THE MOSAIC COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tables in millions, except per share amounts and as otherwise designated)
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Nature of Business
The Mosaic Company (“Mosaic,” and, with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) produces and markets concentrated phosphate and potash crop nutrients. We conduct our business through wholly and majority owned subsidiaries and businesses in which we own less than a majority or a non-controlling interest, including consolidated variable interest entities and investments accounted for by the equity method.
We are organized into the following business segments:
•Our Phosphate business segment owns and operates mines and production facilities in Florida which produce concentrated phosphate crop nutrients and phosphate-based animal feed ingredients, and processing plants in Louisiana which produce concentrated phosphate crop nutrients. The Phosphate segment includes our 75% interest in the Miski Mayo Phosphate Mine (“Miski Mayo”) in Peru. These results are consolidated in the Phosphate segment. The Phosphate segment also includes our 25% interest in the Ma’aden Wa’ad Al Shamal Phosphate Company (“MWSPC”), a joint venture to develop, own and operate integrated phosphate production facilities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We market approximately 25% of MWSPC phosphate production. We recognize our equity in the net earnings or losses relating to MWSPC on a one-quarter lag in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
•Our Potash business segment owns and operates potash mines and production facilities in Canada and the U.S. which produce potash-based crop nutrients, animal feed ingredients and industrial products. Potash sales include domestic and international sales. We are a member of Canpotex, Limited (“Canpotex”), an export association of Canadian potash producers through which we sell our Canadian potash outside the U.S. and Canada.
•Our Mosaic Fertilizantes business segment includes the assets in Brazil that we acquired in the 2018 acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Vale Fertilizantes S.A. (now known as Mosaic Fertilizantes P&K S.A.), which consist of five phosphate rock mines, four phosphate chemical plants and a potash mine. The segment also includes our legacy distribution business in South America, which consists of sales offices, crop nutrient blending and bagging facilities, port terminals and warehouses in Brazil and Paraguay. We also have a majority interest in Fospar S.A., which owns and operates a single superphosphate granulation plant and a deep-water port and throughput warehouse terminal facility in Brazil.
Intersegment eliminations, unrealized mark-to-market gains/losses on derivatives, debt expenses, and the results of the China and India distribution businesses are included within Corporate, Eliminations and Other.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Statement Presentation and Basis of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Mosaic have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. As permitted under these rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) can be condensed or omitted. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this document reflect, in the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The following notes should be read in conjunction with the accounting policies and other disclosures in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “10-K Report”). Sales, expenses, cash flows, assets and liabilities can and do vary during the year as a result of seasonality and other factors. Therefore, interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Mosaic, its majority owned subsidiaries, and certain variable interest entities in which Mosaic is the primary beneficiary. Certain investments in companies where we do not have control but have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for by the equity method.
Accounting Estimates
Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. The most significant estimates made by management relate to the estimates of fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, the recoverability of non-current assets including goodwill, the useful lives and net realizable values of long-lived assets, environmental and reclamation liabilities, including asset retirement obligations (“ARO”), and income tax-related accounts, including the valuation allowance against deferred income tax assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
3. Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance which requires that a buyer in a supplier financing program make annual disclosures about the program’s key terms, the balance sheet presentation of related amounts, the confirmed amount outstanding at the end of the period, and associated rollforward information. We adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 (our fiscal 2024). We have historically presented supplier financing programs separately on the face of the balance sheet and disclosed key terms of such programs. As such, adoption of this standard did not impact our balance sheet presentation or footnote disclosures.

Canpotex may occur prior to delivery of product to the end customer. We generally satisfy our contractual liabilities within one quarter of incurring the liability.
5. Earnings Per Share
The numerator for basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) is net earnings attributable to Mosaic. The denominator for basic EPS is the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The denominator for diluted EPS also includes the weighted average number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued, unless the shares are anti-dilutive.
The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator for the basic and diluted EPS computations:

| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Net income (loss) attributable to Mosaic | $ | (4.2) |  |  | $ | 841.7 |  |  | $ | 799.6 |  |  | $ | 3,059.6 |
Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding | 331.5 |  |  | 344.2 |  |  | 333.0 |  |  | 356.5 |
Dilutive impact of share-based awards | — |  |  | 3.5 |  |  | 2.1 |  |  | 3.6 |
Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding | 331.5 |  |  | 347.7 |  |  | 335.1 |  |  | 360.1 |
Basic net income (loss) per share attributable to Mosaic | $ | (0.01) |  |  | $ | 2.45 |  |  | $ | 2.40 |  |  | $ | 8.58 |
Diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to Mosaic | $ | (0.01) |  |  | $ | 2.42 |  |  | $ | 2.39 |  |  | $ | 8.50 |

A total of 0.6 million and 0.4 million shares of common stock subject to issuance related to share-based awards for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and 0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 have been excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
6. Inventories
Inventories consist of the following:

| September 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Raw materials | $ | 113.8 |  |  | $ | 177.2 |
Work in process | 865.8 |  |  | 844.8 |
Finished goods | 1,229.5 |  |  | 2,158.3 |
Final price deferred(a) | 49.4 |  |  | 184.2 |
Operating materials and supplies | 194.7 |  |  | 178.6 |
| $ | 2,453.2 |  |  | $ | 3,543.1 |

______________________________
(a)Final price deferred is product that has shipped to customers, but the price has not yet been agreed upon.
7. Goodwill
Mosaic had goodwill of $1.1 billion as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We review goodwill for impairment annually in October and at any time events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be fully recoverable, which is based on our accounting policy and GAAP. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by reporting unit, are as follows:

We will perform our next annual goodwill impairment analysis for each of our reporting units as of October 31, 2023. If our cash flow projections do not support carrying values for our reporting units or our common stock price significantly declines from current levels, a goodwill impairment charge may result in the future. While we are currently assessing projections for our Mosaic Fertilizantes reporting unit, it is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result.
8. Marketable Securities Held in Trusts
In August 2016, Mosaic deposited $630 million into two trust funds (together, the “RCRA Trusts”) created to provide additional financial assurance in the form of cash for the estimated costs (“Gypstack Closure Costs”) of closure and long-term care of our Florida and Louisiana phosphogypsum management systems (“Gypstacks”), as described further in Note 10 of our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Our actual Gypstack Closure Costs are generally expected to be paid by us in the normal course of our Phosphate business; however, funds held in each of the RCRA Trusts can be drawn by the applicable governmental authority in the event we cannot perform our closure and long-term care obligations. When our estimated Gypstack Closure Costs with respect to the facilities associated with a RCRA Trust are sufficiently lower than the amount on deposit in that RCRA Trust, we have the right to request that the excess funds be released to us. The same is true for the RCRA Trust balance remaining after the completion of our obligations, which will be performed over a period that may not end until three decades or more after a Gypstack has been closed. The investments held by the RCRA Trusts are managed by independent investment managers with discretion to buy, sell and invest pursuant to the objectives and standards set forth in the related trust agreements. Amounts reserved to be held or held in the RCRA Trusts (including losses or reinvested earnings) are included in other assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The RCRA Trusts hold investments, which are restricted from our general use, in marketable debt securities classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. As a result, unrealized gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income until realized, unless it is determined that the entire unamortized cost basis of the investment is not expected to be recovered. A credit loss would then be recognized in operations for the amount of the expected credit loss. As of September 30, 2023, we expect to recover our amortized cost on all available-for-sale securities and have not established an allowance for credit loss.
We review the fair value hierarchy classification on a quarterly basis. Changes in the ability to observe valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy. We determine the fair market values of our available-for-sale securities and certain other assets based on the fair value hierarchy described below:
Level 1: Values based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Values based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level 3: Values generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The following table summarizes the balance by contractual maturity of the available-for-sale debt securities invested by the RCRA Trusts as of September 30, 2023. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to prepay obligations before the underlying contracts mature.

Total debt securities | $ | 649.2 |

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, realized gains were $0.1 million and $9.2 million, respectively, and realized losses were $5.7 million and $20.9 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, realized gains were $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and realized losses were $1.0 million and $26.8 million, respectively.
9. Financing Arrangements
Inventory Financing Arrangement
We have an inventory financing arrangement whereby we can sell up to $625 million of certain inventory for cash and subsequently repurchase the inventory at an agreed upon price and time in the future, not to exceed 180 days. Under the terms of the agreement, we may borrow up to 90% of the value of the inventory. It is later repurchased by Mosaic at the original sale price plus interest and any transaction costs. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was no outstanding balance under this facility.
13

