On August 17, 2026, The Mosaic Company (the “Company”) closed its sale of $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.350% senior notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”), $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.650% senior notes due 2034 (the “2034 Notes”) and $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.900% senior notes due 2036 (the “2036 Notes” and, together with the 2031 Notes and the 2034 Notes, the “Offered Securities”) pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement dated August 10, 2026, among the Company and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., BofA Securities, Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named in Schedule A thereto (the “Underwriting Agreement”). The Offered Securities were issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of October 24, 2011 between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (as successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association), as trustee (the “Indenture”).

The Company expects to receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $1,983.3 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts and its estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the proceeds from this offering (1) to fund the purchase price for the previously announced tender offers commenced by the Company on August 10, 2026 to purchase up to $1,400,000,000 aggregate purchase price of the outstanding (i) $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.050% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), (ii) $147,100,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.300% Debentures due 2028 issued by Mosaic Global Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “2028 Debentures”), (iii) $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.375% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and (iv) $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.350% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes” and, together with the 2027 Notes, 2028 Notes and 2028 Debentures, the “Existing Notes”) (each, a “Tender Offer” and, collectively, the “Tender Offers”) validly tendered and accepted for purchase in the Tender Offers, including the payment of accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the settlement date for the Tender Offers, fees and expenses related thereto, and (2) for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment, repurchase or refinancing of outstanding indebtedness from time to time. Pending such uses, the Company may invest the net proceeds in short-term investments, including cash, cash equivalents and/or marketable securities.

The Tender Offers are being made only upon the terms and conditions set forth in an Offer to Purchase dated August 10, 2026. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell the Offered Securities or the Existing Notes.
