           March 03, 2025 04:30 PM Eastern Standard Time 
           DENVER--( BUSINESS WIRE)--Intrepid  Potash, Inc. (NYSE:IPI) ("Intrepid", the "Company", "we", "us" and  "our") today reports its financial results for the fourth quarter and  full-year of 2024.  
   Key Financial & Operational Highlights for the Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2024  
 
 -  Total sales of $55.8 million in the fourth quarter and $254.7 million for the full-year 2024.  
 -  Net loss of $207.0 million and adjusted net loss(1) of $1.4  million in the fourth quarter, and net loss $212.8 million and adjusted  net loss of $3.7 million for the full-year 2024. Our results were  impacted by the following non-cash charges we recorded in the fourth  quarter of 2024: 
-  $199.0 million of non-cash expense related to the establishment of a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets;  
 -  $6.4 million in non-cash impairment expense related to our Intrepid South sand project and other oilfield equipment; and  
 -  $1.2 million in non-cash impairment expense at our East facility.  
     -  Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $8.6 million for the fourth quarter, bringing our full-year 2024 adjusted EBITDA to $35.5 million.  
 -  Cash flow from operations of $7.6 million in the fourth quarter,  bringing our full-year 2024 cash flow from operations to $72.5 million,  which includes the $45 million payment received from XTO in the first  quarter of 2024.  
 -  Potash production of 117 thousand tons and 295 thousand tons in the fourth quarter and full-year 2024, respectively.  
 -  Trio® production of 67 thousand tons and 251 thousand tons in the fourth quarter and full-year 2024, respectively.  
   Liquidity & Investments  
 
 -  We ended 2024 with cash and cash equivalents of approximately $41.3  million and had no outstanding borrowings on our $150 million revolving  credit facility.  
 -  As of February 28, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately  $43.7 million and we had no outstanding borrowings on our credit  facility.  
   Capital Expenditures  
 
 -  Our capital expenditures for 2024 totaled $38.7 million, which included  the completion of Phase Two of the new brine injection pipeline at HB  and a new primary pond at Wendover. For 2025, we expect our capital  expenditures will be in the range of $36 to $42 million, with the  majority of this being sustaining capital, including the test well at HB  AMAX described below.  
   Potash Asset Revitalization Process & Key Projects for 2025  
   Overview of the Potash Asset Revitalization Process  
 
 -  In 2022, we started a multiyear potash asset revitalization process with  goals of maximizing our brine availability and increasing our brine  residence time to develop higher-grade extraction brine. With the  successful commissioning of our HB pipeline and new primary pond in  Wendover, we have now commissioned all key projects and are beginning to  see the benefits through increased potash production and an improvement  in our unit economics.  
   Our 2024 potash production totaled 295 thousand tons, a 32% improvement  compared to 2023, as improved brine grades and accelerated second half  2024 production resulted in calendar year production ahead of our  expectations. Due to the accelerated second half production, our 2024  production figure includes approximately 15 thousand tons of potash that  we previously forecast for production in the first half of 2025.  
   Recent Highlights of the Potash Asset Revitalization Process  
 
 -  HB Solution Mine - Phase Two of New Brine Injection Pipeline:  After commissioning Phase Two of the new brine injection pipeline in the  third quarter of 2024, our brine injection rates have averaged  approximately 1,900 gallons per minute ("GPM").  
 -  The new pipeline has the capability to inject at rates of approximately  2,000 GPM. Over the course of the year, this would represent an increase  of approximately 100% compared to our 2024 injection rates prior to  commissioning Phase Two, and an increase of approximately 30% compared  to the previous highs last seen in 2014. A brine injection to extraction  ratio above 1.0x is key for sustaining higher levels of production, and  maintaining 2,000 GPM of brine injection over the course of a year  would result in this ratio being approximately 2.0x (i.e., brine  injection of ~1.1 billion gallons vs. brine extraction of ~550 million  gallons).  
   Key 2025 Project  
 