Table of Contents |  |
| THE MOSAIC COMPANY |
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Receivable Purchasing Arrangement
We finance certain accounts receivable through a Receivable Purchasing Agreement (“RPA”) with banks whereby, from time-to-time, we sell the receivables. The net face value of the purchased receivables may not exceed $600 million at any point in time. The purchase price of the receivable sold under the RPA is the face value of the receivable less an agreed upon discount. The receivables sold under the RPA are accounted for as a true sale. Upon sale, these receivables are removed from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash received is presented as cash provided by operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold approximately $115.4 million and $1.2 billion, respectively, of accounts receivable under this arrangement. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold approximately $1.0 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively. Discounts on sold receivables were not material for any period presented. Following the sale to the banks, we continue to service the collection of the receivables on behalf of the banks without further consideration. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no amounts outstanding to be remitted to the bank. Any outstanding amount would be classified in accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash collected and remitted are presented as cash used in financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Structured Accounts Payable Arrangements
In Brazil, we finance some of our potash-based fertilizer, sulfur, ammonia and other raw material product purchases through third-party contractual arrangements. These arrangements provide that the third-party intermediary advance the amount of the scheduled payment to the vendor, less an appropriate discount, at a scheduled payment date. Mosaic then makes payment to the third-party intermediary at dates ranging from 98 to 180 days from date of shipment. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the total structured accounts payable arrangements were $600.6 million and $751.2 million, respectively.
Commercial Paper Note Program
In September 2022, we established a commercial paper program which allows us to issue unsecured commercial paper notes with maturities that vary, but do not exceed 397 days from the date of issue, up to a maximum aggregate face or principal amount outstanding at any time of $2.5 billion. We plan to use the revolving credit facility as a liquidity backstop for borrowings under the commercial paper program. As of September 30, 2023, we had $299.6 million outstanding under this program, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.52% and remaining average term of 10 days. As of December 31, 2022, we had $224.8 million outstanding under this program, with a weighted average interest rate of 4.66% and a remaining average term of 10 days.
Term Loan Facility
In May 2023, we entered into a 10-year senior unsecured term loan facility whereby we can draw up to $700 million. The term loan matures on May 18, 2033. We may voluntarily prepay the outstanding principal without premium or penalty. As of September 30, 2023, no amounts have been drawn under this facility.
10. Asset Retirement Obligations
We recognize our estimated AROs in the period in which we have an existing legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset, and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The ARO is recognized at fair value when the liability is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. We depreciate the tangible asset over its estimated useful life. The liability is adjusted in subsequent periods through accretion expense, which represents the increase in the present value of the liability due to the passage of time. Such depreciation and accretion expenses are included in cost of goods sold for operating facilities and other operating expense for indefinitely closed facilities.
Our legal obligations related to asset retirement require us to: (i) reclaim lands disturbed by mining as a condition to receive permits to mine phosphate ore reserves; (ii) treat low pH process water in Gypstacks to neutralize acidity; (iii) close and monitor Gypstacks at our Florida and Louisiana facilities at the end of their useful lives; (iv) remediate certain other conditional obligations; (v) remove all surface structures and equipment, plug and abandon mine shafts, contour and revegetate, as necessary, and monitor for five years after closing our Carlsbad, New Mexico facility; (vi) decommission facilities, manage

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

tailings and execute site reclamation at our Saskatchewan potash mines at the end of their useful lives; (vii) de-commission mines in Brazil and Peru; and (viii) decommission plant sites and close Gypstacks in Brazil. The estimated liability for these legal obligations is based on the estimated cost to satisfy the above obligations, which is discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate.
A reconciliation of our AROs is as follows:

(in millions) | September 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
AROs, beginning of period | $ | 1,905.6 |  |  | $ | 1,749.3 |

Liabilities settled | (147.5) |  |  | (205.6) |
Accretion expense | 70.0 |  |  | 81.6 |
Revisions in estimated cash flows | 293.7 |  |  | 264.5 |
Foreign currency translation | 9.2 |  |  | 0.9 |
AROs, end of period | 2,146.2 |  |  | 1,905.6 |
Less current portion | 392.1 |  |  | 212.3 |
Non-current portion of AROs | $ | 1,754.1 |  |  | $ | 1,693.3 |

North America Gypstack Closure Costs
A majority of our ARO relates to Gypstack Closure Costs in Florida and Louisiana. For financial reporting purposes, we recognize our estimated Gypstack Closure Costs at their present value. This present value determined for financial reporting purposes is reflected on our Consolidated Balance Sheets in accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities.
As discussed below, we have arrangements to provide financial assurance for the estimated Gypstack Closure Costs associated with our facilities in Florida and Louisiana.
EPA RCRA Initiative. On September 30, 2015, we and our subsidiary, Mosaic Fertilizer, LLC (“Mosaic Fertilizer”), reached agreements with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”), the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (“FDEP”) and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality on the terms of two consent decrees (collectively, the “2015 Consent Decrees”) to resolve claims relating to our management of certain waste materials onsite at our Riverview, New Wales, Green Bay, South Pierce and Bartow fertilizer manufacturing facilities in Florida and our Faustina and Uncle Sam facilities in Louisiana. This followed a 2003 announcement by the EPA Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance that it would be targeting facilities in mineral processing industries, including phosphoric acid producers, for a thorough review under the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) and related state laws. As discussed below, a separate consent decree was previously entered into with the EPA and the FDEP with respect to RCRA compliance at the Plant City, Florida phosphate concentrates facility (the “Plant City Facility”) that we acquired as part of our acquisition (the “CF Phosphate Assets Acquisition”) of the Florida phosphate assets and assumption of certain related liabilities of CF Industries, Inc. (“CF”).
The remaining monetary obligations under the 2015 Consent Decrees include:
• Modification of certain operating practices and undertaking certain capital improvement projects over a period of several years that are expected to result in remaining capital expenditures likely to exceed $20 million in the aggregate.
• Provision of additional financial assurance for the estimated Gypstack Closure Costs for Gypstacks at the covered facilities. The RCRA Trusts are discussed in Note 8 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, we have agreed to guarantee the difference between the amounts held in each RCRA Trust (including any earnings) and the estimated closure and long-term care costs.
As of December 31, 2022, the undiscounted amount of our Gypstack Closure Costs ARO associated with the facilities covered by the 2015 Consent Decrees, determined using the assumptions used for financial reporting purposes, was approximately $2.1
15

| THE MOSAIC COMPANY |
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

billion, and the present value of our Gypstack Closure Costs ARO reflected in our Consolidated Balance Sheet for those facilities was approximately $692.3 million.
Plant City and Bonnie Facilities. As part of the CF Phosphate Assets Acquisition, we assumed certain AROs related to Gypstack Closure Costs at both the Plant City Facility and a closed Florida phosphate concentrates facility in Bartow, Florida (the “Bonnie Facility”) that we acquired. Associated with these assets are two related financial assurance arrangements for which we became responsible and that provided sources of funds for the estimated Gypstack Closure Costs for these facilities. Pursuant to federal or state laws, the applicable government entities are permitted to draw against such amounts in the event we cannot perform such closure activities. One of the financial assurance arrangements was initially a trust (the “Plant City Trust”) established to meet the requirements under a consent decree with the EPA and the FDEP with respect to RCRA compliance at Plant City. The Plant City Trust also satisfied Florida financial assurance requirements at that site. Beginning in September 2016, as a substitute for the financial assurance provided through the Plant City Trust, we have provided financial assurance for the Plant City Facility in the form of a surety bond (the “Plant City Bond”). The amount of the Plant City Bond is $300.8 million, which reflects our closure cost estimates as of December 31, 2022. The other financial assurance arrangement was also a trust fund (the “Bonnie Facility Trust”) established to meet the requirements under Florida financial assurance regulations that apply to the Bonnie Facility. In July 2018, we received $21.0 million from the Bonnie Facility Trust by substituting for the trust fund a financial test mechanism (“Bonnie Financial Test”) supported by a corporate guarantee as allowed by state regulations. Both financial assurance funding obligations require estimates of future expenditures that could be impacted by refinements in scope, technological developments, new information, cost inflation, changes in regulations, discount rates and the timing of activities. Under our current approach to satisfying applicable requirements, additional financial assurance would be required in the future if increases in cost estimates exceed the face amount of the Plant City Bond or the amount supported by the Bonnie Financial Test.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the aggregate amounts of AROs associated with the combined Plant City Facility and Bonnie Facility Gypstack closure costs included in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets were $365.3 million and $327.5 million, respectively. The aggregate amount represented by the Plant City Bond exceeds the present value of the aggregate amount of ARO associated with that facility. This is because the amount of financial assurance we are required to provide represents the aggregate undiscounted estimated amount to be paid by us in the normal course of our Phosphate business over a period that may not end until three decades or more after the Gypstack has been closed, whereas the ARO included in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet reflects the discounted present value of those estimated amounts.
11. Income Taxes
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, gross unrecognized tax benefits increased by $0.1 million to $25.5 million. The increase is primarily related to recording reserves offset by settlements which occurred during the period. If recognized, approximately $25.0 million in unrecognized tax benefits would affect our effective tax rate and net earnings in future periods.
We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of our income tax provision. We had accrued interest and penalties totaling $5.7 million and $5.0 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, that were included in other noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Accounting for uncertain tax positions is determined by prescribing the minimum probability threshold that a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained based on the technical merits of the position. Mosaic is continually under audit by various authorities in the normal course of business. Such tax authorities may raise issues contrary to positions taken by the Company. If such positions are ultimately not sustained by the Company, this could result in material assessments to the Company. The costs related to defending, if needed, such positions on appeal or in court may be material. The Company believes that any issues raised have been properly accounted for in its current financial statements.
For the three months ended September 30, 2023, discrete tax items recorded in tax expense was a benefit of approximately $17.3 million. The net tax benefit consisted primarily of the true up of estimates from our U.S. tax return provision and other miscellaneous costs. In addition to items specific to the period, our income tax rate is impacted by the mix of earnings across the jurisdictions in which we operate, by a benefit associated with depletion, a benefit associated with non-U.S. incentives, changes in valuation allowances, withholding tax expense and by the impact of certain entities being taxed in both their foreign jurisdiction and the U.S., including foreign tax credits for various taxes incurred.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, discrete tax items recorded in tax expense was a benefit of approximately $41.1 million. The net tax benefit consisted primarily of the true up of estimates from our U.S. and Canada tax return provision, share-based excess benefit, interest on effectively settled unrecognized tax benefits, and other miscellaneous benefits. In addition to items specific to the period, our income tax rate is impacted by the mix of earnings across the jurisdictions in which we operate, by a benefit associated with depletion, a benefit associated with non-U.S. incentives, changes in valuation allowances, withholding tax expense and by the impact of certain entities being taxed in both their foreign jurisdiction and the U.S., including foreign tax credits for various taxes incurred.
12. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
We periodically enter into derivatives to mitigate our exposure to foreign currency risks, interest rate movements and the effects of changing commodity prices. We record all derivatives on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The fair value of these instruments is determined by using quoted market prices, third-party comparables or internal estimates. We net our derivative asset and liability positions when we have a master netting arrangement in place. Changes in the fair value of the foreign currency, commodity and freight derivatives are immediately recognized in earnings.
We do not apply hedge accounting treatments to our foreign currency exchange contracts, commodities contracts or freight contracts. Unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency exchange contracts used to hedge cash flows related to the production of our products are included in cost of goods sold in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Unrealized gains and losses on commodities contracts and certain forward freight agreements are also recorded in cost of goods sold in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency exchange contracts used to hedge cash flows that are not related to the production of our products are included in the foreign currency transaction gain/loss caption in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
From time to time, we enter into fixed-to-floating interest rate contracts. We apply fair value hedge accounting treatment to these contracts. Under these arrangements, we agree to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and floating interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. The mark-to-market of these fair value hedges is recorded as gains or losses in interest expense. We had no fixed-to-floating interest rate swap agreements in effect as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the gross asset position of our derivative instruments was $9.5 million and $38.8 million, respectively, and the gross liability position of our liability instruments was $31.1 million and $50.1 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the following is the total absolute notional volume associated with our outstanding derivative instruments:

