Mosaic set for Q2 earnings after Wall Street expects sharply lower EPS
Analysts project Mosaic will report diluted EPS of $0.11, down 78.4% year over year, as weak phosphate demand in North America and pressure from imports and credit conditions weigh on results.
The Mosaic Company, known for concentrated phosphate and potash crop nutrients, is scheduled to release its Q2 2026 earnings report on Tuesday, Aug. 4, after the market closes, according to a Yahoo Finance earnings preview.
Ahead of the release, analysts expect diluted EPS of $0.11, a 78.4% decline from $0.51 in the year-ago quarter. For the full year, they project EPS of $0.83, down 63.4% from fiscal 2025, with expectations for a rebound in fiscal 2027.
The preview cites a track record of earnings misses, noting Mosaic has missed Wall Street's EPS estimates in three of its last four quarters. It also points to operational and market pressures, including weak phosphate demand in North America as farmers pared fertilizer purchases, and challenges in Brazil tied to tighter credit and increased competition from Chinese imports.
Analysts are largely taking a wait-and-see stance, with an overall Hold rating. Among 19 analysts covering the stock, seven rate it a Strong Buy, nine rate it a Hold, and two recommend a Strong Sell, with a mean price target of $26.11, implying 13.3% upside from the current market price.
