“The CF Industries team delivered strong results in the first half of 2023, as we ran our plants well and navigated this year’s just-in-time buying pattern,” said Tony Will, president and chief executive officer, CF Industries Holdings, Inc. “We believe North American nitrogen channel inventories were drawn down significantly during the spring application season, setting up a positive demand dynamic in the second half of 2023.
“Longer term, forward global energy curves continue to suggest attractive margin opportunities for our cost-advantaged network well into the foreseeable future. As a result, we expect to continue to drive strong cash generation and create long-term shareholder value through disciplined investments in growth opportunities and returning substantial capital to shareholders.”
