The main question: the P/E is near the low end of its own history, higher than only 13% of past readings, but results are getting worse. A low multiple can stay low until the quarters turn. ## What is the Intrepid Potash share price today? Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s share price was $30.75 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 15.9% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $25 and $47, and at that close it sat 27% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 7 weeks running. Over the last 1 year the share price moved −12% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 18 September 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Intrepid Potash pay? Intrepid Potash, Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Intrepid Potash on? Intrepid Potash is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Intrepid Potash profitable? Intrepid Potash, Inc. earned $15.6 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +377.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $11.2 M. Over 4 years profit has grown −54.0% a year on average. That is 29.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $3.3 M. 7 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does Intrepid Potash make, and is it growing? Intrepid Potash, Inc. reported $52.6 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −1.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 1.6% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $238 M. The last four reported quarters add to $234 M. FY25 revenue was $238 M, +16.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +8.3% on average, against 1.6% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +7.5%, against +7.3% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Intrepid Potash keep? Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s operating margin was 2.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.8 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between −1.6% and 35.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.8 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +8.3 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Intrepid Potash's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 67% of Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so most of the profit is real cash. In FY25 it brought in $55.8 M of operating cash against $11.2 M of profit. After $30.2 M of spending on assets, $25.5 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Intrepid Potash's cash go? Intrepid Potash, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $134 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 18.8% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $134 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Intrepid Potash's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s P/E is 16.8×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 13% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 33.5×, over 10 months of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: the multiple is low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Intrepid Potash business getting better or worse? Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. The latest quarter’s profit includes a one-off item bigger than the normal business, so the profit line is shown but does not count in this reading. One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Intrepid Potash earn on its capital? Intrepid Potash, Inc. earned a ROE of 2% in FY25. That is up from a low of −45% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 5.3 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 4.7% net margin and 0.38× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 4.7% net margin × 0.38× asset turnover × 1.29× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 2.3% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 6.1% − 11.4% = −5.3 percentage points. The 11.4% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 6.1% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 4.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Intrepid Potash have too much debt? Intrepid Potash, Inc. has total debt of $3.2 M against shareholder equity of $515 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.01× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.01 in FY21 to 0.01 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Intrepid Potash shareholding pattern? 3.7% of Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 2.1 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Intrepid Potash from balance-sheet trouble? For Intrepid Potash, Inc., the Z-score is 2.59. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.59 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Intrepid Potash rank in its industry? 46.3 out of 100, rank 6 of 11 in Agricultural Inputs, with 67% of the evidence available. Intrepid Potash, Inc. scores 46.3 out of 100 against the 11 companies it is compared with in Agricultural Inputs, ranking 6. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 17.3 + 7.1 + 10 + 11.9 = 46.3. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Intrepid Potash compared with? Intrepid Potash ranks 6 of 11 Agricultural Inputs companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 46.3 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Jun 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

## What else do people ask about Intrepid Potash? ### What were Intrepid Potash's latest quarterly results? Intrepid Potash, Inc. reported revenue of $52.6 M and net profit of $15.6 M for the Jun 2026 quarter. Revenue fell 1.5% and profit rose 377.4% compared with a year earlier. Earnings per share were $1.17. The operating margin was 2.5%, 0.8 percentage points lower than a year earlier (as of 3 November 2026). ### What is Intrepid Potash's market cap? Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s market capitalisation is $407 M at a stock price of $30.75. Market cap is the share price times the number of shares, so it changes whenever the price moves (as of 3 November 2026). ### How is Intrepid Potash performing? Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s latest readings are below. In its latest quarter, revenue fell 1.5% and profit rose 377.4% compared with a year earlier. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, for 7 weeks running. This describes what the data did, not a rating (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will Intrepid Potash's stock price go up? This page does not forecast Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s stock price. What it shows instead: the stock price is $30.75. Its P/E of 16.8× is higher than 13% of its own last 1 years. Nobody can reliably say which way a price will move, and this site does not try (as of 3 November 2026). ### Where is Intrepid Potash in its business cycle? Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s FY25 operating margin was 8.3%, against a 5-year range of −1.6% to 35.0%: the middle of its own range, neither a peak nor a low. The latest quarter was 2.5%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 3 November 2026). ### What could break the Intrepid Potash story? The main question: the P/E is near the low end of its own history, higher than only 13% of past readings, but results are getting worse. A low multiple can stay low until the quarters turn. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Intrepid Potash a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: Intrepid Potash, Inc.'s P/E is near the low end of its own history, higher than only 13% of past readings, and its quarterly results are still getting worse. The main open question: whether results start to improve. Every number on this page is worked out by code from the published figures, with no forecasts and no price opinions (as of 3 November 2026). This is research, not advice. We’re not SEBI-registered.
