How to read these numbers

Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right.

Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.

No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.

Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.

Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.

Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

is it reasonable to assume some average around $400 per metric ton for sulfur cost in 1Q

Cost PressureMarginTranscript · FY2025 Q4 →
Show response

Bodine noted sulfur in COGS may actually increase from Q1 to Q2 as higher-cost purchases flow through inventory. Luciano confirmed Fertilizantes EBITDA will improve from Q4 as Uberaba production normalizes and distribution margins expand. Araxa idle cost running approximately $10M/month hitting EBITDA. Product mix seasonality (more nitrogen, less performance products) affects Q1/Q4 but $50M is not representative.
