility to retire maturing debt in 2018 if that becomes
necessary," said Will. "In addition, we believe it is prudent to suspend
share repurchases and allow the current share repurchase authorization
to expire in December 2016."

Segment Results
Ammonia Segment
CF Industries’ ammonia segment produces anhydrous ammonia (ammonia),
which is the company’s most concentrated nitrogen fertilizer, containing
82 percent nitrogen. The results of the ammonia segment consist of sales
of ammonia to external customers. In addition, ammonia is the “basic”
nitrogen product that the company upgrades into other nitrogen
fertilizers such as urea, UAN solution, and AN.

(1) Nutrient tons represent the tons of nitrogen within the
product tons.
Comparison of 2016 to 2015 Second Quarter and first six months periods:
-
Ammonia sales volume increased slightly for the first six months of
2016 compared to the comparable period in 2015. An early start to
spring applications drew sales into the first quarter of 2016 from the
second quarter of 2016, however, year-to-date results were strong.
-
Ammonia average selling prices decreased due to an increase in global
nitrogen supply driven by capacity additions coupled with lower energy
and ocean freight costs.
-
Ammonia gross margin per ton decreased due to lower average selling
prices which were partially offset by an increase in unrealized net
mark-to-market gains on natural gas derivatives.
Granular Urea Segment
CF Industries’ granular urea segment produces granular urea, which
contains 46 percent nitrogen. Produced from ammonia and carbon dioxide,
it has the highest nitrogen content of any of the company’s solid
nitrogen fertilizers.

Comparison of 2016 to 2015 Second Quarter and first six months periods:
-
Granular urea sales volume increased due to increased production as a
result of the company's new urea plant coming on line at
Donaldsonville, LA.
-
Granular urea average selling price per ton decreased due to increased
global nitrogen supply driven by capacity additions coupled with lower
energy and ocean freight costs.
-
Granular urea gross margin per ton decreased due to lower average
selling prices which were partially offset by an increase in
unrealized net mark-to-market gains on natural gas derivatives.
UAN Segment
CF Industries’ UAN segment produces urea ammonium nitrate solution
(UAN). UAN is a liquid fertilizer product with nitrogen content that
typically ranges from 28 percent to 32 percent and is produced by

_______________________________________________________________________________
(1) Nutrient tons represent the tons of nitrogen within the
product tons.
Comparison of 2016 to 2015 Second Quarter and first six months periods:
-
UAN sales volume increased due to an increase in production as a
result of the company's new UAN plant coming on line at
Donaldsonville, LA, in the first quarter of 2016, as well as increased
demand resulting from favorable application conditions late in the
second quarter 2016.
-
UAN average selling price per ton decreased due to increased global
nitrogen supply driven by capacity additions coupled with lower energy
and ocean freight costs.
-
UAN gross margin per ton decreased due to lower average selling prices
which were partially offset by an increase in unrealized net
mark-to-market gains on natural gas derivatives.
AN Segment
CF Industries' AN segment produces ammonium nitrate (AN). AN is used as
a nitrogen fertilizer with nitrogen content between 29% to 35%, and also
is used by industrial customers for commercial explosives and blasting
systems. AN is produced at the company's Yazoo City, Mississippi;
Billingham, United Kingdom; and Ince, United Kingdom, complexes.

(1) Nutrient tons represent the tons of nitrogen within the
product tons.
Comparison of 2016 to 2015 Second Quarter and first six months periods:
-
AN sales volume was higher due to the inclusion of CF Fertilisers UK
sales.
-
AN average selling price per ton decreased primarily due to declining
domestic agricultural demand.
-
AN gross margin per ton decreased primarily due to lower average
selling prices, which were partially offset by an increase in
unrealized net mark-to-market gains on natural gas derivatives. In the
second quarter of 2016, gross margin per ton was also negatively
impacted by fixed cost write-offs associated with plant downtime at
the Yazoo City, MS, plant resulting from a tower switch out as part of
the complex conversion to industrial-grade AN when compared to the
second quarter of 2015.
Other Segment
CF Industries’ Other segment includes diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), urea
liquor, nitric acid and compound fertilizer products (NPKs).

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes
that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net earnings, and adjusted net
earnings per diluted share, which are non-GAAP financial measures,
provide additional meaningful information regarding the company's
performance and financial strength. Non-GAAP financial measures should
be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's
reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because
not all companies use identical calculations, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA,
adjusted net earnings, and adjusted net earnings per diluted share
included in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies. Reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA,
adjusted net earnings, and adjusted net earnings per diluted share to
the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables
accompanying this release under “CF Industries Holdings, Inc.-Selected
Financial Information-Non-GAAP Disclosure Items.”

and safety laws and regulations and permitting requirements; future
regulatory restrictions and requirements related to greenhouse gas

SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION |
NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE ITEMS |
|
|
Reconciliation of net earnings (GAAP measure) to EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP measures): |
|
|
|
EBITDA is defined as net earnings attributable to common
stockholders plus interest expense (income)-net, income taxes, and
depreciation and amortization. Other adjustments include the
elimination of loan fee amortization that is included in both
interest and amortization, and the portion of depreciation that is
included in noncontrolling interests. The company has presented
EBITDA because management uses the measure to track performance and
believes that it is frequently used by securities analysts,
investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of
companies in the industry.
|
|
|
|
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted with the selected
items included in EBITDA as summarized in the table below. The
company has presented adjusted EBITDA because management uses
adjusted EBITDA, and believes it is useful to investors, as a
supplemental financial measure in the comparison of year-over-year
performance.
