# Mosaic posts wider-than-expected third-quarter loss on sulfur and raw material costs

> Mosaic reported a third-quarter adjusted loss of $0.19 per share as higher raw-material costs and lower sales volumes weighed on results. Phosphate operations recorded a loss and reduced sales volumes, while the company lowered its full-year potash production forecast after problems at its Esterhazy mine; it also said high sulfur costs had led it to curtail phosphate production.

## Why it matters

Sulfur costs and curtailed phosphate output can constrain fertilizer supply, potentially supporting DAP prices. Lower sales volumes and weak downstream demand may temper that support.
