Additionally, Mosaic produces K-Mag, a unique double sulfate of potash magnesia. In potash, the company is a key producer, supplying compound fertilizers, animal feed, industrial applications, de-icing, and water softener regeneration. Mosaic also provides nitrogen-based nutrients and services, and engages in procurement and resale of fertilizers. Customers range from wholesale distributors to individual farmers. Financially, Mosaic has a market cap of approximately $7.3 billion, a price-to-earnings ratio of 115.3, and a dividend yield of 3.8%. The company employs around 13,249 full-time staff across six countries. With a focus on sustainable and efficient production, Mosaic aims to help the world grow food while maintaining a reliable domestic foundation for agriculture.

Operator: Good morning, and welcome to The Mosaic Company's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] And now I'll turn it over to Mr. Paul Massoud. Please go ahead.
Paul Massoud: Thank you, and welcome to our second quarter 2026 earnings call. Opening comments will be provided by Bruce Bodine, President and Chief Executive Officer; Luciano Siani Pires, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer will review financial results. We will then welcome Jenny Wang, Executive Vice President, Commercial, to join Bruce and Luciano as we open the floor for questions.

Unless we specifically state otherwise, statements regarding these measures refer to our adjusted non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these measures to our most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in our earnings release. Now I'd like to turn the call over to Bruce.