(in millions of Units) |  |  |  |  |  | September 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Derivative Instrument | Derivative Category | Unit of Measure
Foreign currency derivatives |  | Foreign currency |  | US Dollars |  | 2,577.6 |  |  | 2,361.1 |
Natural gas derivatives |  | Commodity |  | MMbtu |  | 16.4 |  | 14.2

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features
Certain of our derivative instruments contain provisions that are governed by International Swap and Derivatives Association agreements with the counterparties. These agreements contain provisions that allow us to settle for the net amount between payments and receipts, and also state that if our debt were to be rated below investment grade, certain counterparties could request full collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $20.3 million and $34.8 million, respectively. We have no cash collateral posted in association with these contracts. If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements were triggered on September 30, 2023, we would have been required to post an additional $16.4 million of collateral assets, which are either cash or U.S. Treasury instruments, to the counterparties.

Counterparty Credit Risk
We enter into foreign exchange, certain commodity and interest rate derivatives, primarily with a diversified group of highly rated counterparties. We continually monitor our positions and the credit ratings of the counterparties involved and limit the amount of credit exposure to any one party. While we may be exposed to potential losses due to the credit risk of non-performance by these counterparties, material losses are not anticipated. We closely monitor the credit risk associated with our counterparties and customers and to date have not experienced material losses.
13. Fair Value Measurements
Following is a summary of the valuation techniques for assets and liabilities recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value on a recurring basis:
Foreign Currency Derivatives - The foreign currency derivative instruments that we currently use are forward contracts, which typically expire within 18 months. Most of the valuations are adjusted by a forward yield curve or interest rates. In such cases, these derivative contracts are classified within Level 2. Some valuations are based on exchange-quoted prices, which are classified as Level 1. Changes in the fair market values of these contracts are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as a component of cost of goods sold in our Corporate, Eliminations and Other segment, or foreign currency transaction (gain) loss. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the gross asset position of our foreign currency derivative instruments was $6.9 million and $20.7 million, respectively, and the gross liability position of our foreign currency derivative instruments was $29.7 million and $49.2 million, respectively.
Commodity Derivatives - The commodity contracts primarily relate to natural gas. The commodity derivative instruments that we currently use are forward purchase contracts and swaps. The natural gas contracts settle using NYMEX futures or AECO price indexes, which represent fair value at any given time. The contracts’ maturities and settlements are scheduled for future months and settlements are scheduled to coincide with anticipated gas purchases during those future periods. Quoted market prices from NYMEX and AECO are used to determine the fair value of these instruments. These market prices are adjusted by a forward yield curve and are classified within Level 2. Changes in the fair market values of these contracts are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as a component of cost of goods sold in our Corporate, Eliminations and Other segment. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the gross asset position of our commodity derivative instruments was $2.6 million and $18.1 million, respectively, and the gross liability position of our commodity instruments was $1.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
Interest Rate Derivatives - We manage interest expense through interest rate contracts to convert a portion of our fixed-rate debt into floating-rate debt. From time to time, we also enter into interest rate swap agreements to hedge our exposure to changes in future interest rates related to anticipated debt issuances. Valuations are based on external pricing sources and are classified as Level 2. Changes in the fair market values of these contracts are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as a component of interest expense. We did not hold any interest rate derivative positions as of September 30, 2023.

Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial instruments are as follows:

| September 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 591.0 |  |  | $ | 591.0 |  |  | $ | 735.4 |  |  | $ | 735.4 |
Accounts receivable | 1,399.2 |  |  | 1,399.2 |  |  | 1,699.9 |  |  | 1,699.9 |
Accounts payable | 1,105.7 |  |  | 1,105.7 |  |  | 1,292.5 |  |  | 1,292.5 |
Structured accounts payable arrangements | 600.6 |  |  | 600.6 |  |  | 751.2 |  |  | 751.2 |
Short-term debt | 299.8 |  |  | 299.8 |  |  | 224.9 |  |  | 224.9 |
Long-term debt, including current portion | 3,356.8 |  |  | 3,167.0 |  |  | 3,397.2 |  |  | 3,276.5 |

For cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payable, structured accounts payable arrangements and short-term debt, the carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. The fair value of long-term debt, including the current portion, is estimated using quoted market prices for the publicly registered notes and debentures, classified as Level 1 and Level 2, respectively, within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the market liquidity of the debt.
14. Share Repurchases
In 2022, our Board of Directors approved two share repurchase programs for a total of $3.0 billion. Our repurchase programs allow the Company to repurchase shares of our Common Stock through open market purchases, accelerated share repurchase arrangements, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, and have no set expiration date.
On February 24, 2023, pursuant to existing stock repurchase authorizations, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the “2023 ASR Agreement”) with a third-party financial institution to repurchase $300 million of our Common Stock. At inception, we paid the financial institution $300 million and took initial delivery of 4,659,290 shares of our Common Stock, representing an estimated 80% of the total shares expected to be delivered under the 2023 ASR Agreement. In March 2023, the transaction was completed and we received an additional 965,284 shares of Common Stock. In total, 5,624,574 shares were delivered under the 2023 ASR Agreement, at an average purchase price of $53.34 per share.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 3,948,783 and 12,639,719 shares of Common Stock in the open market for approximately $150.0 million and $598.0 million, respectively. This includes the 5,624,574 shares purchased under the 2023 ASR Agreement.
On February 24, 2022, pursuant to existing stock repurchase authorizations, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase (the “2022 ASR Agreement”) agreement with a third-party financial institution to repurchase $400 million of our Common Stock. At inception, we paid the financial institution $400 million and took initial delivery of 7,056,229 shares of our Common Stock. Under the terms of the 2022 ASR Agreement, upon settlement, we would either receive additional shares from the financial institution or be required to deliver additional shares or cash to the financial institution. In the second quarter of 2022, the 2022 ASR Agreement was completed and we paid the financial institution an additional $54.2 million. When combining the initial $400 million paid at the inception of the 2022 ASR Agreement and the cash settlement of $54.2 million at the termination of the 2022 ASR Agreement, we repurchased approximately 7,056,229 shares at an average repurchase price of $64.37 per share.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased 11,666,578 and 29,400,562 shares of Common Stock in the open market for approximately $574.8 million and $1.6 billion, respectively. This includes 7,056,229 shares purchased under the 2022 ASR agreement.
The extent to which we repurchase our shares and the timing of any such repurchases depend on a number of factors, including market and business conditions, the price of our shares, our ability to access capital resources liquidity and corporate, regulatory and other considerations.

