GRUPA AZOTY – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Adverse impact of rising prices of energy commodities (coal and natural gas up over

30%) and carbon emission allowances

  • Unfavourable weather conditions in the first quarter, leading to reduced fertilizer

application and increased supply in the second quarter

  • High inventory levels and increased supply as the key drivers behind

fertilizer prices

Ammonium nitrate

  • No significant increase in ammonium nitrate production

capacity is expected by 2020;

  • The production capacity growth that was seen in Central

and Western Europe between 2015 and 2020 was mainly attributable to Nitrogenmuvek (2017) and YARA (ammonium nitrate, technical grade) (2017). In Belarus, the ammonium nitrate production capacity rose after an

  • bsolete production unit was replaced by a new one.

Urea

  • In the Middle East, between 2015 and 2020 production

capacity grew in Iran;

  • The growing trend will continue until 2020;
  • No other significant production capacity hikes are

expected in the above countries/regions.

OUTLOOK: OUTLOOK:

  • In H2 2018, prices of agricultural products are expected to increase due to the deterioration of their balance in Poland and the EU (droughts in H1

2018).

  • Demand for nitrogen fertilisers in Q3 2018 (harvest period) is estimated to be low. A slight revival is expected in September (autumn application

season).

  • In H2 2018, prices of nitrogen fertilisers are forecast to be steadily rising, the growth being an effect of the largest players’ pricing policies, the

prospects of urea price growth on global markets, and the rising price of natural gas (used in production of nitrogen fertilizers).

  • A negative supply-demand balance in urea on global markets in H2 2018 will support urea prices. The demand for urea in Brazil and India and the

limited availability of the fertilizer in China and Iran will also play a role.

OUTLOOK: OUTLOOK:

  • DAP: The shutdown of the Mosaic unit will be a balancing factor to the launch of additional capacities in the Middle East and North Africa and will

stabilise the global supply/demand balance.

  • NPK: the level of demand expected to be seen in Europe in Q4 and the cost pressure from energy prices will push up NPK prices in the region.
