Intrepid Potash Inc. (NYSE:IPI) (“Intrepid”) today announced the following updates to its fertilizer pricing.

• Effective May 17, 2021, Intrepid increased its Trio^® price by $20 per ton on all product grades. Trio^® price is now posted at $100 per ton above the 2020 summer-fill value.
• In response to fill programs announced by competitors in early May, Intrepid increased its potash price by $20 per ton last week. Potash price is now posted at $150 per ton above the 2020 summer-fill value.

“Tightening supply and strong farmer economics have Intrepid on pace for record domestic deliveries of Trio^® in the first half of 2021.” said Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid's Executive Chairman, President, and CEO. “At today’s commodity prices, Trio^® continues to provide significant nutrient value to both row crops and chloride-sensitive crops such as citrus and potatoes. The potash fill program allowed for a limited order period for historic volumes and distributors are restocking warehouses ahead of what will likely be another strong fertilizer application in the second half of the year.”
