Company News
SugaROx, a crop biotechnology spin-out from Rothamsted Research and University of Oxford, has secured £2.5 million in strategic investment from The Mosaic Company. The funding will support international field trials, regulatory activities and commercial scale-up of the company's biostimulant based on trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P). T6P is a naturally occurring signalling molecule that regulates carbon allocation in plants. SugaROx has developed proprietary delivery technologies enabling these molecules to be applied through conventional agricultural spray systems. The products aim to improve crop yield, resilience and nutrient use efficiency. The investment is part of SugaROx's Series A round. The company plans to expand field evaluation programmes across multiple crops and environments, with commercial launches planned for the UK, Europe and North America between 2027 and 2030.
Mosaic Company announced it will idle its Araxá Mining and Chemical Complex and related mining activities at the Patrocínio Complex in Brazil as part of cost-reduction efforts. The company plans to pursue the sale of Araxá assets whilst continuing niobium development at Patrocínio. The idling will reduce annual phosphate production by approximately one million tonnes. Following a potential sale, Mosaic expects annual capital expenditure to decline by $20 to $30 million and operating expenses by $70 to $80 million. The company anticipates recording a pre-tax book impact of $350 to $400 million in the first quarter of 2026, including asset impairments and severance costs. The decision reflects Mosaic's focus on capital allocation discipline, according to CEO Bruce Bodine. Workforce reductions will occur at both sites.

The Mosaic Company fell for a third day on Friday, slashing 9.96 percent to close at $23.59 apiece, as investors took path from Bank of America's (BofA) downgraded rating for its stock amid the impact of the ongoing tensions in the Middle East. In a market note, BofA turned neutral for The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS), after issuing a "buy" recommendation previously, citing inflation in raw materials due to the Iran war. While BofA remains bullish about the phosphates market, with prices expected to remain elevated over time, the war in the Middle East could cause inflationary pressures on sulfur and ammonia, which could dent The Mosaic Company's (NYSE:MOS) earnings growth and cash flow moving forward. In other news, The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS) earlier this month announced efforts to ramp up expansion into rare earths production with its planned development of the Uberaba mine site in Brazil. The initiative will be made through its subsidiary, Mosaic Fertilizantes P&K Limitada, in partnership with Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd. The two parties have already completed an economic assessment for the site, which indicated a processing potential of 2.7 million tons of phosphogypsum per year; 1,900 tons of separated neodymium and praseodymium oxide; and 600 tons of a samarium, europium, and gadolinium product rich in medium and heavy rare earth elements.

The Mosaic Company has affirmed a quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share and announced plans to jointly develop the Uberaba rare earths project in Brazil with Rainbow Rare Earths, targeting rare earth oxide production from phosphogypsum by 2030. Whilst the rare earths partnership could modestly diversify future earnings, Mosaic's business remains anchored in phosphate and potash, where fertilizer pricing and environmental costs are the primary near-term drivers. The project aims to extract additional value from existing phosphate assets, though meaningful contributions remain years away. Analysts project Mosaic will reach $13.1 billion in revenue and $851.3 million in earnings by 2028, requiring 5.2% annual revenue growth. Some optimistic forecasts estimate $14.4 billion in revenue and $1.1 billion in earnings by 2028.
DOJ launches investigation into fertilizer price fixing. Corn farmers across the nation welcomed news this week that the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is actively investigating whether several of the country's largest fertilizer producers colluded to raise prices on American farmers. According to a Bloomberg report, the DOJ's Antitrust Division is examining the pricing practices of Nutrien, Mosaic, CF Industries, Koch, and Yara International for potential civil and criminal violations. Together, these companies control the overwhelming majority of nitrogen, phosphate, and potash fertilizer sold in the United States. The investigation is a significant development for farm families who have been sounding the alarm on fertilizer market concentration for years. In recent months, that call has grown louder. USDA Deputy Secretary Stephen Vaden publicly called Nutrien and Mosaic a "duopoly" earlier this year, and state corn grower organizations - including TCPA and the Iowa Corn Growers Association - have pressed the Attorney General directly for transparency on the department's progress in holding these companies accountable. "We are grateful to see this step forward," Hunt said. "Farmers across this country have been dealing with artificially inflated input costs for far too long, and an investigation will send a clear signal that those days may be numbered. Our farm families deserve a fair and competitive marketplace, and we are encouraged by the reports that the DOJ is working to deliver one." For Texas farmers heading into another planting season with razor-thin margins, this investigation represents a meaningful step forward. While commodity prices have softened, the cost of the nutrients essential to growing a crop has remained stubbornly and artificially high. That squeeze threatens not just individual farm operations, but the long-term stability of its domestic food supply. TCPA will continue to monitor the progress of this investigation and advocate for the fair, competitive marketplace that America's farm families deserve.
