It owns each of these facilities and properties. The Company’s Plant City phosphate fertilizer complex is a phosphate fertilizer facility in North America. At one million tons per year, its phosphoric acid capacity represents approximately 10% of the total United States capacity. During 2010, all of Plant City's phosphoric acid was converted into ammonium phosphates (DAP and MAP), representing approximately 14% of United States capacity for ammonium phosphate fertilizer products.
CF Holdings competes with Agrium, Koch Nitrogen, Terra Industries, Mosaic, Simplot and Potash Corp.
Products
CF Industries Holdings, Inc., through its CF Industries, Inc. subsidiary, is one of North America’s largest manufacturers and
distributors of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer products. Nitrogen fertilizer is essential to healthy plant growth and high crop yields,
especially for corn, cotton, and wheat. Phosphate fertilizer helps plants generate necessary sugars, germinate seeds, and build
strong root structures. The company also produces nitrogen products for industrial and environmental applications.
Primary nitrogen products produced by CF Industries are:
• Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN)
Solution
• Anhydrous Ammonia
• Granular Urea
• Ammonium Nitrate
• Other Urea
Primary phosphate fertilizers produced by CF
Industries are:
• Diammonium Phosphate (DAP)
• Monoammonium Phosphate (MAP)
Custom fertilizer products include Aqua
Ammonia, UAN with Sulfur, DAP – Turf grade,
and others.
Man-made fertilizers have had a tremendous impact on farm productivity and food availability. In 1950, for example, the average
U.S. farmer produced enough food to feed 27 people. Since then, thanks to advances in fertilizers, seeds, herbicides, pesticides, and
farming practices, average yields of all crops have increased by 55 percent. The average farmer now produces enough food to feed
more than 120 people. This unprecedented improvement in crop yields has had important environmental benefits, too, significantly
reducing the amount of land required to feed a growing world population.
Distribution
CF Industries operates an integrated manufacturing and distribution system, providing agricultural and industrial customers a reliable
source of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers. The company manufactures nitrogen products at seven large complexes, located in
Courtright, ON, Donaldsonville, LA, Medicine Hat, AB, Port Neal, IA, Verdigris, OK, Woodward, OK, and Yazoo City, MS. It
manufactures phosphate at mining and production operations in Central Florida. It distributes products through one of the industry’s
largest networks of terminals and warehouses, many of them in Midwestern states with excellent access to rail, water, and pipeline
transport. CF Industries also serves international customers through KEYTRADE AG, a leading global fertilizer trading company in
which it acquired a 50 percent interest in 2007, and owns 50% joint ventures in the U.K. and The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago.
• Its Courtright, ON Nitrogen Complex produces a full line of nitrogen fertilizers and industrial products, including anhydrous
ammonia, ammonium nitrate, urea, and urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) solution.

News
A year after buyout, Terra does little to aid CF's shares
NEW YORK, March 2 (Reuters) - CF Industries Holdings eliminated a key rival when it bought Terra Industries last year, but so far surging corn prices rather than the deal's benefits have driven the fertilizer producer's stock. CF makes nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers, both crucial material for farmers. The company spent most of 2009 and part of 2010 in hot pursuit of Terra (TRAQP.PK), all the while fending off a hostile bid from Canada's Agrium (AGU.TO) (AGU.N). Ultimately, CF emerged the winner of the so-called fertilizer wars when it clinched Terra for $4.6 billion in cash and stock, more than double the initial offer. [ID:nLDE62B0AA] The deal made CF the world's second-largest producer of nitrogen, after Norway's Yara (YAR.OL), by increasing its number of fertilizer plants to seven from two. The buyout also brought access to pipelines and barges in the U.S. Midwest, the world's largest corn-growing region. But the acquisition has yet to lift CF's stock above pre-recession levels, in part because Wall Street is less focused on Terra's benefits and more concerned with the price of corn, which unlike soy requires nitrogen fertilizer. "Without a doubt, the impact of the Terra deal has been relatively minor," said Alan Rowsell of Standard Life Investments, which owns about 910,000 shares of CF. "The key driver for CF's stock over the last year has been the rise in the price of corn." Corn futures Cc1 on the Chicago Board of Trade have doubled since March 11, 2010, the day before the Terra deal closed, and were trading around $7.12 a bushel at midday Wednesday. CF shares have climbed 32 percent during the same period. By comparison, shares of Potash Corp (POT.TO) are up 54 percent, shares of Agrium have jumped 38 percent, and shares of Mosaic Co (MOS.N) have added 41 percent. CF shares were trading at $136.40 at midday Wednesday. "I don't see any reason why this stock couldn't have gone to $140 without this (Terra) deal," CLSA analyst Mark Connelly said. "I don't think this deal created an ounce of value." CF Chief Executive Steve Wilson disagreed, saying shareholders should continue to expect benefits from the buyout. "We believe there's more good news to come as the full realization of identified synergies, the benefits of our rapid debt repayment, and current fertilizer market conditions get reflected in financial markets," Wilson said in a statement to Reuters. COMMODITY PLAY Given its deep connection to agriculture, CF is often seen by hedge funds and other short-term investors as a pure bet on corn demand. That partly explains the interest in the stock from BlackRock, Vanguard, FMR and other hedge funds, most of whom tend to trade on short-term developments rather than long-term fundamentals. CF controls about two-thirds of the ammonia supply in the heart of the U.S. corn belt. Urea and other nitrogen-based fertilizers come from ammonia. In the past year ammonia prices have increased 62 percent and urea prices have risen 20 percent, according to Green Markets, a fertilizer market research firm that tracks pricing. CF also mines phosphate fertilizer from Florida's fossil-rich "bone valley." In the past year prices for diammonium phosphate, known as DAP, have increased 35 percent, according to Green Markets. "There's some synergies from distribution in the U.S. corn belt from the deal that are undeniable," BCMI research analyst Chris Damas said. "Terra was a very good match because its plants are closer to customers." CF, based in a Chicago suburb, gets a boost from cheap North American natural gas NGc1, a key feedstock for nitrogen fertilizer. NYMEX prices for the fuel have dropped 19 percent in the past year. That's attractive to Wall Street, where many analysts expect natural gas prices to stay low for years given recent North American shale gas discoveries. "CF is in a better position because it's much more of a nitrogen play and can take advantage of low-cost feedstock here domestically," said Randy Hare of the Huntington New Economy Fund, which owns about 12,400 shares of CF. CF holds no similar advantage when it comes to corn prices. Higher corn prices help all fertilizer producers, and CF more than others because hedge funds like to pile in when they see prices rising. The inverse is true, as well. "If we believed corn prices were going to reduce meaningfully, we probably would reduce our position in CF," said Standard Life's Rowsell. No one can predict where corn prices will go, but food demand will grow in line with populations in China, India and other emerging economies. Corn supplies are also at historic lows, prompting farmers to plant more and use more fertilizer. Jeff Doppelt, who bought Terra stock at around $2 per share and watched it spike to around $50 before the CF buyout, unloaded some of his CF holdings when the stock was trading at $150 last month.
But he has no plans to sell his remaining 11,000 shares any time soon. "The overwhelming majority of the stock I'm holding," Doppelt said. "I definitely think CF could be a $200 stock."
