Consolidated Results, Management Commentary, & Outlook
In the third quarter of 2023, Intrepid generated sales of $54.5 million, a 27% decrease from third quarter 2022 sales of $74.8 million. Consolidated gross margin totaled $0.5 million, while the net loss totaled $7.2 million, or a loss of $0.56 per diluted share, which compares to third quarter 2022 net income of $13.1 million, or $0.97 per diluted share. The Company delivered adjusted EBITDA of $2.2 million, down from $27.0 million in the same prior year period, with the lower profitability primarily being driven by lower pricing for our key products and an increase in our cost of goods sold. Our third quarter 2023 net realized sales prices for potash and Trio® averaged $433 and $298 per ton, respectively, which compares to $734 and $488 per ton, respectively, in the third quarter of 2022.
Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid's Executive Chairman and CEO commented: "Our third quarter results were highlighted by strong sales of potash and Trio® and our volumes for the first nine months of the year remain well ahead of last year's pace. Farmer economics continue to be supported by elevated futures prices compared to historical levels, while attractive fertilizer pricing in the eyes of growers remains a key driver of demand. Since early-August, we have seen modest improvements in market pricing for potash and all signs point to a robust fall application season. Moreover, our logistics and transportation advantages, as well as diversified sales into other markets like feed, continue to help drive our netbacks to levels above industry benchmark pricing.
While our financial results have experienced headwinds as we work through higher carrying costs for our potash and Trio®, we remain focused on improving our potash unit economics by means of higher production. On this point, we've demonstrated very strong project execution throughout the year and recently commissioned our latest undertaking at HB, the Eddy Shaft Brine Extraction project. This project serves as an important bridge to higher potash production in the near-term as we are already extracting high-grade brine that will start to meaningfully contribute to product tons starting in the second half of next year.
We want to be clear that the capital spending for our potash projects at HB, Moab, and Wendover is designed to have a long-term, sustained impact on returning our potash production to historical highs, but we do have the added benefit of also being able to target near-term tons as we go through the normal brine injection, extraction, and production cycle."

Potash segment sales in the third quarter of 2023 decreased 35% to $27.6 million when compared to the same period in 2022. The lower revenue was driven by a 41% decrease in our average net realized sales price per ton to $433, which compares to $734 per ton in the same prior year period. For the first nine months ended September 30, 2023, our potash segment sales decreased 14% to $127.4 million, with our higher sales volumes of 213 thousand tons partially offsetting a 34% decrease in our average net realized price to $474 per ton.
For the third quarter of 2023, segment gross margin totaled $3.4 million, which compares to $19.9 million in the third quarter of 2022, and for the first nine months ended September 30, 2023, segment gross margin totaled $30.7 million, which compares to $73.9 million in the prior year period. The lower gross margin figures were primarily driven by an increase in segment cost of goods sold - which was due to higher sales volumes and an increase in our weighted average carrying cost per ton - as well as lower potash pricing in the first nine months of 2023 compared to the first nine months of 2022.
Potash production totaled 43 thousand tons in the third quarter of 2023, which compares to 36 thousand tons produced in the same prior year period, while potash production for the first nine months ended September 30, 2023 totaled 145 thousand tons, a decrease from 164 thousand tons in the same prior year period.

Trio® segment sales of $22.0 million for the third quarter of 2023 were 8% lower compared to the same prior year period driven by a lower average net realized sales price per ton of $298, a decrease of 39% compared to the third quarter of 2022. This decrease was partially offset by Trio® sales volumes increasing by 33% to 52 thousand tons. For the first nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Trio® segment sales decreased 19% to $81.1 million, which was driven by a 32% decrease in our average net realized price to $329 per ton.
For the third quarter of 2023, segment gross deficit totaled $4.3 million, which compares to gross margin of $6.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, and for the first nine months ended September 30, 2023, segment gross deficit totaled $1.6 million, which compares to gross margin of $35.7 million in the same prior year period. The lower gross margin figures were primarily driven by an increase in segment cost of goods sold and lower pricing. Moreover, we recorded a lower of cost or net realizable value inventory adjustment of $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Trio® production totaled 52 thousand tons in the third quarter of 2023, which was flat compared to the prior year, while Trio® production for the first nine months ended September 30, 2023 totaled 159 thousand tons, a decrease from 175 thousand tons in the same prior year period. During the third quarter of 2023, we experienced unplanned downtime during underground mining and at the production mill, with these issues resulting in an estimated production loss of approximately nine thousand tons. During the first quarter of 2023, our East Facility experienced net unplanned downtime of approximately eight days which also contributed to the lower production during the first nine months of 2023.

Compared to the same period in 2022, our oilfield solutions segment sales decreased $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, due to a $4.2 million decrease in water sales, partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in surface use, rights-of-way, and easement revenues. While oil and gas activities near our Intrepid South property remained strong during the third quarter of 2023, our water sales decreased as we purchased less third-party water for resale in the third quarter of 2023 when compared to the third quarter of 2022.
Our cost of goods sold decreased $4.5 million, or 56%, for the third quarter of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, mainly due to decreased water transportation costs and less third-party water purchased for resale. Our gross margin for the third quarter of 2023 increased $1.0 million compared to the third quarter of 2022.
For the first nine months of 2023, our oilfield solutions segment sales decreased $8.7 million in the first nine months of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due to a $7.9 million decrease in water sales, and a $1.3 million decrease in surface use, rights-of-way and easement revenues, partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in brine water sales.
Liquidity
During the third quarter of 2023, cash flow used in operations was $0.3 million, while cash used in investing activities was $15.9 million. As of October 31, 2023, we had approximately $7 million in cash and cash equivalents, $4 million in outstanding borrowings, and $146 million available to borrow under our revolving credit facility, for total liquidity of approximately $153 million.

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) income, adjusted net (loss) income 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) Income and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income Per Diluted Share
Adjusted net (loss) income and adjusted net (loss) income per diluted share are calculated as net (loss) income or net (loss) income 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.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) is calculated as net (loss) income 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, and believe it to be useful for investors, 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.

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.