 -  HB Solution Mine - AMAX Cavern: We are continuing the permitting  process to drill a sample well into the AMAX Cavern at HB in order to  measure the brine chemistry of the existing cavern. AMAX is the largest  cavern in the HB system and is expected to serve as an expansion area to  the original HB caverns which have been in service for over ten years.  We are close to completing the permitting process and expect to drill  the well in the second quarter of 2025. We expect to spend approximately  $4.5 million on the test well, with the design of the well also meeting  the specifications needed to serve as a future extraction well.  
   Consolidated Results, Management Commentary, & Outlook  
   Intrepid generated fourth quarter and full-year 2024 sales of  approximately $55.8 million and $254.7 million, respectively, which  compares to fourth quarter and full-year 2023 sales of approximately  $56.7 million and $279.1 million, respectively. The decrease in our 2024  sales was primarily driven by lower volumes and prices in our potash  segment, while our Trio® and oilfield solutions segments  delivered modest sales growth in 2024 compared to 2023. During the  fourth quarter of 2024, Intrepid generated a GAAP net loss of $207.0  million, a non-GAAP adjusted net loss(1) of $1.4 million, and adjusted EBITDA(1) of $8.6 million, bringing our full-year 2024 figures to a GAAP net loss of $212.8 million, a non-GAAP adjusted net loss(1) of approximately $3.7 million, and adjusted EBITDA(1) of $35.5 million.  
   Kevin Crutchfield, Intrepid's Chief Executive Officer commented: "I  want to thank the Board, Matt, and the rest of the Intrepid team for  successfully guiding the Company through an uncertain period during much  of last year. They did an exceptional job and I'm excited to help build  on what Intrepid accomplished in 2024.  
   When I joined in December, my primary directive was clear: ensure we  deliver on the previously established strategic priorities that will  position Intrepid for long-term success. Related to these efforts, I'm  very pleased to share that our 2024 potash production increased by over  30% compared to 2023 and our Trio® sales volumes of 254  thousand tons was a company record. The higher levels of production  delivered the expected decreases to our unit economics in potash and  Trio®, with the benefits being most pronounced in the fourth  quarter. Even with the backdrop of lower potash prices, our focus on our  core business helped drive better margins in the second half of the  year, with our second half adjusted EBITDA of approximately $18.5  million being roughly double the same prior year figure.  
   Overall, we're optimistic on the outlook. Over the past five months,  key crops have rallied higher from their August lows, while potash  prices have started to move higher due to the balanced global potash  supply fundamentals and strong in-season demand during spring  application. Looking ahead in 2025, we plan to build off the significant  improvements in potash production we saw in 2024 while also maintaining  our focus on operational efficiencies and cost controls for further  margin improvement."

     |        In the fourth quarter of 2024, our potash sales increased $0.3 million  compared to the same prior year period, as a 12 thousand ton increase in  sales volumes was mostly offset by a 20% decrease in our average net  realized sales price per ton(1). The increased sales volumes were a result of the higher production related to our potash asset revitalization process.  
   Our fourth quarter potash production of 117 thousand tons brought our  full-year 2024 production to 295 thousand tons, which compares to 79  thousand tons and 224 thousand tons, respectively, in the same prior  year periods. The higher potash production was primarily driven by  higher brine grades and recovery at HB, as well as an accelerated start  to production in the second half of 2024.  
   Full-year 2024 potash sales decreased $31.0 million, or 24%, compared to  2023, as our potash average net realized sales price per ton(1)  decreased 19%, combined with a 7% decrease in potash tons sold. We sold  fewer tons of potash in 2024 compared to 2023, as we began 2024 with  less inventory of potash to sell due to lower potash production from our  HB and Wendover facilities during the second half of 2023.  
   Potash cost of goods sold decreased $13.5 million, or 14%, in 2024,  compared to 2023, due to a 7% decrease in potash tons sold and a 32%  increase in potash production in 2024 compared to 2023, which decreased  our per ton production costs. A significant portion of our production  costs are fixed and an increase in tons produced results in lower per  ton production costs.  
   During 2024, we recorded $4.0 million in lower of cost or net realizable  value inventory adjustments for certain potash products as our weighted  average carry cost per ton exceeded our expected net realizable value  per potash ton. In 2023, we recorded $2.7 million in lower of cost or  net realizable value inventory adjustments.  
   Our potash segment gross margin decreased $17.6 million in 2024, compared to 2023, due to the factors discussed above.