16. Related Party Transactions
We enter into transactions and agreements with certain of our non-consolidated companies and other related parties from time to time. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the net amount due to our non-consolidated companies totaled $89.6 million and $56.8 million, respectively.
The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings included the following transactions with our non-consolidated companies:

| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Transactions with related parties included in net sales(a) | $ | 218.5 |  |  | $ | 965.0 |  |  | $ | 979.0 |  |  | $ | 2,378.0 |
Transactions with related parties included in cost of goods sold(b) | 257.7 |  |  | 1,198.8 |  |  | 1,122.9 |  |  | 2,668.2 |

______________________________
(a) Amounts included in net sales primarily relate to sales from our Potash segment to Canpotex.
(b) Amounts included in cost of goods sold primarily relate to purchases from Canpotex and MWSPC by our Mosaic Fertilizantes segment and India and China distribution businesses.
As part of the MWSPC joint venture, we market approximately 25% of MWSPC production. Marketing fees of approximately $3.6 million and $12.9 million, and $7.5 million and $16.6 million are included in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
17. Contingencies
We have described below material judicial and administrative proceedings to which we are subject.
Environmental Matters
We have contingent environmental liabilities that arise principally from three sources: (i) facilities currently or formerly owned by our subsidiaries or their predecessors; (ii) facilities adjacent to currently or formerly owned facilities; and (iii) third-party Superfund or state equivalent sites. At facilities currently or formerly owned by our subsidiaries or their predecessors, the historical use and handling of regulated chemical substances, crop and animal nutrients and additives and by-product or process tailings have resulted in soil, surface water and/or groundwater contamination. Spills or other releases of regulated substances, subsidence from mining operations and other incidents arising out of operations, including accidents, have occurred previously at these facilities, and potentially could occur in the future, possibly requiring us to undertake or fund cleanup or result in monetary damage awards, fines, penalties, other liabilities, injunctions or other court or administrative rulings. In some instances, pursuant to consent orders or agreements with governmental agencies, we are undertaking certain remedial actions or investigations to determine whether remedial action may be required to address contamination. At other locations, we have entered into consent orders or agreements with appropriate governmental agencies to perform required remedial activities that will address identified site conditions. Taking into consideration established accruals of approximately $144.2 million and $185.5 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, expenditures for these known conditions currently are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material effect on our business or financial condition. However, material expenditures could be required in the future to remediate the contamination at known sites or at other current or former sites or as a result of other environmental, health and safety matters. Below is a discussion of the more significant environmental matters.
New Wales Phase II East Stack. In April 2022, we confirmed the presence of a cavity in and liner tear beneath the southern part of the active phosphogypsum stack at the Company’s New Wales facility in Florida. This resulted in process water draining beneath the stack. The circumstances were reported to the FDEP and the EPA. Phase I of the repairs, consisting of stabilizing the cavity by depositing low pressure grout into it, began in July 2022 and now is complete. Phase II work, which consists of injecting high pressure grout beneath the stack to restore the geological confining layer beneath it, began in early in 2023 and now is expected to conclude in the first quarter of 2024.
As of September 30, 2023, we have a reserve of $36.3 million for the estimated repairs. We are unable to estimate at this time potential future additional financial impacts or a range of loss, if any, due to the ongoing evaluation.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

EPA RCRA Initiative. We have certain financial assurance and other obligations under consent decrees and a separate financial assurance arrangement relating to our facilities in Florida and Louisiana. These obligations are discussed in Note 14 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 10-K Report.
Other Environmental Matters. Superfund and equivalent state statutes impose liability without regard to fault or to the legality of a party’s conduct on certain categories of persons who are considered to have contributed to the release of “hazardous substances” into the environment. Under Superfund, or its various state analogues, one party may, under certain circumstances, be required to bear more than its proportionate share of cleanup costs at a site where it has liability if payments cannot be obtained from other responsible parties. Currently, certain of our subsidiaries are involved or concluding involvement at several Superfund or equivalent state sites. Our remedial liability from these sites, alone or in the aggregate, currently is not expected to have a material effect on our business or financial condition. As more information is obtained regarding these sites and the potentially responsible parties involved, this expectation could change.
We believe that, pursuant to several indemnification agreements, our subsidiaries are entitled to at least partial, and in many instances complete, indemnification for the costs that may be expended by us or our subsidiaries to remedy environmental issues at certain facilities. These agreements address issues that resulted from activities occurring prior to our acquisition of facilities or businesses from parties including, but not limited to: ARCO (BP); Beatrice Fund for Environmental Liabilities; Conoco; Conserv; Estech, Inc.; Kaiser Aluminum & Chemical Corporation; Kerr-McGee Inc.; PPG Industries, Inc.; The Williams Companies; CF; and certain other private parties. Our subsidiaries have already received and anticipate receiving amounts pursuant to the indemnification agreements for certain of their expenses incurred to date as well as future anticipated expenditures. We record potential indemnifications as an offset to the established accruals when they are realizable or realized. The failure of an indemnitor to fulfill its obligations could result in future costs that could be material.
Louisiana Parishes Coastal Zone Cases
Several Louisiana parishes and the City of New Orleans have filed lawsuits against hundreds of oil and gas companies seeking regulatory, restoration and compensatory damages in connection with historical oil, gas and sulfur mining and transportation operations in the coastal zone of Louisiana. Mosaic is the corporate successor to certain companies which performed these types of operations in the coastal zone of Louisiana. Mosaic has been named in two of the lawsuits filed to date. In addition, in several other cases, historical oil, gas and sulfur operations which may have been related to Mosaic’s corporate predecessors have been identified in the complaints. Based upon information known to date, Mosaic has contractual indemnification rights against third parties for any loss or liability arising out of these claims pursuant to indemnification agreements entered into by Mosaic’s corporate predecessor(s) with third parties. There may also be insurance contracts which may respond to some or all of the claims. However, the financial ability of the third-party indemnitors, the extent of potential insurance coverage and the extent of potential liability from these claims is currently unknown.
As of October 2022, a memorandum of understanding has been executed by the State of Louisiana and the plaintiff parishes that filed claims against Mosaic and its corporate predecessors on one hand, and Mosaic Global Holdings Inc. and its third-party indemnitors on the other hand which, when fully implemented, will release and dismiss Mosaic and its corporate predecessors from the coastal zone cases. Funding obligations in the memorandum of understanding are expected to be undertaken by third-party indemnitors and/or insurers.
Brazil Legal Contingencies
Our Brazilian subsidiaries are engaged in a number of judicial and administrative proceedings regarding labor, environmental, mining and civil claims that allege aggregate damages and/or fines of approximately $695.4 million. We estimate that our probable aggregate loss with respect to these claims is approximately $76.8 million, which is included in our accrued liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2023. Approximately $507.2 million of the foregoing maximum potential loss relates to labor claims, of which approximately $65.4 million is included in accrued liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2023.
Based on Brazil legislation and the current status of similar labor cases involving unrelated companies, we believe we have recorded adequate loss contingency reserves sufficient to cover our estimate of probable losses. If the status of similar cases involving unrelated companies were to adversely change in the future, our maximum exposure could increase and additional accruals could be required.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Brazil Tax Contingencies
Our Brazilian subsidiaries are engaged in a number of judicial and administrative proceedings relating to various non-income tax matters. We estimate that our maximum potential liability with respect to these matters is approximately $606.9 million, of which $215.1 million is subject to an indemnification agreement entered into with Vale S.A in connection with the Acquisition.
Approximately $381.9 million of the maximum potential liability relates to a Brazilian federal value added tax, PIS and COFINS and tax credit cases, while the majority of the remaining amount relates to various other non-income tax cases. The maximum potential liability can increase with new audits from Brazilian tax authorities. Based on Brazil tax legislation and the current status of similar tax cases involving unrelated taxpayers, we believe we have recorded adequate loss contingency reserves sufficient to cover our estimate of probable losses, which are immaterial. If the status of similar tax cases involving unrelated taxpayer changes in the future, additional accruals could be required.
Other Claims
We also have certain other contingent liabilities with respect to judicial, administrative and arbitration proceedings and claims of third parties, including tax matters, arising in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that any of these contingent liabilities will have a material adverse impact on our business or financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
18. Business Segments
The reportable 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 available for our chief operating decision maker.
We evaluate performance based on the operating earnings of the respective business segments, which includes certain allocations of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses. The segment results may not represent the actual results that would be expected if they were independent, stand-alone businesses. Intersegment eliminations, including profit on intersegment sales, mark-to-market gains/losses on derivatives, debt expenses and the results of the China and India distribution businesses are included within Corporate, Eliminations and Other. For a description of our business segments, see Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Overview of Consolidated Results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
For the three months ended September 30, 2023, Mosaic had a net loss of $(4.2) million, or $(0.01) per diluted share, compared to net income of $841.7 million, or $2.42 per diluted share, for the prior year period. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased 34% compared to the same period of the prior year, driven by lower average selling prices, as discussed further below. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was also negatively impacted by a foreign currency transaction loss of $96.9 million, compared to a foreign currency transaction loss of $61.1 million in the prior year period.
Significant factors affecting our results of operations and financial condition are listed below. Certain of these factors are discussed in more detail in the following sections of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
For the three months ended September 30, 2023, operating results in all of our segments were impacted by lower average sales prices compared to the prior year period. Global markets have softened compared to the prior year period, with a rebound in supply combined with buyers delaying purchases in anticipation of lower prices. Buyer deferral reversed in the later part of the current year period and seasonal price strength was seen in many markets.
27

