Bulls Say
Financial PerformanceFQ3 EBITDA was ~$41M, which beat consensus/BMO of $38/$36M.
GuidancePlant Nutrition guidance was raised ~$5M on higher volumes and better margins.
Operational StrategyCMP decided to ramp back up the Goderich mine, likely increasing production to two 12-hour shifts, seven days a week, which suggests a strategic move to deploy as much salt as possible.
Bears Say
Inventory And Balance SheetManagement continues to work to normalize salt inventory, improve working capital and cost performance, and fix the balance sheet, though it will take time.
Pricing And MarginsIt's unclear if ~2-4% gross rock salt price increases provide clear margin expansion.
Tariff StrategyThere is a concern about tariff protection strategy, indicating potential risk if the tariff dynamic worsens.