     |        In the fourth quarter of 2024, our Trio® segment sales  increased $2.4 million compared to the same prior year period, driven by  a five thousand ton increase in sales volumes and a 13% increase in our  average net realized sales price per ton(1).  
   Our fourth quarter Trio® production of 67 thousand tons  brought our full-year 2024 production to 251 thousand tons, which  compares to 57 thousand tons and 216 thousand tons, respectively, in the  same prior year periods. The higher Trio® production was primarily driven by higher ore grades and recovery, as well by better efficiencies from the continuous miners.  
   Our total Trio® segment sales increased $3.2 million, or 3%, in 2024, as compared to 2023. Our Trio®  sales increased $8.4 million, or 9%, in 2024, as compared to 2023, as  we sold 11% more tons partially offset by a 3% decrease in our average  net realized sales price per ton(1). Our Trio®  segment byproduct sales decreased $5.2 million in 2024 compared to 2023,  as we increased the volume of water used for injection at our HB plant  and we sold fewer barrels of water from our Caprock water rights. Sales  volumes increased in 2024 compared to 2023, as we sold more Trio® tons into row crop markets, which was primarily driven by the solid sulfate value of Trio®.  
   Our Trio® segment cost of goods sold decreased 6% in 2024, compared to 2023. While we sold 11% more Trio® tons  in 2024 compared to 2023, our production costs decreased approximately  20%, which was primarily driven by an approximately $6.8 million  decrease in labor expenses. Our labor costs decreased in 2024 compared  to 2023, as we operated fewer shifts at our East mine.  
   In 2024, we did not record any lower of cost or net realizable value inventory adjustments in Trio®. In 2023, we recorded $3.8 million in lower of cost or net realizable value inventory adjustments.  
   Our Trio® segment gross margin increased $8.4 million in 2024, compared 2023, due to the factors discussed above.

     |        In the fourth quarter of 2024, our oilfield solutions segment sales  decreased by $3.5 million compared to the same prior year period,  primarily due to the timing of water sales. In 2024, our oilfield  solutions segment sales increased 16% compared to 2023, driven by an  increase of $4.0 million in water sales and an increase of $0.1 million  in brine water sales, partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease in  sales of other products and services.  
   Demand for brine water remained strong in 2024 due to continued oil and  gas activity in the Permian Basin near Intrepid South. Our other  products and services sales decreased in 2024, compared to 2023, due to a  decrease in surface use and easement sales. Surface use and easement  sales fluctuate based on the timing of recognizing sales from the  various performance obligations contained in the underlying agreements.  
   Our oilfield solutions cost of goods sold increased 13% in 2024 compared  to 2023, as we purchased more third-party water for resale to meet the  demand for the large frac completed on Intrepid South in the third  quarter of 2024. Gross margin increased $1.4 million, or 25%, in 2024  compared to 2023, due to the factors described above.

     |        INTREPID POTASH, INC.  UNAUDITED NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS  FOR THE THREE AND TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023  (In thousands, except per share amounts)  
   To supplement Intrepid's consolidated financial statements, which are  prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Intrepid uses several  non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and evaluate its performance.  These non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted net loss, adjusted  net loss per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA, and average net realized  sales price per ton. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be  considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the  financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In  addition, because the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures  varies among companies, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be  comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.  
   Intrepid believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful  information to investors for analysis of its business. Intrepid uses  these non-GAAP financial measures as one of its tools in comparing  period-over-period performance on a consistent basis and when planning,  forecasting, and analyzing future periods. Intrepid believes these  non-GAAP financial measures are used by professional research analysts  and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations  of companies in the potash mining industry. Many investors use the  published research reports of these professional research analysts and  others in making investment decisions.  
   Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Diluted Share  
   Adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per diluted share are calculated  as net loss or net loss per diluted share adjusted for certain items  that impact the comparability of results from period to period, as set  forth in the reconciliation below. Intrepid considers these non-GAAP  financial measures to be useful because they allow for period-to-period  comparisons of its operating results excluding items that Intrepid  believes are not indicative of its fundamental ongoing operations.

     |        Average Potash and Trio® Net Realized Sales Price per Ton  
   Average net realized sales price per ton for potash is calculated as  potash segment sales less potash segment byproduct sales and potash  freight costs and then dividing that difference by the number of tons of  potash sold in the period. Likewise, average net realized sales price  per ton for Trio® is calculated as Trio® segment sales less Trio® segment byproduct sales and Trio® freight costs and then dividing that difference by Trio®  tons sold. Intrepid considers average net realized sales price per ton  to be useful, and believe it to be useful for investors, because it  shows Intrepid's potash and Trio® average per-ton pricing  without the effect of certain transportation and delivery costs. When  Intrepid arranges transportation and delivery for a customer, it  includes in revenue and in freight costs the costs associated with  transportation and delivery. However, some of Intrepid's customers  arrange for and pay their own transportation and delivery costs, in  which case these costs are not included in Intrepid's revenue and  freight costs. Intrepid uses average net realized sales price per ton as  a key performance indicator to analyze potash and Trio® sales and price trends.

     |        Adjusted EBITDA  
   Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization  (or adjusted EBITDA) is calculated as net loss adjusted for certain  items that impact the comparability of results from period to period, as  set forth in the reconciliation below. Intrepid considers adjusted  EBITDA to be useful because the measure reflects Intrepid's operating  performance before the effects of certain non-cash items and other items  that Intrepid believes are not indicative of its core operations.  Intrepid uses adjusted EBITDA to assess operating performance.