Our operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were unfavorably impacted in our Phosphate segment compared to the prior year period due to lower average selling prices, driven by the factors described above. This was partially offset by lower raw material costs, primarily sulfur and ammonia.
Our operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were unfavorably impacted in our Potash segment due to lower average sales prices compared to the prior year period, driven by the factors discussed above. Current period operating results were favorably impacted by higher sales volumes compared to the prior year period, as fall demand in North America was stronger in the current year period. Additionally, in the third quarter of the current year, Canpotex shipments were negatively impacted by supply chain challenges and an equipment failure at one of their port facilities. This equipment failure is continuing into the fourth quarter of this year.
Our operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were unfavorably impacted in our Mosaic Fertilizantes segment driven by the factor described above. Sales volumes were up compared to the prior year period as a result of our growth strategy to expand our presence in Brazil.
In addition to the items referenced above,
•During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 3,948,783 shares of Common Stock in the open market for approximately $150.0 million, at an average purchase price of $37.99 per share.
•Countervailing Duty Orders. In April 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce (“DOC”) issued countervailing duty (“CVD”) orders on imports of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco and Russia, in response to petitions filed by Mosaic. The purpose of the petitions was to remedy the injury to the U.S. phosphate fertilizer industry caused by imports that benefit from unfair foreign subsidies, and thereby restore fair competition. CVD orders normally stay in place for at least five years, with possible extensions. Moroccan and Russian producers have initiated actions at the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) seeking to overturn the orders. Mosaic has also made claims contesting certain aspects of DOC’s final determinations that, we believe, failed to capture the full extent of Moroccan and Russian subsidies. These litigation challenges remain underway. Most recently, in July and September 2023, the CIT issued three remand rulings – one addressing DOC’s determination in the CVD investigation of phosphate fertilizers from Russia, one addressing DOC’s determination in the CVD investigation of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco, and one addressing the U.S. International Trade Commission’s determination in antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of phosphate fertilizers from Russia and Morocco – instructing the agencies to reconsider certain aspects of the rulings that were the basis for issuing the CVD orders.
When a CVD order is in place, DOC normally conducts annual administrative reviews, which establish a final CVD assessment rate for past imports during a defined period, and a CVD cash deposit rate for future imports. In November 2023, DOC announced the final results of the first administrative reviews for the CVD orders on phosphate fertilizers for Russia and Morocco, covering the period November 30, 2020 to December 31, 2021. DOC calculated new subsidy rates of 2.12% for Moroccan producer OCP and 28.50% for Russian producer PhosAgro. These determinations are subject to appeal to the CIT. DOC is also conducting administrative reviews covering the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The applicable final CVD assessment rates and cash deposit rates for imports of phosphate fertilizer from Morocco and Russia could change as a result of these various proceedings and potential associated appeals, whether in federal courts or at the World Trade Organization.
Overview of Consolidated Results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
Net earnings attributable to Mosaic for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $799.6 million, or $2.39 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $3.1 billion, or $8.50 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was positively impacted by a foreign currency transaction gain of $103.0 million, compared to $22.4 million in the prior year period.
Results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 reflected the factors discussed above in the discussion for the three months ended September 30, 2023, in addition to those noted below. Certain of these factors are discussed in more detail in the following sections of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

discussion. This was partially offset by lower raw material costs, primarily sulfur and ammonia. Operating results in the current year period were positively impacted by higher finished product sales volumes driven by buyers deferring purchases in the prior year period in anticipation of lower sales prices.
Operating results in our Potash segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were unfavorably impacted by a decrease in the average selling price of potash compared to the prior year period as described above in the three month discussion. Current year operating results were also unfavorably impacted by higher idle plant and maintenance turnaround costs due to the temporary idling of our Colonsay, Saskatchewan mine in the first half of the year due to market conditions and the timing of turnarounds compared to the prior year.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, operating results in our Mosaic Fertilizantes segment were unfavorably impacted by a decrease in average sales prices in the current year compared to the prior year period as discussed above in the threemonth discussion. Sales volumes of finished goods, including performance products, were higher in the current year period compared to the same period in the prior year, due to an increased customer base as a result of our growth strategy to expand our presence in Brazil. Results were also favorably impacted by a decrease in product costs for our distribution business, and lower sulfur and ammonia costs in our production business. Sales volumes of other products, primarily gypsum and acids, were lower than the prior year period driven by unfavorable weather and sulfuric acid availability in the current year period.
Other Highlights
In addition to the items referenced above:
•On January 12, 2023, we completed the sale of the Streamsong Resort® (the “Resort”) and the approximately 7,000 acres on which it sits for net proceeds of $158 million. The Resort is a destination resort and conference center, which we developed in an area of previously mined land as part of our long-term business strategy to maximize the value and utility of our extensive land holdings in Florida. In addition to a hotel and conference center, the Resort includes multiple golf courses, a clubhouse and ancillary facilities. The sale resulted in a gain of $57 million.
•On January 17, 2023, we purchased the other 50% interest of equity of Gulf Sulphur Services (“GSS”), which gives us full ownership and secures control of our sulfur supply chain in the Gulf of Mexico.
•On February 24, 2023, pursuant to existing stock repurchase authorizations, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the “2023 ASR Agreement”) with a third-party financial institution to repurchase $300 million of our Common Stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 12,639,719 shares of Common Stock in the open market for approximately $598.0 million. This includes 5,624,574 shares purchased under the 2023 ASR Agreement.
•In March 2023, we paid a special dividend of $0.25 per share to our stockholders.
•In May 2023, we entered into a 10-year senior unsecured term loan facility whereby we can draw up to $700 million. The term loan matures on May 18, 2033. As of September 30, 2023, we have not drawn any amounts under this facility.

Three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022
The Phosphate segment’s net sales were $1.0 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $1.6 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales in the current year period was primarily due to lower average finished goods sales prices, which had an unfavorable impact of approximately $550 million compared to the prior year period. Net sales were also unfavorably impacted by approximately $40 million, due to lower sales of raw materials.
Our average finished product selling price decreased 38% to $569 per tonne for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $924 per tonne in the prior year period, due to the factors discussed in the Overview.

Gross margin for the Phosphate segment decreased to $87.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $357.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in gross margin in the current year period was primarily due to lower sales prices, which unfavorably impacted gross margin by approximately $550 million. Gross margin was also unfavorably impacted by approximately $80 million due to higher conversion costs, higher cost of blended rock and other product costs. This was partially offset by decreased raw material prices in the current period, driven by sulfur and ammonia, which favorably impacted gross margin by approximately $290 million. In addition, lower costs of approximately $50 million, primarily related to the timing of turnarounds and idle costs in the prior year that did not repeat in the current year; $10 million of non-product sales such as ammonia, sulfur and phosphate rock, and $10 million related to lower freight and logistics costs in the current year period compared to the prior year, also partially offset this gross margin variance.
The average consumed price for ammonia for our North America operations decreased 47% to $353 per tonne for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $665 in the same period a year ago. The average consumed sulfur price for our North America operations decreased 64%, to $156 per long ton, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $436 in the same period a year ago. The purchase prices of these raw materials are driven by global supply and demand. The consumed ammonia and sulfur prices also include transportation, transformation and storage costs.
The average consumed cost of purchased and produced phosphate rock increased to $81 per tonne for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $68 per tonne for the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to higher fixed cost absorption caused by lower production volume in the current year period. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our North America phosphate rock production decreased to 2.4 million tonnes from 2.9 million tonnes during the same period of the prior year, due to geology of rock and operational challenges.
The Phosphate segment’s production of crop nutrient dry concentrates and animal feed ingredients decreased 4% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from the prior year period. Our operating rate for processed phosphate production decreased to 64% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from 67% for the same period in 2022, primarily due to an equipment failure at our Faustina, Louisiana location. We expect the repairs to be completed during the fourth quarter of this year.
Nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022
The Phosphate segment’s net sales were $3.7 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $4.9 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower finished product selling prices in the current year period, which unfavorably impacted net sales by approximately $1.5 billion compared to the prior year period. This was partially offset by higher sales volumes of finished goods, which favorably impacted net sales by approximately $350 million. Net sales were also unfavorably impacted by approximately $100 million due to lower raw materials sales driven by lower sales prices and volumes of sulfur and ammonia.
Our average finished product selling price was $642 per tonne for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $308 per tonne from the same period a year ago, due to the factors discussed in the Overview.
The Phosphate segment’s sales volumes of finished products increased by 8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to the factors discussed in the Overview.
Gross margin for the Phosphate segment decreased to $563.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $1.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in gross margin in the current year period was primarily due to the impact of lower finished product prices of approximately $1.5 billion compared to the prior year period. Gross margin was also unfavorably impacted by approximately $170 million, due to increased conversion and other costs resulting from higher maintenance and water management costs in the current period. Increased cost of blended rock unfavorably impacted gross margin by approximately $70 million, as discussed below. These increases were partially offset by lower raw material costs of sulfur and ammonia as discussed below, which impacted gross margin by approximately $500 million. Gross margin was also favorably impacted by approximately $140 million, due to higher sales volumes, and lower costs of approximately $80 million, related to the timing of idle plant and turnaround costs in the current year period.
The average consumed price for ammonia for our North America operations was $449 per tonne for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $583 per tonne in the same period a year ago. The average consumed price for sulfur for our North America operations decreased to $191 per long ton for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $400 per long ton in the same period a year ago. The purchase prices of these raw materials are driven by global supply and demand.

