"We continued to deliver strong operational and financial performance during Q2 2021, resulting in H1 2021 adjusted EBITDA at Conda of $61.9 million and $54.3 million on a consolidated basis," said G. David Delaney, CEO of Itafos.
"Our H1 2021 consolidated results exceeded our previously issued H1 2021 guidance range of $45-50 million, reflecting the continued strength of the agriculture and fertilizer market fundamentals along with our solid operational performance. We expect these positive trends to continue and are raising our full year guidance for 2021 accordingly."
"We are also pleased to announce that we have closed a refinancing of our existing secured term loan debt and amendments to our primary remaining debt facilities. This refinancing extends the maturity of our debt at a lower interest rate while providing flexibility to deleverage our balance sheet with the cash flows of the business."