Gross margin for the Potash segment decreased to $210.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $798.7 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease in gross margin in the current year period is primarily due to lower selling prices, which negatively impacted gross margin by approximately $830 million compared to the prior year period. Higher idle and turnaround costs negatively impacted gross margin by approximately $20 million compared to the prior year, largely due to the timing of the turnaround at our Esterhazy, Saskatchewan mine. These impacts were partially offset by a reduction in Canadian resource taxes and royalties of $195 million compared to the prior year, as discussed below. Gross margin was also favorably impacted by approximately $40 million, due to higher sales volumes and foreign currency impacts of approximately $30 million in the current year period, compared to the same period in the prior year.
We had expense of $85.6 million from Canadian resource taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $258.4 million in the same period a year ago. Canadian royalty expense decreased to $8.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $30.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The fluctuations in Canadian resource taxes and royalties are a result of a decrease in our sales revenue and margins.
Our operating rate for potash production was 66% for the current year period, compared to 81% in the prior year period. The decreased operating rate reflects the summer turnaround at our Esterhazy, Saskatchewan mine in the current year period.
Nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022
The Potash segment’s net sales decreased to $2.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $4.1 billion in the same period a year ago. The decrease was due to lower selling prices, which had an unfavorable impact on net sales of approximately $1.7 billion. This was partially offset by higher sales volumes of approximately $110 million.
Our average potash selling price was $393 per tonne for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $653 per tonne for the same period a year ago, due to the factors discussed above in the Overview.
The Potash segment’s sales volumes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased 1% compared to the same period a year ago.
Gross margin for the Potash segment decreased to $959.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $2.3 billion for the same period in the prior year. Gross margin was unfavorably impacted by approximately $1.7 billion due to the decrease in average selling prices. Gross margin was also unfavorably impacted by increased idle and turnaround costs of approximately $60 million, largely due to the idling of our Colonsay, Saskatchewan mine during the first half of the current year, and higher product costs driven by lower production volumes and product mix of approximately $20 million compared to the prior year period. This was partially offset by lower Canadian resource taxes and royalties of approximately $437 million in the current year period, as discussed below, and by slightly higher sales volumes, which had a favorable impact on net sales of approximately $30 million.
We incurred $301.4 million in Canadian resource taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $690.1 million in the same period a year ago. Canadian royalty expense decreased to $40.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $89.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The fluctuations in Canadian resource taxes and royalties are due to the decreases in our sales revenues and margins.
Our operating rate was 68% for the current year period, compared to 82% in the prior year period. The decreased operating rate in the current year period reflects the temporary idling of our Colonsay, Saskatchewan mine during the first half of the year due to market conditions, and down time for maintenance turnarounds at our Esterhazy, Saskatchewan and Carlsbad, New Mexico mines.

Three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022
The Mosaic Fertilizantes segment’s net sales decreased to $1.7 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $2.6 billion in the same period a year ago. The decrease in net sales was due to lower finished product sales prices, which unfavorably impacted net sales by approximately $1.0 billion, and lower sales prices of other products, primarily acids, which unfavorably impacted net sales by approximately $60 million. This was partially offset by higher finished goods sales volumes, which had a favorable impact of approximately $190 million, and favorable foreign currency impacts of approximately $20 million.
Our average finished product selling price was $566 per tonne for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $931 per tonne for the same period a year ago, due to the decrease in global sales prices as discussed in the Overview.
The Mosaic Fertilizantes segment’s sales volumes of finished products increased 8% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period a year ago, due to increased demand in our distribution business.

Gross margin for the Mosaic Fertilizantes segment decreased to $106.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $348.3 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to an unfavorable impact of approximately $1.0 billion related to the decrease in average selling prices during the current year period, compared to the prior year period, partially offset by higher sales volumes, which favorably impacted gross margin by approximately $50 million. Lower costs had a favorable impact of $750 million, driven by a decrease in product costs for our distribution business, and lower sulfur and ammonia costs in our production business.
The average consumed price for ammonia for our Brazilian operations decreased to $667 per tonne for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $1,267 per tonne in the prior year period. The average consumed sulfur price for our Brazilian operations was $219 per long ton for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $432 per long ton in the prior year period. The purchase prices of ammonia and sulfur are driven by global supply and demand, and also include transportation, transformation and storage costs.
The Mosaic Fertilizantes segment’s production of crop nutrient dry concentrates and animal feed ingredients increased 13% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our phosphate operating rate increased to 81%, compared to 76% in the same period of the prior year.
For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our Brazilian phosphate rock production was comparable with the prior year period, at 1.0 million tonnes.
Nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
The Mosaic Fertilizantes segment’s net sales were $4.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $6.4 billion in the prior year period. In the current period, net sales were unfavorably impacted by approximately $2.1 billion due to lower finished goods sales prices, partially offset by the impact of higher finished goods sales volumes of approximately $470 million. Net sales were also unfavorably impacted by decreased revenues from other products, primarily acids, of approximately $270 million, due to lower selling prices.
The average finished product selling price decreased $318 per tonne to $597 per tonne for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $915 per tonne in the prior year period, primarily due to the decrease in global prices mentioned in the Overview.
The Mosaic Fertilizantes segment’s sales volume increased to 7.5 million tonnes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from 7.0 million tonnes in the same period a year ago, due to increased demand in our distribution business.
Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased to $117.8 million from $1.0 billion in the same period in the prior year. In the current year period, gross margin was unfavorably impacted by approximately $2.1 billion due to lower average selling prices. Gross margin was also unfavorably impacted by lower sales volumes and sales prices of other products, primarily acids, of approximately $40 million, and unfavorable foreign currency impacts of approximately $35 million. These impacts were partially offset by approximately $1.2 billion related to lower product costs, primarily reductions in material purchases by our distribution business and lower raw materials costs in the current year compared to the prior year period. Sales volumes also favorably impacted gross margin by approximately $40 million in the current year period.
The Mosaic Fertilizantes segment’s production of crop nutrient dry concentrates and animal feed ingredients decreased 3% compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our phosphate operating rate was 77%, compared to 84% in the same period of the prior year.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 2023, our Brazilian phosphate rock production decreased slightly to 2.9 million tonnes, from 3.0 million tonnes in the prior year period.
Corporate, Eliminations and Other
In addition to our three operating segments, we assign certain costs to Corporate, Eliminations and Other, which is presented separately in Note 18 to our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Corporate, Eliminations and Other includes the results of the China and India distribution businesses, intersegment eliminations, including profit on intersegment sales, unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on derivatives and debt expenses. The prior year period also included the results of operations for the Resort.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, gross margin for Corporate, Eliminations and Other was $5.7 million, compared to $(2.9) million for the same period in the prior year. Gross margin was favorably impacted by the elimination of profit on intersegment sales in the current year period of approximately $45 million, compared to the prior year of approximately $105 million. Gross margin was also positively impacted due to favorable product costs in our distribution operations in China and India in the current year period. Sales in China and India, collectively, resulted in revenue of $204.1 million and gross margin of $12.4 million in the current year period, compared to revenue of $158.6 million and gross margin of $(13.7) million in the prior year period. Gross margin was unfavorably impacted by a net unrealized loss on derivatives of approximately $45 million in the current year period, compared to a net unrealized loss of approximately $76 million in the prior year period.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, gross margin for Corporate, Eliminations and Other was $10.6 million, compared to $(62.8) million for the same period in the prior year. Gross margin was favorably impacted by lower elimination of profit on intersegment sales in the current year period of approximately $100 million, compared to the prior year period of approximately $(152) million. Gross margin was unfavorably impacted by a net unrealized loss on derivatives of approximately $12 million in the current year period, compared to a net unrealized loss of approximately $35 million in the prior year period. Gross margin was impacted due to lower average selling prices in our distribution operations in China and India in the current year period. Sales in China and India, collectively, resulted in revenue of $642.6 million and gross margin of $(42.7) million in the current year period, compared to revenue of $769.5 million and gross margin of $137.6 million in the prior year period. The prior year period also included gross margin of approximately $15 million related to the Resort.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $4.6 million compared to the same period of prior year, primarily due to approximately $17 million of lower expenses for consulting and professional services related to executing on our strategic initiatives. This was partially offset by higher compensation and incentive expense of approximately $10 million in the current period compared to the prior year period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $12.4 million compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to higher consulting and professional services costs of approximately $15 million in the current year period.

Other Operating Expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we had other operating expense of $143.9 million, compared to $222.8 million for the same period of the prior year. The change from the prior year was primarily due to approximately $71 million related to an increase in environmental reserves in the prior year period.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had other operating expense of $214.0 million, compared to $337.6 million for the same period of the prior year. The change from the prior year period relates to a gain on the sale of the Resort of approximately $57 million, and an increase in environmental reserves in the prior year period compared to the current year period of approximately $55 million.
Interest Expense, Net
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, net interest expense decreased to $17.4 million and $94.5 million, compared to $30.6 million and $104.0 million in the same period of the prior year. The change from the prior year is driven by higher interest income primarily due to interest received in the current year period of $10 million on tax credit refunds from our Brazilian subsidiaries.
Foreign Currency Transaction Gain
We recorded a foreign currency transaction loss of $96.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to a loss of $61.1 million for the same period in the prior year. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the loss was the result of the effect of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Brazilian real on significant intercompany loans and U.S. dollar-denominated payables held by our Brazilian subsidiaries, and the impact of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar on significant intercompany loans.
We recorded a foreign currency transaction gain of $103.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared $22.4 million for the same period in the prior year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the gain was the result of the effect of the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Brazilian real on significant intercompany loans and U.S. dollar-denominated payables held by our Brazilian subsidiaries.
Other Expense
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had other expense of $50.1 million and $66.1 million compared to $2.3 million and $37.8 million for the same periods in the prior year. The current year expense for the three month period primarily related to a settlement loss on the termination of a pension plan of approximately $42 million, and approximately $6 million of realized losses on the marketable securities held in the RCRA Trusts. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, other expense primarily related to the settlement loss of approximately $42 million mentioned above and approximately $12 million of realized losses on the marketable securities held in the RCRA Trusts.
Equity in Net Earnings of Nonconsolidated Companies
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had equity in net earnings of nonconsolidated companies of $15.8 million and $60.0 million compared to $72.1 million and $138.7 million for the same periods in the prior year. These results were primarily related to the operations of MWSPC, which was unfavorably impacted by lower selling prices for its products in the current year periods.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. In preparing the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make various judgments, estimates and assumptions that could have a significant impact on the results reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We base these estimates on historical experience and other assumptions believed to be reasonable by management under the circumstances. Changes in these estimates could have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The basis for our financial statement presentation, including our significant accounting estimates, is summarized in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report. A summary description of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 10-K Report. Further detailed information regarding our critical accounting estimates is included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition in our 10-K Report.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $591.0 million, short-term debt of $299.8 million, long-term debt, including current maturities, of approximately $3.4 billion, and stockholders’ equity of approximately $12.2 billion. We have a target liquidity buffer of up to $3.0 billion, including cash and available committed and uncommitted credit lines. We expect our liquidity to fluctuate from time to time, especially in the first quarter of each year, to manage through the seasonality of our business. We also target debt leverage ratios that are consistent with investment grade credit metrics. Our capital allocation priorities include maintaining our target investment grade metrics and financial strength, sustaining our assets, including ensuring the safety of our employees and reliability of our assets, investing to grow our business, either through organic growth or taking advantage of strategic opportunities, and returning excess cash to shareholders, including paying our

dividend. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we returned cash to shareholders through share repurchases of $606.0 million and cash dividends of $286.5 million, and invested $1.0 billion in capital expenditures.
Funds generated by operating activities, available cash and cash equivalents, and our credit facilities continue to be our most significant sources of liquidity. We believe funds generated from the expected results of operations and available cash, cash equivalents and borrowings under our committed and uncommitted credit facilities, as needed, will be sufficient to finance our operations, including our capital expenditures, existing strategic initiatives, debt repayments and expected dividend payments, for at least the next 12 months. There can be no assurance, however, that we will continue to generate cash flows at or above current levels. As of September 30, 2023, we had $2.49 billion available under our $2.50 billion committed revolving credit facility, approximately $1.3 billion available under our uncommitted facilities and had $2.2 billion available under our $2.5 billion commercial paper program that is backed by the revolving credit facility. We view amounts borrowed under our commercial paper program as a reduction of availability under our revolving credit facility. Our credit facilities, including the revolving credit facility, require us to maintain certain financial ratios, as discussed in Note 11 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 10-K Report. We were in compliance with these ratios as of September 30, 2023.
All of our cash equivalents are diversified in highly rated investment vehicles. Our cash and cash equivalents are held either in the U.S. or held by non-U.S. subsidiaries and are not subject to significant foreign currency exposures, as the majority are held in investments denominated in U.S. dollars as of September 30, 2023. These funds may create foreign currency transaction gains or losses, however, depending on the functional currency of the entity holding the cash. In addition, there are no significant restrictions that would preclude us from bringing these funds back to the U.S., aside from withholding taxes.
The following table represents a comparison of the net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities, and net cash used in or provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022:

(in millions) | Nine months ended |  |  |  |
September 30, |  | 2023-2022
Cash Flow | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | Change |  | Percent
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 1,869.1 |  |  | $ | 2,980.1 |  |  | $ | (1,111.0) |  |  | (37) | %
Net cash used in investing activities | (955.0) |  |  | (916.5) |  |  | (38.5) |  |  | 4 | %
Net cash used in financing activities | (1,069.8) |  |  | (2,105.7) |  |  | 1,035.9 |  |  | (49) | %

Operating Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was $1.9 billion, compared to $3.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our results of operations, after non-cash adjustments to net earnings, contributed $1.6 billion to cash flows from operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $4.1 billion as computed on the same basis for the prior year period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had a favorable change in assets and liabilities of $252.4 million, compared to an unfavorable change of $1.1 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
The change in assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily driven by favorable impacts from decreases in accounts receivable of $332.6 million and inventories of $1.1 billion, partially offset by an increase in other current and noncurrent assets of $347.3 million and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $926.5 million. The decrease in accounts receivable was primarily related to lower selling prices at the end of the quarter compared to the end of the prior year. The decrease in inventories was primarily due to lower inventory volumes, due to seasonality and lower raw material costs in the current year period. The increase in current and noncurrent assets was primarily due to an increase in taxes receivable and cloud computing costs in the current year. The decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities was primarily related to a decrease in raw material purchase prices, lower customer prepayments due to seasonality, the payment of taxes and payment of dividends and payment of incentive compensation related to 2022.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $955.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $916.5 million for the same period a year ago. We had capital expenditures of $1.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30,

2023, compared to $906.8 million in the prior year period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we completed the sale of the Resort for net proceeds of $158.4 million. During that period, we also purchased the other 50% equity of GSS for $41.0 million. GSS is now wholly owned by Mosaic.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1.1 billion, compared to $2.1 billion for the same period in the prior year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we made repurchases of our Common Stock at an aggregate cost of $606.0 million and paid dividends of $286.5 million. We also made net payments on our structured accounts payable arrangements of $176.6 million and payments on long-term debt of $44.8 million. We received net proceeds from short-term debt of $75.2 million.
Debt Instruments, Guarantees and Related Covenants
See Notes 11 and 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 10-K Report.
Financial Assurance Requirements
In addition to various operational and environmental regulations related to our Phosphate segment, we are subject to financial assurance requirements. In various jurisdictions in which we operate, particularly Florida and Louisiana, we are required to pass a financial strength test or provide credit support, typically in the form of surety bonds, letters of credit, certificates of deposit or trust funds. Further information regarding financial assurance requirements is included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition in our 10-K Report, under “EPA RCRA Initiative,” and in Note 8 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Environmental, Health, Safety and Security Matters
Federal Jurisdiction Over “Waters of the United States.” The Clean Water Act (“CWA” or the “Act”) authorizes federal jurisdiction over “navigable waters,” defined in the Act as “waters of the United States” and often abbreviated as “WOTUS.” As it relates to Mosaic’s operations and facilities, the scope of the term WOTUS dictates legal requirements for our national pollutant discharge elimination system wastewater discharge permits and for impacts to surface waters and wetlands associated with our phosphate mining operations. A broad definition of WOTUS, and thus the scope of federal jurisdiction, increases the time required to identify wetlands and waterways subject to federal regulatory and permitting requirements, and the amount and type of mitigation required to compensate for impacts to jurisdictional WOTUS caused by our mining operations.
On May 25, 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its opinion in the Sackett v EPA case, which significantly limits water features that can be considered WOTUS and therefore subject to CWA Section 404 jurisdiction. The Court held the CWA extends only to those wetlands that are “as a practical matter indistinguishable from waters of the United States.” This requires “first, that the adjacent [body of water constitutes] . . . ‘water[s] of the United States,’ (i.e., a relatively permanent body of water connected to traditional interstate navigable waters); and second, that the wetland has a continuous surface connection with that water, making it difficult to determine where the ‘water’ ends and the ‘wetland’ begins.” The Sackett decision is binding nationwide as to the determination of which wetlands and waters are subject to the CWA.
The Sackett decision invalidated the January 18, 2023 definition of WOTUS promulgated by the EPA which had expanded federal jurisdiction. In response to Sackett, on August 29, 2023, the EPA issued a final rule intended to conform its definition of WOTUS to the Sackett decision. The conforming rule became effective on September 8, 2023.
As a result of ongoing litigation, the January 2023 WOTUS rule, as “conformed” by the September 2023 rule, is being implemented only in 23 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Territories. In the other 27 states, WOTUS is interpreted consistent with the pre-2015 regulatory regime and the Supreme Court's Sackett decision.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to the impact of fluctuations in the relative value of currencies, the impact of interest rates, fluctuations in the purchase price of natural gas, ammonia and sulfur consumed in operations and changes in freight costs, as well as changes in the market value of our financial instruments. We periodically enter into derivatives in order to mitigate our foreign currency risks, interest rate risks and the effects of changing commodity prices, but not for speculative purposes. See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 10-K Report and Note 12 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
Due to the global nature of our operations, we are exposed to currency exchange rate changes which may cause fluctuations in our earnings and cash flows. Our primary foreign currency exposures are the Canadian dollar and Brazilian real. To reduce economic risk and volatility on expected cash flows that are denominated in the Canadian dollar and Brazilian real, we use financial instruments that may include forward contracts, zero-cost collars and/or futures. Mosaic hedges cash flows on a declining basis, up to 18 months for the Canadian dollar and up to 12 months for the Brazilian real.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of our major foreign currency exchange contracts was $(22.8) million and $(27.3) million, respectively. The table below provides information about Mosaic’s significant foreign exchange derivatives.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We have included information about legal and environmental proceedings in Note 17 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report. This information is incorporated herein by reference.
We are also subject to the following legal and environmental proceedings in addition to those described in Note 17 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report:
Countervailing Duty Orders. Countervailing Duty Orders. In April 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce (“DOC”) issued countervailing duty (“CVD”) orders on imports of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco and Russia, in response to petitions filed by Mosaic. The purpose of the petitions was to remedy the injury to the U.S. phosphate fertilizer industry caused by imports that benefit from unfair foreign subsidies, and thereby restore fair competition. CVD orders normally stay in place for at least five years, with possible extensions. Moroccan and Russian producers have initiated actions at the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) seeking to overturn the orders. Mosaic has also made claims contesting certain aspects of DOC’s final determinations that, we believe, failed to capture the full extent of Moroccan and Russian subsidies. These litigation challenges remain underway. Most recently, in July and September 2023, the CIT issued three remand rulings – one addressing DOC’s determination in the CVD investigation of phosphate fertilizers from Russia, one addressing DOC’s determination in the CVD investigation of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco, and one addressing the U.S. International Trade Commission’s determination in antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of phosphate fertilizers from Russia and Morocco – instructing the agencies to reconsider certain aspects of the rulings that were the basis for issuing the CVD orders.
When a CVD order is in place, DOC normally conducts annual administrative reviews, which establish a final CVD assessment rate for past imports during a defined period, and a CVD cash deposit rate for future imports. In November 2023, DOC announced the final results of the first administrative reviews for the CVD orders on phosphate fertilizers for Russia and Morocco, covering the period November 30, 2020 to December 31, 2021. DOC calculated new subsidy rates of 2.12% for Moroccan producer OCP and 28.50% for Russian producer PhosAgro. These determinations are subject to appeal to the CIT. DOC is also conducting administrative reviews covering the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The applicable final CVD assessment rates and cash deposit rates for imports of phosphate fertilizer from Morocco and Russia could change as a result of these various proceedings and potential associated appeals, whether in federal courts or at the World Trade Organization.
The South Pasture Extension Mine Litigation. On January 8, 2020, the Hardee County Mining Coordinator issued a Notice of Violation (“NOV”) for the failure by Mosaic to proceed with reclamation of two designated reclamation units within the South Pasture Mine footprint. These two reclamation units comprise 166 acres of mined lands. The NOV cites noncompliance with the County Land Development Regulations and with the conditions of Development of Regional Impact (“DRI”) Development Order 12-21 that was issued in 2012 to authorize continued mining at the South Pasture mine, continued operation of the South Pasture beneficiation plant, and mining at the South Pasture mine extension. Through the NOV, the county requested that Mosaic submit a revised reclamation plan and schedule to demonstrate when initial reclamation activities would be completed for the two reclamation units identified in the NOV.
The delay in meeting the required reclamation schedule at the two reclamation units is tied to the idling and eventual shutdown of the Plant City fertilizer plant and the idling of the South Pasture mine beneficiation plant. The Plant City Facility was first idled in late 2017. In June 2019, Mosaic announced that the Plant City Facility would be closed permanently.
Given the relationship between the Plant City fertilizer plant and the South Pasture beneficiation plant, and facing adverse market conditions, Mosaic idled the South Pasture beneficiation plant in September 2018. Idling that plant resulted in no tailings sand being produced by the processing of phosphate matrix. As a result, there was no tailings sand available for use in backfilling reclamation at the South Pasture mine, and specifically, the two reclamation units identified in the county’s January 8, 2020 NOV.
On March 10, 2020, Mosaic filed an “Application for Waiver and Reclamation Schedule Extension” to secure Board of County Commissioners (“BOCC”) approval of extended reclamation deadlines for the South Pasture mine. To obtain waiver relief from the BOCC, a quasi-judicial hearing would be required.
48

Table of Contents

Extensive negotiations between Mosaic and county legal and technical staff resulted in an agreement that involved two separate but related actions: (1) secure a waiver and reclamation schedule extension through formal action by the BOCC at a quasi-judicial public hearing; and (2) enter into a settlement agreement that would require payment of a civil penalty by Mosaic for the non-compliance in meeting the required reclamation deadlines of the South Pasture Mine Development Order and the County Mining Ordinance. The settlement agreement would also be presented and acted upon at a formal public hearing before the BOCC.
On May 7, 2020, a quasi-public judicial hearing was held before the Hardee County BOCC. At that hearing, the BOCC voted unanimously to issue a waiver of the applicable reclamation deadlines of the South Pasture Development Order and the county ordinance for three specific reclamation areas of the South Pasture mine. The waiver also included a negotiated alternative reclamation schedule that extends the deadline for completion of reclamation until the end of 2023. At that same hearing, the BOCC approved a settlement agreement that resolved all outstanding non-compliance associated with reclamation obligations at the South Pasture mine and required Mosaic to pay an agreed settlement amount of $249,000.
Mosaic has satisfied the payment obligation of the settlement agreement and continues to implement the alternative reclamation schedule, as required. Monitoring programs have been put in place to ensure continued compliance with the waiver and settlement agreement.
Cruz Litigation. On August 27, 2020, a putative class action complaint was filed in the Circuit Court of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit in Hillsborough County, Florida against our wholly owned subsidiary, Mosaic Global Operations Inc., and two unrelated co-defendants. The complaint alleges claims related to elevated levels of radiation at two manufactured housing communities located on reclaimed mining land in Mulberry, Polk County, Florida, allegedly due to phosphate mining and reclamation activities occurring decades ago. Plaintiffs seek monetary damages, including punitive damages, injunctive relief requiring remediation of their properties, and a medical monitoring program funded by the defendants. On October 14, 2021, the court substantially granted a motion to dismiss that we filed late in 2020, with leave for the plaintiffs to amend their complaint.
On November 3, 2021, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint and, in response, Mosaic filed a motion to dismiss that complaint with prejudice on November 15, 2021. On December 23, 2021, plaintiffs opposed that motion and Mosaic replied to that opposition on January 26, 2022. On April 6, 2022, the court heard argument on the motions to dismiss filed by Mosaic and each other co-defendant. In late March 2023, the court denied defendants’ motions to dismiss.
We intend to continue to vigorously defend this matter.
Faustina Plant Risk Management Plan. On September 14, 2022, EPA Region 6 issued a Notice of Potential Violation and Opportunity to Confer (“NOPVOC”) regarding compliance of our Faustina Plant with Section 112(r) of the Federal Clean Air Act and 40 C.F.R. Part 68, commonly known as the Risk Management Plan Rule (“RMP Rule”). The NOPVOC relates to a compliance evaluation inspection conducted by the EPA at the Faustina plant from February 22-25, 2022 and alleges violations of the RMP Rule. We conferred with the EPA regarding the allegations in the NOPVOC on November 30, 2022. We are continuing discussions with the agency regarding settlement, including negotiation of a consent agreement and final order.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Important risk factors that apply to us are outlined in Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “10-K Report”). In addition to these risk factors, we include the following updates:
Operational Risks
Our operating results are highly dependent upon and fluctuate based upon business and economic conditions and governmental policies affecting the agricultural industry in which we or our customers operate. These factors are outside of our control and may significantly affect our profitability.
The most important of these factors are:
•weather and field conditions (particularly during periods of traditionally high crop nutrients application);
•quantities of crop nutrients imported and exported;
•current and projected inventories and prices, which are heavily influenced by U.S. exports and world-wide markets; and
•governmental policies, including farm and biofuel policies, which may directly or indirectly influence the number of acres planted, the level of inventories, the mix of crops planted or crop prices or otherwise negatively affect our operating results.
International market conditions and the success of our countervailing duty petitions, which are also outside of our control, may also significantly influence our operating results. The international market for crop nutrients is influenced by such factors as the relative value of the U.S. dollar and its impact upon the cost of importing crop nutrients, foreign agricultural policies, including subsidy policies, the existence of, or changes in, import or foreign currency exchange barriers in certain foreign markets, changes in the hard currency demands of certain countries and other regulatory policies of foreign governments, as well as the laws and policies of the U.S. affecting foreign trade and investment, including use of tariffs. In April 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce (“DOC”) issued countervailing duty (“CVD”) orders on imports of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco and Russia, in response to petitions filed by Mosaic. The purpose of the petitions was to remedy the injury to the U.S. phosphate fertilizer industry caused by imports that benefit from unfair foreign subsidies, and thereby restore fair competition. CVD orders normally stay in place for at least five years, with possible extensions. Moroccan and Russian producers have initiated actions at the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) seeking to overturn the orders. Mosaic has also made claims contesting certain aspects of DOC’s final determinations that, we believe, failed to capture the full extent of Moroccan and Russian subsidies. These litigation challenges remain underway. Most recently, in July and September 2023, the CIT issued three remand rulings – one addressing DOC’s determination in the CVD investigation of phosphate fertilizers from Russia, one addressing DOC’s determination in the CVD investigation of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco, and one addressing the U.S. International Trade Commission’s determination in antidumping and countervailing duty investigations of phosphate fertilizers from Russia and Morocco – instructing the agencies to reconsider certain aspects of the rulings that were the basis for issuing the CVD orders.
When a CVD order is in place, DOC normally conducts annual administrative reviews, which establish a final CVD assessment rate for past imports during a defined period, and a CVD cash deposit rate for future imports. In November 2023, DOC announced the final results of the first administrative reviews for the CVD orders on phosphate fertilizers for Russia and Morocco, covering the period November 30, 2020 to December 31, 2021. DOC calculated new subsidy rates of 2.12% for Moroccan producer OCP and 28.50% for Russian producer PhosAgro. These determinations are subject to appeal to the CIT. DOC is also conducting administrative reviews covering the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The applicable final CVD assessment rates and cash deposit rates for imports of phosphate fertilizer from Morocco and Russia could change as a result of these various proceedings and potential associated appeals, whether in federal courts or at the World Trade Organization. A reversal of, or change in, the ITC's or DOC's prior determination in the CVD investigations could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Pursuant to our employee stock plans relating to the grant of employee stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock unit awards and other equity-based awards, we have granted and may in the future grant employee stock options to purchase shares of our Common Stock for which the purchase price may be paid by means of delivery to us by the optionee of shares of our Common Stock that are already owned by the optionee (at a value equal to market value on the date of the option exercise).
